Cocolia: If You Try to Run, I'll Break Your Legs! / Mei (Mo Yi): There's a Power Called Ripple Hamon
Mo Yi had planned to give Bronya a head pat, thinking that no matter how arrogant Bronya was, she would eventually fall to Mo Yi head pat. However, he never expected that his Future Sight, which he had been using, would suddenly reveal a guy with a syringe in Bronya's shadow who was attacking him.
In the Future Sight, the needle pierced Mo Yi's skin and broke off instantly. After all, Mo Yi was still wearing the passive skill of the Stone Mundo, Granite Shield. Let alone a mere syringe, even a watermelon knife would only break it off.
Having witnessed this scene, Mo Yi naturally switched skills, allowing the opponent to successfully ambush him. He was hoping the opponent would lead him to Cocolia's lair.
Knowing is one thing, but those who need to perform still have to put on a good show.
Mei (Mo Yi) looked at the sudden attack that appeared from Bronya's shadow with puzzlement in her eyes.
Bronya, who had just been redeemed and wanted to continue her yuri antics, was stunned by the sudden attack. Enraged, she roared in her emotionless voice, "Heavy-duty Rabbit 19C!"
With Bronya's roar, a floating robot appeared behind her and then slammed its steel right fist into the outstretched hand of the shadow on the ground.
"Boom--"
Unfortunately, the owner of the hand on the ground seemed to have anticipated this, and immediately retreated into the shadow. Then, he quickly broke away from Bronya's shadow, and a black shadow appeared in their sight. Then, a man with an ordinary appearance emerged from the shadow.
"That's really dangerous—"
Bronya reached down and pulled the syringe out of Mei's (Mo Yi's ) calf, then stared at her warily, saying, "Mother's Shadow Unit (abbreviated as Shadow Unit)?!"
In this Honkai Impact 4 world where there are people with special abilities, Cocolia naturally wouldn't rely solely on the talents from the orphanage. The Shadow Unit is a small team composed of Cultivator that Cocolia has gathered, specifically to help her carry out all sorts of shady missions.
"That's right, I am Number 3, and I am here on orders from the Commanding Officer to assist you in capturing Raiden Mei."
The man who called himself Number 3 looked at Bronya and Mei (Mo Yi), who was being shielded by Bronya, with a fake smile on his face. He laughed and said, "The inhibitor has already been injected into her body. Pulling out the syringe now would be a Honkai Energy and Aura energy, which are common energies, will be suppressed."
"Your mission is complete, Miss Bronya."
Bronya didn't show any change in expression. The giant cannon in the left hand of the Heavy-duty Rabbit on her back was still pointed at the opponent. In her mind, she was thinking about the situation. Based on the opponent's performance just now, she guessed that the opponent's ability should be related to shadows.
The opponent had clearly been lurking in his shadow, and his and Sister Mei's positions were such that his shadow fell on Sister Mei, giving the opponent the perfect opportunity and angle to strike.
At the very least, the opponent has the ability to hide their body in shadow. It's uncertain whether simply attacking the shadow would be able to harm them. Besides, this is a school, and Heavy-duty Rabbit can't use high-powered artillery fire, otherwise innocent students might get hurt.
Damn it (>皿<), what should I do now?
"It seems you really are preparing to Anti-Entropy, just as Commander Cocolia said, Miss Bronya."
Bronya's actions at this moment undoubtedly demonstrated his attitude. Number 3 sighed and said, "Then I'll have no choice but to take you back to the base as well."
"Come on, if you dare!"
Bronya stared at Number 3 and said:
"If you dare to come any closer, Bronya will not hesitate to open fire."
"Bronya— "
At this moment, another somewhat gloomy female voice came from another direction. Following the sound, Mo Yi saw a girl with asymmetrical purple and pink hair walking out from another corner. She had a strange smile on her face as she looked at Bronya and Mei (Mo Yi).
Mo Yi: "..."
With that asymmetrical purple-pink hairstyle, that Yandere smile, and the burning gaze in her eyes when she looked at Bronya, Mo Yi instantly guessed her identity— An Mahr, the guy who ambushed him with a sniper rifle two weeks ago and then had his elbow chopped off by him.
"I never expected you to betray us for the sake of the mission target!"
At this point, An Mahr's gaze shifted from Bronya to Mei (Mo Yi), and that burning gaze instantly transformed into intense hatred and jealousy.
Even if Mo Yi couldn't read minds, based on the plot he knew, he could roughly guess what the other person was thinking at that moment.
After finally getting rid of the troublesome person (Seele), there is finally no one who can stop him from being with Bronya.
But why?! Now Raiden Mei has appeared again, stealing my Bronya's love once more?!
I knew Bronya first, even Seele didn't know Bronya as long as I, An Mahr! Why does your gaze never linger on me?!
That's right, as long as I eliminate all the troublesome guys just like I eliminated Seele, Bronya will be An Mahr!
"Apricot--"
Looking at An Mahr, the person she least wanted to see and didn't know how to get along with in the entire Anti-Entropy, Bronya was glad that she was an emotionless loli, otherwise she really wouldn't know what expression to show.
Are you going to try and stop me too?
"No--"
An Mahr revealed a maniacal smile and said:
"I just want you to understand, Bronya, that you can't escape."
"Listen to me, Cocolia's mother is still waiting for you."
An Mahr: Bronya and the like won't give you a chance to leave me. If you want to escape me, then break your legs again, hahaha!
Bronya: "..."
Bronya knew long ago that the other party was a monster, both psychologically and in terms of personal strength, and that humans had no way to persuade monsters.
After glancing back at Sister Mei, who looked exhausted and on the verge of fainting, Bronya remained silent for a few seconds before following her heart—to protect Sister Mei!
Under Bronya's control, the Heavy-duty Rabbit fired its guns at An Mahr and Number 3 with both hands respectively.
"Let's go—"
The Heavy-duty Rabbit picked up Mei (Mo Yi) in one arm and ran off in a certain direction.
Just as An Mahr and Number 3 were about to give chase after the attack, the shell fired by the Heavy-duty Rabbit suddenly exploded, bursting into a dazzling light.
That's right, what Heavy-duty Rabbit fired wasn't a cannonball, but a flashbang, intended to delay the two and give Bronya a chance to leave Senba Academy, where there were still unknown numbers of Anti-Entropy operators lurking there.
Only by staying far away from the teaching building and being skilled in various forms of firepower can the Heavy-duty Rabbit launch a counterattack.
PS: Chapter 265, Princess Arc 62: Upon hearing Remilia's order, Hong Meiling looked troubled. After hesitating for a few seconds, she decided to obey. After all, her salary had been deducted for ten years, and she couldn't even go to the Human Village to buy food normally. Now, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make money. So, she put away her lazy expression, looked at Mo Yi and the Princess, and said with a warning tone, "Two guests, could you please stop here and turn back? After all, this is the duty of the Hakurei Shrine Maiden." "Otherwise, once I enter that state, even I won't be able to control myself. Don't say I didn't warn you." "Hmph—" Not to mention that the Princess wouldn't back down in her normal state, she was even less likely to back down now. The Princess was a woman who dared to commit suicide; what could possibly scare her? "The little bat has captured my maid and is trying to suck her blood. You're calling me back now?" "I advise you to be kind. I'm a little irritable today, and I might go a bit too far!" If verbal sparring could solve problems, there would be no war. In the end, the two sides remained locked in a stalemate, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.
Chapter 364: Mei (Mo Yi): There is a power called Ripple Force
Bronya's sudden and dazzling move was quite successful. It allowed her, a stationary ADC with slow movement speed, to travel quite a distance away from the teaching building before being caught by An Mahr and the shadow-manipulating Shadow Unit Number 3.
"Boom!"
Bronya suddenly stopped, and then an explosion suddenly occurred in front of her. This was clearly the signature skill of the Honkai Crown Bomb user, An Mahr – Time Bomb.
