Being able to hold an S-Rank Valkyrie in his arms is the greatest reward for any member of Schicksal
Therefore, when the news that "some lucky bastard" managed to hold Lord Durandal in his arms and was not slapped away by her, Gao Qi was destined to become the public enemy of the Valkyries.
Of course, at least the girls of Immortal Blade were conquered by Gao Qi's good craftsmanship.
However, no one would have thought that within a few days, this lucky bastard would once again hold another S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal in his arms, and run fast in the alleys of Arc City.
Fortunately, a little fan girl of Otto, the third S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, is still placed in the freezer by Otto currently, and there is still some time before being awakened, otherwise, Gao Qi thought, maybe he can hold them all.
"Hu-ha, ha."
Holding Rita in his arms, Gao Qi took big steps and fled into the deep alley like he was flying.
His breathing was a little short, and he was sweating profusely, looking extremely tired.
There is no other reason. When fleeing with Rita, Gao Qi did not use his MANTIS power, but only relied on his original physical fitness and some damaged exoskeleton armor to escape.
However, it stands to reason that with Gao Qi's strong body who still hasn't stopped exercising, he would make any effort to run with a girl in his arms, but the problem is that there are a group of Honkai beasts chasing them behind, as well as......
"I didn't intend to tease you on purpose, Vice-Captain Rita, the gravitational force between you and the earth... isn't it a bit strong?"
Holding Rita's slender back with one hand, and Rita's soft thigh with the other hand, Gao Qi has to admit that this young lady's body feels great to the touch, and her skin is extraordinarily smooth, almost comparable to Mobius.
Rita's figure is slender and plump, and she belongs to the kind of good figure that can only be found in a 2d character. She only grows flesh where there should be flesh, and it is only a little over a hundred catties by visual inspection.
However, the heaviness that came from her body far exceeded the weight that a woman of this size should have.
Two hundred catties? No, I'm afraid there is more! If it wasn't for the exoskeleton supporting him, Gao Qi wouldn't be able to pick her up without using his MANTIS power. In fact, Gao Qi's battlesuit had malfunctioned the moment he caught Rita.
How should I put it, although Gao Qi likes beautiful girls, compared to mental happiness, physical oppression is more unbearable--he can't stand it in every sense! If she gets married in the future, someone's pelvis will probably be cracked.
Of course, it's just a saying, he didn't want to cheat, not at all!
"This, this is a sign that the Soulium has temporarily lost its activity! Mr. Gao Qi, the enemy's special weapons have temporarily isolated my soulium from the Honkai energy generator. Usually, this battlesuit is very light—and, please don't discuss a lady's weight! That's rude!"
Hugged by Gao Qi, Rita hugged Gao Qi's neck tightly, feeling a little helpless, this kind of intimate contact made her quite embarrassed, but she really couldn't move now.
The function of the Third Divine Key is similar to the Authority mastered by the Third Herrscher, both of which can disintegrate the electromagnetic interaction between particles and achieve the effect of decomposing matter.
Even though the strength of the Fourth-Generation Battlesuit is already very high, in the face of multiple shots from the Third Divine Key, the Artemis Battlesuit is still temporarily suspended. The Soulium in it is of terrible quality when it is not charged.
"As long as you wait a little longer, the generator can be restarted, but I'm afraid I won't be able to move for the time being--I'm sorry, Mr. Gao Qi, for letting you see this embarrassed side of me."
Her pretty face couldn't help turning slightly red, and her wine-red eyes wavered slightly. Rita had always been elegant but now showed a little shyness and panic, which was rare.
Rita has always been strict with herself, making herself a qualified maid, to be precise, a watchman.
To do this, she must maintain elegance and chic, always perfect, and this state makes her very happy.
But now, she also understands that her appearance is definitely not elegant, and even a little embarrassed.
This embarrassing side was seen by everyone, which really made Rita feel very embarrassed.
For this, Gao Qi just shook his head with a smile.
"Don't worry, about your embarrassment Miss Rita, I once knew a maid. Although I have lived for by myself more than ten years, I didn't know how to wash different colors of clothes separately. I often confuse salt and sugar when cooking. and when a kid cries I am at a loss for what to do, and she has to help me personally every time... I think it's very cool that you're sacrificing your appearance for the mission~~"
Looking at Rita in his arms, Gao Qi thought of another maid who had just left - Raven.
The maid, Miss Natasha, is a fierce person who can take out an RPG from under her maid skirt. Compared to her, Miss Rita is much more professional.
"Miss Rita, do you know a certain attribute called 'contrast cuteness', the lady maid who has always been capable and restrained, occasionally shows a clumsy side, isn't it cute?"
As he said that, Gao Qi took out a string of energy-absorbing grenades directly from his waist. This thing can not only be used in civil wars but can also directly make Honkai Beasts lie down.
"It seems that there is no way out. This is my last grenade, Miss Rita."
However, before Gao Qi could throw the grenade, Rita's little hand, wearing the heavy Valkyrie Battlesuit, gently stroked Gao Qi's face.
"Huh, then I'll take it as you are praising me, Mr. Gao Qi, I have regained a little bit of strength, come on, take a deep breath, slow down your heartbeat, and I will hide the traces of the two of us."
However, when Rita reached out to touch it, Gao Qi almost staggered and fell down. Not only did his heart beat faster, but his old face also turned red.
"Well, Miss Rita, although you are adorable, yes, I have a sweetheart, don't take this opportunity to mess around, the suspension bridge effect is so serious, I'm afraid I can't help but fall in love with you—I I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't be talkative!"
Before Gao Qi finished speaking, Rita raised her eyebrows slightly, stretched out her jade fingers, and pinched Gao Qi's nose fiercely.
"I don't have time to talk to you, hold your breath, imagine yourself diving, three, two, one."
In the next second, accompanied by Rita's whisper, Gao Qi took a deep breath, as if diving into the deep sea.
Rumble———
Accompanied by the sound of heavy horseshoes trampling, several Templar-Class Honkai Beasts, accompanied by several mosquito-like Seraph-Class Honkai Beasts, ran into the distance, and soon, in the dense forest by the roadside, a man with Rita in his arms Gao Qi, got out from the shadows.
"Let them leave like this, maybe it will hurt the citizens, I can only hope that everyone obeys the curfew- though this power is really strange."
Although Rita couldn't activate the Battlesuit for the time being, she used her strange power to blend the two of them into the shadows, eliminating all traces of the outside—as if they were covered by holding their breath.
Gao Qi knows that this is Rita's particular skill. Although it is not a Stigmata, it is also a talent engraved in the genes. Raven's ability to perceive Honkai Energy was similar to Rita's. Many people in this world are born with this special function.
"Let's take a break for a while, my Battlesuit will recover after a while—please, please put me down."
Finally, the surrounding Honkai Stampede disappeared, and Rita breathed a sigh of relief, but then found that Gao Qi still hugged her with even tighter strength, and her slender hand was gently pinched on his nose, seems rather ambiguous.
"OK, OK, be careful."
Gao Qi shrugged, and gently put Rita on the ground. In fact, as long as Gao Qi is willing, those Honkai beasts are definitely not opponents of MANTIS'.
But... once his strength is exposed, Gao Qi can't stay in Schicksal any longer, he quite likes it here.
Of course, if Rita is really in danger, then Gao Qi will have to release his real power, and at that time, Rita can only make an apology to Bianca.
"Uh-hiss."
However, after Rita's battlesuit-wrapped feet lightly stepped on the ground, she, who has always been strong, couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.
"Don't move, I'll put you down slowly."
Gao Qi's expression became serious all of a sudden. He gently picked up Rita and placed her on a bench in the woodland path, then reached out and patted her calf.
"Take it off."
"Hey, wait-oh."
For a moment, Rita thought wrongly, but soon, she understood what Gao Qi meant, and lightly pressed on her thigh, and the leg armor was taken off immediately. It looked thin, but in fact, it was extremely heavy.
A pair of snow-white jade feet and slender thighs first caught Gao Qi's eyes, and soon, Rita's swollen ankle made Gao Qi frown.
With Honkai charged Battlesuit, these materials are as light as silk stocking boots, and there is no discomfort in wearing them, but after being shot by Seven Thunders of Retribution, Rita is almost wearing heavy plate armor to fight.
Even if her physical fitness is beyond ordinary, it is inevitable that her ankle will be sprained in the fierce battle, but she can overcome it with adrenaline and painkiller injections.
Now, Rita, who had calmed down, finally felt the pain.
"Mr. Gao Qi, don't, don't touch it! Don't touch it, you're not allowed there!"
Afterward, Rita saw in a panic that Gao Qi gently held her feet in his hands, and couldn't help struggling slightly.
"Don't move around, if you move again, I'll lick it clean for you! I'll really lick it!"
But this time, Gao Qi no longer had a playful smile on his face, but gave Rita a serious look, and stuck out his tongue as if—the beautiful girl's feet are fragrant and tender, Gao Qi is not joking, he would really do it!
Although Mobius wouldn't let him do that.
"Hmm...please go ahead."
Seeing Gao Qi's earnest, even greedy gaze, Rita hesitated. She felt that Gao Qi might really dare to do this, so she immediately calmed down and didn't dare to continue to move around.
As for Gao Qi, he directly took out the medicines he carried with him from his satchel, applied the medicines and cold compresses in one go, and wrapped them with special protective bandages from the soles of her feet to avoid further sprains. The variety of medicines he carried in his backpack made even Rita, a maid felt a little ashamed of herself.
There is no way, compared to the experience of raising children, Rita is far behind him. Not to mention others, Little Hua has suffered many injuries from practicing martial arts since she was a child, and Gao Qi helped her deal with them at home.
Soon, Rita's sprain was healed. Rita couldn't help twisting her wrapped jade feet twice, rubbed her toes lightly twice, feeling a little uncomfortable, and bit her white teeth lightly. The lips even looked a little twisted.
After all, she was the one who took care of Bianka in the past, but now being taken care of by others... There is an indescribable feeling.
Seeing her awkward look, Gao Qi couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, as if thinking of some trick.
"How about it, are you still satisfied with my service, Rita—Master?!"
Then, he bent down earnestly, bowed to Rita, and called Rita his master with his professional smile as a housekeeper when facing Mobius.
Mobius likes to play this kind of play with him secretly, and Klein can't even watch it casually!
And as soon as these words came out, Rita's face turned red to the bottom of her ears in an instant—she often used these words to tease Bianka and even other Valkyries when she was working as a maid, but this was her first time. Once it was called that in reverse.
"No, no, Mr. Gao Qi, don't call me that, I, I'm just a maid, no, no, we are colleagues!"
Rita finally understood how embarrassing and entangled it would be for the people she teased.
Now she no longer sees her calm appearance before, but that shy expression made Gao Qi happy.
"Okay, okay, I'm not kidding anymore, seeing Miss Rita as cute as you, I can fight with peace of mind."
He took out two Honkai weapons from his waist, and Gao Qi had already felt that a large number of Honkai beasts were gathering near the two of them.
Rita's concealing ability can only work for a while after all, her Battlesuit is now filled with the energy of the Divine Key, and the high concentration of Honkai energy will lead the Honkai beast here in an endless stream.
Knowing this already, Gao Qi planned to tease Rita, after all. If I really use the power of my MANTIS, I can't stay in Schicksal.
Next, where should I go - why not vote for Anti-Entropy?
Soon, Honkai Beasts approached the two of them from all around, accompanied by lavender flashes.
"Wait, Mr. Gao Qi, reinforcements will arrive soon, don't go! No - I will go too!"
However, just when Rita was about to dissuade Gao Qi and fight side by side with him, suddenly, a very familiar voice rang out in their ears.
"Take this ah ah ah ah!!!"
Several laser beams flashed, shooting the leading Honkai Beasts on the spot, and then, a white spear flew over, piercing a Honkai Beast in front of it.
In the next second, a vigorous girl with long white hair in a black and white uniform landed in front of the two of them with two guns in hand.
"Don't you know that there is a curfew in Arc City? What are you two young lovers doing out here? Are adults so annoying? Hurry up and go to a safe place...Huh?"
Turning around, the girl with one blue and one golden eye looked at the acquaintance in front of her in surprise.
"Rita! You bastard!"
Gao Qi and Rita also shouted out in surprise.
"Kiana?!"
