Chương 105: Chapter 105: Otto's Invitation

Setting aside the controller in hand and dispelling the false weariness, Otto urged his soulium body to recall the games he had experienced before.

"Breath of the Wild" was truly a masterpiece, guiding Link through the vast expanse of land, providing a sense of savoring the world and its natural beauty.

Traversing the land on foot, braving countless perils to rescue the princess.

The visuals might not have been optimal due to the handheld console's performance, but whether it was the gameplay experience, subtle guidance, or the background music, they were all top-notch.

Recalling the seemingly all-knowing little sister.

Honestly speaking, Otto still found it incredibly miraculous. The traveler from the Sea of Quanta, who had done the most in this world was creating games.

How should he put it? It's quite remarkable, isn't it?

After all, those willing to journey through the Sea of Quanta usually didn't linger in one world for too long, yet Bronya did!

And she brought with her countless fascinating games.

Otto often brought games to Bianka, hoping the child could relax a bit. Who would have thought a child could be so disciplined?

Perhaps it was Ragnar's influence.

But games were games, and Otto couldn't afford to miss a very important moment himself.

In the not-too-distant future, in February 2012, a brief temporal window would appear near the Northeast Greenland National Park fjord.

And through that window, it would become an opportunity for Schicksal to explore the Sea of Quanta!

This opportunity, akin to the transit of Venus, Otto wouldn't let slip by. However, when it came to selecting the exploration team, there were some considerations.

Otto had witnessed the changes in the Void Archives, so could Haxxor Bunny be trusted?

Honestly, Otto didn't think so. Although she was indeed a very suitable choice as a guide, Otto himself couldn't discern what Bronie truly needed.

Mysterious, wielding advanced technology, usually quiet, yet once she took action, she inexplicably became involved in Otto's own K423 plan!

Was this reasonable?

Where did this information come from?

Honestly, Otto found it all very perplexing, but he also didn't dare to provoke Bronie too much.

After all, Bronie seemed able to enter the Sea of Quanta at will, while Schicksal himself still needed to craft a Gnius and await a temporal window before entering the Sea of Quanta.

Schicksal's research on time, space, the Sea of Quanta, and imaginary space actually originated from the advent of the Second Herrscher.

To have achieved this level within ten years, Otto felt he was already very impressive.

So, in terms of selecting explorers for the Sea of Quanta, Otto attached great importance to it, especially considering the limited output of Gnius, not many people could be brought in.

Bianka was guaranteed, and the other one, was it to be a completely unfamiliar Haxxor Bunny, or a trusted deputy, Rita?

While the game was enjoyable, it didn't necessarily reflect the nature of its creator.

Therefore, Otto settled on Rita, but as for Haxxor Bunny, that guy definitely couldn't just be left unused like this!

After all, the other party should understand better than himself what the situation in the Sea of Quanta was, right?

Although he didn't know Haxxor Bunny's demands, stopping at a certain point of contact might be beneficial to both parties.

So Otto sought out Bronie.

Through the contact information left by Bronie.

Watching Bronya's intense release of new games, Otto sometimes even suspected whether Bronie did nothing but develop games in her spare time.

And Bronis's flow of funds was also somewhat strange. Recently, she even commissioned some people to buy mining companies.

Mining?

Raw materials for making game consoles?

Certainly not.

So, to be honest, Otto was confused after seeing it all, but one thing he couldn't be sure of was what Bronie wanted to achieve in this world.

"Hello, Miss Bronie, congratulations on the successful release of your new game console. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a very interesting game. Such games can bring smiles to countless children, and even the psychological state of Schicksal's Valkyries has improved somewhat.

You know, although the Valkyries within Schicksal shout for fighting for all the good in the world, their essence is always focused on revenge. Their psychological state always makes me feel very worried, but your game has successfully made them realize that there should not only be revenge in their lives. I am very grateful to you."

"Having said so much, so you want to give me money?"

Bronie remained unmoved. Otto, this guy, must have something in mind to approach her. Calculating the time carefully, it was indeed almost time.

Could it be that this guy wanted to make her a guide to the Sea of Quanta?

Although the sword Durandal indeed feels quite powerful, Bronya herself is clear that she definitely doesn't have the temperament to wield a weapon like that.

"Hahaha, if your requirement is truly just money, then that would be perfect, but I believe Miss Haxxor Bunny's pursuits are not so shallow, right?"

"Well then, let me guess, what do you want from me? Apart from causing trouble for Anti Entropy, paralyzing their Titan internal systems, I'm afraid the only other thing would be the matter of the Sea of Quanta, right? Hm, have you found a way to enter the Sea of Quanta? Are you prepared to explore it?"

"It seems Miss Haxxor Bunny has already guessed this, so I won't beat around the bush. Yes, Schicksal is planning to explore the Sea of Quanta in order to find a way to counter the Honkai, and also to further verify the truth of the world brought to me by Miss Haxxor Bunny."

The Imaginary Tree hypothesis is still very useful. If they can enter the Sea of Quanta, then we can further verify the correctness of Miss Haxxor Bunny's theory.

It feels like playing Civilization, stepping on a village, and then the village shares a nuclear bomb technology with the player in the classical era.

Otto's plan is directly lifted!

"What do you need me to do?"

"For us, Schicksal, everything in the Sea of Quanta is unknown, so I hope Miss Haxxor Bunny can come to Schicksal Headquarters to guide the Valkyries who are about to explore the Sea of Quanta for a period of time, to ensure that they have more means to deal with the crises they may encounter in the Sea of Quanta."

Wow, Otto directly invited me to Schicksal Headquarters! This is a dangerous place. Who knows what will happen there?

Although Bronya found that Otto seemed unaware that she had copied all the data inside the Void Archives, going to Schicksal Headquarters would still make her a bit wary.

Should I go?

"Hehe, of course, you don't need to worry too much. If you can come to Schicksal Headquarters, then I will give you the highest treatment as Archbishop. Although the Sea of Quanta may be full of dangers, I just want to seek your guidance."

Otto's tone was sincere, with a sunny smile and a sincere and cheerful expression at the other end of the communication, all making Bronie somewhat hesitant.

Fake, it's all fake!

What sunny and cheerful smile? Otto has some ulterior motives, definitely thinking of using me for something.

But well...

Actually, going to Schicksal Headquarters might still have other gains, right?

Like plundering some of Schicksal's mech data, then dismantling Schicksal's defense systems, and leaving a backdoor in Schicksal's intranet.

So that in the future, if Theresa suddenly wants to deal with Otto, Bronya can still lend a hand.

I heard there are huge protective barriers around Schicksal's Sky Island?

Is that not easy to solve?

Weighing the pros and cons, Bronie looked at Bronya, who was tilting her head nearby.

I'm a little worried about Kiana, but I also want to help Bianka's side.

After all, who knows if there will be any butterfly effects?

"Archbishop Otto, my fee is very high! This time, what I want is definitely not just simple money."

When Otto heard Bronie's answer, he was suddenly delighted.

It's a good thing to have demands.

Otto was afraid he wouldn't be able to figure out what Bronie needed. Last time it was knowledge, and Otto felt that Bronie must have gained more knowledge than what she had given.

The scope was too broad to accurately determine Bronie's intentions.

As for the knowledge Bronie wanted?

It must have a certain misleading effect, there's no doubt about it.

So, what Bronie needs next can be further narrowed down, thoroughly locking onto Bronie's intentions.

"Alright, alright, that's how a deal works. We have plenty of time to negotiate. As long as it's not something too outrageous, Schicksal has plenty to offer. With five hundred years of heritage, I can proudly tell you that the things I lack the least are time and money."

After ending the call with Mr. Otto, Bronie also got up from her seat and lazily stretched.

"Sister Bronya is going on a long trip again?"

"Not really, after all, Schicksal Headquarters is quite close to the Ural Mountains."

"Bronya is going too!"

"No!"

Seeing Bronya also getting up, Bronie immediately refused Bronya's suggestion.

Bronya looked a little aggrieved.

"Does Sister Bronie doubt Bronya's combat abilities?"

"Not at all, but where I'm going next is the headquarters of the most powerful organization, Schicksal, which is currently fighting the Honkai. Schicksal Headquarters is located on a floating island above the Mediterranean, and the most important point is that Otto has Hua and Fenghuang Down by his side. I can ensure my own safety, but I can't guarantee yours."

Otto can do anything for his plan.

Using Fenghuang Down on children?

As long as it can really achieve his goal, there is absolutely no problem!

Otto's desire for control over things around him is naturally very high, he is so eager to contact me because he wants to reduce the unknown and uncertain factors around him.

After all, Bronie is by K423's side, and Otto doesn't know what Bronie wants to do nearby.

Even with such efficient production of games, it seems that Otto's concerns cannot be dispelled.

It's better to say that Otto is already coming to me now, it's already very late.

Sometimes Bronie also wonders if Otto, apart from experiments and necessary social interactions, is just playing games at home?

...

The highest treatment of Schicksal is indeed the highest treatment.

Originally, if they were going to Schicksal Headquarters, they would at most take a transport plane and go straight up.

Who knows why Ragnar brought a floating battleship to pick her up.

Walking onto the bridge, the view is wide open, and then the battleship enters stealth mode, continuously ascending until it passes through the clouds.

Throughout the journey, Bronie hardly communicated with many Valkyries.

But Miss Ragnar's gaze seems to be drifting over, which really makes Bronie a little uncomfortable.

"Is there something wrong, Miss Captain?"

"No, no, nothing, I just feel like I've seen you somewhere before. Have we met, Miss Bronie?"

"Hm, I rarely appear in the public eye, but if you feel familiar, you probably saw me in some news, right?"

Did Ragnar's memory get modified by Otto?

Bronie was also helpless, but judging from her spirited words, there shouldn't be much of a problem.

Miss Ragnar is also a very good person, full of enthusiasm to fight for the beauty of the world, but reality is often cruel. When facing the Herrscher, even A-rank Valkyries find it difficult to survive on the battlefield.

"No wonder Archbishop Otto made such a big fuss. Could it be that you are a sudden genius? Very talented in scientific research?"

"Come on, do I have that ability? I'm just a game developer. Perhaps it's because Archbishop Otto cares so much about the psychological condition of you Valkyries, so he wants to discuss gaming matters with me?"

"Games! So that's it! Switch is made by you? And also The Legend of Zelda, Kirby's Adventure, are all made by you!

"?"

Ragnar suddenly approached, making Bronie quite uneasy and quickly retreated.

Pay attention to social distancing!

"Sorry sorry, because I was too excited when I heard this news, everyone at Schicksal really likes your games! When everyone doesn't know what to do during their rest time, they just hold a grudge and think about how to take revenge on the Honkai every day. I also feel helpless sometimes. If it weren't for your games, everyone might one day be blinded by hatred on the battlefield and die there."

Although Ragnar is trying hard to rush forward, it's just to rush ahead of her teammates and minimize the dangers her teammates may encounter.

But it's not good to keep doing this all the time!

Fortunately, things have also taken a turn for the better.

And all this is also because Archbishop Otto brought them games.

How to say it, apart from revenge, what the Valkyries admire most is Archbishop Otto, so the games recommended by Archbishop Otto, naturally everyone has tried them all.

From Undertale to Spiritfarer, to bringing pure joy to people like Kirby and The Legend of Zelda.

Ragnar really wants to see the game developer who pulled everyone out of the shadows.

But I didn't expect to meet the game developer and such a cute young child!

"Uh...my game is useful, as long as my game can bring happiness to everyone, let everyone feel the beauty of the world, then my goal is achieved, as long as you're happy."

"Then can you give me an autograph?"

Good gracious, you're the captain of the Valkyrie assault team, and you even carry a cassette box with you!

Then casually asked for a pen from her subordinates, and looked at Bronie to sign.

But Bronie didn't want to refuse either, after signing her name, she even drew two simple sketches.

"Thank you very much! I hope in the future you can make more interesting games! But now, we have arrived at Schicksal Headquarters, welcome to Schicksal."

As she spoke, the scenery outside the bridge suddenly changed, and Schicksal's Sky Island appeared as if the game had just loaded, apparently using some kind of special technology to shield the outside world.

The Sky Island is very large, Bronie feels a little out of place.

After all, to maintain such a Sky Island, it must require a lot of energy, but Otto would rather consume so much energy to make Schicksal Headquarters fly. What exactly is the reason?

Bronie feels that she has a lot of questions to ask next.
