Do Your Best, Crimson Heron Immortal
Theresa is a nice person, but her advice... Lin Yu can only say that she has too little information, so her advice is really not very valuable.
However, Lin Yu wholeheartedly agreed with the one sentence Theresa uttered at the end.
Moreover, after Theresa finished speaking, Lin Yu suddenly realized something.
Lin Yi is an artificial human created using the DNA of him, Yuno, and Kiana.
Theoretically speaking, given her extremely strong Honkai Energy adaptability and Honkai Energy, and even her Kaslana bloodline, she should possess the 'Kaslana Stigmata'.
However, in the current situation, having Stigmata does not guarantee a stable future for her.
This world is already messed up, and we're still using the old rules to apply to the present world. If Lin Yi gets into trouble because of Lin Yu's carelessness, Lin Yu feels he will never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
That's utter garbage.
I had thought the Stigmata Plan was a guaranteed reward—but it was a total rip-off.
If my daughter gets into trouble because of this shitty plan, then...
No, you can't think like that.
It's not time yet, I must avoid this worst-case scenario!
At this moment, Theresa, because Lin Yu was driving the Cold-Faced Hunk (with his cool demeanor), was unable to see through Lin Yu's inner thoughts.
However, as a mental Fusion Warrior, Su clearly noticed at that moment that Lin Yu's mental fluctuations had just become extremely intense in an instant.
Moreover, this is undoubtedly murderous intent.
Mr. Lin Yu, what exactly are you thinking about?
... It's nothing, I just discovered something I'd always forgotten.
"Bishop, I am very grateful for your concern for my mental health."
After saying that, Lin Yu, having overcome his Cold-Faced Hunk demeanor, said to Theresa with a helpless expression.
"Since you've put it this way, I'll go to the infirmary now."
"Okay, okay!"
Seeing Lin Yu walk out of her office, Theresa finally felt a little relieved.
But then, Theresa, who had just felt relieved, suddenly looked incredibly gloomy.
Lin Yu... The reason he values Xiao Yi so much is probably because his parents died in the Honkai.
I thought that after Xiao Yi, this unexpected gift, appeared in Lin Yu's life, he would restrain himself a little.
As a result, he still has no intention of letting go of that obsession.
Trouble.
It's not that I think he'll die out there.
No matter how worried I am, I have to admit that there are very few people in this world who can threaten Lin Yu now.
However, the problem is that since mental illness is called an illness, it certainly cannot be considered a good thing.
As long as his illness doesn't get better, the symptoms will only continue to erode his spirit.
If things continue like this, one day...
Just as Theresa was helplessly pondering a solution, she suddenly received a communication from Amber.
"Lady Theresa."
Amber, standing in the light screen, looked at Theresa with an embarrassed expression, a bead of cold sweat already seeping from her face.
"Have you given Lord Lin Yu the order to launch an attack on Shenzhou?"
"What the heck??????"
Hearing Amber's question, Theresa immediately shouted.
"Didn't I tell him to go to the infirmary?"
"That kid Lin Yu, how come he's completely ignoring my orders now!"
The thought that Lin Yu had actually gone against her wishes and gone off to fight Honkai Beast without saying a word made Theresa feel that her blood pressure, which had been high all day, suddenly reached a new high.
"Stop him! Stop him right now!"
"Well, Lady Theresa, we... we couldn't stop them."
Listening to Theresa's speech, Amber, sweating profusely, glanced at the pilot Mike beside her and continued speaking to Theresa.
"I sensed something was wrong, so I prevented Mr. Mike from making any moves, but..."
"After Mr. Su stopped Lord Lin Yu, the two exchanged a few words in a rather unpleasant manner, but it seems that they actually reached a consensus."
"Although Lord Lin Yu and Mr. Su still seem to be at odds, after reaching a consensus, Lord Lin Yu, along with Miss Mei, Miss Yuno, Lady Durandal, and Mr. Su, left the headquarters using the Void Key."
"I think even if we use the fastest transport planes to intercept them now, we won't be able to stop their actions."
"That brat... he's going to drive me crazy!"
"That's right!"
Theresa, remembering that the Seven Thunders of Retribution Purification were still charging, immediately asked Amber.
"Where are the Seven Thunders of Retribution? I remember they were stored in the Honkai Energy Recharge Warehouse."
"Grandma Theresa, I'm sorry."
Upon hearing those words, Theresa felt her heart grow even colder.
At the same time, upon hearing the children around her make a sound, Amber cooperatively turned the camera towards Lin Yi and quietly stepped aside.
"But I felt that Dad needed the Thunder Key, so I took it upon myself to steal it."
"If Grandma thinks I did something wrong, then punish me—this was my own choice and has nothing to do with Dad."
"You... you father and daughter are going to drive me crazy!"
And that's not right!
The warehouse requires fingerprint verification, so where Xiao Yi... that... this...?
At that moment, Theresa's body suddenly froze.
After guessing a certain possibility, Theresa felt her anger vanish instantly, completely terrified.
Xiao Yi is the daughter of Kiana, Lin Yu, Yuno.
She managed to escape from the World Serpent's warehouse to Lin Yu's side.
Kiana is not the real Kiana; she is a special individual who was reincarnated as Sirin and placed into Kiana's clone.
In other words—this child also Herrscher of the Void's DNA in their genes!
The Herrscher of the Void hasn't even awakened yet, and this kid can already use spatial teleportation to steal the Divine Key?
No, wait, the Honkai has accelerated to this point, two Herrscher in four days, so what about the next Herrscher...?
"Xiao Yi, I'll let this matter drop for now, but now..."
"Go and call your Kiana Mom to my side, right now!"
"Yes!"
Watching Lin Yi give Theresa a military salute and then skip away from everyone's sight, Amber said helplessly.
"Lady Theresa, you spoil her too much."
"No, Amber, now is not the time to discuss this."
Having already considered certain possibilities, Theresa spoke to Amber with utmost solemnity.
"Let's open the training grounds."
"Kiana is my niece after all. She's not as strong as the others right now, and she's probably resentful about it."
"Anyway, the others will handle these matters. In the future, I'll use this time to give my dear niece a good workout."
We must keep an eye on Kiana.
Unlike other Herrscher, Sirin's fate had already determined her destiny, and the resentment in her heart far exceeded that of other Herrscher.
As for Lin Yu...
When you get back, buddy, then...
—I'll show you again!
Chapter 234. Keep it up, Crimson Heron Immortal!
Otto, inside the coffee shop, looked at the white-haired man in front of him and spoke in a very exaggerated manner to this man he had long admired but was meeting for the first time.
Long live the World Serpent!
However, seeing that the other party did not show any emotional change due to his exaggerated performance, Otto naturally could not maintain this demeanor.
"Okay, just kidding, Mr. Kevin, there's no need to be so cold."
"After all, Mr. Kevin invited me here to negotiate, surely not to fight me, right?"
"Nature."
Kevin responded indifferently to Otto's glib talk.
"Otto Apocalypse, I need Schicksal to assist the World Serpent's Stigmata Plan."
Ah, just as I expected.
He really came for this.
Moreover, this tone, rather than discussion or negotiation, sounds more like... an order?
He doesn't respect me at all.
Since becoming an archbishop, I have not been looked down upon like this in a long time.
Although this experience was novel, it was still not a pleasant one.
The person who can become the Venerable Lord of the World Serpent is definitely not a fool.
So, the fact that he spoke in this manner despite knowing the current state of the World Serpent and the strength of Schicksal is enough to prove some major issues.
However, although Otto deduced some information from Kevin's words and felt a faint sense of pressure from Kevin, as the leader who had ruled the Schicksal for five hundred years, he certainly wouldn't just bow down and worship because of these minor issues.
If Kevin wants to order him around, that's Kevin's business. He's not Kevin's dog, so why would he obediently do whatever Kevin says?
"Oh, the request is as expected."
After uttering the word 'request' quite naturally, Otto smiled and asked Kevin.
"Then, Mr. Kevin, you need Schicksal's assistance with the World Serpent's Stigmata Plan, which is of course no problem."
"However, before you ask me to help you, I think you should pay a small deposit to prove your sincerity—this is not an unreasonable request, is it?"
"Deposit?"
In response to Otto's verbal provocation, Kevin calmly retorted with a question.
"How about we call it even if you forcefully attacked the World Serpent base?"
Although Kevin's tone was much softer in this sentence, Otto sensed an obvious threat in Kevin.
Is this guy implying that past grudges haven't ended because of our current alliance?
How petty this man is!
But there's nothing I can do. The situation is completely deadlocked now. If I don't take drastic measures, I'll probably just watch Lin Yu grow stronger step by step, and I'll be completely unable to complete my plan.
"I think the Plague Gem and this assistance should be enough to prove my sincerity."
Having forcibly suppressed his inner desires, Otto smiled and looked at Kevin, then spoke to Kevin again.
"If Mr. Kevin wants me to continue working for World Serpent for free, then I think it's time to end this conversation here."
"Is that so? Well then, that's fine too."
