At this moment, the Titan construct, having recovered, began to retaliate once again. Even without its left arm, the Titan construct continued to fight back frantically with its own body. Then, the armor on the Titan construct opened, and crimson energy rays shot out from the Titan construct, instantly piercing through Storm's crimson armor.
"Whoa! What's with this laser?!"
Kiana screamed in terror the moment the crimson laser pierced through the side of the cockpit. Bronya replied decisively, "That's enough. Our probing ends here! Get out of the mechs and fight with your own strength now!"
Bronya decisively gave up on continuing to fight using the mech. The appearance of this force field was something they hadn't anticipated, and now they could only fight on their own, detached from the mech.
Meanwhile, inside the temporary base, Cang Wenxuan watched the real-time battlefield situation and asked, "Dr. Einstein, have you analyzed the relevant data for this force field?"
Einstein shook his head. "No, the data is still too little. The current manifestation confirms that this force field can absorb all forms of attack, physical and energy, and convert them into its own energy."
"There is an upper limit to the absorption capacity of the force field. Just now, Mei-san's attack pierced through the opponent's force field and was able to temporarily disable it."
"This is a characteristic of the force field. In addition, the commander just wasted so many shells, we don't know how much energy we replenished for the enemy."
Cang Wenxuan cursed under his breath. He thought it was a force field in the form of an energy shield that needed to be broken by sheer numbers, and that a prolonged attack would deplete the opponent's force field energy. But it turned out to be this kind of thing!
"They can only rely on themselves now. We don't have any weapons that can match the energy of Mei's attack just now."
Cang Wenxuan was quite helpless. The energy reading of Mei's attack had been recorded. According to the comparison, even the proton cannons they currently had could not reach that energy level.
Therefore, only Herrschers can continue fighting on this battlefield now.
Cang Wenxuan was very upset... He originally thought that the Shenzhou army could play a role, but now it seems that the Shenzhou artillery bombardment not only did not help, but actually made things worse!
On the battlefield, after the mechs became useless, the three quickly disengaged from them, and the mechs they had constructed also quickly disappeared. Bronya was somewhat disappointed; she had thought she could still play mech battles this time, but it turned out to be useless. Sure enough, she still lacked a technology that could serve as a decisive weapon.
Although the Prism Cannon has similar power, its charging time is too long and its energy consumption is too high, so even Little Rabbit cannot fire it continuously.
Ah, I'm so envious of Paradox Engine's Sigma array! When will I be able to get that over here?!
Chapter 145: General Thunder: "Waaah! I can't do anything!"
After abandoning the massive mech constructed by Bronya for combat, the Titan construct assumed that the enemy in front of it had disappeared. However, just as it was about to turn around and leave, lightning suddenly struck down from the sky again.
This time, the lightning was even more dazzling and powerful. Before the Titan construct could react, the tear-like light struck down instantly!
"Lightning... Slash!"
As Mei chanted, the lightning struck down once more! This time, the terrifying lightning not only shattered the construct's defensive force field, but also severed his right arm along with it!
The massive right arm crashed to the ground, causing the earth to tremble. At that moment, Bronya and Rabbit floated in mid-air. Rabbit's hands quickly transformed into the most powerful weapon at present: the Charged Light Prism Cannon.
At the same time, flames burned on Himeko's greatsword, and Kiana stood beside her, the tail of her cloak fluttering in the air like burning embers.
"Himeko-sensei, let's team up this time!"
"Of course, this combined attack will take care of this guy in one go!"
The two leaped into the air together, and at that moment, Bronya's rapidly charged Prism Cannon suddenly fired! The pale white beam instantly pierced through the two cores in the chest of the construct in front of her, and the next second, Himeko's greatsword burst into an even larger flame.
"Flames...burn them all!"
With Himeko's roar, a raging inferno, like divine retribution, slammed fiercely into the construct in front of her. Kiana followed closely behind, her Flame Greatsword slashing down suddenly, tearing through space and time.
"Trial of Divine Fire! Slay!"
Bronya: ?
Suddenly, the surging flames shattered the space, destroying the upper body of the construct, while the remains were completely incinerated by the flames.
The remaining lower half of the Titan construct, having lost its upper body, lost control and collapsed to the ground. The next moment, a terrifying explosion ripped across the desolate land. Bronya's right hand shot out a blue ribbon that bound the three of them around the waist and pulled them under the protection of Little Bunny's shield.
The explosion of the construct triggered a chain reaction in the surrounding Honkai energy, causing an even more terrifying explosion to erupt instantly in the area, and a crimson mushroom cloud suddenly rose into the sky.
After everything calmed down, Bronya pressed her headset. "Mission accomplished. Target eliminated. How was the signal interception?"
Cang Wenxuan's voice was somewhat gloomy, "Signal interception complete. We have successfully intercepted the last signal transmitted by the other party and have stored it in an empty signal box."
"Commander Bronya, next time you have such a powerful move, remember to let us know in advance. We can save more ammunition and energy consumption."
Hearing Cang Wenxuan's complaints, Bronya felt a little embarrassed. She could only say that it was fortunate that it was just the consumption of shells and energy, without any loss of personnel, otherwise she would have had a hard time explaining herself.
"Understood. I will write a self-criticism and submit it to you when I get back, Commander."
"Forehead....."
Now it was Cang Wenxuan's turn to be embarrassed. Bronya's rank was higher than his. How could he ask someone with a higher rank and who was his superior to him to write him a letter of self-criticism?
Holy crap! This is going to kill him!
"This... well..."
"It's alright, it's what I should do. Although my weaponry is better than yours, I was the squad leader in this operation, and my plan did have some flaws. I should be thankful that it was just a matter of shells and energy consumption. If there had been any casualties, I would have had a hard time explaining myself."
"That concludes the communication. After we've inspected the battlefield, we'll return."
After the call ended, Bronya sighed and looked at Kiana, saying, "Kiana, what you just shouted...where did you get that information from?"
"Huh? Is it... the Trial of Divine Fire?"
Kiana seemed a little embarrassed. Bronya nodded and asked with a very serious expression. Kiana said somewhat shyly, "It's... I learned about it from a game called... Honkai Impact 3rd. I thought that ultimate move was pretty cool and similar to me, so I... shouted it out subconsciously."
Bronya was speechless, unsure of what to say. Post-Honkai Odyssey... This world actually has a Post-Honkai Odyssey?
"What company developed the game?"
"If I remember correctly, it was developed by a company called... miHoYo, and I heard it was a game company that was acquired by Bronya, but it doesn't exist anymore!"
Kiana chuckled; she wasn't that bothered by the matter anymore.
At this moment, Mei walked over and said, "The inspection is complete. There are no remaining signs of life, nor any active construct parts. So... is it over? The apocalypse?"
Bronya shook her head. "In the post-apocalyptic world, what always makes people feel desperate is the environment. Even if all our enemies have been eliminated, the post-apocalyptic environment is difficult to eliminate in a short time. It requires a lot of time and manpower to repair it little by little."
"Therefore, according to our covenant, Shenzhou will help you slowly purify the environment here again. At the same time, you survivors also have the right to choose. You can apply, and after passing the inspection, you can go to our world to live."
"Of course, you Valkyries and Herrschers might need to be thoroughly checked, since we don't want to bring Honkai into our world."
Himeko nodded. She understood. In a world without Honkai, what would happen if the Herrschers and Valkyries living in this world went there? No one could say for sure.
"Ah...a world without collapse, I envy such a world. In the past, these things only existed in novels. I never thought I could actually see one today."
Kiana was also quite moved. She never imagined that a world that had not collapsed could actually appear before her, and that she could even go to that world herself to see it.
Bronya smiled and said, "Don't worry, we've set up a special network system. From here, you can also connect to our world's network through the base's internal network. You can use this to explore our world."
"Now, let's go back. I still have to write a self-criticism when I get back!"
"Okay! Mei, will you cook me something to eat when we get back?"
Mei fell silent, her expression slightly flustered. She hadn't been in the kitchen for several years, and her cooking skills... were really hard to say.
However, at this moment, Bronya reached out and patted Mei on the shoulder, "Relax, you are the famous Herrscher of Food. A few years without entering the kitchen will not affect your strength."
Mei was speechless. What the hell is this Herrscher of Food?!
Chapter 146: A Girl Addicted to Virtual Games
Three days later, Bronya and Blackie pushed open the ward door and entered the ward.
"Hey! It's Seele and Bronya. I thought it was the doctor."
Theresa's voice rang out in the hospital room. Bronya nodded and looked at the duck lying on the bed. "Still not... awake?"
Theresa's voice was very low. Bronya and Blackie sat down by the bed. Blackie reached out and gently stroked Bronya's face, asking in confusion, "But... wasn't the Honkai invasion resolved? Why hasn't she woken up yet?"
Hei hope couldn't understand why the Honkai erosion had been neutralized. Although this also neutralized most of the Herrscher energy contained in Bronya's body, Bronya was now basically the same as an ordinary girl.
Hmm? You mean Little Bunny? Bronya's Heavy Bunny has already been torn in half by Bronya's Bunny and returned to the Sea of Quanta to recuperate. It probably won't be active for a long time.
I can sense Bronya's active consciousness; it's like...a dream.
Bai hope, who had been lingering next to the duck-shaped pillow, told the two of them about her discovery. Theresa, who was standing nearby, said somewhat dejectedly, "Well, the doctors said that Bronya's brain activity is very high. Maybe she's dreaming or something. We tried to wake her up, but it didn't work."
"Like a teenage girl addicted to the virtual world who can't be woken up."
Bronya reached out and pinched Bronya's little cheek. After the injection of the Honkai energy neutralizer, and with the help of the Shenzhou researchers and Dr. Einstein, Bronya's physical condition improved rapidly, but she just couldn't be woken up.
At that moment, the ward door opened again, and Kiana, Mei, and Himeko entered the ward. "Bronya! We've come to see you! Eh? The other Bronya, Seele, you're here too."
Hei hope simply nodded in response, while Bronya smiled and waved, "You're here too, what a coincidence."
"It's quite a coincidence. I didn't expect to run into you here again. But Bronya still hasn't woken up?"
Himeko walked to the bedside and looked at the peacefully sleeping Bronya. She couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. Mei said helplessly, "You can't wake someone who's pretending to be asleep no matter what. Should we try some rough methods? Like... waking her up after we enter her dream?"
Bronya decisively stopped Mei's rash idea, "No, we can't do that. After we interrogated Void Archives, he wanted to place Bronya in a space made of dreams in order to better control her, so that Bronya's main consciousness would be immersed in the dream, and then he would directly control her body."
"However, due to the Honkai erosion, she is not at 100% combat power under the control of Void Archives. In terms of dream construction, he has already considered the possibility of invading the dream to awaken her. If we forcibly enter her dream now and try to awaken her, it is very likely to trigger the defense mechanism and cause brain damage."
Bronya sighed slightly. "Anyway, let's take it slow. The best way now is to let her try to wake up on her own and realize that she is in a fake dream."
The atmosphere inside the ward was a little heavy, but it was quickly broken by Bronya's speech.
"Alright, let's not talk about these heavy things anymore. Kiana, what are your plans for the future?"
"China has opened a censorship channel to our world. Do you want to go?"
This decision was made after careful consideration by the Shenzhou Cabinet and Her Majesty Su Mengyao. Many of the Shenzhou survivors suffered severe psychological trauma, and there were also many ordinary people who could not stay at the temporary base for a long time. However, the environment of this world is extremely harsh at this stage, and ordinary people cannot survive without protection.
Therefore, after deliberation, the Cabinet decided to temporarily establish a shelter deep in the mountains above Research Institute No. 1. All survivors who passed the screening could go there to live, and all supplies for these survivors would be provided by Shenzhou, and it would be ensured that they would not enter Shenzhou society for a long period of time.
After all, these people's worldviews are very different from those of the people of China. In addition, some of the young Valkyries suffer from trauma syndromes. If they were to enter society, they could have a great impact. Of course, the most important thing is the research on Honkai.
The Shenzhou authorities dared not harbor any intention of introducing the Honkai into their world, so they had to be extremely cautious. This is also the reason why the garrison was isolated from normal society—to prevent the Honkai from spreading.
"Well... Himeko-sensei and I have already discussed it. We will continue to stay in this world. After all, the monsters in this world have not been completely cleared out, and we have not yet made contact with the other two survivor settlements."
"Perhaps we will only be able to rest when the world truly becomes peaceful."
Kiana smiled and Mei nodded, "Yes, after all... we are Herrschers. Even if we are not controlled by the Honkai Will, we don't know what kind of danger entering your world would cause."
"However, we still think it would be better for Himeko-sensei to go there. After all, Himeko-sensei's Honkai corruption... is still quite severe. Going to your world should allow her to receive better control and healing, but..."
All eyes turned to Himeko, who laughed heartily, "Hahaha! How could that be? I am a Valkyrie, a warrior."
"Do you think I would do something like sending a soldier to the rear to recuperate after his own battle? Besides, the erosion didn't kill me, and I'm in excellent condition right now, capable of fighting for a whole day straight!"
Bronya blinked and looked at Theresa. Theresa sighed, "Don't forget, I'm a fusion warrior. There's a Honkai Beast inside me. Even with Judas around, I wouldn't dare to go and risk it."
