Chapter 420 The Burning Flames Forever.

How much is Herrscher of the Thousand people hated?

The audience already knew perfectly well, so they cheered wildly for Kiana, hoping she could truly tear apart the Herrscher.

Kiana transformed back into White Comet, holding the broken Godkiller Sword, and cautiously surveyed the dark surroundings before slowly walking into the center of the theater.

Kiana's heavy breathing and the crisp sound of her high-heeled boots hitting the ground, combined with the surrounding darkness, stirred up the audience's tension, making them worry about Kiana.

In Setsuna, the blinding lights suddenly turned on, causing Kiana, who was used to the darkness, to subconsciously raise her hand, look up at the sky, and her pupils contracted.

"Kiana, give up struggling."

The voice of the Herrscher of the Thousand came again, like the whisper of a demon.

The camera shifts to Kiana's perspective, where Fu Hua and Bronya, covered in wounds, are tightly bound by countless threads in two strange poses amidst the massive claws of the mob.

This scene looked familiar to the audience, who were immediately reminded of the figure in the promotional video who was being pulled by silk threads and bleeding profusely.

"Bronya ... Class Monitor..."

Kiana was so angry that she was even shown clenching her teeth in a close-up.

The next moment, countless puppets fell from the sky like dumplings being dropped into a pot, controlled by the threads on the claws of the mob, forming an encirclement around Kiana.

"Without the power of Herrscher, you are nothing more than an ordinary—weakling."

The cold voice of the Herrscher of the Thousand was more infuriating than mockery. With a clench of his claws, the threads binding Bronya and Fu Hua tightened, pulling their bodies in the opposite direction and causing them to groan in pain.

"Let them go!"

Kiana's eyes blazed with fury, and with a powerful swing of her Godkiller Sword, she broke through the encirclement of puppets and charged toward the rabble.

"Having faith is not enough; you are powerless to change it."

The Herrscher of the Thousand coldly mocked, their claws spinning as threads twisted Bronya's arm in a horrific manner. With a crisp "crack," the intense pain caused her to cry out, whether from tears or sweat, it was unclear.

"Stop!!!"

Kiana, witnessing this, was enraged, veins bulging on her forehead, and roared at the rabble.

Kiana wasn't the only one furious. Anyone would be enraged to see the Herrscher of the Thousand so abusing Fu Hua and Bronya. Even Elysia, who is usually very good-natured, felt a surge of anger.

"Damn it... how could they treat Bronya and Hua like this?"

Elysia puffed up her cheeks in anger.

Bronya and Fu Hua are quite popular and loved by many viewers. When they see their favorite characters being abused by dolls they hate, the comments section is filled with C-language messages, although most of them are censored.

"Why is it White Comet again?!"

Sakura frowned, her expression strange, as she watched the screen revert to White Comet.

"White Comet White Comet, pure White Comet."

"That's not entirely true. It's possible that the power was taken away by the Dominator Lawyer the moment Kiana used her Herrscher Authority."

"Vill-V guessed."

"Oh no, these puppets are trying to use Bronya and Fu Hua to make Kiana impatient and make mistakes in battle. It's disgusting!"

Pardo was furious.

"A rat is a rat, hiding in disgusting sewers and using the most disgusting methods, humph."

Kalpas had no liking for the hostage-taking tactic, and his eyes behind his sunglasses were filled with anger and disgust.

"It's that familiar rhythm again."

Mei smiled.

The trope of starting with Honkai and then rising to the top, a formula used many times in the "Honkai Impact" series, involves the character being brutally beaten before unleashing tremendous power and unwavering will. Coupled with eye-catching and immersive special effects, this is sure to captivate the audience.

Meanwhile, Bronya looked at herself being tortured and fell silent.

"Bronya, don't worry, I will definitely save you."

Kiana took it very seriously.

Hearing this, Bronya was even more devastated.

She seemed to be under some kind of curse.

The only highlight was when he first became Herrscher, using a motorcycle to kill Honkai Beasts.

Fu Hua shares the same mindset as Bronya.

"..."

Fu Hua really wants to see herself return to her peak form.

After all, anyone would feel frustrated to see themselves get the short end of the stick.

"Damn the Herrscher of Domination, how can you treat an old relic like this!"

Little Knowledge was so angry he ground his teeth.

"Sigh, if Kevin could see this, his comrade is being bullied like this by a puppet. I bet one Heavenly Fire Out of the Body move could split the Theater of Domination in two."

Cang Xuan highly recognized Kevin's strength.

Or rather, every viewer who watched the Honkai was very impressed with Kevin's acting skills.

That sense of oppression made it seem as if everything was just a bargaining chip in front of him, and he could solve everything with just a slight move.

"Are you kidding me! Kevin? As long as the great Lady of Knowledge appears, any Herrscher of Domination can be wiped out with a snap of her fingers!"

Little Knowledge was furious. In her opinion, as long as she was released, even if the puppet took away her powers, she would be able to deal with the Herrscher of Domination with her combat strength.

Cang Xuan shook his head and said nothing more.

Clearly, she didn't think highly of the Herrscher of Sentience.

The manipulated puppets swarmed forward, forcing Kiana to maneuver around them. She forced her fingers into the puppets' mouths and slammed them to the ground. Although she had the advantage in numbers, the puppets were still incredibly weak.

Kiana, wielding the Godkiller Sword, cuts down one puppet at a time, seemingly fighting back, but in reality, she has secretly used her Herrscher Authority to create Spear of the Void above the mob, preparing to launch a sneak attack to rescue Fu Hua and Bronya.

"You cannot change the malice in people's hearts, nor can you change this ugly world."

Amidst the mocking laughter of the Herrscher of the Thousand, the puppet behind Kiana seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. A flash of intense fire swept past, and Kiana, in excruciating pain, collapsed to the ground.

Kiana, enduring the pain, was about to get up when the puppet grabbed her throat from behind. Then, countless puppets grabbed Kiana's limbs from all sides, launching a sneak attack. The puppets also used cannons to strike Kiana's abdomen.

There were so many dolls that they piled up on Kiana like a small mountain.

Kiana's azure eyes flashed with a dazzling light, and several Spear of the Void materialized and fell heavily.

Unfortunately, the Herrscher of Domination was prepared, and several threads entangled the Spear of the Void, preventing it from advancing even an inch.

"See? You can't even protect... they."

The voice of the Herrscher of Domination seemed to be straining. As the threads tightened, the Spear of the Void could not withstand the pressure and collapsed instantly. Fu Hua and Bronya's bodies were also twisted to a degree that humans could not do.

Bright red blood splattered from the sky, like a shower of flowers, and was reflected in Kiana's pupils.

"Ah!!!"

Kiana seemed to be engorged with blood, roaring as she tried to get up, but more and more dolls pressed down on her back, gradually engulfing her. In the boundless darkness, all she could hear was the voice of the Herrscher of the Thousand.

"This is... the end of humanity."

At this moment, the hatred and anger that the Herrscher of Domination evoked in the audience surpassed that of Otto.

In the eyes of the audience, he was destined to die.

As Elysia gazed at the crimson blood splattering everywhere, her pupils contracted.

This development made her have no doubt that the writers intended to make a fatal mistake here, causing Fu Hua and Bronya to disappear from the story.

But grief could not suppress anger.

The Fairy Lady never expressed disgust towards anyone, not even Otto, but the Herrscher of Domination did, and as a condensation of human malice, it was indeed a success.

"We really can't stand it anymore! How can there be such a disgusting character?!"

Pardo was furious; she was truly furious.

Sakura's face also darkened.

Whatever you do, don't let her know who the screenwriter is.

Ling swallowed hard.

"Hahahaha! Herrscher of Domination, you deserve to die! Now is the time to burn you to ashes! Hahahaha!!!"

Kalpas's rage was not concealed in the slightest.

The person in front of me was so frightened that they almost turned around and ran away.

"Kalpas, please... calm down."

Aponia grabbed Kalpas's arm.

Unable to shake off the furious Kalpas, he gradually calmed down.

Hen was completely stunned when he saw this.

Aponia could not only stop the Kalpas with words, but she could also stop them with actions.

"I'm so angry!!!"

Little Knowledge's fists cracked.

Cang Xuan and Danzhu quickly grabbed him; the computer monitor had cost a lot of money, and they couldn't let her punch it through again.

"I'm so angry! Why don't these puppets just die?! Why don't they just die?!"

Little Knowledge was furious, looking like a cat with its fur standing on end.

"Little Knowledge, calm down, this is all fake."

Fu Hua's mother gently stroked the cat's fur.

"Now we can only pin our hopes on Kiana. I believe in her, and I'm sure she can do it."

Fu Hua believes in Kiana.

I believe she will definitely save me and Bronya, and she will definitely be able to defeat the Herrscher of Domination.

Little Knowledge was panting.

"Kiana, don't let me underestimate you."

Little Knowledge gritted his teeth.

"Tear all these dolls to shreds!"

The Little Knowledge makes a big fuss.

In the boundless darkness, Kiana, covered in wounds, was entangled in threads like a marionette. A pair of large hands gradually closed, as if to pull Kiana into the bottomless darkness, where she would be devoured by the malice of a thousand people.

"We are all losers... humanity is all a loser..."

The voices of a thousand people murmured, like a spell, or like a lament.

Kiana's arm extended from between the fingers of the large hand, clenched into a fist, signifying her inner resentment. Her eyes were filled with resentment as she tried to stand up, but was pressed down to her knees by those large hands.

"I will not... yield to you..."

"They've already fallen; you're the last one."

The large hand slowly clenched.

Kiana's eyes lost their sparkle in her final moments.

"I... don't want to..."

"No way..."

At that moment, everyone's heart was in their throat.

Because we've reached a dead end.
