Chapter 188
I feel a strange sense of sympathy for the Aristocratic Faction. To be honest, it really wasn't her fault.
213. I really want to do a cross-section survey!
The new Titan Mech piloted by the Valkyrie can be considered the first experimental project after Schicksal and Anti-Entropy collaborated.
With the enhancement of the Type-B Stigmata, the Valkyrie gained extremely strong Honkai Energy control. However, the weakness of the Titan Mech, which possesses extremely strong firepower but lacks Honkai Energy control, is that it cannot resist the Honkai Energy control of the Honkai Beast in Honkai Beast.
Due to the Honkai Energy manipulation power of the Honkai Beast, the Honkai Energy inside the Titan Mech will accelerate the erosion of the Titan Mech. Even though the Titan Mech is made of Týr Alloy, which can block Honkai Energy, it does not mean that it can be permanently protected from the erosion of Honkai Energy.
Just like Honkai Energy antibodies, Týr Alloy can resist the erosion of Honkai Energy, but that does not mean it is immune to the erosion of Honkai Energy.
Cocolia plans to upgrade the Honkai Energy antibody to the immune level.
This allows children with Honkai Energy to Honkai to survive future Great Honkai.
The Type-B Valkyrie, who has gained the Honkai Energy control Honkai energy, can use her own Honkai Energy control to fight against the Honkai Energy control of Honkai Beast, thereby making up for the weaknesses of Titan Mech. It is for this reason that Anti-Entropy, which has always insisted on using unmanned mechs, made a compromise.
It can be said that the combination of the new Titan Mech and the new Valkyrie is an important combat force for Schicksal and Anti- fight against Honkai the Anti-Entropy.
With only twenty test machines available at the moment, the number of pilot slots is extremely valuable.
The Aristocratic Faction even racked their brains to obtain pilot slots, and even offered several Aristocratic Faction who had the Honkai Energy Valkyrie but were not equipped with Type-B Stigmata.
These Valkyrie are mostly survivors of the Honkai 3rd.
Subsequent investigations revealed that several Valkyrie provided by the Aristocratic Faction were also survivors of the Second Eruption War.
Although this result was not unexpected.
The three major organizations, Schicksal, Anti-Entropy, and World Serpent, have all made moves, and no country can afford to let go of such a valuable experimental subject.
Although Freya was very unhappy with the Aristocratic Faction's actions, they eventually exchanged valuable resources for three pilot slots from her.
The Assault Team and Lewis Squad, who had seventeen slots, disliked the number of pilots and each gave up two slots to the Commoner Faction had just acquired four Type-B Valkyrie.
Although it may seem as if Freya is balancing the two factions of the Valkyrie, she actually hasn't done anything; it's just that the Assault Team and Lewis's squad are giving her too much trouble.
Freya sympathized with the Aristocratic Faction who had gone to great lengths to secure a spot but failed, and wanted to assure them that she wasn't really targeting them.
I had lunch with Rita for two hours, during which we talked about our real names and the pilots of the new Titan Mech.
Rita glanced at the time and asked Freya about her next plans.
When questioned, Freya confessed that she would be investigating Nagoya City next. In order to increase the chances of winning the month-long extermination operation, she needed to know the number of Honkai Beast in Nagoya City in advance.
"Sir, it's too dangerous..."
"No problem, I've tested it a few times. As long as I don't actively show hostility, the Honkai Beast won't attack me."
"Really? That's hard to believe."
Even Rita was surprised by this.
Honkai Beast are naturally hostile to humans, and they will not stop targeting humans just because humans possess the power of Honkai.
When the number of Honkai Beast in a region reaches a certain level, they will launch a joint attack on human cities. As the Valkyrie confront the Honkai Beast, the land is continuously polluted by Honkai Energy, and the place where the Valkyrie and Honkai Beast fight is also known as the Honkai Battlefield.
Honkai Beast are more hostile to humans who possess Honkai power, so when they attack the Honkai battlefield, Valkyrie will first target humans who possess Honkai power... namely Honkai Beast.
Rita could never imagine the scene Freya was describing.
"It's true. The Honkai Beast are not hostile to me. In other words, as long as I don't attack the Honkai Beast, I won't be attacked by them."
Freya wanted to test the new armor of the Covert Mobile Force, but her special treatment made it impossible for her to test its performance.
"..."
At this point, Rita began to look at Freya with suspicion.
If you were to say that the person receiving such special treatment wasn't the Honkai, probably no one would believe it.
However, Rita quickly dismissed her suspicions, thinking that Freya's unusual characteristics were probably the work of Grand Bishop of Schicksal Otto Apocalypse.
As Freya appointed Rita as the captain of the Schicksal intelligence unit, Rita naturally had access to information that ordinary Valkyrie could not access.
Of course, Rita now strongly suspects that some of the clues she has come across since taking over as captain of the intelligence unit were deliberately shown to her by Freya.
Although Rita is only 13 years old and her words and actions still carry a hint of immaturity, she knows that Freya's stance is not on the side of the Honkai.
"In that case, sir, you must be careful."
Knowing she couldn't accompany her, Rita changed her mind.
"Understood, don't worry too much..."
Freya nodded and said.
"Investigating the number of Honkai Beast is indeed beneficial for subsequent operations."
"You can find many excuses if you want, and I certainly can't convince you. Even if I personally think you shouldn't take the risk, you must be ready now."
Rita sighed with a hint of melancholy.
The helplessness of not being able to help Freya left her feeling extremely frustrated.
"I'll be back as soon as possible. Oh, and if Mr. Welt or Theresa need to come, I'll have to Rita to stall for time."
Freya earnestly pleaded with Rita.
Rita nodded slightly.
"Thank you, Rita, it's so good to have your support." Freya, of course, didn't hold back her praise.
Freya probably didn't expect her praise to have such a remarkable effect on Rita.
Rita's cheeks flushed even more, and she looked somewhat flustered.
Faced with Freya's pure smile and straightforward gaze, Rita, who loved taking care of and cherishing young girls, almost collapsed while Freya thanked her.
After saying goodbye to Rita, Freya quickly headed towards Nagoya City.
With Freya's current physical abilities, combined with the power of the Herrscher of Wind, her flight speed instantly reached the speed of sound.
Behind Freya were enormous emerald green wings, which propelled Freya's body like thrusters.
"Indeed, it's so good to be honest with someone you trust..."
Not long after leaving, Freya, who was controlling the power of the Herrscher of Wind to fly forward, breathed a sigh of relief.
The true ability of the Herrscher of Wind is to create ideal fluids, but simply manipulating wind or airflow is easier than creating ideal fluids.
Although Freya had tried to keep a low profile, how could a flying object heading towards Nagoya City at an astonishing speed not attract attention?
When they pulled up the satellite footage, they discovered that the flying object was actually Freya, Welt and the others completely dumbfounded.
Rita's communicator was instantly destroyed by Welt and Theresa.
After all, Freya had cleverly turned off her communicator, which meant that Welt and Tesla, who couldn't contact Freya, and Theresa, who was at Schicksal Headquarters, could only contact Freya's adjutant.
Rita, the intelligence unit captain and Acting Grand Bishop's adjutant, was naturally at a loss for words.
So that's how she was supposed to stall for time.
Rita rolled her eyes, then connected the communication and explained Freya's whereabouts to Welt, Theresa, and the others.
After some time, Freya arrived in Nagoya City.
Just as imagined, the city overrun by Honkai Beast was in ruins and desolate, with large numbers of Honkai Beast coming and going in the deserted city.
Honkai Beast are monsters that are transformed from animals by Honkai Energy.
After entering the city, Freya watched as groups of Rush-class Honkai Beast passed by.
Among some Valkyrie, it is known as the Mosquito -Rush-class Honkai Beast.
The Rush-class Honkai Beast have peculiar wings and a sturdy white exoskeleton. Although they use their rapidly vibrating wings for attack, they are usually only half the height of a human.
They fly along fixed routes, like birds that patrol their homes.
"What a strange habit..."
After transforming into Honkai Beast, although some of the animal's original characteristics are retained, it will ultimately lean more towards the characteristics of Honkai Beast.
Although Honkai Beast such as Assault-type, Knight-class, Ballista-class- class, Tank-type, Temple-class- class, Floating-class, and Tidal-class are all classified as lower-tier Honkai Beast based on their morphological descriptions, it does not mean that Knight-class is stronger than Assault-type.
Honkai Beast that do not reach the Emperor-class do not have a specific name, but the limit that most lower-level Honkai Beast can reach is the Emperor Honkai.
Without the modified and enhanced Super Emperor Honkai released by Shencheng Medicine, the Emperor Honkai would probably be the limit for lower-level Honkai Beast.
However, given the precedent of the Super Emperor Honkai, this special level cannot be denied.
Freya wanted to endow the Honkai Beastman with humanity and intelligence.
In fact, Honkai Beast, as monsters mutated from wild beasts, also possess the intelligence of wild beasts and know how to avoid powerful enemies.
Shencheng Medicine's modified Honkai Beast further enhanced this feature.
"Even though they are both Rush-class Honkai Beast are Honkai Beast transformed from small flying creatures, so it is not surprising that they have some bird, eagle, or even insect habits."
In fact, even Rush-class Honkai Beast sometimes attack each other.
The size of the Rush-class Honkai Beast is not fixed. Although they are usually half a person tall, the Rush-class Honkai Beast that can fight against the original B-class or even A-rank Valkyrie have different Honkai Energy and size than the usual Rush-class Honkai Beast.
Freya continued to move slowly through Nagoya City.
Soon they saw a Rush-class Honkai Beast, radiating dazzling crimson Rush-class Honkai Beast Honkai Energy.
Although its size was no different from other Rush-class Honkai Beast, the Honkai Energy intensity was so high that it could be confirmed with the naked eye that this Rush-class Honkai Beast was clearly stronger than the others.
On the other side of this group of Rush-class Honkai Beast, facing them are Rush-class Honkai Beast that do not possess such intense Honkai Energy but are much larger in size.
It easily flapped its wings, swatting away a passing Knight-class Honkai Beast, then rested against a nearby building, its massive size completely ignoring the provocations of other Knight-class Honkai Beast.
In fact, a teacup cat the size of a palm baring its teeth at humans would not provoke any hostility from them at all.
"While it's not quite at the level of Emperor Honkai, it's very close. In the past, only the Assault Team could deal with enemies like this. I really want to dissect it and investigate it..."
Freya sighed as she looked at the over 20-meter -Rush-class Honkai Beast.
The resting Rush-class Honkai Beast suddenly shivered.
Just then, a Deadman wielding a scythe quietly approached Freya from behind.
214. It might cause problems if not handled properly.
When Freya observed the living Honkai Beast up close instead of choosing to kill them outright, the headquarters of the Schicksal Anti-Entropy Alliance was in a state of chaos.
Leaving aside the local government in the Far East, when Freya flew to Nagoya City using the power of the Herrscher of Wind, Welt, who noticed this, was unable to contact the person involved.
"That young lady..."
Welt scratched his head in anger, truly furious at Freya's unauthorized actions.
If we give them a heads-up beforehand, they're not against investigating Nagoya City. After all, the cleanup operation to be carried out a month later is to take Nagoya City back from the Honkai Beast. Being able to investigate the situation in Nagoya City before the operation will definitely help us in the subsequent operation.
The Far Eastern government is now completely bewildered.
After all, how could the Far Eastern government not panic when the Acting Grand Bishop of Schicksal went to Nagoya City, which was full of Honkai Beast, all by himself? Even if the Far Eastern government knew Freya's strength, what if something unexpected happened and the Acting Grand Bishop of Schicksal was gone in Nagoya City?
The Far Eastern government felt they couldn't bear the blame.
That is why the Far Eastern government has been constantly contacting its frontline headquarters.
Since Welt and his group couldn't contact Freya, they could only keep trying to reach Freya's adjutant.
"So, Kiana went to investigate Nagoya City on her own?"
Theresa was completely dazed when she arrived at the front-line headquarters.
"Yes, our Acting Grand Bishop went to Nagoya City alone to conduct an investigation."
Welt smiled wryly.
Of course, not everyone doubted Freya's abilities.
On the contrary, everyone thought that Freya might be able to wipe out Honkai Beast in that city all by herself.
Compared to the Golden City deep in the Sahara Desert and the forests inhabited by a large number of Honkai Beast that have gathered on the Siberian Plains in recent years, Nagoya City in the Far East can only be considered a small-scale Honkai Beast gathering place.
"Does Kiana have a deeper meaning in doing this?"
Theresa, feeling confused about the other person's thoughts, asked.
Welt shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
