The man pulled out the big sword that he had just thrown and stabbed into the ground, then walked up to the Self-Defense Force soldier who had blocked his way and said, "Okay, move the fence and gates back. Leave the rest to the professionals."

"...those monsters." The Self-Defense Force soldier swallowed but could not utter any other words. Horror, panic, and the unknown filled his mind.

"We will clean up those monsters and do our job well." The man said calmly.

"Remove the door." The soldier who was suspected to be the captain gave the order and asked other soldiers to open the makeshift fence door. Then he looked at the man and said, "Sir, I leave it to you. Take care on your journey."

The man nodded, then got back on the bus, drove past the soldiers, and sped towards the core area.

"Sir, we...?"

"Burn the dead bodies quickly. Follow the instructions above. If the bodies are not burned, they will turn into zombie-like beings and crawl up." The Self-Defense Force soldier said with a heavy heart, "I originally thought that it was something that only appeared in movies... Damn it... What on earth is wrong with this world?!"

Looking at the speeding bus, the soldiers could only wait silently for those people to bring results. After burning the bodies, the soldiers dismantled the guardrails and extended the blockade line as required.

……

"Captain, the concentration of Honkai energy around us is very high, and has gradually exceeded the threshold that normal people can bear. If you stay here for a long time, normal people will basically induce Honkai disease, and those with no resistance or poor resistance will turn themselves into ashes. Those with slightly better resistance will become dead soldiers." Brownie checked the parameters monitored by the instrument and then said.

"Damn it... How could such a large-scale collapse suddenly break out!" Wang Chen was in a bad mood. When he saw those monsters tearing humans apart, he realized how fragile most ordinary people were in front of the collapse. Even the best soldiers among humans, if they did not have resistance and special powers, would be nothing more than grass waiting to be harvested in front of the collapse.

"The spread of Houkai energy has been temporarily contained by Kiana using the power of the Saint Prayer Armor. Scarlet is responsible for using the electromagnetic induction generated by the power of lightning to detect whether there are any living life forms around and rescue them. Now it's only us and Principal Theresa who has entered the Houkai battlefield in advance to defeat the Pseudo-Hermaphrodite."

Brownie explained.

"Everyone here, we are about to enter the core area. This time, for some of you, it is a real battle to face the Honkai battlefield. This is different from the usual cleaning of some miscellaneous soldiers. When entering the area, you should have felt this indescribable pressure. Your body aches slightly, and even breathing is very uncomfortable. Fighting in a high-concentration Honkai energy area consumes our physical energy every moment. We must even be vigilant against the erosion of consciousness! Once abnormal auditory and visual hallucinations occur, report them immediately and stay calm!"

Bronya also stood up at this moment and spoke to the women present on the bus.

"Yes!" The voices came from Kiana, Mei and Houraiji Kyushu. After all, among the people present, these three girls had the least experience fighting in the Honkai battlefield.

"Then it's Miss Raven, and Xing. Scarlet has removed some of your powers as requested, allowing you to have a certain combat capability and self-protection ability on the battlefield. Please follow the troops closely and cooperate with them. Don't make any unnecessary movements." Bronya looked at Raven, who had changed into combat uniform, and Xingmal, who had an indifferent attitude.

"Yeah." Raven just nodded slightly, her expression a little solemn, looking at the collapse and erosion of the earth outside the window, her thoughts were suddenly brought to the snowfield of Siberia when she was a child. At that time, the surroundings were also like now, with purple unknown liquid everywhere, the sky was depressing, and her body felt as if she had a severe fever and was very uncomfortable.

"Tsk, got it." But Xingmaer didn't care about these and just responded to Bronya's words reluctantly.

"Then there are the five members of Team Glow. You have been working together for a long time and have a tacit understanding with each other. If we fight together, we will hinder each other. Why don't we split into two teams and take care of each other. How about cooperating with each other?" Bronya asked.

"Well, I don't have any opinions... Solving the Honkai and the Pseudo-Hermaphrodites as soon as possible is more important than anything else." Aisha Lopez's eyes were different from usual, as if she was ready and aware of death. Huihuo also seemed very quiet now, always looking out the window to watch the changes in the surrounding environment, ready to fight at any time. Even the three teammates who were far less powerful than them, although they were panting and enduring the discomfort of their bodies, gritted their teeth and persisted, putting their hands on their weapons.

The Glowing Team has experienced several brutal battlefields and battles since its establishment. They have already been tempered. Even if it is the first time they have experienced a collapse close to the Herrscher level, they can still adjust themselves to the best state.

Chapter 9 The Bus Charges

Wang Chen took a look and couldn't help but sigh. The team from the Destiny Headquarters was different from the Far East Branch and the three protagonists with him. However, Wang Chen didn't demand too much from the three little ones. After all, human growth is not achieved overnight. Perhaps this visit to the Collapse Battlefield would bring them unexpected growth.

"Alright, everyone. Stop the further spread of the Honkai and prevent more deaths. We need to speed up. Principal Theresa has not yet succeeded in the attack... The enemy may be more difficult than we thought. We must quickly support the principal."

After all, Wang Chen had witnessed Theresa's fighting posture of tearing the Titan apart with bare hands, so he had a general understanding of Theresa's strength. Therefore, seeing that so much time had passed, not only the concentration of Honkai energy had not changed, but those vine tentacles had become more rampant, it could be imagined that the enemy's strength was not so easy to deal with and defeat.

"Speaking of which, we should have been alert when we saw the new Honkai beast yesterday. After all, it was a new Honkai beast that had never appeared before. Combined with the plant vines that have appeared now, I'm afraid that yesterday's monster and today's Pseudo-Hermendr are probably related." Wang Chen pondered.

"System warning: A large group of Honkai beasts has been detected ahead! Please prepare for battle immediately." Suddenly, the system's voice sounded in his mind. Wang Chen's eyes condensed, and then he said to Brownie and everyone beside him: "Brownie, you are responsible for driving, everyone else pay attention! We are about to usher in a wave of Honkai beasts! Everyone prepare for battle!"

After that, he left the driver's seat and exchanged positions with Brownie. Wang Chen opened the car window on the side, leaned out of the car body, grabbed the top of the car window with his left hand, and took out the Fire Goblin II pistol with his right hand. After hearing the order, the others also opened the windows on their sides and got ready.

Oncoming were hundreds of Assault-class Honkai beasts, about 60 Knight-class Honkai beasts, and a dozen Ballista-class Honkai beasts. After they detected the aura of the creature, they went into a frenzy, with purple Honkai energy attached to their bodies, and attacked the bus directly. These Honkai beasts, which were usually relatively weak, were now extremely ferocious in the face of the accumulation of numbers and the high concentration of Honkai energy in the main field.

"Get ready! We're about to hit the first wave of enemies!" Brownie shouted loudly, while stepping on the accelerator to accelerate.

Everyone concentrated, estimated the distance, and began to count down to the final collision in their hearts.

three

two

one! !

"Bang!!" The bus first hit the two Breakthrough-level Honkai Beasts, but the front window glass of the bus did not break. Instead, it smashed the Breakthrough-level Honkai Beasts into pieces. It turned out that the bus had already undergone special metal transformation, and the outer shell was extremely strong. Even the glass was made of the best explosion-proof and bulletproof materials.

"Bang bang bang!"

Then came the sound of bullets firing. The shooters were Wang Chen, Kiana, and Penglai Temple Jiuxiao, who were at the front of the bus. Their marksmanship was currently the best among all the people on the bus. They accurately shot at the Honkai beasts that had turned into drills and rushed over, and accurately shot at their Honkai cores. One bullet represented one enemy.

"Shhhhh-"

"Bang bang bang!"

In the middle of the bus, Raven and three members of Team Glow were shooting at the circling Assault-level Honkai Beasts on both sides to prevent them from hitting the bus and deviating from its direction.

Brownie controlled the steering wheel to turn left and right, avoiding obstacles one after another, trying not to hit the Honkai beasts and slow down. Bronya on the side summoned the Heavy Armored Bunny to the front window of the bus, using the power of the Rock God's Eye to summon a shield to reduce the damage to the car, while letting the Heavy Armored Bunny punch hard to clear the charge-level Honkai beasts in front.

"There are charge-level Honkai Beasts coming up ahead! Everyone get ready!" Brownie saw the knight-level Honkai Beasts appearing on the opposite side, ready to charge collectively. If the bus collides head-on with these charging greatswords, even with the protection of the rock-attributed God's Eye shield, the bus will be scrapped, so they cannot force their way in.

Brownie noticed a car wreck ahead that could be used as a springboard for a flyover, so he drove straight towards the wreckage.

"three!"

"two!"

"one!!"

In an instant, several people jumped out of the bus windows. The bus flew through the wreckage into the air, avoiding the attack of the Knight-level Honkai Beast.

Afterwards, several people who jumped out of the bus, led by Wang Chen, began to spin around the bus, and used the bus pedals to apparently adjust their postures.

First, Wang Chen, holding the Fire Fairy II in his right hand, shot a Charge-level Honkai Beast that was about to crash into the car window. Then he rotated his body, and through the inertia of rotation, he swung the Divine Fire Trial·Modified Greatsword that was already burning with flames in his left hand, and chopped a Knight-level Honkai Beast under the bus with one sword, cutting off its head and destroying the opponent's Honkai Core.

The other was Kiana, with her white pigtails fluttering in the air. She held the Water Fairy II dual guns in her hands and used Kaslana's spear fighting technique in the air. After shooting the cores of two Assault-level Honkai Beasts, she kicked her foot, turned over and came under the car, head down, raised her hands and shot at the heads of the two Knight-level Honkai Beasts below.

Coincidentally, Wang Chen also came under the car, and the two of them brushed past each other under the car. Then they hooked the edge of the chassis with their feet and climbed over to the side of the car body. They continued to shoot at the constantly attacking Honkai beasts.

In addition to Kiana and Wang Chen, there was one person who used electromagnetic power to stick his feet to the bus body, moving around the bus at high speed as if walking on flat ground. That person was Raiden Mei, who blocked the attacks of the knight-level Honkai beasts that reacted to the situation and wanted to raise their swords to pierce the chassis of the bus one by one, and pierced their cores with the seedling knife, the electric soul.

"Boom, boom, boom!" Suddenly, there were several cannon-like sounds. It turned out that the crossbow-level Honkai beasts in the distance seized the time when the bus was in the air and threw cannonballs, hitting the bus directly.

"Humph."

Suddenly, a cold laugh was heard.

“Time – stop it!!”

All objects in the entire space stopped moving instantly, including the three cannonballs thrown at them. Xingmar had climbed onto the roof of the bus at some point, and looking at the cannonballs thrown at the bus, he took out three bombs from behind and threw them directly at the three cannonballs.

"At the critical moment, it's still me who has to take action. Hehehe. Uh--" Xingmaer wanted to say something, but suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and then he had to retract his strength.

"Tsk... I can only stop time for 5 seconds now. I'm not used to it!" Xingmar sighed. There was nothing he could do. He had only unlocked a portion of his power now. His ability to stop time could no longer be used for as long as before.

"But, it's okay--bang! Hahahahaha!"

"Boom boom boom!"

As the voice fell, a huge explosion sounded, and all the cannonballs were blown to pieces, opening a path for the bus to move forward.

"Not bad, then it's our turn next, Huihuo, get ready to clear the way." A voice came from behind Xingmar. Xingmar turned around and saw that there were two more people on the roof, namely Aisha Lopez and Colorless Huihuo.

Chapter 10 Return to Qianyu Academy

"Get ready to land!" Brownie shouted.

The bus had started to descend with its front end facing downwards. Wang Chen and Kiana on the left and right sides of the bus swung their swords and shot and killed the last two Assault-level Honkai beasts, then grabbed the edge of the window and hung on it.

Mei Raiden came to the roof of the car and was surprised to find that there were already three people on the roof.

"Bang!" The car fell to the ground and the bus shook violently for a while. Fortunately, it did not cause much impact on everyone and they all managed to stabilize themselves.

Although the bus had passed the first wave of Knight-level Honkai Beasts, there were still several more attacks from Knight-level Honkai Beasts ahead. Moreover, the Crossbow-level Honkai Beasts in the distance were still watching closely and began to reload their cannonballs.

"Ms. Mei, can you help cover Hui Huo?" Aisha Lopez came to Mei Raiden with two swords in hand and said with a polite smile. Mei Raiden nodded, and stood on both sides of the colorless Hui Huo with Aisha Lopez to cover her.

Wu Se Hui Huo placed the artillery platform on the roof of the car, took out the eyepiece from somewhere, put it on, and said, "Hey, kid in front, get down quickly."

"Huh? Who are you calling a brat?!" Xingmar was about to confront him, but he found himself being lifted up by something. He looked back and saw that it was Bronya's Heavy-Duty Bunny 19C. Xingmar was carried back to the bus while cursing.

"That's why I don't like little brats." Colorless Brilliance flicked his eyepiece and said, "Don't look straight ahead, be careful not to hurt your eyes."

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

“fire!!!”

A dazzling light lit up from the muzzle, and with a flash of white light, the laser cannon shot straight forward. The charging knight-level Honkai beasts were swallowed up by the laser and annihilated instantly. The laser shot straight out over a range of a thousand meters.

Even the ballista-class Honkai beasts were hit by the laser and turned into smoke. A road full of burn marks was laid out in front of everyone, and the bus sped away. Only a bunch of assault-class Honkai beasts and ballista-class Honkai beasts were left in place, unable to catch up with the bus.

"Aren't we going to get rid of all those Honkai beasts?" Kiana asked after climbing in through the window.

"Let Scarlet deal with those Honkai beasts. Our current mission is to immediately enter the core area to support Principal Theresa, eliminate the Pseudo-Hermaphrodites, and remove the root cause of the Honkai." Wang Chen also turned over and got into the car and said.

"The longer we wait until the core is resolved, the higher the concentration of Honkai energy will be. By then, more and more Honkai beasts will be generated. We must save our energy and not get too entangled with these Honkai beasts."

"I don't know how my period is going." After hearing this, Kiana looked forward with some worry.

"Don't worry, your aunt is an S-rank Valkyrie, one of the strongest people in the Skyfate Headquarters. Maybe by the time we get there, your aunt will have solved it herself."

Wang Chen stroked Kiana's head and said to comfort her. Kiana nodded slightly.

Of course, this was just a consolation. In reality, as time went on, Wang Chen felt that the situation was not optimistic. Especially now that the Honkai beasts were already jumping around in the outer core area, and there was no news from the Far East Branch's troops.

"Still can't receive the message? Bronya?" Wang Chen asked.

"Well, the signal is still blocked and no message has been received." Bronya said.

"Tsk..." Wang Chen sighed. The reason why he and Theresa's team were separated was because of the division of labor. Wang Chen, Kiana, and Raiden Mei all had the power to stop the spread of Honkai and heal those infected with Honkai, so Wang Chen and the others would work together with Theresa's team.

Now he and his team have successfully controlled the spread of Honkai, and some people infected with Honkai disease have been successfully cured. But Honkai is not over yet, and the Far East branch has lost contact, so Wang Chen is ready to take his team to find out.

"You can see the Chiba Academy campus ahead. The vibration of the Pseudo-Herrscher is located there." Raiden Mei flipped over from the roof of the car, entered the car through the window, and said.

"Finally arrived at the core area... Qianyu Academy... Pseudo-Herrscher... No way? Could this be the reason why Theresa was defeated?" Wang Chen pondered carefully, and suddenly a plot from ancient times emerged in his mind.

He seemed to know why Theresa had not been able to defeat this Pseudo-Hermit for so long.

"This... is this still Qianyu Academy?" Suddenly, the voice of Penglai Temple Jiuxiao was heard. Wang Chen followed the words of Penglai Temple Jiuxiao and looked forward. His pupils couldn't help but shrink.

At this time, Qianyu Academy no longer looked like the academy before. There were vegetation, vines and roots everywhere, as if it had been swallowed by a huge plant monster. The broken walls and ruins around it looked like a fierce battle had just happened here.

Wang Chen paused for a moment, then said: "When you enter here, wear a gas mask and be careful not to get scratched by the plants. If you get scratched, notify me immediately."

This was the experience after the battle with the plant-type monster yesterday. Wang Chen inhaled the poison gas at the first moment and felt weak all over. If it were not for the electric current and the power of the Origin Ruler that came with a certain degree of purification and eliminated the toxins in time, he would have no energy left to save Raven.

Therefore, when Wang Chen discovered that this time the Honkai had broken out and many alienated Honkai products similar to plants had appeared, he had to be wary of poison gas and toxins as a means of attack, especially the plot related to Honkai that he had just recalled. If he remembered correctly, this pseudo-herrscher was the best at using poison. So he immediately prepared some military-grade gas masks and attached the power of the origin to the masks.

“……”Everyone took out their masks, put them on their heads, and listened carefully to Wang Chen’s advice, keeping it in mind.

However, after confirming the enemy's true identity, Wang Chen became more and more worried about Theresa's condition.

……

The bus stopped and everyone got off the bus, looking at the school that they had invaded as thieves a month ago. Now it had become dilapidated and full of creeping alien purple plants.

"Qiangqiang-"

Wang Chen used his greatsword to split the gate open, cut off the two thick purple vines in front of the gate, and led everyone in. The Glow Team formed a separate team, keeping a certain distance from the team led by Wang Chen, following behind, so that both teams could cooperate and support each other.

"It's only been a short time, but I didn't expect the school to become like this." Looking at the surrounding environment, Mei Raiden couldn't help but sigh. By the way, now Kiana, Mei Raiden, and even Kyushu of Houraiji have been transferred to St. Freya Academy by Theresa. Especially Kyushu of Houraiji, Theresa personally went to the Houraiji home to communicate with Kyushu's parents and finally confirmed it.

Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple is personally very happy to be able to continue staying with everyone and to learn better how to use his power and apply it to save the world.

Chapter 11: Walking into a Trap

"This is..." Wang Chen frowned, stroked the fragments on the ground, took a look, and said, "This is a fragment of the Valkyrie armor of the Far East Branch. It seems that a battle must have taken place here."

"Strange, if that's the case, where did all those Valkyries go? It's terribly quiet here, and I can't hear any sound of fighting at all." As she said that, Aisha Lopez wanted to lie on the ground and listen to the noises around her, but was quickly stopped by Wang Chen.

"Don't lie down... There will be vines like these coming out of the ground at any time."

"So what should we do next? This is a main building, and there is an area in the back. Where should we go to find Theresa and the others?" asked Colorless Huihuo.

However, just as he finished speaking, the vines at the entrance of the main teaching building suddenly moved slowly, revealing the blocked door, as if they were luring someone into a trap.

"Tsk... Looks like we're being monitored by the other party... But that's not surprising, this place is full of her minions. Captain, do you want to go in?" Bronya said after looking at this phenomenon.

"Go in, even if it's a Hongmen Banquet, we have to go in. We're worried that we can't find the way. But we have to be careful, everyone follow closely." After Wang Chen finished speaking, he was the first person to step into the teaching building, and the others followed closely behind him and followed Wang Chen into the teaching building.

……

"These are..." After entering the teaching building, everyone found that many students of Qianyu Academy were lying on the vegetation, wrapped in vines like cocoons. The vines were full of white flowers. It looked like they were wrapped in white cocoons.
