Chapter 176 The Roar of the Launch Site Couldn't Be Heard in My Dream~
"Corallie, what were you doing before?!"
After finally managing to drag her unreliable teammates back to their double room, Helia gave Coralie a good scolding.
“I wouldn’t say anything if you were just casual around normally, but this is about interacting with seniors from the past!”
"Oh, so what?"
Coralie ignored Helia's shouting and continued to eat sunflower seeds while operating her Cambrian.
"Corallie, do you even have a sense of crisis?!"
When Helia saw Coralli walking towards Fu Hua and Kiana with a smile on her face, she was really confused. Even though she admired her senior, she didn't dare to talk to Fu Hua and Kiana, who were there for some unknown reason. What if she changed too much history? Wouldn't she be unable to go back?
In Helia's opinion, Coralie was practically about to blurt out, "We are Valkyries from the future," which was really...
"Shouldn't there be records of this in the Cambrian period?"
"Coralie, are you even listening to me?"
Seeing that Helia was on the verge of going berserk, Coralli finally put down the sunflower seeds in her hand and handed Cambrian to Helia with a serious expression.
"Of course I was listening to Helia, but I was just checking."
"Confirm what?"
Although she didn't know what the strategist was up to, Helia still accepted Cambrian.
"According to the publicly available Destiny Secrets files, the Tranquility Gem will appear in Singapore due to anti-entropy, and then arrive in North America after a struggle."
However, this is not the case. There is no Herrscher Gem in Singapore at all. The gem has been taken to Anti-Entropy headquarters by Welt!
"Why...why doesn't it match? Could it be that we've unknowingly..."
Helia was puzzled; they hadn't done anything!
"Foolish Helia, think about it, who else could it be but us? Leaving that aside, it proves one thing: history can be changed!"
The two of them completely failed to consider the possibility of falsified documents.
"But rewriting history at will can have unpredictable consequences..."
Herria's worry contrasted sharply with Coralie's nonchalance.
"Don't worry, the fact that we're here means that fate allows for some degree of change. And who knows, we might even be able to make things go in a better direction."
As Helia perused the Cambrian archives, she frowned.
"Two days later, the Manila Collapse..."
……
Late at night, Helia couldn't sleep. Two images flashed through her mind simultaneously: one was a town that had survived the Honkai catastrophe, and the other was Coralie's deduction that "history can be changed"...
Although Helia, as a Valkyrie from the post-Honkai era, had zero experience dealing with the Great Honkai, upon seeing the records of the Cambrian period, two little figures involuntarily popped into her mind.
A little figure said, "The Great Collapse will occur in Manila in two days. As a Schicksal A-rank Valkyrie, Erdős Helia cannot stand idly by!"
And another little person said...
"Yes, you're right!"
Thinking of this, Helia was moved: How can you sleep when disaster is about to strike?
"Coralie, are you asleep?"
"She was just sleeping."
Helia saw the strategist turn over and look at her with slight displeasure.
"I'll give you a chance to explain, or I'll blame you for my short stature."
"I have an idea: to record the Manila catastrophe of the day after tomorrow—no, tomorrow—in the Cambrian period!"
"You idiot Helia, what do you mean?"
"Stop all of this!"
Coralie, who had been in a daze, instantly woke up and started shouting.
"Idiot, this is drastically altering history!"
"But didn't you say that a certain degree of change wouldn't be a big deal? Besides, if we ignore it, many people will die!"
Coralie sat up and pointed to the archives on the Cambrian.
"But in the end, according to the historical entropy reversal, most people will be safe and sound and can be saved, and the Moon Throne will purify half of Manila, right?"
"But what about the people?"
Helia became more and more excited as she spoke, which also made Coralie excited.
"Won't the civilians be protected by the Valkyries? Besides, the records show he participated in that Honkai, so there won't be any major problems! The affected people will eventually receive treatment, and I don't think it's necessary to risk changing history on such a large scale..."
"What about all those civilians and Valkyries who died! Coralie, are you even a qualified A-rank Valkyrie?!"
"..."
Coralie is now starting to regret her actions. Why did she have to be so cheeky and provoke Fu Hua and Qiyana? In order to deal with Helia, she even proposed the argument that history can be changed to a limited extent...
To maintain the general stability of history, is the only option to painfully watch the collapse of Manila?
Thinking about it this way, isn't she a little cold-blooded?
To uphold history and ensure a safe return home, or to intervene in the Great Collapse to protect the lives of the people? A truly excellent Valkyrie would undoubtedly choose the latter, but Coralie…
Fine, I'll just go crazy with this idiot this time.
"Oh ho ho ho! Good, good, good! This time, the Demon King Coralie agrees with that idiot Helia's idea, we can't just sit idly by!"
"That's more like it!"
With a beaming smile, Helia reached out and patted Coralie's head.
"Don't touch it, or you'll stunt your growth!"
"Sorry, sorry, I won't touch it again!"
But why didn't I notice it felt so good before?
"But if we get involved, what should we do next?"
"Should we call Mr. Walter and the others?"
“But Manila is under the jurisdiction of Destiny.”
"Then how about trying to contact the Destiny Headquarters?"
"Two unidentified individuals predicted a Honkai, which might be useful later, but it certainly won't be useful for this Honkai."
"What should I do?"
Looking at He, who was all height and no brains, the strategist shook his head helplessly.
Indeed, the best things come in small packages. That hot-blooded idiot can only raise questions; it's up to her to solve them.
“I happen to know someone who is involved in this matter. I don’t think he’s changed his number all these years… Never mind, I’ll call him when it’s light.”

"Old Chen, what kind of food do you like to eat?"
"I……"
Qiong's inexplicable invitation to her siblings to share a table (which failed) left everyone bewildered. What was she trying to achieve?
No one understood, but Anna had a wild guess in her mind: the Sky-Terror Woman.
The enthusiastic Qiong left Chen Tianwu at a loss, and Qiong's behavior of basically abandoning several girls and putting her arm around the shoulder of a stranger she had just met made Chen Tianwu feel even more uncomfortable—mainly because when he looked down to eat, he always felt that several pairs of angry eyes were staring at him.
The only one who was somewhat happy was little Chen Tianwen. Of the six, apart from the instigator Qiong, only the little girl who couldn't read the room ate the most.
"This is difficult..."
Qiong tried his best to get closer to Wenwu and his sister, but all he managed to do was get Chen Tianwu to introduce him. The main effort was all directed at Chen Tianwen.
drop by drop...
"Is there a phone call?"
Who would call him at this time?
Even Einstein said to eat first before taking any action, so could it be Mei?
Qiong took out her phone; it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello, who is it?"
The person on the other end of the phone hesitated for a moment, then started humming a song.
"I can't hear the roar of the launch site in my dreams~"
"what?"
"And I can't see the desolate, deep sky either."
"This is..."
Dead memories are attacking the sky, the grass beside the house?!
"You said this was a code, that I'd sing it to you and you'd help me, right?"
Qiong: ? ? ?
Did he say that?
Did they dial the wrong number? But that voice...
"And please remember, don't say I remind you of Lynette! I'm Coralie Planck! Seriously though you might not believe it, a massive collapse is about to erupt in Manila, Philippines, where you're either going or currently residing..."
"Qiong, what's wrong?"
Seeing Qiong's astonished expression, Anna asked.
"Forehead……"
Qiong didn't speak; he was thinking.
The result of my thinking was that my mind went completely blank.

My streak of updates has ended...
The price of procrastination, ugh!
I haven't been doing wire work lately.
