Where Are the Reinforcements? Someone Save Me!
Oh, right!
At this moment, taking advantage of Yuno's confusion, Dr. Mags reached into the pocket of his white coat and took out his trump card.
When Dr. Mags left Schicksal, she carried with her three vials of the latest version of HSN Serum that she had developed.
Now, after Dr. Mags took out one of the serums, he didn't hesitate to smash the test tube onto the vine. With the power of the HSN Serum, the vine was instantly 'melted'.
Upon seeing that the old man actually possessed the power to resist her, Yuno, who had been in a state of confusion, suddenly awoke from her daze.
"This, this is!"
"Little girl, I'm so sorry!"
At that moment, Dr. Mags took out two more vials of HSN Serum from her pocket and rushed directly towards Yuno.
Although he was immediately bound by the vines, in that instant, he threw the two vials of serum he was holding at the other party.
"Damn it! You human!"
After the two test tubes hit Yuno's feet and shattered instantly, the serum began to appear around Yuno's body.
Although the serum would certainly not be as potent as directly injecting it into Herrscher's body under these circumstances, Yuno still temporarily regained her consciousness due to the interference of the HSN Serum.
"How... how could I have had such a terrible thought?!"
Recalling the countless evil thoughts that had filled her mind, Yuno looked at the gem in front of her with a hint of apprehension.
But now, Yuno was so close to the Tranquility Gem, has lost her last chance.
This gem seemed to have its own consciousness. It suddenly flew towards Yuno and directly broke through the surface of Yuno's skin using the corrosive black mist.
Lin Yu, who had just arrived at the scene, saw that the Tranquility Gem was about to enter Yuno's body, and immediately accelerated the motorcycle to its top speed.
"Yuno! Get away from that monstrosity!"
But in the next instant...
The incredibly Honkai Energy transformed into a powerful shockwave, blowing his body away.
Lin Yu, who had blocked the shockwave thanks to Zero Knight's Honkai Energy shield, saw Yuno had merged with the gem, slowly floating into the air after the smoke cleared.
And the girl who appeared before him...
—It overlapped once again with the figure Lin Yu had seen in Changkong City in the past.
Chapter 152. Where are the reinforcements? Please come to the rescue!
Schicksal Headquarters
Otto, who was in his office, looked at the warning that suddenly appeared on the screen and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
Amber, who had not been informed of the plan by Otto, naturally had no idea what Otto was thinking.
Seeing the warning appear on the screen, Amber asked Otto with extreme anxiety.
"Lord Otto! The Fourth Honkai Outbreak has erupted in the area near Singapore!"
"However, we still can't contact Durandal or the members of the Blade of the Unbroken!"
"We can't even get in touch with Lord Ghost! This, this, this...!"
"Amber, don't panic."
Looking at the warning that appeared on the screen, Otto confidently spoke to Amber.
"Durandal had already arrived in the area near Singapore according to our instructions before we lost contact."
"As a user of the Divine Key, she would naturally notice the anomalies in the surroundings when there is a large-scale Honkai outbreak nearby."
At this moment, Otto truly felt that his recent plans had been going too smoothly.
Just as Otto had planned, the Fourth Honkai Outbreak successfully erupted near Singapore.
If Otto's prediction was wrong, then this outbreak of Honkai was clearly caused by that little girl named Yuno coming into contact with the Tranquility Gem.
Although Otto temporarily shelved his plan to 'resurrect others with the Herrscher of Death's after receiving a more successful plan from Otto, this does not mean that Otto would completely abandon this backup plan.
Yuno became the Herrscher of Death.
Bianca is currently on her way there.
If everything goes smoothly from here on out, after Bianca defeats Yuno and I bring her back to Schicksal Headquarters, I can use Feathered Dust to hypnotize her mind and suggest that she continue to trust me. Then, sooner or later, I will be able to uncover the true power of the Herrscher of Death.
However, there are three shortcomings in this plan.
First, look at the location of the Honkai Energy eruption; this place is clearly not yet in the core area of Singapore.
Secondly, the instantaneous Honkai Energy intensity at the core of this Honkai Energy eruption did indeed exceed 1000 HW, but the diffusion speed was far too slow.
For these two reasons, my plan to use the Honkai to make an example of Singapore is likely to fail.
As for the third point... sigh, Lin Yu.
Unfortunately, he happened to find out about it.
Although this young man has been promoted to A-Class, his authority is not yet sufficient to access information about this mission.
And my dear granddaughter...
After thinking of Theresa, Otto shook his head indulgently, immediately abandoning the conjecture that 'Theresa sent Lin Yu to Singapore'.
Theresa was already busy enough just being in charge of the security of the Far East Branch.
This incident...
Ah, Ryusuke's daughter is meddling in other people's business.
Although K423's journey to the central area of the massive Honkai could accelerate her awakening and my plans, it doesn't mean I'll condone such behavior.
After all, the fact that I sent Lin Yu on such a dangerous mission was enough for me to see that Ryusuke's daughter must have realized my intentions.
If I continue to let her continue her actions, she might continue to hinder my plans in other ways in the future.
Let's find some time to deal with this.
If you suddenly kill her, even Theresa will sense that something is wrong.
This time her crime doesn't warrant death; a slight punishment will suffice.
After all, Theresa still needs her.
If my plan continues to go smoothly, then the time when Theresa takes over as Bishop of Schicksal will not be far off.
As for Lin Yu...
Now, recalling the boy to whom he had poured his heart and soul, Otto felt a headache coming on.
Lin Yu can die, but he must die in front of K423.
However, given Lin Yu's personality, even if he brings K423, once the person senses something is wrong, he will definitely abandon K423 on the spot.
Just like when he forced K423 to leave his side and then injected the HSN Serum into the Herrscher of Thunder, I think there's an 80% chance he'll do the same.
But now, even though the Honkai Energy intensity of the Herrscher of Death after awakening has just reached the minimum threshold of 1000HW for Herrscher awakening Honkai Energy intensity, the Herrscher is still the Herrscher.
Admittedly, Lin Yu is much stronger than before, but that doesn't mean he can easily kill Herrscher.
He was able to seize the opportunity last time because Siegfried used 'Heavenly Fire: Unleashed' in Changkong City to weaken the Herrscher of Thunder.
And this time... even if Siegfried is in Singapore, can he really get to the scene before Lin Yu dies in battle?
At this stage, even if Otto had the idea of going to the front lines, it was already too late.
Fine, Lin Yu, let me see your current strength.
Let's treat this as a training exercise.
If Siegfried has already arrived in Singapore, he will definitely rush towards you after sensing the Honkai Energy fluctuations.
Bianca will do the same thing as her father.
You don't need to defeat the Herrscher; you just need to hold out for a few minutes to wait for powerful reinforcements.
But now, thinking about it carefully, I can't just sit here like this anymore.
After calculating the situation, Otto was shocked to discover that the scheme he had set up against World Serpent, Yuno, and Singapore had unknowingly become the prelude to the awakening of the Herrscher of the Void.
Originally, Lin Yu and K423 were not supposed to know about this.
But now, Lin Yu knows about this mission, and K423 and the Herrscher of Thunder also know about this mission.
The 'enemy' Siegfried awakened Sirin out of hatred, the Herrscher of Death and the Herrscher of Thunder offered as sacrifices to the Honkai Queen, and Lin Yu enabled K423 to complete its awakening...
I was just thinking of punishing Ryusuke's daughter, but now that I think about it, she unintentionally helped me set up a 'scheme'.
Everything has gone too smoothly, could it be...?
—Was this also a scheme secretly orchestrated by 'He'?
If Otto in the past only regarded the Honkai God as a tool that was 'powerful but still usable'.
So, after the Singapore incident, Otto has developed a slight sense of apprehension.
The Honkai God of the past were simply unmatched by Otto in terms of power.
As for wisdom... Otto asked a question, and then the other party imparted knowledge to him, which in Otto's view was that the other party clearly did not possess any particularly brilliant wisdom.
But things are different now.
Otto carried out his plan, but in a twist of Honkai, Otto plan actually helped the Honkai to grow even stronger.
Indeed, treating the Honkai God as a pawn is an incredibly arrogant thing to do.
He is not a chess piece, but a player playing against 'humans'.
Looking back now, it's clear that His plan was to impart that knowledge to me without targeting me, who harbored murderous intent.
I have been nurturing Honkai, letting it grow Honkai, and even after receiving its knowledge, I began to resurrect the Herrscher of the Void, allowing the birth of Lightning and pushing forward the awakening of Death...
What a cunning scheme!
If K423 really witnesses Lin Yu's death this time, then Lin Yu, who enabled K423 to complete her awakening, will become the catalyst for her despair.
After Siegfried and K423 became estranged, they actually fell behind Lin Yu in terms of progress, so my plan might not work.
If the Herrscher of the Void the Void absorbs the [Lightning] that is not yet fully unleashed, and awakens the [Death] which is not yet powerful enough, even if she is no match for Siegfried and Bianca working together, she can use her powers to escape the battlefield and become the most terrifying solo guerrilla in the world.
Hey, that's interesting.
Because of His scheme, whether Lin Yu can survive has become the deciding factor in whether the world will face an apocalyptic crisis.
From this perspective, I have indeed lost to Him.
Moreover, since He could calculate to this extent, then...
—What about the Oceania Branch?
At this moment, Otto, recalling his recent plans, suddenly began to feel that even the Oceania Branch was not safe.
The Oceania Branch has a rather special A-rank Valkyrie Wendy named Wendy.
Within this girl's body, Otto and Maki jointly implanted the [Wind of Desire], one of the Four Great Gems.
Because of the failed experiment, although the Wind of Desire merged with Wendy, it did not grant Wendy the power of the Herrscher of Wind.
Now, even if Otto wanted to remove the Wind of Desire, he would be unable to forcibly remove the gem because Wendy and the gem had merged.
Therefore, to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the turmoil in Singapore to launch a feint, Otto secretly dispatched Rita Roseweisse, who was supposed to be on an investigation mission, and a large number of Divine Machine troops to ambush Wendy near the Oceania Branch.
However, since He has already laid out the plan to this extent, then...
—Are there really no problems with the Oceania Branch?
Singapore border area
Within the border area of Singapore, Lin Yu, who was watching Yuno, had already assumed a fighting stance.
