"And this familiar great collapse, guess who caused it?"
Kiana remained silent and looked towards the source of the sound.
With the collapse of the theater of domination, some hidden secrets can no longer be hidden.
The consciousness of Xilin, which was successfully captured by Su Jue, was not destroyed, but was bound. At this time, with the awakening of Kiana, the consciousness of the Herrscher of the Void also began to recover.
Countless silk threads were entangled around her body, binding her tightly behind the stage curtain. Her originally proud queen posture was gone, and she could only struggle like a caterpillar.
"Xilin? As expected, you will not give up invading my consciousness during the time I was asleep." Kiana was not surprised that the consciousness of the Herrscher of the Void appeared. When she decided to use her body to absorb the Honkai energy generated by the Honkai bomb, she had already anticipated the invasion of the Herrscher's consciousness.
But now, when facing the Herrscher consciousness, Kiana will no longer just run away like before. She knows very well that as long as her will is strong enough, the Herrscher consciousness will not be able to take away her body.
She snapped her fingers, and a small black room was constructed. The best way to deal with the Herrscher's consciousness is not to listen to it, not to think about it. Although imprisoning her deep in her consciousness cannot kill her, it can temporarily prevent herself from being affected.
However, Xilin, who was about to be locked up in a small dark room, had no intention of resisting. Instead, the mockery on her face became more and more intense.
"Invasion? No, I'm just a prey that fell into a trap. Before that, aren't you curious about why your own mental space is like this?"
Xilin's words hit the nail on the head with Kiana's current doubts. She was indeed curious about the changes around her, and Xilin's current state did not seem like the invasion was successful.
More importantly, she dreamed of Su Jue in each of her consecutive dreams. Apart from the previous messy ones, the last dream was too real, and the scenes she had seen before made her feel a little uneasy.
Su Jue is a Herrscher? How is that possible!
"Are you still trying to undermine my will through the people around me like you did before? I will never believe anything you say again." As soon as he finished speaking, the space in the small dark room opened and locked the still tied up Xilin in.
"Kiana, you and I are one. What I can guess is what you already have in your mind."
"In fact, you have already doubted him. But you chose to escape, chose to deceive yourself, and didn't dare to believe it."
"You think you can get away? You can't."
"Admit it, Su Jue... He is a monster just like you."
"And the one who gave birth to the Herrscher was you."
……
The sound finally disappeared, but the depression in my heart did not ease at all, but became even heavier.
The small dark room was buried deep in her consciousness. Kiana stood in the center of the stage for a long time, with a beam of light falling from above her head, illuminating her figure. The silk threads used to set up the theater were constantly disintegrating, shifting towards Kiana's original spiritual space.
These strange scenes were about to disappear, Kiana realized.
She slowly stretched out her fingers, and after some hesitation, she touched the silk threads with her fingertips.
Although they were just some silk threads, Kiana sensed a familiar breath - it was Su Jue.
When Kiana's consciousness was dormant, Su Jue could only couple his consciousness with Kiana in order to project the Theater of Domination. In a sense, these threads were the embodiment of his consciousness.
And in this situation, the two people's hearts are closest to each other.
It is also because of this that after touching these puppet threads, Kiana was able to sense the memories hidden deep in Su Jue's heart.
Kiana didn't figure out the principle, but her intuition told her that these threads represented Su Jue's consciousness, and this forced her to accept a fact.
"Those images are real. They are Su Jue's past."
I tried to perceive it again, but no image appeared.
Even if there is no rejection in the spiritual space of the two people, the mutual rejection from the soul is inevitable. The awakening of the owner of the spiritual space means that Su Jue's invasion of her has been minimal.
When the theater completely collapses, the consciousness of the two will be completely disconnected.
However, the erosion of Kiana's body has not yet recovered, and even though her consciousness has been awakened, she cannot wake up. In this state, she can only stay in the spiritual space temporarily, which can be regarded as temporarily delaying the speed of collapse.
In this extremely quiet environment, even though Kiana tried her best to stop herself from thinking about random things, Xilin's previous words could not help but echo in her mind.
"The Lawyer..."
"He deceived me..."
Obviously, she should be feeling very painful, but strangely, Kiana felt that she didn't seem to have much resistance to the fact that Su Jue was a Herrscher.
Instead, it was the scene that appeared in the picture that made her clench her fists tightly.
She had seen too many skies covered in gray fog and Honkai beasts appearing out of nowhere during her wandering days.
The world is collapsing!
And Su Jue awakened during that great collapse.
She didn't know what kind of Herrscher Su Jue awakened, and she didn't even dare to recall the boy's eyes in the picture.
Only those who are in despair will be chosen to become Herrschers. After receiving the memories of the Herrscher of the Sky, the experience of the Tower of Babylon also became her nightmare. Because of this, she knows better than anyone what kind of pain that is.
And it was Su Jue herself who caused her to awaken.
I'm afraid he has recognized me a long time ago.
The deep darkness gradually gathered, trying to wrap up Kiana again, just like it did before, drowning her.
"What an idiot." Tears rolled down her cheeks as Kiana opened her palms, a faint light flickering in them.
That was the little flame she borrowed from Su Jue. As long as it was there, Kiana's spiritual space would never fall into complete darkness.
"Idiot!" No one knew whether she was scolding herself or Su Jue, or whether they were both like fools, groping forward in this dark world.
The theater was still collapsing, but Kiana suddenly reached out, grabbed the threads tightly, and wrapped them around her arms.
"Come back here!"
Chapter 119 Evacuation
Above the sky, Su Jue, who was still struggling with Youlan Dell, suddenly felt panicked. He quickly looked around but found nothing.
According to the information he obtained from Alvette, the army of Destiny will arrive in more than half an hour. He does not have much time left, but retreating will not be difficult.
However, this panic came too suddenly, as if someone was invading his body.
Ontology?
Su Jue ignited the surrounding air again and successfully forced Youlan Dell back. Only then did he realize that his injuries were recovering rapidly. There was no doubt that this was a sign that the Serenity Gem was being used.
But he clearly didn't use the gems, and as he connected with the Herrscher Gems more and more, he suddenly discovered that the affinity of these gems to him was actually increasing.
Something was wrong. He was still acting as a severely injured Herrscher. If he was found to be able to use the Serenity Gem, Otto would risk his life to capture him. Moreover, most of the power of the Serenity Gem was still used to repair Kiana's injuries. If he began to recover, it meant that Kiana was likely to have an accident.
He didn't want anything to happen to Kiana, so he immediately called upon the Serenity Gem to apply its healing power to her. However, as soon as he called upon it, his authority was taken away again, so he had to treat Su Jue first.
The only ones who could compete with him for the rights to the gems were their original owners. Su Jue looked at the girl in his arms. Even in her deep sleep, a hint of worry appeared on Kiana's face.
Is she conscious?
Wait, I guess I just deceived Kiana by playing the victim.
After realizing this possibility, Su Jue immediately sank into his consciousness. As expected, the theater he set up in Kiana's heart had completely collapsed, leaving only a small part of the thread connecting the gem.
As the girl's consciousness awakened, Su Jue's control over the gem should have been interrupted. However, not only did it not disappear, but it became tighter and tighter.
He didn't know that in the spiritual space, Kiana was pulling a bunch of threads to wind around the Serenity Gem. Although her body couldn't sense the outside world, she could feel the changes in his body with the help of Su Jue's silk thread, so after discovering that he was injured, she wanted to treat him.
"Su Jue, hold on!"
In the outside world, Youlan Dell, who was fighting with Su Jue, also noticed the changes in him. He was seriously injured and almost dying just now, but now he has recovered almost all.
The Herrscher of Fire does not have such a strong recovery ability. Bianca frowned tightly, and the damage caused by the Black Abyss White Flower has disappeared.
"It's the Serenity Gem." Otto, who had been paying attention to the battlefield, immediately gave an answer. He quickly switched back to the previous video and played it frame by frame.
"The Herrscher of the Sky who started to recover two minutes ago may have awakened. Let's end the battle quickly."
At the same time, after several hours of travel, the transport ships of the Destiny Valkyrie Army were about to arrive in Sky City, and the pace suddenly became urgent.
Pirated products are ultimately inferior to genuine products. Even if Su Jue tried his best to refuse, the healing effect was getting stronger and stronger. Moreover, he found with some helplessness that the thread he had placed in Kiana's spiritual space could not be retrieved.
"Wow, stop messing around, idiot."
The plan was suddenly disrupted, and Su Jue was speechless, but fortunately the impact was not great.
Now that the Serenity Gem has been discovered, he might as well stop acting.
With a raise of his arm, the flaming sword condensed again, and this time it was a real sword.
Yulandel, who had just received Otto's order and was about to explode, had a slightly changed expression on his face, and saw a greatsword nearly 40 meters long slashing down at him.
boom--
The violent heat flow erupted again, and this time it was no small commotion. Most of the sky was on fire, and Bianca, who had been fighting back and forth, was directly suppressed.
Every strike of the giant sword would directly ignite the ground hundreds of meters away. If everyone had not evacuated, these battles alone would have killed half of the people in the city.
However, at this moment, a beam cannon shot directly past his body, and Tianming's troops finally arrived.
"Walking on the snow!" At this point, the original plan was ruined and the only option left was to follow plan B.
The furry orange cat somehow jumped high into the air, and suddenly expanded into a large cat several meters long in the scorching flames. This was the effect of the potion obtained from the jackal, but unlike the bare shell of ordinary Honkai beasts, Treading Snow was still a cat even if it grew larger.
Putting Kiana in his arms on the cat, Taxue fled into the distance. No matter what, the Queen must not be caught. As for Su Jue himself, he planned to have a chat with the Bishop.
On the ground, Mei, who was blankly watching Kiana being held in someone else's arms, was still observing the battle situation. After seeing the arrival of the Schicksal warship, she looked nervous. She could only pray secretly that Kindred's people would be more reliable and not let Schicksal take Kiana away.
"Have you thought it through? Raiden Mei." Qianjie found Mei and handed the lost sword to her.
"I..." She was a little hesitant in her heart. She still didn't trust Qian Jue's people, but when she looked at the big cat that appeared in the sky and saw the figure holding the giant flaming sword, she finally nodded.
"Very good, welcome to join us." Qianjie swiftly carried the immobile Mei onto his shoulders and ran in the direction where Taxue had left.
"Wait, what are you going to do?" Mei was in pain from being shaken, but she didn't care about anything else. These people were a bunch of lunatics, and judging from their posture, they were probably going to do something big.
"Of course the Queen will be handed over to your protection for the time being. I hope you won't let us down."
In the distant sky, a large shadow emerged from the darkness. Benares, who had been hidden by Su Jue for a long time, finally found Sky City. She immediately sensed Kiana's location and rushed towards the battlefield.
Otto naturally could not be concealed from the sudden changes on the battlefield. He immediately realized that the Herrscher of the Void wanted to escape. A large number of Valkyries were dispatched and the fleet began to attack at all costs.
Su Jue stood alone in the sky. He had forcibly cut off the connection with Kiana, and naturally he no longer had the power of the gem. He could only rely on Gray's stigma power to float in the air.
"I heard that the Herrscher of Fire has the strongest destructive power, so let me give it a try." Looking at the indomitable Yulandel in front of him, Su Jue whispered to himself.
"Good morning, Sky City."
A thin line suddenly appeared in the dark sky, just like a naughty child's casual drawing. However, whether it was Orlandel or the Valkyrie Army, or even those who were just watching Sky City through the screen, they all felt the terrible oppression.
Then, daybreak came.
Chapter 120 Star Anchor
"With this raging fire, nothing can be cut off."
In the blazing red light, the sky was neatly divided into two halves, and at the dividing line, the sound of transport ships exploding continued.
If it weren't for the timely landing of the Valkyrie of Destiny, they would have all died here. But even so, most of the troops sent this time were destroyed. The strong heat was not something that ordinary B-level Valkyries could withstand. Basically, all of them were seriously injured. If it weren't for the excellent equipment of Destiny, the flames alone would have killed them.
In a Herrscher-level battle, those below A-level were just cannon fodder, and that was when Su Jue held back. Now that the citizens of Sky City had basically evacuated, he no longer had to worry about casualties, and after a brief pause, he once again raised his 40-meter greatsword.
Just as he was about to strike out with his second sword, a large number of beam weapons were already aimed at him. In order to capture the Herrscher, Skymanship had invested a lot of money, including many warships of the same level as the Eos.
The light energy weapon arrived instantly, but as I said before, the abilities of the Herrschers were all BUG-level. Su Jue only controlled the air molecules around him to form convection, which made the gas in the same space produce completely different refractive indices. Although it was not enough to completely deflect the beam, it was enough to cause distortion.
It's useless. Since the Herrscher of Fire can control the movement of molecules, he basically has the power over energy weapons.
If you want to fight, you either have to choose material weapons or Honkai weapons. The most direct way is of course to send out warriors like Yulandel to engage in melee combat.
Unfortunately, Bianca was unable to withstand this level of attack and was blasted back to the ground by the flames, without making any sound.
Su Jue easily neutralized Tianming's sneak attack, and his second sword had already been swung out, this time aiming at the remaining warships.
The flowing flames formed by the high temperature filled the sky. Although it was clearly night, it was like the fiery clouds at sunset, lighting up the sky like a scene in a fantasy novel.
No one noticed that in the flames, some space channels opened silently and swallowed all the damaged warships.
These are all important spoils of Kindred's organization, how can they be wasted? Anyway, once they enter the Domination Theater, all the monitoring facilities designed by Destiny will be ineffective. If the Domination Authority can scan them again, they can get the warship for free.
Thanks to the deterrence of Su Jue's sword, in order to avoid casualties of the Valkyries, Tianming basically had no garrison personnel on the warships, and they were all driven by AI. There were even some well-preserved ones, which were obtained without any effort.
When the plot in the game happens, if Dr. Tesla still dares to use the battleship to bomb the puppet, he will have to let the other party understand what fire suppression is.
Of course, having a battleship alone is not enough. We don’t have any puppets that can do scientific research yet, so even if we get one, we won’t be able to understand it for the time being.
No matter what, the momentum of Su Jue's two swords has been fully unleashed. The information that there is a Herrscher alone is enough to make the whole world aware of its existence. Not to mention that Qian Jue's leader is the Herrscher of the Void who almost destroyed the world. The organization established by the two strongest Herrschers, just think about the Duha people.
Floating in the sky, Su Jue looked down at the earth. A large number of Valkyries were landing in a panic like dumplings.
