Chapter 73

...Damn, I knew this guy wasn't human. Shen Gonglin, calling him a hypocrite is an understatement!

Kiana was so angry she almost had ten bulges on her forehead. He was giving back all the emotion she had just felt. Kiana was so angry she almost laughed. This guy... Shen Gonglin has always been good at being inhuman. Since he doesn't intend to be human anymore, then there's no need for her to keep putting on a show, right?

Kiana's smile gradually turned wicked as she gripped the rope around her waist tightly. This was the bridge connecting the two of them, like a red thread. How could Kiana allow the red thread to break? Besides, the connection between her and Shen Gonglin was not comparable to that fragile red thread. The one used by the young lady of the Kaslana family was a hemp rope!

"Ah!"

Kiana, who was acting like Honkai Beast, struggled to pull on the rope around her waist. With the Shen Gonglin, who didn't have time to untie the rope, was suddenly pulled into the sky. A blood-curdling scream rang out. Shen Gonglin was suffering from acrophobia, was suddenly pulled into the air. Tears streamed down the boy's face. He knew that coming out with Kiana was never a good thing!

The Honkai Beast soared into the sky, its instincts driving it to ignore the two people clinging to it. The intense Honkai energy emanating from the black warship in the air attracted it. As Kiana increased in altitude, she also noticed the warship in the sky, as if she had realized something. This warship... well, now is not the time to focus on this. Shen Gonglin is too noisy.

Kiana, who was determined to share joys and Shen Gonglin with Shen Gonglin, pulled him over with the rope. How could she let Shen Gonglin be left alone down there? Even in this situation, she had to pull Shen Gonglin along. However, the guy was just screaming and making a lot of noise. Couldn't he be a little quieter? It's only a little bit higher. Look at me, I'm not afraid at all.

Once he reached a high altitude, Shen Gonglin was completely unable to save himself. At this height, Shen Gonglin was utterly helpless. His limbs were stiff and he couldn't do anything. He couldn't even close his eyes. All Shen Gonglin could do now was scream. Although he wasn't a big guy, he had a loud voice. Even at this high speed, his screams were still very clear.

That was terrifying! This is something no human should ever experience. I was so scared.

Shen Gonglin was already terrified when Kiana led her off the Hyperion, but compared to this time, Shen Gonglin found it easier to accept. After all, it was just a matter of burying her head in Kiana's chest. But this time was different. There was only a rope connecting her and Kiana, and the Honkai Beast was flying very erratically. The up-and-down motion finally became unbearable for Shen Gonglin. She should have known better than to eat those ice creams and snacks. Now she felt like throwing up!

Finally unable to hold it in any longer, Shen Gonglin vomited due to an extreme stress reaction. After being held by Kiana and urinating last time, Shen Gonglin was tied up with ropes and vomited in the air like a kite. Hopefully, there was no one below. Shen Gonglin really didn't mean to do this.

"My God, Shen Gonglin, what happened to you... Come here right now... Are you alright?"

Kiana was startled by Shen Gonglin's reaction. For the moment, she couldn't care less about her own situation. She pulled on the rope and tried to pull Kite Rin back. Was this guy really that afraid of heights? It felt like he was about to lose his mind. Would this guy die? Come on, he couldn't just give up like this.

He had lost consciousness. The light in Shen Gonglin's deep purple eyes had vanished. He was like a walking corpse. Kiana, a little worried, quickly hugged him. No way, she hadn't meant to do this to Shen Gonglin. People who aren't afraid of heights don't know how scared people with a fear of heights really are.

"Wake up, wake up... Shen Gonglin, wake up quickly, or I'm going to touch you!"

Despite such a brutal threat, Shen Gonglin remained completely unresponsive. Kiana, not believing it, reached out and touched him several times. It seemed he wasn't faking it; he genuinely had no reaction. But this wouldn't do.

"Shen Gonglin, wake up!"

In a moment of desperation, Kiana opened her mouth and bit Shen Gonglin's head again. This girl had somehow fallen in love with this feeling; Shen Gonglin's head tasted amazing. Kiana felt she could bite it for fun all the time. However, this time Kiana was doing it to wake Shen Gonglin. If she didn't find a way, the two of them might be sent to Earth by this Honkai Beast.

"Ouch! It hurts so much... Ahhhh! It's so high..."

Shen Gonglin, was brought back to her senses by Kiana's bite. When she came to her senses, she saw the height she was at. Shen Gonglin was almost scared to death again. It was already a great effort that Shen Gonglin didn't wet herself. It was as if every cell in her body was afraid of this height. Shen Gonglin was serious about her fear of heights. She was really, really scared.

"Don't faint yet, hurry up and think of something, what are we going to do now... Okay, it seems we don't need to think of anything. Shen Gonglin, do you have any special requirements for dying from a fall?"

Kiana quickly shook Shen Gonglin's shoulder to keep him from fainting. She wanted to say something more to Shen Gonglin, but the Honkai Beast that had been carrying the two of them for a long time made a new move. Its purplish-red gaze locked onto Shen Gonglin and Kiana. It turned out that the Honkai Beast was also vengeful. It remembered clearly the damage that Shen Gonglin and Kiana had caused it before, and now that the two of them were still clinging to it, it would be a disservice to itself not to take their lives.

The Honkai Beast displayed strange patterns. Kiana, who had fought it before, knew what was coming next. Sure enough, the halo surrounding the Honkai Beast contracted and condensed towards the location of Shen Gonglin and Kiana. The Valkyrie gritted her teeth. Her previous nonsensical words were a warning to Shen Gonglin. Although getting off the Honkai Beast would have terrible consequences, staying here would only lead to death.

Rather than waiting to die, Kiana would clearly choose another path.

Holding Shen Gonglin, Kiana slammed into the Honkai Beast, using its momentum to leap far away. Her movements, no less impressive than those of a gymnastics champion, were as easy as eating and drinking for her. Although she didn't know what the consequences would be, it didn't stop Kiana from making faces at the Honkai Beast. "I'd rather die than die at your hands, aren't you angry?"

Kiana made a cute face and hugged Shen Gonglin tightly. What happened next... didn't matter. Kiana was confident that the two of them would be fine!

Chapter 289

The two fell rapidly, clinging to each other. The howling wind made Kiana almost unable to open her eyes, but she had to do something. As everyone knows, humans can't fly. Kiana initially thought of using the building to absorb the impact, as she had done before, but the landing conditions below clearly didn't suit that method. If she fell like this... even though the Valkyrie's physical abilities were decent, she would probably be dead if she hit the ground like that.

So I should protect him a little. After all, it's my fault this time... No, at most it's just a little bit of her fault. The biggest problem is that Shen Gonglin isn't good enough. If he were good enough, they wouldn't have run into this kind of trouble.

"Hey, Shen Gonglin, do you know how fast cherry blossoms fall...?"

Kiana is naturally thick-skinned; even at a time like this, she still has time to say such things to Shen Gonglin. In this respect, Kiana and Shen Gonglin really do get along well. They're both carefree. Even when they're in dire straits, Kiana still feels no fear. As long as she's with him, for some reason, Kiana isn't afraid at all.

"Sakura my foot! What are we supposed to do now? Say something, you son of a bitch!"

With his arms tightly wrapped around Kiana's waist, Shen Gonglin held herself tightly against her. But Shen Gonglin didn't have time to appreciate the girl's beautiful figure. This girl was not only afraid of heights but also afraid of death. This couldn't go on; dying from a fall was just too painful.

"It's alright, it's all according to my plan. You don't need to worry. Look, this is a small Honkai reactor behind me. It just needs to be activated when we're close to the ground. We can use the reactor's thrust to counteract the force of the fall... Well, the principle is the same as jumping up when an elevator is falling. Shen Gonglin, don't worry, just leave everything to me."

Kiana proudly raised her head as she explained her plan to Shen Gonglin. "Smart, right? No wonder it was your idea. This way, both I and Shen Gonglin will be fine."

"It's completely different! What's wrong with your brain? Jumping in an elevator is totally useless. Think of something else!"

What nonsense is this guy spouting? Maybe her Valkyrie physique can handle this kind of operation, but Shen Gonglin's weak body can't. He's just a normal, healthy person at best. His body definitely couldn't take it. If Kiana wants to kill him, she should just say so. Why beat around the bush like this?

"Hey, my method is clearly very effective. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand... If you say my method won't work, then think of a better one. I'm listening. If you can't find a solution, then listen to me. Don't worry, I'll be there to cushion your fall. With my figure, I can definitely guarantee your safety. Is that alright?"

Kiana was quite confident in her figure. As long as Shen Gonglin didn't move around too much, there shouldn't be any major problems. She didn't have the kind of body that would hurt someone, like the Class President or Bronya. Kiana felt that she was quite flexible. So, in conclusion, she felt that she should be able to protect Shen Gonglin without any major issues. Kiana wasn't worried at all.

"Uh, this is... well, what a joke!" Yes, Shen Gonglin admitted that Kiana's figure was indeed quite good, but Shen Gonglin refused to rely on it to save her life. Perhaps it would work with Himeko, but Kiana didn't have much confidence Shen Gonglin Kiana. Furthermore... while Kiana certainly bore some responsibility for the current situation, the culprit was undoubtedly that Honkai Beast. Shen Gonglin was petty and always sought revenge; how could she possibly let that Honkai Beast escape!

"Tsk, I knew you were useless. Just you wait. All you have to do now is hold on tight to me. It's time to show you my true strength!"

After saying this, Shen Gonglin closed his eyes before Kiana could react. He hadn't wanted to act like this in front of Kiana, as it was too shameful. However, when his life was threatened, Shen Gonglin decisively abandoned his principles. In his eyes, this thing was about as valuable as his food reserves.

[Play with the Universal Angel outfit for fun and entertainment. Begin dressing up.]

She mentally summoned the Angel Suit. After retrieving the Universal Angel armor from the Schicksal Headquarters, she stored it within her body. Whenever needed, Shen Gonglin could summon it at any time, and it was an all-powerful one-click outfit changer. If the armor hadn't been so embarrassing, Shen Gonglin would have wanted to summon it every day. After all, one-click outfit changers are a man's romance.

Sensing what had happened to Shen Gonglin in her arms, Kiana looked down and her eyes widened in surprise. Shen Gonglin's brilliant blonde hair had somehow been tinged with pink, his short, dazzling gold hair now a soft, long pink. His clothes had also changed drastically; the cat-patterned hoodie he'd stolen was gone, replaced by a bright white suit of armor. Then, a pair of enormous pink wings unfurled from Shen Gonglin's back, scattering white feathers as they flapped, which then swirled around the two of them. An angel! Shen Gonglin had truly become an angel!

Kiana's eyes glazed over, and the girl's thoughts seemed to drift back to the past. When she first met Shen Gonglin, he was in the same posture. At that time, Shen Gonglin's appearance when he descended had a great impact on Kiana's heart. It was at that moment that Shen Gonglin's image was firmly engraved in Kiana's heart. Sure enough, Shen Gonglin, it was Shen Gonglin!

"What are you standing there for? Give me directions! I... I can't look!"

With wings fluttering, Shen Gonglin hovered in mid-air with Kiana in tow. Kiana was lost in thought, while Shen Gonglin pitifully and slowly raised his head from her arms. Although he could fly in this state, his fear of heights had no necessary connection with whether he could fly or not. He could see the surrounding environment as soon as he looked up. Shen Gonglin was so startled that his wings almost cramped up. What was Kiana daydreaming about? She wasn't afraid of heights.

"Huh... huh? Which direction are you pointing in?"

It still seems different. Looking at Shen Gonglin's eyes, which had turned emerald green, Kiana suddenly remembered before. Back then, Shen Gonglin's eyes should have been crimson. Although her hair and eye color had changed, Shen Gonglin's face was still the same. It was just that she looked completely like a girl in this state, so Kiana found it a little hard to accept. This should only be a change in her hair and eye color, right? Shen Gonglin should... still be male, right?

While pondering this matter, Kiana didn't immediately realize what Shen Gonglin was talking about—pointing in a direction? What direction was she pointing in?

"Of course, it's the direction that Honkai Beast escaped in. It forced me into this situation, there's no reason to let it go. It has to be killed. Besides, if we let Honkai Beast of that level go, who knows how much disaster it will cause? So we have to deal with it as soon as possible. Can you point me in the direction? I'm a little afraid to look here."

"It's still so high," Shen Gonglin, lowering his head again to rest his head against Kiana's chest. In this cold world, only this place could give him a little warmth. But even so, he didn't intend to let that Honkai Beast go. It was all that guy's fault now. Shen Gonglin wouldn't be satisfied until he killed him. He only needed to focus on flying, and Kiana could handle the direction.

...Even if she can fly, she still has a fear of heights? This Shen Gonglin is just too cute.

Kiana almost couldn't help but laugh. As expected of Shen Gonglin, even in his current state, he was still the same Shen Gonglin. He was just too adorable. Kiana was already used to his intimate gestures. Shen Gonglin was right. There was no reason to let that Honkai Beast go. Such a high-level Honkai Beast was quite rare. How could she not do herself a favor by defeating it? Also, that warship was extremely suspicious. She had to go up and investigate it.

"Got it, now let's move it up a bit, and a little to the right... Idiot, it's to the right, the hand you use to hold chopsticks when you eat!"

"I can manage with both hands... This way, right? Hold me tight, or I'll start to panic."

He started yelling in the air. This guy was so bad at directions that he couldn't tell left from right. Kiana directed Shen Gonglin to slowly approach the warship. Kiana hugged Shen Gonglin. This guy's armor was really... well, it was too revealing. So cute, I even felt like I was going to get a nosebleed.

Calm down, I like men... No, Shen Gonglin is a man, but I also like women, like Mei... But Shen Gonglin looks like a girl right now, so it's true that she's okay no matter what. This Shen Gonglin is amazing, she completely satisfies my aesthetic sense.

I love it!

This warship is indeed very strange.

Red high heels clattered on the bridge, the cold blade almost reflecting the girl's icy gaze. Her purple eyes fixed on the Honkai Beast before her, and with a flash of silver light from her small katana, the Honkai Beast vanished instantly. Raiden Mei exuded a powerful aura in battle. In her daily life, she was as gentle as an older sister, but in battle, Raiden Mei was an undisputed Valkyrie.

It seems to be attracting Honkai Beast at all times, and there really isn't a single person there. Not even the engine is running. It's as if it suddenly appeared in Canghai City out of nowhere. Is the purpose of this warship to crash in Canghai City? If it's meant to destroy the city, wouldn't bombs or something similar be better?

I really don't understand.

"Mei, judging from the construction style of this warship, it should be a product of Anti-Entropy, there's no doubt about it."

Bronya's voice came through the earpiece. Mei had contacted Bronya after boarding the warship. Bronya was currently breaking through the warship's internal defenses at the stern. To control the warship, they needed to enter the command center, which was even more necessary after learning that it was a product of Anti-Entropy.

Schicksal and Anti-Entropy are hostile organizations. With such a large warship, who knows what Anti-Entropy is planning to do?

"Well, Bronya, how much more time do you need? We need to speed things up."

To give Bronya a good opportunity to break through, Mei was clearing out the Honkai Beast here. As members of the Fifth Squad and close sisters, the two worked together well, each fulfilling their duties. However, as time went on, Mei became increasingly worried. After all, there was a city beneath this warship, and the loss of manpower and resources if it fell would be beyond what a number could describe.

"Yes, Bronya will work harder to crack it, Mei... Be careful, there's a Honkai energy reaction approaching at lightning speed, Mei, please be very careful!"

At the stern of the warship, Bronya knelt on the ground, using her Heavy-duty Rabbit to connect to the hatch and hack into the device. The bright red dot on the computer screen made the girl's calm gray eyes widen in astonishment. This level of Mei Honkai energy reaction meant that Mei was probably in danger. Damn it, why couldn't she contact Kiana and the others at a time like this? What were she and Shen Gonglin doing? Communication was cut off. Could they have encountered some kind of accident?

"Okay, Bronya, focus on solving the puzzle. Leave this to me."

Mei's voice remained calm. She gripped the katana in reverse and lowered her body slightly. Without Bronya's reminder, she had already seen the Honkai Beast not far away. The pressure it exerted was completely different from that of the Honkai Beast around her. It seemed that this level of Honkai Beast would be a challenge for her.

We might have to use that person's power.

Mei turned off her headphones, took a deep breath, and opened her Valkyrie again in battle mode. Her purple pupils gleamed with an indescribable sharpness. Using that power would definitely trigger the bomb in her chest, but during its activation period, she could fight to her heart's content. She would try to defeat this Honkai Beast during that time. Mei felt immense pressure emanating from the jet-black Honkai Beast. With her current strength, she absolutely couldn't defeat it, and the suppression device prevented her from using that power to fight freely... Never mind, now, this was all she had.

"Go to hell, you scum!"

Purple arcs of electricity flashed around Mei, transforming the once gentle and mature woman into a majestic Queen of Thunder. The countdown also sounded in Mei's ears at the right moment. As the lightning streaked across the sky, the girl seized the opportunity to launch her attack. She had to be quick!

Chapter 290 Feeling utterly wronged.

Lightning flashed, and the girl transformed into a purple lightning bolt, speeding across the battlefield. In this state, Mei's personality had changed, and even her combat power had undergone a dramatic transformation. What should have been a tough battle for her was now gradually shifting. Apart from the Honkai Emperor in the distance, the other Honkai Beast and Suicide Squad were no match for her. However, the girl's brows slowly furrowed. Although it seemed that the battlefield was now under her control, she knew the truth.

All of this is controlled by time.

[The restriction process has started; countdown: 60 seconds.]

The sound rang out from the girl. Mei looked down at her chest, where there was a miniature bomb. Mei had known about the existence of this bomb for a long time, since it was implanted into her body with her consent. It was to prevent her from becoming like she was at the Senba Academy. It was a restriction program, a device to prevent her from being invaded by another personality. Although her current state was very strong, it was also a state that Mei could not control. If she did not exit this state as soon as possible, this miniature bomb would be enough to end her life.

However, it seems that ending the battle within sixty seconds will be a little difficult.

Mei looked up ahead. If it were just that one Honkai Emperor, perhaps she could give it a try. But now there was more than just one on the battlefield. With flashes of light, another Suicide Squad was about to invest was killed by Mei's backhand slash. With the appearance of that Honkai Emperor, the rest of the Honkai Beast seemed to be commanded by something to gather together. It was as if half the sky was blocked by Honkai Beast, and the Suicide Squad on the bridge were also densely packed. Unbeknownst to her, the balance of the battlefield had changed again. Mei had unknowingly fallen into a fierce battle once more.

To be honest, Mei doesn't take this level of Honkai Beast and Suicide Squad Mei seriously. But sometimes, quantity can make all the difference. Especially when you don't have the combat power to eliminate everything, these scum alone can hold out until you're out of this state. Once you're out of this state... well, now's not the time to think about that. What you can do now is to do your best to eliminate these things.

I wonder what Kiana and Shen Gonglin are doing right now. If they could come to our aid... no, it would be better if they didn't. In the current situation, even if they were there, it wouldn't make a difference.

The blade, crafted from refined iron, remained sharp as Mei darted across the battlefield. But the ticking countdown was unsettling the girl. Just as she suspected, the time limit wasn't enough for Mei to eliminate everything. And if she continued to kill recklessly... no, she would surely die. And if she died, she would never see Kiana again... or even Shen Gonglin.

A face flashed through Mei's mind. Mei had thought she didn't value life that much, but now the girl clearly realized how precious life is. If she died temporarily, she would have nothing left. Mei didn't want that kind of ending. Therefore, Mei didn't want to give up life at all.

[Procedure in progress, countdown: three seconds, two seconds... Procedure removed.]

At the last moment, Mei deliberately deactivated her state, and the death-defying countdown stopped. This thing restricted her from using that person's power. The longer she used it, the less likely Mei's personality would awaken. Within this countdown, Mei could still control it. If she exceeded this time... forget about it. As soon as she exceeded the time limit, the bomb in her chest would detonate. This was an outcome Mei did not want.

With her combat power drastically reduced, the originally easy battle suddenly became difficult. The blade in her hand, which was once as light as a cicada's wing, became heavy. Mei and continued to fight. She could only blame herself for not training enough. If she were stronger, she should be able to escape now even without using that person's power.

As if sensing Mei's declining condition, the Honkai Emperor, which had been observing from the periphery of the battlefield, suddenly joined the fight. Honkai Beast of this level already possessed obvious combat intelligence. A purplish-red light, like infrared guidance, restricted Mei's movements. With interference from Suicide Squad on the ground and attacks from the Honkai Emperor and other Honkai Beast in the air, Mei's room for maneuver was shrinking. Logically, she should be fighting to the death now, but Mei... she had a feeling that there was still a chance for things to turn around.

"Mei, I'm here to save you!"

Mei was momentarily stunned and the Suicide Squad seized the opportunity. When Mei came to her senses, she only saw the Suicide Squad's blade slashing down. The girl gritted her teeth and tried to turn around to catch the blow with her arm, hoping to exchange injury for life. Just then, a vibrant voice rang out behind Mei, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps. Kiana appeared on the battlefield like a knight rescuing a princess.

With a flying kick, the Kaslana family's young lady, possessing exceptional physical skills, swatted away the Suicide Squad who had ambushed Mei. Her azure eyes gleamed with joy. She hadn't expected Mei to be on this warship. Seeking revenge on that Honkai Beast was definitely the right thing to do; this was truly an unexpected delight.

"Kiana? What brings you here? Did Major Himeko send you to provide support...? Are you alone?"

With Kiana's arrival, the battlefield became noticeably more relaxed, but Mei's attention gradually drifted away from the battlefield. Why was only Kiana there? Shouldn't Shen Gonglin be with her? The two Valkyrie stood back to back, each wary of the enemies in front of them. Mei didn't necessarily need Shen Gonglin to come, but it was really worrying to leave her alone. And Kiana was so unreliable. Yes, Mei was indeed happy that Mei could come to help, but where Shen Gonglin?

Kiana probably lost him again. It's not good to leave Shen Gonglin alone. I should have known better than to pair him with Kiana. Mei can only feel at ease when she's with him.

"What do you mean it's just me... Oh, Mei, you mean Shen Gonglin Jingu? Look up, I knew it, that guy must be super powerful!"

The girl's voice was filled with indescribable excitement. Even though she was now surrounded by Honkai Beast, Kiana was so happy that she felt like she could fly. As expected of Shen Gonglin, he was the angel who had always been in her heart!

Shen Gonglin is amazing? Kiana always complains that Shen Gonglin is useless, and he's nowhere near being described as amazing. Like Kiana, Mei Shen Gonglin mostly as a mascot. He's on the battlefield too? Kiana says, "Look up... that... that's Shen Gonglin!"

Kiana raised her head at her words, and when Mei saw the figure with outstretched wings in the air, her eyes widened in surprise. Mei had seen this figure before; it was Shen Gonglin from their first encounter—pink hair, white armor, a halo above her head, pink wings, and the tear in her eye...

Huh? Tears? Why are there tears in her Shen Gonglin crying?

The girl had excellent eyesight; she could clearly see Shen Gonglin's eyes in the air, which gleamed with an eerie light, and her emerald green pupils were brimming with tears. What was wrong? Why did Shen Gonglin look so aggrieved? Had someone bullied him again?

"Kiana, you're not even human! You're the epitome of a womanizer! Waaaaah... Permanent Air-to-Air Missile, fire!"

Cursing at yet another inhuman bastard, Shen Gonglin struggled to lift his head. It wasn't that he was afraid of tears; he was simply too afraid to look down. Kiana had been holding him, so he could have just kept his head down and flown, but when she saw Mei struggling, she jumped down without a word. Shen Gonglin left flying alone in the air. Flying alone at that height was practically killing him, but to resolve the crisis, he had to maintain his angel form. So... it was all Kiana's fault!

A tearful voice echoed through the sky as countless missiles shot out from Shen Gonglin's enormous pink wings. This tactic proved quite effective against such a wide-ranging enemy. Her green pupils gradually turned crimson, a sign that the Universal Angel Set had entered combat mode. At the same time, light gathered in Shen Gonglin's hand, forming a golden longbow. The Permanent Air-to-Air Missile were fine for dealing with the other Honkai Beast, but the Honkai Emperor in the distance, which seemed to be trying to escape, required Shen Gonglin's personal attention. This thing wouldn't be any harder to deal with than Durandal; two percent of her effort should be enough to take it down.

The higher the percentage, the greater the burden on Shen Gonglin's body, but two percent is fine.

"The Ultimate Weapon, Apollon."

The eyes, glowing red, locked onto the Honkai Emperor in the distance. Shen Gonglin drew her bowstring and released it easily. The swift light arrow struck the Honkai Emperor accurately. Besides Kiana, this thing was also the culprit. If it weren't for it, how could Shen Gonglin have flown so high!

"This... is amazing..."

Mei stared at what was happening before her, her mouth slightly agape in disbelief. Her purple eyes were filled with the light from the explosion. Was this Shen Gonglin's true strength? The situation that had just put her in such a difficult battle was completely wiped out in an instant. Only now did Mei truly understand Shen Gonglin's strength. Was this the power of an S-rank? She had always treated Shen Gonglin like a mascot, but it seemed she had been too naive.

"Right? I think it's amazing too, but it's still not as amazing as mine. Sooner or later, I will definitely be even more amazing than Shen Gonglin."

Kiana stood proudly with her hands on her hips, even happier than Shen Gonglin Kiana displaying such power. It was as if she were showing off her most prized possession. Kiana pointed at Shen Gonglin in the air with great joy. Seeing Shen Gonglin like this filled Kiana with motivation. Right now, it seemed that Shen Gonglin was indeed stronger, but the girl firmly believed that one day she would be stronger than Shen Gonglin!

Maybe.

"She's really strong... Hey, Kiana, something seems wrong. Shen Gonglin, something's wrong, she's falling!"

Mei murmured to herself, "Has Mei Shen Gonglin revealed his true power this time?" Seeing Shen Gonglin like this, Mei couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions. Should she change her attitude towards him? Shen Gonglin wasn't someone who needed protection; he was stronger and more powerful than anyone else. With these thoughts in mind, Mei found that she couldn't take her eyes off Shen Gonglin, and it was precisely because of this that she was able to notice that Shen Gonglin's condition was not right at the first moment.
