K424 of the Collapse World

"Don't even think about it."

Tesla turned his head and looked at her, his eyes calm.

"Your Herrscher ability should not be used in this kind of place. And, Shiris, I don't think that you can accurately control Honkai energy in your current state."

Tesla looked at the silver-haired girl beside her with some worry. Although she didn't know what Shirley's current condition was, based on Siegfried's description, she believed that the girl was in such a state that she could not use the energy of the Herrscher casually.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything unnecessary."

As she spoke, the girl had already stopped and stretched out her hand to the old professor who was in a half-eroded state.

"But if necessary..."

The golden light was fleeting, attracting almost no attention in the chaotic hall. But it was obvious that after the golden light sank into the old man's body, the graying of half of his body had stopped spreading outwards.

Using the power of restraint to offset an equal amount of Honkai energy is one of her most basic abilities as a restrainer.

"Siris!"

"Shh~ Don't be so loud in the hospital."

Shilis put her index finger between her lips and smiled back at the red-haired girl.

"It's too late to rescue him according to the normal rescue procedures here. If I don't do anything, he will be completely dead in seven minutes, and then launch indiscriminate attacks on living things around him."

Not caring about Tesla's angry look, Hillis pointed at the front desk clerk who was stuck in the crowd while speaking.

"The critically ill patients were left alone. This situation must have been an oversight by the staff. I'm afraid no one would notice it until the old man actually became a dead soldier. By then, how do you think these medical staff will stop a dead soldier who is out of control?"

Tesla bit her lip. Even though she was only concerned about Shirley's physical condition, she had to admit that the girl's choice just now was indeed correct.

But even if he admitted it in his heart, Dr. Tesla would not show the slightest approval.

"Okay, okay... You always have a reason. But it doesn't matter now, right? Come with me to the lab!"

"But I want to go see Xing first..."

"Rejected, come with me for a check-up first!"

Tesla dragged Hillis's arm and led the girl to the side door of the medical department. After they left, the inspection work finally came to the seriously infected old man.

The moment he saw the gray matter that half covered the body, the doctor in charge of the examination was horrified.

"This... This is already the fourth stage of erosion! Why is such a serious patient still staying in the observation area?!"

Even though he was extremely surprised, he did not forget his work and immediately asked his assistant to check the patient's actual erosion rate. But soon, the test results were again beyond their expectations.

664 Rest for a Moment >>

"Basic brain wave synchronization frequency 0.24hz, somatic cell mutation rate 47.2%, blood collapse concentration... 0.01hw/l??"

"What a joke! How could a gray-white dead soldier of this scale only have a concentration of 0.01hw of Honkai?!"

"0.01... The concentration of Honkai in the air is more than 0.01 hw, right?"

Several medical staff looked at each other in bewilderment, but after the second examination obtained the same result, they had to believe that the actual concentration in the body of this patient who seemed to be half dead was indeed lower than that of a normal person...

"Could it be that this old gentleman has awakened the stigma?"

"No, I think it should be..."

"Stop guessing! Send him to the ward over there quickly. Your work is not finished yet!"

He scolded the young assistants, but the doctor himself was a little confused. After working in the emergency center of the anti-Honkai organization for so many years, this was the first time he encountered such a unique case...

The 47% cell erosion rate was clearly a symptom of severe Honkai erosion. However, the Honkai energy that had already invaded the body seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and it was impossible to explain it with conventional Honkai phenomena...

(Is it true?

Is it the stigmata? But...)

After pushing and shoving with Tesla to the laboratory of the branch base, the noisy environment before suddenly disappeared, as if we had entered a different world...

Gently stroking the girl's right hand covered with white marks, Tesla closed his eyes a little irritably, dispelling the ominous premonition in his heart.

"It's just like after the Serenity Gem fusion experiment... But these things are probably more troublesome than those scars, right?"

The white lines were like tattoos, and they still felt smooth and delicate like skin. But Tesla knew very well that these marks left by the destruction of the law were not harmless decorations.

Letting Tesla fiddle with her right hand, Hillary looked at the tools and instruments in the laboratory, seeming a little absent-minded.

The girl was not against the physical examination, but she didn't want Tesla to know her specific condition. Although Shilis didn't know whether these instruments could analyze the actual effect of breaking the law, she didn't want Tesla to worry about her own affairs.

The knowledge from her reincarnation memories told her that at this stage of human technology... no, not even the technology from countless generations of reincarnation could analyze the Laws of the Herrscher.

"So, what exactly do you want to check? Just finish it quickly, I have other things to do later..."

"Don't worry, the steps of this kind of physical examination equipment are very simple. You just need to lie flat on the sensor and let me operate it."

Pointing to the mechanical "coffin" placed in front of him, Tesla walked towards the operating table of the experimental tools.

"Okay, take off your clothes and lie down in that container."

"Huh? Do you still want to take off your clothes?"

"The penetration power of SE-M rays is very weak. They can't penetrate the radiation-proof Valkyrie uniform at all! In principle, for the accuracy of monitoring, it is best to take off all underwear..."

"I know, I know."

Following Tesla's request, she took off her clothes and lay down in the mechanical container in front of her. Looking at the light waves sweeping across her body, Shirley couldn't help but stretch her body and slightly narrowed her eyes.

(It’s a little hard, but… it’s really comfortable to lie on~!)

After the exhausting Herrscher War, Shiris didn't expect that she would actually start her first rest in the medical examination cabin...

Thanks to the cooperation of the girl, Tesla also quickly got the data feedback from the instrument. However, what she couldn't understand was that all the physical data indicators shown by the detector were normal values ​​for Valkyrie. In addition to the more active Honkai energy in her body, she was even healthier than ordinary Valkyries.

This is a medical examination machine for Valkyries, and since Shiris is a Law Constraint User, it is normal for her to have a large amount of Honkai Energy in her body. But why can't the so-called Law of Destruction be detected?

Tesla flipped through the densely packed data sheets and slowly frowned.

Even the law marks on the arms and chest were no different in composition from other parts of the body. The test results showed that they were just ordinary skin, and there was no way to know the reason for the color change...

No problem? Absolutely not!

Tesla thought about it and immediately understood something.

"Oh right... Shiris! Release your Herrscher form and let's test it again!"

"..."

"Siris?"

Without getting a response, Tesla came to the square container and found that the girl had closed her eyes, and her steady breathing rose and fell slightly with her chest...

"She actually fell asleep? That's right... After fighting against a Herrscher-level opponent repeatedly and overdrawing her energy to pull up the entire falling Saint Freya Island, I'm afraid this girl has already reached her limit? Really, she is still holding on and not taking a rest..."

Tesla shook her head and put the experiments and tests behind her for the time being.

"Good night, Shirley. Have a good rest today..."

665 Quantum Mystery

On the boundless South African wilderness, a girl holding a lance stood among countless broken limbs and arms, looking at the remains of the Ruler scattered all over the ground, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The particle flow energy emitted from the Yuepo Armor then dissipated, releasing the extreme burst mode.

"Anyway...Is this the solution?"

The strongest Valkyrie deftly turned the heavy lance in a semi-moon arc, disarmed herself, and the Eternal Hellel retracted her energy information into the armor.

"A lot of them ran away..."

"It's alright, Lord Yulandel. Our mission objective is to 'crush' rather than 'eliminate', and that's enough."

"Tsk, when we were besieging the Herrishers of Constraint, these guys were still attacking fearlessly; but when facing me, they passively responded. It's really inexplicable... Rita, is the Herrishers of Constraint actually weaker than me?"

The blonde girl frowned and talked to herself.

When she said the last sentence, she opened the team communication again and asked her adjutant such a nonsensical question.

"Eh...? Lord Yulandel, I'm sorry that I can't judge who is stronger between you and Miss Shilis, but the actions of these Rulers of Rule should not be due to your strength or weakness... According to the bishop's speculation, their purpose is just to delay the Ruler of Constraint here."

"So, the goal of this annihilation operation is to disrupt their plans? Heh... A Houkai monster driven by killing instinct actually knows how to use strategy?"

"Well... Lady Yulandel, the Dominant Herrscher is a group of Herrschers who use quantum entanglement to share brain waves. This type of special Herrscher is able to conduct strategic command as an advantage. Without this ability, a thousand pseudo-Herscher-level Honkai creatures are not worthy of being called a Herrscher."

The maid spoke softly, without any trace of her personal subjective thoughts in her tone.

"Besides, before they launched their attack, the Herrscher of the Heart had already infiltrated the governing bodies of 13 small countries."

"Oh? Actually...wait, if that's the case, why haven't we encountered any trouble from this aspect?"

"I don't know. Perhaps the young Herrscher of the Heart has no experience in manipulating a country, or... she didn't have time to use these trump cards."

"what?"

"The Herrscher of the Heart was defeated at St. Freya's Academy not long ago and has been confirmed dead. Perhaps it was because we disrupted the original plan of Honkai, causing those Herrschers to encounter enemies they should not have encountered..."

"Anyway, the Herrscher has been confirmed dead, right?"

Seeing the transport ship coming close enough, Yulandel stood up. The blue particle stream shone again under the jet wings of her skirt armor. The powerful propulsion force made the girl's figure fly into the air and fly towards the transport ship directly above.

As a comprehensive third-generation Valkyrie Godslayer armor, Yulandel's Brilliant Knight Moon Soul and White Knight Moon Light are also equipped with flight functions. Their range and speed are comparable to those of the Sky's high-speed transport ships. If necessary, she can even depart directly from the Sky's headquarters and reach any location on the planet relying solely on the armor's propulsion mode...

"The mission is over, Yulandel is back with the team."

Flying into the hatch at the rear of the transport ship, the girl returned to the exclusive ship of the Immortal Blade. As soon as she stepped onto the deck of the ship, she saw the maid who had been waiting in the drop cabin.

"Rita, I remember that after the combat goal is achieved, we should go to support the battlefield of the Far East Branch, but if the situation there has stabilized, there should be no need to make an extra trip. Besides this, does the Bishop have any other instructions? If not, let's just return to the Destiny Airport."

"Regarding this... His Excellency the Bishop did issue an order at the Operations Center not long ago, but the expanded force at the headquarters has already taken over that mission, so it probably has nothing to do with us now."

After refreshing the terminal's taskbar once again, the maid responded respectfully.

"Expand the troops? Ah... those cloned test subjects of our ancestors? Well, since it is an optional release-type mission, it really has nothing to do with us."

As she spoke, the girl personally confirmed the mission list before nodding and giving the order to return.

But at this moment, she suddenly turned her head and looked through the window of the cabin at the sparsely distributed ruins below with some concern.

"What's wrong, Master Yulandel?"

"Hmm... nothing. Maybe it's just my illusion. After a battle, it's not surprising that the concentration of Honkai energy in this area has reached the warning value. Maybe a few secondary Honkai creatures will be born later..."

"So, do we need to clean up the traces?"

“No, we don’t have that much time now. Even though the Herrscher has been defeated, the threat of Honkai has not been resolved. Perhaps we have other things to do after returning to the headquarters.”

Having said that, Yulandel shook her head and turned away, no longer paying attention to the collapsed battlefield below.

There were few things that could attract her attention. Although she couldn't explain why the ruins made her want to look at them, Yulandel always had a feeling that something would come out of there...

Honkai beast? No, ordinary Honkai beasts wouldn't make her so concerned. This indescribable feeling would only be something more troublesome.

(Should I stay and observe... But I can't stay there for no reason after the mission is over. My intuition can't be the reason for such a decision...)

After all, these were just some unfounded hunches. Even if he was the captain of the Undying Blade, he couldn't force his subordinates to carry out unreasonable orders.

665 Quantum Mystery>>

While she was thinking, the transport ship had started to move again and began to head towards the headquarters of Tianming...

It seems that we can only forget about this matter, right?

The change in Yulandel's expression while she was thinking did not escape the maid's sharp eyes.

"Lord Yulandel, has something happened?"

"I told you it's nothing..."

Just as she was about to answer Rita's question, Youlan Daier suddenly felt an inexplicable chill...

The source of this was undoubtedly behind the transport ship, the wasteland littered with the corpses of Herrschers.

(No! That is definitely not an illusion, that is...!)

——! !

Rita wanted to ask something, but Yulandel suddenly stepped forward, reached out and grabbed a member of the Immortal Blade who was sitting on the side, and pulled her away from her original position!

Sizzle——!!

Almost at the same time, accompanied by a teeth-grinding sound of metal tearing, the side armor of the transport ship suddenly burst open, and the crack directly passed through the seat position, and finally left a huge crack on the side of the transport ship!

If the Valkyrie had not been pulled away by Youlandel, her body would have been torn apart along with the ship by the attack, turning into a number of bloody and irregular pieces of flesh...

But now, she had no time to feel gratified about having survived the disaster.
