While Huang Hao was playing chess, in the space, three people were discussing how to resolve the situation.

Kevin: "How much longer do we have to wait? This space is huge. Whether we can defeat him after he finishes absorbing is another question."

Angela: "You don't need to worry about that. Once I have the strength to release you, I'll suppress the shrinking of this space."

At this moment, Angela sensed something.

Angela: "Father is still conscious. Please, could you find a way to wake him up?"

Angela looked at Kevin pitifully.

Kevin: "Uh, this is inevitable. Otherwise, when he unleashes his full power, we won't be able to defeat him either."

"We can't wait much longer, we have to get out quickly." Kevin silently monitored the battlefield. (It was opened by Angela, so it's normal to set up a camera on her father, right?)

Angela: "I have a little strength now. Uncle Kevin, please hold on a little longer. Brother Cosmo, get ready."

Cosmo was sitting around absentmindedly. Seeing Angela call him, he finally reacted and said, "You didn't think of me when you were chatting, but you call me when you need me to do something. Besides, if you let me out, can I even beat him?"

Angela lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Right, I have your Moth to the Flame coordinates. I'll transmit them to you. Go get some reinforcements."

Cosmo: "Then what about the Herrscher..."

Angela cut him off and said, "Don't you forget who is currently beside the Herrscher."

Cosmo: "What do you mean?"

"My father is being controlled, but not by the Honkai."

In Huang Hao's eyes, he was quietly playing chess. Outside, his entire body was dark (he was still wearing the same black outfit as Doctor, which he hadn't taken off yet), faintly flickering with black flames, and a power that did not belong to the Honkai spread out.

The surrounding space distorted. That power, which did not belong to the Honkai, combined with the flames of the Herrscher of Flame, instantly vaporized the sea. (After such a long time, Mu Continent was already gone.)

The Rock Herrscher looked at its "compatriot" and was about to head elsewhere to slaughter when a killing intent came from behind.

The Rock Herrscher immediately turned around and saw Huang Hao's flames gradually expanding, rapidly charging towards it.

Seeing the flames charging at it, the Rock Herrscher immediately turned and ran, trying to escape the range of the flames.

However, it didn't run for long before the flames caught up. Helpless, the Rock Herrscher could only brace itself for defense and take the hit head-on.

As the Rock Herrscher braced itself for defense, the flames rushed over, engulfing the Herrscher in an instant. The raging fire burned the Herrscher and brought a powerful impact, sending the Herrscher flying.

When the flames dissipated, the Rock Herrscher was already severely injured, with sporadic flames still burning on its body.

Huang Hao slowly walked over, a sky full of killing intent and rage enveloping everything. Even the mindless Rock Herrscher showed a fearful expression and attempted to resist with gravity.

However, Huang Hao reacted not at all to the gravity; it was useless against him. Huang Hao directly grabbed the Rock Herrscher by the neck, lifted it into the air, and punched it repeatedly.

Huang Hao wasn't using his full strength as he attacked, yet the Herrscher had no chance to struggle, feeling the threat of death with each blow. It wanted to struggle and escape but couldn't move.

In the end, like the Bing Lü, it was beaten beyond recognition and died. (At least it wasn't like Shang Yang.)

This was done by Huang Hao while unconscious. So, what was Huang Hao's consciousness doing at this time?

"Your chess play is quite tricky."

Huang Hao played chess with "himself" while eating pastries, pondering the previous problem.
