White hair, blue eyes; although her appearance differed greatly from the photos she Remembrance, she did indeed fit the characteristics of the Caslana family.

At this moment, Gwen slowly retracted his outstretched fingers, adjusting the Quasi Black Hole in mid-air—

He filled the city with the Honkai Beast and Honkai zombie that were born there, along with a massive amount of Honkai Energy.

All I can say is that the Herrscher is still the most effective weapon against Honkai.

Thinking this with a sense of elation, Gwen suddenly swung his right hand into a fist, unleashing a fiery fist. The sudden gust of hot wind sent Susanna staggering.

"Eh..."

Hearing the commotion beside him, Gwen reached out and lifted the little girl up.

"I'm... I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention."

Susanna's face turned red; she was embarrassed by her performance.

"It's my fault for not informing you in advance, but you need to train more in the future. Whether it's close combat or ranged combat, your chassis needs to be stable enough."

Gwen smiled, opened his left hand, and caught the falling, magnificent purplish-red crystal—

With so much Honkai Energy, it's natural not to waste it. It's easier to use it by directly manufacturing it into Demon Spirit Stone.

"I'm sorry, Gwen, Susanna was in a group that was responsible for holding off Ganesha, and that took a lot of energy."

Matira, having finally confirmed Gwen's identity via the terminal signal, approached the two, Gwen, and spoke a few words of praise for her teammate—

After this period of adjustment, Matira could see that Susanna had great talent and didn't want her to lose points in front of this S-class player because of this mistake, so as to affect her future promotion and work.

"Yes, thank you for your hard work."

Gwen didn't think much of it, but glanced at the blonde girl beside him, whose hair was covered in dust and who looked filthy, and quickly connected her with the delicate girl he remembered—

"Honkai have occurred in other places as well, and I need to get there to deal with them first. I'll leave this place to you..."

Although they were also from his own ship, now was clearly not the time for reminiscing. Gwen said, taking out his terminal, glancing at the message Amber had sent, confirming the coordinates, and tearing through space to rush over.

"Wow...

The captain, just like in the movies, disappeared in a flash!

Susanna exclaimed, her eyes shining.

"Yes, after all, they are the strongest fighting force of our Schicksal..."

Seeing Susanna's lively demeanor, Matira straightened her face and said—

"Alright, there are still many survivors waiting for us to search and rescue. Let's rest for a bit and wait for the Vice-Captain and I to arrange the plan before we begin the search and rescue operation."

"Yes!"

Susanna instantly perked up and raised her hand in salute...

Faced with the continuous Great Honkai, Destiny Headquarters took it very seriously and suspected that this was a harbinger of the emergence of a new Herrscher. While sending high-end combat forces to various places to provide support, headquarters also needed to leave enough combat power to deal with the situation. This is why Amber could no longer hide her intelligence infiltration of Anti-Entropy and went directly to Anti-Entropy to find Gwen, whom she could not contact.

Although they sent people to deal with the Honkai in other places, even if they traveled in the most advanced aircraft, their speed was obviously not as fast as Gwen's, and their processing speed could not compare with Gwen's.

In just half an hour, Gwen had already run through several cities, and each Quasi Black Hole Honkai the Honkai Beast, Honkai zombie, and the Honkai Energy that erupted at the same time into Demon Spirit Stone as reserves.

In the eighth city, Gwen encountered his beloved teammates—

"Hui Huo? Su Shang?"

You're all here...

Gwen first waved to the girls he hadn't seen for a while, then released Quasi Black Hole with his raised hand.

"Captain/ Gwen, you're here?"

Upon seeing Gwen, both Wuse Huohuo and Li Sushang were overjoyed, as they were well aware of Gwen's strength and abilities.

Although the Honkai Beast and Honkai zombie here have been mostly dealt with, Gwen's arrival will make the subsequent handling much simpler.

"Well, leave the rest of the enemies to me..."

Gwen spoke, he had already sent all the enemies he had detected with his psychic powers into the Quasi Black Hole, along with a massive storm of Honkai Energy to prevent a secondary disaster.

It's worth noting that the pseudo- Herrscher of Poison who defeated Theresa, who was carrying the S-rank Valkyrie Judah, in the original timeline appeared under similar circumstances.

"This is so convenient..."

Watching Gwen easily deal with those Honkai zombie hiding in some unknown corner, Li Sushang, wearing the Jade Knight: Moonscar armor, couldn't help but feel a little envious. Although her sword was sharp, she still needed to find the enemy to cut down.

"That's the advantage of having a wider range of capabilities..."

Gwen smiled, skillfully threw a punch, and gained a malnourished Demon Spirit Stone.

Just then, a pale blue meteor streaked across the distance, circled above the city once, and then flew away without finding its target, heading straight into the distance.

"It's You Lan Dai Er..."

Li Sushang sheathed her sword, placed one hand on her forehead, and looked around.

"It seems that she rushed to the next battlefield after dealing with her powerful enemies on her side."

"The continuous large-scale Honkai are highly suspicious and warrant our attention..."

Gwen nodded and said—

"And You Lan Dai Er has done this before, leaving the main force of the Blade of Unyielding to Rita, while he himself acts as the spearhead, swiftly piercing through all the enemies."

"It's fortunate that her body could hold up."

Li Sushang sighed—

"I also tried that flight system, but it was too much of a strain on me."

"People's physical constitutions cannot be generalized. Moreover, Su Shang, your strength lies in the sword in your hand. There's no need to force it. Just make sure it doesn't become a fatal weakness."

Gwen smiled, raised his hand and flicked the girl's pert nose with his finger, instantly bringing a blush to her dusty face.

"I'll go check on the others..."

With that, Li Sushang, her pretty face slightly flushed, slipped away in a flash.

She might not have cared so much at first, but after realizing her own feelings, and being treated so intimately by Gwen under the gaze of the Wuse Huohuo, Li Sushang felt that the Wuse Huohuo's gaze was even sharper than the sword in her master Cheng Lingshuang's hand back then, and she hurriedly fled.

Gwen chuckled softly, glancing at the Wuse Huohuo, which was surrounded by a multitude of floating cannons, almost like a small-scale firepower cluster.

"Well done, Hui Huo, I saw your results, great job!"

"Yes, I have to thank this new armor for greatly increasing the firepower I can carry. It is said to use the new technology from Director Changguang."

Wuse Huohuo smiled and nodded, patting its good companion beside it.

"Good technology is technology that can be put to practical use, and Hui Huo is a good soldier if you can bring out the full power of your equipment."

Gwen certainly knew what the so-called new technology was—he could sense the unique fluctuations of the Demon Spirit Stone inside, even through the outer shell of the equipment.

"Captain, aren't you going to continue to the next area?"

I remember that several more Great Honkai occurred in various places afterward.

Upon hearing Wuse Huohuo felt his heart suddenly race, and asked with a somewhat unfocused gaze.

"Ha...

"Why do you think I'm chatting so leisurely with you guys here? Hui Huo."

Gwen smiled and pinched the girl's chubby cheeks. Although the gunpowder and dust made them feel a bit rough, the softness was still wonderful.

"Don't just pinch a girl's cheek like that, Captain!"

Holding that warm, large hand, Wuse Huohuo's pretty face flushed crimson, and she quickly slapped away Gwen's mischievous hand.

"Now that you've finished dealing with the other areas, why not notify You Lan Dai Er instead of making her come all this way for nothing?"

"I only have a regular terminal on me, so I'm afraid I won't be able to contact her."

My progress is being updated with Amber at headquarters; I'll notify her soon.

Gwen smiled smugly at the girl's shy expression and called out—

"Alright, that's enough chatting. Let's begin the search and rescue operation."

"Speaking of which, how many times have I taken you on missions?"

"Count them yourself!"

The Wuse Huohuo adjusted the combat units around it with annoyance—

"Anyway, I remember Anna leading us on most missions. Now even Anna, the Vice-Captain, has disappeared because of you. Su Shang, Bronya, and I don't even have enough people for a basic squad."

"Cough...

After all, she hadn't expected that large-scale Honkai would suddenly erupt here one after another, and the events over there were also beneficial to her..."

Gwen coughed strategically to cover his embarrassment, then continued,

"Of course, I believe that before long, Hui Huo, your equipment will also receive another upgrade."

"Maybe in a few years you'll have to switch careers and fly spaceships, Hui Huo."

"Real?"

Wuse Huohuo exclaimed in delight.

Although it also likes sweets, Wuse Huohuo also likes big tubes and even bigger tubes.

Spaceships and stuff, that's super cool, right?

"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"

Gwen laughed.

Then came the girl's merciless, "(???)" stare.

"Alright, alright, let's get to work—"

Gwen averted his gaze, used his telekinesis to search for survivors, and synchronized his telekinesis with the battlefield communication frequency.

"These are all the survivors in this city..."

Gwen carefully used his telekinesis to drag the two unconscious survivors to the makeshift medical camp, and sighed softly as he listened to the cries and screams of pain coming from inside.

Is this... everything?

Upon hearing Gwen's words, Li Sushang, who had just rushed out and was about to re-enter the city to search for survivors, paused, her face grave.

Although this wasn't her first time participating in survivor search and rescue operations, Anna had always led the teams before. Without someone like Gwen, a highly efficient human radar, she, as the main combatant, needed to be prepared to face secondary Honkai at any time. So, she had mostly just lent a hand. This was the first time she had participated in a search and rescue operation almost entirely, and it was also the first time she had observed the pain the Honkai had inflicted on humanity from this perspective.

In a city with a permanent population of nearly one million, only the less than one thousand people in the hospital behind her have survived...

"Um..."

Gwen couldn't help but sigh—

"This is Honkai... Hah..."

Soon...

It's almost over..."

"Um...

I believe you can do it.

Li Sushang nodded, forced an unnatural smile, strode forward, and stood on tiptoe to pat Gwen on the shoulder—

"But don't put too much pressure on yourself—"

You are our only hope in this world.

If something happens to you, we'll have to rely on our Martial Uncle Ancestor's plans.

"Yes, I will make the Honkai understand who the Finality..."

Seeing Li Sushang tiptoeing to pat his shoulder, Gwen couldn't help but smile.

"Don't laugh!"

Knowing that her height made her look like a child next to Gwen, Li Sushang immediately puffed up her cheeks and glared angrily at Gwen.

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh."

Gwen pinched his lips with his fingers to indicate that he wasn't laughing, but the smile in his eyes was impossible to hide.
