Silly Dog Shub's Discovery (Part One) / Sir, Times Have Changed (Part Two)

Anti-Entropy the Yellowstone Base, where order has been initially restored, the atmosphere is unusually heavy.

On the high platform, the most prestigious Einstein and the acting leader of the alliance during peacetime, Raiden Ryoma, stood separately behind a man wearing a silver mask.

"Gentlemen, from this moment forward, he will temporarily assume the leadership of [Anti-Entropy]. This is Welt's will, and it is also our will."

As Raiden Ryoma stepped forward to announce, the crowd erupted in uproar. It was simply unbelievable that this gloomy man had inexplicably taken over Welt's position.

Moreover, Welt disappeared because he blocked [Schicksal], yet none of these big shots seemed particularly anxious or even had any intention of searching for him.

"Okay, I'm just a temporary worker, only for a few days, let's all make do..."

Faced with skepticism, [Gray Serpent] picked at his ear, his tone flippant, and casually sent the electronic list to various departments.

"I need to gather everything listed above within three days; I'm in a hurry..."

"In addition, to encourage everyone to be more enthusiastic about their work, I have specifically hired a professional soldier with security experience to be responsible for everyone's personal safety."

Immediately, a tall, blonde military princess emerged from behind the curtain, her eyes sharp.

"I, Cocolia, will be in charge of security at the base for the next three days. No one is permitted to enter or leave until the mission is completed!"

Clearly, this is a form of disguised imprisonment.

However, high-ranking officials such as Dr. Tesla, Raiden Ryoma, and Einstein showed no unusual reaction and were extremely cooperative.

Since the bigwigs of all departments at [Anti-Entropy] have reached a consensus, these ordinary employees, though unwilling, can only suppress their confusion and work diligently.

Several tens of minutes later, in a private room.

Hatsune Miku took off her mask, rested her head on the table, and looked on with curiosity.

"Hey Kevin, what did you say to them to make them all listen to you?"

Immediately, the girl's eyes darted around, and she adopted a gruff, threatening tone.

"Your leader is in my hands! If you want him to live, you'd better work honestly! Is that right?"

Kevin casually removed the silver mask, revealing a hint of gloom and coldness on his otherwise calm face.

"More or less..."

The man, with his back to Hatsune Miku and Fu Hua, murmured to himself.

Real name, sorry, please wait a little longer... it will only take three days...

Lost in thought, Kevin reviewed his recent arrangements, trying to see if he had overlooked anything.

Because Sirin's determination was underestimated, Cecilia was killed, and Siegfried became even more despondent.

Therefore, without plot developments, he can only rely on himself to save Zhenming.

Only by obtaining the Key of Blank, the Origin Stone, and the Reason Herrscher Core will he be qualified to go to the Lunar Base and arm wrestle.

This task was relatively challenging, but after careful planning, the plan is now 90% complete.

First, by using the correspondence to arouse Otto's suspicion, the Lord Bishop was made to take action against Welt prematurely, thus weakening [Anti-Entropy].

By taking Theresa hostage and protecting the severely injured Welt, the Herrscher of Reason Core would be within their grasp.

Secondly, the Schicksal Headquarters happened to be in a vulnerable state at the time, and they invaded the Floating Island to obtain the location information of the Key of Blank and the Origin Stone.

Furthermore, the three of them left behind many interesting things on the Floating Island, Otto probably doesn't have the energy to deal with anything else right now.

Next, we need to obtain the [Key of Blank] and the [Origin Stone] from Heimdall Laboratory.

So, it's up to you now, the last vestige of conscience in the Apocalypse family...

At this moment, the Schicksal Floating Island.

Theresa slowly opened her eyes, sat up in bed, and looked out the window with a complicated expression. She couldn't help but recall the moment when [Gray Serpent] opened his lips and whispered.

"How about we make a deal, alternating crimes?"

The young nun looked hesitant. "What do you mean?"

"Simply put, I will do what you want to do but dare not do, such as saving Kiana and bringing her out of the quagmire of [Schicksal], ensuring the healthy growth of Cecilia's bloodline..."

"And you, if only, at the right time, help me get two things..."

That person seemed like a devil who could see right through people's hearts; a simple name was enough to make Theresa's heart flutter.

Since Cecilia's death in battle, she had vaguely learned that Kiana had been adopted by her grandfather Otto.

Although it was unclear what the Lord Bishop's true purpose was, Theresa, drawing on her own experiences, could guess that Kiana's fate would not be good.

But faced with Otto's long-standing power and influence, she dared not resist at all.

If the person in front of you can really rescue Kiana from [Schicksal], that would undoubtedly be the best outcome.

The biggest problem now is whether this person is trustworthy.

However, Theresa's last hesitation vanished when the opponent revealed [Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment].

So it was you...

You come to Kiana, I come to get the stuff. It makes perfect sense, all for Cecilia's sake...

Before Theresa could even rejoice after the two secretly reached an agreement, she was knocked unconscious by the Raven behind her.

You bastard, you actually used me to threaten Grandpa!

If Kiana is not safely freed from [Schicksal's ] control within three days, you can forget about getting what you want!

Also, you must fulfill your promise to avenge Cecilia...

If possible, come back alive. The number of people I know is dwindling...

Theresa clenched her fists instinctively, her gaze complex.

Chapter 378 The Discovery of the Silly Dog Shub (First Update) (Section 396)

On the desolate Lunar Surface, a solitary figure gazes at the Weilan planet.

The side facing away from the sun is in the darkness of night, but you can still see countless Fan Xing lights, dispelling the last vestiges of gloom and tranquility.

Human prosperity dominates everything, and the clamor of civilization never ceases to resonate.

"They're so boring, aren't they, Bella?"

Sirin's eyes shone with a deep purple light as she gently stroked the head of a blue and white dragon, murmuring softly to herself.

However, upon hearing its master's question, the snake merely raised its head instinctively, its icy blue vertical pupils revealing only confusion and obedience.

The Second Herrscher reached into the emerging Void Rift and searched for a moment before finally taking out half a chocolate.

At this moment, Demon Dragon Bella's chaotic eyes revealed an excited light. Her huge head rested on the back of her master's hand, rubbing it repeatedly, while her thick tail slapped the Lunar Surface, leaving behind a dense array of craters. Her fawning behavior was just like that of a puppy.

"Okay, you glutton! But this is the last half..."

Sirin angrily tapped Bella on the forehead, then broke half a chocolate bar into pieces and stuffed them into everyone's mouths.

The rough tongue rubbing against her palm brought a satisfied smile to her face; she clearly enjoyed being fed.

However, after touching the dragon scales for a while, they felt a bit rough on the skin... Sirin was somewhat disappointed.

In the Siberia War, although she achieved her goal, she lost much more.

Bella survived by pulling her into the Spatial Rift, but due to the overload of the Pseudo-Herrscher Core, her original personality eventually reverted to the primal nature of Honkai Beast.

Sirin glanced at Bella, who was engrossed in chewing chocolate, and her urge to confide in her intensified. She casually opened Spatial Rift, connected it to the temple, and descended into the sky.

The unobservable dark expanse on the far side of the moon reveals a vast expanse of Honkai Beast lurking everywhere – a full 30,000!

At the temple entrance, main passage, courtyard, and core, four girls in different poses, Pseudo-Herrscher guard with their eyes closed, as if in "standby" mode.

50,000 years have passed, and the airflow and gravity here remain as normal as they are on Earth, making it a very suitable place to live.

Sirin made her way smoothly to a stone door, then habitually adjusted her breathing and straightened her slightly disheveled clothes.

Inside, the infamous Second Herrscher was actually lying by the bedside, holding a fair hand, and murmuring happily.

"Mother, Sirin was very good today too, she even gave the last piece of chocolate to Bella..."

Cecilia lay peacefully on the bed covered with crimson crystalline flowers, nestled among them, like Sleeping Beauty in a fairy tale, maintaining a peculiar state of being neither truly alive nor truly dead.

Although he wouldn't comfort her or speak, he also wouldn't leave or become hostile—this was the ideal person in Sirin's heart.

For this reason, she even ignored the prophecy of [God] and sealed the severely injured Cecilia in Spatial Rift she created.

In reality, the plan to create the alternate personality of Irene both succeeded and failed.

When Sirin killed her cowardly self in the riverside woods that night, the connection between their souls caused those memories and emotions to flow back into her original self, influencing her actions.

So, at the last moment, she inexplicably spared Cecilia, and despite Bella's desperate attempts to stop her, she allowed herself to fall into the Spatial Rift, letting the potential threat escape.

She didn't know what was right or wrong; she just wanted to do it that way.

Driven by a desire to confide, Sirin nestled in her mother's arms and began to recount her recent experiences.

"Mother, even though Bella ignores me anymore, I've gained four new friends. Two of them are named Aurora and Agatha, and I haven't decided on the names for the others yet..."

The four girls outside are Pseudo-Herrscher created from the Herrscher Core: Storm, Flame, Thunder, and Death. Although their physical forms are modeled after Sirin's friends who died in the Babylon Laboratory, they are actually empty shells without souls and can only be used as weapons.

"Mother, I gave them one more day..."

Sirin nestled in her mother's arms, murmuring softly, her expression gradually wavering.

"But [God] is calling me..."

"She is about to arrive..."

So, struggle on...

Then, the sleepy girl climbed into bed, nestled in her Mother's arms, and fell asleep, a pure smile blooming on Cecilia face.

Meanwhile, on Earth, [Schicksal] South American Branch.

Shub Nicholas, the main A-class Valkyrie, squatted on the railing, idly munching on an apple and occasionally scratching her messy red hair.

After confirming that no one was around, the Valkyrie began to casually decipher the encrypted message posted by the captain's channel.

The content consists of three parts. First, the scandal of human experimentation in the Siberia laboratory, and the bloody chain behind the Stigmata technology, which is clearly the truth behind Sirin's betrayal.

Wasn't [Schicksal] supposed to be adopting those orphans? And in return, they're only asking them to participate in harmless experiments on a voluntary basis?

According to the testimonies of the girls arrested at the B-17 military fortress, not only have they been conducting human experiments that endanger lives, but the hiring of personnel and the experimental procedures at the Babylon Laboratory are also clearly bizarre.

Even the infectious diseases appearing in the villages surrounding the Babylon Tower looked remarkably like the Honkai and erosion caused by collapse...

This raises serious questions: was the spread of Honkai energy due to the researchers' negligence, or was it intentional?

So, I really do hate those white-clad bugs; they just use the guise of science to satisfy their twisted urge to explore.

The strong should challenge the strong! Fools who only dare to point their fangs at the weak deserve to die!

Shub bit her nail, slightly disdainful. She had a general understanding of the experimental subjects' betrayal and was even more disgusted by the comfortable way those scum were given the title of "martyrdom in the line of duty."

Anyway, she wasn't a good person, and if they were still alive, she would definitely take matters into her own hands and kill all those bastards in the most Affliction way possible, she promised!

But after much thought, Shub hung her head in frustration. She had to admit that she simply didn't have the ability to challenge the established system of Schicksal.

If the captain were still alive, with her prestige, perhaps...

Shub sighed, then took a big bite of the apple, deciding to put this worry out of her mind.

But when she opened the second message, a hint of gloom appeared in her eyes.

Siegfried was framed! Someone is plotting against the "Snow Wolf Squad"!

P. S.: I originally wanted to keep Cecilia's fate a secret for a while, but to avoid being censored, I'll release the news in advance.

Chapter 379, Section 397: My Lord, Times Have Changed (Two Updates)

This is a video of his first duel with Sirin in front of the Babylon Tower.

To be precise, it was the content after the Snow Wolf Squad's defeat. As the story progressed, Shub was somewhat dumbfounded.

She never imagined that the seemingly frail pretty boy actually possessed terrifying strength, only slightly weaker than S-class Valkyrie.

Furthermore, the fact that he managed to escape with his girlfriend in a crisis shows he still has some conscience; he's at least much better than that man who dragged the team down and caused the captain's sacrifice.
