"Just followed me here." Bronya nodded, "It seems that Brother Liu Bai, you are involved in something quite big." Bronya also called Liu Bai brother just like Seele did - after all, being cute wouldn't cost her any weight. Besides...Liu Bai really made her feel very friendly and reliable. Rosalin glanced at Liu Bai. Well, judging by the way this man acted, it’s not surprising that he was involved in something big – he hacked the deputy minister to death just two days after coming here. This kind of action will not be easy to come by. He's only been here for two days! His decisiveness can be said to be full - especially since he usually looks harmless. This is one of the reasons why Rosaline doesn't want to have too much contact with Liu Bai. In Rosalin's memory, the last person who seemed harmless to people and animals but acted decisively and ruthlessly was called Otto.
At most, Liu Bai is more humane. If the situation were changed to Otto's style, she would probably become like Kugavina now, a puppet who obeys orders blindly. Although Rosalin is very jumpy, she doesn't think that her brain is better than people like Otto, so she stays away from Liu Bai as much as possible. "…Then I think I know why Dr. Tesla is in a bad mood." Liu Bai scratched his head. There is no doubt that Tesla is waiting for me to come to you, or maybe it is ready to come to you, and then fly away by itself... "But Dr. Tesla is usually not too harsh on strangers, so you don't have to worry too much, Brother Liu Bai." Bronya soothed. She didn't want Liu Bai to have any shadow - it would not be conducive to negotiations. "I hope you don't say anything too cruel..." Liu Bai sighed. Afterwards, Rosaline chatted with Bronya about family matters. Liu Bai was listening nearby, organizing the information as he listened. Well... no experiments took place in the orphanage this time. Instead, the children in the orphanage will receive education from the doctors of Anti-Entropy. I have to say that Doctor Anti-Entropy is full of heavyweights. Planck, Einstein, Tesla, Edison, Schrödinger. In addition to these famous ones, second-tier scientists like Raiden Ryoma and Himeko and ordinary scientists will also come. Occasionally, Leanna, who was once the strongest person by destiny, would come here to teach the children martial arts, and would take those with potential away for further study. In addition, Liu Bai also learned that the person who is actually responsible for running the orphanage is Xing Mal. A person who has little presence in the main storyline of the game originally had the opportunity to become a "famous actress", but unfortunately she appeared as a villain in the comics.
She was a naughty child when she was young, but when she grew up, Xingmaer took care of the orphans as a "sister" in the Cocolia Orphanage. It's very harmonious over there... "So, Bronya, you still have that feeling?" "Yeah, it always has. Even Xing said it has." Bronya nodded, and as if to take care of Liu Bai, the two of them deliberately had a deeper conversation. But this topic is not necessary. Bronya immediately changed the subject after answering. "The topic of the riddle that people were concerned about suddenly ended." "…I just feel like there's a subtle feeling that 'something' is missing' in the orphan witch's courtyard." Bronya saw that Liu Bai was curious and replied indifferently. "But no one knows what it is. It may be a simple physical sensation. Only Xing, Xi'er and I feel this way." "I think it's a strange feeling caused by the problem of Honkai energy adaptability, right?" Rosaline gave an explanation, and it was not the first time Bronya had heard this explanation. What's the point of having an explanation? Isn't it still unresolved? Bronya said as if there was no need to continue this topic: "We will soon arrive at the orphanage, everyone please sit tight." ---- Uh, it won’t be unblocked until Thursday or Friday, so I have no motivation to post… Today's update Volume 1: Chapter 198 Do you want to play? "Follow me." After the plane landed, Rosalind whispered a reminder to Liu Bai before getting up. Although she was a little afraid, she chose to take side no matter what. Liu Bai followed behind her, and she could help to block a few words. Moreover, from her point of view, she hopes that Liu Bai and Anti-Entropy can reach an agreement. Liu Bai nodded. Rosaline, the head of the Far North branch, walked in front, followed by him, the target person, and Kafka, the secretary, in third place. Finally, came Peruvian, the accompanying A-level Valkyrie. The four people got off the plane, and Xier and a girl with half purple and half pink hair and her left eye covered by short hair were ready to greet them. "Welcome, Aunt Rosalin, Mr. Liu Bai." The girl bowed slightly to Rosalin and Liu Bai. "Xing... Heh, why don't Kokolia and Tesla come out to greet us personally for this kind of thing?" Rosalyn frowned slightly. This is somewhat against etiquette - Xing is only the person in charge of the orphanage, and Cocolia is the highest person in charge of this area.
Even without talking about Tesla, Cocolia should come out to greet it. Xing naturally knew what Rosaline was dissatisfied about, and gave an apologetic smile to Rosaline and Liu Bai. "I'm so sorry, Mom, she's still discussing things with Dr. Tesla." Rosalin showed a slightly mocking expression when she heard this. Negotiate? It's to appease. After all, that Tesla... didn't really seem to be good at diplomacy—well, she wasn't good at it either. "Is that so? Then please take us in, Xing." Rosaline didn't ask any more questions. This reason was enough for Liu Bai to hear. "Liu Bai, this is the Xing that Bronya and I mentioned earlier. She is the person in charge of this orphanage. As for the other one... you have met her before, so I won't introduce her." "Hello." "Hello, my name is Xing Maer, you can just call me Xing." Xing was slightly shaken when shaking hands. Rosalin pouted beside him. She had a face that looked very good at deceiving little girls... "Xi'er, long time no see." "Hello, long time no see, Brother Liu Bai." Xier nodded shyly. "Guys, please come with me." Xing touched her chest and bowed, making an inviting gesture, and glanced at Peruvian. Peruvian naturally knew what was going on - it was simply that her previous unsuccessful raid had made her register with the other party. Just like there are many orphan Valkyries in their Far North branch, there are also many orphans on Anti-Entropy's side. The only difference is that most of the people on Anti-Entropy's side may have come out of this orphanage, while the Valkyries in their Far North branch may have some other coincidences. "Bronya may have introduced me on the plane, but please allow me to introduce me to you again." As Xing walked, she politely touched Liu Bai's chest. "The Kokolia Orphanage was founded by our mother, Kokolia, and sponsored by Vice Alliance Leader Edison. It is the largest orphanage in the entire Siberia region and has the most comprehensive facilities." "Compared to Hearth House?" Liu Bai looked at the orphanage in front of him, which might cover half the area of the Far North Base, and was somewhat surprised. In his impression, the orphanage in Cocolia should be a small attic courtyard with ordinary prevention measures. It even had the strange atmosphere of Xier being kidnapped by mercenaries. But here now... there are eight hidden sentry gun turrets that have not yet been activated at the landing point. It is definitely a military base. "There's no comparison." Rosalie criticized her own orphanage. "The investment alone is not on the same level. In terms of total strength, the Far North branch can surpass this one, but the investment in the orphanage is too different." Anti-Entropy opened an orphanage here and set up a base at the same time. They set up a base and set up an orphanage at the same time.
Xing nodded slightly with some pride, indicating that everything Rosalin said was fine. As for the fact that the orphanages on both sides are used as talent pools or something, it is actually very normal. After all, these orphans can basically not survive in such places without anyone to take care of them. Occasionally, there are some who can survive, but most of them are young soldiers or suicide squads. At least these two orphanages provide a path for children to grow up properly and become human beings. Others who want to enter Destiny and Anti-Entropy don't have that way - of course, what happened to Kugavina was that she acted on her own initiative and did things secretly. Bronya then jogged behind and followed Xing to the visiting room in the orphanage. On the way, they passed by a playground where a group of children were having fun. "The eagle catching the chick?" Peruvian glanced sideways. A ghost-like child covered in white cloth was waving his arms and feet at a row of children. “Why are you wearing a white cloth?” "Hmm... I don't know. We've been doing this for a long time." Xing explained, "Maybe it's because 'eagles' are rare here in the snowfield? Instead, there are some legends of snow fairies and elves, which led to the 'white cloth monster'?" "It was you, Xing, who first suggested playing this way, right?" Xier complained from the side. "...Okay, maybe I just thought it was interesting. I fantasized a lot when I was a kid, so I thought of this?" Xing looked a little embarrassed after being criticized by Xier. "Anyway, the core is still the eagle catching the chicken." "……very nice." Peruvian sighed with a hint of envy, then looked away. At Hearth House, Rosalin was already very strict by not letting them play PUBG. "Pelew, do you want to play?" Liu Bai slowed down two steps and made himself and Perewili side by side. "It won't take too long to play now. Do you want to be an eagle or a hen?" "..." Peruvian stared at Liu Bai with cold eyes. Well, although I can feel Liu Bai's concern, but... "Do you think I'm a child?" How could she possibly get involved with this group of kids and play Eagle Catches Chicken? Why does this heroic "father" of mine always like to bring up such ridiculous things? As expected, it looks like it has an extra mouth, right? "I think childlike innocence is still very important. For example, when I was a child, I liked magical girls, and I still like them now." Liu Bai touched his chin. "From 'Cardcaptor Sakura' to 'Puella Magi Madoka Magica' and finally to 'Magical Girl Sky Fania' - the innocence of a child can stay with you for a lifetime." "Then I will give you a magic wand when I have the chance - I hope you can transform yourself then."
Merciless complaints. Liu Bai curled his lips: "What I mean is that if you show your childishness a little, no one will say you are childish. Don't be so prickly all the time." "..." Peruvian's eyes trembled for a moment, and then he returned to his cold expression. Liu Bai, who had been frustrated, shrugged his shoulders and could only choose to skip the topic and follow Xing's footsteps all the way to the orphanage's reception room. Compared to the Far North Base, the reception room here is much smaller, but the atmosphere is not depressing. The homely decorations and the blazing fireplace in the room make it feel very warm. Cocolia in military uniform and Dr. Lobster in casual clothes were already sitting around the fireplace. "Everyone, please take a seat."
