No, Jingwei, this glaringly obvious giant robot doesn't seem like something that could be brought about by Stigmata Awakening, right?
And the Project Bunny even ambushed Raiden Mei in the restroom of the Senba Academy.
Weren't you squatting on the rooftop of the teaching building? Didn't you see it?
Wait a moment, it seems that from Fu Hua's perspective at the time, she really couldn't see the appearance of the Project Bunny...
Then what about Kiana? She should...
The girl turned her head and found Kiana's eyes shining brightly.
Unconsciously, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva and lowered her voice, asking in a somewhat ingratiating tone, "Um, Bronya, can I touch your robot?"
"Smack!"
The Valkyrie slapped her forehead, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
This white puffball is also quite confused. Obviously, she didn't see it clearly at the time.
Luo Lin recalled for a moment, remembering that Project Bunny had directly smashed the wall outside the restroom, causing a burst of "mist," and it even supplemented several smoke bombs. The scene was chaotic...
Perhaps among the four people present, only Luo Lin remembered the appearance of Project Bunny.
The black-haired Valkyrie observed Bronya from the corner of her eye. She found that the silver-haired girl with twin tails was relying on her "injured" status to hide behind an almost expressionless face while carefully observing the reactions of the others.
Kiana was not afraid. She already considered Bronya a friend, and in a safe environment where she didn't need to be constantly vigilant, her IQ plummeted, quickly approaching the level of a single-celled organism.
As for Raiden Mei, after spending a few days with her, Bronya had more or less figured out her temperament. As long as she went along with her, everything would be fine.
The main problem now was the two Valkyries in front of her, Fu Hua and Luo Lin.
Bronya still remembered Fu Hua's battle with the Pseudo Herrscher in the warehouse. She believed that this gray-haired girl, who could exchange blows with such a monster (from what she saw, Fu Hua almost defeated the Pseudo Herrscher), must be a combat specialist...
As for the other one...
Bronya took a deep breath and stared at the distinctive Valkyrie uniform on the other person, her mind spinning rapidly.
AE and Schicksal are not often at odds on the surface; most of the time, the intelligence departments of the two organizations clash in the shadows.
As Cocolia's "good daughter," Bronya naturally understood the value of the Schicksal Intelligence Department.
Those Valkyries belonging to the intelligence department, with their powerful physical qualities, coupled with the absurd techniques and tactical skills they gained after being equipped with Schicksal's individual equipment, as well as their surplus loyalty in most cases, effectively offset the technological advantages that AE had gained in modern technology with great difficulty.
If most of the Schicksal Valkyries didn't go head-to-head with Honkai, and only a few Valkyries were qualified and capable of entering the intelligence department, the Valkyries who came out to perform field missions would be even fewer...
Although on a global scale, the number of field Valkyries from the intelligence department is extremely small, encountering them means that Anti-Entropy's plans will encounter unexpected setbacks.
And in front of her was a black-haired Valkyrie who had demonstrated impressive combat capabilities before—clearly, she was an elite of the intelligence department. Bronya didn't underestimate Luo Lin's presence at all.
Luo Lin didn't know what evaluation the silver-haired girl had made of her, but Senti inside her could feel what Bronya was brewing in her mind, as well as the obvious nervousness overflowing from her.
Senti looked at Bronya with interest for a while, and finally spoke up, "Luo Lin, there seems to be something wrong with this person."
"Of course, I know she has a problem, I'm quite familiar with her... Oh, maybe not so familiar here."
Luo Lin rubbed her temples and replied in her mind, "But now she's an acquaintance of my acquaintance... I guess Seels is still frantically 'calling' me, she's probably started squeaking like a groundhog in distress, right?"
The black-haired girl sensed the reaction of the Key of Revelations. Sure enough, Seele was still persistently trying to contact Luo Lin.
Seeing Bronya, Seele was no longer satisfied with only observing the real world with her "eyes."
She now wanted to communicate directly with Bronya, to know what had happened in the past days, why Bronya's legs were unable to move, why she, who used to be able to show a warm smile, now had a blank expression, and even her voice had lost its fluctuations...
"Please... Sister Luo Lin..."
"Why does it sound like I'm bullying you? Clearly, I haven't done anything yet."
Listening to Seele's tearful voice, Luo Lin shook her head helplessly, "If I could, I would let you communicate with Bronya too, after all, I also want to gain her trust... but the barrier between the Sea of Quanta and the real world is too thick. It's already a pleasant surprise that you can use the Key of Revelations to observe my surroundings. As for speaking..."
Luo Lin put her hand into her pocket, pretending to take something out, and secretly used the Key of Revelations to condense a golden hairpin. Then, she handed the hairpin to Bronya.
"What's this...?"
"It's a little gift from me to you? To celebrate the start of a new life?"
The silver-haired girl looked at the hairpin in her hand, flipping it over and inspecting it carefully. No matter how you looked at it, it was a very ordinary hairpin, with only the intricate hollow pattern looking extremely exquisite.
—But the person who gave this thing is a Valkyrie from the Schicksal Intelligence Department. Could it really not be some kind of listening device?
Bronya remained silent for a few seconds before finally putting it on her head, letting Project Bunny push her to the mirror to check the effect.
"Just now, Seele, you should be able to feel the connection between the Key of Revelations and the hairpin. Try talking to your Sister Bronya now."
"Sister Bronya!"
The urgent shout rang in Luo Lin's ears. The black-haired Valkyrie crossed her arms and observed Bronya's expression.
"Sister Bronya! Can you hear me? I'm Seele! Seele Vollerei!"
"...It seems quite good. Thank you, Luo Lin."
Bronya didn't hear Seele's shout at all. She fiddled with her bangs for a few moments, then took off the hairpin and put it in her pocket.
She should find an opportunity to lock it in a signal-proof box... the silver-haired girl thought.
"How could this be..."
Seele's voice sounded somewhat desperate as she murmured, "Clearly, Luo Lin, you can hear what I'm saying..."
"She's different from Bronya, Seele. Not to mention the fact that Luo Lin possesses that 'System,' she also has very obvious marks from the Sea of Quanta..."
Veliona didn't know when she had awakened, calmly saying, "We can borrow the resonance of this mark, use the power of quantum, penetrate the barrier between the sea and reality, and observe the situation inside the world. But the power of quantum is not something everyone can understand. Now, it seems that Bronya doesn't have much talent in quantum..."
In the Quantum Sea, Veliona held the despondent Seele in her arms while wiping away the tears from her eyes.
"For her, the words we speak through the Key of Revelations are just some untraceable strange energy fluctuations."
"What? I still have a mark on me? Oh... I see, otherwise, how could the big shots chase me everywhere without a mark." Luo Lin raised an eyebrow, not particularly surprised by what Veliona said; she had been prepared for it long ago.
"Don't be so disappointed, Seele. Besides using your Fist to open the door of the Sea of Quanta, I may have other ways to let you talk to Bronya... "
The black-haired Valkyrie opened her system panel and looked at the newly added character in the Valkyrie list.
She had short black-blue shoulder-length hair, ocean-blue eyes like the sea, wearing a gorgeous white dress with flowers, and holding a scythe with dream-like colors.
And behind her, there was another figure exactly like her in appearance, but the tones of her hair and clothes were completely different from the calm ocean blue, with a crimson-black hue.
