Don't Underestimate My Intelligence Network!

After hearing Wendy's pitiful story, the gentle Mei softly hugged the trembling girl in front of her and patted her back.

"Don't be afraid, it's all over now."

"At least for now, Otto can't possibly step in to deal with us."

"Hmm, let me organize the intelligence."

After opening the intelligence screen she had independently created, Bronya lightly swiped her finger across the screen a few times before displaying the intelligence she had compiled in front of everyone.

"This is roughly the intelligence we have at the moment."

"Then let's piece together the information Wendy has..."

"1. After Otto was beaten up Class President Fu Hua, he dared not show his face in Schicksal and could only leave Schicksal Headquarters with the Plague Gem."

"2. After that, he joined forces with his Schicksal World Serpent, in an attempt to release the World Serpent's Venerable Lord Kevin, who was trapped in the Quantum Sea. Judging from the experience of twenty-four days ago, they had clearly succeeded."

"3. After that, Otto abandoned his duties as the Archbishop of Schicksal, and even took the initiative to contact Schicksal Headquarters, something that Fu Hua would not stop Class President from doing."

"And then..."

Seeing Wendy's stunned expression, Bronya sighed softly.

"Wendy, I know you're surprised, but while our predictions aren't entirely correct, they're probably about 80% accurate."

After confirming several times that she wasn't seeing things, Wendy slammed her hand on the coffee table in front of her in a fit of rage.

"That damned scoundrel, how dare he!"

"Of the seven Herrscher have appeared now, six were created because of him. Is this guy really not a mole within the Honkai Faction???"

Seeing Wendy's reaction, Bronya felt deeply that Otto's misdeeds must not be known to any unnecessary people at this time.

Even Wendy, who already knew Otto's true nature, was incredibly shocked by what Otto had done.

If the other Schicksal Ones knew what Otto had done...

At that time, the "Bishop is not wrong" faction will purge us "rumor-mongering" brats, while the "If the Bishop is wrong, who can we believe?" faction will probably collapse.

If Schicksal collapses, the battle lines against Honkai will also collapse.

If this matter is handled carelessly, every one of us will be a sinner for all time.

"Wendy, calm down."

Looking at the girl in front of her who wanted to curse but couldn't, Mei immediately thought of a topic to distract Wendy.

"I heard before that Acting Bishop Theresa was your teacher, now..."

"—Do you still hate Bishop Theresa for recommending you as a test subject for the Desire Gem fusion experiment?"

"Teacher Theresa..."

After hesitating for a moment, Wendy told Mei what was on her mind.

"To be honest, I used to resent her a little because she couldn't move her legs."

"But our Shenzhou— "

"Your Shenzhou?"

Seeing the three of them staring at her suspiciously, Wendy realized she might have said something wrong, so she coughed twice and then addressed the group.

"Don't worry about such details. I am a disciple of the Shenzhou Immortal, so it's perfectly fine for me to call myself Shenzhou Immortal—right, everyone?"

"In short, there is an old saying in Shenzhou: 'Between life and death lies great terror, but also great opportunity.'"

"After that incident, I felt—why should I hate Teacher Theresa?"

"She had no choice but to recommend me. At least I survived if she recommended me. If it were someone else, they might have died like that Valkyrie who was supposedly destroyed by the Tranquility Gem."

"In the end, she had no choice but to protect her students. Rather than hating Theresa, who was helpless, I think—why hate her? The only person I hate is that scoundrel Otto!"

Seeing the murderous intent reappear on Wendy's face, the three were certain that Wendy was on their side.

Sigh, now all that's missing is Brother Lin Yu and the Class President.

It's one thing that the Class President is busy today, but where did Brother Lin Yu go?

After meeting with Miss Rita yesterday, Brother Lin Yu and Miss Rita did not return to the Schicksal Headquarters.

Leaving aside Miss Rita, given Brother Lin Yu's style...

—Is he dealing with matters related to the Herrscher again right now?

.

Meanwhile, at the Tai Xu Mountain

Within the Phantasm Lantern Barrier Tai Xu Mountain, Fu Hua, having attained the Great Harmony of Life, lay on the grass, feeling that her mood was... somewhat different from what she had imagined.

Fu Hua, who was treated this way by Lin Yu, thought that she would be shy and resistant to Lin Yu's actions.

However, after the two had their most direct conversation, Fu Hua discovered that her initial thoughts were completely different from what she had expected.

The more intense Lin Yu's actions were, the more she enjoyed the process of interacting with Lin Yu.

Although both sides had returned to the state of infants at birth, Fu Hua, who was being embraced by Lin Yu at the time, felt only tranquility in her heart during this intense 'duel'.

In the countless years that have passed, Fu Hua can no longer recall when she last felt a moment of peace.

Logically speaking, Fu Hua, who was treated so roughly, should be criticized along with Lin Yu for his previous extreme actions of brutally taking action against her despite her resistance.

However, at this moment, Fu Hua turned her head to look at Lin Yu beside her, and suddenly completely abandoned these thoughts that she should have held.

With a tranquil mind, the Crimson Heron Immortal had now entered a state of mental emptiness.

It's a little embarrassing to admit, but she is like this now...

—I really enjoy this feeling.

Lin Yu, who was staring at Fu Hua, said nothing, simply maintaining the exact same posture as Fu Hua, quietly waiting, waiting, waiting...

Then, after staring at each other for a minute, they both burst out laughing at the same time.

"Master, are you feeling any better now?"

Seeing the blush of happiness on the woman's face, Lin Yu asked Fu Hua.

"Do you still feel stressed now?"

"Pressure? That kind of thing can't just disappear like that. But right now, more than these responsibilities, I want you to do one thing."

"What's up?"

"Don't call me Master anymore, Lin Yu."

After taking the initiative to approach Lin Yu, Fu Hua whispered in Lin Yu's ear.

I hope you will call me by that name.

"Call me by my real name, my real name is..."

"Hua?"

"Um."

After nodding slightly, Fu Hua wanted to say something more.

But in the next moment—

[Aaaaaaah, I've had enough! You Herrscher, how dare you, how dare you—I'll fight you to the death!]

After a string of angry words popped into her head, Fu Hua suddenly felt the power of her Herrscher Persona begin to surge rapidly.

Before she could say anything, Lin Yu saw Fu Hua, who was completely calm in front of him, suddenly turn blood red.

After Fu Hua transformed into 'Fu Hua', tears of grievance suddenly welled up in the woman's eyes.

"Why, why didn't you refuse her?!"

"Whether it's kissing, hugging, or falling in love with you."

"I was here first..."

"—I was here first from the very beginning!"

Chapter 269. Don't underestimate my intelligence network!

To be honest, although Lin Yu had anticipated that Fu Hua would continue to be impersonated by the Herrscher of Reason at some point, he never expected that the Herrscher of Reason would impersonate her so...

Inappropriate.

Logically speaking, after the initial intimacy and connection between the two, this should be the time for them to continue communicating their feelings.

But now, looking at the Herrscher of Reason with teary eyes, Lin Yu had a rare thought: 'Ah, I really don't know how to make something up this time.'

With the Voidpower Gem Shard, he can resist the consciousness detection and modification powers of the Herrscher of Reason to a certain extent.

But even if he manages to prevent the Herrscher of Reason from exploring his mind...

So what?

Facing the Herrscher of Reason who recognized him as the real Fu Hua, Lin Yu really couldn't let go of his inhibitions.

In the eyes of the Herrscher of Reason, who sees herself as Fu Hua herself, it is indeed true that Lin Yu met Fu Hua first and secretly kissed Fu Hua.

In this situation, this brat is definitely jealous. Faced with a jealous... brat, Lin Yu has absolutely no idea how to deal with him.

What terrified Lin Yu even more was that, in that instant when the Herrscher of Reason looked at him, he actually...

—A strange and unsettling impulse arose within me.

Wait, what's that?

Could it be that...

"Hmph! I don't care anymore!"

At this moment, the Herrscher of Reason wiped away her tears with her arm, then suddenly and viciously flipped over and pinned Lin Yu down.

The moment he was suppressed by his opponent, Lin Yu finally realized what had just happened.

The current Herrscher of Reason is not yet aware that she is the Herrscher of Reason; in other words, she still belongs to the 'Honkai side' Herrscher.

The Herrscher of Reason, who received Honkai Support, forcibly broke through Lin Yu's mental defenses, causing Lin Yu to have an impulse he shouldn't have had for a moment.

This impulse is not a negative one, but rather an impulse to hold the other person in your arms and to cherish and pity them with all your might.

"Disciple, you have been bewitched by the Herrscher, but this is not your fault."

"But now, this is the only way your master can make you fully realize the truth."

Speaking strange words that Lin Yu couldn't understand, the Herrscher of Reason manipulated Fu Hua's body, making a pose that Fu Hua would never make.

Faced with this Herrscher harbors special feelings for him, Lin Yu is now...

What else can I say?

From the moment of her birth, the Herrscher of Reason mistakenly identified herself Fu Hua, thus inheriting Fu Hua's emotions but choosing a different path from Fu Hua's.

She did indeed become a dangerous figure in Lin Yu's eyes due to the interference of the Honkai, but at the same time, in Lin Yu's eyes, the Herrscher of Reason was not only dangerous, but also...

—Very pitiful.

Her birth was an accident caused by the struggle between the Herrscher and the mortal world, and the only thing she could rely on to survive was her memories as 'Fu Hua'.

At that time, Lin Yu, as the closest opposite-sex person to the Herrscher of Reason, would naturally be the subject of some excessive emotions projected by the Herrscher of Reason.

Watching the girl cry out his name while trying to gain his approval, Lin Yu felt even more heartbroken.

From the time Fu Hua became Herrscher until now, nearly thirty days have passed. Even the most obsessive Herrscher of Reason should have realized that something is wrong with her.

However, his recent act of getting close to Fu Hua became the final straw that broke the back of the Herrscher of Reason.

Even if she tries to be stubborn now, she still breaks down because Lin Yu 'chose' Fu Hua.

Having inherited almost everything from Fu Hua, she only needed to use her brain a little to realize with immense bitterness that Lin Yu, who could usually calmly analyze everything, referred to Fu Hua as Hua, clearly acknowledging her as the original Fu Hua from the very beginning, rather than treating her as Herrscher.

Amidst the storm, the girl, filled with unease, jealousy, helplessness, and bitterness, ultimately succumbed to this pleasure.

After the storm, the girl who was clinging to Lin Yu looked at Lin Yu pitifully and asked Lin Yu a question that she already knew the answer to.
