With the number at hand, even an overloaded Honkai Impactor on the Nexus system would not be able to destroy them all.
Moreover, the Honkai beasts do not need to breathe or eat. Although I don’t know how they were trapped here before, I think that a collapsed cave alone will not be of any use. Sooner or later, they will be able to dig through the cave and escape.
This is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.
Moreover, without Himeko Murata, the casualties caused by these Honkai beasts will be even greater - it may even cause a super-large Honkai like the Tokyo Honkai.
"...In this case, we can only retreat temporarily."
Taking a look at her Honkai energy which had dropped to less than 12%, Wuliangta Jiko, who was breathing slightly, tightly grasped the greatsword with both hands and chopped at the Honkai beasts in front of her with all her strength.
In an instant, as the Honkai energy dropped by 1% again, a dazzling blade of light emerged from Wuliangta Jizi's greatsword and rushed straight towards the Honkai beasts, cutting off several of them in succession and curbing their attacks.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wuliangta Jizi also quickly retreated and rushed towards the exit of the cave.
But Himeko Murata's retreat was not for escape—but for a better battle!
What Wuliangta Jizi wants to do is to regroup outside, and then use the mobility advantage of the armor to fight and destroy these Honkai beasts as much as possible!
The current retreat is just for a better attack!
So, when Rita was outside hesitating whether she needed to enter the cave now, she saw Muliangta Jiko, covered in blood, suddenly rushed out of the cave, and then stood outside the empty cave, holding a big sword pointing at the cave, making a defensive and offensive posture.
"Is Muliangta Himeko injured?"
Looking at Himeko Muryota covered in blood, Rita was a little surprised.
Although Himeko Murata is not an S-level Valkyrie of Tianming, but an A-level Valkyrie, which is second only to S. However, that is also a high-level combat force of Tianming. Can't even Himeko Murata deal with the Honkai beasts and the dead soldiers in the cave?
"This is really..."
Rita frowned slightly: "If I had known earlier, even if I took a little more risk of getting lost in the quantum sea, I should have equipped myself with S-level Valkyrie armor instead of the current hunting suit."
Just when Rita was regretting not having made adequate preparations before, the enemies that Himeko Murayama was facing - the Honkai beasts - finally rushed out.
What was beyond the expectations of Himeko Muliangta was that the Honkai beasts that had just rushed out of the cave, contrary to their previous attitude of fighting to the death with Himeko Muliangta, ignored Himeko Muliangta who was standing in front of the cave, and directly bypassed her and rushed straight towards the shrine!
"Varied……"
Wuliangta Jizi's face changed drastically. She swung out her greatsword and blocked the Honkai Beast in front of her. The greatsword in her hand pierced through the body of a bull-headed spider-bodied bull. She stood on it and shouted loudly: "Damn Honkai Beast, come here! I'm right here!"
However, among the Honkai beasts at this time, only a few around shifted their attention to Himeko Murata, while the rest of the Honkai beasts continued to rush towards the nearby Narukami Taisha Shrine.
"hateful!"
Having not expected this, Wuliangta Jizi, who had miscalculated, gritted her teeth and cursed.
Thinking of the large number of tourists she had just seen at the shrine, Himeko Muromata had no choice but to turn around and rush towards the shrine.
Although we don't know why the shrine attracted these Honkai beasts, now that things have come to this point, we can only rush to the shrine to let ordinary people evacuate as soon as possible, and stop these Honkai beasts from outside the shrine to buy time.
Unlike Himeko Murata, Rita did not rush to the shrine at this time. Instead, she watched the departing Honkai beasts in the shadows and counted them quietly.
“…621, 622.”
After seeing that no more Honkai beasts were emerging from the cave, Rita stopped counting and whispered, "Hmm, 622?"
"There are 622 Honkai beasts in this cave? Considering the time that Wuliangta Jizi spent fighting, there are nearly a thousand Honkai beasts in this cave?"
After saying this, Rita herself showed a hint of surprise on her face.
Now she understood why Himeko Muryota became like that.
But this is so unusual.
Collapse is a disaster targeting humans. Unless there are tens of thousands of people in this small cave, it should be impossible for so many Collapse beasts to be born in theory.
Thinking of this, and recalling what the young man had just said about the "seal", Rita walked out of the shadows thoughtfully and headed towards the cave.
“Now we really have to explore.”
Rita walked into the cave under the illumination of the mechanical dog carbon-based hunter, holding a sickle and smiling.
Chapter 73: The Witch with Fox Ears
When Rita took the opportunity to explore the cave after both Himeko Murata and Honkai Beast had left the cave, Himeko Murata, who had used the mobility advantage of the Valkyrie Armor to leave Honkai Beast far behind, was jumping back and forth on the trees and quickly rushing to the shrine.
But unexpectedly, at this time, Wuliangta Himeko saw a familiar figure on the ground, rushing towards the shrine in a panic.
"Tsk!"
After seeing that the man's escape trajectory overlapped with the Honkai beast's trajectory, Wuliangta Jizi let out a light click of her tongue, increased her pace a bit, then leaned over and grabbed the figure's collar, lifted him up directly, and rushed towards the shrine together.
"Hey! What on earth was going on in the cave just now?"
It was the young man who had escaped and was interrogated by Rita before.
"Ah...ah! Help, I'm not tasty, please let me go!"
At first, the captured young man was shouting in panic, and then after Wuliangta Jizi spoke, the young man was surprised to find that the one who lifted him up was the red-haired woman who had saved him in the cave just now, and not some monster.
"You...are you still alive?"
The young man said in surprise and panic.
"Of course!" Wuliangta Jizi curled her lips, completely ignoring the predicament that her Honkai energy was only about 10% left, and answered casually: "Those Honkai beasts are far from enough to kill me. If you want to kill me, at least a Herrscher is needed... Hmm? Why do I feel like I said this before?"
"What?" The young man who was kicked by Wuliangta Jizi showed a confused look: "What Herrscher, Honkai Beast?"
Wuliangta Jizi didn't explain her thoughts and just said casually, "It's the monsters in the cave."
"Rather than that, do you have time to tell me what happened in the cave?"
The young man looked at the red-haired woman who could easily lift an adult, jump back and forth between the towering trees, and wear armor while holding a big sword. He thought of the scene in the cave where the other party easily killed a monster and saved him. Embarrassed and fearful, he hurriedly explained in detail and told Wuliangta Jizi everything he had experienced.
"Seal? Mist Cutting? And Thunder General?"
After listening to the young man's story, Wuliangta Jizi frowned.
Wuliangta Jizi, who also has a lot of knowledge about Honkai energy, naturally understands the absurdity of having so many Honkai beasts in one cave. It's just that she was fighting just now and had no time to think.
Now that she had some free time and knew a lot of information, Wuliangta Jizi finally began to think about what this cave was all about.
As far as the information that Himeko Murasaki has obtained so far is concerned, although she doesn't know why the ancient General Thunder had such technology and could capture and seal so many Honkai beasts, Himeko Murasaki still believes that the young man's sealing conjecture should be true.
Obviously, the being called General Raiden is most likely a powerful person infected with Honkai energy, or a pseudo-heresian like Jotaro Kujo who mistakes himself for a human.
Moreover, General Raiden seems to care about ordinary people as well. Not only did he use his own power to unify District 11 and establish a dynasty, he also stepped forward to block the Honkai Beast when a powerful Honkai Beast appeared in the water and attacked and the people in the world encountered Honkai.
Although we don't know what the process was, but judging from the result, General Raiden sealed many Honkai beasts in the basement of the shrine and disappeared himself.
This should be the origin of those Honkai beasts.
However, the only pity is that although the current information has allowed Himeko Muliangta to understand the origin of the Honkai beast, it is of no use to the current situation.
"Tsk, no matter what happened to that Thunder General, these Honkai beasts are real now."
"Right now, we must prioritize evacuating the crowd and dealing with the Honkai beasts. As for the matter of General Thunder, we can consider it later."
Wuliangta Jizi said to herself: "After all... we can't rely on General Raiden to resurrect and deal with these Honkai beasts."
After saying that, looking at the Narukami Taisha Shrine which was already vaguely visible not far away, Himeko Murata quickened her pace again - the Honkai Beast was not far behind her, and she had limited time. Next, she had to prepare to fight the Honkai Beast and evacuate ordinary civilians. Every second was important!
At this time, in the cave.
"Ow!"
One of them had only the upper half of its body left, and the blades on both of its hands were cut off, but it had luckily survived the sword of Himeko Muryota and was now struggling to climb on the ground - even in this state, it still instinctively wanted to leave the cave and go outside.
But at this moment, the sound of steel and sticky flesh colliding was heard in the cave.
——Crack.
With the sound of footsteps, Rita trampled on the blood of the Honkai beast, walked past the Kamaitachi, and focused her eyes on the stone wall of the cave in front of her.
"The Narukami-no-Osho and the great snake from the deep sea perished together, and then the body of the great snake was sealed in the basement of the shrine?"
Looking at the records on the stone wall, Rita smiled with interest.
At this moment, the sickle-weasel, seeing the living creatures around it, instinctively opened its mouth and bit Rita's steel boots.
——Crack!
The hard steel limbs pierced through the kamaitachi's head, ending its life.
It's Rita's mechanical dog, Carbon Hunter.
But at this time, Rita didn't care about this little thing, but narrowed her eyes at the long knife stuck in the floor in the pool of blood.
"What is this weapon?"
Rita walked into the pool of blood of the Honkai beast without a care in the world and looked at the purple sword in front of her.
Even though it was among the corpses of the Honkai beasts, the long sword was not stained with blood at all, as if something had blocked all the blood.
Thinking of this, Rita raised the corner of her mouth and stretched out her hand to grasp the hilt of the knife.
Although it looks a bit old, the handle of the long sword feels very comfortable and surprisingly fits Rita's slender fingers.
But Rita frowned slightly at this.
Because she found that she couldn't pull out the long sword.
This is not normal. Rita is not a weak girl who can't even open a beverage bottle... Not to mention that the power of the Valkyrie is stronger than that of ordinary people, not to mention that she is wearing the Valkyrie armor at this time. Let alone a long sword, even a tram can be easily stopped by Rita.
"Is this weapon part of the so-called seal?"
Rita, who had also seen the young man stealing the weapon, said to herself, "So, this weapon can be unsealed? So this weapon can't be pulled out?"
Based on this conjecture, although Rita was a little concerned about the long sword, she considered that it would be bad if she forcibly pulled out the long sword and caused an accident. Therefore, Rita had to regretfully give up her research on the purple long sword and instead looked at the open door in front of her.
The blood of the Honkai Beast stopped just in front of the gate - obviously, just now, Wuliangta Jizi only blocked the Honkai Beast in front of the gate and did not have time to go in.
Seeing this scene, Rita narrowed her eyes slightly and gently stroked the glowing mechanical dog carbon-based hunter that was acting as a light beside her leg.
The next moment, the carbon-based hunter, which had accumulated a little strength, jumped directly out and entered the room, and its vision was synchronized with Rita's eyes.
——An empty and dark room appeared in front of Rita.
But at least there seemed to be no enemies or traps.
"Have all the Honkai beasts followed Himeko Muliangta?"
Thinking of the 622 Honkai beasts following Himeko Muliangta, Rita walked silently towards the door.
Click, click...
Accompanied by the crisp footsteps of Rita's combat boots, after confirming that it was safe, Rita had walked into the door, and her fingers gently touched the walls and door of the room.
Just ordinary stone bricks.
Although these stone bricks look very thick, no matter how thick these ordinary stone bricks are, they should not be able to stop the Honkai beasts. Theoretically speaking, the nearly a thousand Honkai beasts should have dug through the rocks and escaped long ago instead of staying inside.
"Sure enough, there was something else that was working before, so it sealed the Honkai beast?"
Rita felt a little regretful.
No matter what was working to block these Honkai beasts before, it now seems that with the long sword breaking the seal, the effect of that thing blocking the Honkai beasts has disappeared.
At least at this moment, the walls here have turned into ordinary stones.
You can try to pull out the long sword later to see if the seal will be restored.
Thinking of this, Rita, who was not very hopeful, shook her head and continued to go deeper inside with the mechanical dog, hoping that there would be some other gains inside.
But unfortunately, as Rita went deeper, she saw many rooms inside and there were many porcelains and other things.
But at this time, perhaps because of the passage of time, or perhaps because of the fact that those Honkai beasts had been inside, those things have now turned into some broken garbage, and there is nothing worth noting anymore.
And the documents, new murals, and other things that Rita hoped to see were nowhere to be found.
"what a pity."
Rita sighed regretfully.
At this moment, Rita almost thought that she would return disappointed - until Rita walked into the deepest part of this underground space.
千?寻"小"说'!中;'转'!.裙;2?.5,!'5;.5"9.5."?"3,;'.0!0在这片地下空间的最深处,丽塔看到了一个巨大的石棺。
What’s even more amazing is that, unlike the messy previous room, this room is very tidy and things like porcelain are not damaged at all.
It was as if those Honkai beasts had never been to this room.
"Oh? It looks like all will be well, doesn't it?"
Looking at the sarcophagus, Rita had a premonition that she would gain a lot, so Rita walked into the room with a smile.
