These words, devoid of any sentimentality... Big brother, you really haven't been able to let go of the news of your parents' passing, so you subconsciously wanted to escape from here?

After having this thought, Kiana decided that she should stop thinking about other things.

"Oh, by the way, Kiana. As usual, I've sent you a copy of these emails as well. I still need to ask you to use the intelligence networks of the Kaslana and Shaniat families to gather information on these monsters."

After thinking about this, Gu Yu turned around and scratched her head sheepishly.

"I'm sorry for always making you do these trivial things for me."

"It's okay, big brother, I'll do my best."

Kiana chuckled and waved to Gu Yu before continuing.

"Of course, in return, big brother, you must promise me that you will take good care of yourself."

"Ah, I'll try my best. Well then..."

After activating the Aurora Veil, Gu Yu spoke to Kiana.

"Bye."

After watching Gu Yu leave the room, Kiana immediately followed suit and locked the door.

If she were to act coquettishly here, Gu Yu might choose to stay and rest for a while longer.

But now, Kiana knows very well that even if Gu Yu stays here because of her, he will still be uneasy because he is worried about those monsters causing trouble.

Putting aside Gu Yu's physical condition, Kiana could tell that Gu Yu's exhaustion stemmed from more serious mental issues than physical ones.

If Gu Yu is not allowed to rest in peace, then it is practically the same as wasting Gu Yu's time.

From this perspective, instead of using her charm to delay Gu Yu's progress, Kiana would be better off doing something in another direction.

As Gu Yu's fiancée, even if there are no issues with their engagement now, she should still support Gu Yu silently in her own way, acting as the woman behind him.

Only after eliminating all the monsters that were preventing Gu Yu from resting could Gu Yu finally relax and rest in peace.

By that time...

It's not too late for her to launch another offensive!

World Snake Branch Base. Interior

Inside the backup base, Gray Serpent and Jackal, their faces grim, were tallying up the losses.

Following Kevin's attack, Destiny launched a full-scale attack on the World Serpent Tang.

Apart from Shencheng Pharmaceuticals, which has not yet suffered huge losses, a large number of snake industries around the world, including the Mikoyan Technology Bureau, have been hit by a devastating blow from the hand of destiny.

Otto directly activated the power of his Inner World King, causing some of these industries to collapse on their own.

Meanwhile, many of the World Serpent's bases around the world were also taken down by Destiny.

Of course, what upset the gray snake and the jackal the most was...

Their base contains important materials and data related to the Stigmata Project.

Now that these things couldn't be salvaged, the launch of their World Serpent's Stigmata Project will inevitably be significantly delayed.

“Otto Apocalypse…this man seized our weakest moment and launched his attack…”

After uttering these words in a somber, mechanical voice, Gray Serpent immediately addressed Kevin inside the recovery pod.

"My lord, it is my incompetence that I failed to detect Otto's surprise attack."

"This is not your fault, Grey Serpent."

Recalling what had happened in the past two days, Kevin's expression was also very unpleasant.

According to the plan, he should seize the Herrscher Core held by the Herrscher that appeared during the Fifth Honkai Impact, rely on the Honkai energy generated by the Fifth Honkai Impact to restore his strength, and then unleash the true power of the Judgment of Heavenly Fire.

Although the plan was successfully implemented, the cost was far too high.

Kevin, who paid this price, must admit that Otto dared to launch an attack because Kevin underestimated Gu Yu's strength.

Kevin believes that even if Gu Yu still has fighting power after his battle with the Herrscher, he is definitely no match for him.

After recovering to his peak condition using the Honkai energy from the Fifth Honkai Impact, Kevin felt that Gu Yu, in a weakened state, was definitely no match for him.

Then he got beaten up. If his subordinates hadn't developed a cheat-level teleportation system, he would be dead at Gu Yu's hands now.

Otto seized this opportunity, knowing that Kevin was unlikely to unleash his full combat power in a short time, which is why he dared to send the Valkyries of Destiny and the Divine Machines to launch a surprise attack on World Serpent.

"Otto, let you be smug for a few days. After I recover from my injuries, I'll come and have a proper chat with you."

"Your target should be the beacon in my hands..."

"And then I'll show you... that the 'beacon' in my hand isn't so easy to take!"

Chapter 399. An Unbreakable Bond

When Raven returned to the World Serpent branch as previously agreed, she naturally saw the unpleasant expressions on the faces of the three men.

Although he had long anticipated that his companions and lord would greet him with such expressions, Raven still couldn't help but sigh inwardly when he saw that even the nitpicking jackal hadn't mocked his power.

The losses suffered by the World Serpents this time were truly enormous.

It was so big that no one could possibly accept it.

"Raven, thank you for your hard work."

After seeing that Raven had returned to the World Serpent branch unharmed, Kevin nodded slightly to Raven.

"You deserve a lot of credit for our retreat this time. Just tell me what you want."

"No, Your Majesty, I did not delay Gu Yu for long."

Recalling the scene of his meeting with Gu Yu at the World Serpent Base, Raven said with a wry smile.

"Even if you add up all the time, I can only hold off Gu Yu for less than ten seconds at most. Even without those ten seconds, you can still retreat safely, right, Lord?"

"It is Your Excellency who pleads for your incompetence. I am unable to complete either the task of persuading Gu Yu or taking back the Third Divine Key from him."

Kevin remained calm after the raven uttered those words.

Instead, the jackal, who had just been filled with regret, cried out in shock.

"What did you say? The Third Divine Key...you can't get it back?"

"Aren't you and Gu Yu on particularly good terms? Is it really that difficult to get the Key of God back from him?"

"You're talking nonsense."

Raven treats Kevin well because he's the leader, but he doesn't show the slightest kindness to Jackal, his companion who has betrayed him countless times.

"Our good relationship is all in the past. Now he's standing in our way, and I, as a member of the World Serpent, have become an obstacle in his path."

"The only reason they didn't kill me on the spot was because of our past relationship. We mercenaries, even if we were comrades in the past, once we meet on the battlefield, no one will show mercy when it comes to life and beliefs."

After the raven uttered those resolute words in a rather annoyed manner, the jackal had no intention of saying anything more.

Although she has low emotional intelligence, she is not so bad as to be unable to understand the current situation at this moment.

Kevin Kaslana felt a little guilty towards Raven for abandoning her. In other words, if the two of them argued, Kevin would definitely take Raven's side.

Meanwhile, the raven has broken ties with its old friend, so it's unlikely it's in a good mood.

If the jackal were to start making sarcastic remarks at this point, she would certainly suffer the consequences.

But have these two really really fallen out like this?

If the mask hadn't concealed the jackal's expression, the other three would have definitely seen the suspicion and distrust on the devilish scientist's face.

"Alright, you've done a good job this time, no matter what. I've met that boy before. He's like an old friend of mine; he thinks the Stigmata Project is inhumane."

"I was just planning to let you try it out. If it fails, that's normal. You've really worked hard lately, so get some rest these next few days."

"After all, it will take some time for the Gray Serpent to organize its intelligence and for the Jackal to mitigate its losses. Our World Serpent has suffered a great blow this time and also needs some time to recover."

"In addition, there are still some remaining members. They must remain dormant and absolutely must not show themselves at this time and run into Otto's gun."

After hearing Kevin's instructions, the three of them knelt down on one knee in front of Kevin.
