The Youngster Continues to Direct the Battle

Therefore, for him, the most important thing right now is not to fight to the death with these Herrscher of Domination, but to find out why he was exposed.

He didn't want to be chased around by a bunch of rabble.

Unfortunately, each Herrscher of Domination can be considered an independent individual, and the technology he uses does not support his infiltration and unlocking of other Herrscher of Domination, making it much more difficult for him to do so.

If only I could get my hands on the Key of Erosion...

Thinking of a certain fox-like woman who hadn't shown her face in a long time, a thoughtful look flashed across Otto's eyes.

If he is not mistaken, the Key of Erosion is capable of penetrating the entire Domination Theater.

Although it may be much slower than corroding electronic devices, it is a shortcut to wipe out all the Herrscher of Domination.

I just don't know if Kevin has discovered the secret of that vixen woman...

Or is it that the other party doesn't actually care about a Key of Erosion?

With these possibilities in mind, Otto gave the Valkyrie standing nearby the formal order to evacuate.

Without the Key of Erosion, he could only enhance his infiltration of the Herrscher of Domination by sacrificing his Soul Steel body and leaving a backdoor program within it.

Only in this way can he ensure that he has enough initiative in future confrontations, so that he will have the bargaining power even when facing [Welt White].

Fortunately, he had left himself many options over the past five hundred years, and his reserves of secret bases and Soul Steel bodies were also very sufficient, allowing him to fight this war of attrition.

"Let's see who has the last laugh, [Welt White]..."

Otto glanced at the monitor screen one last time, but his gaze seemed to penetrate the puppets and see a masked man hidden behind the scenes. A smile full of anticipation crept onto his lips.

On the other side, Shi Hen the leader of more than a hundred Domination Puppet conquered the base, he was also somewhat surprised when he saw the more than eighty "Otto" displayed in the incubation chamber.

Although he knew Otto was always very wealthy, he didn't expect him to be this rich, able to discard more than eighty Soul Steel bodies so easily.

Well, even though Otto's defeat was quite convincing, he still sensed a trap in the fact that the Herrscher of Domination's sacrifices were far less than expected.

Undoubtedly, there are problems with these Soul Steel bodies.

But...

Looking at these "Otto" through the eyes of the nine puppets he had corrupted, Shi Hen felt little worry.

Even if Otto installed backdoor programs in these Soul Steel bodies, he still held absolute initiative with the Key of Erosion in his hand.

Even though the Key of Erosion's efficiency in corrupting Domination Theater is ridiculously low, he has only managed to occupy twenty-five of the thousand Herrscher so far.

However, the Key of Erosion can completely crack electronic programs in no time, thwarting Otto's plans.

He could even use these procedures to accelerate his own erosion of the Herrscher of Domination.

This is the composure that belongs only to the Behind-the-Scenes Boss.

As he thought about this, and looking at the Domination Puppet in front of him who started fighting over the Soul Steel body without any Herrscher demeanor, Shi Hen sighed helplessly once again.

As expected, with this rabble, he would never be able to make Honkai great again.

The so-called "Thousand Faces" is ultimately not as good as having a thousand people with one mind.

Just as he was thinking this, he sensed the touch of his true self tens of millions of miles away, and Shi Hen's thoughts immediately shifted.

North America, Anti-Entropy Headquarters.

"To all of you from Schicksal and Anti-Entropy, it's been a long time. I hope you haven't missed me too much."

On the projection screen in the tactical conference room, a handsome blond man with blue eyes was smiling and talking eloquently, while in the background behind him, a large number of Domination Puppet were clearly seen fighting against Schicksal- style mechs.

"It's that bastard Otto again!"

Looking at the blond man on the screen, Kiana gritted her teeth and said hatefully, clenching one fist tightly.

Even though [Welt White] shared most of her hatred, Otto was still one of the people she hated the most, the kind of person she would draw her sword on sight.

"This is just a pre-recorded video. Let's hear what Otto has to say first."

Shi Hen patted the back of the white-haired girl's hand and gently comforted it.

"Um..."

Feeling the power transmitted through the boy's palm, Kiana nodded in response, her emotions quickly calming down.

On the other side, the video continued to play, and Otto's voice continued to ring out, "As you can probably see, I am currently being attacked by the Herrscher of Domination."

Ah, what an evil and brutal group of Herrscher they are, not even willing to let a retired old man's peaceful life be spared.

"..."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone in the meeting room became strange for a moment.

How thick-skinned must this person be to dare call themselves a retired old man?

"Faced with these terrifying and ruthless Herrscher, I think you who always pride yourselves on justice will not sit idly by, right?"

So, I've attached the address with the video. I'm really hoping you can lend a helping hand to this poor old man!

Clearly unconcerned about what others thought, Otto said with a smile, and the video ended with the man's mocking smile.

The screen went dark, and after a brief silence in the conference room, Peggy spoke, "That's how it is."

On the surface, Otto sent us a distress signal because he was attacked by the Herrscher of Domination.

As she spoke, Peggy couldn't help but glance at the black-haired youth beside her, who was looking down in thought.

Although there was no evidence, her intuition told her that this matter was probably related to the other party.

After all, almost half a month had passed since the boy made contact with the Herrscher of Domination, and Anti-Entropy had not found much of a trace of the Herrscher of Domination during this period.

It was as if... there was a hidden hand silently manipulating something!

"But there is no doubt that this is a trap."

Unlike Peggy, Einstein added with normal thinking, his expression remaining calm, but two intensely burning flames ignited deep within his eyes, "I know Otto very well; he is not the kind of person who would panic and act recklessly because of something like this."

Since the founding of Anti-Entropy, Einstein had maintained an adversarial relationship with Otto, and he was well aware of the despicable and shameless nature of this former Schicksal Bishop.

"That's right, that bastard Otto probably wants us and the Herrscher of Domination to wear each other down so he can reap the benefits from the sidelines!"

Upon hearing this, Tesla immediately chimed in, forcefully swinging his glove-clad hand forward as if he were about to smash someone to pieces.

"However, we cannot turn a blind eye to the actions of the Herrscher of Domination."

He shook his head slightly and added, a serious expression on Shi Hen's face, "It's obvious that there's a reason why the Herrscher of Domination attacked Otto."

Allowing the Herrscher of Domination to act arbitrarily without knowing the reasons could have very serious consequences.

"Shi Hen is right."

"If Otto has something that greatly increases the power of Herrscher of Domination, we'll be in trouble."

Nodding, Himeko expressed her deep agreement with the boy's view.

"But according to the information Durandal shared, the targets of the Herrscher of Domination should be Herrscher like Kiana. Grandpa doesn't even have the Void Archive left!"

Theresa asked, looking puzzled.

After learning the whole story of Otto's downfall through Durandal's candor, she couldn't imagine what else he might have that would make Herrscher of Domination interested in him.

"We'll probably only find out about this when we get there."

Shi Hen sighed helplessly.

Although Otto decisively chose to run away after seeing the Herrscher of Domination under his command, the other party was clearly not someone who would honestly suffer a loss.

Shaking these people over was Otto's small act of revenge against the Herrscher of Domination.

Of course, Otto probably also had ideas like reaping the benefits without lifting a finger.

After all, he had this thought too.

In terms of accelerating the erosion of the Herrscher of Domination, in addition to using Soul Steel shells to increase the erosion path, reducing the number of non-Herrscher Domination Puppet at the source is also a feasible strategy.

If he eliminates all the Domination Puppet that don't belong to him, then the Domination Theater and all the power of domination will naturally be his.

"From this perspective, it seems we really don't have much of a choice."

Hearing the boy's words, Himeko couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

No matter what traps lie ahead, they cannot turn a blind eye to the Herrscher of Domination.

This is a perfectly legitimate and openly planned scheme.

"That damned Otto!"

Realizing this as well, Kiana gritted her teeth and roared angrily.

Even after being removed from his position as bishop, Otto still demonstrated that the other side still had the ability to control their actions.

"Since no one objects, let's get ready to leave in a bit."

Seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, Shi Hen immediately concluded, "Remember, never use your powers on the Herrscher of Domination lightly, lest they steal your power."

Although there was only one direct confrontation with the Herrscher of Domination, it is not difficult to deduce the conditions under which the Herrscher of Domination seized power.

"Especially on your side, Kiana."

The power of the Void Herrscher is crucial to our search for the Domination Theater; we must not allow the Herrscher of Domination to take it away so easily.

Looking at the white-haired girl, Shi Hen added, "Even if they failed to seize this authority last time, it's possible they might become stronger during this period."

Even if things were bound to come to that point, as the Anti-Entropy Leader, he should still issue a warning.

"I see."

Kiana nodded, showing no stubbornness as she understood her responsibilities.

"Huh? Kiana didn't actually try to be brave?"

Bronya couldn't help but glance at the white-haired girl again, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"I'm not a little kid anymore!"

Kiana pouted and said, her expression immediately becoming much more somber, "Besides, this is information that my sister went through so much trouble to obtain..."

As she spoke, Kiana thought of Durandal's forlorn expression when she told them about it, and her fists clenched tightly.

She believed that Durandal must have suffered a lot to be able to obtain information from [Welt White] so quickly.

That damned Welt White!!

In an instant, the girl's hatred for that person soared again.

"Yes..."

Thinking of how Durandal ate over forty steaks that night, Shi Hen couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Durandal really went all out to gain some advantage from him, almost exhausting Rita, who was in charge of cooking.

Fortunately, he was able to use the Schicksal Church's accounts in the end; otherwise, even with his salary as a Schicksal Bishop, he would have felt the pinch for quite some time.

Or, next time, try letting Durandal pay the bill, so that even the strongest Valkyrie will know how hard life is?

Shi Hen began to think seriously.

Chapter 178 The Young Man Continues to Direct the Battle

With the help of the Void Herrscher, they arrived near the address provided by Otto, Shi Hen and his group reached Otto's secret base.

Well, given the characteristics of the Herrscher of Domination, Shi Hen brought along all the main combat forces besides the Sea of Quanta group this time. This ensured their own strength while avoiding the possibility of being wiped out by the enemy.

At almost the same time, a considerable number of "Otto" rushed out of the secret base.

"Otto!?"

Kiana was stunned when she saw Otto, who numbered in the dozens by a rough estimate.

"Wrong, wrong!"

That cowardly Schicksal Bishop has already run away; this place is now our Herrscher of Domination!"

Upon hearing this, a Domination Puppet wearing Otto's skin immediately retorted, its hands and feet waving excitedly.

"It seems that these Soul Steel bodies are the purpose of the Herrscher of Domination in attacking Otto."
