K424 of the Collapse World

(My body is so light...! I think I can protect myself now.)

Indeed, Lan Feng's physical fitness has been enhanced to a considerable extent. With the dynamic vision of ordinary people, they can only see a white shadow passing over the wasteland.

"Huh? What is that?"

While running, Lan Feng suddenly discovered that there was a half-long object buried not far from him. It was clearly different from the damaged machinery around it and looked like some kind of weapon...

Driven by curiosity, Lan Feng ran over and picked up the strip.

"Like this... a prototype impulse sword? No, it's a bit shorter than that. But it doesn't look damaged."

Lan Feng looked at the white mechanical short sword in his hand. The blade was a layer of purple-red crystals. It looked very much like the prototype pulse sword in Honkai Impact 3. However, the blade was only the length of a dagger.

If Charlie were here, he would find that the weapon Lan Feng just picked up was the pulse dagger he had lost.

"Hehe... At the beginning, I'm a loli. Do I have to pick up all the equipment?"

Lan Feng laughed at herself, wiped the dust off the dagger with the corner of her clothes, and continued to move forward. She was approaching the border of the scorched earth and would soon enter a vast forest.

"Anyway, let's find a place where people live first."

After the collapse, although most of the world was safe under perfect protection, many villages in the wilderness and some poor areas were destroyed by the rampant collapse beasts and dead soldiers.

In a long-abandoned village, only a few ruins were left, with no living creatures. The only things left were the scattered "corpses" wandering around.

The dead soldiers are humans who have been completely eroded by the Honkai. They are controlled by the will of the Honkai and attack humans instinctively. Their behavior is like that of zombies.

"Hiss...roar..."

In front of a house door that had been broken into pieces, a dead warrior with pale skin dragged his feet stiffly. Suddenly, his body paused slightly, and his head twisted in a strange direction, staring at a figure walking slowly towards him with his pale eye sockets.

Before it could leap up and pounce on the man, a beam of red light in front of it instantly pierced through its forehead, leaving a charred hole. Not a drop of blood was spilled, and the assassin fell backwards without a sound.

The silver-haired middle-aged man took a little girl's hand, put his weapon into its holster, and walked into the dilapidated house.

After picking up the little girl and placing her on the only relatively intact wooden bed, Siegfried fell silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.

However, something unexpected happened.

"who are you?"

Siegfried was stunned. He didn't expect that this clone of Kiana could actually speak.

(What's going on...? Her brain should be like a blank sheet of paper, without any memory foundation...)

"I...I am your father. My name is Siegfried."

Siegfried said this, feeling a bitterness in his heart.

Is she...really her own daughter?

"Father? Dad?"

The little girl looked at the man in front of her in confusion. She could understand what the man said, but she didn't understand what was going on.

Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I? What should I do? …

The clone girl's memory was originally blank, and she suddenly gained consciousness. Unsurprisingly, she fell into confusion when thinking about these questions.

The girl held her head, and the pupil of her right eye slowly turned golden...

"Hey! Come back to your senses!"

Hearing Siegfried's anxious shout, the girl came back to her senses and looked at Siegfried with her heterochromatic eyes, waiting for his next words.

Looking at the girl's golden right pupil, Siegfried couldn't help but think of the Second Herrscher who killed Cecilia, and couldn't help but clench his fists.

(No... it has nothing to do with this child. The guilty ones are the Second Herrscher and Otto!)

Siegfried was thinking angrily, when suddenly, he felt a soft touch on the back of his clenched fist!

Siegfried looked at the little girl holding his hand in astonishment. Her inorganic eyes revealed a trace of worry...

Siegfried discovered that this girl had already occupied an important place in his heart without him realizing it...

(You... why... I just want to keep my love for Kiana, what do you want me to do?!)

The girl could not see Siegfried's inner struggle, she was just worried about why her "father" suddenly became so miserable?

齐格

Fei closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, the struggle in his eyes had disappeared.

Siegfried raised his other hand and gently placed it on the girl's small hand.

"Your eyes...? Never mind. Remember, you are my daughter. You were seriously injured in an accident and you can't remember many things from before."

Looking at the silver-haired girl who was listening attentively, Siegfried lowered his head.

The real Kiana is still in danger... What exactly does what I am doing now mean...

023 Opportunity of Power

In a forest in Ukraine, Anti-Entropy once established a branch in Europe. But now, there is only a barren land.

In the wasteland not far from this area, a little girl with long silver hair was walking in the sparse forest.

"I feel as if I have returned to primitive life..."

Lan Feng walked on the wet land with lifeless eyes. She didn't know where she should go. She even didn't know where she was!

In this situation, she could only move aimlessly.

(Maybe if you pass through this forest, you will find a village inhabited by humans!)

Secretly cheering himself up in his heart, Lan Feng walked while playing with the dagger he picked up.

This high-tech dagger was obviously not an ordinary cold weapon. Lan Feng saw a small button on the handle and tried to press it.

hum...

“Ohh! This is really…!”

As Lan Feng looked at him in surprise, a dangerous buzzing sound appeared as the sharp edge of the dagger was stained with a layer of purple-red light...

If Lan Feng only felt that the blade of the dagger was sharp just now, now the flash of the blade gave her a sense of danger.

He aimed the knife at a tree nearby and swung it gently. His wrist barely felt any resistance as a deep cut was left on the trunk.

"High concentration of compressed energy... is not Houkai energy, it should increase the sharpness?"

Feeling the energy attached to the dagger, Lan Feng nodded with satisfaction. She would not dare to try to touch the glowing blade.

After all, Lan Feng had never come into contact with these weapons before, so he was very interested in this dagger.

After a few seconds, the glowing dagger dimmed and the faint vibration sound also subsided.

"It's really like the prototype pulse weapon in 3rd... Is this a weapon skill that can temporarily overclock?"

Lan Feng looked at the weapon in her hand with interest, but she did not press the button again. Who knows if this weapon will consume the stored energy? What if the energy in the weapon is used up by herself, what should she do when she encounters danger?

Although the weapon skills in the game consume one's own energy, Lan Feng did not feel any energy being drawn from his body when he pressed the button of the knife.

"But then again, this forest... is a little strange."

Generally speaking, there will be more or less some small animals in this kind of forest in the wild.

However, this forest was strangely quiet...

——!

Suddenly, Lan Feng was startled and stopped.

Looking into the depths of the forest, Lan Feng's eyes gradually became sharper. His vigilance, which had just been lowered, was raised again.

Lan Feng focused his attention and stared at the densely packed branches on his side. From them, waves of malice directed at him emanated, and gradually became stronger...

“The hostility has finally been exposed…! I can’t even sense it easily. And… this energy fluctuation that originates from me is Honkai energy?”

(If it hadn't revealed itself... I wouldn't have discovered this thing at all... Is it a Honkai beast?)

(Should I run away...? Or...)

It was impossible not to be nervous. This was the first time Lan Feng encountered a so-called Honkai beast in this world. She felt a mixture of excitement and fear. She couldn't help but tightly grasp the only thing she could rely on...

(Can my current abilities really stand up to Honkai beasts...?)

Lan Feng didn't know this. She was afraid to face this unknown fear, but on the other hand, she wanted to verify her current ability...

- Swish!

Lan Feng was not given any extra time to think as something strange happened!

A white shadow shot out from the woods like an arrow and crashed head-on into Lan Feng!

Although the speed was extremely fast, Lan Feng was able to clearly see the attacker's appearance in an instant thanks to his excellent reaction ability and dynamic vision.

It is a flying insect-like creature as big as a chair, with a purple and white shell on its body and thin, sharp wings that reflect a metallic luster.

These Honkai beasts are collectively referred to as Advance-level Honkai beasts. Although they have different appearances, they all have the same characteristics...

Small in size and fast in speed!

puff……!

Lan Feng hurriedly dodged to the side in an attempt to avoid the attack. However, due to his lack of knowledge of the Honkai Beast, Lan Feng misjudged the attack distance of the Honkai Beast. The sharp wing tip that passed by at high speed hit him.

A bloody mark was left on the girl's shoulder!

"Hmm...! The tip of its wing shell is transparent? And... why does it not feel... painful?"

Lan Feng covered his shoulders and stared at the Honkai beast that was slowly returning, feeling a little strange.

(I didn’t feel any intense pain, but my mind was receiving the message that I was injured. What’s going on? It should be related to Honkai energy, but… it’s not important! And…)

Lan Feng knew that no matter where this change came from, it would be good for him.

It's an inexplicable understanding, an instinctive knowing that is, in fact, the evolution of the nervous system.

The pain that humans feel when they are hurt is originally meant to remind themselves of the severity of the injury and to help protect themselves. However, people often cannot bear the severe pain after being seriously hurt, which causes trouble instead.

The collapse energy caused Lan Feng's body to evolve in some way, weakening the body's overly strong perception of pain without affecting normal sense of touch, but the brain would still receive information about the severity of the injury.

(The surface of the skin was damaged, some capillaries were broken, and there was slight bleeding... just a minor injury.)

If it was Lan Feng in her previous life, she would be horrified if she saw a little blood on her finger. But now, she looked at her right shoulder covered in blood, but surprisingly she didn't feel panic.

The Honkai Beast attacked again, slashing at Lan Feng with its wing shell. But this time, Lan Feng could see its trajectory clearly! He dodged the attack by crouching slightly, and at the same time, he slashed the side of the Honkai Beast with the dagger in his right hand, bringing out a purple-red liquid!

The two sides fought each other, and this time, Lan Feng was unharmed, but instead tore the belly of the Honkai Beast.

023 Opportunity of Power>>

(Humph... Honkai Beast, it's nothing more than that!)

Under the dual stimulation of battle and blood, Lan Feng felt his brain's central nervous system getting excited!

(Its speed... I can see it clearly!)

At this time, the Honkai beast was floating quietly in place, confronting Lan Feng, and did not attack for a while.

Honkai beasts are creatures formed when the Honkai erodes the bodies of wild beasts. They have appeared in ancient times. Moreover, as the Honkai fights against humans, Honkai beasts are constantly evolving.

The early Honkai beasts were just like wild beasts that had lost their minds. However, after countless years of evolution, the Honkai beasts have now become perfect killing machines, with almost no appearance of wild beasts.

The crystals of Honkai energy condense into their hard shells, and their body structures are becoming more and more perfect. Honkai beasts are extremely dangerous to anyone. The humans they attack are either eaten or infected and turned into dead soldiers - a zombie-like existence.

Just the Honkai beast in front of Lan Feng could easily slaughter countless ordinary people.

Looking at the Honkai beast that suddenly stopped in place, Lan Feng couldn't help but feel a little strange.

(What is it waiting for...why hasn't it attacked yet? Wait...this is it!)

Suddenly feeling the vague gathering of the Honkai energy ahead, Lan Feng's expression turned into shock.

(Oh no! It's storing energy?!)

Before Lan Feng could react, the next moment, accompanied by a sonic boom, the Breakthrough-level Collapse Beast turned into a stream of light and burst out! The sharp edges of its head pointed directly at Lan Feng's chest!

Lan Feng's blood seemed to freeze at that moment. The threat of death made her feel cold all over...

(If you hit me... you will die!)

I subconsciously analyzed the destructive power of Honkai Beast's attack, and the result was this...

The figure of the Honkai Beast was already close at hand, and it seemed that it would use its cold edges to pierce Lan Feng's chest in the next moment!

The girl's azure blue pupils slightly dilated, and all the emotions in her eyes disappeared...
