Dong Moxuan and Cocolia

"Jun... Jun Xuan..."

Mei, who had finally recovered, looked at the boy holding her, her voice weak.

"I... I'm fine..."

I was saved by Jun Xuan again...

"Oh, is someone actually standing with a Herrscher?"

On the other side, the blonde woman also expressed her surprise at Dong Moxuan's appearance.

"And it's a man. A man who can survive Honkai. This kind of Honkai Energy adaptability... Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

After a couple of exclamations, the woman said to Dong Moxuan.

"Young man, you probably don't know what kind of existence the woman beside you truly is, do you?"

"She is an envoy chosen by Honkai, an enemy of human civilization!"

"The current state of Changkong City is her doing!"

"Your family, friends, and classmates all died because of her."

"Even so, you still choose to stand by her side?"

"Madam Cocolia, it's been a few years, but your ability to deceive people hasn't diminished at all!"

Hearing the familiar voice coming from within the Titan, Dong Moxuan knew that meeting that person was unavoidable.

He could only sigh softly, take Mei's hand, and stand up from the ground.

"This Honkai was caused by Mei? We're all adults! Don't tell me such a ridiculous lie?"

"You..."

Upon hearing Dong Moxuan's voice, the blonde woman, Cocolia, whose expression had been as calm as an ancient well, suddenly trembled.

As Dong Moxuan's face gradually appeared on the screen, the shock on Cocolia's face was almost tangible.

Not only her, but even the silver-haired girl standing beside Cocolia with a perpetually blank expression had a look of unprecedented wavering in her eyes.

"Long time no see, Madam Cocolia!"

With a wry smile, Dong Moxuan's face was filled with helplessness.

"You... you are..."

Recognizing the identity of the young man before her, Cocolia's surprise instantly turned into rage.

"Zhang! Da! Wei!"

Dong Moxuan: "..."

Hearing this somewhat incongruous name, Dong Moxuan coughed awkwardly, and even Mei beside him had a subtle expression.

"You actually dare to appear before me again..."

Seeing Dong Moxuan's embarrassed demeanor, Cocolia's anger intensified, and she almost gritted her teeth as she spoke the rest.

"You... traitor!"

"Hey, Madam Cocolia,"

Even though he couldn't see it, Dong Moxuan could imagine how furious that woman must be.

This is why I didn't want to come out...

I thought Mei could handle these Titans...

Dong Moxuan sighed inwardly.

"Regardless, calling me a traitor is a bit much, don't you think?"

"I was loyal to you, Madam Cocolia, back in the day..."

"Oh?"

Cocolia laughed in anger.

"Your so-called loyalty was to leak almost half of Anti-Entropy's core data to Schicksal and World Serpent, causing Anti-Entropy to suffer heavy losses?"

Dong Moxuan: "..."

Listening to Cocolia enumerate his crimes, Dong Moxuan coughed awkwardly.

What he did back then was indeed not right.

However...

"You can't put it that way,"

Looking at the Titan mecha before him, Dong Moxuan said with a serious face, "Didn't I also leak some of Schicksal's core data to Anti-Entropy? When you add and subtract, Anti-Entropy actually didn't lose anything!"

Cocolia: "..."

It seemed she had underestimated the extent of this guy's shamelessness.

"Zhang Dawei!"

"Here!"

"Hand over the Herrscher behind you first. We can discuss your matters later!"

"My apologies, Madam Cocolia,"

Dong Moxuan's expression remained unchanged in the face of Cocolia's command.

"This… I'm afraid I can't do that!"

As he said this, Dong Moxuan shielded Mei behind him.

"Hmm?"

Cocolia frowned slightly upon hearing Dong Moxuan's reply.

"Zhang Dawei! You're not a child anymore! You were once my chief scientist, you should know what a 'Herrscher' represents!!" "They are the enemy of human civilization, the source of all disasters." "They are the embodiment of ill omen, the harbinger of destruction!" "Do you know what you're doing?" "Staying with that woman will only make you… "

"Enough!"

Seeing the girl beside him slowly lower her head because of Cocolia's words, Dong Moxuan ignored their past friendship and sharply retorted, "Cocolia! Whether she's a Herrscher or not, Mei is my friend. Don't push it too far!"

Cocolia was silent…

After hearing Dong Moxuan's reprimand, Cocolia fell silent.

After a long pause, Cocolia's voice finally came from within the Titan.

"Zhang Dawei…"

Cocolia's voice was low, giving Dong Moxuan a bad feeling.

"You…"

"Are actually yelling at me for that woman?"

Dong Moxuan was speechless…

Dong Moxuan choked, almost passing out. 'Madam Cocolia, is your focus a little… off?'

"Um, Madam Cocolia…"

"Hmph, since you want to protect that Herrscher, let's see if you have what it takes!"

Cocolia was clearly furious and completely ignored Dong Moxuan, directly controlling the Titan to surround them.

Seeing this, Dong Moxuan sighed helplessly. He took out a shiny silver cylinder and pressed it lightly.

Thwip…

Instantly, the Titans seemed to short-circuit and all collapsed on the ground.

"Titans… how could this happen…"

Looking at the scene transmitted through the camera, Cocolia's pupils contracted sharply.

"Madam Cocolia…"

After dealing with all the Titans, Dong Moxuan calmly put the cylinder in his pocket and explained to the Titan in front of him, "You should remember that I supervised the manufacturing of more than half of your Titans, right?" "And I also maintained and repaired the other half…"

Hearing Dong Moxuan's explanation, Cocolia seemed to understand something.

"You bastard, don't tell me…"

Dong Moxuan didn't let her finish. He took out a dark blue device and pressed it lightly.

"Goodbye, Madam Cocolia."

Zzzzt!

With a sound of electrical interruption, the screen in front of Cocolia instantly went black.

"Whew…"

Dong Moxuan breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the scene before him.

"Looks like it's temporarily resolved…"

However, he knew that the backdoor he had left in the Titans would only last for about half an hour at most.

"Mei…"

He gently held Mei's hand.

"While the Titans are temporarily paralyzed, let's get out of here quickly!"

"Huh?"

After listening to Dong Moxuan's words, Mei, who had been lost in thought, suddenly snapped back to reality.

Her expression was a little hesitant.

"Bu-but..."

"What is it? Mei, is there something else?"

"...No, it's nothing."

In the end, Mei said nothing.

As Dong Moxuan pulled her along and they ran, she subconsciously glanced back in a certain direction.

In that direction, a white plush toy hung on a shattered wall panel, tattered and worn.
