"Unappetizing……"
The running water quietly came forward and wiped his face, gently brushing over the place where he had just been injured, as if comforting him, as if caring about him.
However, Xi Wang gently slapped it away, showing some impatience and disgust, and the water just fell silently and returned to the puddles on the ground.
[Tsk——Done, let’s go! ]
One of them had been hiding at the end. The "individual" hiding by the wall curled its lips in annoyance, looked at Xi Wang with resentment and fear, and then called on the other "individuals" to leave... Taking advantage of the time when the other "individuals" were fighting with Xi Wang, it used its own ability to squeeze a gap in the wall, enough for people to barely pass through.
only……
"Want to escape?"
The predator-like gaze swept over the next moment.
He gripped the dark sword tightly, dragged it slowly, and then slashed at them from bottom to top.
The tip of the sword cut through the shallow water on the ground, causing ripples. When the tip of the sword left the shallow water, the water moved along with the sword, and then transformed into a huge water blade, attacking them straight away, cutting the unsuspecting "individuals" directly in half.
However, this huge water blade also cut into the alloy wall, leaving a long and narrow gap. One of the "individuals" did not care to be panic, and immediately seized the opportunity to use his ability to forcibly enlarge the gap in the wall. Then the surviving "individuals" began to cover each other and evacuate in an orderly manner.
"not good……"
Kevin took a step forward and wanted to chase after the fleeing Herrschers, but was stopped by Mei.
"Kevin, don't go"
Mei spoke softly, and at the same time her eyes remained on Xi Wang, never moving away, as if she was confirming something.
"Hopefully he... needs an outlet for his emotions, so let's give it to him first."
"........."
Xi Wang seemed to have heard her words. He glanced at her, then took a step silently, moving step by step in the direction they left.
Hmm? Those "individuals" who blocked Xiwang's retreat and those "individuals" who were unfortunate enough not to leave? They had already been beheaded by the thin, whip-like current that appeared in the shallow water, and their bodies dissolved silently into the water.
As he said, this was just a "hunt" and there was no battle at all.
In the metal corridor leading to the outside world, Xi Wang walked slowly, dragging his sword.
He was obviously walking very slowly, just taking one step at a time, but he was able to catch up with them even though they were running at full speed.
The water flowed quietly under the feet, and the damp smell soon filled the entire corridor.
[Disperse... Gubo?! ]
An "individual" shouted. It was so panicked that it even forgot that they could communicate directly in the [Meeting]. But when it shouted, several bubbles came out of its mouth.
Yes, those are the bubbles that appear in water.
There was still air around them and the water under their feet had just reached the soles of their shoes, but at this moment they felt as if they were submerged in water.
Their breathing became difficult, their movements became slow, and an inexplicable pressure began to emerge, as if it was going to crush their bodies. Even their bodies inexplicably felt a sense of "buoyancy", as if they would "float up" at any time.
"Prey should look like prey."
Xi Wang's voice came faintly from behind, accompanied by a wave of sword energy. The "individual" that was unable to dodge was quickly killed and then quietly dissolved by the water on the ground.
【You (expletive)...】
Some of the "individuals" turned around and fought back to stop Xi Wang, while some of the "individuals" continued to escape. This was what they had already discussed in the [meeting].
But... when the "individuals" that were blocking Xi Wang turned around, they found that Xi Wang had already appeared in front of them at some point.
He held the sword high, the water flowing behind him like waves, moving forward against the ceiling, and then... swung it down at them.
They couldn't even put up any resistance as the countless streams of water knocked them unconscious with great impact force. Some of them even had their chests crushed by the water and died instantly.
Then, their bodies floated silently in the flowing water, turning into foam bit by bit and dissolving in the water.
【………】
The "individual" running ahead didn't dare to look back, or even speak, and could only silently feel the voices disappearing one after another in the [meeting].
But soon, the hair on their bodies stood up again, and that terrifying feeling came over them again. They could even feel his predatory pupils staring at them.
He is coming...He is coming!
Poof——
One of the "individuals" was thinking of stopping to stop Xi Wang. This was the result they had agreed upon in the [meeting]. But in the next moment, the body of another "individual" next to it instantly split from the inside, and blood soaked its entire body... It could even see that the flying eyeball of the "individual" looked at itself at the last moment, with fear still lingering in its pupils.
……what happened?
What's going on?! Why is this happening?!
They are the Herrschers! They are the strong ones! Even Kevin was exhausted by us! Even Mei, who was wearing the Blank Key, was eroded by Honkai because of us. She is running out of time. If we force her to connect a Herrscher Core, she might die!
It doesn't matter if they all die! Human civilization will be doomed! They will never have the capital to fight against the collapse!
But why...why?!
Why did such a guy suddenly appear! A guy who should have died long ago! He came to hunt us with a breath similar to ours and a breath full of destruction? !
Why? !
Just as it was about to turn around and fight back in anger, it found Xi Wang's dangerous golden-red pupils staring at it.
At this moment, time seemed to be stretched.
It clearly saw Xiwang opening his mouth, and a blue translucent shark jumped out of the water, its bloody mouth already open, and the shark's shadow already covering it.
Then, Xi Wang closed his lips and teeth, and the shark bit its sharp teeth. Its body was instantly bitten to pieces, and blood splattered everywhere, smearing on the corridor.
To him, this was really just a "hunt" - this was the last thought left before its consciousness dissipated.
Then, the broken body fell down weakly and turned into foam in the water. The splashing blood faded away quietly and dissolved into the water, leaving only a [Herrser Core] lying quietly in the place.
"........."
Xi Wang wiped the corner of his mouth silently, and then continued to move forward, neither hurried nor slow.
…………
………………
There are fewer and fewer voices in [the meeting]…
[Anyone else? Is there anyone else who can speak? ]
It tremblingly asked in the [Meeting], but the only response it received was silence.
No... no more?!
Its expression became terrified, and it couldn't help but quicken its pace of escape again.
[No... No, I must survive, I must survive! ]
It muttered to itself.
[Now I am the only one left... I must stay alive... I must stay alive to avenge "us"... Oh, right! A flying machine! With my ability, I can use a flying machine to leave directly! Go back to human society! Kill those people they are protecting! Kill them all!]
[We must make them pay a price a thousand or ten thousand times greater than “us”! ]
bang——
It slammed open the door, rushed to the square where the aircraft were parked in the heavy rain, and jumped directly into an aircraft. Regardless of the bad weather, it put its hand on the control panel. Its power began to spread, quickly analyzing the aircraft's system and starting it up.
[Quick…quick…]
It talked to itself anxiously, as if this could ease the fear in its heart.
I don’t know if it was lucky, but when its aircraft took off and even flew to a certain height, Xi Wang didn’t chase it.
「That’s… That’s great. I escaped…」
It was a little relieved.
tick-
A drop of rain fell on its face, causing it to freeze.
tick-
The rain penetrated the glass and hit its face. It was obviously rain that could directly penetrate the reinforced glass, but when it touched it, it turned back into ordinary water, with only a slightly damp smell and a slightly cool temperature.
Like a prank, like a mockery.
The rain seemed to have gained incomparable impact force at this moment. Even the reinforced glass on the Fire Moth aircraft could be penetrated by the rain. Even the special outer shell of the Fire Moth aircraft could be left with a hole by the rain. However, when the rain fell on its face, it could only wet its face.
What is this? A joke?
It sat in the driver's seat in a daze, without any reaction to the rain that kept hitting its body... it no longer wanted to think.
Because in front of it, in front of the aircraft flying in the air, a huge, azure, translucent whale leaped out leisurely, just like leaping from the sea, showing off its huge and beautiful body, and then leisurely turned sideways and slowly fell down.
[You must be joking...]
Looking at the "whale" falling rapidly in front of it, it couldn't help but mutter to itself, in a daze, as if it had lost the ability to think.
boom! ! !
A huge flame emerged in the air covered by rain, and was soon obscured by the rain. Even the sound of the explosion was drowned in the rain.
Snapped--
A [Herrser Core] fell and was caught by Xiwang.
"…Have you finished reading it?"
Xi Wang looked back indifferently in the rain and looked at the two people standing in the building to avoid the heavy rain.
"........."
"Nothing to say?"
"You... are still looking, right?"
"As you can see, I am indeed back."
Xi Wang threw the [Herrserker Core] in his hand to the other party, and then inserted the dark sword in his hand into the ground.
The predator-like gaze sweeps over, giving people a strong sense of discomfort, but this feeling will soon fade away. Although the discomfort still exists, at least people will not have the illusion that "they will be eaten at any time."
"Fusion Warrior-Wang, reporting to you, Dr. May, Kevin."
He responded in a calm and friendly tone.
"So, can you let me see them? I... kind of miss them."
Chapter 48: It is happiness to be able to see each other
[You are back on land. Although you ran into the Herrscher right after you came back, this is a good thing for you. At least you can gain the trust of others through your actions, and it can also slightly relieve the pent-up emotions in your heart.]
[The rainstorm covering the island soon dissipated. Under the bright sunshine, you followed Mei and Kevin to Velvet's workshop and had a conversation with them there... They were indeed still a little wary of you, but you didn't care and just responded to their questions one by one.]
[For example, how did you survive, the special conditions in the "ocean", how did you come back from the "ocean", why did you become like this... and, the final outcome of Hen]
[Although the process was a bit tortuous, fortunately, Mei and Kevin finally confirmed your identity and welcomed your return. At the same time, they officially determined Hen's status as "dead"]
[It’s just that because of your current special situation, you are ordered not to leave the island. After all, the extremely terrifying collapse emanating from you can make many people nervous.]
[You don't care. Right now you want to see Alicia and Sakura more.]
[Mei said that they were both on their way here, and you could rest on the island for a while. After you learned about this, you also said that you wanted to go see Grayshu.]
[The “deepest place” is right here. You promised to come back to visit her, so you must fulfill your promise now.]
[You walked into the "Deepest Place" again, and faced Graysh's pure gaze without any complaints, and her question "Brother Wang, have you come to see me?" You just gently and slowly walked forward and hugged her in your arms]
[“Well, Grayshu, I came to see you.” You responded.]
[Gresh, who got the answer, hugged you gently in return, and said that your "color" was a little different from what she had seen before, and it became a little wet, like water.]
[Grayshut also gave you the painting she had drawn. You looked at the painting that was covered with various colors, and you could only vaguely perceive another picture hidden under the various colors. You were speechless for a moment... but in the end you still accepted it.]
[You met Aponia and Kosmo again. You were quite friendly to both of them. Although Aponia always maintained the attitude of "wanting to say something but saying nothing in the end" to you, you didn't care. On the contrary, it was surprising to see Kosmo here... According to him, he came here for some personal reasons, and it just happened to be a good opportunity for him to take care of Grayshue.]
[It seems that Gray Xiu is living well here, which makes you feel a little relieved... At least Hen's daughter is living well, that's good.]
[You stayed with Gresh for a while. During this time, Kosmo and Aponia reminded you several times not to stay with Gresh for too long, otherwise Gresh would be stained with your "color" like a pure white canvas, changing her personality and even further affecting her... But in the end, you still stayed with Gresh.]
[It's not for any other reason. It's simply because Grace doesn't want you to leave. In Grace's words, she likes the "color" on your body. Now it's wet, like watercolor paint, and she likes it very much.]
[This statement left Aponia and Kosmo helpless, and they could only let Grayshue do what she wanted... And in the end, it was strange that, apart from frequently painting some ocean scenes or some marine creatures, Grayshue herself did not have any obvious changes, which made people feel relieved but also a little surprised.]
