Rescuing

Although the Dominion Herrscher arrived earlier than expected, there were no man-made collapses because of Cosmo. Preparations were still ongoing, and most warriors were ready due to previous experiences (Huang Hao's prophecy).

At this time, Moth to the Flame also had Herrscher individuals among its high-ranking members. However, since most people were on high alert, it didn't result in excessive casualties.

Therefore, the higher-ups recalled important personnel at the fastest speed to prepare for battle.

It was a pity for everyone who had just finished the last Honkai, only for it to return within a few months.

However, there was one exception: Kevin. Kevin was at headquarters. Coincidentally, Angela's dorm was only one building away from where he was staying, and Angela was currently undergoing a special "man-made collapse." (Mobius compared the data sent by Huang Hao and determined it wasn't a man-made collapse, but it couldn't be called a Herrscher transformation either.) Thus, the person who had to resolve this situation was Kevin, first and foremost.

Just as Angela was causing widespread destruction, Kevin rushed over, attempting to restrain her.

Although Angela's strength was slightly inferior, she still possessed all of Huang Hao's previous authority. She could fight Kevin to a standstill. (It's reasonable that Kevin, who couldn't even defeat a weakened Terrain Herrscher, would be unable to defeat the current Angela.)

Kevin knew that this Honkai wasn't just one Herrscher, but a group of weakened Herrschers whose strength still couldn't be underestimated. He couldn't afford to be locked in a stalemate with Angela, but he was currently being beaten and couldn't break free.

At this moment, Kevin suddenly remembered Huang Hao: she was Huang Hao's child and had also experienced these things. He could ask him for help.

However, Kevin didn't have Huang Hao's contact information. But he remembered that Mobius had given Huang Hao a position through his machines before, so perhaps he could relay the message through him.

Thus, after Skyfire forced Angela back, Kevin immediately contacted Mobius, asking him to summon Huang Hao.

Upon seeing the message, Mobius immediately went to contact Huang Hao.

Switching to Huang Hao's perspective.

"Ah, this is so difficult." Huang Hao was trying to create a game, a game that had once made him sigh.

As he was diligently coding, a message suddenly appeared on his phone.

"I'm here. How did they get the message out? Can Honkai Energy explain everything?" Huang Hao picked up his phone in confusion. "Mobius sent it? It's true, only he has my contact information."

Then Huang Hao continued reading, his eyes widening: "What! How dare this Honkai!" Huang Hao saw the news of Angela being corrupted and immediately initiated a teleportation without a second word.

Arriving at the designated Moth to the Flame location, before Huang Hao could even ask, he was immediately engulfed in smoke and dust.

Huang Hao waved his hand, and the dust immediately dispersed. The first thing he saw was Angela and Kevin fighting.

Huang Hao immediately rushed over and used the Herrscher of Rock's power to apply gravity to Kevin, blocking many attacks.

Kevin: "You're finally here. You were right again."

Huang Hao: "No need for pleasantries. Mobius just sent me a message. Please don't treat her as a Herrscher."

Kevin: "If we had treated her as a Herrscher from the start, she would have already been dealt with by me. But with our past experience, we are still willing to try."

Huang Hao lowered his head and was silent for a moment, giving Kevin a response: "Thank you, I understand. Leave her to me."

Kevin: "Are you sure you want to face her alone?"

Huang Hao replied in an extremely calm tone: "Do you know, last time it was because of some inner demons that I was corrupted. Angela having issues is clearly related to me. This is something I must resolve."

Kevin nodded in agreement and then left: "I wish you success. If you fail, don't push yourself."

Huang Hao: "Don't worry."

Then Huang Hao slowly approached Angela, who was being suppressed by gravity. As Huang Hao got closer to Angela, he became a bit flustered.

"Right, didn't An'er enter my mental space before? I should be able to try that too."

Huang Hao looked at Angela, who was forced to kneel on one knee under the pressure of gravity, and felt immense bitterness.

"An'er, don't be afraid. I'll get you out soon." After speaking, Huang Hao also squatted down, brought his forehead close to Angela, closed his eyes, and attempted to enter Angela's mental world.

When Huang Hao opened his eyes again, it was that same dark space. Angela, like himself at the time, was surrounded by darkness.

"An'er..."

"Get lost!" As soon as Huang Hao spoke, Angela shoved him back.

Huang Hao looked at Angela with sadness, unsure of what to do, yet unwilling to let her be.

While contemplating what to do, Angela's attack interrupted his thoughts. Helplessly, Huang Hao tried to reason with her, hoping to awaken her, while simultaneously thinking of new strategies.

As the father and daughter confronted each other, the Honkai Will chimed in: "Look at you, how pathetic."

Huang Hao responded angrily: "Give An'er back!"

Honkai Will: "Heh, your An'er participated willingly~"

"What do you want! Stop being disgusting!" The moment Huang Hao heard the Honkai Will's sickening tone, he became furious and unable to fight.

"Don't you know yourself? Don't forget, she has all your memories."

"What do you mean?"

"She knows she's a substitute from another world, a tool for you."

"No... that's not true!"

"Oh? Just because you say so?" The Honkai Will showed no mercy, stating directly, "She remembers, she always remembers."

Huang Hao dodged Angela's attacks while remaining silent, wanting to refute but unable to say anything.

The Honkai Will then delivered the fatal blow: "It was your selfishness that harmed her."

"Shut up!" Huang Hao couldn't take it anymore and immediately retorted.

"Think about yourself. You want to protect everyone, but you can't even protect your own family, and you even harmed them." The Honkai Will continued to fan the flames. "Come, join us. At least then we can be together, right?"

The Honkai Will waited for space to corrode Huang Hao, but Huang Hao showed no reaction.

The Honkai Will asked in confusion, "What's going on?"

Huang Hao replied coldly, "After what happened before, I've understood a lot. You won't succeed this time."

"Hmph! You won't be able to celebrate for long. Watch your own loved ones go!" The Honkai Will said this as if it were true, then disappeared after uttering a harsh threat.

Huang Hao looked at Angela, who had fallen into madness, and sighed, "So, you've also endured so much."

Then, Huang Hao stopped and endured Angela's attack.

"I don't have the extreme adoration others have for you, nor the willingness to sacrifice my life for you, nor the obsession," Huang Hao spoke to himself, getting covered in wounds from Angela's attacks, but still walking towards her.

"For you, I haven't made many things, imagined many things, or stood up for you as much as others have." Angela watched Huang Hao slowly approach, fear beginning to grip her as she attacked with almost full force.

"I am also an unqualified father, without any psychological preparation. Everything was based on sheer passion, but I was caught in this karma." Huang Hao, covered in blood, walked up to Angela. Angela was clearly startled and sat down on the ground in fear.

Just as Huang Hao stood before Angela, he suddenly asked, "What am I, after all?"

Huang Hao heard this and visibly froze for a moment, but immediately responded with a smile, "I'm lacking in some ways compared to others, but for you, I will definitely persevere. I admit and apologize for my foolish imaginations before, but..."

Huang Hao hugged Angela and slowly said, "When you appeared and called me 'Father' for the first time, you were already different. You are you. You are not a machine, not a replacement."

"An'er, will you be my child?"

Amidst these heartfelt words, Angela returned to her previous state. Looking at the heavily wounded Huang Hao, she cried and said, "Father, I always have been. I always have been. I'm sorry..."

After suffering such grave injuries, Huang Hao could barely speak another word. However, upon hearing Angela's words, he smiled slightly and, with his last ounce of strength, said his final sentence: "Thank you, An'er..." before collapsing.

Crying, Angela used her psychic attack to injure herself severely, then carried the heavily wounded Huang Hao on her back and brought him out of the space, returning to the blank.

Angela brought Huang Hao out and placed him in the blank. After a simple mental treatment, she emerged.

Because this Honkai had not yet ended, and to atone for her mistakes, Angela decided to help resolve this Honkai. Thus, she returned to the Moth to the Flame
