A peaceful life captivated these Valkyries.
After Durandal and Rita returned to headquarters, Honkai incidents immediately decreased significantly.
It was because Durandal, leading the Immortal Blades, had been clearing them up all over the world that they had been able to rest for so long.
It could be said that when Durandal was on vacation, it was the busiest time for Valkyries in other branches.
That day, Theresa received another mission.
The content of the mission was to investigate Sky Dome City.
This was based on reports from Schicksal's intelligence personnel in Sky Dome City.
The frequency of Honkai incidents in Sky Dome City recently was too high.
Furthermore, the number of people infected with Honkai Energy within Sky Dome City had also increased sharply.
It looked as if someone was experimenting with Honkai Energy in Sky Dome City.
As soon as she received the mission information, Theresa contacted Einstein.
She only learned that Anti-Entropy's conservative faction had not conducted any experiments; most of their personnel were currently in Haiyuan City preparing to activate the Sea of Quanta.
As for the radical faction, they didn't have much information either.
After some thought, Theresa still accepted the mission.
Because Aili had previously inspected Heliopos Life Science in Sky Dome City.
This time, they could still use the pretext of an inspection to go to Heliopos Life Science and then investigate the entire Sky Dome City.
After thinking it over, Theresa took her terminal and found Aili, who was training.
"Aili, there's a mission here that might require your assistance," Theresa said, directly handing the terminal to Aili.
"A mission?" Aili took the terminal with some confusion.
Looking at the information on it, "Sky Dome City?"
"Yes, didn't you go to Heliopos Life Science before? This time, find an excuse to go to Heliopos Life Science first, and then conduct an investigation of Sky Dome City," Theresa nodded and said.
"Didn't you ask the official authorities of Shenzhou?" Aili asked, puzzled.
Missions within Shenzhou's territory should be handled by Shenzhou's official authorities, right?
Why had this mission come to the Far East Branch?
"Shenzhou's official authorities also conducted an investigation, but no matter how they investigated, these Honkai incidents all seemed like coincidences."
"They always felt something was wrong, so they asked us to help investigate again," Theresa said, then pointed to the location on the terminal.
"These are all traces of Honkai occurrences they found, and they've all been handled very cleanly."
"It's precisely because they're too clean that they believe these Honkai incidents might be man-made."
When Theresa said this, she sighed, "They are too cautious, and given our cooperative relationship, I couldn't refuse, so I can only trouble you to make a trip."
Theresa then revealed her ultimate reason for coming to Aili.
Within Saint Freya, the Valkyries who had a good relationship with Shenzhou were Aili and Fu Hua.
"Alright, then I'll go," Aili nodded.
Heliopos Life Science, are they attempting to carry out the Stigmata Project?
"That's great! Do you want Fu Hua to come with you?"
"Hua? Then Hua and I will go together."
Before long, the airship bound for Sky Dome City was ready.
This time, it wasn't a small airship, but a small floating battleship.
Because their reason for going to Sky Dome City was to transport a new batch of Anti-Honkai Serum to Heliopos Life Science.
As for Aili and Fu Hua, although they were on the battleship, their names were not on the manifest.
They were going for a secret investigation.
Aili had thought about directly infiltrating Heliopos Life Science and telling Theresa about their experiments.
But Heliopos Life Science was also very clean; Aili couldn't find anything.
Regarding this, Aili also knew that Heliopos Life Science, which was World Serpent, their laboratory was probably completely isolated from the outside world, with no signal communication whatsoever.
It was truly an uncomfortable feeling to know that Heliopos Life Science was responsible but have no evidence.
However, Aili had no suitable reason to refute Theresa's decision to have them accompany the floating battleship to Heliopos Life Science.
After all, among Schicksal's transportation methods to Sky Dome City, only this type of supply transport battleship was inconspicuous enough.
Or rather, not so prominent.
A small airship entering Sky Dome City would be known by many people in minutes.
Such a floating battleship appeared periodically, and the people of Sky Dome City had grown accustomed to it.
Standing on the floating battleship, Aili sighed.
Coming to investigate, but going directly to the culprit's lair, it really felt unaccustomed.
"What's wrong?" Fu Hua asked Aili.
"Hua, if I said that Heliopos Life Science is the culprit behind those Honkai incidents in Sky Dome City, would you believe me?" Aili said, looking at the approaching Sky Dome City.
"I believe you," Fu Hua nodded directly.
Aili turned directly to look at Fu Hua, "You... aren't you going to ask why? I don't have any evidence, you know."
"Because you said it, and you don't lie," Fu Hua said seriously.
Aili bit her lip, "Hua, you're being very unfair like this. Who said I don't lie? What if I'm lying to you?"
"If you lie to me, there must be a certain reason. I don't think you would hurt me," Fu Hua leaned on the railing.
Aili had never seen Fu Hua in such a relaxed posture, "Hua, you trust me too much."
"You trust me a lot too, don't you?"
"You... when did you learn to say such things!" Aili's eyes widened; she could hardly believe what she heard.
Could these words really come from the person Xiao Xuan always called Blockhead?
"Hmm? I'm just speaking according to my understanding. Haven't you trusted me a lot since we first met?" Fu Hua turned around and looked at Aili somewhat strangely.
"You gave me trust, and I will give you trust in return," Fu Hua said very seriously, looking into Aili's eyes.
"Sure enough, Hua is still Hua, still that Blockhead," Aili sighed powerlessly.
She always unintentionally says things that make people misunderstand, and she doesn't even realize it.
Xiao Xuan, it must be hard taking care of such a Blockhead.
"Hua, don't say such things to those little Valkyries who admire you, otherwise, I'm afraid they'll start fighting," Aili said, patting Fu Hua's shoulder.
While the two were still chatting, the floating battleship had already arrived at the rooftop of Heliopos Life Science.
The floating battleship did not land directly on the rooftop but hovered.
If it landed directly, it was questionable whether the building could withstand it.
While Heliopos Life Science's staff were transporting the serum.
Aili and Fu Hua brazenly walked out of the battleship.
They had thought about hiding.
But hiding didn't seem to have much meaning.
Just as Aili had said, Heliopos Life Science was the culprit behind the Honkai incidents.
Aili and Fu Hua intended to directly investigate Heliopos Life Science.
