After a while, the projection started again.
In order to try a more distant point in time, Walter chose five hundred years ago in the current civilization era, the time when the Mandate of Heaven's eastward expedition arrived at the Kipchak Steppe.
The image reappeared on the screen.
Grasslands, smoke signals, and a massive army.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Mebius shook his head secretly.
"It seems that the area that can be affected from there is still relatively limited."
Einstein concluded.
"It's alright, it's alright."
Tesla patted his chest.
Just as they were about to say something, the laboratory door suddenly made a piercing metallic sound.
Although it only lasted for a moment and then went silent, it still attracted everyone's attention.
next moment.
The door silently turned into dust, scattering into the air.
Behind the door that had been blocked, a person stood quietly.
It's cherry blossom.
She slowly walked in, causing Tesla and the others to immediately stand up and frantically retreat.
"Don't worry, I'm just here to take the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle."
Tesla swallowed hard before mustering the courage to ask, "What do you want to do with the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle?"
"Ensure the success rate of the plan."
Sakura gave a brief reply, and then drew out the Seven Thunders of Purification.
Walter quickly shielded everyone behind him, keeping a close eye on Sakura.
however.
A bolt of lightning suddenly flashed.
Walter didn't even react before collapsing and losing consciousness.
Not only him, but everyone except Mebius met the same fate.
"You arrived cleanly and efficiently, but you were a little late."
Sakura glanced at Mebius expressionlessly and said in a cold tone, "I don't have the ability to use the back door like Velvi."
"She personally gave you the dormant state of all things before sending you back... Have you checked what she gave you?"
Mebius said with a mocking expression.
"Even if something was tampered with, I wouldn't be able to detect it."
"But I don't see any intention of you checking?"
“There’s no need for that. Miss Wilvi won’t let him down.”
“You guys certainly have an extraordinary level of trust—let’s go, Anna, that little guinea pig, is still in the dark. It will probably take her a while to accept the situation if we explain it to her now.”
Sakura frowned upon hearing this: "...You haven't even told her yet?"
"That little white mouse is too naive. I'm afraid she'll accidentally give herself away. If that happens, our plan will be in an awkward situation."
Do you think you can convince her now?
Möbius smiled sarcastically: "Even if you were in her position, you wouldn't be as easy to persuade as she is. You underestimate that kid's abilities."
Sakura paused, then fell silent and stopped questioning.
The other four people are lying unconscious on the ground for the time being. They are neither injured nor in danger, and they will wake up after a while.
Mebius crouched down and pulled another Divine Key, the Star of Eden, from Walter's body.
Looking at the deep blue sphere in his hand, Möbius shook his head and said, "Eden's heart is not here," before handing it to Sakura.
"This guy named Walter is quite aggressive; if you hadn't come, it would have been difficult for me to take him down quietly."
Sakura accepted the Star of Eden and carefully put it away.
"Shall we go find Miss Anna now?"
Sakura asked.
"Of course, I'll handle persuading her, but I don't think it should be a difficult process."
The two then arrived at another floating island of the Destiny headquarters.
This is a weapons testing range.
When Anna saw the two of them, her face was full of confusion, as if she could almost speak for herself.
Anna hasn't felt too comfortable here lately, and has even felt a bit awkward.
Former members of Schicksal, they later joined World Serpent, and now they've come to Schicksal with Mebius, effectively forming an alliance.
In combat, Schicksal will not consider her one of their Valkyries, so they will not assign her any missions.
Mebius had no intention of sending her out to fight; he simply had her stay there temporarily to handle some basic security duties.
"We're getting close to the most crucial moment, but we have plenty of time to explain the whole story to you, so feel free to ask anything."
Mebius said with ease.
Anna opened her mouth, but didn't know where to begin her question.
Let's start with what we care about most.
What exactly is Bai Yan trying to do?
"save the world."
Mebius put it succinctly.
Anna perked up at the words, straightened her graceful posture, and asked rhythmically, "What should I do next?"
Upon seeing this, Sakura's eyelids twitched.
Mebius gave her a look.
It's as if she's saying: I told you she was very obedient, didn't I?
"I have to tell you one thing: when I was dealing with your law-related issues, I made some modifications to your body, but I haven't told you about it because of your mindset."
"..."
Not only Anna, but Sakura also felt that Mebius was far too unreliable.
You're only telling me this now?!
However, Mebius continued calmly, "Simply put, your adaptability to the Herrscher core is far stronger than before. Although you are not the main character in this plan, I have still prepared a few extra backup plans to ensure the success rate."
Anna glanced at Sakura upon hearing this, only to find that the latter did not react at all.
It seems there's no problem then.
Immediately afterwards, Sakura took out the All Things Sleeping technique from her person and handed it to Anna.
Sakura then said, "This Divine Key comes from the Herrscher of Ice from a previous civilization, and in terms of power, it is essentially of the same origin as yours. Next, we will go to a place full of unknowns, and when the specific moment arrives, I will ask you to unleash your full power."
Is that all?
"Correct."
"I heard that Lady Durandal has disappeared without a trace. Could she also be involved in this plan?"
Sakura looked at Mebius.
The latter said with a strange expression, "You know it's about being involved, not about being involved."
"..."
"Kevin's descendants share his temperament. As long as they perceive that the other party is trustworthy and what they are doing is right, they will rush forward without hesitation. Durandal is unique in the world for being able to do this even after breaking free from the shackles of [Salvation]."
Mebius added, "She is the most special Stigmata Awakener and the most suitable person to directly participate in the execution of the Stigmata part. If we only have Yu Tu, this part is really short of people, which is a real headache."
"The part about the Stigmata..."
"In the absence of hope, the Stigmata Project is a complete contingency plan. But... if there is hope, it can be either a stepping stone or a lie."
At this point, Möbius looked up at the sky.
"Fortunately, it became a lie, and not just a stepping stone. Otherwise, two graves next to each other would have been too unsightly."
Anna seemed to understand, but not quite.
The part I can understand is that this is the best-case scenario right now?
"Alright, we've got the Thousand Realms One Vehicle in hand. Now we can observe and wait for the right opportunity..."
Mebius patted Anna on the back and said.
Stigmata Space.
Durandal is in a special state.
She couldn't see any road and was moving forward solely by instinct.
That mysterious space of the Holy Mark was with her, also invisible, but she could feel it, and that the space of the Holy Mark was able to move forward because of her.
Durandal never hesitates when it comes to moving forward.
At this very moment, she remains the same; even with countless doubts still lingering, she will not stop moving forward.
Sudden.
Her expression changed, as if she had sensed something discordant.
He stopped abruptly and slammed his lance into the ground.
boom!
Within the space of the Holy Mark, a figure staggered into existence.
"Huh?!"
After finally regaining her balance, Velvi looked up and noticed Durandal's dangerous scrutinizing gaze, and gave an awkward smile.
"Ahaha... Well, this is actually part of Mei's plan, please be sure to—"
"How did you get in here, and how did you find me so precisely?"
Vilvi thought to herself, "This child seems quite naive, but he's actually not stupid at all."
"Here's what happened,"
"I was actually mainly responsible for creating this special sacred mark space," Vervi said. "So I'm quite familiar with it."
Durandal nodded.
Compared to the technology of the previous civilization, not only she, but even Otto could only look up to it.
But at that moment, Mistelin suddenly appeared.
Durandal knew that she had always been within this Sacred Mark space.
Upon seeing her, the latter asked, "Do you know what she's here for?"
On this point, Vilvi, who was not trusted, wisely chose to keep quiet.
Upon hearing this, Mistelin extended a slender finger, tapped her chin in thought for a moment, and tentatively said, "Perhaps, how about hitching a ride?"
Durandal then looked at Vervie.
Velvi: "..."
Chapter 284 One person, one punch; don't try to take it.
The dormant cocoon is slowly entering the awakening stage.
The indescribable battle continues.
