Fu Hua looked at Otto coldly.
"I will not become a Herrscher."
Master Fu had just planted a flag for herself.
However, that was indeed what she was thinking.
How could I, Fu Hua, possibly become a Herrscher?
But she raised her hand, pressed it against Otto's chest, and then spoke in her clear, cold voice.
"If I really become a Herrscher..."
She pushed Otto away, and then her solid fist shot forward like lightning. The gust of wind from her punch ruffled Otto's blond hair slightly before stopping a centimeter from his face.
"The first thing I'd do is probably smash your face in."
This was a threat.
Because Fu Hua always felt like Otto was plotting something against her.
Chapter 58: Otto's Body, Fu Hua's Mind
The room was silent. Otto no longer provoked this High Immortal Fu Hua. For an old woman over fifty thousand years old, his petty tricks were completely useless.
Because Fu Hua's impression of him was already deeply ingrained.
No matter what he did, it would be difficult to change his status in her heart in a short amount of time.
However, if he threatened Fu Hua with Shenzhou to bear him a child, Fu Hua might agree. But her heart would still not be with him, and it would even arouse her disgust towards him.
This would be more trouble than it was worth.
A child...
Otto narrowed his eyes. He sat on a chair, holding a terminal, and was reviewing Schicksal's affairs so he could quickly understand the situation.
He couldn't stay in Changkong City for long, so he needed to quickly understand Schicksal's affairs to avoid any unusual details being noticed when he returned.
However, his thoughts drifted.
If he had a child...
Would that mean he had put down roots in this world?
Could it be considered that he had taken root?
Otto tapped his thigh with his left hand and looked up at Fu Hua, who was leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, striking a pose. The immortal had been standing there for several hours, looking like she was prepared to stand there all night.
Wasn't she bored standing there?
It could only be said that she was worthy of being the Immortal Vermillion Bird, so patient with loneliness.
"Old friend."
Otto said softly. Fu Hua, who had been looking at the ground pretending to be deep in thought, but was actually eavesdropping on the movements next door, looked up.
Her position was excellent. With her hearing as a Fusion Warrior, she could completely hear the movements next door.
So she had been listening to the two young girls next door who weren't sleeping, whispering to each other.
And the topic of their conversation was Otto.
It had to be said that Otto was quite skilled at deceiving girls, no wonder he had a bunch of fangirls under him in Schicksal.
But using love to redeem a Herrscher was a bit too much.
And Otto wanted two Herrschers at once...
Was he playing both sides?
But Fu Hua heard Otto calling her. She looked up at Otto and replied in her usual clear, cold voice.
"What is it?"
Otto smiled with a hint of curiosity and asked.
"My old friend, I'm very curious."
"Can Fusion Warriors get pregnant?"
"Are they reproductively isolated from Pure Humans like us?"
Hearing Otto's question, Fu Hua's expression froze. To be honest, Otto had really hit a blind spot in her knowledge.
Fu Hua did not answer. She just shook her head faintly.
After getting his answer, Otto pondered.
As far as he knew, there were no precedents for Fusion Warriors getting pregnant. Even Kevin, who was the strongest Fusion Warrior, his offspring were created by Dr. MEI using their genes.
However, there weren't many Fusion Warriors to begin with.
Fu Hua looked at the thoughtful Otto, not understanding why he would ask this question.
Could it be...
"Otto, are you worried about Theresa's future marriage?"
Fu Hua suddenly understood.
Otto's beloved granddaughter, Theresa, also possessed Honkai Beast Genes, making her a reluctant fusion warrior of this era.
Otto was likely asking this question out of concern for Theresa's future.
After all, Theresa was a candidate for Bishop of Schicksal; if she had no heirs, Schicksal would descend into chaos.
Fu Hua could only think in this direction, as she wouldn't consider the possibility that Otto actually wanted to impregnate himself.
Otto wore a look of utter confusion.
Theresa's marriage?
What brat would dare lay a hand on little Theresa? He'd make sure they knew what the Schicksal Penal Code said!
He didn't quite grasp Fu Hua's train of thought, but he spoke again.
"If fusion warriors have children, will their offspring inherit traits from their parents?"
Fu Hua pondered, then shook her head.
This was also a blind spot in her knowledge.
But it made sense; whatever she knew, Otto likely knew too, and if Otto didn't know, how could she possibly know the answer?
Having worked under Otto for so many years, Fu Hua knew that in terms of intellect and scheming, she couldn't compare to him.
"The Kaslana family inherited the bloodline of Kevin Kaslana from the Previous Era, possessing a portion of his power within their blood."
Siegfried's beastification was a manifestation of Kevin's power.
"So, if there were offspring, they should inherit some abilities from the previous generation."
"Then I'm quite curious."
"My old friend, if it were your child, what power would they inherit?"
"Suppose, you and I had a child."
"If she inherited my intellect and your power, then that child would be worthy of being called a savior, wouldn't she?"
Fu Hua frowned slightly.
"However, if she inherited my physical condition and your intellect, that would be terrible."
In that case, she'd have to start a new account.
"Are you so pessimistic that you place your hopes on the next generation?"
Fu Hua asked calmly, genuinely taking Otto's words as a hypothetical example and contemplating how difficult it would be if descendants inherited the flaws of their parents.
Even technology couldn't control such things.
However, she had a delayed realization and looked at Otto.
She felt like Otto had just subtly insulted her.
What was wrong with her intellect?
"How is that possible?"
"The war between humanity and Honkai will end in my generation."
Otto said with a smile, changing the subject. He had grown accustomed to being with Kiana in the same room, which had made him speak a bit too casually with the High Immortal.
Fortunately, she didn't seem to mind.
He didn't want to be beaten by Fu Hua right now.
After all, her little punches to the chest could be fatal.
Actually, this was a frontal assault (lol).JPG
"In the next two days, I plan to take the two of them away from Changkong City. There's no point in staying here any longer."
Bringing the Herrscher of the Void and the Lightning Herrscher back to his base would allow for constant monitoring, leaving the Will of Honkai no opportunity to intervene.
After all, They had to play by the rules when they entered the fray.
Just then, Otto's communication terminal rang.
It was his secretary, Amber.
After Otto answered the call, the woman who had always existed in the background respectfully said, "Lord Overseer, you asked me to send people to investigate the situation in Changkong City. We have preliminary results."
Otto raised an eyebrow. With Schicksal's technology, it would be very difficult for Cocolia and the Will of Honkai to do anything nefarious without being detected.
"According to the investigation, although the Honkai Energy concentration in Changkong City is very weak, it is increasing daily."
"Is Cocolia behind this?"
Otto hadn't forgotten that troublesome woman. He was worried that the crazy hag would directly trigger an artificial Honkai outbreak in Changkong City.
"No. It's not!"
"According to the readings, the Honkai Energy in the cities surrounding Changkong City is gradually moving towards Changkong City."
"Although the Honkai Energy contained in this air is imperceptible, even unable to affect the human body, it is indeed gathering towards Changkong City."
"If all this Honkai Energy converges in Changkong City, it could lead to a Honkai disaster."
This is... gathering sand to form a tower.
"This situation doesn't seem like something Anti-Entropy could pull off, it's almost like..."
Otto spoke faintly, interrupting Amber.
"It's God."
"This is... a miracle."
Chapter 59. The Donkey-Eared Box Spirit is Ready to Go Online
The Will of Honkai has made a move.
Schicksal's specially made communication terminal was placed on the desktop, displaying a holographic projection of Changkong City and its surrounding areas.
The image showed pink spirals, which were the convergence trajectories of Honkai Energy.
These trace amounts of Honkai Energy were slowly gathering towards Changkong City in the air.
Clearly, this situation was unreasonable.
If the Will of Honkai wasn't involved, Otto would rip his own head off and use it as a cushion for Fu Hua.
But this made things very tricky.
The Will of Honkai had made its move.
Although the concentration of Honkai Energy in Changkong City was still very safe, if all this moving Honkai Energy entered the city, gathering sand to form a tower, what they would face next would be a Honkai disaster.
The Great Honkai would erupt in Changkong City.
