That's right, there is no way that fusion warriors can be sacrificed. Their lives are long and long. When civilization is rebuilt, with them around, nothing will go wrong. They are the most suitable guides and supervisors.
Why do I have to think about these things...
Murstein City.
Zhu Yufeng stood in front of Yanar, who was lying on the ground seriously injured, and looked down at his left shoulder which seemed to be pierced by a bullet. Considering the physique of a fusion warrior, ordinary bullets are completely ineffective against him. In addition, he himself is surrounded by Honkai energy for defense, so even armor-piercing bullets may not cause much damage to him.
In addition, the fusion warrior's physical recovery ability is not exaggerated. As long as the Honkai is in place, the wound can be healed in a short time.
but……
"The wound has not healed, and the body's ability to control Honkai energy has weakened. This familiar feeling... Honkai energy interference bomb?" Zhu Yufeng shifted his gaze to the direction of the bullet shot at him.
"maple!"
Alicia, who had arrived at the same time, saw Zhu Yufeng in this state and her pupils shrank. She also instantly recognized what type of weapon could cause such damage to Zhu Yufeng.
But...isn't that the weapon that Professor Mei developed after the Tenth Herrscher incident?
"We seem to be surrounded." Zhu Yufeng was quite calm, and didn't seem to care too much about the fact that he was bleeding.
He just felt that he might need to reflect on himself. He was just focusing on keeping a close eye on Yanar's movements. He was confident that at this stage, as long as the Ninth Ruler was still alive, the Mu Continent side would be unlikely to attack him, and they also did not have the ability to cause much effective damage to him.
This bullet was aimed at his heart, and a few more bullets were fired after he noticed it...
Moreover, it seems that the primary target of this group of people should be the Ninth Herrscher Yanar. He was only shot once, but Yanar was shot more than ten times, more than he was shot at that time.
Even if he shot through his heart, he couldn't kill himself, but he could reverse the time of his own body. As for Yanar, although he was hit by many bullets, none of them hit his vital parts. Even though he was seriously injured, Yanar still had the strength to fight.
As the name suggests, Honkai interference bombs interfere with the target's ability to control Honkai energy. Generally speaking, they are effective against both Herrschers and Fusion Warriors, but the effect on Herrscher is smaller. After all, no matter how much the Herrscher's control over Honkai is weakened, it is actually difficult to affect the release of the Herrscher's power, unless it is a weapon like the Staff of Yellow Springs that can directly sever the connection between the Herrscher and the Tree of Imaginary Numbers with a special attack against the Herrscher.
In other words, this weapon is used to attack fusion warriors. It interferes with the operation of Honkai energy in the body, causing the super-mutation factors in the body to get out of control and collapse artificially without control. After that, it is like fighting for control of the body with another beast-like self. As the only fusion warrior who has been hit by a Honkai energy interference bullet, Zhu Yufeng has a deep understanding of this.
The final result is that the body collapses in the process.
However, the Honkai interference bullet must hit the target to work. For fusion warriors, at least for the heroes, it is difficult to hit them unless they are attacked by surprise. Moreover, although only one bullet can cause considerable damage, in reality, more bullets may be needed. For example, someone was shot several times and was still alive and well and went with Sakura to suppress the Twelfth Herrscher before falling down.
As for whether there are differences between people, Zhu Yufeng doesn't know. After all, he seems to be the only fusion warrior who has been beaten by this thing in his past life and this life...
"Can the Honkai energy interfere with the bomb?" Lilith frowned slightly and asked while standing beside Zhu Yufeng.
"It does feel that way." Zhu Yufeng turned his gaze towards the young man who shot him. They were surrounded by soldiers who were also armed with guns.
Ying drew out the Seven Thunders of Purification in her hand, and she held the knife with both hands, ready for battle, as if she would take action in the next second. Her target was not the Herrscher, but these special forces of Mu Continent that suddenly appeared - there was no information about this force from Mu Continent in the existing data of the Fire Moth, so it was nothing to directly understand it as the special forces of Mu Continent.
Zhu Yufeng noticed Ying's actions, stretched out his hand to stop Ying, and signaled her not to act rashly.
As for Kevin and Paduo, they had a brief discussion on the communication channel when they came over, and finally agreed that Kevin's team would go and take away Zhu Yufeng and Lilith's "daughter". Kevin agreed readily. As for Ying and Paduo... Ying insisted on going to Zhu Yufeng's side to meet up as planned, but Paduo was a little curious about the child so she went with Kevin.
Originally, retrieving the Herrscher Core of the First Herrscher was one of the purposes of the Fire Moth's forcible intervention in Mu Continent's campaign against the Ninth Herrscher. After all, the Herrscher Core still nominally belonged to the Fire Moth, and there was nothing wrong with the Fire Moth taking it away. What's more, this time it could even be considered that Mu Continent was at fault first.
No one expected that Mu Continent would play such a big game this time. In the previous life, although the Herrscher Core was still "temporarily kept" by Mu Continent, it was always located in Mu Continent's research center. In the end, Dr. Einstein risked his life to rescue it before the continent sank.
In addition, killing the Ninth Herrscher was indeed not the primary goal of Zhu Yufeng and others. After knowing that the Herrscher Core of the First Herrscher was taken by Mu Dalu for pseudo-Herrscher experiments, the priority of recovering the Herrscher Core was actually higher than killing the Ninth Herrscher.
Lilith took a quick look at the wounds on Zhu Yufeng's body and his expression at the moment. She felt that theoretically this thing should not be a big threat to Zhu Yufeng at the moment. After all, the most important reason why Zhu Yufeng almost died at that time was that he had fused too many super-mutation factors, and because of the side effects, his body was not very good to begin with. After being shot several times, he still insisted on going with Ying to suppress the Twelfth Herrscher, which led to his near death in the end.
Well, this also includes the fact that I am helping to deal with those uncontrolled super-mutation factors, otherwise I might really be gone.
However, judging from the current situation, the bleeding from the wound seemed to have stopped, and Zhu Yufeng's expression did not change much. He was just surprised that Mu Dalu had developed the Honkai interference bomb in advance. For Lilith, who had been Zhu Yufeng's deputy for so long and had lived in his mind for a while, it was easy for her to judge that Zhu Yufeng might not be seriously injured now, or even deliberately left the wound there.
Show weakness to the enemy. When the primary goal is not to kill the Ninth Herrscher, there is really no need to show any strength. It would be best to make the guys on the opposite side become complacent and careless.
By the way, Alicia should be able to see it easily, right?
Lilith turned her gaze to Alicia, and found that there seemed to be something wrong with Alicia's expression.
Oh, caring too much will lead to confusion.
That's right. For these former heroes, Honkai energy interference bombs are basically a very sensitive topic. After all, they were different from themselves at that time. They were in Feng's consciousness and knew Feng's physical condition very well. They could be sure that Feng would be fine. They could only stand outside the operating room and wait for the results and could do nothing.
“I didn’t expect that even when confronting the Ninth Herrscher, he could react quickly after being attacked. Should we say that he is worthy of being the strongest fusion warrior of the Fire Moth?” The leading young man kept pointing his gun at Zhu Yufeng without moving it away. “However, in front of the research results of our Mu Continent, it’s just like that. Whether it’s a fusion warrior or a Herrscher, we can easily take him down!”
the other side.
Hen silently looked at Kevin who was holding the Skyfire in one hand, slightly blocking the little girl behind him: "Kevin, we don't need to make such a fuss, right?"
"Our goal is to recover the Herrscher Core of the First Herrscher. If it is in this child's body, then we can only take the child away with us." Kevin said expressionlessly, "We all know why it turned out like this, don't we?"
Paddo glanced at Kevin. Is Kevin really going to do it? Kevin, your main point is not to take the child away, right?
"If things can't be resolved with words in the end, then I can only say..." Kevin stuck the Skyfire into the ground, "Hen, friend or enemy, choose."
Chapter 273: Expected Sinking
"Beffinger..." Lionel stared at his old friend who appeared in front of him to block him and the Black Abyss Army, "Are you...really planning to go to war with Mu Continent?"
"At this point, what's the point in discussing whether to start a war or not?" Beffinger shrugged. "Leon, you know it very well in your heart, don't you? No matter how hard you try, no matter how hard you try to prevent the complete breakup between the Fire Moth and Mu Continent, you can't repair the growing rift between the two forces. Mu Continent cannot accommodate the Fire Moth, and the Fire Moth does not need the restrictions of Mu Continent. You can only delay the outbreak of conflict and slow down the expansion of the rift, but it is there and cannot be repaired. You can't stop the inevitable arrival of war."
Beffinger said with a helpless smile: "Because this is what humans are like, isn't it?"
Lionel was silent. He knew what Beffinger said very well. He once hoped that His Majesty the King could understand him. As long as His Majesty the King stood on his side, he could continue to hold on and war would not come. However... in this crusade, too many unexpected things happened, and too many expected things that he was unwilling to believe.
His Majesty the King conducted experiments without his knowledge that would further catalyze the conflict between the two sides, and directly interfered in this crusade without his knowledge, and the token in the hands of his adjutant Brian could replace his command at any time.
This all shows that His Majesty the King no longer has the same trust in him as before, and the balance he is seeking is ultimately just an illusion.
Now he...maybe he is indeed a loser.
A failed fiancé who couldn't even keep his fiancée. A failed minister who was not trusted by the king and was entrusted with important tasks but was restricted in every way...
At least in the end, he should still fulfill his duties as a soldier. No matter what his final outcome is, whether he dies in this crusade or is tried by the Mu Continent Military Court, he is willing to accept it calmly.
The complicated thoughts were discarded in just a few seconds, but this period of time was enough for those who came later to add an additional rebuke to their own evaluation.
"Black Abyss Squad, listen up, use tactic No. 2, change formation, and defeat the blockers in the shortest time possible!" Lionel gave the order and pointed his gun at Beffinger.
"That's the thing about you... You're really too stubborn." Beffinger shook his head, and the next second his body changed rapidly, and a huge monster appeared in front of Lionel and the Black Abyss troops.
"Man-made collapse... As a civilian officer, you actually also possess this kind of power?" Lionel looked up. He was very clear about Beffinger's special abilities. Although as a psychic fusion warrior, Beffinger's special abilities were almost useless against man-made creatures such as the armed puppet army.
But...if Beffinger used it properly, he wouldn't have to fight me head-on, it would be enough to just stop me here.
Maybe this is the main purpose of Beffinger's appearance here. He is just here to delay time. As long as he can block himself from passing, Zhu Yufeng and others will have time to kill the Ninth Herrscher and recover the Herrscher Core. After all, according to Beffinger, after the end of this crusade, the Fire Moth and Mu Continent basically put their conflicts on the table, and the war is about to break out.
This is Zhu Yufeng's side.
"Retreat." Zhu Yufeng stated his decision simply and clearly.
Alicia glanced at Zhu Yufeng. She knew what Zhu Yufeng meant by retreating. Or rather, she had already guessed that Zhu Yufeng would make such a choice in this collapse. And she... actually wanted to fight for it, hoping that things could turn around. But the reality was... maybe this turn around was just her wishful thinking.
Even if the Ninth Herrscher was severely injured, the power of his self-destruction would not be weaker than Uriel's. Moreover... she could feel that the Honkai energy fluctuations around Yanar were quite chaotic, but she was not as weak as Uriel at that time.
Uriel is not only an incompletely awakened Herrscher, but also a stunted Herrscher with congenital deficiencies, so she needs to find a more suitable carrier for her Herrscher core.
In other words, even if Yanar is seriously injured now, if he self-destructs, he may still be able to destroy Mu Continent.
Thus……
Alicia's gaze fell on Zhu Yufeng's injured shoulder again, and her eyes became a little flickering.
Finally, she just nodded and whispered, "Let's go."
As long as she uses her own abilities to create a flawless crystal wall, it will be no problem to block the attack of this special force and buy enough time to retreat.
"Oh, come as you please, leave as you please, Mu Continent is not your place..."
Huge thorny vines suddenly grew out of the ground, breaking out from the feet of the soldiers surrounding Zhu Yufeng and others. This was the creative ability of the Black Abyss White Flower. Generally speaking, Zhu Yufeng rarely used this ability. Why would he go through so much trouble if he could just annihilate them directly? But at the moment, he was really too lazy to bother with these people.
He just wanted to get away from the battlefield quickly. If he used the power of the Black Abyss, Yanar might feel the threat of death and explode himself, which would cause even greater trouble.
"Shoot, shoot!" shouted the young man in the lead.
乪However, Honkai interference bombs can only cause considerable damage to fusion warriors in the case of sneak attacks. After being attacked by the vines growing on the ground, the soldiers were caught off guard and had to stand firm even if they wanted to aim. Not to mention that Alicia used the flawless crystal wall as a barrier to block the soldiers' sight the moment the vines grew out.
Yanar, who was lying on the ground, raised her head with some effort. A rare ray of humanity appeared in the eyes of the Herrscher. She watched Zhu Yufeng and others evacuate without any movement from beginning to end.
"Tsk... Never mind. The strongest fusion warrior of the Fire Moth is only this good. In the end, he could only flee in panic when facing us." The young man turned his gaze to Yanar. "That guy Lionel has always been just talking big. I'm afraid his achievements are all exaggerated. He can't even quickly deal with a civilian like Beffinger."
Yanar lowered her eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, not sure whether it was bitter or relieved: "Sure enough... I still hope that Leon can be fine..."
"A seriously injured Herrscher will definitely produce better results if used for experiments than just taking a Herrscher core." The young man walked up to Yanar and wanted to take Yanar away.
But the next second, the Herrscher's entire body suddenly changed, and the light was distorted by the powerful gravity at this moment. The young man and the soldiers he brought had no time to react, and everything was annihilated in an instant.
A gravitational field that not even light could escape was formed with the Herrscher's body as the center. Because of the interference effect of the Honkai energy, the violent and chaotic Honkai energy was released in an explosive manner at this moment. The range of the gravitational field expanded at a very fast speed. Yanar was still lying in the center of the gravitational field. Even the Herrscher himself could not completely resist this gravitational field.
This is the result of her directly and explosively releasing her own power and Honkai energy. Her body will be annihilated as the gravity field continues to expand until she disappears completely, and the gravity field will disappear with her.
This is also the reason why the Fire Moth was able to recover the Herrscher's core in the previous life. Because when the Herrscher's body was completely annihilated, the pseudo-black hole she created also dissipated due to the loss of control and the supply of Honkai energy, and finally only a Herrscher core was left.
Sensing the movement behind him, Zhu Yufeng, who had already reached the edge of Murstein, looked back at the abyss-like scene behind him. He knew very well that the pseudo-black hole created by the self-detonation of the Ninth Herrscher had formed.
"Everyone, speed up and evacuate Mu Continent. The Ninth Herrscher has self-destructed to form a pseudo-black hole." Zhu Yufeng said this in the communication channel. Although the pseudo-black hole spreads extremely quickly, it took less than an hour to sink the entire Mu Continent in the previous life, but this does not mean that it spread to the entire Mu Continent, but because of its own supergravity factor, it forcibly sank Mu Continent.
After all, if it spread to the entire Mu Continent, there would be no Haiyuan City in the current civilization. As a relic of the previous civilization Mu Continent, Haiyuan City proves that the real reason for the destruction of Mu Continent was its sinking. Although the area annihilated by the pseudo-black hole was large, it was not the main reason for the destruction of Mu Continent.
This time, considering that Hen and others will no longer risk their lives to delay the diffusion time and impact of the pseudo-black hole, time may be faster than in the previous life.
"Feng, can I act alone for a while?" Lilith looked at Zhu Yufeng and said.
Zhu Yufeng thought for a moment, then said, "Okay, but you must prioritize your own safety. We must evacuate Mu Continent as quickly as possible."
"Then I'll leave first~" Lilith kissed Zhu Yufeng on the face quite naturally and ran away, "Oh, by the way, it's up to you to think of the name for our child~"
Zhu Yufeng: “…”
Although it might be possible to say so, but... I always feel that it is not right to say so, as nothing happened between Lilith and me...
Well, he actually wanted to know why the child could have a telepathic connection with himself and Lilith, and according to normal procedures, the child would definitely be left behind in the end, and Lilith probably wouldn't pay too much attention to raising the child, so the task of raising the child would probably fall on his shoulders again.
Thinking back now, Zhu Yufeng still feels quite complicated about suddenly becoming a "father".
After all, it suddenly appeared, and how much affection he would devote to this child was still unknown. He had thought about the day when he would have a child, but before that, he should have accompanied the mother for ten months of pregnancy. Now, he had skipped this process and the infant stage...
By the way, it seems that Alicia hasn't said much...
Zhu Yufeng looked at Alicia. To be honest, he was a little surprised that Alicia didn't even object this time. After all, she had chosen to implement the second plan when the tragedy of restraint occurred... Well, although the two look similar and both seem to be choosing between the minority and the majority, they are actually two completely different events.
Mu Continent has now become an obstacle to the fire moths and a major hidden danger of civil war breaking out among humans in the future. For the survival of civilization and not to perish in civil war, there is no big problem in abandoning Mu Continent.
In the tragedy of the restraint, apart from the city destroyed by Michael, there were only three human settlements left. In order to fill the upper limit of the Divine Grace barrier, at least one city's population had to be consumed. Because the number was too large and difficult to manage, once the survivors escaped and the other two cities knew about it, it would undoubtedly once again shake the already fragmented people's hearts.
Even if no survivors escaped, there would always be someone inside the Fire Moth who knew the truth of the matter. A few months after the tragedy of the restraint, the soldiers went crazy in despair. If they implemented the first plan themselves, someone would eventually know, and the result would not change in the end.
In the final analysis, no matter which plan is adopted, the final result... for civilization, from today's perspective, is a chronic death.
The tragedy of constraints is such an unsolvable dead end.
For the survival of civilization, Alicia wants to stabilize the unstable people's hearts, and for the survival of civilization, she wants to preserve the remaining fighting force.
You can only choose one of the two, and no matter which one you choose, it cannot change the outcome of the demise of civilization. It is a complete dead end.
Anyway, things like Mu Continent are completely incomparable to the tragedy of restraint.
Alicia looked at Zhu Yufeng, found that Zhu Yufeng was also looking at her, and then looked away.
This choice was not a pleasant one for her. In her previous life, no one expected the Ninth Herrscher to do this. In this life, everyone knew that the Ninth Herrscher would do this, but in the end, he still gave up on Mu Continent as before.
What has happened will happen again... If in the end, if he is still the same as in the last life...
The moment he saw the Honkai energy interference bomb causing damage to Feng, perhaps he had already made his choice.
Mu Continent Palace.
The news of the Ninth Herrscher's self-destruction has reached the palace. Mu Continent has used all existing equipment to measure the pseudo-black hole created by the Ninth Herrscher. The final conclusion is that Mu Continent will sink in a very short time and there will be no countermeasures.
The ministers had already returned to their homes to find ways to escape. The king sat quietly on his throne, staring at the empty palace.
He sent his eldest son Augustus to Murstein with the most elite soldiers and the most advanced equipment in Mu Continent. Judging from the current results, Augustus has already...
As a king, he could of course leave, but where could he go? He was the king of Mu Continent, and only the king of Mu Continent.
To make him admit that he was wrong? And then to bow to the fire moth and throw all the glory of the country to the ground?
No, he would not do that. He was the king, so he had to do what a king should do. He had already sent his children away, and he himself would stay here... as the last king, sinking with this country.
The king closed his eyes and began to recall his life. Suddenly, footsteps and the sound of liquid dripping on the ground were heard in the empty hall. The king opened his eyes and saw...
Lilith smiled as she held the heads of her second son and two daughters in her hands.
"It's better for a family to be together, right? I spent a lot of time bringing them here, but luckily I didn't waste much time."
