slap~
Bronya slapped Cocolia's hand away.
"Bronya doesn't want to forgive what Cocolia's mother did."
"They actually forcibly controlled Bronya. If Miss Hoshizuki hadn't been there, Bronya would have attacked Kiana and Mei instead, right?"
Upon hearing this, Cocolia's hand, which she had withdrawn, froze in mid-air. She felt a mix of emotions and was unsure whether what she had done was right or wrong.
"By the way, Seele, how did you get back?"
Setting aside her guilt towards Bronya for the moment, Cocolia looked at the delicate girl next to Bronya with some surprise.
She knew very well that retrieving Seele from the Sea of Quanta and materializing her would require immense power, something Bronya could not accomplish.
"It was Miss Xingyue who helped us."
"What?"
Upon hearing Bronya's answer, Cocolia was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.
Bronya continued...
“And we’ve come back this time because we want an explanation from you, Cocolia’s mother.”
"Really? Bronya? You've certainly grown quite bold."
Cocolia said with a hint of disappointment.
Although she had her faults, she felt she was only doing it for the children's good. She believed that if she could obtain the Gem of Desire and study it, more children would survive in this apocalyptic world.
"I advise you to stay home with Seele. As an apology, I won't send you on missions again. Schicksal's technology can't remove that biochip."
"Mom Cocolia..."
Observing this delicate mother-daughter relationship, Seele didn't know how to talk to Cocolia's mother, even though she felt it was Cocolia's mother's fault.
"Really? Cocolia, you're as stupid as ever!"
It was coming from the roof, a voice that was unfamiliar to everyone except Bronya and Seele.
"Who?"
The five of them looked up at the roof together.
The wind blew through the air above, and the girl sat there leisurely, arms crossed, as if no one was around.
"You? How did you get in?"
Cocolia broke out in a cold sweat and involuntarily took a step back.
There are clearly many mech guards around the orphanage. You need permission to enter, and even if you break in, the alarm should go off! How could it have been done so quietly...?
"How do I get in? That's an interesting question."
Enjoying Cocolia's unpleasant expression, Hoshizuki fiddled with the leaves in her hand, looking down at the group on the ground.
"When did you get the idea that those few pieces of junk could spot me?"
"If I travel at the speed of light, do you think those toys will have time to notice me?"
"Light? Speed of light?"
Upon hearing this word, Cocolia silently swallowed, a chill running down her spine.
If it truly is the speed of light, then the mechs wouldn't have time to react at all. But have planetary-level Honkai Beasts really become this powerful? They can even easily reach the speed of light.
"call!"
"What brings you here so suddenly?"
Cocolia tried to remain calm while calling to her other two daughters.
"What do I want to do..."
The girl's slender fingers stood before her lips, her eyes, sparkling like stars, swirled around in their sockets, and then suddenly her eyebrows curved inward, her eyelashes narrowing into crescent shapes.
"Ms. Cocolia! If I said I wanted some of your daughters, would you give them to me?"
Chapter 53: Cocolia, you have no choice but to agree to this.
"What did you say?"
Cocolia clenched her fists, gazing intently at the sea-haired girl high above.
She wasn't sure if the other person was joking or serious. If it was a joke, fine, but if it was serious...
“That’s right, I’m only here to let you know that Bronya and Seele are now my property.”
"What?"
Cocolia turned to look at her two daughters.
From their eyes, it was clear that Xingyue wasn't lying, but there must be some hidden story behind it.
"Is that so? Hehehe!"
Cocolia covered half her face, chuckled self-deprecatingly a few times, then her expression suddenly turned serious.
She was wondering how Bronya could have rescued Seele; it turned out that this planetary Honkai Beast was behind it all, which explained everything.
"I have another matter to ask of you, which is to help me remove the biochip from Bronya's head."
Xingyue kicked her legs a few times and said leisurely.
What if I refuse?
Upon hearing this, the girl stopped kicking and, in the next second, she flashed in front of Cocolia and tapped the beautiful woman's forehead with her index finger.
"That's not up to you anymore. You have to do it today, whether you like it or not!"
Xingyue faced the woman with a strange smile.
Although the enemy was close at hand, Cocolia had no will to resist.
Even though she had a lot of weapons, reason told her that they would be useless against the enemy in front of her and might even provoke her.
Bronya and Seele remained unmoved as they watched the two stand off, while Rosalia and Lilia hesitated, unsure of which side to take.
After all, what this young lady was talking about was asking her mother to help remove the chip from Bronya's brain, something that would be beneficial to Bronya.
bang~
At that moment, the orphanage's walls collapsed instantly, and hordes of mechs appeared from all sides.
"What are you all doing? That person is threatening Mom! Why are you still standing there?"
A girl dressed in androgynous clothing stood on the shoulder of the mecha.
The girl has heterochromatic eyes, one blue and one gold, and the temperament she exudes is not feminine at all; instead, she has the air of a snobbish old man.
She had just returned to the orphanage when she discovered that her mother was being threatened. Without saying a word, she hurriedly summoned all her mechs. However, she found that Rosalia and the others had done nothing during this time, which infuriated her.
"But……"
"Didn't you understand what I said? I'm asking you all to work together to deal with this intruder."
Xing ignored their explanations and spoke in a commanding tone.
Rosalia and Lilia exchanged a glance. Not wanting to disobey Xing, they could only tentatively step forward.
Seeing this, Xing crossed her arms, stepped forward with her right leg, and thought she looked very cool.
In an instant, a dense swarm of mechs closed in on the two of them.
Xingyue glanced around out of the corner of her eye, then grabbed the beautiful woman's throat tightly with her other hand.
"Xingmar, you're still too green! The hostage is in my hands right now, and you still dare to attack me."
"At this point, shouldn't you have arranged for a few snipers to wait for the right opportunity? Instead, you deliberately exposed all your trump cards."
The girl with the frizzy hair raised her middle finger at Xing with her other hand.
"You want me to teach you how to do things?"
Xing was starting to panic. What the other person said was true; it was her fault for not considering everything. But she would never admit it in front of so many people.
"Believe it or not, I'll snap this old hag's neck right now."
"you……"
Xing's little hands were sore from gripping so tightly.
Although she was very concerned about her reputation, this matter concerned her mother's life, so she had to put it aside for the time being.
She waved to the mech and Rosalia, and everyone stepped back a short distance.
"What exactly do you want? What will it take for you to let Mom go?"
Xing gritted her teeth and questioned him.
"It's very simple."
Xingyue curved her fingers slightly upwards, and with a little force, pressed Cocolia against the wall.
At that moment, Cocolia felt everything go black.
Clearly, the physical condition of ordinary people, or even special forces soldiers, is insignificant in the face of Honkai creatures.
If the girl had exerted just a little more force, she had no doubt that she would have died on the spot.
She struggled desperately, using every method at her disposal, but no matter what weapon she pulled out, she couldn't even break through the girl's outermost defense.
Xingyue maintained a firm grip, ensuring Cocolia kept her breathing at a minimum.
In other words, from the moment she was strangled until now, the beautiful woman has only been barely clinging to life; the feeling is worse than death.
The more distressed Cocolia looked, the happier Hoshizuki became.
She did it entirely on purpose.
The girl looked at the woman who seemed determined to die rather than submit, and suddenly let out a mocking laugh.
"I'll return it to you after I'm done using it."
After pressing Cocolia tightly against the wall, the girl reached out with her other hand and released her grip.
In full view of everyone, he suddenly grabbed at the woman's face.
A purple circular magic circle, several tens of centimeters in diameter, appeared from the point of contact between the two.
"That? What is that?"
The moment Bronya saw the magic circle, her eyes widened in shock.
She glanced at the delicate girl beside her, swallowed hard, and then her gaze hardened, as if she had made a decision.
"Seele, don't look at this."
Bronya immediately hugged the delicate girl from behind with one arm and covered Seele's eyes with the other.
"Bronya, sister?"
Seele was taken aback by this sudden action and was somewhat at a loss.
However, Seele quickly let out a calm breath, a relieved smile appearing on her lips, and leaned closer to the girl behind her.
"It's okay, Seele trusts Bronya. If Bronya doesn't want Seele to watch, then Seele won't watch."
As for the others, they were also stunned and helpless by this bizarre scene.
The girl with frizzy hair parted her cherry lips and slowly uttered two words.
"Optimization".
Chapter 54: Grandpa Xing was so scared he peed his pants
Cocolia's beautiful face contorted rapidly before the naked eye.
The woman's expression went awry, and she struggled frantically.
As time passed, the woman's struggles gradually subsided, her eyes became vacant, and it was unclear what had ravaged her.
"Get down on the ground."
