A person in Honkai Impact, just became a Decade Knight

"Considering the timing of when the Herrscher of Domination spread the power of light, these Fangblood Demons were probably turned into Fangblood Demons by someone after they awakened as espers within the last two months."

After saying all this, a serious expression appeared on Einstein's face.

"This is still in the areas we can see. In the areas that we anti-entropy haven't noticed, the Fangbloods may have already created a large number of their own kind."

"Previously, a large number of conglomerates suddenly launched commercial attacks on the Destiny Conglomerate and Me. Although our Anti-Entropy conglomerate was not attacked, it was still affected to some extent."

"Considering the suddenness of this business conflict, and the fact that the conglomerates that initiated it haven't gained a single penny, their attack likely wasn't motivated by profit. Therefore..."

After Einstein mentioned this point, Tesla continued his analysis, following up on his friend's words, and came to a conclusion.

"—Is someone provoking Destiny and ME Company? ME Company is currently being run by Cocolia's daughter, and I remember that she and Kouyu have a pretty good relationship."

"So, the result is that they are provoking Tianming and Gu Yu? No, that's not right..."

After saying this, Tesla, who was looking down, suddenly seemed to remember something and began to mutter to himself.

"What good would it do to provoke destiny and Gu Yu? This isn't provocation; it's just demonstrating one's existence. A suddenly appearing race, a suddenly emerging company demonstrating its presence... Damn, so that's how it is!"

After figuring out the truth, the hot-tempered Tesla angrily addressed the crowd.

"It was the Blood Fel Demons who did it! They not only used this method to demonstrate their existence, but also used it to threaten Gu Yu and Otto. After demonstrating their existence in this way, no one else dared to touch them."

"Including our anti-entropy and the World Serpent."

Apart from Masakazuki, who was a long-time prisoner, and Siegfried, who was completely clueless about the situation, everyone else understood the meaning of the sentence at the same time.

Every organization needs funding to operate, and since these Vampire-controlled conglomerates have the means to wage financial warfare, they also have the means to attack these organizations' revenue streams at any time.

Without money, nothing can be done. Once funding channels are disrupted or even interfered with, no organization will fare well.

Chapter 636. Returning the Money in Full

The organization that was supposed to save the world is now in an awkward situation because it's out of money.

This plot is quite awkward, but it makes perfect sense.

Although Welt, as the Herrscher of Reason, can manifest Titans and Divine Keys, he cannot possibly endure the corruption of Honkai and spend every day in Anti-Entropy crafting weapons.

Even with the support of Gu Yu's HSN potion, Welt only slowed down the Honkai's erosion of his body, rather than eradicating the damage it caused.

As long as he remains the Herrscher of Reason, he cannot escape the corruption of Honkai.

Unlike Su, who was a fusion warrior whose genes had been modified, Welt Yang was just an ordinary teenager before becoming the Herrscher of Reason.

He cannot manipulate the power of the Herrscher as easily as Sue; he can only use the power of the Herrscher to fight within a controllable range.

Getting back to the topic, a large number of weapons require a large amount of funding, and perfecting the Moon Throne also requires money.

Even though Sue's emergence has saved Tesla and Einstein from many detours, Entropy's funding is still a bit awkward...

Ultimately, it's all because of Cocolia, that idiot who took Me and pitted it against Otto, which resulted in Anti-Entropy losing its money and causing this embarrassing situation.

MeCompany is currently in the hands of Bronya Zaychek, a former member with close ties to Anti-Entropy. However, the members of Anti-Entropy are all shy and indecisive; they simply cannot bring themselves to ask a little girl for MeCompany.

This is something she obtained through her own abilities, so why should she hand it over to others?

Aside from that shameless woman Cocolia, who would want to forcibly take over Me Company?

Right now, Anti-Entropy is short of funds, and even being affected by it is causing them great distress.

If those conglomerates come back a few more times, Anti-Entropy's funding chain will break, and Walter will have no choice but to draw comics to pay off his debts.

"Now that you mention it, the new race, the Fangbloods, seems to pose a greater threat to us than we thought."

After understanding the unspoken meaning behind Tesla and the others' words, Su really felt a bit dumbfounded.

In the previous era, because there was only one anti-Honkai organization, the Fire Moth, even though humanity was struggling to breathe under the pressure of the Honkai, the Fire Moth was able to gather enough funds in the most efficient way.

Since joining the Firemoth as a researcher, Su has rarely encountered difficulties due to insufficient funding.

However, in this era, the corrupted apostles [Herrschers] have been almost completely destroyed by Gu Yu, and humanity's situation is much better than in the previous era.

However, because Gu Yu only knows how to fight and has no other ideas, the world's economy is still in an awkward state.

The three major organizations' conglomerates secretly sabotaged each other, and then the retail investor, the Vampire, entered the fray, causing chaos with his domineering and fearless attitude, making things difficult for all three organizations.

If Gu Yu had planned ahead, he could have easily won over those conglomerates and made them work for him.

If that's the case, Sue, Einstein, and Tesla could grit their teeth and not only improve the Moon Throne more quickly, but they could even create Unit 2, Unit 3, and Unit 4...

At that time, a row of Moon Thrones will be lined up, and more than a dozen Moon Thrones will simultaneously bombard the Herrscher of the End at overload...

Wow, it really works! I don't even know how I could lose.

It's just a pity that Gu Yu isn't the kind of person who would force others.

Now, things have become awkward because Gu Yu is an upright person.

Sometimes Su really felt something was off.

Gu Yu is a good person, which is a great thing. People who have mastered great power have become heroes, protecting innocent people from the attacks of the Herrschers, so that humanity can live happily ever after.

But precisely because he is a good person, he is unable to act in the most effective way in certain matters—after all, good people are not ruthless enough and have too many concerns.

If Gu Yu had even a tenth of Kevin's ruthlessness, these conglomerates wouldn't be able to cause any trouble at all.

But if Gu Yu has the same bad temper as Kevin... then things will be in big trouble.

"Alright, everyone, there's no need to worry about it anymore. Now, in addition to continuing to improve the Moon Throne, our anti-entropy action plan also requires us to put the mass-produced HSN drug on the market."

After a slight pause, Walter looked at the Thunder Dragon Horse to the side.

"Ryoma, you know more about business. Think about how to get these HSN drugs into the market and make them acceptable to others. After all, the origin of these drugs is unknown... You understand what I mean?"

"Well, my initial idea was to contact Shencheng Pharmaceuticals, but now it seems that Shencheng Pharmaceuticals is backed by a large organization... so we have to use another method."

After saying these words, a hint of struggle appeared on Ryoma's face.

"But this method is a bit... unscrupulous."

"...You tell me first."

After receiving the alliance leader's approval, Ryoma sighed helplessly and addressed Walter and the others.

"Simply put—the more expensive the potion, the better?"

"No, Ryoma, that's not right."

Siegfried couldn't sit still after hearing Ryoma's first words.

"This medicine was given to us by Gu Yu to save innocent people. It's our job to distribute it even if it's not profitable. How can you do something like this against your conscience?"

"Siegfried, wait a moment and let him continue."

Having acquired a wealth of knowledge, Walter felt as if he understood what Ryoma meant and gestured for him to continue.

"Siegfried, you don't understand. I didn't do this for money... Sigh, you don't understand."

After letting out a sigh, Ryoma continued.

"If you saw someone distributing potions that could remove Honkai erosion without charging you any fees, Siegfried, tell me, would you believe it?"

"I...don't believe it."

After rolling his eyes, Siegfried spoke to Ryoma on horseback.

"Only a fool would believe such a good thing could happen."

“Yes, normal people think the same way you do. You know how expensive Shencheng Pharmaceuticals’ potions that can suppress Honkai erosion are, so our pricing must be lower than theirs.”

"Humans have a strange mentality: they think the more expensive something is, the more reliable it is. We only need to demonstrate the potion's effects, and a large number of people will flock to it."

"Of course, this will prevent the poor from obtaining the potion. This leads to the next step. After obtaining a large amount of funds, we will send other Anti-Entropy staff to various places to sell the same potion, but this time, we will only charge a token amount of money."

"We advertise first, then get the rich to become the advertisers, and finally get the poor to believe in these drugs so they can get them at the lowest possible cost."

"The rich get 30/70 of their money, while the poor get their money back in full. Although this is very unfair to the rich, it's probably the best solution I can think of."

Chapter 637. Are you acting?

Headquarters of Destiny

Inside the Schicksal headquarters, Durandal lay in the infirmary with a dark expression, quietly listening to Aylvit report on the casualties.

Ten days ago, those three strange men launched a surprise attack on the Schicksal headquarters, causing heavy casualties and injuring Rita Rossweisse and Durandal, the captain and vice-captain of the Undying Blade squad.

With numerous casualties and both the captain and vice-captain injured, the strongest squad in the Destiny, the Undying Blade, had no choice but to temporarily suspend their operations against the Honkai, leaving most of the members at the Destiny headquarters to recuperate.

Normally, once the enemy obtains the Tranquility Gem, they shouldn't risk coming to Schicksal headquarters to cause further damage.

But today, the headquarters of Destiny was once again greeted by the same uninvited guests as before.

Although the strongest bat monster did not appear at Schicksal headquarters, Durandal, whose injuries had not yet fully healed, performed rather poorly in this battle.

Because of her severe injuries, she was unable to unleash her true power. Relying on the Black Abyss White Flower and her own strength, she fought against the lion monster, but the battle could not be decided in a short time.

As for the battle on the other side, it could be described as a one-sided massacre.

Another strange man easily defeated Rita Rossweisse, who was forced to fight hastily due to her severe injuries, and then casually killed seven or eight Valkyries. Incredibly, he and the lion-like monster easily retreated right in front of Durandal.

Although Rita had a tracking device on her to pinpoint enemy locations, according to intelligence reports given to Alvito by the intelligence personnel, the tracking device had become ineffective due to unknown interference.

"Captain, our losses this time are truly..."

Upon seeing Durandal's furrowed brows, Alvit swallowed back the words she was about to say.

"But don't overthink it, this time it wasn't your fault."

"But everyone still suffered heavy casualties, and Rita was also taken away."

Recalling Rita's miserable state at the time, Durandal felt nothing but deep regret.

If she can stabilize the power of the World Bubble within her body, not to mention the bat monster that previously attacked Schicksal, these two monsters who attacked Schicksal a second time are no match for her.

But there are no "what ifs" at this moment. With her teammates injured and her best friend in danger, she can only wait here quietly for news from the intelligence department about Rita's search.

"Oh, right, the intelligence department also mentioned something. According to the intelligence they found earlier, it seems that Lady Rita has a close relationship with that young man named Gu Yu..."

Hmm, is that true?

That's true. Rita and Gu Yu are old acquaintances, having fought together several times. Their relationship must be much better than when they first met.

"Oh, by the way, that's what the intelligence says. It seems that Rita-sama and Kou-sama's relationship has gotten so good that they're talking about marriage."
