I am a hero of the former civilization.

People opened their mouths wide in silence, and all that could be heard was the violent beating of their hearts.

What exactly happened? Who self-destructed? Is this the end of the world?

Vinal hesitated for a moment, then turned around, shield in hand. Eden sat on the ground, his amber eyes wide open.

"Miss Eden, it's time to retreat."

He called out to remind her, but saw the girl's eyes harden again.

"If Ryan loses, can we escape?"

“This… there’s no way we can escape.” As the most experienced commander, Vinar didn’t even need to think about this answer.

"Then why run? I want to see the outcome here, to see if it's destruction or hope." Eden stood up, exuding an undeniable aura. "His battle is not over, and neither is mine!"

Given the current strength of the Herrschers, Ryan's defeat would be the end. Even if Alicia and the others remained, they wouldn't be able to survive for long. Moreover, if they tried to escape, they would be attacked by one of the hidden Herrschers.

“Fine, I’ll wait until the very end too.” Vinar gritted his teeth and roared, “Second squad, deploy the Honkai energy shield outside the stadium. I’m going to turn this place into an island.”

A deep blue shield unfolded, resisting the terrifying tsunami, resembling a solitary, azure island in the center of the raging inferno.

"See? This is what humans are like. They can be scared by just one look from you, but they also face the end of the world without backing down an inch."

Ryan crossed the burning ocean and saw that the fire giant had been blasted badly, with half of its body destroyed.

Something created purely from Honkai energy can only be annihilated by energy. Ordinary missiles and shells would self-destruct before they even get close, and a huge amount of Honkai energy is needed to destroy it.

Ryan can do it himself, but he'll be exhausted after defeating him, which would just be handing the kill to the Flamebringer.

"So, I found a scapegoat, and it worked pretty well."

John's self-destruction did not destroy the Flame Law, but it also created a crack in the seemingly insurmountable Wall of Sighs. Before the energy could be repaired, Ryan seized the opportunity to attack.

The Herrscher did not disconnect. In the instant of that inexplicable explosion, He was already prepared. When the sea of ​​fire was cut open by a bolt of lightning, the already raised flaming greatsword came crashing down.

This is also pure Honkai energy, but the giant halberd was damaged too much and was shattered before it could have any effect. This giant sword is only twenty meters long, so it seems a bit thinner.

It worked! If you had unlimited energy, what would be the point of fighting?

Ryan was thrilled; he had nearly achieved half of his objective, and this hasty attack couldn't stop him.

Thunder!

Ryan opened his hand and caught the lightning bolt falling from the sky. The lightning lingered, making it seem more like a giant lightning blade being held in his hand, before facing the flaming greatsword.

boom! ! !

Two energies, two powers, clashed violently, unleashing shockwaves that then vanished simultaneously.

Closer, closer.

Ryan pierced through these energy particles and saw the giant, as well as the Herrscher in its chest and abdomen. The raging flames were not enough to repair the cracks, but why bother to repair them!

"This is just energy shaping, why be bound by any particular form?"

Yan Lu raised his hands with a cold smile, then clapped his hands together.

Burn it all.

The giant was rapidly melting away, transforming into one colossal arm after another, and in an instant, it became an octopus. Those fiery whips lashed back and forth, almost filling every inch of the gaps.

Just a little bit more, just a little bit more.

Ryan did not retreat. He was no match for Yanlu in a war of attrition, and there was a 90% chance that he would be worn down and killed before Alicia and the others arrived.

"But what I want is to break this annoying thing that combines offense and defense, and also—"

He suddenly stopped in mid-air and clapped his hands as well.

"You want to pilot a Gundam? You think I can't?"

The sea arched upwards, and just as he self-destructed, he distributed his authority.

Up!

A giant hand made entirely of seawater rose up, blocking the lashes of the fiery whips and covering Ryan's advance.

In that instant, the whips seemed to come alive. Most of them continued to strike, while some circled around and attacked Ryan behind them. But then something strange happened.

As the whip approached, before it could ignite him, the energy seemed to be pulled by something, losing its aim and even helping Ryan defend. This ability seemed somewhat familiar to Yan Lu.

this is not......

Before she could adjust, Ryan was already within a hundred meters, his gray eyes locking onto her firmly.

"You don't know yet, I can level up right before battle!!"

Chapter 317 The fuel is exhausted, the fire is extinguished!! 4K

Exploration is not about devouring; it's impossible to kill the opponent to gain energy and thus break through in battle.

However, after understanding the 'rule of control' of the thousand Herrschers, Ryan had another trump card. Years of training had made him more familiar with the authority, and even though he had just acquired it, he could still use it with some difficulty.

It's definitely not suitable for direct combat, but when used at such a critical moment, it has an unexpected effect.

Winning by combining orthodox and unorthodox methods, catching the law firm before they can adjust their plans—

Fearless advance!

The distance was too close; for Ryan, it was only a moment. As the giant hand vanished, he managed to squeeze through the chaotic dance of fire dragons.

Ahead lay the Herrscher, his iron fist clenched, as he swung it to meet the roaring wave of fire.

Inch-force. Heaven-opening!

The flames surged back, and Ryan, still engulfed in flames, rushed forward, whipping his leg to deflect the greatsword. He then spun in the air, kicking out with both legs simultaneously, like a rabbit kicking an eagle, slamming into Yanlu's full chest.

Whoosh—Boom—

With full force, a ring of air first bloomed in the sky, and then a cloud of dust exploded on the distant land. The fishing port south of Donggong City was instantly filled with dust, which was then swept away in the next moment.

Charge forward, charge forward, give her no chance to breathe!

Ryan entered a state of self-forgetfulness, focusing only on moving forward and unleashing all his energy, cutting through the fire waves with hurricanes, smashing the flaming spear with lightning, and condensing his killing intent into a physical form.

He shattered it, closed in, and faced the incoming greatsword head-on.

Everything is dormant. Time slows down.

"You only manage a few moves with the sword, so you're definitely a mage with immense destructive power. This body doesn't have much combat skill either."

Everything slowed down in Ryan's eyes. He was glad that he had saved Himiko. Otherwise, that elite warrior with this level of Honkai energy would have been even more difficult to deal with. No wonder the Flame Ruler had to spend so much energy to create a giant. It turned out that he only knew how to overwhelm people with brute force.

Okay, so you're not good at fighting, huh? I'm very good at it.

He dodged the sword blade to the side, and the pillar of fire he touched was like a laser cannon, instantly obliterating the fishing village below the mountain and creating a straight pillar of fire on the sea.

It was incredibly destructive, but ultimately missed. Yan Lu saw that the other person had grabbed her forearm. Lacking experience in this area, she didn't know what the other person wanted to do until the next moment when the answer was revealed.

Tieshan leans against.

The violent force slammed into his chest, causing the remaining protective flames to collapse. Because he held down his forearm, he was not sent flying and was forcibly pulled back.

"The energy is indeed very strong; it's difficult to break through even an individual's defenses."

Ryan frowned, feeling the temperature soaring. The Herrscher in his hand was turning into a blazing fireball, just like before, preparing to use its destructive power to force him back. Once he was back, it would be incredibly difficult to rush forward again.

One punch isn't enough, I'll throw two. Today I'm going to beat you to death!

He was also ruthless. Even as the power seeped in and scorched his entire body, Ryan felt as if he were embracing the sun, and the closer he got, the greater the destructive power.

Holding hands.

The palm heel propelled the Herrscher into the air. Just as he took off, a pair of elbows pressed against his chest, arcs of electricity coursing through his body, turning him into a spring poised to unleash its power. In the next instant, he released all of this energy.

Elbow thrust!

call out--

Accompanied by several layers of pale gas rings, an electromagnetic cannonball flew out at several times the speed of sound, covering several kilometers in the blink of an eye.

Mountains were smashed, border posts were shattered, jungles were set ablaze, and the Herrscher flew straight into the occupied zone, his legs sinking into the ground, leaving two vertical lines on the ground.

Straight and long, everything along the vertical line was burned to ashes, and embers remained on the earth, looking like two trails.

The Herrscher patted his chest, letting his frozen breath flow smoothly. Looking up again, another projectile was already hurtling towards him, baring its fangs and claws, like—

Heavy storm!

This was the immediate impression Ryan gave the Herrscher: she couldn't retaliate with her raised greatsword; she could only hold it horizontally above her head, and then the terrifying force traveled from her forearm to her feet.

Thousand pounds fell!

Boom! !

The scalding flames were slammed into the soil, giving it a glass-like texture. She exhaled a breath of stale air and clenched her right hand tightly.

Burn it.

A pillar of fire rose from the ground, but the billowing black sand formed a shield, which then transformed into a giant black iron fist as Ryan swung his fist.

The iron elements in the soil were drawn out by the power of thunder. Ryan was like wearing a giant exoskeleton. These iron sands vibrated continuously and slammed directly into the wall of fire.

It melts and neutralizes continuously until it penetrates.

Yan Lu had just climbed out of the pit when he saw the giant iron sand fist slamming towards him. He had no choice but to wield his sword with both hands and slash downwards fiercely, the accumulated energy resembling a fiery crescent moon.

It was still a simple move, but this time the red moon traversed the entire jungle, shattering the mountain peaks several kilometers away. The giant black fist was cut in two, exploding into a thick black mist that spread all around.

Because it was made of steel, it wasn't as easily melted as water vapor. Yanlu's eyes darted around, trying to catch a glimpse of Ryan, until two seconds later, the thick black fog suddenly disappeared.

They reassembled into twelve giant black iron spears, thrusting in from all directions.

clang!clang!clang!

Yan Lu finally moved, swinging his greatsword to deflect the black iron spears one after another, then retreating continuously, watching the spears being cut, melted, reassembled, and repeatedly thrust at him.

The town receded into the distance, and traces of Honkai Beasts could even be seen. Unfortunately, these monsters didn't even have the right to watch the battle; they were either crushed in an instant by the iron sand or melted by the passing flames.

Where? Where?

After retreating for several kilometers, her short-heeled leather boots finally made solid contact with the ground. Ignoring the seventh thrust of the black gun, she suddenly turned around.

Over there!

Yan Lu's entire body swelled several times its original size, and the surging flames transformed into a five- or six-meter-tall fire giant. The black spears that touched the surface turned into wisps of smoke and dissipated without even a hair being harmed. The greatsword he wielded was like a flaming scythe, releasing waves of fire that scorched the sky and burned the earth.
