Chapter 176

"You can't hurt a tool. Tools don't feel pain. Without the master's command, a tool won't go anywhere..."

Before the android girl could finish speaking, Shen Gonglin had just destroyed the attacking mecha, came over again. Using the power of the Herrscher of the Void of the Spear of the Void. He couldn't help himself after hearing what the android girl said.

"What do you mean you can't hurt a tool? Believe me or not, I'll unplug your Wi-Fi. Don't even mention being a tool. If you were a tool, you wouldn't have dodged when I poked your tongue. You're far from being a tool, you idiot. Besides, if you're a tool, believe me, I'll hang you up and beat you up. If you don't believe me, you can ask Bronya and Theresa. Trust me, I'm capable of doing something like that."

Chapter 44 Try to Protect Me

Grabbing the android girl by the collar, Shen Gonglin stared at her with his deep purple eyes, which shone brightly. Shen Gonglin cherished life and was extremely proud of his human identity. So when he heard the android girl's words that disregarded his human identity and life, he became a little angry. He really didn't understand. Did she think it was cool to say that? There's a limit to being a chuunibyou. If she's a machine, she shouldn't have dodged when he poked her tongue. Seriously, what's wrong with treating her like a human? Does she look down on the human identity that much?

"No... Shen Gonglin, don't be angry. She just... Anyway, leave this to me. You still need to take care of the mechs over there."

Quickly pull Shen Gonglin and the android girl apart. Theresa shields the android girl behind her and smiles at Shen Gonglin, while Shen Gonglin snorts and turns around, venting all the pent-up emotions on the attacking mecha force. He's not really angry; he's just a little annoyed. With a blink of his eyes, countless spatial rifts unfold behind the mecha force, and the Shen Gonglin Spear of the Void accurately pierces through each mecha. Machines, huh? If you want to be a machine so badly, why did you refuse the name I gave you? Since you're a machine, you'd better obey me!

"Don't be afraid, he's just good with words... I'm sorry! I didn't say anything... Anyway, you shouldn't make him angry. If that guy really gets angry, no one can stop him. Let's come with us first, it's dangerous to stay here."

Theresa was speaking quietly to the android girl when she noticed Shen Gonglin's gaze. She instinctively straightened up and immediately apologized. Her dignity as the headmistress was completely gone. But what could Theresa do? She didn't dare to retaliate, so she could only obediently endure it. Fortunately, only Shen Gonglin dared to disobey her superior, so she could tolerate it a little.

"I've already said, I cannot leave this city without my master's orders."

The android girl calmly shook her head. No matter what, she couldn't leave. But judging from the looks of it, they wouldn't let her go, so it seemed she had no choice but to implement the emergency plan. The special command set up to deal with this situation... Strangely, she felt resistance. A machine should execute commands accurately. An unqualified machine is not needed, so she had to execute it resolutely.

"But the Gray Serpent is already dead."

Theresa couldn't help but speak up. At first, she was afraid of upsetting the android girl, so she had been avoiding the question. But after spending time together, she found that there was no special emotional bond between the android girl and Gray Serpent. It was as if they were really a machine and its user. Even if Gray Serpent's life or death was mentioned in front of her, it would not affect her in the slightest. This level of human modification was truly insane. Had all the emotions that humans possessed been extinguished?

"Even though the owner is dead, this city is still the safest place in the world."

The android girl insisted on not leaving Sky City. For her, staying in Sky City was indeed the safest choice, because no matter how good or bad the outside world was, if she left, it would definitely mean death. She didn't want to die... But fear of death? That didn't seem like the kind of emotion a tool should have.

"In the face of Honkai, no city in this world can be considered safe. Help me find Kiana. Once you find Kiana, the Great Honkai will end!"

Theresa glanced at the night sky, a hint of sadness showing on her small, innocent face. However, when she saw Spear of the Void wielding the Shen Gonglin of the Void and engaging in close combat, her azure eyes filled with hope again. Shen Gonglin was currently using the power of the Herrscher, and with him as an example right before her eyes, there was no sign of him losing control. This power was incredibly obedient to Shen Gonglin, Kiana's problems could definitely be solved as well. Find her, and then resolve the Honkai. Theresa's belief had never been so firm as it was now.

Himeko, Bronya, Mei, Kiana... and herself, everyone's hopes are now slowly converging on Shen Gonglin. If it's him, then it's definitely possible... How did I become so mindlessly trusting of him, just like Bronya? This isn't something a mature headmistress should do.

"End the Great Honkai? Countless data flows through the internet, every piece of intelligence, every record left by humanity... These things wash over my brain like a tide. When will the Honkai end? I have asked myself this question before. I filter, analyze, calculate... However, with my abilities, I cannot see the future of humanity. An unseen future is worthless, just like humanity's actions, which are meaningless and will eventually be erased by the Honkai."

The topic of ending the Honkai evoked a small reaction from the android girl. After regaining internet access to her brain, she summarized all the information and ultimately concluded that humanity could not defeat the Honkai. She truthfully informed Theresa of this, but the headmistress scoffed at the conclusion. "Humanity cannot defeat the Honkai? What a joke! Cecilia, Siegfried, and Himeko ... They've worked so hard. It would be unfair to end everything they've done with just a few words. Humanity will definitely defeat the Honkai —that's the belief they've always held dear!"

However, it seems that it will be difficult to convey one's beliefs to this android girl.

"Even if what I do is meaningless, even if finding Kiana cannot end the Honkai... Even so, I will still bring her home and face the end of this world together, because bringing her home is the meaning itself."

The little school principal straightened her chest, but the android girl still couldn't understand the meaning of what she was doing. But now there was no need to understand anymore. All the conditions had been triggered, and her mission as a tool should come to an end.

"I'm sorry, Headmaster, you may not understand, but I really can't leave Sky City ... They've come. They've come at my call. If you really need me, then try to protect me from these mechs."

The alarm bells on Bronya's computer went off, and she turned her head in surprise. Could it be?

"Headmaster, the humanoid machine is summoning all the mechs in Sky City, its target is... to destroy her!"

Chapter Forty-Five: Self-Destruction Operation

"What! Kid, stop right there!"

Theresa was shocked upon hearing the news. Why would she do this? It turned out that all the attacking mechs were because of her. But why was she doing this? Controlling all the networked mechs in the city with the aim of destroying herself? Theresa couldn't accept this idea at all.

Theresa quickly grabbed the humanoid mech's arm to stop her, but the order had already been issued. All the mechs in Sky City had received the order to destroy the humanoid mechs, and the entire city was in motion. Both military and civilian mechs locked onto the target, and it was now completely too late.

"There's no time, Headmaster. Rita will definitely notice such a big commotion. Mei's stalling is pointless now. Headmaster, you should recall Mei as soon as possible to prepare for retreat. Bronya will try to take over her highest authority during this time so that the signal can be cut off. We should be able to do that with the Gray Serpent's chip. Headmaster, I hope you and Shen Gonglin will buy Bronya enough time."

Bronya remained calm. This self-destruct command must have been implanted in the humanoid's head by Gray Serpent beforehand. This command would automatically trigger as long as it left a certain range. Besides summoning mechs to destroy attacks, there might be other self-destruct commands. Bronya unplugged the data cable from the Heavy-duty Rabbit and plugged it into the interface on the humanoid's faceplate, attempting to crack the firewall. Whether for Kiana's intelligence or for the humanoid itself, Bronya would not stand idly by and watch a life disappear before her eyes.

"Understood, Bronya. Everything is in your hands now. Shen Gonglin, fight with all your might!"

Knowing Bronya's plans, all I can do now is buy her time. A golden cross materializes on Theresa's back. Facing an entire city of mechs, it seems it's time to cause a ruckus.

"I've been fighting with all my might the whole time... These kinds of point defense battles are the most troublesome."

Shen Gonglin muttered to herself that these mechs didn't actually pose much of a problem for her. Although all the mechs in the city were converging here, only about half of them were combat-capable. The remaining civilian mechs weren't even equipped with weapons. And even these mechs could take the life of the android girl. She had to protect her while fighting, so the power of the Herrscher of the Void didn't seem to be very suitable. Well, that's fine too. After using the power of the Herrscher for so long, it was time to try out the power she possessed herself.

The star rings disappeared from her eyes, and the spatial rifts that had appeared in the air vanished instantly. Without Shen Gonglin's participation as the main DPS, Theresa suddenly felt the pressure increase. The headmaster gritted her teeth and held on. Shen Gonglin must have his own reasons for doing this. She just needed to hold on. The power of the Herrscher of the Void was so strong, why didn't he use it?

However, it seems that none of the strengths this guy possesses is weak.

Shen Gonglin closed his eyes, and a burning sensation began to spread from his back. Due to brain damage, Shen Gonglin had been unable to use other powers for a long time. Now he had finally fully recovered and could feel the exhilarating power in his body. Electromagnetism surged within him, the core of the angel glowed faintly in his body, and the Stigmata of the Time Spirit on his back appeared on his skin. In this range, it was decided that it was her!

Her pupils subtly changed, with one golden and one red heterochromatic eye replacing her original deep purple eyes. In an instant, Shen Gonglin was dressed in a black and red gothic dress. That was the end of the cross-dressing issue. Anyway, in their eyes she was already a pervert, so what's the big deal if she became a pervert again?

"City of Time".

The power of the spirits completed the attire. Shen Gonglin lightly stomped the ground, and a huge pale red clock phantom instantly spread throughout the city. Compared to the Herrscher of the Void's still somewhat unskilled power, Shen Gonglin was much more adept at using the abilities of the Time Spirit. All those mechs were powered by Honkai energy, and within the area of the City of Time, all the Honkai energy would be absorbed.

It's a little unfair to the people within the City of Time, as this attack drains human energy under indiscriminate attacks. However, Shen Gonglin has already made adjustments, and the lost energy can be recovered with a good night's sleep and some good food.

"This, this ability... Shen Gonglin, you really are a strange guy."

Seeing the mechs moving slower and slower, Theresa glanced back at Shen Gonglin. She vaguely remembered this move. Even she could feel her power draining away. Visible Honkai energy emanated from the mechs in blackish-purple strands, attracting Shen Gonglin's attention. It felt like a demon draining human energy... Who is the real villain here?

Looking at Shen Gonglin, whose body was surging with red and black energy, Theresa was a little confused. Shen Gonglin looked like she had the aura of a villain.

However, this guy is indeed a little devil who can absorb other people's life force. After all, she was treated like that by him before, so Theresa felt that she had the right to speak on the matter.

"That should solve everything, right...? Bronya, how are you?"

The mechs throughout the city lost their mobility. The only drawback of this move is that it is an indiscriminate attack. Everyone within this range will have their energy drained, whether it is physical strength or Honkai energy. However, it must be said that the range of this move is really large, and this level should be able to restrict the movement of those mechs.

"Just a little bit more... Wait, obtaining the highest level of access requires a biometric authentication, which we can't crack yet... No, Shen Gonglin, another attack is coming, and the frequency and number of them... It's missiles!"

Bronya was still trying to crack the highest level of access, but the biometric authentication that appeared at the last step stopped her. Before she could continue cracking, the dense array of Little Red dots that appeared on the screen made Bronya's eyes widen slightly. In addition to those mechs, the humanoid machines had other self-destruction methods.

"Mobilize all the city's armed forces for a salvo. The target is here. Headmaster, you all need to run! The missile is aimed at me. If you retreat now, it should still be in time."

The android girl spoke calmly, saying that there were still many self-destruct programs available, and if one didn't work, she would have another.

Chapter Forty-Six

"Summoning missiles to blow yourself up? How much do you want to fly? If you want to fly, just tell me. Why go through all this trouble? It's not hard to die, is it? Seriously, Bronya, find a way to disconnect this guy's internet. He's such a nuisance, almost as bad as Kiana."

An unexpected thing happened to the humanoid machine. After learning about it, Theresa and the others seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Shen Gonglin still had time to complain. Did they think she was joking? She had really given the order to bomb this place after connecting to the network. There was a reason why Sky City had become a huge city that protected humanity. The city's defenses were very strong. Even if she only mobilized half of the missiles, it would be enough to give this place a nuclear annihilation. If they didn't escape now, they would really die with her.

Although it might be too late to escape now.

"Sigh, I knew things would turn out this way. Hiding our tracks was a joke. Now, even a fool would know something's wrong here, let alone Rita. She'll probably be here soon... In that case, Shen Gonglin, don't hold back anymore. Do your best to protect us. If possible, try not to damage the city. Such a prosperous city, if these missiles explode, it will definitely cause civilian casualties."

Theresa sighed. All her persistence had been in vain. She never expected that this android girl would resort to such a desperate move. The huge clock phantom under her feet seemed to have no effect on the pre-programmed missiles. However, with Shen Gonglin here, he would surely have a solution. What was Gray Serpent thinking? Why would he give such an order to a humanoid robot? It seems he is definitely not an ordinary information broker!

"Received. I quite like this city. The barbecue at the night market there is especially delicious. I don't want it to be destroyed... What else do you want to do, Bronya? Come here quickly. I've temporarily blocked data transmission near her with electromagnetic waves. It won't last long. I'm leaving the task of obtaining her top-level access to you."

Seeing what the android girl was about to do, a glint of lightning flashed in Shen Gonglin's eyes. His ability to control electromagnetic fields was finally working properly. He handed the temporarily disconnected android girl to Bronya, Shen Gonglin looked up at the sky. With his eyesight, he could already see the missiles trailing flames. Their power was considerable, and their numbers were quite substantial. Even Honkai Beast only be able to survive under such firepower. If these things exploded in the city, tsk tsk, that would be terrifying.

The clock phantom suddenly shrank and disappeared. Even now, Shen Gonglin still couldn't use both powers at the same time. The power of the Time Spirit was a bit unsuitable for dealing with this situation. We still had to let the Universal Angel handle it.

"Strategic use of the Universal Angel, begin dressing."

Her eyes turned red, and layers of flowing data flashed across Shen Gonglin. Her originally golden hair was subtly tinged with cherry blossom pink, and her original red and black gothic dress transformed into a technologically advanced silver-white battle suit. Two enormous pink wings unfurled behind Shen Gonglin. Universal Angel Form, complete!

"Stay here and be right back."

A semi-circular protective shield, shimmering with seven-colored light, enveloped Theresa and the others. With this absolute defensive barrier, Shen Gonglin didn't need to worry about their safety. Looking at the approaching missiles, Shen Gonglin took a deep breath and soared into the sky. Intercepting a single missile was nothing to him, but these were more than just a few missiles filling the sky. If this many were to hit, half a city would be wiped out.

"Quantity assessment... 834 pieces. It hasn't even broken 1,000 yet. It seems I misjudged it. 834 pieces is a reasonable number."

With just a quick glance, the data analysis from the Universal Angel had already given an accurate judgment. It seemed that the subsequent missile launches had been prevented by the network shutdown, and all that he needed to do was to be responsible for the missiles in the air. This number was not a problem at all.

Is this... an angel? So angels really do exist in this world!

As Shen Gonglin prepared to intercept the missile, people in the bustling city below had already spotted Shen Gonglin in the air. After all, those two enormous wings were incredibly eye-catching. More and more people saw Shen Gonglin in the air and, unaware of the impending danger, excitedly took photos. Luckily, the distance was high enough that they couldn't see their own faces, otherwise their photos in women's clothing would probably be circulating online.

Suppressing the urge to send the missiles crashing down to clear out the people taking photos, Shen Gonglin focused her attention on the missiles in the air. As expected of a strategic Universal Angel, she was practically omnipotent in combat. In addition to determining the number of missiles, she even predicted their trajectories. It was hard to imagine what it would be like if she could use the Universal Angel at 100% power. At that time, she should be able to fight against Herrscher, right?

Recalling her previous experience fighting the Herrscher, Shen Gonglin shook her head. Back then, the Herrscher hadn't used her full strength against her, so she couldn't judge the Herrscher's true strength. Even Shen Gonglin didn't know who was stronger between her and the Herrscher now.

That's... Shen Gonglin! What's he doing over there? What has he been doing while he was away?

The sight in the sky gradually attracted the attention of the city's residents. Kiana, who was leaping and bounding between tall buildings in search of Shen Gonglin, also looked up and saw the white figure in the sky. The girl squinted for a long time before she could tell that it was Shen Gonglin. After all, they were too far apart, and she had lost sight of him without even noticing. How did he get there in the blink of an eye, and in this state... He's such a troublemaker. No doubt, he must have gotten himself into some trouble again.

"So that's where they are. What a bunch of lost little mice. I didn't expect little Rin to be there too. In that case, we'll have to change our approach a bit. After all, a cruel maid isn't exactly popular."

On the other side, the maid also looked up and saw the scene in the sky. She had originally planned to leave the bombing zone after receiving the report, but now it seemed to have a lot of significance.

Chapter 47 The Fusion of Two Forces

Regarding the interception of air-to-air missiles, Shen Gonglin initially considered using the same method as the Herrscher of the Void to create spatial rifts and randomly transfer the missiles to any location. However, she abandoned this idea as soon as it crossed her mind. Who knew where it would be safe to transfer them? If something went wrong, it would be bad. In this situation, it was better not to rely on luck anymore and to destroy them directly. There were only a little over eight hundred missiles, and Permanent Air-to-Air Missile should be able to handle them.

This is also why Shen Gonglin uses the Universal Angel. Speaking of which, Icarus is also known as the Queen of the Void. Look how powerful her Queen of the Void is! She's much stronger than that stupid Herrscher. She can be used strategically and for fun. This outfit is nothing special on her, but if Icarus wore it... Shen Gonglin is starting to get a little excited. Compared to Icarus, even Himeko might not be a match for her.

Slightly shifting her position, Shen Gonglin turned her attention back to the missiles in the sky. If these humanoid machines were allowed to bombard the area with their missiles, nothing would be left. However, with her here, she didn't need to worry about that.

"Permanent air-to-air homing missile, target confirmed, launch!"

Having locked onto the location of each missile, Shen Gonglin's eyes sharpened, and countless missiles shot into the sky from her pink and white wings. The air-to-air missiles launched by Shen Gonglin accurately hit the missiles of the city's defense system, and explosions rang out from the sky. In an instant, the entire city was illuminated as if it were daytime. Speaking of which, shouldn't a real man never look at explosions? Should I turn around?

"No! Shen Gonglin, there's another one, another one with a stronger reaction than the others is approaching... Is this a nuclear missile? Shen Gonglin, before cutting off communications, the humanoid machine activated another contingency plan. She activated a nuclear missile stored in the city's reserves. Why would there be such a thing... At this distance... Shen Gonglin, although it's a tactical nuclear missile, not a strategic one, the entire city is within its range. Everything is up to you."

Just as Shen Gonglin was feeling relieved, Bronya sent another piece of bad news. The girl's voice on the communicator was as usual, as if she were talking about something very ordinary. Shen Gonglin was slightly speechless. She had entrusted everything to her. Bronya really trusted her.

Intercepting nuclear missiles... Forget it, let's take this opportunity to test what would happen if the powers of the two Queen of the Void were combined.

Shen Gonglin had previously considered using one power while simultaneously using another. If he could do it both ways, his combat power would definitely double. Unfortunately, he tried many times without success. It sounds simple, but it is much more difficult than multitasking. Although he succeeded sometimes, the power he displayed was not even as strong as when he focused on using one power. Now that his brain has fully recovered, perhaps this is an opportunity.

The explosions caused by the air-to-air missiles have gradually subsided, and darkness is slowly returning to the night sky. The Universal Angel's radar has detected the approaching greatest threat. This thing cannot be detonated casually. Even if it were detonated in the air, the entire city is still within its blast radius. Detonating it in the air is not much different from detonating it on the ground. Therefore, we need to find a way to raise it a little higher.

And this requires the power of the Herrscher of the Void.

Shen Gonglin closed his eyes. If he were to compare his body to a container, it would now be filled with the liquid of the Universal Angel Icarus... That's a really weird way to put it, but that's the gist of it. In Shen Gonglin's mind, the best outcome would be for the Herrscher of the Void and the Universal Angel's powers to coexist within him at their full strength. But he obviously couldn't do that right now. Having already suffered a brain injury, Shen Gonglin didn't dare to act recklessly. So, his idea was: what if each power was only half its original strength? Would that allow them to coexist within him?

First, he tried to reduce the power of the Universal Angel. The cherry-colored hair slowly faded, but what reappeared wasn't the brilliant gold. The energy of the Herrscher of the Void obtained from Kiana turned the hair white. One pinkish-white wing vanished, replaced by three dreamlike, colorful wings. Even his originally pure white battle suit changed shape, with long ribbons spreading from it and floating around Shen Gonglin. When Shen Gonglin opened his eyes again, one of them had turned deep purple, and a star ring gathered in his eye. The first convergence of the two powers was, quite perfectly.

After all, it's all my own power, and there's no such thing as it being disobedient. Whether it's Herrscher or Universal Angel, as long as it's within me, it's all under my control.

"Using the power of the Herrscher of the Void while simultaneously using the Universal Angel feels pretty good... Haha!"

Having adjusted her state, Theresa started shouting in the communication. Rin pointed Shen Gonglin finger in the air, and a golden circle appeared in mid-air. The nuclear bomb disappeared after entering the circle. For the Herrscher of the Void, this level of spatial transfer was quite easy.

The nuclear bomb disappeared, but in Shen Gonglin's red eye, which represents the Universal Angel, the reappearance of the nuclear bomb could be seen tens of thousands of meters in the sky. The previous spatial transfer only increased the height of the nuclear bomb. At this distance, the explosion should not have affected the ground.

"The Ultimate Weapon... Apollon."

A black longbow appeared in Shen Gonglin's hand. She took a deep breath and drew back the bowstring. A black arrow appeared on the bowstring. Shen Gonglin had used this move more than once. This move could be said to be her ultimate killing move. Whether it was the range or the power, it was second to none. It was just that the accuracy might be a little lacking. However, Shen Gonglin was still good at aiming at targets that would not move around.

"Give it to me, okay!"

The bowstring was drawn back, Shen Gonglin aimed at the falling nuclear missile. This strike would pierce through the stars... Tsk, why am I thinking about that unlucky woman? I can't think about her, thinking about her will never bring anything good.

Chapter Forty-Eight: The Maid Intercepts the Deal

As the long night pierced the sky, a jet-black arrow, like a sharp sword tearing through the darkness, hurtled towards the falling warhead. A violent explosion occurred between the two upon impact. At this distance, even the explosion would not cause any impact on the ground, and there was no need to worry about radiation or similar issues. This could be considered the most perfect solution.

Retracting his longbow, Shen Gonglin turned around and stylishly shielded himself from the explosion with his back. The longbow vanished from his hand. A true man never looks back at an explosion. He must look incredibly cool right now. This time, the power of the Universal Angel and the power of the Herrscher of the Void fused quite perfectly. In the future, he just needs to continue strengthening them while maintaining the balance between the two powers. Shen Gonglin looked at the ground, wanting to give Theresa and the others a cool smile. However, when he looked at the ground, he suddenly seemed to remember something.

It seems that even the combined power of an angel and Herrscher cannot cure his fear of heights.

A wave of dizziness washed over Shen Gonglin. His attention had been entirely focused on fusing power to resolve the crisis, and now, the moment he relaxed, Shen Gonglin realized his surroundings. Even the tallest building in Sky City wasn't as tall as he was now! This height was enough to kill several demon hunters. His wings and light wings stiffened, unable to support Shen Gonglin any longer. He transformed into a white streak of light and plummeted from the sky. It was over. His acrophobia was acting up; he couldn't do anything now.

"The bomb crisis has been resolved, the humanoid machine is temporarily under control, and Shen Gonglin should come down... Wait, he's not slowing down. Preliminary assessment... This guy remembered his fear of heights, Mei- neechan!"

On the ground, Bronya accurately assessed Shen Gonglin's condition. Busy cutting off the humanoid machines and the city's defenses, she turned back and called out to Mei. Mei understood immediately. They all knew that Shen Gonglin had a fear of heights. It was likely that Schicksal and Anti-Entropy had even recorded this issue. In Mei's opinion, Shen Gonglin's fear of heights was more of a psychological problem. As long as he didn't realize it, it was fine. But as soon as he realized he was in the air, the symptoms of his fear of heights would instantly flare up.

Even possessing the powers of both an angel and the Herrscher of the Void cannot change anything in the slightest.

"Clear."

Mei nodded calmly. Actually, she had wanted to bring this up when Mei Shen Gonglin took off, but Mei was afraid that something would happen if she mentioned Shen Gonglin. She was prepared for this situation. The girl bent down slightly and used the surrounding walls and tall buildings to jump into the air. This distance was no problem.

"That idiot must have forgotten that he has a fear of heights. Since Mei... I'll let her have this chance to be the hero."

On another high-rise building, a white figure appeared silently. Kiana had rushed over after noticing Shen Gonglin's exertion, and unsurprisingly, she saw Mei leaping between the buildings. Kiana quickly concealed herself. Although seeing Mei excited her, Kiana knew that this was not the time to reunite with them. If she saw them now, she would be reluctant to leave. So... she just needed to watch her from afar like this.

If I were to stay with them now, I would definitely hurt them. The Herrscher is constantly trying to invade my body. Now, Kiana can't even use her powers, let alone use her Honkai energy normally, as it could give the Herrscher an opportunity. Unlike Shen Gonglin, I can't use the Herrscher's power without restraint. I still have a long way to go.

Kiana leaned against the wall, watching Mei gradually approach the falling Shen Gonglin. Fu Hua and the Herrscher of the Void within her were also watching this scene. After waiting for a while, the girl turned and left, but she did not see what happened next.

Just as Shen Gonglin was about to catch Mei, a cold moonlight suddenly flashed in the air, and Shen Gonglin's figure disappeared instantly. Mei, who had caught nothing, returned to the ground. Mei looked over warily, and Theresa and the others were also on high alert. Sure enough, they had waited for her to come.

Rita Losweather, the S-rank Valkyrie of Schicksal, she has indeed arrived.

Gone is her previous green combat suit. The maid, who was originally prepared to deal with a nuclear bomb, is now wearing a blue and white Valkyrie Armor, the 4th Generation God-Slaying Armor, another combat suit in the Moon series, Argent Knight: Argent Knight: Artemis.
