Chapter 123
Otto gritted his teeth, "To have such a subordinate, impressive!"
He was initially delighted to see his K423 grow stronger and stronger, becoming a meteor that soared against the tide in Sky City, carrying the Honkai Energy reactor that World Serpent was preparing to detonate, and rushing into the high altitude of the stratosphere.
Although Honkai Energy explosion of the Honkai reactor is almost fatal to ordinary people.
But for the K423, it's not a big problem.
In Otto's view, the outcome was already predictable this time.
K423 proved itself.
Then Durandal took her away.
By then, I will be able to conduct the experiments related to Imaginary Space myself.
Isn't this a smiling face?
But!
Otto isn't laughing anymore.
Honkai Energy the Honkai reactor exploded, K423 was instantly turned into the Finality.
"Ha..."
What's so special about this?!
Has this utterly chaotic world finally gone mad?!
Shouldn't she just be the Herrscher of the Void?! Why is she the Finality?!
On the Hyperion's side.
The members of St. Freya, along with the two doctors from the Anti-Entropy conservative faction, remained as silent as could be.
Conservatively estimated combat power of over 100,000... oh no, Honkai Energy concentration.
Can we win?
"If I remember correctly, during the Second Great Honkai, even a six-core Herrscher of the Void the Void at its peak only had around 7500 HW, right?"
Dr. Einstein smoothed his messy hair, but became even more agitated. He scratched his head, and his meaning was already quite clear.
There's no hope, just wait to die. Goodbye.
Conservatively estimated to be ten times the power of the Herrscher of the Void, even if they were unaware of the Herrscher of the End's existence, they were well aware that this was a sure thing.
How could Theresa and the others not know that this is the incredibly cruel reality of today?
But can they give up?
Aren't they here for Kiana?
This student is really rebellious.
She awakened as the Herrscher of the Void a few months ago, and was saved only by sacrificing Himeko.
Now that it has awakened into a stronger Herrscher, what should it do now?
"Will the purified serum still be useful?" Bronya asked Tesla as she floated away.
"I... I actually hope it works! You could probably think of something like that, right? Do you expect to be able to drug an elephant with the same kind of tranquilizer as rat poison?"
Dr. Tesla, like pouring out beans, ruthlessly shattered everyone's last illusions.
"And do we have that purifying serum?"
She emitted a sharp, explosive sound.
"Or are we saying that we just declared war on Schicksal, and now we're rushing back to kowtow and admit our mistake? That would be too shameful!"
"I'd rather die than beg that Otto!"
"*!"
PS1: First update delivered, two more to come, keep it up!
125. Durandal: It's alright, I'm the strongest!
"Jackal, what the hell have you done?!" Raven was going crazy.
Only those who have truly witnessed the Divine Monarch figure soaring over the Sky City today can understand this.
She then understood what true, unspeakable terror was.
The Stigmata Project has failed.
Then, what the hell is that?
"..." On the other end of the communicator, the Jackal was also silent.
But then, in the very next moment...
She seemed quite smug, "That's right! This is what I, Jackal, am capable of! From now on, everyone show me some respect!"
"The Lord's Stigmata Project has not failed!"
Her tone grew increasingly fervent. It was fanatical, whether directed at the Lord or at the terrifying figure that had suddenly appeared in Sky City, she believed it herself!
"This is the true power of our Stigmata Project."
"The unknown monster... will be the Goddess who will never fail in our fight against the Finality, the ruler of the earth!"
"..."
Your mom!
Raven's blood pressure is really high.
Even at a time like this, you're still so confident, you bastard!
Next time we meet, I'm going to give you a good kick.
She was so angry.
Out of curiosity that K423 could save the city, I stayed a little longer.
That's good now...
Finality, what's the big deal?
Didn't you see that Young Lady Seven Thunders of Retribution was terrified?
Should I run?
They were probably targeted immediately.
The nail that sticks out gets hammered down!
But...
If we don't run, it would be too dangerous, wouldn't it?
A warning was blaring in her heart.
Half of it was fear, and half of it was anger.
The groundhog screamed, growing more and more desperate the more it thought about it!
At the same time.
Raiden Mei, who was even closer to Kiana, was also feeling terrible.
They are both Herrscher.
She could even more clearly feel the overwhelming pressure from the source of that power after the Finality arrived.
Even just glimpsing the tip of the iceberg is like seeing cordyceps in the vast Rainforest, making one tremble involuntarily.
It wasn't a particular tree in the Rainforest, or anything else, that terrified her so much.
It was as if the entire Rainforest was alive, and you were just a tiny mayfly within it...
I can't understand it! I absolutely cannot understand it!
I don't want to believe it!
Even the slightest hint of hostility felt like countless blood-soaked words of death, filled with an incredibly terrifying aura, one after another, overflowing one's vision and mind.
Even etched into the soul.
"Ooh..." A mournful cry escaped from his body.
Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.
The Thunder Queen inside her body was under even greater pressure and was in even more pain.
But seeing that Raiden Mei was already in this state, she still managed to seize control of her body, using the last bit of power she had squeezed out to transform into lightning and escape further away.
But!
Would escaping be useful?
Distance... is meaningless.
Trying to get away, seeking that ridiculous sense of security.
It's nothing more than the weak comforting themselves.
Meanwhile, on this side...
Durandal caught a glimpse of the faint, firefly-like lightning out of the corner of her eye.
But that doesn't matter anymore.
"Lord Otto."
Regardless of whether the other party was listening or not, she made a decision quickly.
"Thanks to the unknown changes that occurred in K423, the World Serpent's Stigmata Project was completely destroyed."
"At the same time..."
She took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
Try to relax a little.
"The level of Honkai Energy pollution in the entire Sky City has rapidly fallen below the lowest level in history, almost equivalent to a Honkai Energy area."
"This indicates that Herrscher possess the ability to Honkai Energy."
"..."
"As for more information... I'll try to find it out!"
"..."
Durandal knew that Kiana's Honkai Energy concentration had exceeded the limit.
Because of this, the more one looks at her, the more alarmed one becomes; the more one examines her, the more one feels that she is full of flaws, yet so powerful that she is invincible.
It's like staring into complete darkness.
It will not respond to any kind of stimulus.
It's like a black hole!
It makes people feel powerless from the bottom of their hearts.
"Durandal... please don't act rashly!" Rita's weak voice was filled with anxiety.
However, Durandal turned off her headset after giving her report.
Her blood was boiling!
She has never lacked challenges. But this time, she felt afraid.
It was precisely because she was afraid that she was even more unwilling to back down.
The fourth-generation Schicksal armor, Bright Knight: Excelsis: Bright Knight: Excelsis, entered overload mode from the very beginning, driven by her will.
The style is like that of a white female warrior, accompanied by even more dazzling blue starlight.
One second, two seconds...
Briefly build-up of energy.
Then, carrying Durandal, they charged towards Kiana high in the sky.
