"Ok?"
Kiana suddenly stopped and looked around. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she sensed some special Honkai energy fluctuations. But when she carefully sensed it, she didn't notice anything.
This is the interior of an abandoned urban area. There is not even a trace of dead soldiers nearby, and collapsed ice cones can be seen everywhere.
The intelligent Void Manzang was startled by Kiana's sharpness, and immediately cut off all connections, quietly acting as a decoration.
Kiana, who didn't notice anything, could only temporarily focus her attention on the surrounding environment. She pressed her hand on the ice cone and applied light force. Cracks appeared on the ice cone and then shattered with a loud bang.
"The ice created by the Herrscher cannot be so fragile. Is it because of the influence of the Staff of the Underworld?"
As they continued to go deeper into the city, the number of broken ice cones increased, almost blocking the entire street. Seeing such dense destruction, Kiana knew that she had finally found the right path.
But before we could continue exploring further, we vaguely heard a sound coming from the end of the city passage.
"It seems to be a male, is there a survivor?" Kiana's expression changed slightly, and she immediately quickened her pace and rushed towards the direction where the voice came from.
The buildings on both sides of the street became increasingly crowded, leaving only narrow gaps. Kiana passed through the ice wall and saw a man in a pool of blood.
Chen Tianwu, who had lost an arm, knelt in the broken blood-red crystal flowers, like a corpse that had died long ago, but the surrounding space was so quiet that Kiana could hear the faint whisper.
"Anna."
"Sure enough, there are survivors. Don't move, I will save you right away." Kiana was shocked and quickly prepared to save people.
However, she did not notice that Chen Tianwu's condition was very abnormal at this time.
Massive amounts of Honkai energy continued to gather, pouring into the city from all directions like a wave. In just a moment, the surrounding buildings were torn apart by horrific cracks, and criss-crossing gullies stretched out endlessly. Both the ice and the ruins were collapsing.
Kiana, who was eager to save people, failed to avoid the impact and was buried by the collapsed floors around her in an instant.
Click.
The innocent street lamp was twisted and deformed in Su Jue's hands. Su Jue, who had been observing the situation, became disordered when he saw Kiana being buried. He lost control of his strength and twisted the iron lamp pole into a twist.
However, although he was worried, Su Jue did not lose his mind and did not approach rashly.
This level of damage does not pose a threat to Kiana. Instead, the time crystal in her body is of utmost importance and no mistakes can be made.
"Chen Tianwu's legalization has just begun, so it's not the time to take action yet."
Two seconds later, a black cat with white claws jumped out of the space channel and ran towards the ruins on the snow.
……
Coral Island is an artificial island with limited Honkai energy. After the birth of Anna, the Herrscher, the remaining Honkai energy is not enough to quickly give birth to a Herrscher, so it will still take some time for Chen Tianwu to become a Herrscher.
This period of time was the time for the residents of Coral Island to evacuate. Fortunately, the Snow Lotus team rescued by Kiana did not choose to escape, but instead tried their best to help ordinary people resist the threat of the Herrscher Honkai Beast, which greatly reduced the casualties of the people.
However, the Snow Lotus Team is only an A-level team, and a single team would not be able to stop such a large-scale collapse.
"Deputy Captain, what should we do? Or should we retreat?"
Almost all members of the team were injured and their conditions had reached their limit. The deputy captain who temporarily served as the commander looked at the Honkai beasts that continued to pour in, and deep despair emerged in his heart.
"No, there are tens of thousands of civilians behind us. If we lose the defense, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"But we really can't hold on any longer." One of the Valkyries covered her shoulder, her arm twisted unnaturally, obviously broken in the battle.
The deputy captain wanted to say something, but when she turned around, she saw a group of girls covered in bruises. The youngest of them was only fourteen years old, and her face was already covered with tears.
She fell silent for a moment. She knew that they were just a drop in the bucket and could not stop the spread of the collapse.
His heart softened, and he nodded helplessly, "Then retreat, you and the civilians retreat together, and contact Tianming as soon as it is safe."
"What about you, Vice Captain?"
"Captain Anna once said that the duty of a Valkyrie is to abide by the oath she swore and protect her companions. Now that Captain Anna is gone, it is my turn to protect you."
The deputy captain shook his head slightly, facing the cold storm and venting the anger of the weapon in his hand towards the Honkai beast.
The girls looked at each other, and in the end no one chose to leave.
However, Honkai can't be fought with just faith. The team's firepower is simply unable to stop the Honkai beast's advance. Facing a Honkai beast that's over ten meters tall, deep despair is imprinted in their hearts.
"Damn Honkai!" Guns, close combat, the Valkyrie closed her eyes, only wishing to kill more Honkai beasts before she died.
But after waiting for a long time, the expected pain never came.
When they opened their eyes, they found that the terrifying Honkai beasts were being slaughtered one-sidedly. The vice-captain's eyes widened and he immediately thought of Kiana who had saved them before.
But this time it was not Kiana, but a red-haired woman who was wielding a burning sword with both hands, constantly shuttling between the groups of Honkai beasts.
Only when the number of people decreased visibly did the woman put away her weapon and walked up to the men.
"If I remember correctly, the Valkyrie Manual states that you can evacuate. Okay, now leave this to us, you guys evacuate quickly."
Wuliangta Jizi tugged at her apron. She was just doing housework in Tianqiong City, but she didn't expect to be dragged to such a place by Su Jue to fight in the blink of an eye.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
"Qian Jue."
The deputy captain was somewhat confused, as she had never heard of a Valkyrie team with the code name Qian Jue in the Tianming team. However, she had seen Ji Zi's combat power, so she could only regard Qian Jue as a special forces team.
Just like the Immortal Blade led by Yulandel, a team that exists in legends.
"Then I'll leave this to you."
The seriously injured Xuelian team quickly evacuated, and the battlefield was quickly taken over by Su Jue's puppets. The Qian Jue puppet and the Gray Xiu puppet, which had not appeared for a long time, were both extremely powerful. With Su Jue's amplification, their strength was basically close to S-level.
For a team composed of S, not to mention the Honkai Impact caused by the Herrscher, even the Herrscher itself is enough to be taken down.
The tide of Honkai beasts was stopped, the Herrscher of Ice was sealed, and even the imaginary space was entangled by layers of silk threads controlled by Su Jue.
Now the only Herrscher who can turn the situation around is Chen Tianwu.
Unconsciously, the concentration of Honkai energy on the coral island began to rise rapidly, and the Honkai energy that was originally insufficient to support the two Herrschers was now enriched in large quantities.
Su Jue, who had been waiting for a long time, knew that the Will of Honkai had finally come to an end.
320 Star Law
The Will of Honkai is by no means a high and mighty god. It also has its own thinking and judgment. Although Su Jue is not sure whether the other party will be angry, there is no doubt that his behavior will definitely touch the bottom line of Honkai.
Promoting the birth of Rock Law ahead of time is Su Jue's test of Honkai's will. If "He" remains indifferent, then Su Jue will take the initiative and take over the remaining Herrschers step by step, turning the apostles of God into pawns on his chessboard.
It was obvious that the Honkai Will also noticed this. After sensing the influence of Su Jue and Chen Tianwu, it directly cut off the connection with Qian Jue's Mark.
A huge amount of Honkai energy surged out from the imaginary space. These energies that appeared out of thin air filled the gap in the birth of Rock Law. In just a few minutes, a dark brown Herrscher core was condensed.
Of course, this is just Su Jue's perspective. This kind of energy-level storm cannot be distinguished by the naked eye. People only see the silent coral island and are not even aware of the birth of the second Herrscher.
……
The frozen abandoned city was buried by collapsed buildings. Fluttering snowflakes fell from the sky, covering the ruins with white snow.
The black cat's white claws treaded on the snow as it moved quickly through the ruins, its golden eyes constantly scanning the wreckage beneath its feet, searching for Kiana's location.
The next second, everyone, whether walking on the snow or evacuating residents hundreds of kilometers away, felt a surge of uneasiness in their hearts.
Among the retreating people, some stopped and turned their heads to look at the treetops covered with rime.
The branches were shaking slightly, and the ice and snow falling on them kept falling and shattered into ice crystal flowers.
"The coral island... is shaking?" People murmured to themselves as they watched this unusual change.
Soon, as if in response to these words, the ground began to move more and more violently, and the snow on the treetops fell down like a rolling avalanche.
"It's an earthquake." The deputy captain of the Snow Lotus Team changed his expression and immediately led the team members to adjust the retreat route in advance.
The tremors became more and more intense, so much so that the galactic ladder leading to the starry sky also let out a painful wail.
As the center of the earthquake, the shaking was even stronger in the ruins, where collapsed steel bars and concrete were everywhere.
With the cat's balance, he stepped on the snow and jumped down the ruins steadily. But before he landed, a terrifying crack instantly tore through the ruins and swallowed up his foothold.
At the bottom of the ruins, Chen Tianwu, who had transformed into a Herrscher, slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
"An..." Before he could call out the name, the Will of Honkai overwhelmed him with a massive amount of chaos.
The newly born Herrscher struggled instinctively, and the cement that trapped him was crushed unhindered by the power of gravity, turning into dust.
Chen Tianwu, who had regained his freedom, stood up, and the debris around him seemed to be carried away by an invisible force, floating up one after another.
From scattered rubble to hundreds of tons of reinforced concrete, everything turned into miniature meteorite-like debris, constantly rotating around the Herrscher like a nebula.
Compared with the Herrscher of Rock of the previous civilization, it is obvious that the title of Herrscher of Stars is more suitable for Chen Tianwu today.
Xinglu slowly raised his hand, and the gathered luck, driven by gravity, fell into it from bottom to top.
In an instant, the entire coral island felt a strong tremor, and dense cracks spread out from the abandoned city, tearing the island apart like a spider web.
People who fell to the ground due to the earthquake in the distance looked in the direction of the abandoned city, only to see the shadow of the city being erased step by step.
"Kiana!"
A hint of nervousness flashed in the eyes of Su Jue, the cat who had just landed on the ground. Countless silk threads intertwined into a dense isolation net, forcibly constructing a safe area.
Just like an erupting volcano, the flying debris splashed towards the entire island. Only the area separated by Su Jue was completely blocked by the light curtain.
The cat Su Jue heaved a sigh of relief only after the explosion ended. He looked at the almost flattened city area, stretched out his claws and kept digging at the ground, trying to rescue Kiana from the ruins as soon as possible.
However, just as he was digging for a long time and getting more and more anxious, a flash of fire accidentally caught his sight. He followed the light and saw Kiana holding a big sword and killing a Honkai beast cleanly.
The action of digging the ground froze in place, and the beard that stepped on the snow trembled unconsciously.
It turned out that he was so nervous for such a long time, but Kiana had actually escaped from the ruins a long time ago, and might not even have been buried at all.
Su Jue, who was staying on the outskirts of the island, twitched his mouth and silently recalled Taxue back to the control space.
Fortunately, no one knew about this unexpected episode. Since Kiana was fine, Su Jue had to focus his attention on Xinglu again.
The ruins that buried Chen Tianwu couldn't even block it. After being easily destroyed, Xinglu slowly flew into the air.
Looking down at the earth from the sky, there is only pure desire for destruction in Xinglu's eyes. With the help of the will of collapse, Xinglu grows very fast. Even if Chen Tianwu himself is not strong, he can execute destructive commands through the consciousness of the Herrscher.
But like Anna, Chen Tianwu's consciousness did not disappear directly. It was just that the despair brought by killing Anna completely wiped out his will to live. He just watched everything numbly and let the will of collapse drive his body.
Staring at the island, Xing Lu raised his hand, and a black sphere condensed in his hand. Of course, this was not a sphere, but a miniature black hole, which only looked pure black because the light was distorted.
The reversed gravity attracted the debris of the earth, forming a more extensive nebula, and even the blizzard created by the Ice Herrscher was absorbed by it.
The core of a black hole does not consume matter, but condenses it into an extremely high-density aggregate.
"The Herrscher is creating the stars."
Whether it was steel or ice, all became part of the core of the nebula. There was no doubt that what the Herrscher wanted to create was a comet.
A comet with a diameter of several hundred meters is enough to destroy a large city, but the Will of Honkai is obviously not satisfied. Even after creating the nebula, there is no sign of stopping. At this rate, the entire coral island will disappear in less than half an hour, and the millions of people waiting for rescue can only sink into the deep sea with the island.
Of course, it was an old tradition for the Herrscher to destroy the city, and Su Jue was not surprised at all. If the Honkai Will did not cause trouble, it would be something he should be worried about.
I calculated the time silently in my mind, and soon, a dazzling light flashed like a thin line in the constantly swirling nebula.
There was a flash of light, followed by a burning flame.
No matter how strong your new Herrscher is, you must first pass the Herrscher of the Void.
In addition to Kiana joining the battlefield, Anna, who was sealed in a birdcage by Su Jue, also slowly opened her eyes.
321 Starburst
The high-temperature flames flowed around like liquid, and even the air was burning and crackling, but Kiana only felt a gentle warmth.
The burning and stinging pain from when she forcibly used the Firewood Flame in Sky City still lingered in her mind, but now this power was like a well-behaved cat, lying quietly on her shoulder.
"Is this the power of the firewood flame? It's amazing." With some sighs in her heart, Kiana withdrew her thoughts, holding the big sword in her hand, and looked at the nebula in the sky.
The black hole created by Xing Lu changed the gravity of the Coral Island. In particular, the Will of Collapse provided a considerable amount of Collapse energy in order to cut off Su Jue's interference. Therefore, except for the other two small island bases, the entire main island was within the range of the black hole.
Cars parked on the roadside slowly rose, trees rooted in the ground were uprooted, the supports of street lights and billboards broke with a harsh twisting sound, and even the sea water formed tides under the reversed gravity.
Everything was sucked into the black hole created by the Star Law and eventually became part of the comet.
Although Kiana is still confused until now, now that a new Herrscher has been born and is wreaking havoc on the island, she can't just sit there and watch.
Kiana gently jumped onto the floating car, and with a strong kick, she soared into the sky. Relying on the floating debris, her speed increased, like a burning meteor falling towards the nebula.
The space around the Star Law becomes distorted due to the gravity of the black hole, forming a natural isolation barrier. All attacks will be offset by this distortion and will not be able to harm the Herrscher.
But this is not a problem for Kiana. She is the real Queen of the Sky, and the distorted field formed by the black hole is only a slight obstacle to her.
"Is the Herrscher this time a cadre of the World Serpent?" Taking advantage of the opportunity when Star Law was concentrating on controlling the nebula, Kiana quickly closed the distance between the two. The burning flames left a thin line behind her, as if splitting the nebula into two halves.
