The Terrifying Sight of Herrschers Gathering in One Place / Kiana, Unconscious
Finally, while Sue was still brainstorming, Kevin broke the silence.
"Long time no see, Su."
"Yes, it's been a long time."
Although he could often observe Kevin from the World Bubble in the Sea of Quantum he was observing, Sue still said this, and felt a great sense of relief.
Even if they haven't seen each other for thousands of years, a simple "long time no see" is enough to erase the traces of time.
"You..."
Su Jian Kevin's attitude seemed different from what she had expected, and she was slightly puzzled. However, she quickly realized that Kevin must have seen Elysia, and she couldn't help but feel an urge to cover her face.
Because she was so excited to see Kevin again, she forgot about Elysia's resurrection and what it meant.
"..."
While Kevin was pondering what would be appropriate to give Gwen, he was also paying attention to his friend's expression.
Although Sue's expression changed slightly, Kevin noticed it all.
Sue's amusing reaction brought a slight smile to Kevin's lips, as if the person in front of him was not a wise man revered as an enlightened being by modern civilization, but his naive friend who had skipped class with him to go to a concert.
Sue clearly saw Kevin's expression, and her previously heavy heart immediately felt relieved.
Although there's still no sign of May's resurrection, Sue is genuinely happy for her dear friend to see Kevin so alive again.
However, just as the two, who had been separated for so long, were about to have a good chat, a deafening alarm suddenly went off, attracting everyone's attention.
Not far away, Gwyn, who had just finished introducing Changguang and Seele under the Valkyrie Quicksilver and was about to take the sleeping Stargazer and the feigning-sleep Vita to the hospital, Gwen turned his head to look at Otto, who had already walked a few steps away from him—
Although Otto should be behaving himself for the time being, Gwen still instinctively wanted to ask if Otto was up to something again, given the possibility of trouble.
"I swear I didn't do anything."
Faced with Gwen's questioning gaze, Otto, under the watchful eyes of the Changguang, shamelessly raised his hands, trying to prove his innocence.
"So what exactly happened?"
Gwen, who wasn't carrying the Schicksal Terminal, said this as he reached into Changguang's pocket and took out her terminal.
However, before Gwen could even unlock it, he saw the red warning sign—
Alert! Herrscher has been born!
"!"
In an instant, the look of confusion and surprise on Gwen's face turned serious.
Beside Gwen, Changguang, who also saw the blood-red warning, immediately became serious and quickly unlocked his terminal so that Gwen could check the details.
However, when Changguang unlocked it, Gwen's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly—
Rita had already sent a message through the Chat System in her mind—
"Gwen, please return immediately! The Corona Light is suspected of encountering the birth of Herrscher during its mission, and Anna is currently in the core area of Great Honkai!"
Without even glancing at the information on the Changguang terminal, Gwen looked directly at Sue and Kevin, who were not far away and realized something might have happened—
"Su, Kevin just got back. Take good care of him."
Saying something that puzzled Sue, Gwen then stroked Seele and Valkyrie Quicksilver's soft hair—
"Seele, Valkyrie Quicksilver, I have some urgent business to attend to right now. The things I promised you might have to wait a little while."
"Yes, Brother Gwen, Seele will take good care of Sister Vita and wait for you to come back."
The piercing alarm continued to sound, and Seele, knowing Gwen was up to something important, nodded vigorously.
"I'll be here waiting for you to come back."
Valkyrie Quicksilver had just felt a little awkward because of Otto's approach, also abandoned her almost instinctive fear of Otto's face and stared intently at Gwen with her crimson eyes.
"Well, Valkyrie Quicksilver this time, you and Seele can learn about the fun attractions in this world and make a travel plan. Then we'll follow your route."
After comforting the two girls, Gwen then spoke to Changguang—
"While I'm away, please take care of Seele and Valkyrie Quicksilver."

Chapter 400: The terrifying sight of Herrscher clustered together.
"No problem, but you seem to know a lot?"
Changguang first nodded in agreement, then looked down at the terminal in his hand, wanting to know what had happened—
She hadn't even looked at what had happened so that Gwen could see it first.
Now that Gwen seems to know the truth, Changguang no longer hands over the terminal to Gwen.
"Yes, through special channels."
Gwen casually offered an explanation, then glanced at Otto to the side—
"Bishop Otto, please return to the command center as soon as possible. The upcoming Great Honkai may require your personal command."
"Good."
Having already seen the situation at the front lines through the Soul Steel's built-in communication system, and knowing that the Corona Light Squad, which had taken its interns out for an internship, had run into trouble, Otto nodded, but still gave them a worried reminder—
"Don't act impulsively, be careful in everything you do."
"I will."
Before he finished speaking, Gwen vanished from the testing ground in a flash.
In the blink of an eye, Gwen rushed to where he kept the Heavenly Fire Judgment and took it away. Before he could even cancel his teleportation to Seele's area, he initiated a teleportation to Rita's side.
The next moment, Gwen's figure had already disappeared silently from the Destiny Headquarters, leaving only the storage room melted by the terrible heat.
What's the specific situation now?
A figure appeared beside Rita. Gwen asked a question while gently waving the Greatsword of Heavenly Fire in his hand. He released a stream of heat from the Heavenly Fire Judgment, which he had already controlled the temperature of, to dispel the terrible cold air coming towards him. At the same time, he surveyed the surrounding environment.
The two were now in a cave, but the surrounding rocks were covered with a thick layer of frost due to the sudden and terrifying low temperature, turning the place into a snowy wonderland.
Seeing this, Gwen's heart grew even heavier—
Gwen was startled when he received Rita's message.
After all, Gwen knew that in the original future, Anna was the original form of the Herrscher of Ice.
Now that Anna is carrying out a mission that has resulted in Great Honkai, and the environment is also in a terrifyingly low temperature, Gwen can't help but think in this direction.
As Gwen's Heavenly Fire Judgment released some heat, the effects of the extreme cold in the environment lessened, allowing the temperature in the area to return to normal. However, the solid ice still hadn't melted.
However, as the temperature returned to normal, Bronya and Wuse Huohuo, who had been pale and shivering, looked much better.
"Since you are not here, I will lead the Corona Light Squad on this mission to explore the ancient ruins of Jiuyou, located in the Divine Land China Sea."
The mission went smoothly, and we successfully recovered two pieces of Soul Steel, but Anna seems to have encountered an unexpected special enemy.
"We were on our way to provide support when Cold Wave hit, and at the same time, the Honkai Energy concentration detector sounded an alarm, indicating the birth of Herrscher."
Upon seeing Gwen's arrival, Rita's tense face relaxed slightly, but she still explained the current situation to Gwen with a serious expression.
"Communication with them has been cut off, they're probably very close to the Herrscher..."
After operating the virtual interface that popped up on his armor for a while, Wuse Huohuo added in a deep voice.
"Sister Su Shang, Sister Mei, and Kiana are all in the same team as Sister Anna, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
Bronya, while trying to restore communication, said that she didn't want Gwen to worry too much.
As for Seele... Bronya knew what she had to do now and could only put aside her concern for Seele for the time being.
However, upon hearing Bronya's words, Gwen sank even further—
One Herrscherization Anna was enough to give him trouble, but then Kiana and Mei, the two Herrscher forms, were also there.
If something happens to either of them, even if Li Sushang shows no mercy, there's probably nothing she can do.
Upon realizing this, Gwen suddenly discovered a blind spot—
"Where are Fu Hua and Wendy?"
"Wendy did not participate in this operation because she was unable to move."
Wuse Huohuo returns instantly.
"As for Miss Fu Hua..."
Rita's tone became slightly hesitant when she spoke of Fu Hua, the mysterious A-rank Valkyrie who seemed to get along well with the Forerunner.
"She seemed to have gotten lost before. Now that internal communications within the Nine Netherworld have been cut off, we don't know where she is for the time being."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Gwen could only pray in his heart that the others wouldn't all Herrscherization together... even if it was a battle of attrition, he would still have a chance to defeat them one by one.
However, on the surface, Gwen did not hesitate, but decisively gave the order—
"Rita, you lead Hui Huo and Bronya to retreat first. The terrain here is complicated and not suitable for them to exert their combat power. Moreover, they are easily attacked by Honkai Beast that suddenly appear."
"Leave them behind these ruins, and use their firepower to seal off the surrounding area, trying to prevent the Honkai Beast that emerge during the Great Honkai from scattering and causing harm in all directions."
"...yes."
Although she wanted to say something, Rita, who was used to fighting alongside Durandal, chose to carry out orders.
"Please be very careful, Gwen. The Herrscher are far more formidable than any enemy we have ever faced in the past."
"I will bring Anna and the others back."
Gwen nodded, but as Rita turned away, something occurred to him. He flicked his fingers into a claw, conjuring three beads that seemed to flicker with flame, and tossed them into the hands of the three.
"Taking this will help protect you from the effects of the low temperature to some extent."
Rita, you can selectively release high temperatures forward with that device. Don't hesitate if the way out is blocked by ice.
Although the Valkyrie armor has a certain degree of cold resistance, the armor worn by everyone has not been specially treated, so they still have to face the terrifying low temperatures that may be released by the Herrscher of Ice, and they will still be troubled by the environment.
"Thank you, Lord Gwen. Rita will certainly live up to your expectations."
The warmth emanating from the beads in her hand dispelled the chill from Rita's body and calmed Rita somewhat uneasy heart.
"I/ Bronya will control the Honkai Beast that are born around us and prevent them from breaking out."
Before leaving, having received equipment support from Gwen, Wuse Huohuo and Bronya solemnly assured him.
Knowing their own limitations, the girls did not insist on going with Gwen, but obediently accepted the order.
After seeing Rita and the other two off, Gwen, who had already identified the area with the highest concentration of Honkai Energy, did not hesitate at all. He swung the Heavenly Fire Judgment in his hand, and under the destructive high temperature, the cave formed by the body of the former Judgment-class Honkai Beast Chiyou was powerless to resist and was directly melted away.
Before Rita and her two companions could escape the Netherworld, Gwen had already carved a path through it and spotted Kiana and the others...

Chapter 401 Kiana in a Coma
However, the Kiana that Gwen saw was inside a block of solid ice, together with Raiden Mei—
Kiana, her face full of anxiety, stretched out one hand, her braids hanging loose and fluttering in the wind.
However, no matter how excited or hard Kiana was, she had no power to resist the sudden cold wave and was frozen in the ice.
Beside Kiana, Raiden Mei held up her katana, but the thin blade was no match for the oncoming Cold Wave, freezing her and Kiana inside.
Compared to the two, Li Sushang, who was traveling with them, was also covered in frost, but she was still able to move around.
As Gwen forced his way through, Li Sushang was using her Xuanyuan Sword to slash at the solid ice beneath Kiana and Mei's feet, trying to drag the two frozen figures away first.
Hearing a loud noise coming from one of the walls, Li Sushang thought it was another demon and was about to draw her sword to fight when she met Gwen's eyes and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise—
"Gwen?!"
However, Li Sushang immediately frowned again, and raised the Xuanyuan Sword, which she had just lowered slightly, once more—
"No, the Rakshasa said that Gwen has already left this world to carry out missions in other worlds. You are not him!"
Because she had encountered Ji Lin here before, Li Sushang was initially overjoyed to see Gwen in her time of crisis, but then became wary.
