People are collapsing, but the integrated strategy is launched

Is it similar to Gray Shu's ability... It has great potential, but it's still too fragile.

Kevin estimated the amount of Honkai energy he had consumed. It was not too much and was still within an acceptable range.

However......

Kevin watched as the scene in front of him changed into a quaint town.

"besides?"

On the other side, in the Dream Castle.

"As expected of Kevin...the breeding pond I just drew is gone." Xi looked at the art book in his hand with some pain. The first page of the art book had disappeared.

"It seems that to deal with people like Kevin, we still have to use those landscape paintings that find flaws."

"It doesn't matter. You can just move the pictures around, right?"

Xia Ling looked at Kevin's progress and said, "Besides, with Kevin's current Honkai energy reserves, it won't be long before he realizes the seriousness of the situation."

“Okay, I’ll watch here, and you can go out and talk to Walter.”

"Is Tianming okay?"

"It's not a big problem. I usually paint alone. Even if they notice I'm not there, they will think I've gone into some painting."

Chapter 30 Walter: I'm not dead yet!

Coming out of the castle model, Xia Ling discovered that Walter seemed to have put away the simulated black hole.

Instead, there is a strange space constructed of unknown matter.

"Mr. Walter, have you already started building your defense line?"

"That's right, but...even if I try my best, I can only trap him here by stalling for time like this."

"This is based on the premise that his condition is obviously very poor. Therefore, if I want to trap him for a long time, I need to stay here and continue to repair this 'maze'."

"Can your body...take it?" Xia Ling was a little worried.

"It doesn't matter. Without the consumption brought by the Star of Eden, I can still hold on for a long time." Walter seemed quite confident in his sit-ups: "If one day I really can't hold on anymore... then it's probably time for a turnaround."

"Well, since you insist on doing this, I won't persuade you any further." Xia Ling shrugged: "You can take your time to build up your defense. Kevin should not be able to break through my blockade in a short time."

"Come to think of it, I'm a little curious, Xia Ling, how did you trap him?"

"That's easy to say. It's difficult for us to get supplies in the Quantum Sea. It's the same for the other party, and it's obvious that his condition is even worse."

"As long as we grasp this point... then we can turn the situation into one in which it is not impossible to break the blockade, but the Houkai energy required to break the blockade is difficult for him to accept."

"Is that so...Now that you mention it, I have some new ideas."

Walter's eyes lit up, and he continued to devote himself to building his defense line without stopping.

On the other side, Kevin is still carrying out his mission of finding the differences.

"How can this fantasy world be so realistic... If this world is really a world in a painting, then the quality of the paintings is too uneven..."

Kevin searched the mountain in the painting anxiously, trying to find a discordant place.

After all, Xi's paintings rely on her experience, and realism alone is not enough. When she really tries to draw a world, she needs to consider dozens of times more things than ordinary paintings.

In the previous painting, Kevin observed that the flying movement of a bird was obviously unreasonable. This was a project related to his major, so he "saw through" the painting directly.

And this quaint picture of the Chinese mountains... He believed that if Hua were here, he would be able to find a breakthrough quickly.

It's a pity that he is not Hua.

"I've wasted too much time. Forget it. I'll just break the painting by force..."

As he spoke, Kevin casually raised a surge of cold air, breaking the world in this painting and falling into the next painting.

"How's it going, Xi, are the paintings still in stock?"

"That's enough. I left a lot of drawings while I was slacking off. It's definitely enough to trap Kevin for a few hours."

Xi took out a stack of drawing paper and showed it to Xia Ling.

"What about Honkai Energy?"

"This may be lacking a little...but don't we still have you?"

"Don't use up all the energy of Honkai too much...at least leave some for me." Xia Ling said speechlessly.

The reason why Xi was able to squander Honkai energy so confidently had to do with a collection they had recently obtained.

[Viviparous Lily: Randomly swap the Honkai energy reserves of our units. ]

The original effect of the collection is to disrupt the cost. The actual effect in reality did not surprise Xia Ling. It can only be said that in this case, the viviparous lily can be used as a means to replenish Honkai energy, but it is not very friendly to teammates.

After obtaining this collection, Xia Ling will no longer be afraid of long-term single-player combat. After all, as long as there is a chance to replenish it, her Honkai energy reserves can be calculated based on the sum of four people.

"Next, we just have to wait for Walter to finish his work..."

......

Without the extra expenses of the Star of Eden, Walter's work speed was extremely fast. Even before Xi had the chance to use the viviparous lily once, Walter had already completed the construction.

"Okay, now my arrangements are complete."

Walter also looked exhausted, but he still called Xia Ling.

"Xia Ling, before you return to reality, I have two things I want to tell you."

"Don't worry, Mr. Walter, just go with peace of mind. I will take good care of Dr. Tesla and Dr. Einstein." Xia Ling looked like she was possessed by a drama spirit.

"I'm not dead yet..."

Walter was speechless, but he had known Xia Ling for so long that he was used to her occasional twitchy personality: "The first thing is also related to you. Do you remember the request you made to me during our first open communication?"

"You mean, I want you to help me once?" Xia Ling just remembered that there was such a thing.

At that time, she originally wanted to use Walter as insurance for the next few plans, but later the plans were implemented more smoothly than the last, so she did not use this opportunity.

"Yes, I will probably be staying here for a long time, so it may not be convenient for me to take action." Walter pushed his glasses: "However, after going through so much, neither I nor the doctors have any trust issues with you, so I plan to give this promise to another person."

"You may not know that Siegfried Kaslana, the former S-class fighter of Destiny and Kiana's father, is now in Anti-Entropy."

"Siegfried?" Xia Ling didn't expect Walter to suddenly mention this person's name: "But didn't Kiana say..."

“This is also related to the second thing I am going to talk about next.”

Walter sighed deeply, with a hint of guilt in his eyes.

"Qiana's background is very special. I believe you can see some of it. Aiyin will explain the specific situation to you."

"And what I want to tell you is another plan, which is also the core secret of Anti-Entropy. This plan only exists in the minds of me and a few doctors. There is no record of it. I hope you can keep this secret as well."

"This plan is not yet fully mature. We came up with the idea after Siegfried told us about Kiana's situation. Originally, I was supposed to push forward this plan, but now that I'm trapped here, it's obviously not possible. So, I hope you can help Ain and Tesla."

"This plan originated from the Second Honkai Impact, and in its first stage, we need to send a warship to Saint Freya."

"I believe you have heard of this name from my words. It is called - Moonlight Throne."

Chapter 31 Walter said he died first

After returning to Haiyuan City, Aiyin had been waiting anxiously for a long time. At the same time, Tesla also appeared in a hurry.

As soon as they saw Xia Ling come out, the two doctors immediately surrounded her and started asking her all kinds of questions.

Since there was nothing to keep secret about this experience, Xia Ling did not hide it. She only concealed her conversation with Kevin and repeated how she helped Walter delay time and what Walter told her afterwards.

"Joachim is the guy who's going to mess us up. I'm really *intense anti-entropy swearing*!"

"You're right, but I haven't forgotten the lobster head that was so anxious that it almost cried." Aiyin also breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time cue Tesla next to her.

"Chicken coop head you!"

Automatically blocking Tesla's telegram, Aiyin looked at Xia Ling and said, "Ms. Xia Ling, I really thank you for this matter. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid Yang's best case scenario would be to give up his body and stay in the quantum sea, and there would be no chance for communication like now."

"It was just a simple favor. I'm sorry I couldn't bring him back."

"I know him well. If he remains indifferent in the face of such a threat, I will start to suspect that Cocolia has created another copy."

Tesla said, "As for what he said... Siegfried should have no objection to it. The key is the Moonlight Throne..."

"Without his legal authority, this plan will probably be at a standstill for a long time..."

"Speaking of this..." Xia Ling asked knowingly, "What exactly is the initial plan that Mr. Walter mentioned?"

"......" The two doctors looked at each other in confusion.

"It's not so much a plan as it is... it's a bad idea."

Tesla explained: "The ultimate goal of this plan is actually very simple. We want to create a Herrscher with all the powers of a Herrscher to fight against the End."

"But this idea is obviously unrealistic when there are only three Herrschers now, so we have drawn up an initial plan."

"We want to use the Moonlight Throne's Houkai energy conversion function to create a being similar to Sirin, who had six Herrscher cores during the Second Houkai."

"Six cores... But now only one has appeared..."

"So we are talking about something similar. In fact, our expectation is that as long as she can master the four Herrscher cores, it will be fine. As for the candidate..."

"Kiana?"

"Yes, I didn't expect Yang Lian to tell you this." Aiyin raised her eyebrows and took over the topic: "Qiana's life experience can be said to be very complicated. I will send you a copy of the specific content later. In short, after evaluation, we believe that she has this ability."

"At the same time, this is also the reason why we feel a little guilty towards her. After all, we failed to save Sirin and Cecilia during the second collapse, and now, we have to make Kiana the core of this plan..."

"To be honest, we feel very sorry for this family."

"However, you may not understand these topics now. You might as well go back and read the history of the Second Honkai Impact and part of the Moonlight Throne Project that we sent you before you make a decision."

As she spoke, Aiyin took out a document.

"This is Mr. Walter's long-term leave application. We will apply for a year. After that, I will handle related matters as Walter's representative. Please give this document to Dean Theresa."

"Ah, come to think of it, she still doesn't know Walter's true identity... If you come forward, she will probably think that Walter is a spy for Anti-Entropy?"

“It’s okay. Walter is not here now anyway. It’s okay for me to say that he is Lobster Head’s husband.”

"You want to fight, don't you, Chicken Coop Head?"

Tesla received a series of angry telegrams from the side.

......

"What? Teacher Walter asked for leave to go home?"

Theresa took the document with a suspicious look on her face.

"What do you mean by sick leave? I think he's in good health."

"I'm not sure either. You can ask Walter's... uh, guardian for the specific situation."

Xia Ling gave Theresa Aiyin's contact information.

“Guardian… this word shouldn’t be used like this, Xia Ling.” Theresa was a little speechless, but she still took it over: “What about Walter himself, hasn’t he contacted you?”

"Of course not." Xia Ling shook her head: "I was still talking to him on the phone before I came in."

"Where is he now?"

"He said he had something urgent to do, so he hung up first."

Xia Ling answered Walter's condition truthfully.

"Hang up, hang up..." Theresa's mouth twitched a little: "Have I been disliked to the point where I don't even want to hear my voice?"

"How could that be? Theresa is the cutest person in the world!"

"You, don't jump on me suddenly!"

......

Walter's departure did not cause much waves in St. Freya's College. In the following months, the college was peaceful. There was no major collapse and no anti-entropy causing trouble.

Xia Ling and Ai Yin communicated very regularly, once a week, and every month they would go to the Quantum Sea to visit the lonely old man Kevin and his prison guard Walter.

During this period, Walter did try to communicate with Kevin, but the two of them, one an expert in negotiation and the other a cold-faced riddle teller, obviously failed to achieve any communication results. Walter even became more convinced of Kevin's dangerousness.

For the Big Three, crisis contracts have now become a necessity in their lives. They set aside a fixed time every night to think of ways to get contracts. No one knows who started this trend, but Xia Ling guessed it was probably Bronya. In her words: Isn't getting contracts more interesting than the Howl Battle?

However, fighting frequently does not mean fighting well. For now, breaking through level 9 is a big problem for them. But the good news is that at least their teamwork and individual strength are much stronger than before. It’s just that their fighting style has become a bit extreme, and they often perform some extreme operations, which scares Ji Zi a lot.
