Yuanxiang sighed helplessly and headed towards Shenzhou. Of course, before leaving, he didn't forget to grab something to eat from Mei's dormitory kitchen.
According to the female student, shortly after I left, the Undying Blade seemed to have completed its mission and left St. Freya, and Wendy also successfully enrolled there. It seems that the Herrscher problem has been resolved. I just don't know if the Undying Blade will join this mission. After all, it is a Judgment-level Honkai Beast. If it causes trouble, it will be a deadly threat. For an organization that protects the world and fights for a better future, it shouldn't just send the Far East Branch as its only force.
As Yuanxiang flew along, he thought to himself. Although the female student didn't know the location of the Judgment-class Honkai Beast, and Theresa's access didn't include any relevant information, the Hyperion, being so large, couldn't possibly conceal its movements entirely if it were operating within Shenzhou. Therefore, once it arrived in a Shenzhou city, he only needed to pay a little attention to gossip and rumors to get the results. If there was no relevant information, he could simply fly around the coastline. This wasn't a difficult task for him; in a sense, he could fly even better than the Herrscher of the Wind.
In this way, Gengo quickly located the Hyperion. Although they had tried their best to conceal themselves, it was still too useless for Gengo, who was practically cheating. As the boy approached the Hyperion, he heard the alarm sounding inside the warship. Five close-in weapon systems immediately activated and began to rapidly aim at him. Gengo, however, calmly stopped flying, pointed to his face at the warship, and then, three seconds later, with the sound of machinery turning, all the weapons were retracted, and the hatch opened slightly. Gengo took the opportunity to slip inside.
"Yes... Mr. Gengo, right?"
The person in charge of liaising with Gensou was a very cute girl, the kind who looked soft and sweet, the kind of girl who would blush and blush if you touched her. Of course, Gensou only thought about it; he wouldn't actually touch her. He nodded and then pointed to the passage on the left, saying:
"Can I just go there directly?"
"Yes, the headmaster has already given instructions. This passage will be open to you without any obstacles."
"Okay, thank you. Is there anything else?"
"have....."
At this moment, the Valkyrie and her companion exchanged glances, then nudged each other, looking rather embarrassed. Ultimately, the soft-spoken Valkyrie was pushed in front of Gensou, her eyes sparkling with curiosity as she softly asked:
"Excuse me, are you really a gentleman?"
"...I think this one is genuine."
Yuanxiang hadn't expected such a question, and was momentarily stunned before chuckling and saying:
"I understand what you're wondering about, why men can use the power of Honkai energy and even fly through the air, but I don't use Honkai energy. It's a bit complicated to explain, so just think of me as someone who has been a human experiment. I'm in a hurry, so I'll be going now."
"Okay, please take care."
The Valkyrie understood the urgency of the situation and didn't linger. After satisfying her curiosity, she let Genji leave and headed towards the Hyperion's bridge. On the bridge, Genji only saw Theresa and Wendy. As the commander, theresa couldn't leave her post without permission, and according to Wendy's own explanation, she had just shed her Herrscher identity and couldn't approach places with excessively high concentrations of Honkai energy.
However, this is also a double-edged sword. With this lingering special property, Wendy can temporarily act as a Honkai energy sensor to detect any accidents that might be missed.
Seeing Genji appear, Wendy was naturally very happy and went over to give the boy a light hug. However, seeing the somewhat serious expressions on her and Theresa's brows, Genji greeted them briefly and then pressed them to tell him what had happened. Theresa casually picked up a data sheet and an action report, handed them to Genji, and said softly:
"Just now, a powerful Honkai energy reaction erupted from the seabed. The impact even caused the Leonov anti-gravity engine to malfunction for a moment."
Leonov Anti-Gravity Engines – The Leonov airship is powered by anti-gravity engines. It has two engines at the front and two at the rear of the ship. The presence of anti-gravity engines allows the airship to take off and land vertically and hover in mid-air.
To power its engines, the Hyperion has six nuclear fusion reactors. During normal flight, only four of them are operational, with the other two usually kept as backups. Therefore, when the anomaly first occurred, the backup reactors were activated in time, allowing the warship to escape danger.
"Are all Judgment-level Honkai Beasts this outrageous? They can actually affect this place."
According to the operation report, the Far East Branch was sent to subdue the still-unawakened Judgment-class Honkai Beast Chi You. Schicksal had a targeted Honkai Beast monitoring system that detected the Honkai Beast's unusual activity and promptly reported it to headquarters. After comprehensive consideration and discussion, it was decided that the Far East Branch would suppress it first, and the Far East Branch was allowed to withdraw voluntarily in the event of a sudden change in the situation or insufficient combat power.
And now, this Honkai Beast hasn't even awakened yet; it's just moving according to its instincts, yet it's already causing the Hyperion, a warship developed specifically to fight the Honkai, to react so badly.
"The situation may not be as simple as it seems."
Theresa noticed that Genji didn't understand the data sheet, but she didn't say anything. After all, he was an unofficial staff member, so it was normal for him not to know these things. So she took the data sheet, pointed to the data on it, and explained to Genji:
"According to the maintenance team's post-incident investigation, the cause of the engine failure was not a problem with the nuclear fusion reactor, but rather a brief shutdown of the associated unit. The cause of the shutdown has not yet been determined, but it is currently believed that the problem was with the pipeline responsible for transmitting Honkai energy."
"And... I don't know why, but when that shock came in, I felt really uncomfortable..."
At this moment, Wendy took over the conversation, clutching her heart, and whispered:
"How should I put it? Although it was very quick, only for a moment, I felt like my body was about to lose control."
"I'm a little better off, but that feeling of being suppressed is really unpleasant."
Theresa continued speaking, but after she finished, she frowned slightly and murmured:
"And, for some reason, that feeling is so familiar, as if I've felt something similar before, but I just can't remember it right now."
“Headmaster, you also participated in the Second Honkai Outbreak before, facing the terrifying Herrscher of the Void and her Judgment-class companion Honkai Beast. Perhaps that’s why it feels so familiar to you.”
Seeing Theresa frowning and deep in thought, Wendy couldn't help but offer some words of comfort. After all, the saying "the onlooker sees more of the game than the player" is very applicable. Now is a critical moment in dealing with the Judgment-class Honkai Beasts, and we can't let this delay the current action and judgment.
"Maybe..."
Although she said that, Theresa seemed to still be troubled by it, but she understood the reasoning behind it and put those worries aside for the time being. She looked at Genji and said:
“Yuanxiang, I won’t stand on ceremony with you now. Please go to Chiyou’s side and check on the situation of the First Action Team. If the battle situation there is not good, evacuate immediately and wait for headquarters’ response and support. As for the members of the First Action Team, just look at the bridge and you’ll see that many of your acquaintances are missing.”
Goodness, this is really...
Although Yuanxiang didn't mean anything by it, he just really wanted to complain about whether the Far East Branch was short of people, but then he thought about it and realized that the people he knew were already among the most capable in the Far East Branch.
"There's one more thing you should keep in mind."
At this moment, Theresa took out another report and handed it to Gensho, saying:
"The situation in China has been quite turbulent lately. You see, although it's not in the same region, there are signs of a small-scale Honkai outbreak in southern China, which has also involved fluctuations in the Sea of Quanta. Considering the current unusual activity of the Judgment-class Honkai Beasts, the Destiny Headquarters is worried that there might be some kind of resonance or connection between the two. Therefore, they have sent the Undying Blade to suppress the Honkai disturbances in southern China. When you are on your mission, you should also be a little careful about this kind of disturbance."
The Sea of Quanta?
To be honest, Yuanxiang has dealt with 'quantum' quite a bit during this period. First, there was Seele's imprisonment, and then there was the awakening of the Mother Goddess Tiamat. These are all related to 'quantum'. It's just that the names and situations are different because of the different worlds. In essence, they are still the same thing.
"I understand, I will be careful."
So Yuanxiang didn't say much. He put on the locator, miniature oxygen supply device, and communicator that Wendy handed him, and jumped directly off the Hyperion. For him, the diving equipment was not very necessary, since it would be covered up after the transformation. He brought the oxygen supply device for the other members of the action team.
'Cyclone'
Gengo retrieved the Lost Driver and sent the emerald green memory into it. As he transformed into Kamen Rider, he also enveloped himself in wind, partly to reduce the pressure in the water and partly to solve the oxygen problem.
At the same time, the Hyperion launched a signal flare that shot straight to the seabed, which would guide Yuanxiang to the location to enter Chiyou's body.
Honestly, if it weren't for the signal flare and the information I'd read on the Hyperion, if I'd encountered this Judgment-class Honkai Beast's shell while scuba diving, I would have thought I'd just bumped into a rock. The feel of it was completely devoid of the warmth and texture of a living organism. However, one thing was noteworthy: Chi You's shell was exceptionally clean. Not a single barnacle or other marine creature was attached to it. It seemed that even in its dormant state, the residual power it possessed was beyond the reach of ordinary creatures...
Wait, something's not right.
Genshou frowned and began to seriously sense the changes around him. Theresa's information was wrong. There was indeed a considerable amount of Honkai energy in this place, but it was definitely not just emitted by Chi You's body. Rather, it was the Honkai energy boiling like lava beneath the rock layers that caused the Destiny Monitoring Station to give a false alarm.
Thinking of this, Gengo hurriedly tried to contact the Hyperion to warn Theresa about the matter. However, to his dismay, after taking out the communicator, Gengo discovered that even this specially made communicator was rendered useless by the interference of the powerful Honkai energy. In a sense, once he reached a certain depth, he and the Hyperion were already out of contact.
Was that why the team didn't report the situation? Or did they simply not notice it at all?
Gensou's expression was somewhat grim. Although it seemed that the final boss was only Chi You, so such small details seemed less important, the current situation undoubtedly indicated that Chi You had a very comfortable recovery space. If he were in charge of the operation, Gensou would prefer to neutralize some of the Honkai energy before thinking about how to defeat Chi You.
Forget about that for now. After passing the message to Hyperion, I'll go down and see what's going on.
A wisp of wind roared across the sky from the source. Thanks to Wendy's not-yet-completely-disappeared Herrscher of Wind physique, it was believed that the child could understand the meaning from his 'Cyclone'. At the same time, he also had a bad feeling. In any case, the concentration of Honkai energy below was too high, so high that even Valkyries would likely experience some discomfort.
"Did they leave this behind?"
Gensou ran his fingers along the rock wall and found the entrance to the lower level. Just then, he found an engraving with a time and number recorded on it. He figured it must have been left by Himeko Murata, since she was the teacher in charge and such things should be done by her.
However, since Himeko Murata was mentioned, Gengo couldn't help but worry about this older single woman. In their previous interactions, he had noticed that this veteran Valkyrie wasn't very adaptable to Honkai energy. In fact, any one of the team members she was leading was stronger than her. And now, with such a high concentration of Honkai energy down there, he wondered if that guy would be turned into a suicide soldier because of it.
Thinking this, Genji sped up, rushing down to the lower level. To his surprise, after swimming for a while, a faint glow suddenly shone on the surface of the water. This made Genji a little nervous. To be honest, he didn't really like the seabed. When watching nature documentaries, he always skipped the marine life segments; the shapes of those mollusks or strange fish really gave him the creeps. And anything glowing from the seabed didn't seem like a friendly creature at all...
As Gengo pondered this, he cautiously peeked out and realized he had figured it out. It was incredible, but there were actually quite a few places to move around in here, like an underwater cave. There were also some man-made objects inside, such as a glowing candlestick. It seemed to be using Honkai energy to emit light, but what exactly was the principle behind it? Gengo thought about it for a while and could only say, "Incredible Honkai energy."
After landing, Gensou squatted down and gently stroked the ground. Although it was not very noticeable, the texture of his fingertips indicated that there were slight bumps and depressions, indicating that Himeko Murata and the others had landed on land from here and begun their exploration.
"Hey!"
'Hey~~~~'
'Hey~~~~~~'
Thinking of this, Gengo stood up and shouted into the empty, vast space, hoping to get a response from Himeko Murata and the others. However, he didn't see any living people, but the Honkai Beasts corrupted by Honkai surged out all at once, swarming towards Gengo. Gengo had never seen these Honkai Beasts before. They looked like octopuses that had been demonized, covered in red and white Honkai Beast armor. Every tentacle writhed with ominous purplish-red Honkai energy as it waved. They looked light and airy, but they possessed enough power to destroy thick stone pillars.
"Having evolved to this state, I wonder just how much power you've gained!"
Gensou muttered something, clenched his fist, and threw a punch at the Honkai Beast horde. The howling wind, mixed with terrifying wind blades, easily destroyed the Honkai Beasts charging at the forefront, like a meat grinder. As their kin died, these creatures reacted. Each octopus-like Honkai Beast raised its four claws high and then plunged them into the ground. With their upward movement, a wall made of red Honkai energy blocked the path of the sweeping wind.
To be fair, the wall's strength was only so-so; the gale easily breached one side. However, these octopus-like Honkai Beasts, taking advantage of the abundant Honkai energy in the current environment and their astonishing numbers, started by building the wall in groups and then layered it on top of each other, creating a wall so solid that even the gale couldn't break it, and the wind blades only scratched the surface.
But there's nothing to panic about; it was just a normal punch from me.
Gensou stretched his body and charged forward like a tiger hunting its prey, annihilating the Honkai Beast horde with overwhelming force. But in that instant, the octopus-like Honkai Beast suddenly raised all its tentacles horizontally. At the same time, each tentacle gave birth to a square Honkai energy block, seemingly based on the same principle as the wall. Then, as the octopus-like Honkai Beast rotated, those Honkai energy blocks also became sharp weapons, spinning along with it. One did this, two did this, and when hundreds or thousands of Honkai Beasts began to rotate at the same time, it was an astonishing disaster. Even the Honkai energy in this space was stirred up, like a waterspout, threatening to engulf Gensou.
But when it comes to 'storms', none of you can compare to me!
Gensou snorted coldly, showing no sign of dodging. He used his hand as a sword, instantly slashing out countless trajectories. The violent airflow forcefully interrupted the forming Honkai tornado. The terrifying wind force became Gensou's 'food' in that instant, allowing him to create an even more terrifying storm. The Honkai beasts immediately reaped what they sowed, turning into pure flesh and blood in the emerald green wind. Even those who managed to escape were merely clinging to life. They lay on the ground, their tentacles still wriggling, trying to float in the air as before, but this struggle only hastened the end of their lives.
However, these Honkai Beasts were truly ferocious. Even in this predicament, they did not give up their attack on Genshin Impact. They slightly raised their heads and used their remaining strength to condense a purplish-red rectangular Honkai energy, which they launched like arrows toward Genshin Impact.
Most of these attacks dissipated in mid-air, and the remaining Honkai Beasts also showed no signs of life. Genji breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the space that was littered with corpses, and couldn't help but purse his lips. Could Himeko Murata's team really withstand such an intense Honkai Beast attack? Could they really complete the transfer safely under such attacks?
360 Herald of Restraint
Although the question had just surfaced, Genji already had a vague answer in his mind, but he immediately suppressed that thought and began to search for any clues he could use to find the whereabouts of Himeko Murata's team. Although it wasn't a good way to put it, this time he had to find them alive or dead, no matter what.
Yuanxiang moved quietly, exploring the massive area. To his surprise, he soon found another group of buildings that were clearly man-made. No, to be precise, it was a huge pass. There was no other way to proceed without passing through here.
However, this pass is now open. Judging from the deep fist mark on the door, Genji has reason to believe that it was opened by Fu Hua with a single punch. Moreover, judging from the appearance of the fist mark, it should have appeared recently. Furthermore, judging from the control of the force of this attack, Fu Hua should have been prepared and launched this attack in a calm and unhurried manner. Genji, who had once examined 'Hua's' memories, could even simulate Fu Hua's posture when she exerted force through this fist mark.
This is good news. It means that when Himeko Murata's team first arrived here, they hadn't encountered a horde of Honkai beasts like the one they just saw. Perhaps they were lucky and always managed to escape before the Honkai beast hordes appeared.
Thinking of this, Gengo felt a surge of joy. He didn't want to piece together a torn corpse like he had done after being attacked by monsters before, especially since this time the corpse was someone he had a connection with.
As Yuanxiang walked into the building that resembled a pass, he switched forms. To be honest, as soon as he entered, the boy discovered that there seemed to be some kind of magical formation or power inside. Yuanxiang had studied this kind of thing with great interest before, but he had to admit that it was really profound. After studying it for a long time, when he opened the book again, he still felt confused. Although he could explain some of the intricacies if he had to.
However, that little trick is definitely not enough for Yuanxiang to break into this formation. It is probably a formation left by the ancestors of Shenzhou. The main reason why Yuanxiang dared to go in is because there are still traces of the actions of the Himeko team of the Wuliangta here. After all, Fu Hua is also considered an ancestor of Shenzhou. She has now obtained her past memories and is definitely much stronger than him in breaking the formation.
Of course, Gensou has also prepared his 'joker·xtreme' form. If he really gets trapped here, there's nothing more to say. He'll just flip the table and tear down the walls to see if he's just being stubborn or if this formation is really that powerful.
Following the path paved by his predecessor, Yuanxiang carefully avoided touching or stepping on anything unnecessary, cautiously probing each step until he finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
However, at the exit of this formation, there was another group of Honkai Beasts blocking the door. This time, however, they were not octopuses, but giant crabs. Without a doubt, judging from their shells, they had also become members of the Honkai Beasts. Just looking at them, they seemed quite sturdy.
At the same time, the appearance of Gensou instantly attracted the attention of the crab-like Honkai Beasts. The dense sounds of their movements were like those of monsters feeding. With their astonishing numbers, they even caused the nearby stone bricks to tremble and collapse on their own.
However, the attacks of these crab-like Honkai Beasts were definitely not that simple. The Honkai Beast at the front moved away the giant claw that was blocking its way. Only then did Genji notice that where the crab's mouthparts should have been, there was now an eye. Furthermore, the crab's pincers had also mutated. One of the front pincers had developed into an exceptionally large and thick one, with sturdy armor like Frankenstein's monster. The other pincer was much thinner. In comparison, one was a muscular fat man, and the other was a frail little boy.
However, there are not many opportunities for Gengo to analyze the composition of this crab-like Honkai Beast now. It emits a wide-range wave from its giant eyeball, which can just cover Gengo in the center of the attack. However, the damage of this eye wave itself is extremely low, especially since it is targeting a Kamen Rider like Gengo. But this eye wave is accompanied by amazing vibration and penetrating power. Gengo can feel that if he is hit several times in a short period of time, his five senses may become disordered.
As the eye-wave impacted, the other crab-like Honkai Beasts also made new moves. They spun their bodies and charged towards the Source Village in a rolling motion, like giant trucks specifically designed to transport people through time, displaying tremendous momentum.
With a low shout, Gensou unleashed a powerful aura that forcefully shattered the crab-like Honkai Beast's gaze. At the same time, he slammed his fist into the oncoming 'wheel,' instantly piercing through armor with tremendous force, like striking a cow across a mountain. This single punch shattered five Honkai Beasts in succession, but some still managed to slip through and attack Gensou. Even after being dodged, the 'wheel' would pause slightly before launching a second impact. According to Gensou's calculations, this type of Honkai Beast could withstand such 'wheel' impacts up to three times.
However, these crab-like Honkai Beasts have a new trick up their sleeve. After charging up, they use a rising dragon punch to shoot into the sky, shrink into a ball in mid-air, and then crash down. In an instant, an astonishing number of enemies rained down on Gengo's head. Although some of them will inevitably collide with each other, there is no doubt that Gengo will also suffer a saturation attack.
"This is really troublesome."
Gengo murmured, then placed his hand on the driver. In the next second, extremely cold mist rose up. Under the boy's control, the mist transformed into sharp blades, slashing a cross across the sky. Then, the cross slash remaining in the air unleashed astonishing power waves in all directions, corroding all the surrounding enemies. The pure destructive power turned these heavily armored crab-like Honkai Beasts into nothingness in an instant.
These guys aren't usually this strong.
Gengo silently switched his form back to a single memory module, while silently chanting in his mind.
