Collapse, the Ordinary Daily Life of the Valkyries

A bustling crowd passed by him and came to the archive room. Gao Su kicked the door open, walked to the cabinet where the videos were stored with ease, and took out some things.

After finishing all this, when he was about to leave, a voice from the president's office next to the archive room caught his attention:

"President, can this really get Tianming to buy our videotapes?"

"Hmph, they won't let such unfavorable news go unnoticed. According to my colleagues in Europe, Tianming is very wealthy."

Hearing this, Gao Su frowned. How could there be such a stupid person? With Tianming's authority in Europe, would he actually spread such a message?

I'm afraid that someone from Tianming's public relations department first used words to deceive them, then reported to their superiors, and finally Rita, who was responsible for handling such secret matters for Tianming, came to investigate the matter.

As the black glove of destiny, such things are nothing new to Rita.

Whether it is infiltration and assassination or gathering intelligence, this kind of thing can be done with ease for Rita.

Of course, Rita once said that she was far inferior to Bronya in terms of being an agent. On the killer list, Dark Rose ranked far lower than Ural Silver Wolf.

After all, when Bronya learned how to eat with a knife and fork, she had already learned how to kill.

Although she later retired because of Xier, the attacking skills she displayed in her daily sparring could not be hidden.

Different from Mei and Kiana sisters' open and bold attacking style, Rita and Bronya's attacking style is to kill with one blow.

Volume 1: Did we really defeat Honkai?: Chapter 123: End of the date with Rita!

"But, now the Mandate of Heaven is vaguely showing signs of moving from controlling Europe to controlling the world. Do we really want to do this?"

Gao Su sat in the CEO's office, watching these two audacious humans discussing matters of destiny:

"That's how we control Anti-Entropy. Even if Anti-Entropy has a mecha, what does it matter? Isn't it still at our disposal?"

"The hand of destiny that holds the European destiny wants to reach out to America, but they are not qualified yet."

Gao Su rubbed his head. It was really difficult for human beings to unite. This was a problem of people's lack of enlightenment. For example, it was like asking a worker, "Have the capitalists exploited you?"

Workers may even say that the capitalists do not exploit me, they even support me. If they don’t allow me to work in their factory, how can I make money?

Many times, neither workers nor farmers, or those below the upper class, recognize this problem.

He will not realize his slave situation, and on the contrary, he will think that you are a troublemaker! I am doing well, earning a few cents and fifty cents a month, and you have to come and make trouble.

Then, those who want to lead the people to progress are often strangled by the combined forces of the rulers and the masses.

There is a gap not only between intellectuals and the working people, but also between the working people themselves.

Fortunately, Tianming Church had laid a solid foundation with religion in the past. The number of believers in Tianming Church worldwide exceeds 2.2 billion, making it the religion with the largest number of believers in the world.

Not only that, Tianming also has a considerable number of orphanages around the world, which is the key to the continuous development of Tianming's manpower and its many affiliated companies.

But even so, what Kiana and the others want to do is very difficult. What's so difficult about it?

It is very difficult for members of the same class to unite! Even if they receive similar education, it is difficult for members of the same class to unite. Not only the same class, but even members of different classes find it very difficult to unite.

After all, the rich had long ago formed alliances with each other, signed various contracts, and engaged in various intermarriages to jointly oppress others.

Just like before Otto became the Bishop of Heaven's Mandate, the three families of Apokalys, Kaslana and Shaniaba (Three) all intermarried to maintain the purity of their bloodline and the rule of Heaven's Mandate.

Interest relationships are often the easiest to establish, just like a waiter who takes orders for customers gets injured and cannot go to work because of something.

As soon as the recruitment advertisement was posted, a large number of people lined up at the door. They were not there to visit the waiter, but to replace him.

It is difficult for the proletariat to unite because they rarely have any common interests, or in other words, they do not realize that their interests are collective.

Why is it so difficult to enlighten the proletariat? Because they do not know how to unite, but instead oppress and persecute each other.

In fact, the essence of this is very simple. It is essentially human nature. The rich unite because the union is in their immediate interests.

The poor do not unite because competing with each other is in their short-term interests. Pursuing better ideals and long-term interests is against human nature.

It is extremely difficult for people to go against their own nature, and very few people can do it.

"However, Anti-Entropy is no match for Destiny. In fact, Anti-Entropy is a self-determined departure from Destiny and seeks to oppose it."

"Furthermore, their most recent leader, Bronya Zajček, just announced that Anti-Entropy and Destiny have merged and undergone a major personnel change. With this major personnel change, we can no longer hinder Anti-Entropy."

The professional manager sitting opposite the president said this, causing the president to fall silent. He then placed a USB drive on the table.

"Then, aren't these things useless?"

"Let's destroy it quickly before Tianming sends someone here. If they find out, our company might be wiped out."

How could Gao Su let them get what they wanted? He clicked on the world modulation mode, changed their cognition, and took away the USB flash drive.

When Gao Su arrived at the door of the reception room, a harsh voice came from not far behind him:

"Hey! Which department are you from? Don't you know you're not allowed to wander around during work hours?"

Gao Su gave her a contemptuous look and threw a coin high into the air. When the supervisor saw it, he reached out to grab it.

However, Gao Su was always faster than her. The moment he grabbed the gold coin, he turned it over, and the certificate of destiny appeared in his hand:

"Heaven's will is on the case."

"!"

The supervisor was about to run to the president's office in a hurry, but Gao Su had already activated the world modulation mode and deleted the supervisor.

"What are you doing here, honey?"

The next moment, Rita's voice came along with a soft and warm touch, and Gao Su put something into her pocket:

"I got the stuff, let's do the business battle."

"As you command, Captain."

Rita curled up the corners of her mouth into a smile. When they walked out of the media company, the IRS (Inland Revenue Service) people had already arrived at the company's door.

Seeing this scene, the two smiled at each other, and their figures slowly disappeared into the setting sun on the horizon.

Back in the apartment, Gao Su lay on the sofa, watching Kiana on TV stumbling over the post-war speech he had written for her, and smiled.

"Captain, are you looking at Lady Kiana again?"

A slightly jealous voice came from the kitchen. Rita walked up to Gao Su with some cut fruit and sat down.

"No, I'm just checking on Destiny's current situation, Rita."

"Your ability to tell lies hasn't improved at all, Captain."

Rita watched the camera on TV being gradually pulled away from Kiana, and pointed out what her captain had said.

Gao Su did not dare to face the jealousy that had spread to his surroundings, so he had to choose to temporarily avoid the attack:

"Sorry, mine."

Rita came close to Gao Su and kissed him with lightning speed. Gao Su even took the initiative and became the host.

She gripped the pillow harder and harder. The hormonal scent emanating from the captain made her indulge in it, and her body became limp.

"Ha~"

A faint laugh escaped the captain's lips, and his deep voice tickled Rita's heart.

Then her fair and delicate hand was wrapped by Gao Su's big palm. It was slender, with distinct joints and a sense of strength. This is what Rita felt.

Especially the Adam's apple that slid up and down, which made Rita want to touch it and feel everything about him. She opened her throat which was a little hot:

"Captain..."

"It's okay, there's still plenty of time."

Volume 1: Did We Really Defeat Honkai?: Chapter 124: Information on the Outer Solar System

"Tsk."

This is Kiana's disgust.

"Ugh...."

This is Mei's helplessness.

"As far as universal reason is concerned..."

This is Bronya's analysis.

"You smell strongly of that woman."

This was a blunt statement from Huang Quan. Gao Su looked at his entire body in confusion, then looked at them in confusion:

"No, I've already taken a shower. How can you still smell it?"

"The red marks on my neck can't be washed off."

Huang Quan took a sip of the hot water in her hand and continued. Gao Su sat down beside her bed and leaned back in the chair:

"Well, this is indeed my negligence, but there is nothing I can do about it. I really am too busy to do anything else."

"Tsk."

Now, even Huang Quan made a sound of disgust, and then she looked at Gao Su:

"Actually, there's no need to go to the outer solar system. Wouldn't it be better to develop within this universe? Besides, the company's marketing department isn't exactly a good bunch. They'll do anything for profit."

Gao Su nodded:

"After all, development isn't a gift. Behind every brilliant rise lies the struggle of various parties. I have a question for you, Market Development Department. Have you silenced the flame of civilization?"

Huang Quan looked at Gao Su who was asking the question despite knowing the answer and shook his head:

"I don't know. I haven't had much experience with the company, but they have auctions and colonies dedicated to the slave trade."

"Crisis after crisis, starvation everywhere, a screaming economy. Not all civilizations in the universe are worthy of dignity."

"Many small, backward civilizations and planets can only be destroyed by the organizations under the command of some star gods."

"There were many small planets trying to prove to the company that they were not lambs to be slaughtered."

"However, generally speaking, they end up silently accepting their fate under the combined punches of the chess players."

Kiana looked at Huang Quan, a flame flickering in her azure eyes:

"Then, doesn't that mean that the so-called Interstellar Peace Company you mentioned was built on the blood and endless suffering of the people, and that it has plunged the people into hardship and turned them into puppets?"

Huang Quan nodded:

"Unfortunately, that's the case. However, the Universe was unable to overturn the favorable conditions of time, place, and people for the Interstellar Peace Company."

"Is it because of the Star God behind the company?"

Balonya sensed the crux of the matter. Huang Quan nodded, then shook his head.

"The Amber King doesn't care about the Interstellar Peace Company at all. It's just a gimmick used by the company's founder."

"In terms of external propaganda, the company is a giant corporate conglomerate that advocates for free trade."

"From an operational perspective, the company is a business dictatorship that issues currency and monopolizes resources. However, from a business perspective, the company is a selfless supporter of the Star God who "protects" it."

"When most Star Citizens talk about the company, they often mention the ubiquitous merchandise and prominent logos: as if "wherever there's trade, there's the Interstellar Peace Corporation."

"In fact, almost all business activities in the Galaxy are based on the company's "credit point" system."

“If interstellar trade is compared to a sports competition, then companies are both the top athletes and the various sports, both the playing field and the rules themselves.”

"The company's absolute dominance over wealth and its unending expansion have given the public the impression of a conspiratorial dictator."

"But the company pays no heed to lesser visions like 'One Hand Covers the Sky,' for its corporate spirit remains unchanged from its inception: dedicating everything to the 'Amber King,' Krippo."

Mei has her own perspective:

"What if we don't join the Interstellar Peace Company's business empire, or in other words, don't use the company's currency but instead conduct an exchange rate?"

Huang Quan thought about the rumors he had heard:

"If a planet refuses to join the Interstellar Peace Company's commercial empire and doesn't use credit points as currency, the Interstellar Peace Company will use a strange artifact called 'Split Gold Coins' to easily destroy its financial system."

"It can be said that companies have monopolized the economic system, or that companies are typical examples of monopoly capitalism, where everything is done to gain more profits."

"Of course, compared to the power in the universe, the company is actually still relatively good. There are many more evil forces in the universe."

Kiana and the other two had not expected that the situation in the outer solar system would be so complicated.

"Let's put aside the four major disasters of the universe: the People of Plenty, the Legion of Destruction, the Zerg, and the Emperor's Omnic Crisis."

"The immortal boats on patrol are great, right? They're selflessly sharing their medical expertise. But they see you as an outsider. Just like the elves in novels, arrogant and conceited. Most of the time, they just do some trade."
