K424 of the Collapse World

"Claire... is in that village... but there is no communication signal in that area..."

"..."

No signal means no way to contact her. On the communication video, Claudia fell silent. She knew what this situation meant.

"Lillian, the area you are in is far enough away from that village that you shouldn't be affected by the explosion."

"But Claire..."

"I won't let her die."

With just these words, the image in front of Lillian suddenly disappeared. Apparently, the communication had been cut off by Claudia.

Lillian was stunned. She didn't expect that the cold boss would do such a thing.

"But...if it's Colonel Claudia, then it will be fine..."

Thinking of this, the girl breathed a sigh of relief, and her nervous heart relaxed. Thinking of that cute and cheerful companion, Lillian smiled.

"Silly Claire... If everything goes well this time, you must thank Miss Claudia..."

The fire in the village has been completely extinguished, leaving only piles of smoky ruins and ashes, among which there are many charred corpses.

This village has basically fallen into complete silence. Except for one place...

--boom!

As the two weapons collided, air waves exploded in all directions, the ground was torn apart, and gravel flew out. The figure holding the huge sickle was thrown backwards in a panic. While in the air, she chopped the sickle into the ground, barely stopping her retreat.

“Ugh… ahem…! Damn it…! What the hell is going on?!”

Ai Miye coughed up black blood and shouted in horror, his eyes full of disbelief.

On the other side, a petite figure was also blown away by the blast and smashed into the ruins of a house, raising a cloud of dust! But soon, the figure slowly walked out of the ruins, but compared to Aimiye's embarrassment, she didn't look injured at all.

The figure in the smoke and dust raised one hand and suddenly waved it in the air. The air between his fingers seemed to be twisted. Obviously, this speed had broken the sound barrier! Accompanied by a short sonic boom, the blast swept away the smoke and dust around, revealing the figure of the girl standing behind him.

This girl was naturally Lan Feng. After imitating the way of the dead warriors and condensing the Honkai energy in her body, as expected, her physique underwent some changes, so that she could fight against the dead warrior girl head-on...

However, there was something wrong with the way she looked now.

The Honkai energy filled her body, and would leak out from time to time, forming purple light spots that glowed like stars, floating near her. And... her long silver hair, like the moonlight, was dyed purple by the small amount of Honkai energy that leaked out! Even her eyes, the pair of clear blue pupils, turned into a weird purple...

Actually... Lan Feng didn't feel good. This kind of Honkai energy was integrated into the blood and flowed through the blood vessels throughout the body. Lan Feng felt as if the blood vessels in her body were about to burst. She felt the pain that she had not felt since she had Honkai energy...

(In this state... the strength of the body is greatly enhanced, but it requires distraction to control the flow of Honkai energy... Now I even

Unable to form Houkai crystals further outside the body... However, this state is just right for dealing with that guy!)

Lan Feng clenched the pulse dagger in his hand, and the next moment, the blade was filled with a bright red light, and the pulse weapon's short-term overclocking had been unlocked. In the face of the terrified expression of the dead girl, Lan Feng stepped hard and sprinted forward, and the whole person turned into a purple stream of light, raising the red-glowing sharp blade in his hand high...

This battle will end soon...

045 Narrow Victory

Aimiye is an ordinary girl living in a small village. She has loving parents and three lovely brothers and sisters. She leads a warm and peaceful life. If nothing unexpected happens, she will marry the hunting-loving young man from the same village in the future. He is her childhood sweetheart whom she has secretly loved for a long time. Then, she will continue her happy and ordinary life.

However, nothing in the world goes smoothly. In a blink of an eye, disaster befell this small village...

The second collapse...

The rampant Honkai creatures attacked the small village surrounded by mountains without any surprise. Most of the people in the village died in the disaster, including Amy's parents, the young man she had a crush on, and her younger brother and sister...

Why am I the only one who survived?

After that, she thought about this question more than once. Under the leadership of a middle-aged man, the survivors began a long exile. Finally, they settled in an abandoned town in Ukraine.

Aimiye, who became lonely, got a house to live in again. But it was just a house, not a home...

Aimiye often stares blankly by herself, and her pupils have long been gray. Although she often acts arrogant in front of her fellow villagers, it is just a disguise. She doesn't want others to know her past...

She originally thought that she would end her meaningless life in her attachment to her relatives, until she accidentally got the crystal.

She did not resist the erosion of Honkai, and even regarded Honkai's will as an oracle. This girl found that her life once again had meaning...

I am not alone yet... Yes, God still needs me, I am still useful, and my life still has meaning...!

"So... don't try to stop me from completing the oracle, you bastard!!"

--when! !

Waving the sickle to shake off the devilish purple girl, Amy Yefangqun: 3Fo fell into madness, followed closely, and launched a tidal attack on the girl without regard for the consequences!

However, on the other side, Lan Feng used her dagger to block her attack casually. These high-speed slashes that she couldn't see before, in Lan Feng's eyes now, can easily figure out their trajectory, and then swing the blade at a faster speed to deflect them. It's not that her combat awareness has increased, but because she has a speed and strength far beyond her opponent.

In her current state, even though she lacks combat experience, her rapidly increased physical fitness alone is enough to suppress this special sickle warrior in front of her.

"I see... You are also a person with obsessions..."

Lan Feng muttered to himself, and after blocking the sickle of the death girl again, he did not let her retract it, but directly stretched out his other hand and grasped the blade of the sickle!

Lan Feng formed a thin film of tiny collapsed crystals on his palm, firmly grasping the sharp blade. The dead girl wanted to retract the sickle, but was shocked to find that she could not shake Lan Feng's thin arm with her own strength...

"No wonder... you have a strength far beyond that of ordinary warriors, so that you were able to completely suppress me in the beginning..."

The birth of a Herrscher is a manifestation of Honkai, so only one Herrscher will be born in one Honkai. When a creature is infected with Honkai, it will become a dead soldier or a Honkai beast. However, under certain special circumstances, there will be individuals with Honkai that can approach the Herrscher.

Their power is far greater than that of Honkai beasts and death warriors. They are close to Herrschers but do not have the Herrscher core. They are called "Pseudo-Hersherrs". People who come into contact with high concentrations of Honkai energy may also become Pseudo-Hersherrs.

Pseudo-hermeneutics often possess strong wills or obsessions that cannot be given up, which prevents them from becoming dead soldiers but instead makes them even more powerful.

Ai Miye in front of Lan Feng was obviously such a pseudo-herrscher. She had just been infected, but she already had such a powerful strength. If she was given enough time to get familiar with her own power, she would probably become an extremely terrifying existence...

"But unfortunately... I'm not in the mood to know your story. When I know that you spread Houkai throughout this village, there will be no possibility for us to talk."

As Lan Feng spoke, she narrowed her dark purple eyes slightly, with a cold look in her eyes.

"In my eyes, people like you...will only bring greater disasters to this world. Speaking of which...I once promised someone that I would do my best to protect this world...So, I will completely destroy you here."

"Eliminate me...? You can't do that!!"

Ai Miye screamed and swung the sickle in his hand vigorously, hitting Lan Feng who was holding the sickle blade.

The purple hair fluttered in the wind as Lan Feng was lifted into the air by the sickle. She was indeed unable to shake Lan Feng's strength, but Lan Feng's petite body weight could still be easily thrown into the air...

Seeing that Lan Feng didn't let go of the sickle blade, Ai Miye gritted his teeth and exerted force again. The sickle drew a large arc and landed heavily on the ground behind him. The huge force directly smashed the ground! Amid the flying rocks, Ai Miye turned around and swung the sickle again, slashing at that position!

The high-speed scythe only scratched the soil, leaving a deep scratch, and didn't hit anything else. Ai Miye's eyes widened;?;, in her impression, Lan Feng, who should have been smashed to the ground, didn't appear there!

————!

Ai Miye was stunned for just a moment, and then immediately felt a biting chill!

“Could it be…?!”

She looked up in astonishment, but only saw the flash of the sharp blade...

- Swish!

The light falling like the Milky Way cut through the night sky.

The silver-white blade left a black blood mark on the girl's body, from her shoulder to her waist, tearing her body apart! Leaving a huge wound! The blade left, and dirty black blood gushed out from the girl's wound!

When Lan Feng was lifted up by the sickle, she let go of her hands in the air, letting the huge force throw her into the sky. Then, using the acceleration brought by the fall, she severely injured the death warrior holding the sickle with just one blow...

The attack hit the target immediately, and Lan Feng pulled back the next moment, easily avoiding the sickle of Ai Miye's counterattack.

"Hiss... ah!!"

Ai Miye screamed. Lan Feng's deep blow even broke several of her ribs. She glared at the purple-haired girl in front of her, her eyes full of hatred...

"You guy...!!"

Black blood continued to flow out, forming a pool of blood under Amy's body. But her wounds were still oozing out the dirty black blood, and it seemed that there was no sign of stopping...

"For the sake of God... a traitor like you... I must...!!"

045 narrow victory>>

Her voice had begun to become intermittent, and her body could not stop shaking, looking like she would fall down at any moment. However, Lan Feng did not dare to let her guard down. She could feel that the collapse energy in the body of this dead girl was constantly being extracted and forcibly compressed in her body.

"Traitor? Then... as a former human, you are also a traitor to humanity, right? Miss Divine Envoy!"

(I don't know what she wants to do... but it seems a little dangerous!)

Lan Feng spoke calmly, but secretly he was on high alert. For some reason, the enemy in front of him, who was on the verge of death, became more and more dangerous in his eyes.

(A counterattack before death...)

Lan Feng stared at the enemy in front of him, and as he was thinking, his pupils suddenly shrank!

——!

The next moment! Lan Feng turned around very quickly and slashed horizontally with his backhand! With the sound of a sharp object tearing the body apart, the dead man with his neck completely severed fell down. At the moment when his body lost its support and fell sideways, Lan Feng suddenly felt a huge sense of crisis coming from behind...!

(trap……?!)

The moment Lan Feng turned around, he saw a red light slowly expanding in front of him...

Aimiye's sickle had turned red at some point! She released all the compressed energy in her body at once and rushed towards Lan Feng, ignoring the fact that her wounds were torn apart again at high speed, vowing to kill Lan Feng right here!

Just now, she caught the flaw that Lan Feng showed when he was attacked by the assassins, and approached Lan Feng at once! Looking at the girl's eyes that were slightly widened due to astonishment, she couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement...

This guy who prevented me from delivering the oracle...! He must die here!

Just a little closer... just a little closer... and I can...!

--puff……!

(Kill her...)

Immersed in the pleasure of killing a powerful enemy, Aimiye did not realize that his mind had completely stagnated...

A long and narrow translucent purple crystal spear extended forward from Lan Feng's hand.

Then, it disappeared from Aimiye's forehead and "grew" out from the back of her head. The tip of the crystal was crystal clear, reflecting a faint purple fluorescence under the moonlight...

Because the piercing speed was so fast, the spear made of crystals was not stained with a single drop of blood...

Lan Feng's eyes wavered slightly, and he looked at the huge sickle blade resting on his shoulder with lingering fear. There was no doubt that if this attack hit him completely, he would be completely cut in two. At that time, even if he didn't die directly, he would be close to death.

However, her opponent no longer had the chance to launch such a strike again.

Under the control of her mind, the crystal spear that had just condensed in an instant turned into light particles and dissipated. The body of the dead girl lost its support point and fell down helplessly. The pitch-black giant sickle also turned into black mist and slowly drifted away with the wind.

Lan Feng looked at her hands. In her current state, it was difficult for her to generate a collapse crystal further outside her body, but if she generated it in her hands and then extended it outward, it was completely possible.

Just now, when the death warrior girl suddenly attacked, she did this. She condensed the crystal spear and stabbed it outwards at the same time!

In fact, in such a hurry, the strength she exerted was not great, just enough to stretch out her hand. However, she let the high-speed charging girl hit the crystal spear in her hand and pierced her head directly.

"Anyway, I won..."

While panting, Lan Feng suddenly half-knelt down. After relaxing her mind, the dizziness from blood loss and the fatigue from fighting burst out at the same time, making her feel black in front of her eyes, and she wanted to fall asleep like this...

"No... We have to find the survivors and eliminate the remaining assassins. There must be some living people in this place..."

Forcing herself to support herself, she stood up shakily. The girl's long hair, which had been dyed purple by the overflowing Honkai energy, turned back to silver again. Her eyes, which had turned back to blue, were filled with fatigue.

Suddenly she remembered something and looked at herself. The ragged white coat had almost become rags, hanging on her body, revealing a large area of ​​white skin covered with scars. Obviously, her current appearance was not good.

"Excuse me... this... uncle? Since you are already dead, can I borrow your clothes?"

Lan Feng walked over and swiftly took off the clothes of the headless corpse without any respect for the dead. He put them on without feeling disgusted. Fortunately, the clothes were not seriously damaged, so this "coat" was enough to cover the body.

At this time, Lan Feng felt a "pain" from the wound on her body, but she didn't care. She put away the dagger, dragged her exhausted body, and walked towards the ruins with black smoke...

Destiny Headquarters...

Claudia quickly put on the dark blue Valkyrie armor, not even taking her own weapons. She just grabbed a single-soldier landing device and left the equipment warehouse.

The order from the higher-ups cannot be changed, so I must arrive in Ukraine within an hour, find Claire, and get out of the explosion range...!

"Time is a bit tight, but... it's enough!"

Walking into a huge cabin, Claudia looked at the high-speed fighter in front of her and talked to herself.

(You are such a troublemaker... I won't let you off easily this time!)

Why did she personally go to rescue an insignificant subordinate? Claudia herself didn't know. Maybe it was just a whim?

She placed her hand on the operating table on the side, the sensor light suddenly lit up, and the program started.

"id login, kёa59416757, claudia."

"Authorization completed. Welcome, Miss Claudia."

Claudia continued speaking after hearing the robotic voice.
