I Am a Knight of Schicksal; Such Minor Wounds Need Not Concern Me (cont.)
Without anyone else to suppress Chiyou, Chi You gradually revealed the demeanor befitting an ancient ferocious beast.
In their eyes, Chiyou was still advancing as before, but that wasn't the focus right now.
The key question is—what exactly is going on with the energy that's constantly gathering in Chiyou's mouth?!
"A... an energy cannon???"
Looking at the crimson beam of light in Chiyou's mouth, even the battle-hardened Theresa felt her head throbbing more and more.
Theresa was just having a headache about how to approach Chiyou and activate the Divine Prayer Barrier.
But now, she feels she can't be so unrealistic.
At most, she would have some trouble dealing with this kind of energy cannon.
But now Lin Yu has been severely injured by her.
If Lin Yu were to be grazed by these energy cannons at this moment, she felt that even if Lin Yu survived, he would probably become a second-class disabled person.
"Ugh, this is so annoying! This big guy—I'll teach him a lesson he won't forget!"
After angrily uttering those words, Theresa poured Honkai Energy into Judah, attempting to further accelerate the speed of the Divine Key.
As for Lin Yu, who was staring at Chiyou, he truly felt that not only was his face cold, but his heart was also turning cold.
Because Theresa was controlling Judah, she didn't get a good look at the state of the beam of light coming from Chiyou's mouth.
However, Lin Yu's perception of Honkai Energy has become significantly clearer now, thanks to his cultivation of the Tai Xu Sword Qi.
He could sense that the energy in Chiyou's mouth seemed to have condensed into a beam of light, but in reality, the energy was not completely condensed together; it was separated.
In other words...
—This thing isn't a side attack, but a chaotic, spread-out map attack!
I'm done.
Does Chi You in the original Chiyou really have such a bizarre attack method?
It's just a background character, a background character who was easily suppressed in the original work!
Ah, no, I can't take it anymore.
Otto led the way in raising the Honkai- resurrected Herrscher, Cocolia led the way in creating Honkai to guide the awakening of Herrscher, and now World Serpent has also chosen to release the Judgment-class Honkai Beast for their plan.
Damn it, how come all the high-ranking members of the human anti -Honkai faction have gone to the Honkai side to become Honkai?
"Lin Yu, hold on tight to me, I'm going to speed up!"
"No, that's not right. Even if we speed it up, it's useless. So...!"
At this moment, Theresa's eyes sharpened, and she threw Lin Yu off the cross.
Then, with a light step, Theresa leaped into the air and, holding onto Judah's chains, brought him down heavily to the ground.
After the Oath of Judah is unleashed with zero fixed power, it will naturally require two hours of charging before it can be used a second time, just like other Divine Key.
In other words, if Theresa were to release the Divine Prayer Barrier here, it would not only weaken her and Lin Yu's vital signs, but also waste her strongest trump card.
After Theresa flung Lin Yu away, she could basically ensure that Lin Yu, who was flying away, would not be hit by Chiyou's light cannon.
Over the past fourteen years, Theresa has honed her skills and developed a youthful version of the Divine Prayer Barrier that differs from the complete Divine Prayer Barrier.
After releasing a portion of the power of the Oath of Judah, a golden light suddenly appeared around Theresa.
Unlike fourteen years ago, the countless enormous gilded gears did not appear beside Theresa.
As the light faded, all that remained in front of Theresa was a huge, gilded gear.
However, in Theresa's view, this move was enough to block Chiyou's attack.
The instant the beam was fired, it split into countless light projectiles, which hurtled towards Theresa's location.
However, under the power of the small Divine Prayer Barrier, these light projectiles were neutralized by Oath of Judah the moment they touched the barrier.
However, although this move blocked Chiyou's attack, it did not mean that Theresa was unharmed.
The Divine Prayer Barrier is a double-edged sword for its users, and androids like Theresa, who have Honkai Beast genes in their bodies, will naturally suffer even more damage from the Divine Prayer Barrier.
Even though the Divine Prayer Barrier she unleashed at this moment was the youth version of the Divine Prayer Barrier she had developed herself, the consumption and damage caused to her by this barrier should not be underestimated.
Fortunately, Chiyou's attack does not appear to be an ordinary move that can be used casually.
Judging from the fact that Chiyou stopped after his attack, it seems that it takes Chiyou some time to charge up before launching.
"Lin Yu—— "
Looking back at Lin Yu, whom she had thrown aside, Theresa suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Yu himself is fine.
Moreover, Fu Hua, Mei, Bronya, who had previously made contact with Theresa, also appeared on the battlefield.
Although as the headmistress, Theresa desperately didn't want her students to face such terrifying Honkai Beast, but...
Now that things have gotten out of control, she obviously can't continue being so dramatic.
"Class President Fu Hua."
After communicating with Kiana and the others using the brain chip, Bronya spoke to the people around her.
"Sister Kiana and Yuno said that they would come back here after they got S-rank Valkyrie Rita Roseweisse to a safe location."
"I see, but..."
Even if the two of them came back now, what could they possibly do?
To be honest, Fu Hua really doesn't want Kiana and Yuno, those two unstable bombs, to return to the battlefield.
Mei, who was beside her, was clearly not showing any serious problems at the moment; otherwise, she would have simply chosen to send Mei back to the Hyperion as well.
In this situation, it's no longer a question of whether or not to keep our cards hidden.
Even if I unleash the Shadow Knight, will I be able to solve the problem now?
The Inch Strike: Heaven Splitter poses a certain threat to ordinary Honkai Beast and even Herrscher.
The problem is that although Chiyou does not have the Imaginary Barrier that every Herrscher has, it is huge and has thick skin.
If you can't destroy its heart, which is the power source, in one blow, then even if you hurt it, it can quickly repair its injuries by constantly devouring the surrounding environment.
As for our combat strength, even if the reinforcements Theresa mentioned are Siegfried, our firepower is only enough for one attack.
Theresa is responsible for breaking through the defenses, Siegfried is responsible for shattering the opponent's heart with Flame-Chaser's Judgment, and Himeko can finish off the opponent with the Hyperion's main cannon after connecting to Nexus.
The firepower seems sufficient, but the problem is...
Will the plan go as smoothly as we expect?
"Lin Yu, you..."
Mei, who had just arrived at the scene, was very worried when she saw Lin Yu's battered and bruised appearance.
You're covered in blood!
"Ah, it's just a minor injury."
At this moment, Lin Yu turned around and glanced at Mei before speaking to Chiyou.
"I am a knight of Schicksal, such a minor injury is nothing to worry about."
After all, if we don't get rid of Chiyou, I estimate I'll just die a violent death.
The value of a ten-pull is... truly terrifying.
"Second Lieutenant Lin Yu."
After examining Lin Yu's injuries, Fu Hua Lin Yu to him.
"You've already tried your best. Now, what's next—"
"You don't want me to leave the battlefield, do you?"
Looking up at the colossal beast ahead, Lin Yu chuckled and asked in return.
"Run away now? Where can we run to?"
"But now you're staying here..."
Looking at the gauntlets on Lin Yu's fist, Fu Hua said irritably.
"What use is a B-Class knight like you staying here in the face of Judgment-class Honkai Beast?"
After Lin Yu's gaze drifted to Mei and Bronya, Fu Hua immediately added.
"Mei, as Herrscher, already possesses formidable strength, while Bronya, as an intelligence analyst, is far more valuable to you than you are currently on the field."
"Yes, well said. But..."
After fixing his gaze on Mei, Lin Yu said calmly.
"It is an indisputable fact that Mei cannot perfectly control the power of Herrscher."
Even so, she is still much more reliable than you, who have expended a lot of energy and are already covered in wounds!
Fu Hua Lin Yu, who had just realized Lin Yu's thoughts, spoke to him with a cold face.
"I was the captain appointed by my superiors for this operation in the Nine Nether!"
"Second Lieutenant Lin Yu, do you intend to disobey your superior's orders?!"
"Oh, no. It's just..."
After glancing at Theresa ahead, Lin Yu shrugged helplessly.
"Although I haven't given up my surname, I am now indeed a member of the Apocalypse clan."
"You want me to watch the patriarch fight to the death here, and then turn around and run away? Ha, I think in Bishop Otto's eyes, that's probably an unforgivable betrayal."
"I told you, I'm terrified of dying, and that's why I can't leave here."
After hearing Lin Yu's words, Fu Hua fell silent.
Theoretically speaking, Otto, being a smart man, certainly knew that Lin Yu, a B-Class knight, would be of no use against a Judgment-class opponent.
The problem is that Otto was never a rational person.
As someone who has known Otto for a long time, Fu Hua felt that Lin Yu's words were hard to deny.
If Theresa were to die on the battlefield for this reason, there's a high probability that Otto go insane.
As the king of the underworld, Otto's madness would bring disaster to the entire world.
Even if Lin Yu survives the battle against Chiyou, he might still be eliminated by Otto in the future.
However, on the other hand, Fu Hua wouldn't actually believe such a stupid statement as 'Lin Yu is afraid of death'.
He clearly wanted to find an opportunity to gain merit, and if he could stay on the scene or even find an opportunity to launch a counterattack against Chiyou, Lin Yu would obviously gain more merit.
With more achievements, Lin Yu will naturally gain higher military ranks and better equipment, making it easier for him to take revenge on the Honkai.
From this perspective, driving Lin Yu is no longer an option.
Ugh, this is giving me a headache. What should I do now?
"Lin Yu."
Seeing Lin Yu who didn't want to leave, Mei asked Lin Yu softly.
"Do you have a way to deal with the enemy? If you don't, then staying here is pointless."
Seeing Mei's worried expression, Lin Yu gently patted Mei shoulder.
"Of course I do, but—I need you to lend me your power."
On the other side, after catching her breath for a few seconds, Theresa forced herself to endure the excruciating pain in her body and started moving again.
At the same time, she also heard footsteps.
"... Is it inappropriate for you to come at this time?"
"Ha, I watched Kiana push her wheelchair away all the way, what am I afraid of at a time like this?"
Having reached Theresa's side, Siegfried, who had already drawn his twin pistols, spoke confidently to his old friend.
