Chapter 430
Tesla, who was looking at the experimental report on the screen, turned his head to look at her, then turned his head back, and said in a rather impatient tone.
"Hehe, it's me, Sister Tesla, I'm here to apologize..."
"If it's just an apology for those Valkyrie put sacks on me, then fine. I've built a powerful sack-putting mech! I can get my revenge in a few days."
Tesla, wearing a white lab coat, waved his hand, stopping her from saying what she was about to say.
Freya shrugged, not taking it too seriously. Given Tesla's magnanimity, he wouldn't hold a grudge against some young girls.
Both Rita and Freya can find out who put the sacks on Tesla.
The same applies to Tesla.
Older Valkyrie are more likely to accept this, since they know what kind of treatment the Valkyrie during the Schicksal era, and whose doting they were given their excessive privileges.
Although the younger generation of Valkyrie understands that reducing privileges is for the good of the whole system, they are ultimately young and impetuous.
Freya wanted to apologize on behalf of the little guys, but judging from Tesla's reaction, she didn't resent them. She just created a sack-covered mech to retaliate.
Yes, good personality.
"In that case, I won't make excuses for those kids. Is the burlap sack mech that Sister Tesla made really strong? Can it be used as a training robot?"
Freya smiled and didn't say anything about children being ignorant. Instead, she became interested in the sack-covered mech that Tesla had made.
Tesla turned his head, rolled his eyes at her, and said directly.
"Stop with the nonsense and get down to business. By the way, you seem to want to speed up the construction of the lunar base. Is there some problem?"
For the past few days, Freya and Tesla have remained among those who have been forced to work.
The Alliance had an inexplicably large amount of work at the New Year, and some of the tasks involved a group of Valkyrie causing a disturbance by getting drunk.
Normally, when someone gets drunk and acts out, it's fine as long as they follow the rules. However, the matters that end up on Theresa's desk naturally have their special aspects. For example, the Valkyrie leads the drunken rampage is a Seven Archons and also serves as the vice-principal of the St. Freya Academy.
When Freya learned about this, she even wanted Laguna to leave the group.
As her status and power grew, she found it increasingly difficult to find a boyfriend, resulting in her getting drunk with her team and causing a scene.
Embarrassing.
Not to mention that most Valkyrie would rather find a woman who can fight alongside them and even be entrusted with their backs than a man.
Besides, given Laguna's current status, she could easily keep a lover secretly, since there are no regulations in the League that apply to Valkyrie in this regard.
Freya had been troubled by similar trivial matters these past few days, also casually mentioned speeding up the construction of the lunar base while dealing with these affairs.
Ryoma almost cried after Freya urged him from afar.
After all, there are still many problems to be solved in actually launching the Space Fortress into geostationary orbit and building the Space Elevator. Even though the construction of the lunar base has begun, the environment on the moon is far more harsh than imagined.
Most importantly, there are large areas of buildings on the far side of the moon shrouded in massive amounts of Honkai Energy.
In Freya's vision, the lunar base should be built on the far side of the moon, alongside the vast array of Previous Civilization buildings.
She ultimately underestimated the massive amount of Honkai Energy enveloping the building. Whether building a base on the far side of the moon or on the near side, it would inevitably be affected by that massive amount of Honkai Energy.
Tesla was Freya why Freya was urging Ryoma. Although Ryoma had slowed down the construction of the Space Fortress by several years, it did not affect the Alliance's overall plan. The construction plan for the lunar base could make up for the progress he had lost if it was completed within the next two years.
However, judging from Freya's current attitude, it seems that she wants to complete the construction plan of the lunar base this year... or even within six months.
Freya was surprised that Tesla was unaware of this. While she was urging Ryoma to speed up the construction plan, the other Seven Archons already knew about the new Honkai disease. Freya did not conceal this information.
However, she quickly realized that Tesla was not one of the Seven Archons at the moment. Although it had the same authority as the ruling powers, she was more concerned with the new scientific and technological breakthroughs that were constantly emerging within the alliance.
Freya briefly explained the situation of the new Honkai disease, and Tesla's expression became very serious as she described the characteristics of the new Honkai disease.
As a researcher, Tesla may not understand the problems caused by the new Honkai disease immediately, but she can definitely understand the essence of how being infected with the new Honkai disease Honkai Energy her to unleash various great powers by driving Honkai energy like Valkyrie.
Especially after the 'Order Stone' successfully converted Honkai Energy into so-called 'Order Energy', she understood even more what this new Honkai disease meant.
Subsequently, she re-examined the matter from the perspective of a former governor and naturally discovered other problems.
"I see. The new Honkai disease will probably be used by various countries to smear China. I remember Jackal submitted a report yesterday about the recent decline in the efficacy of treatment and preventative drugs. This will also be used by various countries. But what does this have to do with urging Ryoma to speed up the construction of the lunar base?"
"Well, to put it simply, Honkai adds new symptoms to Honkai Sickness. Whether it's beneficial or harmful, it's just to exacerbate the conflicts between the parties, and I don't intend to waste this time with any country."
Freya bluntly stated her attitude. "I'm moving, you can do whatever you want."
Tesla nodded slightly, roughly understanding Freya's thoughts, and couldn't help but smile wryly.
Theresa and Welt will not agree.
Unlike Freya, who gave up on saving humanity out of disappointment, Theresa and Welt still believed in humanity, or rather, in their eyes, not all humans were unworthy of saving.
Theresa and Welt couldn't bring themselves to abandon those who deserved to be saved simply because those who didn't.
Freya knew, of course, that not all humans were unworthy of being saved; it was just that so-called human nature was not suitable for testing.
Over the years, the alliance's welfare organizations have taken in many orphans and widows from various places. She originally wanted to bring these helpless and weak people back to Changkong City, but after observation, she found that many of the orphans and widows taken in by those welfare organizations were fraudsters.
The alliance's welfare agencies not only provide free benefits, including medical care, but most of the so-called widows are just using the name of mothers to scam food and drink. As for the orphans, apart from a small number who are real orphans, most of the rest are rascals who came with their mothers.
Freya maintained welfare institutions in various places to save children and widows who were orphaned and destitute due to the Honkai incident, but she never expected that her kindness would attract a group of despicable people.
Too many innocent people have suffered because of the Honkai Impact 3rd. Most of the Valkyrie she favored came from such backgrounds. Even Rita, who had been by her side for several years, was also a victim of the Honkai 3rd.
Compared to the rulers who stand on opposite sides due to political stances or conflicts of interest, it is these despicable practices from the lower classes that chill Freya's heart the most.
She does not deny the brilliance of humanity, but she also does not ignore the filth within it.
If Freya were alone, she wouldn't really care even if she were hurt. She wouldn't resist doing good deeds within her power; that's just her nature.
However, Freya is not alone. Not only does she lack the power to change the world, but she also has to carefully protect the 'young birds' she is guarding.
Between the vital 'young birds' and the innocent strangers, Freya withdrew her helping hand, letting her heart grow cold.
She knew she was wrong, but between the people she wanted to protect and those strangers, she abandoned them without hesitation.
Freya was not surprised that Theresa and Welt held opposing views.
Welt, in particular, had been deceived many times, yet he still chose to trust others.
Freya sighed slightly. She knew she could never persuade either of them, as both Theresa and Welt were quite stubborn.
In particular, Welt's personality is just like the savior-type protagonist described in some stories. Freya dares to pat her big, soft breasts and guarantee that if she dares to mention abandoning humanity on Earth to Welt will definitely argue with her.
"Actually, I don't think there's anything wrong with it..."
"Sister Tesla, I, and those Valkyrie, are already beings different from humans on Earth..."
It's pointless to try to persuade Theresa and Welt; the only option left is to make a decision based on majority rule. However, persuading the other Seven Archons alone isn't enough, so Freya naturally turned her attention to persuading the others who have governorship authority.
Some rationalists, including Ryoma, would not reject Freya's proposal.
As for Freya, she really didn't want to get into any internal strife with the human forces on Earth. Besides, the research on the Sea of Quantum and the Imaginary Tree was currently at a dead end. Freya preferred to concentrate her efforts on researching the two rather than searching for some hidden ruler. She didn't even intend to look for Bishop Otto.
Even if Bishop Otto continues to hide, he will inevitably cause them even greater trouble when he reappears, but Freya still gives up on finding Bishop Otto.
Her attention is really not on Earth right now.
With SU's help, they have completed a stable quantum channel, although the channel has a limited capacity, allowing only one person to be transmitted at a time, and the transmission requires a large amount of energy and takes anywhere from one day to one month.
But it also completely realizes the connection between this world and parallel worlds.
At the same time, SU is also locked into another parallel world.
Those Twos from parallel worlds, except for Kiki and Mei Two, have basically all returned. Freya also handed over control of the dream world to Kevin Two, which is essentially returning ownership of that world to the people of that world.
In an attempt to persuade Tesla, who seemed the easiest to convince, Freya continued.
"You should know what state the Valkyrie are in now. Reproductive isolation has developed between normal humans and Valkyrie..."
Although this isolation is caused by the Valkyrie' excessively high level of life, they can still reproduce by using artificial insemination or other methods to cultivate offspring, and the Alliance also possesses the technology to enable Valkyrie to reproduce with Valkyrie other.
To address the reality that yuri couples are wonderful but unable to have children, many Valkyrie in research departments have worked tirelessly. Now, with increasingly advanced technology, even Rita wants to use it to have a child with Freya. It can be said that modern technology has made it possible for yuri couples to have children.
Therefore, it's not that normal humans and Valkyrie can't have children; it's just that, due to the difference in their life levels, the so-called ancestral DNA would be directly decomposed by the Honkai Energy within the Valkyrie's body during conventional reproduction.
If a union between a man and a woman were to be desired, Fusion Warrior, who are predominantly male, would be a good match. However, after the research-oriented Valkyrie perfected this technology, men were no longer a consideration for most Valkyrie.
Freya mentioned reproductive isolation as secondary. As she said, Valkyrie, Fusion Warrior, and even Tesla himself, who used the Yomotsu Hekitsuhime Antibody, are completely different from humans on Earth.
Moreover, Tesla herself had suffered a fatal injury, and under the treatment of the Schicksal strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal, Leanna Brigantia, her genes had been distorted by the Black Abyss White Flower.
Whether it's her ageless appearance, where she looks like she's forever 18, or the near-zero loss of telomeres in her cells, it all indicates that she is different from normal humans.
In reality, it would be difficult for her and Welt to have children because Welt is Herrscher, but he is also an incomplete Herrscher. Although his body still retains human characteristics, it is also subject to the erosion of Honkai Energy.
The Valkyrie and researchers in the research department who study artificial reproduction technology are actually trying to solve the problem of how a 'perfect human' like Tesla and a 'patient' like Welt who is Honkai Energy have a child.
In the process, the issue of two women having a child was resolved.
Getting back to the main point, while having children is indeed important, the most crucial issue is the future of the Valkyrie, which will inevitably become increasingly different from that of humanity.
Even the Herrscher-style Valkyrie, who are based on the Yomotsu Hekitsuhime Antibody and use Valkyrie modification technology and the technology of incorporating Honkai Beast DNA into Fusion Warrior, may have Honkai Beast -like features, such as cat ears, wings, horns, etc., making them even less like humans on Earth.
500. That is to embrace the Sea of Quantum.
Freya didn't explain much to Tesla. In fact, from the moment the Valkyrie possessed the power to fight monsters, they were destined to be rejected by humans.
In the eyes of most humans, Valkyrie have never been protectors, but simply another kind of monster that can fight against monsters.
While people need the Valkyrie's protection, they also fear and reject Valkyrie.
If Freya hadn't changed the Valkyrie's fate, they might have only fought to the death, or fallen into a civil war among humans after defeating the Honkai...
Given the Valkyrie' originally limited power, they would most likely be unable to resist the weapons of war that humans use to kill their own kind.
In Freya's view, there was absolutely no need for Valkyrie to live such a humble life.
Of course, during Otto's reign, the Valkyrie were not much different from expendable objects in reality, and in the eyes of some researchers, they were just so-called experimental animals.
It was from the time when Freya served as Acting Grand Bishop and assisted Theresa in her rule that she repeatedly elevated the authority and status of the Valkyrie, and also gave them the power to break free from their expendable status. So it's not that the Valkyrie didn't Theresa, but that the Valkyrie Freya more.
Freya made the Valkyrie even more monstrous. Originally, she wanted to save more people. In her view, the injustices and tragedies of the world could not be saved because the people involved were not capable enough.
But as harsh realities repeatedly confronted her, Freya finally realized that even kindness has its limits, and ultimately she no longer wanted to save everyone.
"Let's get back to the main topic..."
Freya coughed lightly. Although she wanted to explain that Valkyrie and so-called humans were completely different species, she accidentally went astray and thought about artificial reproduction.
Moreover, it's not just the Valkyrie; the entire Alliance and the residents of Changkong City, which are under the Alliance's jurisdiction, have become very different from humans outside.
It can only be said that Rita, who is already 22 years old, longs for children. Her maternal instincts, which have nowhere to go, also give Freya a headache, although Rita has never said it out loud.
I really want her to have the baby.
However, considering that the current league cannot do without Rita, it is naturally impossible to grant her maternity leave.
Freya couldn't really say that in the past few years, she had been troubled not only by the Whitelist issues, but also by something else related to them.
Upon hearing Freya's light cough, Tesla adopted an expression of complete attentive listening.
"Simply put, not only Valkyrie, but also the current lower-level members of the Alliance are not suitable to coexist with ordinary people. Honkai Energy itself has a strong corrosive effect and even a certain degree of infectivity; when the Valkyrie were still weak, the Honkai Energy they carried only affected people with poor physical condition. The Honkai Energy carried by those Valkyrie was also relatively stable, so those Valkyrie could get married and have children like normal humans."
Freya's previous thoughts were distorted, and it's true that because of the Herrscher-style Valkyrie created by using the Yomotsu Hekitsuhime Antibody, not only can she not marry and have children with normal humans, but she Honkai Energy carried by the Valkyrie.
Of course, while many Type-B Valkyrie have similar issues, not every Type-B Valkyrie is like that. It can only be said that if a normal human were to combine with Herrscher-style Valkyrie modified with the Yomotsu Hekitsuhime Antibody, they would die on the spot.
The Jackal, which are as prolific as sows, continuously release new antibodies. When these antibodies enter the mass production stage, they are first provided to internal entities, including Changkong City under the jurisdiction of the alliance.
When Freya chose Changkong City as the concession, most of the original residents of Changkong City moved to cities around Changkong City. Now, most of the residents of Changkong City are low-level members of the Alliance, or retired Valkyrie, children and widows sent by welfare organizations from all over the world... Children and widows who can come to Changkong City naturally undergo strict screening.
Just as Freya said, not only the Valkyrie, but also the lower-level members of the Alliance are no longer suitable to coexist with ordinary humans.
Even considering the current strength of the Alliance's Honkai Antibody, the residents of Changkong City would not feel any discomfort even if the Changkong City were to become an environment with moderate Honkai Energy.
From a certain perspective, the current league has more or less fulfilled Cocolia's wish.
Tesla shook her head. She could understand Freya's intentions, but as the former executor of the Anti-Entropy organization and Welt's wife, she did not want to stand against Welt.
"I'm sorry, Freya, even if you say that... I can't support you."
"So, Sister Tesla wants the Valkyrie to clash with modern humans, or even start a world war with various countries?"
Tesla frowned slightly upon hearing Freya's sarcastic remark.
Tesla wasn't incapable of understanding Valkyrie's situation; she simply couldn't choose to sacrifice some people in order to save others.
But for Freya, Welt and Theresa's insistence seemed more like abandoning the group that should be saved for the sake of those who were mostly beyond saving.
Freya wanted nothing more than to slap the 'despairing reality' right in Welt's face.
In fact, if the alliance were to actually start a war with any country, only Freya's intervention could minimize the damage. However, if Freya were to intervene, her overwhelming power would cause an even greater backlash.
