Have You Not Made Enough Trouble?

"If anything happens to you, those girls with you will tear me apart!"

"Ah, this..."

Seeing that Mike was truly flustered, Lin Yu said with a wry smile.

"Stop joking around, we're all reasonable people."

"Once they find out about this, they will immediately realize that I am acting on my own initiative, and you will definitely not be held responsible."

"Also, I think you should clarify something..."

"—The Herrscher came to me. The one who should be afraid is not me, but her."

"Just a mere Herrscher, it's not like it's the first time I've knocked Herrscher to the ground."

"Well said, but meaningless."

Listening to Lin Yu's sophistry... well, Mike also felt that it wasn't sophistry, but the truth.

But there's still a problem with that statement!

Seeing Lin Yu already standing up and preparing to jump from the plane, Mike immediately spoke to Lin Yu at top speed.

"Wait a minute! This time, the Herrscher flew in quickly from somewhere else. In other words, she's flying high in the sky, so you can't hit her. She has air superiority. If you can't touch her, you'll be kited to death—Holy crap!"

After watching Lin Yu jump off the plane again in front of him, Mike could only feel...

—Damn it, after this is over, I'm definitely going to report Lin Yu's condition to Bishop Theresa!

He was already terrifying enough for being out hunting Honkai Beast in armor, but when he encountered Herrscher, he jumped out of his plane and charged at her without saying a word...

With his behavior, if his mental illness isn't treated soon, it could really cause serious problems!

Now, seeing Lin Yu falling downwards, Mike could only fly the transport plane away from the area as quickly as possible.

He was worried about Lin Yu, but not to the point of completely losing his rationality.

When the Herrscher arrives, the Honkai Energy shockwaves generated by Lin Yu's fight with the Herrscher will be enough to blow up the transport plane he's piloting.

His presence here will not only fail to provide any assistance, but will also hinder Lin Yu's progress.

He's driven almost mad by his Honkai Lin Yu, but in other respects, he's truly loyal.

Mike had no doubt that if his transport plane were destroyed, Lin Yu would come to rescue him immediately.

When fighting against enemies of the Herrscher caliber, a momentary opening can often be enough to decide the outcome.

Damn it, Bishop Otto doesn't seem like a good person, but that's actually quite normal.

But Lin Yu, the strongest knight destined for Schicksal, has gone mad like this...

Forget it, let's retreat.

I don't even have the right to worry about him. I should report this to headquarters as soon as possible and ask the reinforcements to come to the rescue.

Lin Yu, who was falling from the sky, was not as frantic as Mike had imagined.

In fact, even if he didn't activate the Mirror Mind to stabilize his mind, he didn't feel any panic.

Everyone is afraid of death, but no one would stop drinking water just because they're afraid of dying from the thought that drinking water will kill them.

Low-probability events are still low-probability events. Now that the system isn't giving him any rewards, it means that he's guaranteed to win against this enemy.

Moreover, Lin Yu had another purpose for taking the Blank Key and the Divine Key with him this time, which he didn't tell anyone else.

He received new equipment and acquired new skills from the system, but he didn't have time to test them.

He originally intended to test his strength at a suitable time before going out, to see just how far he could go.

Especially now that it's basically confirmed that Kevin has emerged from seclusion, Lin Yu feels that he should be even clearer about just how powerful the 'strongest Lin Yu's can be.

Only by clearly understanding the limits of his own strength can he make the most correct judgments in the battles to come.

As for what the enemy will do...

Anyway, he still has the God-Slaying Spear. If all else fails, he can beat the opponent to the brink of death, use the God-Slaying Spear to suppress the Herrscher Persona, use Powerful Healing Technique or Full Vitality Recovery Potion to heal the opponent's body, and finally use the Phantasm Lantern Barrier to rewrite the opponent's cognition.

After using this method, even if the opponent is crippled or traumatized, he should be able to completely heal them.

Lin Yu, who was in mid-air, released his magic power and used it to condense a parachute, allowing himself to slowly and steadily descend from the sky.

At the same time, sensing the powerful Honkai energy Honkai Energy emanating from ahead, Lin Yu concentrated his magic power around his body and activated the [Lord's Imprint], a technique he had never used before.

Lord, King of Fear, activate.

After activating this mark that could potentially harm himself, Lin Yu could feel that he indeed experienced extremely intense pain at that moment.

However, along with the pain came immense power and terrifying 'malice,' which simultaneously descended upon Lin Yu.

"Hey, this is the power of Dracula..."

Despite clearly feeling his body constantly being injured, Lin Yu felt no panic whatsoever.

However, after activating the imprint that allows a powerful being to temporarily descend upon him through magic to amplify his own strength, Lin Yu could feel that the violent emotions he had been suppressing within him almost spiraled out of control at this moment.

That makes sense, as Dracula is a representative creature of the 'evil' side in the Devil's Castle universe, and naturally has the power to corrupt the minds of others.

In "The Stolen Mark", the mage Baron, who originally tried to use the mark to deal with Dracula, was corrupted by Dracula's power and unknowingly became Dracula's henchman. He used his own life to bring the sealed Dracula back to the world.

Even if I activate the Mirror Mind, I can only slightly suppress this emotion that originates from the depths of my heart.

Ah, you really have to try things out to know how to use power properly.

After temporarily overcoming his problems, Lin Yu activated his second seal in the direction of the enemy.

Lord. Aversion, initiation.

After activating the second engraving, Lin Yu could feel five surging forces bursting forth from his fingertips.

As he released the inscription, the five beams of light, which appeared thin but actually contained immense power, shot directly toward the enemy who was getting closer and closer to Lin Yu.

After using this move, Lin Yu unsurprisingly felt some pain again.

Using the abilities of both the Lord of Fear and the Lord of Hatred simultaneously is actually a different usage from the 'fusion with other imprints' mentioned in the system prompt.

What Lin Yu is doing now is using the two types of engraved enemies to amplify himself and launch attacks, but he is not combining the two powers.

However, even without the fusion of the imprints to launch an attack, both imprints are already putting a certain burden on Lin Yu.

Sigh, if I have to risk my life next time, I think I need to find a way to be prepared to take drugs at any time.

The two seals were already uncomfortable on their own, but the three seals simultaneously unleashed their power to complete the fusion...

Before the enemy even attacks, I'll probably be crippled immediately.

After escaping from Haiyuan City and getting away from the white-haired man, Wendy finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

Even though she was far away from that man, Wendy couldn't muster the slightest bit of resistance towards him.

It's not my fault that I can't beat him; it's not that I'm too weak. It's that he's a monster.

What I need to do now is, is, is...

That's right, Schicksal!

Everyone in the Schicksal Ones has been deceived by Otto!

No, it's one thing if I'm an idiot, but are the others really idiots?

They might have known Otto's character all along, yet they still continued to work for him...

Bad guy!

Those guys are all bad people!

At this moment, Wendy was completely unaware that her thoughts toward her Schicksal colleagues were becoming increasingly extreme.

Under the influence of the Honkai, Wendy, who originally planned to warn everyone about the dangers of Otto, was successfully fooled and decided to kill a few of Otto's henchmen first.

However, Wendy, who was speeding toward the Schicksal Transporter, suddenly sensed some beams of extremely high energy density ahead.

"Enemy? Hmph, do you think I can't dodge these beams!"

Wendy, who easily dodged the beams of light, revealed a cold smile.

But before she could finish smiling...

Just as Wendy dodged the beams of light, she felt a violent impact from behind, which pierced through the wind wings that had formed behind her.

Chapter 231. Haven't you made enough of a scene?

Lord. Hatred, this is a powerful mark that seals away a portion of Dracula's magic.

The green beam emitted through this engraving will fly towards the enemy in different attack methods depending on how the user uses it.

When Dracula uses this move, he likes to let these beams of light fall from the sky, so this is also known as the "Rain of Light" among some Devil's Castle players.

However, Lin Yu certainly didn't intend to use a technique like 'Rain of Light' to attack Wendy, who was flying in mid-air.

Herrscher possess Imaginary Barrier, the strength of which Lin Yu tested with his body.

If he launches a powerful attack, breaking through the opponent's Imaginary Barrier with a powerful attack is not a particularly difficult thing.

However, using this method of attacking by dispersing forces to attack an enemy with a barrier...

Honestly, he wouldn't do that even if he were out of his mind.

As for what to do after the enemy dodges the attack, Lin Yu had already thought about it before making his move.

Now that Wendy is in her Lawful state, her energy level has increased, but her mental state is not as stable.

If it were Wendy, a genius girl with 'extremely high talent, who graduated from St. Freya at the age of fourteen as A-rank Valkyrie Wendy and was judged by the Schicksal Headquarters to be the fourth S-rank sooner or later,' then Lin Yu might be more wary of her.

However, the Wendy who appeared in front of Lin Yu now was an inflated Herrscher whose inner negative emotions had been intensified by the Honkai, making her extremely extreme.

For Wendy, who had just gained immense power but whose mental preparation hadn't caught up, her first reaction to seeing these beams of light was 'that's it,' and she immediately began to show off her skills by narrowly avoiding the attack.

If it were a normal attack, she would have easily dodged the blow and continued charging towards Lin Yu using this showy technique.

The problem is that imprinting is essentially a transformation of the power residing in all things through a magical technique.

The beam of light emitted by the Lord of Hatred was essentially Lin Yu manipulating the beam to shoot at the opponent after combining magic with the imprint.

For Lin Yu, who possesses the special ability of Precision Operation, manipulating the beam to change direction is not as simple as breathing, and the difficulty is certainly not particularly high.

Wendy had barely dodged the attack when Lin Yu, in the distance, manipulated a beam of light to strike the wind wings on her back, created using Honkai Energy.

The moment the attack struck Wendy, the Imaginary Barrier that automatically activated behind her was also pierced by the blow.

With a burning pain coming from behind, Wendy, who had just been so aggressive, began to fall from the sky to the ground because of this sudden attack.

"Ah, it crashed just like that..."

As Lin Yu slowly descended using the magic parachute, he looked at the incredulous expression on Wendy's face and began to wonder if he should hold back a bit.

Some things really do happen, and even Phantasm Lantern Barrier might not be able to completely erase her psychological trauma...

"I'm... angry!"

As Wendy fell from the sky, the sudden pain from behind made her even angrier.

"Otto's lackey..."

"—Knight Lin Yu, I will definitely kill you!"

Seeing Wendy charging straight at him, Lin Yu immediately suppressed the urge to hold back.

What a load of water! I'm really getting worse as I get older.

Even if she's bad at it, she's still Herrscher, Herrscher can kill more than one or two people when they go berserk.

In the original timeline, before Anna had completely given up hope, the cold winds she blew could affect the climate of surrounding countries.

Given Wendy's mental state, if she were to be even more aggressive, she could do something similar to what Anna could do.

If, out of momentary pity, more unnecessary casualties occur—tch, how could I possibly tolerate such a thing happening?

At this moment, Lin Yu gripped the Seven Thunders of Retribution tightly, continuously pouring Honkai Energy into the katana in his hand.
