Shigure Kira walked, she complained, "And we don't even know when the overtime will start. This is too difficult..."

As she spoke, Shigure Kira glanced at Ling Xi with a hint of resentment. After all, this matter did seem to be related to Sirin, and Sirin was related to Ling Xi, so it was practically Ling Xi's fault.

"Don't look at me, it's none of my business."

Ling Xi also firmly denied being blamed, saying, "Although the photo does indeed show Sirin, as I said, Sirin was at my house all night."

"Yes, yes, I didn't say anything, did I?"

Shigure Kira, or rather, she was too lazy to refute it. After all, the bishop and the captain were willing to believe it, so even if she had doubts, it would be useless. Besides...

Whether it's Sirin or not, we'll probably find out soon.

"Ling Xi, where are you staying now? Let me take you home."

Although Shigure Kira was somewhat concerned about Sirin's identity, Ling Xi was not an enemy after all, so she also planned to escort Ling Xi. After all, this guy was just a twelve-year-old child, and it wouldn't be fun if he got lost.

"Okay, thanks then."

Ling Xi didn't refuse Shigure Kira's kindness; after all, it would be nice to have someone accompany her while walking and chatting, especially since it was a beautiful girl...

"You're welcome. If you want to thank me, then treat me to milk tea another day."

Shigure Kira smiled as well.

"Okay, no problem."

Ling Xi smiled and nodded. Sigh, you can only say that girls really love milk tea.

"By the way, Qiluo, what generation of Valkyrie armor are you using now?"

As they walked, Ling Xi asked Shigure Kira another question, this time about the Valkyrie armor. According to the original story, the Valkyrie armor at this point in time should be the first or second generation, and even the third-generation Valkyrie armor like White Comet had not been mass-produced!

However, when Fu Hua and Sirin confronted each other yesterday, Fu Hua seemed to be using Soul Steel Armor, which appears to be the fourth-generation Valkyrie Armor, so Ling Xi was curious about this.

"Mmm..."

Shigure Kira thought for a moment and said, "It should be considered the second generation, but I heard that the third generation is already under research and testing. But don't ask me about the specifics, because I'm not very clear about it either."

"Yeah..."

Hearing this, Ling Xi became even more curious. Where did Fu Hua get her armor?

Could it be... that Otto secretly researched and developed this specifically for Fu Hua?

Well, that possibility cannot be ruled out.

With Otto's archaeological abilities, he might already have mastered the technology for Soul Steel Armor!

Although Ling Xi had always believed that Otto was suppressing technology, after contacting Otto, Ling Xi realized that this conclusion wasn't entirely accurate, but it wasn't entirely wrong either. Simply put, Otto didn't suppress technological development, but he usually didn't deliberately promote it either; rather...

The goal is to keep Schicksal's technology at a level that can suppress the Honkai. If the Honkai strengthens, Otto will start archaeology to improve the core technology and continue to suppress the Honkai!

Therefore, you can say that Otto did not spread technology, but you can never say that he suppressed technology.

As for whether suppression technology has a future...

Well, judging from Ling Xi's experience in the Previous Era, it's clear that there's no future in it. After all, everything humanity has now is based on technology. Whether it's the Divine Key or the Fused Warrior, these achievements are all built on basic science.

Therefore, unless humans truly live their entire lives in an agricultural era, and then have a few Fused Warrior protect them like Immortal, then perhaps humanity could exist for a long time.

Wait a minute... this sounds a bit like the Kaeria story?

Uh, this is a mix-up, but then again, Teyvat seems to be a world in the Mihoyo universe, so this shouldn't be considered a mix-up.

So, is it still possible for me to meet the master carver?

Okay, okay, I've gone off-topic. In short, we can't say that Otto was suppressing possibilities; at most, we can only say that he was blocking technology from the outside world.

"Beep beep..."

Suddenly, Shigure Kira's tactical goggles lit up, and a communication voice immediately came through. "Breaking news! A large number of Honkai Energy reactions have occurred in Southeast Asia, and the number of Honkai Beast is increasing. Wolfpack Squad, assemble immediately and depart in five minutes."

"They've come after all..."

Upon receiving the message, Shigure Kira smiled helplessly at Ling Xi and said, "Sorry, Ling Xi, it seems you have to go back by yourself. After all, as you can see, your sister has to start working overtime."

"Um... Sister?"

Ling Xi was speechless. Even without considering the 50,000 years and 4,000 years, she should still be older than him.

"Okay, I understand."

However, Ling Xi was too lazy to complain about this issue at this point. There was nothing she could do; that was just how the Sasha Gene was designed.

"Okay, then you go back and keep a close eye on Sirin."

Shigure Kira smiled, then her lazy aura vanished, replaced by utmost seriousness. After all... she was A-rank Valkyrie!

After saying that, Shigure Kira turned around and prepared to run towards the Wolfpack Squad's base. The battle was about to begin!

"Wait a moment."

Watching Shigure Kira's retreating figure, Ling Xi suddenly called out to her.

"What's wrong?"

Although Shigure Kira was somewhat puzzled, she still stopped.

"This is for you."

Ling Xi threw a metal syringe directly at Shigure Kira.

"Um?"

Seeing what Ling Xi threw over, Shigure Kira was a little puzzled, but she still easily caught it and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"Stigmata Gene".

Ling Xi simply smiled slightly. "As an A-rank Valkyrie, you should know what this is. I can't tell you exactly how it came about, but I can tell you that this is a unique Stigmata Gene belongs exclusively to you. Only you can use it without any side effects, and it can give you tremendous power."

As she spoke, Ling Xi turned and walked towards her residence, waving her hand and saying, "Anyway, whether you believe it or not, see you later. I'll treat you to milk tea then."

After saying that, Ling Xi didn't bother to explain further and simply left.

"Um... thank you."

Although Shigure Kira still had some doubts, she thanked her. As for the Stigmata Gene...

I'll keep it for now and take it back to study it properly when I have time!

Chapter 636 Southeast Asia Great Honkai!

"I hope she'll be alright this time too..."

Watching Shigure Kira's retreating figure, Ling Xi was also somewhat moved, because he actually quite liked this girl's character. It would be such a pity for her to sacrifice herself or fall into the Quantum Sea, so...

Let's help her improve her strength a little.

As for the Stigmata Gene that were just given to him, they were drawn by Ling Xi when Xiao Sirin was still in the Previous Era. Although he didn't draw too many five-star Stigmata, he drew a lot of four-star Stigmata. If he could convert them, he would have decomposed them all into "laundry detergent" long ago!

Shigure Kira Stigmata herself has one and a half sets of stigmata, but of course, Hannah has the most, at least twenty sets...

So Ling Xi gave a set to Shigure Kira. If she injected it, she would definitely become stronger, although her potential wouldn't be as high as a five-star Stigmata, but...

Judging from the strength of Fairy Lady and Sakura in the Previous Era, even with a four-star Stigmata, she could probably reach or approach the level of a modern S-rank Valkyrie!

While surpassing Dvalinn and Mother-in-Law is unlikely, reaching the level of Deli and Sister Ta should not be difficult. After all, Sister Ta is perhaps the weakest of all the S-class characters. As for Li Sushang...

Don't even think about it, there's no way you can beat them. You might not even be able to beat the Dvalinn and your mother-in-law, after all...

Ling Xi had experienced firsthand just how terrifying the complete form of the Tai Xu Sword Qi was!

"Ling Xi, you're finally back."

Inside the villa, Fu Hua breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Ling Xi return, as she had just received a message from Otto: the Honkai... had reappeared!

"Ling Xi".

Ein also leaned closer and said softly, "There's good news and bad news. The good news is that Sirin has been basically cleared of suspicion, but the bad news..."

Ein quickly tapped a few times on the virtual keyboard and said, "According to the analysis report sent by Dr. Tesla, in the core area of Honkai outbreak, there is an outbreak point with Honkai Energy exceeding 2000 HW, in other words..."

"The third Herrscher may have been born!"

Ling Xi: "???"

Holy crap, wait a minute, the Third Herrscher?

The Third Herrscher is Mei. Although she's probably over 20 now, Mei became Herrscher back in 2014, which is 14 years earlier!

Moreover, Mei isn't like Old Yang or Motorbuck who inherited the core of Herrscher; she's a true Herrscher body, so...

It's unlikely that the Third Herrscher will appear now, since that position belongs to Mei.

"Of course, this is just speculation at the moment, and we need to investigate the specific situation before we can say anything."

Ein unfolded the virtual image again and said, "The Wolfpack Squad will arrive at the target area soon, and then the truth may come out."

"Hmph, I knew it couldn't be me."

Sirin pursed her lips, completely unconcerned about the Honkai. As long as the other party didn't provoke her, she had no interest in being their enemy.

"Of course."

Ling Xi ruffled Sirin's hair and laughed, "After all, I said from the beginning that it couldn't be Sirin."

"Uh-huh..."

Fu Hua nodded slightly, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief. At least... she didn't have to be enemies with Sirin anymore!

Of course, on the other hand, the two are still enemies.

"Hey-hey..."

Sirin smiled with satisfaction. Now that she had gotten rid of the blame, she was determined to make that Valkyrie named Cheng Lixue cry tomorrow.

At this time, under the organization of Schicksal, a large number of people in Southeast Asia began to evacuate, because Southeast Asia was now shrouded in Honkai, with at least 100,000 Honkai Beast in this area.

However, even in such danger, reporters are still on the front lines reporting the news.

Ling Xi's family also watched the live stream from home, partly to ascertain the local situation and partly to determine whether they needed to intervene.

To be honest, Ling Xi felt it was unnecessary. With her mother-in-law and the Wolfpack Squad she brought, the Honkai Beast could be easily wiped out, and as for the enemy...

As long as it's not a true Herrscher, it can be easily eliminated!

Of course, if Third Herrscher really does appear, then...

We'll see. If my mother-in-law can't win or is even forced to release her Holy Blood, then I'll definitely have to take Fu Hua and Sirin to help. My mother-in-law... can't die. If she dies, then we'll just be forcibly returning to the main storyline.

Sirin changed her own fate, and the fate of both Kiana...

You can change yourself!

At that moment, the television was broadcasting news from Shenzhou Television...

"Hello everyone, this is Bing Bing, our reporter. We are currently in the capital of Southeast Asia. As you can see, the Honkai Energy content in the air is rising rapidly, and according to reports, the nearest Honkai Beast is less than three kilometers away from our area..."

Afterwards, Bing Bing gave a detailed report on the local situation and the arrival of the Schicksal troops...

Ling Xi: "???" Holy crap, Bing Bing, weren't you in the National Games live stream? What are you doing here?

Forget about the details, don't worry about these things, do you understand parallel universes?

Soon, the scene shifted to the front lines, where local armed forces, including various tanks and armored vehicles, appeared to block the advancing Honkai Beast. However...

Conventional weapons couldn't even break through the Honkai Beast's defenses. In no time, the defensive line was completely torn apart, and the rout began.

Humanity's conventional power is no match for Honkai Beast!

Currently, there are roughly three ways to effectively combat Honkai Beast: the Valkyrie of Schicksal, the Anti-Entropy Mecha, and... humanity's exclusive weapons against Honkai Beast!

However, compared to the former two, the latter is far inferior in both mobility and energy consumption, and...

The Valkyrie's power far surpasses that of the latter!

"Captain, we have arrived at the designated area."

On the other side, after half an hour of high-speed flight, the Wolfpack Squad also arrived at the front line and began to slow down and descend.

"Okay, proceed according to plan!"
