K424 of the Collapse World

Claire confirmed again, and Lillian hummed slightly in response. Just as she curled up and slowly breathed a sigh of relief, a cold little hand suddenly placed on her forehead.

"Eh?!"

"The Honkai erosion rate has exceeded 60%, and the body has partially become a dead soldier. Lillian Joya, if this is considered okay, there wouldn't be so many Valkyries dying from the backlash of artificial stigmata."

Lillian's pupils shrank at the cold and childish voice. She raised her head subconsciously and met Ningdi's inorganic and indifferent gaze.

"Why... do you know my name?"

"That's nothing. I've heard of the famous betrayer team before. But seeing is believing. I thought the betrayer who alerted the headquarters would be a terrible strategist, but I didn't expect him to be such a naive guy..."

"...!"

Ningdi said calmly, ignoring the surprised looks of Lillian and the other girls, and ripped open the girl's collar without hesitation. The next moment, Lillian's slender neck with her collarbone exposed was exposed. Obviously, on the part above her chest, there were white spots all over it, which were still slowly spreading outwards...

"Isn't it? Naive guys like to show off their strength in vain. You should have realized your physical condition a long time ago, right? You deliberately concealed this condition. Are you thinking about the mission, or do you want to kill your comrades?"

Ningdi snorted coldly, as if realizing that he had said something unnecessary, and quickly turned away, once again moving away from the place where the girls were.

"Lillian, why are you..."

"I just... don't want to hold everyone back."

Hearing this, the girls looked at each other, and all looked at Lillian in the middle with complicated eyes, not knowing how to answer.

At this time, Shilis came over, looked at Lillian who was sitting in silence with her head down, and sighed.

"It was my negligence... The concentration of Honkai energy in Chiyou's body is quite high. Although the Valkyrie has artificial stigmata to resist Honkai, she will still be gradually eroded by the energy. Alas, I didn't even notice it in advance... What a dereliction of duty."

"Lady Shilis! I..."

"Let's not talk about this now, Lillian. Just be patient for a moment. I will completely suppress the Houkai energy that just seeped into your body..."

356 episode >>

As Shilis was about to activate her energy, she suddenly felt something and turned around quickly, looking at Ningdi who had appeared behind her at some point, her brows slightly frowned.

"What do you want to do, Valkyrie?"

"k424, you are now the main force to destroy Chiyou's core, and you should not consume extra energy for such things."

As she spoke, Ningdi raised her hand and threw a small syringe to Shiris.

"The β-21 inhibitor can suppress the corrosive reaction of Honkai energy at the cost of the Valkyrie's ability being ineffective. Although it is only temporary, this thing should be useful now."

"Why......?"

"I just consider completing the mission as my first goal. Other than that, I have no other thoughts."

Looking at the girl who turned and left, Shirley thought for a moment and then chuckled.

"Really? If that's the case...when you first noticed that Lillian was abnormal, couldn't you just keep silent? Why did you deliberately bring it up?"

Shilis's words with a smile made the petite figure pause for a moment. But the next moment, the girl turned her head slightly, with a hint of warning in her deep purple pupils.

"Stop talking nonsense...Experimental subject, this is our only cooperation. Don't ask about my affairs, otherwise..."

"hehe......"

Looking at the girl walking away quickly,

The corners of Hillis' mouth rose slightly, and she handed the syringe in her hand to Claire who was accompanying Lillian, then walked to the other end of the platform, stood on the edge of the cliff, and fell into deep thought again.

"Cough cough..."

Suddenly, when Shiris remained silent, a black-haired girl as petite as Ningdi came to her without hesitation and spoke to wake up the girl who was thinking with her head down.

"Silis Kaslana."

"...?"

Her thoughts were interrupted. Looking at the black-haired girl so close in front of her, Shilis tilted her head in confusion, but soon she clasped her hands and performed a traditional Shenzhou etiquette.

"Ms. Xuanyuan...what can I do for you?"

"No need to be so polite. You are not a descendant of the Shenzhou Continent, so there is no need to imitate these etiquettes. Haha... I should also change this ancient way of speaking."

Ji Xuanyuan's voice echoed clearly on the empty platform. After hearing it, Ning Di rolled her eyes and calmly pressed a button on the terminal.

"It doesn't matter..."

Hearing this, Shilis just smiled faintly.

"After all, no matter what, you are the first warrior in this world to fight against Honkai, and you are also one of the few people who have been deified in the traditional stories of Shenzhou. Even though I am not a descendant of Shenzhou, I still admire you very much..."

"Huh... don't mention those past events. To you, I am just a Valkyrie from the past. Those mythological stories about me were just made up by Danzhu based on the small battles we fought to expel demons... Please don't worry about them."

Ji Xuanyuan shook his head helplessly, looking at his empty hands, lost in thought for a moment, then raised his head, stared at the silver-haired girl who was a head taller than him, and asked about something he cared about the most.......

"Time is urgent, so I'll get straight to the point. According to Chi Yuan, you once held a fragment of my stigmata, and then passed it on to someone else... Can I meet the current holder of that stigmata fragment?"

Ji Xuanyuan said, with a hint of worry in his golden red pupils. If the girl in front of him got his stigmata because she was recognized by the fragment of his consciousness left in the stigmata, then there is no need to worry. However, is the other person who was handed over the stigmata by Shilis really qualified to be his successor?

"I'm sorry, Miss Xuanyuan. The person who inherited the stigma from me has just taken on another mission and is going to destroy the energy suppression point in Chi You's body. He probably won't be able to come back here for the time being... Is there something wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm just a little curious about what kind of person is the one who eventually inherited the stigmata... But it doesn't matter, it's not an important matter."

Ji Xuanyuan shook his head and said no more. Somewhat concerned about the black-haired girl's expression, Shilis was about to say something when Bronya's anxious voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Sister Shilis! Look up!"

Following Bronya's direction, he looked up and saw the turbid space above the stone platform slowly shattering like glass! This special space that was originally completely isolated from the outside world finally revealed its original appearance!

"The energy in Chiyou's body has weakened...! Does that mean that all the energy nodes have been destroyed?"

Claire looked at the energy detector in her hand and shouted in surprise. The concentration of Honkai energy in Chi You's body, which was almost undetectable, was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon dropped to a level that could be observed.

"I see... Is this the real seal? It's so grand, I can't believe it was made five thousand years ago..."

"hehe......"

Looking at the space that was constantly collapsing and cracking, Shilis couldn't help but sigh. Hearing this, Ji Xuanyuan smiled slightly, and without saying much, he glanced at the slowly cracking sky, then suddenly turned his head to the other side, his sharp eyes locked on Ningdi who was slightly stunned.

"What are you waiting for? Take action! Since you have the power to break the seal, now is the best chance!"

"Understood......"

The moment she heard this, she quickly came to her senses and rushed forward, holding the dark dagger in her hand. The moment she rushed to the edge of the platform, she jumped up as high as she could, stepped on the rock wall several times, and her figure appeared in front of the space full of cracks.

"I never thought that the ultimate move originally used to deal with K424 would be used in such a place... It doesn't matter, since it is the order of Lord Otto..."

The girl murmured softly, then suddenly opened her eyes!

"Judas's forgiveness...full power liberation!"

Instantly, the blood-red light dyed the surface of the black blade! The sharp blade broke through the air,

It was as if a blood-stained brush had painted across white paper, leaving an indelible dark red streak that fell on the barrier that was on the verge of breaking!

The next moment, the shattered crystals completely collapsed! As these spatial layers turned into sparkling particles and dispersed, the environment hidden in the surroundings began to gradually appear before the girls' eyes.

Behind the barrier was a platform made of dazzling golden crystals. On the crystal platform that emitted a faint golden glow, there was a huge purple crystal ball floating in the air. Under the surrounding golden light, it emitted a faint glow...

The core of Chi You was finally exposed to everyone at this moment.

357 The Second Commitment

The core of Chi You was a dark purple sphere with an estimated diameter of more than ten meters, floating in the upper space covered by the golden crystal layer. After the barrier that served as the seal was broken, there was no longer any barrier between it and the stone platform below.

This means that the attack from below can directly hit Chiyou's most fatal weakness.

"Finally... it's over! This damn monster!"

--boom!

Claire roared, and before she finished her words, she raised the Fire Fairy Type II pistol in her left hand, aimed at the Honkai Core above and pulled the trigger!

The fireball that exploded from the muzzle rose rapidly like fireworks, but before it touched the crystal ball in the sky, it was forcibly detonated by the high-concentration energy field outside the core, turning into a fireball and causing ripples in the outer circle of the energy layer.

"Damn it! Is this really a core with a built-in shield? If that's the case..."

"Don't waste your energy, Claire. Let's leave this kind of thing to professionals. Our mission is over."

Bronya glanced at Claire calmly and stood there motionless. The heavily armored Bunny 19c with powerful firepower was floating behind her at this moment, holding the unconscious Kiana in the right arm of the half-body mecha. Although the mecha was fully deployed, the girl had no intention of launching an attack on the Chiyou core.

As a killer, this meticulous girl could see the solemnity in the eyes of the "big guys" present. Therefore, after she stopped Claire from continuing to attack, she asked Xier to step forward and pulled her away from under the core.

"..."

At this moment, even though she could clearly see the existence of the core by looking up, Shilis did not immediately launch an attack. Unlike Fu Hua and Ji Xuanyuan, she was staring at the empty rock wall on the side of the core, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

After the crystals completely disappeared, not only the energy fluctuations of Chiyou's core, but also some of the energy that seeped in from the outside world became more and more perceptible. At this time, she clearly sensed where the source of those strange energy of the Herrscher of Death came from...

(It could be Hill?! But why would she release such power? Oh, right! Speaking of which, Yulandel is also outside. The Herrscher of Death core in the Black Abyss White Flower should be Hill's. Could something have happened between them?)

"What's wrong, Shirley? Our current goal... should be to completely destroy this thing, right? Excuse me, is there any problem?"

Fu Hua said as she took a step forward and looked up at the huge purple core above. This broken crystal that exuded a certain ominous aura made her feel a little upset for some reason. Although it was an enemy she had faced before, Chi You at this moment gave her a strange feeling. She could not remember the memory of facing Chi You's core at all.

"No...it's not that there's a problem, it's just..."

Shirley shook her head, cleared the distracting thoughts from her mind, looked at the powerful energy crystal that was "tempting" to the Herrscher, and sighed.

"The Destiny Organization and the Anti-Entropy Organization, the conservatives and radicals of Anti-Entropy, have temporarily united because of the threat of this monster. However, will these parties really work together without reservation? I am a little worried... After all, those guys are not kind people. It is really hard to imagine that they would mobilize so many forces to protect Shenzhou, an irrelevant place."

"Siris..."

"Don't worry, maybe I'm just overthinking it. The most important thing now is to solve the problem of Chiyou. I know this very well, so...it's okay."

After temporarily dispelling Fu Hua's worries, Shilis raised her head again and locked her eyes on the target of her trip - the Chiyou core.

"So that's how it is... No wonder it can drive such a huge body. There is no doubt that the energy intensity of Chiyou's Honkai Core has completely exceeded the 'Herrser level' determined by human technology. If this energy can be utilized 100%, it will not be a problem to destroy most of the Eurasian continent in one blow. Even if it is a so-called 'planetary Honkai beast', it is not an exaggeration at all..."

"Well~~ That being said, the energy utilization rate of this planetary defective is less than 10%. And it seems that its actions are just based on instinct to destroy civilization, even the most basic

I don’t even have the ability to think.”

At this moment, a childish voice suddenly rang in Shilis's ears. The girl was stunned for a moment, and then she immediately identified the owner of the voice.

"Theresa...? It turns out that you were the one spying on me. I thought it was some cuckolded blond pervert..."

Shirley smiled reluctantly, with a flash of discomfort in her eyes. After all, she had just damaged Judas, and now she saw the original owner. Although Theresa probably didn't know yet, she was still a little embarrassed.

At this moment, on the battlefield outside Chi You's body, Theresa faced the hordes of fierce warriors, still using the standard spear in her hand to parry the attacks of sickles and claws with ease. The tip of the spear sometimes pointed out as swiftly as a spirit snake, piercing the heads of the warriors in an instant, steadily reducing the number of enemies...

Even so, it was still not an intense battle for Theresa. While dealing with the assassins and the Honkai beasts, she still had time to monitor the condition of Chiyou's body with the help of the photon eyepiece.

"I'm sorry. I guess Grandpa is watching too. Well, without further ado, it seems that you have successfully broken the seal of Chiyou. In that case, what are you still standing there for? Then quickly find a way to blow up its core. In this way, this crisis will be over..."

"You are just like a casual player, Theresa! Without seeing this thing with your own eyes, you can't imagine how strong its energy is! If you destroy something like this carelessly, if the Honkai energy inside leaks out, it will inevitably become the opportunity to trigger the next sequence collapse! Is this really a good idea?!"

She asked back bluntly, without listening to Theresa's rebuttal, and took out the communicator and threw it to Xier beside her.

She raised her right hand and slowly opened it. The golden light flickered slightly at her fingertips, but it never condensed. Shilis knew very well that she was indeed capable of detonating the core, but solving Chiyou's crisis in this way would likely cause even greater troubles in the future...

"Hey! Xuanyuan! You...?!"

Suddenly, hearing Fu Hua's surprised voice, Shiris turned her head and saw the petite black-haired girl kneeling on the ground with her teeth clenched. The black mist formed by the special Honkai energy appeared around her again!

"Don't come near me! Ahem... After the seal is lifted, Chiyou's energy will directly affect me... The overflowing energy is enough to make me lose control and go crazy. If this continues... I'm afraid I will soon become a collapsed puppet."

Stopping Fu Hua who was about to rush forward, Ji Xuanyuan opened his red eyes which had become eerie due to the erosion of Honkai, but his expression turned bitter.

"As expected... In the end, I, as the seal itself, will become the ultimate obstacle to the destruction of Chiyou... But fortunately, thanks to you for purifying the corrosive energy for me just now, I will not be lost in these energies immediately..."

Looking at the surprised Shirley, the girl just smiled faintly. Even though the strange red light in her pupils became stronger and stronger, her expression was still calm and peaceful.

357 The second promise >>

"Miss Xuanyuan! I will help you get rid of these immediately..."

Shirley hurried over and put her hand on the black-haired girl's shoulder, just as she was about to eliminate the corrosive energy in her body as before. But Ji Xuanyuan suddenly took a step back and slapped Shirley's hand away.

"What are you...?"

"Don't do anything unnecessary! As long as I am directly exposed to the Honkai Core, its erosion of me cannot be eliminated by external influences! Moreover, there is no need for you to waste your strength on such a meaningless thing! I will be controlled soon, Silis Kaslana, if you really want to help me, before I completely lose my mind, destroy my body, and then find a way to get rid of this monster that endangers the world! This is my last request... Promise me, okay?"

"..."

Hearing this, Shirley looked at the increasing black mist on the girl again, with reluctance in her eyes. Although it was only pure Honkai energy with corrosive properties, Shirley herself did not dare to absorb such a huge amount. She felt that her body probably could not withstand such a huge amount of energy. Even if she relied on the power of the Ruler of Constraint to suppress it, the excess energy might awaken the consciousness of a certain existence hidden in her body.

"Hmm?! Wait..."

Suddenly, she caught sight of the golden cross not far behind her, and her eyes moved. The next moment, a crazy idea came to her mind...

(Although it has lost its core that provides energy, the Key of God itself exists as a carrier of the Herrscher's core. Moreover, it is the eleventh Key of God that specializes in suppressing energy. So, since it has lost its original power, it seems worth a try...)

Seeing that Shilis didn't go towards the Honkai Crystal
