Chapter 230: Demonic Power, Residing in the Body
To be honest, even if Lin Yu was a person who was afraid of death, he would not start to scare himself after he had gained a certain level of strength.
Especially when the system clearly stated that ordinary Herrschers could not threaten him, Lin Yu could only think about other possibilities.
In this world, there are only a few people whose strength is above that of ordinary Herrschers.
Su is a friendly force, so he should go out first.
Siegfried was also a friendly force, and Walter, who had a very close relationship with him, would definitely not have nothing better to do than to come and beat him up.
Otto... Otto probably doesn't know his true thoughts now. In this situation, Otto is probably the person in the world who is most worried about Lin Yu's safety, so he should not be the one who brings the threat.
Putting aside those events with extremely low probability, no matter how reluctant Lin Yu is, he must face the fact now.
Kevin, definitely Kevin is out.
But if it was Kevin...
——Kevin is only worth one [Advanced Skill Book Raffle Ticket]???
[Don't talk nonsense. I won't kill you directly because I have nothing to do after eating. ]
[You have made such progress in less than three months. If it weren't for the lack of time, Kevin would have trained you as a key training target. ]
Oh, that makes sense.
In the original novel, when he faced the coreless Ban Ya and the low-health Lao Yang, he did not take advantage of their misfortune to attack them.
Logically speaking, he should have first persuaded me to join the World Snake, and then I would consider whether to refuse or not.
If I didn't refuse and joined the World Serpent directly, he would have no reason to beat me up.
[Would you do this?]
Nonsense, the warning is Kevin Kaslana.
Is it shameful to play dead in front of this man?
[That makes sense, but... hehehe. ]
[The reward has been given to you, and the subsequent operations are up to you. 】
[This system will make an exception and give you a reminder - don't forget, something has been wrong with this world for a long time. ]
After this sentence, the system did not say anything more to Lin Yu.
After the system went offline, Lin Yu asked Mike to keep an eye on the follow-up intelligence from the headquarters, while he directly used this very strange lottery ticket.
Accompanied by a flash of purple light mixed with a hint of gold, a purple skill book appeared in front of Lin Yu.
[Skill Book - Grand Cross (Castlevania series)]
[Grand Cross——The unique skill of the vampire hunter Belmont family. After using it, it releases a powerful large cross through magic to attack surrounding enemies, with extremely strong destructive power]
[Note: The moment this skill is activated, the user can enter a brief invincible state.]
[Note 2: After activating this skill, the user will continuously attract enemies to their vicinity, thus forcing the enemies to withstand the attacks from the Great Cross.]
[Note 3: The above are all basic usages. Users can study this skill on their own and develop other usage methods.]
Ah, it's a very powerful move.
So I feel really more panicked now.
There must be supplies before a big battle, and now such powerful skills are here...
Normally, Kevin would not kill me.
But...this has been the nth time, and I'm still thinking from common sense.
Damn it, if this world had even a little common sense, four Herrschers wouldn't have appeared in just three months.
Don't think too much, just pack your bags and get ready for battle.
With my luck, the Herrscher will definitely come for me.
After this thought came to his mind, Lin Yu, who was already prepared, received a communication from the headquarters as expected.
"Hello, Lin Yu, can you hear me? I'm Theresa!"
"Bishop, if you have something to say, just tell me..."
Hearing Lin Yu's weak state, Theresa suddenly panicked.
"Are you too tired from fighting the Honkai beast? If so, quickly find a way to escape in the opposite direction!"
"The Herrscher who just appeared suddenly went crazy for some reason and started rushing towards you from the area where the Honkai energy erupted."
"You won't come into contact with it now, but in a few minutes - in short, don't be stubborn, reinforcements are on the way!"
"Ah, I understand. Please rest assured, Bishop."
After hearing Lin Yu hang up the phone, Theresa still felt very uneasy.
"Really? Why did the Herrscher appear at this very moment? The last Herrscher appeared less than three days ago!"
"Himeko, has Bianca already been dispatched?"
"what."
Looking at the news on the intelligence screen, Ji Zi said to Theresa very calmly.
"Bianca has already gone there on the fastest transport plane."
"It's just... I don't think you need to worry so much."
"You, how can you say such a thing!"
Hearing Ji Zi's seemingly heartless words, Theresa spoke even more anxiously.
"Lin Yu's tone just now was so tired, it must be because the previous battle was too hard."
"Even though he survived the previous battle against Yuno, now—"
"Alas, the past is the past, and the present is the present."
Looking at Theresa's extremely anxious expression, Ji Zi said very calmly.
"He has the Key of Blankness and the Seven Thunders of Purification, so his strength is much stronger than before."
"And given how this kid usually likes to act, if he really feels that something is not right, he will act like he is in high spirits to tell us not to worry."
"Rather than worrying about Lin Yu's safety, I think you should think about what you should say to her when she comes back."
"she?"
Although Jizi did not clearly point out who "she" was, now that Jizi had successfully diverted her attention, Theresa immediately remembered one thing.
During the fourth Houkai outbreak, the World Serpent took her student Wendy away from the Oceania branch.
The reason why her student Wendy participated in the artificial herrscher experiment was because Theresa recommended her.
Even if Theresa had many reasons, from an objective point of view, Theresa was sorry for Wendy in this matter.
Now there is someone out there who has become a Herrscher, and Wendy happens to have a Herrscher Gem in her body...
Seeing Theresa holding her head in annoyance, Ji Zi felt that her plan had failed.
The main reason she said these words was to prevent Theresa from worrying too much about Lin Yu.
As a result, after saying these words, Theresa's suppressed guilt could no longer be suppressed after she guessed that 'Wendy might have become a Herrscher'.
Alas, she has too many emotions, which is probably Theresa's advantage.
But it is precisely because you value sentimentality that you are far from Bishop Otto's character.
Although being humane is not a bad thing, Theresa...
Bishop Otto had already started to cause trouble in the fourth collapse. If he continues in this style, he will definitely commit more evil.
At that time, you have to fight him, but you still maintain this naive style...
——By then, he will scheme against you to the point where your life would be worse than death.
But then again, Theresa was overly worried, but...
"Hey, Grandma Himeko?"
Seeing Ji Zi's eyes looking at her, Lin Yi, who was reading messages on a tablet, asked Ji Zi in confusion.
"What's wrong?"
"Xiaoyi, I'm only 27 years old."
After walking up to Lin Yi with a stern look on her face, Ji Zi approached the girl in front of her with a twitching mouth and spoke viciously to Lin Yi.
"Don't you think it's a little inappropriate to call a 27-year-old unmarried woman grandma?"
"But, but I am from Shenzhou."
Looking at the woman in front of her who was emitting a sense of oppression, Lin Yi asked in confusion.
"We in Shenzhou attach great importance to seniority. Using the wrong seniority and address to other elders is not what a good child should do, right?"
No, cannot refute.
This child...is it true that he has only been conscious for a few months?
Looking at Lin Yi with an innocent face in front of her, Ji Zi always felt that if she had a child, the child might not be as smart as Lin Yi is now even when he is in his teens.
And...
Hey!
That is destiny’s job!
Why are you handling it?
Watching Lin Yi handling some not-so-complicated matters in an orderly manner, Ji Zi looked back at Theresa who was still holding her head, and felt that this world was too magical.
But considering that this world has been abnormal since the moment it collapsed, Ji Zi suppressed her desire to complain and asked Lin Yi softly.
"Xiaoyi, when you heard that your father might be in danger, aren't you worried about his safety?"
"Grandma Himeko."
Hearing Ji Zi's question, Lin Yi closed the light curtain in front of her and looked at Ji Zi subtly.
"I am calm, not cold-blooded."
"My father has been threatened. I am definitely worried, but..."
"——If I cry and make a fuss like a little kid, not only will it waste your and Grandma Theresa's time, but if Dad knew about it, he would definitely be distracted."
"If it's because of me that Dad gets distracted during the battle and loses the battle, I think I will never forgive myself in my life."
Thinking back to the students she taught and the classmates she met in college, Ji Zi, who was looking at Lin Yi at this time, felt that...
Forget it, that age should be increased by at least ten years.
Why on earth does this child have such an IQ at this age?
Alas, if I wasn't afraid that this question would hurt her as an artificial human, I would really like to ask her what she went through from the time she was born to the time she found Lin Yu.
Besides, let’s not talk about other people now.
Even though Kiana is much more sensible now, she is still nothing compared to her daughter.
The mother is a naughty child, but the daughter is so well-behaved...
Could it be that Yuno and Lin Yu’s genes successfully suppressed Kiana’s genes?
At the same time, inside the transport plane
After completing the communication with the headquarters, Lin Yu immediately put on the blank key and took out the Seven Thunders of Purification from the soul steel storage box.
"Mike, follow the instructions from headquarters and retreat in the opposite direction."
"Oh oh, okay--what a ghost!"
Looking back, he saw that Lin Yu had already put on the Blank Key and picked up the God Key. Mike felt his eyes twitching.
"According to Bishop Theresa's orders, we should retreat."
"You look like you're going to fight the Herrscher to death—don't do that!"
