As expected, Kujo Sara fell silent after hearing Liu Bai's explanation.
Although this line of thinking goes against a warrior's intuition, rationally speaking... it does seem to be true.
"But the Herrscher..."
"We can cooperate with the Valkyries. Although Schicksal is somewhat targeting me, who do you think I and the Herrschers will fight first?"
"The Herrscher."
Kujo Sara's answer this time was very decisive.
"Although you pose a potential threat, you are ultimately just a potential one."
To put it bluntly, no matter how exaggerated it is, Liu Bai's main crime is still "fabricated".
You're talking about the dark forest and letting wolves into the house, but those are all just speculations. It's normal for excessive indoctrination of a sense of crisis to trigger the "unfounded" side of human nature.
But the problem is, there's a truly guilty thing standing next to us.
Furthermore, Kujo Sara doesn't believe that the Valkyrie is a bully who preys on the weak, and that she would target Liu Bai because of some reason that "she really is a Herrscher".
Come on, you Herrscher, right? We Valkyries are here to take down those damn Herrschers!
The advantage of experienced players mentoring new ones is that each generation of Herrschers annoys the others, especially since the second Honkai Impact 3rd was less than 20 years ago, and the current generation of Valkyries are generally only seventeen or eighteen years old.
The upcoming assault team is actually composed of Valkyries from the Second Honkai Impact...
Lawyer and Liu Bai.
Kujo Sara thought about it for a moment. Given the nature of those Valkyries, if Otto ordered them to abandon the Herrscher and go after Liu Bai, they might very well mutiny...
Anyway, if we really have to say, the Valkyries aren't without places to go, and Anti-Entropy is an excellent option.
Even if it were her own general giving her such an order, she would still mutter to herself.
She adheres to the belief that "the general's will is far-reaching and cannot be fathomed by ordinary people," but at the same time she also knows that the Herrscher is the enemy of the Iron Humans.
Okay, special cases can be treated specially—but this thing is definitely not something that can be treated specially.
So it actually seems quite safe?
"...Please allow me to discuss this with headquarters later."
Kujo Sara has been persuaded, but she cannot give a direct answer.
"Do you two have anything else to discuss?"
"Night Orchid?"
Liu Bai looked at Ye Lan, who shrugged.
She originally planned to just throw on a coat and run away, but who knew they'd end up chatting for so long.
What could possibly happen to her?
"Then I'm fine too."
Liu Bai, Huang Quan, and Ye Lan all got up and left.
Before leaving, Liu Bai first saw Ye Lan off, and then looked at Huang Quan.
"Speaking of which... Huang Quan, is there something you're trying to say?"
"I?"
Huang Quan was taken aback, seemingly unaware of Liu Bai's keen perception.
"Well, I do have something to say, but this world is different from the world I'm familiar with, so my suggestions probably won't be very relevant."
"This statement makes people more concerned."
"You just need to move forward."
Huang Quan's tone remained as calm as ever.
"The possibility within you... a hero? No... not that, it should be... a savior?"
"This is really a huge burden... but as a player, the goal is indeed to complete the game."
"No, it's not flattery to the point of harm, but rather that you truly possess that potential."
Huang Quan lowered his eyes slightly, seemingly looking at the long sword at his waist.
"A person who sacrifices everything to achieve victory is not worthy of being called a savior."
Chapter 89 Saving Private Yelan - Act Two!
That's what I said, but I still feel a sense of pressure...
"...It's okay, you just need to do what you need to do now."
Huang Quan probably realized that even if he didn't have that thought, his words still put some pressure on Liu Bai, so he ended the conversation in a calm tone.
"That's a much simpler way to put it. It's getting late, I'm going to cook dinner."
"Ah."
Liu Bai and Huang Quan returned to the house and took out a few more fish from the pot to start preparing dinner.
Not long after, Natasha also came home from get off work.
"Ah, good evening, bro."
"Welcome... Oh, Kiana's here too?"
"Ha... I'm here to freeload a meal."
Kiana followed Natasha listlessly, yawning.
"That old woman... is absolutely insane."
Old woman? You dare say that... Oh, well, Kiana might actually dare to say that to Mebius's face.
When Natasha heard this, she just looked up at the sky, as if she hadn't heard anything at all.
"Now that you mention it, I'm quite curious about the details of your experiment, Kiana."
Liu Bai showed an expression of interest.
Mebius said he would help solve Sirin's problem, but it was clearly not something that could be solved by simply taking a knife.
"Today I fought a really weird monster that looked like a lobster from your underground world, and neither of us won—don't you have a lot of strange snakes and weird things in your world?"
Something that looks like a lobster? Ah... it should be Tonatiu, right?
The Quantum Sea creatures captured by the World Serpent have average combat power in the storyline, but their combat power in the game is rather disgusting.
"I don't know either, even if you ask me."
Liu Bai shrugged. Anyway, World Serpent has always had good control over captured creatures, and he has never seen anything like a containment breach.
"Tonight's dinner is fish soup and fried fish."
“It’s all fish…V…I” Qi Ya Bana sniffed the fragrance of the forest, uttered a few words, and then swallowed hard, her body behaving very obediently. “Eh? Wait? Liu Bai, you…”
Kiana, who was just about to go into the kitchen to see if she could sneak a bite, was immediately stunned when she saw Liu Bai's clothes.
"Where did you get those clothes from?!"
"Ok?"
Natasha, who had just gone straight back to her room and taken off her pants to change into her pajamas, was also drawn in by Kiana's words.
clothing?
What could Liu Bai possibly have in his clothes...?
"..."
Wait! Why are you wearing Yelan's clothes?!
"Huh? Clothes? Oh... it seems like this isn't really suitable to wear while cooking."
Liu Bai suddenly remembered that the clothes were fluffy and might easily get covered in cooking fumes.
"It's not a matter of suitability!"
Natasha ran out with her legs bare, not even having time to change out of her pajamas.
"But it's you who..."
Ye Lan's white silk robe was visibly valuable.
Well, Natasha doesn't have much expertise in appraising antiques, but that doesn't stop her from judging the value of things with the most basic eye.
For example, things that look beautiful at first glance are usually not cheap.
The fur used as the main material for the white silk flying robe is of such a level that you can imagine its smooth and soft feel just by looking at it.
How did this thing end up on you?
Although Ye Lan is not a stingy person, she wouldn't just give away her personal clothes so easily, would she?
Natasha even doubted whether Yelan could produce another garment of the same quality.
Upon realizing this, Natasha rushed into Liu Bai's room.
"...?"
Huang Quan, who was leaning against the headboard reading a book, glanced at Natasha as she entered the room with a puzzled look.
Hello, is there anything I can help you with?
"..."
No, who is this person?
Why is there another woman I don't know next to Liu Bai?
He even let this woman lie on his bed so casually.
And... why does this person seem so difficult to deal with at first glance?
"Who...are you?"
"Guard."
Huang Quan's tone was so matter-of-fact that Natasha didn't know how to react.
No, you, as a bodyguard, are so casual about going to bed with someone?
And your outfit, how short are those hot pants?
You might as well not wear any at all!
Are you a legitimate bodyguard?
If Natasha hadn't sensed the difficult aura emanating from the other person, she would have been cursing.
"?"
Huang Quan looked at Natasha, who was standing still, with a puzzled expression, and then took the opportunity to sized her up.
While she doesn't discriminate against unconventional clothing, isn't it a bit... a bit too much to be completely naked from the waist down, wearing only underwear?
Could this be one of the customs of this planet?
Even if she were to judge, her aesthetic sense is somewhat strange.
If I heard correctly, the man just called her "sister"...
Hmm... in what sense is she an older sister?
"Is there anything else?"
"...No, that's all."
Natasha felt deeply that communicating with the other person might be troublesome.
After sniffing around and finding no strange smells in the room, he turned and left.
Did I do something strange?
Huang Quan observed the other party's behavior and revealed a thoughtful expression.
But... something's strange? Is it because I'm lying in bed?
