Fantasies That Descend on Collapse

Reaching out and stroking its cheek, Teresa said to it in a crying voice:

"Don't do it again..."

The originally emotionless pale golden pupils fluctuated for the first time when they heard Teresa's words, and at the same time, a painful expression appeared on their faces, and then it let go of the hand that was holding Einstein's neck , after placing Teresa on the ground, it tore apart the space again and left here.

"We... survived..."

After discovering that it had indeed left here, Tesla sat on the ground leaning against the wall and let out a sigh, his expression also becoming dazed.

The next day, Mandate of Heaven Headquarters, Bishop's Office

"Are the casualties this time so small?"

Otto was sitting on the office chair, holding the fourth Honkai combat report in his hand, but the situation recorded on it made him a little surprised.

In this battle, Anti-Entropy lost more than [-] Titan mechs, and only one of the Valkyries sent by Destiny was slightly injured. Compared with the second Honkai, the loss this time is nothing at all. , This is also what makes Otto feel the strangest.

"There has not been any death, and there is no residual Houkai energy detected in Siberia. This is really strange."

You must know that in the second Honkai, Destiny paid the price of a whole snow wolf team to kill the Second Herrsrscher. Compared with it, the Honkai that happened in Siberia this time is just like a play , there is no comparison between the two.

"However, did the Fourth Herrscher not kill anyone?"

Creatures like Herrschers were born with the purpose of destroying human beings, but now this report tells him that the Fourth Herrscher has never killed anyone, which would have been a fantasy in the past.

'This Herrscher is really gentle, I don't know why it always feels a bit like you... Heh, what the hell am I thinking about?I didn't expect that I would also be confused...'

After laughing at himself, Otto immediately vetoed his own idea. The other party was the Herrscher who wanted to destroy mankind, and he would associate her with this kind of monster. Now it seems that the reason why he has the kind of monster just now Thoughts, there must be something wrong with his brain.

"Forget it, forget about it, it's time to visit my lovely granddaughter."

Putting the combat report in the drawer, Otto got up and left the office. After all, the only Valkyrie who was injured in action this time was Theresa. It's a bit too unreasonable, right?

Chapter 21 Confidentially

The door of the ward was opened, and two nurses who had finished their work were coming out. After the door was closed, nurse A couldn't help but sigh:

"Ah! That little girl is so cute! I don't know whose family it is."

When this sentence reached Nurse B's ears, she looked at Nurse A with slightly surprised eyes, and then said in a strange tone:

"You really don't know her identity?"

"How would I know? I've only been working here for less than half a month."

"Eh...I forgot about that."

After hearing the explanation given by Nurse A, Nurse B smiled awkwardly, and then told her the identity of the person in the ward:

"She is not an ordinary little girl. She is not only the granddaughter of our Archbishop of Destiny, but also an S-rank Valkyrie. There are rumors that the Archbishop is very precious to her. This time she was injured and hospitalized. Presumably the Archbishop will Come here and see her yourself."

"Is she actually the granddaughter of the archbishop! No wonder she's so cute!"

After learning of Teresa's identity, Nurse A had a look of surprise on her face, but soon she seemed to think of something, and then asked Nurse B in a curious tone:

"By the way, speaking of the archbishop, have you seen what the archbishop looks like?"

"Of course I've seen it!"

After hearing Nurse A's question, Nurse B showed a proud look on her face. After seeing Nurse A's envious expression, she slowly said:

"About more than ten years ago, the archbishop's granddaughter was also admitted to this hospital because of injuries. At that time, the archbishop personally sent her here. Although I just glanced at it from a distance, at that time I I have firmly remembered the appearance of the archbishop in my heart."

"The archbishop has blond hair that is as bright as the sun, and the green eyes are full of worry, which is matched with the handsome face of the bishop, ah! Your lord bishop is so handsome!"

Having said that, Nurse B had an intoxicated look on her face, it seemed that she had fallen into her own world.

"Snapped!"

"Why did you hit me!"

Nurse B, who was still in a fugue state, was slapped back to reality by Nurse A. Just when she was about to lose her temper, Nurse A's words made her stand there in a daze:

"Is that person the bishop you're talking about?"

"What did you say!"

Looking in the direction where Nurse A pointed, there was a blond man walking towards them slowly with a gift bag in his hand.

When he walked in front of the two, he stopped his footsteps, and a gentle smile appeared on his face:

"Excuse me, which room is Theresa's ward?"

"My lord, that room is Miss Teresa's ward!"

"Really, thank you."

After thanking Nurse B, the man pushed open the door and entered the ward. After hearing the man's thanks, Nurse B immediately lowered her head and trembled slightly.

"Hey, are you okay?"

After seeing nurse b's reaction, nurse a asked about her situation worriedly, but nurse b's answer made her face full of black lines:

"Master Bishop! Thank you!"

"..."

'Um?Was there any sound outside just now? '

Just when Otto entered the ward and closed the door, he vaguely seemed to hear someone calling him, but after realizing that he hadn’t told anyone about his itinerary this time, he decisively took the unknown voice outside as his own misheard. up.

"Ah! Bishop..."

"Shh!"

Jizi was sitting on the chair next to Teresa's hospital bed. When she saw Otto entering the ward, she immediately stood up and saluted, but Otto stopped her first.

"I remember your name is... Wuliangta Himeko, right?"

"Yes, Bishop."

Putting the gift bag in his hand on the table beside him, Otto called out Jizi's name from his own memory, and after getting her affirmation, he continued:

"How is Teresa doing now?"

"Theresa has fallen asleep now... I heard from the doctor that her body is fine, but she seems to have been hit hard, so she is not in a good mood now."

Jizi's answer was also expected by Otto, seeing his best friend who had passed away for 14 years suddenly appear in front of him as a Herrscher, if it were someone else, it probably wouldn't be much better.

'Aren't you in good spirits...'

Mental wounds are different from physical wounds. Physical wounds can be healed with medicine, but mental wounds can only be healed by a long time.

Walking to Teresa's bed and looking at Teresa who had fallen into a deep sleep, Otto pondered for a moment, then made his own request to Jizi beside him:

"Miss Jizi, can you please leave for a while? I want to be alone with Teresa for a while."

"Okay, my lord bishop, I will be on standby outside. If you need anything, just call my name."

Saying that, Jizi bent down and bowed to Otto, then gently opened the door and walked out.

After Jizi left, only Otto and Teresa were left in the huge ward.

After coming to the chair beside the hospital bed and sitting down, Otto saw Teresa's current appearance.

Teresa's originally rosy and delicate face was now so pale that there was no trace of blood at all. She was frowning now, her eyes were closed tightly, and there were still tears in the corners of her eyes, which made Otto feel a little distressed for her.

"Sure enough, 14 years ago, Cecilia's departure still hit Teresa too hard..."

Whispering softly, Otto reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of Teresa's eyes. He did this series of actions very carefully, for fear that if he was not careful, he would wake up the girl lying on the hospital bed.

As if feeling the movement of Otto's hand, Teresa's eyebrows moved slightly, which made Otto hold his breath in fright and immediately retracted his hand to wipe her tears. After making sure that Teresa was not After waking up, he took a deep breath, and at the same time he let go of the hanging heart.

"Theresa... You should hate me... Also, in your eyes, I am the chief culprit for Cecilia's death..."

Looking at Teresa who was still asleep, Otto said what he hadn't been able to say to her in the past 14 years:

"I'm really sorry Teresa. I didn't think that doing that would kill Cecilia. I just...wanted to rely on the Second Herrscher's ability to see that person again..."

In Otto's original plan, he wanted to successfully awaken the Second Herrscher, then use her power to successfully resurrect Kallen, and kill her after doing all this, but what he didn't expect was that the second The Herrscher's growth rate far exceeded his expectations, so much so that it led to this tragedy in the end.

"This apology is actually what I wanted to tell you 14 years ago, but you have never paid attention to me. Actually... Forget it, it's too late to say anything now..."

As he spoke, Otto sighed heavily. After all, 14 years have passed, and it is too late to say anything now. It should be difficult for me and Teresa to return to the previous relationship. Alright.

After saying this, Otto fell silent, and then stared intently at Theresa who was lying on the hospital bed. At this moment, there was only the sound of Theresa's regular breathing in the whole ward.

"Is it already this time... I still want to stay with you for a while..."

After a long time, Otto raised his head and looked at the clock hanging on the wall of the ward. Before he knew it, a full hour had passed.

"So, goodbye...Theresa..."

Reluctantly stood up from the chair, Otto said goodbye softly to the sleeping Teresa, then turned and walked out of the ward.

Chapter 22 ends

'I... where is this? '

Feeling the chill coming from his body, Luo Chen opened his eyes, but the scene in front of him made him a little surprised.

'I'm... in the water? '

The sun shines through the ice into the bottom of the sea and emits a soft blue light. Luochen seems to be able to see some ice floes floating on the water through the sea. After seeing these scenes, Luochen immediately understood where he is now. s position.

'I was...shouldn't I be on the Siberian snowfield? '

Although he didn't quite understand why he appeared here, he still swam up to the surface immediately.

"call..."

It took a lot of effort to successfully reach the shore, and took a deep breath of the long-awaited air. Now Luo Chen was so exhausted that he couldn't open his eyes.

'While I was unconscious...what the hell happened? '

He obtained the stigmata after talking with the dead Cecilia in the snowy field of Siberia before, but he appeared here in a blink of an eye. There must be something wrong with it.

'Can't remember...no memory at all...'

He thought carefully about the memories in his mind, but found nothing at all, plus the clothes soaked in water and the long hair wrapped around his neck, all this made Luo Chen feel very uncomfortable.
