Honkai Impact, I'm not a Ditto!

The person in the lead was Sikong's old acquaintance—Otto.

"Long time no see, Major Sikong. I wonder how you've been these past few days?"

When the communication was connected, the first thing the Archbishop of Destiny said to Sikong was to greet him, which made everyone feel flattered.

Sikong glanced at the headmaster and, seeing the other looking at him with a gentle expression, he spoke up confidently: "Thank you for your concern, Lord Otto. I am doing very well at St. Freya Academy."

"Well, that's good." After saying that, Otto looked away and looked at Himeko Murata and the others. "Thank you all for your hard work on this mission, Valkyries. Please take your seats."

"Otto didn't laugh when he saw Kiana and the others' faces. His facial expressions are pretty well-controlled..."

Sikong muttered to himself.

Himeko Murata nodded and solemnly led Kiana and the others to sit down. She remained somewhat serious in front of Otto, her superior.

After all, the Far East branch has not yet become independent.

If she becomes independent, Himeko Murata definitely won't give Otto a second thought.

"Do you have anything to report regarding this Nine Nether Operation, Major Himeko?"

The first person to ask a question by the Archbishop of Destiny was Himeko Murata.

The red-haired mature woman stood up and reported, "This Nine Netherworld Operation was due to my command error. Not only did we fail to find the Natural Holy Mark, but we also lost the Xuanyuan Sword and were humiliated by the pseudo-Herrscher Yuno, bringing shame upon the Valkyrie."

“That’s true.” Otto changed the subject. “But you can’t be entirely blamed. Yuno is cunning and quite strong. Your defeat is to be expected.”

"Now I only have one question I want to ask you."

"Yuno... is she really suitable to be a friend of the Destiny Organization?"

Chapter 151 Friend or Enemy

On the Hyperion's control panel.

Several important figures from the Destiny Organization appeared on the giant screen.

Sikong looked at the familiar and unfamiliar faces, feeling a little surprised.

"Several important figures from the Destiny organization are present, making this seem like a rather important meeting, yet Otto chose to hold it in public. That's strange..."

Otto said, "You've had the most contact with Yuno, so I'd like to hear your opinions about her. Major Himeko, let's start with you."

“Yes, Lord Otto.” Himeko Murata nodded. She thought about Yuno’s actions over the past few days. “Although I’m a little reluctant to admit it, I have to say that, judging from her current behavior, Yuno has no ill intentions towards the Valkyries. Her attitude towards us is merely one of rejection.”

"I don't know why she's so resistant to this; maybe she just doesn't want to join any organization."

Upon hearing the red-haired woman's words, Otto paused for a moment and said, "So... Major Himeko means that Yuno can be a friend of Schicksal?"

"Yes, but I think it will be very difficult to make her a friend. Just finding her is extremely troublesome, let alone getting her to willingly join the Destiny Organization."

The Hyperion has been scanning the outside of the behemoth Chiyou, trying to find the pseudo-Herrscher Yuno.

But it's still like this now.

Not even the slightest fluctuation of a pseudo-Herrscher was observed.

Himeko Murata believes that Yuno has already left.

This statement was unanimously accepted.

after all......

This isn't the first time something like this has happened.

On two separate occasions, Yuno escaped from the search by the Destiny Organization.

One more time wouldn't be unacceptable.

“I think coexisting peacefully with Yuno is also a viable option.”

"Well, Major Himeko, please sit down. Lieutenant Kiana, what are your thoughts?"

Otto asked them one by one.

Kiana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya shared similar opinions with Himeko Murata.

Although everyone was angry at being tricked by Yuno, no one truly hated her to the core. On the contrary, they felt a sense of gratitude for the fact that this pseudo-Herrscher had spared their lives.

The mission failed.

Himeko Murata and the others blamed themselves for all the mistakes.

“I understand your thoughts. Yuno, as a pseudo-Herrscher, hasn't caused any damage to human society; she's even appeared on the front lines against the Honkai. She's indeed more suitable as a friend, and I agree with your idea.” Otto crossed his arms and rested them on his chin. “However…”

Suddenly, Otto changed the subject.

His tone quickly turned cold.

"As for what you say—that peaceful coexistence with Yuno is absolutely impossible—she will either join Schicksal or be destroyed by Schicksal."

"Lord Otto, wouldn't this push Yuno towards collapse? Or reverse entropy?"

Himeko Murata frowned slightly.

Otto gave a soft hum.

"Does it matter? Major Himeko, don't forget that Yuno took the Xuanyuan Sword from you. This has already touched the interests of the Destiny Organization, and once it happens, it will definitely happen again."

"Are we, the Destiny Organization, going to keep backing down?"

"That's absolutely impossible."

After listening to Otto's words, the Hyperion fell silent; what he said made a lot of sense.

Human desires are endless.

The proverb "to take an inch and then a mile" perfectly illustrates this point.

Sikong couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Today I'll cede five cities, tomorrow ten, and then I can get a night's rest..."

"Moreover... haven't you noticed? You were already lying in ambush in the Nine Netherworld, but only the people of Destiny and Anti-Entropy know about the Nine Netherworld."

As soon as Otto finished speaking, Himeko Murata retorted, "Yuno shouldn't be a member of the Anti-Entropy organization."

"Yes, I also think she isn't, so... how did Yuno find out about Jiuyou and lay in ambush in advance?"

Sikong blinked, realizing that something was wrong.

Otto is a bit too perceptive.

"Bishop, do you mean... there's a spy for Yuno in our Far East branch?"

Theresa is Otto's nominal granddaughter, but she addresses him as Bishop in a somewhat distant manner.

Sikong remained silent.

Speaking rashly at this time would be too much of an eyesore; he'd better remain a neutral third wheel to avoid getting burned.

Otto smiled.

"It's also possible that Yuno is a spy in our Schicksal headquarters or Anti-Entropy."

"The bishop is joking. With such good security measures at the Destiny headquarters, there's absolutely no way there could be any spies."

Theresa shook her head, but Otto disagreed: "That's not necessarily true. I used to think that the only organization in the world that could stand up to Destiny was Anti-Entropy. But recently I discovered another hidden organization, and it turns out that this organization is connected to Sikong."

Upon hearing this, Sikong, who had been silent, was suddenly silenced.

Suddenly thrust into the spotlight, all eyes were on him, like searchlights focused on a trash can.

Now Sikong had no choice but to speak.

"Lord Otto, you've been wronged... I am utterly loyal to St. Freya..."

“No… I don’t suspect you of being a spy. I just discovered that your identity is related to that organization hiding behind the scenes. Perhaps your abnormal constitution and amnesia are caused by them.” Otto raised his hand, signaling Sikong to calm down. “If I have the opportunity, I will investigate thoroughly.”

"Oh, I see... Lord Otto, you scared me to death."

Sikong breathed a sigh of relief; he had thought his identity as a World Serpent spy had been exposed.

That would be truly disastrous.

Otto looked around.

"To infiltrate Anti-Entropy or Schicksal, there must be a powerful organization behind it. Perhaps Yuno has already joined the mysterious organization, so... she is most likely our enemy, just not showing her fangs yet."

"Based on the current intelligence analysis, Yuno likes to hang out in the Far East. I must remind you, if you encounter Yuno again, please do not hold back."

"Either capture her or kill her. There is no third option. Do you all understand?"

The Archbishop of Destiny has issued the order.

The Valkyries of the Far East branch simply obeyed.

After some discussion, Yuno's identity was blacklisted by the Destiny Organization.

The World Serpent, which has been hiding behind the scenes, seems to have been caught by Otto. Before Kevin emerges from the Sea of ​​Quanta, they probably don't want to have any conflict with the Destiny Organization.

The world serpent, which has been hiding its head and tail, will likely remain hidden even deeper in the days to come.

This is a good thing.

Sikong didn't want the World Snake to keep bothering him.

Don't come looking for me again; I'm afraid St. Freya Academy will misunderstand.

Chapter 152 A Place Where Birds Don't Shit

The Nine Netherworld Incident has now come to an end.

Himeko Murata and the others didn't make a wasted trip.

Before the Hyperion departed, it specifically sent Valkyries to explore the depths of the heart of the Chi You behemoth, where they found a metal sphere, which was a terminal recording the technology of a pre-civilization.

These items are usually handed over to Otto for recycling.

But this time, Theresa secretly retrieved the terminal without Otto's knowledge.

This thing is not activated yet. In the original story, if Fu Hua accidentally touches it, it will turn into a weapon that can release the three elements of lightning, fire, and ice.

Theresa called it the Book of Azure.

Sikong knew about this, but he didn't have time to rush to the heart of the giant beast Chiyou.
