Good death, pop the champagne! (cont.)
The final obstacle has been removed, so now...
After placing Bronya under the tree and notifying the Schicksal rescue team to protect Bronya, Yuno, without saying a word, immediately spread her pair of jet-black wings, just like the Herrscher of Death before her.
Now that we've already used the power of this core, let's go for it.
Kill Cocolia, then go help your senior, and finally suppress 'her' inside the core.
Time is running out, so I can't afford to delay any longer.
I've already caused trouble for my senior twice; this time, I can't afford to hold him back any further.
I've been waiting for this day for so long, and now...
—Cocolia, I'm here to kill you.
Facing God at this moment, Lin Yu truly felt a pang of regret.
He didn't regret now having to fight this giant robot.
His main regret was that he had given Cocolia's life to Yuno all to enjoy alone.
Humans are truly strange creatures.
Even though Lin Yu killed countless Joyce Clones, he didn't immediately kill the clone child inside the Father who was in immense pain.
Because his face showed a pain that other Joyce Clone didn't have, I actually felt sorry for him.
If that's the reason, then I've really become a boring person again.
I can now truly feel that I have become stronger.
Because I've become stronger, I have more leeway and can take more actions when facing enemies, which is a good thing.
But now, I'm actually hesitant to take action for some trivial reasons?
This state of mind makes me feel like I have power but can't use it.
Because I became stronger, I became weaker?
That's fucking stupid.
My state of mind has developed such a big problem without me even realizing it.
I really feel sorry for him, so we should launch a strong attack.
The life of this clone is precious, but what about the lives of other innocent civilians around him?
Eliminating the enemy as quickly as possible would not only stop the clone imp from being tortured further, but also minimize the damage the Father would cause to the surrounding area. This is the correct approach.
It seems I really need to relax for a few days after this fight.
Having immense power but lacking the mental state to match it will inevitably lead to serious problems sooner or later.
This time, it was because the combination of God the Father and this little devil wasn't strong enough that I had time to reflect and make a judgment.
If I encounter a sufficiently powerful enemy next time, I could be defeated and killed if I hesitate for even a moment during the battle.
Seeing his father about to punch him, Lin Yu actually stopped dodging.
Just as the Father's fist was about to strike Lin Yu used the armor creation ability of [Zero Knight. Moonshadow] to create a huge gauntlet and put it on his right hand, blocking the attack with this giant gauntlet.
"Hey, after observing for thirty seconds, I can probably make a judgment about the direction of energy flow."
"This thing looks huge, but once you break through the key parts, you shouldn't be able to move."
The child who was manipulating the Father at this moment naturally couldn't understand what Lin Yu, who was talking to himself, was saying.
Controlled by the combat program set up by Cocolia, he only knew that if he didn't defeat the enemy in front of him, he would continue to be tormented by the program transmitted from the chip in his brain.
When a child, who is terrified of pain, notices that the enemy in front of him is no longer dodging, he naturally feels that an opportunity has come.
After failing to smash the enemy with his first punch, the child naturally and decisively threw down his other fist as well.
However, any warrior with even a modicum of skill would not dare to get too close to Lin Yu at this moment.
After all, Lin Yu's decision to remain stationary wasn't because he was out of his mind to take the attack head-on, but because...
—The move he was preparing to use to instantly kill the enemy required time to charge up.
After discovering the enemy's key parts, Lin Yu directly fused Honkai Energy and magic power into his fingertips.
This time, however, he was worried that his output was not enough, so for the first time, he added his third special energy, [Dimensional Force], to his killing move that pierced through the enemy.
When Lin Yu experimented in his dream before, he had also tried to launch an attack that combined three types of energy.
Unfortunately, after launching his attack, Lin Yu found that he couldn't control the fusion of the three powers. He would often blow his own hand apart due to the energy before he could even hit the enemy.
However, ever since that experience in the illusion, Lin Yu felt that the pearl within his body had undergone some changes.
The Dimensional Force emitted by the unawakened pearls was just ordinary Dimensional Force.
However, although the [Swaying Scales] has not yet fully awakened, the Dimensional Force it emits has gained an additional characteristic.
After fusing this Dimensional Force with magic and Honkai Energy, Lin Yu discovered that the three forces, which were originally incompatible, actually maintained a delicate balance under the impetus of the new Dimensional Force.
So that's how it is. The Dimensional Force unleashed by the [Swaying Scales] also has the ability to 'balance'?
The third power has been fully integrated, so from now on...
Ha, we can deal with the future later. For now, it's time to end all of this.
In the next instant, Lin Yu unleashed the fused energy cannon directly at the enormous enemy before him.
"Explosive Light Kill Cannon!"
The moment Lin Yu uttered those words, the light cannon had already struck the Father's body.
After the battle with the Herrscher of Finality in the illusion, Lin Yu had already figured out a variant of the Light Kill Cannon.
This time, however, because the enemy's energy shield was not strong enough to be weakened by the Phantasm Lantern Barrier, Lin Yu omitted the weakening step in the three steps of weakening, penetrating, and exploding, and directly let the Light Kill Cannon explode inside the Father after hitting it.
As the three energies flowed through the Father's body, the Father, who had already undergone anti- Honkai Energy treatment, was directly attacked by the other two energies that were injected into his body, which severely damaged his internal structure.
Even if the cloned child hasn't completely lost his ability to move, with his operating system also damaged, no matter how ferocious his expression is, it can't change one fact.
After the colossal Heavenly Father was instantly defeated by Lin Yu, he could no longer defeat the enemy as instructed.
As the Father crashed to the ground, Lin Yu even saw the child thrown out by the powerful impact, landing on a bruised and battered body.
However, in the next second, looking at the child, Lin Yu felt his killing intent, which had just been suppressed, suddenly surged countless times.
This murderous intent was certainly not directed at the child in front of him.
The only person Lin Yu wants to kill right now is Cocolia, who is not here but has manipulated children to do this.
At this moment, the clone child, who was being manipulated by Cocolia, actually crawled towards Lin Yu despite having broken bones in his body.
The child's eyes were filled with confusion, yet he still harbored no hostility towards Lin Yu whatsoever.
However, due to Cocolia's orders, the child had to do everything in his power to defeat the enemy before him.
After walking up to the child, Lin Yu released Phantasm Lantern Barrier on him, instantly altering Lin Yu perception and sending him into a deep sleep.
After using Powerful Healing Technique to heal the child's injuries, Lin Yu looked at Siegfried, who was leaning against him.
Considering that Siegfried is still in a coma and it is unknown whether he can take the medicine, Lin Yu did not use the full recovery potion on Siegfried for the time being.
Since the system had already instructed him to drink it, he figured it was better to avoid the injection.
As for this brat...
After placing the child next to Siegfried, Lin Yu rushed off in the direction of Yuno without looking back.
Based on Lin Yu's speculation, this child might be Welt's adopted son, who appeared in the Post-Honkai Odyssey.
Returning to the Anti-Entropy conservative camp can be considered one of his predetermined fates.
Since they had no personal grudges against each other, Lin Yu naturally wouldn't vent his anger towards Cocolia on him.
Cocolia, you will die here today.
Only...
—I will never let you die so easily now!
Cocolia, who was fleeing at this moment, finally recognized the identity of the girl with wings on her back.
Damn it, is this little girl Yuno, the one who was taken back to Changkong City by Schicksal and transformed into the Fourth Herrscher?
How could Otto so easily let her start acting on her own? Has he really gone mad?!
But now, regardless of what Otto really thinks, Cocolia has to face one fact.
She'll be caught up by Yuno in a little while.
What makes Cocolia even more nervous is that she currently has no means to hinder the other party.
In terms of combat strength, if A-Class can defeat Herrscher... then there's something wrong with this A-Class!
Moreover, now that the Quantum Teleportation System has failed, she has not only lost her means of escape, but also her last resort of summoning her subordinates to buy time.
This situation is undoubtedly a dead end.
How could Cocolia now willingly die at the hands of a Herrscher?
At that moment, Cocolia turned around and glanced at Yuno behind her, and suddenly saw a look of pain flash across Yuno's face.
Hmph, just as I thought.
Because of the resentment she harbored towards me, her spirit was Honkai and broken.
If she wants to continue using the power of the Herrscher, she will risk completely transforming into Herrscher again.
But if she chooses to give up using the power of the Herrscher, then—I still have a glimmer of hope!
At this moment, Cocolia took out a potion that Gray Serpent had given her and plunged it directly into her neck.
As a partner of Gray Serpent, Cocolia naturally obtained Honkai Beast transformation potions from Gray Serpent as well.
Moreover, after obtaining the potion, Gray Serpent warned Cocolia that not only would the potion only have a three-minute effect, but after the effect wore off, the probability of not being able to turn back into a human was ridiculously high.
However, for Cocolia at this moment, she has no other choice.
If she didn't kill the enemy, she would be killed by the enemy. So rather than waiting to die, she might as well—
"Holy crap, so this is how the Honkai Beast that attacked Himeko- sensei before was created."
High in the sky, Yuno looked down at Cocolia with a cold killing intent flashing in her eyes.
"In the end, you don't even want to be human anymore... This ugly appearance actually suits you quite well."
Cocolia, who was ready to take a gamble, successfully transformed into Emperor-class Honkai Beast.
Then, in the next instant...
Cocolia was taken down by Yuno in one move before she could take any action.
In desperation, Cocolia was determined to fight to the death, but because she was in such a hurry, she forgot many things.
The Emperor-class is inferior to the Judgment-class, and the Judgment-class is not necessarily comparable to the Herrscher.
Moreover, even if she completes the transformation, it will only be a low-quality, artificial version of the Emperor-class.
Even if Yuno cannot fully control the power of the Herrscher, how could she possibly lose to such an enemy?
As the Withering Black Mist eroded Cocolia's body, Cocolia had never felt so acutely that the flame of her life was slowly fading away.
However, after the Withering Black Mist completely destroyed her Honkai Beast body, Yuno, who had already landed in front of Cocolia, withdrew the Withering Black Mist and even used her Authority of Creation to heal a lot of Cocolia's injuries.
"What... do you... mean...?"
Having recovered from her injuries, Cocolia lay on the ground, gazing at Yuno with resentment.
"Even if it means death, I will not—"
"Die?"
Yuno had already forcibly suppressed the Herrscher Core, sealed away the power of the Herrscher of Death and directly summoned several sharp, poisonous vines, which pierced into Cocolia's body.
Why do you think I would let you die so quickly?
As the highly poisonous vines pierced Cocolia's body, she immediately felt an unbearable pain eroding her pain receptors.
