Collapse, the Ordinary Daily Life of the Valkyries

"Put it down? Okay..."

Gao Su gently laid Bronya down, then left Bronya's side and stood in front of Hei Xier.

"Get down on your knees! You're too tall!"

Looking at Gao Su, who was almost one-third taller than her, Hei Xier gritted her teeth. Damn it, why is he so tall?!

"That's fine... After all, I haven't officially confessed my feelings to you."

Gao Su nodded, knelt on one knee, took He Xier's hand, kissed it, and said in a magnetic voice:

"Miss Xier Fuleai, are you willing to be my Gao Su's girlfriend?"

“Eh! Eh! Eh!?”

Hei Xier didn't react for a while, then turned around and looked at Gao Su in front of her at a loss. Seeing her uneasy look, Gao Su's heart softened.

"You damned man! It must be because of you! It's all because of that idiot Xier! That's why I ended up like this!"

Hei Xier leaned in Gao Su's arms with her cheeks slightly red, patting Gao Su gently with her hands while complaining about both Gao Su and Xier.

Hei Xier was so embarrassed that she wanted to push the man away and run away, but Gao Su's arms around her waist gradually tightened, and he suddenly picked her up in a princess hug.

"You wicked fellow who stole my elder sister and Xier! Put me down now before I lose my temper! Otherwise, I will make you pay for it!"

Hei Xier watched Gao Su holding her and walking into the room. Moreover, the bad guy paused when passing by the sleeping Bronya.

He looked at Bronya with a meaningful look and continued to walk in. He Xier's heart was beating a little faster.

She now felt like a thief, stealing Gao Su's concern and love for Xier, which should have belonged to the depths of his consciousness.

"me......"

Hei Xier opened her mouth and began to feel a little anxious. Gao Su put the girl on the soft bed, then leaned over and held her face with his hands.

The man's crimson lips curled gently, his eyes lingering on her porcelain-like skin.

Finally, it landed on the girl's lips, which were rosy and shiny, as if waiting for her next words:

"What am I?"

"I....."

Hei Xier opened her mouth. What could she say? Anything harsh? Gao Su had already done this. Could she still say anything?

If Gao Su really disliked Xier, Xier would blame her. For a moment, the chaotic emotions made He Xier a little overwhelmed.

In her opinion, Xier is a cute girl, and cute girls always have the sweetness of sugar. Now that she has the aroma of sugar, she can sprinkle a little bit of spices on her.

The combination of sugar and spices seemed a little insufficient, so some more good things were born.

"What do you think of Xi'er?"

Finally, Hei Xier spoke and asked a question she wanted to ask but didn't want to ask.

"Of course not a sister, but a lover. No girl would be happy to be treated as a sister by the person she loves, right? Xier?"

"Don't you think you're not Xier? Then, who was it that risked his life to save everyone that day?"

Gao Su's voice suddenly changed, it was so sweet that it seemed to melt, but it revealed the tough tone hidden in his words, and he whispered in Hei Xier's ear.

"!"

Gao Su's words hit the nail on the head. Hei Xier could no longer hold back. Her cheeks flushed, and she looked at him with misty eyes:

"Do you really think so?"

"Of course!"

Gao Su nodded, his words filled with the meaning that He Xier would not refuse. The girl stood gracefully, her red glass-like eyes looking at him calmly as water:

"You are a strange man..."

"There's nothing strange about it. As long as it exists, it's reasonable..."

Gao Su smiled carefreely and stopped talking.

Volume 1: Did We Really Defeat Honkai?: Chapter 18: The Destiny Earth Peace United Organization, Please Witness

"We can stimulate the stigma genes in the human body in a gentle way, just like injecting a vaccine, until they awaken."

Gao Su's words brought Bronya back to reality from her memories, only to see her captain still rambling on about how humans and Honkai could coexist:

"But, can you ensure that the provoked humans won't turn into death warriors or Herrschers?"

Facing Tesla's question, Gao Su spread his hands:

"What? Dr. Tesla, are you going to let me do this alone? Are you going to let everyone just sit back and watch?"

"this......"

Faced with Gao Su's question, Tesla, who was a little too hasty, was stunned for a moment. Einstein tugged at her sleeve and shook his head secretly, signaling Tesla to be patient, as his close friend had too much temper.

After all, the captain of the Hyperion was a match for Otto in terms of intelligence and strategy:

"Captain, the doctor and the others' concerns are not without reason. Everyone can see that they intend to carry out this in a subtle way."

"But, can this method really allow human will to directly connect with imaginary space?"

"Let's not even talk about how to connect humans to the imaginary space. Even if we succeed, the human body's endurance and willpower are limited."

"After all, not everyone is Kiana Kaslana, whose body can withstand the baptism of massive Houkai energy without collapsing and becoming a dead soldier."

"The Houkai energy they manipulate ultimately depends on the Houkai energy they can withstand. Otherwise, they will be corroded and attacked by the Houkai energy. At the same time, will the existence that truly controls the Houkai will directly turn them into true Herrschers?"

Looking at the white-haired girl who asked so many questions, Gao Su thought for a moment and continued:

"That's what evolution is all about. When a civilization moves from one stage to the next, it has to make sacrifices."

"The cost of evolution manifests itself in many ways, including changes in body structure, loss of function, and adjustments to survival strategies. These costs are what humans and animals must pay in order to adapt to the environment and improve their ability to survive and reproduce during the evolutionary process."

"You know, the reason humans have become the strongest creatures on Earth is largely because we walk on our hind legs, freeing up our forelimbs."

"For example, it's like the relationship between humans and nature. You can't make nature adapt to you, you can only adapt to nature."

"Take something like walking upright, for example. It's not something you can do just by thinking about it, but is largely influenced by the structure of the body."

"Cats and dogs, for example, can occasionally stand upright on their hind legs, but they can't do it for long."

"That's because their bones and muscles weren't designed for upright walking."

"So, in order to enable humans to walk upright all day, our ancestors continuously changed their body structure over a long period of time."

"The fusion warriors of the pre-civilization era, the Stigmata Project, and a series of other methods were all means for humans to survive and reproduce."

"However, the evolution of species is not a kind of 'upgrade'. While becoming more adaptable to the environment, some things may also be abandoned."

"In the process of human development and evolution, freeing our hands and walking upright meant we lost some skills and paid some price."

"But it is completely acceptable to humans. After all, they have developed an intelligent civilization."

"The underlying logic of nature is that if anything wants to get something, it must pay a price."

"The cost could be time, money, or something else."

"The development of civilization is always accompanied by contradictions and conflicts. Throughout history, people have constantly pursued the beauty of civilization and longed for the other side of happiness."

"However, the acquisition of happiness is not easy. We must go through painful trials before we can truly appreciate the value and significance of civilization."

"This kind of pain is the catalyst that propels civilization forward. So, what is the happiness of civilization?"

"It is not just about the enrichment of material life, but also the prosperity of spiritual culture." In the process of civilization development, people gradually get rid of ignorance and stupidity and possess higher moral qualities and wisdom.

“The happiness of civilization is reflected in all aspects of people’s lives: education, science and technology, art, institutions, etc.”

“All this beauty is the fruit of human wisdom and the result of countless attempts and failures.”

“To pursue the happiness of civilization, one must undergo the pain of civilization. This pain may be a clash of ideas, a change of system, or a great war.”

"The truth is, history must progress, civilization must survive, and in order to survive, the path humans take often inevitably crosses the line of morality."

"Although evolution sometimes makes humans look hideous, in the end, evolution brings us something better."

Although Gao Su's words were obscure and difficult to understand, everyone except Kiana, who was still trying to understand the captain's meaning, had more or less understood. Einstein looked at the captain:

"You're saying that activating the stigmata, programmed into the human genome from a previous civilization, requires sacrifice. So, how is this different from what the World Serpent and Otto did before? It's just a different pace."

Gao Su shook his head at her words:

"You're wrong, Dr. Einstein. We can establish a complete mechanism for clinical trials of biological drugs."

"Establishing a management standard for clinical trials of biopharmaceuticals regarding 'collapse' will prevent situations like Dr. Mebius in the previous civilization era, nor will it lead to situations like Bishop Otto in the current civilization era."

"But, in some ways, there are some similarities, that is, inevitable failure or sacrifice."

"Of course, there is another way. If Kiana and the others can accept it, I don't mind becoming a seed bank for a long time."

The captain's last words gave the Valkyries a chill. Einstein and the others hadn't expected Gao Su to make such a big announcement at the end:

"The last one, seeding all of humanity, can be rejected. Let's consider the previous ones first. After all, the problem of human extinction has been initially resolved."

Theresa patted the table and coughed lightly. The Valkyries who were in the meeting all nodded in agreement. Kiana, however, still hadn't figured out the crux of the matter and was rather excited.

"Okay, I'll go first!"

"Kiana!"

Seeing that she didn't react, Mei sighed and said anxiously:

"The Captain didn't say let us live, he said let others live!"

"what?"

This made Kiana's brain smoke. Blinking her confused eyes, she looked at her captain:

"No, man."

"Ahem, this topic is over. Let's talk about how to establish a new destiny."

Theresa felt that life was difficult. Shouldn't they be discussing the formation of a new destiny right now? How did the captain suddenly seize the topic and pull it over to his side?

"Bishop, this is the problem I'm talking about. After the former Bishop Otto Apokalis came to power, he reorganized the Mandate of Heaven, turning it into a super political entity that now overrides the state."

"Currently: There are currently 1.313 billion Kismetists worldwide, accounting for 17.7% of the world's total population."

"The percentage of Kismetists in each continent is: 81.3% in Europe and America, 17.8% in Africa, 11.1% in Asia, and 0.8% in Oceania."

"So, will the new destiny change direction and become an organization for maintaining international peace and security and conducting international cooperation, or will it continue as before?"

"However, no matter what time, in the field of 'Honkai', the Mandate of Heaven is the most universal, authoritative and representative international organization."

Theresa looked at Gao Su. She knew a secret that only she knew, or rather, this was the last gift Otto left for her, just like the bishop's robe he had woven with his own hands: a destiny that could operate automatically in all aspects.

Yes, now the Mandate of Heaven can operate well and autonomously even without a bishop.

Especially in this automated [Destiny].

Before his death, Otto not only resolved the internal troubles of [Destiny], but also eliminated the external troubles of [Anti-Entropy].

【Destiny】The leaders of the strongest Valkyrie team, one is Theresa's real niece, and the other is Theresa's die-hard fan.

They can manage all the Valkyries for Theresa from a combat perspective; and Amber, who is in charge of internal affairs, is Theresa's sister to some extent. From now on, Theresa no longer needs to worry about political issues.

As for the "external threat" [Anti-Entropy], the top management had already become close friends with Theresa, and the only "radical" was eliminated by Gray Snake.

Today, Anti-Entropy is almost restoring the organization of the North American branch of the Mandate of Heaven. Otto has cleared all obstacles for Theresa to become the Bishop of the Mandate of Heaven:

"Then let's use Rita's plan. Based on the foundation of the Fudohara Mandate, we'll abolish and add some of the East and West."

Faced with the two options, Theresa chose a moderate one. Gao Su glanced at Rita without leaving a trace, and Rita nodded imperceptibly.

Theresa stood up and looked around:

"Let me tell you the general direction. We will streamline the Valkyrie Corps and reorganize it into a global unlimited mission team and a police support bureau."

"Accept the assets of World Serpent and Anti-Entropy, establish a new Destiny, and change the name to: Destiny Earth Peace United Organization."

"All subordinate research institutes and branches will be unified in planning by the reorganized New Mandate of Heaven. Does anyone have any opinions?"

It has to be said that Theresa also inherited Apokalis's innate sensitivity to politics.

She just needs the right aspects and the right means. She is not as radical as Otto, and she is more tolerant.

Seeing that no one objected, Theresa signed her name on the document submitted by Rita, handed it to Amber, and then continued:

"Well then, I'd like to finalize the selections for the Global Unlimited Task Force while everyone is here."
