Fight against the Lord God and spread the power of collapse from Tokyo

"You must be kidding... This level of Honkai Beast is totally not on the same level as the other Honkai Beasts in the concession!"

It's just a Honkai beast. It's not like Ryuko Chan has never seen one before... There are quite a few Honkai beasts in the center of the concession, including the usual pet cats and dogs, animals in the zoo, and all kinds of Honkai beasts. Ryuko Chan has also dealt with several Honkai beasts that were mutated from pet dogs on his own.

But this was the first time she had seen one so huge that even when crawling it was taller than a person!

"Damn it, if there weren't any living people around, I wouldn't fight this monster!"

Ryuko Matoi said in a low voice, holding the handle of the scissors tightly with both hands.

At this time, the Honkai beast that had dodged the attacks of the two people had turned its head and glanced at Chan Ryuko who was following behind. After pacing slowly for a few seconds, it raised its huge right palm with a sharp blade without hesitation and swung it towards Chan Ryuko who had disturbed her hunting.

——Ping!

Accompanied by the sound of a sharp blade, the vigilant Chan Ryuzi struggled to block the sharp claws of the Honkai beast.

"Chance!"

Gui Longyuan Gaoyue on the side naturally would not just watch.

At this moment, she clenched the broken blade in her hand without hesitation, ignoring the severe pain coming from her body. With blood flowing from the corners of her mouth, she dragged her body forward, and stabbed the sharp blade in her hand towards the gap in the shell on the neck of the monster in front of her that was exposed when the monster turned its head!

"Well!"

But as soon as he moved, Guilongyuan Gaoyue couldn't help but groan.

Because at this moment, the severe pain in the body caused by the sudden movement suddenly became several times stronger, which made Guilongyuan Gaoyue's movements become stiff.

At this time, the Honkai Beast also noticed Guilongyuan Gaoyue's intention to launch a sneak attack. It exerted force with its giant palm and directly waved away Chanliuzi, who was having a hard time blocking it. It stopped playing and turned around to bite Guilongyuan Gaoyue.

In an instant, a bloody mouth stained with the blood of his companions and with some meat hanging on the sharp teeth appeared in front of Guilongyuan Gaoyue.

But at this time, Guilongyuan Gaoyue was unable to dodge because of his stiff body - he didn't even have time to raise the broken blade in his hand.

Faced with this critical moment, Guilongyuan Gaoyue's eyes began to become confused. A feeling of fullness as if it was filled suddenly appeared in her body and began to gather towards the broken sword in her hand!

"this……?"

Without time to think carefully, as his body became more flexible, Guilongyuan Gaoyue subconsciously used the broken sword in his hand to block in front of him.

A bright silver light flashed in an instant, blocking Guilongyuan Gaoyue.

The Honkai beast in front of him suddenly shrank back in the silver light, retracted its attacking claws, and jumped back several steps away from Guilongyuan Gaoyue.

"Hey, what's that in your hand? Did it scare this monster?"

Ryuko Matoi, who was swept away, took the opportunity to come to the side of Guilongyuan Gaoyue. While breathing slightly and whispering, he looked at the Honkai beast in front of him vigilantly.

And Kiryuin Gaoyue looked at the beautiful platinum-colored samurai sword in his hand that looked like a work of art. He felt the power surging from the sword and the pain in his body that was relieved a lot, and then he fell silent.

"What does this feel like?"

The confused Guilongyuan Gaoyue silently forced himself to stand up and tightly grasped the weapon in his hand.

No matter what this is...at least I have regained the ability to fight!

But at this moment, the Honkai beast growled a few times, and in the astonished gaze of the two people, it turned around and jumped towards the wall beside it, grabbed the wall and climbed up the tall building, and disappeared from their sight in a few seconds.

As the sense of crisis that had been lingering over him since he saw the Honkai beast disappeared, Guilongyuan Gaoyue realized one thing - the Honkai beast had really left.

Thinking of this, Guilongyuan Gaoyue's strong body relaxed instantly, and he slowly loosened the handle of the weapon in his hand.

"Phew... I'm saved. How about you? Are you okay?"

Ryuko Matoi, who saved Kiryuin Gaoyue, also looked at her with a slight sigh of relief.

Click!

In response to Chan Ryuko's words, there was the crisp sound of a weapon falling to the ground.

Under Ryuko Matoi's astonished gaze, the weapon in Guilongyuan Gaoyue's hand had already fallen to the ground, and the collapse energy on the surface scattered and transformed into the broken sword again.

And Guilongyuan Gaoyue himself also fell backwards with his head raised.

The last thing that appeared in Guilongyuan Gaoyue's consciousness was the slender but strong arm of the girl behind him and her gradually distorted voice.

"Hey! What's wrong? Are you okay..."

Chapter 31 Banquet

In Yokohama, a grand banquet is being held in Ningguang's villa.

In a corner of the banquet, Mo Ren was sensing Kiryuin Gaoyue, who had been rescued by Matoi Ryuko, through the Honkai energy, and was slightly distracted and thinking.

“…Now Kiryuin Satsuki has completed her awakening. Although she is not as good as Kujo Jotaro, she is already the second highest Houkai energy level in Tokyo. The next step is to let her naturally come into contact with Kujo Jotaro and attract the attention of the Lord God.”

"As for Jotaro Kujo... he is cleaning up his assassins in the center of the concession. We can wait until Tanya arrives at the Instinct Academy tomorrow, and then use Tanya to lure Kiryuin Gaoyue to the concession to make contact..."

"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

At this moment, a calm female voice from the side interrupted Mo Ren's thoughts.

Mo Ren came back to his senses and looked in the direction where the female voice came from, just in time to see Ningguang wearing a dark blue backless dress that combined the Xinming style with the Empire style.

Looking at Ningguang who was walking over and greeting the guests, Mo Ren smiled and said, "Nothing, I'm just not used to this kind of occasion."

"Sister, is it okay for you to be here? This banquet is held for you. Most of the officials from District 11 and your councillors are here. Is it okay for you to stay here with me?"

Ningguang, who also maintained a polite smile on her face, shook her head indifferently at first, then corrected him and said, "It's not for me. It's to discuss how to maintain the imperial order in District 11 in the absence of the Vice Governor who is seriously injured."

"As for entertaining them... the polite hospitality is over. What these people need now is some time to communicate with each other and find out the truth."

Hearing this, Mo Ren couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Even in this situation, you are unwilling to make it clear in front of your brother?"

"Should I say it's cautious or sinister?"

At a time when the deputy governor is seriously injured, the governor is away, and the opposition is temporarily ostracized by the imperial people of District 11 because of the attack on the deputy governor, holding a dinner to discuss policy at Ningguang's home - what is the difference between this and directly handing power to Ningguang, who is from the imperial faction.

The so-called mutual communication and sounding out the bottom line meant nothing more than waiting for them and the Imperial parliamentarians under Ningguang to reach an agreement with each other.

“…But this is also good news.”

Mo Ren picked up the wine from the tray of a passing attendant, looking thoughtful. "In this way, before the imperial people arrive, Ningguang will have the final say in Area 11. Perhaps we can speed up the plan."

At this time, Ningguang turned her head to look at Mo Ren, but reached out and took the wine glass that Mo Ren had just put to his lips.

"Ok?"

Mo Ren looked at Ning Guang in surprise.

"You are not yet an adult." Ningguang picked up the drink beside her and handed it to Mo Ren: "Drink this."

…I’m over a hundred years old.

Mo Ren took the drink from Ning Guang's hand with a smile, and then, while drinking the drink, he covered his lips with the cup and said, "Sister, everything has been arranged at the Instinct Academy. The first batch of supplies will be delivered to the Academy tomorrow."

As if she didn't expect Mo Ren to suddenly mention the Instinct Academy, Ningguang turned to look at Mo Ren, but didn't say anything.

You suddenly mentioned this matter at the banquet at this time. It can't be just to report your work... Is there something you are unsure about?

Ningguang waited thoughtfully for Mo Ren to continue.

As expected, just as Ningguang expected, Mo Ren only paused for a moment before continuing, "Once there are no problems with the Instinct Academy, I hope you can allow me to set up an experimental base in Yokohama to study Honkai energy."

"Researching Honkai energy?" Ningguang's expression became serious. "Do you know what you are talking about? You also witnessed what happened in Tokyo. If something like that happens in Yokohama, what if Honkai happens?"

"Of course I know." Mo Ren put down the drink in his hand, looked at Ningguang and said seriously: "It is precisely to prevent this kind of thing from happening again that we need to study it even more!"

"Let's not talk about anything else. Sister, aren't you investigating Tianming? Have you found anything?"

Ningguang raised her glass silently and took a sip of the red wine.

According to common sense, a large organization cannot be completely self-sufficient. The larger the organization, the more resources it needs, and naturally the more traces it leaves in the outside world.

For example, the Xinming Seven Stars, where Ningguang was, could not avoid revealing traces even with the support of Xinming behind them, which was discovered by Shumu Xuanwu. Ningguang was forced to abandon the useful Shumu Xuanwu to clear the traces and stand on the stage in advance.

Not to mention that they are a salvation organization that is fighting against supernatural powers and has advanced technology. In theory, they should be very conspicuous.

...But in fact, up to now, Ningguang has not found any clues about Tianming except Tokyo. If it were not for the proof of the existence of the broadcast from Tokyo, Ningguang would have suspected that Tianming was just a scam.

Seeing Ningguang's expected reaction, Mo Ren said affirmatively: "Sister, you haven't found any clues about destiny."

"Aren't you worried about the authenticity of the information from the Heavenly Destiny?"

"...At least from now on it seems that they are real and they are not lying." Ningguang said in a deep voice.

“Now?” Mo Ren repeated Ning Guang’s words: “…Does it look like this now?”

"Even if what Destiny told us is true information, what about what Destiny didn't tell us, sister?"

"Sister, are you just trusting all the information about Honkai to fate? You know, they haven't had any news since the first broadcast. How many things haven't they said?"

Hearing this, Ningguang, who was shaking the wine glass in her hand, became hesitant.

As a businessman and spy, Ningguang knew best the importance of intelligence. She knew very well that sometimes she didn't need to lie in order to do something - part of the truth was enough to lead to the desired result.

Knowing that Ningguang was already hesitating, Mo Ren continued to persuade her, "Even if they didn't lie or omit anything in the information, sister, are you really not interested in Honkai?"

"You know, the Houkai that caused the fall of Tokyo is in the hands of Destiny, but it can ignore the distance and directly convey information to the designated person's mind - you should know what this means, sister."

...Ningguang certainly knew what this meant.

Undetectable powerful communication - just with this technology, Ningguang can think of many expansions in military, political and other aspects!

What's more, there must be other technologies that Tianming has.

And according to what Ningguang knew, in the broadcast at that time, it was mentioned that Honkai energy was the energy source of the broadcast.

The giant humanoid machine that Xinming is currently researching is also stagnant due to energy issues. If Honkai energy can be used as energy to drive the humanoid machine...

Thinking of this, Ningguang took a deep breath of the hot air at the banquet.

"From this point of view, it is indeed necessary to establish a research institute to study Honkai energy...but..."

Looking at Mo Ren, Ningguang hesitated.

After all, Honkai energy is a dangerous thing, and Ningguang doesn't want her only brother to be in danger again.

Knowing that Ningguang was moved, Mo Ren smiled at her.

"Are you worried about me, sister? Don't forget, I also lived in Tokyo for a period of time, and I have resistance to Houkai energy. I am also the one who leads the communication of the Instinct Academy... I am the most suitable candidate."

Ningguang sighed softly and nodded.

Indeed, whether from a public or private perspective, from Ningguang's perspective, Mo Ren, as her younger brother, is indeed the most suitable candidate.

"I understand. I will arrange a group of people for you. But please note that the experiment will be conducted in the name of District 11, and you will not appear on the list."

Ningguang paused for a moment, then continued, "Also be careful and protect yourself."

In the name of District 11...is it for the critical defense of the Empire?

Mo Ren nodded in understanding, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Don't worry, sister."

"I will control Honkai energy——and everything."

Chapter 32 Return

"Well!"

With a low groan, Guilongyuan Gaoyue woke up from his sleep. Regardless of his drowsy consciousness and aching body, he subconsciously reached for the weapon at his waist.

She held it empty - there was nothing there.

"……here it is?"

With a sudden start, Guilongyuan Gaoyue, who had regained some consciousness, propped himself up and looked around.

She was now in a small and empty room. Apart from the empty shelves, there was only a small rechargeable light bulb placed on the floor in the middle of the room, providing a little dim light to this windowless room.

Crunch - creak -

As the piercing sound echoed in the room, a girl with a streak of red hair in her black hair came in with some bagged food. She looked at Guilongyuan Gaoyue who had stood up and said in surprise: "Oh, you're awake?"

It was exactly the same person as before.

"Who are you?" Guilongyuan Gaoyue looked at her warily.

“Hey, hey, hey, even though I wasn’t the one who drove away the Honkai Beast in the end, I still saved your life, right?” Looking at the vigilant look on Kiryuin Gaoyue’s face, Matoi Ryuko who walked in scratched his head: “You don’t have to be so vigilant, do you?”

"Saved me?"

Guilongyuan Gaoyue was stunned, and the memories before he fell into a coma gradually came back to him.
