Chapter 87: Plan?
Slap——!
Otto took out a fly swatter from somewhere and slapped the Pinocchio on the table as if he were hitting a pest.
"Hey, I'm a Herrscher to! We're colleagues, can you please give me some face?" The Pinocchio got up and shouted angrily.
Then... slap! The puppet fell silent again.
"Please don't act funny while we're talking about something important." Otto put away the fly swatter as if nothing had happened.
Then the blond man turned back to look at Kiana: "We just hope to be able to move more freely in this world."
"And what you have to do is to share the power with us for a while temporarily." Otto slowly straightened his clothes. "Of course, this is only temporary. 'We' are still a part of you in the final analysis. You still have the right to control and deprive 'us' at any time as an owner."
"How about it? Think about it and let us handle this trouble for you..."
Kiana stood up with her big belly: "It seems that I don't have any better choice?"
"But let me make it clear first, I'm a client who is not easy to serve," Kiana said, although she instinctively felt that Otto in front of her did not tell the whole truth, as if he had concealed part of it from her.
"Of course, our service will satisfy you." Otto, or the remnants remaining in the Herrscher's core, said so.
"By the way, we also need to borrow the captain of our dear Hyperion. Of course, we will not cause any harm to him."

"Bishop Otto? Do you have any instructions?" Rita took out her cell phone in the room, and her words were very formal and respectful.
At the same time, there was a strong curiosity in her eyes: 'Is the bishop of this world still alive? And it seems that his personality is not very serious.'
"Nothing... Rita, you haven't reported to me for a long time." The familiar and slightly provocative voice came from the other end of the phone, "Did you encounter any difficulties?"
"report?" Rita thought for a moment in her mind and finally found similar related content in an inconspicuous corner.
'This was the order that Bishop Otto gave to me before I came to the captain's side in this world.'
'Keep an eye on the captain and Kiana's every move, and report any special circumstances in a timely manner.'
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency the Bishop, I neglected this..." Rita took a deep breath and felt very sorry. Even if it was the time she spent with the captain in this world, she was too happy to leave...
So much so that sometimes even work is forgotten...
"Please allow me to sort out the specific situation later..."
boom--!
Before Rita could finish her words, a loud explosion was heard from downstairs.
"This sound? It came from the kitchen on the first floor? Captain!" Rita immediately hung up the phone and rushed to the first floor.
"Hello? Rita, what happened?"
Perhaps Rita, out of concern, completely overlooked some suspicious details, such as Kiana, who was supposed to be in the living room on the second floor but was nowhere to be seen...
When Rita ran to the first floor, she found that the originally warm dessert shop was filled with pungent smoke.
"Is it a smoke bomb?" Rita immediately covered her mouth and nose with a cold light in her eyes, "Who is it? How dare you attack the captain!"
Rita suppressed her discomfort, squatted on the ground, and picked up a table knife that was blown away by the explosion and hit her feet.
Whether she is a top Valkyrie in the world of Schicksal, or she is one of the few people in this world whose skills can be said to be among the best in the world among ordinary people.
Rita is not someone who can be manipulated by anyone.
"Rita? Were you attacked? Are you okay?"
"Your Excellency the Bishop, I'm fine. It's just that Mr. Sora seems to have been attacked. I'm trying to confirm his current condition."
"..." After a few seconds of silence, Otto on the other side of the phone began to show the calmness that a bishop should have, "After rescuing Sora, retreat immediately. There is a medical pharmaceutical company under Schicksal one kilometer away from you."
"I'll send you the specific route..."
"You can retreat there, and I have already notified the security personnel there. Although their combat effectiveness cannot be relied upon, I have already notified them to prepare rescue equipment and carry out follow-up work..."
"Bishop Otto is still as meticulous as ever. It's always reassuring to have him as a teammate." Rita's lips curled up into a charming and dangerous smile.
Rita hung up the phone, the knife in her hand flashing coldly: "But how can I let go of someone who dares to attack the captain?"
She lowered her body and sensed a figure approaching in the thick fog.
Rita swung the knife in her hand first! This knife, which was usually difficult to cut steak, now made a sword sound that cut through the air under Rita's swing!
But unexpectedly, Rita's confident attack was easily dodged by the enemy.
The enemy failed to hit the target and immediately started to counterattack.
And then a powerful punch hit her chest heavily.
Unable to dodge in time, Rita could only use her arms to block.
'What a heavy punch!' The powerful force immediately knocked Rita back several meters.
Only then did Rita realize that this body of hers was not the body of a Valkyrie who could tear apart Titan mechas with her bare hands in that Schicksal world, but an ordinary person with great skills.
"Tsk..." Rita smacked her lips in dissatisfaction. When the smoke gradually dissipated, what she saw were two thugs with knife scars all over their faces, wearing ordinary clothes but bulletproof vests and holding weapons in their hands.
In some turbulent areas, nine out of ten people would dress like this. Of course, it is rare in China, where society is stable.
Perhaps the only difference between these two people and those rioters is that they are a little short...
They were probably only about 1.6 meters tall and malnourished.
"Ugh..." At this moment, Rita heard a very familiar scream of pain.
She glanced around and found that Sora, who had fainted, was right at her feet!
Perhaps due to the impact of the explosion, the whole person had fainted.
The reason why he sounded in pain while unconscious was because her high heels accidentally stepped on the captain's palm when she stepped back.
