"Lord Bai Ge, what are your orders?"

"Fighter mode, head to the Schicksal Oceania Branch."

"Received, Little Rabbit!"

With a cool mecha transformation, the Project Bunny turned into a fighter jet and silently hovered outside Bai Ge's window. He opened the hatch and sat inside.

Without requiring manual operation, the Project Bunny automatically flew towards the Oceania Branch of Schicksal.

"Coordinates set complete, navigation log activated. Third secret trip to the Oceania Branch Schicksal this month."

"Don't record it, delete it. Since it's a secret, we can't leave any trace of it."

"Yes, Lord Bai Ge."

Half an hour later.

The Bai Ge Man has already arrived in the New Zealand region, and he has easily found the base of Schicksal there.

At the same time, it activated its own quantumization ability, completely ignoring the defense system of the Schicksal Base, which was several times more heavily guarded than the military bases of many major powers!

Bai Ge, now Quantum Ghost, swaggered through the wall and entered the room, finding the residence of a certain experimental subject girl.

"Hi, Miss Wendy, did you miss me?"

"Hmm? That voice is... Ghostly Mister?"

A girl in a pitiful state suddenly brightened up.

"It's me. You look even worse than when we last met. Aren't you going to consider letting me take the gem?"

Bai Ge, maintaining his invisible Quantum Ghost mode, spoke to the girl who was lying in bed enduring pain.

This person is Wendy.

The Herrscher of Wind in the original destiny of Current Civilization!

Although she is still in an unawakened state, she is currently an experimental subject of the Schicksal Artificial Herrscher Project, using herself as a container for the gems, and is an extremely pitiful girl.

"I'm sorry, Ghostly Mister, I cannot give you the Gem of Desire. My mission is to adapt to this gem and become Herrscher who fights for humanity."

"Sigh~ Another stubborn little girl. I admire your awareness, but handing the gem over to me is the most perfect choice. Why don't you just trust me this once?"

Bai Ge looked at the girl in front of him with a helpless expression.

Wendy has short hair that is black on the outside and blue on the inside, with a tuft of hair sticking up on her head. She has black eyes and a very pretty face, and her personality is as gentle as Seele's.

Although she looks sickly now, she was once a highly skilled A-Rank Valkyrie, and even had the potential to become the third S-Rank Valkyrie of the current Schicksal.

Actually Bai Ge should call Wendy "senior sister".

Because Wendy was originally Valkyrie who graduated from St. Freya, and was Theresa's best student.

However, after graduation, she didn't stay at the academy but entered Schicksal, and then... this girl's life took a tragic turn.

Wendy, who was supposed to become the third S-Rank Valkyrie Schicksal Rita, was found to have a very high compatibility with the Gem of Desire, so she was tricked into becoming an experimental subject of Otto's Artificial Herrscher project.

The Oceania Branch transplanted the Gem of Desire into Wendy's leg. Although she and the Gem of Desire had a high compatibility rate, she was ultimately not a perfect Herrscher body like Mei.

Wendy failed to master the power of the Gem of Desire, and the gem also caused her to become paralyzed in both legs.

However, because the gem was only in Wendy's body, her body was used as a container.

"You had a better future. Look at your legs, you can't feel anything now. Listen to me, give up your Gem of Desire, and I will help you recover."

Bai Ge patiently persuaded her, this being the third time he had infiltrated the Oceania Branch in the past two weeks, all in the hope that Wendy would voluntarily give up her Gem of Desire.

This wasn't just about gaining power for myself; more importantly, it was about saving this girl.

But...

"No, I can't! As long as I can master the power of the gems, I can protect humanity from the Honkai. This is my mission as Valkyrie, and I will not give up!"

Wendy always stubbornly refused.

Bai Ge felt both respect and helplessness each time, while her resentment towards a certain shill deepened.

Look at that damned bastard Green Tuo, what has he done to this kind and brave girl? Bai Ge really wants to crush that guy's Soul Steel face into pieces bit by bit!

Although it's not impossible for Bai Ge to forcibly seize the core.

But he still wanted to respect Wendy's will... The key point was that when he tried to take action once, the girl fought back fiercely and almost brought the entire base over.

"As expected of Deli Sha's daughter, Miao Nansheng is really stupid. Never mind, let me check how your body is first."

"Ghostly Mister?"

"Let me make it clear beforehand: as long as you don't remove the gem, even my healing abilities won't be able to restore your legs; I can only help reduce your pain."

Bai Ge maintains the power of using the quantum state.

The Abyss Flower of creation bloomed on Wendy's body, healing her body that had been corrupted by the Herrscher Core.

"Eek!"

Wendy accidentally let out a bad sound.

But Bai Ge's treatment was just too comfortable. For her, who had been suffering from core torment, it was like a godsend, and all the pain and discomfort disappeared instantly.

After realizing she had made a sound, Wendy blushed slightly, but she still spoke softly.

"Thank you, Ghostly Mister."

Third update. Please give me flowers, votes, and tips.

Chapter 143, Saving Wendy, Gem of Desire (Please subscribe automatically)

"Ghostly Mister? That's a strange title..."

Bai Ge looked at Wendy, who was fast asleep, and his mind replayed the memories of her.

Since first encountering this Herrscher of Wind from the original storyline half a month ago, he has been diligently studying the information in the student archives of the St. Freya Academy.

Wendy had many titles at that time, including being a rare genius since the creation of St. Freya, a future S-Rank Valkyrie, and a girl as free as the wind.

Her specialty is dual-wielding gunfighting, similar to Kiana's, but it's different from Kaslana Gun Fu, where she might fire a shot to add to the fun with punches and kicks.

Wendy's gunfighting style is like a dance, like a storm. Her specialty is dancing on the edge of Emperor-Class Honkai Beast's blade and shooting bullets at close range.

(It's a pity that such an interesting character like the Herrscher of the Void, with such beautiful legs, is paralyzed and unable to move due to the Herrscher Core. What a waste, such a waste.)

Bai Ge sighed, feeling sorry for the girl's misfortune.

Instinct urged him to quickly remove the core from the girl. Once the Herrscher Core of Wind's core was gone, the power of the Herrscher of Life and Death would instantly heal Wendy.

But his own reason, and Wendy's will, prevented Bai Ge from doing so.

(Now is not the perfect time to save her. Rather than me intervening now, it would be better to wait for Wendy to go berserk and destroy this branch herself, and then I can take her and the gem. If all goes well, I can even frame the World-Snake.)

If things had gone according to their original fate, Wendy, now Herrscherization, would have been able to wipe out the entire Oceania Branch.

When the time comes, Bai Ge will appear disguised as the Gray Serpent, kidnap the girl, and deliberately leave some traces of the World Serpent.

This would allow them to mislead Schicksal while simultaneously causing trouble for World Serpent, thus weakening both sides and giving St. Freya Academy more time to develop.

But not giving up on the core is also Wendy's own will.

Although she was misled, she was indeed prepared to dedicate her life to fighting for the protection of humanity.

However, this is also the ideal, perfect script.

Sometimes, perfection isn't that important.

At least in Bai Ge's impulsive view, nothing was more important than ending the girl's suffering as soon as possible.

"... Looks like we need to prepare a backup plan."

Bai Ge thought to himself.

Although rational and impulsive thoughts are completely different, the former is currently in control of his mind, but Bai Ge has more confidence in the latter, after all, he is an emotional person by nature.

And...

"Once is acceptable, twice is acceptable, but three times is not. Liu Bei visited Zhuge Liang three times and finally persuaded him to come back. This time, we will definitely bring you back."

Unlike the previous two visits where they only met once in the evening and returned before dawn, this time Bai Ge planned to spend the whole day with Wendy as a ghost that no one could see.

He believed in continuing to watch over them.

I 'absolutely couldn't resist'!

The next day, the Oceania Branch.

"I haven't slept this well in a long time."

Wendy stretched her limbs as she woke up from her dream.

Although the girl's arms were already slender and beautiful enough, her most perfect legs were still paralyzed and unable to move, which was a pity.

"It's all thanks to Ghostly Mister."

Wendy said to herself.

Unlike usual, when she was awakened by pain, this time she slept until she woke up naturally. She even had a rare sweet dream last night, in which Wendy discovered that she had lost the Gem of Desire and returned to her time at the St. Freya Academy.

Bai Ge shielded her from her pain, allowing her to relive her happiest student days in her dreams.
