Chapter 72: Page 72

"have you had enough?"

His tone remained calm, and the originally distorted words became clear at this moment, as if he was no longer affected by the disordered icons.

The water was spreading silently. The accumulated water on the ground had unknowingly reached above the ankles, and the surroundings became increasingly humid.

tick-

The rain gently fell on its stiff, twisted and weird body, and the body made up of electronic devices began to inexplicably... produce some electric arcs indicating damage.

Ha...isn't it natural that electrical appliances will short-circuit and become damaged when soaked in water?

「Ah…ah…how…is it possible…」

This time, its speech became a little strange, intermittent, as if the vocal part was damaged.

Looking at him, you will find that the chaotic icons covering his body are slowly fading and gradually turning into "wounds" on his body. Dark blue "blood" silently flows from the wounds and drips into the puddles on the ground. Then slowly, even the remaining "wounds" disappear... He has already "adapted" to everything around him.

[What a joke… What a joke!!!]

It roared and was angry. It was obviously the strongest being here. In this data space, as the [Rule of Corrosion], it could even be said to be a "God". No one could be higher than it.

All the powers belonging to [Erosion] were released, and everything in the data space fell into chaos. Countless disordered icons appeared and a large amount of data errors were reported.

But...among them all, only the blue water remained unchanged.

But it can no longer take care of that much.

[You... You!!! You are just like us! You are all Herrschers! Why are you still pointing your sword at me?! Human! Humans are the ones who deceived you! Humans are the ones who hurt you! Why are you still standing by them?!]

Redundant and disordered data piled up together, blending with the power of [Erosion], and turned into countless weird and twisted "tentacles" that attacked him. The surrounding space also became disordered. A large amount of disordered data piled up twisted buildings and covered the water. Countless twisted monsters constructed by error icons appeared out of thin air and rushed towards him.

[Just because you like them? Those female humans?! Don’t be ridiculous! They are all dead! What’s here are illusions! They are all illusions of the past! The entire “Paradise of the Past” is just a lie they built up! A lie that will bind you once again! A lie that will deceive you once again!!!]

“…You’re so long-winded.”

【……What? 】

"I said……"

He opened his mouth softly, and a blue mark passed through the entire data space, cutting off all its "tentacles". Then the blue water brought the dark sword back in front of him, with the tip of the sword facing down and sinking into the water. The waves quickly spread around him, smoothing out the disordered space. Countless blue translucent aquatic creatures jumped out of the water, biting and eating all the twisted monsters.

Finally, everything around turned into a stable, peaceful space, leaving only the azure sky and the silently falling drizzle, only the humid air around, and only... the azure sea water flowing quietly on the ground.

"Prey should look like prey."

woo-

As soon as he finished speaking, a horn sounded, echoing throughout the entire space.

【Wait...wait...this is impossible! 】

woo-

The horn sounded again, and the figures of the Honkai beasts jumped out of the water. Although there were only a few of them, this undoubtedly frightened it even more.

[This is impossible! How could you possibly do this here…here?! Could it be that…you…you have already…]

woo-

The only response was the constant sound of trumpets.

He walked slowly forward, casually pulled out the greatsword that was stuck in the water, held it in his hand, and the tip of the sword dropped over the azure water, creating waves.

The dark "hunter's suit" had faded away, replaced by a pure white robe, and a strange [ring] appeared above his head, spinning quietly.

Three pairs of huge wings spread out, and pure white feathers gently fall down, adding a touch of pure white to the blue sea. When falling, the pure white feathers will quietly fade away, turning into a pure lily that quietly blooms, and then silently disperses. The pure white petals drift with the sea breeze, turning into a refreshing fragrance.

woo-

So far, the trumpet has sounded seven times.

[Wait…wait a minute…senior? Can I call you that? Wait a minute, please?]

It retreated in fear. The huge body that was originally built up by redundant and chaotic data could no longer be maintained. The silently falling rain had quietly eaten away everything of it, leaving only its strange, fragile "body".

[Actually, I can do it too... Senior, I... I can do it too! ]

It spoke intermittently in a strange voice, and its originally strange body showed a brief disorder. Almost in the blink of an eye, its shape changed into that of Sakura, and then into that of Alicia, and even transformed into that of Grayshure.

[I can do it too. I can be like them... I can love you and like you like them... I can do it too...]

[I will never hurt you... nor will I deceive you... I can be like them, like you, love you... trust you... It doesn't matter who you want me to be.]

[Senior, you... you've woken up, right... you've woken up, so... so... we can actually be together, right? We're the most suitable... aren't we? We can destroy this civilization together, and then... always be together... I can replace them... replace them who have disappeared... and continue to love you.]

Its shape kept changing, and finally stopped at the appearance of Alicia.

[You... you see, it's the same... including... personality, right? ]

[Hi~ Want to play together~?]

clatter--

The footsteps haven't stopped yet.

[Not... not satisfied? Then... how about this? ]

[Wang, it's been a long time since we last met. Do you want... do you want some candy? ]

clatter--

[This…this one is not okay? Then…then…]

[Look...brother? ]

clatter--

He had already arrived in front of it, with the cold and wet tip of his sword already against it.

[Please...please...I...I will do anything...whatever you want...let...let me out...let me live...please...I just want to leave here alive...]

"........."

[…Senior…Senior]

Realizing that the coldness belonging to the sword had gone away, it stepped forward cautiously, still speaking softly in a pitiful tone.

only……

Then, a huge fish-shaped shadow enveloped it.

It opened its mouth, then closed its lips and teeth. A teeth-grinding biting and chewing sound was heard, and its wailing was fleeting. In just a few blinks of an eye, its figure had disappeared.

“…It’s not tasty.”

Xi Wang wiped his lips with his hand and frowned, looking a little disgusted.

"........."

His figure paused slightly, and the wings behind him folded silently, turning into feathers that quietly dissipated one by one. The [ring] above his head slowly faded away, and the scent of lilies that filled the air also dissipated unknowingly. Even the white robe on his body was covered by the dark "hunter's suit" again.

The azure water carried the sword away from his hand and floated quietly beside him.

"I knew ~ Wang would definitely come ~?"

Almost at the next moment, a pink figure swooped over, put her arms around Xi Wang's neck, hugged him, and rubbed him affectionately in his arms.

"Alicia..."

Although Xi Wang had a premonition and had opened his arms to welcome her in advance, but... to be honest, Alicia's enthusiasm was still a little too much to bear.

"Hmm? What's the matter~"

In response, Alicia just blinked, then curved her eyes like a crescent moon and smiled.

"Compared to what you said, you still want Sakura to do this, right? Unfortunately, Sakura is still too shy~?"

"It's not this... Never mind."

Xiwang didn't want to refute this too much...after all, he really hoped it was Ying.

He pushed Alicia slightly, trying to tell her that it was enough, but this time, Alicia did not let go, and even moved closer to his arms like a spoiled child.

"...Alicia?"

"...Nozomi, I'm really happy~"

She said this softly, with joy and tenderness.

"I'm really glad that you came to us."

The hand around his neck loosened quietly, gently stroking the thin, broken, and disappearing "ring marks" on his neck.

Even though its color is extremely pale and its shape is on the verge of breaking, but... it still exists.

"You... have always been a strong person... So strong that even I admire you... So, I am really... really happy."

She smiled, raised her head, and looked into his eyes. There was tenderness, joy, and... liking for him in her pupils.

"As expected...I like you the most~Wang~?"

The beautiful scenery is captured here.

…………

………………

"Huh... this should be enough."

In reality, Vivi was slightly relieved.

"Not only will we get rid of the Herrscher of Corrosion... but we can also delay his awakening a little longer."

She raised her head and looked to the other side of the observation window... In the deep and dark sea, only his figure was so obvious.

Three pairs of pure white wings emitted a faint glow, and countless azure "water" different from the surroundings mixed with pure white lily petals flowed around his body. His white hair like waves swayed gently in the water like seaweed. In front of him, a pink crystal flower was shining with a faint glow, and he was carefully protecting it in his arms... Ah, yes, this was him, the [Herrser of Revelation], [Herrser of the Sea] - Xiwang.

He is still there, still alive, sleeping in the deep sea. When the moment of "the end" comes, he will wake up and bring destruction to civilization once again.

but……

"……Ugh."

Weiwei looked at the increasingly faint lines on his neck and sighed helplessly. In the end, she could only continue to operate the equipment and prepare for Kevin's arrival.

"...I hope this [dream]...will satisfy you."

She said this softly.

Fire Chaser——Xiwang (SSS) No attributes

----------

[Blessing of the Ocean]: Xiwang has a certain degree of basic resistance to physical/elemental damage and abnormal status, and has a stronger ability to resist interruption.

[Biological Adaptability]: When Xiwang receives physical damage, his physical resistance will be increased by a small amount. When he receives elemental damage, his resistance to the corresponding element will be increased by a small amount. Each resistance can be increased by up to 50%.

[Sea Eclipse]: Each layer reduces the character's upper health by 2% (falls into a gray bar), up to 15 layers. Every 10 times of damage caused to Xiwang, 1 layer will be removed. When a character on the field has 10 layers of [Sea Eclipse], Xiwang will release [Whale Fall] once.

----------

[The Beginning of Life]: After the character enters the field, Xiwang will give the field the [Ocean] attribute, stay in the center of the field and generate a shield (50 times). If it is broken within a certain period of time, the character can gain full damage and increase the upper limit of life in the next battle; if it cannot be broken, Xiwang will gain full damage and increase the upper limit of life. During this process, tentacles will be generated on the field to attack the character every 1 second, and the attacked character will be superimposed with 2 layers of [Sea Erosion].

----------

[Blood Gives Me a Weapon]: Xiwang swings the greatsword to perform three consecutive attacks, two fast and one slow. The first two attacks cause a small amount of freezing elemental damage and cause the attacked character to stack one layer of [Sea Eclipse]. The third attack causes high physical and freezing elemental mixed damage, and stacks two layers of [Sea Eclipse]. When all three consecutive attacks hit, Xiwang will add one [Wave Leap].

[Leaping Waves]: Xiwang retreats a distance and quickly performs an upward strike with the greatsword, summoning sword energy like waves to extend in a straight line forward, causing a small amount of physical damage and high amount of freezing elemental damage and stacking 2 layers of [Sea Erosion]. When the sword energy of [Leaping Waves] hits, Xiwang adds an additional [Tide Strike].

[Tide Strike]: Xiwang rushes in front of the character quickly, and after a short delay, he uses his greatsword to perform a downward slash, and summons a tide to bombard a small area, causing high physical and frost elemental damage and stacking 3 layers of [Sea Erosion]. If the character is in a defensive posture at this time (blocking or in a state that can cause a blocking effect), it will cause an additional knockdown and a 3-second stun.

----------

[The Ocean Gives Me Strength]: When Xiwang attacks, he will summon various marine creatures to fight together, causing a small amount of physical damage while causing high amounts of freezing elemental damage.

[Swordfish]: Xiwang stabs forward with his hand as if it were a knife, and summons a swordfish to attack the character and stack 1 layer of [Sea Erosion] (can be dodged but not blocked).

[Killer Whale]: Xiwang throws a straight punch and summons a killer whale to attack the character and stack 1 layer of [Sea Erosion] (can be parried using melee attacks).

[Shark]: Xiwang takes a defensive stance. After being attacked, he summons sharks to bite the character and stack 3 layers of [Sea Erosion] (which has a forced control effect and comes with additional damage based on the number of [Sea Erosion] layers the character has).

[Crab]: Xiwang quickly approaches the character and summons a crab to perform a strong control throw on the character and stack 2 layers of [Sea Erosion].

[Octopus]: Xi Wang waves his hand to summon octopus tentacles to attack the character and stack 2 layers of [Sea Eclipse]. If the character is in the air/blocking state when attacked, it will cause a knockdown/knockdown effect on the character and stack an additional 2 layers of [Sea Eclipse].
