Thirteen minutes after Himeko and the others dived under the surface of the sea.

In a certain room on the yacht, 9S is sitting on a chair bored, more than a dozen Destiny staff are sitting in front of the computer screen around him and working seriously, and in the center of the room, a virtual screen projected by the projection equipment is showing the picture transmitted by the camera installed on the submersible.

However, so far, Himeko and the others have not encountered any trouble, because the people of Destiny have only guessed the approximate extent of Chiyou's sealed place, so the only images displayed are sea creatures and countless plankton swimming in front of the camera from time to time.

"Sir, Honkai Energy Reaction Detected!"

Suddenly, one of the staff members turned his head and reported to 9S with an anxious expression.

"Oh? Honkai can react, it looks like we've found Chiyou. ”

9S, who heard the staff's report, finally cheered up, and the body that stayed on the Moonlight Throne also put down the gamepad in his hand and shifted all his attention to the stand-in.

"Is it Honkaimon?"

Seeing the dozen or so Honkai energy reactions displayed on the virtual screen, 9S asked the staff.

"Yes, sir, these dozen Honkai beasts are rushing towards Miss Himeko and the others."

The staff nodded in response.

"Didn't you find it yet?"

The 9S was a little disappointed.

"But I should find it soon, otherwise where did the Honkai beasts come from in this place, activate the weapon system of the submersible, and destroy these Honkai beasts."

"Yes, sir."

The staff nodded, then turned back to the screen and contacted Himeko and the others underwater.

"Himeko-san, please answer when you hear it."

"I heard it, what's going on, why did the submersible suddenly stop?"

Himeko's voice full of doubts rang out in the room.

"We have found a group of Honkai Beasts rushing towards you, Miss Himeko, please let go of the submersible, we will activate the weapon system on the submersible to destroy the Honkai Beasts."

"Oh, got it."

Himeko nodded, immediately let go of her right hand gripping the submersible, and then swam some distance behind, followed by a few other people.

"Have you all let go?"

"Hmm." x3

"It's alright, Miss Himeko."

"Okay, you can get started."

"Understood, Himeko-san."

The staff immediately motioned to the submersible pilot sitting next to him to hand over control to himself, and after getting the control, the submersible turned slowly to the right under the onlookers of Himeko and others, while the head tilted slightly downward, the bottom opened to both sides, and three thick and long metal barrels descended from the body of the submersible, and after locking the group of Honkai beasts, the staff immediately pressed the launch button of the weapon system.

A second later, three miniature torpedoes erupted from the muzzle of the black hole, rushing forward at a speed of 100 knots, and soon disappeared into Himeko's visible range.

About five seconds later, the torpedo successfully hit the group of Honkai Beasts, and Himeko and the others who stayed next to the submersible only saw the fleeting light in the distance and the faint tremor that followed, and then the voices of the staff rang in the ears of the five people.

"Miss Himeko, the reaction of the Honkai Beasts is gone, and you can move on, in the direction where the group of Honkai Beasts are, they may have come from Chiyou's location."

"Understood."

Himeko regained her grip on the metal handle on the submersible, and after everyone had held on to it, the crew returned control to the submersible pilot, who immediately controlled the submersible in the direction his colleague had said.

"Didi~"

9S, who was about to turn his attention back to his main body, suddenly sounded in his head.

"Huh? It's coming. ”

9S muttered to himself, then stood up and walked towards the exit of the room.

"I'll go out and deal with some things, and if something unexpected happens, you can handle it yourself."

"Understood, sir."

Walking out of the room, the two guards standing at the door saw that it was 9S who came out and immediately saluted, but 9S ignored the two and kept walking towards the stern......

On the sea not far from the yacht -

"That guy, when I see him, Uncle Ben must make him look good."

Wearing a white men's dress, a delicate young man with short purple and white hair, well, that is, the inverse entropy of Xing Mar, who has not appeared for a long time, spat viciously on the sea next to him, that guy, what did he say to quietly solve all the people on the ship's destiny, and then prepared a pedal boat for her, and it was a white swan style, this color is very conspicuous at night, okay.

"I'm going to look good when I go back."

Xing viciously shattered the chant, and at the same time pressed the pedal harder, so that the speed of the white swan increased a little bit.

A few minutes later, looking at the yacht close at hand, Xing stopped her somewhat sore legs, and she couldn't go any further here, otherwise she might be spotted by the guards on the yacht who were patrolling.

Apricot felt the direction of the sea breeze, and then drove the boat directly behind the yacht to prevent the boat from being blown to the side of the yacht by the sea breeze.

"Poof."

Xing jumped into the sea, the icy water made her angry brain a little clearer, and then the whole person dived under the surface, her legs swinging rapidly, like a swordfish rushing towards the yacht.

"Smack."

Half a minute later, at the stern of the yacht, a small white hand suddenly stretched out from under the surface of the sea and pressed it on the aft deck.

"Welcome aboard, Miss Apricot."

9S, who had been waiting here for a long time, immediately grabbed this hand, and then pulled out the apricot under the sea, and raised the right hand holding the apricot above his head, 9S stared at her pair of gray and gold heterochromatic eyes and said with a smile.

“…… What the hell are you? ”

The caught apricot didn't have the consciousness of being caught at all, but stared at 9S with a strange expression and asked, because she didn't want to recall the past, she awakened a special ability, that is, she could see the evil inside through the appearance of things, in her eyes, the greedy person would become a twisted banknote, and the gluttonous person was a greedy mouth, full of disgusting ugliness, just like the demon extending from the seven deadly sins.

But the 9S in front of her?

Nothing, no evil, no distortion in appearance, just like those mecha in the reverse entropy, but the 9S in front of her is a living person, she has experienced countless tasks, and if she can't even tell the difference between the dead and the living, she would have died a long time ago, so she asked 9S this question when she was caught.

"Who knows."

9S, who had read Apricot Mar's file, naturally knew why she asked that, but he was not interested in being a commentator, so he directly pulled up the chain that had been prepared on the side, trying to tie her up before Apricot could remember to struggle.

"You still want to tie up Uncle Ben?!"

Xing, who finally reacted, suddenly laughed, revealing a strange smile at the corner of her cracked mouth, Xing pressed her left hand that was not caught on 9S's shoulder, and the right hand that was caught grabbed grabbed 9S's left hand, and her whole body was jerked up, and her right knee slammed into 9S's chin.

However, although 9S reacted a beat slower because it was a human stand-in, he didn't panic at all, pressed his right hand on Xing's waist, twisted and fell hard, and threw Xing directly on the deck behind him.

"Smack~!"

As Xing's back made close contact with the deck of the yacht, 9S decisively went up to mend the knife, held it tightly with his left hand, calculated the strength needed, and then smashed directly on Xing's temple.

"Alright, that's it."

Looking at Xing, who had passed out in a coma, 9S wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, but fortunately, his appearance was very deceptive, so that Xing did not use all his strength at the beginning.

On the data of inverse entropy,In addition to seeing sin, Xing also has the ability to manipulate time,Although the scope of this ability is very small,At most, it can only control the time of a distance of about one centimeter above the epidermis,But even if you only manipulate your own time,It's almost the same as the [overclocking] that 9S has,Or even more powerful,And the body of 9S is still on the Moonlight Throne,Human stand-ins have no way to use [overclocking].

So if you don't solve the apricot in the first place, then everyone on this yacht will have to die tonight.

"Really, there's no place to hold people on this ship."

While skillfully tying up the apricot with iron chains, 9S complained that this yacht is not small, it is not big, at least there is no place dedicated to detaining people, and the staff of Destiny did not expect that this operation could actually catch a person with reverse entropy, so 9S could only choose to take care of her in person.
