Honkai, they all became my stigmata

However, Chen Yu took the first step and grabbed the beret in his hand.

Pressing the hat on top of the girl's head again, he turned over and jumped back inside from the edge of the tower.

"Okay, you've been fooled by the wind, you'd better come down, don't catch a cold."

"it is good……"

The girl held down her beret, and came down from the brim in a relatively graceful posture.

"Where do you want to go in your spare time tomorrow?"

Dust Feather asked.

Thanks to Rita's cooperation, he and Anna's shifting time was around noon, which allowed him to prevent Anna's situation.

"Well, I want to go..."

The girl thought of various possibilities in her mind, and replied with a brisk voice, but the voice stopped abruptly.

To be precise, this was not her subjective wish, but she was forced to stop speaking.

The surroundings were suddenly plunged into darkness, which made the girl feel a bit at a loss.

She tried to shout, but no one responded, and tried to move, but it was just a futile attempt.

Soon, Anna realizes that this is not reality, but her inner world.

Immediately afterwards, in this world of nothing, a cluster of light began to spread.He took root, sprouted, and grew in Anna's consciousness, and quickly formed a giant tree spreading everywhere.

Afterwards, the giant tree seemed to turn into light again, causing some kind of violent and imperceptible consciousness to be born here.

It was an almost irresistible erosion of will, which made Anna quickly realize that something was wrong with her body and consciousness.

This was a situation she had never encountered before, but she remembered the topic she had discussed with Chen Yu not long ago - [If I became a Herrscher].

There is no doubt that this is the extension of that hypothesis, and the sudden explosion of the Houkai energy around it also confirms this point.

She, Anna Shaniat, became the host for a new Herrscher.

Herrscher consciousness, is robbing her for control of this body.

Fortunately, the power of the stigmata of the Shaniat clan flowing from her blood allowed her to recover a little bit of sobriety, and briefly regained control of her body.

She clutched her head, and the mutual struggle between her spirits made her unable to stand even for a while, so she could only kneel down on the ground.

Anna heard footsteps, the person she cared about was gradually approaching her side.

"Chen, don't... come near me..."

she said reluctantly.

But he didn't stop.

"Let's go...!"

The collapse in the body can become a little out of control. After all, it is the first time for Anna to face such a sudden situation, and she can't completely suppress it.

She couldn't imagine what would happen if Honkai overflowed from her body.

...But she really couldn't suppress it anymore.

"Come on!!!"

She only had time to leave one last word of urging, and then, the dazzling Honkai could erupt at the top of the Ladder of Galaxy, at an altitude of 300 meters.

On the top of the Ladder of Galaxy, the ice blooms like a blooming snow lotus.

Afterwards, an unstoppable burst of ice quickly froze the Ladder of Galaxy from top to bottom into ice sculptures, and at the same time, snowflakes began to fall across the entire area of ​​the Coral Island located on the equator.

The fifth collapse has arrived.

Chapter 27

Gentle, like melting ice and snow

Although Anna tried her best to stop it, the unstoppable cold wave still broke out centering on herself, dyeing the entire ladder of galaxies white.

And the solid ice that spread from her body stretched out under the premise of completely going against her will, and stabbed at the person closest to her.

Although she hadn't touched it personally, the ice was like an extension of her own body, making her feel the ice piercing through something—it was human flesh and blood.

"No...it's not like that..."

Anna was talking to herself helplessly.

She didn't dare to raise her head, didn't dare to open her eyes, for fear of seeing the person pierced by the ice.

Such a high concentration of Houkai can explode, even if the body is equivalent to an A-level Valkyrie, it is impossible to bear it. As an A-level Valkyrie, she naturally understands.

And this self-blame and remorse also weakened the spiritual defense line in her heart that was contending with the Herrscher's consciousness, and the balance seemed to be tilting towards him.

In a trance, all the negative emotions that the girl had experienced in the collapse of Manila two years ago reappeared.

That weak self...that powerless self...that self who can't do anything...

Despair, destruction, and dark wills are spreading in her mind, seeming to drag her into a bottomless abyss.

"I……"

Anna thought hard.

She should do something.

It was already very difficult to fight against the will from the darkness, she thought she could only procrastinate for a little while, and she would still be eroded and swallowed by that will in the end.

Now that she understands that she has been chosen to be the Herrscher, she must act immediately to reduce the losses she has caused.

Myself...or this Herrscher's ability seems to be to control ice and snow. If that's the case, let's seal myself with ice here, and wait for the presence of a Herrscher who can deal with it.

Bianca, no, Senior Rita is also on Coral Island. This is a lucky thing. As an S-rank Valkyrie, she has the ability to handle herself well...

The girl thought so, she closed her eyes, stretched out her hand reluctantly, trying to stir the Houkai energy gathered around her, and create ice that could seal herself.

But her attempt quickly ushered in failure, and those Houkai energy lost contact with her and could not be controlled.

"...Is it because my control ability is not enough?"

Anna instinctively believed that it was the influence of another will in her heart that was eroding her, making her unable to use the Herrscher's ability normally.

But she soon discovered that this was a wrong and outrageous judgment, because the out-of-control Houkai energy just simply disappeared.

Even her own strength is fading rapidly, and the ramblings in her mind seem to be slowly dissipating.

It was an ability that had nothing to do with her, but it made her feel very familiar and intimate, like a feeling connected by blood.

This is not something her strength can do, the girl hastily opened her eyes.

What caught her eyes was not the extreme cold hell she had imagined, but gentle eyes.

——And, the blood flowing from the wound on his body, which should have been frozen in this ultra-low temperature state, but was actually unaffected.

The blood condensed and gathered, turning into a bloody lotus between the two, which made Anna feel warm inexplicably.

Gentle, like melting ice and snow.

........................

Under the Ladder of the Galaxy.

While the ice lotus was blooming in the sky, various levels of Houkai can invade the entire coral island, and a large number of Houkai beasts appeared in various parts of the town.

"The first team, the second team, and the third team, cooperate with the divine machine of destiny, and implement the civilian protection and rescue measures to prevent the Houkai beast from breaking through the defense line and invading the fringe residential areas."

Inside the Immortal Blade's camp, Rita was calmly planning her actions.

"The fourth team will attack with me later, and clean up the Houkai beasts around the Ladder of Galaxy."

Thanks to her and Chen Yu's pre-emptive measures, most of the areas where Houkai Beast descended are already no-man's land, and only a small number of them appeared on the verge of crowds.

Of course, it is impossible for a Honkai outbreak to be unscathed, but compared to the previous large-scale Honkai, they have saved the lives of most people.

The Valkyries who received the order started to act separately.

Rita immediately dialed another person's communication.

"Yalvette, how is the investigation on Herrscher?"

Known as the "tool man of the immortal blade", the Valkyrie who is proficient in intelligence collection and investigation quickly responded:

"Report to Deputy Captain Rita, according to the current detection and analysis results of the concentration of Houkai energy, the entire coral island has the highest concentration of Houkai energy, and the area with the highest concentration is located at the top of the Ladder of Galaxy."

At the top... She remembered that Chen Yu and Anna happened to be heading there just before noon...

Rita nodded thoughtfully.

It seems that the conjectures she and Chen Yu had guessed are about to become a reality.

"It was detected that there are a large number of frozen creations with high concentration of Houkai energy on the top of the ladder of the galaxy. Although the ability has not yet been fully understood, but for the time being..."

In the communicator, Alvette, the Valkyrie of the Immortal Blade, is quickly reporting the results.

"Headquarters of Destiny named the fifth Herrscher's code name [Ice Herrscher]."

Alvette continued:

"According to the place where the Herrscher was born, the situation of missing contact, and the entry and exit records of the Ladder of Galaxy, the Herrscher born in this collapse is likely to be [Anna Shaniat]."

"Well, I see. I will go up and take a look after dealing with the Houkai herd in the nearby area."

Rita nodded, showing the attitude of knowing this piece of information just now.

"Hey, but, according to the policy of cooperation with the World Snake you mentioned earlier, isn't the Herrscher's handling handled by the World Snake?"

After the Immortal Blade's team entered Coral Island, Rita had already disclosed the relevant situation to them.

This is a collaboration between Destiny and the World Serpent.

What Destiny needs to do here is to implement routine Honkai response operations, clean up Honkai beasts, and protect the people.

As for the Herrscher's countermeasures, the cadres on the World Snake side are fully responsible.

Alvette is actually very curious, who can single-handedly deal with lawmakers?The only one who can do this kind of thing... in her mind is their invincible captain, Mrs. Ulandal.

In other words... that world snake cadre is not even inferior to the strongest Valkyrie?

"I'm not going to deal with Herrscher, I just want to search for the Valkyrie we have lost contact with, that's all."

The woman with gray-blonde short hair nodded slightly and replied with a slight smile.

Reasonable use of rules and adaptability are the basic abilities of a perfect maid.

Chapter 28

Jianzhang Leilu's old sister: Today I will change my name and surname, and call it...

Somewhere in the hidden base of the world snake.

Unlike the headquarters of the World Snake, few people approach it here, and it is a secluded and deep place.

The only ones who come here occasionally are gray snakes in black hoodies who look like grown men. Other than that, only the World Snake Mecha patrolling here according to a fixed procedure is responsible for solving the problems that often appear here suddenly. Honkai Beast.

Here——is where the feathered rabbit is.

Because of the particularity of Yutu itself, the excessive and uncontrollable Honkai energy dissipated, not to mention ordinary humans, even the low-ranking Honkai beasts cannot withstand the damage of this concentration.

So she couldn't be in the real headquarters with other world snake cadres, and could only stay alone in this quiet place a certain distance from the headquarters.

This would have been a long lonely wait, but with the arrival and joining of someone, it changed her lonely days.

"Are you ready, Seele?"

Outside a simple Siberian log cabin, a white-haired woman is watching with great interest the upcoming combat training in the open space.

The one who needs to be trained is a well-behaved girl.

Perhaps due to the influence of two other girls with the same essence as her, she also chose the sickle as her weapon.

"Well, sister Mysterin, thank you for your willingness to help me."

"It's nothing, Xi'er, it's just a matter of effort for me."
