The book "Chronicles of Honkai" was undoubtedly revised by Otto Apocalypse as Luo Lin discovered while flipping through it.
The portrayal of the heroic figure Kallen Kaslana was extensive, rendering her personal image vivid, and the descriptive text highly compelling.
This unusual compelling nature was something Luo Lin had experienced during Otto's impromptu speech at the Schicksal Sky Island headquarters. It stirred emotions like rolling waves, effortlessly ensnaring the audience.
A brief comparison revealed Otto's touch, and this depiction engendered great admiration for Kallen among the Valkyries. Kallen had become almost a totem in the hearts of all the Valkyries of Schicksal.
Raiden Mei was no exception; she had developed an affinity for this fearless, powerful warrior who, despite being deceived by the old Schicksal, had still stood up and sacrificed herself. She struck the first blow against old Schicksal's tyranny - Kallen Kaslana.
How should she put it? The plot seems fine, but Kallen shouldn't be portrayed as so... "divine."
Luo Lin looked at the girl with blue-purple long hair in front of her, who had spent the night becoming a "Kallen enthusiast."
She didn't know whether to attribute it to Kallen's charismatic personality or to Otto's skillful writing, or perhaps a combination of both.
Otto would likely be very pleased when he found out about this. He might say something like, "Even the Herrscher can feel her goodness; Kallen is truly amazing."
Then, he would continue scheming as usual, perhaps being a little more humane when dealing with Raiden Mei, making her suffer less when he goes after her.
After expressing her emotions, Raiden Mei turned to the white-haired ball beside her. "Kiana, I remember your last name is Kaslana. Is Kallen your ancestor?"
Kiana paused for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Oh, right, I didn't think of that!"
Luo Lin stared at the white-haired girl with a grim expression. "I'm starting to doubt if you've been paying attention during my classes."
"I-I-I-I really was paying attention!"
The Valkyrie adopted a noncommittal expression. "You'd better have been paying attention. I'll be testing you later... If you don't do well, when I find your dad, I'll definitely complain to him."
Kiana let out a sigh of despair. "Why is it like this!"
"Then let's continue the class. If you're in a good mood today, maybe we can do some 'warm-up exercises' that you all love..."
Raiden Mei looked at the white-haired girl, now lying on the table. Her overly active brain began contemplating how a member of the famous Kaslana family, a renowned hero of Schicksal, ended up in the Far East, and even her own dad needed to "find" her.
There must be some story behind it.
After getting to know them better, she definitely had to ask what was going on!
The girl with blue-purple long hair blinked curiously.
...
...

So, how is Mr. Siegfried, who is being worried about by Kiana and Luo Lin, doing now?
Outside the outskirts of Nagazora, a figure moved through the alleys, finally stopping on the rooftop of a warehouse. He was none other than Siegfried Kaslana.
Despite his tall stature, his movements were silent. This was not only because Siegfried had learned the skill of stealth, but also because of a device hanging from his waist, emitting subtle waves.
"Tesla, is this invisibility device reliable?" the white-haired man asked.
"The technology used in this thing has been used on the AE Titans for a long time. You can rest assured. Shrinking it into a device that humans can carry is not difficult. The only problem is that it requires a lot of Honkai energy to use, which ordinary people can't handle." Tesla's voice came through the earpiece.
"Siegfried, as an S-class force, although your control over Honkai energy is a bit rough, in terms of quantity, you alone can support its operation for a long time."
"Alright, I'll trust you this time."
The white-haired man muttered, then pressed the button on the invisibility device. With the loss of Honkai energy, Siegfried's figure gradually became transparent, leaving only a nearly invisible outline formed by refraction.
"What's next?"
"Previously, our Honkai energy detector in Nagazora detected abnormal Honkai energy fluctuations. It lasted for a long time, and we thought it was some experiment by Raiden Ryoma. Until you came out and told us that there were Herrschers in Nagazora, even two..."
"A bit hard to believe isn't it?"
"Indeed, but we believe you, Siegfried... because we briefly captured an exaggerated Honkai energy data, which almost covered the entire Nagazora, and then disappeared in the next second - almost the same time as when the Herrschers appeared as you described."
Tesla gritted her teeth. "Do you know what this reminds me of?"
"...Babylon Laboratory."
"That's right, I think Ryoma and Otto are playing a similar game... Now I need more solid evidence, and Siegfried, you have dealt with the Herrschers before, with strong combat power, maybe you can find something here... at least you're more likely to come back alive than those ordinary agents."
Siegfried shrugged. "That's true, after all, I'm Siegfried."
"Be careful... Wait, why is that guy here..."
"Where?"
"To the left, another alleyway?"
A plain-dressed man emerged from the shadows, cautiously scanning his surroundings. Without hesitating for long, he continued deeper into the area.
"That's Hida Ren, one of Raiden Ryoma's subordinates..."
"Oh? It seems Dr. Tesla's speculation was spot on... He's definitely related to this place."
Siegfried began to track him cautiously.
A few minutes later, Hida Ren entered a building, and Siegfried carefully stood at the door, surveying the surroundings.
"It seems like something big is going on in there."
With Tesla's help, the white-haired man confirmed that there were no surveillance cameras, infrared detectors, or other high-tech scanning devices around, so he continued to follow the trail.
Soon, Siegfried caught up with Hida Ren, watching him stand at the entrance of a room emitting a blinding purple light.
"...A Honkai energy warehouse... What does he want to do?"
Hida Ren dropped a beacon in a concealed corner and then opened his communicator.
"Lord Jackal, I have located the Honkai energy warehouse built by Cocolia. This is another token of my sincerity, to ensure that you do not suffer losses in the process of trading with Cocolia."
Siegfried could see the turmoil in Hida Ren's emotions, rather... desire.
"I don't think this guy is one of Raiden Ryoma's men," the white-haired man whispered.
"Is that so?"
Hida Ren chatted with Jackal for a while before hanging up the phone, then heaved a long sigh of relief.
Jackal praised him and made some promises.
Hida Ren walked to the window, looking up at the sky over Nagazora, where planes flew by, leaving long trails.
It seemed he was one step closer to obtaining the "ticket" to immortality.
And on that plane sat another key figure.
"Yes, Miss Amber, I'm about to land... Is Miss Fu Hua there too? Is there any movement from AE as well? Okay, I got it."
