Cocolia's Confession Session

They even threw her directly to Cocolia.

Thinking of this, a hint of resentment appeared in the girl's eyes.

"Are you sure you don't want to change it?"

Shi Hen asked with a smile, showing no surprise whatsoever.

From the very beginning, what he admired about Peggy was the girl's gratitude.

If the other party truly didn't value his feelings for Cocolia, then he wouldn't have put her in her current position.

Well, although Peggy herself might not have felt it much, he had seen all of the other party's efforts and secretly offered some small assistance.

Therefore, to reward the girl's efforts, he didn't mind granting her this small request and letting Cocolia live.

Of course, Cocolia could have was to stay alive.

"I only have this one request."

Peggy said firmly.

"In that case, I also have a condition."

As he spoke, Shi Hen slowly extended a hand toward the girl.

As the boy's hand drew closer, Peggy couldn't help but close her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly under the light like butterfly wings fluttering.

Despite her body trembling with fear, the girl remained motionless, displaying a resolute demeanor of being completely at his mercy.

"Just be yourself and make the choices you think are reasonable at the right time."

With a light laugh, Shi Hen placed two fingers together on the girl's brow.

He has been planning his Anti-Entropy strategy for several years now. If Peggy still needs to do something against her conscience, then she is underestimating him.

"Waaah..."

Peggy's body involuntarily trembled backward, and as she reached out to cover her forehead, her gaze towards the boy instantly became incredibly resentful.

Chapter 75 Cocolia's Confession

Shi Hen finally "opened" his eyes, what came into view was a slightly blurry, mature face.

"Cocoa... glug..."

Shi Hen opened his mouth slightly, about to ask something, when a large amount of liquid quickly entered his mouth, turning his words into a drowning sob.

Yes, he's currently in a life support pod.

"He's awake. Drain the protective fluid immediately!"

Upon seeing the boy awaken, Cocolia immediately issued orders to the experimental personnel nearby.

Without the slightest hesitation, the researchers who received the instructions acted swiftly.

Splash!

The liquid in the life support capsule rapidly decreased and was drained, and the heavy glass door opened accordingly.

He staggered and fell, Shi Hen was safely caught by the medical staff who were already prepared.

After being busily attended to by a group of medical staff, Shi Hen quickly changed into dry and loose normal clothes and had a formal meeting with Cocolia in a cozy lounge.

"Ms. Cocolia, where am I!?"

While rubbing his temples as if trying to relieve the lingering pain in his brain, Shi Hen questioned the blonde woman in front of him, his voice weak but still carrying a faint sharpness.

"This is Haiyuan City, a secret base of Anti-Entropy located deep in the Pacific Ocean. You are safe now."

With a gentle smile, Cocolia answered, her eyes filled with satisfaction as she looked at the boy in front of her.

The development of events did not surprise her researchers.

The Herrscher of Reason Core, which is extremely resistant to transplantation experiments and can only be stably preserved with special devices to prevent it from going berserk, appears quite calm in the boy, as if the boy is the natural destination of this core.

Moreover, with the help of the Herrscher of Reason Core, the power of the Serenity Gem, which had been enveloping the boy's consciousness like Amber, began to gradually dissipate, eventually allowing him to wake up safely.

Having solved two hot potatoes in one go, Cocolia's mood instantly improved, and she even wanted to open a bottle of vodka to celebrate.

But soon, noticing the almost undisguised wariness in the boy's eyes, Cocolia's joy vanished instantly, and a warrior's keenness quietly rose within her.

Cocolia understood that the real battle was about to begin.

She had to convince the boy that everything she did was to make Anti-Entropy great again!

"Haiyuan City? But... shouldn't I be in Schicksal?"

As he rubbed his forehead, Shi Hen's brows furrowed deeply, as if even his memory was becoming hazy.

That was more than three months ago.

During the battle with the Void Herrscher, you were affected by spatial turbulence and fell into the Imaginary Space. We didn't hear from you for a long time, and we all thought you were dead.

Cocolia explained with a sigh.

When the news of the boy's death came, she was indeed saddened for quite some time.

After all, she had asked the other party to take care of Bronya and the others.

"Void Herrscher... Imaginary Space..."

He muttered to himself, Shi Hen brows furrowed, as if trying to recall what had happened earlier.

"In that battle, you used the power of the Plague Gem and extracted the Serenity Gem from the Void Herrscher. Do you remember?"

Cocolia reminded her softly.

"The Serenity Gem..."

He spoke softly, placing a Shi Hen on his chest as if trying to sense its location, but his expression immediately changed. "Kiana! How is Kiana now!?"

As Kiana's only close friend, he would always keep the girl in his heart.

"Don't worry, she'll be fine."

Although there is still no news related to that child, the Void Herrscher has not reappeared either.

Cocolia answered softly, a gentle smile on her face, "And the people in the Far East Branch are all safe and sound."

"You can even call them later if you want."

"..."

Shi Hen gave Cocolia a deep look, but didn't elaborate on the question. Instead, he frowned and asked, "But how did I end up here?"

From the Schicksal HQ to Haiyuan City, it's almost halfway across the Earth.

Even if the coordinates in Imaginary Space do not correspond one-to-one with those in reality, there should still be a scientific explanation for this.

Only a fully and reasonably performed Yang-style sit-up can gain everyone's approval.

"... We found you near the Eye of Haiyuan."

After a slight pause, Cocolia spoke frankly.

"The Eye of Haiyuan?"

Shi Hen's face showed confusion.

"Yes, the Eye of Haiyuan."

Nodding slightly, Cocolia's face became more serious. "Actually, Haiyuan City is a relic left by Previous Civilization. Its purpose was to communicate with the Quantum Sea and make the city a gateway to the Quantum Sea."

The Eye of Haiyuan is the closest place to the Quantum Sea.

According to the Science Department's speculation, you were originally destined to fall into the Quantum Sea, but due to some unforeseen circumstances, you ended up in Haiyuan City.

As she spoke, Cocolia looked at the boy with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

It has to be said that the boy's life is indeed quite tough, having survived being trapped in a place like the Imaginary Space and even drifting all the way to the edge of the Quantum Sea.

"So that's how it is."

With a relieved sigh, Shi Hen's eyes still held a deep sense of confusion. "But I remember I should have already... and I think I also heard Mr. Welt's voice."

As he spoke, Shi Hen looked around as if trying to find someone who didn't exist there.

"At the last moment, it was the power of the Serenity Gem that protected your body."

I then used the core of the Herrscher of Reason to reawaken your consciousness.

You should be able to feel it now, right? There are two Herrscher Core within you.

Cocolia explained solemnly.

"The Herrscher of Reason Core..."

Upon hearing this, Shi Hen, and his face instantly filled with anger. "Wasn't Mr. Welt killed by that imposter, and his core also taken away?!"

The Herrscher of Reason Core that should have been in the hands of Welt White ended up in your hands, Cocolia. Do you still dare to say that you didn't collude with that guy?

"That is indeed the case."

Nodding without denying it, Cocolia's expression was serious and earnest. "The core of the Herrscher of Reason was indeed taken away by [Welt White]. I also paid a huge price to get this core back from that guy."

After all, I am an executor of Anti-Entropy; I'm not so indifferent as to stand by and watch Alliance Leader Welt be humiliated by that guy.

Shi Hen: "..."

He almost believed what he was told.

"Would that imposter give up Mr. Welt's Herrscher Core so easily?"

Shi Hen asked doubtfully.

"Perhaps that guy is too arrogant and doesn't even look down on the power of the Herrscher of Reason."

Cocolia shook her head and sighed helplessly.

At least, when she received the Herrscher Core from [Welt White], she didn't really feel that the other party cared much.

Over the years, she didn't even receive a single inquiry from Welt White, as if he had completely forgotten about the matter.

"But you say you can't bear to see Alliance Leader Welt humiliated, yet you were the one who conspired with that imposter to murder Mr. Raiden Ryoma, weren't you, Ms. Cocolia!?"

Refusing to accept Cocolia's explanation, Shi Hen questioned her with an uncontrollable rage.

"I was forced into it!"

With a calm and composed expression, Cocolia explained, "If I hadn't agreed to [Welt White]'s demands, Anti-Entropy would have been destroyed by that guy years ago!"

Furthermore, Einstein and the others also agreed to make Welt White the Anti-Entropy Leader.

Cocolia felt she had been wronged.

When Welt White was in power, there was little opposition within Anti-Entropy- Entropy, but now she's being made to take the blame alone?

Is there no law left in this world?!

"But without your support, Ms. Cocolia, how could that imposter have possibly stolen the position of leader!?"

Shi Hen pressed on relentlessly, demanding an explanation.

"Should I drag the entire Anti-Entropy into the war and then use the destruction of Anti-Entropy to prove my integrity?"

Cocolia retorted confidently.

"But at the very least, we shouldn't be accomplices to evil!"

He closed his eyes and sighed deeply. Shi Hen long while, Shihen reopened his eyes, his expression much more stable. "Then the Third Honkai Outbreak, the Serenity Gem incident in Singapore... were all these things orchestrated by that imposter?"

Staring intently into the blonde woman's purple eyes, the boy's expression was unwavering.

"Shi Hen, I know you have a lot of prejudice against me, but some things are not as simple as you think."

Only when you truly stand in my position will you realize how difficult it is to uphold Anti-Entropy.

Meeting the boy's sharp, razor-sharp gaze, Cocolia sighed dejectedly, "Well then, Einstein and Theresa are already on their way to Haiyuan City."

Once they arrive, I'm willing to undergo any form of investigation to prove my innocence. What do you think?

Speaking softly, Cocolia's face was full of grievance, but a hint of confidence flashed deep in her eyes.

Well, between [Welt White] and Anti-Entropy, she has already decided to choose Anti-Entropy.

It has been proven that Welt White is a complete madman who has absolutely no intention of considering her one of his own.
