Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

By following the trail, they can find where the living are.

"Bronya will pick you up."

Driven by the power of the Herrscher, the modified Heavy Bunny immediately transformed into a motorcycle upon hearing the command.

Motorola duck casually sat down, then patted the back seat, gesturing for Ziyao to get on.

"By the way, do you have a driver's license?"

"No."

"..."

It doesn't matter, anyway, it's the middle of nowhere, and whether the thing that died was even human is another matter.

Holding her skirt down with her hand, she straddled the motorcycle.

He lost his balance and almost fell onto Bronya's back.

Feeling the car shake, Bronya said with concern, "Don't push yourself, you look very weak."

"Thank you, I can hold on a little longer."

After using the doll intensively for several days and even taking a hit from Kevin, its durability is almost worn down.

"Sit tight."

Twist the throttle, and the engine roars to life.

There was no support behind the seat, which left Ziyao unsure of where to put her hands.

Just as she hesitated, Bronya took her hand and placed it on her slender waist.

Half-heartedly, Ziyao hugged her waist from behind.

The two started their car and drove along the dilapidated road.

Everywhere was a scene of desolation, with human corpses rotting and fermenting in the hot air, emitting a stench that made one grimace.

A blazing sun hangs in the sky, bringing not hope, but the merciless scorching of everything.

The wind blew through Bronya's long hair, swaying it backward and occasionally brushing against Ziyao's face.

Just like the girl's personality, her hair has a very mild fragrance, but it is like a cup of fine tea that has been aged for many years. The more you savor it, the sweeter the aftertaste becomes.

Bronya felt there were no living people ahead.

The further you drive, the more corpses you see around you.

It wasn't as exaggerated as the bloodbaths described in the book, but the scene was still very impressive.

People lay sprawled on the road like useless trash, covered in dust, allowing flies and insects to swarm around them.

"The tire tracks are pointing this way, it wouldn't hurt to go and take a look."

You'll find out what Kevin is trying to show by simply driving straight ahead.

Finally, they arrived at a campsite.

Soldiers were everywhere, but Ziyao lied and said they were survivors, and successfully blended in.

"Mei...?"

As she wandered aimlessly, Bronya suddenly stopped.

The two arrived at the camp and saw a purple-haired woman in a white coat talking to a soldier. She seemed very anxious and was holding a stack of research materials in her arms.

She wore glasses and exuded an intellectual air.

Realizing that someone had broken into the core camp, the armed soldiers hurriedly asked the two to leave, but were stopped by 'Mei'.

"Are you the two survivors?"

When the Lawbringer erupts, there shouldn't be any survivors.

Upon hearing the report from the gatekeeper, she immediately granted permission for the two to enter.

Just as I was about to send someone to invite them, they came over in person.

Thinking this, she extended her hand and said, "Nice to meet you. I am Dr. MEI. Could you please provide a blood sample?"

They wanted to have their blood drawn right away, which was a bit impolite, but it was necessary and made it easier for them to study the Honkai.

"I would be delighted. May I make a small request?"

“You look a lot like one of my friends, and I want to get a closer look at you.”

"Yeah...okay."

Although Mei didn't understand, Ziyao was a very cute girl, and it wouldn't hurt to get closer to her.

The next second, her cheek was suddenly pinched and pulled a few times, like a rubber band.

"The softness is acceptable, but the reaction isn't cute enough."

As Ziyao evaluated the two women, she carefully compared their differences.

There's no difference in chest size, but MEI is slightly taller...

"Clothing verification...ahem, verification complete. It seems they are not the same person."

Kevin, who was observing alongside Mebius from the shadows, had a slightly stiff smile.

Möbius knew why, of course, and thought to himself, "Well done, Ziyao."

"Is that enough?"

In terms of personality, MEI is just as straightforward and innocent as Mei.

Her face turned red after being touched a few times, even though it was just simple physical contact.

"Judging from your equipment, you must not be ordinary people."

"All the fusion warriors are dead, and precious Honkai body samples are exposed in the wilderness."

“I know this request is difficult, but I would like to ask you to go and get it back.”

When Mei said 'they' were all dead, his eyes dimmed a little.

At the same time, Ziyao also roughly understood the current timeline.

The Fusion Warriors are all dead... which means that the culprit behind all this disaster is the Herrscher of Binding.

We are now at a point in time when the 'tragedy of constraints' is taking place.

The Herrscher's ability is simple: to strip Honkai energy and bioelectricity from the area, which is practically cheating.

"If even the fusion warriors can't survive, are we doomed to never return?"

“You came back from the wilderness, right? That’s within the restricted area.”

Since they were able to return from there, they must possess the ability to enter the restricted area.

"It might be different from what you think..."

Ziyao thought about it and decided it was best not to say anything.

This is a fake world, and it seems that the power to restrain them cannot be restored, which is why they are safe and sound.

"I know this request is unreasonable, but none of us can get in, and humanity may become extinct as a result."

More than 80% of the frontline bases lost contact, and the Fire Moth suffered heavy losses.

Their only hope now lies in the wilderness, and they must seize it.

"As an apology, I will personally accompany you to the boundary."

"Dr. MEI....!"

The soldiers stood up to object, saying that her death would mean the entire organization would lose its leader.

"I believe in both of you."

Her gaze was discerning; she fixed her eyes on Bronya and realized that she possessed the power of a Herrscher.

Is it the Key of God?

No, they're not very similar.

This reaction is very similar to that of a Herrscher, but how could that be? A Herrscher would side with humanity.

In any case, none of that matters; what we need now is their assistance.

"No problem, let's get going without delay."

The girl pondered for a moment, then agreed to her request.

Her hand was suddenly taken, and when she looked up, the girl was smiling at her.

Kevin: ??????

Volume 1: Chapter 206 What I Want to Express (Part 2)

We were walking through the desolate ruins of the city.

Looking back, there is no starting point; looking forward, there is no end in sight.

Bronya can not only ride a motorcycle, but also off-road vehicles.

Before arriving at their destination, MEI explained the current situation to the two of them.

After the appearance of the Eleventh Herrscher, communications were severely disrupted, making it impossible to contact the surrounding areas.

You can probably guess that other places are not much different from here.

The fusion warriors, who were supposed to be the main fighting force, were rendered useless and were almost entirely wiped out.

This Riding Lawbearer seemed to be designed by God specifically for humanity; his strength was so overwhelming that it inspired despair.

"The tragedy of constraints..."

Leaning against the window, Ziyao murmured.

MEI was surprised. They had just finalized the name of the eleventh Herrscher and had not yet announced it to the public. Could this girl read minds?

"In a narrow sense, it was indeed a tragedy in terms of the disaster it caused to humanity."

"What else do you know about this Herrscher?"
