What struck him as even more odd was that Ji Lin, who was supposed to be dealt with by everyone inside Chi You's body in the original story, was now dressed in a black outfit, standing atop Chiyou's head, looking down at the three below with an evil smile.

I used to think that after the system disappeared, all I would have to face was Black Ji Lin.

But now it seems that Chiyou, who can unleash a substantial shockwave as soon as he starts to act, is clearly Chiyou after his seal has been broken!

Fu Hua and the others weren't here at all, Rita didn't touch Chiyou's body either, and Xing Mar was heading in a different direction from us, so she shouldn't be here either.

So who exactly released Chiyou?

"Kiana, Yuno, back off! If this guy starts moving, we definitely can't beat him!"

"I know without you telling me!"

Behind Lin Yu, the two men had already begun frantically retreating, pulling the wheelchair along.

However, facing such a terrifying behemoth, both of them knew that if the distance between the four of them and the behemoth was this small, they would eventually be caught up by it.

"Oh? They've retreated?"

Ji Lin, perched atop the three figures, watched Kiana and Yuno retreat and narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

"Very well, I didn't originally intend to attack the two of you. But..."

"—Young man of Shenzhou, why do you not avoid him?"

At this moment, Ji Lin, high above, spoke arrogantly to Lin Yu below.

"If you leave the Xuanyuan Sword behind, I might spare your life out of consideration for our shared Shenzhou heritage."

"Ha, thank you very much, senior from Shenzhou."

Feeling the Xuanyuan Sword vibrating incessantly in his hand, Lin Yu glanced at the people behind him and sighed helplessly.

"But—only a fool would listen to you."

"You old bastard, if you want it, come and get it yourself, ruaruarua."

After saying that, Lin Yu immediately turned and ran, catching up with the two people in front of him.

"Wow, senior, you actually..."

Looking at Kiana's surprised face, Lin Yu spoke to Kiana very solemnly.

"I've emphasized this countless times—I, Lin Yu, am really afraid of dying."

"Do you really expect a coward to stay behind and cover our retreat at a time like this?"

Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, the two exchanged a glance and simultaneously began nodding frantically at Lin Yu.

"Tsk, stop it, I'm not that stupid."

Seeing their reactions, Lin Yu felt truly helpless.

No one believes the truth he tells, but everyone believes his lies.

I really don't know what to say, this world... is truly insane.

Now that Chiyou has awakened, to defeat Chiyou we must first retreat to the outside and contact Theresa and the others. Only with the strength of the Hyperion and Theresa can we have a chance of winning.

But now... it's a race against time.

Chiyou was large in size, but that doesn't mean he was actually slow.

In the original book Theresa mentions that the speed is not fast, probably in comparison to the Hyperion.

In reality, it would only take Chiyou three hours to travel from the Nine Nether to the Shenzhou Continent while eating, which is actually not slow.

At least, catching up with Lin Yu and the others in the short term is not a problem at all.

Just then, Lin Yu suddenly heard his long-disrupted communicator start ringing again.

Huh? What a coincidence! You managed to fix it for me in time?

After connecting the communicator, Lin Yu heard Fu Hua's voice through it.

"Lin Yu, Bronya has finally fixed our communication network. Now, listening to this voice, you..."

"—It shouldn't be near Chiyou, right?"

.

Chapter 112. Didn't we agree you wouldn't have any more children?

"You..."

"—It shouldn't be near Chiyou, right?"

After Fu Hua finished speaking, she already had the answer in her heart.

The noise and booming sounds coming from Lin Yu's side already said it all.

The panting sounds emanating from Lin Yu and the others as they sped along further confirmed her suspicions.

"Don't even think about it. Chiyou is still chasing us. And the legendary hero Ji Lin is not only alive, but has become Chiyou's accomplice."

"Don't come this way yet. Go contact Branch Leader Theresa and have her bring the Hyperion in!"

"Ah, about this."

Looking at Mei, who was contacting Theresa on the other side, Fu Hua said to Lin Yu.

"The Branch Leader is also communicating with us. She said she will bring the Divine Key and charge this way. We are discussing it, but judging from the coordinates, we should be very close to you."

"Moreover, she brought a powerful reinforcement with her."

Powerful reinforcements!

In 2014, there were only a handful of players strong enough to compete. Could it be that...?

Having made a certain guess, Lin Yu suddenly spoke to Fu Hua.

"Then let's retreat first, and we can discuss other matters after you meet with us!"

After saying this, Lin Yu voluntarily ended the communication with Fu Hua.

In 2014, he was strong enough to know Theresa —who else could it be but Siegfried and Durandal?

Moreover, Durandal would have arrived much earlier; she would have already taken action and certainly wouldn't have abandoned Rita alone.

In that case, who else could it be besides Siegfried?

Siegfried himself was self-aware; he knew that he would stimulate the Sirin personality within Kiana, which is why he distanced himself from Kiana.

But Kiana didn't know that!

The little girl is still confused and has no idea why Siegfried abandoned her on the snowfield and ran away.

If they happen to talk about Siegfried later and Kiana starts clamoring to see him, then things will become much more complicated.

Rather than revealing too much information through excessive communication, Lin Yu would rather think carefully about how they should escape from Chiyou's pursuit.

"There's no other way— Yuno A-Meng, can't you come up with some new gadgets?!"

Hearing Lin Yu's call, Yuno was pushing Rita to sprint wildly, said to Lin Yu in an annoyed tone.

"Senior, you think too highly of me!"

"Believe in yourself, you can do it—use your imagination! GO!"

Hearing Lin Yu speak to her in such an unusually passionate tone, Yuno could only helplessly place her hands on the ground and begin to mobilize the Herrscher Authority within the group, attempting to create some new items.

In fact, after she mastered the Herrscher Authority, she was indeed able to create some complex structures, just as Lin Yu had said.

Well... oh well, let's get to work.

In front of everyone, Yuno used her Herrscher Authority to create a model car made of wooden wheels and blocks.

"Wow, Yuno, you're amazing!"

Seeing that Yuno had actually created the vehicle and Kiana had instantly braked, Kiana felt that the future was bright.

"But I have a question, where is the engine of this car?"

After Kiana asked the question, Kiana suddenly noticed that Lin Yu and Yuno were both looking at her at the same time.

Under the watchful eyes of the two men, Kiana instinctively sensed that something was wrong.

"Why are you all staring at me?"

"Kiana, you need to understand one thing: your domain, the White Comet Ribbon, has propulsion devices."

"But my senior needs rest, and I need to use my power to keep this vehicle's frame from collapsing. So..."

"Alright, alright, I understand!"

At this moment, Kiana watched as the two helped Rita into the car, and then placed her hands on the back of the vehicle.

Then, Kiana took a deep breath and, relying on the monstrous strength of the Kaslana clan and the thrusters of her Domain Armor, White Comet Ribbon, propelled the wooden cart forward at breakneck speed.

Looking at the scene around him, Lin Yu felt a strong sense of déjà vu.

It feels like just a month ago...

—I feel like I'm being hunted Honkai by the Honkai too.

Sigh, if we hadn't lacked the Quantum Teleportation System mentioned in the 'Anti-Entropy Invasion Chapter,' and the higher-ups had simply sent us a spaceship, we wouldn't be in such a panic.

Kiana's reliance on explosive power to push the cart is ultimately not the right path. In fact, to ensure she has enough power, I have to suppress her Herrscher Persona through my subconscious and prevent her from overworking.

The plan is roughly in place, but everything will have to wait until we meet up with Fu Hua and the others before we can proceed.

Ugh, so annoying.

If I can resolve the Chiyou peacefully, I will definitely find out who is behind this incident.

Cocolia and Otto are troublesome enough, but now a new human traitor has emerged to sabotage us.

Kevin hasn't even come out of the sea yet...

Wait a minute, give me a little while.

If I remember correctly, in the original story, Chiyou's corpse was eaten by Kevin.

Could it be that the World Serpent, which should have been lying dormant, has unexpectedly surfaced ahead of schedule?

While it's understandable that the World Serpent would interfere in the affairs of the Nine Nether in order to present Chiyou's corpse as sashimi to Kevin, however...

—Where's the original work? The original work in the simplified version?

What do I care about the rationality of how the world works?

Give me back the original storyline in easy mode! (╯‵□′)╯┻━┻

On the other hand, after Lin Yu abruptly hung up the communication, Fu Hua didn't think much of it.

After all, Lin Yu and the others were already thankful to have survived in the face of the awakened Chiyou.

Even if Fu Hua Lin Yu and the other six were tied together, they probably wouldn't be able to subdue that rampaging beast.

Severely injured and weakened, Fu Hua can no longer even use her Sword God technique, thus posing a limited threat to Chiyou.

Although Mei can use the power of the Herrscher of Thunder, if she overuses it, no one can guarantee that the Herrscher of Thunder not attack them first.

After all, both the Herrscher of Thunder and Chiyou belong to the Honkai faction. They may not fight each other, but they will definitely want to eliminate the Honkai's enemies.

And Kiana...

Forget about it. If she 'awakens,' then Chiyou won't have to worry, but Shenzhou will basically be close to being destroyed.

Bronya and Yuno, one can only be responsible for intelligence analysis, and the other's power to create plants would probably be like a tickle to Chiyou.

As for the so-called Herrscher's Poison...

Given Chiyou's size, Yuno were to inject the same poison that could take down Theresa into Chiyou body, it would probably be like a mosquito bite to an ordinary person—at most, it would just cause a bump.

After all, in the face of an absolute power gap, even the most powerful mechanism is useless.

The only one left is Lin Yu... No matter how good he is at fighting, he doesn't have the power to kill Judgment-class opponent in a single battle.

If Lin Yu truly possessed such power, then Otto should have been wary of and plotted against Lin Yu, rather than actively seeking to cultivate him.
