Herrschers are a natural disaster.
The hurricane that penetrated the sky and the earth swallowed up the clouds and the ice and snow covering the entire snowfield. The exploding weapons of steel created one melting pit after another, and the hole in the ground caused by the black hole's pull was as vast as the abyss of hell.
So, one can emphasize again that the Herrscher is a natural disaster, a conscious natural disaster that can accurately distinguish between humans and non-humans and then inflict destruction.
When the hurricane calmed down and the chaotic gravity returned to normal, the earth's undulating shape changed completely, resembling surging waves. The damage caused by the wind fluid threads and black holes made the ground look like a child's scribbled paper, unrecognizable and shocking.
Delta looked at the sky in the distance, then to Welt who was smiling and motionless. She suddenly frowned and flicked a thread.
Then Welt-, no, the Phantom disappeared after being cut.
"It's fine if you were planning on a sneak attack, but you actually ran away without telling me. You really don't follow martial ethics, old senior," Delta sighed helplessly and descended from the sky.
When she came to a pile of dirt, she saw the pile of gravel shaking. After a while, a dirty, muddy hand emerged from under the dirt.
"Wow! Is this the famous scene from a horror movie. Why didn't I bring a camera?"
"Pah, pah, pah! Lord Delta, I'm sorry to make you laugh," a dusty Valkyrie replied awkwardly after crawling out of the pile of dirt and spitting out sand from her mouth.
Delta spread her little hands, then snapped her fingers. The agile wind surrounded the other party, soon restoring the damaged Valkyrie to a clean appearance.
"Do you know where the woman with the gem ran to?"
"Well, satellite images are no longer useful. We tried to track her with drones and Easier Mechs, but you saw that they were all destroyed by the Herrscher of Reason. So..."
"So we can't chase her. Then find a way to contact Archbishop Otto. I've been working overtime all night. Let me sleep for a while," Delta said as she fell on the Valkyrie's back and fell asleep peacefully as soon as she finished speaking.
The Valkyrie was left with a confused look on her face. She turned her head and saw the cherry-like pink face resting on her shoulder.
Looking up at the messy, unrecognizable land, she realized she didn't have a communicator in her hand, and she couldn't see the figure of her lost colleagues. She froze in place, at a loss.
...
"Lord Delta... Lord Delta..."
"Hmm? Is it dawn?"
"It's been dawn for a long time. It's afternoon now."
"Who am I? Where am I? Hiss!"
Delta sucked her saliva blankly. The Valkyries who had met up all covered their mouths, their shoulders trembling, wanting to laugh but not daring to.
The Valkyrie who had been carrying Delta all the way was the most patient and handed a communicator to Delta steadily.
"Lord Delta, Lord Archbishop... poof... is looking for you."
Delta blinked blankly, then took it as if nothing had happened, and saw Otto's image.
"Hello, can I go home after work, Archbishop?"
"Wendy is on the Hyperion, heading to the Anti-Entropy East Shenzou Sea Base. Calculating the time, she will arrive soon."
"... I want three times the overtime pay."
"I'll give you ten times. Work hard, Delta."
Otto ended the communication with a smile, and it was obvious that his mood had improved.
In five hundred years, he knew very well how stupid impotent rage was. If the Serenity Gem is lost, it's lost.
If it doesn't work, take the Gem of Haste out of the Vermillion Knight Eclipse, or pay Delta to input more power to the Gem of Desire and then take it out which can play a role in awakening the Herrscher of the Void.
So, the actual loss is not so unacceptable.
Besides, isn't it still possible to take it back?
There is no need to affect your rationality for this thing. Instead, it is not necessarily a bad thing to use this accident to catch the big fish and rats that are currently sinking under the water and take a good look at the real situation.
Otto is very open-minded, but Delta looks depressed.
"Lord Delta, are you hungry?" a Valkyrie asked carefully, holding some compressed dry food and bagged water in both hands.
"Gu~" x N
The sound of hunger came from each Valkyrie.
Delta looked around at the dusty Valkyries and tilted her head.
"You don't want to eat?"
"Well, the food we found is limited, and it should be given priority to the highest-level Valkyries. We have received strict training, so it doesn't matter if we go hungry for a few days. We will be fine when the reinforcement team arrives."
"Forget it. I am a Herrscher; it doesn't matter whether I eat or not. You can divide it among yourselves."
In fact, it is mainly because of her good life and the picky taste, and she has no interest in dry food.
But the Valkyries around them obviously didn't think so. I don't know what they were thinking, but they all showed flattered and touched expressions.
"You are different from what we imagined before."
"Oh."
"To be honest, we just learned that the new S-rank Valkyrie is a so-called artificial Herrscher. We were a little unable to accept it. After all, common sense tells us that Herrscher is the biggest enemy of mankind."
"You have high authority, and you can know my true identity."
"After all, you are also a senior A-rank Valkyrie. Unfortunately, after carrying out a mission with Lady Rita, I knew that I would never be able to reach the S-rank in this life."
"It's a pity. S-rank has the right to long-term vacation... But I suspect I was fooled. I have been an S-rank for only a few months, and I have been on business trips several times. It's not as leisurely as promised when I was recruited!" Delta said with deep resentment.
Although, the reason for the business trip was that I was causing trouble.
After complaining, Delta looked at these young ladies with some guilt, Not to mention playing guerrilla warfare with me all night, they are still so embarrassed now, and they have to blow the cold wind in this wilderness for a day or two.
But the drama in the East Shenzou Sea has already begun. That stupid Wendy might run into a dangerous place without her watching.
It is safest to take care of your own people.
Delta sighed, flew up, said goodbye to them, and rushed to the East Shenzou Sea.
...
The East Shenzou Sea Base, an increasingly large and stable sea fortress, is still actively expanding at this time.
In the noisy and lively marginal area, Ana hung a safety rope and went down to the deck to nail steel nails. The safety helmet that fit her size was firmly tied to her chin.
She looked at Durandal and Yae Sakura sitting on the steel bars opposite of her and blinked blankly.
"Durandal, why are you here?"
"Ana, why are you here?"
The two close friends who had not seen each other for a long time asked at the same time, blinking the same innocent and confused big eyes.
Yae Sakura tilted her head in confusion, and question marks appeared on her head one after another.
"Ana, have you finished reinforcing the nails?"
"Boss, it's almost there. Go watch the steel plate over there. I forgot to count just now. I'll go up there after I finish this. I'm an A-level Valkyrie and won't get hurt."
"Okay, you'll have to work hard for a while."
"Sure!"
Ana handled the foreman skillfully, holding the electric drill, thinking for a while, and excitedly swung on the safety rope.
"You're here to save me, right, Durandal? Great, I thought you had forgotten me. I knew you would save me. We're good friends, hahaha!"
"Uh, actually not. We're here to find the Gem of Serenity."
The air suddenly became quiet.
Ana hung there motionless.
Durandal also lowered her head in shame.
Only Yae Sakura looked at the two of them and regretfully found that she hadn't brought potato chips and a coke. It was a mistake.
