Chapter 486
Freya's sudden seriousness caused the piece of meat he had just swallowed to get stuck in his throat.
So, to everyone's stunned expressions, the Abyss Civilization's big boss, who had driven the Alliance to the moon and turned Earth's human civilization into a lunar Survivor Civilization, collapsed in agony, clutching his throat. The knock-off Espada around him panicked.
Welt Joyce quickly helped the other person up and tried to push the stuck piece of flesh down by inserting his fingers into the other person's throat.
Sirin, the Humanoid Honkai Beast with the Herrscher Authority, was at a loss and handed FU a silver dinner knife. Seeing that scene, Fu Hua, the Humanoid Honkai Beast with the Herrscher Authority, silently withdrew the chopsticks she had just handed over.
"So you're the one who betrayed this organization."
"???"
Sirin was clearly startled by Fu Hua's solemn tone, and then she noticed that she was holding a knife in her left hand and chopsticks in her right.
She was about to hand over the chopsticks, but in her panic, she handed over the knife with her left hand instead.
Welt Joyce was stunned. When he saw Sirin handing him the knife, he genuinely thought that the usually well-behaved and adorable Sirin was trying to take the opportunity to kill his big boss.
Well, after all, our boss is a bit shameless and has some lolicon tendencies.
No problem. Although FU likes Himeko, he does have a tendency to be a lolicon.
Freya also had one, but her little maid had grown into a curvaceous maid adjutant in the blink of an eye, so Freya never got to experience the joy of raising a little girl.
By the way, Rita thinks raising a little girl is really fun, especially a little girl who can't take care of herself, has low blood pressure when she wakes up in the morning, and needs kisses and hugs to get up.
Putting aside the question of who controls whom between herself and Rita, Freya felt that, after serious discussion and research, she was most likely the one being controlled.
Right now, she really didn't expect that the big boss of the Abyss Civilization was almost killed by a piece of meat.
Even more unexpectedly, the moment FU collapsed, the adorable Sirin actually held a knife in one hand and chopsticks in the other, and then handed the knife over, which even startled the nearby Shi Zhi Fu Hua.
Then, Shi Fu Hua, who was usually very energetic and whom Freya and the others preferred to call "Hi Fu" in private, suddenly adopted a serious tone and began to condemn a little girl like Sirin.
So she was quickly beaten up by Fu Hua, the ruler of the Tenth Herrscher Authority. The Humanoid Honkai Beast with the power of the Tenth Herrscher was born later than Fu Hua, so she should naturally be the younger sister. But now it is too common for the younger sister to be more mature than the older sister.
However, some younger sisters seem more mature than their older sisters and are very indifferent to them, which may indicate that they are severely siscon (sister-obsessed).
Meanwhile, Fu Hua, whom Freya and the others privately referred to as the Dominator of Super Symbols, revealed to everyone the reason why she made things difficult for Sirin when she beat up Hai Fu.
That's right, this little girl, Hai Fu, who is only a few months old, harbors a grudge against Sirin because Sirin stole a piece of her cake not long ago... and her revenge was to probably pour the squid legs that Sirin doesn't like into Sirin's bowl while eating hot pot.
Although Sirin is older than Haifu, Haifu inherited all of Fu Hua's memories and should have a more stable and mature personality. Who knew that after realizing her own independence, she would revert to this state of self-centeredness?
Fortunately, Welt Joyce was reliable, and the stuck piece of meat was finally swallowed.
Having just made a huge blunder, Fu immediately sat down at the table, elbows on the surface, fingers interlaced, striking the meaningful pose often seen on the faces of certain commanders.
However, even with FU making that expression, the situation on the other side had completely spiraled out of control.
FU originally wanted to respond to Freya's seriousness with seriousness and earnestness. After all, neither of them were exactly serious people. The fact that they could turn an important meeting into a competition of showing off their food and drinks showed that both of them were missing a screw in their brains.
After being beaten, Hifu was so upset that he poked the steamed bun on the table with his chopsticks. This action made Sirin, who was already terrified, tremble and she couldn't help but rush into the arms of the kind-hearted Welt Joyce.
Mei, who had been reading the book since the beginning, remained calmly reading, occasionally picking up a few easy-to-chew ingredients from the pot in front of her.
Suddenly switching to her second personality, Seele adopts a spectator's stance. Kallen hesitates whether to use chains to suspend the High Charm. The chains around her seem eager to try, and a male Wendy, a gender-swapped version of Wendy, taps his bowl with chopsticks, adding background music to the already lively atmosphere.
Himeko could only give Freya and the others a wry smile on the other side of the screen. Well, the problems of the Abyss Civilization's higher-ups were even more fatal than Freya had imagined.
"Fine, it's hopeless. You can just wait to die. We have nothing more to say."
Having roughly understood why Freya had said that, the high-ranking members of the Abyss Civilization, disregarding the joyful atmosphere around the hot pot, immediately began to denounce Hai Fu for ruining the mood.
Although Freya felt that FU was indeed responsible for accidentally getting stuck, the main culprit behind the consistently cheerful atmosphere among the higher-ups of the Abyss Civilization was indeed this "high" talisman.
"Speaking of which, Immortal Fu Hua, that 'Hi Fu' is a personality that Fu created using your true self, right? She possesses all your memories..."
What are you trying to say?
"Okay, I was just saying that you were such an outgoing person when you were little."
Upon hearing Freya's tactful words, Fu Hua saw the other side through the screen, a crooked smile on her face, as if she were about to be ridden by the Dragon King and then get beaten up by Super Fu. Fu Hua's lips twitched slightly.
569. Mei!! We've never had that kind of relationship!!
This crucial meeting, which will determine the future of the two civilizations, continues. Fu Hua, who has been teased by Freya, chooses to remain silent and does not intend to pay any attention to Freya, whose face seems to be etched with the words "mischievousness."
Fu Hua clearly knew that she would only make things worse by explaining herself, so she chose the wise saying, "If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move; if the enemy advances, I'll retreat."
If you simply ignore the other person, Freya will naturally lose interest in playing pranks, given her personality.
Noticing Fu Hua's response, Freya indeed lost the idea of teasing Fu Hua, since such a sullen personality was not suitable for jokes.
However, the Hi Fu created by Fu Hua's true self was just like a happy child, which really surprised Freya.
After a period of commotion, the talks entered an important phase.
"... As you said before, the People from the Sky may be the only powerful hunting civilization that spans many parallel worlds, but they may also be just a low-level hunting civilization similar to the People from the Sky."
FU offered another explanation. Of course, having assimilated with the Honkai Consciousness, he naturally knew the truth. In fact, the People from the Sky they were about to face were indeed a hunting civilization that spanned multiple parallel worlds.
Even the vanguard forces encountered in the parallel world where Two resides are merely forces developed by that hunting civilization in that universe.
Without a doubt, such powerful People from the Sky are not something that the Abyss Civilization and the Moon Civilization could contend with together.
However, some of the People from the Sky encountered in parallel worlds may be hunting civilizations that have not yet begun their cross-parallel world conquests.
"To fight this formidable foe, we need to understand them first. Therefore, I propose that we each contribute a portion of our forces to fight the vanguard of the People from the Sky from the parallel world."
"People from the Sky from a parallel world?"
"Yes, it's a parallel world where the People from the Sky Civilization hasn't reached the interdimensional level yet, and the time is around 2029."
Upon hearing FU's words, everyone at the meeting realized that the other side also seemed to have some knowledge of parallel worlds. Freya originally thought she could still take the lead, but unfortunately, in this new battle to conquer parallel worlds, they were not much ahead of the other side.
Where is your first base?
"No, that parallel world was only recently discovered. It's on a similar timeline to your first parallel world. The first base is indeed on Earth, and you can't find it."
FU replied with a smile, as if mocking them for doing something foolish.
Freya and Kevin frowned at the malicious smile. Freya was reflecting on her previous mistake, while Kevin wanted to beat the other person up. SU looked at her incorrigible playmate and couldn't help but laugh and cry...
"We had the opportunity to find your first base before?"
"Heh, I'm not telling you."
"Fu, if you're too naughty, someone will break your legs."
"It doesn't matter, it's not like I've had a lot of breakups anyway."
Faced with Freya's guess, FU deliberately made a joke, which immediately resulted in Kevin threatening him. Kevin also wanted to know where the so-called First Base was. However, he did not expect FU to answer like that. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the other party really is a liar who keeps making jokes and then gets hurt again after healing.
"Anyway, it's no use for you to find the First Base now, the whole Earth already belongs to us."
"Tsk, let's get back to the point. Regarding that People from the Sky a parallel world, are you sure it's not some kind of inter-parallel world hunting civilization?"
"Of course. Simply put, there can be many hunting civilizations, and there are many hunting civilizations that transcend world levels. The People from the Sky we encountered are one of those transcendent hunting civilizations. The People from the Sky Civilization that I proposed to join forces against is a Celestials civilization in another parallel world that is not yet transcendent. Although even a non-transcendent People from the Sky Civilization stronger than us."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Upon hearing FU's answer, everyone realized that he had not deliberately exaggerated the enemy's strength. After all, there are too many worlds evolved from the Imaginary Tree. There are worlds where the Schicksal exists, and there are worlds where the Schicksal does not exist. There are even worlds with completely different civilizations, or worlds where technology is still stuck in ancient times. Therefore, it is not uncommon for such a powerful hunting civilization to exist.
The negative impact of the Honkai is like a natural disaster, and the same is true for the hunting civilizations that have been added to the Whitelist.
That would also be a disaster.
However, compared to the power holders in history who triggered world wars due to the effects of the Honkai, the so-called People from the Sky are nothing more than another kind of power holders who, under the influence of the Honkai, trigger cosmic wars and parallel world wars.
War is inevitable.
However, this is simply part of humanity's process of combating disasters.
From the initial natural disasters such as flash floods, storms, and earthquakes caused by the Honkai, to the later viruses, plagues, and mutations, and then to the Honkai Beast and Herrscher.
The conflict between civilization and Honkai has always been one where the stronger the civilization, the stronger the Honkai.
As civilization repeatedly suppresses the crises brought about by the Honkai, the Honkai itself brings a new wave of crises time and time again.
Perhaps it was the sudden global pandemic, or perhaps it was the power holders who instigated a world war for their own interests.
For the Abyss Civilization of FU to survive, it must confront the People from the Sky Civilization.
If Freya's Moon Civilization wants to continue to exist, it must join this battle; otherwise, the Abyss Civilization on the side will have to choose to fight it to the death.
However, Freya underestimated the power of the People from the Sky Civilization. She hadn't expected that even some People from the Sky Civilization that hadn't reached the level of crossing parallel worlds would be stronger than the current Abyss Civilization and the Moon Civilization combined.
"It feels a bit like the initial situation when Schicksal and Anti-Entropy joined forces, where even the two organizations combined couldn't withstand the power of the World Serpent..."
Upon hearing Freya's exclamation, Kevin and Kiana's faces immediately darkened.
Welt thought Freya was quite mischievous. Regardless of the final fate of the World Serpent Organizations in other worlds, the World Serpent Organizations in this world were completely unable to escape Freya's manipulation.
Freya also dragged her own sister into a mess.
"Pfft, Kevin, you're so lame. Even if it were my alt account, I could still easily outmaneuver you."
"... Fu, do you still want me to corner you in the alley or behind the stadium and beat you up?"
Upon hearing FU's teasing, Kevin gritted his teeth and said...
However, the alley and the stadium he mentioned led unsuspecting people to misunderstand the situation.
"Kevin, so this is what your relationship with FU is like."
Mei's eyes widened in surprise, her tone filled with utter astonishment, clearly teasing someone.
"Mei!! He and I have never had that kind of relationship!!"
Seeing his wife begin to degenerate again, Kevin was so angry that he wanted to kill Fu right then and there.
Yes, as a time traveler, FU definitely led Mei astray. Especially since Kevin and SU usually got along well, and SU looked particularly gentle and refined, Mei often imagined the two of them together.
Incidentally, FU and Kevin are also quite popular. Their love-hate relationship, in FU's own words, is like that of a self-proclaimed human-loving information merchant and a hot-tempered guy in a bartender's uniform.
Of course, Kevin is not usually irritable. As the prince of the academy, he is cheerful and sunny, handsome, has outstanding athletic ability, and is a transfer student from Europe to the Far East. Yes, he is a foreigner.
Even if Kevin's personality is not quite like that hot-tempered guy, every clay figure has its temper. With a bad friend like FU, Kevin naturally can't always maintain a mild attitude.
Later on, the two developed a strange relationship where one would trick the other today and the other would corner him in an alley tomorrow.
"Oh, so that means you and someone else..."
Freya unconsciously started thinking inappropriately too. There was no way around it; unlike FU, she was born as a woman and was obviously more likely to be fascinated by similar works.
However, even though it's BL, there are different levels of BL. At least Freya doesn't think that her soul has been twisted into the shape of BL, and she's not some kind of high-class BL fan. At most, she just likes to think dirty thoughts.
That's right, she had privately suspected Kevin and SU of having an affair.
Kevin glared fiercely at Freya, immediately silencing her Freya was about to speak recklessly.
If she keeps being naughty, she'll really break her legs. The reason FU is so naughty is mainly because Kevin can't reach him through the internet cable to hit him.
And if they actually get through the internet cable, it's hard to say who will hit whom then.
After all, FU's consciousness has assimilated with the Honkai Consciousness and is now in a higher-dimensional spacetime. The body he is currently using is just a container, like a signal receiver, just like Jana now. Although she has various sensations, that body can be discarded at any time.
Kevin spent some time getting Mei back to normal. No one present had expected that the legend of the Previous Civilization, the genius who was beyond imagination and made countless researchers in the current civilization sigh, was actually a little bit of a fujoshi (a female fan of male-male romance), and had also imagined her man with several other men.
Of course, many of the women present felt a sense of closeness to her, despite her seemingly aloof demeanor.
Although the talks were briefly interrupted again due to the farce, the two sides quickly resumed their discussions on how to join forces and how much combat power to send.
Neither Freya nor FU would agree to put all their fighting power into it, and going to a parallel world is not without its costs, especially since teleporting creatures is extremely difficult.
For example, when Freya teleported Theresa, Bronya, and others from the parallel world of the Light Chaser back to her own world, Theresa, Bronya, and the others needed a period of rest to recover from the aftereffects of crossing the parallel world.
Freya herself was naturally unharmed. As Herrscher of Finality with the ability to teleport, she and Aurora could easily traverse the world membranes of two worlds and could also travel in the Sea of Quantum for a long time.
Ordinary people like Theresa and Bronya would find it difficult to travel between parallel worlds. Fortunately, Freya and Aurora can establish a safe and stable channel through their trinity and powerful spatial teleportation abilities; otherwise, any teleportation across worlds would be extremely dangerous.
Freya is currently primarily responsible for the development of the Light Chaser world and the reboot of the two parallel worlds. This is why she and the Valkyrie Aurora to these two worlds are both so-called "Quantized Valkyrie".
Even during this time, Cocolia was developing a kind of quantum armor. By equipping this quantum state, the wearer could enter a state between certainty and uncertainty, thus becoming immune to all attacks.
Freya stated that the Moon Civilization could provide a small number of Quantized Valkyrie, but FU pointed out that the Quantized Valkyrie's combat power was too low. After all, the projections pulled out from the Sea of Quantum, even those from the previous second, could only retain 70% of their original combat power.
Such a difference in combat power is enough for the real body to instantly kill the projection. However, the advantage of the projection is that it is not a pity if it dies, and new projections can be pulled out from the Sea of Quantum.
"Bianca's projection is sufficient for most problems."
Freya crossed her arms in front of her chest, she had complete faith in her top performer's skills, just like a manager would have faith in the blended coffee he brewed.
