Do you think this world is serious?

Even sending the "legendary scout" Anila couldn't find a single clue about Claire and Flora.

These two prime ministers seemed extremely reluctant to reveal their whereabouts, as if they were certain that if they were exposed, they would be subjected to a fierce assassination attempt.

After much deliberation, Chen Xiuming ultimately decided against having either Kiana or Alaya-vijnana search for Claire and Flora.

If Kiana or Alaya-vijnana were to search for the two, it would inevitably attract their attention, thus causing Chen Xiuming and even the Huang Kingdom to become targets of public criticism.

Although Chen Xiuming was not afraid of the siege by Zakshield and Jormungandr, he would inevitably find it very troublesome, and at least his ordinary life would be a thing of the past.

"Master, do Claire and Flora really exist, meow?"

Anila lay in the moonlight, nestled in Chen Xiuming's arms, asking him in a tone that seemed both comfortable and questioning.

"Of course it exists, otherwise how could Zakshield and Jormungandr have suppressed the Kingdom of Huang to this extent?"

Chen Xiuming was very certain of this.

With the wisdom and strategy of the Sage King, Zakshir and Jormungandr would have no chance against the offensive of the Kingdom of Radiance.

Even if there were talented individuals with intelligence and strategy comparable to the Sage King, they could only achieve a stalemate, not suppress the Huang Kingdom as they have done now.

Anila was skeptical. Although she didn't understand why Chen Xiuming was so certain, she was a carefree cat and didn't care about such things.

Chen Xiuming, Cecilia, and Yuexia Chuyong strolled around Zakshire for a long time, buying a lot of Zakshire specialties, and then disappeared into a quiet alley, as if they had vanished into thin air.

That night, messages about Chen Xiuming and others flew into Zakshield's council hall, eventually ending up in the hands of a beautiful young woman with black hair and red eyes, wearing a wide, wine-red cloak.

The girl's long black hair was tied into two pigtails of varying lengths, and there was a bright red heart pattern under her left eye, which added to her charm and allure.

Although she was wearing a large, wine-red cloak, the girl's clothes were mainly black, with a short dress accented with red. Her left leg was covered in black stockings, while her right leg was covered in black and white checkered over-the-knee socks.

Whether it's the unevenly long pigtails or the completely mismatched stockings, they're enough to drive someone with OCD crazy, yet she manages to pull off a messy, chaotic beauty.

"Appearing in the country without warning, and then disappearing without warning..."

"Interesting, visitors from other worlds..."

The girl's voice, as she talked to herself, echoed endlessly in the empty council hall.

Although she only collected information about Chen Xiuming and others' activities in Zakshir, the girl had already deduced a lot of information based on that.

For example, Chen Xiuming and others came from Huang Kingdom, or they were searching for her location.

"Um……"

The girl made a soft nasal sound, as if deep in thought, "Since they actively sought me out, it means they must know me, or at least know something about me, but I have absolutely no recollection of them..."

With the girl's extraordinary wisdom, she quickly grasped most of the truth and even determined that it was her involvement in the war between the three countries that had attracted the attention of Chen Xiuming and others.

Furthermore, she was certain that Chen Xiuming and the others were not only looking for her, but also for her good-for-nothing sister.

"At least a Herrscher, and very likely someone above the Herrscher level..."

"Well……"

"Having already possessed the strength to 'overcome all obstacles with force,' most schemes will be like rootless duckweed, unable to play a significant role."

"so……"

"Even if we can't be a help, we can't push her towards Flora's side..."

The young girl's eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if she were quite troubled.

Those who excel in strategy and possess exceptional intelligence despise those who have the power to overturn all schemes and tricks.

If there is an opponent of similar strength, that's actually fine. With some strategic maneuvering, they can restrain each other, or even fight to the death.

But the current situation is that there are no beings in this world with strength comparable to Chen Xiuming and the others, and there isn't even a single being who is suspected of being a Herrscher.

To be precise, there are Herrschers in this world bubble, but they are not native to this world bubble; rather, they are her and her good-for-nothing sister.

As "Herrschers," she and her sister are extremely abnormal. Apart from their inhuman intelligence, they only have slightly better physical constitutions than ordinary people, and they have no other special characteristics or Herrscher powers.

In other words, neither she nor her sister possessed any combat ability and were not at all like "Herrschers".

It's worth mentioning that although the sisters don't have combat abilities, the level of Honkai energy within them is no different from that of a regular Herrscher. However, because they lack Herrscher powers, they cannot use Honkai energy normally.

Once they master the method of using Honkai energy, the sisters will be able to unleash superhuman power.

Unfortunately, they have yet to encounter a complete system for utilizing Honkai energy, resulting in low efficiency in their self-deduction and a significant amount of time and energy being wasted on trial and error.

Using nations and armies to "play against each other" is also a form of calculation and deduction, which helps the sisters to deduce a Honkai energy utilization system suitable for themselves.

After a period of experimentation, the girl's Honkai energy utilization system has begun to take shape.

Without any extraordinary encounters or accidents, it would take her quite some time to perfect it completely.

As for my sister...

Since they never contacted each other, the girl had no idea how things were progressing on the other side.

"My worthless little sister..."

"Don't disappoint me. Don't wait until I'm almost completely perfected before you've just figured out a Honkai energy utilization system that suits you."

The girl's voice echoed in the council hall, eventually fading into the empty silence, leaving only the rustling sound of turning pages.

Chapter 234 Manager Vita and the Apocalypse Idol Group.

Even when sisters are separated by distance, they share a mysterious and unspoken understanding.

The older sister in Zakshield is investigating Chen Xiuming while also thinking about her younger sister far away, while the younger sister in Jormungandr is also investigating matters related to Chen Xiuming.

However, compared to her older sister, the younger sister appears to be rather "dull" and is unable to deduce most of the information from a small part like her sister.

Even if she is "stupid" than her sister, that is only relative to her sister. When facing ordinary people, she is still exceptionally intelligent.

Furthermore, unlike her sister, the younger sister holds all the power in Jormungandr, rather than just the key powers held by her sister.

Although nominally only the prime minister, he was practically no different from the ruler of a country. The king of Jormungandr was like a puppet, manipulated by his sister.

Looking at the brief information gathered by her subordinates, the younger sister fell into deep thought.

"If it were the older sister, what would she do?"

"The general approach is to try and win them over, or at the very least, to keep them neutral..."

"I am weaker than my sister in terms of strategy. If I want to surpass her, I must seek the help of 'outsiders'."

"In that case, there's only one way..."

The light, ethereal sound echoed gently in the quiet room.

The younger sister is well aware of her own abilities and knows that it would be difficult for her to surpass her older sister. The current evenly matched situation is entirely the result of the older sister's deliberate actions.

Therefore, if one wants to defeat her older sister, she has no choice but to take a risky and aggressive approach in order to win the battle.

Compared to her sister's "conservative strategy," she could only resort to a radical strategy after much deliberation.

First, find out the other party's attitude. If they are on the side of Huang Kingdom, then sign a treaty of mutual support with Huang Kingdom.

If the other party doesn't care about Huangguo, then we should do everything we can to win them over to our side, and we are willing to accept any cost for it.

Whether it's the former or the latter, after gathering accurate information, she would personally travel to the Huang Kingdom to highlight the importance she placed on it.

"Sister, this time—I will definitely beat you!"

……

At this moment, Chen Xiuming had already returned to his residence in Huang Kingdom with Cecilia and Yuexia Chuyong.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse watched numerous videos about idols and then debuted as idols under the name "Ding Tianqi," with Vita as their manager.

Vita showed great interest in serving as "manager" and even declared that she would cultivate "Apocalypse Idols" into the best and most popular idol group.

It is worth mentioning that Vita had never been involved in anything related to "idols" before.

In other words, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are "newbies," and Vita is also a "newbie."

If it weren't for the fact that the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse had such a strong foundation, Chen Xiuming would have been genuinely worried that they would "die before they even had a chance to make their mark."

With the idol auditions fast approaching, Vita and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have been preparing their "debut live" performance as their entry for the auditions.

On the contrary, Wendy had nothing to do with idols, and Chen Xiuming didn't take her to other countries, so she stayed at home and spaced out every day.

I seem to have become obsessed with video games lately, and I spend all my time playing them in my room when I'm home alone.

The only strange thing was that her gaze toward Chen Xiuming became increasingly odd, giving off a sense of "ravenous hunger".

Alaya consciousness behaves like a "robot." When Chen Xiuming is not at home, she sits quietly on the sofa, with magic circles flashing across her palm from time to time, as if she is deduce new transcendental magic.

She had already mastered all the research tasks that Chen Xiuming had arranged for her, but she only used them when implanting a perfectly matched stigmata into Himeko. There was no other use for them, so she turned to deduce super-level magic as an "entertainment project" to pass the time.

"Welcome home."

Alaya consciousness was the first to notice that Chen Xiuming had arrived home and was waiting at the entrance.

As soon as Chen Xiuming opened the door, what came into view was the Alaya consciousness with its wings fluttering slightly at its waist.

Reaching out, she gently patted Alaya-vijnana's head, fulfilling her desire for praise, and then asked, "Has Vita and the others not returned yet?"

"The mission 'Debut LIVE' is not yet complete. It is expected to end in half an hour."

The way Alaya-vijnana speaks remains the same, but Chen Xiuming can still understand what Alaya-vijnana wants to express.

"They won't be back for another half hour..."

Chen Xiuming nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "Where's Wendy?"

"The Herrscher 'Wendy' is playing a GalGame. Alaya consciousness has informed you of your return home."

"There's no need for that..."

This was the first time Chen Xiuming had learned about the type of games Wendy played, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Games can indeed be very addictive, but he never expected Wendy to be addicted to GalGames.

Recalling the strange look Wendy gave him, Chen Xiuming finally understood why Wendy had looked at him that way.

Cecilia was familiar with GalGames, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, but didn't say anything more.

She understood her husband's charm very well, especially after refining the Miracle Stone, Chen Xiuming had acquired a wonderfully unique aura that made people unable to resist becoming captivated by him.

"Honey, why don't you go and win Wendy over soon?"
