This is not the sweat that flows after exercise, nor the blood that flows after injury.
After gently wiping her eyes with the back of her hand, the girl named Yuno realized that her vision had already become blurred.
“There’s nothing wrong with what I’m doing, but why… why is this happening…”
Looking at the girl crying, Bronya suddenly felt sad.
Even relying on just a few words from the girl, she had completely restored the truth of the incident.
Although the impact of the third collapse had nothing to do with most people in the city, a small number of people were still affected by the collapse.
The girl in front of him had the qualifications to become a Herrscher, so she was chosen by Honkai the moment the Herrscher of Lightning awakened.
When the girl's mother realized that something was wrong with her girl, she instinctively wanted to care for her daughter.
But at this moment, tragedy struck.
Those who are chosen by Honkai will have their body and mind controlled by the will of Honkai, thus becoming apostles of destruction.
And the first person to break this Ruler...
——is the mother who cares about her the most.
The root cause of all these tragedies is, of course, the so-called [collapse phenomenon].
But who was the one who caused this tragedy of the girl killing her parents?
It was Mother Cocolia who guided the Third Herrscher to awaken in Changzora City.
It's Bronya who helps Cocolia's mother.
Bronya is a young soldier and a professional executioner.
After her emotional circuits were damaged, Bronya should have become calmer.
But now...why...
Looking at the girl in front of her, Bronya really seemed to want to run away from her.
This is not because the other party is a powerful Herrscher, but because...
Bronya realizes a truth she must face.
What she did was simply trampling on the happiness of these innocent people.
In the past, when Bronya had to kill others during missions, she always killed the targets cleanly and neatly, and had basically never encountered such an uncomfortable scene.
But now, realizing that this tragedy was caused by herself, the girl felt that the will to fight was gradually fading away in her heart.
"Why look away?"
After seeing the girl's strange movements, Yuno, who had become a Herrscher, suddenly said with a grim expression.
"Damn it! Are you looking down on me like mom and those guys?"
"No, that's not the case, Bronya..."
"Ah, I see. You must be one of them!"
Yuno suddenly became furious and said to Bronya with disappointment.
"I was going to ask you if you would like to be my companion."
"Forget it, you are just like those guys, garbage in this world."
Oops!
Feeling the strength of Yuno's Houkai energy begin to increase, Bronya immediately took another step back.
And in the next moment...
“God has said…”
"——Garbage and the world filled with garbage should be cleaned up together!"
Along with the huge explosion of Honkai energy, the ground where Bronya and Yuno were located was instantly covered by a large number of vines.
..
Chapter 64. When these two emotions intertwine...
Countless vines sprouted from the ground, and Yuno, the culprit who released these vines, had already determined that the girl in front of her, whom she wanted to win over, was definitely dead.
But just as she was about to retract the vines, a laser suddenly broke through the web of vines and shot towards Yuno.
Yuno, who was hit by the laser, turned around immediately and looked at the wall that was collapsed by the laser with an expression of disbelief.
"...You little brat!"
At this moment, the Herrscher girl who was hit by the laser became more angry.
Yuno, who has not yet become a true Herrscher, does not yet have the imaginary shield that only Herrscher can use.
The intensity of this Honkai energy laser is not low. Even if Yuno, who has become a Herrscher, is hit head-on by the laser, she will be directly injured by the laser.
What made Yuno even more upset was that she could feel that the opponent could actually hit her.
When he could have hit her, he actually chose "Intimidation Attack". This was a complete humiliation for the girl who already regarded herself as "God's Apostle".
As for Bronya, who had already summoned the Armored Bunny, she really felt that she had become too weak at this moment.
Because of the guilt she still had towards the girl in her heart, Bronya subconsciously let the Heavy Armored Bunny miss when she summoned it to attack Yuno.
Looking at the furious Herrscher at this moment, Bronya knew that she had lost the best chance to defeat the enemy.
When the enemy doesn't know that she can summon the Quantum Mecha, the Heavy Armored Bunny is the trump card that Bronya can use to achieve a surprise victory.
But now, after the heavy-armored bunny launched an attack, the enemy has already been prepared for the heavy-armored bunny. In this case...
"Reload Bunny, Fire!"
"Ha, do you think you still have a chance to defeat me?"
Yuno opened her right hand towards the enemy and summoned countless vines to form several thick vine shields.
After these vines created by Honkai energy overlapped to form a shield in mid-air, the laser shot by the Heavy Rabbit, this time, completely exhausted its power after penetrating several shields.
At the same time, Bronya, sensing a wave of energy, immediately began to move her body again.
However, this time, Bronya looked at the attacking vines and suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
The vines, which were not particularly fast at first, suddenly accelerated at this moment and attacked Bronya's forearm.
Although Bronya dodged the attack by brushing against the vine in a very thrilling way, at that moment, Bronya felt her eyes go dark and her strength was disappearing.
"Damn...you..."
"Ha, you stupid brat, do you really think that the power of God's Apostle is comparable to that of you and that piece of iron?"
Looking at Bronya lying on the ground, a sadistic smile suddenly appeared on Yuno's face.
"Game over, kid."
On the other side, the heavily-armored rabbit saw its master being attacked and wanted to launch an attack on the enemy.
Just at this moment, at the place where the heavy-armored rabbit was staying, a big tree suddenly emerged from the ground.
If it was just an ordinary tree, of course it would not be able to hurt the Heavy Armored Rabbit at all.
But this big tree was created by Nai after accumulating strength in secret.
The tree woven from Honkai energy pierced the body of the Heavy Armored Bunny with its sharp branches.
After suffering excessive damage in a short period of time, the Heavy-Armored Bunny temporarily disappeared from this world.
"Sure enough, after the master fell, this iron lump became much easier to deal with."
"So now..."
After walking up to the fallen Bronya, Yuno concentrated the Honkai energy on her right hand, allowing the vines to form a claw-like gauntlet that intertwined her right arm.
"Good night, little sister Bronya."
At this moment, Yuno, who had already regarded the other party as a dead person, gently waved the sharp claws in her hand at Bronya.
But at the same time, Yuno who made this move...
——Before killing the enemy, he suddenly saw a huge golden cross flying towards him.
........
Two minutes ago. Changkong City
Theresa Apokalis, who was working with her subordinates in Changkong City, gestured to her subordinates to stop.
"Lady Theresa?"
"Everyone, leave the rest to me."
Looking at the subordinate who was about to speak, Theresa immediately spoke to him.
"I know everyone wants to fight with me, but this time my opponent is the Herrscher."
"...Even if it's a Herrscher, we can help Lady Theresa delay his advance."
"I'm talking to you guys..."
Looking at the determined looks of her subordinates, Theresa said helplessly.
"I can't just watch you get beaten to death by the Herrscher. If you stay there, it will only distract me."
"You stay where you are and keep in touch with the headquarters. If you are just a pseudo-herrscher, you are no match for me."
"Now I have only returned the title of S-class Valkyrie, but it doesn't mean that my strength has decreased."
After listening to Theresa's speech, the other Valkyries looked at each other and stayed where they were tacitly.
In fact, just as Theresa said, they are really useless when facing a strong person like the Herrscher.
Before the second collapse, the level upgrade review mechanism for the Destiny Valkyrie Syu was still very strict.
The five-member Snow Wolf Team, who were at the peak of the A-rank Valkyrie at the time, even defeated a Judgment-rank Honkai Beast and delayed the Second Herrscher for several minutes.
If the five people at that time were here, they might have played a role in the battle with the Herrscher.
But now these A-level Valkyries...
To put it bluntly, after the difficulty of the review has been reduced, the current S-level Rita may not be able to win against the five people who were at the top of the A-level at that time.
And for them, who are far inferior to Rita's A-level, to fight against the Herrscher is indeed no different from committing suicide from a practical point of view.
"Alright, alright, stop looking at me like that. It's as if I'm going to be beaten to death and you guys are mourning in advance."
"I'll come as soon as I go."
After saying this, Theresa, holding the Key of God Cross [Judas's Oath], began to sprint rapidly in the direction she sensed.
After seeing a little girl lying on the ground in front of her, Theresa grabbed the Oath of Judah and threw it directly at the girl on the other side.
"Tsk, there are still some little devils who are not afraid of death?"
Looking at this huge cross, Yuno instinctively felt a little fearful of it.
Yuno used the Honkai energy vines to weave a shield as quickly as possible, letting the shield float in front of and behind her, with a slight smile on her face.
Hum, even though this cross gives me a bad feeling, but...
Ok? !
The moment the cross touched the shield, the shield was "melted" instantly, like ice encountering flames.
At such a close distance, Yuno had no time to react before being hit directly in the face by the Oath of Judas, sending her flying backwards on the spot.
"Heh, stupid Herrscher."
At this time, Theresa picked up the dazed Bronya from the ground and made a face at Yuno.
"My divine key [Judas's Oath] is the nemesis of Honkai."
"With your level of Honkai energy, it's not even enough to stand up to Judas."
