Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

Page 248

"Not only that, but the other party should be able to mass-produce this level of blessing equipment, and blessings are generally not that weak."

Upon hearing that such a dangerous thing could even be mass-produced, Cecilia and Theresa frowned even more deeply, while Otto gave Roland a long, hard look.

"The fact that they can mass-produce it means that their methods are far more sophisticated than this?"

"Roland, you only told us to be careful with this kind of blessed equipment... which means for now we only need to be careful with things like this, right?"

Otto made his analysis, which made Cecilia and Theresa blink repeatedly, looking as if they hadn't thought of it before, while Roland looked at Otto and shook his head with a smile.

"Although I know that guy a little, I don't know him very well... And even if you really know him inside and out, you still have to do some probing to accurately judge his situation in the face of this completely unknown situation, let alone someone like me who only has a superficial understanding."

"So I'm just giving you information based on what she's presented so far. As for more—I'll test her a bit, and then I'll handle the rest."

Oh?

Otto narrowed his eyes slightly, while Roland met his gaze and continued speaking.

"Ultimately, sending Cecilia back was just to resolve the issues here, and also to let her come back to let us know she's safe and sound, and to let her meet with acquaintances. So I've been prepared for all sorts of situations."

“Otto, I roughly know what you’re thinking. All I can say is that your original vague idea was probably the best way to fulfill your expectations. That would be the best outcome for both you and the saintess. And what else… even if we could achieve that, so what?”

"I think you understand what I mean."

"Besides that, I believe in your abilities, and I also believe that you definitely have some trump cards that you haven't revealed yet—so before I finish testing you and deal with the other party, all you need to do is hold the Far East, and that's entirely within your capabilities."

“Cecilia has no problem managing the various issues of this Far East branch. After all, she is the captain of the Snow Wolf Squad and the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal. I haven’t said a word about these arrangements from the beginning. This is the maximum concession I’ve made. You handle your problems, and we handle ours. It’s better to keep things separate to avoid conflicts, right?”

Roland's words made Otto think deeply.

He wasn't particularly surprised that Roland knew about his situation.

After all, he had already learned some of Roland's methods from Cecilia. Although Cecilia was unlikely to reveal the whole story, she had said quite a bit with Roland's tacit approval, which gave Otto some psychological expectation of the God Group [Roland].

Therefore, he also pinned his personal goals on the God Group, which is why he previously displayed such an ambiguous attitude—in order to blur the line between the God Group and Destiny, and at the same time, to blur the power held by the higher-ups of both sides, hoping to gain some influence over the God Group and obtain their help.

Roland clearly saw this and directly broke some of the previously accepted rules.

What Otto found most reasonable was Roland's part about the saintess.

Yes…

It's not like it was hundreds of years ago now.

Or perhaps I already experienced it once hundreds of years ago.

The saintess was about to be taken to the execution ground. In order to save her, he released the Honkai Beast. Although this saved the saintess from the execution ground, it also caused her to die at the hands of the Honkai Beast while fighting against it.

This matter certainly involves some conspiracy, even if one is just a pawn in someone else's game.

But this incident itself already speaks volumes.

If I insist on resurrecting the Saintess now, then the essence of the matter will be pushed back to the exact same state as before…

He rescued the saintess by any means necessary, and after she was saved from the first execution ground, she discovered that the world had become the second execution ground where she would be executed.

0Request flowers

The only difference was that the executioner at the first execution ground was someone else, while the executioner at the second execution ground was the saint herself…

Resurrect Kallen.

After thinking about it for so many years, Otto had actually figured it out a long time ago.

A person who would say such a thing understands neither Karen nor themselves.

he…

He was just a selfish, wicked person who wanted to undo a mistake by giving everything he had.

He had just lost his mind because he happened to see some turning point.

But Otto has calmed down now.

He also thought Roland was right.

Once this part of the problem is solved, the subsequent problems will naturally follow.

If Cecilia is not taken into account, then Roland is a stranger to Schicksal.

If he were to participate in commanding either the headquarters of Destiny or the Far East branch, it would be equivalent to him being a high-ranking official parachuted in.

Similarly, Otto was an outsider to the gods.

So even though Roland only has Ryougi Shiki by his side now, Otto can forget about ordering Ryougi Shiki to do anything.

The Divine Group and the Far East Branch of Destiny were originally two separate organizations. From Destiny's perspective, Otto shamelessly put it that their relationship was one of cooperation with the Divine Group—but considering their current situation, they were nothing more than stray dogs unilaterally accepting aid from the Divine Group.

Roland clearly separated everything; he had no intention of interfering with destiny, which could even be considered a blessing.

So Otto, free from his ulterior motives, nodded in agreement with Roland's words.

Otto and Roland understood each other without saying a word; they just needed to exchange a few words to know the truth.

Cecilia, because of her own stance, is more aligned with the gods, so she sees things quite clearly. Only Theresa is still confused about this aspect.

Fortunately, she is simple-minded and not only confused about this matter, so it's not a big problem.

Roland explained everything clearly, and then he gave them a brief reminder about what he needed to do.

“In that case, I will unleash a massive collapse on the Siberian plains. This is my test of that person—so you should prepare yourselves.”

…pill….

214. The sun is synonymous with victory.

"To trigger a massive collapse!?"

Although the second Great Honkai hasn't started yet in the original Honkai world, during this period, especially after Cecilia returned, she mentioned many measures to deal with the Honkai and gave many definitions of the Honkai. Coupled with the fact that he went straight to the research institute as soon as he arrived and has been working with Cecilia's ideas to develop and produce equipment, the standardized definition given by Mebius—the concept of the Great Honkai has indeed been finalized.

The term "Great Collapse" is exactly what it sounds like; it refers to a collapse on an extremely large scale.

The inevitable consequence of such a large-scale collapse is that the amount of debris generated during the collapse will reach an extremely high value.

In such an environment, it is almost certain that a corrupted apostle—the Herrscher—will be born!

Regarding the definition of Herrscher, although it has only experienced one Great Collapse, with the actions of the First Herrscher Welt on Anti-Entropy's side, Schicksal and other forces in the world that have some understanding of this have increasingly realized just how terrifying the so-called Herrscher really is!

Walter is on the side of humanity.

What if the next Herrscher stands on the side of the Honkai?

A Walter who disregards everything and destroys with all his might... the resulting catastrophe could be an unpredictable and enormous disaster!

Otto, however, knew more.

He knew that the current leader of Anti-Entropy was neither the first Acting Herrscher nor the first Welt.

While this Welt Young is troublesome enough, the previous Acting Herrscher even forced Otto to take drastic measures at one point!

First, they severely injured him, and then they launched Honkai Fission Bombs at the place he valued, forcing him to endure the bombardment despite his injuries, which ultimately led to his victory.

So when Otto heard Roland's words, even though he was capable of doing crazy things to achieve his goals, he couldn't help but frown and silently look at Roland.

"Correct."

It was Theresa who exclaimed in surprise, so Roland ignored Otto's gaze and looked at her, who had already jumped up.

“I have even created a Herrscher and chosen a location. Next, I will trigger a Great Collapse, thereby using the identity of the Archbishop of Schicksal that the guy who replaced Cecilia took from Otto, so that she will have to deal with this matter.”

"Then, in the process of handling this matter, I will try to force her to make as many moves as possible until I understand her specific situation, and then launch a targeted attack."

Hearing Roland say this, Otto nodded in understanding, but Theresa's brows furrowed even more deeply.

"What about the casualties caused by the Great Collapse? Are you going to ignore those casualties to test the enemy?"

Roland was not surprised that Theresa would raise such questions.

So he smiled at that moment.

"No casualties, there will be no casualties. I will not allow any casualties even on the side of the Valkyries of Destiny. I can guarantee that."

Oh?

Otto was somewhat surprised by Roland's answer, while Theresa looked up and met Roland's gaze.

"You guarantee it? What makes you think such an outrageous thing could actually happen?"

Despite Theresa's questioning, Roland's smile remained unchanged, and even though he noticed Otto's reaction, he showed no intention of looking away from Theresa.

Without the slightest hint of guilt, he seemed to be stating a truth.

"Just because..."

"I am the Honkai Will, or the Honkai God, as you define Honkai. Is that enough?"

...

Destiny Headquarters.

The Halloween Queen, assuming the identities of Cecilia and Archbishop of Schicksal, took full control of Schicksal. She then found some trustworthy individuals and temporarily assigned them some tasks. She herself rarely touched the Archbishop's work, except for very important matters or things that others could not handle.

But now she is looking at some documents very seriously.

"Wow, Amber left behind so much work... It seems it was a wise decision to broaden the Snow Wolf Squad and focus on intercepting Amber. She hasn't escaped Europe yet, so let's bring her back!"

The Queen muttered to herself, and after reading the parts she wanted to see, she casually tossed the rest of the documents, no matter how important, onto the table and simply ignored them.
