K424 of the Collapse World

Looking at Charlotte who was passing by him, Benares's eyes fixed, and he raised his hand to release his ice ability to freeze the entire passage, but when he suddenly saw the cherry-haired girl who was guarding the entrance of the passage with a knife in her hand, Benares's eyes softened and he dispersed the Honkai energy condensed in his hand.

It seems that I no longer have the chance to take action...

The passage from the inside of the isolation room to the exit was only a few dozen meters. After breaking through Benares's defenses, Charlotte no longer reserved her strength and did not use her Honkai energy. She fully utilized her strong physical fitness and increased her sprint speed to the limit within the range allowed by the ground friction.

Looking at the cherry-haired girl in front of her, Charlotte immediately thought of a countermeasure. In her opinion, since this girl used a samurai sword as a weapon, it meant that her fighting style was more skillful and fast than strength. Then, she would abandon defense and directly use her greatest strength to knock her down! In terms of physical strength, ordinary pseudo-herrschers would not be her opponents. As long as she avoided the vital points as much as possible, she would be able to fight even if she was attacked.

If the slash hits the target, it will only cause an insignificant wound.

If he fails to defeat the enemy in one blow and is entangled by Benares again, he will probably have no chance.

Raising the sharp claw of her left hand high, Charlotte's vertical pupils suddenly emitted a chilling cold light, and her icy murderous intent was released without reservation.

"Get out of my way right now if you don't want to die, you donkey-eared idiot!"

"...donkey ears?"

Hearing Charlotte's subconscious shout, Yaesakura's eyebrows slightly raised, and the fluff on her long pink ears stood up slightly. She had already used her thumb to push the blade to push out the spirit sword Sakura Fubuki, but her right hand, which was about to draw the sword, stopped.

Without noticing the change in the girl's expression, Charlotte took advantage of the pause to speed up and rushed in front of her. At this moment, Yae Sakura seemed to be forced to move sideways slightly and dodge Charlotte's claws. With her dodge, the exit in front was unobstructed.

"Eh......?"

Charlotte was surprised by the cherry-haired girl's retreat without a fight. However, the only escape route was right in front of her, so there was no need for her to hesitate.

(Is she... scared?)

Charlotte was thinking this, but the next moment, she suddenly noticed that Yaezakura, who had retreated, did not let her pass. The cherry-red spirit sword had been put back into the sheath, and the cherry-haired girl's right hand gently grasped another black-red samurai sword with an ominous aura...

495 The Key of God and the Pseudo-Rhymer

The red and cherry-colored figures intertwined, and at this moment, as a fleeting spark burst out from the scabbard of Jizo Yuhun, the inky black long sword had already been unsheathed. The black light dragged by the blade cut through the air, and the deadly arc pointed directly at Charlotte's throat.

"Hmph... Do you think I can't see through your plan, stupid ass?"

Faced with such an amazing sword flash, the red-haired girl snorted in disdain. Indeed, Charlotte was not surprised at all by Yae Sakura's sideways movement after dodging. If the other party really simply gave way like this, she would be surprised.

Not daring to face the self who was charging with maximum momentum, it was natural for this donkey-eared man to choose to temporarily avoid it. To engage in a confrontation under such circumstances could be described as a real life-threatening act. However, as an interceptor, she would naturally not let go of the escaped prisoner easily. After unconsciously giving way, she must think of a way to make up for it.

However, it was too late! If he failed to attack with the intention of dying, this opponent would be defeated.

The strength of the cherry-haired girl was definitely not weak. Even with Charlotte's dynamic vision at its limit, she could only recognize the trajectory of the sword after it was completely unsheathed and drew a huge arc. As for how the girl drew the sword, she couldn't see it clearly! If the distance between the two of them was slightly closer, this attack might have killed her directly before she could react! Unfortunately, from the moment the girl retreated, this fatal sword-drawing slash lost its meaning.

Such a pure skill is definitely not the kind of Honkai creatures that use their power rudely. This pseudo-herrscher with long cherry-colored hair must have obtained the stigmata memory of a warrior...

If he were a real warrior, he probably wouldn't have chosen to dodge just now. Moreover, it's impossible to master a skill like that without a hundred years of experience. Charlotte didn't think that, apart from herself and the bishop of destiny, there would be another human being who could exist for hundreds of years.

Easily gaining powerful strength but not having the will to go with it, this is one of the drawbacks of the heir of the stigmata.

Charlotte's mind was working quickly, but she was thinking about insignificant things. But it was true that she didn't need to be nervous anymore.

Putting aside the strange black blade, the extremely sharp sword energy alone made Charlotte's hair stand on end. However, even if the black knife has some special abilities, as long as it is a knife, its main attack method is direct slashing. In this case, just avoid her slashing!

The moment she caught the trajectory of the blade, Charlotte saw that the target of the slash was her throat. As the girl retreated just now, the distance between the two of them had basically reached the limit of the samurai sword's attack range. After a simple calculation, Charlotte calculated the final landing point of the blade.

Bah——!

Charlotte tilted her head slightly with a smile, letting the arc of the black knife reach her throat. Then, as she expected, the tip of the knife only slightly brushed the collar on her neck, and the knife light flashed by without causing any harm to her.

It seems that the donkey-eared lady's eyesight is not very good. If she just adjusted the angle of the slash, she could at least leave a shallow mark on her face. But now, she can only be thankful that she didn't accidentally destroy her collar...

It is no exaggeration to say that if the collar could be removed, even if it was as powerful as Benares, Charlotte would be confident that she could defeat him with her rich combat experience, and she would still have enough time to take

Yuno and Suzuki fought their way out of ME Club.

Of course, these are just thoughts, the collar made of soul steel is not so easy to damage. Now, as long as I can escape successfully, it will be the best situation at present...

However, is it really as simple as she imagined?

After leaving Benares and Yae Sakura behind, Charlotte finally breathed a sigh of relief.

(As long as we return to the base in Antarctica and use the high-frequency cutter there, we should be able to remove this collar. Hmph... Silis Kaslana, I've been "taken care of" by you for this period of time. One day...)

———Bang! !

Until she hit the wall at the corner of the passage, Charlotte was still planning her future plans. But now, as she lost control of her body and hit the wall directly, she finally realized that something was wrong.

Even if the speed was very fast, with the precision of his movements, it was impossible for him to crash into the wall without turning in time! Moreover, with such a violent collision, even the alloy wall was dented, but why didn't it hurt as much as he imagined...

Charlotte opened her eyes wide and just wanted to get up, but she found that she couldn't move her body at all, and couldn't even feel the existence of her hands and feet!

The body's perception disappeared?

In Charlotte's mind, there is only one reason for this phenomenon...

His own collar was further activated.

This special Honkai creature capture collar has three activation stages. The first stage only limits the Honkai energy of the target individual. If the flow of the target Honkai energy is detected, it will automatically jump to the second stage. The second stage will completely restrict the flow of Honkai energy and bring continuous severe pain. The third stage is like what she is doing now, completely blocking the use of Honkai energy, and paralyzing the motor nerves with special electric current, completely depriving the body of mobility!

I was in the first stage activated by Kerry, which was only to detect and suppress the extent of Honkai energy. Why did it suddenly jump to the third stage?! Logically speaking, the control system of the isolation room has failed, so it should not be possible to directly change the collar system, but why did it suddenly start?

Could it be that......

"Damn it! Move! Wuuuu...!"

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move her limbs, and could only shake her head at best. She collapsed on the ground, listening to the slow footsteps approaching from behind, and Charlotte's heart gradually sank.

"The game is over, Miss Charlotte."

495 God's Key and the Pseudo-Rhymer>>

Yaezakura came to Charlotte's side and calmly looked into the wolf-eared girl's unwilling eyes. At this moment, having realized that she had completely failed, Charlotte sighed and slightly narrowed her amber vertical pupils.

"what have you done?"

Looking at Yaezakura's indifferent expression and thinking about the inexplicable activation of the collar, Charlotte could only think of the black knife that had just scratched the collar. But after several months of research, Charlotte was sure that there was no switch on the surface of the collar that could be manually triggered, only a few small interfaces for connecting cables. What method did this donkey ear use to make the suppression level of this collar suddenly enter the third stage?

"Through the contact just now, I used the Jizo Soul to corrode the control system of this limiter, that's all."?

Yaezakura answered expressionlessly, looking at Charlotte's still puzzled eyes, and pulled out the black sword that had already been sheathed.

"Come to think of it... People outside of Saint Freya don't seem to know about the existence of the twelfth divine key, the Key of Corrosion - Jizo Mitsuhime. This is all I can tell you about this sword."

"You mean... that sword of yours is the Key of God?!"

Charlotte's expression was completely frozen. At this moment, she was only shocked. Who would have thought that a pseudo-hermeneutic would actually possess the Key of God? And it was the twelfth Key of God that she had never heard of...

"What a joke! Who are you? No...what are you? I've never heard that a Honkai creature can use a divine key made by humans! And..."

However, Charlotte did not have the chance to continue asking questions. Yaezakura suddenly reached out her hand, and in front of the red-haired girl's horrified eyes, she grabbed the wolf ears on top of her head and lifted her up.

"Ugh——!"

Although she had no feeling, she couldn't help but scream when her ears were grabbed. The next moment, the indifferent and even cold eyes of the cherry-haired girl met her slightly trembling eyes.

"Before that, there is something important that I need to discuss with you, Miss Charlotte."

"Uh... Wh, what is it?"

"You just... called it donkey ears, right? And you called me a stupid donkey, right?

"......Eh?"

Facing Charlotte's confusion

Expression, Yaezakura's ears twitched. At this distance, Charlotte could clearly see that the soft fur on the long pink ears stood straight up. As a person with animal ears, she naturally knew what it meant when the arrector pili muscles were stimulated and the fur stood up.

This pseudo-herrscher lady must be quite angry right now...

"that......?"

"My ears are fox ears! Not rabbit ears, let alone donkey ears! Do you remember this, Miss Charlotte?"

"Ah! Yes, I remember it clearly! Miss Fox!"

Although she didn't know why the girl cared so much about this kind of thing, driven by her desire to survive, Charlotte nodded and said obediently.

Until I achieve my goal, I have to stay alive no matter what...

"Well... it's good that you know you're wrong. Please don't make fun of my ears anymore. Otherwise, I'll let you see your body falling like cherry blossoms..."

"Yes, sorry...I understand..."

Yae Sakura nodded and put Charlotte down. Although the contrast between the wolf-eared girl before and after her failure was quite large, Yae Sakura could see that this girl really cherished her life. This was not strange, as most people in the world were like this.

"Is it resolved, Sakura?"

At this time, Benares helped Kerry out of the isolation room and came to the corner where Yaesakura was. Yuno and Suzuki, who betrayed the organization, were temporarily locked up in the isolation room of C-11-R. Now, the escaped Charlotte was subdued by Yaesakura, and this small disturbance was completely calmed down.

"Well, she won't run away anymore. Now we just have to wait for Mr. Ryoma's men to handle the follow-up. Our work is done. Bella... hm?"

Yaezakura nodded, and the next moment, as if she had noticed something, the girl frowned and turned to look at the other side of the passage.

"Sakura, what's wrong?"

"It seems that this time, the turmoil in the containment zone attracted an unexpected person~ You should be more familiar with the unique Honkai energy fluctuations of that person than I am."

Looking at the thin figure gradually approaching from the other side of the passage, Yaezakura showed a faint smile on her face, she sheathed the Jizo Soul, and moved forward to meet him.

"It's really rare that you would come here... Could it be that you are worried about our abilities?"

"Don't make me sound like a high-ranking leader... I just came to talk to Mr. Raiden Ryoma about something, but I didn't expect to run into something like this. I should have taken a look at the situation first, right?"

A clear laugh came from the other side. As the figure approached, the silver-white hair shining brightly under the light came into their sight.

"But~ If you are defeated by such a half-useless wolf loli, you will become a laughing stock for the rest of your life. Sakura, Bella."

The silver-haired girl stopped, playfully saluted Yaesakura and the other two with two fingers, then quickly walked over. But before that, Benares walked past Yaesakura and walked over first with a happy look on his face.

"Welcome back, Master!"

Gently pulling Bella who was about to bow, the girl gave her a gentle smile in response.

"Well, Bella...long time no see~"

496 The Fate of the Traitor

When she heard the alarm from the ME company, Shiris basically guessed what might have happened. After communicating with Benares and Yae Sakura, she now fully understood what had happened.

"Eh... So this is what happened. You were able to deceive the inspectors here. Are you really a wolf and not a fox?"

Looking at the red-haired girl who was thrown on the ground and unable to move because of the collar, Shirley said in amazement, ignoring the girl's resentful eyes, and raised her hand to rub her soft and fluffy tail.

It has been several months since we captured this wolf loli and locked her up in the shelter of ME Company, right?

Being busy is not a good thing. If you don't pay attention, you will forget some unimportant things...

"Really... I am the fox! Besides, seeing foxes as a symbol of cunning is a wrong stereotype of humans, right?"

Yaezakura protested somewhat dissatisfiedly. She naturally understood what Shirisi had just said. The fusion of part of the power of the Higurashimaru also caused some changes in her psychology. Although she did not develop some strange habits, her self-awareness as a pseudo-herrscher had basically changed into the shape of a fox.

Leaning on Benares' wings, gently hugging the blushing girl, Shilis smiled and waved.

"Sorry, sorry~ I don't mean any harm. But speaking of this, I'm still a little curious, how did this girl seduce that young man to help her? Did she rely on the beauty of a beast-eared girl? Or some kind of supernatural power of mind control?"

In the corner of the isolation room, Suzuki sat on the floor in a daze, not saying a word.

He was gray and obviously had no intention of answering Shirley's question.

Hearing the girl's question, Kerry, who was sitting next to her, sighed softly and coughed twice.

"About this... Never mind, Sister Shilis, I'll just show you the video from ten minutes ago, and then you'll understand."

As he spoke, he rummaged through the wreckage of the mechanical equipment, found a barely usable terminal, connected to the database in the monitoring room, and played the footage from the system failure more than ten minutes ago.

After bringing the incapacitated Charlotte back to the isolation room, Shirley sat with the three people around her, reminiscing about the past and listening to these companions tell about what had just happened. The girl's expression became somewhat helpless.

I wanted to use the two days before December 12 to deal with the remaining troubles, but who would have thought that I would encounter such a thing just after I stepped into me club...

As time went by, after the chaos in the ME company gradually subsided, the anti-entropy processing team arrived at the scene belatedly. The leader looked at the girls in the room with some surprise, then came to Kerry, learned a little about the situation from the executive, and then ordered his members to start dealing with the ruins of the isolation room.

The work of others would not disturb the conversation between Hillis and the others. After watching the video that Kerry had called up, Hillis felt a little touched. During the system failure, the monitoring system was not completely ineffective, and the subsequent conversation between Charlotte and the young man was also recorded. Therefore, the conditions proposed by Charlotte and the reason why Suzuki accepted this condition were all exposed.

The fortified ME company recruited refugees from Changkong City as employees on a large scale. It is natural that such unconditional and extensive labor acquisition leads to uneven quality of employees. Logically speaking, with the rigorous character of Raiden Ryoma, he should not make such a decision...

Let's not talk about this for now. Judging from Suzuki's behavior, it is true that facing the threat of the Honkai disaster, it is understandable that he would desire the powerful power of the Valkyrie for his own safety and some personal reasons. His starting point is good, he desires extraordinary power in order to destroy the Honkai beasts. From a personal perspective, Shiris doesn't know how to evaluate this guy's behavior. However, as long as we stand from the perspective of the ME company, his stupid behavior of privately releasing Honkai creatures and seriously endangering collective safety is undoubtedly an unforgivable betrayal!

In the collapse, Changkong City was completely destroyed, and the original law and order were destroyed. Without the order of Raiden Ryoma, if the administrator here wanted to, he could execute the young man at any time.

Whether it is for Honkai beasts or special organizations, the lives of people in the Honkai outbreak area are worthless. It probably won't be long before the processing team in the experimental area will send someone to arrest this young man and execute his processing decision.

But before that...

"Now I understand why you have the code name 'Fenrir'."

Gently kneading the red wolf's tail, Shirley could feel the slightly erected hair and stiff tailbone, which exposed the red-haired girl's nervousness. In order to calm her down, Shirley simply let go of her hand and let her tail fall.

"Let's not talk about your heart that was replaced by a Honkai beast core. In order to lock you up in the ME company, we used a Honkai energy restriction collar, a compound crystal layer prison cell, and a prison door made of imitation soul steel, but you were able to escape. You really are like the monster in the myth that cannot be restrained even by Gleipnir..."
