K424 of the Collapse World

"How arrogant... Ha!

Don't you know the reason for doing this? It's all because of you that my arms are like this!"

"Do you really think I did that?"

With that mentioned, Shilis also remembered that inexplicable incident. However, looking at Weisen's cold eyes with strong malice, she really didn't think that this guy made such a decision just for this incident...

"Who else could it be? You don't even dare to admit what you did... But, whether it was you or not, it doesn't matter now. Just because you plundered my research results, you can forget about leaving this institute!"

"Plundering research results? Ah... Do you think that Wendy's awakening of abilities is all your credit?"

Shirley rubbed her temples, looking a bit wry. She thought there was some hidden secret behind Weisen, but who knew that this man's purpose was simply to fight for these false names?

"Don't think that just because you are the Valkyrie of the headquarters, you can bully us here! Since you are so greedy, not only do you want to take away the credit for the research results, but you also want to kill me, then prepare to face the judgment of justice!"

So superficial...it seems that he is just a pawn.

At this time, the surrounding mechanical cabins slowly opened, and dense black figures slowly poured out from these hatches, surrounding the desk in the center of the empty room.

The basic humanoid machine was equipped with sharp arms made of blades. Shiris was no stranger to these things.

"Nightmare module? Haha... I see. As a scientific researcher, you don't have the power to deploy the Valkyries, so you found these machines as combat power?"

"Hmph! Even if you are an S-class Valkyrie, without the power of armor, you will definitely lose in the face of these killing machines! Hahahaha... Let me think about it. During the contact between the S-class Valkyrie Shirley and the host of the Desire Gem, due to improper experimental operation, the Herrscher core went out of control. Shirley was unfortunately killed by the runaway Fourth Herrscher. Later, with the efforts of the New Zealand laboratory staff, the runaway Herrscher was suppressed, and the world's first successful artificial Herrscher was produced. Miss Shirley, what do you think of this script?"

As Weisen said this, he quickly ran away from the chair, ignoring the female subordinate who fell on the table, and hid himself among the nightmare modules.

Looking at the ferocious-looking Visen, Shiris lost interest in continuing the conversation with this man. Looking at the nightmare modules that were gradually closing in under the annihilation order, she began to think about how to deal with the current situation.

Nightmare modules, to put it nicely, are general-purpose mechas that can defend against secondary Honkai creatures in the rear battlefield, but to put it bluntly, they are cannon fodder on the battlefield. Although the energy cutting blades they carry can cause damage to the armor of Honkai beasts, their stiff movements and slow speed are their biggest flaws. Compared to their insignificant attack power, their main use is to attract firepower and create a one-hit kill opportunity for the Valkyrie.

To be honest, even these lowest-level combat mechas can be dismantled into parts that can only be sold as scrap metal with just one hand. However, it is really too shocking for her to do such an unscientific thing as tearing a mecha apart with bare hands without any armor.

Shiris could see that her method of hiding her strength was perfect. Everyone in the Oceania branch still had the impression of her as an "ordinary S-class Valkyrie" and had not discovered her identity as a Herrscher at all. Based on this, she needed to think carefully about how to deal with the current situation.

It is not a wise move to expose your information to other beings in the dark just to deal with a small fry like Visen.

In that case, let’s use the Valkyrie’s methods to deal with him!

"You know what, Dr. Weisen? You just said that the power of the Valkyrie comes from the armor? Actually, this concept is wrong."

"..."

"Although I am not an ordinary Valkyrie, ordinary Valkyries will not become stronger just because of their powerful armor! It is true that armor can enhance the combat capability of a Valkyrie, but the true power of a Valkyrie actually comes from herself. Armor is just the icing on the cake after all."

Faced with the mechas that were slowly closing in, Shiris jumped off the table lightly, looked at Weisen who looked disapproving, and slowly picked up her terminal.

"But while armor isn't necessary, when did I ever tell you that I didn't carry my own?"

The blue light of quantum energy quietly lit up, and the quantized matter that came into contact with the observation system shifted appeared with these brilliant lights. In an instant, the girl's women's suit was replaced by a blue-black mechanical armor, and the flying silver hair was gathered by the headphone-shaped head armor, and a photon eyepiece appeared in front of the bright blue pupil.

The tactical armor that had not been used for a long time since the Herrscher core was obtained was now reconstructed by Shiris!

The next moment, the remaining structural light completely gathered in the girl's right hand and slowly extended out. As it dissipated, the huge black lance was firmly held in the girl's hand.

Alloy Black Abyss White Flower, Shiris's first weapon.

She held the giant weapon, which was taller than her, in her hand, but she did not feel the slightest bit of heaviness, as if there was nothing in her hand. However, the whirring sound caused by the lance sweeping through the air revealed the terrifying weight of the weapon.

In a flash, the fully armed girl swung her lance and pointed it at the dull-eyed Weisen.

"Although it doesn't match my usual fighting style, it's a rare opportunity, so I'll let you see it... the power of an S-rank Valkyrie!"

461 Before the Truth

From the very beginning, there was no suspense in this battle.

Just as Hillis had expected, these nightmare modules, which were controlled by a simple computing system and operated by a basic logic system, would just rush over blindly like zombies, swinging or stabbing their blade-like arms at the target. It must be said that this kind of combat behavior was somewhat similar to those of the low-level dead soldiers.

After Weisen issued the kill order, the mecha closest to the center of the encirclement immediately rushed forward. In their logic system, they launched an attack on the target within five meters, and naturally adopted the combat action of charging and stabbing. In an instant, dozens of mechas in the inner circle made the same action at the same time, raising their blade-like arms and charging towards the girl in the center of the encirclement!

Looking at these simple mechas that were gleaming with a faint blue light, Shilis was also quite moved. Through her early basic knowledge learning in Anti-Entropy, she was very familiar with the structure and action rules of this kind of mecha, and she had the honor of dealing with these things.

When she escaped from the Destiny Laboratory, she was able to fight her way out of the nightmare module troops at the Destiny Headquarters with her weak body. She was able to do such a thing at that time, but if she were in her peak state now, it would probably not even be considered a joke.

——Shua...

The two-meter-long lance swept through the air with a bang, and the decomposition current attached to the lance burst into a blue arc of light! The nightmare module in front was torn to pieces by the flashing arc of the lance before it could get close to the girl. In the astonished eyes of Weisen who still couldn't recover, Shilis waved it lightly, and destroyed all the mechas in the fan-shaped range in front!

Without any pause, after clearing the front with the lance, the huge lance in the girl's hand suddenly separated from the corners, turning into six thick black blades, which danced under the traction of the electric current and twisted into the mecha troops behind the girl like a crusher, leaving a piece of wreckage in the fire and lightning.

The metal blade that made up the gun body separated from the lance, and the blue long sword hidden underneath appeared. Holding this sharp blade driven by super electromagnetic energy, the girl rushed directly into the array of mechas. This sharp blade, which was almost as long as the lance, had an attack range that was more than double that of the nightmare module. Coupled with the girl's own speed and reaction ability, these clumsy mechas would be cut by the blade to the point of being unable to move before they got close...

The blade of the long sword was filled with the decomposition current of Shiris's ability as the Herrscher of Thunder. She could tear through the metal as easily as cutting tofu without exerting any strength.

Outside the encirclement of the nightmare module, Vissen looked at the silver-haired girl who was surrounded by the mecha like a real "Valkyrie" and was in no man's land. Cold sweat gradually seeped out of his forehead.

This is totally different from what was expected! The reason why Visen dared to attack the S-class Valkyrie was because the girl's Valkyrie armor was not with her. Moreover, didn't she just say that she was not wearing her own armor? But now...

Having a Valkyrie means she can perform at her peak strength.

"You despicable fellow! You actually lied to me...!"

As the number of nightmare modules, which he regarded as his trump card, decreased sharply, the panic on the man's face began to become unconcealable. But now, he had completely torn his face with Shilis, and there was no chance to repair the relationship between the two.

Walking among the mechas like a leisurely stroll in the garden, the blue arc spread outward with the flickering sword blade, cutting off everything in front of it like a sword. This battle that was not really a battle made Shiris feel more and more bored. If she used the power of Honkai, it would be enough to clear the field from the very beginning...

"The game is over, Dr. Wesson."

The separated blades merged back into a lance. Shiris swung her hand and stabbed to the side and back. The glowing tip of the lance pierced through the last nightmare module and threw it in front of Visen.

The hundreds of nightmare modules that had occupied most of the space just now had now turned into broken parts covering the ground.

If I sell it as scrap metal, it shouldn't be a problem to sell it for a few thousand dollars, right?

Shiris thought casually, kicked away the half piece of machinery that was blocking her way, and turned her gaze to the mastermind of all this.

"You want to use these scraps to deal with an S-class Valkyrie? You're really a clever old man... Let alone me, even if it's an A-class Valkyrie, she can handle it easily, right? Speaking of which, the nightmare module seemed to be a sandbag made for the training of Valkyries in the earliest times..."

Slowly walk towards this unconscious, 3

,8!:9?;! The man leaning against the wall, Shirley loosened her hand, and the fallen lance automatically turned into blue particles and dissipated. When Weisen saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment, and the next moment he seemed to suddenly think of something and opened his eyes wide.

"Wait! Isn't this... isn't this the quantum technology of Anti-Entropy? I remember now! With the material information technology of Destiny, it can only transmit the specially constructed Valkyrie armor. This kind of heavy weapon cannot be reconstructed! So that's it, traitor of Destiny! I have found evidence of your collusion with Anti-Entropy..."

"Oh?"

Suddenly hearing these words, a malicious smile appeared on Shirley's face. She raised her arm, and a wrist blade popped out from the armor on her forearm. In the flickering light between the gaps in the metal armor, the slightly ferocious blade was aimed at the man's cheek.

"Now that you've discovered my secret, do you think... you can still walk out of this door?"

“You, you…!”

As the silver-haired girl's temperament suddenly changed, Weisen couldn't say a word for a while. Looking at the blade slowly approaching in the girl's hand, his breathing gradually became rapid, and he felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest...

"Pfft~"

The next moment, the girl suddenly laughed, raised her wrist blade, and gently tapped Weisen's cheek with the blade.

"Relax, Dr. Wesson, it's just a joke."

"..."

Shiris put away her wrist blade, and while Visen looked puzzled, she raised her hand and patted his shoulder.

"Colluding with Anti-Entropy? Haha... Doctor, times have changed. You probably haven't received the news yet. The Destiny Organization has temporarily allied with Anti-Entropy, and the two sides have also conducted technical exchanges. It's only natural that I can use Anti-Entropy's quantum technology, right?"

"Well...?"

Seeing the silver-haired girl suddenly showing a kind smile, Weisen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and his rapid heartbeat gradually calmed down. Just as he was thinking whether he should respond with a smile to the girl in front of him, what happened the next moment made his slightly relaxed expression twitch suddenly...

“Aaaaaa——!”

"But I'm sorry~ Dr. Weisen. Although the so-called collusion with Anti-Entropy is just a misunderstanding, it doesn't mean that I won't pursue what you did just now..."

As the girl sneered, she suddenly exerted force on the palm of her hand on Weisen's shoulder, crushing the connection of Weisen's mechanical arm! The mechanical tube connected to the flesh and nerves was directly torn off, and the mechanical joint mixed with blood and skin tissue was also crushed. The girl pulled casually, tearing the granulation of flesh that was connected to the mechanical arm and Weisen's shoulder, and completely pulled his mechanical arm off!

461 Before the Truth>>

“Ugh! You…you actually…! Ugh…”

The flesh on his shoulder was completely torn apart, and the pain was no less than the feeling of having his arm torn off before. However, this time, what puzzled Weisen was that he did not faint from the pain like last time, but remained absolutely awake in an abnormal electric shock, and was forced to completely endure the severe pain...

"You dare to openly attack the commissioner of the headquarters? You are very brave... Although I personally don't want to communicate with a mentally retarded minion like you, I still need to tell you that it is important to keep your mental state stable to see whether the receptors of the Herrscher Core can withstand the erosion of the mind by the Honkai. But what did you do? Just based on the illegal experiments you conducted on Wendy, let alone freezing your research project, even if I shot you dead on the first day you came here, Otto would not hold me responsible!"

Looking at Visen who was covering his wound and howling in pain at his feet, Shirley said expressionlessly, reached out and grabbed the man's collar, turned around and threw him towards the metal chair.

"However, I am still a little curious. Anyone with a little bit of common sense would not think that I was the one who did the attack. And if you are just trying to steal the research results, your desperate behavior is a bit too stupid. Tell me, why do you want the honor of gem research so much?"

Weisen, who had been knocked unconscious by the heavy collision on the chair, had not yet recovered when the girl's voice rang out from behind him. The next moment, as the chair he had knocked crooked was gently straightened, the girl's palm, wearing a tactical glove, was placed above his head.

"..."

She made this move, but of course, she didn't mean to touch his head. While Weisen was still in great pain and in a trance, a blue arc suddenly lit up, and an extremely strong electric current suddenly released from Silis's palm, penetrating his whole body...

“Aaaaaaaa——!”

Controlling the amount of current to a level that would not cause death, Shilis directly gave the doctor an electric shock, or electrotherapy. She didn't want to use the power of creation on such a guy, so after paralyzing the body, perhaps the pain of the broken arm would also be alleviated. In this way, the doctor could answer her question, right?

"This is just my curiosity. It's not information I must know. It's up to you whether to tell me or not. However, if you

If you don't even tell me these, you are completely worthless~ Then, what should we do with a greedy attacker like you? It's okay to just roast him with a million volts, right? "

"Uh uh... No! No no no, I... I'll tell you everything I know, please spare my life...!"

Weisen was trembling all over, not knowing whether it was because of fear or because he had not yet recovered from the electric shock. However, looking at the man's frustrated eyes, Shilis nodded with satisfaction. Looking at him like this, he probably didn't dare to lie.

"Very good, do you remember the question from before? You actually want to kill me for a mere research honor. This is like robbing a police officer for twenty dollars. It's stupid as hell. Are you really such a fool, or is there something else going on?"

"No, no! Although I did this for the sake of research results, you don't know that the honor of researching gemstones is far more valuable to me than twenty dollars can measure..."

"Idiot! I know! That statement was just an analogy. The consequences of attacking me are far more serious than attacking a police officer. Do you understand?"

Shilis frowned, and suddenly wondered if this Weisen was really mentally ill. In that case, she would help him get better.

Sizzle...

Once again, the Houkai energy was released in the form of electric current, and the electric current of the level of electric shock covered Weisen's body. A trembling scream resounded throughout the laboratory.

"Ahhh...! I understand! I understand! That's not what I meant. What I really want is not the research results and the subsequent glory, but the title of senior researcher! In fact, although this New Zealand research institute is nominally under my control, the control is actually not in my hands at all. If I can't produce results in my research on the gems I desire, I will be..."

Sizzle...!

As he was speaking, suddenly another strong electric current hit his body, forcing Weisen to shut his mouth in a convulsion. He was a little confused. He was clearly explaining the reason seriously, why was he punished again?

"Stop for a moment. I suddenly remembered that I have some things to deal with. Why not take advantage of today to get them all done at once?"

(Asshole...! If you want to pause, you can just interrupt me, why do you have to click? Damn bitch...)

Still trembling, Weisen turned his head with all his strength, looking at the silver-haired girl with the corner of his eyes, thinking angrily. But Silis didn't care what Weisen would think. She turned around, walked quickly to the exit of the laboratory, and suddenly opened the metal door. A young woman with a slightly panicked expression appeared behind the door...

“Eh?! Lady Shi-Shiris? How could you…?”

"Come in, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly, don't follow me in such a roundabout way."

Looking at the woman in front of her who was dressed in a researcher's uniform and was about the same height as herself, Shirley's eyes showed a little strangeness, but she still spoke in a serious tone as if nothing had happened, as if the blue-black armor on Shirley's body did not exist.

"My name is Christina. I wonder if Lady Cialis still remembers me... I came here this time to assist you under the order of Lady Caroline, but now it seems that there is really no need for this..."

"Assist me? Haha... I see. It seems that everything that happened here today was probably under the surveillance of Ms. Caroline, right?"

"That's not entirely true. Lady Caroline just discovered that Dr. Wesen wanted to meet you and suspected that he had ill intentions, so she sent her subordinates to investigate the situation here and confirm whether Lady Shilis is safe."

The woman said respectfully, ignoring the mecha wreckage and miserable-looking Visen behind the metal door. Shilis narrowed her eyes and looked at the specialized Honkai isolation suit that was vaguely visible under the woman's coat.

"Well, as you can see, this kind of villain can't hurt me. But before that, I have a small question..."

462Reason

After spending more than a month at the research institute in New Zealand, even though Hillis didn't often interact with the locals, she could still basically call out the names of these researchers who she saw every day, especially some of the more "special" ones...

The young woman standing in front of her had an unknown last name, but Shilis remembered it clearly. This female researcher named Christina should be one of the staff members of the institute where Weisen belonged. But now, she appeared in front of her as Caroline's subordinate.

Miss Christina has orange hair and brown pupils. She is wearing a tight-fitting operating suit that is easy to move in, a jacket on the outside, half-finger black tactical gloves on her hands, and a scarf around her neck.

In addition, her rosy lips and charming upturned eyeliner were obviously drawn with heavy makeup. Her current image was completely different from that of an ordinary researcher.

However, Shilis was not surprised by these. As mentioned before, she had been paying attention to this "special" woman for a long time.

"Ms. Christina, did Ms. Caroline say anything other than asking you to monitor the situation here?"

Shirley asked calmly, her eyes inadvertently looking towards the corner of the laboratory. She was extremely sensitive to being watched by others, and she felt more than one surveillance gaze from those dim corners.

There are a lot of surveillance cameras in this room.

"Well... my job is just to confirm Lady Shirley's safety and provide support when necessary. Other than that... Speaking of which, Lady Shirley's insight is really not to be underestimated. She can hear my footsteps even through such a thick metal door..."

Hearing this, the woman scratched the back of her head and replied with a subtle expression. She completely ignored Visen, who was slumped in a chair and twitching slightly not far away. It was obvious that in Visen's experimental team, her role should be the monitor arranged by the higher-ups.
