Chapter 133

Are you ready to die?

The next second, without hesitation, he raised his hand and punched himself in the chest.

The mechanism beneath the armor was activated, and a pale red liquid was injected into Kalpas's body—a potion that could greatly amplify physical strength, but it was also a deadly poison.

This is a function that Ai Yue designed specifically for Kalpas's unique physique.

From this moment on, Kalpas will gain power that surpasses the world, but he will also have less than five minutes of life left.

But this suited him perfectly.

Feeling the rapidly expanding power within his body, and the scorching heat that seemed to burn his flesh and blood, Kalpas Jie revealed a ferocious smile.

What others would avoid like the plague, he saw as a blessing that could unleash the body's potential.

With its double amplification, how could a mere few Herrscher clones possibly stop Kalpas Calamities?

Something's not right!

The Herrscher, who had been watching the Fused Warrior's clones with mocking expressions from afar, finally changed their demeanor at this moment.

With their incredibly keen sense of energy, how could they not detect the aura emanating from Kalpas, which was like that of a ghost or god?

It was precisely because of this keen perception that they were able to see the terror of Kalpas at this moment more directly—in the eyes of others, Kalpas might just be a strong person who could barely be compared with Kevin, but in the eyes of the Herrscher clone, he was clearly a blazing sun that covered the sky!

Before such terrifying power, Kevin and Sakura were all obscured and completely invisible!

"We must suppress him!"

The Herrscher clones were of one mind, after all, they were originally one entity, and their wills were now highly synchronized. In an instant, they pressed all their powers onto Kalpas, determined to strip him of all his power.

Feeling the immense pressure on his body, Kalpas couldn't help but frown—the suppression of the Herrscher authority was all-encompassing, and he could feel his already limited life force rapidly draining away, further compressing his already short time to move.

But that's enough.

Even with the combined power of five powers on Kalpas Jie alone, it could not play a decisive role.

Even if they could weaken the power of the Kalpas by five times, a sun shrunk by five times would still be beyond their ability to withstand.

The next second, Kalpas's figure disappeared from the spot, and at the same time, a violent explosion rang out from the air.

Immediately afterwards, the two Herrscher clones disappeared.

No one could see this scene clearly; only the Herrscher clone, after realizing something, looked behind it.

Kalpas was standing less than fifty meters away from them. He had his back to the crowd, raised his arms, and then loosened his clenched hands.

Several Herrscher Core, riddled with cracks, fell from his hand to the ground with a crisp sound like shattered ice.

"This is... way too exaggerated!"

Having witnessed all of this, Cosmo instinctively stopped in his tracks. "Does Kalpas really need our help? I feel like he could kill all of these clones by himself!"

Before anyone could respond, Cosmo saw Kalpas' body sway and fall to the ground.

Under the combined effects of the potion and the Herrscher authority, Kalpas lost his combat ability earlier than expected. Although the armor's emergency life support system saved his life, it was clear that he could not be relied upon for the upcoming battle.

Even so, it's enough.

Because Kalpas not only destroyed two Herrscher clones, but also bought precious time for the others.

While the Herrscher clone's attention was completely drawn to Kalpas, thus compressing the expanded domain onto him alone, the others were not idle either.

Kevin raised his hand and summoned a giant iceberg, which crashed down on the Herrscher. Elysia drew her bow and shot a purple crystal arrow that had never been shown to anyone before. Sakura seemed not to have made a move, but her figure quietly disappeared from the spot. It was obviously just an afterimage left behind due to her excessive speed.

The next second, the Herrscher had just breathed a sigh of relief because of Kalpas's fall, raised its head and found that another great disaster was about to befall it.

They successfully shattered the iceberg created by Kevin, but could not escape Elysia's arrows and Sakura's assassination attempt.

In the blink of an eye, only one of the five Herrscher clones remained.

Everything seemed to be going very smoothly, and even Kevin couldn't help but smile as he looked at the remaining two Herrscher clones.

Although everyone seemed to have used all their trump cards and even brought in a top-tier fighter like Kalpas, the result was still acceptable.

However, at this moment, Dr. Mei spoke up and pointed out, "Something's not right. Why hasn't the intensity of the power on site decreased?"

The strength of the power has not decreased?

Cosmo paused for a moment, then saw the Herrscher clone in the distance absorbing the Herrscher Core into its own body, and realized, "Be careful, he's absorbing the power of the other clones!"

"You got it right."

The Herrscher in the distance let out a cold laugh, then flicked its finger in the direction of Cosmo.

The tiny energy released by the snap of the fingers expanded wildly under the effect of the Herrscher authority, eventually transforming into an unstoppable storm that directly blew Cosmo away.

"Mobius!"

Desdrobia, who had secretly used telekinesis to move Kalpas to a safe location, had just raised her head when she saw this scene. She subconsciously wanted to use the same trick to pull Cosmo back, but suddenly felt a splitting headache and couldn't help but kneel down on the ground.

"Kid, if you don't want to suffer, don't make any rash moves."

The Herrscher clone stared expressionlessly at Desdrobia, and once again intensified the power of her authority.

However, this time it did not succeed.

"It seems I was right."

Su said with a pale face, "'Karma Reversal' also applies to Herrscher."

Although he couldn't completely deflect the Herrscher's attack, he could deflect it, allowing himself to bear some of the suppression of the power.

"Kevin."

Sakura appeared behind Kevin at some point. She tried to keep her tone calm, but her words betrayed her weakness. "One more time, cover me."

"No, you can't take it anymore!"

Elysia quickly grabbed Sakura's arm, and the fox-eared girl was pulled to the ground. "See, you can't be so stubborn anymore!"

"But what should we do now?"

Sakura couldn't help but ask, "Besides us, is there anyone else we can rely on?"

Her answer was a broadcast loud enough to echo throughout the entire battlefield.

Of course!

With such a triumphant voice, everyone couldn't help but look up.

A figure much larger than a drone was seen flying towards them.

"What the hell?"

The Herrscher clone frowned, then raised its hand towards the shadow, "Get down here!"

The power was activated instantly, locking onto the target firmly—but it had no effect whatsoever.

It's as if it's malfunctioning.

"How is that possible?"

The Herrscher clone couldn't help but widen its eyes, "What exactly are you!?"

This is the first time since his birth that he has encountered a situation where his powers have completely failed.

"Good question!"

As the sound drew closer, the figure finally landed on the ground.

Only then did everyone realize that it was actually a quadruped robot decorated with various gears and levers.

It looks like a large spider, but it only has four legs standing on the ground, while the other four are waving in the air, which looks very strange.

"Clang clang~"

Vill-V emerged from within, raising her hands high, proclaiming, "The most powerful magician of this century, and also the second most powerful mechanic, Vill-V, here she is!"

As she spoke, background music playing from the robot's speakers accompanied her words.

"Stop fooling around, Vill-V,"

Elysia finally breathed a sigh of relief, but was still somewhat incredulous. "You really succeeded?"

"Of course, although it took a little longer, my 'Anti-A'... no, I mean 'Anti-Eleventh Herrscher Field Generator' is finally complete!"

"Leave the rest to me!" Vill-V said confidently.

Were you just trying to say something about an anti- Ai Yue stance generator?

Elysia opened her mouth, but didn't say what was on her mind.

"What kind of nonsense is this? Do you really think it's useful?!"

The Herrscher clone calmed down from its initial panic. "I admit that my powers may not work on you, but that doesn't mean I can't do anything to you!"

His power can not only weaken others, but also strengthen himself!

Immediately afterwards, all the Honkai Energy around him began to surge toward him. The immense energy even transformed into a visible pale purple storm, and even the energy on Kevin and the others was attracted and continuously torn out of their bodies.

Because the Herrscher authority was too domineering, some Honkai Beast were even torn to pieces by this power, turning into pure energy that surged toward the Herrscher's clone.

However, amidst this chaos, Vill-V's robots remained unmoved.

"That's it, eat a little more."

Watching the Herrscher continue to expand, Vill-V's face revealed a "I knew it" expression. "If you don't eat more, how am I supposed to... detonate you all at once!"

"Warning: The target energy reading is about to reach the threshold."

Following the robot's prompt, Vill-V pressed the button on her hand.

The next second, a missile bearing the symbol of a magic hat shot out from the robot's chest cannon and flew towards the Herrscher clone.

"Don't just stand there, run!"

After launching the missile, Vill-V controlled the robot to turn and run, not forgetting to use its mechanical arm to grab a few unfortunate people who had lost their ability to move along the way.

This missile itself does not have much destructive power, but it has an extremely absurd effect.

That would be disrupting the normal functioning of the Herrscher authority.

The Herrscher clone, which amassed so much energy through its authority, will face only one fate if it loses control of that authority—

"Boom--!!!!"

The massive, highly concentrated energy went out of control in an instant, causing chaos, followed by a violent explosion that defies description.

Although Vill-V had issued a warning immediately, the blast radius was clearly not something that could be easily escaped on foot. Therefore, despite being on guard, everyone was still blown away by the blast.

Fortunately, none of them were normal people, and their physical strength allowed them to withstand the attack. In addition, Kevin created an ice wall as a buffer, and Vill-V's robot deployed a shield to block the attack. In the end, apart from being covered in dust, no substantial damage was caused.

"With an explosion like that... he shouldn't have survived, right?"

Elysia, who was the first to recover, brushed the dust off her body and looked towards the center of the explosion.

"The fluctuations of Herrscher authority can no longer be detected."

Dr. Mei's voice was noticeably more relaxed. "It seems we've escaped another disaster."

However, at that moment, Queen's voice suddenly entered everyone's ears. "Sorry, I don't think so—emergency, everyone, my logistics system has suffered a fatal blow. Since no alarms or data have been received, it can be inferred that it was done by the Herrscher."

As if to confirm Queen's words, the familiar feeling descended upon everyone again in the next second.

That was the feeling of being suppressed by the domain of the Herrscher authority.

"A new Herrscher authority response detected..."

Dr. Mei practically spat out those words through gritted teeth, "I should have realized it sooner. With the number of Control Cores Herrscher possesses, five clones are definitely not his limit..."

What should we do now?

Things had once again exceeded everyone's expectations. Even Vill-V, who had just appeared invincible, couldn't help but show a somewhat embarrassed expression. "Um, I only made one 'Anti-Eleventh Herrscher Field Generator,' and it seems it can't solve the current situation..."

"Of course we'll handle it forcefully."

Kevin, as if he had expected this, stood up and gripped his weapon tightly. "Now that things have come to this, is there any other choice?"

"No need to worry, everyone."

Just when everyone was in despair, Aponia's voice entered their minds. The nun's tone was no longer as calm as usual, but filled with a kind of boiling emotion. "Leave the rest to me."

The next second, within the network constructed by her mental power, she firmly locked onto the figures of those identified as "enemies".

Then, an overwhelming anger finally entered their consciousness along with the words—

"'Please,' you can die."
