Otto [Will Win!]
Everything will end completely at that moment.
Oh, I see... Well then I'll do my best!
At that moment, Kiana suddenly felt as if she had been thrown away by a force.
"Oops!"
At that moment, Lin Yi looked at Stan who had suddenly 'braked' and shouted at Stan.
Stan, your leg!
"Stop meowing, this cat..."
After finally hitting Stan's right leg with the Key of Void, Sirin fired a shot into Stan's left leg and then, panting, spoke to Kiana and Lin Yi.
"I'll deal with it later."
"Without my permission today..."
"—Nobody's leaving!"
I've already finished writing the 20,000 words I mentioned yesterday, so the delay in updating won't work anymore.
Tomorrow...
Fine, to work harder and kill Otto, if I don't finish writing 20,000 words and post them by 10:30 tomorrow night, I'll consider it an overdue update of 20,000 words.
The 20% discount on this book will end tomorrow afternoon, just letting you know.
Going back to writing now, time to go kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!
Chapter 298. Otto [We will win!]
Seeing Stan with both legs broken and reverting to his cat form due to severe injuries, Kiana had to face this cruel reality.
Although Kevin told her that reinforcements would arrive soon, Kiana now felt that the situation was really serious in front of the murderous Sirin.
Since Kiana couldn't find an opportunity to get close enough to use Jizo Mitama, her strength was indeed inferior to Sirin's.
Now that Sirin has been provoked, she has completely overwhelmed Kiana in terms of momentum.
Of course, theoretically speaking, even disregarding the copied Jizo Mitama, the combination of Kiana and Lin Yi is stronger than Sirin alone.
The problem is—how could Kiana possibly let her daughter go to the battlefield?
Sirin, who has always sought revenge against humanity, has been in a state of 'madness' in a sense.
Even if she acknowledges Lin Yi as her daughter, it doesn't mean she won't hold back when she gets carried away with the fight.
"Xiao Yi, go away."
Kiana, who was standing in front of Lin Yi at that moment, spoke to Lin Yi without turning her head.
"Leave this to me."
"But..."
Seeing the murderous Sirin and the fierce Kiana, Lin Yi swallowed back the words, "Stop fighting."
Of course, she didn't want her mother's two personalities to start fighting each other, but the problem was, she wasn't stupid.
If she stays here and says these things at this time, besides angering Sirin, she will also distract Kiana from protecting her, which may result in her holding Kiana back.
As for why she doesn't use the weakened version of the Herrscher Authority to escape now—she would have used it long ago if she could.
After Lin Yi entered the theater, she felt as if the weakened version of the Herrscher Authority within her had been directly taken away by someone, making it completely unusable.
Of course, she can use the power to generate and manipulate plants, as well as the power to release a weakened version of the Constraint Barrier.
The problem is, nobody knows what strange and wonderful things are hidden in this theater.
Misusing one's strength to the point of not even having the strength to escape when encountering an enemy is a mistake only an idiot would make.
Now, after a moment's thought, Lin Yi immediately picked up Stan, who was not on the verge of death but had lost his fighting ability, and began to flee in another direction.
Kiana, meanwhile, was wary of Sirin while keeping an eye on Kevin, waiting for Kevin to tell her the method for 'activating the power of the Kaslana clan '.
Don't overthink it. Right now, all you need to do is continue fighting against your other personality.
Ah, wasn't it supposed to activate the power of the Kaslana clan within me?
Yes, one way to activate the power of the Kaslana clan is to fight against the Honkai.
[You possess talent surpassing your father's, so even without using the awakening potion created with technology left behind by our civilization, you still have a chance to awaken during combat.]
Dad...
Recalling the scenes from fourteen years ago when Siegfried chased and beat Sirin, Kiana broke out in a cold sweat.
I don't think I could awaken to the terrifying level my dad did.
"Yes, it's true. Asking you to awaken to Siegfried's level without an awakening potion is a bit of a stretch."
However, you don't need to awaken to Siegfried's level. Right now, it's enough for you to activate this power so we can find our coordinates.
Listening to Kevin's words, Kiana really felt that her so-called ancestor and the enemy she remembered were not the same person at all.
Although Kevin was speaking in a cold tone with almost no intonation, Kiana could sense that Kevin was actually a hint of concern mixed in with his cold words.
Well... I feel you're even gentler than I imagined.
I won't say anything more, but you must remember that a person with sufficient talent can overcome their limits when facing a great crisis, relying on their own belief.
[Not only Siegfried, but also Kallen Kaslana five hundred years ago, surpassed the limits to suppress Herrscher and successfully sealed one Herrscher.]
Hmm, it's our ancestor Kallen...
Well, no matter what, this fight is inevitable, so...
Kiana, wielding dual pistols, unexpectedly launched an attack on Sirin, who was stronger than her.
—I'm too lazy to think about it anymore!
"Ha, they actually charged up like that."
Seeing Kiana make such a suicidal move, Sirin sneered as she faced her opponent.
"This is the final battle. After I finish you off..."
"—No matter what, I will completely destroy this filthy world!"
Dominion Theater. Somewhere
Meanwhile, Otto, who was lying in wait somewhere, had already obtained some of what he wanted by virtue of the power granted to him by the Dominance Herrscher.
For example, there is more than one Herrscher of the Void power.
Of those who entered the Dominion Theater, only K423 and Lin Yi were 'kidnapped' by Otto.
After kidnapping the mother and daughter, Otto immediately used his Dominion Theater to seize the powers of others, first taking away Kiana's Herrscher Authority and Lin Yi's weakened spatial teleportation abilities.
Honestly, under normal circumstances, Otto would definitely not have stayed in this theater after obtaining the two Herrscher of the Void powers.
Even after seizing the Herrscher Authority, Otto still needs a sufficiently mature Herrscher of the Void because the core is still within the Herrscher's body, and he can only seize the right to use the power.
But rather than loitering here, Otto would definitely want to see if he could find an opportunity to cause more trouble outside.
He is indeed a 'homebody' most of the time, but when action is needed, Otto can instantly switch from homebody mode to ruthless action mode.
Even now, with his plans unchanged, Otto still needs a sufficiently mature Herrscher of the Void, a fully functional Thousand Worlds Annihilation, and a Beacon.
Now that the Herrscher of the Void has been bound and her powers taken away, all he needs now is the Thousand Worlds Annihilation and the Beacon.
Although Otto didn't manage to get his hands on the beacon, he felt he still had a chance to acquire it.
In the month or so since Kevin's 'release from prison', Otto, after analyzing a large amount of data, can confirm that although Kevin's Stigmata Plan was rubbish, he genuinely wanted to save humanity.
In other words, as long as Otto still controls the firing switches of those weapons, he has the power to threaten Kevin.
Otto had no interest in destroying major human cities.
But now that he's been forced into this situation, if he doesn't flip the table now, he'll miss his chance.
In this situation, he would not hesitate for even the slightest bit when it came to 'pressing the button,' after all...
Otto was already used to killing others for his own plans.
Of course, his opponents are not without a solution.
Welt Yang, the rival Otto acknowledged, now possesses the Jizo Mitama.
The Jizo Mitama not only naturally counters Otto's Rebirth Program and Soul Steel Body, but also directly kills all modern weapons.
In other words, Otto now has to break out and threaten Kevin before Welt digs out all the 'landmines' with Jizo Mitama.
Otherwise, once his landmines are all removed, he'll use his head to threaten Kevin.
The same applies to Su's side.
Otto's threat is not only directed at the World Serpent, but also at Schicksal and Anti-Entropy.
He didn't expect his nuclear bomb tactic to make the enemy immediately surrender the beacon, but it was the best solution Otto could come up with at the moment.
But, but it just so happens at this time...
—God, who had been supporting him ever since he was granted the core, is now interfering with his use of the Herrscher of the Void's powers and his tactical retreat!
Otto can no longer fly around using his Herrscher of the Void powers, and he can't even activate his Domination powers to return to the real world.
Otto, who had communicated with God several times, could only end their conversation with a 'Kolosten curse' in the end.
He realized that his 'boss' wasn't planning to give him a chance to run away after he received his 'salary'.
Currently, besides Kiana and Lin Yi, who were kidnapped by Otto, there are several other people in the Dominion Theater who are not important to Otto's plan.
The Valkyrie of Schicksal, Bronya Zaychek, Murata Himeko, Anna Sania, and Li Sushang, along with Xing Mar, a member of Anti-Entropy imprisoned in the Far East Branch, and a boy named Chen Tianwu.
According to Otto's current speculation, apart from Xing Mar, who has already obtained the core of Dominance Core, and Li Sushang, who was tested by Otto while she was asleep and had little adaptability to the Herrscher Core, the remaining four are all single-core Herrscher Candidate chosen by God.
Currently, there are four Herrscher have not yet awakened: Ice, Flame, Rock, and Erosion, which correspond to these four individuals.
Then three of them were right under Otto's nose. He really didn't expect that there were three Valkyrie on Schicksal's side who had the adaptability to the Herrscher Core.
Now that things have come to this point, God has taken the initiative to pull these four into the Dominion Theater, which Otto believes is definitely to make them fully 'awaken'.
As for how to get these four people to awaken, once they reached this point, Honkai suddenly became a hands-off manager.
Otto's current control over the Dominion Theater, besides forcibly recruiting people and seizing the right to use its powers, has another characteristic.
That is to create 'dolls'.
These puppets are created by extracting the consciousness of some of the deceased from the past and infusing it into the puppet, thus generating a puppet similar to the original.
Of course, Otto had complete control over these puppets, so Otto could naturally use those memories to prescribe the right poison.
However, Otto did not forget one thing.
Although he already had his own plan, he still had some other thoughts in his mind.
Unfortunately, the consciousness that the Dominion Theater can 'control' is only from recent years and is randomly assigned.
If it weren't for the fact that after these four key figures entered the theater, Otto used them as a starting point to trace the connection between their consciousnesses and his own, it wouldn't have been so easy for Otto to launch an operation against them.
He could use Feathered Dust or have other 'Otto's' who were assigned 'weakened versions of the Herrscher Authority read the other party's consciousness and then create a fake puppet.
The problem is that this approach is not only inefficient, but also lacks realism and is easily detected by the other party.
He finally realized just how anxious his 'boss' was.
If he can't satisfy God at this point, he probably can forget about continuing to carry out his plan.
At a time like this, doing things half-heartedly will only lead him and God into an even more troublesome situation.
God still has the Finality as a backup plan, but Otto truly has no backup plan left.
Today's events were unexpected; otherwise, according to Otto's plan, he would have threatened Rita's parents first to force Rita to assist him in completing his subsequent plans.
Then spend a little time gradually eroding the key personnel at the Schicksal Headquarters, turning them into pawns after they've lost all hope.
