If Lin Yu was still awake, Kiana felt that with Lin Yu's powerful blocking skills and the ability to break the floor with one blow, he might still be able to fight this donkey-eared woman.
But now, Lin Yu was unconscious, and their team of three unconscious people completely turned into a team of four unconscious people.
"But the quality of your pistol is not very good, kid."
After using the katana to split the enemy's weapon in half, the cherry-haired shrine maiden finally stopped hiding the malice in her heart and gave a malicious smirk to the people in front of her.
"The quality of the pistol used by that Valkyrie was much better than yours."
"Humph, even without a pistol, I can still beat you with my fists!"
Looking at the enemy in front of her, Kiana immediately adopted a fighting stance.
"Wow, that's scary. It's just..."
"——Does your strength match your tone?"
As the knife flashed again, Kiana realized that she was indeed a little too confident.
Generally speaking, when the strength of both sides is equal, the side with weapons will have a great advantage.
Even in the eyes of some warriors, if an unarmed person and an armed person fight to a draw, it means that the former is several times stronger than the latter.
But now, Kiana has no items that can be used as weapons.
Even her strength was actually far inferior to that of the knife-wielding witch in front of her.
Although it is not good to boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige, one cannot hypnotize others by saying "I am very strong and can kill you with a big slap" when he is about to be beaten to death.
People always have to face reality.
And now the reality that Kiana has to face is that if no reinforcements come, all five of them will be killed by this guy who appeared here inexplicably!
"What's wrong? Why are you hiding behind all these harsh words?"
“You bastard…!”
Looking at the Honkai energy attached to the blade, Kiana said angrily.
"If you have the guts, fight me with your bare hands! What's the point of bullying an unarmed person?"
"what?"
After slashing the enemy in front of her with the blade once again, the woman's face had become slightly distorted.
"I have a weapon instead of fighting you with my bare hands? Do you think I'm a fool?"
Provoking someone doesn't work.
Senior, you shouldn’t have done that at that time... Forget it, if he hadn’t let everyone get off the bus, we would have all been blown away.
It won't be a big problem for my body to be affected by the explosion, but these two children and Mei will be seriously hurt.
And the senior... um, wait.
Just when Kiana discovered something, Kiana, who was distracted by this matter, found that the opponent's weapon was approaching her again.
But this time, Kiana, who was distracted and slowed down, found herself unable to dodge.
But at the same time, because the woman focused all her attention on Kiana, she didn't notice...
——Lin Yu suddenly jumped up and punched the opponent directly in the abdomen.
At this time, Lin Yu used the skill [Energy Conversion] to convert part of the magic power in his body into Honkai energy. He then combined the Honkai energy with the skill [Cosmic Phantom] and made his fist burst out with terrible power in one breath.
Even though he did not use the energy storage ability of the Royal Guard to increase his destructive power this time, the power of this punch was enough to hurt the woman who was completely unprepared for Lin Yu at this time.
"you......!"
The woman didn't have time to defend herself, and was knocked away by Lin Yu's sudden attack before she could hit Kiana with her blade.
“Damn it, when exactly…!”
After being knocked away by Lin Yu, the woman rolled on the ground several times before she climbed up from the ground using her sword to support her body.
"From the very beginning."
At this time, Lin Yu, who was using his body to block Kiana, had no trace of the previous fatigue on his face. Instead, he looked relaxed as he moved his joints and spoke nonchalantly to the enemy.
"Sleeping in the wilderness - do you think I would be so stupid?"
"Damn it...! You humans are indeed not very good! You even deceived your companions when no enemy appeared!"
"Humph, Senior must have sensed your approach, so he made preparations in advance."
At this time, when Kiana said these words confidently, she took a step forward and arched Lin Yu's lower ribs with her elbow.
"Well done, Senior."
"...Ah, yes, that's right."
Lin Yu had already discovered the trace of the enemy in front of him...
——Holy crap, that’s impossible.
He was really so tired that he didn't want to move, and he really fell asleep.
If the energy fluctuations of Honkai emitted by the enemy after approaching this time were not too strong, Lin Yu felt that even if there was any disturbance around him, he would not be awakened like this.
hateful.
I really want to sleep.
But this won’t do now. If I don’t pretend to be at ease and let the other person find out that I’m really tired, then everything will be over.
Yuno didn't catch up, but that certainly didn't mean that she suddenly came to her senses and suppressed the murderous intent in her heart.
There was no chance that Herrscher, whose brain had begun to be filled with malice, would suddenly wake up on his own.
It must be destiny that sent someone here.
The reinforcements are coming. If I delay a little longer, after they deal with Yuno, they will probably start searching towards me along the trajectory.
If you just stay calm and take your time...
"Damn humans, and...damn Yaezakura!"
At this moment, the woman suddenly covered her head and began to wail in pain.
"You are already mine! Why don't you just be obedient?"
However, after the woman said this malicious and violent remark, she suddenly changed her tone and spoke to the two men with helplessness and apology.
"You two, I'm sorry to drag you into the fight between me and it."
"I'll take care of this myself, so please hurry up - do you think I'll let them go!"
The woman who changed her tone once again burst out with even more powerful Honkai energy than before.
"I originally wanted to choose a body suitable for me to parasitize, and then let the rest of you die quickly."
"But now, I've changed my mind."
"you......"
"——Come in, everyone!"
Damn, this is an AOE map cannon.
"Don't resist!"
After taking the initiative to grab Kiana and throwing her away, Lin Yu was covered by the sudden burst of light from the opponent.
After the light faded, Kiana got up from the ground and immediately looked towards the place where Lin Yu and the woman had just fought.
“Senior…Senior!”
At this time, Lin Yu, Theresa, and Bronya all showed varying degrees of Honkai energy fluctuations.
But unlike the other two, only Lin Yu had something that the other two did not have.
Lin Yu's body was now covered with Honkai Energy patterns that would appear only after Honkai Energy infects living things.
At the same time, Lin Yu, whose body was full of Honkai energy patterns, showed a painful expression in front of Kiana.
However, even though his body had become like this, Lin Yu still tried to open his mouth and say something.
Kiana, who was staring at Lin Yu, understood what Lin Yu wanted to say through his lip movements.
[Kiana, run away]
Stupid senior, why are you saying this at this time...!
Don't just take care of me, take care of yourself!
"Kiana, run!"
After uttering this cry, Lin Yu suddenly opened his eyes.
Then, after scanning the surrounding situation, Lin Yu didn't know if he should breathe a sigh of relief now.
At the last moment, Lin Yu realized that the [Previous Era Corrosion Herrscher] Ling in Yaezakura's body was about to cause trouble, so he threw Kiana out one step ahead.
And now, in this Japanese-style room, except for Lin Yu who had just woken up, Mei, Bronya, and Theresa were lying beside him, still in a deep sleep.
In any case, Kiana was not pulled into this space, so Lin Yu avoided the worst situation.
When Ling, who is able to launch mental attacks on others, meets Kiana, who is not in a good mental state, the chemical reaction that occurs at that time may be far more terrifying than when Kiana meets other Herrschers.
As for why Lin Yu, a person with resistance to mental attacks, was easily captured in this space, the reason is very simple.
He was too tired and had very little energy left.
Even if one has the skills to resist this kind of attack, if the user of the skill is too tired, the probability of being affected by the enemy's psychic ability will naturally increase.
However, being attacked by Ling did not mean that Lin Yu had completely lost the ability to resist.
This is indeed the stigmata space where Ling and Yae Sakura are located, and for Ling, this is her home ground.
But the problem is that Ling in this space, perhaps because she has been sealed for too long, has long forgotten what the most terrifying use of her [Corrosion Ruler] power is for others.
The Ling of the previous era activated her power only after she was killed.
By eroding the power of the Herrscher, she instantly gained control of the launch authority of humanity's remaining weapons and wiped out most of humanity.
It can be said that if Ling still remembered how she slaughtered humans in the past, then she would find a time to do it secretly. By then, if not all humans in this era would die, they would at least face heavy casualties.
But Ling in the stigmata space has completely forgotten how to "fight".
And now, Lin Yu, who is in this space, still feels very tired, but it is much better than the previous state where he would pass out as soon as he closed his eyes.
Mingjing Zhishui can be used...ha, then you don’t have to worry about many problems.
It turned out to be the case.
Part of my fatigue comes from the mental level, and the other part comes from the physical level.
Now I am only moving within the stigmata space, so physical fatigue naturally cannot interfere with me, so my condition has recovered a little... right?
The principle doesn't really matter. The key point now is that I must find a way to suppress and seal the Corrosion Ruler here.
In the original story, she chose to stop doing evil because Theresa did not hate Otto or her.
But the problem is that just because Theresa can subdue the other party in this way, it doesn’t mean that Lin Yu can easily stop the other party from causing trouble.
The plot is so messed up now that the original plot can only serve as a reference.
And no matter how things are handled after the battle, this battle is inevitable.
During these fifty thousand years, Ling forgot how to use power, but during these fifty thousand years, her disgust towards humans grew day by day.
Whether you want to reason with her or use violence to make her submit, it ultimately requires enough strength.
Just Mingjing Shisui and the Royal Guards are not enough, the cognition rewriting effect of the slide barrier... Ha, there is no way this skill can be easily effective in front of a Herrscher like her who can manipulate people's hearts.
There are ways to deal with this, but facing a strong person of this level when I am at my weakest...
It’s a headache. I’m just an agent without armor or stigmata. Why do I encounter so many troubles?
After taking a look at Theresa who was still sleeping, Lin Yu felt that he seemed to understand why things turned out like this.
As a synthetic human created by combining Kallen's DNA and Honkai beast's genes, Theresa naturally has some of Kallen's aura.
