Chapter 206

Upon seeing the ground, Shen Gonglin felt dizzy. He forced himself to calm down, and as his mentality exploded, Tlaloc, who had been suppressed by him, also broke free from the lock of the Spear of the Void. His huge body let out a roar, and the surging sound waves made Shen Gonglin in the air even more out of control. What are you yelling about? Can't you see that the others are still in the air and too scared to move!

Shen Gonglin glared angrily at Tlaloc over there. Just as she had thought, all those attacks hadn't done any effective damage to this wretched thing. Its grayish-white body seemed to be covered by a hard shell that couldn't be broken through. The seemingly powerful attacks hadn't even pierced its skin. This was all because of her insufficient understanding of quantum space. Shen Gonglin's attacks hadn't penetrated the enemy's armor.

It's infuriating! The analysis of this quantum space is far too incomplete. Right now, Shen Gonglin really has no good solutions and can only rely on Bronya. Thinking of this, Shen Gonglin glanced at Bronya. The azure light intensified and enveloped Bronya. Shen Gonglin could feel the gathering of Honkai energy. And this feeling... I didn't expect Bronya to have gone down this path as well. Kiana's problem hasn't been solved yet, and Bronya has become such a being.

It really is a bit frustrating.

Sensing Bronya's change as well, Tlaloc finally shifted its attack target from Shen Gonglin to Bronya, who was fusing with the Herrscher of Reason Core. Its goal was to seize the core. Although it had no lower body, and its mobility should have been limited, these quantum creatures were truly beyond the comprehension of common sense. Its massive arm suddenly melted like a candle, and a grayish-white fluid shot towards Bronya like a ribbon. Although it lacked intelligence, it understood that it had to stop Bronya at this moment.

However, it understood that Shen Gonglin couldn't possibly be unaware and stand idly by.

Suppressing her fear of heights, Shen Gonglin gritted her teeth and flew to the front of Tlaloc's attack. Six Spear of the Void converged in front of her to form a shield, attempting to block the quantum creature's attack. However, the white, viscous liquid pierced through the Spear of the Void, leaving streaks of blood on Shen Gonglin's body. It was truly outrageous. Shen Gonglin's attacks couldn't harm it, yet its attacks could easily affect Shen Gonglin's body. It was so damn unfair.

Despite having a very low pain tolerance, Shen Gonglin still managed to block the attack. In fact, having mastered the Herrscher of the Void's abilities, he could easily dodge it even if he couldn't block it. However, this was partly due to his fear of heights, Shen Gonglin was causing his body to gradually become uncontrollable, and partly because of Bronya. The girl was at a critical moment, Shen Gonglin didn't block it for her, who would?

Speaking of this fear of heights... it really is incurable.

Gritting her teeth, Shen Gonglin blocked Tlaloc's attack, but was gradually pushed towards the ground from mid-air. The attack piercing through the gaps in the Spear of the Void made Shen Gonglin feel pain all over her body. She couldn't hold on any longer...

"It's alright, you can leave it to me."

Controlled by this power, just as Shen Gonglin was about to be shoved into the ground, Bronya's calm voice rang in his ears. Immediately afterward, Shen Gonglin felt his arm loosen, and the girl who had suddenly appeared beside him pulled him away from Tlaloc's attack range. The white streak, no longer protected by Shen Gonglin, pierced into the ground. Explosions and smoke instantly enveloped the area, and then, not long after, a small figure swiftly emerged from the smoke and dust—it was Bronya!

Holding Shen Gonglin's hand, Bronya led him through the area attacked by the Honkai Beast as if performing an ice dance. Bronya was different from usual. Even after Shen Gonglin healed her legs, the original Bronya was too lazy to walk on her own. But now the girl had two huge roller skates on her legs. What did this mean? Shen Gonglin had no idea.

Has she become a rollerblading girl?

"What's wrong?"

Unexpectedly, Bronya possessed such high roller skating skills. With Bronya holding her hand, Shen Gonglin followed behind her like a kite in flight. Feeling an unprecedented sense of ease, Bronya even had time to give Shen Gonglin a perfect smile amidst the intense battlefield. The core of the Herrscher of Reason had indeed met her expectations.

Although Shen Gonglin healed her legs, the loss of mobility was still a nightmare that would wake Bronya in the middle of the night. Perhaps she herself did not realize that subconsciously she was terrified of this matter to the extreme. However, after coming into contact with the core of the Herrscher of Reason, this nightmare seemed to be completely overcome. In contrast to the loss of mobility, she gained extremely high mobility. This is the current physical manifestation of the new Herrscher of Reason, Bronya.

"No, no, no... it's nothing, it's just that Bronya, you seem a little different than usual..."

Holding Bronya's hand felt like being a giant pendant swaying in the wind. Looking at Bronya in front of her, Shen Gonglin suddenly seemed a little dazed. It seemed that Bronya had finally completely opened her heart. On her face Shen Gonglin could only see confidence. It was different from what she had imagined. The core of the Herrscher of Reason did not seem to have any negative effects on Bronya. Unlike Kiana when she obtained the Herrscher of the Void, Bronya's situation seemed very stable now.

Could it be... that only Kiana is too bad? Otherwise, why didn't I and Bronya experience any side effects? Kiana, you really are terrible.

Shen Gonglin was lost in thought. He understood that Kiana's problem was indeed special. The Herrscher of the Void's power originally belonged to another person. With the awakening of that power, another personality within her also awakened. Meanwhile, the Herrscher of the Void power within him was a perfect replication of his own physique. Bronya didn't have this problem. That's why Kiana's problem was so special. Tsk tsk, I wonder how that girl is doing now.

"Is it different? Is Bronya usually or is Bronya prettier now?"

With a faint smile on her lips, Bronya had time to chat and laugh with Shen Gonglin while dodging the Honkai Beast's attacks. Her gray eyes were only on Shen Gonglin; compared to him, what was that big guy over there?

"Um, let me think about that, Bronya. You're not acting like this right now. It's more appropriate for me to tease you than to tease you. Be good, don't try to tease me. I admit, you are indeed... well..."

The rollerblading girl was very fast, but neither Shen Gonglin nor Bronya could affect her speed. Shen Gonglin was about to say something when Tlaloc, who had been attacking but was constantly dodged by Bronya's superb rollerblading skills, couldn't take it anymore. Did these two have any respect for him? They were like flies. Die!

A purple energy ball gathered in front of Tlaloc, and a pale arm suddenly slammed into Bronya's path. The massive explosion forced Bronya to leap high into the air to avoid the aftershocks of the attack, but in mid-air, she couldn't possibly dodge it.

This was Tlaloc's true attack route. The Honkai energy gathered in the mouth of this snake's familiar launched a true verbal attack on Bronya in the air. A purple torrent rushed towards Bronya and Shen Gonglin in the air. Sensing the powerful destructive force contained within it, Shen Gonglin frowned and was about to open a spatial teleportation to send the two away, but Bronya grabbed his Shen Gonglin and stopped him.

"Leave it to me."

The girl in the air spoke with unwavering confidence. Shen Gonglin hesitated for a moment before trusting Bronya. The purple torrent surged forward, but behind Bronya appeared a tall, illusory figure. This was... Heavy-duty Rabbit?

Shen Gonglin looked at the large mecha that appeared behind the two of them with surprise. It turned out that not only Bronya, but even Heavy-duty Rabbit had become like this. The blue and black armor made up the body of the mecha made Heavy-duty Rabbit look very high-tech. It was a completely different concept from the Herrscher of the Void. Bronya seemed to be more inclined to the technological style now.

The Heavy-duty Rabbit, now completely transformed, reached out to protect the two of them. A blue protective shield appeared in front of the Heavy-duty Rabbit. Upon closer inspection, Shen Gonglin saw that the shield was composed entirely of countless blue rhomboid crystals, and the strength of this shield... was probably much stronger than the defense she had constructed with the Spear of the Void.

[Attack detection detected. Energy flow Honkai energy composed of Honkai energy. Heavy-duty Rabbit, defense mode activated.]

A purple torrent poured out, but behind the Heavy-duty Rabbit, Shen Gonglin and Bronya were unharmed. Analyzing and defending against it, is this the current power of the Heavy-duty Rabbit?

Chapter 175 Car Accident Scene

Just defense? Bronya shook her head upon hearing Shen Gonglin's murmur. Like a child eager to show off a new toy, Bronya couldn't wait to demonstrate her power to Shen Gonglin. Heavy-duty Rabbit perfectly withstood the Honkai Beast's attack, but that wasn't Bronya's goal. She wanted to do more than that. Energy dissipated, Heavy-duty Rabbit, now was not the time to doze off.

It's time to show Shen Gonglin their true power!

"Heavy-duty Rabbit, RIDEON!"

The girl gave the command, and the Heavy-duty Rabbit immediately began to deploy upon receiving it. Although both are Herrscher of Reason, this power shines differently on different people. According to the Herrscher of Reason's ability description, Bronya should be able to construct everything in this world, but she has only just obtained this power, so Bronya cannot do that now. However, she is extremely familiar with her Heavy-duty Rabbit, so Bronya is completely adept at modifying it.

"RIDEON? Riding mode?"

Shen Gonglin was taken aback. Heavy-duty Rabbit had this ability? Then why was she completely unaware of it when she used it? Riding mode? What is this thing?

Just as Shen Gonglin was stunned, Heavy-duty Rabbit, after receiving Bronya's order, also made a new move. Like a mecha transforming and combining, Heavy-duty Rabbit transformed right in front of Shen Gonglin, and finally a heavy motorcycle full of technological style appeared in front of Shen Gonglin. Shen Gonglin's mouth twitched. Perhaps the power of the Herrscher of the Void had given Shen Gonglin a fixed mindset, but Bronya now... The ability of this Herrscher is really unimaginable.

Should I say "Autobot transformation" now? This is really Bronya's style. But then again, it's actually pretty cool.

"Shen Gonglin, hug Bronya's waist."

The purple Honkai energy dissipated, and Tlaloc's next attack followed. Bronya, riding on her motorcycle, patted the back seat of Shen Gonglin. She had said before that she would take Shen Gonglin for a ride, and now this could be considered as fulfilling that wish. The core of the Herrscher of Reason really allowed Bronya to do many things she wanted to do.

"Uh... Bronya, do you have a driver's license?"

Has she gone from a rollerblading girl to a "ghost fire girl"? Shen Gonglin hesitated as she looked at Bronya, who was riding on a motorcycle and gesturing for her to get on as well. It was obvious to anyone with a brain that Bronya didn't have a driver's license. How could someone her age possibly have one? So Shen Gonglin was genuinely worried about riding with her. "Ghost fire girl"... So this was the side of Bronya that lurked beneath her seemingly quiet exterior? Shen Gonglin felt the motorcycle was a bit unstable.

"No, but Bronya has perfectly completed over a hundred racing games, so she can definitely be called a veteran driver. Shen Gonglin, get in the car."

Bronya assured Shen Gonglin of this, unaware that her words only made Shen Gonglin more unsettled. So, gaming experience could be used as a driver's license? He felt like Bronya was just trying to fool him. What was with all this talk about getting in the car? Was her car even safe?

"Shen Gonglin, trust Bronya. Let Bronya, the experienced driver, take you for a ride."

Seeing Shen Gonglin's hesitation, Bronya didn't give him a chance to dawdle any longer. The girl grabbed Shen Gonglin's hand and pulled him onto her motorcycle. The seating arrangement on this high-tech motorcycle was quite unique. As soon as Shen Gonglin sat down, he pressed himself tightly against Bronya's body. Perfect. Bronya had completed another life experience. Let's keep going at this momentum. One day, Bronya will complete all her life plans.

Incidentally, a large part of Bronya's life plan is related to Shen Gonglin.

Going for a ride? Now's not the time for that. Even though this motorcycle is cool, it's still an obstacle if it can only move on the ground. This thing...

"Shen Gonglin, hold Bronya tight, the attack is coming."

Before Shen Gonglin could react, Bronya twisted the throttle and sped off. Tlaloc's attack came again, his mummy-like body emitting countless white streaks that attacked the two of them like tentacles. It was at this moment that Bronya showed Shen Gonglin what she could do now: who says motorcycles can't fly!

Construction, beginning.

Bronya lifted the front of the car, and suddenly a road created by blue structural energy appeared in the air. The motorcycle, Heavy-duty Rabbit, rushed into the air. This sudden feeling of weightlessness immediately triggered Shen Gonglin's fear of heights again. She knew that this silly loli was up to no good. She suddenly went up into the sky without saying a word. She was definitely targeting her!

While cursing Bronya in his heart, Shen Gonglin was actually quite obedient. He hugged Bronya's slender waist tightly and pressed his whole body against hers. Her flowing gray hair hit Shen Gonglin's face, making it almost impossible for him to open his eyes. Bronya has become so wicked now. Is there still a good girl in this world who listens to me?

Oh, right, there's also Mei.

"Shen Gonglin, help Bronya untangle her hair."

The power of construction created a path for Bronya's movement in the air. Without a driver's license, Bronya began a high-speed chase, with countless white tentacles pursuing her. However, Bronya always managed to maneuver her Heavy-duty Rabbit to dodge all attacks. As time went by, her understanding of the Herrscher of Reason's abilities deepened. "With a little more analysis, I can destroy this thing," she secretly calculated in her mind. Bronya glanced back at Shen Gonglin, who was currently pitifully covering her face with her hair. It seemed that this hairstyle didn't suit her current state. Uncovering it would probably make Shen Gonglin more comfortable.

"You should have said so earlier. I thought this was your true form... This is much better."

He bit open Bronya's headband with his teeth, and her two signature twin Roman curls immediately came undone, Bronya long, silver-gray hair. Bronya's hair wasn't short at all, and it seemed like Bronya was even more charming this way.

"As long as Shen Gonglin feels well, that's good... The analysis is complete. Shen Gonglin, Bronya, begin the attack."

With a perfect smile on her face, Bronya, carrying Shen Gonglin, darted through Tlaloc's attacks like a fish. She wasn't simply dodging the attacks; during this time, Bronya was also diligently comprehending the power of the Herrscher of Reason —the power to construct all things. It was indeed formidable. Bronya was also incredibly skilled at weapon construction. Thanks to her learning during those dark days, Bronya had an instinctive familiarity and affinity for weapons, and now was the time for her to unleash that ability.

The blue road instantly spread through the air, and at the end of the road was the huge quantum creature Tlaloc. It was this thing that had just bullied Shen Gonglin. Looking at the bloodstains on Shen Gonglin's face, Bronya's eyes were filled with coldness. How dare it hurt Shen Gonglin? Then it will pay with its life. Heavy-duty Rabbit, ready!

Countless blue structural energies emerged in the void, and the cannon barrel and cannon shaft gradually took shape. The structural energies appeared in the sky like stars. Tlaloc seemed to sense the threat contained in these structural energies, and it let out another strange roar. All the white chains and the two huge arms slammed towards Bronya, but this time Bronya did not dodge. This time, there was no need to dodge!

The girl twisted the accelerator, pushing the speed of the Heavy-duty Rabbit on the display screen to its limit. Realizing what Bronya was about to do, Shen Gonglin could do now was hold her tightly around the waist. This little girl had a heart set on killing someone! She knew Bronya didn't have a driver's license. What driving school could train a driver with Bronya's personality? She actually wanted to run over Tlaloc in front of her... Shen Gonglin suddenly felt a little afraid to mess with Bronya. This girl was serious.

"Shen Gonglin, hold me tight."

Giving Shen Gonglin a little time to prepare, Bronya felt the arm tighten around her waist again, and a triumphant smile spread across her face. Why did she have to Heavy-duty Rabbit into a motorcycle? That was exactly what Bronya planned. Anyway, Shen Gonglin would be carrying her most of the time in the future, and if it was a motorcycle, she could be held by him all the time. Bronya's IQ was quite high, especially if there was a sudden stop... Tsk tsk, that's the charm of a motorcycle.

So, when Bronya said she was an experienced driver, she might not have just been saying it casually.

The Heavy-duty Rabbit roared out, and Shen Gonglin felt a sudden weightlessness, a symptom caused by the supersonic speed. Tlaloc's attack came head-on, and just as Shen Gonglin had expected, Bronya didn't even think about dodging. A blue barrier gathered and unfolded at the front of the Heavy-duty Rabbit, like an extremely sharp sword. Bronya, driving the Heavy-duty Rabbit with Shen Gonglin, crashed directly through Tlaloc's arm. Not only that, the motorcycle continued to charge forward without slowing down. Tlaloc's tough body was crushed like tofu under such an impact. Shen Gonglin had rushed past, looked back and saw that Tlaloc had been smashed through half of his body by Bronya.

Bronya seems to harbor a violent heart that could kill someone.

Chapter 176 Bronya, the Herrscher of Reason

Is that it?

Holding Bronya's waist, the biting wind made it hard for Shen Gonglin to open his eyes. He turned around and saw that Tlaloc had been nearly half-destroyed by Bronya's impact. This was truly the simplest and most extreme form of violence. He was still thinking about analyzing the quantum space before launching an attack, while Bronya had already completed the analysis in the blink of an eye and defeated the enemy with such a method... Bronya's mind was indeed more powerful than his own. Entrusting analysis to her was definitely the right thing to do.

"Not yet. Quantum beings are not so easily destroyed. Their core is not in their heads. To eliminate them, we must destroy them all. Shen Gonglin, hold Bronya tight. The real attack is coming."

As if sensing Shen Gonglin's confusion, the girl spoke softly. Shen Gonglin was slightly taken aback. He had already hugged her tightly. If he hugged her any tighter, he was afraid that Bronya's slender waist wouldn't be able to support him. And what did she mean by "real attack"?

Before Shen Gonglin could think further, he felt himself plummeting downwards. The motorcycle that Heavy-duty Rabbit had transformed into began to disintegrate, and the massive half-body mecha returned to its original form. Without the support of the motorcycle, Bronya and Shen Gonglin fell from the sky. Shen Gonglin, who had forgotten about his fear of heights, suddenly remembered it again. No wonder Bronya had told him to hold on tight; she had known all along that this would happen!

"It's alright, don't worry."

The girl reached out one arm to hug Shen Gonglin, while her other hand grasped the hand of the Heavy-duty Rabbit, performing a graceful turn in mid-air. At this moment, Bronya had fully accepted the power of the Herrscher of Reason. Surrounded by the Heavy Heavy-duty Rabbit, the girl holding Shen Gonglin Rin floated in the air, revealing her new form. A gorgeous blue and white dress appeared on Bronya, with long, naturally wavy hair reaching her waist. Orange earrings added a touch of maturity to this young girl, while the crown on one side of her head added a sense of majesty to Bronya.

The new Herrscher of Reason, Bronya Zaychek, has arrived.

"So beautiful..."

Holding Bronya's waist, Shen Gonglin was the closest person to witnessing Bronya's transformation. Upon hearing Shen Gonglin's words, a smile quietly appeared on the girl's porcelain-like face. No one dislikes hearing such compliments, especially when they come from Shen Gonglin. Am I really that pretty? Well, if Shen Gonglin said it, it must be true.

"Shen Gonglin, remember what Bronya told you when you were playing the game? All fear stems from insufficient firepower, whether it's Biohazard 7 or Biohazard 8. Now Bronya is going to prove you right. Within range, I am the truth!"

Eager to demonstrate her true power before Shen Gonglin, Bronya's mind stirred, and the trajectory she had been taking while piloting the Heavy-duty Rabbit changed completely. The structural energy she had left behind began to transform under Bronya control, and countless blue and white cannons appeared in the sky. The Herrscher of Reason can construct anything, but she needs to understand all the structures beforehand. Perhaps Bronya is not yet proficient in other things, but Bronya is extremely familiar with the weapons she uses for attack.

"Since I am the truth, then Bronya will name these weapons the Key of Reason!"

At Bronya's command, blue lasers converged on the overwhelming Key of Reason, all targeting only one thing: Tlaloc, who was temporarily incapacitated within it. This must be the Serpent's familiar. This attack signified her declaration of war against the Serpent. Just wait, she would definitely rescue Seele. This was what she and Seele had agreed upon!

The star ring symbolizing the Herrscher appeared in Bronya's pupils. All the Key of Reason aimed and fired, and a massive explosion resounded throughout the entire space. Just before the explosion, Shen Gonglin had already buried his head in Bronya's chest. Now, he clung to Bronya like a koala. He wasn't considering losing face at all. After all, this was Bronya. Losing face in front of her didn't matter. Kiana's Herrscher problem hadn't been solved yet, and now even Bronya had become Herrscher... Hopefully, nothing else will go wrong in the future.

Shen Gonglin vaguely remembered that they had come to fight against the Honkai and the Herrscher at the beginning, but now they were fighting alongside the Herrscher. As expected, people eventually become the kind of people they hate the most.

The artillery fire cleared out the enemy, leaving only the wreckage of Tlaloc after the smoke and dust cleared. Shen Gonglin sneaked a peek and almost fainted from the sheer height. She decided to just hold Bronya tighter. Who would have thought that Tlaloc, who had caused her so much trouble, would die in a traffic accident? First, she'd run him half to death, then bombard him with artillery fire. As expected of Bronya, this little girl was just her type!

"Shen Gonglin, Bronya finally has the power to protect you. This time, Bronya will use her power to rescue Seele. This time, Bronya can do anything."

Slowly descending from the sky, Tlaloc's remains vanished in specks of light. Bronya easily released Shen Gonglin, her grey eyes filled with confidence as she looked at Shen Gonglin. Since the War of Schicksal, Bronya had increasingly felt her own lack of combat power. In many battles, she could only serve as an information support, watching Shen Gonglin and the headmistress fight on the front lines. But now, Bronya had finally gained the power to protect others. She would use this power to rescue Seele; Bronya felt she could do it.

"Um, I feel like you've suddenly planted a flag. I hope I'm just overthinking it. But you're right, we really should go and bring that little girl back now. I can sense that the path to the Sea of Quantum has been opened. We should be able to reach the Sea of Quantum by passing through this corridor... Bronya, what are you doing?"

Only after standing firmly on solid ground did Shen Gonglin feel at ease. Possessing the abilities of the Herrscher of the Void, he was extremely sensitive to the fluctuations in this space. He and Bronya were currently in a rift within the Sea of Quantum, just like in reality. Seele was currently in the Sea of Quantum. After defeating Tlaloc, the rift had reopened. Having confirmed this, Shen Gonglin prepared to set off. Meanwhile, Bronya had transformed her Heavy-duty Rabbit into a motorcycle. This girl, was she addicted to speeding?

I already said she doesn't have a driver's license; driving like that could easily get her car impounded.

"Shen Gonglin, get in the car. Leave everything to Bronya. All you need to do now is rest."

The girl leaned over the motorcycle and patted the back seat. Her small legs, wrapped in white stockings, supported the motorcycle beneath her elegant dress, giving off a strange feeling. From the way she attacked earlier, Shen Gonglin could tell that beneath Bronya's quiet exterior, there was actually a fiery heart.

"...In short, just drive properly on the ground. Don't go flying around recklessly, don't brake suddenly, don't speed, and do you have a helmet? I feel safety is still essential..."

Shen Gonglin kept nagging, which Bronya found increasingly annoying. He was always the least safety-conscious one around. From Shen Gonglin's reaction, Bronya sensed his deep distrust of her driving skills. How could she possibly have an accident with her abilities? Although she didn't have a motorcycle license, Bronya did have a mecha piloting license. Piloting a mecha was definitely more difficult than riding a motorcycle. Honestly, at a time like this, she shouldn't waste her breath; she should just hold onto her waist tightly.

Helmet? I'm the Herrscher of Reason now. Wearing a helmet... it feels so embarrassing for Herrscher.

So the girl reached out and pulled Shen Gonglin up. Bronya took his hand and placed it on her waist, then started the motorcycle. The mischievous girl twisted the throttle to the limit. Shen Gonglin, who wanted to say something, couldn't utter a word. He could only bury his face in Bronya's back. Oh no, the world has changed. Even Bronya doesn't listen to him anymore. Everyone's gone astray... I guess only Mei and Theresa are still good kids now.

Mei, I've missed you. But this Bronya... I'll strangle you to death!

"Um... Shen Gonglin, move your hand down a little, Bronya... is a little uncomfortable like this."

The car slowed down slightly, and the girl who had been speeding suddenly blushed. She looked down and saw that Shen Gonglin's hand, which had been on her waist, had quietly moved up a little. Didn't he say to be careful? If this continued, Bronya was worried that they would crash and die.

It's not impossible for two lives to be lost in one car accident.

"Huh? What did you say?"

Even though he could clearly hear Bronya's words, Shen Gonglin pretended not to hear them. At the same time, he moved his hand up a little more. That's right, he did it on purpose. Who told Bronya to dare to speed and scare him? This is karma. Anyway, Shen Gonglin has no intention of letting go now. That's life. You'll just have to get used to it.

"...It's nothing, sit tight, Bronya is going to speed up."

Realizing that Shen Gonglin was doing this on purpose, Bronya bit her lip and sped up again. "If you're so capable, then don't let go. Let's see who can hold out the longest in the end. Come on, let's hurt each other!"

Whoever stops first is a dog!

Chapter 177

In Sky City, while Shen Gonglin and Bronya were fighting in the Sea of Quantum, the battle here had not stopped either. Or rather, as long as the Honkai existed, this battle would never end. The difference was that Bronya and Shen Gonglin could rely on each other in the battle over there, but here, Kiana was all alone.

"I guess this is over now..."

Exhausted, Kiana lowered her gun, clutching her head and leaning against the wall to calm the surging Honkai energy within her. Her once clean and fair face was now covered in soot, and even her white braids looked frizzy. However, Kiana was in no mood to clean herself up. The surging Honkai energy within her was constantly assaulting her consciousness. If she didn't adjust herself soon, her body would probably be taken over by another consciousness. It was really... incredibly annoying.

Kiana's time to maintain a clear mind and fight was getting shorter and shorter, but the enemies were coming one after another like countless locusts. Kiana had to fight, because in her view, it was atonement. But fighting would inevitably involve using Honkai energy. From the initial thirty minutes to the current ten minutes, this was already the limit she could hold on for. If she continued to fight, there was a risk that her body would be taken over. Rather than that, she would rather die in the first place.

Leaning against the wall, Kiana recalled that person's teachings. She had said that if a comrade lost her mind and was controlled by Honkai, then she should end her life without hesitation. But why couldn't she do it when it actually happened? Was it really worth paying such a high price to survive until now?

"Himeko... I miss you so much..."
