Become a Herrscher, Mei

System: "You flatter me, Master."

Ling Yuan: "You're panting now?"

The boring conversation with the system ended.

Ling Yuan looked at Kiana, whose ahoge (cowlick) had fallen to the side, reached out and ruffled her hair. "Why do you seem a little down?"

Kiana sighed, looking utterly hopeless, and said, "Sigh, don't even mention it. I didn't find a father, but I found myself an ancestor instead."

Unfortunately, this ancestor wasn't as easy to talk to as his father.

Putting everything else aside, that face of his, so cold it could freeze someone to death, is enough to terrify anyone.

Ling Yuan, however, didn't take it to heart and even joked, "Why don't you put yourself in their shoes? You might just become the future successor of the World Serpent."

Kiana: "???"

She was taken aback and looked at Ling Yuan in surprise.

The latter chuckled softly:

"Knowing Kevin isn't a bad thing either. After this incident, he understands that even Herrscher will stand on the side of humanity, and he must have made new arrangements for you."

"You now have the resources of two giants, Anti-Entropy and World Serpent, and you also act as a bridge for communication."

"Go and learn more knowledge, learn to use your powers better, so that you can better protect Raiden Mei in the future."

"Okay, I understand." Kiana nodded, her expression gradually hardening.

Abyssal City

At the entrance to the Quantum Sea, the Abyss of the Sea suddenly burst forth with endless light.

Theresa, Raiden Mei, and the others guarding the cave entrance all turned their attention to the cave.

The Abyss of the Sea activates automatically.

"Roar!"

With a dragon's roar, a giant white dragon flew out of the Abyss of the Sea, leaving Raiden Mei and the others in a daze.

Soaring towards the sky.

"Belleronus?!"

Theresa instinctively called out the white dragon's name, her pupils shrinking to their maximum size.

Raiden Mei realized what was happening and hurriedly said, "Could it be Kiana?!"

At that moment, Belleronus slowly flew down from the sky, and under the watchful eyes of the group, Kiana and the others jumped off Belleronus's back.

Kiana?!

The moment she landed, Kiana heard a familiar voice.

Turning around, she was equally stunned and instinctively exclaimed, "Raiden Mei?!"

"Hmm!"

Kiana gasped in surprise, a flash of lightning streaked across her face, and she found herself in a warm embrace.

Raiden Mei held Kiana tightly, her voice trembling with sobs, "This time... you won't leave again, will you, Kiana..."

Kiana's slightly constricted pupils relaxed, and she gently hugged Raiden Mei's back, whispering, "Don't worry, I won't make you worry this time."

At the same time

A silver-haired man slowly emerged from the Abyss of the Sea.

He glanced at everyone.

His pupils paused when his gaze swept over Raiden Mei.

"MEI..."

She subconsciously called out the name of the person she had been longing for day and night.

But he quickly came to his senses.

He shook his head; the other person wasn't MEI. MEI was no longer there.

"What? Want to start a relationship?"

A hand landed on his shoulder; it was Ling Yuan.

Kevin gently shook off Ling Yuan's hand.

He said expressionlessly, "My affairs are none of your business."

As she finished speaking, a memory surfaced in Kiana's eyes as she looked at her embracing Raiden Mei.

He used to hold Mei like this back in the Senba Academy, but after becoming Fusion Warrior...

He will never be able to hug anyone again.

"Actually, it's not impossible for you to see MEI again. Would you like to give it a try?"

Ling Yuan made a slash in the air.

A panel appeared in front of Kevin.

[Group Owner Ling Yuan invites you to join the Super Dimensional Group Chat. Do you agree?]

Kevin was stunned and looked at Ling Yuan: "Who exactly are you?!"

"As I've said before, I am a traveler, a traveler who traverses many worlds." Ling Yuan smiled slightly.

"I don't believe you."

"It's okay if you don't believe me. I'll tell you something: Kiana met her mother not long ago, a woman who died in 2000."

A flicker of emotion crossed Kevin's eyes. "Is it another World Bubble?"

"Guess," Ling Yuan chuckled.

Before Kevin could answer, Ling Yuan continued:

"No need to reply to me so quickly, after all, I can't let you see MEI right away."

"Think about it carefully. I actually admire you quite a bit. Maybe we can go out for noodles together sometime in the future."

With that, Ling Yuan patted Kevin on the shoulder and walked towards Kiana and the others.

Watching Ling Yuan's retreating figure, Kevin then turned his gaze to the information box in front of him.

With a simple swipe, the message box disappears.

He raised his head, and a calm voice rang out. "Kiana, once you've made up your mind, come find me in the Sahara Desert."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand into the void.

Enveloped in crystals, Kevin vanished the moment the crystals dissipated.

Chapter 127 Become Herrscher, Raiden Mei

"The Sahara Desert... is that the headquarters of the snakes?" Welt pondered after hearing Kevin's words before leaving.

"Leader, are you alright?" Einstein walked over.

Welt shook his head. "Sorry to have worried you, I'm fine now."

"However, snakes..."

Einstein was taken aback. "A snake? By the way, how is the snake? Did you bring back the Gem of Desire?"

Welt closed his eyes. "I'll tell you about this later when we get back."

"Yang".

Ling Yuan, who was walking over, waved to Welt.

"Who is he?" A question appeared in Einstein's pupils.

How come you brought so much enthusiasm after just one trip out of the Quantum Sea?

"He is Ling Yuan, the savior of Himeko and Kiana, and also someone I can't understand."

Welt said something and went to meet him.

"Ling Yuan, although a lot happened this time, I still want to thank you."

"It's nothing. If you really want to thank me, how about you do me a favor?"

"You say."

"Since you were able to construct the Star of Eden, you must have a very thorough understanding of its structure."

"Yes." Welt.

"Could you please have me build a simulated rock core for you?"

Welt: "???"

After a moment of silence, he said, "Okay."

After saying that, Welt extended his hand.

Unlike the Valkyrie, the energy color of Welt's creation was red.

The next moment

A deep red core appeared in his hand.

"Give."

Without hesitation, Welt handed the core to Ling Yuan.

A Pseudo-Core cannot cause much of a stir.

Thanks.

Ling Yuan thanked him and took out his Cinder Flame Greatsword from the void.

There are already two cores on it.

Under Welt's astonished gaze, Ling Yuan embedded the Pseudo-Core he had obtained from Welt into the greatsword.

"Bang!"

As crimson energy spread throughout the greatsword, the Blazing Key gained a new power.

When swinging a sword or pulling a trigger, it can create a small Quasi-Black Hole.

Simply put, it's a skill that can not only gather monsters together but also kill them.

Looking at the Cinder Flame Greatsword in his hand, Ling Yuan revealed a satisfied expression.

After sheathing the greatsword, Ling Yuan looked at Welt and said, "To thank you for helping me, I'll give you an opportunity."

"Opportunity?"

However, the next moment, Ling Yuan's words made Welt's pupils shrink.

"Yes, an opportunity to reliably defeat the Honkai."

"Um, Mr. Ling Yuan, a sure victory against the Honkai? Even Schicksal can't guarantee that. Doesn't your statement lack supporting evidence?" Einstein reached out and interrupted.

Ling Yuan chuckled lightly, "It's not about me, or you, but about whether this opportunity is worthwhile for Welt."

As he spoke, Ling Yuan made a gesture in the air.

An invitation to the Super Dimensional Group Chat also appeared in Welt's eyes.

Welt, curious about what Ling Yuan was up to, pressed "Yes".

The next second

His consciousness was pulled into a pitch-black space.

Akame: "Joachim, welcome to the newcomer."

Asuna: "Newcomers can click on the group avatar if they have any questions."

Maple: "Asuna, sister, you stole my line."
