Scrolling through short videos and seeing embarrassing moments, has even the Mi Home ecosystem broke

Compared to everyone's focus on the Counter's persecution of Bronya, Otto inside Schicksal Headquarters was clearly focused on something else entirely—

"My old friend, the Crimson Iris Immortal..."

"The Lawgiver of Knowledge, huh... Interesting."

Although in Otto's plan, the moment Fu Hua attacked Sirin at Schicksal headquarters wearing the God-Slaying Armor—Shadow Knight: Moonlit Blade—she had already sentenced her old friend to death.

However, since Fu Hua became the Herrscher of Knowledge in the future...

No, it's that the Herrscher of Knowledge became Fu Hua, and provided Kiana with sufficient power for her growth.

Therefore, Fu Hua still has value.

but……

Did my future self kill Fu Hua, thus allowing her to accelerate Kiana's growth?

Otto needs to confirm this within the light screen to avoid any future changes caused by letting Fu Hua go.

Otto narrowed his eyes, focusing his attention on Kiana, who had become the Herrscher of Fire in the image.

"Defeat the Herrscher of Domination..."

"Kiana, who can control four Herrscher Gems... should be enough."

Being able to wield the greatsword that held four gems, he was certain that Kiana's strength had grown enough to enter the third phase of his plan.

Although the process deviated somewhat from his plan, as long as he ultimately achieved his goal... that was enough.

"Kallen... the day of your resurrection is coming..."

Hope ignited in Otto's eyes. Over the past five hundred years, he had experienced countless exciting moments of hope, only to have each one end in disappointment.

This time, it seems, is the closest he has ever come to success.

Five hundred years have already passed, so he can afford to wait a few more days.

But... he was genuinely eager to see the future where Karen would live on.

Then, the next title appeared on the light screen.

Chapter 74 Beware of Telecommunications Fraud

The title preview at the end of the previous chapter was wrong; it was supposed to be a preview of some old-fashioned stuff to fool the naive.

[Shenzhou Shangxian reminds you to beware of telecom fraud]

--------

While everyone was comforting Bronya, Mei was caught in a dilemma—

"And me? Where are my jewels?"

Mei was puzzled; why wasn't her Herrscher of Thunder power appearing in the light screen?

Why didn't the Conquest Gem, which contains the power of the Herrscher of Thunder, appear on Kiana's greatsword?

Theresa, Bronya, Fu Hua, and Himeko all appeared beside Kiana, but Mei was the only one who did not show up.

Where was she at that time, and why couldn't she help Kiana?

This made Mei particularly concerned. When everyone was fighting side by side, the scene where she was the only one missing made Mei feel quite uneasy.

Although Bronya is in a bad mood in the scene, at least she's standing next to Kiana.

Just as Mei was feeling uneasy, new content appeared on the light screen.

[Shenzhou Shangxian reminds you to beware of telecom fraud]

With the appearance of this subtitle, the reason why Mei did not appear on screen was also explained.

........................

The scene on the light screen rewound slightly, returning to the moment when Bronya and Fu Hua had just invaded the Herrscher of Domination's Theater of Domination.

At that time, Kiana was still fighting against Sirin, while Bronya and Fu Hua invaded the theater of domination.

However, the two who originally came to find Kiana ended up encountering the host of this place—

A thousand-person law-abiding scholar.

"Hmph, the host we've been using is on the verge of death. Can you really just stand by and watch him die like this?"

"If you make any rash moves, we will kill the host immediately!"

The thousand-strong Herrscher ruthlessly used the humans they housed as hostages, forcing Bronya and Fu Hua to refrain from any rash actions.

This is the most common characteristic of Herrschers, beings born with the purpose of destroying human civilization.

Indifferent, cruel, cold-blooded, and despicable.

The appearance of Herrschers like Mei who can find their true selves is a miracle; under normal circumstances, Herrschers are just that terrifying.

Faced with such a difficult situation, Bronya frowned and looked at Fu Hua beside her.

"In order to deal with the Thousand Herrschers without harming the lives of their hosts, we must use the power of Feather Dust."

"But...you no longer have Yu Duchen."

…………

"Yu Duchen?"

Is it the same feather we saw before?

When those three words came out of Bronya's mouth, those who had been focused on Kiana becoming the Herrscher of Fire and hadn't noticed Fu Hua's otherworldly demeanor also came to their senses.

"Squad leader, what's that? Is it your secret weapon?"

Amidst the curious gazes of the crowd, Fu Hua wiped away her sweat, never expecting that what she had secretly worried about would still happen.

Everyone noticed the feather dust she displayed and realized more about the unusual nature of her identity.

To Fu Hua's surprise, Bronya in the scene actually brought up the matter of Feather Dust, which seemed to indicate that she would reveal her identity to everyone at some point in the future.

Because the time wasn't right and explaining it would be too complicated, Fu Hua didn't reveal everything but instead gave a brief explanation of the power of the Feather Dust.

"It's a divine key that influences the spiritual world, memory, and consciousness."

Upon hearing this explanation, the students of St. Freya Academy suddenly realized why the Herrscher of Knowledge was born in Fu Hua; it turned out that the Divine Key she possessed was linked to memory and consciousness.

Theresa frowned, feeling as if she had seen that crimson feather somewhere, at some crucial moment.

She always felt as if she had been influenced by Yu Duchen, especially when she heard that the Key of God could affect consciousness, memory, and spirit.

However, the image on the light screen didn't give Theresa much time to think. Soon, Fu Hua blurted out a sentence:

“I do not possess the Feather Crossing Dust, but those who understand the Laws do.”

Thus, the light screen displayed a dialogue between Fu Hua and the Herrscher of Knowledge in order to rescue the host held hostage by the Herrscher of Domination.

"Hmph, what does your desire for victory have to do with me?"

The Herrscher of Knowledge clearly overheard Bronya and Fu Hua's conversation, and took the initiative to challenge them, letting out a cold snort to express her firm refusal.

However, Fu Hua was clearly well-prepared, displaying a persuasive skill that was beyond the imagination of everyone at St. Freya Academy:

"I know... Kiana has rejected you before, but you also know she's not a bad person."

"We need you, and I need you too."

Kiana's denial that you are Fu Hua is not because she dislikes you, but quite the opposite, because she believes you are an independent person, a unique soul.

"I've always wanted to tell you this, Kiana, and I—we all want you back."

………………

Inside St. Freya Academy, Kiana, Mei, Bronya, Theresa, and Himeko all looked at Fu Hua with strange eyes, as if they were seeing her for the first time.

Could those mushy words, those words that sound like they're being used to coax a child, really come out of the mouth of this serious and rigid class monitor?

Although they didn't know Fu Hua's intentions, they roughly guessed that Fu Hua was deceiving the Herrscher of Knowledge.

This is the kind of shrewd, seasoned approach they take. Is this really the Fu Hua they know?

Fu Hua blushed slightly at the suspicious looks from everyone and coughed lightly to indicate that he was being questioned.

After all, she is a warrior who has lived from the previous civilization to the present. There is a saying in China, "All warfare is based on deception," so she must have accumulated some experience.

Although Fu Hua herself didn't think she was saying those words in the video, the situation seemed urgent at the time, so it's understandable that she would do that.

........................

In the scene, after Fu Hua gave the Herrscher of Knowledge a kind and gentle persuasion, the Herrscher of Knowledge was indeed very pleased with this way of speaking.

Fu Hua's affirmation and kindness towards her were clearly not perceived as Fu Hua's true intentions by the newly born Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Hmph...it seems you are indeed a bit better at talking than the other wooden figures."

The attitude of the law keeper finally softened somewhat, and there was a hint of relenting in his words.

The next moment, in the blink of an eye!

Fu Hua seized the opportunity when the Herrscher of Knowledge was off guard and snatched the power away on the spot!

Her gray hair turned into a blanket of white snow, while a single strand of red hair burned bright red!

[Shenzhou Shangxian reminds you to beware of telecom fraud]

Is this what the title refers to as "telecom fraud"?

………………

"A Celestial Immortal from the Divine Land...?"

"Squad leader, you..."

The students of St. Freya Academy felt as if they had discovered something extraordinary, staring in utter astonishment at Fu Hua's peculiar posture on the screen.
