Ragna / Seemingly Wrong

How could there be Honkai zombie here?

No...

She instinctively stepped in front of the person behind her, roaring, "No!"

Do you still want to take away her friends?

Do they still want to take away the people they cherish?

Do these monsters still want to take lives and create death?

"I won't let you do that. By the way, I have power..." "She" laughed, her voice filled with murderous intent, "I have power now! I'll use that power to kill you! I'll let you experience what death is!"

"You people..."

"Monster!"

A massive Black Mist surged forth from her body, instantly enveloping the Honkai zombie. In less than half a second, the Honkai zombie screamed and vanished into the Black Mist.

There wasn't a single grain left.

She laughed loudly, feeling that she had finally succeeded.

That's great. Now she has to do more.

For Lin's sake, so that he will no longer have to fight, I must do even more!

Her eyes searched for the figures of other monsters. Since there was one Honkai zombie, it meant that there were more Honkai creations!

Honkai Beast, Honkai zombie, or even Herrscher... none of these are reliable evidence!

She has taken control of life and death!

Using life for humanity!

Use death to defeat the monster!

This is justice! This is the justice that Lin has always taught her!

So she looked outside, beyond the path, and heard footsteps.

With a smile, she led her friends, comrades, and important people to the battlefield.

The battle wasn't over yet, but it would soon...

A man lay on the ground, his face still showing the fear he felt before he died.

Without even glancing at the human corpse, she walked towards the area with more people.

Chapter Seventy-Six Ragna

Instead of the expected piercing alarm, Lin made a leisurely stroll along the road to the amusement park. After hanging up the communication Spasi was already directing combat personnel to the amusement park, and they would probably arrive before him.

The city alarms sounded in batches and by region. The situation with the Herrscher was special this time. Spasi wanted to complete the evacuation without alerting the Herrscher in advance. Currently, one-third of the residents have been evacuated.

Furthermore, given that the intelligence provided by Spasi regarding the suppression of the rebels mentioned the deployment of Autonomous Titan, support from headquarters will likely arrive soon.

Five major Honkai resulted in fewer than ten million civilian casualties, most of whom were caused by the Third Honkai War in Changkong City. It can be said that Moth Chaser has done everything it could.

Each Herrscher, from birth to death, never exceeds a week, as if the heavens are still watching over humanity, allowing them to resolve crises in the most timely manner.

But how many more times can this good fortune last?

Lin knew he couldn't change anything on his own, his combat strength was negligible, but he still walked in that direction as if possessed.

To fulfill a long-standing promise.

Back then, they were still unaware of their fate, and she was still a timid yet gentle young girl.

"Cough cough..."

Suppressing the turbulent consciousness, I walked towards that unknown, unfamiliar path.

Three Honkai zombie.

She coldly watched as the three ferocious Honkai zombie fell to their scythes. The Black Mist surged forward, dismembering the Honkai zombie's bodies. She didn't even look further; after she passed by, nothing remained.

She looked up at the dazzling sunlight, which gave her a bad feeling, a kind of thorny feeling, so she used Black Mist to block the sunlight for herself.

"Soul, what exactly is going on?" Delta, who was in the crowd behind "her", asked "her".

"Minister Delta, you really are always full of curiosity." "She" was particularly patient with her friends, especially these dead friends. "She" turned around and smiled, "You're the kind of person who would carefully read through the disclaimers in mobile apps to find loopholes, aren't you?"

"Your analogy is really..." Delta chuckled dryly, his white robe standing out conspicuously among the crowd. "I remember I was already dead, and even if I wasn't, I wouldn't suddenly appear here... By the way, where exactly is this place? And why are there still Honkai zombie here?"

She paused, then asked, "Minister Delta, don't you remember how you died?"

"I..." Delta shook her head in confusion, "I don't remember, but I'm sure I died in the Fourth Honkai War."

"I don't know what you looked like when you sacrificed yourself. I only know that you piloted the Titan into the wind field to save the combat personnel trapped inside..."

"Oh right! I died because I was piloting a Titan!"

As their conversation deepened, Delta's memory seemed to become clearer, and his eyes became more and more bright, more and more like a living person.

All of this was completely unknown to "her" and she was unaware of it at all. Only after she had determined her opinion and experience of this person would the other party tell her the established facts according to her ideas.

It was a self-deception, but "she" was unaware of it.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that "she" was happy not to notice anything unusual.

"Alarm?"

Su, who was tidying up her things in the office, froze for a few seconds after hearing this alarm she had never heard before, completely bewildered.

The hospital alarm was completely different; its sound was much harsher and sharper, like a warning or an urging.

What does this alarm mean?

Before he could react, the door was violently pushed open, and Doctor Laguna stood in the doorway with a serious expression, urgently saying to Sue, "Sue, go to safety immediately."

"Ragna? What's wrong? What's the alarm doing?"

"I don't have time to explain. In short, hurry up and go to the shelter with Director Fal and the others. The location of the shelter is marked on your phones. They have sent complete information to every resident's phone."

"Wait—" Su was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information. He took a deep breath. "'Them'? Who are they? Why can they activate the city alarm and send messages to residents' cell phones? And what about those critically ill patients? Their condition has deteriorated rapidly, and there are no facilities elsewhere to perform surgery on us."

"...They are the Moths of Fire, the mysterious organization that has been cooperating with us all along." Ragna stepped forward to help Sue pack her things. "As for the patient...don't worry, they have the same equipment there, and it's even more advanced than ours."

"The Moths of Flame?" Although Su had prepared himself mentally, he was still taken aback for a moment when he heard the name again. He asked again, "Aren't they... a medical organization?"

"Medical treatment is only one part of their approach. Rather, they prefer to address the root cause of the problem rather than find a cure." Ragna scratched his short brown hair helplessly. "Unfortunately, I used to be one of them."

"You..."

"Alright, stop asking so many questions. We have more important things to do now. Su, do you remember the disaster in Changkong City?"

How could I forget?

Su still vividly remembers the disaster that caused Kevin to disappear and the mysterious event that turned an entire city into a dead city. It was from that time that Honkai Sickness began to frequently appear in the cities surrounding Changkong City, which is also the reason why he chose to end his advanced studies early and become a doctor.

So he asked with some trepidation, "Is the alarm being issued now the same type as the disaster from back then?"

"Unfortunately, you got it right, but I can't tell you any more. You'll have to find out for yourself after you join the Firemoth."

"Then how did you end up here? Why did you leave the Moth of Fire?"

This was really strange. The former members of the Fire Moth, which Su had always wanted to join, were now standing in front of him, speaking knowledge that Su couldn't understand at all. It was really puzzling.

"Is it strange that I'm here? I hate the Moths that chase fire, so I wanted to save people in my own way, so I switched jobs. Isn't that a simple thing?"

Su was speechless at the strange undertone revealed in this self-righteous statement.

It's as if leaving that organization is as simple as changing jobs.

"Su, in my opinion, you don't necessarily have to join the Fire Moth."

Ragna paused, a strange light flashing in his eyes. "That may not necessarily be a 'good' organization that selflessly dedicates itself to saving lives."

Chapter Seventy-Seven Seems to Be Wrong

"Number 1, how does it feel?"

Sitting in the driver's seat, Prometheus gripped the control stick with both hands, responding calmly to May's question over the communicator, "I feel nothing."

A bionic robot, she doesn't need feelings. She doesn't even have the bodily organs and senses of a normal person. Compared to the Neural Connection she had with Lin Gonglian before, this Neural Connection, which was minimized just to activate Titan, wouldn't have much of an impact on her.

"Very good. Your Neural Connection with the Armed Puppet is similar to connecting circuits to achieve the effect of driving the Titan system, but it cannot achieve the function of Autonomous Titan, and it is far inferior to the autonomous Titan piloted by Lin. However, your mission is to deliver the Titan to Lin, so don't think about fighting."

Armed Puppet?

Prometheus sighed and glanced at the black-haired Armed Puppet sitting in the corner of the cockpit, connected to the system via a data cable.

The design of this Armed Puppet bears some resemblance to May herself, suggesting it was an independent entity requested by Einstein during its creation.

At this moment, Vill-V seized the opportunity to interject, "I've discussed it with May. Her intelligence was personally adjusted by May, so from now on she is Prometheus Unit 3, your sister."

"...I have no concept of family," Prometheus replied.

For some reason, Vill-V was dedicated to instilling a sense of family in Prometheus, making Lin distinct from ordinary helpers and those being helped in terms of identity.

"Number Three, report the situation," Mei ordered.

"The system is currently operating normally and the driver has no organ abnormalities... An abnormality has occurred; the driver has no organs. We request a driver replacement."

"..."

Is this really the AI system that Mei personally adjusted?

Unable to resist some doubt, Prometheus immediately transmitted her data to Number Three through the Neural Connection, which stabilized Number Three, who was about to lose the Neural Connection.

"Well then, Dr. Vill-V and Doctor Mei, let's go..."

"Wait a moment."

Just then, a cold voice stopped Prometheus from attacking.

Mei looked towards the entrance of the Research and Development Department. A white-haired man dressed in a cold suit held a pistol upside down and stared at Mei with his face covered in blood.

"... Kevin."

"Mei, I'm glad you're alright. I've heard the general situation from Hua, and I'll handle the rest."

When Vill-V heard this, she was somewhat surprised and suspicious. She felt that Kevin seemed to have changed in some way.

Mei didn't say much, but asked, "Have the others been settled?"

"The number of combat personnel lost is about one-third. Including the wounded, the number of people who are unable to move accounts for 78%. I have arranged for the remaining High Council officers to be taken care of in one place. I will take the rest of the men to support the Fifth Branch in its campaign against the Sixth Herrscher."

Vill-V could tell that Kevin had changed.

He became even more ruthless.

Every word he uttered was filled with chilling intent, just like his friend, devoid of any emotion, calmly analyzing and directing to find the optimal solution.

Before this, although Kevin had gradually become more taciturn, he actually just stood behind May most of the time, silently carrying out the tasks she assigned.

Now, he is not following orders, but making his own arrangements.

"What happened?" Mei didn't ask, but that didn't mean Vill-V wouldn't. She considered herself to be a rather humane person among these moths that suppressed their true nature.

"It's nothing. One member of the Squad One defected and was executed, one was killed in action, and two were wounded."

Kevin's face was expressionless when he said this.

He was simply stating a fact.

"Rebellion..." Vill-V seemed to vaguely sense the reason for Kevin's change, "So now, you're the only one left in the Squad One who can still move?"

"Yes."

Without much thought, Mei immediately sent a message to the communicators of some people at headquarters. "Everyone except those protecting the High Council officers will go to the front lines with you."

There aren't many combat personnel like Hua who aren't involved in missions at headquarters, but that's enough to form a small squad.

"..."

Kevin did not object. He was well aware that there was a shortage of manpower, and even if he was capable of handling the Herrscher's attack alone, there were too many variables involved, so he had to be fully prepared.

This is not a hero's game. As he told Kosma, the Herrscher will be the hero, but they cannot consider themselves heroes before defeating the Herrscher.
