Elysia could already imagine Durandal's feelings after she died; the person who took such good care of her had been infected with Collapse Disease, and she was completely helpless.

Now I just hope Durandal can stay strong.

"Life is so unpredictable; disaster may strike at any moment."

Su shook her head.

The person he knew best was still himself. He realized that this was not a World Bubble, but his memories, which were automatically replaced by people that Durandal knew when she experienced them.

In other words, he was the one who was helpless.

Mei suddenly thought of something.

If Rita is replacing Kevin, then who are Ragna and Otto?

Let's leave Ragna aside for now.

If the people of the Previous Era were truly all people living in the courtyard, then Otto's tone only led her to think of one person.

Mobius frowned.

She didn't understand why Mei's gaze had suddenly turned to her.

Durandal was shocked to find that the hospital was sealed off by the Moth Chasing Fire. She was about to call Ragna when she found that his phone was switched off. Just then, Otto came out and took Durandal inside.

Otto said a lot to Durandal in the corridor, mostly hinting that he hoped Durandal would hold on when she saw the following scene.

"Human beings are still powerless children in the face of disease."

Otto slowly opened the door.

Durandal's pupils contracted.

"Director Ragna... how could this happen..."

Durandal was incredulous. Ragna, who had been comforting her just yesterday, was now lying on an isolation bed made of transparent material, with purple patterns spreading all over his body.

Durandal felt as if all the strength had been drained from her body, and she collapsed to her knees, leaning against the glass dome.

Ragna didn't seem dead; he looked more like he was asleep.

From this moment on, the pace of this web series changed.

The first half was quite lively, but the second half revealed its true nature, known as Honkai.

The relentless stabs, while not enough to bring tears to one's eyes, certainly evoked complex emotions.

Elysia recalled the question she had asked Yaqing not long ago.

A knife?

No knife!

Elysia gritted her teeth, wishing she could bite Yaqing to death.

Yaqing, on the other hand, acted as if she were completely innocent.

This is indeed not cruel at all, after all, the script he is writing is already Eternal Elysium.

Chapter 431 Ragna's Death / Gender-swapped Kevin.

Otto recounted the cause of Ragra's death and then explained the Otto Collapse Disease to Durandal.

Ragna treated more than 500 patients in 5 years. Even the best protective suits cannot perfectly Honkai energy. Once Honkai energy, the mortality rate is as high as 99.5%.

At the same time, Otto also announced that Durandal would no longer be required to treat patients with Collapse Disease, and that other hospitals, except for the Moth Chasing Fire, would not be allowed to accept such patients.

This was supposed to be good news; no longer accepting patients with Collapse Disease would reduce the chances of doctors getting infected. But to everyone's surprise Durandal stood up and solemnly addressed Otto.

"Mr. Otto, please let me join the [Moth Chasing Fire], I must defeat the [Collapse Disease]."

Looking at the determination in Durandal's eyes, Otto refused, his words harsh and vicious, dismissing Durandal as a novice— the Moth Chasing Fire wouldn't accept a doctor of her caliber.

"Otto is annoying no matter where he is."

Elysia listened to Otto's vicious words to Durandal, her face showing displeasure, and added another sentence.

"Except for Father Otto."

"Actually, I feel that Otto is protecting Durandal."

A glint of wisdom flashed in Sakura's eyes.

"I think Sakura is right. The closer Honkai energy, the higher the probability of getting infected with Collapse Disease. Otto probably wants to discourage Durandal and make her give up the idea of entering the Moth Chasing Fire."

Mei took over Ying's words and explained to everyone.

"I see. So Otto isn't so bad after all."

Pardo was the first to be persuaded.

Because she completely believed in Mei's intelligence.

After Bianka left, Bo Long of the Moth Chasing Fire came to Otto's side. He wondered why Otto would refuse Durandal the best doctor in the hospital.

Otto didn't answer Bo Long's question. Instead, he remembered what Ragna had once told him. Now he saw it in Durandal's eyes. She was indeed someone who wouldn't give up easily.

"Dr. Otto, didn't you quit drinking?"

"Shut up, Bo Long."

The scene freezes here, the camera slowly pulls back, and Su gazes at this scene.

"Otto Apocalypse, Bishop of Schicksal."

"So, that's how you are to her."

"Tch, I didn't expect Otto to be a good person in this world."

Tesla said irritably.

She seemed to be in a good mood, otherwise, mentioning Otto would have been the start of a long telegram.

"Dr. Tesla, I have a guess. It's not that Otto is a good person, but rather that Durandal thinks Otto is a good person."

Tesla was stumped by a single sentence from Einstein.

"Bird's nest hair, what do you mean?"

Einstein only gave one answer to Tesla's question.

"The same experience as Seele, except it's now told from the first person instead of the third."

Tesla understood and couldn't help but say, "So that's how it is. No wonder Su said those two sentences."

Two months after Ragna's death, Durandal had been merged into another department, but she still did not give up her research on Collapse Disease.

For two months, she would send Otto the formula she had researched from time to time, hoping to incorporate it into the Moth Chasing Fire, but each time Otto would criticize her mercilessly. But she would not give up.

Although Otto was blunt, he would always give suggestions for improvement after carefully reading every report he received from Durandal, which even Bo Long couldn't stand.

Since Otto thinks so highly of Durandal, why doesn't he just let her join the Moth Chasing Fire?

Otto Durandal was still too naive. She wanted to defeat the Collapse Disease, but worried that the patients could not withstand the torment of the medicine. He understood that to defeat the demon, he first had to become the demon himself.

Otto keenly sensed that the number of cases in the city was increasing too quickly, so he instructed Bo Long to notify the garrison to prepare.

The scene shifts to an air raid siren.

Durandal listened to the people around her discussing the evacuation drill, and heard someone say that the situation in Changkong City was very similar to the present, she couldn't help but fall into thought.

Before they could think for long, a monster's roar came, and a huge Honkai Beasts suddenly appeared from the crowd, causing them to scatter in terror.

During her escape, Durandal found a girl lying on the ground, who had been Honkai by the Honkai. When her research on the potion failed, she increased the dosage and finally stopped the corruption.

But by then the Honkai Beasts's attack was already upon them, and there was no time to dodge. Durandal could only hold the girl tightly, hoping to use her own body to shield her from the Honkai Beasts's attack.

The lines of Honkai and erosion spread across his face, and his consciousness gradually blurred.

Otto suddenly appeared at this moment, wondering if Durandal Honkai energy erosion.

Durandal, struggling to maintain her fading consciousness, tried to remind Otto.

At that critical moment, Rita, clad in her combat suit, leaped high into the air, wielding the Judgement of Shamash to utterly annihilate the Honkai Beasts. Durandal stared blankly at her long-lost friend.

The plot is very captivating and keeps you on the edge of your seat.

But Rita's appearance in the end still made everyone lose their composure.

The contrast was striking; the maid, who always wore a smile, now had a cold expression like Kevin's, catching everyone off guard.

Another issue is his overly muscular pectoral muscles, which his combat suit can't contain at all. However, Rita's combat suit seems to be the same one as Kevin's, making her look like a gender-swapped Kevin at first glance.

"Puff!"

Kevin had just taken a sip of water when he sprayed it all onto the ground.

This elicited a murderous expression from him.

"Is it Kevin? No, no, is it Rita? No, it's not Kevin either?"

Elysia was completely confused.

"Actually, it's easy to explain. This isn't a parallel world at all, but rather Su's memories. The Durandal we see is Su, and Rita is Kevin. This is a story from Previous Era."

Hearing Mei's explanation, Elysia seemed to understand but not quite, and her face was a little embarrassed. After all, she had just been shipping Durandal's longing for Rita, but now it seemed that she was shipping Sue and Kevin.

Elysia was incredibly grateful that Blanca had taken Griseo upstairs to sleep.

"Is this Su's experience?"

Sakura's expression was strange.

The once sunny young man has now become as cold as ice.

A doctor who was once compassionate and empathetic is now attempting to use a fake body to replace a human life in order to save a sliver of hope.

The once conservative and old-fashioned people have now learned to deceive.

Time really is a cruel mistress.

Sakura sighed silently in her heart.

"The Judgement of Shamash has been created, which means that humanity has surpassed seven Herrscher. The Previous Era was truly terrifying. They had seven Herrscher, yet ordinary people didn't even know what Honkai was."

Vill-V was surprised.

This secrecy is just too good. If someone in reality were hiding the Honkai, she probably wouldn't be able to resist going to the Moth Chasing Fire to steal the data. After all, as a researcher, facing the unknown is the most exciting thing.

"Who did Otto replace?"

Ling asked curiously.

All eyes immediately turned to Mobius.

Mobius tilted his head and said irritably, "Why are you all looking at me? Does Otto's behavior resemble mine?"

Unexpectedly, everyone nodded at the same time.

They may have a sharp tongue, but they have a soft heart. If they really had to choose a representative, they couldn't think of anyone other than Mobius.

Mobius was furious.

Everything bad is attributed to Mobius, and all bad people try to pin their blame on Mobius. When will this trend end?!

Mobius gave him a look.

Yaqing immediately understood, hugged Mobius's slender waist, and kept persuading him.

"Senior, don't be angry, don't be angry."

Mobius snorted coldly.

"If it weren't for the white mouse stopping me, I would have made you regret it."

They say women in love act silly, and sure enough, Mobius actually played this childish trick, which adored Elysia so much that she almost had a nosebleed.

You know, the contrast between a cool and aloof older woman and someone suddenly acting like a child is the most damaging to others.

"Among all beings in the cycle of reincarnation, only those who can hold fast to themselves within the cycle can pass the test of the [Avatar Body]. Congratulations, Miss Bianka, you have passed the first test."

The virtual scene in front of Su was like a surveillance camera.

His words still left people completely confused.
