“You had better be, Your Excellency.”

He held his forehead helplessly. Miss Amber, the all-purpose secretary, was also helpless about her playful bishop.

In the eyes of outsiders, Otto Apokalis is a superhero who is meticulous in his planning, manipulative, and able to control the world in the blink of an eye.

But only a very small number of people, including Amber and Theresa, knew that Otto also had an ordinary side as a human being. He would try every possible way to slack off, occasionally act like a middle school student, and even banned the opponent’s account when he couldn’t beat the game.

However, this time, Amber did not hold on to Otto’s laziness as usual. After all, the current information was really important, so important that Amber could turn a blind eye to Otto’s behavior for the time being.

“Your Excellency, Captain Aberroot of the Hyperion reported back to the Destiny Headquarters three minutes ago.”

“Oh?”

Otto’s eyes lit up when he heard the news. You know, he has been looking forward to the return of Captain Aberroot since the “Sacred Blade” era. Now, almost a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and he finally got the captain back who was on paid leave.

The experiment on the relationship between the power of the Kart-Kar isotope and Kamen Rider can finally be put on the agenda.

——Huh? Come to think of it, why did I grant him such a long leave?

Just thinking about this, Otto’s mind suddenly paused, as if he was about to remove some kind of ideological stamp, and he felt the incongruity of this matter.

A captain of an airship who was destined to be his captain asked me for an indefinite paid vacation for no reason, using the ridiculous excuse of wanting to travel around the world, and I actually agreed to it right away.

Even afterwards, he never thought of recalling him. Is this reasonable for Otto, who was eager to resurrect Kallen?

——Uh, well, it seems quite reasonable. How can we disturb employees’ paid vacation? (confusion)

In the dark, in the realm above the Tree of Imaginary Numbers and the Sea of ​​Quantum, a certain supreme being wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his head, and marveled at the ability of this kid Otto. Taking advantage of the visit of that adult and his own inattention, he almost succeeded in finding a bug with him. He was indeed the man who was destined to rush the tree in the future.

“Fortunately, I am one step ahead in skills. Now it all depends on what the boss does.”

Thinking that his own world would finally be equipped with the power of Kamen Rider, the world consciousness couldn’t help but rub its hands together in joy.

When Yueyue and Zhouzhou showed off to him before, he was so envious that he cried.

“Hmph, wait, I’ll get more than one power, I won’t be able to kill you by then~”

“Well, I said that working hard to develop the multiverse will definitely have a bright future. Look, when the big boss came to borrow a filming location, you could only borrow one with great difficulty, but I was able to make a list for the big boss to choose from. This is the pattern~”

Regardless of the fact that the consciousness of the Honkai world had already begun to fantasize about its own bright future, Otto, whose bug had been fixed by it, naturally ignored the previous association and looked at Amber again.

“It’s a good thing that the Captain is back. Many new plans can be implemented now. Why do you look so distressed, Amber?”

“Well, Mr. Aberroot did come back, but he brought back some local specialties.”

Amber organized her words, trying not to irritate the bishop too much.

“Oh, you brought some local specialties, that’s really thoughtful, what are they?”

Otto nodded, not taking it too seriously, and asked casually.

“It’s Pandora’s Box.”

“Oh, Pandora’s Box, that’s really thoughtful… Huh? What is that?”

Otto’s eyes went dark. He never expected that his good employee would cause him such a big trouble by bringing back the source of all evil in the video. Was he trying to let the Sky Wall blow up his huge Destiny Headquarters?

Holding on to a glimmer of hope, Otto said with a drop of cold sweat.

“Um, is it a toy knockoff? I remember that recently a lot of toy manufacturers started to imitate the video and make some of the things in it into toys to sell? I remember it was quite popular.”

“I’m sorry, Your Excellency. After our testing, we found that the material that made up the box is a substance that does not exist on Earth. We also detected a huge amount of energy in it, and this energy is not even activated yet.”

Amber sighed, breaking her bishop’s fantasy time.

“What are you waiting for? Call Albert to me now!”

Otto looked grim, you know, if he was hit by the Sky Wall at this critical moment, not to mention researching Kamen Rider, even his own Xilin Plan would suffer a huge blow.

And if Pandora’s Box destroys all Honkai energy like in the drama, then the foundation of Destiny will be truly destroyed.

Although Otto doesn’t actually care about the survival of Destiny, Destiny still needs to exist before his plan is completed.

Watching Amber leave to find Albert, Otto supported his chin with both hands and couldn’t help but start thinking about the purpose of Albert’s behavior.

After the broadcast of “Creation Rider”, he appeared in reality with Pandora’s Box. In addition, Mebius in the video particularly likes to use Alberut’s voice. It is hard not to have various associations among these clues.

It also made Otto realize that Albert was not an ordinary person.

“Albert, who are you?”

495: Speed ​​Pass

“Of course I am an ordinary Hyperion captain.”

While tasting the black tea and pastries served by the maid in the lounge, Chen Shi answered the truth without blushing when faced with the curious questions from Rita who was serving him.

In the world of Honkai Impact 3, at least before Chen Shi used his ability to transform himself into a Martian slime, the incarnation named Abelroot was indeed an ordinary, sunny and cheerful boy.

The only special thing may be that because of the world consciousness’s habit of creating characters, higher Honkai energy adaptability is given when creating characters. However, although men with Honkai energy adaptability are rare in this Honkai world, they do exist. The children adopted by Adam and Raven in the post-Honkai book are examples.

Therefore, what Chen Shi said was just like a Triceratops wrestler jumping out of an empty arena – he had a clear conscience. Even if he was taken away for slice research now, he could only come to this conclusion.

But it is obvious that Rita Rossweisse, one of the only three S-class Valkyries in the Sky, does not believe Chen Shi’s claim.

She silently glanced at the Pandora’s Box placed on the table by Chen Shi, and smiled without saying a word as she refilled Chen Shi’s cup of tea.

Chen Shi did not comment on this. He did not lie anyway. Since the other party was pretending to be an expert and did not continue asking questions, he would not say anything.

The strange atmosphere ended only when the white-haired secretary pushed the door open and called Chen Shi to Otto’s office.

Finally, the meeting with the real master came. Chen Shi picked up Pandora’s Box and followed Amber’s footsteps. Under her guidance, he met the Bishop of Destiny, who is now the main person in charge of the world of Honkai Impact 3.

Looking at the Pandora’s Box in Chen Shi’s hand, which was a 1:1 replica of the video, Otto’s mouth twitched behind his hands. With his knowledge and the information about the Void in his body, he could tell at the first sight that Pandora’s Box was definitely not a replica made of Earth materials, confirming that Abolut, who had been away from work for a long time, was planning to give him a big job.

However, Otto’s 500 years of Qi-cultivation skills were not in vain. He quickly retracted his gaze, adjusted his mentality, and revealed a calm and elegant smile.

“Welcome back, Captain Aberruth. I never thought you would bring me such a surprise.”

“Did you really not expect this, Your Excellency?”

Chen Shi smiled slightly and placed Pandora’s Box directly on the other person’s desk.

“Well, I don’t mind if you play dumb with me, Bishop, as long as you can turn a blind eye to what I’m going to do next.”

“Roar, tell me about it.”

Otto was surprised that Chen Shi seemed to have no interest in practicing Tai Chi with him, and she intended to get straight to the point, but on the surface she still maintained her usual composure. Unfortunately, Chen Shi’s next sentence made her a little stunned.

“This Pandora’s Box can absorb various forms of energy and convert it into a new energy source called nebula gas in the video. I want to use this function to completely absorb all the Houkai energy on Earth and achieve the goal of eradicating Houkai.”

“This……”

Otto appeared calm on the surface, but he was frowning inside.

He did not doubt the truthfulness of what Chen Shi said. Judging from the performance of Pandora’s Box in the play and the fact that Honkai energy did disappear from the world in the video, Pandora’s Box should indeed have a similar effect.

As for whether the Pandora’s Box that Chen Shi brought can really achieve what he said, Otto will check it personally later.

What he was worried about after all was his plan. Without Honkai energy, all of Xilin’s plans would be aborted.

At least in the world view of Build Rider, the ability to resurrect the dead has not yet been demonstrated. Otto does not want to give up his plan easily and gamble on the plot after Build Rider.

However, Chen Shi naturally knew what kind of person Otto was, so he prepared a condition that the other party could not refuse.

“Don’t rush to refuse, Bishop. I admit that Honkai can do a lot of things, but if, I mean if, I can do what you want to do for you first, can you fully support my plan?”

“Captain, this joke is not funny.”

After hearing Chen Shi’s words, Otto narrowed his eyes for the first time, showing his displeasure. The other party seemed to know his plan, which was supposed to be confidential, very well. This made Chen Shi’s danger level increase a lot in his eyes.

However, when Chen Shi smiled and pointed to the window outside, allowing Otto to see the huge machine that stopped silently outside his window, the nature of the conversation suddenly changed.

……

A few hours later, Princess Otto, who looked a little dazed, walked down the Time Magic Machine holding a white-haired nun. She couldn’t believe that her wish that had lasted for 500 years had suddenly come true today.

In order to reassure Otto that he did not bring a fake to fool him, Chen Shi invited Otto to take a spontaneous journey through time and space, returning to this world 500 years ago.

Otto spent a lot of time and effort there, successfully proving that he had really completed the time travel, rather than going to some other seemingly real world bubble.

Everything that happened afterwards went according to plan. In order not to affect the course of the future world and prevent people who should not disappear from disappearing, Chen Shi held down Otto, who was planning to change history. After Karen died, they went to Otto’s house together to steal Karen’s body, and left behind a clone of Karen that Chen Shi had picked up in modern times.

Then, in front of Otto, he used the dial of Zi-O II to let Kallen perform the same mechanical dance as Xiao Mingge, completing Otto’s long-cherished wish on the spot.

what?

Otto has kept Kallen’s body all this time. Would it be the same if he used Zi-O II directly in modern times?

You are right. Chen Shi also planned to do so at the beginning, but considering Otto’s suspicious character, if he did not show the whole process to him and let him get the answer himself, even if Otto pretended to agree to him later, he might still trip him up behind his back.

It doesn’t matter if Chen Shi and Otto compete in a battle of wits and courage, but he is here to reverse all the tragedies of Honkai Impact 3rd and to be a courier for Flame Head. If Otto is allowed to do some outrageous things, this man who even the world will calls extraordinary may really recreate some of the “positive” plots of the original work.

Chen Shi can have fun with the things in the video, make some harmless jokes with the characters, or even entertain himself with some bad jokes, but he doesn’t want to make these kids who have already tried hard once suffer again.

That’s why he provided Otto with such thoughtful service, eliminating the possibility of misunderstanding at the root.

Otto looked at Kallen sleeping in his arms and finally came back to his senses from his trance. He looked at Chen Shi with complicated eyes, and after thinking for a long time, he finally chose to speak.

“Who are you exactly?”

“Didn’t I tell you that I’m Abelut…”

“No, I’m not asking about your superficial identity. You should understand what I mean.”

“This is it.”

Chen Shi grinned and thought that Otto was the first person to ask him this question.

“For some reason, I can’t tell you yet, but if you really want an answer, you can regard me as a retired demon king~”

“The Demon King…”

Otto was slightly stunned, and his clever brain immediately found a corresponding character in the video. At the same time as he suddenly realized it, many questions emerged in his mind.

But he knew that the other party had already said all he could and it was impossible for him to reveal more.

However, now that Kallen has been resurrected, Otto has an obligation to protect the world with Kallen, and considering that Mebius in the video has done a lot of things with his voice, he has to make things clear.

“I understand. As a thank you for reviving Kallen, I will keep this secret for you. However, I still want to confirm one thing in the end.”

“go ahead.”

Although Chen Shi felt that it didn’t matter whether Otto kept it a secret or not, he didn’t say anything. He knew what Otto was thinking, so he smiled and said.

“Are your actions really just to undo all the tragedy? Can we really trust you?”
