After finishing all this, Qi Shi smiled and looked at Theresa, who was not far away, with her eyes wide open as if she were lost in a melody of recognizing reality, and greeted her gently.

"Hello, Principal Theresa."

"You, you!" Theresa pointed her fair little finger at the other person. Looking at the students who had just promised to stand by her side but had all betrayed her the next second, she felt terrible. Her finger trembled as she pointed at Qi Shi, and she couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.

Rita was also observing and sizing up Qi Shi. He was handsome, with a bright and gentle expression that made him instantly likable, and he exuded a calm and composed aura.

As Otto's front man, she had no idea that there was such a person at headquarters, who was personally transferred by the bishop, without any information or resume, and was really parachuted in suddenly.

Moreover, the information doesn't mention how the other party got to know the three Valkyries and became so familiar with them.

"Hello, Mr. Qi Shi, this is Rita, the Valkyrie, sending her greetings."

Rita also greeted them, smiling and bowing slightly with impeccable manners, displaying a graceful and alluring demeanor.

"Nice to meet you, S-rank Valkyrie Rita. Dark Rose's name is known to everyone in Schicksal." Qi Shi also responded with a light laugh.

"Hehe~ Rita was just doing her duty."

Rita! I'm never talking to you again!

Seeing that everyone around him had betrayed him!

Theresa glared angrily at Qi Shi, still full of hostility, but beneath her youthful and pretty appearance, she was completely harmless, only appearing cute.

At this moment, she felt utterly dark inside. Her plan of rebellion had completely failed. Waaah, my Saint Freya, my Saint Freya! You wretched man! Give me back my Saint Freya!

Seeing this, Himeko knew that the playful confrontation was over and the matter was settled. Theresa was just sulking. The headmistress was still angry and hadn't made a move. As the pillar of St. Freya, she could only step forward and pay her respects to the new commander.

"Hello, I am Valkyrie Himeko, welcome to St. Freya."

"Next, Mei and I will show you around the academy and introduce you to the surroundings."

Although Mei had already agreed, it was clearly inappropriate to have only one student accompany them. Given the other person's status, it was natural to observe proper etiquette.

"Well, then I'll trouble you, Miss Himeko." Qi Shi nodded without hesitation.

Mei hesitated, wanting to say that she could actually manage on her own and wasn't afraid of getting tired.

But in the end, he could only follow behind the two of them. Accompanied by Himeko, Qi Shi visited and learned about various places in St. Freya Academy.

St. Freya is called an academy, but its essence is a combat organization that trains Valkyries and fights against the threat of Honkai. It has a very high level of education, as well as corresponding training facilities, simulated battlefields, and systematic professional combat training. In all aspects, it is world-class and extremely excellent.

But when the topic of daily lessons came up, Qi Shi couldn't help but frown.

"What's wrong?" Himeko noticed the change in Qi Shi's expression and asked.

"With only so few classes a day, how can we protect the world properly?" Qi Shi frowned slightly, as if he were looking at an old leader who lacked awareness. Himeko, standing beside him, seemed to be able to read the message from his dissatisfied expression.

I'm too relaxed, too lax! My afternoon classes are packed, plus two more evening study sessions!

How do you manage to sleep at your age?

Add ten more sessions, ten sessions per person. People who don't know better will think our Far East branch can't afford it.

Fu Hua, from China, agreed and silently gave a thumbs up.

You all in China must be living such miserable lives.

Himeko's lips twitched. To avoid Qi Shi suddenly issuing some "horrific" order and turning the academy into a learning hell filled with resentment, she immediately explained with a forced smile, "Our St. Freya's motto is to be as warm as home and to focus on cultivating character."

"Furthermore, the Valkyries have limited physical strength, so training with Honkai energy is not suitable for heavy intensity, otherwise it can easily cause damage to their bodies."

Not everyone can become stronger by working hard, like Kiana, Mei, or Durandal.

Honkai energy has never been a gentle thing. Most Valkyries don't even have the right to try. Exercising too much in one day will only damage their bodies. They are limited by their talent throughout their lives. Even Bronya had limitations in her use of Honkai energy.

As one of the many ordinary Valkyries, Himeko herself understands this feeling very well.

In the end, Qi Shi abandoned the idea of ​​exploiting the Valkyrie girls, and he never actually said those words.

The main reason is that they are training Valkyries, who are capable of fighting against the Honkai, rather than all-around agents or spies.

He knew the problem, so he chose to approach it from another angle: since the quantity couldn't be increased, he would improve efficiency to make the practical courses even more effective.

Let's give the memory battlefield of the simulation training a complete upgrade! Let's add a little bit of evil spirit shock.

Moreover, his previous transfer orders must have already taken effect.

Plan, go!

Chapter 111 The Far East Demon Cave Project

"Seriously, they were inexplicably transferred to this kind of place. Are all those big shots crazy? If they're insane, they should just jump off a building. What kind of business is it to come here and mess with other people like this?"

At the entrance of St. Freya Academy, a girl with short, green-gradient hair was grumbling.

Such iconic features are, of course, Wendy's.

At this moment, she was muttering to herself, cursing the entire family of the high-ranking officials of Destiny hundreds of times in her mind. Her expression was somewhat gloomy, and she was clearly in a bad mood.

Before this, Wendy was playing hacked mode in the Oceania branch, and her favorite things to do every day were training and wandering around the base in areas she couldn't go before.

Her rehabilitation training is progressing rapidly. Her physical fitness has long since recovered and is even stronger than before. She is now undergoing normal combat training.

In order to become stronger, and also in order to wait for the next meeting with him.

Wendy felt a surge of anger when she thought about it.

We had agreed to meet as soon as possible, but that wretched guy disappeared for a whole month without a word.

Despite her dissatisfaction, she kept her promise and waited for the other party to arrive.

Wendy wasn't worried at all, because she knew that guy would definitely come. Since they had made a promise, they would definitely meet again. All she needed to do was train hard, become stronger, and wait for the day they would meet again.

If the other person makes her wait too long, she will ignore him for thirty minutes!

But just yesterday, this life was disrupted. Wendy suddenly received a transfer order from the Destiny headquarters, moving her to the Far East branch to join some top-secret project.

Wendy had no desire to come, and she had absolutely no liking for this hypocritical academy.

There was also an unquenchable anxiety in my heart.

"I left the Oceania branch and was transferred to this godforsaken place. What if he can't find me when he comes back?"

"What if he misunderstands and thinks I broke my promise and left on my own because I didn't want to wait? No, no! I have to go back quickly!"

A series of thoughts kept popping into Wendy's mind as she frantically bit her nails in thought.

Although the Oceania branch is already in a cracked mode, she is still a registered Valkyrie on the surface and cannot openly disobey orders unless she wants to defect and leave the Oceania branch to wander around. So in the end, she had no choice but to come here.

But staying here forever isn't an option.

She needed to find a way to get out of this hellhole as soon as possible and return to the Oceania branch.

"Excuse me, are you also a newly transferred Valkyrie?"

Just then, a pleasant voice came from beside her. Wendy turned her head and saw a figure.

This is a gentle young woman with long chestnut hair, a beautiful face, and tender pink eyes. White fabric hugs her slender figure, while soft blue fabric drapes over the other side, revealing her fair shoulders. Her overall demeanor is elegant and graceful.

The girl tentatively asked Wendy a question, her manners impeccable, suggesting she came from a prominent family, which was indeed the case.

“My name is Anna Schariac.”

Seeing that the other person was looking over, Anna breathed a slight sigh of relief and then took the initiative to introduce herself.

Seeing the other person's somewhat gloomy aura, she thought he was not a very easy person to get along with. But since he was going to be her companion in the future, she decided to greet him anyway.

“Shaniat?”

Upon hearing the surname, Wendy raised an eyebrow. As a 'commoner genius' who relied on her own efforts and talent, she didn't care much about background or power, but among Valkyries, almost everyone had heard of this surname.

Represented by the Saintess, they have nurtured many outstanding Valkyries generation after generation, making outstanding contributions to the fight against the Honkai. Together with the Kaslana and Apocalypse, they are known as the three great families of Schicksal and are the pillars of Schicksal.

"I'm just an insignificant member with no real talent. You can just call me Anna."

"A-rank Valkyrie of Destiny, belonging to the Destiny Snow Lotus Squad..."

Anna spoke softly, appearing very humble. She truly felt this way; compared to someone as great as Lady Cecilia, she was just a family member with average talent and a somewhat weak personality. At the end, the girl paused for a moment.

"Hehe~ That shouldn't be the case now, right? When I was transferred here, I had already left the Snow Lotus Squad."

Anna smiled and spoke softly, concealing her somewhat downcast mood. After all, she had worked so hard to join the Snow Lotus Squad, and she was proud of it. Being suddenly transferred away naturally made her feel a little down.

"Wendy," Wendy said, her tone neither good nor bad. Suddenly, she scoffed, her words full of mockery of fate.

"As for my rank, I don't know if my Valkyrie number is still valid. I hope I wasn't transferred here under the title of some kind of 'special experimental subject'."

Anna paused slightly, sensing that her companion's background seemed rather complicated. She asked softly, her tone somewhat uncertain.

"Wendy, were you also transferred here to participate in that top-secret project?"

She was transferred here from the Snow Wolf Squad after receiving a transfer order to participate in an unknown project and with the personal approval of the Bishop of Destiny.

The insecure girl secretly glanced at Wendy, thinking to herself.

Are her other companions also such special people? But she herself is just an ordinary Valkyrie, not strong enough and somewhat weak in personality.

She couldn't understand why she had been chosen.

Wendy just snorted coldly; she was annoyed by the mention of it.

"Um..." Seeing her expression, Anna didn't ask any more questions and stood awkwardly and shyly to the side.

The two walked together, following the address through a section of the campus, and finally arrived at the door of a room deep inside St. Freya, which was their destination according to the address.

The corridors and the entire building were quiet, and the doors standing there seemed to lead to a dark and secluded place.

Upon finally arriving at her destination and into this atmosphere, Anna felt a little uneasy. She lowered her breath and secretly glanced cautiously at the crack in the door, as if trying to peek inside to prepare herself mentally.

Unlike Anna, who was somewhat nervous, Wendy pushed open the door and went inside without hesitation upon arrival.

Miss Green Seele, who has always wanted to betray Destiny and be with someone, no longer cares about Destiny's rules. In the entire Far East Branch, the only person who can make her emotionally change is probably a certain hypocritical little mentor.

I wonder if attacking the branch leader will result in severe punishment and expulsion from the plan to return to the Oceania branch.

Wendy walked straight into the room, but to her surprise, unlike the quiet and secluded impression outside, the room was bright and clean, resembling a classroom. Anna, who followed behind her, walked in somewhat nervously and awkwardly.

There were already several people in the classroom at this time.

Wendy's gaze fell upon a silver-gray-haired girl chatting with a blue-haired girl. The delicate blue-haired girl occasionally flashed a sweet smile, while in the corner sat a gray-haired girl with glasses, quietly reading a book, oblivious to everything else.

Wendy didn't even glance at them before finding a place to sit down, while Anna nodded apologetically to the three of them before finding a quiet spot closer to Wendy.

Bronya also noticed the two who had arrived, and her gaze lingered on Wendy for two seconds.
