Collapse, I save everything alone

Mingyu's purpose was very clear. Knowing that the Pseudo-Ruleholder would most likely be born here, he had no intention of going anywhere else first.

As for the reason, it is quite simple:

"Qianyu Academy was originally the birthplace of the Third Herrscher. The concentration of Houkai energy is definitely higher than in other areas, so it naturally needs to be inspected first."

In fact, this is exactly what is shown on the Houkai energy distribution map of Changkong City sent by the Science Department of St. Freya Academy.

Therefore, Mei and Bronya had no questions about his arrangement.

Standing at the entrance of the gate, Mingyu closed his eyes slightly.

——He is using his ability to go back in time to confirm whether the Pseudo-Ruleholder has appeared.

Soon, he opened his eyes.

Judging from the results, the Pseudo-Ruleholder has not been born for at least the next three hours.

It seems that they came earlier than originally expected.

In this case, there is another way to deal with the task that Theresa assigned to them.

He turned around and said to the two girls beside him:

"Let's split up and if we encounter a Honkai beast that we can't handle alone, we can call on each other for support."

Bronya nodded silently, and under the protection of the heavily-armored Bunny, she slowly floated towards the east side of Chiba Academy.

After saying goodbye to him, Mei headed towards the central area with a sword in hand.

After watching the two of them go away, Mingyu touched his chin and quickly walked to a deserted place.

Here, he called out Yaezakura who was hiding in his body.

"I'll trouble you with Bronya's matter."

The cherry-colored girl nodded and left immediately.

"Huh... Then, let's go find Mei."

Mingyu walked along a certain path with ease and took a detour to look for the girl.

After all, the birth of the Pseudo-Herrscher was due to the self-condensation of excessive Honkai energy.

Therefore, as long as the overflowing Honkai energy in the city can be absorbed in advance, wouldn't it be easier to suppress the birth of Pseudo-Hermenders?

Even the frequency of the birth of Honkai beasts will be greatly reduced.

Theresa's belief that with the current technology of the Destiny, it is not possible to completely cure the cities polluted by the Honkai is not entirely wrong.

It is true that human technology cannot handle it for now...but, if we ask for help from beings other than humans, it is possible.

Hmm... wouldn't it be enough if we just let a Herrscher-level being actively absorb the Honkai Impact 3rd here?

Theoretically, Kiana and Mei can do the same thing now.

However, Kiana is still unable to accept the power of the Herrscher of the Void. If she rashly absorbs a large amount of Honkai energy, it will almost certainly awaken the Herrscher consciousness in her body, allowing Sirin to control the body.

And that idiot is probably still being trained by Theresa...

Therefore, now we can only ask Sister Lei Lu in Mei's body for help.

Mingyu hasn't seen her since the last time on the rooftop, so this time is a chance.

Chapter 27 Goodbye

The purple-haired girl walked between the silent teaching buildings.

She was extremely familiar with this place and this school.

Not long ago, she was studying here as an ordinary person and had never come into contact with something called Honkai.

A disaster changed her life and also changed the lives of these girls lying on the ground.

She could still call out the names of many of the figures lying on the ground.

Not long ago, they were all around her, always paying homage to her, but in the three months after her father went to prison, everyone became afraid of her and kept their distance from her.

It was then that she realized that she actually had no real friends before.

However, after coming to Saint Freya, her situation had changed.

Whether it is Kiana, Fu Hua and Bronya as classmates, or Himeko and Theresa as elders, they are all sincerely kind to me.

She genuinely loves living there.

Of course, there is Mingyu...

Thinking of that person, the girl's cheeks couldn't help but turn slightly red.

It was he who woke me up on the rooftop, and that kind of thing happened...

As a daughter who has always been well taken care of by her father, she has rarely had the opportunity to come into contact with the opposite sex other than her father since she was a child.

Not to mention after attending the girls' school, Senba Academy.

Although she had little contact with the opposite sex, she had seen things about this.

Well, those romance novels and comics that are popular among girls.

Every young girl has fantasized about being a princess and being rescued by a knight.

Moreover, Mingyu did in fact save her.

So, she still cares about him especially.

Miss Mingyu, Mingyu is here.

His figure was reflected in her eyes.

Mei asked in surprise:

"Hey... Mingyu, why are you here?"

"Mei, I finally found you. I found a girl in the classroom over there. The amount of Honkai energy in her body is already quite high."

Mingyu pointed forward.

Soon, he brought Mei to the corresponding classroom.

There were many lifeless corpses lying all over the classroom, but there was one that was particularly different.

——It was a green-haired girl, she was lying flat on the classroom floor, her face was distorted, and she was obviously immersed in pain.

From the student ID card dropped next to her, we can learn that her name is Yuno.

Beside her, there were some vines looming, spreading out from all parts of her body and growing hard, as if helping her absorb the Honkai energy in the surrounding environment.

Although the girl has not woken up yet, it is obvious that if she is given some more time, she will be completely resurrected as a Pseudo-Hermit.

"She...is she still alive?"

Mei looked at the girl on the ground with some concern.

Mingyu nodded and said:

"Well, I just checked, she does still have some vital signs, but the concentration of Honkai energy in her body is constantly rising."

It seems that when the collapse of Changkong City just broke out, the girl named Yuno must have been attacked by the assassins and the Honkai beasts, and was infected by the Honkai energy and fainted.

However, she did not lose everything because she had a good resistance to Honkai energy. After Mei left Changkong City, the Honkai energy that remained here spontaneously condensed towards her body, trying to give birth to a new Herrscher.

Although they have not yet fully awakened, the vines already have certain self-defense mechanisms.

Mingyu demonstrated it to Meiyi. He hooked his finger, used electromagnetic force to attract a pen on the table, and controlled it to fly towards the girl lying on the ground.

The pen was only halfway in its flight when it was snapped into two pieces by a vine that suddenly sprouted up.

In addition, obvious signs of erosion can be seen at the broken parts where they come into contact with the vines.

——It’s highly poisonous!

"Then...if I report this to Principal Theresa now..."

Mei suggested.

If another Herrscher really was born, even if it was just a pseudo-Herscher, with the abilities of her, Mingyu and Bronya, it would probably be dangerous to deal with it.

To be on the safe side, it would be better to report this to Theresa and let her make the arrangements.

"Of course this is also a solution... Let the more powerful seniors in the academy eliminate her, but we may have other options."

Mingyu looked at the girl named Yuno on the ground and said:

"It will take several hours to get from St. Freya Academy to Changkong City. Judging from the current concentration of Houkai energy, she will probably have completely transformed into a new Herrscher by that time."

Well, a pseudo-lawmaker is also a lawmaker, there is nothing wrong with that.

By that time, she would be completely hopeless - after all, not everyone is like Mei, who can give birth to a new personality from the stigmata to help herself withstand the erosion of the Honkai will.

Therefore, if things really drag on until Yuno becomes a pseudo-herrscher, the only way out is to completely destroy him.

"Perhaps, we still have a way to save her. Not to let her die as a Herrscher, but... a way to have the best of both worlds."

If you can save people, it is better to save them.

"Well... what should we do?"

Mei asked with some curiosity.

Although she has been studying very hard, she still lacks all kinds of knowledge related to Honkai.

"To accomplish this, I still have to rely on you, Mei."

"……I?"

The girl asked somewhat confusedly.

Afterwards, Mingyu told Mei about his plans and ideas.

——She awakens another personality in her body and hands over the control of her body to Sister Lei Lu, so that she can absorb the Houkai energy in Yuno's body as a Herrscher.

"I...I'll give it a try."

Although her tone was weak, Mei still spoke firmly.

She closed her eyes and focused her attention on her own spiritual world.

Ever since she woke up on the rooftop that day, she knew that another personality had appeared in her body.

Perhaps because of fear, or perhaps because of self-blame, she never tried to communicate with her.

Even though Mingyu had proposed it to her before, she still didn't have enough courage to try it.

But now, if it's to save people...

Although Mingyu told her that the disaster in Changkong City was not entirely her fault, she still felt guilty when she saw the victims scattered across the campus and the city.

So, if there's anything I can do...

In the darkness, the girl caught a glimpse of a figure with a faint purple glow.

The exact same voice as mine came from her mouth, but the tone was completely different from mine:

"Heh, I didn't expect that a coward like you would come to me on your own initiative."

Chapter 28 Exchange, transaction.

The other party's tone was very sharp, which frightened the weak Mei so much that she took two steps back and couldn't help but feel like retreating.

However, thinking of the purpose of coming here to meet the other party, she took a deep breath, mustered up the courage and said:

"...I want to borrow your power to help others."

"You? Borrow mine?"

The purple-haired figure was a little surprising.

Although she has always been hiding deep in Mei's heart, it doesn't mean that she is unaware of what is happening in the outside world.

Rather, although she remained quiet, she was indeed keeping an eye on everything going on in the outside world.
