A person in Honkai Impact, just became a Decade Knight

When will I finally learn to cherish myself?

Chapter 462. The Out-of-Control Pawn

A few minutes later, thanks to the efforts of Rita and the medical staff, the remaining Fate casualties were also treated.

After everyone finished dealing with these messy matters, Rita suddenly received a text message through her communicator.

"Rita, after you've finished dealing with things here, begin searching for Fu Hua's whereabouts."

Through the communicator, Otto, who had somehow transferred his physical consciousness to another body, gave Rita new instructions.

"After finding Fu Hua, do not disturb her. Someone will handle the rest."

“I understand, Lord Otto.”

After completing the communication, Rita looked at Gu Yu, who was frowning and deep in thought.

"Mr. Gu Yu, what do you plan to do now?"

"What to do... let's just take it one step at a time."

From the very beginning, Gu Yu contacted Yuno and Kiana, her companions who were preparing to return to their dormitory, via communicator.

Judging from the information relayed to him by others, the Herrscher of Knowledge has not returned to St. Freya Academy.

Oh, I was rushing to save people, and now this has happened.

The one who understands the law... is precisely this one...

Gu Yu hadn't forgotten that in the original work, although the Herrscher of Knowledge herself considered herself a friendly and neutral entity, her every word and action was actually being manipulated by the Honkai.

Why would she want to attack Otto? It's clearly not because Fu Hua hates Otto so much that she wants to kill him.

Why did she want to attack Schicksal headquarters? Destroying Otto's physical body was the main reason, but not the whole reason.

Why would she want to attack the World Serpent base? Why would she want to fight Kevin?

The answer is simple—these things are all 'beneficial' to Honkai.

Regardless of whether Otto knelt before the Honkai God fourteen years ago, Schicksal was definitely a front-line force in the fight against the Honkai.

If Otto is killed, Schicksal will be in complete chaos, and there won't be much energy left to deal with the Honkai.

The branch leaders probably think they'll be lucky if they can just go their own way and not interfere with each other. It's not impossible that someone among them might even be planning to become the new archbishop, causing infighting within the Destiny.

If things come to this point, even if the newly elected archbishop is chosen after the internal strife, the organization will be severely weakened.

At this point, does Schicksal still have the ability to fight the Honkai as it did in the past?

Similarly, if World Serpent had been attacked by the Herrscher of Consciousness at the time, and Kevin had not chosen to intervene, then World Serpent, the organization fighting against the Honkai, would have suffered a loss of strength as a result.

In the end, if the Herrscher of Knowledge had continued fighting at that pace, it's estimated that only Anti-Entropy, the weakest of the three organizations, would have been able to retain most of its fighting strength to fight against the Honkai.

Regardless of their ideologies, if two of the three organizations are missing in the fight against the Honkai, the pressure on the last remaining organization will be amplified many times over.

It must be said that Otto's strategy of using one enemy to devour another did indeed prevent the collapse of the entire world's anti-collapse front.

And what's even worse is...

In the original work, the Herrscher of Knowledge in this era basically only used Fu Hua's power.

If she really went insane enough to use the power of the Herrscher of Consciousness...

In the previous era, the Herald of Knowledge used her power to spread words that she had corrupted on the internet.

Those who see those words will be infected by their spirit and fall into an endless dream.

If it weren't for Su's teacher at the time, who, while allowing Su to participate in this operation, relied on his hatred for the Honkai to awaken him from his dream and complete an ultimate one-for-one exchange, there would definitely have been many more people in that era who became vegetative due to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Because the Herrscher of Knowledge in this era identified with Fu Hua, they did not use this terrifying ability as a powerful weapon.

But... who can guarantee that she will restrain her power like in the original script?

If things get to the worst point, the girl who uses the powers of both the Herrscher of Consciousness and Fu Hua will definitely become an even more troublesome enemy in this world than the six-core Sirin.

She possesses Fu Hua's knowledge, skills, and experience, as well as the core bestowed by the Honkai God. Furthermore, after her body is fully restored, she also possesses two Divine Keys and the power of a Fusion Warrior...

This time, if she were to use the Void Divine Sword on others like Fu Hua did on Sirin during the Second Honkai Impact...

"I have a feeling that if we really fought, I might not be able to beat her without a doubt..."

…………

At the same time, at the headquarters of Destiny, in a certain area...

After giving the order to Rita, Otto touched his own soul steel face and felt a phantom pain emanating from his incredibly sturdy body.

"Old friend... Ha, with such a volatile temper, is she really still my old friend?"

Although Otto lost all his memories of that period after Fu Hua blew his Soul Steel head off, he had already backed up his memories before meeting Fu Hua.

Of course, this was just Lord Otto being cautious; it wasn't that he was worried that the uncivilized brat would seize the opportunity to beat him up during his visit to the Destiny headquarters and break his skull.

Absolutely not!

However, this memory backup turned out to be a lucky accident. After Otto backed up his memories of this period...

He died suddenly.

It's quite sudden, but he really did just die.

Even though he had lost that memory, Otto still felt a chill when he watched the surveillance footage afterwards.

One punch smashed his head into pieces, and the second punch destroyed an area within the headquarters of Destiny.

Even though Otto knew the strength of the Fusion Warriors beforehand, at this moment, he still felt a little regretful.

If it were the Fu Hua of the past, even if she regained her power, she wouldn't act so recklessly.

But the Fu Hua of today is clearly no longer the Fu Hua of the past.

She would not tolerate things for the sake of the bigger picture, nor would she cooperate with a villain like Otto for her own purposes.

She will simply do what she wants to do, just like any other child.

For example, beating Otto on the head.

For example, they could dismantle all of Otto's other Soul Steel bodies.

In other words, the original Fu Hua could be controlled by Otto using the so-called "big picture" strategy.

But Fu Hua now...

Otto has completely lost the means to control her.

Fu Hua has lost her closest relatives and has no beloved. For her, the most important people are probably the students of St. Freya Academy.

But if Otto were to threaten her with those students now...

What we'll get in return is probably not a compromise, but another desperate attempt to break through.

Chapter 463. If you're going to court death, go for it big.

Several days later, in a hotel in Sky Dome City.

After her semi-public falling out with Otto, Kanade Fueki ultimately decided to select the jinchūriki he needed, based on the candidates provided by Otto.

Apart from him, Di Muzhao, there are no other creatures in this world with magical powers within them.

In other words, if Fueki Kanade were to launch the Witch's Feast again, she would have to do two things.

First, develop a magic array that converts energy into magic power.

Then, find four Jinchūriki who are not very resistant, and a city where the Witch's Feast is held.

What he said to Otto last time about not wanting so many people to die because of his own actions was, of course, a lie.

Fueki Kanade knew he was no good person, and after all, how could Fueki Kanade, who had toyed with other people's lives and emotions in the past, suddenly wake up after failing once?

He did need a place with a larger population than the Tokyo metropolitan area to carry out the secret ritual, but that wasn't because he didn't want those people to die.

This time, however, he needs this many people to complete the ritual of resurrection.

Four Jinchūriki initiate the Witch's Feast, but what ultimately brings the Witch's Feast to a close are those living, breathing people.

Fueki, who created the energy conversion array, did not forget an ironclad rule that he, as a physicist, had always kept in mind.

When one type of energy is transformed into another, there is inevitably an energy loss rate during this transformation process.

The higher this energy loss rate, the more energy is actually required.

The magic circle that Fueki Zou hastily created probably converted human life force and Honkai energy into magic power in a ratio of three to one.

If he continues with the improvements, and spends another three to five months, he might be able to further increase the conversion rate.

But now, firstly, Fumiko doesn't have that much time to waste, and secondly, he doesn't need to increase the risk of his plans for people he doesn't know.

"Four Jinchūriki... Hmph, when Otto told me about those four people, he was definitely harboring malicious intentions."

Just a few days ago, Dimu Zou used the Wizard's Ring to create a clone, which then traveled to North America to search for Siegfried Kaslana and Walter Yang, who were there.

And then—he actually found the five-man Anti-Entropy group eating hot pot at a Chinese restaurant.

Inside that restaurant, while the five people were eating mutton, Fueki Sou's clone launched an attack on Qigefei and the others.

then……

—He was immediately beaten to a pulp by Siegfried, who was wielding the Judgment of Heavenly Fire, and Walter, who was wielding the Star of Eden, and his body was torn apart by Siegfried's Judgment of Heavenly Fire.

Although this clone did not possess the full power of Fueki Kanade, this single test was enough for him to roughly understand that Otto's information was truly unreliable.

'Siegfried is seriously injured and beyond medical help, and Welt is suffering from mobility issues due to Honkai energy corruption'—what a load of rubbish.

What happened to the serious injuries that were difficult to treat and the difficulty in moving that were promised?

Furthermore, according to intelligence, wasn't Siegfried's Divine Key, Judgment of Heavenly Fire, already taken by Kevin Kaslana?!

After this trial, Fueki Kanade decided that she should forget about playing bumper cars with the other two prospective Jinchūriki.

Since the information about the first two people Otto mentioned is unreliable, then the two pieces of news that "Gu Yu is exhausted and his combat power is very unstable, and Kevin's limbs are broken and have not yet healed" must also be false.

Wow, that man hasn't even gotten a word out of me about how to perform the resurrection ritual, and he already wants to kill me?!

What on earth is going on in this guy's head?!
