What?! You want me to be the Herrscher of the End?!

"Don't worry, who can bully me? I'm just going to pick up a few people. I'll be back soon."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo smiled in response and gave her a reassuring look before entering the portal.

.......................................

Meanwhile, Coral Island.

Under the leadership of Durandal and Rita, a full 50% of the Honkai Beasts in the northern area of ​​Coral Island have been eliminated.

Furthermore, the Honkai outbreak had already stopped, leaving only the last 50% of Honkai Beasts scattered across the island.

The group was able to catch their breath, and looking at the corpses of their companions around them, a look of weariness appeared on the faces of the Valkyries.

Even the Snow Lotus Squad, led by Anna, who suffered no casualties, could not hide their sorrow after witnessing such a brutal battle.

Just as everyone was immersed in this sorrow, suddenly, the Honkai energy, which had been gradually calming down, suddenly surged!

The instruments that the Undying Blade squad had previously used to detect Honkai energy also emitted bursts of red light and emitted a piercing alarm sound at this moment.

The surrounding Honkai Beasts were also affected and went berserk.

But the rise of Honkai energy and the rampage of Honkai Beasts are minor troubles.

But after hearing the piercing alarm, the situation changed, and everyone on the battlefield felt a sense of despair.

Because this alarm only sounds when a Herrscher descends!

Durandal and Rita, in particular, were the first to react and the first to feel incredulous.

Could the Fifth Honkai Impact 3rd have arrived ahead of schedule? The Honkai energy released this time shouldn't be enough to give birth to a Herrscher.

However, reality is reality. After the initial shock, Durandal was already considering whether to call for reinforcements from headquarters.

"A...a Herrscher? Anna, did I hear that right? A Herrscher is about to be born here?!"

"Yeah, what if a Herrscher appears..."

Upon hearing that a Herrscher had appeared, the three members of the Snow Lotus Squad instantly lost their composure and immediately hugged each other, as if they were saying, "We don't ask to be born on the same day, month, and year, but we ask to die on the same day, month, and year."

Anna rubbed her forehead in relief, realizing that the situation was partly her fault.

But more than anything, Anna felt a sense of reassurance.

After all, this Herrscher is one of our own!

"Don't be afraid, everyone. This Herrscher is me and..."

"Wow! It seems everyone is very welcoming of my arrival, making such a big fuss. What can I say?"

However, just as Anna was about to explain to the three terrified people, Bai Mo's figure suddenly appeared in the sky not far from them.

Holding a folding fan, Bai Mo playfully used it to cover half of her face.

It looks disgusting at first glance.

Quietly, Bai Mo exchanged a glance with Anna when no one was paying attention, which was considered a secret signal.

After all, in a sense, this was also the first time the two had met.

"Rita."

"Understood, Lady Durandal."

The distress signal had been sent out. The two exchanged a knowing glance and then aimed their weapons at Bai Mo in the sky.

What they need to do now is to stall Bai Mo as much as possible and wait for support from headquarters. To this end, Otto has also sent Fu Hua.

With such a formidable lineup, killing a Herrscher would be more than a piece of cake.

"All personnel on high alert, prepare for battle!"

With Durandal's command.

In an instant, all the Valkyries on the battlefield, despite their fear, raised their weapons. This included Amy and her two companions, who were unaware of the situation.

"..."

Bai Mo realized something was wrong. It was one thing for others to fight back, but why did the Snow Lotus Squad have to interfere?

This doesn't seem like he's faking it; he's genuinely getting stabbed!

However, after carefully observing the expressions on Amy and the other two's faces, Bai Mo instantly understood that Anna hadn't explained to them that the person who came to pick them up was a Herrscher.

Headache....

However, this is fine too. Rather than forcibly taking the Snow Lotus Squad away and thus branding them as traitors, Bai Mo prefers to put on a little show to make the drama more exciting.

At this point, Bai Mo's aura changed, becoming slightly inflated.

"How dare a mere defeated opponent act so presumptuously here?"

"...It's you?!"

Durandal's expression changed.

From the moment Bai Mo appeared, even though she didn't recognize his face, Durandal still felt a sense of familiarity. Now, Bai Mo's words confirmed her suspicions.

That is, the Herrscher in front of me is the same one I fought against at Schicksal Airport.

At the same time, Rita also realized something, and her expression became even more serious.

"What? You want revenge?"

"You should know that you are not strong enough to completely defeat me."

Seeing Yulandel's angry expression, Bai Mo put on a mocking look.

"Stop your arrogant tone. How will you know if you don't try?"

"I know you can't beat me."

As he spoke, Bai Mo nodded seriously, which really infuriated Youlandail.

"You... there's no point in saying more! Let me witness your power once more, Herrscher!"

As she spoke, Durandal was about to fly up with the Black Abyss White Flower, but Bai Mo's next action made her stop abruptly.

Suddenly, Bai Mo flashed across the sky and instantly arrived at the Snow Lotus Squad's location, a move that truly terrified the Snow Lotus Squad.

"What do you want to do!"

Fearing that Bai Mo would harm them, Youlandail dared not step forward for a moment and could only stand there and glare angrily at Bai Mo.

"What do I want to do? Are all humans as stupid as you? Or are you really unable to figure out what I want to do?"

As he spoke, Bai Mo took advantage of Anna's inattention and suddenly grabbed her by the neck. Behind her, a gate of imaginary numbers appeared, and little by little, Bai Mo was pushing Anna into it.

(Of course, Bai Mo didn't use any force.)

Chapter 268 The War Begins

"Little Anna!"

"Anna!"

"Anna!"

Seeing this, Amy and the other two couldn't care less and immediately tried to grab Bai Mo.

In response, Bai Mo simply created a Honkai energy barrier, isolating the three of them outside and preventing them from advancing any further.

“Anna, just play along a little. Pretend you don’t know me and put on a show. Let’s put on a performance for Destiny.”

Using the power of the Herald of Knowledge, Bai Mo is secretly sending a message to Anna.

"I understand, Senior."

Realizing that Bai Mo was thinking of them, Anna instantly channeled her inner actor, feigning great pain as she bumped into him, struggling violently with a look of terror in her eyes.

Now, Amy and the other two were even more anxious. If it weren't for the barrier blocking them, they probably would have already come up and fought Bai Mo to the death.

"I presume you Schicksal already know that the fifth Honkai is about to erupt on Coral Island? But aren't you curious about who the Herrscher will be this time?"

Ignoring the three's subtle actions, Bai Mo looked at Durandal and Rita and said teasingly.

He was incredibly arrogant, as if he were talking about something trivial.

"What exactly do you want to say?"

Durandal wasn't surprised that Bai Mo knew about the impending collapse of Coral Island. What was more intriguing was what Bai Mo said next.

Is this something that will happen in the future? Does the World Serpent already have this ability?

Bai Mo's words involuntarily reminded Durandal of the "Pioneer," Su, who observed the world.

Considering that there are other [Pioneers] within the World Serpent, Durandal was already half-believing what Bai Mo had said.

"Anna Schariac".

"What! You mean..."

Upon hearing that familiar name, Durandal glanced at Anna, who was struggling, with a complicated expression.

"Wasn't I clear enough, Anna Schariac? She is the one who will be chosen to become the Fifth Herrscher."

Upon hearing Bai Mo's words, everyone present wore an expression of disbelief, as they found no evidence whatsoever in his statement.

"You bastard! How could Anna have been chosen as a Herrscher?!"

"You damned Herrscher! If you've got the guts, put Anna down!"

"Do you think we'd believe what a Herrscher says?"

The three members of the Snow Lotus Squad all showed expressions of anger. If looks could kill, Bai Mo would probably be dead a million times over by now.

Bai Mo shook his head regretfully, "Sigh... these days, do people not even believe the truth?"

"In short, our World Serpent needs Miss Anna's cooperation. Coincidentally, this also solves a major hidden danger for your Destiny. Logically, you should be thanking me instead!"

"Shameless!"

The power of decay gathered at the tip of the spear, indicating that Durandal was on the verge of exploding.

"Thank you for the compliment!"

"In return, I will provide you with the following information."
