Chapter 267

In the quiet room, there was only one girl crying silently. She had been crying all night.

Wendy, who had been reminded by Hua Yi, was certainly not mentally prepared for the current situation.

But many things cannot be faced without being mentally prepared.

When the cruel facts are presented in an irrefutable way, the so-called strength may be vulnerable, and even the weathered old man may collapse. What's more, Wendy is just a teenage girl.

Even among the students at St. Freya Academy, Wendy was not the older one.

Kind-hearted girls still have illusions.

Even if she really became a vessel for longing for gems, even if her legs were paralyzed by the implanted gems, and she was reduced from an A-level Valkyrie to a cripple who couldn't even walk normally, Wendy still harbored illusions..

She is willing to serve as a container for dangerous items for the sake of human safety, even if it costs her own future.

However, Wendy does hope that there is someone who can stay with her and talk to her when she is lonely.

Hua Yi gave Wendy warmth and hope, but Wendy knew that the other person was the captain of St. Freya Academy and had nothing to do with destiny.

Wendy hoped that there would be another person in the Oceania branch of the Destiny Organization to care for her.

At least, she had fought for this land, risking her own life to fight.

Unfortunately not.

It is not the other Valkyries who are cold-blooded, but the newly appointed senior management who prohibits Wendy from contacting other Valkyries on the grounds that"Valkyries have relatively high Honkai energy and may have a negative impact on the Desire Gem".

It's a very reasonable reason, and there's no excuse to refute it.

Wendy lived alone for many days, in a relatively independent space.

After all, this is the Destiny branch, and Valkyries are almost everywhere.

She thought she was used to it.

However, when she heard that the legendary Archbishop, whom she had never met but had heard about before, came to the Oceania branch in person and wanted to receive her, Wendy still couldn't help but have some fantasies.

Applause, affirmation, and even a commitment to treat your legs.

She doesn't need to take out the desire gem, just heal her legs. Wendy is willing to continue to be the container of the desire gem, but she is really not used to the life where she has lost the ability to walk.

She had obviously fought against giant Honkai Beasts on this land before, and was able to step on their heads nimbly, insert weapons into their bodies, and win the battle beautifully.

But, nothing.

With his wisdom, methods, and heart, Archbishop Otto is well-deserved as a leader.

However, Wendy received no promise of treatment for her legs, no real affirmation or praise.

During her meeting with Otto, all Wendy felt was a pressure that made it difficult for her to breathe.

And the coldness that treats her and even the entire Oceania branch as props.

That is definitely not the attitude of a superior towards his subordinates, but the arrogance of a high-level being towards a certain low-level existence.

Yes, arrogance.

Although Otto kept smiling, Wendy felt the arrogance.

The strength that the girl had worked so hard to build was shattered the moment she left the conference room.

Then, like opening Pandora's box, all negative things started to pour out.

When Wendy was crying, she even heard some kind of whisper.

It's not like human language, but she can understand it——

"Destroy humanity."

If it were not for the promise given to her by the captain of St. Freya Academy, as well as the warmth and hope, Wendy knew that she would probably sink into that very seductive whisper.

She tried her best. To soothe her emotions.

Wendy was confident that in just a day or two, she would be able to get over her sadness and face everything normally.

However, the whispers would appear from time to time.

The desire for gems was so dangerous, and she had become a time bomb. Should she really accept the captain's invitation to go to St. Freya Academy?

Also, is the captain really willing to commit to the trip?

Dong-dong-dong.

When Wendy was hesitant and helpless, a message came There was a knock on the door.

Wendy quickly wiped her tears, took a few deep breaths, and responded in a tone that was still normal and would not let anyone tell that she had cried.

"Well, just leave the food at the door. I will get it myself. Thank you."

Since the senior management has prevented her from meeting the Valkyrie, Wendy naturally can no longer go to public places such as the canteen. She is not used to relying on a wheelchair yet and does not want to go. The new senior management is not too cold-blooded and will be there at meal times. Arrange for someone to come and deliver the food

"It's not meal time now, and I'm not here to deliver food. Can I come in?"

The male voice that sounded made Wendy startled at first, and then her eyes gradually widened.

The tears that she had finally stopped began to flow again, and she tried to hold them back.

However, this time, it was not sadness.

"excuse me."

Hua Yi, who had waited for a while but received no response, pushed open the unlocked door.

The girl who once left an impression on Hua Yi of being innocent and kind, but also quite strong, like a qualified warrior, was now With a weak movement suitable for her age, she huddled up on the bed and hugged the pillow.

A moment ago, she should have been crying, and she cried for a long time, and the pillow was completely wet.

But at this moment, Wendy was watching helplessly Looking at Hua Yi.

Having already had her dream broken once, she was afraid that what Hua Yi brought was not the hope promised, but a deeper despair.

Previously, when faced with the attentive reception from the senior management of the Oceania branch, she still spoke directly and without pretense. Hua Yi, who asked them to keep a distance from him, showed a very gentle smile at this moment

"It seems that you are not happy here. Would it be an honor for me to invite you to St. Freya Academy?"

Hua Yi did not crush the girl's last hope. He came to fulfill his promise.

Wendy's tight heartstrings and the last psychological defense line built with difficulty relaxed, collapsed, and disappeared at this moment.

Then. What followed was a sudden increase in the concentration of Honkai energy.
