Don't Underestimate My Intelligence Network! (Continued)

"Lin Yu, am I... Fu Hua?"

"Master, you are no other than yourself."

Seeing the girl's yearning gaze, Lin Yu kissed her forcefully.

As the two separated again, Lin Yu gazed at the woman with dazed eyes and uttered seemingly cruel words to her.

"You are you, nothing more."

"Why..."

Hearing these almost explicit words, the Herrscher of Reason, feeling all her illusions shattered, asked Lin Yu unwillingly.

Why won't you even lie to me once?!

"You clearly... you clearly know what answer I want!"

Yes, I know perfectly well what answer she wants.

If I give her the answer she wants, even if she knows it's a lie, she'll force herself to believe it.

However, a short, sharp pain is worse than a long, drawn-out one.

Even if she is allowed to indulge in a false illusion now, she will eventually have to face reality.

Rather than dragging this out and causing even greater consequences in the future, my choice is still...

—It would be better to tell her the truth now.

Looking at the woman who had started to cry, Lin Yu did not make any other move, but spoke to her very seriously.

"In order to keep it from Otto, I have already gone against my conscience and told far too many lies."

"And now, I have the qualifications to rise from a chess piece to a chess player, and now I am..."

"I don't want to tell anyone any more unnecessary lies."

"Yes, lying is definitely not a good thing, but you know what, Lin Yu..."

Hearing Lin Yu's resolute words, the Herrscher of Reason changed his previous style and muttered to himself with his head down.

"People in the desert, even if they know that the liquid in front of them is a cup of poison, will still choose to drink it all in order to quench their thirst."

"That's true, but even so, poison is still poison."

"I don't know what to say right now, but I don't have any bad thoughts about you because of your true identity."

"I'm an awkward man, I don't know what to say at a time like this, but..."

"I will stay by your side as long as you wish."

"What do you mean by a clumsy man? You worthless scoundrel, you're just full of sweet talk."

Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, the Herrscher of Reason suddenly burst out laughing and poked Lin Yu's chest with her finger.

"Alright, Master was just teasing you. Do you really think I'm such a fragile person?"

"My personality was created by an accident, but in the end, I am the 'Crimson Heron Immortal'."

"When the Crimson Heron Immortal was slaying demons and monsters, you weren't even born yet."

Hearing the words of the Herrscher of Reason about returning to one's true nature, Lin Yu muttered softly.

"I wonder who was it that was sporting and crying on me just now."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

At this moment, the Herrscher of Reason suddenly used his superb movement skills to wrap his body around Lin Yu and asked Lin Yu in a slightly mischievous way.

"Say it again, Master, I didn't hear you clearly."

"I didn't say anything!"

"Hmph, it's too late now."

Looking at the man beside him, the Herrscher of Reason revealed a sly smile.

"You unfilial wretch, today I'll teach you a lesson..."

"—The true strength of the Crimson Heron Immortal!"

Lin Yu, inside the Phantasm Lantern Barrier, confirmed one thing at this moment.

The system's claim that it would self-block at certain times seems to be true.

Despite the huge uproar this time, the system hasn't said a word.

However, what the leader said earlier was indeed correct.

The taste of immortality...

—It's really great.

.

That day, at midnight, at a certain secret base of Schicksal.

Otto, who was reviewing intelligence reports inside the secret base, felt his head getting bigger and bigger.

After obtaining that thing from God, Otto began his own scheme.

The problem is that even with the blessing of God, Otto still can't beat Fu Hua when her body has recovered to its peak.

He couldn't beat his old friend, and he had no doubt that his old friend, without the interference of the Herrscher Persona, would definitely find a way to rip his skull open now.

In this situation, Otto, who dared not return to Schicksal, could only develop a very limited plan, even with his extraordinary abilities.

Today, looking at the information gathered from these Amber collections, Otto felt even more overwhelmed.

This morning, Raiden Mei, Yuno, and Bronya Zaychek, three Valkyrie from the former Far East Branch, suddenly disappeared from headquarters.

The three of them had asked Theresa for permission to go out today, and Theresa had approved their request. But that's where the problem lies.

Theresa trusted her three students completely and approved their action application without asking any questions.

And these three people seemed to understand their teacher's true nature, so they really didn't write anything on their application forms!

One dared to submit, and the other dared to criticize.

Due to the actions of both sides that infuriated Otto had no way of knowing where they had gone.

As for knowing their operational objectives by tracking where the transport planes are heading, that won't work either.

These three little girls didn't even use a transport plane this time!

Once Otto knew this, he immediately understood how the three of them had left.

Quantum Teleportation System.

In Otto's view, the system that Otto helped World Serpent improve was an absolutely revolutionary technological product.

While this thing isn't as effective as the powers of the Void Key or the Herrscher of the Void, the problem is...

—The Void Key and the Herrscher of the Void are not in Otto's possession, so this thing is super awesome for him!

Originally, Otto obtained a limited Quantum Teleportation System from the World Serpent.

But before he could use it even a few times, World Serpent shut down Otto's access.

Otto, who had hoped to have a chance to cooperate deeply with World Serpent, was turned away by World Serpent several times in a row. Then, Gray Serpent told him, "Sorry, World Serpent's plans have changed," and directly terminated the deal with Otto.

The reason Otto was so bold as to give the Plague Gem as a 'deposit' to the World Serpent was because he felt that the World Serpent's plan involved the entire globe and would inevitably require the help of Schicksal.

When Otto spoke with Kevin and Gray Serpent, he threatened them that he was prepared to wage Schicksal full-scale war against the World Serpent if necessary, and he was serious about it.

He had assumed that Kevin and the Gray Serpent would be wary of Schicksal launching a full-scale war against the World Serpent, thus causing the Stigmata Plan to fail.

But now, he discovered that the other party didn't seem afraid of Otto flipping the table.

Or rather, Otto, who dared not return to the Schicksal Headquarters at this point, had lost the right to overturn the table.

If Otto is to wage a full-scale war against World Serpent, he will inevitably have to return to Schicksal Headquarters in public.

However, once he publicly returns to the Schicksal Headquarters, Fu Hua's Tai Xu Grip will immediately tear Otto's body apart and shatter his Soul Steel head.

Faced with this hopeless situation, Otto finally understood what it meant to have nowhere to turn.

If he wants to take the beacon, he must have the power to overturn the table and threaten the world.

If he wants to have the power to overturn the table and threaten the world, he must face Fu Hua's wrath.

Then comes the most crucial question.

If Otto can't defeat Fu Hua, who has reverted to the "Crimson Heron Immortal," then all his subsequent plans will be nothing but wishful thinking.

Even though he managed to adjust the ratio of Saniate Holy Blood and HSN Serum to the optimal level this month, but...

With this special HSN Serum, can Otto really do anything to Fu Hua?

Fu Hua may not be very bright, but her fighting skills have been honed to perfection over the years.

Although Otto is also very strong, his strength is mainly due to his Soul Steel Body and Void Archive.

Even with the HSN Serum enhanced by the Holy Blood, Otto might not be able to inject the serum into Fu Hua's body before she can open his skull.

In the end, joining forces with God turned out to be my only way out of this predicament?

It's not surprising that Raiden Mei has Quantum Teleportation System.

She was originally the daughter of Raiden Ryoma, the entrepreneur and executor of Anti-Entropy. Now that Schicksal and Anti-Entropy have entered into a temporary cooperation, her father felt at ease entrusting this thing to her...

—Yo! Ah! Shi! M!

This guy really has absolutely no defenses against people he trusts.

According to my plan, she and that damn Yuno shouldn't have grown up so quickly.

However, because Lin Yu was by their side, everything went off track.

Lin Yu, who thirsts for power and revenge, is notorious for his cunning and ruthlessness, not only in the Far East Branch but throughout the entire Schicksal.

With such a lazybones by your side, even the most indolent person would feel embarrassed to continue slacking off.

Moreover, Yuno is also a scroll demon almost identical to Lin Yu, and Raiden Mei's talent is inherently very strong.

Now, as Herrscher, their control over the core might already surpass that of Joachim.

If this continues, I might not even be able to beat the two of them when the time comes.

Otto, who was still a top-tier player three months ago, now finds that his absolute dominance over his juniors has completely disappeared after the version update.

Now this trio is wandering around, and if they go to see old friends or believe Joachim's lies... they can't say anything about Joachim's lies.

If Joachim had told them the truth, they would probably have been hungry even if they only believed half of it.

Now that things have come to this, it's too late to kill them to cover it up.

I didn't even have many cards in my hand.

Should we activate that last trump card hidden in various major cities?

After a crazy idea popped into his head, Otto immediately suppressed it.

He wanted to muddy the waters, but doing so would only make those people angry and serve no real purpose.

Admittedly, there is a chance that an enemy will lose their rationality when they are angry. However, the problem is that there is also a chance that the enemy's anger will increase their combat power.

Otto has very few combat forces available to him now, while the opposing side has very few.

Herrscher, Herrscher, and Herrscher again.

Even the birth of these Herrscher is related to Otto.

With his limited forces, he's no match for the entire Herrscher army.

I must rely on the properties of this thing to break the deadlock in order to have even a sliver of a chance of winning.

Don't panic, Otto.

The darker the future, the more courageous we must be in fighting.

Even this current situation, which is giving me a headache, is much better than the stagnant state of the previous five hundred years.

In a one-on-one situation, I still have the upper hand over most of these guys.

Therefore, as long as we can seize their power, then with the help of my subsequent plans, we should be able to eliminate several high-end combat forces.
