You Have a New Job (Continued)
"Ahem! On our side, Immortal Crimson Heron and Emperor Xuanyuan need no further introduction; all of you from Anti-Entropy are surely familiar with them. Also present are His Book of Cang Xuan of Great Void Mountain, and Miss Anqi, Immortal Crimson Heron's disciple. As for this one..."
The Shenzhou representative looked in Kiana's direction, a hint of puzzlement in his eyes.
I've never heard of any other members from Great Void Mountain. Could this young girl, who looks like a little girl, be some ancient ancestor that was dug up from the ground somewhere?
Anqi immediately began to explain.
"Kiana Kaslana, the Valkyrie of Schicksal, is the eldest niece of Theresa Apolcalypse, the headmistress of the St. Freya Academy. She is present as an observer of Schicksal."
"Um?"
"We all know that Schicksal cannot ignore such a big matter. Rather than letting them use petty tricks to gather intelligence, it would be better for Great Void Mountain to take the lead and let their people listen directly. This can also avoid some unnecessary trouble."
"That makes sense. The Immortal and the Emperor have considered things very thoroughly."
The representative from Shenzhou smiled and said, "In the end, Shenzhou's influence is only in secular matters. Regarding the Mandate of Schicksal, their influence is limited. What we're most worried about this time is the Mandate of Schicksal's reaction. The fact that Great Void Mountain is willing to intervene certainly puts his mind at ease."
It feels good to have someone backing you up!
Kiana kept a straight face, trying her best to hold back her laughter.
They were all just made-up lines. She's some kind of Schicksal's chosen one! She'd rather Otto die suddenly, how could she possibly be here to listen in on his behalf?
In reality, Otto didn't care about Anti-Entropy actions at all. Since it couldn't shake Schicksal's dominance or affect his plans in the short term, why bother interfering with his old friend who had regained his strength over such a trivial matter, right?
"Miss Kiana, welcome. It is truly impolite of me not to have greeted you in advance."
"No need to be so polite. I'm just here to listen. Please do as you please and just pretend I'm not here."
Kiana had a stern face.
It was my first time playing the role of a big shot, and I wasn't used to it, but I felt a little secretly pleased.
Kuerla glanced at Kiana, but her gaze swept over her quickly before she calmly began introducing the members of her side present, including herself as the head of the Shenzhou branch, and several adjutants.
"Cough cough!"
After the usual pleasantries, Cang Xiaoxuan slowly floated up, level with everyone's gaze, and coughed lightly.
Upon receiving the signal, Fu Hua and Ji Lin exchanged a glance and spoke in the order they had prepared beforehand.
"The pace of Honkai is becoming increasingly rapid, and all signs indicate that the test facing the Previous Civilization is imminent. At this time, we warmly welcome Anti-Entropy's willingness to come to Shenzhou. Great Void Mountain is willing to be a witness to this cooperation, and we hope that both sides can put aside unnecessary concerns, have sincere and friendly exchanges, and reach a mutually beneficial cooperation. This is our greatest expectation."
"Neither Crimson Kite nor I are familiar with the current political situation, so you may consider us merely symbolic figures. Feel free to speak your mind, negotiate, consult, and debate as you see fit; we'll just observe. Of course, if there's anything else we can do to help, please speak up. As long as it's for the good of Shenzhou, Crimson Kite and I will never refuse. Alright, everyone from Shenzhou, everyone from Anti-Entropy, please don't be shy, let's begin."
With that, the mission at Great Void Mountain is complete.
The Shenzhou representative, who had already prepared his response, revealed a kind and benevolent smile, looking at the Anti-Entropy members opposite him as if they were family.
Kuerla exchanged a glance with his adjutant beside him, their eyes suddenly sharpening.
"How about we start by selecting a location for the branch headquarters?"
"You are a guest, so please do as you please."
The two sides began a friendly exchange.
Meanwhile, everyone from Great Void Mountain began to lose focus.
Great Void Mountain has already given them the face they deserved. The negotiations and exchanges are none of their business. Just ignore them and patiently wait for the tedious meeting to end.
