People are collapsing, but the integrated strategy is launched

Although as Otto's white glove, Rita often carries out some shameful tasks, but she has never seen a situation where someone comes here just to eat dog food like this time.

It’s not enough to just eat, you also have to write down the dog food you have eaten and add your own thoughts... Rita feels that she is about to become the sole promoter of these two people.

Then think about Yulandel in the distant Tianming Branch... Tsk, I'd better not think about her. The more I think about her, the more I feel that she is a blockhead.

Rita smacked her lips unhappily, stood up, and prepared to leave. Today was the last day of the observation period, and after it was over, she would go back to report to Otto.

It's decided. After returning, she will take Yulandel shopping. In order to relieve the depression of eating so much dog food, Rita decided to show her love to other people.

However, before that, I still have to report back first...

One day later, at the headquarters of Destiny.

"Hmm..." Otto flipped through the mission report sent by Rita, nodding in affirmation with a smile from time to time.

"Well done, Rita. You completed your mission very well."

After turning the last page, Otto looked up and praised.

"Your Excellency the Bishop, thank you for your praise. Rita is just doing her job well."

Rita responded with a respectful nod.

"Well, Your Excellency, have you come to a conclusion yet?"

"Although there are still some details that don't match, it's basically harmless."

"I'm basically certain that this Haimo is definitely not a pseudo-hersr. And her true situation... may have a lot to do with Wendy."

"So, who exactly is this Miss Haimo......?"

"Well...if you listen to my analysis, you will naturally have some guesses. Rita, you should come along too. The follow-up of this matter will most likely be left to you."

"Being mentally prepared for things in advance will also make it easier for you to continue your work in the future."

Chapter 36 Haimo: Yes, yes, that’s what I think

Otto opened the document again and asked the two to come closer.

"Look, according to the information Rita brought back, after the Honkai occurred in Oceania and the Pseudo-Hermaphrodites were born, the concentration of Honkai energy and the activity of Honkai beasts remained almost unchanged, whether in the days before or after."

"This is illogical. Pseudo-Hermaphrodites are not like normal Hermaphrodites. The core of naturally formed Pseudo-Hermaphrodites is a high concentration of Honkai energy crystals."

"Even if this pseudo-herrscher is only A-level, it is impossible that he will have no impact on the local Houkai energy ecology, whether it is a positive impact or a negative impact."

"Besides, look here, after the Honkai happened, this girl claimed that she couldn't control the Honkai beast."

"That's even more impossible. Even a Pseudo-Hermaphrodite naturally has the ability to control Honkai beasts. Moreover, there were not many powerful Honkai beasts present at the time. They were basically all low-level Honkai beasts. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to be quickly dealt with by a few Valkyrie teams on vacation."

"Based on these two doubts alone, we can basically rule out the possibility that she is a pseudo-hersr."

"So who is she? Is she someone pretending to be a pseudo-Herrscher and trying to sneak into the Oceania branch?"

Rita suggested a possibility.

"No, regardless of her motive, Hai Mo's medical examination report is not deceptive. Although her Honkai energy reserves are not high, her Honkai energy adaptability, physical strength and recovery ability are all at the Herrscher level. If she wants to fake such physical data, she must first be a genius of Youlandel's level."

"Allowing a genius of this level to risk his life and sneak into the Oceania branch... I can't think of any organization that has the courage to do this."

"Back to the previous question, after confirming that she is not a pseudo-hersr, the observation report given by Rita is very intriguing."

Otto spread out the page recording Haimo and Wendy, and tapped the table rhythmically with his fingers.

"According to this report, it is clear that Haimo's attitude towards Wendy is different from that towards others."

"So what do you think is the most special thing about Wendy?"

"She wanted the gems." Rita said without hesitation: "So, she came here because she wanted the gems?"

"No, I've said it before, she doesn't belong to any faction." Otto shook his head and added: "But it's not entirely wrong to say that it was Wendy's Desire Gem that attracted Haimo."

"Suppose there is such a creature now." Otto deliberately emphasized the word "creature": "Since its birth, she has a natural liking for someone with a Herrscher core. What do you think this creature is most likely to be?"

"The bishop means... a companion Honkai beast?" Rita finally reacted: "But how could a Honkai beast have..."

"No, Lady Rita, it is possible for a companion Honkai beast to have intelligence."

Amber had already retrieved Benares's information from the database of the second collapse.

"Because you have not participated in the second Houkai, you may not know much. As the companion Houkai beast of the Second Herrscher, Benares has self-awareness, and on this basis, it can even transform into a human form, and once fought with Destiny in this form."

"So, Bishop, you mean to say that you think Haimo might be Wendy's companion Houkai beast as the fourth Herrscher?"

"That's right. Although every Herrscher of the previous civilization had a clear companion Honkai Beast, only the companion Honkai Beast of the Second Herrscher has appeared so far in this century."

"So we know nothing about the formation mechanism and situation of the companion Honkai beast."

"But for now, I think the possibility that Haimo is a Honkai beast is much greater than the possibility that she is a Pseudo-Hermaphrodite. At least, except for her strength, she can basically correspond to Benares's situation. And the strength part can also be explained by Wendy not fully awakening."

"But if she is a Pseudo-Hermaphrodite, then this is fundamentally different from what I know about Pseudo-Hermaphrodites."

"So, Amber, Rita, include obtaining Oceania's experimental progress on the Desire Gem as one of your monthly routine tasks." Otto instructed: "Always pay attention to Wendy and Haimo's situation, and report to me once a month. If you can obtain Haimo's body tissue, that's great. If not, don't force it."

"Yes, Lord Bishop."

"At first, this move in Oceania was just a casual move, and its role was just to serve as a control group for the Herrscher of the Void... Now it seems that Miss Wendy really gave me a surprise."

"I'm a little curious... If Wendy succeeds in becoming a law-based person in the end, what kind of changes can this suspected companion Honkai beast, Haimo, bring to her..."

......

"So, you're sure Rita's gone?"

In the Paradise living room, a round table was projected by the system in front of the original sofa, and Xia Ling, Yan Wei, and Hai Mo sat around the round table.

Oh, and there is also Ai Lishia. Although this poster girl Ai Li can only send out fixed greeting voice messages, Xia Ling still insists on including Ai Li as a member of the daily discussion.

"Well, over the past week, I asked Wendy to take me around the branch several times on the pretext of getting familiar with the environment."

"In addition to the character I created who likes small animals, in the Oceania branch, whether it is the cats and dogs, the birds living nearby, or even the kangaroos outside the base, they have all been fed a little bit of sea cells by me."

"Under my deliberate control, although I didn't allow them to completely transform into Hai Si, they are enough for me to use them as my eyes and ears."

"Based on the observations of these animal friends and my tracking of Honkai energy, it is basically certain that Rita has left the Oceania branch."

"Good fellow." Yan Wei exclaimed, "Then isn't the ecological environment of the Oceania branch very bad right now?"

"Hmm? How do you say that?"

"Just think about it, in the future, when Haimo introduces the animals of the branch to others." Yanwei imitated the tone of a certain place in Shenzhou: "Cheese Haisi, cheese crawling Haisi, cheese flying Haisi..."

"Let's not talk about the issue of Oceania becoming a nest of sea heirs..." Xia Ling cleared her throat: "During this period, there has been no other action from the Tianming headquarters. It seems that Haimo should have gotten away with it."

"I just don't know what's going on with Otto. Did he identify Haimo as a pseudo-hermssider, or did he discover the true nature of Haimo Honkaimon?"

"I think Otto is not stupid. At least Rita's observations must have revealed the unusually close relationship between Wendy and I." Haimo speculated, "With Otto's intelligence, he should be able to associate it with the Desire Gem on Wendy's body."

"Well, the Oceania issue has come to an end." Yan Wei stretched lazily: "Can we relax for a while now?"

"Good question. Can you beat Yulandel?"

"I can guarantee that I won't be beaten to death." Yan Wei raised his hand.

"I can guarantee that someone will avenge me after I die." Hai Mo spread his hands.

"That's right. We're going to London to find the Second God's Key this fall!" Xia Ling slammed the table and said, "Why are you going there if you can't beat Youlandel? Go and train for me!"

Chapter 37 Preparations before the Great Collapse

As time goes into May, the temperature in Saint Freya is rising steadily.

Although summer has not yet fully arrived, the attire of students on campus has become noticeably cooler.

"Kiana!" Xia Ling ran out of the fitting room with a red face, wearing a one-piece swimsuit that showed off her figure very well. "What kind of swimsuit did you choose for me?"

"Wait, Sister Xia Ling, calm down. This is all tailor-made for you. It hurts, it hurts—"

"Tailor-made, right? Seductive style, right?" Dark air seemed to be emanating from Xia Ling's body. Before Kiana could run far away, a hand suddenly reached out from behind her and fiercely grabbed the back of her collar.

Then, Xia Ling emerged from the air and showed the label she had just taken off the swimsuit with a stern look on her face. On the label, the four big golden words "Sexy Swimsuit" seemed to be glowing, attracting the attention of several people.

Kiana's eyes widened instantly: "Bronya, you sold me out!"

Bronya silently looked away: "I don't know whether it's for sale or not. Bronya is just changing the swimsuits in the closet according to Kiana's request."

“Didn’t you say you put the trademark…”

Before Kiana finished her words, Xia Ling's strong little hands had already grabbed the back of Kiana's neck.

"Kiana-san really went to great lengths to get me to wear a sexy swimsuit~"

Xia Ling's voice came faintly from behind Kiana: "It must have taken you a long time to find a swimsuit of my size. Are you secretly happy? Ah~ Sister Xia Ling, who is usually so strict, is now going on vacation in a sexy swimsuit. This contrast is really great~"

Imitating Kiana's voice, Xia Ling's anger began to increase visibly.

"I'm not, I didn't! Mei, save me!"

"Oh..." With a sigh, Mei turned her head silently and no longer looked at Kiana's miserable condition.

The reason for this joyful scene before our eyes is the great Manila collapse that is expected to occur on May 22nd.

After setting the goal of resolving Anna's knot in the Manila Collapse, Xia Ling began to prepare for this operation in advance.

Although this collapse is rarely recorded in the main storyline, it does not mean that its intensity is not high. In fact, before the collapse, Manila's permanent population was as high as 13 million.

After the collapse, more than two million people died in the Manila area and nearly three million people were infected to varying degrees, which shows the intensity of the disaster.

Facing this level of collapse disaster is the first time for Xia Ling, so to be on the safe side, except for Hai Mo who is unable to move in Oceania, Xia Ling and Yan Wei will go out together this time and enter the battlefield from different places.

As a free man, Yan Wei can go whenever he wants, but Xia Ling is different. As an employee of Tianming, she cannot act at will.

However, this does not mean that Xia Ling has no chance. The Far East Branch is not far from Manila (Manila is in the Philippines). If this level of collapse occurs, the Far East Branch should provide assistance.

If you want to enter Manila in a normal way, you have to figure out a way to blend into the aid team, and the aid team is usually composed mainly of members of the combat sequence who are on patrol duty that day.

Therefore, Xia Ling took the excuse of asking for leave to go to the beach with the Three Great Families, and rotated all her rest days to mid-May. The entire late May when the collapse was about to occur was all Xia Ling's duty time.

As a result, Xia Ling got a reasonable attendance opportunity, a long-awaited seaside holiday, and a swimsuit battle from Kiana.

However, after Xia Ling severely ravaged Kiana, she finally chose to wear that extremely seductive swimsuit. After all, it was Qi Bao's request, and Xia Ling really couldn't bear to refuse.

Of course, shy Xia Ling chose to wear a translucent white coat over her swimsuit.

Although Kiana later praised the translucent coat for making the temptation even better.

While Xia Ling was having a blushing and heart-pounding beach trip, Yan Wei was also making preparations in advance for his trip to Manila.

To be precise, she had arrived in Manila ahead of time.

One year after the third Honkai outbreak, the Honkai energy concentration in Changkong City has gradually decreased. Although it is still far from a safe level, it is barely habitable for some people whose bodies have developed a certain resistance to Honkai energy due to the Honkai.

Although there are not many such people, there are still several thousand of them due to the huge population base of Changkong City. With the help of the government, these people have established a settlement in an area in the urban area where the concentration of Honkai energy is lower.

After the settlement was built, there was naturally no need for Raven to let the children live outside in danger, so on the day of its completion, Raven brought Flame Reed and his own children into the settlement and opened an orphanage - Xiola's House.

In the settlement, the safety of the children was naturally guaranteed, and Yan Wei also took the opportunity to ask for a short vacation of about one and a half months.

"What? You're going to be gone for more than ten days?"

Raven was stunned by Yanwei's request. Even as a cadre of the World Serpent, she had never seen such a long vacation.

"Reed, if you're planning on leaving, you could just tell me directly..." Raven seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Why do you always like to imagine some weird developments?" Yan Wei said speechlessly: "I said half a month is the maximum period, because I don't know how long I will be delayed this time... But don't worry, I won't run away."

"Because they do look alike." Raven said confidently, "Look, the children have settled down now and can live a stable life in Changkong City. You are now proposing to leave for half a month. I think it is normal, isn't it?"

"I say, how can you, a person who usually carries out a month-long mission, have the right to say that I only took half a month off..."

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, Raven. I have something else I want to ask you."

"Huh? You say."

"You World Snakes, are you still hiring?"

"Have you finally come to your senses? I'll go and get you started right away." Raven jumped up.

"You think too much, it's not me."

"Oh..." Raven sat back down and said without much interest, "As long as the talent is good enough, of course I will recruit you... Of course, if the talent is not good enough, I can recommend you."

"Okay, then maybe I can find a few good candidates for you. You can ask the HR of your World Snake to see if they are willing to accept them."

"So where are you going... why are you recruiting people?"
