Send Him to Meet Raiden Ryoma

She could sense that after mimicking so many Divine Key in succession, the aura emanating from the other party had become weaker.

"Hahaha~ You guys really surprise me that you've gotten this far!"

But if I were to use this tactic, how would you respond?

While laughing wildly with his hand on his forehead, Shi Hen stretched out his right hand, and a line of firelight burst out from between his fingers.

"This is..."

Sensing an extremely violent aura emanating from her, Durandal's expression changed slightly.

"Mimicry - Phoenix Incinerator".

As he casually uttered those words, the flames in Shi Hen's hand instantly surged and condensed into a giant golden-red sword.

"Phoenix Incinerator! How did you get information on this sword!?"

Yae Sakura cheered enthusiastically.

"Nothing is impossible for me."

Shi Hen said arrogantly, without offering any further explanation.

Having fought alongside the Herrscher of Reason throughout the ages, this core has accumulated a vast amount of weapon data, but Welt Yang has not been able to reproduce them all.

Understanding and reconstruction can actually be seen as two powers.

"Now, prepare to meet your end." With a soft voice, Shi Hen raised his greatsword high. "To protect the name of Welt, I am willing to give my life!"

A hoarse voice rang out, and the Heavenly Fire Greatsword in Shi Hen's hand emitted a light as intense as the sun.

Unlike the mimicry of the Void Archive, the reconstruction of the Herrscher of Reason is a complete reproduction.

As long as the holder is powerful enough, even a mimicked Divine Key can unleash power just like the genuine one.

"Black Abyss White Flower!"

"Seven Thunders of Sin's Purge!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Durandal and Yae Sakura also activated the power of the Divine Key in their hands.

No one can afford to be complacent in the face of the Key of Destruction with the most destructive power— the Phoenix Incinerator.

Just as the Phoenix Incinerator was about to strike, the greatsword suddenly trembled.

The next second, like a holographic image with a poor signal, the golden-red greatsword in the white-haired man's hand suddenly disappeared, and even the aura of [Welt White] himself immediately weakened.

Upon seeing this, Durandal and Yae Sakura stopped what they were doing, unsure whether they should continue fighting.

"Welt! You loser, you actually dare to interfere with me!?"

As if to explain for the two of them, Shi Hen tinged with ferocity.

"A great opportunity!"

Without any intention of discussing martial ethics, Durandal rushed forward, attempting to seize the white-haired man.

But what greeted the golden-haired girl was a deep blue star.

He conjured a Star of Eden and hastily flung it out. Taking advantage of the brief moment Shi Hen Durandal was bound by gravity, Shihen's figure instantly soared into the sky.

"Once I've resolved the issue of the previous Anti-Entropy Leader, I'll have some fun with you."

Furthermore, St. Freya is the most filthy and sinful place in Schicksal. Go and see for yourself, Durandal!

He uttered these words and simultaneously unleashed hundreds of silver Xuanyuan Sword to slow the girl down. In Shi Hen disappeared into the horizon.

"Miss Durandal, then I shall take my leave!"

On the other side, Yae Sakura also spoke, and then sped away in another direction.

Looking at the night sky where she was now all alone, Durandal: "..."

Chapter 209 Sending Him to See the Raiden Ryoma

On a deserted island in Southeast Asia.

After each taking a long detour to avoid possible tracking, Shi Hen and Yae Sakura finally met.

"Thank you for your hard work tonight, Miss Sakura."

Looking at the pink-haired Miko in front of him, still dressed in ninja attire, Shi Hen smiled and said.

After tonight, everyone will understand that Yae Sakura is a staunch rebel against [Welt White].

With a common enemy, the future alliance between the three parties can be more harmonious.

"As I have said, I simply have my own principles."

Faced with the boy's encouragement, Yae Sakura shook her head slightly.

Having lost two important people, she doesn't actually have a deep attachment to the present world.

She chose to help the boy simply because everything he had done so far aligned with her values and beliefs.

"However..." As she spoke, a hint of hesitation appeared on Yae Sakura's face, "Won't my actions really cause you trouble?"

She remembered very clearly that when she first arrived in this era, the boy had told her to be careful.

But tonight... she revealed almost everything she could.

Even though this was something the other party had instructed her to do, Yae Sakura still felt uneasy, fearing that she might mess things up.

"Times have changed. Now it's more advantageous for me for you to be out in the sunlight than to be hidden in the darkness."

Shi Hen chuckled lightly.

Having become the only Welt, [Welt White] naturally needs to have some new pursuits so as not to give Otto too much to think about.

Moreover, he had to make the Bishop Sir understand that the Key of Erosion was not yet complete, thus eliminating any possibility of revealing his identity at this point.

There was nothing he could do; this broken system didn't even give him a clone skill, so Shi Hen had to do things his own way.

"...All right."

Nodding, Yae Sakura didn't delve any deeper into the matter, even though she still had some questions.

In terms of strategy and planning, she knew she was far inferior to the young man.

For example, tonight, whether it was Kiana and Mei from St. Freya, or the bishop from the Schicksal HQ and Durandal, almost everyone's reaction was within the boy's plan.

Yae Sakura a comforting smile, Shi Hen a single gesture with his hand in front of him, and a door that seemed to connect to the starry sky instantly opened in front of the boy.

Although this body lacks the Stigmata and cannot use the Heavenly Origin Domain to relocate the battlefield, it can still open a door to communicate with the Stigmata Space.

Hmm... why does this feel more and more like the Herrscher of Domination?

Shaking his head to shake off these inexplicable thoughts, Shi Hen flicked his fingertips, and a man with short brown hair fell out of the spatial portal. It was none other than Welt Yang.

Well, knowing that the other party could hide their consciousness in the Herrscher Core, the boy would naturally be wary of this move.

Therefore, the moment he defeated his opponent, he used the power of Jizo-Mikoto to force Welt out of the core.

As for why Shi Hen chose to run away at the end of the battle with Durandal, the reason is actually very simple:

We can't beat them!

As the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal, Durandal's status is quite high.

Even with two Herrscher Core at his disposal, Shi Hen was still helpless against the Herrscher when he could only use Herrscher powers.

After all, the other Divine Key are almost useless to Durandal, and Shi Hen cannot truly mimic the Phoenix Incinerator in battle.

If he did that, his Soul Steel body would melt first.

Otto was able to use his Soul Steel body to mimic the Heavenly Fire in battle because the Void Archive's potential was not high to begin with.

The Heavenly Fire Greatsword, reconstructed using the power of the Herrscher of Reason, can utilize the Zero Rated Power.

Even more advanced Annihilation Form are within their grasp.

This is the difference between the Divine Key and the Herrscher.

Of course, if he were to actually mimic the Greatsword of Annihilation, it's unclear whether he could defeat Durandal, but Shi Hen himself would definitely melt first.

Compared to his true form, his Soul Steel Body was far too fragile.

If he hadn't been too busy to change his account during this time, Shi Hen would never have used his Soul Steel body to fight Durandal.

For example, in the fight just now, if it had continued, it would have escalated to close combat, and then Durandal would have pinched his Soul Steel cheeks and made a squeaking sound.

The difference in basic attributes is too great. Even if Durandal stands still, Shi Hen would have a hard time breaking through the girl's defenses in close combat.

Even though she appears to be a beautiful and charming blonde mature woman, Durandal's inner strength is harder than diamond.

Moreover, if he doesn't find some problems with the core of the Herrscher of Reason, how can he legitimately give it to Bronya?

Shi Hen had absolutely no interest in the core of the Herrscher of Reason.

Or rather, the boy was not interested in any of the Herrscher Core originating from the Cocoon of Finality, because:

[New Player Quest - St. Freya's Gate: You have already witnessed the madness of this world. It's time to join a secret organization Anti-Honkai and find a group of like-minded companions to save the world. (Completed)]

You have received a new reward: Divine Body.

[Divine Body: Your body can accommodate exotic energies.]

This is the reward that Shi Hen received after St. Freya. Freya and completing the true beginner quest.

Unlike the previous abilities, this time the description of the [Divine Body] is extremely concise, without even explaining what alien energy is.

It wasn't until Shi Hen obtained the core of the Herrscher of Reason and triggered the [Divine Body] that he finally understood that those cores from the Cocoon of Finality were actually all alien energy.

Conversely, the power awarded by the system was deemed to belong entirely to him.

Clearly, this is a silent reminder from the system: keep your distance from the core of the Cocoon of Finality, because acceptance is not the same as assimilation.

If Shi Hen wants the Herrscher Authority, he can only use the Void Herrscher Core Synchronization, which is what truly belongs to him.

The system was reminding him not to be branded with the mark of the Cocoon of Finality.

Therefore, in the battle with Durandal just now, Shi Hen actually only used the Herrscher of Herrscher of Reason Core as a tool and did not truly become the Herrscher of Reason.

As for stealing... no, I mean borrowing the Schariac line, [Welt White] is a villain, so it's only natural that he would lie and deceive people, right?

The best course of action for now is to continue to lie low and wait for the next Herrscher to slowly arrive.

Shi Hen couldn't help but sigh.

The current Herrscher sequence is only at the third level; many of the powers haven't appeared yet.

He had a premonition that the system wouldn't be able to provide many Void Herrscher Core, so he had to carefully choose each authority.

"How is Chi You?"

As he asked, Shi Hen took out the two Herrscher Core from the body, put them in small boxes, and casually tossed them into the Stigmata Space.

The space is filled with a large amount of Honkai Energy. Although the Stigmata Space cannot store very ordinary items, the Herrscher Core is obviously not among them.

It's quick and easy to use, highlighting its simplicity and convenience.

"Chi You's emotions are relatively stable, but..."

As she spoke, Yae Sakura showed hesitation on her face.

"Just what?"

Shi Hen pressed for an answer.

"She... eats too much."

Yae Sakura looked embarrassed.

Despite having the same loli-like figure as Jilin, her appetite seemed bottomless.

These past few days, she's been wandering around Shenzhou with Chi You, and he's almost eaten up her and Himeko's half-year budget, causing Himeko to frequently argue with this Judgment-class Honkai Beast.

Shi Hen: "..."

As one of the superior species, Chi You clearly does not need to eat; he can keep moving as long as there is Honkai Energy.

"Forget it, let her be. I'll just approve more funding for you."

He waved his Shi Hen dismissively.

He holds the financial power of the World Serpent Organization, so how could he not even afford to support a single Judgment-class Honkai Beast?
