Miss Riddler just wants to level up quietly

"Is this the legendary sword in the stone...?"

Catherine stretched out her hand.

Rita realized something was wrong and quickly tried to dissuade her, but it was too late.

The escape route behind was blocked by stone slabs, cutting off the possibility of escape.

The strange cat she fought with yesterday emerged from behind the rocks and looked at her with a fierce look.

"It seems that there is an ambush among us."

With a thought, the sickle blade quietly took shape in his hand.

On the other side, a bunch of robots wearing hoodies and masks ambushed them with guns drawn, and the situation was critical.

"Miss Catherine, hide behind the stone pillar!"

Susanna faced the difficulty and fought with the ambush soldiers.

The iron machinery was as vulnerable to her sharp claws as a page of paper.

Compared to Rita who was caught in a entanglement, she was more relaxed here.

After a while, the enemy was wiped out.

After Susanna returned to the stone pillar, she asked with concern, "Miss Catherine, are you okay?"

"Thank you, I almost thought I was going to die."

"It's okay, it's okay, this is what a Valkyrie should do...Eh?"

A silver-gray pistol suddenly appeared in Catherine's hand.

"Ha ha......"

"Thank you, please take a rest."

As soon as he finished speaking, the muzzle of the gun fired tongues of fire, and the high-speed rotating bullet penetrated the girl's neck.

Susanna covered her neck and fell to the ground, blood staining the ground red.

Just when Catherine was about to call it a day and report to the Jackal, Susanna on the ground suddenly stood up.

"That's too much..."

"What? How?!"

Catherine was surprised and stepped back.

A golden feather floated out, and she lost consciousness instantly.

The Eighth God’s Key·The Key to Consciousness——Yu Duchen.

Although it is a mimic, it still has many abilities and can read and change memories.

"There is no clue about the second god's key. Is he an abandoned son?"

Susanna shook her head, thinking that Catherine knew important information.

"However, abandoned children also have value."

After injecting the potion and reorganizing the soul steel, Susanna turned into Catherine the next moment.

"Just let me be a careless World Snake... No, there are residual memories."

[The things underneath are very important and must not be discovered by Tianming. 】

In my memory, a person named Nightingale sent this sentence to Catherine.

"The most dangerous place is the safest place...Humph, it's not in vain that I have been acting for so long."

Following the rugged path, 'Catherine' arrived at the place where the text message was hidden.

This is a wider stone hall, with a rectangular semi-circular table in the middle, and behind it, a condescending throne.

The person sitting upright is naturally Ziyao.

"Congratulations,

After successfully finding this place, I thought I would have to put some effort into separating you and the two S-class Valkyries. "

"What should I call you, Susanna? Catherine?"

"Or...Otto?"

Seeing that his identity was revealed, Soul Steel reorganized his body again and turned into a blond man.

He is the supreme leader of Destiny, Archbishop Otto.

"Miss Nightingale, hand over the Second God Key so we don't have to go to war."

For Otto, Ziyao poses no threat to him.

In other words, there are only a handful of people in this world who can pose a threat to him.

"Stop, this is not where you should be."

Ziyao said indifferently, holding the throne high.

Seeing that he was still moving forward, in the darkness, the puppet that had been prepared in advance pulled the trigger and shot Otto in the heart.

"Don't waste your efforts, Miss Nightingale, you can't kill this soul steel body."

"Sure enough, it can't be ruined."

The girl shook her head helplessly and then closed her eyes.

"Please stop, Otto."

In the darkness, Karen walked out with a gun.

Otto was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and he showed a gloomy expression.

Karen?

No one knows better than him how to tell the difference.

Unlike those soulless puppets in the laboratory, what stood before him was a living Kallen.

There is no aura of Honkai energy, and no holy marks, just an ordinary, flesh and blood... person.

Having done countless experiments, he could never be wrong——

For a moment, Otto's expression was particularly wonderful.

Volume 20: Chapter [-] Trading

Otto is a smart man, a fighter among old foxes, who likes to benefit himself at the expense of others.

If you want to fool him, it will be difficult without some real skills.

Rather than deceiving, it is better to state your intention directly.

"Please keep your distance, Otto."

Kallen held the gun in both hands and pointed it at his head.

Otto stood obediently and raised his hands to show that he was not hostile.

His eyes were entirely focused on the doll named Kallen Original Sin Hunter.

So true....

No matter the breath, appearance, voice... they are all the same as the kind and righteous figure in the memory.

If he hadn't personally presided over Kallen's funeral 500 years ago, he would have almost thought that the person in front of him was the Saint Kallen herself.

"We are all smart people, so I won't beat around the bush."

"Give up the Second God Key, and I can answer anything you want to know. Of course, it must be within the scope of my abilities."

Ziyao didn't think Otto would let go of the fat he got, and it was unrealistic for him to give up the Second God Key.

As far as the plot is concerned, this point is too early.

The Second God Key cannot be given to Otto, at least not now.

Once the plot line changes, for Ziyao, she will lose the advantage of clairvoyance.

Now that the enemy is clear and we are hidden, this is the best situation and opening.

"who are you?"

Otto put away his cynical arrogance and carefully examined Ziyaodao.

"I?"

"At least a dozen people have asked this question in the past two days."

"My code name is Nightingale, World Snake Cadre."

Are they really ordinary cadres?

Of course Otto didn't believe Ziyao's lies.

As far as he knew, although the World Snake possessed the heritage of previous civilizations, it did not yet have the ability to create 'human beings'.

And the person in front of him with a gun pointed at him was undoubtedly Kallen.

"Oh? Then why do you think I want to listen to you?"

"Is it just her?"

"I have to admit that you know me very well, but this cannot be used as a bargaining chip."

Negotiation is like a blind date. It is a good strategy to suppress the other party and increase your own value.

Otto said calmly, ready to engage in psychological warfare with Ziyao.

“…”

Ziyao, who was sitting on the throne, crossed her legs.
