Chapter 454
Frankly speaking, Kiana thinks it's more likely that the enemy stole the Honkai Energy fission bomb than that the higher-ups secretly sold them.
The next moment.
The sky is burning.
Kevin casually swung the high-quality replica of the Greatsword of Heavenly Fire in his hand, and behind him, it was as if a huge black dragon was roaring to the sky and then spitting out flames.
The incredibly powerful flames shot straight into the sky, carrying the momentum to burn everything to ashes.
"The problem with Honkai Energy fission bomb is that the energy burst after the explosion is too strong. Even if it is detonated in the air, it is enough to level the city several times over."
At this point, Kevin lightly stomped his foot.
Kiana had only created an ice city in the enemy's mind, but Kevin had actually created a similar landscape in reality.
The massive ice city was built atop the city, its magnificent form serving as a sturdy barrier against the energy shockwave from the Honkai Energy fission bomb explosion.
Kevin not only protected the innocent people in the city, but also the lives of the intruders.
"Wait a minute, Master, something's not right."
As soon as Kiana finished speaking, Kevin immediately looked up at the sky, where a dozen or so bright Honkai Energy fission bomb were approaching.
"This number is incorrect. Neither Cocolia nor any of the other high-ranking officials could have allowed the Alliance to lose so many Honkai Energy fission bomb. It doesn't match the inventory. I think..."
"What a coincidence, Master, I also thought of a particularly scoundrel."
Since the Alliance's inventory does not lack this number of Honkai Energy fission bomb, the only explanation is that the enemy has increased the number of Honkai Energy fission bomb.
When Kevin and Kiana realized that the enemy's Honkai Energy fission bomb had increased, they immediately thought of a certain bastard.
Coincidentally, a few months ago, some bastard had been staying in the enemy camp.
"I guessed it was him too, but if it was him, I think all the countries must have been tricked by him."
Considering Otto's style of doing things, Kevin didn't waste any more words. Anyone who knew Otto's personality knew what kind of person he was.
Although Otto had surrendered to various countries, given his personality, it was impossible for him to honestly work for them. It is more likely that he embezzled a large amount of materials from various countries to research the Imaginary Tree.
However, in the end, he realized that if he wanted to go to the Imaginary Tree, he could only do so with the help of the fully functional Second Divine Key, which was the real reason why Otto surrendered to Freya this time.
Of course, since Otto wanted to swindle a large amount of resources, he would definitely have to offer some practical benefits to the countries.
Otto naturally wouldn't leak the design concept of the real Honkai Energy fission bomb, but he did give the oldest and most outdated design concept to various countries, which was also prone to problems.
Honkai Energy fission bomb manufactured using this technology naturally lack the power of genuine products and are extremely prone to problems.
Kevin swung the high-quality replica of the Greatsword of Heavenly Fire once again. This time, several Honkai Energy fission bomb were destroyed before they even got close. Among them, three or five were defective products that exploded suddenly upon contact with the heat wave.
"Luckily, a few Honkai Energy fission bomb problems."
Kevin's Ice City formed a protective barrier, and since he had struck the Honkai Energy fission bomb from a great distance, even though many of those Honkai Energy fission bomb, the energy shockwave after the explosion was still incredibly powerful.
"So strong, no, it's unbelievably strong."
After witnessing Kevin and Kiana's strength, Welt couldn't help but look melancholy.
However, both the long-range attacks and the ice city protecting the innocent were now overloaded. Kevin and Welt were experiencing the same thing, and his power was being rapidly depleted.
"I see. No wonder you were having such a tough time."
Many people know Freya's opinion of Welt, but Kevin only glanced at the street and understood what Welt had encountered.
Given Welt's character, he would indeed lend a helping hand to those in need.
Furthermore, Welt himself was doing his best not to harm these soldiers.
In fact, the enemy's ruthlessness was beyond Kevin's imagination. He built an ice city above the city to shelter the innocent, and in fact, it also sheltered the soldiers who followed orders to the front lines.
But Kevin certainly couldn't bring himself to be bound by this.
Welt was held back by the soldiers because he wanted to protect not only the innocent but also the lives of the invaders.
Right now, the enemy seems to want to use the same methods to continue pressuring Kevin.
Kevin was supporting Ice City, frowned, realizing that things were not so simple.
"Something's not right. The other side is really disregarding the lives of their own soldiers."
"... Let's retreat first, Master. Mr. Welt, we need to take Miss Jiuxiao back for treatment."
Seeing that Kevin still seemed intent on destroying the enemy with a basic attack, Kiana finally couldn't help but speak up.
Even if they were to kill all the invaders who entered the Far East, it would be of no consequence to the World Security Council that was manipulating the coalition forces; on the contrary, it would only make their hands stained with blood.
"Let's go back as soon as possible. I don't know how long Penglai Si Jiuxiao can hold out."
"Who's spying on me...?"
Kevin suddenly frowned and turned to look around. He had just noticed a strange gaze, but no one responded to his question.
The enemy's attacks intensified, and the ice city covering the city was being gradually eroded.
The battle for the Penglai Si Jiuxiao ended much faster than Freya had imagined.
On one side, Kiana used Feather of Dust to freeze minds, leaving the soldiers' minds blank; on the other side, Kevin performed an invincible missile-cutting act.
There's no problem that can't be solved by swinging your hand seriously; if there is, then swing your hand seriously again.
The two are so powerful that they completely disregard regular soldiers. So what if they have crystal bullets? So what if Honkai Energy fission bomb?
Kevin said it wasn't a big problem, that he could handle it all by himself.
However, the ultimate goal of this mission is to bring the repeatedly dying Penglai Si Jiuxiao back to Changkong City. Therefore, their victory will be the moment they return to Changkong City.
"The other side will definitely send air force to intercept us. We might be fine, but if Siegfried, who can't fly, and this Penglai Si Jiuxiao Squad fall from a great height, I estimate..."
Kevin said with a smile.
To return to Changkong City, they must now confront the enemies who are hindering them.
As the atmosphere grew increasingly heavy, Kiana raised her hand.
Kiana, what is it?
"I want to say that the portal has been opened, and we can send Penglai Si Jiuxiao to Changkong City first."
After listening to Kiana's speech, Kevin and Welt both fell silent, especially Welt, who looked at the spatial portal established over such a long distance and couldn't help but shed tears of envy.
So, after some deliberation, Penglai Si Jiuxiao was sent directly back to Changkong City, while Kevin, Kiana, and Welt would impersonate Penglai Si Jiuxiao. At this point, the group was just trying to buy some time.
529. — There are many more!
Both Freya and Aurora possess the power to open long-distance spatial portals, easily transporting people to the other side of the Earth.
Besides, right now, it's just a matter of teleporting the target from one city in the far east to another.
Although a stable spatial portal for a long time requires the combined efforts of Aurora and Freya, she can now teleport a girl who is about to die in just a few seconds.
After Aurora completed the teleportation, she also saw the girl, Penglai Si Jiuxiao, whose skin outside her pajamas had turned deep purple.
Although maintaining the spatial portal for a few dozen seconds wouldn't be difficult, allowing Kevin, Kiana, and Welt to quickly return to Changkong City, the three will continue to play a part in the battle for control of Penglai Si Jiuxiao in order to avoid diverting the Allied Forces' attention to the Alliance.
To be honest, Freya felt she had taken a huge gamble by using top-tier fighters like Kevin and Kiana as bait to buy time.
However, the World Security Council and the Illuminati behind it should not be underestimated. They did indeed produce a large number of Honkai Energy fission bomb based on the rubbish blueprints submitted by Otto.
Even though these Honkai Energy fission bomb are of extremely poor quality, less powerful than the genuine ones, inconvenient to maintain, and prone to premature explosion, they are still Honkai Energy fission bomb.
"Sister, I'm entrusting my father's safety to you."
"Don't worry, Aurora."
Through the spiritual bond between the sisters, Aurora communicated with Kiana.
Even if Freya is currently on the moon, she can still act as a signal station for the two of them. After the communication equipment is disrupted, only Freya and Aurora can contact Kiana on the other side of the battle.
"My second sister said your mission is to buy time and draw the attention of the allied forces, not to attract the attention of any random trolls..."
"Understood. By the way, how is Master Fu Hua?"
"Right now, Master Fu Hua is battling the superego personality within her."
In terms of combat skills, Immortal Fu Hua was superior to Kevin among the forerunners of the Previous Civilization, which naturally made her the mentor of the three sisters Kiana, Freya, and Aurora.
Kiana has an extra mentor Kevin, compared to her two younger sisters, which makes her the strongest fighter among the three sisters. However, Freya and Aurora do not focus on fighting skills.
The former are researchers related to Honkai, while the latter are researchers of space and time.
That being said, as the common master of the three, Immortal Fu Hua held a high position in their hearts. Knowing that she was fighting against the Herrscher Persona in the consciousness space, Kiana couldn't help but worry about her situation.
No one expected that the Honkai Consciousness would personally intervene this time, and that Fu Hua in this world is not only the Herrscher of Consciousness of the eighth sequence, but also the Herrscher of Domination of the tenth sequence.
"Sister, Master Fu Hua will definitely win."
"Yes, you continue to keep in touch with Freya. Kevin and I will try our best to draw the attention of the Allied Forces and the Illuminati."
After communicating through the spiritual link between the sisters, Kiana nodded to Kevin beside her and to Welt, who was impersonating Penglai Si Jiuxiao.
"Penglai Si Jiuxiao has arrived in Changkong City and has been sent to the emergency center. Jackal, Planck, and my mother will personally treat Penglai Si Jiuxiao."
"Black Abyss White Flower?"
"Yes, Mom can drive the clone body for a short time, using the Black Abyss White Flower's 0th rated power."
"By the way, Kiana, where is your father?"
"Yes, that's right. Where is my father?"
Faced with Welt's questions, who was disguised as a young girl, Kiana was confused. She looked around and realized that a familiar figure was indeed missing.
"I shouldn't be affected by the Mind Freeze, right? The power of the Mind Freeze is limited to ordinary people and cannot affect Valkyrie or Fusion Warrior..."
As Kiana finished speaking, Valkyrie from various countries stormed into the ice city.
"Here you are, Kiana."
"Yes, Master Kevin, we will continue with the previous retreat plan. Mr. Welt, please also pretend to be weak."
"Okay, I understand."
Penglai Si Jiuxiao, who was teleported to Changkong City, was immediately sent to the emergency center. With the situation gradually tilting in favor of the alliance, Aurora couldn't help but worry about the consciousness war unfolding nearby.
After Freya deduced that the signal tower interfering with Honkai Consciousness was another personality of Immortal Fu Hua immediately entered his own consciousness space without saying a word and pulled out his superego to fight.
The Immortal Fu Hua sitting beside him had her eyes tightly closed, her brows furrowed and her teeth clenched tightly, clearly going through a fierce battle.
In Fu Hua's consciousness space, Freya's body, like a kite with a broken string, plunged headfirst into the smoke-filled Mount Tai Xu.
Fu Hua's consciousness space is always set against the backdrop of Mount Tai Xu.
However, the burning Mount Tai Xu, with its rising smoke, appeared desolate and bleak, adding a touch of sorrow to this battle of consciousness in addition to the deadly struggle.
At this moment, Fu Hua, on whom the three sisters had placed their hopes, was lying on the ground.
The smell of thick smoke mixed with the earthy odor of burnt weeds kept filling her nostrils. Fu Hua gasped for breath, then coughed, finally exhaling the pent-up air from her chest.
Fu Hua struggled to her feet. She didn't bother to straighten her disheveled robes; her body swayed unsteadily, clearly unable to stand.
But Fu Hua didn't focus on herself at all; instead, she was intently gazing at her counterpart, who was wearing the combat suit of the Fire Moth from the Previous Civilization.
After Freya reminded her that she was a signal tower for Honkai Consciousness to interfere with reality, Fu Hua immediately sank her consciousness into the consciousness space and quickly found the other Herrscher Persona within her.
In fact, even Fu Hua herself did not expect that the Honkai Consciousness would separate her superego and id, and herald both personalities.
If we were to use a simple metaphor to describe the connection between the superego, id, and ego, it would be like comparing them to a car.
The id represents the driving force, like the car itself; the ego represents control, like you sitting in the driver's seat; and the superego represents guidance, like the coach sitting in the passenger seat.
Because the superego is the controller of the personality, located at the highest level of the personality structure, Fu Hua, who symbolizes the ego, is unable to defeat it in the space of consciousness.
At the same time, the superego personality still takes the image of itself from the Previous Civilization era.
Hua in the Previous Civilization era was clearly stronger than himself in any later era.
If Kevin, Freya, and Kiana get stronger over time, then Fu Hua gets weaker over time.
It wasn't for any particularly special reason; initially, she had very few distracting thoughts. Apart from destroying the Honkai, all she had left were memories of Himeko and dissatisfaction with some of the actions of the Fire Moth.
