Chapter 224

Unlike the original First Herrscher, Welt Yang's copying ability has an absolute upper limit.

Even the most familiar Ninth Divine Key, the Eden Star, cannot be perfectly replicated, let alone the fact that most of the Titan Mech that Welt replicated were only 80% to 90% of the originals.

If it's Titan Mech with extremely high stability, even if it's missing one or two parts, there won't be any problems.

However, for the new Titan, which is already riddled with problems, this missing 10% or even 20% could very well cause issues.

In response to Freya's rebuttal, Welt also gave the main reason for the problems with the new Titan: the empowerment ability of the Type-B Valkyrie, whose Type-B Stigmata can draw out a portion of the power of the true Stigmata.

Most of the Stigmata that have appeared so far are of the energy attack enhancement type, with only a few examples being of the research-oriented auxiliary type.

The explosion of the new Titan is entirely due to Type-B Valkyrie's problem.

263. Whatever makes you happy.

In short, the two were deadlocked, and Tesla, as a professional, chose to remain silent as he watched the two mediocre people arguing.

She genuinely looked down on Ryoma's two new Titan models.

After a New Titan Type 1 came to a stop and sent a distress signal to the combat command center, a rescue team composed of Type-B Valkyrie began its operation.

Leading the way are Valkyrie, wielding two massive shields, and Valkyrie Laguna, carrying a super-heavy sword...

Freya suddenly felt a headache coming on.

I have a feeling that the upcoming battle scenes will have a strange impact on the 13th batch of freshmen.

Honestly, if they were to think that the weapons used by Type-B Valkyrie are all going to be huge and super-heavy... Freya is worried that the new students of the 13th class will turn into a bunch of muscular female devils.

Not everyone likes Lewis's perfect figure.

At least Freya felt that she preferred the type of girl like Rita or Himeko.

The drone filmed the stopped New Titan... and the New Titan opened the cockpit hatch, and an Aristocratic Faction Valkyrie ran out with a flushed face.

"Don't look!!"

Tesla out and covered Welt's eyes.

Those with keen eyes naturally noticed the unusual shape in the crotch area of Valkyrie's protective suit.

Freya slapped her forehead and said, "Sigh, the designers of the full-coverage anti -Honkai Energy protective suit didn't consider the situation where the wearer wouldn't be able to use the toilet for a long time."

It's normal for some Valkyrie to lose control of their bladder during intense battles. The full-coverage protective suit acts like a bodysuit when tightened, and if the user loses control, they will be locked inside the suit, which can create a very strange feeling.

"It seems like less than thirty minutes have passed since the battle started..."

"Acting Grand Bishop, don't forget that before the operation began, the pilots had already changed into protective suits. They first held a half-hour operational meeting in the operations conference room to learn the purpose of this live-fire test, including the designated locations for each New Titan Type 1, and a half-hour parade ceremony... I also remember that Lady Theresa just gave a pre-battle declaration for more than ten minutes under your arrangement."

Although Tesla covered Welt's eyes tightly, making Welt very uncomfortable, she still didn't finish Freya off.

After all, Freya had the upper hand in the argument between Freya and Welt, and had refuted Welt's claims to be worthless. Tesla naturally wanted to avenge her husband.

"Wait a minute, Theresa's pre-battle declaration was her own draft, what does it have to do with me? The parade ceremony was requested by Mr. Ryoma, it has nothing to do with me either! And... that half-hour combat meeting was in your husband's charge, and during the meeting your husband even made the drivers drink more water, afraid that they would suffer from dehydration during the flight!"

"Why???"

Tesla was dumbfounded by Freya's rebuttal; he never expected the inside story to be like this.

"Sorry, Tesla, I did make those drivers drink more water." Welt, whose face was covered, had given up resisting and could roughly guess the drivers' condition.

Based on his previous piloting experience, Welt discovered that the Valkyrie piloting the new Titan lost moisture very quickly, mainly because the high temperature in the cockpit accelerated the rate of moisture loss.

Even if Type-B Valkyrie is faced with dehydration symptoms, she will behave just like an ordinary person.

Of course, Valkyrie are physically stronger than ordinary people, especially Type-B Valkyrie, whose physical abilities have, to some extent, surpassed the limits of human beings.

Freya turned on her communicator and sent a message to Rita and Amber, who were in charge of logistics that day, asking them to prepare a clean set of clothes.

"The footage from just now probably wasn't shown to the Valkyrie and the new students."

Freya then asked Tesla, who was standing next to her.

"No, the screens on the new students' and the formation side have switched to the screens of other test machines, just like the Blue Titan which had a problem with its cooling system before. After the problem occurred, it immediately switched to the screens of other test machines."

"It was the right decision not to film every single test machine; this operation was still too rushed."

Generally speaking, manufacturing a new mech like this, requiring a pilot and various tests, would take at least half a year.

In fact, Ryoma conducted detailed tests on Type-B Valkyrie, and the current twenty experimental machines were all manufactured using data from that time.

However, the Type-B Valkyrie did not remain stagnant. With their own efforts and the help of Schicksal's researchers, they grew stronger day by day.

The main reason for the frequent problems in this combat test is, on the one hand, the lack of data on the pilots of the Titan Mech, since the Titan Mech were originally unmanned.

The so-called cockpit is actually a rescue cabin, where the wounded and survivors are housed and then transferred to a safe place.

On the one hand, the power of Type-B Valkyrie has not yet reached its limit. Based on the current strength, the height will naturally be misjudged.

In particular, the power drawn from the Stigmata can enhance energy or assist scientific research; it can be said that it has all sorts of strange abilities.

Currently, the Schicksal possesses over one hundred Type-B Valkyrie, plus Otto's secret force for Freya, totaling over three hundred people, yet they possess approximately two hundred different types of Stigmata.

Although some Stigmata may look similar, identical Stigmata are actually quite rare.

It can be said that Dr. MEI from the Previous Era was truly remarkable. The gifts she left for this civilization era allowed them to more easily face the subsequent Great Honkai.

Freya had always wondered that since the Stigmata could be inherited through DNA, the Stigmata fragments in the human body in modern times must be incomplete. Therefore, the Stigmata Project should be implemented as soon as possible, or even as soon as the warriors of the Previous Era Stigmata Project.

She didn't believe Dr. MEI hadn't considered this situation, meaning the Stigmata Project was indeed, as she suspected, a backup plan from Previous Era, a plan that had to be activated after all other plans had failed.

Ultimately, the Previous Era was being suppressed by the Herrscher of Finality. At that time, they didn't know much about the Honkai or the Herrscher, unlike the current civilization era... which starts with the opportunity to dig for treasures in the ruins of the Previous Era.

The Divine Key and scientific technologies found in the ruins have been the main reason why the current civilization has not been unilaterally crushed by the Honkai forces.

Freya always felt that Dr. MEI had considered the possibility of DNA inheritance and the gradual incompleteness of Stigmata fragments, and that each person's unique Stigmata were actually composed of incomplete Stigmata fragments.

Of course, these are ultimately just Freya's conjectures.

However, as an external Honkai crystal Circuit, the Type-B Stigmata can draw a portion of the Stigmata's power from the Valkyrie's body. Even a small portion is enough to make the Type-B Valkyrie ridiculously powerful. The new Titans created by Ryoma are like hardware that hasn't kept up.

"There are indeed many problems, but for you, it has achieved the desired effect, hasn't it?"

Although Tesla strives for perfection, as the First Advisor, she also understands the current policies of Schicksal.

Unlike the special effects-filled visuals when switching to other testing machines, the screen installed on the platform displays the status of each testing machine.

The Valkyrie who had left the cockpit squatted on the ground, her face flushed red.

As a member of the Aristocratic Faction, her background was either that of a high-ranking official or noble in some country, or the daughter of a high-ranking official in the Schicksal Mandate.

To embarrass herself on such an important day would be something that would make the Aristocratic Faction, who generally have a high sense of self-esteem, want to kill her to cover it up—but who could she possibly kill?

After hesitating for a while, the Valkyrie fixed her fierce gaze on the Honkai Beast that had not been affected by the New Titan Type 1's sweeping attack.

The Honkai Beast, bombarded by flames, ice, and lightning, have lost their courage.

They were originally transformed from wild animals, or domesticated or stray animals in the city, and the remaining animal instincts make them extremely afraid of loud things.

The few Honkai Beast that were not subjected to saturation attacks because of their small numbers did not dare to attack the Valkyrie.

Even though they lost their rationality due to the Honkai and decay, their biological instincts still compelled them to stay away from that strange red object.

"I'll take it out on you guys!"

Unaware that her scene had been cut off, the Valkyrie girl decided to vent her frustration.

With the Type-B Stigmata operating at full power, its two-star awakening rate is already capable of drawing out sufficiently powerful energy. In this environment rich in Honkai Energy, the Type-B Valkyrie, who can freely manipulate Honkai Energy, is more like a Honkai force than Honkai Beast.

Under the Valkyrie girl's forced transformation, a large amount of Honkai Energy was transformed into fireballs, ice bullets, and electric shocks that landed on the Honkai Beast.

When Laguna and Lewis arrived, they saw a young girl abusing small animals. If this had happened elsewhere, the Valkyrie girl would probably have been condemned as a heartless, animal-abusing monster.

In fact, some countries in this world do have Honkai Beast cult, and there are even Honkai Beast protection associations. Not to mention Schicksal, the largest organization against Honkai, even Anti-Entropy has received threatening letters from Honkai Beast protection associations.

"Calm down, Annie."

Lewis stepped forward to comfort her, reminding her that the Aristocratic Faction Valkyrie were very particular about looks.

"Don't worry, the footage has been cut off, no one will see you making a fool of yourself."

"Captain Lewis..."

Upon seeing the appearance of the newcomer, the Valkyrie quickly threw away a sand-iron whip.

"Impressive. How do you convert Honkai Energy into a sand whip?"

"Well, it's electromagnetic in nature. It uses the magnetic force converted from Honkai Energy to control iron sand. Its lethality against Honkai Beast is limited, but... it's really fun to use."

"Whatever makes you happy."

Lewis suspected that the Valkyrie girl in front of her had sadistic tendencies, and she had evidence and witnesses to prove it.

Lewis' teammates also showed helpless expressions. Like Laguna, they were all from commoner backgrounds and had a lot of complaints about the Aristocratic Faction.

The eccentricities of the Aristocratic Faction weren't limited to this; Lewis had seen even more outrageous ones.

264. Your family's Assault Team... hahahaha

The amplification of the Type-B Stigmata is extremely exaggerated, especially the control over Honkai Energy, which was almost exclusively an ability of the Schariac Family in the past.

Although some Valkyrie can control Honkai Energy to a certain extent, they are ultimately far inferior to the Valkyrie from the Schariac Family.

Now... any Valkyrie using the Type-B Stigmata can gain control abilities comparable to those of the Schariac Family.

Of course, the Valkyrie from the Schariac Family, after receiving the amplification from the Type-B Stigmata, have reached a terrifying level of control over Honkai Energy.

When Laguna and Lewis stormed into Nagoya City, it also meant that the practical testing of the new Titan had come to an end. Next, the Schicksal would deploy 20,000 Valkyrie to completely eliminate the Honkai Beast entrenched in Nagoya City.

However, if they encounter Deadman, they should try their best to capture them while ensuring their own survival.

Freya is very interested in the Deadman in Nagoya City, and the Deadman who came back with her are still behaving strangely.

Originally, the Deadman, like the Honkai Beast, possessed a strong urge to exterminate humanity.

However, the group of Deadman who went home with Freya chose to suppress this impulse and even completely obeyed Freya's orders.

Commanding Deadman and Honkai Beast is the privilege of Herrscher. Freya even went for a check-up, but no Herrscher Core appeared in her body, and she didn't see any Honkai Consciousness.

In response to this unusual situation, Freya chose to increase the quantity.

The 20,000-strong army advanced slowly, while Laguna and Lewis led their respective squads as the vanguard.

The rescued Valkyrie, under the cover of Laguna's team, managed to avoid the crowd and reach the logistics area, where she changed out of her strange-smelling protective suit.

As the Valkyrie forces swept into Nagoya City, the dormant Emperor-class Honkai Beast were finally awakened.

A roar that seemed to tear the air apart came from underground in Nagoya City, and an enormous Great Serpent emerged from the subway station.

"A new type of Emperor-class Honkai Beast..."

"No problem!"

As soon as Laguna finished speaking, several Assault Team, led by a woman with long, wavy apricot hair, rushed forward. The Assault Team swung their heavy swords, now even heavier, at the Great Serpent, the sound of which was like a hammer hitting a city wall.

The large white Great Serpent let out a mournful cry and then slumped to the ground with a thud.

Slightly dazed from being hit, it raised its head, shook its head, and then violently shook its body, knocking away the Valkyrie Assault Team cleaved through its solid shell.

The heavy swords used by the Assault Team have no edge; they are characterized only by their sturdiness and weight.

It's common for them to deliver a blunt weapon-like blow; the Assault Team was originally a specialized combat squad designed specifically to deal with antibody-type Great Honkai Beasts.

With the enhancement of the Type-B Stigmata, its combat power will only become more outrageous.

"Ten times the Gravity Sword!"

Thump!

The battering ram-like blow slammed into Great Serpent white Great Serpent, leaving cracks everywhere where it was struck.

The Great Serpent, which lay dormant underground, resembled a subway train with a dozen or so carriages, but it looked quite disheveled when surrounded by more than twenty members of the Assault Team.

"Twelve times the Gravity Sword!"

With a downward slash of apricot-colored wavy hair, the white Great Serpent's chin was severely injured. The impact traveled through the bones to the brain, causing a shock to the white Great Serpent's brain.

The super-heavy sword, which already weighed around 100 kilograms, could easily unleash attacks weighing several tons under the gravity amplification caused by the forced conversion of Honkai Energy... Of course, such heavy attacks also placed a great burden on the members of the Assault Team.

Although gravity is only applied at the moment of attack, the inertia of the attack is still terrifying, and only a few elites can truly control that weight.

Laguna leaped high into the air and swung his super-heavy sword down at the white Great Serpent's swaying head.

Facing the snake's head, which was as big as a train engine, she smiled and gripped the super-heavy sword in her hand tightly. She aimed the sword at the target and converted all the Honkai Energy she could control into gravity. At this moment, she didn't need to control the limits of weight at all.
