The Artificial Herrscher, Wendy! / Wendy Wants to Be a Little Naughty, Too!
"Hmph, of course..."
Elysia immediately smiled, gently hugged Ling Xi, and said with a smile, "Then... how about we start working hard now?"
"Forehead?"
Ling Xi felt a little embarrassed and said, "Um... Elysia, let's go home first, and then... after all, this is the Doctor's laboratory."
"Don't worry, no one usually comes in here."
Mobius also came to Ling Xi's side, gently hugged Ling Xi's other arm, and smiled, "Even if someone comes, it will only be Cangxuan and Danzhu, so... I think we can try our best here."
"Huh?"
Ling Xi was even more bewildered. When did the Doctor become so frivolous? Uh... wait, doing experiments in the lab... um...
Well, back in the Previous Era, I was already secretly doing bad things with the Doctor. After all, our Doctor isn't as upright as he seems on the surface.
"Doctor, Elysia, you've gone too far!"
Klein looked at the two men with righteous indignation.
"Senior sister..."
Ling Xi burst into tears. There really is no one better than her senior sister in this world...
How could you two forget me?
Klein then grabbed Ling Xi's leg to prevent Ling Xi from escaping using a spatial wormhole...
Ling Xi "..."
Chapter 714 The Artificial Herrscher, Wendy!
That same day, everyone learned about Kiana, and the reaction was even more enthusiastic than when it happened with Seele two weeks prior.
After all, Seele's relationship with Ling Xi was a natural progression, and after going through so much with her, even if people were envious, they wouldn't say much. But...
What the heck is Kiana? I wouldn't say she just appeared out of nowhere, but... one shot and she's dead, that's just ridiculous!
After that, everyone began to suspect that it might be a matter of probability and number of attempts, especially the two from Yae's family, whose eyes even started to light up with pink hearts...
That very night, Ling Xi nearly passed away...
Two days later, Ling Xi personally led the three starter families back to the St. Freya Academy. Theresa, of course, already knew about Kiana's situation, so she didn't object to Kiana and the others' decision at all, only being somewhat annoyed with Ling Xi...
Theresa herself even wanted to return to headquarters. After all, Schicksal had undergone reforms, making St. Freya Academy no longer as essential as it once was. But...
Now that St. Freya Academy has been established and there are still so many students, if it were to disband, they would have nowhere to go, so...
There was no other way but to continue leading St. Freya Academy.
Two months later...
"Mei, Mei, look, what do you think of this flower?"
At home, Elysia still likes to linger near Mei, as if she really has some special connection with Mei.
"Hmm, very good."
Mei took a quick look and saw that it was a purple flower.
"Hehe, I specially chose the Mei color for you."
Elysia gave Hua directly to Mei.
"Oh... thank you..."
Mei didn't refuse. After saying thank you, she brought the flower to her nose and gently smelled its scent. Hmm... it was a very special scent, but also a very comforting one.
"By the way, where's Ling Xi?"
Mei glanced around the house and realized that Ling Xi was nowhere to be seen since early morning.
"I left early this morning with the Doctor."
Elysia shrugged and laughed, "And they even brought Wendy with them. It seems they were going to do an experiment today, so they left headquarters early this morning. They're probably on the Arctic Circle polar islands right now."
"Polar islands?"
Mei frowned slightly and asked, "Is it the polar island where the polar bear released Tsar Bomba?"
"That's right."
Elysia smiled slightly and said, "Because what they are going to do today is an experiment on Artificial Herrscher, and the Desire Gem... well, or rather the Wind Herrscher Core, plus Wendy, are the two main characters of this experiment."
Since Ling Xi accepted the Doctor's advice and took Wendy in, in the past three months, Ling Xi has raised Wendy's Honkai Energy Adaptability to a level where she can accept the Desire Gem. In addition, with the theoretical time for the appearance of the Fourth Herrscher approaching, therefore...
In order to prevent the Fourth Herrscher from falling into the control of the Honkai God, Mobius decisively initiated the Artificial Herrscher experiment.
As for Wendy...
Although she was a little scared at first, she chose to trust Ling Xi and readily accepted the plan.
After all, once I gain power, I won't be a burden anymore, and I can protect everyone. And most importantly...
If you don't acquire this power, it may become a force that harms your family in the future!
Therefore, I need this strength!
"Wendy, call me if you can't hold on any longer."
Ling Xi stood beside Wendy and smiled, "I'm only a few kilometers away from you. I can use my spatial powers to come to your side at any time and take away the Desire Gem, so you don't need to worry about safety."
"Uh-huh..."
Wendy smiled and nodded, saying, "I believe Ling Xi will definitely protect me, and... I don't want to disappoint Sister Bronya and Seele."
"Heh... Keep it up."
Ling Xi didn't say much, because saying too much might make Wendy nervous.
"Don't worry, don't worry, it's definitely true."
Wendy waved very casually...
"See you later, Wendy..."
"Okay, see you later..."
Ling Xi then used her spatial powers to leave the spot, while Wendy looked at the Desire Gem in front of her, took a deep breath, and prepared herself...
"Start up..."
On the distant floating warship, Mobius activated the Honkai Reactor. Instantly, the barrier binding the Desire Gem vanished, and the powerful Honkai Energy was released entirely onto the Desire Gem and Wendy ...
In Kiana, the Honkai Energy surrounding Wendy surged to 1000 hw, then 1500 hw, 1800 hw, and finally...
2000hw...
The critical value for Herrscher...
"Ahhhhhh..."
In that instant, Wendy felt excruciating pain throughout her body, while a force was continuously penetrating her flesh. Gradually, green light appeared in her eyes, and unprecedented knowledge began to flood her mind...
"Ouch, that hurts..."
Feeling the intense pain in her body, Wendy subconsciously wanted to back away, but...
She was destined to become a future S-class Valkyrie. Although Ling Xi had been with Ling Xi for several years, her training hadn't lagged behind. What was this little bit of pain compared to that? Because...
"This is... my power!"
A resolute glint flashed in Wendy's eyes, and she finally reached out towards the Desire Gem, gently touching it...
"Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...!"
In an instant, a powerful energy hurricane enveloped the entire island, covering an area of at least hundreds of kilometers.
"A spatial wormhole!"
Ling Xi immediately summoned a spatial wormhole, moving the floating warship back over a hundred kilometers. Otherwise, he might be fine, but the warship would definitely be in trouble!
Moreover, even Ling Xi wouldn't dare approach such a Honkai hurricane, because...
Ling Xi felt an even stronger sense of oppression than that of the Previous Era's rhythm!
Therefore, Ling Xi knew very well that Wendy... seemed to be even more powerful than the Herrscher of Wind from the Previous Era. As for the most pathetic Herrscher in the original work, the Herrscher was knocked unconscious by Titan's punch, this time...
It seems unlikely that it will ever appear again.
Although some people joked that Wendy didn't fight three B-rank Valkyrie back then, but rather the three Herrscher of Riviera and Raiden, so it's normal that she was defeated, but...
Ling Xi thinks that with the Honkai Energy Wendy has shown so far, she can probably really go toe-to-toe with the three Herrscher.
The hurricane lasted about a minute, and the Honkai Energy detection device on the warship showed that the Honkai Energy in the core area had exceeded 3000 hw, which was already 50% higher than the energy level of Herrscher, so...
Everyone knows that the Fourth Herrscher is far more powerful than the previous Herrscher!
In short, the Artificial Herrscher project has clearly been a success, and what's next...?
There's only one thing we need to be concerned about: is Wendy still Herrscher on the human side?
Chapter 715 Wendy Wants to Be Mischievous Too!
As the hurricane dissipated, the intensity of the Honkai Energy ahead also decreased sharply.
Mobius immediately contacted Ling Xi via radio. "Ling Xi, hurry, take us there."
"Okay, Doctor!"
Ling Xi didn't waste any time and immediately opened a spatial wormhole, preparing to take the warship to the polar island again.
"Um?"
However, before Ling Xi could fully deploy the spatial wormhole, a green light flew in front of her, so fast that it arrived in front of her almost in the blink of an eye.
"Wendy?"
Upon seeing the owner of the green light, Ling Xi was somewhat surprised, but also felt that it was nothing unusual. After all, Wendy's power was fluid, and manipulating wind was like child's play for her, so it was perfectly normal for her to be fast.
However, Ling Xi was quite surprised to see that this girl had flown over a hundred kilometers in just a few seconds. This speed... for short distances, it was even faster than teleporting through a space wormhole!
After all, opening a spatial wormhole requires a large amount of Honkai Energy, and it also takes a certain amount of time. Furthermore, the furthest he can currently open a spatial wormhole is only about 150 kilometers, but...
At Wendy's current speed, she can cross 150 kilometers in less than five seconds, which is twice the third cosmic velocity. This girl is no longer just aiming to fly into the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun; if she wanted, she could even fly out of the solar system.
"Heh, humans..."
Looking at Ling Xi in front of her, Wendy sneered, "You just lied to me and said it wouldn't hurt the first time, and that implanting Herrscher Core wouldn't hurt much, hah..."
"Forehead..."
Seeing Wendy's murderous aura, Ling Xi immediately felt something was wrong. Could it be... that Wendy was ultimately controlled by the Herrscher's consciousness?
"Ling Xi, prepare to execute Plan B!"
Upon hearing Wendy's words, Mobius immediately prepared to activate Plan B, which was the plan for humanity to deal with and capture the Herrscher if Wendy became an enemy!
Although Mobius wouldn't kill her because of her relationship with Ling Xi and Wendy, he would definitely try to find a way to completely imprison her, after all...
She still vividly remembers how terrifying the Fourth Herrscher of the Previous Era was.
"Haha, just kidding, you idiot."
At this moment, Wendy also laughed and threw herself into Ling Xi's arms, huffing, "I just wanted to complain a little. Do you know how much it hurt just now?"
"Uh... sorry, Wendy."
Looking at Wendy's appearance, Ling Xi knew that this girl was indeed one of their own. As for what happened just now... well, she probably spent too much time with Crimson Seele and became a bit mischievous.
But this is good too, at least I don't have to worry about killing my wife to prove my enlightenment in the end!
Mobius "..."
If you had been just five seconds later, the capture operation would have begun...
Once the plan begins, it will likely be difficult for Wendy to explain things clearly later.
Despite a minor mishap, the Artificial Herrscher project ultimately proceeded successfully without major incident. As a result, humanity not only successfully averted the potential crisis posed by the Fourth Herrscher, but also gained the combat power of a new Herrscher. Meanwhile...
This means that the plan to Artificial Herrscher is feasible. As long as Ling Xi finds the Herrscher prototypes from the original work according to his memory and starts making arrangements in advance, humanity can finally get one more Herrscher!
