"Mei! I hope nothing happens to you!" He had these thoughts in his heart.
Chapter 42 The Power of Mutation
Kevin acted faster than he thought. He didn't have time to think about what was happening or why he was able to break the glass with one punch. He jumped out of the broken window and came to the corridor.
At this moment, the originally peaceful and beautiful campus has been drowned in screams. The corridors are filled with crowds of people, the air is filled with the smell of blood, and some low roars can be heard, as well as students who are lying on the ground struggling and then eroded by purple lines and turned into ashes.
"Excuse me, please make way for a moment, excuse me, please make way for a moment--" Kevin shouted loudly, squeezed through the crowd and ran towards the principal's office.
Mei and Kevin are classmates, but before class, the principal called Mei over for something. Kevin kept praying that Mei would be fine, and then quickened his pace.
Along the way, the number of people who turned into ashes and mutated into monsters increased, and even the corridors were filled with corpses.
The students rushed downstairs like crazy, crowding in the corridor like headless flies, and it became a canteen for those mutated monsters to eat.
Amid screams, Kevin went against the flow of people and finally arrived at the principal's office.
Looking at the tightly closed iron door of the office, Kevin breathed a sigh of relief, then knocked on the door gently and lowered his voice: "Mei! Mei! Are you in there!"
"Kevin, is that you?" Mei's panicked voice came from inside.
"It's me!" Kevin was overjoyed and answered immediately.
"I'll open the door now, wait for me." Soon, the iron door of the office was opened. As soon as Kevin entered the office, he found Mei shivering.
"Are you okay, Mei? I was worried about you." Kevin immediately closed the iron door of the office and then put his arm around Mei's shoulders.
"I...I...I'm fine..." Mei choked several times before shaking her head. "I thought you, Kevin, what happened? Why did you suddenly become like this?"
Mei looked frightened and spoke incoherently. She had never experienced such a scene before. No matter how talented she was, Mei was just a high school student at the moment.
"It's okay, Mei, don't worry, I'm here." Kevin comforted Mei, and noticed out of the corner of his eye that the office window was wide open.
Why is this window not closed?
"It was the principal... In order not to hurt me, he jumped down and turned into that kind of monster." Mei's words answered Kevin's doubts.
Thinking of the easy-going and funny principal, Kevin felt a little depressed.
The tenderness between the two did not last long.
Because the roars of monsters outside the field and the screams of their own kind always remind them that this is definitely not a safe place and every minute and every second should not be wasted.
"Ah--" At this moment, there was another scream, followed by a figure passing by the window, and then a dull sound came from downstairs.
Apparently, someone fell from the building.
"Kevin, I'm much better." Mei patted Kevin's shoulder, and her voice gradually became calm.
Kevin hesitantly let go of Mei, who quickly walked to the window and looked down. She saw the figure below. It was someone she knew, a teacher.
"...Kevin, maybe the office is not safe either." Mei said uncertainly after hesitating for a moment.
Under Kevin's questioning gaze, Mei stated her logic.
According to the structure of this teaching building, there is another office above the principal's office. It is obvious that he jumped out of the office, but is this necessary? As long as the door is closed, it can at least temporarily block those mortal monsters. The other party's identity as a teacher means that he must have been hiding in the office at the beginning of the disaster.
Is there something that can break through the iron door of the office?
That’s what Mei thought.
Such a guess made both of them feel depressed.
"We have to leave here." After a moment of silence, Kevin made a decision.
We can't just sit there and wait for death, we have to run out.
"But those monsters..." Mei was interrupted by a loud noise before she could finish her words.
The sound was like thunder piercing the sky. Suddenly, several huge cavities appeared in the sky that was originally covered with dark clouds. Brilliant light shone from the cavities to the earth, forming several thick and dazzling pillars of light.
However, the beam of light was not the sun's radiance, but an ominous red-purple color.
Then, as if the air was constantly being squeezed and exploded, several huge meteorites, trailing purple-red fireworks, fell from the cavities. Under the horrified gaze of Mei and Kevin, a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky.
The tall buildings in the distance collapsed with a loud bang, and the strong shock wave spread instantly. The white air waves visible to the naked eye swept over, tearing apart all life along the way.
"Be careful!" Kevin rushed towards Mei and knocked her to the ground while she was stunned in front of the window. At this moment, the shock wave arrived at Qianyu Academy.
boom--
With a crisp sound of shattering, the window glass exploded directly, and the debris fell to the ground with a clang, shaking the earth and the sky.
When the shaking finally stopped, Mei calmed down and finally realized what had happened.
"Kevin! Kevin, are you okay, Kevin?" Mei frantically tried to push Kevin away who was pressing on her, and check the wound on his body caused by the flying glass.
However, the scene in front of her made Mei stunned.
The glass scratched Kevin's clothes on the back, leaving many cracks, but there was no wound on his exposed back.
"How is this possible?" Mei was very sure that the speed at which the glass splattered was enough to penetrate a person's flesh.
"I feel like I'm... full of power?" Kevin looked at his hands in a daze.
"What do you mean?"
Kevin did not answer Mei immediately. Instead, he helped Mei stand up, glanced around, and put his hands on the thick desk.
His intuition told him that he could easily destroy this desk.
Kevin placed his hands on the desk surface, then, hard... hard...
click-
The sound was not loud, but it was like a gong beating in Kevin's ears.
The thick desk actually cracked in the middle. As Kevin exerted more force, it finally couldn't hold on and broke into two pieces, hitting the ground with a thud.
"Kevin, what the hell are you doing..." Mei covered her mouth, which was open in surprise, with her hands.
The thickness of this table was simply not something an ordinary person could easily break, so how could Kevin possibly do it? He was indeed good at sports, but it was only the kind of good that an ordinary person could do. He did not possess this kind of inhuman strength at all.
Kevin stared at the wreckage of the table on the ground for a while, and then a surge of joy surged in his heart: "Great, Mei, I can rescue you, as long as I have this power!"
Chapter 43 Ruan Mei's Gift
According to the memory in his mind, the Herrscher born in Changkong City, the third Herrscher, will be the one who masters electromagnetic force, the Herrscher of Thunder.
Electromagnetic force is one of the four fundamental forces of interaction in nature. As a pure ability, it is very powerful, or in other words, none of the abilities of the Ruler is weak.
However, Ruan Mei was not interested in Him.
The Law of Reason, as the first Law-maker, is the beginning of research.
The Herrscher of the Void, whose power is to control imaginary space, is the Herrscher closest to Cocoon and an excellent experimental subject.
Therefore, the Herrscher of Thunder had no research value for Ruan Mei, and she didn't even plan to let Hol Haiya collect the Herrscher core of the Herrscher of Thunder.
Ruan Mei came to Changkong City just to choose a suitable item as a prototype of a gift for Mebius, and that thing was the Honkai Beast.
Although the monsters spawned by the Honkai are not as powerful as the Herrschers, their strength is also very strong, and their huge numbers make it extremely difficult for human armies to face the Honkai beasts.
What Ruan Mei was targeting was the Honkai beast that was born with the Herrscher - when every Herrscher was born, Honkai would give birth to a companion Honkai beast for him, and the level was definitely a Judgment-level Honkai beast.
In the game's plot, the Third Herrscher's companion Honkai Beast is the Honkai Beast that Mebius chose to fuse with when he became a fusion warrior.
Ruan Mei planned to use this Honkai beast as a base, modify it slightly, and then give it to Mebius as a gift to celebrate her birthday and to congratulate her on the progress made in her experiment.
For a scholar, there is no better gift than a perfect experimental subject.
Ruan Mei was so sure.
So, when the meteorite filled with Honkai energy fell from the sky, she just sat in the coffee shop at the entrance of Qianyu Academy and watched the scene happen quietly.
In addition to Ruan Mei, there were some other people in the coffee shop, sitting or standing nervously.
Some of these people were in the coffee shop when the disaster broke out, some ran into the coffee shop to take shelter after the disaster broke out, some were students, some were employees, and some were just passing social animals. The only thing they had in common was that they were lucky enough.
I was lucky enough to meet Ruan Mei when the disaster broke out.
They looked through the glass at the apocalyptic scene outside, feeling shocked and terrified, and when their gazes moved to Ruan Mei, they were filled with respect and awe.
Everyone knew that if it weren't for this seemingly weak lady, they would not have survived and would have ended up like the monsters wandering outside.
Ruan Mei's cold and aloof personality and unique moral values make her proactive in handling her experimental subjects.
As for the disasters that were not caused by her, and the individuals affected, she did not care much. She casually sheltered the survivors who asked her for help, which was a manifestation of the influence of this indifference on moral values.
Ruan Mei separated her coffee shop from this world, so it was not affected by the concentration of Honkai. Otherwise, those people with low Honkai adaptability would have been eroded by it long ago.
Likewise, only lives permitted by the rules can notice and enter the coffee shop, thus keeping monsters out.
For those hiding in the coffee shop, as long as they don't go out, there will be no danger. As for those outside the coffee shop, I just hope that their luck is enough to support them until they discover the abnormality of the coffee shop and pass through the obstruction of the Honkai monsters to come near the coffee shop.
"You...your coffee, please enjoy." A handsome coffee shop clerk tremblingly held a cup of coffee and placed it in front of Ruan Mei.
"Thank you." Ruan Mei nodded and said to the clerk.
She was very polite and her voice was gentle, but this gentleness and politeness made the people in the store look at Ruan Mei with more awe and even fear.
Is there really anyone who would remain indifferent to the tragic death of his own kind?
If you are an antisocial personality, you might feel ecstasy; if you are a saint, you might feel ashamed; if you are an ordinary person, you might feel sad and afraid...
However, what if a person behaves indifferently?
Those bright eyes looked at the hellish scene on earth without a trace of emotion, so cold that it made people tremble.
Her polite, graceful and gentle attitude seemed to be a layer of disguise. If she tore off her disguise the next moment and transformed into a hideous monster, slaughtering the entire coffee shop, it would not be a surprising development at all.
Ruan Mei could naturally feel the fear in their gazes, and she could even see through their thoughts, but she didn't care.
He picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.
The rich aroma of coffee and milk, but with a hint of burnt smell, perhaps because the waiter was too nervous and the coffee was a little overcooked.
Even if it wasn't overdone and not quite to the taste, it was objectively good.
Ruan Mei put down the cup, closed her eyes, and waited quietly...
The emergence of the Herrscher not only requires an extremely high concentration of Honkai, but also takes time to incubate. At this point, there is still some time before the Herrscher appears.
Ruan Mei could sense that a faint breath of life had appeared in Qianyu Academy. It was slowly growing and absorbing the free power of collapse in the air.
There is no doubt that this life is the Ruler of Thunder.
As for his companion beast, Shesha, it was being nurtured even deeper underground.
In Honkai Impact 3rd, the Judgment-level Honkai Beast is the pinnacle of all Honkai Beasts, excluding the Law-Ending-level Honkai Beast that is excluded from the discussion, and is only slightly weaker than the Herrscher.
Shesha's power is relatively weak among the Judgment-level Honkai beasts, but its terror is unquestionable because its ability is resurrection.
In the original game plot, Mebius, as the Infinite Hero, has the most impressive ability, which is her ability to resurrect.
However, this resurrection has limitations and side effects, and is not truly immortal. Moreover, every resurrection will affect her body, making her physical age continue to decrease.
What Ruan Mei wanted to do was to push Mebius to true infinity—at least physical infinity.
Allowing the imprint of infinity to be better reflected on Mebius is the best gift Ruan Mei can give to her daughter.
Chapter 44 Breaking in
A wooden baseball bat hit a zombie's head. The moment the bat touched the head, the latter was like being hit by a truck.
The bones and flesh in the neck were torn off, and the head flew out like a ball.
After doing all this, Kevin immediately grabbed Mei's hand and said quickly, "Mei, run!"
The reason why they were so anxious was that a group of monsters were following them.
Due to the layout of Qianyu Academy, Kevin and Mei had to pass through the woods that divided the academy into different areas if they wanted to escape.
However, after the disaster broke out, most of the people in the school either turned into zombies or turned into humanoid monsters holding sickles.
These monsters filled the entire school. Their hearing and vision were extremely sharp. Just a small mistake and Kevin and his companions were targeted.
