Chapter 342
Elysia: "Mei, I understand how anxious you are, but you should also think about your safety sometimes."
Raiden Mei: "Remember that."
Lady Mei feels that she is different from the Mei.
Even after storming the Schicksal Headquarters, wiping out the entire Immortal Blades Squad, and declaring, "[You're only good enough to go toe-to-toe with Pardo], "Mei still felt that she was different from the Mei.
She's going to inherit ME Corp, how can she be so reckless?
Kiana: "You strategist, what did you mean by 'half-baked Herrscher' before? Aren't Bronya and I Herrscher?"
Jackal: "Tsk, isn't it clear enough? You are not complete Herrscher, at least not in terms of power; you are completely out of the running for Herrscher."
Jackal: "The first generation Herrscher of Reason, the Herrscher of the Void Second Honkai War, and even the Herrscher of Thunder awakened with the help of World Serpent —which one of them was weak?"
Now let's look at the rest of them.
Some were knocked down by a single punch from Titan Mech, while others only knew how to drive motorcycles from beginning to end. Kiana fared slightly better, but she had more than one Herrscher Core within her body.
It's so embarrassing, it's almost unbearable to watch.
Bronya: "Then how can one become Herrscher in the true sense of the word?"
Jackal: "This involves World Serpent secrets; you'll have to ask the Lord."
Kevin: "If you need help, I can assist... well, for Elysia's sake."
If Kevin can nurture Raiden Mei, he can naturally also awaken the other Herrscher to their full potential, giving them strength commensurate with their Herrscher status.
Herrscher of Reason: "Kevin, you're really that kind? Aren't you afraid that Kiana and the others will stop your Stigmata Project after they awaken?"
Kevin: "If you dare to come, then give it a try."
Bronya: "..."
Kiana: "Can't afford to mess with them, goodbye!"
Wendy: "It's none of my business."
The allure of fully awakening and gaining power is undeniable, but the Herrscher are still somewhat hesitant to approach the Deliverance Flame-Chasers.
They all knew that Kevin and the Herrscher had a deep-seated hatred for each other.
If Kevin gets angry and starts killing everyone, taking down the kids one by one, they won't be able to escape.
Raven: "Now that you mention it, I'm reminded of something. Was the reason your powers were taken away by the Thousand-Man Herrscher really because you were too weak?"
Kiana: "Slander! Absolutely slander!"
Wait a minute, the Himeko suddenly realized that the only victim so far was Bronya, and it wasn't even clear whether her powers would be stripped away. Why was it so agitated?
Bronya: "The Jackal's guess must be wrong. Even the class monitor has had her powers taken away. Is it because the class monitor is weak?"
Bronya: "The difference in strength between Sister Mei and us is huge, but not with the class president."
Bronya crossed its arms, looking confident in its well-reasoned reasoning.
Otto: "Old friend, have even you been stripped of your powers?"
He was initially enjoying the show, but Bishop Otto was somewhat surprised when he heard that even the Immortal Crimson Bird had suffered a setback.
Fu Hua: "This is a matter I'd rather not recall."
Otto: "But that doesn't make sense. Schicksal's medical treatment can restore you to your original state. Even if your Sword Heart is shattered, you will still have extraordinary physical qualities and a complete immortal body."
Judging from the previous exchange between the Herrscher of Reason and Kevin, the Immortal Crimson Bird's body has fully recovered. Even without the Herrscher consciousness replacing Sword Heart, he still has the physical attributes to rely on.
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be possible for him to lose to a weak Thousand-Man Herrscher.
Theresa: "Grandpa, I understand what you mean now, Fu Hua. You're not just putting on an act for us, are you?"
In the past, Theresa would never have said such a thing.
However, after witnessing the Flame-Chasers Memory Body of the Previous Era Elysian Realm, they had full confidence in Hua, that is, Fu Hua's strength.
Even if the Sword Heart of five thousand years is shattered, it is not something that Thousand-Man Herrscher can handle.
Fu Hua: "What are you acting for? Dean, please don't joke around."
The Herrscher of Reason: "Hahaha, you Old Timer, your secrets have been exposed! Hurry up! Tell me what you're really thinking, even if it's just a secret."
Fu Hua: "I don't know either."
The Immortal Crimson Bird covered his head in shame.
To fight Thousand-Man Herrscher to this extent and have one's powers stripped away is truly a disgrace to the Flame-Chasers.
Even if Griseo had played, she would have done better.
[In the scene, Raiden Mei enters the Theater of Domination, and a floating city comes into view.]
"The scenery is different from before; is this the outer perimeter of the theater?"
Raiden Mei lowered her head in deep thought.
There were no unexpected incidents caused by spatial disturbances, but because she was in such a hurry, she ended up in an unknown area, with no idea what awaited her ahead.
It's already a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
If she could achieve her goal as soon as she entered the Theater of Domination, Raiden Mei would have to wonder if she had fallen for the fist of the Thousand-Man Herrscher.
"Get out of here, get out of here, you're not welcome here!" The dolls' voices echoed in Raiden Mei's mind.
"I know that's why I came—because you didn't welcome me."
Raiden Mei scanned her surroundings but did not find the doll.
But with the power of the Herrscher of Thunder, the voices of the dolls became a line between the two, and following her intuition and senses, Raiden Mei approached the dolls.
"You have no right to step into the Theater of Domination! We have other guests to attend to, don't bother us!" the puppets shouted.
Raiden Mei raised an eyebrow. "I'm here to get in your way, so why are you in such a hurry to get rid of me? Are you afraid of me?"
"Afraid? Hahaha! Who would be afraid of a naive little girl, without any opinions of her own, blindly following others, and only knowing how to depend on them!"
The puppets raised their voices, but the more they did so, the more insecure they seemed.
"Watch out, or we might steal your powers and use them as toys too!"
"Alright, if you can do it." Raiden Mei drew her sword and, in a flash, transformed into a bolt of lightning, instantly appearing before the Thousand-Man Herrscher.
A monster blocked Raiden Mei's path. With a flash of her blade, Raiden Mei sliced the monster in two.
When I looked up, the doll was gone.
She ran away.
Raiden Mei was about to give chase when a large number of Raiden Mei Honkai Beast appeared on the other side of the road, blocking her path.
Raiden Mei frowned, then slowly crouched down, the booming lightning gathering in her hand and gradually spreading to the blade.
The lightning bolts transformed into swift shadows, instantly slicing several monsters into pieces.
Then came the second cut, the third cut...
By the time Raiden Mei sheathed her sword, the remains of monsters were piled up behind her.
"What's going on? This level of Honkai Beast can't affect me. The Thousand-Man Herrscher Should know that."
Raiden Mei lowered her head in deep thought, the clues gradually piecing together in her mind.
"The monsters created by the Thousand-Man Herrscher are not Infinity; it requires them to expend their power, so they are holding me back."
"Or perhaps, in places I don't know, they have other enemies... Who are they?"
Boom!
A certain possibility exploded in Raiden Mei's mind. Her eyes widened, and when she looked at the Thousand-Man Herrscher again, her eyes were filled with killing intent.
"Haha, judging from your expression, you've sensed something's wrong, haven't you? You really want to know who that person is, don't you?"
The voice of the Thousand-Man Herrscher rang in Raiden Mei's ears once again.
"Unfortunately, we won't tell you unless you leave behind the Herrscher's powers."
Raiden Mei bit her lip, murmuring that person's name, "Kiana!"
That's the only way.
While Kiana was fighting the Thousand-Man Herrscher, she was also engaged in a fierce battle with the Thousand-Man Herrscher on the other side.
Thinking of this, Raiden Mei felt a chill run down her spine, and purple lightning spread from beneath her feet, heading straight for the Thousand-Man Herrscher.
This time, the Thousand-Man Herrscher was caught in the lightning before he could even dodge.
The instant the doll was paralyzed, Raiden Mei swiftly sliced off its head with her knife.
"This guy is completely different from what the intelligence said."
"Are you sure you've got the right person?"
Faced with the dolls' suspicions, Raiden Mei simply sneered, "Perhaps your information is too outdated!"
There's no doubt about it anymore. The Thousand-Man Herrscher wouldn't dare infiltrate World Serpent to gather information about her. The Theater of Domination may sound grand, but they're nothing but a bunch of cowards.
Raiden Mei turned around and with a single slash, severed another doll's arm.
The last three dolls were cornered. "Bastard! Aren't you ashamed to bully such weak Herrscher like us?!"
"Won't."
Raiden Mei crossed her arms, her expression completely unmoved.
Purple Thunderclap surged across the sky, and with her next strike, Raiden Mei prepared to teach the Thousand-Man Herrscher a lesson they wouldn't forget.
The video ends here.
Elysia: "Pfft, hahaha, what's going on? I suddenly find the Thousand-Man Herrscher doll kind of cute. Mei, you're so heartless."
No matter how arrogant she was before, when Raiden Mei cornered her, the helplessness, weakness, and pitifulness on the face of the Thousand-Man Herrscher were fully displayed.
There is absolutely no element of fabrication involved.
Raiden Mei: "The Thousand-Man Herrscher is nothing special, or rather, ridiculously weak."
Mei couldn't help but shake her head.
Too weak, absolutely too weak.
If the Thousand-Man Herrscher's abilities are limited to this, he doesn't even have the power to force her to draw [Thousand Blades], let alone experience the Setsuna flash of lightning from her.
Life is truly as lonely as snow.
Otto: "Now we can almost say for sure."
Durandal: "It's not that the Thousand-Man Herrscher are strong, but rather that our Herrscher are too weak."
Bronya: "..."
Only the Bronya's eyes were vacant, completely devoid of any sparkle.
No! Why is this happening?!
From now on, will the label of "weak Herrscher" be forever attached to her?
Chapter 556 Welt is exposed
Bronya Zaychek, the successor of the Herrscher of Reason, rides Heavy Machinery Rabbit and wields the Herrscher of Key of Reason. Her predecessor was the renowned Ural Silver Wolf, a figure in the underground world.
A glorious history, no matter how you look at it, cannot be associated with the word "weak".
However, ever since inheriting the Herrscher of Reason Core, he has been suffering repeated setbacks and humiliations.
He's either getting humiliated, or on his way to getting humiliated on his motorcycle.
There was even a weak Herrscher quality inspector; Thousand-Man Herrscher personally labeled her a weak Herrscher, making her the first victim.
Kiana: "Hahaha, Bronya, you're so lame! I thought the Thousand-Man Herrscher was really powerful, but Mei took her down in no time."
This Bronya is so lame.
If it were Kiana, she would go to her stinky father and Fehu, letting the puppet see what it means for a single spark to start a prairie fire!
Bronya: "You idiot Kiana, do you think you're any better? Don't forget, when Sister Mei was beating up Thousand-Man Herrscher, you were also struggling on the sidelines."
Kiana: "It's not a tough battle, I'm definitely chasing after Thousand-Man Herrscher."
