Ten Walterts Couldn't Beat You at This! / A Shenzhou Tablet Just Passing By

"Moreover, Siegfried's rampage was just an accident! I believe it was just an accident!"

Kevin tapped the back of the chair lightly, a devilish, seductive smile spreading across his face.

"Okay, I'll tell you one more piece of news for free, that should probably repay the favor."

"How did you record the fate of the founder of the Sanyate family?"

Cecilia was bad at saying no, and even worse at lying. She bit her lip, recalled the family records, and answered seriously.

"Lady Eleanor sacrificed herself in the war against the Honkai Beast..."

Kevin's lips curled into a strange smile as he slowly revealed the truth of history.

"In late 1475, Kallen, disguised as a phantom thief, inadvertently broke into Viktor's underground laboratory, discovered human experiments, and was defeated by Eleanor wielded the Abyss, when she tried to stop it."

"Later, during the final stage of the experiment, Kallen arrived at the church with Judah to stop them. Eleanor tried desperately to stop them but failed, and then fused with the research results to become a humanoid Honkai Beast. She was then shot dead by Otto, who was impatient with Kallen's presence, in his Mimicry: Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment. Kallen took the box away from Europe, Otto retrieved Eleanor's remains for Honkai energy research, thus creating Saniyat, one of the three starting families of Schicksal..."

Amid Cecilia's incredulous expression, Kevin slowly snorted.

"This guy, whose veins flow with lies, only ever cared about whether he could reunite with Kallen..."

"The Sanyate family was just a pawn in Otto's game. He even killed Saniyat's first Saintess, why would he care about your life or death?"

At this moment, Cecilia revealed the shock of her Faith Collapse, feeling lost and helpless.

Kevin picked up a truffle chocolate from his fingertip, popped it into his mouth, chewed and savored it, a hint of smugness appearing in his eyes.

If you can't win over Siegfried, isn't it a piece of cake to cuckold Otto?

ps1: Thank you readers for the reminder of the "Liangyi". In fact, I have laid the groundwork for a misunderstanding before. I planned to create conflicts to improve my goodwill. It may have been self-defeating. I'm sorry, it brought an unpleasant reading feeling. I will pay attention next time. (I understand Cecilia's character, don't worry.)

PS2: Thanks to readers Long Tao Wan Sui 1 razor blade), Artemis 15 razor blades), Dark Emperor Shang 4 razor blades), Wang Lin A Wang Lin 1 razor blade) for urging me to update.

The first update is at 2 AM today, and the second update is at 6 AM today.

Chapter 360, Section 377: Even ten Welt couldn't beat you!

As night deepened, the bonfires in the square went out, leaving the ground littered with the mess of the revelry.

After being forced to drink half a bottle of vodka, Kevin felt a bit tipsy. He politely pushed away several Russian girls who had bold ideas, then leaned back in a deck chair to cool off and clear his head.

Although the Her Highness the Saintess beside him said nothing, Kevin could sense her wavering.

"Alright, a friendly reminder: after the Babylon Tower incident, you led the Snow Wolf Squad and Siegfried to Siberia for an in-depth investigation. The outcome will likely fall into one of three categories..."

"First, the Snow Wolf Squad won a pyrrhic victory, so Otto can easily retrieve the five Herrscher Core with your help..."

"Secondly, Sirin destroyed the entire Snow Wolf Squad. Under the guise of revenge, the Lord Bishop will command the Valkyrie of [Schicksal], ultimately succeeding in overwhelming the heavily wounded Second Herrscher..."

"Third, if you and Sirin perish together, Otto only needs to frame your heroic images, and [Schicksal] can gain another wave of support..."

"Moreover, regardless of the outcome, as long as the Babylon Tower experiment is confirmed to have failed, the second phase of Sirin Project will inevitably begin!"

"At that time, you and Siegfried will be the biggest hindrance, so sending you to the battlefield early, letting you fight Sirin to the death, is a win-win situation for Otto..."

The commander rubbed his temples with one hand and picked up a twig with the other to draw a chessboard on the snow in front of Cecilia, a slightly tipsy smirk on his face.

"Tsk tsk, the only S-class Valkyrie [Schicksal], the captain of the Snow Wolf Squad, the idol of many Valkyrie... You, the Saintess of the Sanyate family, have too many accolades..."

"Furthermore, even your husband, Siegfried, is the new head of the Kaslan family, and his strength is comparable to that of S-class Valkyrie, the wielder of the Key of Destruction..."

"Even if you have no intention of rebelling, so what? To Otto, the [knight] and [Saintess] after the marriage alliance are nothing but a naked threat!"

"And that Old Man has lived for over 500 years would absolutely not tolerate the slightest flaw in his plan, nor would he want to see the [Knight] and [Saintess] families spiral out of control..."

"The Sirin Project, which involves Kiana, just happened to amplify the danger you and Siegfried are in..."

"No matter what, you must die! And not at Lord Otto's hands, but in the fight against the Honkai!"

"Once you become heroes framed by [Schicksal], then both prestige and the power of the two great families will return to the [Bishop's] grasp..."

"Therefore, from the moment you set foot on Siberia soil, the outcome was already predetermined..."

At this moment, Cecilia seemed to see a cold-blooded chess player in Kevin's narrative. She wanted to refute what she considered absurd claims, but after racking her brains, she couldn't find a single piece of evidence.

That deep-seated suspicion not only took root, but also began to grow and expand.

"The first step is to create Second Herrscher and determine if the Herrscher Core of Death can be used to revive Kallen..."

"The second step, if it fails, is to dispatch [Knights] and [Saintess] to eliminate the Second Herrscher, Sirin, retrieve her core, and continue preparations for the experiment..."

"The third step is to indirectly eliminate the [Knight] and [Saintess], who were at least severely damaged after the Babylon Tower incident. After that, we can rightfully take over the power of the two major families, and Kiana will be easily obtained as our vessel..."

"If the Honkai didn't exist, the deaths of the [Knight] and [Saintess] could be attributed to their old rival, [Anti-Entropy]..."

"A perfect layout, but it feels like something's missing..."

Kevin seemed to have thought of something, frowning slightly as he murmured, until his puzzled gaze swept over the golden wolf head badge at his waist, and the commander suddenly smiled.

"The only variable— the Snow Wolf Squad!"

"Now I finally understand why Otto wanted you to personally lead the Snow Wolf Squad to wipe out Sirin..."

"These A-class Valkyrie are all your beloved juniors; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them your direct descendants..."

"Only if they die will no one investigate the cause of your and Siegfried's deaths, and no one will stand up for an orphan Kiana..."

"I knew it! Even a lion needs its full strength to hunt a rabbit. How could Otto make such a basic mistake as splitting his forces into multiple groups..."

"These tactics, tsk tsk, even ten Welt couldn't outdo you!"

Cecilia unconsciously distanced herself from Kevin; the boy's smile was cold...

In a daze, his figure seemed to overlap with that of Lord Otto in the Bishop's Hall.

"Hey, Cecilia, wake up! There's a bug we need to fix!"

Just as Her Highness the Saintess was in a daze, the swaying fingers and palms in front of her snapped her out of her reverie. Kevin, who was in front of her, was no longer drunk and stretched his stiff neck with a sigh of relief.

"You and Siegfried are missing, Sirin is theoretically dead, Welt, the leader of [Anti-Entropy], is said to be seriously injured..."

"But even with my meddling, your loyal followers and devoted fans, the Snow Wolf Squad, are still here..."

"Otto possesses the First Divine Key [Void Archive], so breaking free of the Space Prison and escaping Siberia is only a matter of time..."

"After he returns to [Schicksal Headquarters], he will most likely take action against Kiana ahead of schedule!"

"Therefore, if you don't want your daughter to become the Lord Bishop's experimental tool, you'd better find a way to leave here as soon as possible!"

"I hope you can get Sirin sorted out soon, otherwise if this drags on any longer, you'll only have one option left to save..."

After Kevin finished speaking with a sigh, he suddenly got up and strolled casually along the path.

Cecilia lowered her head guiltily, biting her cherry lips, feeling ashamed of her previous unconscious distancing.

Kevin is different from His Lord Bishop; at least this child has a soft and warm heart and can't bear to see anyone he cares about get hurt.

With her Faith Collapse and her worldview severely impacted, the Her Highness the Saintess not only worries about her daughter Kiana's safety but also struggles with how to persuade "Irene" to stand on humanity's side.

Fifteen minutes later, Cecilia returned to her ward and nestled in her husband Siegfried's arms, hoping to find some comfort.

Honestly! Doesn't that kid think about these things all day long? Doesn't he get tired?

Cecilia, her mind still a jumbled mess, clenched her fist in a resentful rage and slammed it down.

"Mother, has Darling not returned yet?"

At that moment, Ouma Mana, dressed in a thin nightgown, peeked out from the doorway, biting her lip and asking shyly.

Cecilia glanced at the open bedroom door behind the girl and at her rosy skin, which was still flushed from her bath, and roughly guessed why Ouma Mana was shy.

"Oh, he was strolling along the city wall in the southeast corner of the square, but he'd had a few drinks..."

"Go ahead, if you don't bring him back to sleep, he might have to spend the whole night lying in the snow..."

Her Highness the Saintess's face was full of encouragement, but a mischievous glint flashed in her beautiful eyes as she watched Ouma Mana run away.

Hmph, serves you right for overthinking all the time, now you're in for a headache!

However, Cecilia, engrossed in the thrill of her retaliation, apparently failed to notice that her fist, which had been aimed at the bed, had landed squarely on the mummy's chest, causing the victim's brow to furrow.

P. S.: The clues are now linked. Don't accuse me of conspiracy theory, but I just think Otto clearly had the suspicion of sending the Snow Wolf Squad to deliver them one by one.

Besides, I'm completely innocent, so don't label me; this was all done by Green Torres.

Also, the update will be released on the 15th, but it won't be published until the evening. I have things to do during the day, so please understand.

Chapter 361, Section 378: A Passing-by Shenzhou Tablet

Above the Yekaterinburg Town, Kevin flapped his wings, blowing the cold wind as he gulped down the remaining half-bottle of vodka.

Alcohol can indeed numb the brain, but sometimes relaxation is necessary. I wonder if everyone at the B-17 military fortress is doing well.

Overcome by intoxication, Kevin unknowingly drifted beyond the high walls.

A gentle breeze swept by, making his hair stand on end. He flapped his wings and retreated, and the transparent ripples that passed by sliced off a piece of his clothing.

Another Spatial Storm! Although this strange phenomenon has a predictable pattern and can be avoided as much as possible based on observation and experience, it undoubtedly disrupts communication between different survivor settlements.

Moreover, according to the supplies gathering team, Spatial Storm have become increasingly frequent recently, and many previously established patterns are being constantly broken.

In addition, the intensity and frequency of Spatial Storm increase exponentially the closer one gets to the Ruins of the Babylon Tower.

Could it be that something else is brewing there?

Kevin's eyes narrowed slightly, a strange sense of crisis welling up inside him.

However, with the silver-gray Power of Space surging, now is clearly not the time to ponder this; a massive Spatial Storm is coming!

"Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Under the cover of darkness, wherever the breeze reached, everything twisted violently, turning rocks, trees, and other structures into dust.

Two Knight-class Honkai Beast that were wandering in the wilderness had their heads severed by a suddenly appearing spatial blade in a single encounter.

It's truly baffling how Cecilia managed to build a town, withstand wave after wave of attacks, gather resources, and rally the people amidst such a terrifying Spatial Storm.

No wonder these survivors named the town after Catherine, the greatest empress in Russian history; it seems they have taken this Valkyrie as their new spiritual faith.

It is better to take action than to sit and discuss principles.

Otto is certainly skilled at speaking eloquently, but the higher the rank of the Valkyrie, the less easily she is fooled.

In the vast realm of "Schicksal," perhaps only Cecilia, who embodies the spirit of "saving the world," can shoulder the responsibility, and she gradually gains the unwavering support of the high-ranking Valkyrie.

Even in death, Cecilia's influence extends more than a decade into the future, indirectly making her the gravedigger of [Schicksal].

Unable to control his drunkenness, Kevin's thoughts became chaotic for a moment, and the commander unknowingly found himself caught in the vortex of the Spatial Storm.

As the surrounding spatial forces began to crush him, Kevin immediately folded his wings and plummeted to the riverbank that flowed upwards towards the mountain rocks.

"Roar!"

However, just as Kevin regained his footing, a ferocious roar came from the opposite bank of the river, shrouded in silvery-gray mist. A green-skinned lizard, more than ten meters long, crashed through the trees along the way, leaped into the air, and snapped its large mouth full of sharp teeth toward where Kevin was.

The Immortal Abomination! This old man has escaped from the Spatial Rift again!

The commander immediately dodged to the side. Faced with this abnormal creature that defied the laws of the world and seemed impossible to kill, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

"You're out for a stroll again? Don't rush to speak, let me guess who you are..."

"A prank by the one on the moon?"

The four serpentine pupils of the Immortal Abomination flashed with disdainful cold light, and half of its short forelegs, which it was waving, vanished into thin air.

Kevin dodged and flew back, his brow furrowing as he stared at the sharp claw that had emerged from where he had been standing.

No way? Microwormhole Wormhole Technology!

"A self-righteous fool..."

Like the harsh sound of sandpaper rubbing against glass, the screech echoed in Kevin's ears. The Immortal Abomination, with the look of someone eyeing prey, mocked the group's overestimation of their abilities.

"Hey, big lizard..."

Kevin's eyes narrowed, and as he lowered his head in contemplation, his black and white wings suddenly accelerated, and he appeared on the head of the Immortal Abomination. He placed his right hand on the back of the monster's neck and coldly exerted force.

A deep blue frost spread from the commander's palm, instantly covering the entire body of the Immortal Abomination. Then, the surrounding space distorted wildly under the interference of the psychic force.

With a crisp cracking sound, the Immortal Abomination was dismembered into tiny ice particles.
