Therefore, the young man could only lower his head in despair.

I hope this Guhuo bird can move faster when it attacks.

——Sizzle!

The sound of flesh being torn apart could be heard.

The next moment, a head fell to the ground and rolled under the young man.

“Ah! Ahhh!!!”

The young man shouted in horror.

But after a closer look, the young man was shocked to find that this was not the head of his group - but the head of the Guhuo bird just now!

The young man subconsciously looked up and saw a mature red-haired beauty wearing red armor and holding a damaged sword standing in front of him, looking down at her feet with a serious expression.

The Guhuo bird that had just been trampled under the feet of this mature beauty had now become a trembling headless corpse.

"Although this thing is not exactly the same...but it is also a type of Honkai beast, right?"

The red-haired woman took a little blood from the big sword, looked at the slightly purple blood and spoke in a low voice.

The young man who saw this scene said in panic: "You... who are you!?"

This person is naturally Wuliangta Jizi.

At this time, Wuliangta Jizi looked up at the young man's question, but did not say anything. Instead, she took a step forward, grabbed the young man's neck, and threw him straight back.

"Whoa!"

The young man screamed and was thrown out, falling heavily to the ground, rolling several times on the flat floor before coming to a stop.

Covering his lumbar spine, the young man cried out in pain: "It hurts, it hurts!"

When the young man came back to his senses from the pain and looked up at Wuliangta Jizi, he was horrified to find that a huge bull head was biting the stone slabs on the ground where he was just now.

——It was the first monster that came out just now, or the monster-type Honkai beast - Ushio-Oni.

If Wuliangta Jizi hadn't thrown him out just now, he would have met his companions in the stomach of the cow demon.

And at this moment, a shout of strength rang out.

“——Haha!”

In an instant, a big sword was swung out by Wuliangta Jizi fiercely, and it hit the bull ghost's head straight, directly cutting the bull ghost's head into two halves.

Half of its head flew out and smashed into the group of Yokai-type Honkai beasts, becoming the target of their scramble. The other half fell to the ground along with the lower half of its spider body, with purple blood continuously flowing out.

"Tsk!"

After killing the monster, Wuliangta Jizi looked at the other monsters that were still fighting for the human remains and pouring out of the gate, and asked loudly: "Hey, what's going on over there?"

Muliangta Himeko is also from Area 11. Although she cannot recognize the appearance of most of these monster-type Honkai beasts, she can recognize that the appearances of several of them are the more famous monsters in myths and legends.

——This was the first time that even Himeko Murata had foreseen such a thing.

If it is a coincidence that the appearance of Honkai Beast is similar to the legendary monster, it can be said to be a coincidence.

There's obviously a reason why so many of these monsters look exactly like the ones in myths and legends.

Therefore, Wuliangta Jizi directly asked the only survivor, hoping to get some information from him.

"Ugh?"

When the young man heard Wuliangta Jizi's question, he was stunned for a moment, then he realized that she was asking him.

But at this moment the young man had no desire to answer at all. Instead, after finally recovering from the shock and pain, he stood up and ran towards the exit, completely ignoring the appearance of Muliangta Himeko.

"what?"

Seeing this scene, the veins on Wuliangta Jizi's forehead bulged slightly and the corners of her mouth twitched.

Although it is not wrong for a civilian to make survival his first priority after the collapse, he should at least talk about the previous intelligence.

and……

"…Hey, I saved you, at least answer a few questions before running away."

After complaining in a low voice, Muliangta Himeko put the fleeing young man behind her and turned to look at the monsters in front of her.

Because at this time, these monsters had already shared the remains of the corpses and turned their attention to Wuliangta Jizi who was blocking the way out.

"Humph, it's just a Honkai beast."

After taking a deep breath of the somewhat polluted air, Wuliangta Jizi clenched the sword in her hand: "——Nexus system activated!"

In an instant, blue and white electric light began to appear on the armor, and bursts of lightning burst out from the greatsword in his hand.

The next moment, Wuliangta Jizi swung the sword in her hand directly at the Honkai beast in front of her.

In an instant, the electric light on Wuliangta Jizi's body grew explosively. At the same time, a light blue blade light broke out from Wuliangta Jizi's sword and flew straight towards these strange Honkai beasts!

The blade that had once cut off the Templar-level Honkai beast of Tomie Kawakami could easily cut off the bodies of these Honkai beasts - just like a sharp knife cutting through tofu. The blue blade light drew a purple bloody path directly through the group of Honkai beasts, crushing several Honkai beasts straight away before gradually dissipating.

And this is just the beginning, because following closely behind the sword light is Wuliangta Jizi!

Under the stimulation of the Valkyrie's encounter with the Nexus system, Wuliangta Jiko, whose physical functions were greatly enhanced, was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. Every time she swung the sword, at least one Honkai beast would be killed. The blade light that flashed and leaped out from the sword would kill several Honkai beasts in succession before dissipating.

However, even so, more and more monster-type Honkai beasts emerged from this cave.

There was a monster called Hair Demon with black hair, a monster called Train with wheels burning with flames, a monster called Kamaitachi with sharp blades on its arms and a mouse-like appearance... All kinds of Honkai beasts with terrifying monster appearances rushed out of the gate one after another, and then crashed into the greatsword of Himeko Murata and died.

Although it was becoming increasingly difficult to cope with the situation, but knowing that there was a shrine not far away and a city at the foot of the mountain, Himeko Muliangta did not retreat a single step. She was like a reef in the waves, guarding the cave in front of her tightly and blocking countless Honkai beasts in the cave!

While Muliangta Himeko and Honkai Beast were fighting to the death in the cave, the young man who was escaping also crawled out of the cave.

“Ha…hahaha…”

The young man ran away while shouting in fear: "What was that? This kind of thing... I have never heard of this kind of thing!"

"How can there be such a thing under the shrine!?"

But the young man had just run a few steps out of the cave and was about to escape to the shrine and use transportation to go down the mountain when he suddenly heard a crisp sound of landing behind him.

——Click!

The next moment, a feeling like a wild beast pouncing on him came from the young man's back. Remember, the huge force from his back pressed the young man to the ground!

"No! Don't!!"

The young man, thinking that a monster was chasing him, cried out in fear.

But the next moment, a sharp blade suddenly pressed against the corner of the young man's mouth from the side, "physically" stopping the young man's terrified roar.

"This is?"

The young man who discovered that it didn't seem to be a monster but a scythe weapon closed his mouth in fear in front of the blade and turned his head slightly to see what was behind him.

But then a huge force came from behind the young man, and the pain made him give up the idea of ​​turning back.

At the same time, a gentle female voice came from behind the young man: "Good afternoon, sir - can you describe what you saw in the cave just now?"

Chapter 72: Retreat and Accident

"You...who are you!?"

The young man heard the woman's voice coming from behind him and spoke in panic.

woman?

How is this possible? The power behind him is so great that even if there is a 300-pound sumo wrestler pressing down on him, the young man would absolutely believe it.

What's more, the hard feeling coming from behind is more like the limbs of an animal, such as a dog or a wolf, rather than a human limb.

This made the young man even more frightened.

The woman behind him just said with a hint of laughter: "Hehe, I'm just a maid passing by, my identity is not important."

As he spoke, the sickle at the young man's mouth slid down gently, and the sharp white blade lightly scratched his neck, leaving a tiny wound, causing blood to gradually flow out from the young man's neck.

"——What's important is what happened inside."

The woman's smiling voice sounded again.

"I, I know!" Feeling the cold blade on his neck, the young man who had finally escaped from the ghost cave and fell into the tiger's mouth shouted in fear: "It's the seal - Lord Takenami-no-Gosho sealed many monsters in it, but the seal has been broken!"

"No matter who you are, run away! Otherwise, the monster will come out soon!"

"The Royal Imperial Palace of Narukami?"

Behind me came the sound of a woman mumbling to herself, as if she was thinking about something.

But the woman did not respond to the young man's advice, but remained silent.

After the young man waited anxiously for a moment, the power behind him and the sharp blade on his neck suddenly disappeared.

"This is?"

The young man was instantly overjoyed when he was no longer oppressed. He crawled to his feet and continued to run towards the shrine without even daring to look back.

After the young man disappeared into the dense jungle, a girl wearing gray and blue armor with short hair covering one eye and a mechanical dog lying beside her looked silently at the cave from the shadows.

——It’s Rita.

The one who just captured the young man was naturally Rita's mechanical dog Carbon-based Hunter, who had been tracking Muliangta Himeko.

Rita, who had not expected to get this kind of information, was now looking at the cave and lost in thought.

Rita herself does not believe in ghosts and gods, because Rita, who works in intelligence in Destiny, knows that many so-called ghosts and gods are just legends created by people who saw the consequences of the Honkai and could not understand it.

This seems to be the case here right now.

I think the young man just now saw a Honkai beast or a dead soldier and mistook it for a monster.

But...what about the so-called seal that the young man who escaped mentioned?

Was there anyone in ancient times who could seal the Honkai beasts or the Death Warriors?

Thinking of this, Rita narrowed her eyes and looked towards the cave where faint sounds of fighting seemed to be coming from.

At this time, inside the cave, Wuliangta Jizi was gradually becoming tired.

At this moment, the ground was covered with a thick layer of flesh and blood, and the surrounding stone walls were also covered with splattered blood, making the surrounding carved murals covered with blood, making them even more hideous and terrifying.

Even the armor of Himeko Muliangta was splattered with the blood of Honkai beasts.

After all, in just a dozen minutes, countless Honkai beasts with the appearance of monsters had been killed by Himeko Murata's sword.

Just from what Jiko Muliangta could remember, there were at least hundreds of Honkai beasts.

But even so, inside the cave gate, Honkai beasts continued to pour out, as if the Honkai beasts inside were endless!

"This number... is too much!"

After wiping the few drops of blood that splashed on her face, Wuliangta Jizi couldn't help but complain.

To make matters worse, just after Wuliangta Jizi swung the blade again, she was somewhat surprised to find that the white and purple electric light on her armor had begun to flicker slightly.

This is a sign that energy supply is beginning to be insufficient.

"Isn't there enough energy?"

Wuliangta Jizi's face changed slightly, and she swung the greatsword violently. With the help of the blade light that had escaped from the blade, she temporarily repelled the Honkai beast that was attacking again, and took the opportunity to look down at the energy scale on her wrist.

At this time, due to the long-term high-power operation of the armor's Nexus system, the energy on Himeko Murata's wrist showed that the armor's collapse energy was already below 15%!

"Tsk!"

After a light click of the tongue, Wuliangta Jizi took a slight step forward, dodged a Honkai beast that stretched its neck to attack her, and swung the greatsword in her hand downwards, directly cutting off the neck of the Honkai beast that was attacking her.

Wuliangta Jizi had already anticipated the depletion of energy.

After all, in theory, the Nexus system can only be used when connected to the battleship's energy source. For example, the maximum output during the previous battle with Tomie Kawakami and the long-term high output now will consume a lot of the armor's energy.

However, this speed is a little faster than Himeko Murata had expected. It must be because under the pressure of the Honkai beast, Himeko Murata used too much power of the Nexus system.

Once the energy is exhausted and the Nexus system is shut down, the current number of Honkai beasts will be reduced. Without the increase in the number of Honkai beasts from the Nexus system, and unable to take advantage of the armor's mobility in the narrow cave, Himeko Muliangta may not be able to hold on for long.

"It's not like there are no other methods..."

Wuliangta Jizi's eyes flickered slightly.

If the Nexus system is used to overload the armor's Houkai furnace, it should cause a lot of Houkai casualties and blow up the cave in front of us.

However, as she watched the Honkai beasts pouring out in front of her, Himeko Muliangta rejected this plan.
