“Human, you’re not very good either.
You still needed this Queen to cooperate with you.”
A’Quan laughed proudly.
Behind her was Seele, her face full of worry.
“Is this big sister really all right?”
“Don’t worry.
I know how much force I used.
She definitely won’t die.”
A’Quan told Seele to relax, but the girl still looked worriedly at the large bump swelling on the back of Rita’s head.
Yunyan picked up the Gene Reaper on the ground and handed it to Seele.
“Seele, take this.
It’s not much use to me.
Since we’re already here, maximizing profits is best.”
Seeing the wicked smile on his face, A’Quan knew Rita was about to suffer.
“What are you planning to do?”
“The technology on my side is developed in some ways and undeveloped in others.
Most of it relies on archaeology.
I’m going to get some things to bring back.”
Yunyan played with the simulated Judgment of Shamash in his hand, somewhat reluctant to part with it.
This side had Honkai energy available, so Void Archives could carefully absorb Honkai energy from the air and use it.
Terra did not have that.
What a pity.
Even if he wanted weapons, he could not choose things powered by Honkai energy.
Titans…
Those were much more useful than Steam Knights.
First, he would get some.
Then he would see if he could find someone to modify them into Originium-powered versions.
“A’Quan, does your side have Titans?”
“Of course.
Anti-Entropy makes them too.
They’re used for infrastructure and certain special operations.”
That made sense.
Honkai beasts on that side were not threatening, and there were no real enemies, so weapons were not particularly needed.
According to A’Quan, even special-operation models rarely carried weapons.
When he had gone to Schicksal Headquarters earlier, he had seen very few Schicksal God Machines.
Otherwise, he could have traded with Otto for some.
He could only look around on this side.
Titans were probably impossible.
The Herrscher of the Void had bankrupted Anti-Entropy with one strike, and repairs on the Father Titan were still stuck at 90%.
Yunyan also had no money to trade with Anti-Entropy.
In that case, Rita could only suffer a little.
Yunyan crouched and found Rita’s communication device on her.
Using Rita’s fingerprint to unlock it, he opened her contacts.
Overseer Otto.
Beep…
Beep…
After a few dial tones, the call connected.
A frivolous voice came through.
“Rita, what do you need to report?”
“Overseer Otto.”
The man’s voice made the other side pause.
Then he gave a relaxed laugh.
“In that case, unfamiliar friend, may I assume that Rita has already met with misfortune?”
“No.
She has merely fallen into an infant-like sleep.”
He only asked, “What do you need?
Since you are willing to contact me proactively, that means there is room for negotiation.”
“Give me one of each model of Schicksal God Machine.
Ten God Machine Heimdalls and ten God Machine Balders as well.
If you have Anti-Entropy Titans, give me one of each model too.
Also, a cargo aircraft.
Put all those things on it.
After confirming safety, I guarantee Miss Rita will be safe and sound.”
“Trading one of Schicksal’s S-rank Valkyries for these things means I am the one profiting.”
S-rank Valkyries could not be piled up purely with resources.
Talent and hard work were both indispensable.
Not to mention specialized battlesuits and weapons.
Rita’s current Umbral Rose: Iron Phantom was assassination-specialized and extremely valuable.
Otto had never cared about such small sums.
The aircraft, God Machines, and Titans were certainly valuable, but far from as important as Rita.
Not to mention Rita was his black glove and had helped him handle many problems.
These things were worth doing.
Compared with that, Otto was more curious about how Rita had flipped over.
“I will have people prepare them immediately.
Where shall we make the exchange?”
“Why not contact Principal Theresa?
Have someone deliver them to her.
Compared with you, I trust her more.”
Although St.
Freya had already fallen out with Schicksal, in Otto’s eyes, this was merely his granddaughter’s little willfulness.
Yunyan did not believe Otto had no way to contact his granddaughter.
Compared with trading directly with this man, he would naturally feel more at ease if the items were handed to Theresa.
“Friend, where is the trust between people?”
“Friend?
Trust?
Overseer Otto, this is a basic transaction.
Do not bring personal feelings into it.”
Otto: “…”
Why did those words sound so strange?
“All right.
Since that is the case, let us handle this as business.”
The call ended.
Otto leaned back in his chair, opened Schicksal’s battlesuit system, and checked Rita’s condition.
Based on the data, Rita was indeed unconscious.
After thinking for a moment, he quickly compiled a file and shouted, “Amber, contact Theresa.
She blocked my contact information.
Have people prepare according to this list and deliver the items to Theresa.”
“As you command, Lord Overseer.”
Amber opened a communication link.
Not long afterward, it connected.
A small white-haired girl asked suspiciously, “Amber?
You… Grandpa?!”
“Theresa, why are you looking at Grandpa like you’re looking at an enemy?”
“Don’t you know?”
Theresa gritted her teeth.
Her eldest niece’s disappearance and Himeko’s death were all because of her grandfather.
“The Far East Branch has already cut ties with Schicksal. You are reading on g.com, the official source.
If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.
Grandpa, don’t contact me again.”
“Hehe.
If you want to talk business, then let’s talk business.
Rita has been captured.”
“What?
Rita?
She’s an S-rank Valkyrie, isn’t she?”
Theresa was puzzled.
With Rita’s strength and cautious personality, how many people in this world could capture her?
Otto spread his hands.
“There are many experts in this world.
Schicksal is not the only organization with people possessing S-rank Valkyrie-level strength.
Additionally, given Rita’s personality, she would not lose her communication device.
Not to mention every Valkyrie communication device is standard-issue and cannot be opened without biological genetic information.
But the other party does not trust me.
I will send the items to Arc City.
You go meet the other party.”
“You’re not planning to ambush them after they receive the items, are you?”
Based on her understanding of her grandfather, he would definitely retaliate against the trading partner after the transaction was complete.
It was not as if he had never done such things before.
“Theresa, this is a transaction.
There is no need to cause extra trouble.
Rita is very important.
She is worth this payment.
In short, I will trouble you with this.”
Before Theresa could refuse, the call ended.
Otto raised his head and said to Amber, “Amber, notify Durandal.
Have her leave the battlefield to the other Valkyries for now and head to Arc City.
Also send Bright Knight: Excelsis to Durandal and have her reach the site at the highest speed.
After the transaction is complete, capture that man.”
“As you command, Lord Overseer.”
Amber withdrew.
Otto poured himself a glass of red wine and gently swirled it.
“To seek skin from a tiger, one must at least have the strength to trade with the tiger.”
Rita had flipped over.
Surely Durandal would not flip over too, right?
As his most outstanding student, absolutely nothing would go wrong.
