Unexpectedly, Kosma simply bypassed him and went downstairs.

"What's wrong with Amo?" Yaqing scratched her head, puzzled.

"Maybe the academic pressure is too much." Su pushed open the door and walked out. Next to Yaqing's room was Su's room.

"Looks like we'll have to find Sister Nia," Yaqing said.

"I think so too," Su said. "I've seen many students who couldn't think straight because of the pressure of senior year. We need to pay attention to Kosma's mentality."

Yaqing and Su went downstairs together.

Kosma sat alone on the sofa.

"Amo was acting really strange this morning. He didn't say a word and just sat down on the sofa by himself," Ling said, eating a steamed bun.

"I don't know. They just saw me and didn't even say hello. They even deliberately walked around me." Yaqing sat down next to Mobius.

"Kosma seemed to glance at Mobius before taking the buns to sit on the sofa," Mei said.

"What does this have to do with me?" Mobius snorted, her fair fingers peeling open the eggshell of the tea egg and placing the peeled egg on Yaqing's plate with great skill.

"Pardo, you're closest to Kosma, why don't you go ask him?"

"We?"

Seeing that everyone nodded, Pardo got up and walked to Kosma's side, then quickly returned, looking terrified.

"What's wrong?"

"Amo said he saw the Courtyard Devil last night. Could it be that there really is a demon in the courtyard?" Pardo trembled.

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, especially Eden, who couldn't believe there could be anything sinister in her courtyard.

The only ones who knew the truth, Yaqing and Mobius, were too embarrassed to come forward and explain. They couldn't very well say that they had been kissing passionately in a French style last night and that Kosma had seen them, so they quickly separated because they were a little embarrassed.

Did this lead Kosma to believe he was seeing the demon in the Golden Courtyard?

Kevin glanced at Yaqing with suspicion.

After breakfast, the people of Golden Courtyard went their separate ways, some to work and some to school. Yaqing and Mobius finally parted ways.

After driving Mobius to World Serpent Company, Yaqing drove to the Far East Branch of Schicksal, where the women were already waiting for him to start a meeting.

And that was the main purpose of his meeting today.

The promotional posters and trailers for the next movie, "Honkai 3: Angel Rebuild," are about to be released, and as the person in charge, he must confirm the documents are approved by the company.

Chapter 136 Promotional Video - Yang ChaoYue

When Yaqing arrived at the company.

The women in the conference room had been waiting for a long time, and the Far East Branch Schicksal was like a large machine that could start operating as soon as Yaqing gave the order.

"Boss, we've been waiting for you."

Shub is six years older Yaqing, but she is used to calling Yaqing" elder brother". Perhaps it is because of her carefree personality. She is the girl who has the best relationship with Yaqing among all the women.

It's like that, where neither of them sees the other as someone of the opposite sex.

"Actually, you don't need to wait for me." Yaqing said helplessly. He could have chosen not to come to the company, but they just wouldn't agree.

"Yaqing, if you can't even come to release the promotional video, when do you expect to come to work?" Patrick said.

"I work every day!" Yaqing angrily testified to her own case.

"That's not the key point. If you don't come and something goes wrong, who should we blame?" Cheng Lixue said with a smile.

"Hehe."

The Collapse Official Website has been updated again.

However, it wasn't an update to the web series, but rather the release of a promotional video.

The first thing to appear in the promotional video is the floating island of Schicksal, but it is no longer as quiet as before. Raging flames are burning and billowing black smoke is rising, leaving only ruins and devastation.

"Whether it was the Valkyrie on the front lines or the support personnel in the rear, everyone was dead."

Welt Yang's voice rang out, and the scene flashed by the damaged ruins of the Schicksal Laboratory until Durandal's back appeared. Following her gaze, Otto sat against the wall, already lifeless.

"I destroyed Schicksal."

The scene then shifts from the cold-toned Schicksal Headquarters to Anti-Entropy, where Welt Joyce and several doctors from Anti-Entropy are standing in the sunlight, laughing and joking – a flashback to Welt's time in the first film.

"In 1955, a man named Welt Joyce entrusted it to me with great care."

That was beneath a broken wall, the very spot where Joyce entrusted the First Herrscher Core to Welt Yang.

"A lightning strike at the opening ceremony!"

"No, Otto's actions are inhumane, what does that have to do with the Valkyrie?"

"Welt Joyce: Is this how I let you protect the world?!"

"So that's why Welt didn't have any scenes in either of the two movies. Turns out they were saving this for something big!"

"Won't the next storyline feature Welt as the main villain? And then Bronya defeats him, inherits the Herrscher of Reason Core, and changes her Welt the Duck!"

"What the hell is Welt Duck?!"

Welt Yang, who was in his office, was watching the trailer for Honkai 3rd and almost spat out the water he had just drunk.

"1955? That's the year Anti-Entropy was founded."

The screen went black, and only the symbol of Anti-Entropy was replaced by the symbol of Schicksal. Bronya's puzzled voice rang out.

"No, that was the day when Anti-Entropy was destroyed."

"Welt Joyce, Liesel Albert Einstein, Frederica Nikola Tesla, Emma Planck, Erwin Schrödinger, Margarita Ayert, Alva Edison."

Welt's tone was low, and the images flashed one by one of the founders of Anti-Entropy, but they were shown in their final moments.

"They were killed one by one by the Valkyrie of Schicksal before my eyes. And I could only run away shamefully, like a fearful and weak beast."

Young Welt Young tries to stop Joyce's bleeding.

"Hatred, confusion, despair."

"This is the foundation of everything, the purest and most powerful force."

The Herrscher Core was transferred from Welt Joyce to Welt Yang.

"Every dark night when I can't see the light, I dream of that man. He lies in a pool of blood, entrusting his name and the Herrscher Core to me."

The young Welt Yang gradually overlaps with the Welt Yang who first appeared.

"In the end, I came back, using his name."

"To fulfill his promise to fight for humanity."

In the first film, Welt Yang stands in the snowstorm, with the Titan Mechs being studied by Anti-Entropy behind him.

North America, Anti-Entropy Headquarters.

"So, in the original story, Chicken Head and I were already dead." Tesla slammed his fist on the soft sofa. "Killed by the Valkyrie of Schicksal, without a doubt. It must have been that bastard Otto who gave the order."

"That's not right, is it?" Edison noticed a plot hole. "It would be possible if the rest of us were killed by the Valkyrie of Schicksal, but you and Ai-in have already appeared, haven't you?"

"Right, if you and Ai Yin also went offline at the beginning of Anti-Entropy, then who will appear in the main storyline? Could it be that, like Yang, they are also your successors?" Schrödinger also realized this.

"How should I know?" Tesla was also somewhat confused about how the plot was unfolding.

"If he had been taught by Einstein and Tesla, I believe Yang would not have grown up like this. But if what he said is true, that you and I all died at the beginning of Anti-Entropy, it's not surprising that we grew up like this driven by hatred." Joyce was the man who knew Welt Yang best.

"We did not experience everything that Yang went through in the movie, so we are not qualified to judge his actions," Einstein said.

"Power, home, ideals."

Welt Young reappears, his model and appearance unchanged, but his demeanor is incredibly arrogant. He takes off his glasses, his eyes flashing with a blood-red light, and glances disdainfully at the camera.

"When I inherited the name of Welt, I also gained everything that man had."

The scene that appeared was from the promotional video for the web series Anti-Entropy: Origins, where Welt Joyce raised his hand to hold the Star of Eden, which shone with a crimson light.

"But there is nothing of my own under this name; I am merely playing the role of a shadow that has been dead for many years."

A group photo of the pioneers of Anti-Entropy has reappeared, their faces beaming with joy.

"But why should I play the role of a failed shadow?!"

"???" Joyce could have remained calm, but when he heard Welt Young in the video call him a loser.

"That's right! I killed the Herrscher of the Void!"

It is the scene in the first film where Welt Young, representing humanity, declares war on Sirin.

"They saved the world!"

"???" Sirin, who was watching the promotional video live, was completely bewildered. She remembered that it wasn't her father and mother who fought to the very end, and then Otto launched some kind of Honkai energy missile, which led to her and her mother's deaths.

Not only was Sirin bewildered, but the fans in the live stream were also stunned.

"I did it! What that man couldn't do!"

"I have surpassed him!!!"

"This is my own strength! My own destiny! My own ideal!"

Welt Young floated in the air, his palms gleaming with blue light.

"This is the real me!"

The promotional video has ended.

Chapter 137 of the official comic: "The Twin Chapter"

Unsurprisingly, the promotional video caused a huge uproar online.

"Wow, Welt really did become the villain, killing all the members of Schicksal, even Otto couldn't escape."

"I feel like this is a bit fake. It seems like the trailer was misleading; the plot doesn't flow smoothly."

["In the last movie, the Queen almost wiped out Anti-Entropy's forces, but Welt didn't show up. Could he be hiding in the shadows plotting something?"]

"How did Welt manage to break through the ranks of the Schicksal's forces?"

"What if someone awakens the full power of the Herrscher of Reason?"

North America, Anti-Entropy Headquarters.

"What do you all think?" Joyce asked the group.

"I'll just stand here and watch," Edison said with a dry joke. "I don't think that President Yaqing would take this opportunity to smear us, after all, based on the current plot, he's been smearing..."

Edison stopped mid-sentence, saying that she also couldn't understand Yaqing's actions, or rather, no one could understand them at the moment.

"I can't see through him," Edison shook his head.

"It shouldn't be that bad. If Yang becomes the villain, wouldn't the slogan of fighting for humanity in the first movie become a joke?" Schrödinger said uncertainly, "Even if he wanted to smear Anti-Entropy, he wouldn't risk Honkai the Honkai series."

"Who knows that?" Einstein suddenly said.

"What kind of normal person would be raised by Otto?" Tesla clearly harbored deep resentment towards Otto.

"That's right."

"It's so short."

The two-minute promotional video ended quickly.

Kiana stretched, her usually unremarkable curves becoming incredibly alluring. Lying on the sofa, she idly fiddled with the remote control, saying, "There's nothing good anime to watch."

Beside her was Kallen, who was doing the same thing.

Sitting with Theresa and the other two, no one would guess that the three women in front of them were actually from three different generations.

"It's all the same formula. Every time I see the beginning, I can guess how the story will develop later." Kallen yawned.

"Kiana," Theresa said with ill intent, "Aren't you going to be late for class?"

"Oh no!" Kiana finally exclaimed, "Why didn't Mei and the others call me?"
