People are collapsing, but the integrated strategy is launched

"Oh, by the way, Xia Ling, isn't Kiana going to take the B-rank Valkyrie promotion exam today? How did it go?"

Hai Mo asked curiously.

"Ahem, let me tell you about this, okay?"

Alicia raised her hand.

Ever since she was able to come to the system space to peek at the screen at any time, Alicia came to the system space almost every day. What she was most interested in were the several reserve and active Herrschers.

Therefore, Alicia watched Kiana's promotion test with great interest throughout.

"Kiana has been working very hard recently, spending every day in the exclusive training room of the dean. Now Miss Fairy estimates that her true strength may have exceeded the normal B-level Valkyrie level."

"If you take into account her powerful armor, she might be able to fight even an A-rank Valkyrie, right?"

"Eri, just pamper her. You didn't say a word about the fact that she was almost late for the exam, passed the written test with a low score, and her final overall score was much lower than Mei and Yaya's."

Xia Ling glanced at the smiling Alicia and added helplessly.

"Perhaps Ji Zi's injury dealt her a heavy blow, or perhaps the training room really worked. In any case, I have successfully avoided the possibility of becoming a joke among time travelers."

"It seems that we can relax a little bit recently..." Yan Wei asked relaxedly: "What about Xi?"

"Study hard and make progress every day..."

Xi lay listlessly on the table: "Otto's class schedule is really full... Now I always feel that Rita and Yulandel spend more time at home than me..."

"But the good news is that the secret weapon for stacking boxes is now ready to use."

"It took Yulandel half an hour to come up with just one painting, but brute force cracking might be more convenient for her."

"So if any of you encounter any problems, you can tell me. Although there are only five paintings superimposed in the Dream Castle model now, it is already usable."

"Also, try to avoid being under Otto's nose. After all, when you use those paintings, you consume my Honkai energy. If you consume too much, Otto might notice something on my part."

Hai Mo came to his senses from his contemplation when he noticed that three pairs of eyes were directed at him.

"My situation is a bit complicated..."

"The head of the Oceania branch is dead."

“?”×4

"It was determined that he died in a plane crash, which was an accident."

Hai Mo spread his hands and said, "This is what my Haisi friends told me. It comes from the official announcement that has not yet been issued."

"But didn't you say that he just recently completed the integration of power? How could he die at this time?" Xia Ling couldn't believe it.

"I'm curious too, but I don't know." Hai Mo shook his head: "I didn't marineize the plants and animals of the Oceania branch too much. What's more, this incident didn't happen in front of their eyes."

"But what I can confirm is that, for some unknown reason, the branch chief's former confidant was turned against him by Dr. Ryan."

"Right now the power structure in Oceania is in chaos, and a bunch of people are about to beat their brains out, and Otto has no intention of stopping it. He seems to be just watching for fun."

"But thanks to them, Wendy and I have had some free time."

"But the bad news is..."

"The bad news is that once their internal problems are resolved, they will have to deal with your problems, right?" Xia Ling's expression was a little solemn.

"To be precise, it should be only me. Wendy's part of the experiment has basically been abandoned. Strictly speaking, in the eyes of those high-level people, she only has one role now, that is, a vessel for the gem."

"Eh? Aren't they really worried that Wendy will become a Herrscher?" Alicia was very puzzled: "Besides, doesn't Skyward have the technology to seal the Herrscher core? Why does it have to use a cute girl to do this?"

"According to their thinking, if Wendy could be legalized, she would have been legalized long ago. The reason why she has evolved into her current state must be that she is lacking in some conditions."

Haimo relayed the views of the scientific research team from Oceania.

"However, they don't know that Wendy will become law-like two years after the gem is implanted. Although even after becoming law-like, she seems to be quite weak."

"So, our current leisurely state should be regarded as the calm before the storm?"

At the end of the meeting, Xia Ling summarized as follows.

End of volume remarks

Hello dear readers, this is Qingguang who is almost as busy as Klein during graduation season.

How about this? Doesn’t this end-of-volume remark come a little suddenly?

This is actually true. After all, according to the original outline, there is another plot at the end of the third volume.

However, when I was sorting out the detailed outline recently, I found that the ratio between the third and fourth volumes might be a bit unbalanced.

The original fourth volume was planned to be the content from the beginning of the main storyline to before the War of Destiny, and this period of plot...only Wendy can be said to be a relatively coherent long plot.

I cannot write about Kiana’s illusion because Sirin’s storyline is arranged separately, and the first and second chapters are relatively short. So, in order to avoid the situation where the third volume has seventy or eighty chapters and the fourth volume has only thirty chapters, I decided to move part of the content of the third volume to the fourth volume.

So, here’s a preview of the plot for volume 4.

In the third volume, Xia Ling's various clones have completed their initial arrangements, and it can be said that the situation is very good. But at the same time, Xia Ling also tasted the impact of changing the world line for the first time.

In the fourth volume, this influence will be further intensified. Xia Ling is about to face a foreshadowing that has been buried for a long time since the beginning of her time travel, which is our Yingyingying.

How will the story develop in the face of Sakurairo Samsara, which is very different from the original?

In addition, Oceania, which had been undercurrents, finally saw the outbreak of conflicts. As time went on, Haimo's situation became increasingly worse.

As the main storyline unfolds, Wendy's original time of transformation is approaching. At this moment, Haimo discovers that Ryan, whom she has always looked down upon, is not as mediocre as he appears to be...

In short, all the stories will be staged in the upcoming fourth volume.

Tomorrow, the fourth volume - the starting point of a completely different story, will open!

Chapter 1 A Sudden Dream

"Well......"

In the middle of the night, Theresa suddenly opened her eyes.

The sheets beneath him were once again soaked with cold sweat.

"That dream again..."

"Well, I feel really bad, it feels like..."

"What happened to me recently?"

"Why not ask Xia Ling tomorrow? She always seems to have some strange tricks up her sleeve. Maybe she can find out what happened to me..."

the next day.

"So, this is why you've been dozing off in the office every day these days and being so mysterious and refusing to say anything?"

When Xia Ling was called to the office, veins popped out on his head.

"You guys have nothing to do but come to harass me every day, but now that something has happened you don't say a word, right?"

"Eh? So, you all knew about this?"

"My dear dean." Xia Ling pinched Theresa's delicate face with her hands and ravaged it wantonly: "We are not blind. We can see the unknown wet marks on the sheets behind the villa every day."

"And because your huge amount of water output is really inconsistent with wetting the bed, we almost suspect that our dean has entered the stage... wuwuwu."

Before Xia Ling could finish her words, Theresa, whose face was flushed red, blocked her mouth.

"You little slut, what kind of weird things are you thinking about? That's the cold sweat that woke me up from nightmares at night!"

Xia Ling quickly raised her hand to signal her surrender, and then Theresa let go of her hand.

"Okay, okay... So, let's get back to the topic."

Xia Ling's expression became serious: "What kind of nightmare did you have?"

"I, I don't know..."

Theresa shook her head in frustration. "After I woke up, the memory of that nightmare disappeared without a trace, leaving only an extremely painful palpitation, as if I had experienced something extremely terrible in my dream..."

"But as the number of times increased, I gradually left some impressions about the dream. The reason seems to be that I may be repeating the same dream most of the time?"

"So, what impression did you leave?"

"I remember... it seems that there are only... cherry blossoms, the village, the festival grounds, death... and a name."

"In that dream, they seemed to call me... Yae Rin?"

"..."

"I understand, Theresa." Xia Ling concealed the turmoil in her heart: "Regarding your question, I still need some time to prepare."

"Wait a day or two, and I'll try something."

......

Late at night, Xia Ling slowly sat up from the bed.

After sorting out the situation within the system and with other clones, Xia Ling discovered that things seemed to be taking a completely different path from the original.

Because she was too shocked in the morning, she did not think about it carefully. However, after returning to the system space in the evening, after a discussion with several people, she found an important problem.

She originally thought that Theresa's current situation corresponded to the Return of Grace chapter in the comics. After all, both the nightmare and the characters matched perfectly.

But when they checked their memories at night, they discovered that in the Return of Grace chapter, Theresa did enter Yae Sakura's stigmata space, but the role Theresa played was not Yae Rin, but Kallen.

This is not the key point. The main problem now is that in the original comics, if you die in the Stigmata space, you will die simultaneously in reality.

And if Theresa's role is Yae Rin, whether according to her description or Yae Rin's original fate, she should have died in the Stigmata space more than once.

But all she experienced was a nightmare, some cold sweats, and listlessness the next day.

"But I know the root of the problem this time. When facing Yuno in Nagazar City, Theresa should have been defeated again, and then Yae Sakura took control of her body and won the battle."

"But because of my appearance, Yaezakura didn't have to make a move this time, and we've already defeated Yuno."

"But... this kind of variable shouldn't have such a big impact..."

"...Sure enough, to be on the safe side, I still have to go and see the stigmata on Theresa's body in person."

Xia Ling tiptoed out of bed, put on a piece of clothing, and then quietly activated her ability.

The next second, she appeared in Theresa's room.

Theresa, who was soundly asleep, had her brows furrowed, as if she had encountered that nightmare again. As her body twisted restlessly, the quilt had already slipped to the ground, revealing a large area of ​​skin as tender as a girl's.

Xia Ling did not conceal her Honkai energy fluctuations when she was teleporting. Jizi is still in the hospital, and Theresa is the only one in the villa who can sense this subtle fluctuation.

but......

"Sure enough, something is wrong... She is sleeping too soundly. Even with such obvious Honkai energy fluctuations, she didn't wake up. I'm afraid her consciousness has completely fallen into that stigmata space."

Xia Ling reached out and pushed Theresa, but sure enough, Theresa didn't react at all.

Seeing this, Xia Ling became bolder in her actions.

Reaching out and gently unbuttoning Theresa's pajamas, then taking them off completely, Xia Ling turned Theresa over. Sure enough, Xia Ling saw something she expected.

A faint, blood-colored holy mark appeared on Theresa's smooth, white back, and was now flickering with light.

Xia Ling gently placed her hand on the stigmata, which felt delicate and smooth, exactly the same as her skin.

"Not quite right... Is this a holy mark..."

"Forget it. I'll know if it's a stigma after I try it."

As she spoke, Xia Ling activated her ability.

After all, the Stigmata Space is also within the scope of her invasion ability. If possible, she can directly use her ability to open a door into the Stigmata Space, perhaps to get to the root of the problem.

However, things were not as simple as Xia Ling thought.

"Eh? No response?"

Xia Ling was slightly stunned. If Theresa entered the Stigmata Space at this time, she would definitely be linked to the Stigmata Space, and she could invade through this link.

But now it seems... this stigmata clearly seems to be working, but I can't feel the connection between Theresa and the stigmata.

Could it be that she was really dreaming?

Xia Ling was at a loss for a moment.

"Forget it. Professional questions should be answered by experts. Let's go to the paradise and ask Wei Wei about the Key of Erosion."

After taking a photo of the stigmata and restoring Theresa's clothes to their original state, Xia Ling came to the paradise of the past with a heavy heart.
