Kira, You Wouldn't Want to Lose Your Divine Key, Would You?
"Hehe..."
Facing Ling Xi's murderous gaze, Ein simply smiled calmly, "If Ling Xi wanted to attack me, you wouldn't be wasting your breath talking to me. Besides, Ling Xi, you should be able to see that neither Schicksal nor Anti-Entropy can ignore your existence now. Not to mention your unawakened companions, even..."
"With your current power, you, Fu Hua, Sirin, including Cheng Lixue... and perhaps Shigure Kira, and you..."
Ein said with utmost seriousness, "Now that we are the strongest force in this era, you don't take either Schicksal or Anti-Entropy seriously, right?"
"Oh... you can even tell that?"
Ling Xi was even more surprised. This girl was really amazing. She was truly worthy of being called Ein.
Moreover, Ein is right. In her eyes, neither Schicksal nor Anti-Entropy is a threat now!
First of all, Otto has already reached a cooperation agreement with me, and I can freely allocate the resources of Schicksal!
Secondly, Cecilia has retired, Theresa is also preparing to leave, and the two newly promoted S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal are both at home. Although Cheng Lixue is not very close to him, under Fu Hua's influence, she will definitely stand on his side in the end!
As for Shigure Kira, while it's uncertain for now, once he's won her over, she'll probably be on his side. Meanwhile...
And then there's Little Li Zi, who can be awakened at any time; he's also an S-class combatant!
Finally, there's Immortal Fu Hua, whose Honkai Energy is close to 3000HW and who can unleash the Tai Xu Sword Qi anytime, anywhere, as well as the Second Herrscher Sirin!
Therefore, what Ein just said was not flattery, but the truth. The strength she possesses has already surpassed both Schicksal and Anti-Entropy!
After all, Otto is only thinking about Kallen right now. If Ling Xi were to revive Kallen now, Otto would definitely hand over the Schicksal to Ling Xi without hesitation and then take Kallen on vacation. As for Anti-Entropy, there's no need to mention that right now there's only Old Yang, who just came out of the medical pod a few days ago!
"Ah, of course, so..."
Ein shrugged and smiled, "For you, whether I know about this or not, you won't harm me, because you won't be afraid of me knowing about it. For someone with Jedi power like you, I... am not a threat."
Ling Xi "..."
At this moment, Ling Xi was completely Ein. This girl... if the Previous Era had also had Ein and Tesla, perhaps humanity could have made even greater progress, but...
It's not too late now. Let's introduce Ein and Tesla to the Doctor after they Doctor up!
"Um, Ling Xi..."
At this moment, Ein spoke again, laughing, "Can you let go of me now? My wrist is hurting a little from your grip."
"Um... I'm sorry."
Ling Xi quickly released Ein's wrist and apologized. After all, she had never meant Ein any harm. In the original story, Ein was someone worth befriending, and in this timeline, Ein had given her tremendous help, so...
In any case, Ling Xi would not hurt Ein.
"It doesn't matter."
Ein rubbed her wrist and asked, "So, Ling Xi, can you tell me more about the Previous Era? I can promise not to tell a third person, or even..."
Ein smiled slightly and said, "If you're not comfortable with that, we... can become friends!"
Ling Xi: "???"
I think that's your real purpose...
And... this girl is so flat-chested, even flatter than our Immortal...
Fu Hua: "Achoo!"
However, Ling Xi didn't want to refuse Ein, who had come to her of her own accord.
Although this girl is a bit plain, she is quite pretty if you look closely. If I could really get her, I wouldn't lose out!
Moreover, Ein's own value, as well as the value of Anti-Entropy behind her, make it worthwhile for me to take her in!
After Doctor Future and the others awaken, Ein and Tesla, with their abilities, are absolutely capable of entering the core of power. The experiences of the Previous Era have also taught them that if power cannot be held by themselves or their own people, then...
There is always a risk of a financial crisis!
For example, after the Previous Era eliminated those parasites, its own Doctor and May jointly took power. Although the pressure of the Honkai forced them to unite in the early stages, in the end...
May and Mobius have had a falling out. Mobius is willing to listen to his own opinions, but... May is not.
Therefore, although nepotism is a derogatory term, it can maximize the guarantee that power will always be in one's own hands, which is obviously not a bad thing for those in power.
After all, even doing nothing is better than having a useless teammate who always drags you down!
But is Ein a bad teammate? Obviously not, at most she's just... a teammate who's not one of their own!
"Okay, sure!"
Finally, Ling Xi smiled and said, "However, I don't have much time lately. When I have time, I will personally go to Anti-Entropy. At that time... I will tell you some things about the Previous Era, but only some, of course."
"No problem."
Ein did not refuse. She understood that Ling Xi intended to bring her into his circle, but... before that, there might be some tests or costs involved.
However, Ein didn't regret it, because she had realized that neither Schicksal nor Anti-Entropy could possibly defeat the Honkai; only...
Only by uniting Previous Era and present civilizations can we find even the slightest possibility!
Soon, Ein left Schicksal and established a research institute in Shenzhou as Ling Xi had requested. The people Ein had promised to send to help Ling Xi manage the institute...
That's right, Ein confirms that it is indeed me!
Ling Xi immediately understood why Ein hadn't asked the research institute to share its technological achievements. Because... Ein was the manager of this research institute, and all the research was conducted under Ein nose. So... what technology was there that needed to be shared?
Ling Xi tacitly accepted this arrangement. After all, Ein already knew about the survivors of the Previous Era, and... Ling Xi also intended to bring her into his camp, so...
Ein will be one of us sooner or later!
Hope everyone's alright!. jpg
Chapter 647 Qiluo, you don't want to lose the Divine Key either, do you?
With the end of the Second Honkai War, Schicksal Anti-Entropy also negotiated, and the two sides were no longer completely opposed, but instead began to cooperate in many areas. However, this was all Otto and Old Yang's business!
Of course, Otto actually had Amber do the work, while Old Yang had Ein do it. These two were the ones who led the negotiations and signing of various cooperation projects. As for the bishop of Schicksal and the leader of Anti-Entropy...
His Holiness the Bishop is preparing to develop a new Kallen Fantasy, while the Anti-Entropy Leader is also planning to develop Alahato. It seems that after the Schicksal Anti-Entropy ceased its armed confrontation, the two have found a new arena for competition...
However, Ling Xi was too lazy to pay attention to any of this. After all, Ling Xi had finally achieved her wish of a leisurely life and was living a healthier lifestyle...
By the way, after the Second Herrscher was destroyed, all four Herrscher Core were also recovered by Schicksal, and Ling Xi also took the Void Archives Core and the Lightning Herrscher Core, so...
In the past two weeks, Ling Xi has grown quite a bit, and it is estimated that she will be fully recovered in about ten days!
Sirin was almost dumbfounded by this situation; the speed of development was just too outrageous!
As for Fu Hua, this girl seems a bit disappointed. It seems... she prefers her younger self to her normal self, and even said that the younger Ling Xi is more fun...
Ling Xi: "??? Hello, is this the police station? I want to report someone..."
"Hey, Qiluo, can you give me back the Divine Key?"
A week later, at home, Ling Xi looked at Shigure Kira with some helplessness. Ever since she lent the Divine Key to this girl last time, she hadn't said a word about returning it.
"Hey... hehe, um, Ling Xi."
Shigure Kira chuckled and said, "Look, as S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate if I didn't have a Divine Key to show off?"
"Doesn't Otto have the Black Abyss White Flower?"
Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "Why don't you apply for the Black Abyss White Flower as an S-rank Valkyrie? Besides, isn't Cecilia the person you admire most? Don't you want to use Cecilia's weapon?"
"Ugh... No, no."
Shigure Kira shook her head. "The Black Abyss White Flower is not suitable for me. I feel that the Seven Thunders of Retribution are more useful. I can now master the use of three of its forms. I estimate that it won't be long before we can master the remaining four forms."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't treat the Seven Thunders of Retribution as your own."
Ling Xi couldn't help but complain, judging from this girl's expression, it seemed she really didn't intend to pay it back.
"Hey-hey..."
Shigure Kira just chuckled, then suddenly said, "Then... why didn't you let Cheng Lixue pay it back first? Cheng Lixue borrowed it from you too, right? Why didn't you let her pay it back first, but made me pay it back? Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
"Cough cough..."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Lixue, who had been watching the scene unfold, coughed. Although she didn't really want to repay it, her upright character made it impossible for her to do such a thing, so...
"I never said I wouldn't pay it back."
Cheng Lixue said decisively, "But don't forget that you borrowed the Divine Key first, Shigure Kira, so... logically you should return it first. Anyway, you return it first, and I'll return it after you do."
"You..."
Shigure Kira almost retorted, but then seemed to realize something and said, "I don't believe it. Unless you pay me back first, I'll pay you back later. Anyway... I absolutely won't pay you back first!"
"Then I won't go first!"
Cheng Lixue also gave her answer decisively.
"Hmph, then I won't pay it back!"
"I won't pay it back!"
"Alright then, don't pay them back!"
"Fine, I won't pay you back. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Ling Xi: "???" Wait, why do I feel like I've been tricked...?
"Oh right, Ling Xi, my Snow Pear Squad has training today, so I'm going to train now, bye-bye!"
After saying that, Cheng Lixue decisively slipped away...
"My squad too..."
Shigure Kira seems to be planning to follow suit!
"Sit down!"
Ling Xi grabbed Shigure Kira's wrist and made her return to the sofa.
"Hmm..."
When Ling Xi grabbed her wrist, Shigure Kira showed a hint of embarrassment, but she didn't struggle.
"What, you still want me to pay it back?"
Shigure Kira Luo pouted, looking at Ling Xi with a somewhat aggrieved expression. Although... this wasn't her personality, but... for the sake of the Divine Key, did her character design even matter?
Ling Xi "..."
"Alright, alright!"
Ling Xi rubbed her forehead helplessly and laughed, "I won't make you pay it back, okay? Chat with me for a while."
"Okay, okay, it's a deal then, you're not allowed to ask me for the Divine Key again!"
Shigure Kira nodded happily. As long as the Divine Key, they could talk about anything, even sizes!
"I won't ask you to pay me back for now."
Ling Xi smiled. Although she didn't intend to take back the Divine Key, she knew that it would definitely be used again once the Doctor and the others woke up.
Shigure Kira "..."
"Hmph... Chat over, I don't know you..."
Shigure Kira's expression immediately returned to its coldness...
"You're way too materialistic..."
Ling Xi couldn't help but complain, "These days, everyone is so realistic. Only the Doctor and Aponia's compassion can soothe my soul. The Fairy and Sister Eden are barely acceptable, but unfortunately..."
Now, the only person I have by my side is an approachable Immortal.
"Hmph, serves you right for always bullying me..."
Shigure Kira pursed her lips, though it was completely fake, but... it was very effective!
"Really? Then I'll..."
Ling Xi hugged Shigure Kira tightly and laughed, "Try bullying you a little more..."
"Ugh..."
Ling Xi's sudden move left Shigure Kira somewhat at a loss.
"Qiluo..."
