Previous civilization, headquarters of the Fire Moths.
"It seems like we've already integrated into the place. Hehe~ Hua, I didn't expect that you could open up to others more there~"
After Alicia opened her eyes, she teased Hua Lai with a smile on her face.
After the Fusion Warrior Team was completely disbanded, she has been having a stern face.
It's like there's no hope for the future, which is really heartbreaking.
"call..."
Hua did not respond after hearing Alicia's teasing.
He just leaned his hands on the sofa and looked at the ceiling of the headquarters.
"Aliceia, what do you think?"
"Hehe~ If I'm not mistaken, Hua is asking me what I think of Yae Sakura? She is a very cute girl! If possible, I really hope to introduce her to Sakura, I think they will have a lot in common~"
Alicia clapped her hands gently, looking eager to try.
Of course she knew this was impossible, but as long as she thought of two girls who looked extremely similar holding their sister's hands, sitting together, talking and laughing, drinking tea and eating desserts.
But as long as I think of this, a wonderful picture will unconsciously appear in my mind~
"That's enough, Alicia. Let's stop joking here."
Hua turned his head and looked at the cute girl who looked like a fairy.
"You should be aware of the consequences of telling Sakura about our findings."
"Hua, you are afraid that Ling will... Ling has been well behaved in the base. As long as she is okay, Ying will always come back."
Alicia's words seemed to be meant to convince Hua, but also seemed to be meant to convince herself.
A special Honkai energy reaction was detected in Ling's body, but she did not have the ability of a Herrscher and still retained human consciousness.
However, people who were full of fear of the Herrscher still brought her back to the base and imprisoned her, and Dr. Mei was responsible for studying the secrets of Ling.
"Do you believe this yourself?"
"Haha, Hua~ don't be so pessimistic, otherwise it will be bad for your skin."
"Phew...I hope so."
Hua said nothing more and listened quietly to Alicia talking about her views on the people in the live broadcast room.
Time passed by little by little, her thoughts gradually diverged, and she began to analyze the hidden messages of the game Honkai Impact 3rd.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in her head and she discovered something unusual.
"Why do the protagonists Kiana and Theresa have white hair? Everyone else's hair color is normal. And Kaslana... Kaslana? What kind of family does she belong to?"
Hua felt that he had finally found the key point, but he couldn't figure out what the connection was.
Perhaps, as the main storyline of the game continues to advance, I can get the answers I want...
Fu Hua thought truthfully.
...
Ding-a-ling!!!
Beichen was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by the sound of an alarm clock.
"Why is it so noisy! I didn't set the alarm!?"
He fumbled for his phone impatiently, and when he opened it he found that it was not the alarm that was ringing.
Rather, it was the communicator installed by Tianming in the dormitory that was making the sound!
"All staff, put on your clothes immediately and gather at the outer space port! This is the order of the bishop, everyone must obey it!"
"All staff, put on your clothes immediately and gather at the outer space port! This is the order of the bishop, everyone must obey it!"
"All staff, put on your clothes immediately and gather at the outer space port! This is the order of the bishop, everyone must obey it!"
The communicator played Yulandel's voice three times in a row, and then it became quiet.
Hearing the sound, Beichen realized that something big had happened, so he began to put on his clothes in a daze.
But as he put on his clothes, he felt a little puzzled.
Yulandel? Why is she the one who notified us to gather this time?
Where's Rita? Where's Rita, the perfect maid?
Isn't it usually her responsibility to convey Archbishop Otto's orders? Is she being lazy this time?
"Forget it. They have nothing to do with me. Just don't be late."
After saying this, Beichen opened the door and rushed to the outer space port along with many other Tianming employees who were woken up like him...
Chapter 45: The opportunity to be promoted to a full-time employee has finally come?
When Beichen arrived at the assembly point at the outer airport, it was already crowded with employees.
Everyone was wearing the same uniform and standing in a square formation like an army ready to go.
In front of everyone was a metal platform that had already been built.
On the platform, Yulandel and the Valkyries of the Undying Blade stood at attention with their hands behind their backs, facing everyone.
As Valkyries, they have outstanding figures, heroic demeanors, and each of them has a heart-pounding beauty.
Many people in the audience began to whisper to each other after seeing them.
"Isn't that Youlandel? After the last incident, I heard on the radio that she was the strongest Valkyrie here?"
"Isn't it usually the maid Rita who notifies us? Why did she change her role?"
"A big blonde with blue eyes, so cool!"
"Hey, brother. Why do you think she called us here? Was it to inform us temporary workers that we will get a pay raise?"
"You're overthinking it. How can she talk about salary increase together? Wait a minute. Anyway, she will explain it clearly when everyone is here."
After answering a question from a colleague, Beichen said no more.
Most of these people who were whispering were temporary workers like himself.
Because I was not officially included in the Destiny system, I was not even told what Honkai and Valkyrie were when I joined the company.
The only information I was told about Honkai was what Rita said at the beginning: working hard to protect the future of mankind?
It was not until Theresa and her men attacked the Skyward Headquarters a while ago, and Kiana awakened the Law of Space, that Skyward decided to give some explanations to the temporary workers.
So...Otto is really a fucking dog!
This kind of work that could potentially cost my life, and they didn't even give me advance notice?
The boss of a black-hearted company, bah!
Beichen was complaining in his heart about his boss's inaction, but he heard Yulandel on the platform speak in a loud voice.
"I called you together today to explain something."
Looking in the direction where the voice came from, Beichen found that Yulandel was standing with her hands behind her back and her chest held high, facing everyone.
Today, she was wearing a relatively ordinary Valkyrie Glory combat uniform, which was a bit similar to a military uniform. Her round thighs were covered with black stockings, and the military boots on her small feet made her look particularly cool.
But today, Yulandel's voice was very soft, making people feel...is she embarrassed?
"It's an explanation of what happened not long ago."
After hearing her words, everyone on the platform stopped discussing and looked intently at this strange Valkyrie.
Beichen was also among these people, and was quite curious about what kind of explanation this Valkyrie was going to give.
A public apology? That was unlikely. After all, how could a Valkyrie of Destiny apologize in such a lowly way? Otto didn't seem like the kind of person who would let her do that.
Are you really planning to raise wages?
Beichen pondered secretly, until Youlandel spoke, he realized that he had thought too simply.
"The undertaking we are carrying out concerns the survival of mankind, but human society today is not ready for it."
"For this, we need to keep your secrets."
After Yulandel slowly explained why the secret was kept, she began to talk clearly about the solution to the emergency.
"Originally, the selection of new employees by the Destiny is extremely complicated, but you have already witnessed the occurrence of the collapse."
"So, the bishop has decided to test you."
Beichen was stunned when he heard this: "Assessment?"
Other temporary workers were also stunned.
They whispered to each other for a while, and then raised their objections to the Valkyrie on the platform:
"What exactly is this assessment? What happens to those who fail it?"
"Yeah, you won't just destroy us humanely, right?"
Seeing that everyone was a little excited, Yulandel raised her hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"Those who pass the assessment will become official employees of Tianming, but this also means that you will join the cause of fighting against Houkai."
"As for those who fail, don't worry. We will give you a large severance package and ask you to sign a confidentiality agreement before you are fired."
When the temporary workers heard that they would receive a large sum of money after being fired, they became quieter after being very excited just now.
Beichen looked around at these unambitious guys. Although he felt a little disdainful, he could also understand them.
After all, as long as you can make a living, it doesn't matter where you work.
Now that others have expressed their willingness to compensate you, wouldn't it be nice to take the money and enjoy yourself for a while before finding a job?
Not long after Beichen withdrew his gaze, a careful temporary worker asked a key question.
"Uh, that...Yulandel, right?"
"Yes, is there anything wrong with this sir?"
"I wonder, what would happen if the secret got leaked?"
After hearing this, the temporary workers all turned their eyes to the blonde beauty on the platform.
It was in such a public scene that Yulandel smiled.
"Haha. We have some connections with politicians from various countries. We will help them deal with the damage caused by Houkai, and they can help us deal with the people who cause trouble."
Everyone under the podium: "…"
Now that things have come to this, what else can I say?
A temporary worker is looking for death if he wants to go against Tianming, a world-class company.
In short, after a brief explanation, everyone was taken into the secret room in the outer space port for assessment.
The process was quite quick, and basically everyone came out in about ten minutes.
So after the people in front finished their assessment, it was soon Beichen's turn.
Under the guidance of the Immortal Blade team, he entered a room with all white walls.
Inside the room, there was a table and chairs facing each other.
Yulandel was sitting on a chair near the inside. When she saw someone coming, she looked up and smiled.
He pointed to the instrument on the table.
"Please place your hands on the instrument."
Beichen placed his hand on the semi-elliptical instrument, and soon felt the electric current flowing through his palm.
"Okay. Please fill out the form, and we will notify you of the results of the preliminary test tomorrow."
After taking the form handed over by Youlandel, Beichen began to fill in the questions on it.
As a result, the first question made him frown.
Do you consider yourself human?
