Chapter 218
Z Siegfried and Kiana are theoretically father and daughter, but they were enemies in their past lives.
Kiana was the Second Herrscher who caused Durandal's mother's death, but now Kiana is Durandal's sister.
Enchanted Kiana is a clone of Durandal, the True Kiana, and is Kiana's physical mother.
Theresa is Kiana's aunt, but they were also sworn brothers in a past life...
It's a complete mess.
"Mei, let's stay away from them. Their relationship is too complicated." Seeing this, Raiden Ryoma moved Raiden Mei to the side.
"Oh." Raiden Mei suddenly realized that her family situation was quite simple; her mother had just passed away from "cancer."
Furthermore, Chen Li also gave Raiden Ryoma and Raiden Mei each a Friends Circle Terminal, along with a Resurrection Card link, giving them the possibility of reviving the dead.
This made Raiden Mei even more grateful to Chen Li.
Coincidentally, Raiden Ryoma thought the same thing.
Z Siegfried captured Theresa and brought the Key of Constraint to obtain the Resurrection Card Link. If he didn't give something in return, Raiden Ryoma would feel guilty.
But aside from those who are too empathetic to bear watching this family drama involving the four people, there are also people who deliberately squat down to the side, eating melon seeds while watching the show.
"Sirin, what are you doing?"
"Me? I'm just watching the fun. Have you two decided who will be called Kiana yet?" Sirin shouted at Durandal and Kiana, never one to miss a good spectacle.
"If Durandal continues to be Kiana, then I've already given you a name, Kiana."
"What's your name?" Kiana asked, almost as if possessed.
"Kiana."
"..."
"Sigh, don't you like this name? Then Roaring Moon Sea Fish Cat will do."
"Don't treat children like toys." Chen Li tapped Sirin on the head.
The situation becomes even more complicated if we add Sirin to this group of three white fluffy balls and one yellow fluffy ball.
Or rather, for Kiana, the situation is more complicated.
Durandal, the True Kiana, is Kiana's mother in a physical sense; Sirin, the Herrscher of the Void, is Kiana's mother in a spiritual sense; and Cecilia is Kiana's mother in terms of psychological identification.
It's safe to say that Kiana will never lack maternal love in her life.
"We've already discussed it, and Kiana will continue to inherit this name," Durandal said.
Bianka Durandal Atagina—each of these three names carries Durandal's irreplaceable Remembrance.
Therefore, Durandal has no intention of changing her name.
"Although the process of getting familiar with it was somewhat arduous, I am very grateful for your help to my father and to my mother in resurrecting her," Durandal said to Chen Li she handed him the Sixth God Key, the Black Orchid White Flower.
"Now this God Key is yours."
All the God Key were forged by the Moth Chasing Flame of the Previous Civilization, and it seems reasonable that the Moth Chasing Flame come from the past to the present to reclaim the God Key.
Of course, the key issue is that we can't beat them.
If the God Key is not held by Durandal, but rather by Otto who decides whether to keep or discard it, then a battle must be fought first.
The "reason" in "reason" is also the "reason" in "physics".
Physics is also a kind of principle.
That makes sense.
"This God Key... we will take back the Moth Chasing Flame for a period of research, and then return it," Chen Li said after glancing at the inscription on the Sixth God Key.
Life, Death, The Strongest...
The entries on the Sixth God Key are all good, but the [Life] entry can be replaced by the [Abundance] entry. In addition, Chen Li also has a Death Note, and the [Death] entry on it is even brighter than the entries on the Black Orchid White Flower.
The strongest attribute that Chen Li was interested in was formed from the historical fact that "the Black Orchid White Flower has always been held by the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal." Extraction it would not affect the function of the Black Orchid White Flower.
The purpose of studying the God Key is to gain more inspiration from God Key in order to create even stronger God Key.
Vill-V never bothered to create the same weapon again; the next God Key she forged using the Herrscher of Death core would surely be even more powerful!
"Can it be returned?"
"Of course, we didn't come to the Current Civilization to rob it. We will only take what we left behind that is useful to us. After all, the Current Civilization also has to resist the Honkai." Chen Li nodded.
"Thank you," Durandal said after a moment's hesitation.
"If you are truly grateful, could you lend us Durandal for research?" Chen Li asked.
"What? You want to study my sister?" Kiana asked in surprise.
"It's not about studying Durandal, it's about studying the Holy Sword Durandal. The Holy Sword Durandal was also a weapon created by the Moth Chasing Flame, but this weapon is very unique. After it was created, it entered a state of feigned death not long after it was forged, so there isn't much experimental data in the Void Archive," Chen Li said.
"Yes. But the Holy Sword Durandal has undergone a deeper fusion with me. The Shining Armor I manifested when fighting Sirin was a manifestation of the Holy Sword Durandal," Durandal said.
"Don't worry, Vill-V will handle it. If all else fails, you can use the Void Archive to create a replica of the Holy Sword Durandal, which will also help us with our research."
"Can I use the Void Archive?"
"Theoretically speaking, only those who are recognized by the Void Archive can use the Void Archive, but Vill-V left a backdoor in the Void Archive, so there is no problem."
"Okay, I'm willing to cooperate." Durandal nodded.
"In return, we can help you stabilize the World Bubble inside your body," Chen Li said.
"You can do it?" Durandal, somewhat surprised.
Durandal was criticized by her orphanage counselor as a slow-witted idiot when she was young, Kiana perfectly inherited all of Durandal's personality traits in this respect.
But the reason Durandal was able to cultivate herself into such a rigid and strict Valkyrie is because, as Valkyrie, one could die unexpectedly at any time.
Durandal had long prepared for her death, but Durandal also meant that the World Bubble within her could not be sustained.
It is because of the Bond with her friends that Durandal works so hard to improve herself, correct her shortcomings, and become as perfect as possible.
"Vill-V can definitely do it," Chen Li said confidently.
"Why do you say that Vill-V can do everything? What can you do?" Kiana asked curiously.
"We Vill-V different roles. Vill-V 're responsible for solving the problems that We can solve, while I'm responsible for solving the problems that Vill-V can't solve," Chen Li said with considerable confidence.
Chen Li didn't think he was any more talented Vill-V, but Chen Li knew his advantage lay in creating Miraculous Item.
"For example?"
"For example, creating Revival Artifacts."
"That's really impressive." Everyone nodded in agreement.
If Chen Li were to use something else as an example, some people would always find something to criticize. But if you say you can resurrect others, then there's nothing to say. After all, who doesn't have a few people they want to resurrect?
"I am Miraculous Forger. My job is to forge Miraculous Item and then distribute Miraculous Item to others so that they can create Miracle. That's why I had Sirin collect the users of the God Key well when she was collecting them. I wanted to test whether these users of the God Key were suitable to wield Miraculous Item to create Miracle."
"So what do you think of my older sister?" Kiana asked.
"Perfect, powerful, and with a strong sense of justice! A qualified holder of a rare Miraculous Item," Chen Li couldn't help but praise.
"So, are you planning to create Miraculous Item for my older sister?"
"Uh, I haven't thought of anything. Because I really can't think of any other Durandal could use," Chen Li sighed.
Durandal's Honkai energy resistance increases with the amount of Honkai energy she is exposed to; she can grow stronger through hard work in the realm of combat; she possesses the bloodline of the Kaslana family; she can obtain the Power of Tianyuan by passing trials; she wields the Holy Sword Durandal; she has a World Bubble within her body; and she holds the Sixth God Key...
She could even fight for more than thirty days without sleep, sweeping away all the global Honkai events in one fell swoop.
How can we improve this?
She's practically a superhero!
Chen Li creates Miraculous Item so that those who need Miracle can create Miracle, but what does Durandal need?
Even Durandal couldn't think of anything else she needed, let alone Chen Li.
"You don't need to trouble yourself to think about what kind of Miraculous Item to create for me. I'm already satisfied with being able to resurrect my mother and ensure the survival of the World Bubble within me. I only hope that the Herrscher of the Void, Sirin, won't take her anger out on the entire Schicksal because of Otto's matter. After all, the Current Civilization still has the Honkai to resist, and Schicksal's position is irreplaceable." Durandal looked at Sirin, who was watching the drama unfold on the side.
Once the issue of the survival of the World Bubble within Durandal's body is resolved, Durandal will truly enter a state of "I lack nothing".
"Sigh, me? Don't worry, I've had enough of Otto. And I have no intention of taking my anger out on Schicksal." Sirin waved her hand.
"Can you release my grandfather now?" Theresa looked at the sack that Sirin had dragged when she returned to Raiden Mei's house.
Theresa knew that her grandfather was in that sack, but Theresa also knew that she couldn't untie it.
"Ask Chen Li about that. He seems to need Otto." Sirin said casually.
"What do you want my grandfather for?" Theresa turned to look at Chen Li.
"It's getting cold, and it's time for Schicksal to go bankrupt." Chen Li sighed, his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky.
"Ah?"
"What Lord Chen Li means is that the world is currently divided into three factions: Schicksal, Anti-Entropy, and World Serpent, each ruling their own territory. In this situation, how can we talk about fighting against the Honkai? Therefore, it's time to ensure that there is only one voice in this world fighting against the Honkai." Gray Serpent No. 2 silently stepped forward and explained Chen Li's meaning.
"If it's really just to fight the Honkai, then I have no objection, but can Anti-Entropy agree to that? And what is the World Serpent?" Theresa tilted her head.
"You don't even know about the World Serpent? The Lady. Theresa, you've really failed as the head of the Far East Branch."
"... Do you know how many uses there are for Judah?" Feeling the Gray Serpent looking at her with pity, Theresa couldn't help but clench the Oath of Judah, which was taller Theresa and weighed 152 kilograms.
"Theresa, you arrived a bit late, so you might not know. The World Serpent is an organization passed down from Previous Civilization, and it has been lurking in the shadows ever since," Z Siegfried explained.
"Tch, never even heard of it, so it can't be that good," Theresa said unhappily.
The Gray Serpent smiled without saying a word.
"There are no problems with the World Serpent; they can merge. As for Anti-Entropy... they agreed very quickly, or rather, a little too quickly," Gray Serpent said.
The World Serpent organization is worth one shi (a unit of weight in China), with the Gray Serpent alone accounting for 90% of it.
As long as the Gray Serpent agrees, it's equivalent to the World Serpent agreeing, so there's no problem.
The combination of Slap Gloves and Friends Circle Terminal allows Gray Serpent to contact anyone in the world within three minutes.
The six degrees of separation theory states that, on average, it takes only six people or fewer to connect with anyone in the world.
Gray Serpent, on the other hand, is better suited to this glove because he has spies all over the world.
In just three minutes, Gray Serpent made contact with Dr. Einstein of Anti-Entropy and Welt, the Anti-Entropy Leader was lurking in the St. Freya Academy.
Of course, the Raiden Ryoma would be even faster, since the Raiden Ryoma only needs one slap.
The problem is that Gray Serpent is too eager to improve.
Faced with multiple threats and temptations, including the Slap Gloves, the Revival Match Miraculous Item, Cocolia had turned into Slime, and the witness Raiden Ryoma, Anti-Entropy readily agreed to the merger request.
The Slap Gloves proved that Chen Li could assassinate any high-ranking member of Anti-Entropy at any time if he wanted to.
Cocolia was turned into Slime, proving that Chen Li could make them wish they were dead.
The Revival Match was that sweet treat, so sweet that the higher-ups at Anti-Entropy simply couldn't refuse it.
If you have Resurrection Card, then whether it's the real Welt, the first Anti-Entropy Leader, or those comrades who died fighting against the Honkai, they can all return to your side!
Anti-Entropy has never experienced such a wonderful start.
"Aren't you afraid they'll go back on their word?" Theresa, somewhat worried.
"This item is called the Forced Transaction Coin. Contracts made in front of this coin are absolutely binding. So there's no need to worry about them going back on their word." Gray Serpent took out the Forced Transaction Coin.
Upon hearing this, Durandal couldn't help but look at Sirin, who had forced her to make a vow.
"Is it that simple?" Theresa was still a little worried.
"The world is a giant makeshift stage. When you have the power to overturn the table, you don't need to care about logic at all. And reality is often more absurd than fiction. For example, some actors can actually become president because they played a good president in a TV series." Chen Li shrugged.
Before Chen Li created the Miraculous Item, he had to carefully survive in the Honkai world. If Chen Li created more than twenty Miraculous Item and still had to carefully survive in the Honkai world, then wouldn't Chen Li have created these Miraculous Item for nothing?
"So now it's all down to Schicksal, right? If Grandpa comes out, with his prestige in Schicksal, this alliance will be a piece of cake. If Grandpa doesn't cooperate, it will be very troublesome," Theresa said.
Although Theresa knew that her grandfather had done many immoral things, and that Theresa only went to the Far East Branch to establish St. Freya Academy because she almost broke with Otto was still Theresa's grandfather.
Or... break all five limbs, leaving only a breath of life.
Theresa was also afraid that Otto would pull off some more big stunts.
"Don't worry, Otto will agree, because the Resurrection Card can also Resurrection Card Kallen, provided I, as the approver, agree. After the river of time was severed, the only known method to Resurrection Card is the Resurrection Card. Since Otto will cooperate, there's no need to be polite to him," Chen Li said.
"What If my grandfather dies, can I resurrect him... and can I choose to resurrect my grandfather from 500 years ago?" Theresa suddenly asked.
