Chapter 370
For Otto in the parallel world, the mere existence of a false code is already a code in itself.
Faced with Freya's speculation, Otto calmly put the black evening dress in his hand into the laundry basket and replied.
"... Just as you guessed, I did indeed have some guesses about the content of the code."
Seeing Freya's calm expression, Otto continued.
"Perhaps there are real codes hidden in the patterns and symbols on this evening gown, but to me, the fact that there are codes on it is a code in itself."
"Hmph~~ A special code for sending messages to my parallel world self? No wonder it was that bastard bishop who came up with this code."
But soon, Freya stared speechlessly at the ceiling of the changing room. She suddenly realized that deciphering this code was quite difficult for beginners.
First of all, you can't be too naive when you meet your Otto.
This idiot Otto simply doesn't know how to design codes, so naturally there's no need for codes.
Otto, who isn't naive, is definitely not a good person; at this point, he also needs to have extremely strong survival skills.
Those that are killed by Freya's slap and cannot create thirty more clones are basically out of the game; they all belong to the type with low survivability.
Incidentally, a guy codenamed Gray Serpent has such a strong survival ability.
That being said, Freya has almost wiped out all his clones. Now, he is basically holed up in the World Serpent's base and suffers from severe Freya phobia syndrome.
If neither of these two conditions is met, then it's definitely not related to the code on the clothes.
Those who aren't smart enough won't be able to decipher the code, and those who aren't good at hiding won't find it useful even if they do.
Otto who meets these two conditions must have already begun to involve the concepts of parallel worlds, the Sea of Quantum, and the Imaginary Tree. Only Otto who meets these conditions is the kind of person that Otto from Freya's original world wants to win over.
"... That bastard, he really did play dead and hide."
The Twilight Knight armor, now put back into the laundry basket, was originally intended for Theresa, who was only the size of a young girl. Freya could wear it a few years ago, but after a few years, the size had to be increased, especially after Freya's appearance age reached 14 years old, and she had grown considerably in all aspects.
After all, she has good food and a good environment, and she has inherited excellent genes. Even if she doesn't have the same prominent bust as Rita did when she was 14, her future potential is still quite huge. After all, among the three sisters, her bust size is not the smallest.
Even if we don't talk about two cups of milk tea, we can still handle putting a cup of milk tea on it, which just goes to show that Cecilia's mother has excellent genes.
Getting back to the point, Freya has grown significantly in all aspects, not just in height, so she can no longer wear her original size. Therefore, her Twilight Knight armor has been modified every year to increase its size, and the most recent modification was two or three months ago.
Freya had already identified the suspects who could have done the trick during that period when she analyzed the situation.
The fact that Amber and A-374, whom Freya had identified as suspects, would tamper with the Twilight Knight armor in this way can only be explained by the fact that they were either acting on Otto's orders or being manipulated by Otto.
Freya didn't believe that Otto could predict her future battles and strategies without real-time intelligence, which proved that Otto was quite active in the shadows—he had obviously stolen a lot of intelligence from the Alliance.
After silently complaining about Otto, Freya actually felt somewhat relieved.
Freya's biggest worry was that Otto was hiding in the shadows and not taking any action. But if he did take any action, he would definitely leave behind indelible traces.
"It's a pity I can't go back right now. Aurora is definitely no match for him. Fortunately, Welt and Tesla are still here. Even if Otto and Kevin join forces, they can't destroy the alliance in a short time. Aurora should be fine. The key is Kiana..."
Of course, Freya believed that entrusting Aurora to Welt and Tesla was the wisest decision she had ever made. Not only did her youngest sister receive the happy life that she and Kiana hoped for, but the two of them were also extremely outstanding as protectors.
On the contrary, it was Kiana Kaslana, who was in the World Serpent Organization, who made Freya worry about her safety. After all, Kevin from the original world, even though he had given up the original Stigmata Activation Plan, was still an extreme madman.
After Otto answered truthfully, Freya only thought for two or three seconds to understand the situation before speaking.
"The presence of a code on the clothes is itself a code. So, is the content of this code meant to establish contact with a parallel world version of myself?"
"... Yes, now that things have come to this, there's no need for me to keep it a secret any longer. In the several scenarios I've envisioned, if this code isn't needed, then I'll just pretend it never happened. But if someone can go to the parallel world in my place, then I must pass this information on to my counterpart in that parallel world."
After giving a nonchalant reply, Otto suddenly burst into laughter.
"Of course, I might be the only 'Otto' with this idea. Perhaps the 'Otto' who left the code on your clothes did so to unite the power of parallel worlds. That's right, if we unite the power of parallel worlds, we will definitely be able to defeat the Honkai."
Freya scoffed when she saw Otto suddenly give a serious answer.
Kind-hearted Otto do exist, but they are certainly rare.
The probability of drawing an SSR is probably even lower than in a gacha pool with no pity system and a true probability.
Although Freya had only met two Otto, she felt that these two Otto were not special cases, or particularly rare examples.
This is like drawing two SSR cards in a row in a gacha pool with no pity system and true probability.
"... Do you even believe what you yourself said?"
Freya replied with a mocking expression.
In fact, even Otto himself didn't believe his own words.
If it weren't for such a scoundrel's personality, then 'Otto' wouldn't have been able to live for over five hundred years.
Otto, who has lived from five hundred years ago to the present, has become a bastard even if he wasn't one, for different reasons.
"Of course I believe it."
However, Otto answered without changing his expression.
Otto's answer was clearly even more shameless than Freya had imagined.
Freya thought she had underestimated Otto's shamelessness enough, but she didn't expect that she had overestimated it.
That being said, such an answer is consistent with Otto's jerk personality.
"Anyone who doesn't know you would think you're some upright and honorable person, but in reality, you not only dress as a woman, but you also sneak into the changing room of the Valkyrie Bathhouse and steal the clothes of a girl who is actually only about seven years old... You're simply an unprecedented cross-dressing lolita-loving lingerie pervert."
Freya said in a sarcastic tone.
"Don't put it so harshly. Besides, wasn't it you who set this trap for me?"
Although Otto, dressed as a Valkyrie, felt he had no right to argue, he had actually been tricked.
While pleased, Otto also felt a bit helpless, he said.
"In any case, I did not lie. Uniting the forces of parallel worlds can indeed defeat the Honkai."
Freya nodded slightly after listening, agreeing with Otto's statement.
In reality, even if she were allowed to unleash her full potential in a parallel world, Freya felt that her chances of defeating the Herrscher of Finality slim.
After all, she only possessed a portion of the power of the Herrscher of Finality, and only one-third of it; the rest was held by her two sisters.
Even with the combined power of the three sisters, they can only form an incomplete Herrscher of Finality. How can they possibly fight against the true Herrscher of Finality?
Of course, Freya herself is not a pure Herrscher of Finality. Her body possesses the DNA of the strongest Herrscher of the Void in the current civilization era. After gaining the power of the Herrscher of the Void through the DNA, she also indirectly gained the power of four Herrscher: Fire, Wind, Lightning, and Death. Her consciousness and soul inherited some of the Herrscher of Consciousness abilities left behind by her Previous Civilization.
However, even with all these conditions, including her backup body as the Herrscher of Finality and her mastery of the powers of other Herrscher the Sequence and non-Sequence, she still didn't think she could be stronger than the Herrscher of Finality.
After all, even someone like her couldn't say she was guaranteed to defeat Kevin. Even though Kevin had become stronger than he was in the Previous Era, Kevin was helpless against the Herrscher of Finality in the War of Finality of the Previous Era. In the end, he had to rely on the rampage of the Moonlight Throne to successfully stop the Herrscher of Finality from moving for a period of time.
In SU's terms, if you want to change the established facts, that is, the predetermined world line, then you must use a huge external force to change it.
Whether they are pioneers from Previous Civilization or transmigrators from a parallel world, they all meet this condition.
For Freya, her arrival in the parallel world to showcase her skills was, in a way, an interference with the original timeline of this parallel world in the form of external force.
Although Freya didn't know how this world originally developed, whether Sky City still existed, or whether the three major organizations would join forces to fight against the Herrscher of Finality in the future... right now, Sky City was directly wiped out by Freya, and after exposing the underground base of Shencheng Medicine, she pushed the World Serpent Organization of this world into an irrecoverable situation once again.
A month after the destruction of Sky City, Freya, who spread the Mind Plague and Meme Attack, launched a surprise attack on the World Serpent's base. Taking advantage of the fact that Kevin in this world had not yet recovered his strength, she froze him and all the World Serpent members in the base.
Then, before the Schicksal could react, they launched a surprise attack on the Schicksal Headquarters and successfully hacked into its system, thus bringing the Schicksal Headquarters under their control.
From a certain perspective, Freya's influence on this parallel world has been enormous enough to directly change the original situation of the three major organizations.
As for the countries and people suffering from both the Mind Plague and the Meme Attack, they have lost the power to resist Freya.
Of course, Freya has been monitoring the movements of several nuclear-armed nations in real time to prevent a situation from deteriorating and dragging the entire world down with them.
Frankly, humanity has an astonishing talent for destroying itself.
Among the several destructive endings SU showed her, many involved humans destroying themselves, rendering the Herrscher of Finality useless. Although the Honkai was behind it, if humans didn't have such tendencies, they couldn't have developed to that point.
To prevent those nuclear-armed nations from suddenly going berserk and wiping out the land with nuclear weapons, the main people affected by the Mind Plague are those working in related fields, thus preserving at least the means to stop launches in an emergency.
As for the heads of state and the ruling class of various countries, they were being manipulated by Freya one by one without any warning.
Once all of humanity is manipulated by Freya using her Herrscher of Consciousness abilities, she can concentrate the power of all humanity to directly develop technology. With billions of people working together towards a single goal, the power that erupts is absolutely beyond imagination.
From a certain perspective, the people in this parallel world have also united with their counterparts from other parallel worlds.
However.
"Your Excellency, you are right, but the person who said that is not worthy of my trust."
Freya replied coldly.
422. Freya, you're so powerful!
"I never imagined I'd find myself back on the soil of the Schicksal Headquarters..."
Although her feet were on a ground paved with some kind of metal plate, the girl couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
"... Yes, who would have thought that one day we would be walking around the Schicksal Headquarters so openly and proudly?"
Tesla smiled wryly, not forgetting how she had stormed the Schicksal Headquarters a few months ago, resulting in the Titan Mech she brought being completely destroyed by the resurrected Herrscher of the Void.
Of course, the person in question was the young girl standing next to her who was feeling sentimental.
"Kiana, what exactly did your 'older sister' do? How come she was able to make decisions for Schicksal Headquarters after only being gone for a day?"
Seeing that the girl was about to answer, Tesla quickly waved his hand and refused.
"Never mind, you don't need to answer. I know, I know everything..."
Tesla contacted the members at the Anti-Entropy base through a secret channel and learned that the Herrscher had directly defeated the strongest organization, World Serpent, and then immediately stormed the Schicksal Headquarters...
Judging from the fact that she can now issue orders in place of Otto, she has clearly seized control of the Schicksal Headquarters. Tesla and the others had very mixed feelings after learning this.
Both the World Serpent Organization and the Schicksal can be considered archenemies of the Anti-Entropy Organization.
The Anti-Entropy organization was founded because of the persecution by the Schicksal, and they were old rivals. Welt had gone to great lengths to prevent the leader of the World Serpent from escaping the Sea of Quantum, and the World Serpent organization had also planted many spies in the Anti-Entropy organization. Their enmity was a new one...
However, faced with old grudges and new hatreds, the Anti-Entropy organization was somewhat powerless.
Tesla never expected that two of Anti-Entropy's formidable enemies would be defeated by others within a single day. In particular, the person who defeated the two organizations was the same girl who had been chatting and laughing with them the day before, and whose gaze had resembled that of a strange uncle while they were bathing together in the hotel's large public bath.
Although Tesla felt he had overestimated the abilities of the Herrscher from another world, the Herrscher's abilities still exceeded his expectations.
"Kiki, your sister is really powerful..."
"Yes, Freya, you are so powerful."
The girl, who had already accepted the nickname 'Kiki,' sighed as she looked at the girl with long, purplish-black hair beside her.
In fact, although this was not their first time setting foot in the Schicksal Headquarters, they had a different purpose when they came to the Schicksal Headquarters last time.
In the end, they not only failed to achieve their goal, but also caused the sacrifice of a very respectable elder.
The moment they stepped onto the Schicksal Headquarters, both the white-haired girl at the center of a series of events and the long-haired girl with purplish-black hair who accompanied her felt even more complicated emotions...
"Headmaster... is that you?"
At that moment, they also saw young girls waiting for them at the airport.
After the Herrscher of the Void's resurrection incident, Theresa Apocalypse, who had completely broken with Otto, directly established a strategic partnership with Anti-Entropy- Entropy, the enemy of Schicksal, and was mentally prepared for a long-term confrontation with Otto.
The thought that she might never have the chance to set foot in the Schicksal Headquarters again in this life made Theresa feel sad. After all, the Schicksal Headquarters was where she grew up.
However, Theresa never dreamed that she would one day set foot in the Schicksal Headquarters again, and that it would be only a few months after she left the Schicksal Headquarters.
Even the 'reason' that led to her departure was actually a legitimate entry into the Schicksal Headquarters.
"It's me, Kiana. By the way, Schicksal... What exactly happened to Grandpa? Why is there an order to deliver the invitation in his place? Also, when will we organize a task force to subdue the Herrscher from another world? I think if we continue to let that Herrscher from another world spread the Mind Plague, the situation will be completely irreversible."
"Wait, wait a minute, little girl, didn't you see the document I sent you earlier?"
Kiki and Tesla were both stunned by the series of topics Theresa threw out.
Kiki finally snapped out of her joy at the reunion, then looked at Theresa with a strange expression. That warm and concerned gaze gave Theresa a sudden chill.
"Did I say something strange? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Upon hearing Theresa's reply, Tesla helplessly raised his hand to cover his face, and said weakly.
"You really are the mascot of the Schicksal, little girl. You should take a look at the document I sent you before. By the way, apart from that Anti-Entropy secret channel, all switches that can access the public network should be turned off. That Herrscher lady's Meme Attack is still roaming the network..."
Anyone who opens the internet today will suffer psychological attacks due to polluted keywords.
Unless one possesses strong mental resilience, it is impossible to withstand such unpredictable Meme Attack.
Once the mind is attacked, it has no ability to resist the pull of Freya's 'dream'.
