K424 of the Collapse World

"I'm sorry, Iselin..."

Driven by some kind of energy, the Valkyrie uniform on the girl gradually became covered with a shiny silver-white color. Under the surprised gaze of the branch monitors, the second powerful Honkai energy reaction quietly erupted inside the Saint Lourdes Academy...

·————————————·

at this time

At this moment, above St. Lourdes Academy, at an altitude of about 1:1 in the stratosphere, a fiery red fireball as big as an asteroid was floating in the air, burning quietly.

In the high altitude where oxygen is scarce, the combustion reaction of the huge fireball is not restricted at all. Because it is not a real flame, but a manifestation of the high concentration of special collapse energy...

Unconditional release of heat - the power of the Herrscher of Fire.

Under the giant ball of fire, a red-haired girl in a black and red dress was floating in the air. She folded her hands in front of her chest and looked at the tiny continent under the clouds with a playful look.

After a while, she turned her head to the side, her long hair and her clothes fluttering in the layers of heat waves.

"Have you confirmed it?"

"Yes, he is indeed a Herrscher like us."

Behind the Herrscher of Fire, the girl with pink hair and blue skirt replied softly. After saying this, she withdrew the energy she had spread out, and the faint blue light and shadow in her pupils also subsided.

"Her power is still very weak. Her ability to control Honkai is probably only one-third of yours. Moreover, she has no resistance to my forced detection, and she should not be able to perform precise manipulation of Honkai energy."

The pink-haired girl's eyes remained calm, as if she was talking about a trivial matter.

Even if they are the same Herrscher, if they cannot resist the will of the Herrscher of the Heart, they will be no different from those fragile mortals in the face of her power.

"Hmph, so it is just a fake object with a core?"

The red-haired girl said lightly, closing her eyes in disappointment and raising her right hand covered with burn scars. The next moment, the giant fireball suspended above their heads quickly shrank to a quarter of its original size, and most of the destructive energy originally filled in the fireball also disappeared.

Even though it was weakened like this, the diameter of the fireball still reached hundreds of meters. Compared with the previous size comparable to an asteroid, it was still considered a giant meteorite at this moment...

"This is the minimum amount of energy required to clean up the surroundings. If she's so weak that she can't even handle it, then there's no point in talking to her."

The girl opened her eyes, and a triangular crosshair-shaped pattern was reflected in her pupils, which were glowing red.

"Let's see what kind of guy this senior who lives in harmony with pests is!"

With a casual wave of his hand, the fireball of the collapse energy turned into a meteor and smashed into the Destiny Branch and St. Lourdes Academy directly below. An unprecedented complex sequence collapse began without any warning...

"...Your welcome ceremony is really unique."

580 Inherited Fury >>

In the chaotic ward, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated. The silver-haired girl held a golden short spear in both hands, holding a pure black sword with a green blade tightly.

The purple-haired girl in a blue and white hospital gown stood opposite. She used only one hand to strike the sword, and in her free left hand, a dagger with a similar color to the greatsword appeared. However, she seemed to realize something at this moment, and the posture of swinging the dagger stopped abruptly in the air.

"..."

According to her instinctive fighting skills, when the opponent who blocked her attack was weaker than her, she should have continued to advance with the pressure of the giant sword and used the dagger to cut off one of the opponent's arms!

However, as she forcibly restrained this action, it turned into the current confrontation situation.

Just before the confrontation, the clothes on Shilis had changed into a religious dress with black gauze and gold edges. Looking at the helpless face of the silver-haired girl, Jiuxiao fell into a trance again before he could say anything...

In fact, the moment she saw the change in Jiuxiao's eyes, Xi Lisi had already guessed such a situation and was prepared to deal with it. However, things still exceeded her expectations.

The moment before the two weapons collided, the air wave caused by Jiuxiao's charge was enough to destroy at least five nearby wards. In order to prevent most of Saint Freya's medical area from becoming ruins, Shilis had to release the directional restraining force to avoid Asakura Miyuki and Charlotte who were lifted up by the air wave and eliminate the strong winds generated by these supersonic speeds.

Shirisi, who spent time protecting the surroundings, faced the giant sword that was slashing down on her head. She hastily used the purest Houkai energy in her body to construct this physical short spear. She then fully activated her Herrscher form, used a small-scale restraint field to eliminate the unknown dangerous energy on the blade, and rushed towards Jiuxiao's great sword...

When using the restraint field, Shiris herself was unable to use Honkai energy to strengthen her physique. The two of them fought in an instant with pure physical strength, and it ended with Jiuxiao's victory.

However, after paying a small price, Shilis successfully blocked this terrible blow.

The ground beneath her feet was full of cracks. If she hadn't used restraining chains to secure it from the inside, the pressure from the collision of swords and spears would have caused the entire floor to collapse. Fortunately, Jiu Xiao stopped in time, otherwise she wouldn't have had the chance to reinforce the ground.

"Um...ah! You, what are you doing, Jiuxiao!"

Covering her dizzy head, Asakura Miyuki just got up and saw the two girls fighting with weapons. With her scream, the dazed Jiuxiao suddenly reacted and hurriedly dissipated the giant sword in his hand.

As Jiuxiao suddenly put away the sword, Shilis lost her support and swayed forward, stumbling. But in the next moment, she quickly regained her balance and propped the short spear in her hand on the ground.

"Uh, I..."

"Okay Jiuxiao, relax, I won't pursue it."

Looking at the purple-haired girl who lowered her head with a guilty look on her face and stammered, unable to speak, Shirley shook her head and smiled at her kindly.

Asakura Miyuki frowned, glared at Jiuxiao, then turned to Shiris.

"Lady Shilis! Are you okay?"

Seeing Asakura Miyuki running over in a panic, Shirisi exhaled and let the power of creation flow through her body. Soon, the leg bones that were broken by the impact and the right arm bones that were completely shattered were restored to their original state under the energy repair.

"It's nothing, I just got a little scared."

As she spoke, she dispersed the Honkai energy javelin in her hand and waved at the cat-eared girl.

"Also, Jiuxiao didn't do it on purpose, so don't blame her too much."

"Well... okay..."

Seeing the somewhat reluctant Asakura Miyuki, Shirisi smiled bitterly. Fortunately, her spiritual outfit in the form of a Herrscher had black long gloves and knee-high socks, which perfectly covered the dark blue on the surface of her skin from the fracture and contusion. Otherwise, if this girl saw it, she would have eaten Jiuxiao...

However, Charlotte's slightly complicated eyes not far away obviously saw something.

In response, Shirley simply shrugged and turned her gaze to the purple-haired girl who was rubbing her hands opposite her.

"Um, I'm sorry... I'm so sorry!"

Noticing that Shirley was looking at him, Jiuxiao apologized immediately. His peach-colored eyes, which were filled with guilt, were already misty with anxiety. He bowed deeply to her and did not stand up for a long time.

"I'm really sorry, Ms. Shilis... I didn't mean to attack you! But... but when I saw you, my body moved involuntarily... Um, I'm sorry..."

"I've already told you it's okay... Never mind. If this makes you feel better, I accept your apology. Now, hold your head up, Jiuxiao."

Shilis said lightly, looking at the purple-haired girl whose temperament and personality had completely changed, and recalling Jiuxiao's reaction just now, she could roughly guess the reason why the other party behaved like this.

"This is not your fault, Jiuxiao. Although I stand on the side of humans, I am still a Herrscher of Honkai in essence. The holders of the inherited stigmata are mostly warriors who fight to the death against Honkai. You have lost your memories and are like a blank sheet of paper. Under the influence of the stigmata memory, you have a natural hostility towards the Herrscher. In theory, this is normal."

According to the experience summarized in the memory of the world line, Shilis spoke to Jiuxiao earnestly. However, unexpectedly, after hearing her words, Jiuxiao shook his head hesitantly.

"That... I don't think that's the case, Ms. Hillis."

"Ok?"

Looking at the silver-haired girl with a puzzled expression, Jiuxiao bit his lip and remained silent for a moment. Finally, as if he had made some decision, his eyes became firm.

"Ms. Shilis, the reason I lost control just now was not because I felt the aura of the Herrscher, or noticed anything else, but because... I saw your face."

"my face?"

"Yes... Maybe this is a bit strange, but I seem to have seen you in my dream. The uncontrollable anger I just had came from here..."

581 Metal Herrscher

After seeing Jiuxiao's changes, it would be a lie for Xi Lisi to say that she was not surprised. However, as an experienced leader, her surprise was not directly reflected on her face.

She originally thought that what was awakened in Jiuxiao was only a relatively powerful stigma, but the overall power was no greater than Ji Xuanyuan's stigma. However, when she took that devastating sword, her conjecture was instantly shattered.

Under the constraints of the restraint field, the giant sword slash with physical strength alone can easily crush her blocking arms and break her legs. This power, even if Jizi's power when driving the stigmata energy with all her strength is multiplied by five, cannot achieve such destructive power...

Shilis's own strength, although in the state of Honkai strengthening her physique, her strength can also be overwhelming, and she may not lose to Jiuxiao's sword just now in a head-on confrontation. However, canceling the restriction field and using Honkai energy also means that Jiuxiao can also use his special ability, and it is still uncertain who is stronger and who is weaker.

Moreover, if she really did so, with two extraordinary powers fighting at full strength, by the time others arrived, the medical building and half of the school campus would probably be gone.

Not to mention Jiuxiao's monstrous physical fitness, at the moment of the confrontation, the stigmata fluctuations gave Shilis a feeling

It was also very unique. Obviously, there were other unknown powers in that stigma.

Suddenly, there is a Herrscher-level expert. Should we say this is a pleasant surprise or another potential safety hazard...

·————————————·

"My appearance?" Hearing Jiuxiao's words, Shilis frowned and walked towards the girl who looked reserved. "You mean, you saw my appearance in your dream?"

"Yes, I have a vague impression of it. It must be a dream..."

"No, that was probably not a dream, but a memory left over from the stigmata information."

"Eh? Is that so..."

Shilis nodded, walked to Jiuxiao, and pulled up her sleeves. On the skin of the girl's arm, there was a blood-red mark covering the entire arm!

"Hmm... However, this is the first time I've seen a stigmata of this size..."

Of course, Jiuxiao's stigmata were not on her arms, but on her entire back. These stigmata on her arms extended from her back, which was covered with stigmata patterns, and climbed up her right arm like a dragon tattoo across her shoulder.

These delicate stigmata were crisscrossed and densely packed together, faintly flashing a dark red light, and it looked as if Jiuxiao's arm had undergone some kind of mutation...

Looking at the exposed holy scar, Shilis tried to inject a little perception. The next moment, her eyes were slightly dazed, and an uncontrollable astonishment flashed across her eyes.

"By the way, was the hatred you just now directed at my appearance or at me as a person?" Shiris asked calmly, letting go of Jiuxiao's arm.

"It should be your appearance."

After a little thought, Jiuxiao said with certainty.

"Because I am actually not sensitive to that kind of... corrosive energy that you call Honkai energy. I can feel that these two ladies with animal characteristics also have a lot of that energy, but when I face them, I don't feel anything strange..."

"I see. In other words, if the first person to come to see you was Kiana or Diana, you would have slashed at me like you did, right?"

"Eh?"

"They are my twin sisters. Except for being a little taller than me, they look exactly like me. However, with their strength, they can't take your attack like I can."

Shirley said softly, with a hint of relief in her slightly cold tone. Seeing this gentle and kind girl suddenly showing such an expression, Jiuxiao couldn't help but shudder, lowered his head again, and bent down with gritted teeth.

"I'm really sorry..."

"Haha...well, fortunately nothing like this tragedy happened, so you don't have to mind it."

Shirley exhaled and smiled slightly, and the cold aura just now disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"I want to know, how much memory have you lost?"

"this......"

"Before Miyuki and the others told you, did you still remember your name?"

"Can not remember......"

Jiuxiao shook her head, and as her emotions gradually stabilized, her expression returned to its previous slightly indifferent look, making people unable to associate her with the original energetic girl.

"But I do remember one thing..."

Looking at the thoughtful silver-haired girl, Jiuxiao suppressed the instinctive vigilance in his heart, slowed down his tone as much as possible, and interrupted Shiris's thoughts.

"Ok?"

"My lost memories seem to be the key to unlocking a certain seal, and before I lost my memories, I must have made this choice voluntarily..."

"Are you willing to give up your memories?"

"Yes, although it's a little vague, I can still feel the awareness and faith that remain in my heart..."

As he spoke, Jiu Xiao closed his eyes, recalling the brief moment of clarity in his chaotic mind in that black space, trying to find fragments of memory from it...

(Savior...? That's the title. I have such a heavy responsibility. According to them, I used to be the captain of this anti-Honkai armed organization? So "I" made such a decision to exchange power at all costs...)

Jiuxiao thought silently, glanced at Shiris who was also silent in front of him, remembered what Asakura Miyuki told him not long ago, and recalled the confrontation with the silver-haired girl, and smiled bitterly to himself.

(Silis Kaslana, the strongest person in the organization, a saint who protects humanity as a herrscher... and my strength is on par with hers? No wonder she is called the savior... It's really troublesome, I can only try my best to do my duty...)

At this moment, on the opposite side of Jiuxiao, after hearing what the purple-haired girl said, Shilis also felt a little emotional.

Although she knew long ago that the girl who kept shouting that she was the savior was not an ordinary person, she still didn't expect Jiu Xiao to be so kind to the stigmata.

In a sense, this is equivalent to erasing one's own personality!

581 Metal Herrscher>>

(But since it's your choice...)

Looking at the stern purple-haired girl, Shilis breathed a sigh of relief. After recovering her memories in the quantum sea, her morbid desire to protect had been restrained.

Whether in terms of awareness or strength, Jiu Xiao is now not inferior to himself. It seems obvious what to do in this situation.

Thinking of this, she raised her head and was about to say something when her instinctive perception caught a faint wave coming from afar...

(A resonance reaction of Honkai energy? Could it be...!)

Seeing that Shirley's expression suddenly froze and quickly became solemn, Asakura Miyuki and Charlotte, who were sitting among the rubble, immediately realized something. But before they could ask, the silver-haired girl turned around and rushed out of the dilapidated ward, crushing the hard ground and flying up, flying straight towards the Far East Command Center...
