Baige Descends; The سقوط of the Floating Island of Schicksal
"You don't need to wait for Cecilia anymore, because she's already here. Look, she's right here."
"Lady Cecilia /Captain!" x6
Otto threw the Black Abyss White Flower on the ground, and at the same time, two Valkyrie pushed Cecilia forward.
The morale of the Snow Wolf Squad collapsed instantly.
"Impossible! How could the captain have lost!"
"Hehe, nothing is impossible in this world. What is considered impossible is just something that has not yet happened. But even so... I have also suffered heavy losses."
Otto glanced at Cecilia, who was bound by shackles, his eyes filled with deep fear and murderous intent.
Cecilia's strength far exceeded his expectations.
One person alone destroyed more than sixty of his Soul Steel clones, and these Soul Steel clones were all Valkyrie of the lower A rank.
Furthermore, given the inherent strength of Soul Steel and its Honkai Energy, it is highly unusual that Cecilia, a newly promoted S-Rank Valkyrie, could achieve such a level of combat.
"Grandpa, what despicable means did you use?!"
"Theresa, have you betrayed me too?"
"You have no right to decide Cecilia's future or arrange her life. I will stand against Grandpa because you did something wrong. This is my anger as her friend."
Theresa threw her weapon with all her might.
Several Schicksal Divine Machine immediately deployed protective shields to block Otto's path, but they were directly pierced through by this domineering power.
Although the armor of the Divine Machine formed another layer of obstruction, the tip of the spear still managed to pierce Otto's chest slightly.
"... Not bad, well, the power of emotion is beyond my imagination. Cecilia became strong and brave because of love and defied me, and now Theresa, this shot you threw in anger has exceeded your past limits."
"It seems I must now include emotions in my calculations, since you have proven that this intangible thing can indeed unleash power beyond my imagination."
"And... as you expected, Theresa, I did use less-than-honorable methods, but what does it matter? After all, I'm not exactly a good person."
As Otto spoke, he brought out a huge Golden Cross.
"Judah!!"
Theresa opened her eyes wide and recognized her partner.
"The Zero Rated Power of the Oath of Judas is truly incredible. Even S-Rank Valkyrie would be instantly weakened to the point of being insignificant. I really don't know how the Previous Civilization managed to defeat the Herrscher of Binding," Otto exclaimed.
"I knew it! Otherwise, even if Grandpa had more Soul Steel Body, Cecilia could never have lost!"
Theresa clenched her small hands. The God's Grace Barrier, which could completely eliminate Honkai Energy and greatly suppress other energies, was almost enough to decide the outcome of the battle once it was used.
"Methods don't matter, results are everything. Now I'm giving you one last chance to surrender. After all, you are all Valkyrie with great potential, and it would be a waste for you to die like this."
Otto looked at the Snow Wolf Squad and Theresa and said.
Normally he would have already ordered her to be shot, but Theresa was one of the few people he had a soft spot for, and the Snow Wolf Squad's strength had exceeded his expectations.
She is a super A-Rank Valkyrie is capable of growing into an S-class Valkyrie in the future. Even Otto would not be willing to kill her, since there have never been five S-Rank Valkyrie at the same time in the history of Schicksal.
He didn't want to ruin such a promising tool.
"Don't even think about it!!" x6
However, the girls unanimously refused.
Their weapons were all aimed at Otto; there was no need for discussion, they already knew what they were going to do.
Reclaim your captain and break through the encirclement!
"Alright, this response is within my expectations. In that case, let's test the results of our research on you."
Otto shrugged and then snapped his fingers.
The next second, the Schicksal Divine Machine fired a cannonball at Theresa and the others. After the cannonball exploded, red liquid rained down and landed on the girls.
"Damn it! Could this be some kind of venom?!"
"No, this taste... it's blood!"
"What happened? My power suddenly disappeared."
All six were taken aback. They could clearly feel the Honkai Energy within their bodies rapidly dissipating, especially Theresa, a Fusion Warrior, who was so weak that she could barely stand.
"Not bad, not bad~ It seems the clone of the Schariac Blood, which can eliminate Honkai Energy in an instant, has really been successfully completed." Otto nodded with a pleased smile.
"Damn it, this is why you've been preventing Cecilia from leaving Schicksal Headquarters!"
"That's right. After all, if such a precious Holy Blood holder falls into the hands of outsiders, she would be a great threat. And now that Holy Blood can be successfully cloned, I don't need to fear even if Herrscher -level enemy appears in the future."
Otto's mood improved somewhat as he watched the blood rain that was not disgusting but rather somewhat sacred. Then, looking at the six people who could do nothing more, he spoke.
"Guards, lock them in the jail and let them reflect on their actions. It would be too much of a waste to kill them like this."
He has many ways to win people back.
Otto already had a few ideas, such as using Feather of the Wind to modify Cecilia and the others' memories.
At that time, whether it's getting her to obediently agree to the marriage, making the Snow Wolf Squad his pawns again, or getting Theresa to reconcile with him, it will all be a piece of cake.
However, just as the women were about to be captured.
Buzz—!
Suddenly, an unparalleled pressure struck.
"What's going on?!"
Everyone felt as if they were carrying a huge mountain on their backs, and at the same time, a sense of weightlessness came over them. The entire Schicksal Floating Island was falling continuously under the powerful gravity.
Boom--!!!
Eventually, the Floating Island landed on the Mediterranean Sea below, and the huge splash of water and the rising seawater washed over the entire Schicksal Headquarters.
Otto's expression turned grave: (Gravity ability? Could it be that Welt has brought Anti-Entropy to attack? No, that's not right! With his current strength, he couldn't possibly do such a thing. Who could it be?)
The next moment.
Tap, tap, tap, tap...
In such a chaotic environment, a White Youth appeared out of nowhere. Although his footsteps were crisp, each step was like a heavy hammer striking the hearts of everyone.
Its overwhelming presence drew everyone's attention.
(It's him!)
Fu Hua, hidden in the shadows, widened her eyes. Her intention to intervene vanished, and unconsciously she reached out her hand towards the white figure, as if yearning for something.
"!!!"
Otto looked at the familiar platinum mask. Even though the crystal covering the eyes of the mask concealed his Golden Eyes, it was still like two sharp blades that made it difficult for him to meet his eyes.
"It's you!!"
"Otto Apocalypse, if you truly wish to die, I can grant you the most excruciating death in the world, but even that death cannot atone for the sins you have committed."
Bai Ge, who had descended upon this place, said in a cold voice.
With a casual flick of his wrist, he unleashed the Cleansing Thunder of Seven Sins, shaped like War Scythe, and instantly a deep gash hundreds of meters long was slashed across the already sunken Schicksal Sky Island.
"How did you end up here... Is there a traitor among you?!"
Otto's expression was grave. He actually had a plan to use this opportunity to lure Bai Ge in and kill him, but Bai Ge came too fast! Less than half an hour had passed since Cecilia's betrayal.
Therefore, there is only one answer.
A traitor within Schicksal informed this person.
(Who is it? There are just too many suspects. Any of the two hundred-plus Valkyrie he captured could be a traitor. No, now is not the time to think about that.)
Otto stared intently at the White Youth before him. When he first met Bai Ge, he felt an inexplicable urge to kill him, to kill him at all costs.
This person is the biggest threat in my life!
Otto Apocalypse was a cautious yet arrogant man who never considered anyone a rival. There were very few people in the world who even he took seriously, yet...
Only when facing Bai Ge.
He discovered that he actually had the mindset of a challenger!
Otto took a deep breath, then looked directly into Bai Ge's sharp gaze, into the eyes of this Gods boy.
"It's been a long time. Are you still unwilling to take off your mask? You won't even tell me your name."
"Because you don't deserve it now."
"Ha, it's been so many years since anyone dared to speak to me in such a tone. Well then, to satisfy my curiosity, I'll have to kill you first, then remove your mask and see your true face."
"You? You're dreaming."
"Whether it's a dream or not, try it and you'll find out!"
Otto then gave the order to the Schicksal Divine Machine.
Instantly, all the divine machines rushed towards Bai Ge, as if they wanted to smash him to death.
However, the Golden Eyes behind the platinum mask held a deep contempt, as if looking at a few paper toys.
Bai Ge slightly swung the War Scythe in his hand, but no one present could see his movement clearly. In an instant, these Schicksal Divine Machine were cut in half and turned into a pile of scrap metal.
