*Thus Spoke Apocalypse* Premieres
After the phone call ended, Salome had been waiting outside for a long time, finally came in and immediately began to speak.
"Yaqing, something terrible has happened, the sky has fallen."
Yaqing tilted her head, looking completely bewildered by those words.
"Don't rush, speak slowly. As long as I'm still here, the sky won't fall down."
Salome took a deep breath and told Yaqing everything that was going on online, which left Yaqing both amused and exasperated.
"Salome, the bigger the commotion, the bigger the buzz. As for whether Otto has been redeemed, don't you already know? Put your mind at ease, and once this chapter is released, all the commotion will disappear."
Yaqing is very confident.
So confident was he that Otto tried to "bribe" him, but was refused access to information about what would happen next.
They even transferred Mei and Fu Hua to another planning team, just to make them really believe that Otto was going to destroy the world.
Salome breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Yaqing's words.
"Next, let's release that video as well."
Yaqing suddenly said.
Salome nodded, and after leaving Yaqing's office, she bumped into Shigure Kira.
Ouch!
Shigure Kira was knocked to the ground.
"I'm so sorry, Kira, are you alright?"
Salome quickly helped Shigure Kira up.
After standing up, Shigure Kira complained, "Salome, why aren't you watching where you're going? It hurts so much..."
If it weren't for the fact that the action was a bit too elegant, Shigure Kira would have liked to rub her little bottom, as she had bumped it quite a bit when she sat down on the ground.
"Sorry, I need to get back to my office right now."
"Wrong."
Shigure Kira Luo narrowed her eyes.
"Your expression tells me that something is on your mind."
Salome felt a pang of guilt, but quickly realized, what was there to be guilty about? She hadn't stolen Shigure Kira's man.
"Yaqing, you just sent me a video. I need to use the official website account to post it."
"Video?"
Shigure Kira was taken aback and followed Salome curiously.
After arriving at Salome's office, Salome opened the video on her computer and posted it without even watching it. After all, it was a video sent by Yaqing, and he wouldn't shoot himself in the foot, would he?
Curious, Shigure Kira opened her phone, logged onto the official website, and clicked on the newly released video.
The video begins in the Golden Courtyard, where warm sunlight shines through a mirror onto a piano. Yaqing, like an elegant gentleman, traces the black and white piano keys one by one with his fingers.
"Pfft..."
Shigure Kira couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"What is he pretending for... Hahahaha!"
Shigure Kira's first reaction was to watch a funny video. After all, in her mind, Yaqing couldn't sing at all. Compared to her tone-deafness, Ya Qing was no less terrible. They could be described as a pair of ear-piercing voices.
Shigure Kira still remembers that when she went to karaoke with Cecilia and Shub, Yaqing confidently chose a song, but the result of her performance left Cecilia helplessly rubbing her forehead.
Shigure Kira was already prepared to watch the show.
In the video, Yaqing glanced at the camera, smiled slightly, and then his eyes turned melancholy. But he was not Otto after all.
"Too much of the past for one to remember..."
As soon as Yaqing opened his mouth, Shigure Kira was dumbfounded.
It wasn't that Yaqing sang badly, but rather that she sang so well that Shigure Kira could never reach such heights in her entire life.
"Lip-synced! Absolutely lip-synced!"
Shigure Kira panicked.
How could Yaqing, a duo who were both tone-deaf, suddenly learn to sing?!
Salome felt a pity welling up in her eyes.
It's not that she's pitiful, but that she's pitying others.
Shigure Kira was provoked by Salome's gaze.
"Salome, why are you looking at me like that? Yaqing is definitely lip-syncing. We've all seen how he sings."
Shigure Kira hurriedly searched for her teammates.
Salome declined Shigure Kira's friend request.
"Kira, actually..."
Salome didn't know whether she should tell Shigure Kira this cruel truth.
"Actually Yaqing has always sung very well. That time at the karaoke bar, I didn't want to embarrass you. Lady Cecilia wasn't helpless at that time, but was trying not to laugh."
Shigure Kira was struck dumb as if by lightning.
He was completely stunned.
Salome shook her head.
An idea suddenly popped into my head.
[Shigure Kira didn't even know that Lian Yaqing could sing, while Mobius had very likely already had Yaqing sing to him to sleep.]
Loser!
Meanwhile, Kevin finally felt that Yaqing's singing was just right after listening to it.
After all, there was a saying that circulated in the Chiyu Academy back then.
The prince is good at sports, while the demon king delights in music.
"I still prefer Yaqing's version."
Kevin was sprawled at his workstation, looking as if he was ready to dance the whole time.
The Raven at the opposite workstation looked at him with disdain.
[Damn those who use connections!]
Raven was very envious of Kevin's work ethic and schedule.
The newly released video has also received many comments.
"In terms of singing ability, Yaqing is better Otto, but in terms of emotion, ten Yaqing combined can't compare to one Otto!!!"
Late at night in Central Europe, a blond-haired man was frantically typing on his keyboard, muttering to himself.
"Yaqing, you little bastard, I knew I shouldn't have made that small request this afternoon, I never expected you to betray me like this!"
"Damn it, how could I possibly collapse here!"
"Go, Otto! For the Saintess!!!"
The slogans were shouted loudly, and Otto was as energetic as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
Wearing a silk nightgown, Kallen leaned against the door, looking incredibly alluring, while watching Otto frantically typing on the keyboard with a helpless expression.
They can't distinguish between primary and secondary issues at all.
She's already changed into silk pajamas!
When Kallen saw the video, she was thinking of rewarding Otto that night, but now it seems that Otto doesn't care about the reward.
Once Otto realizes what's happening, his resentment towards Yaqing will likely intensify.

Chapter 468, Thus Spoke Apocalypse showing.
April 1st is April Fool's Day.
On this special day, the chapter belonging to fools has begun.
In the Home Theater of Golden Courtyard, Elysia is holding a bucket of popcorn that is half her height, making people wonder if her slender and flat belly can really hold so much popcorn.
Eden watched this scene with doting affection.
"Seriously, I'm so tired from working overtime, why do I have to be dragged here to watch this?"
Sakura's flawless face was marred by dark circles under her eyes, and she looked extremely listless, as if she could fall asleep at any moment.
"Sakura-nee, since this chapter is Otto's main storyline, there must be a story related to Kallen. Sakura-nee, aren't you and Kallen best friends?"
The culprit, Pardo, scratched his head.
"Never mind, I'll watch it before I go to sleep."
On the surface, Sakura was persuaded by Pardo, but in reality...
In the back row, Yaqing, Mobius, Kevin, and Mei were still talking about the plot involving Otto.
"Stop talking, the plot has started."
Kevin covered his ears, looking pained.
Mainly, Mobius and May sat on either side, while Kevin and Yaqing sat in the middle. The two women kept talking about technical terms related to the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quanta, so Yaqing, as the screenwriter, wasn't completely confused.
Kevin is different.
He genuinely couldn't understand it at all.
As the story unfolds, the sounds of conversation gradually fade away.
On the dark screen, the title of this chapter appeared. "The Birth of Tragedy." Just seeing the title, everyone could feel a chilling aura emanating from it.
Elysia stopped popping popcorn into her mouth and turned to stare at Yaqing with resentment.
Before coming to the Home Theater, Yaqing had confidently told her that.
"Elysia, trust me, this week's plot will definitely not be angsty."
If it were anyone else, they would probably have ignored what Yaqing said, but Elysia was different; she chose to believe him.
Eden was taken aback.
In a rented room somewhere in Changkong City.
"Tragedy?"
A glint flashed in Kiana's eyes.
If someone else's story is a tragedy, she would feel worried, but if Otto's story has tragedy in its title, she would only feel excited, incredibly excited.
Otto, who was excited and high above everyone else, was brought down from his pedestal.
"Kiana, don't get so excited..."
Mei was still a little worried.
Kiana's act of opening champagne halfway through the game gave her a sense of unease.
What if the tragedy described above doesn't refer to Otto's tragedy, but rather to...
It's important to know that since Honkai 3rd was released online instead of in theaters, it's no longer the length of a single movie, but rather the combined length of multiple movies.
This is just the beginning. Although she was not involved in the production, she believed that Yaqing would never put the most exciting part at the beginning.
"Mei, what does it matter? If you don't kill Otto, you can kill me, right?"
Kiana said casually.
Mei declined to comment, knowing full well that making a prediction in advance was suicidal.
"Brainless Idiot, what if you're the one who gets stabbed?"
Bronya gave a half-smile.
