Chapter 391
However, the Stigmata Terminal is far too important.
If Freya were to control the Stigmata Terminal, it would mean she would control everyone's Stigmata.
Although she cannot forcibly activate those Stigmata through the Stigmata Terminal, controlling the Stigmata Terminal also means that she can make the Stigmata in other people's bodies remain dormant forever, or prevent the Stigmata in everyone's bodies from being passed on through genetic factors.
"I agree. I will tell you the location of the Stigmata Terminal."
"Kevin..."
Upon hearing Kevin's decision, SU was immediately surprised and remained in shock for a long time.
"Trust her. It's just a small grudge between us. So what if she holds a grudge? In the end, she will still consider the Valkyrie."
Kevin answered very calmly.
Although Freya differs from FU in many ways, she also resembles FU in many ways.
Even though Kevin could distinguish between Freya and FU, sometimes, when he felt that sense of déjà vu, in a daze, he seemed to see that friend who valued friendship and loved to talk nonsense.
Just as FU is vengeful, he is also grateful for kindness.
He is loyal and devoted to his friends, but perhaps too loyal and devoted to them.
She can stand against humanity for Himeko, but she can also risk her life against the Herrscher to revive Himeko.
Ultimately, FU's feelings for Himeko were not love, but rather admiration and gratitude, respect and affection for his benefactor.
Of course, Kevin doesn't deny that FU likes women with large breasts and big hips.
He may have indeed intended for Himeko to become his wife, but from the time Himeko became Herrscher until she was killed, there was no substantial progress in the relationship between FU and Himeko.
All I can say is that, in order to repay a debt of gratitude, FU chose to overturn the world.
"SU, FU and Freya are all trustworthy people."
"..."
Upon hearing Kevin's reflections, SU also fell silent.
When he was testing Bianca in this world, he did not let Bianca experience what he had gone through.
However, in the new trials he set up, Bianca became extremely dependent on Freya.
Even though Freya had transformed into the Herrscher of Finality in the new trial he had set up, and brought eternal night to that trial world, Bianca still chose to believe in her.
In the world of trials, he defeated Freya with the power of the Innate Star Anchor, but did not kill her.
This is also because Freya in the trial world is far less powerful than the real Freya. If Bianca were to fight Freya while piloting the Innate Star Anchor, she would probably be completely overwhelmed by Freya in her Herrscher of Finality mode.
Of course, the restraint of power cannot be said to be absolute.
Just as water can extinguish fire, fire can also evaporate water.
Having just obtained the Innate Star Anchor, Bianca was like pool water in a swimming pool, clearly unable to extinguish Freya's raging flames that burned the primeval forest.
That being said, a trial is still a trial, and Bianca Freya the trial world bordered on blind devotion.
Kevin's answer at this moment also reminded SU that even though FU stood on the opposite side of humanity in the Previous Civilization era, Kevin and Mei still regarded him as a friend.
However, FU always distanced himself from the two of them, and every time he saw them, he would curse them and attack them with all sorts of dirty and vicious words.
Looking back now, wasn't this all to prevent the two of them from being implicated by him?
"I've known FU longer than you, I never expected this..."
SU couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh.
If he could, he really wished that the time the three of them spent at the Senba Academy could continue.
"Don't worry, both FU and Freya have a good relationship with you. They do remember kindness, but they also hold grudges. At the same time, kindness and grudges don't offset each other."
Kevin felt a pang of bitterness in his heart as he spoke.
Although SU reminisces about his time at the Senba Academy, for this academy prince, those memories weren't all pleasant.
After all, he was the complete opposite of FU in every way, and he was also a handsome foreign guy. At that time, he was also somewhat stubborn, so he often offended FU, who was a homebody and introverted, and who called the beautiful girl characters in the game "wife" every day.
Then, on the same day, Kevin was subjected to FU's retaliation, or rather, a prank. FU never held back when it came to revenge, and he never hesitated to take it. Kevin often went to the academy the next day looking disheveled to confront FU.
To outsiders, Kevin and FU might seem to have a bad relationship because they often argue, but Kevin himself knows that he has received a lot of advice from FU while pursuing Mei.
However, recalling these things, he did indeed share the same thoughts as SU.
If only those days at the Senba Academy could have continued...
447. I have the two best older sisters in the world.
However, those days at the Senba Academy will never return.
Freya quickly announced the successful conclusion of the meeting, which was composed of 'pioneers'. In fact, she thought the meeting was indeed very successful.
Not only did she obtain the location of the desired Stigmata Terminal [Alaya-Vijnana], but she also learned Kevin's current attitude.
Of course, Freya will not forgive Kevin for his past mistakes just because Kevin joined the alliance. After all, the grudge of leading her to the path of revenge is not so easy to settle.
The Biological Enhancement Technology obtained from Kevin is the highest-level version researched by Mei, but Freya does not believe that this highest-level version researched by Mei cannot be further improved.
As she has always emphasized, the Previous Civilization gave Mei too little time, forcing her to often turn her attention to making up for the disadvantages of the Fire Moth before she could shift all her attention back to the study of Honkai.
According to the information recorded in the Void Archive, Mei seems to have discovered the origin of the existence of five parallel truths, but she doesn't have much time to study these five truths. Even so, the Fusion Warrior, the Divine Key, the Key of Blankness, and the Hyper-mutation Factor that she researched did change the course of the battle.
Ultimately, Mei is severely lacking in the right environment.
Moreover, it doesn't have the same unique advantages as Freya.
Whether it's the Imaginary Tree Authority or some of the powers of the Herrscher of Finality, Freya has built a powerful military force that is not much inferior to that of the Previous Civilization. Although the Type-B Valkyrie are not as good as the top Fusion Warrior of the Previous Civilization, the number of Type-B Valkyrie far exceeds that of the Fusion Warrior.
If it took the Previous Civilization exhausting all their resources to create a near-invincible Fusion Warrior, then Freya could use the same resources to create one hundred Type-B Valkyrie.
After all, both the Honkai crystal and the synthesis of the Type-B Stigmata relied on Freya using some of the powers of the Herrscher of Finality to shape them, which is what is called getting something for free... If Mei had had a tool person who could help her refine Honkai Energy, she could have changed the fate of the Previous Civilization.
Of course, the quality of Type-B Valkyrie is not as good as that of Fusion Warrior, but the difference is not that great. There are top-tier Fusion Warrior like Kevin, and there are also Sealed Rank Valkyrie among Type-B Valkyrie who can obtain titles. It is precisely because of this that the quantity of Type-B Valkyrie can make up for the advantage brought by Fusion Warrior.
Moreover, comparing the current Alliance and the World Serpent Organization, even without considering the collapse of the World Serpent, when the World Serpent Organization was still competing with the Alliance, the leaders of the World Serpent Organization could not be compared with the Sealed Rank Knight Commanders and Valkyrie of Schicksal, and the Judges of the World Serpent Organization were far inferior to the fully armed Type-B Valkyrie.
It can be said that the current alliance is only lagging behind the Previous Civilization's Fire Moth in terms of technological level, but their military strength has already approached that of the previous civilization.
The Fire Moth possesses such military power after the birth of the Herrscher of Flames —Me proposed the Fusion Warrior plan, then created the Divine Key [Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment] for Kevin, and later added the Key of Blankness, the Hyper-mutation Factor, etc., continuously strengthening the Fire Moth's military power so that it could resist the increasingly powerful Herrscher.
Freya was satisfied with the outcome of the meeting not only because the Valkyrie she considered family were becoming stronger, but also because she herself was becoming stronger than she was now.
The difference between Fusion Warrior and Valkyrie actually stems from a difference in their level of existence.
The Valkyrie of the Schicksal era were given Honkai Antibody through a modification surgery, followed by the implantation of artificial Stigmata, thus gaining the power to fight Honkai Beast.
Fusion Warrior from the Previous Civilization era gained superhuman strength by fusing Honkai Beast into their bodies.
Although the Valkyrie's life level was elevated after the modification surgery, it was far from the improvement achieved by the Fusion Warrior.
Many Awakeners who directly awaken their Stigmata do not need to undergo modification surgery to fight Honkai Beast, but they cannot withstand firearms made by humans.
The gap between the Fusion Warrior formed by mixing with Honkai Life and the Valkyrie who obtain Honkai Antibody through modification surgery and then have artificial Stigmata implanted to enhance their power is indeed enormous.
However, this is not because Otto lacked ability.
For Otto, as long as the Valkyrie could continuously deplete the number of Honkai Beast, that was enough; he didn't care how powerful these consumables were.
The Type-B Valkyrie is simply an upgrade that gives the Valkyrie a better Honkai Antibody and allows the more stable Type-B Stigmata to draw out the power of the Stigmata within them.
Simply put, Freya's Otsuka technology has only unleashed the potential of the Valkyrie, allowing previously dormant potential to come into play.
But just as she thought, simply unleashing her potential was not enough.
Many of the Stigmata that come with Valkyrie are quite weak. With only 2-star and 3-star Stigmata at the start, even if Valkyrie has great combat talent, she will quickly reach her limit.
The Stigmata Terminal [Alaya-Vijnana] allows Freya to customize her own Stigmata. The original Type-B Stigmata used to guide the power of Stigmata will become a thing of the past, and the Key of Reason, which contains powerful Stigmata, will take its place.
Of course, if Valkyrie possesses powerful Stigmata and can wield the Key of Reason with its own powerful Stigmata, she would definitely be an important backbone of the Alliance.
But these are not enough to cause a real quantitative change.
Freya's current actions are tantamount to using every available technology and stuffing in every technology that can enhance the Valkyrie.
Just like in some pay-to-win mobile games, in addition to talents, skills, and levels, characters can also increase their combat power through various means such as strengthening equipment, embedding gems, upgrading constellations, and buying costumes.
Mei's Biological Enhancement Technology allows Valkyrie to have a higher starting point (HX).
Ultimately, Valkyrie and Fusion Warrior start from different points, with Fusion Warrior, who have a higher level of life, possessing more potential.
Therefore, the Key of Reason, which allows for customization of Stigmata, combined with Biological Enhancement Technology based on the creation of Fusion Warrior, will inevitably create a more powerful new Valkyrie.
The current alliance and the Honkai are like an arms race.
Meanwhile, the so-called Honkai Side is currently creating more and more Humanoid Honkai Beast, while the Alliance side continues to strengthen the Valkyrie in order to continue to suppress the development of Honkai.
Of course, simply improving oneself is not enough to constitute a complete arms race; disrupting the other side is a crucial part of a complete arms race.
The Key of Reason happens to have the ability to absorb Honkai Energy. By Honkai Energy for enhancement, it can strengthen itself and also create some trouble for the Honkai Side.
While Freya was busy digesting the newly acquired Biological Enhancement Technology, she was also working closely with geniuses in the Alliance, such as Tesla, Einstein, Planck, to conduct research.
The twos from the parallel world also completed their tour of the alliance base over three days.
The massive war fortress built around the entire Changkong City, along with a Space Fortress ready to be launched into the sky, and Nagoya City used as an experimental site, all broadened the horizons of these twos.
Well, the most eye-opening thing is K423 of this world, a girl named Aurora Schariac Tesla Yang, who is in charge of almost a dozen research projects and is also the assistant to Tesla, the director of the Alliance's First Research Institute.
All of this was not obtained through back channels, but through her own hard work and talent.
So much so that when Aurora led this group of twos from parallel worlds on a tour, they would occasionally glance at K423 from their own world.
Kiki:???
"It's really hard to believe you're only 14 years old..."
At this point, Otto's gaze fell on the white-haired girl who was already 19 years old in his world.
"Ah, Your Excellency, please do not speak. Even if you are the Grand Bishop of a parallel world, I still do not want to hear you say a single word."
Otto:???
Otto's expression stiffened slightly, probably not expecting to be mocked like that.
After all, he had learned about some aspects of this parallel world from Freya. Considering that his parallel self had left Schicksal early on, and that his parallel self had not done anything to harm them after Freya took power, Otto could not imagine that he had any reason to be blamed.
"Oh, please don't misunderstand. My two older sisters and I have different reasons for disliking you. Although the Grand Bishop of this world has been kind to my second sister, which sometimes troubles her, she still won't hesitate to kick someone when they're down... So, the fact that she didn't kill you directly means that you really didn't do anything to anger her."
"Since that's the case..."
"Oh, you think I would say that? Don't forget, Kiki is my second sister's adopted sister, and besides, she's me from a parallel world. In short, Your Excellency, you and we sisters have no favors between you, but rather enmity..."
"Wait a minute, this is different from what I just said."
Otto Two was speechless.
However, Aurora shrugged and said...
"That's why I said that the fact that Second Sister didn't kill you directly means that you really didn't do anything to anger her. Second Sister has already told me about the things you did in the parallel world and how she plans to handle the matter. The people involved are me and Kiki."
No one is more qualified to speak about the persecution of Otto Two than the people involved.
Freya doesn't like to meddle in other people's business. Although she does hate Otto from the parallel world, the ones who are truly qualified to take revenge on Otto are Kiki from the parallel world and Aurora, who is also a member of K423 like Kiki.
Freya entrusted Aurora with the task of being her tour guide so that she could make her own judgment.
"But don't worry, if I wanted to kill you, I would have done it long ago after hearing what my second sister said. Compared to the bastard bishop of this world, the bastard bishop of this parallel world is not worthy of our attention."
Aurora, who is an angel in everyone's eyes, did not hesitate to mock Otto.
In fact, among the sisters, the only ones who had a grudge against Otto Kiana, who had been imprisoned for many years, and Aurora, who was often put to be experimented on by Otto.
For a long time, Aurora's fear of the laboratory caused her to tremble unconsciously whenever she saw a white coat.
Otto Two was speechless with frustration. After all, it was just a little girl who was expressing her disgust so strongly, so he naturally had no intention of arguing with her.
"How to deal with you is Kiki's business, but Kiki is too weak. Even if you are handed over to her, she can't possibly defeat you."
Even after breaking Otto's limbs and handing him over to Kiki, Aurora still couldn't imagine what Kiki would do to Otto.
In fact, Otto could have resolved the crisis simply by appealing to Otto's emotions.
It can only be said that Kiki has experienced too little. Perhaps in Kiki's own eyes, she has already experienced a lot, but in Aurora's eyes, compared with the rich experiences of her sisters, this version of herself from a parallel world has always had too many people accompanying her.
These people who were with her were the ones she should have turned to when she encountered difficulties, but she insisted on getting stuck in a rut, leaving herself all alone.
