Honkai Impact, I'm not a Ditto!

If both legs were implanted with the Desire Gem.

Wendy can't use Honkai energy at all, so naturally she can't use the exoskeleton armor.

Those things are all powered by Honkai energy.

"Sikong, I'll give you three days."

"If you haven't made up your mind in three days, I'll assume you've given up, the gem transplant will end, and it will remain in Wendy's leg."

"So... do you have any questions now? I can help you answer some of your doubts."

After Otto finished speaking, he quietly looked at Sikong, waiting for his reply.

I thought about it for a moment.

Sikong asked, "Lord Otto, I would like to know what the success rate is for transplanting the Desire Gem?"

"Sikong, your physique is very special. In recent times, your resistance to Honkai energy and your ability to manipulate Honkai energy have been continuously improving. In addition, your body has extremely strong recovery ability. Therefore, according to the calculations of the Fate Research Department, your success rate in transplanting the Gem of Desire is 37%, which is actually not low."

Otto told Sikong everything in detail.

There was no concealment whatsoever.

Sikong continued to ask questions.

"There's one more thing. Lord Otto promised me he would find out about my background... I wonder if he's made any progress so far?"

"I do have some clues about your background now. Let me tell you this, Sikong. The organization that tampered with your body is called World Serpent. They have been operating in the shadows all these years. Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to find them so quickly. Perhaps it won't be long before you can greet them."

Otto narrowed his eyes and revealed a chilling smile.

Sikong thought to himself, "Greet them? What's there to greet? I don't want to greet them at all..."

That's what I was thinking.

Sikong was quick to speak, though.

"Lord Otto, if you encounter any missions involving the World Serpent Organization in the future, please be sure to let me handle them. I will definitely rout them completely." After saying that, Sikong added, "Besides these, is there anything else?"

"That's all for now. The information about your experiments on the World Serpent is very important, and I haven't found any leads yet. Please give me a little more time..."

Sikong nodded slightly and said, "Lord Otto, you flatter me."

"It's nothing, it's what I should do." Otto paused for a moment. "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Nothing."

Sikong shook his head.

"Okay, that's all for today. There are still some things I'll tell you after you've made your decision."

After saying that, Otto turned around, and the virtual projection immediately disappeared.

It seemed that Otto hadn't told Sikong something; he only told half of it before running away. This made Sikong feel like a kitten was scratching at his heart.

in this world.

Sikong dislikes two types of people.

One type is the person who only says half of what they mean.

After Otto left, the office fell silent. Theresa, instead of remaining seated at her desk, jumped off her chair and said, "Excuse me, Sikong..."

Hearing Theresa's voice, Sikong, who was caught in a dilemma, immediately turned around. He looked at the petite, single woman in her forties and scratched the back of his head.

"Um... Dean, there's no need to apologize. You didn't do anything wrong."

“No, failing to refuse Bishop Otto’s proposal was itself a dereliction of duty on the part of the headmaster. I knew full well the great danger of implanting the gem, but…”

As if lost in thought, Theresa's gaze drifted into memories.

Sikong knew without a doubt that the headmaster must have been thinking of Wendy.

That Valkyrie, who was originally very talented and even had the potential to become an S-rank Valkyrie, was lost in the Gem of Desire transplantation project.

Theresa has never been able to get over this, and she once suggested removing the Desire Gem from Wendy's body.

But......

Otto rejected every proposal.

"Dean, besides this matter, is there anything else you need me to do?"

“No, that’s all. The main reason I called you here is Bishop Otto’s idea. He’s already said everything. You can leave anytime you want.” Theresa looked up at Sikong, then spread her hands in a gesture of invitation. “Of course… you can also choose to sit with the Dean for a while.”

"If you have anything to say, you can also talk to the dean."

Theresa's smile was somewhat heavy.

Sikong looked down at the other person, thinking to himself, "Dean, don't make that face. I haven't agreed to have the Gem of Desire transplanted yet, have I?"

It's time for dinner now.

Sikong only came because Theresa summoned him.

Logically speaking...

After finishing his business, Sikong should have gone home immediately to prepare for dinner, but he did not make that choice.

"If the Dean doesn't mind, I... I'll sit here for a while. My mind's a little muddled right now." Sikong walked over and sat down on the soft sofa. "Dean, do you think I should participate in the gem transplant?"

Theresa plopped down next to Sikong and said in her childish voice, "Actually, I don't recommend you participate in the gem transplant... Although Bishop Otto said the success rate is 37%, only he probably knows the real success rate."

It seems Theresa has doubts about the probability of success Otto mentioned.

They were worried that he was deceiving Sikong.

"However... I also hope that you will participate in the transplantation of the Gem of Desire."

Theresa's face grew increasingly somber. She wanted to save Wendy, who was tormented by her desire for the gem, but Otto had promised her that he would not use Wendy as a test subject again, regardless of whether the next experiment succeeded or failed.

Furthermore, she will be fitted with exoskeleton armor on her legs, restoring her ability to walk freely. However, she can only walk freely; running and fighting are impossible.

Bronya is able to fight entirely because of the existence of Heavy Bunny 19C.

Without the combat mech obtained by sacrificing a friend.

Bronya's fate was similar to Wendy's.

When Sikong heard that the headmaster hoped he would participate in the transplantation of the Gem of Desire, he finally understood why she had apologized earlier.

"It's because of Wendy, isn't it?"

Sikong spoke without any mercy.

Theresa's eyes darted away for a moment before she said, "Yes, it's because of Wendy. Bishop Otto said that as long as you can participate in the gem transplantation experiment, whether you succeed or fail, he will let Wendy return to a normal life."

Wendy, who was crippled by the Gem of Desire transplant, has no chance of becoming a Valkyrie unless she can become a Herrscher; otherwise, her legs will never return to normal.

The only way to gain mobility is to install exoskeleton armor on the legs after the Desire Gem is removed.

but......

Even in this state, Wendy is not someone that ordinary people can bully. She is like a slow-moving but incredibly strong zombie.

Ordinary people who are caught by her will die.

"Headmaster, could Lord Otto be lying to you? If I fail, will he really let Wendy go?"

“Bishop Otto… he won’t break his promise to me, you can rest assured about that.” Theresa looked at Sikong with a worried expression. “Sikong, are you… going to agree?”

"No... I still think this is wrong. You should refuse. Don't let this small matter..."

Theresa held her head in her hands, looking distressed.

Looking at the legally grown-up girl who was even younger than Bronya, Sikong finally couldn't help but pat her head, something he had always wanted to do.

That head of white hair looks really nice.

"Dean..."

Sikong spoke slowly.

Theresa felt the large hand slowly moving over her head. Surprisingly, she did not resist or say a word, but simply kept her head down.

"Since the headmaster also wants me to have the Gem of Desire transplanted, I'll give it a try. Anyway, Lord Otto said there's a 37% success rate. Look, the three and seven on the left add up to ten, and the ten in the middle multiplies by one hundred, which is one hundred percent. So I'll definitely succeed."

Dean Theresa finally reacted. She looked up at Sikong with a shocked expression, as if to say, "Did your math teacher teach you PE?"

Theresa couldn't help but retort, "Is that how you calculate it?"

In fact, Sikong was right. Anyway, he wouldn't die. Even if he was severely corrupted by Honkai energy, he could simply change his form and everything would return to normal. His original body would only be left with benefits.

However, Theresa was unaware of this.

Even if Sikong told the truth, no one would believe him; that's how it is these days.

"Huh? Did I calculate it wrong?"

"It's not just a problem, it's a huge problem! Sikong... if you're like this, I'm afraid I'll have to take you to the hospital to see if your brain has been damaged by the Tranquility Gem."

Theresa sat on the sofa, her arms wrapped around her unremarkable chest.

The young woman in the nun's habit stared at Sikong with her blue eyes. Her white hair and blue eyes reminded him of Kiana for a moment.

These two do indeed bear a striking resemblance, not just in appearance, but also in personality...

"Furthermore, I don't recommend you participate in the experiment, whether you listened to the Dean or not. The success rate mentioned by Bishop Otto is questionable, and besides, the calculations by the Fate Research Department aren't necessarily completely accurate..."

"You've already had the Tranquility Stone transplanted. What if there's a conflict if you transplant the Desire Stone again?"

"No... No matter how I think about it, this is far too dangerous. If something really happens to you, how am I supposed to explain it to Kiana and the others..."

The dean rattled off a long string of words, giving Sikong no chance to speak at all.

After she finished speaking.

Sikong then had time to speak.

The man, dressed casually, said, "It's a pleasure that the dean cares about me."

Sikong paused for a moment.

"Well... I'll decide for myself. There are still three days left, aren't there?"
