Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

The fact that the two were transferred out of St. Freya gave Anti-Entropy an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

"Damn it, how long will it take to get back to St. Freya?"

“At least an hour and a half, Lady Theresa.”

"What about the Valkyries stationed near the Far East?"

"The nearest Valkyrie unit will take half an hour."

“…”

Looking at the image on the wall, Theresa bit her lower lip.

Ziyao's words from last night are still vivid in my mind. Since she knew that anti-entropy might invade, why didn't she just say so?

"Principal, success depends on human effort; I am merely an observer."

"The truth doesn't affect what's happening today, and you know that in your heart."

Defenses will always have a day when they weaken. Rather than being constantly on someone's mind, it's better to defeat the opponent and teach them a lesson.

Ziyao's meaning was simple: even if she told the truth, Theresa might not believe her.

Since the other party dared to make a move, they must have made relevant preparations.

Therefore, the events of today will not change much.

Theresa's pupils contracted, and she immediately understood what Ziyao meant.

"I'm sorry, I should have trusted you more..."

[Ding! Theresa has solved the riddle and received 300 Crystals (+0%)]

She clenched her fists. "But stop training now, take Mei to a safe place, and I'll be right back."

“Miss Nightingale, Lady Theresa is right. I think we shouldn’t confront her head-on now.”

Rita stepped forward and said that on the monitor screen, the simulated training ground still looked harmonious, but this was only the calm before the storm.

"The twelfth round of simulation begins."

Ziyao did not heed Theresa's advice and chose to continue the test.

As soon as the words were spoken, the final Honkai Beast was simulated in front of each Valkyrie being tested.

"Hey, Anti-Entropy is attacking! It's dangerous to stay here!"

"When a general is in the field, he may disobey the emperor's orders; he should simply let things take their natural course."

Ziyao simply hung up the phone, which made Theresa stomp her feet in anger.

"Damn it, I'm definitely going to fire her when I get back!"

"Lady Theresa, things may not be that simple."

Looking at the school's surveillance cameras, Rita seemed to be deep in thought.

Since it's an intrusion, why not block the surveillance instead of letting them see the footage?

As a company whose core competitiveness lies in technology, Anti-Entropy has no reason to make such a mistake.

When she voiced her guess, Theresa's complaints subsided considerably, and she looked up and stared at everything on the monitor.

"brush---"

A flash of light, and the final test was successfully passed.

Mei sheathed her sword and let out a long breath.

She could clearly feel that she was making rapid progress, and the vague constraints in her heart had inexplicably disappeared.

It must be thanks to Teacher Nightingale; I am truly grateful.

"Nightingale teacher, how was my performance!?"

Kiana arrived in front of Ziyao first, excitedly saying, "I'm sure I'll get a high score in the practical test."

"Congratulations, you're the first person in history to beat every Honkai Beast to a pulp."

The girl, oblivious to the half-praise, half-disparagement in the words, put her hands on her hips and said, "Hmph, if academic exams were Honkai Beasts, I'd beat them to a pulp!"

"Ahem, everyone did a great job."

Ziyao coughed twice and took a step back.

"Well then, this is the thirteenth test. Good luck!"

After he finished speaking, several anti-entropy mechs walked in from nearby.

Everyone assumed they were test programs, but Bronya noticed something was off.

Realizing that her score was close to Bronya's, Kiana was eager to try again; this time, she wanted to be second.

Immediately afterwards, the girls became physically integrated with the mechs.

In the New Zealand command center,

Cocolia looked confused, unable to figure out what this strange teacher was thinking.

Why are these entropy-reversing mechs letting the students continue fighting instead of evacuating them immediately? What are they up to?

"Lady Cocolia, everything is ready. They have no way to escape."

Students using erasers as communicators piloted Godfather mechs and surrounded the training ground.

"Hurry up, 'leader'. I have a bad feeling."

Cocolia said in a deep voice.

Back on the training field.

The girls each solved their mecha problems, but two students had to temporarily stop testing due to exhaustion, and Mei helped them out.

"Strange, this lump of iron is so hard. Is the program simulation really that realistic?"

"Let's team up and smash a mech," Kiana remarked.

"Kiana, be careful, the enemy's reaction is increasing."

The Heavy Bunny unleashed its full power, destroying the mechs and damaging the training ground facilities in the process.

Theresa felt a pang of pain; these expenses were no small sum.

Wait, where is Teacher Nightingale going?

Although the training ground was surrounded, it had relatively good places to defend and hide, while outside were all Anti-Entropy mechs.

In total, there should be around thirty units. Anti-Entropy has really gone all out this time.

Upon closer inspection of the surveillance footage, it was discovered that Nightingale, who should have been in the same spot, was missing.

The girl walks along the school path, with Anti-Entropy mechs standing on both sides of the road.

Seeing her swaggering around, the mechs were momentarily at a loss, unsure whether to attack.

As if nothing was there, the girl strolled to the school gate.

The weather was lovely today, sunny and breezy, but the academy was in complete disarray.

A blue-haired young man, dressed in a long robe, with trembling bandages on his hands and a toothpick in his mouth, walked in with a leisurely gait.

He ignored Ziyao and walked forward on his own.

"That woman, Cocolia, actually made me do such a lowly thing. It's just arresting someone."

As he thought about it, his pace gradually quickened.

Before they had taken two steps, suddenly, a salted fish sword was plunged into the cement ground in front of them.

"Mr. Walter, please wait a moment."

The girl spoke, and a gentle breeze slowly lifted her ink-black hair.

Volume 1: Chapter 48 Do you know how long Seele knelt before her?

The Hyperion.

"The Lawyer of Reason?"

Looking at the blue-haired youth on the monitor, Theresa couldn't believe it.

Unlike the Welt I remembered, the detector showed that he possessed the power of a Herrscher.

Unexpectedly, Nightingale's departure was not for refuge, but to intercept the most dangerous Herrscher.

"Full engine speed, get back to the Far East as quickly as possible."

Theresa commanded, "This is too reckless! Going head-on against a Herrscher is like throwing an egg against a rock!"

"Lady Theresa, please have some tea."

"Now, we can only place our hopes on everyone in the academy."

Even with the engine overloaded, it would still take half an hour to get back to the Far East.

The other side isn't blocking the signal; they're probably certain they won't be able to come back.

Perhaps... there are other hidden reasons behind this?

Rita saw Ziyao's reflection in her eyes; the girl stood beside the mecha in the surveillance footage.

"Mr. Walter, please wait a moment."

While dealing with dozens of mechs is difficult, the biggest problem is undoubtedly this one.

"You dare block my way? You want to die?"

"Spit out the toothpick," Vayte said unhappily.

The girl in front of him was so ordinary, even frail, without even the Valkyrie's marks.

"I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous. I apologize."

"I admire you greatly, the great hero who saved London."

"Ever since I first read your story as a child, I have longed to meet you and admire your brilliance."

Ziyao feigned flattery, ignoring the enormous mecha beside her.
