Honkai Impact Chapter 5

Fu Hua also looked up at the sky. Faced with the sudden appearance of the unfamiliar mech, she didn't choose to attack rashly. Besides, the enemy was in the sky, and a rash attack wouldn't be wise!

"Heh, there's no need to tell you who I am!"

The crimson mech continued to laugh, then said, "But what I want to say is, it's too selfish for St. Freya Academy to discover good things and not tell us. So, someone hired me to help her retrieve something!"

A sharp glint flashed in Fu Hua's eyes. It seemed this matter had leaked...

"Then, Lord Fu Hua, please play with my pet for a while!" With that said, the crimson mech raised its blade arm and slashed down at Fu Hua from the sky...

"So fast?"

Fu Hua dodged the attack, her face almost brushing against it. This mech's... speed was truly astonishing, so fast it didn't seem like a mech at all...

"Class President!"

Mei also seemed to sense the danger and hurried to help...

"Don't come over! Go to the third vehicle and retrieve the password box. That's the top priority!"

As Mei and the others were about to help, Fu Hua spoke first, and she herself once again faced the remaining Anti-Entropy mechs!

"Password box? Understood!"

Mei's voice came through the headset, and the three of them rushed towards the third vehicle. Although they didn't know what the password box the class mentioned was, following orders was the most important thing right now!

Then, Fu Hua and the crimson mech began to fight. The three Valkyries of Team 233 set off towards the third vehicle. However, besides the crimson mech, there were other Anti-Entropy mechs. While the crimson mech was holding Fu Hua back, the remaining mechs had already surrounded the three of them!

"Damn it, these blasted mechs again!"

Surrounded by the mechs, Kiana was furious, but anger was useless. It was just impotent rage. With her current strength, she was helpless against these mechs!

"Kiana, don't get distracted, focus on the fight!"

Compared to Kiana, Mei wasn't doing much better. She was currently only holding her own Muramasa Katana, which had no special effects. If she could use the Pulse Katana provided by the academy, she might be able to defeat the mechs. However, she hadn't applied to carry it this time, so she could only use this most basic katana!

Among the three, the only one who could currently deal damage to the mechs was Bronya. However, Bronya was also using artillery weapons. Once her shells ran out, she could only have Project Bunny engage in close combat!

On the other side, Fu Hua was also fighting fiercely with the crimson mech. Not only was this crimson mech extremely fast, but its defense was also very high. It had taken several punches from Fu Hua, but it seemed completely unaffected...

"Ugh... why aren't the others here yet?"

Ling Feng looked around. Most people had already fled, but the other Valkyries from the academy hadn't arrived yet. Moreover, Ling Feng felt that Himeko or Theresa needed to come. At least a B-rank Valkyrie was necessary; others felt like they couldn't help much!

"Right, the password box!"

Ling Feng suddenly thought of this. Although he didn't know what the password box was, Anti-Entropy's target was undoubtedly the password box. And Fu Hua had said retrieving the password box was the top priority, so...

Now, the mechs were all fighting with the Valkyries, while he...

After all, he was an S-rank Valkyrie. Even if he couldn't use his abilities now, he had seen big scenes before and was used to such situations. Without hesitation, he ran out from behind the Anti-Entropy mech forces and quickly approached the third vehicle the class president mentioned, searching rapidly!

Password box, password box, what does it look like? What color is it?

"Hmm? This?"

Soon, Ling Feng found a black box among a pile of items. It was about a meter long, thirty centimeters wide, and about seven to eight centimeters thick. Of course, the most iconic feature was the combination lock on the box. It looked very much like a password box!

"Let's bail!"

After getting the password box, Ling Feng immediately planned to escape, but...

"Give it to me, kid!"

It was still that girl's voice, and behind Ling Feng, another crimson mech appeared, holding a laser sword in its right arm and extending its left arm towards Ling Feng. The meaning was already obvious...

Ling Feng: "..." Holy crap...

"Run!"

Ling Feng turned and fled, circling to the other side of the vehicle...

"Hmph, interesting!"

The crimson mech directly swung its sword, slicing the entire vehicle in half, roughly tossing it aside, and then lunged at Ling Feng with a sword...

"Boom..."

At the critical moment, Fu Hua appeared, her gloves flashing with a faint blue light, blocking the fatal sword strike!

"Whoosh..."

"Ah..."

But immediately after, an energy shockwave flew in from the side, hitting Fu Hua directly...

At the same time, the crimson mech raised its other arm, and the laser sword slashed towards Fu Hua...

"You wish!"

Ling Feng quickly pulled Fu Hua back while swinging the password box at the enemy. If the enemy's target was the password box, they would definitely give up attacking Fu Hua to preserve the password box. In Ling Feng's view, Fu Hua's life was clearly more precious than the so-called password box...

However, the crimson mech had no intention of stopping. The password box directly collided with the light sword...

"Bang!"

Then, accompanied by a blue shockwave, blue flames ignited the password box, completely destroying it. Ling Feng was also sent flying dozens of meters away by the shockwave...

"This is bad..."

Seeing the sorry state of the password box, Fu Hua felt speechless. Even if Ling Feng hadn't helped, she wouldn't have been in danger. But now that he had, the password box was broken. She wondered about the contents inside, and about Ling Feng. Being hit by the shockwave at such close range, he must be seriously injured…

Moreover… the current situation wasn't optimistic…

This crimson mech was too powerful. One was manageable, but two, and she was struggling. Her current equipment was nowhere near enough to defeat these two mechs!

"Ugh… that hurts…"

In the ruins, Ling Feng felt nothing but pain all over his body…

Damn it, to be beaten up by two mechs like this! When had he ever suffered such humiliation? His body hadn't felt this kind of pain in a long time… This pain… Right, I'm an S-rank Valkyrie!

Ling Feng tried to gather energy to stand up again, but his body's condition simply wouldn't allow it…

Afterward, Ling Feng touched something familiar…

"This… is a hilt?"

Ling Feng touched the familiar hilt…

"Chi You? Is that you?"

Although this sword wasn't his God-Slaying Armor, he could still use it. It was only later that he gave it to a Valkyrie with higher compatibility…

Chapter 10: God-Slaying Armor, It's Time to Show Off!

"Whoosh…"

Ling Feng tried to condense energy in his hand. As soon as the energy gathered in his hand, it was absorbed by Chi You. Finally, Chi You revealed its true form – a black, glowing, and extremely sinister-looking long sword…

Ling Feng's consciousness was directly pulled into Chi You's consciousness space…

"Yoho, long time no see, Ling Feng!"

In front of Ling Feng appeared a golden-haired older sister with black horns on her head, looking at him with a smile. "Why did you activate me? Where's Qing'er? Isn't she with you?"

Qing'er, the true wielder of Chi You, and a member of Ling Feng's squad!

And the Chi You in front of him was an Artificial Intelligence AI installed within the sword!

Because the God-Slaying Armor's power was too immense and its functions were extremely complex, Valkyries alone couldn't maximize its capabilities. Therefore, an artificial intelligence was installed within the God-Slaying Armor to control its operation with extremely high computational speed and modify its data based on the user's condition!

This way, when a Valkyrie used the God-Slaying Armor, no extra debugging was needed; everything was handed over to the AI, and the Valkyrie only needed to focus on fighting!

"I don't know, because… it's already been fifty thousand years!"

Ling Feng didn't know how to answer the question. Fifty thousand years… he'd be a fossil by now. Of course, it was possible to be sealed in an energy crystal like himself, but the chances seemed slim…

"Fifty thousand years?"

Chi You was instantly dumbfounded. After its energy was depleted, she fell into a deep sleep and was only awakened by the energy Ling Feng injected. Therefore, she didn't know how much time had passed in the outside world, because for her, an AI, tens of thousands of years was just like a nap!

"I won't talk about this with you for now. I'm in danger right now and need your power!"

Thinking of the situation in the real world, Ling Feng didn't dare to linger in the consciousness space for too long. What if the class monitor and the others were wiped out when he went out? So Ling Feng had to hurry back, and… he needed Chi You's power!

"This… this is no problem, of course, but…"

Chi You sized up Ling Feng slightly and said, "Your body probably can't withstand my power anymore…"

"Don't you have a repair function? Help me fix my body!"

Ling Feng was well aware of his physical condition, but he could ask Chi You to help repair it. Back then, to ensure the safety of the Valkyries, all God-Slaying Armors were equipped with an energy repair system that could repair the holder's body to a certain extent, which was quite a buggy ability!

"Hey, you're asking too much of me!"

Chi You felt like spitting blood. "My abilities don't extend to repairing meridians. To repair meridians, besides that guy Shennong, no one can do it!"

"As expected…"

Although Ling Feng hadn't expected Chi You to be able to repair his meridians, he still felt a bit disappointed when he heard it. It seemed he was truly destined to have no connection with being a Valkyrie in this life…

"Um, although I can't repair your meridians, I can repair your body…"

Chi You said hesitantly, "Your meridians are almost completely broken, so when you use energy, it will pass directly through your body, causing damage from energy backlash. As for me… I can repair your body, which is equivalent to saying…"

"It's equivalent to me forcibly using energy to damage my body, and you using energy to repair my body, thus achieving a balance, right?" Even though Chi You hadn't finished speaking, Ling Feng had already understood her meaning!

"That's right!"

Chi You nodded slightly. "But this will still cause irreversible damage to your body. Once or twice is fine, but if it happens too many times, you might not even have a chance to be repaired. It's like a prop; you break it, repair it, break it again, repair it again, and repeat this process. Eventually, the prop will be completely destroyed!"

"No problem, come on!"

Ling Feng agreed without even thinking, laughing. "Even so, I want to experience the feeling of being an S-rank Valkyrie again. Rather than lingering on, it's better to burn brightly. Chi You, can you construct the Valkyrie armor now?"

"Yes…"

Although Chi You didn't understand why Ling Feng wanted to do this, she still chose to follow his wishes…

"Then, Valkyrie Armor, construct!"

"Understood, God-Slaying Armor Chi You, Valkyrie Armor, construct!"

Following Chi You's command to construct the armor, the blade of Chi You began to change. A black substance emerged from it and slowly attached itself to Ling Feng, eventually forming a set of black Valkyrie armor that completely enveloped his body. Finally, it formed a set of black armor with crimson eyes, horns on its head, and black energy fluctuations all over its body. This was the God-Slaying Armor, Chi You!

"Boom!"

With the appearance of the Valkyrie armor, the entire space was swept by a hurricane. The dark clouds in the sky formed a vortex centered on Ling Feng, and golden light shot straight into the sky from the blade!

Draw sword, slash!

With a casual swing, Ling Feng leveled the ruins...

Powerful, terrifying, dark energy spread outwards, and Ling Feng, fully armed, stood before the crimson mech once again!

"Hm?"

Although she wasn't entirely sure where this strange armor came from, fighting was the right move, so the girl directly ordered an attack!

"Go!"

The first to charge were two Titan Mechs, raising their massive steel fists to strike at Ling Feng...

"Hmph!"

Ling Feng simply swung the long sword in his hand, effortlessly slicing the two Titan Mechs in half...

"Whoosh..."

Following that, several Thunder God Mechs unleashed a barrage of dense cannon fire, suppressing the area!

"Chi You, devour!"

However, Ling Feng merely pointed his blade forward. As the cannonballs approached, a black vortex suddenly appeared above his sword tip, sucking all the Thunder God Mechs' cannonballs into it...

"What the hell is that? What kind of armor is that? Experimental unit, go!"
