I am not a good leader myself, so I just follow my own ideas in this regard.
In the future, Lin Yu is going to be sacrificed to the heavens. At this time, he is still worried about these trivial matters...
Maybe I put too much energy into him.
After removing the mimic Yu Duchen, Otto finally asked Lin Yu to calm down and find time to return to the Far East Branch to calm down.
But before Lin Yu left, Otto saw visible dissatisfaction on the face of his obedient subordinate, which was very rare.
Hi, that’s rare.
This kid is usually very nervous in front of me, but now he is so angry because I didn't let him participate in the World Snake-related tasks.
Haha, it seems that the fact that Rita was injured by the World Snake made him completely hate the World Snake.
He is smart, good at fighting, but also sentimental. For me, such a person is an easy-to-control chess piece.
As for Theresa, as long as she uses her kind character to care for Lin Yu, Lin Yu will naturally reciprocate and become her most loyal subordinate.
However, let’s put this kid’s matter aside for now.
Lin Yu suddenly disappeared and then suddenly appeared again. This behavior was basically the same as the Imaginary Gate of the Herrscher of the Void, and could be considered teleportation.
Now, first of all, K423 is in the Far East Branch, and secondly, she has not yet completed her awakening and cannot use the power of the Herrscher of the Void.
Well, now, it can be basically determined that the holder of the Key of Space was the mastermind behind Lin Yu’s attack.
After tapping the light screen in front of him a few times, Otto spoke to Amber on the screen.
"Amber, mobilize the Shenji troops to go to England and inform the higher-ups there that we have an important mission to perform."
"I see. I'll go now--"
"No, wait."
After a little thought, Otto suddenly added to Amber.
"Forget it, I'll lead the team myself this time."
The Key of the Sky is the most critical part of my plan. After obtaining the Key of the Sky, the only thing left is the beacon.
I finally found some clues about the Key of the Sky, and now...
——I can't let the Key of Sky slip away from me because of a momentary mistake.
Destiny. Infirmary
In Tianming's medical room, Lin Yu looked at Rita who was still sleeping, and felt that something was really wrong this time.
"Okay Xiaolin, stop looking."
The ghost, who had already guessed that Lin Yu would come here, leaned against the wall and said helplessly to his students.
"The medical department at headquarters has checked her dozens of times and there is nothing wrong with Rita's health."
"And Yulandel also used the Key of Creation to treat her. Even if you don't believe in the medical level of the headquarters, you should believe in the power of the Key of God and that child."
"Yes, there is nothing wrong with Sister Rita's body. So..."
Looking at Rita who was still sleeping, Lin Yu looked up at the ghost who had come here specially today.
"Teacher, why do you think she can't wake up?"
"Can't wake up? Maybe she is not unable to wake up now, but she doesn't want to wake up."
The ghost walked towards the bed, looking at this junior who should have continued to be active on the front line of the battlefield, and said to Lin Yu.
"You have been with Rita for such a long time, you should know about her special physique."
"She has a miraculous physique that can maintain her energy throughout the day with just four hours of sleep. Although this physique has no direct effect on combat power, the influence it has on Rita is subtle."
"Because she only needs to rest for four hours a day, she can devote more time to her life and work."
"In this state, she learns faster than ordinary people, and through subtle efforts and sufficient talent, she has grown to where she is today."
Looking at the girl in front of him, the ghost suddenly said with a little emotion.
"Theresa once said that Yulandel and Rita became S-rank Valkyries through hard work and talent respectively. But in my opinion, Rita not only has outstanding talent, but she also works hard."
"only......"
Listening to the ghost's abrupt words, Lin Yu silently looked into her eyes, waiting for her to continue.
"You little brat, the teacher is keeping me in suspense and you don't even cooperate with me."
Looking at Lin Yu's direct gaze, Ghost could only choose to continue talking about the previous topic.
"However, even if she has this physique, she can only restore her body to a full vitality through four hours of rest."
"Unfortunately, our daily state as human beings depends not only on our physical activity, but also on our mental health."
"Rita has always been working hard to get promoted and save more people in the past, which has also led to her character of being always busy and not wanting to stop."
"It would be fine if nothing happened, but if something happened - her spirit would probably collapse instantly due to the accumulated fatigue."
After seeing a bit more complaints in the ghost's eyes, Lin Yu roughly understood what the other party meant.
"So, teacher, what you mean is... Sister Rita became like this because of me?"
"At least you are one of the reasons."
After noticing a hint of guilt in Lin Yu's tone, Ghost looked at Lin Yu with heartache and said.
"I'm not saying this to ask you to start blaming yourself. In my opinion, blaming yourself won't solve anything."
"The reason why Rita became like this, besides being worried about you, may also be because she is unable to keep up with the battle situation."
"Of course, if these are the reasons, they may not be enough to completely put her into a deep sleep. It's just that there are some deeper reasons that I can't think of."
Alas, my unlucky student, don’t blame me for not telling the truth.
Rita is a smart person. I guess when she was protecting Wendy, she had gradually realized Bishop Otto's true intentions.
Getting involved in the power of the Herrscher...After the Bishop has done these things, Rita, as his confidant, may know some more detailed information.
As for Rita, even though her methods have become much more cruel, she is ultimately a Valkyrie who joined the destiny in order to protect others.
Under the mental pressure of her organization's leader not being a good person, her own strength not being able to keep up with the battle situation, and her inability to protect her grown-up brother, Gray Snake's attack on her at that time became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Now it seems that she is only eighteen years old.
Letting an eighteen-year-old child bear so many burdens that he shouldn't have to bear...we adults are really useless.
And Xiaolin - with this kid's personality, if he knew things he shouldn't know, his future would be uncertain.
So now, these things - must not be discovered by you.
After hearing these words, Lin Yu was silent for a few seconds and then said to the ghost.
"I understand, Ghost Teacher."
"Then I will follow the bishop's instructions and return to the Far East Branch first."
"Okay, take a good rest during this time."
Looking at Lin Yu who was about to leave, the ghost added to Lin Yu.
"The bishop has immediately blocked the news of your defeat, so you should be careful not to let it slip."
"Yes."
After leaving the room, Lin Yu immediately left the area as quickly as possible.
To be honest, after sending the ghost away, Lin Yu felt that if he relied on the effect of the magic lantern barrier, he might be able to wake Rita up.
But now, is Rita waking up really a good thing?
If Rita wakes up, her sense of responsibility as a Valkyrie will drive her to continue to carry out various tasks.
And now, with the Honkai accelerating rapidly and the World Serpent and Otto taking turns to cause trouble, Rita would obviously only encounter greater danger if she stepped into the battlefield at this time.
S-class Valkyries are very powerful.
However, compared to the original World Snake, the current World Snake has the addition of Joyce's clone soldiers, a powerful mass-produced single combat force.
Facing a Joyce clone, Rita might be able to win easily.
But Joyce clones now appear in groups of ten. After the ten Joyce clones face Rita, even if Rita takes the initiative and freezes the opponent's body with the power of ice, she cannot break through the protective barrier created by the opponent.
As for letting Rita perform other tasks...
After Otto betrayed several of his powerful subordinates, Sieg flew away, Cecilia died, Theresa remained in a state of obeying orders but not announcements. Unless something big happened, she would just do her own thing in the Far East Branch. As a spy, Fu Hua usually did not have much free time.
In the end, the situation on Tianming's side will become that Yulandel is responsible for high-end battles and cleaning up small fish, and Rita is responsible for helping Otto deal with some difficult tasks.
To put it bluntly, the reason why Rita was able to be promoted to such a high position at the age of 18, in addition to her good talent and attitude, is that she is really useful as a tool.
Now she couldn't wake up for some reason, so instead of forcibly waking her up, Lin Yu thought it would be better to let her have a good rest for a while.
Anyway, even for someone like Otto who likes to send people around...
——After seeing Rita's miserable condition, she should be a little more careful and not ruin this useful "tool" completely.
......
St. Freya Academy. Medical Room
Outside the medical room, Theresa and Himeko stared at each other with wide eyes, then sighed at the same time.
Kokolia is dead.
This cannot be said to be bad news for the two of them.
After all, both of them participated in the riot in Changkong City.
Himeko directly faced off against Cocolia's Titan troops on Hyperion. If she hadn't decisively burned her life, Cocolia's Titan troops would have directly killed some of Himeko's subordinates.
Theresa was even more miserable. She went out to save people, but ended up meeting a Herrscher who was born because of Cocolia's tricks.
Although it was later proved that Yuno was indeed a good child, if Theresa had not been helped by Lin Yu and Kiana at that time, she would have been doomed.
Bronya has always believed that her adoptive mother, Cocolia, is only an enemy to Yuno, Hayashi Yu, Mei, and Kiana.
But this little girl subconsciously ignored the fact that the people that Cocolia had directly and indirectly hurt were far more than just the four people of her age who lived with her.
It's just that Himeko usually knows how to control her emotions, and the kind-hearted Theresa feels sorry for Bronya, so she doesn't show excessive hatred towards Cocolia in front of Bronya.
If Bronya hadn't looked so miserable when she was sent back, the two of them would really be celebrating with champagne in Theresa's office right now.
But now, seeing the few scars on Bronya's body and the traces of tears on her face when she came back, it was not convenient for the two to laugh.
Cocolia deserved it, but Bronya...
After all, she had just lost her beloved mother. As Bronya's teachers, they always had to consider the little girl's personal emotions at this time.
Of course, Bronya, who had been in a coma before Cocolia's death, did not know that Cocolia was dead yet.
But everyone knows that this little girl has a very high IQ. At this time, words like "your adoptive mother is not dead, she was just exiled to another place" will not serve as a comfort, but will only make people feel that it is an insult to her IQ.
"So, what should we do now?"
Seeing that Jizi actually took the initiative to throw the question to herself, Theresa immediately raised her eyebrows and said to Jizi unhappily.
“Who said they had a PhD?”
"At a time like this, Dr. Ji Zi, who has a high IQ, can you use your eloquence as a highly educated person to think of a way to comfort our unfortunate student?"
"Please keep your voice down..."
After listening to what Theresa said, Jizi immediately moved closer to Theresa and whispered to her.
"I have a plan and I'll do it, but the problem is..."
"When my father died, I was at least 18 years old, so I was more able to withstand the shock."
"And Bronya is not even fourteen years old yet. At this moment, saying to her 'your mother is dead' - is this something that can be solved with words?"
"Then there's nothing we can do."
After sighing slightly, Theresa took out the communicator helplessly.
"I didn't want to trouble the kid."
After dialing a number, Theresa suddenly heard a passionate Far Eastern song in their ears.
"The darkness of the deep night——"
