"Lady Li Sushang, compared to the Honkai events within the city, the threat posed by those menacing Honkai beasts from the marine biome is far greater."
The number of Honkai Beasts in the marine biome is enormous. If they are allowed to rampage across the land, the city will be destroyed in an instant.
Perhaps worried that Li Sushang might not understand the threat posed by the Honkai Beasts in the Ocean Biosphere, Anna provided a detailed explanation to help Li Sushang comprehend it.
Li Sushang felt a bit confused, but she nodded thoughtfully, as if to say, "I think I understand."
……
A week later.
With Li Sushang's help, the Snow Lotus Squad's garrison mission became much easier.
True.
The four B-rank Valkyries have not yet recovered from their injuries and are unable to handle the Honkai incident in the short term. However, with Anna taking their place, it will not affect the efficiency of handling the Honkai incident.
Li Sushang took over Anna's previous important task, guarding the coast of Coral Island and killing or repelling all the marine biome Honkai Beasts that attempted to invade the land.
Since the Honkai Cult caused havoc in Coral Plaza a week ago, it has completely disappeared without a trace, showing no signs of activity. Only its ignorant followers remain, praying day and night for meager spiritual comfort.
Chapter 296 Rita Roseweather
Over the past week, Anna's sleep quality has been getting worse and worse. Every time she closes her eyes, she sees the scene of the middle-aged man dying.
"The chosen ones will surely launch a great purge against humanity!"
These words were like a persistent nightmare, constantly troubling Anna.
As a result, Anna always has a strange illusion when she looks in the mirror—
The features were so familiar, yet now they felt like those of a stranger.
The conflicting senses created a strange sense of disconnect in Anna, as if...
His entire face was violently torn apart and then roughly and randomly pieced back together, giving his face a familiar yet strange feeling.
"What exactly is going on?"
Anna murmured to herself, and couldn't help but reach out and touch her face.
Just as she had imagined, the skin on her face also had a strange, disjointed feel to it.
Even though it was my own palm touching it, it felt like a stranger was touching me, and my palm did indeed feel like it was touching my face.
Anna stared blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar "person in the mirror," as if suddenly realizing something, and frantically pulled at her hair.
"No, no... This isn't me, this is definitely not me..."
"I know! This...this must be a Honkai event!"
"I must inform Lady Li Sushang as soon as possible..."
Anna staggered toward the door, but just as she was about to touch it, she stopped abruptly.
"strangeness……"
"Am I... resisting leaving the room?"
Anna appeared dazed.
After a moment of silence, she suddenly turned and walked towards the mirror, muttering to herself as if possessed: "Perhaps... only I can solve this collapse incident. Lady Li Sushang probably can't help."
……
Manchester, England.
Qiu Bi frowned, then opened his eyes blankly.
Before his consciousness had fully returned to his body, he felt a heavy pressure on his body.
When I lifted the blanket, I saw Bella lying naked on top of me, like a docile cat.
Perhaps noticing that Qiu Bi had lifted the blanket, Bella shifted slightly, as if in protest.
"..."
Qiu Bi silently covered himself with the blanket, then looked at the pretty woman beside him.
Eden is on the left, which is normal.
As for the right side...
Qiu Bi looked at the amber resting on his right hand and gradually fell into memories.
What exactly happened last night?
Qiu Bi's mind was somewhat confused as he tried to sift through his jumbled memories to recall what had happened the previous night.
Before long, he recalled what had happened the night before.
Eden got drunk.
In addition, Eden also dragged Bella and Amber along when he was drinking, so much so that the two girls were quite drunk at the time.
Although not drunk, her consciousness became hazy and confused under the influence of alcohol.
True.
Bella and Amber can both ignore the effects of alcohol, but it's not necessary; some things are actually easier to do after drinking.
For example, she would secretly get Qiu Bi drunk while kissing him, or Bella would encourage Amber to join in the subsequent exercise...
After thinking through what had happened last night, Qiu Bi couldn't help but sigh.
Last night, I originally thought that drinking a little might add some fun, but I never expected that this would be exactly what Eden and Bella wanted. In the end, I vaguely agreed to let Amber join us.
"...How are we going to explain this to Otto and Karen?"
Qiu Bi immediately fell into deep thought.
Amber and Karen look exactly alike, practically twins, except for their completely different personalities.
Qiu Bi pondered for a while, then decisively gave up thinking, chose to hug Eden and Amber tightly, and started to go back to sleep.
Last night's expenses were too high, and I urgently need to get plenty of rest to replenish my body's deficit.
Neither Bella nor Eden possessed a physique comparable to Sofia, Alexandra, or Lady Hilfalia.
The fusion warrior's physique is even stronger than Cecilia's, who is an S-class Valkyrie, so naturally, the "feed" required by the fusion warrior is more than that of Cecilia.
Just as Qiu Bi went back to sleep, Bella woke up on time and tiptoed out of bed, trying to keep her movements as quiet as possible so as not to disturb Qiu Bi, Eden, and Amber's rest.
The soft rustling sound of dressing could be heard as Bella skillfully changed into her maid outfit.
Fogsea Manor usually has fog maids who are responsible for cleaning and housekeeping services, so Bella doesn't need to play the role of a "maid". Most of the time she wears her everyday clothes and rarely changes into a maid outfit.
Now, when Bella travels, she takes on the role of "maid" again.
"Oh? I almost forgot, I accidentally got this outfit dirty yesterday."
Bella was halfway through putting on the dress when she noticed the liquid residue on the hem, so she took out a new maid outfit from her "portable space".
Then, she glanced back at the bed and saw that everyone was still asleep. She smiled and then pushed open the door to leave.
After leaving her temporary residence, Bella crossed her hands over her lower abdomen and strolled gracefully through the streets and alleys of Manchester.
Not long after, she stopped in front of a flower shop.
This florist has a good reputation in Manchester, and most people who want to buy flowers usually come here.
"Oh? Miss Bella is here so early today?"
"Yes, we ran out of rose petals at home, so we came here specifically to buy some."
Bella smiled slightly, then asked in return, "Miss Rita, your shop should also sell rose petals, right?"
Rose petals have three benefits when used in a bath: relieving fatigue, nourishing the skin, and promoting blood circulation.
Because of its skin-nourishing properties, rose petal baths were very popular among the wealthy, so much so that every florist in Manchester sold rose petals.
As for the flower shop in front of Bella, it was run by the girl named Rita Roseweather.
Although Rita's family wasn't wealthy, they were still quite well-off. They employed several maids, and Rita herself was skilled in etiquette, such as flower arranging and playing the piano.
In addition, Rita's academic performance was also excellent. According to her own account, she had casually learned more than a dozen languages in her spare time.
However, according to Bella's observation, Rita herself was highly skilled in "maid skills," only slightly weaker than Bella.
“We just received a new batch of rose petals. Would Miss Bella like to choose some herself?” Rita smoothed her short, grey-blonde hair and smiled gently. “Or perhaps I could choose some for Miss Bella?”
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss Rita."
"It's alright, it's my duty. Miss Bella, how many people's worth of rose petals do you need?"
“Let me think about it…” Bella hesitated for a few seconds, then made a decision, “Let’s buy enough for fifteen people for now.”
“Okay, Miss Bella, feel free to browse around the store. I’ll go prepare some rose petals right away.”
Chapter 297 If nothing unexpected happens, then something unexpected has happened.
The flower shop has a wide variety of flowers, creating a vibrant and colorful display.
Bella walked among the flowers, admiring the diverse array of blossoms, but her mind was already contemplating something—
Should she plant some flowers?
After thinking about it for a while, Bella temporarily put the idea aside.
We are currently on "tourism" and it's not convenient to bring potted plants with us. We can only consider planting flowers after we return to Fog Sea Manor.
Thinking about what would happen after returning to Fogsea Manor, Bella suddenly remembered something—Sophia and Alexandra seemed to be nearing their due dates.
"Tell Qiu Bi about this after he wakes up."
Bella murmured softly, but she knew very well that Qiu Bi must know that Sofia and Alexandra were nearing their due dates.
As for why Qiu Bi didn't make any statement...
Bella, however, has no idea.
After pausing for a moment, Bella resumed her elegant strides and strolled through the flower shop.
Rita didn't keep Bella waiting long; she quickly brought over a bag of rose petals.
