Would You Fight a Herrscher for Me?

"Didn't I say I'd be right there?"

Ling Xi looked at the other person with some displeasure. She had asked this guy to wait outside, so why did he have to come in?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ling Xi, but..."

The liaison officer looked somewhat grim as he said, "After the Fourth Herrscher disappeared, we lost contact with her for almost fifteen minutes, but she has just been rediscovered, however..."

"What's wrong?"

Seeing the other person's expression, Ling Xi also had a bad feeling...

"The Fourth Herrscher has arrived in the capital of the Mu Continent and is currently en route to headquarters, target..."

The liaison officer said solemnly, "It should be Dr. Mobius and the Space Core!"

"Protect Seele!"

Ling Xi directly used the power of the Lightning Herrscher Core, using electromagnetic force to pull herself into the sky, preparing to reach the headquarters of the Flame-Chasing Moths as quickly as possible!

At headquarters, anyone can get into trouble, but Elysia and the Doctor absolutely cannot!

Flame-Chasing Moths headquarters...

The conference building has collapsed, and Honkai Beast are everywhere around it. All the combat troops left behind by the Flame-Chasing Moths have been mobilized, but they can only barely suppress the Honkai Beast that keep appearing.

However, there is both good news and bad news at this time.

The good news is that the Fourth Herrscher did not attack the combat forces, so the combat forces can still put up a fight against the Honkai Beast. The bad news, however...

The reason the Fourth Herrscher didn't attack the combat troops was because she was chatting with Dr. Mobius at the moment!

"Hehe, Dr. Mobius, I must say, you are indeed one of the people I admire most, but..."

The Fourth Herrscher hovered in front of Mobius, extended her right hand towards her, and laughed, "The game is over. Give me the Space Core."

Although the Fourth Herrscher could easily destroy Mobius with a wave of her hand, she didn't, because Mobius held extraordinary significance for humanity, and she didn't want to eliminate her for the time being. After all...

As long as humanity loses its Space Core, it wouldn't be afraid even if there were ten more Mobius's, so...

Once she got her hands on the Space Core, Mobius was no threat to her at all. Therefore, she wanted to play with Mobius, the human who had almost posed a threat to her in the past.

"Heh, do you think that's possible?"

At this moment, Mobius's feelings were also very complicated. She had not expected that the Fourth Herrscher would be so fast. In just a quarter of an hour, she had traveled from Oceania to the capital of the Maud Mu Continent, a distance of nearly 5,000 kilometers. The Herrscher of Wind arrived in less than a quarter of an hour...

By the time humanity's satellites locked onto the Herrscher of Wind again, she had already arrived in the capital. Even though Mobius immediately realized that she was most likely looking for him or the Space Core, it was too late to evacuate.

"Ha, do you think you still have the right to resist?"

The Fourth Herrscher casually summoned a gust of wind, which blew Mobius down and slammed him against the wall...

"Ugh..."

Immediately, a trace of blood seeped from the corner of Mobius's mouth, but she still gripped the box containing the Space Core tightly in her hand. After all, she knew very well that once the Space Core fell into the hands of the Fourth Herrscher, humanity would be truly doomed, and even if Ling Xi came, it probably wouldn't make a difference!

However, she was also curious why the Fourth Herrscher didn't just kill her. Could it be...?

Well, it's like a lion catching a weak prey but not killing it, instead slowly toying with it. Indeed, I am completely unqualified to confront the Fourth Herrscher head-on right now.

"Snort..."

The Herrscher of Wind slowly landed about five meters in front of Mobius, stretched out Mobius hand again, and laughed, "Give me the core, and I might spare your life, or even destroy the Mu Continent!"

Not killing Mobius? She might do that for now, but not destroying the Mu Continent? How could that be possible!

I... just wanted to give humanity a little hope, and then I fell into despair again, just like... I thought I had grasped hope, but in the end I was met with even deeper despair!

"Heh... Impossible!"

Mobius was also thinking that he could buy as much time as possible and continued to guard the Space Core. As long as Ling Xi arrived and the Space Core was handed over to Ling Xi, then... there was still hope!

Chapter 241: Are you willing to fight the Herrscher for me?

"That's right!"

Elysia suddenly appeared from behind and shot an arrow at the Herrscher of Wind, thinking, "You're bullying our Doctor, watch out when her husband comes and deals with you."

"Snort!"

The Herrscher of Wind deflected the arrow directly.

"Mobius, are you alright?"

Elysia rushed to Mobius's side immediately to help her up.

"Get out of here quickly!"

Mobius winked at Elysia at the same time felt something being pulled into her arms. Mobius continued, "Don't make pointless sacrifices. Humanity... still has hope!"

"Take care of yourself!"

Elysia turned and ran away without looking back. Although she didn't want to leave her best friend behind, she had more important things to do right now!

"Hahaha, is this your savior?"

Watching Elysia flee in a disheveled state, the Fourth Herrscher let out a tornado-like laugh, showing no intention of giving chase. After all, Mobius and the Space Core were there; no one else mattered, and besides...

She was practically dying of laughter. Humans, is this all?

"Oh..."

Mobius stared at the Fourth Herrscher with a cold smile and asked, "Actually, I'm very curious about something: why... did you do this?"

Of course, Mobius wasn't really curious; he was simply stalling for time. Once the Space Core was delivered to Ling Xi, given Ling Xi's understanding of Space Core, he might not necessarily be unable to defeat the Fourth Herrscher.

Although... the cost will certainly be severe, there is no other way at this point.

"Hmph, do we need a reason to destroy such filthy creatures as humans?"

At this moment, the Fourth Herrscher seemed to have grown somewhat annoyed. She snapped her fingers, and a gust of wind swept past Mobius's palm, blowing the core directly towards him. She laughed, "Give it to me..."

"Um?"

However, even after obtaining the box, she couldn't sense the aura of the Space Core. This was...

We've been tricked!

The Fourth Herrscher immediately thought of the Miss Pink Fairy had just wandered in; it must be her...

The Fourth Herrscher vanished instantly, completely ignoring Mobius. After all... the Space Core was the most important thing. Even if he could kill Mobius in less than a second, he didn't want to waste that second!

Therefore, after realizing she had been tricked, the Fourth Herrscher immediately went after Elysia!

"Whoosh..."

Mobius slumped to the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and laughed, "Ling Xi... Elysia, now... it's up to you."

After Elysia received the Space Core from Mobius, she immediately headed towards Ling Xi with the Space Core in her arms.

"Don't even think about leaving!"

However, Elysia had only run for less than a minute when she heard a familiar voice behind her...

"Whoosh!"

"Bang!"

Sensing the threat behind her, Elysia dodged, almost brushing past the wind blade.

"Hateful..."

The Fourth Herrscher cursed and then summoned a powerful hurricane that attacked indiscriminately, instantly engulfing Elysia. Under such absolute power, no matter how you moved or turned around to attack, it was useless!

"Whoosh..."

Then, the Fourth Herrscher unleashed a wind blade at Elysia.

"Bang!"

Elysia bravely used her bow to block the attack, but the powerful force still slammed her against the wall. She immediately felt pain all over her body; her leg... felt like it was broken...

However, Elysia still held onto the Space Core, something she was... willing to protect with her life!

"Hmph, what cunning humans!"

However, the Fourth Herrscher was clearly less forgiving towards Elysia, directly unleashing several wind blades at Elysia. One can imagine that if they had hit, Elysia would have been reduced to fragments...

"Feel sorry..."

In her final moments, Elysia seemed to see Ling Xi's figure in her eyes. Sure enough, she was still thinking of him until the very end. But... what a pity. She had just completed the 200-shot achievement, and now she was saying goodbye forever...

Elysia silently closed her eyes, for her body was now completely incapacitated...

"Bang!"

However, as the saying goes, the protagonist always makes his appearance at the last moment, and this time, Ling Xi is no exception!

Ling Xi appeared out of thin air almost at the perfect moment, immediately using electromagnetic force to create an electromagnetic shield in front of Elysia, completely blocking the Fourth Herrscher's wind blades, and then...

"Whoosh!"

Ling Xi picked up Elysia while still on high speed and said with both heartache and tenderness, "I'm sorry, Elysia, I... I was a little late."

"Hehe... Idiot, I almost... died."

Elysia almost cried, feeling like she had survived a disaster. But thankfully, this guy finally showed up!

"Uh... I won't do it again next time."

Ling Xi just gave Elysia an awkward smile.

"Whoosh..."

Elysia, however, was clearly no longer in the mood for joking around. She laboriously reached into her robes and pulled out the white, transparent Space Core.

He said weakly, "Here, your Doctor asked me to give this to you. I'm just a deliveryman..."

"Elysia ..."

Seeing that Elysia actually held the Space Core close to her body, Ling Xi was speechless. This girl... is she out of her mind?

However, Ling Xi stopped talking about Elysia at this point, after all...

The most important thing right now is the Fourth Herrscher...

"I know you... Ling Xi!"

The Fourth Herrscher was also keeping a close eye on Ling Xi. Almost the entire world knew Ling Xi's identity, including her, but...

Because Ling Xi had recently disappeared, I hadn't paid any attention to her. I never expected to run into her again.

Ling Xi ignored the Herrscher of Wind, simply carried Elysia to the ground, placed her in a safe spot, and then turned back to her with a smile, saying, "Elysia, do you remember the question you asked me back then?"

"What's the problem?"

Elysia felt some pain in her body and her consciousness was somewhat unclear!

"Mmm..."

Ling Xi thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "You asked me if I would be willing to fight the Herrscher for you, just like I did for Seele, and my answer is..."

Looking back at Elysia, he then held the Space Core and merged it into his body. Simultaneously, his clothes gradually disappeared, revealing the Herrscher's signature outfit. Finally...

Ling Xi, in her Herrscher form, turned to look at Elysia and smiled, "Of course I'm willing!"

"Hehe..."

Seeing the menacing Ling Xi approaching, the Fourth Herrscher knew that this battle was inevitable, so she didn't say anything and silently waited for Ling Xi to make a move!

"Herrscher, you can only be arrogant in the atmosphere. Do you dare to fight me in space?"

After the tragedy in Changkong City, Ling Xi was naturally hesitant to fight the Fourth Herrscher here, especially since Mobius, Elysia Seele, and others were all in the city.

The last battle in Changkong City didn't affect Seele, which Ling Xi felt was due to the protagonist's halo, and she planned to...

This time, Ling Xi was determined not to act recklessly again, so she decisively provoked him, hoping to trick the Fourth Herrscher, Tai Tiankong, into fighting her!

"Ha, sure, I'll be waiting for you!"

The Fourth Herrscher was not intimidated at all. She turned around and flew into the sky. She was not worried that Ling Xi would not come. She could run away, but she could not hide. If Ling Xi did not come, she would just come down again and destroy the city.

Fighting Ling Xi was also one of her ideas, after all...

The Space Core, the Lightning Herrscher Core, and another core of unknown power are all with Ling Xi. Defeating Ling Xi means defeating humanity's last hope, and simultaneously...
