K424 of the Collapse World

"what?!"

With a slightly surprised cry, Shilis swung the magnetic sword directly at the figure in front of her! After throwing away the heavy gun, the sharp sword slashed at the neck of the black shadow at an unobservable speed...

But as expected, the opponent was obviously not so easy to defeat. The blade stopped its momentum in an instant and retreated! Along with this movement that seemed to ignore inertia, a burst of green arc-shaped energy remained in place, flickering slightly...

"Are you finally willing to show your true abilities? Valkyrie..."

Pointing the long sword in her hand at the figure in front of her, Shirley chuckled and said, with a hint of coldness in her eyes. Although only the outline of the figure could be seen in the dark, Shirley was sure that a female fighter with such fighting skills would

The member must be a Valkyrie from heaven.

"If you have any tricks, feel free to use them. Let's end the fight quickly. I don't have time to play with you guys now..."

"Hehe... In that case, please forgive me for being rude, Miss Anti-Entropy."

As the polite female voice sounded familiar, a trace of doubt appeared in Shilis's eyes. But then, a strong sense of crisis made her pupils shrink, and she instinctively rolled to the side. The next moment, a black shadow wrapped in green arcs rushed past the place where she had just stood, and the slightly scattered arcs hit the girl's armor, striking out sparks...

(There are two of us?!)

Shirley hurriedly adjusted her balance, but the next moment, the expected violent attack did not come, and what she heard was still the young female voice from before.

"Although the bishop's order did not require the elimination of the enemies in my ruins. However, if you, who are hindering the mission, are not eliminated as soon as possible, it will be very troublesome, right? So, I decided..."

Hearing the pretentiously gentle voice, Shilis raised her head with a bit of solemnity, looking at the black shadow that had just attacked her. Only then did she realize that the other attacker was not a Valkyrie, but a mechanical dog with green arcs wrapped around its body! At this moment, it was quietly standing beside the girl, with the sharp blade on its tail swinging slightly, as if preparing for the next attack...

With the help of these bright arcs, Shirley finally saw the face of her opponent. She was a girl with short brown hair, wearing a mechanical Valkyrie armor, which was obviously the exclusive armor for elite Valkyries. But compared to these, what surprised Shirley the most was that she had seen this Valkyrie at the headquarters of the Sky Destiny...

At this moment, the Valkyrie also looked back at Shirley, her cherry-pink pupils slightly dilated, and there was a hint of surprise on her beautiful face, as if she had just confirmed Shirley's identity...

"You are...k424?!"

Scarlet liquid flowed out from the delicate skin, slid down the crystal blade that pierced through the body, and gently splashed on the ground, blooming a small blood flower...

"Ahem...why..."

The silver-haired girl kneeling on the ground coughed up a mouthful of blood, her blue pupils full of confusion. She stared blankly at the little girl in front of her, holding the crystal sword that had pierced her chest in her hand.

On the other side, the girl just looked at her calmly for a long time, and a hint of teasing appeared on her face...

“Haha…hahahahaha…! Really, I don’t know what to say. How on earth did you stupid guys survive to this day? It’s unbelievable that you can succeed so easily…”

--laugh!

He pulled the blade in his hand back suddenly, and looked at the blood that splashed out as the blade was pulled out, and Latil smiled with satisfaction. The next moment, the girl's weak body fell forward, and as the pool of blood slowly expanded under her body, her breathing became weaker and weaker...

"You look like you don't understand. You probably want to ask me why I did this and why I was so cruel, right? Unfortunately, I won't tell you. Just go to hell with your doubts, just like that guy did..."

"..."

She swung the crystal blade in her hand, and the blood on it fell off. She turned the crystal sword, then leaned down slightly, squatted in front of Kiana, grabbed her hair, and lifted her head up roughly.

"Well......"

"Hmph, don't blame me... It's all that bitch's fault! You should pay for some of the sins she committed... Don't worry, she will be reunited with you soon..."

The girl murmured, with only a slight wave of emotion in her eyes, and then she returned to her previous cruelty. She let go of Kiana's hair, letting her fall, raised the blade in her hand, and slashed it hard at the silver-haired girl's neck...

——Click!

However, as Latier's expression instantly turned into astonishment, the girl, who had already lost the power to resist, suddenly raised her arm and grasped the sharp blade with her own hand, preventing it from falling any further...

"Yeah, I was really stupid, that's why I ended up like this..."

The girl said softly, covering her chest with her free hand, and slowly climbed up, not caring about her chest being stained with blood, and her emotionless blue eyes were locked on Latil...

"you......?"

"It seems that things are not as simple as I thought... But it doesn't matter. Hehe... Do you want to attack Sister Shilis? Well, I hope you are ready..."

Kiana said softly, exerting a little force,

She crushed the crystal blade in her hand. She slowly opened her right hand and aimed it at the stunned girl. The next moment, a sky full of golden light filled Latil's vision...

335 reversal

In the darkness, two figures circled around each other, circling and interweaving like ghosts, and the sound of metal clashing was endless!

The long sword and the short knife collided continuously, and the sword dance was almost impossible to catch with the naked eye. The arcs of blue and green electricity spread out with the collision of the sword and the knife, and the flying sparks kept flashing between the rock walls...

"Ah... This is truly an unexpected encounter, Miss Cecilia..."

In the fierce battle, the girl with short brown hair still had time to speak. She smiled and spoke, her breath was not disordered at all.

He crossed the two swords in his hands and blocked the straight sword's thrusting attack. At the same time, the mechanical dog surrounded by green arcs rushed forward, and the metal claws wrapped in electric current stretched forward, launching a joint attack on the weak silver-haired girl...

--boom!

However, the mechanical dog that pounced on the girl with an unstoppable momentum suddenly flew backwards with a huge roar! Several cracks appeared on its hard mechanical body, and the unstable electromagnetic field around it that was originally used for attack also dissipated, destroying a large area of ​​the surrounding rock wall.

In the girl's left hand, the super-electromagnetic hand cannon that had just fired a scattered beam of light was tightly held in her hand. Before the tiny flashes of light from the muzzle had gone out, she instantly turned the muzzle and pointed it at the brown-haired girl's shoulder...

---when!

However, before she could aim, the girl used one of her two swords to block Shirley's straight sword and directly pressed against the barrel of the super-electromagnetic hand cannon, pushing it to the other side. The next moment, dense arcs of electricity burst out from the muzzle and flew out, brushing against her shoulder and blasting into the rocks behind her, raising a cloud of dust.

As a result, the two swords that blocked the magnetic sword had been separated, and Shiris once again swung the freed magnetic sword and started a new round of confrontation with the girl in front of her...

"No offense, Lady Cecilia... The fighting method you use seems to be a little different from what is recorded in the data?"

The brown-haired girl turned her head to the side, easily dodging the girl's stab, and spoke again. She raised the two swords in her hands, and swung them out with an airtight dance, slashing at Shirley like a mountain mist, forcing her to retreat step by step. But the girl didn't seem to intend to take Shirley's life. Although the fierce slashing constituted suppression, it was not fatal to Shirley. The blade with arcs occasionally hit her body, but only left a shallow scratch on her armor...

"..."

Hearing this, Shilis frowned and didn't say anything. She tried to hold back her breath and suddenly opened her eyes wide. Then, she moved her wrist and used the same fierce and high-speed sword strike to suppress the girl's attack! She maintained her fierce attack mode and didn't show any weakness in front of her opponent.

Therefore, under the false impression deliberately created by Shirley and the girl's tentative attack, both sides believed that the other side did not use their true strength, and they kept dealing with each other in a tentative manner. However, even if they did not use their trump cards, this intensity of battle was still quite strenuous for Shirley in her current state...

In the fierce battle, Shirley remained in a state of thinking. Facing this strange brown-haired girl, Shirley suddenly had an inexplicable sense of crisis. This unfathomable feeling made her feel that this girl had some of Otto's shadow...

(Let’s put this aside! This guy is really strong...! This kind of mechanical self-regulating weapon is obviously not the standard equipment of ordinary Valkyries, and she should not have used her full strength. But she showed a surprised expression when she saw me just now, which means that she didn’t ambush me here... But since the Valkyries under the headquarters have recognized my identity, there is no reason for them to let me go, right?)

(If that's the case, there's no point in prolonging the battle. It seems like there's nothing we can do...)

Thinking of this, Shirley's eyes condensed, and the magnetic sword in her hand suddenly released bright electric light! The next moment, bright electromagnetic particles gathered together, and the sword edge constructed by the arc of light extended out. In the slightly enlarged pupils of the brown-haired girl, Shirley's figure holding the sword and slashing horizontally was reflected...

"Magnetic Blade!"

The extended blade of light swept across as the girl moved, aiming at the brown-haired girl's waist! As long as this strike hits, the particle layer constructed by the decomposition current can cut the girl in half from the waist!

———Swish! !

As a flash of green light passed by, and as the handle of a broken knife slowly fell, several stone pillars within a few dozen meters around slid down smoothly, and the smooth cut surface looked like carefully polished floor tiles...

However, Shiris's eyes focused. The Valkyrie, who was supposed to be killed by this blow, had disappeared on the spot accompanied by flashing green electricity!

"I was really surprised that he suddenly used such an attack..."

Suddenly, from behind

The gentle voice made Shirley's breathing stagnate! She instinctively put the long sword in her hand upright at her side. The next moment, a huge force that was enough to shake the mechanical armor fell on her wrist holding the sword! The huge black blade was across her neck, but it could not continue to cut forward due to the obstruction of the sword...

This is a sickle.

"It's over... Lady Cecilia, please calm down for a moment."

——Bang!

Suddenly, the heavy blow to her leg made the silver-haired girl half-kneel involuntarily. Her body shook violently, and her neck was almost hit by the sharp blade of the black giant sickle with green light! She slightly turned her eyes and saw that the mechanical dog that was repelled before had pounced on her again, stabbing the blade of its tail into the gap of the girl's leg armor. The next moment, a fierce green electric current penetrated Shiris's body...

"what......?"

In the surprised eyes of the brown-haired girl, Shilis, who was expected to be knocked down by the high voltage current, still stood firmly in place, her hand holding the blade was still strong, without the slightest tremor of paralysis...

"You want to knock me down with pure high voltage electricity? Unfortunately, this is impossible. The nature change of Honkai energy that I am most proficient in is electromagnetic force..."

Shiris said calmly, pressing the super-electromagnetic hand cannon in her left hand behind her, against the mechanical dog's head, her finger already on the trigger.

Although she didn't know whether a single shot at close range could defeat the mechanical dog, Shilis had no other choice at the moment. Although she still had a trump card at the moment, facing this Valkyrie of unknown strength, she didn't want to waste the power she had reserved for fighting Ji Xuanyuan...

(I’m just a maid who follows Yulandel… If I can’t even beat a Valkyrie like this, then I’m no better than a maid, right?)

"Can you wait a moment, Lady Cecilia..."

Suddenly, a gentle girl's voice interrupted her thoughts. Shilis turned her head and saw the kind smile on the face of the brown-haired girl holding a sickle.

"In fact, the conflict between us is completely unnecessary. If possible, would you like to listen to my explanation of the mission on my side?"

"..."

Hearing this, Shilis frowned and looked thoughtfully at the smiling brown-haired girl. The next moment, she looked at the super-electromagnetic hand cannon in her hand pointing at the mechanical dog, and a hint of realization appeared in her eyes.

"Could it be that this dog is very important to you?"

"Eh? This... hehe~~ That's not the case. However, I would be a little troubled if the Carbon Hunter was destroyed. Lady Cecilia, if you don't want to experience the effects of the neurotoxin, I suggest you don't shoot."

335 Reversal>>

The brown-haired girl seemed a little confused by Shirley's answer, but she still answered with a gentle expression. She slightly relaxed her grip on the sickle handle, and the pressure on Shirley's sword blade was immediately reduced a lot.

(Interesting...what's she up to?)

Shirley's eyes fluctuated slightly. After a brief thought, she chuckled and exhaled slightly, as if she also relaxed.

"Okay, what did you want to say? Also, don't call me by that name anymore, my name is Shilis. Shilis Kaslana!"

At this point, she shook the magnetic sword in her hand violently, and the sickle pressing on the blade was deflected. At the same time, she used the gun handle in her left hand to hit the mechanical dog hard, repelling it. The silver-haired girl, who had regained her mobility, immediately turned around and jumped back, creating some distance between herself and the Valkyrie behind her.

The brown-haired girl did not pursue, but just watched Shiris regroup and slightly lowered the sickle in her hand.

"Ms. Shilis. My name is Rita Rossweisse. In fact, I have no intention of being your enemy. I hid my presence just to avoid trouble. I had no intention of attacking you..."

"..."

"Perhaps we will have a conflict later, but before things develop to this point, I hope to avoid some unnecessary battles. After all, if I get hurt accidentally, that adult will be worried..."

"hehe......"

Hearing this, Shilis smiled and shook her head, turned the super electromagnetic hand cannon around her fingertips a few times, and then slowly put it back into the holster at her waist. Her aura became fierce again.

"Do you think I will believe your lies? I am the most wanted criminal of the Destiny Organization... I am somewhat self-aware of this matter. So, the priority of the mission to capture me must be higher than the mission you are currently carrying out, right?"

Hearing Shirley's voice with a hint of sarcasm, Rita sighed and spread her hands helplessly.

"I'm sorry, but I didn't lie. Your priority is indeed very high, but having said that, in this closed space with blocked communications, even if I met you here, I would not receive any other orders, and my superiors did not give me any backup action plans in advance, so I had no reason to attack you."

"Hmph... maybe, who knows if that's the case."

Shirley sneered, and as she spoke, she took a step towards the stone wall next to her and pressed her hand on the rough and uneven rock wall. Looking at Rita who seemed to want to say something, Shirley exhaled and spoke again.

"However, although you are most likely lying to me, I have the same idea as you... I will not waste any more time on such an unnecessary battle. If what you said is true... you will not catch up with me, right?"

At this point, her hand on the rock wall suddenly flashed with a strong electric current! The next moment, the rock wall cracked with the arc of electricity, and the small-scale collapse caused the falling rocks to directly bury the branch road in the cave. When the smoke and dust settled, Rita was left with only another passage that had not been destroyed...

In response to this, the girl with short brown hair sighed helplessly, put her sickle and carbon-based hunter into the terminal using the information-matter conversion technology, and walked slowly along another passage as if nothing had happened.

"This is really... Never mind. It doesn't matter what she wants to do now. Everything is already determined. This road should also lead to the center of the ruins. Let that person handle the matter of K424... With the cover of K424-01, this mission should be easy for her..."

On the high platform at the entrance to Jiuyou, as the strong golden light that spread out slowly extinguished, the huge stone gate that originally stood there had completely disappeared, and the surrounding terrain could no longer see any trace of its original shape...

On the uneven ground, a long smooth dent spread out from the entrance and extended directly to the edge of the platform. On the left side of the dent, a pale-faced girl covered her right shoulder and looked at the silver-haired girl in front of her at the starting point of the dent with astonishment.

"Huh...you! What on earth are you?!"

Latil exclaimed. After the golden beam of light flashed, her right arm that was affected by the light completely disappeared! All this happened in an instant, and she didn't even feel any pain...

The silver-haired girl on the other side looked at her silently, the wound on her chest still oozing blood. But she ignored her wound. Her turbid blue eyes with a slight golden tinge stared at Latil not far away.

"I don't know if your actions just now were of your own will... But I'm still a little angry... Don't worry, even so, I won't take your life, but I can't avoid the necessary lessons..."

As she spoke, she raised her blood-stained right hand, and a faint golden light appeared at her fingertips again.

Seeing this, Latil gritted her teeth and opened her eyes wide. Under the power of creation, her completely disappeared right arm quickly extended dense pink granulations, which quickly entangled together and quickly formed muscles and blood vessels. In just a moment, her right arm would be completely restored to its original state...

However, Kiana obviously didn't intend to give her this time.

Without any sign, the strong and fleeting golden light column appeared again, directly passing through the platform and sinking into the stone wall in the distance. Where the light column disappeared, a smooth circular pit was left behind, without any trace of the explosion, as if everything it hit was completely annihilated...

The next moment, as the girl's pupils shrank slightly, her body fell uncontrollably, and with blood gushing out after a delay of several seconds, her left leg was nowhere to be found!

“Eh…?!”

Unable to feel the existence of her left leg, the girl's expression became dull. She stared blankly at the silver-haired girl walking slowly not far away. The blood dripping from her chest left a trail of blood behind her. For the first time, Latier's eyes, which always carried bloodthirstiness and madness, showed an emotion called fear...

"You...don't come over here!"

She screamed in despair and stretched out her intact left hand! The next moment, overwhelming flames and electric currents roared and rushed towards the thin girl in front. However, as a layer of translucent golden film quietly emerged, all the energy disappeared on the surface of the film as if it was swallowed up, without causing any waves.

"how so......"
