……

After using electromagnetic force to control the armored vehicle to retreat to a safe area, Mingyu focused his attention on the Honkai beast in front of him.

In terms of combat effectiveness, Joyce, who has not yet awakened his Herrscher ability, and the two doctors who are already powerless are indeed far inferior to him.

Perhaps because it was a long time ago, the Honkai beasts of this era were much inferior to the modern ones in terms of strength and number, so it was not difficult for him to deal with them.

After clearing the area along the traffic jam, this should be the last place where Honkai beasts are active.

The barnacle-shaped Honkai beast, paralyzed by the electric current, finally reacted and attacked him again, but Mingyu easily grabbed one of its tentacles.

The excessive electric current was transmitted directly into its body through physical contact. After a violent tremor, the Honkai beast finally lost its life and fell completely to the ground.

"Phew, anyway, this should be the last one around here... Let's go back to Joyce and the others."

Mingyu clapped his hands.

After training seriously in Saint Freya for a period of time, his strength has improved to a considerable extent, and it is no problem for him to clear out these Honkai beasts.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, his heart suddenly began to beat faster.

Specifically, it was like the feeling I had when I saw Rita on Hyperion some time ago, a direct feeling that a strong person was approaching.

Sure enough, soon a golden figure fell from the sky and landed in front of him.

She has blonde hair, blue eyes, Roman curly ends, and is wearing a white knight's suit embellished with gold decorations.

She held a beautiful white spear in her hand, which was the Sixth God's Key - Black Abyss White Flower.

After landing in front of Mingyu, she introduced herself directly:

"I am Leanna Brigantia, the Valkyrie of the Skyward Headquarters, and I am here on the orders of the Bishop to deal with the collapse of New York."

"Hello, I'm Ming Yu from the North American branch."

He recognized that this heroic Valkyrie was the most powerful Valkyrie of this era and the holder of the Black Abyss White Flower.

Moreover, unlike Kallen Kaslana five hundred years ago and Cecilia Shanyat in the future, this Leanna has been sitting on the position of the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny for a hundred years.

This is not because of her special physique. No matter how special her physique is, it cannot compare to the bloodline of Kaslana or Shaniyat.

The real reason was that she had accepted the body transformation of the Bishop of Destiny. Over a period of one hundred years, she had undergone thousands of body transformation operations, constantly replacing various parts of her body with soul steel, and finally built her body into the current soul steel body.

He is tireless, has strength beyond that of ordinary people, and his combat power does not decline over time. At the same time, he is also able to wield the power of the Black Abyss White Flower.

In a sense, rather than calling her a Valkyrie, it would be better to regard her as a machine, a tireless war machine.

Leanna smiled and said:

"I originally came here to clear out the nearby Honkai beasts, but I didn't expect that you had already cleared them all. You did a good job, young man."

"Thank you for the compliment... So, you have eliminated all the Honkai beasts in other areas of New York?"

Mingyu asked.

Leanna nodded noncommittally.

"As expected of an S-rank..."

Mingyu said silently in his heart.

She single-handedly cleared out the Honkai beasts in most areas of the city in a very fast manner, and lived up to her status as the Chief Valkyrie of Destiny.

"However, just cleaning it up once cannot completely solve the crisis in this city. Mingyu, I will now recruit you as a soldier under my jurisdiction. In the future, you will continue to be on guard against the collapsed creations."

Leanna said seriously.

As long as the source of Honkai energy has not been completely resolved, Honkai beasts will continue to appear in every corner of the city.

After the tragedy in Berlin three years ago, she did not intend to apply to the headquarters to dispatch an inexperienced force to New York before investigating the situation here clearly, so as to avoid any unexpected accidents.

"I have no objection, but I have some companions over there, so we should act together for now."

Mingyu pointed in the direction of the road.

Joyce and the others are still waiting there.

Leanna nodded and said briskly:

"Let me go meet them."

Chapter 38: The First Herrscher Fights for Humanity

What happened next was roughly the same as what happened in history. Rianna, the chief Valkyrie of Destiny, reunited with Joyce and his group, and they ran around New York City together.

Evacuate the people, treat patients affected by Honkai energy, and eliminate Honkai beasts.

Because her entire body is made of soul steel, the tireless Leanna can use the zero-rated power of the Black Abyss White Flower at will to heal the people and ensure their survival.

They temporarily stayed in a crowded clinic, which housed many refugees. However, due to another sudden attack by the Honkai beast, Mingyu and Leanna temporarily left the clinic and went to clean up the surrounding areas.

At this time, Schrödinger, who had already transformed into a half-honkai beast, should have already arrived, and was semi-forcing Joyce to awaken the power of the Herrscher...

Mingyu thought as he dealt with the Honkai beast in front of him.

He would not interfere with Joyce's inevitable journey to awakening as a Herrscher.

"Young man, you fight very skillfully and your strength is quite good... A Fate Knight of this level cannot be unknown. Why have I never heard of your name before?"

Leanna also suddenly threw out the Black Abyss White Flower, easily piercing through the Honkai Beast in front of her, and asked in the interval of the battle.

"…Because I served in a relatively safe place before, I didn't have many opportunities to create military merits."

Mingyu's mouth twitched.

The role substitution in this virtual scene is a bit too crude...

"By the way, why did Senior Leanna choose to transform her body?"

He changed the subject, distracting Leanna.

After all, this is not reality. As an existence projected by data, he will not dwell on his identity.

As a Valkyrie who has been active for a hundred years, Leanna's soul steel body is no unknown secret within the Destiny.

Sure enough, Leanna thought for a moment and did not continue to pursue Mingyu's identity. Instead, she answered:

"Because war is war, and it will always bring destruction, and that...will never change."

Even if you have good intentions, you must endure the sacrifices that come with it that you cannot control.

"The Honkai is there. We can't bargain with it, and it won't listen to any of our reasoning. It won't fear its own sacrifice, nor will it pity our sacrifice, and it doesn't even care what this planet will become."

The battle against Honkai that lasted for a hundred years made her deeply understand a truth: unless humans completely and thoroughly disappeared from the earth without a single one left, Honkai would never stop.

She said calmly:

"So, from the beginning, this was a do-or-die battle. At that time, I found the bishop and volunteered to be his experimental subject. In this way, I could always stand on the front line against the Honkai and reduce the sacrifices of others."

To some extent, she is immortal, and as long as she is not defeated by the Honkai beast, she can devote herself to this war endlessly.

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

At the same time, near the clinic.

Einstein barely controlled the newly cracked Star of Eden to form an energy shield to confront the attacking girl.

But it is obvious that how can she, who is sharpening her weapons before the battle, be a match for the girl who has obtained the power of Honkai?

The girl, whose entire body had been eroded by Honkai energy, taunted mercilessly:

"Haha... you little white face who can only hide behind girls, do you want to watch Einstein sacrifice himself for you?"

She has two pink cat ears on her head, her left eye has collapsed, and her right hand and exposed chest have also completely collapsed and transformed into a beast.

The visitor was none other than Dr. Schrödinger, who was obviously severely infected by Honkai energy.

Surprisingly, even in this state, she managed to maintain her sanity.

And everything she is doing now is not without purpose——

"Listen carefully. If you really want to prove that you are different from the Herrschers recorded in ancient documents, if you want to prove that you will not lose to your Herrscher instincts... No..."

She curled her lips slightly and changed her words to be more stimulating:

"If you want to prove that you are still a man of courage, then take up your weapon and defeat me head-on!"

"..."

The dark blue-haired man in front of him was silent for a long time.

After Schrödinger completely revealed his identity as the Herrscher, he suddenly became aware of a voice that he had forgotten in the past.

That voice was tirelessly guiding him, telling him that destruction and devouring were his duties. The urge to destroy surged from every cell in his body, as if to take away his control over this body.

Destroy, annihilate, burn everything.

Take revenge on the Destiny Organization that has tortured you for three years, and on this world.

But at the same time, countless voices flashed through his mind, including soldiers, children, psychologists, and ordinary housewives.

Joyce realized that those voices were those of ordinary people who had died in Berlin.

Many memories came to mind.

The moment he was born in Berlin, all he saw was devastation and flames of war.

Reluctant to give up, he walked around the disaster site, picking up things and taking the fragments of his soul into his own body.

At the moment of his birth, a voice as gentle as flying flowers once whispered to him, asking him to engrave the souls of these victims in his body.

"Engrave their thoughts into your soul."

He did so, and at that moment, the thoughts of three hundred thousand people were coexisting in his body.

Because the voice of the Honkai Will began to seduce him, the minds of 300,000 people decided not to remain silent anymore.

This was a victory for ordinary people. Three hundred thousand thoughts helped him completely overcome the temptation of the will of collapse and maintain his intact self.

He stood up, walked to Dr. Einstein, and took the Star of Eden from her hands.

Due to the urgency of time, Dr. Einstein did not actually teach him how to use the Star of Eden, but the moment Joyce touched it, he immediately understood how to use this legendary Key of God.

How to use it, the tricks of driving it, everything is clearly displayed in front of you.

Joyce understood in his heart, perhaps, this was his innate ability.

Schrödinger used his right arm, which had been transformed into a Honkai beast, to shoot out a beam of Honkai energy. At the same time, Joyce controlled the Star of Eden to shoot out a gravity wave. The two dangerous energies collided with each other and were in a stalemate.

"What's wrong, Walter? Have you used all your strength? Is this the only ability of the so-called Herrscher?"

She was very happy with Joyce's change, but this alone was far from enough.

If he couldn't even kill her, how could he save everything in this city and face the conspirator behind the scenes?

"Dr. Schrödinger, you...are not my enemy."

The blue-haired young man closed his eyes slightly, then opened them and sighed.

"How ridiculous! I really want to kill you now."

"No, I don't object to that... You do want to kill me, and if you do, it will be another good outcome for everyone."

The death of a Herrscher is never bad news.

Joyce said calmly:

"But even if you really want to kill me, you are not my enemy. I am sure of that."

"What on earth do you want to say? Who do you think you are?"

Schrodinger questioned.

"...To be honest, I don't know what I am right now. At this moment, there are countless voices whispering, shouting, and talking in my body."

Joyce closed his eyes, as if listening to the voice in his body, and then he said with determination:

“There is a voice that keeps tempting me to destroy everything, but at the same time, there are more voices that encourage me to create blessings for the world and make it a better place.

"The only thing I can be sure of is that if you kill me, they...the last remnants of them left in this world will also be gone, so...

"Dr. Schrödinger, if you really want to fight me to the death, I will not sit still and wait for death. After this battle is over, I will still realize the most beautiful possibilities among those countless voices!"
