Even though the other party was the former leader of an opposing organization and an old geezer whom Lin Yu disliked, Durandal had interacted with the two multiple times, could clearly sense it...

These two people are definitely not bad people.

As for the comparison, it is of course Otto Apocalypse, who has been missing for a long time.

Mr. Otto, who likened himself to the witch Medea, always played his cards right with Durandal, his subordinate and disciple.

Now, Otto, who calls himself Medea, hasn't contacted headquarters after all this time.

Meanwhile, the two people that Durandal initially thought were bad news are now not only not taking advantage of her misfortune, but are also helping her find Lin Yu, the strongest warrior in Schicksal.

At a time like this, there's really no need for Durandal to suspect the other party of having ill intentions.

But today, upon seeing Su's Durandal, I suddenly felt that the expression between her brows seemed slightly different from usual.

"Mr. Su, is there anything you'd like to say?"

"... No, Miss Bianca is overthinking it."

Hearing Durandal's question, Su gently shook her head and said to Durandal.

"In fact, after Shenzhou handed that report to Schicksal, Bishop Theresa also handed it over to us."

"And now, the Herrscher of the Void isn't causing trouble, which, in my opinion... is actually a troublesome thing."

"The plan before the Honkai successfully caused Kevin and Mr. Lin Yu to fight, while also stimulating the Herrscher Persona of the Herrscher of the Void and the Herrscher of Reason. This not only turned the forces we could have recruited into a disorganized mess, but also caused them to turn against each other because of the stimulation they received."

"If I were part of the Honkai, then now that Mr. Lin Yu has disappeared..."

"You mean, Honkai will definitely begin a new plan during this period?"

Listening to Su's speculation, Durandal said thoughtfully.

"That's not right. If there had been any movement during this time, the intelligence department, which has been working at full speed, should have found some clues by now."

"Yes, but the biggest problem is that the Honkai did not take action when our combat strength was in trouble."

"If we can't find the problem, we can't address it. And once the Honkai of the plan is completed in secret, we'll have even more headaches to deal with."

"Hmm... then I won't ask any more questions."

Seeing the Abyssal Eye already activated, Durandal, who had given up on thinking too much, resolutely jumped into the entrance of the Abyssal Eye.

"Anyway, we don't know what cards Honkai right now, so..."

"Bringing Lin Yu back as soon as possible is what I should be doing now."

After watching the girl's body being directly enveloped by the entrance, Su slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, while the issues he mentioned were among those he had been pondering, the reason Sue looked at Durandal just now was for another reason.

To this day, Siegfried has been missing for a long time since he was captured by Kevin.

As Siegfried's daughter, Durandal, in Sue's view, had the right to know that her father was in danger.

However, now that Durandal is the most suitable person to become a 'lifesaver' for both organizations, if her mind is in turmoil, it may cause her to encounter some unnecessary dangers when rescuing Lin Yu.

After much thought, Su decided that she should wait until Durandal had retrieved Lin Yu before telling her about this.

Moreover, Sue and Welt's current stay in Haiyuan City is not because they have nothing to do.

During this period, after the Herrscher of the Void seized the Void Key, it could have stirred up a turmoil.

But she didn't take any action.

Considering the micromanagement that Number Seventeen performed after infiltrating the enemy ranks, Su felt that Number Seventeen must have already begun a new plan.

With humanity's current combat strength, the five Herrscher —Ice, Rock, Flame, Erosion, and Domination—who have not yet been born, could be awakened by the Honkai at the right time and have enough power to change the course of the battle.

Among these five Herrscher, there are two Herrscher, after awakening, may subtly and imperceptibly exert control and erode influence in their actions.

If it were the Previous Era's Herrscher coming one by one to die, Su wouldn't have such a headache.

However, in this era, instead of making the difficulty lower, Android 17, while fixing the Herrscher Authority, actually started micro-management.

Compressing the awakening time of Herrscher, stimulating the rotation of Herrscher's cores, micro-manipulating the amplification/suppression of Herrscher's core operation, luring potentially rebellious Herrscher into a duel with powerful enemies, and then letting both sides fight to a standstill...

If those old friends were still in front of her, Su really wanted to ask them what kind of exciting algorithm they had written into the AI that controlled Number Seventeen, which made Number Seventeen turn the originally not-so-threatening Honkai into such a hellish level of difficulty.

In the past, Sue was worried that Kevin would carry out the Stigmata Plan after he was released.

But now that things have come to this point, Su suddenly realized something.

He felt that the next time he met Kevin, he might have to persuade Kevin to change his approach.

Besides the main reason that Su himself really disliked the Stigmata Plan, there was another more important reason.

The Stigmata Plan requires sufficient time to complete, but now...

—Will Honkai, under the micro-management of No. 17, really give them enough time?

The Quantum Sea. A Certain World Bubble

At the exit of a certain World Bubble, Seele watched Lin Yu stretching his muscles and felt that the scene was not quite what she had imagined.

After learning that everyone had found the exit of the World Bubble, Seele originally thought that once they reached the exit, they would need to gather everyone's strength to open a huge gap in the exit so that they could get out safely.

But when it was time to leave World Bubble today, Seele discovered that actually only she and Lin Yu were present.

Oh, if you include the other self inside me, there should be three people.

As for the others, according to Lin Yu, they all returned to Lin Yu's own Stigmata Space.

At this moment, Yae Sakura, Ji Lin, Cecilia, and Rin all gained physical bodies thanks to the power gathered within the World Bubble.

However, even so, this does not prevent the Stigmata Space from absorbing the four of them.

"Um, Brother Lin Yu."

Looking at the boy in front of her, Seele asked timidly.

"Is there anything I can do next?"

"Oh, yes."

Lin Yu, who had stopped moving, materialized the Blank Key and spoke calmly to Seele.

"Keep an eye on your best friend and make sure she doesn't do anything rash."

"If I get angry, I have no idea what will happen then."

This guy—!

Another me...

Okay, I understand. I won't do anything reckless.

At least not now.

After sensing the helplessness in Seele's words, Black Seele said fiercely to Seele.

We'll settle our score after we get out of here!

Well, I think even if we get out, the power gap between you and Brother Lin Yu will still be huge.

[Hmph, you don't understand any of this. Besides—I never said I wanted to settle things with him through strength.]

Seele, you need to understand one thing: when it comes to combat...

[It's always about having a brain!]

To be honest, Seele didn't think that her other self could surpass Lin Yu in terms of thinking ability.

She didn't know much about Lin Yu, after all, they had only known each other for less than a week.

However, through spending this week together, Seele also discovered that Lin Yu has strong observation and deductive abilities.

Although Black Seele and Lin Yu didn't have much direct contact, Lin Yu could often guess her thoughts.

In this case...

Even if you use your brain, you don't have much of a chance of winning, my other self.

Of course, Seele would never say these things directly to her other self.

Having lingered in the World Bubble of the Quantum Sea for a long time, she longed to leave these horrible places and return to her loved ones.

When hope appeared before her, Seele truly felt that many things no longer mattered.

Mother Cocolia, Sister Bronya, and everyone in the orphanage, please wait a little longer.

After today...

—I'll be able to see everyone again!

Chapter 256. You don't actually want to get your marriage certificate in three days, do you?

The girl, filled with longing for her family, was unable to suppress her emotions. At the same time, Seele was also very curious about what method Lin Yu planned to use to leave the World Bubble.

They did find the entrance and exit of this World Bubble, but finding the exit is one thing, and the entrance and exit of the World Bubble are not always open.

To prevent other foreign objects from entering the World Bubble from the Quantum Sea, most of the entrances and exits to the World Bubble are kept closed most of the time.

The entrance in front of the two was clearly in the same state.

But soon, Seele understood why Lin Yu had told her not to do anything Black Seele at this time.

As the warm-up exercises ended, Lin Yu suddenly exuded a sense of pressure far exceeding that before.

Wearing the Blank Key, Lin Yu at this moment simultaneously concentrated magic power, Dimensional Force, and Honkai Energy into his right fist.

Not only that, he also unleashed the full power of the three Demon Kings' imprints, the power of the Stigmata, and even his own Constraint Barrier as the Herrscher of Constraint.

Lin Yu didn't say anything more, but at this moment, Seele had already started to retreat frantically without stopping.

Even though they knew the other party meant them no harm, the overwhelming sense of oppression still caused both Seele and Black Seele to feel an uncontrollable fear.

This, this man...

Looking at Lin Yu, who was intently gathering his power, Black Seele felt truly grateful that she hadn't completely fallen out with him.

At this moment, the terrifying pressure emanating from Lin Yu made Black Seele, who was lurking within the Stigmata, feel that he could easily annihilate all the enemies with this terrifying attack.

This is not the full extent of Lin Yu's strength.

Even if Black Seele didn't know about Lin Yu's other hidden trump cards, if she also factored in the power Lin Yu had previously gained by entering her inner world...

It's better not to overthink it.

Otherwise, let's just let this guy's threats against me go.

"Ha, it's almost over."

After enveloping his fist in a Constraint Barrier, Lin Yu unleashed an incredibly powerful punch at the entrance before him.

To be honest, he thought a lot about how to leave the World Bubble before he found the entrance.

But after seeing this entrance and exit, Lin Yu put all his thoughts out of his mind.

Looking at the unpleasant crack, Lin Yu felt a surge of impatience in his heart for some reason.

After this emotion took over his mind, Lin Yu, filled with impatience and violence, made a decisive decision.

His attack might cause many unnecessary problems in this World Bubble.

But now, if he hesitates for even a second here, the dangers his companions and loved ones will face in the outside world will increase.

Rather than choosing a gentler way to leave, he opted for a simpler and more brutal method.

"Constraint..."

" —Explosive Fist!"

We can simply smash open the entrance to the World Bubble, which will save a lot of time.

As the Constraint Barrier on the outside of Lin Yu's fist struck the spatial rift that served as the entrance and exit of the World Bubble, the energy intensity near the spatial rift was naturally weakened considerably.

After the energy intensity near the spatial rift was weakened, the various energies attached to Lin Yu's fist were injected into the rift using the special technique of the Explosive Fist, and then exploded simultaneously.

Seele, who thought she had retreated to a safe zone, swallowed hard when she saw Lin Yu's punch create a small spatial storm.
