Theresa: Xia Ling, that wicked woman must have tricked you! / Kiana: I've been through too much already. The walls around my heart are unbreakable.
"Where did you learn this strange way of using Corrosion Power...? I don't remember you ever connecting to the internet, right? How do you know about tentacles?"
Little E's body stiffened instantly.
Even Ling, who was eavesdropping in the shadows and had been "corrupting" Little E, froze for a moment.
Fortunately, Ling had entrusted Little E with completing some relatively ordinary event nodes before, and among them was the Easter egg node in the Golden Courtyard.
"Ah... this is something I accidentally found in the junk data generated in the Dream of the Painter area..."
In Little E of quick thinking, Xiao Shi cleverly passed the buck.
I'm sorry, Sister Griseo... Anyway, Xia Ling already knows about your masterpieces, so please take the blame for me again!
"Ah, so it was Griseo drew it. That makes no difference."
As expected, Xia Ling had no doubt about Little E's statement.
"Alright, now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, let's get to work quickly. It's time to bring the Elysian Realm trial back for everyone to see."
Liuba Guwu Xilinlinlin Wuqun teases "But..."
Xia Ling couldn't help but think of another headache-inducing problem.
I hope Theresa won't harbor too much hostility towards Elysia because of what happened to me...
Chapter Sixty-Three Theresa: Xia Ling, you must have been deceived by this wicked woman!
"Sister Xia Ling..."
Above Vienna, a transport plane is speeding toward the Schicksal Headquarters.
"Is it okay for us to just walk straight to the floating island like this? Our transport plane seems to be borrowed from World Serpent..."
Although it had been a long time since Mei had returned to Schicksal, she still vaguely remembered that the last time she came to this place, she was facing protective nets and mechs.
"It's okay. Compared to its radar, I think the three Herrscher Core of the two of us combined will attract more attention."
Xia Ling comforted her, "Look, we've just landed, and people are already here to welcome us... uh..."
Looking at Theresa, who had come to greet her not far away, Xia Ling fell silent.
She patted Mei on the shoulder and said sadly.
"Mei, why don't you catch up with the headmaster first?"
"And what about you, Sister Xia Ling?"
"I'll go hide Theresa's 'torture device' first, otherwise you probably won't see your Sister Xia Ling for the next few days."
"?"
Before Mei could react, Xia Ling vanished right in front of Mei.
"Oh, this..."
Mei's lips twitched slightly.
"Sister Xia Ling, are you sure that you and the headmaster really made up on the same day you had that fight...?"
"Fighting? What fighting?"
Theresa, who had just walked over, asked curiously.
"Welcome back, Mei. Everyone has missed you these past few days."
"By the way, where's Xia Ling? I just saw her here."
"Uh... Sister Xia Ling probably, maybe, possibly... ran away?"
Although it had been a long time since they last met, the familiar storyline of Theresa capturing Xia Ling still gave Mei a feeling of returning to the past.
"She ran away? Oh well, it doesn't matter. We'll go back and look for her later."
To Mei's surprise, Theresa did not arrest Xia Ling immediately, but instead chose to take her for a tour of the Schicksal Headquarters first.
"Is the headmaster really not going to do anything about Sister Xia Ling this time?"
"It's alright, I already guessed what she was planning."
Theresa chuckled, "Look, don't I look like I'm missing something?"
"Something's missing..." Mei glanced at Theresa's petite figure. Apart from the different clothes, the headmistress seemed no different from the last time they met, but Mei did have a feeling that something was missing.
"Judah?"
"You guessed right~" Theresa smiled, the huge Golden Cross behind her was now nowhere to be seen.
"I hope Sister Xia Ling is alright..."
So, after giving Mei a general overview of the Schicksal Headquarters and "handing over" Mei to Bronya, who had just finished training, Theresa leisurely returned to her office.
And, incidentally, I also gained a Xia Ling who was tightly bound by Judah.
"Gulp... Kill me, I will not submit."
"Still slurping? Hurry up and come out. I'm starting to wonder if you've started to like this feeling."
Theresa, her face full of black lines, patted Xia Ling and said, "Stop pretending. You clearly have the Power of Restraint. Are you addicted to role-playing?"
"Hey-hey..."
Seeing that Theresa didn't seem to be upset, Xia Ling easily broke free of the chains and slumped into Theresa's large office chair.
"This is the position of bishop. Xia Ling, are you trying to usurp it?"
Theresa put her hands on her hips, about to say something more, when Xia Ling grabbed her and put her on her lap.
"That way, it won't count as me usurping the throne, right?"
While enjoying the soft touch of Theresa nestled in her arms, Xia Ling skillfully turned on Theresa's computer and began to look up the recent events that had occurred in Schicksal.
A moment later, she breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that nothing major happened in the world during her time indulging in the Elysian Realm, and the World Serpent's Stigmata Project still went unnoticed, probably still proceeding in secret.
The few controversies that have arisen are probably the heated discussions surrounding the change of Bishop of Schicksal.
"It seems the world situation is relatively stable... That's good. It seems we have plenty of time to conduct the Elysian Realm trial."
"Elysian Realm? Trial?"
The terms that Xia Ling used left Theresa somewhat bewildered.
"Yes, that's also my main purpose for going to the World Serpent this time."
"Theresa, you should know that there are some pioneers of Previous Civilization in the world, such as Fu Hua, Kevin, Sue... but they all belonged to a common group in Previous Civilization."
"When the Previous Civilization was about to perish, these people chose to use a special technology to copy their memories and consciousness and store them as data on a large server. The name of that server is Elysian Realm."
As she spoke, Xia Ling gave Theresa a general description of the Elysian Realm and part of how she met Elysia.
After all, she felt that it wasn't right to keep the issue of Elysia a secret from Theresa forever. Besides, if she really wanted to keep it from Theresa, she wouldn't have let Kiana know about Elysia in the first place.
What else can we do? Everyone is my wings.
"You mean that shortly after you transmigrated, your system established a connection with the Elysian Realm?"
"So it's possible to directly connect to the Elysian Realm in dreams?"
"Is this why you know so much intelligence about Previous Civilization?"
"Yes, yes." Xia Ling nodded repeatedly.
"Then... what about that person named Elysia?"
Theresa's penetrating gaze was fixed on Xia Ling.
"Whether it's your description just now, or what Kiana said before, this name seems to have been mentioned several times, right?"
"And... in your account, wasn't your description of her a little too intimate? You weren't fooled by some bad woman, were you?"
Xia Ling: Sweating profusely. jpg
"Ahem, about her and my story... I can't tell you now, it would be spoiler-worthy, but she really does like me a lot..."
Abandoned 2 (3) feed/Qi delete, said "She likes you very much?"
Theresa keenly sensed the seriousness of the problem. She had initially thought that Xia Ling might just be having a bit of an ambiguous relationship with that guy, but she hadn't expected that the reality was more serious than she had imagined.
Xia Ling looked away guiltily. "Besides, she is a very special person to me... just like you are to me."
U-skirt 2+1 Thirty-year-old witch father (seven) Yi Shan "What???"
Theresa froze on the spot. She remembered that, according to Kiana, the woman named Elysia also seemed to have pink hair.
However, that's not the key point. Although she was very unhappy, Theresa wasn't incapable of sharing Xia Ling with others...
After all, she had become completely dependent on Xia Ling. She believed that if other people spent time with Xia Ling, they would probably also find it difficult to resist her "charm".
But the problem is, I know absolutely nothing about this suddenly appearing Elysia! I can't just let anyone pop up and take a piece of Xia Ling away from her!
Moreover, for some unknown reason, Xia Ling's description of this Elysia was vague, which undoubtedly confirmed Theresa's previous suspicions— Xia Ling must have been deceived by this wicked woman!
"Who exactly is she? Tell me the truth right now!"
"Ahem, this is actually related to the source of my power. Haven't you all been curious about where that power, which even I, Sirin, was from when I was fusing with the core? It was actually Elysia's inheritance..."
Xia Ling tried to change the subject.
"You know that's not what I meant—"
"Actually, I've put all the information about her past in the Elysian Realm trial Device I prepared for you... If you're really that curious, why don't you go and explore her past yourself?"
"If you understand all of this, you'll probably understand why I said she was special..."
"Fine..." Theresa, her jealousy flaring up, said huff, "I want to see what kind of magic this Elysia has that can fool you like this..."
Chapter 64 Kiana: I've been through too much; the walls of my heart are incredibly hard.
Driven by "special power," Theresa quickly began her work.
As mentioned before, Theresa wasn't particularly opposed to the fact that Xia Ling had other people who liked her; she was well aware of Xia Ling's popularity.
Back in St. Freya's time, she was almost overtaken by Xia Ling as the academy's number one mascot... although neither of them wanted that position.
Later, or more precisely, after that incident in Changkong City, Xia Ling's "attractiveness" became increasingly prominent. So much so that when she first moved into the Salt Lake Base, because most of the employees were unaware of their "romantic relationship," Xia Ling received a large number of love letters... the kind that appealed to both men and women.
Therefore, rather than worrying about whether Xia Ling has someone else she likes, Theresa wants to know whether Xia Ling's current tendency to sacrifice herself is influenced by other people.
Although Kal'tsit had explained Xia Ling's past to her, Theresa felt a chill run down her spine at the thought that someone had been influencing Xia Ling behind the scenes for the past two years.
In her opinion, this secretive person must be hiding something, and maybe she is the one secretly leading Xia Ling.
Theresa is determined to expose this wicked woman's true colors!
With this mindset, Theresa's work efficiency increased even more, and even Amber was taken aback by the speed at which orders were issued from the bishop's office.
The Elysian Realm trial Server that Xia Ling brought back is no small thing. Storing this data requires a large server and a fairly powerful simulation training ground to meet its operating requirements.
After searching through the base details of both Schicksal and Anti-Entropy, Theresa discovered that, apart from Schicksal Headquarters and Anti-Entropy's North American headquarters, there seemed to be only one other place that could meet her operational needs.
That is—the underground laboratory of the Cathedral of St. Freya.
As the place where Otto once used to replicate the "Holy Blood," this underground laboratory is equipped with extremely sophisticated facilities and boasts astonishingly high performance.
Out of his doting affection for Theresa, Otto has been constantly updating St. Freya's training grounds, always using the latest Schicksal configurations—which is somewhat of a waste of resources to withstand Theresa's training intensity.
The venue and equipment met the requirements, and even the location had a nostalgic feel. Theresa immediately decided to place the things Xia Ling brought back at St. Freya.
However, due to the current unstable situation of Schicksal, Theresa was unable to allocate too many personnel, and Xia Ling also indicated that this thing might have some bugs, so... the number of people going to the trial in the first phase was not very large.
At least, several Doctor who were quite interested in the history of Previous Civilization were unable to participate.
Therefore, the initial selection of participants for the first phase of the Elysian Realm was set as the Big Three: Theresa, Durandal, and Fu Hua (Sirin).
Just happen to be six departments of the enterprise neighbor scar witch temple liu ba seven qi group · chat position (not).
Sirin was specifically called back from outside by Xia Ling. In fact, she herself was not very interested in it at first, but after hearing that she could see precious footage of the Old Fossil during their youth, she immediately joined without hesitation.
As for Xia Ling's point... if there isn't a Mental Perception type in the team, they'll probably be stuck at Aponia for a long time.
As for Durandal's joining, it was due to Rita's strong recommendation, and Xia Ling knew a little about the reasons.
After all, Durandal had just learned at this point in time that she was the real Kiana, and with Otto's departure, the only other person by her side who also knew this secret was Rita.
