Chapter 261
Tesla's face naturally beamed with pride.
They attributed the opponent's mistakes in this top-level hacker duel to themselves.
Regardless of the process, we won anyway.
"Will quantum computers be okay?" Einstein asked.
"Oh, we need to check this out. The other party just caused some damage inside. Luckily, this quantum computer wasn't connected to the database, otherwise the database would definitely have been attacked as well. Many programs on my small terminal were destroyed."
Tesla quickly developed a self-testing program to check for any residual viruses within the quantum computer.
The red Titan Mech guards began searching for the gray snakes in a vast maze.
Although she didn't admit it, she was indeed quite lucky to win this time, as her opponent was actually superior to her in both experience and skill.
Anyway, thank you in advance.
"Do you need to be so polite with me? What kind of relationship do we have?"
Tesla rolled his eyes and replied somewhat irritably.
"Okay..."
However, Einstein emotions were not readily apparent, nodded very calmly.
Although this was the most enthusiastic attitude she could muster, it still didn't convey any genuine warmth.
"Ah, as expected, the inside is riddled with holes, tsk..."
Tesla was quite annoyed.
This time, the adversary is simultaneously defending against attacks from antivirus programs and manipulating the virus to wreak havoc inside the quantum computer.
It is clear that in terms of strength, I am slightly inferior.
Tesla, which is quite proud of its hacking skills, was somewhat taken aback.
Although the super quantum computer itself was not damaged, it was successfully prevented from intervening in the subsequent battle.
Both Freya and Einstein originally intended to use super quantum computing to hack into the World Serpent's electronic devices and terminals, and also planned to manipulate the World Serpent fleet's control system.
When the time comes, let the World Serpent's fleet charge towards the Ocean Honkai Beast. This will not only attract the Ocean Honkai Beast's attention but also destroy the World Serpent's fleet.
Unfortunately, the plan failed before it even began.
"Forget it, let's abandon this operation. I'll report to Freya first..."
Believing that Tesla would also be unable to quickly repair the super quantum computer, Einstein had no choice but to report this news to Freya.
"Okay, I understand."
On the other end of the communication line, Freya answered calmly.
It was common for operations planned before the start of a major war to fail, and Freya was not discouraged by the failures.
At least the current situation is more favorable to them.
Freya ultimately underestimated the miracles brought about by the Stigmata.
Even though the Type-B Stigmata can only draw out a portion of the power from the Stigmata, this portion of power is still strong enough for the originally weak girls to fight against Great Honkai Beasts that they could not fight in the past.
The exoskeleton armor and new Honkai Energy weapons created by the Anti-Entropy Research Department and the Schicksal Research Department have further doubled their strength.
Although casualties are inevitable in such a great battle, the Valkyrie' morale and the strength boost from their armor and weapons have exceeded Freya's initial predictions.
"There are no problems on the main battlefield. Sister Einstein, Sister Tesla, I'm counting on you two for Sea Abyss City..."
After Freya finished speaking, she felt a great sense of relief.
She was clearly using this excuse to avoid the possibility of going to Sea Abyss City, but at this moment the situation on the main battlefield was indeed very favorable.
Ultimately, the so-called main battlefield is nothing more than countless World Serpent fighter jets in the sky, countless World Serpent warships at sea... and even a large number of submarines in the sea, plus a group of ocean Honkai Beast and sky Honkai Beast wreaking havoc.
What started as a large-scale battle between the Alliance and World Serpent has turned into a three-way melee, with the Honkai Beast, due to their superior numbers, showing a tendency to overwhelm the other two sides.
However, the Honkai Beast's advantage was quickly reversed.
Many of the Type-B Valkyrie gained confidence through their victories.
As the Honkai Beast were previously invincible fell before them, the Valkyrie overcame their fear of the Honkai Beast.
Thunder roared.
Flames raged.
A thick fog blanketed the area.
Having gained confidence and boosted morale, the Type-B Valkyrie, along with the regular Valkyrie, began a sweeping advance.
Swords flashed and shadows danced, and countless shells rained down.
Led by dozens of Type-B Valkyrie, World Serpent's fleet and the Ocean Honkai Beast showed signs of defeat.
Freya was extremely satisfied with this result.
She originally intended to control the World Serpent's fleet through a super quantum computer to create opportunities for her Valkyrie, but now it seems... she underestimated her Valkyrie, who had also worked hard behind the scenes.
"Okay, leave this to us."
Einstein replied.
In fact, the guard force left behind in Sea Abyss City is quite strong.
Not to mention the Raiden Ryoma in its special armor and Welt, the Anti-Entropy Leader, the three knights appointed by Freya are all in Sea Abyss City, and Himeko has the best compatibility with the Key of Blankness and the Gem of Calamity, is the last gatekeeper.
"Einstein, Welt said they encountered World Serpent's officers."
"Understood... Freya, we have already encountered World Serpent's executives." Einstein relayed Tesla's words to Freya.
Freya, on the other end of the communication line, also wore a serious expression and murmured softly.
"Has it started... Kiana..."
The so-called World Serpent executives Siegfried and Kiana encountered Welt and Raiden Ryoma, who were stationed in the central square of Sea Abyss City.
Raven and Night Owl encountered Anti-Entropy's officers and guards on the left.
A large number of World Serpent cadres launched a fierce attack on the right-hand road, attracting two of the three knights and their Valkyrie squad.
Gray Serpent, who was at the submarine landing position, slowly turned around. Cocolia, dressed in a white military uniform, emerged from the shadows behind him and raised her gun, pointing it at his head.
"I never expected to run into a traitor like you here..."
"Calling her a traitor is too harsh. I'm just a partner to you. Oh, by the way, World Serpent does have a traitor, but unfortunately you want to kill her but can't."
Cocolia, not to be outdone, retorted with her own sarcasm in response to Gray Serpent's mockery.
Jackal, this traitor, is indeed the most hated person by all World Serpent members, yet ironically, she's doing very well after betraying World Serpent, and her life is even getting better and better—
Every second the other side lives seems to be a mockery of the fact that the World Serpent Organization is so incompetent that it can't even deal with traitors.
This is also one of the main reasons why problems have arisen within the World Serpent Organization.
As long as the Jackal remain, morale within the World Serpent Organization will easily decline, eventually leading to various contradictions and conflicts.
"Aren't you worried about the children in the orphanage since you're here?"
The voice of Gray Serpent, with a pistol pointed at his head, was completely unwavering, as if he didn't care at all about the pistol in Cocolia's hand that could blow his head off with a single shot, and his tone carried a subtle threat.
"Is this a threat? Never mind, you don't need to worry about those kids. But you did show up where I predicted."
Cocolia's presence here naturally signifies that she has ensured the children's safety.
The children from Cocolia Orphanage have now been moved to the Far East and are being cared for by their older sister Bronya and Seele.
To be honest, she didn't hate Gray Serpent, after all, both Project X-10 and the Honkai Antibody originated from the technical support provided by World Serpent.
It's just that the two sides have different positions now.
"Really? Why don't you turn around and look?"
At that moment, an individual identical to the Gray Serpent emerged from the submarine, pointing its Defender at Cocolia's back.
Unlike Cocolia, Gray Serpent pulled the trigger the very next second after aiming at Cocolia's back.
Bang!
The bullet fired from the defender's gun struck an unseen, solid object and then ricocheted to the ground.
Cocolia gave a mocking smile.
Behind her, two Titan Mech disengaged from their cloaking state.
At the same time, the Shadow Knight, one of the three knights, appeared behind another Gray Serpent.
From her appearance to the concealment of the existence of the two Titan Mech, it was all due to the Shadow Knight's Stigmata ability.
Cocolia, who was prepared, pulled the trigger, and a spinning bullet flew from the muzzle toward Gray Serpent's head. But Gray Serpent seemed to have predicted the trajectory of the bullet, so he drew a black umbrella from his waist and swung it at the bullet that was aimed at his head.
The black umbrella deflected the bullet fired by Cocolia, and the Gray Serpent immediately charged towards Cocolia. Meanwhile, the Shadow Knight on the submarine had just killed one Gray Serpent when more individuals identical to the Gray Serpent emerged from the submarine and pounced on the Shadow Knight.
Cocolia and the Shadow Knight vs. Gray Serpent and many Gray Serpent.
306. I didn't do nothing either.
At the submarine landing site, Cocolia, together with the Shadow Knight, launched an attack on the Gray Serpent.
Cocolia gripped the greatsword 'Dawn Judgment' made by Mikoyan in one hand, with two old-model Titan mechs flanking her.
Gray Serpent, the target of the attack, took a step back, then raised his two specially made double-action revolvers, Colt Defender, to block Cocolia's slash, and in the next instant, kicked Cocolia in the side.
Cocolia's Titan Mech behind her brought down its iron fist, forcing Gray Serpent's kick back. Cocolia seized the opportunity to deliver a knee strike to Gray Serpent's abdomen, and then pulled up her greatsword to slash at Gray Serpent.
The Gray Serpent, its shoulder slashed, remained silent, then raised its scratched Defender and fired two shots at Cocolia.
Cocolia rolled to the ground and landed under another Titan Mech, which used its body to block the bullets. At that moment, the Titan Mech that had previously swung its iron fist at Gray Serpent also crashed into her.
Gray Serpent felt a truck crashing into him head-on.
In 'The Complete Guide to Gray Serpent's Creative Ways of Dying,' Gray Serpent is described as being run over by a truck by a certain Grand Bishop with a smile.
The worst part was that the truck was carrying a bomb, and they didn't even spare his body.
No, it should be "finishing off".
Assuming he wasn't killed by the truck, he would have been killed by the bomb on the truck.
As for the Grand Bishop who hit people with his car, he could leisurely watch the truck explode from the driver's seat in the best position.
Although the psychological trauma did not spread, Gray Serpent's personal feelings were quite bad.
This memory was enough to cause him and his other clones to pause.
Neither Cocolia nor the Shadow Knight would miss such an opportunity.
Meanwhile, in the central square of Sea Abyss City, Welt and Ryoma had very complicated feelings.
The World Serpent executives who stormed into the central square were none other than Siegfried and Kiana.
This also proves that the two were aware of the battle instigated by the World Serpent...
Kiana, whom we haven't seen for a long time, is even more aloof, like a princess living in an ice castle, but a black flame is quietly burning deep in her blue eyes.
"Siegfried, you..."
Noticing Kiana's current state, Welt looked at Siegfried in surprise.
"You bastard!"
Ryoma, standing beside him, immediately became furious.
When Kiana left the Schicksal, she still retained a touch of childlike innocence.
But right now, all she sees is hatred.
As a father, Ryoma could not accept that Siegfried had allowed his daughter to become like this.
Siegfried also said with some reluctance.
"Ryoma, I know what you mean, and I don't want Kiana to become like this either... But, can you and Welt understand us, father and daughter?!"
Siegfried roared as he drew the Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment.
