At this time, Lin Yu suddenly put his hand on Alisha's head and said to her.
"After reading this, you will probably believe that I really have a way to deal with the Cocoon of the End."
...
A few minutes later. World Serpent Headquarters
In the World Serpent Headquarters, Kevin, who had returned to being alone, suddenly saw the intelligence screen in front of him jump out.
"Hi?"
"Kevin, did you miss us after we went to Destiny?"
Looking at the smiling Alicia on the intelligence screen, Kevin felt for a moment as if he was in a trance and recalled his past memories.
However, after a moment of trance, Kevin's consciousness returned to reality.
"Alicia, did you gain anything over there?"
"Well, how should I put it, it's a great harvest."
"But the reason I'm contacting you now is not entirely because of this matter."
Listening to Alicia's speech, Kevin did not finish the conversation, but signaled Alicia to continue with his eyes.
"You... forget it, now is not the time to talk about these things."
"Lin Yu asked me to tell you that he hopes to complete the test you want to complete on him tomorrow, and well..."
After letting the core in her hand float in the air, Alicia spoke to Kevin very seriously.
"In the interest of fairness, he asks you not to open the back door..."
"——has handed over his core of restraint to me."
......
Chapter 338: If I can, I want to be the loser
Although Kevin had told Letusu long before that with Lin Yu's intelligence, he would make the right judgment to prove himself, instead of using the power of restraint to overwhelm Kevin.
But when he saw Alicia take out the core, Kevin still felt that he had underestimated Lin Yu a little.
In Kevin's conception, Lin Yu would at most proactively inform Kevin that he would not use the constraint core before the battle between the two sides began.
Although Kevin believed that Lin Yu would not lie about this, a verbal promise was just a verbal promise after all.
But now, Kevin, who was looking at this core, saw Lin Yu's determination from this core.
The young knight does hate the Vengeance Demon of Honkai, but at the same time, he is also the guardian god who protects the world.
In order to prevent Kevin from "saving" humanity in the worst possible way and to protect humanity, Lin Yu directly chose to use the method of [extracting the core before the war] to prove his belief.
The more Kevin realized that Lin Yu was stronger than he had imagined, the more regretful he felt.
If he could return to this world earlier and meet Lin Yu, then Lin Yu now might have been trained by him to become even stronger.
However, even though he lamented, Kevin did not completely forget what he should do.
He acknowledged Lin Yu's belief, but defeating Honkai cannot be accomplished by belief alone.
During this long period of time, Kevin, as a pioneer, has met too many people with firm beliefs.
But unfortunately, even though these people have firm beliefs, many of them still fail to achieve their goals.
The most typical representative is probably Otto Apokalis, who was killed by Lin Yu not long ago.
Two months ago, in order to catalyze the birth of the Ruler of Law at the Destiny Headquarters and delay Lin Yu's progress, Otto took the initiative to disclose all the shit he had done in the past five hundred years.
Kevin, who was an ally of destiny at the time, naturally learned what Otto had done in the past in the following period of time.
Otto has done so many terrible things in the past five hundred years that even with Lin Yu's intelligence network, it is impossible to include and count all of them.
But just because Lin Yu didn’t know doesn’t mean that there are no other people who know about the bad things Otto did.
During these five hundred years, Otto outlasted many people and deceived many people to death, but there was only one person who not only was not outlasted or deceived to death, but also accompanied Otto for five hundred years.
It has a very close relationship with pre-civilization.
And on its body, there is a Herrscher core representing the [Power of God].
During these five hundred years, Otto once called it an 'old friend'.
It even has the ability to release feathers and hypnotize others.
This existence - of course, does not refer to Hua, who was tricked to death by Otto, whose life was worse than death, and who also worked for Otto for nothing.
During these five hundred years, the only one who knew everything Otto had done and recorded it was Void Wanzang, the Super Iron Crotch, who had been disgusted by Otto for five hundred years and at the same time disgusted Otto for five hundred years.
If anyone else disgusts Otto or interferes with his plan to resurrect Kallen, Otto will naturally find an opportunity to get rid of that person.
But the problem is that Xukong Wanzang is obviously a special case.
Xukong Wanzang, who knew very well that Otto was not a good person, had never given Otto the search rights of the library after he was suppressed by Otto through special means.
After all, it is not a fool. After handing over the search authority, the only thing that can threaten Otto, it will definitely not get any reward from Otto. Instead, it will be disposed of by the other party after its value is fully exploited.
Moreover, Xukong Wanzang has not forgotten that Otto has always harbored hatred towards Xukong Wanzang in his heart.
Although from a God's perspective, Otto chose to listen to his sister and do bad things when [Karen would not run away but choose to save people when she saw Honkai beasts attacking people], which is a brain-twisting choice in itself, but...
——Deep down in his heart, Otto always felt that if Hollow Manzang had lent him his power, Kallen would not have to die.
It is for this reason that Otto regards Void Manzang as one of the culprits who "killed Kallen".
Yes, although the person was captured by Nicolas, the order to execute Kallen was given by the high-level officials of the Mission, and the Honkai Beast was provided by Lisa and released by Otto, Otto just felt that it was Hollow Bankang who killed Kallen.
Xukong Wanzang, who was inexplicably blamed, has been preparing to fight back against Otto since he realized five hundred years ago that Otto had put the blame on him.
It is the divine key used by the previous civilization to fight against collapse. As a "ruler of reason" with a mission, it does not want to "die" in vain because of the anger of a petty man.
Therefore, Xukong Wanzang, who has always been following Otto, has actually recorded every bad thing Otto has done.
I won’t mention the things that everyone knows, such as forcing Joyce to death, letting the Herrscher of the Void escape, and actively proposing that the Herrscher of the Void contact the Will of Honkai.
In fact, in the past five hundred years, Otto had recorded everything, including who he had killed, how many human experiments he had secretly conducted, how much public funds he had embezzled, and how many hours of Kallen's fantasies he had when he was not doing anything at work.
After Lin Yu made this record public to everyone in Tianming, the last bit of Ottoblowing left in Tianming did not dare to have any extra thoughts.
After Kevin learned about these things, in addition to having a strong desire to kill Otto, who had been a drag on mankind for five hundred years and was already dead, he also had to admire Otto's obsession.
But now, Otto has been taken care of by Lin Yu, and the soul steel bodies he made with soul steel for personal gain have been made into weapons and armor by Lin Yu.
This person couldn't be deader. In Kevin's eyes, he was naturally a loser who was obsessed but useless.
To be successful, you need not only persistent belief, but also strong enough power and a certain degree of luck.
Take Otto for example. He planned everything for such a long time, but from the time he disclosed the information at the Savior Headquarters to his death, it only took about an hour.
If Lin Yu had 'awoke' later in the evening, Otto's plan might have had a chance of success.
It’s just a pity that there are no ifs in this world.
Bad luck is bad luck, and if you can't win, you can't win.
In the absence of sufficient strength and bad luck, no amount of planning will be of any use.
And now Lin Yu has strong enough faith and very powerful strength.
Not only that, after reading about Lin Yu's success story, Kevin was very sure that this promising young man's luck was absolutely first-rate.
This is not to say that he was lucky after his parents died, but he could not have evolved from a destined agent who could not even become a knight to the point where he cut Kevin in half in two minutes in three months. Without enough luck, he could not have done it.
If I have to say it, Kevin now really has a feeling that "fate is in Lin Yu's hands".
"Oh, that."
Looking at Kevin who had been thinking deeply for several minutes, Alicia waved at Kevin.
"Kevin, can you hear me?"
"Or is it that the light screen provided by Tianming is broken?"
"I can hear you, Alicia."
Looking at his friend in front of him, Kevin asked Alicia calmly.
"So, after seeing this core, what is your judgment?"
"Lin Yu abandoned his core preparations to fight me who is now in the best condition. Does this mean..."
Without waiting for Kevin to finish, Alicia gave the answer that Kevin expected.
"It will win."
"At least in my opinion, Lin Yu is not a fool."
"Well, that's not right..."
Recalling Lin Yu's action of taking out the core directly in front of her, at this moment, Alicia really felt that Lin Yu was definitely a "fool".
But for such a fool, she really couldn't have any negative thoughts.
"He is undoubtedly a fool, but in my opinion, this little fool should not be a fool who destroys himself at least most of the time."
"Since he voluntarily handed over his core, this can only make me think that he judged that even without this core, he could still defeat you."
“…I agree.”
After listening to Alicia's analysis, Kevin did come up with similar ideas as Alicia.
Before Lin Yu awakened as the Herrscher of Constraint, he was definitely not Kevin's opponent. But at that time, when Kevin saw Lin Yu, he felt that although this young man was not as strong as himself, he was definitely not a weakling, but an opponent he needed to treat with caution.
Now that so much time has passed, it has long been an open secret in the eyes of these people that Lin Yu has his own special intelligence network.
Lin Yu, who knew some information, started to deal with the corpse of Chi You that Kevin needed at the time in advance. After Kevin arrived, he used magical techniques to create an illusion and trapped Kevin in it.
In that illusion, Kevin almost fell into it for a moment even though he knew it was an illusion.
After all, this illusion is not only so realistic that it is hard to tell the difference between the real thing and the fake, but everything that appears in the illusion is the future that Kevin hopes to see.
This was true even for the breakfast May made for Kevin.
For Kevin, who has never been able to hug his lover, having his lover make breakfast for him in a peaceful era has always been one of his unattainable dreams.
Lin Yu, who was able to construct this illusion in a short period of time, had obviously studied Kevin's past in advance, so he was able to complete the illusion that almost caused Kevin to sink at the fastest speed.
From that battle, Kevin saw Lin Yu's faith, wisdom and courage.
After experiencing those events, Lin Yu not only did not become weaker as a warrior, but instead refined the power he subsequently gained to become even stronger.
Just today, Kevin, who met Lin Yu, was very sure that even if Lin Yu restrained the power of the Ruler of Constraint, the aura he exuded was enough to make Kevin feel threatened.
so......
"Please tell Lin Yu that I look forward to fighting him."
Yes, it’s not a test.
Now that I am a defeated opponent of Lin Yu, I have no right to use the word "test" in a condescending manner.
There is no doubt that this is a duel that involves the beliefs of both parties.
Tomorrow...
I hope Lin Yu can unleash enough power to move me.
if you can......
——I want to be the loser again.
.........
Destiny Headquarters
After cutting off contact with Kevin, there was rarely a trace of smile on Alicia's face.
Le Tuhua, who had just met up with Alicia, had not spoken since the conversation between Alicia and Kevin began.
As one of the few honest people among the Thirteen Heroes, she actually doesn't think as quickly as some of her companions.
But just now, just by looking at Kevin's seemingly calm face, she vaguely felt a sense of impending storm.
