If I had to say, if Cocolia's Father-class Mech were given a Herrscher Core, then the Celestial could unleash Herrscher- level combat power.

But the problem is, if they really had a core, they could have just thrown it into the Abyssal Eye and solved the problem. Why would they need that piece of junk?

The more Gray Serpent thought about it, the angrier he became, and the angrier he became, the more he thought about it. The person he hated most right now was not actually Otto.

It was Lin Yu who repeatedly thwarted his plans.

The first time, Lin Yu used the HSN Serum in Changkong City to help Raiden Mei's main personality regain consciousness.

This incident indirectly led to Otto taking away the Conquest of Thunder, which the World Serpent had the opportunity to possess.

The second time, Lin Yu defeated Chiyou in Shenzhou.

Although subsequent investigations revealed that Lin Yu's claim of defeating Chiyou was exaggerated, the mastermind behind this exaggeration was still the mastermind!

This defeat indirectly led to a series of unfortunate events recently, including the strict guarding of Chiyou's corpse and the capture of the Raven by Schicksal.

The third time, after Gray Serpent and Cocolia simultaneously dispatched their strongest forces, Lin Yu returned directly from Schicksal Headquarters and turned the tide by defeating a Simulated Herrscher.

Because of Lin Yu, Raven's rescue plan failed, which led Raven, who was unable to escape St. Freya Academy, to completely side with Schicksal in order to save her life.

After Raven betrayed World Serpent's information, Schicksal used this information to destroy part of World Serpent's foundation.

The fourth time is this time with Singapore.

Originally, if Lin Yu and the Herrscher of Death had both been severely injured, Gray Serpent wouldn't have said anything.

As a result, after Lin Yu beat up the Herrscher of Death, he killed all the clone soldiers sent by Gray Serpent in one move.

This directly resulted in the World Serpent losing most of its newly created combat power after losing the still-unwarmed Tranquility Gem.

It can be said that the fundamental reason why World Serpent's many operations have failed over the past two months is that Lin Yu has stood on the opposite side of World Serpent.

With these thoughts in mind, how could Gray Serpent possibly remain calm?

The situation has now reached a vicious cycle, and after this battle, Otto will no longer pull off a 'someone stole the Plague Gem's stunt.

Raiden Mei is usually very safe at the St. Freya Academy.

After being knocked unconscious Yuno Lin Yu, Yuno will not even leave the Schicksal Headquarters for a short period of time.

We need manpower, enough manpower.

It seems that the plan, which was originally intended to be implemented after some time, now needs to be pushed to higher levels to speed up the process.

"Jackal, the examination I had you do last time—"

"Of course it's already done."

Exhausted, the Jackal randomly tapped a few times on the light screen in the void before collapsing onto the sofa, closing his eyes, and yawning.

"Cocolia is a useless good-for-nothing who can't do anything right, but her luck is ridiculously good."

"Among the little devils she handed over to us as hostages, there was actually a pair of sisters who had 'that' kind of qualities."

"I know our organization is lacking in combat strength, so after I finish resting today, I will immediately start preparing for their surgery."

"... That must have been very hard on you."

Looking at the Jackal was almost asleep, Gray Serpent felt that he had far too few people he could use.

To begin with, there were very few high-ranking members in the World Serpent organization.

Venerable Lord Kevin is currently in jail because of the betrayal of his best friend.

Yu Tu said she hadn't finished her work and couldn't be bothered with other matters within the organization—but you can't blame her, her work was indeed very important.

Raven is indeed a useful tool; she could handle all the dirty and tiring work.

Although Jackal is known for his boastful talk, his research capabilities in biotechnology and his loyalty to the organization are unquestionable.

And then there's me... no, I should say we.

At this moment, when Gray Serpent about how all the other affairs of the organization were actually supported by them, Gray Serpent really felt that he might have been a bit too extreme in the past.

Although I have been looking for suitable talent in the past, deep down I still feel that those people are not trustworthy.

There's nothing inherently wrong with this idea itself. The problem lies in the fact that, because of this idea, we subconsciously tend to reject those from the lower classes who want to climb the social ladder.

As a result, when we need to hire people, we don't have enough mid-to-upper-level talent in our pool...

This is really difficult.

Even if Jackal creates two Fusion Warriors, it will take time to cultivate their combat awareness.

Before the Venerable Lord's return, the World Serpent's power was still too weak.

Wendy, who was soaking in the nutrient solution with the two of them, looked at the exhausted Jackal and the Gray Serpent, whose expression was not visible but gave people a gloomy feeling. She stuck out her tongue and made a face at the two of them.

She didn't know what had happened, but Wendy wasn't about to forget what Gray Serpent had said yesterday.

Gray Serpent said that World Serpent was worried that Wendy would transform into Herrscher, which is why it didn't want to provoke Wendy.

But as everyone knows, they were after the gem inside Wendy.

The idea that he didn't want to provoke Wendy was, in Wendy's opinion, a complete lie.

This group of people definitely intends to make me re-condense the gem, and then take it from my body.

The more the enemy desires something, the less I can allow it to happen.

One of the conditions for Herrscher to awaken is inner despair—hey, I'm not going to despair anyway.

Knight Lin Yu can even kill Judgment-class Honkai Beast single-handedly, so for him, slaying the World Serpent is just a matter of a word.

My legs have destined me to never leave this place.

However, in this situation, I need to at least keep myself in a good mood in order to maintain the gemstone's inaccessible state.

The angrier the enemy gets, the more I laugh; the enemy is the biggest joke.

Seeing Wendy laughing more and more happily, Gray Serpent, who was furious, inexplicably thought of Lin Yu again.

This little girl, does she really think Lin Yu can rescue her?

And that photo...

The thought of the photo taken inside the bar that he had seen made Gray Serpent feel his suppressed anger reignite.

What does it mean to say that "Schicksal will prevail and humanity will triumph"?

Damn it, you think you've fought against the Honkai, but by constantly hindering our World Serpent, you're essentially blocking the path of the Stigmata Plan.

Without the Stigmata Plan, humanity would have been completely wiped out by the Honkai sooner or later, thus putting this planet into the next cycle of reincarnation.

He used the inexplicable title of savior to give false hope to the idiots of Schicksal.

It's disgusting.

The false savior received praise amidst cheers.

But the true savior, betrayed by a traitor, wanted to save the world but could not escape his cage.

I didn't want to ask that man for help.

But for now, we can only place our hopes on him for the time being.

He possesses the power to suppress the Herrscher and knows the future Finality near.

If he has abandoned his outdated ideas, he might now choose to assist our World Serpent in rescuing the Venerable Lord he once betrayed.

Mr. Su, who holds the name of Tianhui, I hope you truly possess the wisdom to touch the heavens, just like the name you hold, and that you can clearly understand what you should and should not do at this stage when humanity is about to be destroyed.

If even you continue to choose to stand by and watch...

—Not long after, the Finality will destroy this world.

At the same time, the Schicksal Headquarters.

Looking at the impressive battle report before him, Bishop Otto of Bishop of Schicksal...

Actually, I'm not very happy.

There are many reasons why he chose to launch a surprise attack on the World Serpent at this time.

For example, the remaining Herrscher squad of Gray Serpent is enough to deal with the ordinary branch; they can't be stopped anyway, so they might as well launch a full-scale assault.

For example, Otto himself doesn't care about the lives of his subordinates. At this time, the enemy will definitely be trying to move away. So even if some subordinates are sacrificed, it is definitely not a loss to take over the World Serpent's industry.

However, the core reason is that Otto is currently very unhappy.

He had thought that after Yuno awakened as the Herrscher of Death, she would at least be able to reshape Kallen's body according to the genetic blueprint provided by Otto, if not be able to recall souls.

If Yuno can do this, Otto will definitely keep her at Schicksal Headquarters and work hard to train her powers so that Yuno can use her powers to try to touch the souls of others as soon as possible, and thus complete the great task of completely resurrecting others through her powers.

However, after using Feathered Dust to hypnotize Yuno a period of time, Otto regretted it.

He was prepared for the possibility that the 'Kallen' created by Yuno would be a mindless being.

However, he did not expect that Yuno, as the Herrscher of Death, would focus not on the Authority of Creation that represents life, but on the power of decay that represents death.

Her subordinate powers, such as generating toxins and creating plants, are still intact.

However, Yuno really couldn't use the power of creation well.

She attempted to create Kallen's physical body three times, and all three attempts went smoothly.

However, after creating the physical body, Yuno was unable to control the power of the Authority of Creation, causing the physical body to collapse instantly.

On one occasion, Otto even caused poison to appear on 'Kallen' due to Yuno's mistake, resulting in him seeing 'Kallen' die from poisoning rather than physical collapse before his eyes.

To be honest, even if he accepted the fact that he had caused Kallen's death, Otto was still unhappy to see Kallen die in front of him time and time again because of him.

But now, he can't possibly kill the Herrscher of Death with a single shot.

The Herrscher of Death is not doing well now does not mean that she will not be able to do well in the future.

Moreover, even if we settle for second best, the Herrscher of Death is one of the sacrifices offered to the Herrscher of the Void for her awakening.

Even if he wanted to vent his anger, Otto couldn't possibly blow Yuno's head off with a single shot after Yuno had completely fused with the Tranquility Gem.

After all, she still has a great use to her.

Therefore, Otto's decision to send troops at lightning speed to beat up the World Serpent was actually just to vent his anger.

However, even after venting his anger, Otto still felt very unhappy.

Sometimes, Otto really felt like a complete failure.

Despite having become the de facto king of humanity, he couldn't even find a suitable punching bag to vent his anger.

If it weren't for the fact that his plans had been going relatively smoothly recently, Otto would be even more frustrated now.

That's enough, that's enough.

The World Serpent has already been beaten into submission; there's no point in continuing to waste energy and effort on them.

Anyway, the reason these guys took Wendy away was simply because they wanted the Desire Gem inside her.

The prerequisite for extracting the Desire Gem is that the Desire Gem must first solidify and take shape.

The prerequisite for the Desire Gem to take shape is that Wendy transforms into Herrscher.

The moment Herrscher appears, the alarms on Schicksal's side will sound immediately.

When the time comes, let Bianca and Lin Yu go over there together. As long as Lin Yu brings the HSN Serum, and the two of them knock Wendy unconscious and give her an injection, all the problems will be solved.

At this point, there's no need to rush to search for Wendy, since her current situation is quite suitable for waiting patiently.

Well, the biggest problem is still with the Second Divine Key.

Now K423 and Lin Yu's relationship is getting closer and closer. If this continues, the two things I lack will only be the Void Key and that beacon.

I don't want those menacing warriors to come knocking on my door before K423 has even completed its awakening and I've already gotten my hands on the Void Key and Beacon.

Hey, I wouldn't mind risking my life, but...

—The people who are worth sacrificing my life for are not you.

Rita failed this time, and it wasn't her fault.

She has done her best within her capabilities. If the gap in hard power is large enough, she can't defeat the enemy.

Once she wakes up, let her continue her investigation.

England, the Legend of King Arthur, The Void Key...
