Your Uncle Here Is Really About to Get Angry (Continued)

[Isn't it normal for a girl to dress up carefully after receiving a date invitation from her crush?]

It seems so...

So, what are you waiting for?

[Fight! Fight! Fight! Knight Lin Yu will fight this final battle today—]

Get out of here!

What final battle?!

Oh, it's definitely not the final battle.

[But this system is asking you whether you're ready to fight or not. Oh, given the market conditions, you have no choice but to fight.]

What does that mean?

Before the system could say anything more, Mei, who had walked up to Lin Yu, suddenly changed her usual behavior and naturally took Lin Yu's arm.

"Lin Yu, where are you planning to take Yuno and me to play today?"

"Yes, senior."

Seeing that Mei had finally taken the initiative, Yuno's resentment dissipated somewhat.

"After you took the initiative to ask us out yesterday, you don't want to say that you're not prepared for anything today, do you?"

Hearing the cheers and the clicking of cameras around him, Lin Yu suddenly realized that he had been trying a bit too hard.

Schicksal is an organization that fights against the Honkai, so why do you guys like to gossip so much?

Looks like there's still not enough work... Damn it, once these events are over, I'm definitely going to get everyone to work overtime together!

Of course, the future is the future; Lin Yu still needs to solve the immediate problem.

"How should I put it? Today I will satisfy you."

After using the Quantum Teleportation System to send the three of them to the Shenzhou region, which Schicksal had the fewest informants, Lin Yu said helplessly to Mei, who was still clinging to him.

"Mei, can you let me go first?"

"Now, let's get down to business."

Really...

—I see.

Hearing Lin Yu's words, Mei and Yuno breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, a sense of disappointment welled up inside them.

This is definitely Lin Yu's style.

Our seniors took the initiative to invite us; it turns out it's all for the 'work' of fighting the Honkai.

But... let's get down to business.

Now that we've finished discussing the important matters, we should just do what needs to be done.

Looking at Lin Yu in front of her, Yuno felt...

—Senior, you can't just call the two of us out just to finish our business and get back to headquarters, can you?

No, he has no choice now.

Even if I don't have a chance, I'll create one for Mei!

This is for Mei, and also for my seniors. For both of them, I must do my best!

"Alright, stop rolling your eyes."

Seeing that Yuno was clearly preoccupied, Lin Yu said irritably.

"Come over here with me."

Yes~

Seeing Yuno follow Lin Yu's footsteps so obediently, Mei couldn't help but sigh that, just as the Herrscher of Thunder had said, there was truly no sense of distance between Yuno and Lin Yu.

If Yuno had had those kinds of thoughts, she probably would have succeeded long ago.

Yeah, but they're so kind as to willingly play support for you, so—what are you going to do?

Of course, we can't let Yuno down.

In the following time, Lin Yu and Yuno Mei exchanged information at a teahouse under the Tai Xu Sword Sect.

As for why he chose this kind of place to exchange intelligence, it was purely for safety reasons.

Perhaps in the past, Otto defeated Fu Hua Shenzhou, but in reality, he never protected Shenzhou at all. He secretly planted some spies on Shenzhou's side behind Fu Hua's back.

But now, the probability of these hidden agents existing...

Fu Hua is just honest, not really stupid.

Now that she's become Herrscher of Reason, if she expands her powers a little, catching the mole will be a piece of cake.

Two days ago, Lin Yu spoke with Fu Hua afterwards.

While Fu Hua was suppressing the Herrscher Persona on Tai Xu Mountain, she wasn't completely idle.

During this period, Fu Hua not only taught the Tai Xu Sword Qi to all martial artists in the Tai Xu Sword Sect who were qualified to learn this unique skill, but also assisted the higher-ups of Shenzhou in catching all the traitors within Shenzhou.

Not to mention Schicksal, Anti-Entropy, World Serpent, and even other countries have sent people to Shenzhou to try to steal military secrets.

After all, even though the Taixu True Technique used by Shenzhou before the Immortals' Reappearance was a beggar's version of the Tai Xu Sword Qi, and the mechanical patrols they created were a youthful version of the Divine Machine and Titan, these technologies were still enough to make other countries drool.

With such a vast territory Shenzhou, the probability of Honkai is naturally high.

However, in the past five hundred years, since the disappearance of the immortals, Shenzhou has managed to resolve all the Honkai events that have occurred in its vast territory without interfering with the Mandate of Schicksal. This is enough to show that Shenzhou's mechanical patrols and the Taixu True Technique are ridiculously powerful treasures compared to other forces.

Of course, even if other forces coveted these technologies, now that Fu Hua had taken action, their desires were futile.

Fu Hua's efforts, Shenzhou now has the fewest internal traitors among the major powers.

In Lin Yu's opinion, if he had to choose a place where he could feel safe enough to talk, the teahouse set up by the Tai Xu Sword Sect for its specialists to exchange information would be one of them.

"So, just like Bronya predicted, you knew all along?"

Listening to the information Lin Yu gave her, Mei wasn't angry at all that Lin Yu had kept these things from everyone for so long.

Compared to the unnecessary atmosphere, Mei felt only heartache at this moment.

It turns out that Lin Yu, who had secretly learned so much intelligence, had already begun his operation.

At the time, I thought he seemed to be in a bad mood because the Herrscher of Thunder could descend at any moment and take his life.

Looking back now, given that Otto allowed things to go as they pleased and Cocolia took the initiative to act as a demon, if I had done something drastic, not only would millions of people in Changkong City have died, but Kiana's Herrscher Persona would have also awakened.

Under such immense pressure, Lin Yu still used his own methods to train my mind, thereby helping me suppress the erosion from the Honkai.

[Hmph, don't be too moved. Ultimately, his actions are just for his own benefit.]

I don't think Lin Yu is a coward who fears death.

He was certainly not a coward; if he were, then there would be no one in the world who wasn't afraid of death.

[But Mei, you've probably forgotten one thing— Lin Yu has been trying to take revenge on the Honkai.]

Even the Herrscher Core he possesses is a 'Honkai Energy' binding core. The fundamental reason why such a person has been taking action is simply to exact revenge on the Honkai.

Perhaps you are right, but...

He saved me and everyone else; that's an indisputable fact.

So, what are you planning to do?

Stopping Lin Yu's revenge against the Honkai... I can't do that, and there's no need for me to.

All I can do now is try my best to help him as he tries to achieve this dream.

Oh, for example?

Soothe his mind and let him fight with a more relaxed attitude.

[You keep saying you're doing this for Lin Yu, but all you think about is yourself.]

To put it bluntly, aren't you just lusting after his body?

I don't deny that, so...

Today, I must succeed!

"Alright, the reason I'm telling you all this is so that you can fully understand that Bronya's speculation is not wrong at all."

Unaware of the subtle changes in Mei's heart, Lin Yu took a sip of the iced milk in front of him and spoke to the two of them in a very relaxed manner.

"I didn't feel comfortable speaking up before, but now that everyone knows Otto is no good, things are much easier for me."

"Hey, to be honest, before I couldn't speak up, I was really worried that you guys would be fooled by that scoundrel."

Hearing Lin Yu's worried words, Mei and Yuno exchanged glances and indeed saw a trace of lingering fear in their companion's eyes.

Putting everything else aside, before Bronya revealed the truth, the two of them really did consider Otto a trustworthy person.

If Otto had planned to use the two of them to do something bad beforehand, would the two of them be able to keep up with the situation...?

It goes without saying that, in the face of Otto, a natural-born con artist, the two of them would most likely be unable to think straight.

This man could deceive Schicksal for five hundred years, so deceiving two young girls with no social experience would be no difficult task for him at all.

As for Lin Yu now, after saying these words, he felt that the accelerated Honkai was not entirely a bad thing.

While the accelerated Honkai heightened our sense of urgency, it also disrupted Otto's plans, successfully dragging him into the mire as well.

Hey, if we follow the original story, Otto, who has been in charge of Schicksal for five hundred years, could have easily completed his plan over these few years and brought all the factors he needed into his hands.

When that time comes, we'll be facing a bunch of rubbish, False God.

Now, not only has Otto not gathered all the necessary factors, but he also lacks sufficient troops, both low-end and high-end.

Bianca and Rita saw through his true colors. His strength was already what it was before he became False God. If you had to include someone else, the only one would be the female sword immortal that Su and Old Yang mentioned.

Li Sushang, this woman is considered a die-hard Otto fan.

Even though in the original story she learned from Bianca's words that Otto was doing something wrong, she still used the excuse of 'He saved me, so I have to help him fight first before I help you guys' to forcibly replace Fu Hua, who was a high-level combatant.

Conversely, if this woman is dealt with beforehand, then Otto will be left with almost no high-end combat power.

Hmm, I forgot to ask before, so this woman is now...

"Boom!"

The three, who suddenly sensed a powerful Honkai Energy, simultaneously manifested their weapons and looked at the gate that had been instantly 'annihilated' with hostile expressions.

"Ha... ha... ha... Sure enough, there are people here."

At the gate, the three of them simultaneously saw a woman dressed in 'ancient costume'.

Behind the woman, Li Pu, who was an acquaintance of Lin Yu, looked at Li Sushang with a face full of despair.

"Grandma, why are you disturbing our distinguished guests here?!"

Li Pu, who was originally in charge of the management of this area, immediately notified the people at the stronghold not to disturb Lin Yu's actions after receiving news of his subordinate's visit today.

After all, although Lin Yu is now a member of Schicksal, judging from his actions and his identity, Lin Yu is considered to be one of the 'insiders' of the Shenzhou forces.

Now that Lin Yu wants to discuss matters, he comes to Shenzhou first. In Li Pu's view, although it is not a deliberate attempt to curry favor, it is ultimately a sign of trust.

Lin Yu, one of the strongest people in the world, has taken the initiative to trust the Shenzhou forces, so the Shenzhou forces should naturally treat him with the best attitude.

But to his utter surprise, Li Sushang, who had been helping them beat up the Honkai Beast, suddenly seemed to have lost her mind and shouted, "There is very strong Honkai Energy here!" as she charged straight into the stronghold.

He wanted to stop the other person, but the problem was...

—This woman isn't some husky you can just casually fool around with. When she gets serious, she's practically a half-Godzilla. Even if Li Pu is a strong young member of the Tai Xu Sword Sect, there's no way he could stop her.

Hearing Li Pu's words, which were filled with despair, Li Sushang also realized that her actions were indeed somewhat inappropriate.

"I just want to see my grandmaster, so..."

Li Sushang, who had just damaged the gate, suddenly made a fist-and-palm gesture towards Lin Yu.

"Li Sushang, the Supreme Freedom Sect, pays respects to Lin Yu..."

After a moment's hesitation, Li Sushang asked Lin Yu with a troubled expression.

"Young Master Lin Yu, I..."
