Chapter 174 - Chapter 174: Watt (not offline yet)

"Report, a suspected Valkyrie has been found in the hotel."

"For Maji's safety, I've been assigned to reinforce the room's defenses," Fu Hua said after knocking on the door.

"Understood, come in," a familiar voice echoed from inside the room.

The room door opened, revealing no light inside, and Fu Hua walked straight in.

Then, the door behind her slammed shut with a bang.

In Fu Hua's ear, a voice whispered, "Welcome to the cage, Little Bug."

Then, the person behind Fu Hua snapped their fingers, and suddenly, spider-like robots appeared in the room, emitting dangerous electrical arcs.

"Hua, pretend to be electrocuted," Aili's voice simultaneously came through the earpiece.

The electrical arcs from the robots extended to Fu Hua, who quickly feigned electrocution, though she felt nothing.

The robots' electric shock only affected her clothes.

Soon, the electrical arcs from the robots disappeared, and Fu Hua also pretended to faint, collapsing onto the floor.

With a dangerous spherical object in the man's hand, Fu Hua's body floated up from the ground.

"Heh heh, a Little Kitten who fell into a trap is quite cute."

"However, your clothes were burned by the electric shock; I'll help you take them off."

Saying that, the man reached out and unbuttoned Fu Hua's jacket.

At this moment, Fu Hua opened her eyes, "So it's you, the so-called First Herrscher who attacked the Academy."

"You actually know my identity? However, I've never been to any Academy," the man said, directly tearing off Fu Hua's jacket.

"Now, Little Kitten, you should play with me properly. I won't kill you before I leave this city," the man said, directly pinching Fu Hua's chin.

"Before leaving the city? Has the gem already been moved?" Fu Hua asked with a bitter smile.

"Tsk, still thinking about the mission at a time like this?" the man said, taking off the hood he wore, his expression full of disdain.

"Don't worry, that thing is still in the underground vault, but you won't have a chance to see it," the man said, reaching for Fu Hua's shirt, intending to tear it off as well.

But suddenly, the man felt his chin get hit by something, and his tongue was directly bitten off by himself.

Then, he saw Fu Hua break free from the constraints of his ability.

Looking at Fu Hua's posture, he knew that he had just been kicked in the chin by Fu Hua.

"Thank you for the information, but it's time to say goodbye!" After Fu Hua landed from a backflip, she immediately crouched and charged forward a step, then punched the man in the stomach.

The man, due to this blow, clutched his stomach and knelt on the ground, mumbling something incomprehensible.

Fu Hua directly kicked the man unconscious, then took off his jacket.

Looking at the robots that had moved to the man's side and restrained him.

"Aili, you're controlling these robots, aren't you?" Fu Hua asked Aili through the communication device.

"Of course! But regarding the gem's information, I've also searched through the underground surveillance," Aili said, looking at the surveillance of the underground vault, then sighed.

"I've found the location, but it seems the person behind this has discovered that I'm controlling their robots," Aili said to Fu Hua, looking at the fully armed people in the surveillance footage.

"It's fine, as long as we know the location. I'll go down to find you now; you handle things here," Fu Hua reached out, placed her hand on the doorknob, and opened the door.

Outside the door, several armed bodyguards had appeared.

"It's her! Shoot!" The leading bodyguard was the one who had pulled out a gun on Fu Hua as soon as she went upstairs.

This time, he directly fired at Fu Hua without any hesitation.

They already knew that someone had infiltrated their communication devices, and even their combat robots had been infiltrated, so they could only use the weapons in their hands to attack.

"Aili, watch Kiana. I'll escape from another place," Fu Hua said, returning to the room.

Then, she directly broke through the glass and jumped down from the 36th floor.

"Hua, you're really adventurous," Aili said with a sigh, watching Fu Hua jump from the building through the robots' perspective.

"It's fine. Someone should also go to your side. After all, there are traps upstairs, and there will be some on your side too," Fu Hua adjusted her posture in the air, and as she was about to land, her hair color changed slightly.

But after landing on the ground, no change was visible.

"Hmm, those people upstairs, just leave them there," Aili said, and the robots controlled by Aili on the 36th floor exploded.

High-voltage electrical arcs spread across the 36th floor, electrocuting anyone they touched.

The so-called First Herrscher, who was closer to the robots, woke up before the robots exploded and timely used a shield to block the close-range robot explosion.

"He really is lucky," Aili muttered softly.

"Hua, that First Herrscher wasn't blown to death," Aili reminded Fu Hua through the communication, then turned and walked towards Kiana.

As the explosion occurred, Kiana also turned to look at Aili, and at the same time said to the old man behind her, "Grandpa, you should leave here quickly, it's dangerous."

But the old man she spoke of pulled out a syringe and jabbed it towards Kiana.

Aili quickly moved to Kiana's side and grabbed the old man's wrist.

"Maji, this reagent is a bit dangerous, we can't let it be injected into my sister," Aili said with a smile, while using her other hand to take the syringe from Maji's hand.

"Grandpa, you…" Kiana also looked at Maji with an incredulous gaze.

"It seems Otto really thinks highly of me," Maji said with a bitter smile, "To send so many people to capture me."

"After all, the things you took, Maji, are very dangerous."

Aili directly used a hand chop to knock Maji unconscious, then draped Maji's arm over her neck.

"Let's go, Kiana, back to our room."

Saying that, Aili walked outside, encountering no bodyguards along the way, and quickly arrived at their room.

After placing Maji on her bed, Aili looked at the disheartened Kiana beside her.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling bad?" Aili poured a glass of plain water and handed it to Kiana.

"Yeah, this grandpa doesn't seem like a bad person at all," Kiana said sadly.

"Grandpa told me some stories…"

Aili stroked Kiana's head, "Maji might have his difficulties, but he brought out some things he shouldn't have."

"However, he is still very admirable." Handing the syringe she took from Maji's hand to Kiana, "This syringe can neutralize Honkai Energy. If you had been injected with it just now, you would slowly lose your power."

"Neutralize Honkai Energy? Can't this be used to fight Honkai?" Kiana asked, looking up.

"Yes, that's why everyone has their difficulties," Aili also knew Maji's difficulties through the information.

That's why she didn't directly take Maji away from here.

"Kiana, Maji is entrusted to you, okay? I'm going to meet up with Hua first," Aili said, walking to the door.

Then she opened the door and walked out.

Leaving only Kiana looking at the syringe in her hand and Maji lying beside her.
