Where Are You Looking?

Honkai was a unique kind of disaster that existed in this world.

Its manifestations were unpredictable: war, epidemics, climate disasters, comet impacts, and more.

Amid a Honkai tide, ordinary people infected by Honkai Energy would gradually be eroded by it, turning into zombies that had lost all reason and knew only slaughter.

If the ones infected by Honkai Energy were animals rather than humans, those animals would become exceptionally troublesome beings.

To distinguish these animals known as Honkai Beasts, people in this world classified them into seven types: Charge Class, Knight Class, Ballista Class, Chariot Class, Temple Class, Warlord Class, Emperor Class, and Judgment Class.

At this moment, the Honkai Beasts appearing in Senba Academy were basically all Assault-class Honkai Beasts.

Only one of them, the largest Honkai Beast, differed from the other small fry. It was a stronger Knight-class Honkai Beast.

But none of that mattered to Gu Yu.

Although he, Raiden Mei, and Kiana Kaslana could consider sneaking out from somewhere else a little more carefully—

Once these animals were infected by Honkai Energy and became Honkai Beasts, their sense of smell, sight, hearing, and even perception became countless times stronger than before.

Rather than pinning his hopes on three amateurs with no stealth training sneaking out, Gu Yu felt it would be better to strike first.

After all, stealth only worked as long as nobody saw you.

If they killed everything that had seen them, it would achieve the same effect!

After mounting Musou Dragon, Gu Yu could clearly sense from his higher vantage point that the feelings of the previously violent Honkai Beasts had visibly changed.

After being eroded by Honkai Energy, these Honkai Beasts naturally became like Meele, abandoning even their most basic reason and knowing only to kill every non-Honkai creature before them.

Yet after Musou Dragon circled into the sky, the Assault-class Honkai Beasts flying in the air did not mindlessly rush over to attack him. Instead, they all took a step back in unison.

As for the sole Knight-class Honkai Beast on the ground, upon seeing Crimson Dragon appear, he tightened his grip on his weapon and warily stared at the enemy that had suddenly appeared before him.

"Heh, I see."

Looking at the Honkai Beasts that dared not approach him, Gu Yu suddenly understood.

Although Musou Dragon was merely a virtual creature sealed within a Knight card, that did not diminish his strength as a Contract Beast.

Simply by circling in the sky, the faint pressure radiating from Musou Dragon was enough to make enemies lose their will to fight.

If these Honkai Beasts had not already had their brains eroded by Honkai Energy, leaving only the word "slaughter" in their minds, they might have already fled without fighting under the pressure emanating from Musou Dragon.

"Forget it. This stalemate won't solve anything."

After swiping a card, Gu Yu caught the Dragon Tail Saber falling from the sky and directed Musou Dragon beneath his feet into action.

"Devour them, Musou Dragon."

"Roar!"

Having received his master's hunting order, Musou Dragon, who had already harbored ill intent toward this pack of Honkai Beasts, immediately focused with one hundred and twenty percent of his attention. He burst forth at a speed of five hundred yards and charged straight into the horde.

Without giving the Assault-class Honkai Beasts any chance to resist, Musou Dragon bit down at once, swallowing a smaller Honkai Beast whole.

"Gulp."

The previously noisy field fell utterly silent after Musou Dragon made that horrifying move.

The Meele on the ground, the Assault-class Honkai Beasts in the sky, and even Raiden Mei and Kiana Kaslana watching the battle from the building all froze in shock.

Only Gu Yu and Musou Dragon, one man and one dragon, did not feel that anything was wrong.

After swallowing one Honkai Beast, Musou Dragon seemed to have developed a taste for it, and the way he looked at the other Honkai Beasts became even more unsettling.

At that moment, the instinctive terror etched into the genes of living creatures overtook the hearts of the Honkai Beasts, which had been consumed by slaughter.

After exchanging glances with one another, the Assault-class Honkai Beasts in the sky...

—shamelessly scattered and fled.

Even though they had been eroded by Honkai Energy, they still knew fear.

Faced with Musou Dragon's terrifying combat power and oppressive presence, these Honkai Beasts could not muster the slightest desire to fight.

Although the Knight-class Honkai Beast on the ground did not collapse on the spot, Musou Dragon's terrifying display still made him grow incomparably agitated.

His mobility was already inferior to those Assault-class Honkai Beasts that could fly. Those Assault-class ones could escape, but...

—what about him?

With his life under threat, the Knight-class Honkai Beast, who had been looking around wildly, suddenly spotted Raiden Mei and Kiana at a window in the building.

"Not good, Mei! He noticed us!"

"I know, Kiana."

Seeing the Knight-class Honkai Beast choose to charge toward the building where they were, Raiden Mei and Kiana immediately turned to run.

However, just as the two of them took their first steps, the Knight-class Honkai Beast, who had been in the middle of charging, suddenly let out a miserable scream.

"Hey, hey, hey, where are you looking?"

Before their eyes, Gu Yu, transformed into a crimson knight, slashed off one of the Knight-class Honkai Beast's lower limbs.

After lightly flicking the blood from the Dragon Tail Saber onto the ground, Gu Yu stood alone before the Knight-class Honkai Beast.

"Don't ignore my existence."

"Your opponent is me, brat."
