However, after entering the combat state, the channel connecting the Herrscher to the imaginary space was completely opened. At this time, the core was the high-voltage interface. Not only was the voltage ridiculously high, there was no voltage regulator, and even the port was directly exposed to the air. As long as an ordinary person got close, he would be completely evaporated without even the chance of being transformed into a dead soldier.
"You mean he's going to lose control at any moment?"
"It is very likely that it is not just the concentration of Honkai energy that is increasing. His body temperature is also rising. The current surface temperature has reached 42 degrees. Under such high temperatures, the cells in his body are dying in large numbers, while releasing the accumulated Honkai energy, accelerating the speed of losing control."
Amber's reminder reminded Otto of the scene when Su Jue vomited blood. That should be a sign that his body was losing balance. He originally thought that he could be more fully prepared, but now it seems that he doesn't have much time left.
"Then speed up the plan. The equipment deployment has reached the final stage. Let everyone work overtime tonight. After the work is completed, everyone will evacuate Changkong City. If the Herrscher loses control, you will have no chance of survival."
"Then what should we do with the rescue plan for the survivors in Changkong City?" Amber asked.
"I'll let Youlandel handle this matter. Regardless of whether the person can be saved or not, the observation experiment must proceed as scheduled."
"I understand."
……
When Otto was preparing to make plans ahead of time, Su Jue temporarily left the battleship. This was an agreement he had reached with Otto before, and it would not restrict his freedom.
In order to ensure the stability of the experiment, Bianca did not follow him, but went to clear out the Honkai beasts in Changkong City. Su Jue, who was uneasy, walked alone on the Changkong Wall, looking at the nest built in the distance across the layered streets.
Before the experiment began, he wanted to take one more look at Kiana.
Although he had taken the Conquest Gem from Mei Raiden's body as planned, her body, which had been corroded for a long time, could not recover in a short period of time. If something unexpected happened, he could still save her.
In order to completely eliminate the spying of the will of collapse, Su Jue's main body has cut off the connection with his clone and fell into a deep sleep. The obstruction of Su Jue by the roots of the tree of imaginary numbers has become an important means for him to shield the will of collapse.
He stored most of his consciousness in this body and erased all memories of the final plan, leaving only the steps to implement the plan.
In other words, he is at his most vulnerable moment now.
Even so, he was not sure he could deceive the Honkai Will, so Su Jue decided to take the Herrscher's poison - emotion.
Compared to the emotionless Ruler, the Thousand Herrscher is a completely different extreme, a complex of countless emotions. All negative emotions will be amplified in the Thousand Herrscher and develop in the direction of collapse.
This state is even more deadly for Su Jue because his ability is hive consciousness, which amplifies various abilities while also amplifying those emotions.
And just like the original Thousand Herrscher, they longed for a queen who could lead them forward. Su Jue's initial situation was similar, and he even created the Qian Jue organization for this purpose, and there were signs of losing control, which led to the interference of the Honkai Will.
Fortunately, as his body got closer and closer to the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, Su Jue's self became clearer and clearer. He knew very well that the amplified emotions were false after all, and Kiana's affection for him was just an illusion.
However, it was precisely this point that allowed him to find a way to escape the surveillance of the Honkai Will.
The Ruler of this century will die miserably under the erosion of emotions, and Su Jue’s last script will be his own funeral.
……
The air in Changkong City, which had just rained, was still filled with moisture. After Su Jue passed by, the moisture was directly evaporated. He put his hand on his chest, and the plague gem was emitting a scorching temperature.
Unlike the previous pseudo-Flame Law Core, he is now a true Herrscher of Fire and is on the verge of losing control at any time.
Life has reached its end and he will face his own death.
Unfortunately, he didn't see Kiana in the end, and Su Jue was a little disappointed and could only turn around and leave.
After he left, under Delta's care, Kiana finally woke up. The first moment she woke up, she looked in the direction where Su Jue had stayed.
But she saw nothing, only a hazy mist hiding the back of the gray-haired boy.
Just as Su Jue was about to return to the warship, a thunderous roar suddenly sounded from a distant place. The sky in the distance was covered with dark clouds, and he immediately caught the familiar breath of the Herrscher.
"Herrscher of Thunder...it seems that the people of World Serpent have also entered the theater."
After hesitating for a moment and leaving a message for Yulandel, Su Jue flew towards the direction where the battle broke out.
……
"Damn, where did this Herrscher come from? Why is there no information about her in the World Serpent's database?" Raven pulled off the cloak that was charred by lightning and looked at Mei flying in the air with a bad face.
Mei was a little confused at this time. She had just said goodbye to Kiana and was still in a sad mood. She accidentally bumped into this inexplicable warship.
She originally wanted to talk it over nicely, but [Kiana] beside her just took action, and even said in a nice way: "You must have the majesty of the Queen of Thunder."
However, after fanning the flames, [Kiana] disappeared, leaving her alone to face the World Serpent's warships.
"This has nothing to do with me. I just provided the location of the Herrscher of the Void. And as you can see, we did find the Herrscher of the Void's followers before, and almost killed it..."
After a round of fighting, Mei was still ready to negotiate first, but Mo Ge's voice happened to reach her ears.
"Benares... Kiana. It seems that what Liuli said is right. Even if Kiana did nothing wrong, countless darkness will find her."
The kindness in her eyes completely disappeared, and her long sword pointed directly at the floating transport ship in front of her.
"This darkness needs the brilliant light of lightning to cleanse it."
Chapter 208: Leaking the Secret Again
"Wait, let's talk it over nicely!" Seeing Mei's unfriendly expression, Raven wanted to say something, but the sword of Naruto God had already slashed towards her.
With a loud bang, the entire airship sank 10 meters. A strong electric current spread along the hull. If the transport ship was not equipped with an anti-magnetic storm device, it would have sunk into the sea.
"Asshole!" Raven dodged the attack by somersaulting and raised the Seven Thunders of Purification in her hand to fight back, but when she aimed at the Herrscher of Thunder, this strange weapon turned into a slingshot.
Poor Raven hadn't reacted yet before Mei's attack had already arrived. She could only barely block it with her slingshot, and was knocked into the cabin, buried together with a pile of mechas.
The Third God's Key, made with the core of the Herrscher of Thunder from the last era, the Seven Thunders of Purification is a very special weapon. According to Raven's understanding, this is a weapon with [mood], and it will show completely different forms depending on the different users and usage environments.
But even Raven hadn't expected that after seeing their common origin, the Herrscher of Thunder, the Seven Purifiers would actually rebel on the spot. But now she had no time to think about this, she stuffed the slingshot into her pocket and barely blocked Mei's attack with her soul steel claws.
With a click, the crossbeam of the transport ship was cut off, the entire cabin tilted, and the height dropped again.
The cargo in the transport ship poured out along with the cabin, and just when Mei was about to pursue the victory, a dark red mist spread out.
The space inside the cabin was closed, and the fog spread quickly, soon covering the entire room. At the same time, Mei could clearly feel that the Houkai energy in her body was fading, and it was obviously the effect of the HSN potion.
"Unfortunately, this inhibitor is meaningless for a complete Herrscher." Even if the Honkai energy is disrupted, as long as the Herrscher core can connect to the imaginary space, the speed of recovery will be much faster than the speed of dissipation.
Possessing the Seven Thunders of Purification and being an awakener of the Holy Marks, Raven could be considered an S-class warrior with strong combat power. Unfortunately, he is now somewhat stretched to the limit.
"That damn guy ran too fast."
Raven wanted to get up and continue fighting, but his body suddenly became numb and he fell into a state of stiffness.
Along with the sound of footsteps, Mei Raiden's sword was already against her neck. "Tell me, which faction are you from?"
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Raven gave up resistance. She leaned against the wall and said helplessly, "Ms. Raiden Mei, I didn't expect that you would change so much after such a short time."
"Hmm? You've seen me?"
"Of course, it was you who saved the Herrscher of the Void from my gun in Sky City, but your combat power and mental quality at that time were far worse than they are now."
When Raven mentioned Sky City, Mei had already guessed the other party's power - the World Snake.
During the Anti-Entropy, Mei had already obtained information about the World Serpent from her companions, and naturally knew that this organization was the culprit behind the tragedy in Sky City.
"You are all a bunch of lunatics, experimenting on millions of people." The cold blade was already against Raven's neck. With just a little force, Mei could kill it.
"What? You don't dare to do it." Even though the knife was already at her neck, Raven didn't show any sign of being nervous. Having been a cadre in World Serpent for so long, she must have more than just these means of life-saving.
In an instant, a special energy wave poured into Raiden Mei's body. This was a weapon called the Staff of Yellow Springs, which could forcibly sever the connection between the Herrscher and the imaginary space.
The working principle is to interrupt the imaginary connection through special electromagnetic waves. Although it was completely defeated by Mei, Mei, who had just become a Herrscher, was still caught off guard and fell into the trap.
Mei immediately used her own ability to offset the weakening, but also allowed Raven to escape successfully.
After checking the remaining items on the warship, it was found that apart from a large number of mecha troops, there were only ordinary staff members. Mei did not want to kill indiscriminately, so after destroying all the mechas with electric current, she threatened the crew to directly occupy the ship.
After the battle was over, Kiana, who had been hiding aside, appeared again. Seeing Mei's unhappy expression, Liuli subconsciously reached out and stroked her hair.
"Mea Yi..."
Her eyes were dazed for a moment, as if she saw the same girl again. But she had been gone for so long, that weak world bubble should have been annihilated in the quantum sea.
Nourishes—
An arc of electricity appeared and bounced Liuli's hand away.
"Do not touch me."
"Yes, yes, yes." After returning to her usual style, Liuli took out a bunch of information from somewhere and threw it to Mei, "I know you want to ask about the information about the World Snake. I have prepared it for you."
"Can't you explain it verbally?"
"No, you are our leader now, you can't slack off. And the World Serpent is our number one enemy. If you don't understand, how can you protect Kiana from them?"
"Tsk." After making a click of the tongue, Mei continued to read the documents obediently.
……
Just after Mei occupied the ship, Mo Mo, who had slipped out earlier, curled up a smile on his face. He took out a walkie-talkie from his pocket and dialed Gray Snake's number.
"Mr. Gray Snake, we encountered a new Herrscher on our way to Changkong City and suffered heavy losses."
“……”The gray snake did not respond, but just listened silently.
"The third Herrscher, the Herrscher of Thunder, is currently in a very stable state and seems to have room for negotiation. I wonder if he can meet the Lord's requirements?"
After hearing Moth's report, Gray Snake's voice became a little gloomy. "I am a little curious about where you got the information from. The Lord never said what he needed."
Obviously, only the core cadres knew about the Paradise of the Past. Apart from Gray Snake, almost no one knew the complete story of the Thirteen Heroes. Kevin had never mentioned the fact that he was looking for a Herrscher who was suitable to enter the Paradise to anyone, not even him.
Then Mo'e's source of information is very strange. Although he was recruited because of his precise intelligence network, when some information that should not appear is known to the other party, it becomes a threat.
Knowing that the gray snake had already made up its mind to kill, the black moth had no intention of explaining.
"I said that this is my unique intelligence network. Anyway, you report the news and the Lord will naturally make his decision. In addition, it seems that Destiny is preparing to conduct experiments in Changkong City. With Destiny's interference, it is almost impossible to rely on me and Raven to take down the Herrscher of the Sky. If the Herrscher gets out of control..."
Before Mo E could finish his words, a cold voice suddenly came from the earphone.
"Stay tuned, I'll be there myself."
Kevin.
The most important person in the entire plan finally arrived.
Chapter 209 Threat
As the concentration of Honkai energy continued to increase, the water level in Changkong City was also gradually rising. The buildings that were originally exposed above the sea were also submerged by the backflow of seawater. At a glance, the entire city seemed to have partially disappeared.
The raven that had just escaped from the transport ship finally arrived and became nervous when he saw this scene.
Ever since Kevin returned from the Quantum Sea, the World Serpent has been moving more and more frequently. The primary goal of the Stigmata Project is to capture those Herrschers who are still active, so they are ready to bring the mecha troops only after Inkmoth provides the Herrscher of the Void information.
Originally, the operation to capture the Herrscher of the Sky was to be carried out by the Jackal and the Ink Moth. She had specifically applied to participate in this operation, but who knew that they were attacked by the Herrscher before they even arrived.
"Now that the Staff of Hell has been used, it's unlikely that we'll be able to successfully capture the Herrscher of the Void. We can only wait for support from the World Serpent." After judging the current situation, Raven immediately reported the situation to the Gray Snake, and he himself entered the city in a single-soldier vehicle.
After all, being an operator in World Snake is just a job, while taking care of those children is life.
“Hopefully it doesn’t get worse.”
After jumping off the individual carrier, Raven landed on the roof of a building in Changkong City. As for the staff and Moth on the transport ship, Raven could no longer care about them. Anyway, judging from Mei Raiden's appearance, she would not attack them.
Looking at the nest with splicing boards vaguely visible in the city, the raven's eyes were gloomy, "Damn Herrscher of the Sky, if she hadn't destroyed my island, the children should have left this damn place long ago."
After Raven left, Su Jue, who had just arrived here, walked out from the shadow of the building. He looked at Raven's departing back, frowning and thinking.
As a power inherited from the last era, Su Jue didn't know how many methods the World Snake had. Now that his memory was blocked, many things could not be observed from a God's perspective. Now he didn't know whether the arrival of the raven was good or bad, but thinking that Kiana was still in the nest, he immediately followed her out of worry.
Before the arrival of the raven, the Moth, which had been prepared, had already arrived in Changkong City in advance.
If you want to deceive the Honkai Will, you have to deceive yourself first. Therefore, Su Jue is not clear about the specific content of the plan, nor does he know the whereabouts of the puppet.
In the nest built by the shanty dwellers, Kiana, who had just woken up, still looked a little pale, but the erosion and cracks on her body had subsided a lot.
"Sister Kiana, are you feeling better?" Xiaokong walked in from outside with a cup of warm water.
During the Honkai attack just now, Kiana and Delta rescued these children from the Honkai more than once. These isolated little guys finally realized that not all people are bad people. This is the first time they have felt kindness other than that of their teacher.
"Well, I'm much better now." Kiana took the cup of water, but just moistened her dry lips slightly, and then fell into memories again.
"Then you should take a rest first, sister. We will call you after dinner." Looking at Kiana who was in a daze, Kong did not bother her any more. She took the extra cup and left the room with Mark Rabbit.
Kiana, lying alone on the bed, raised her hand and looked at the palm of her hand.
Raiden Mei, the Herrscher of Thunder, Kindred.
The flashing lightning was still vivid in Kiana's mind, and Mei's farewell look when she left made her feel a sharp pain.
Why is this so?
Jizi, Mei, Su Jue.
In order to save themselves from the darkness, everyone chooses to protect themselves in different ways, but they themselves, who should bear it the most, cannot change anything.
