So, let's fight first?
Before Yundeng could raise the Spear of the Sky again, the cherry blossom petals around him were seen drifting away in the wind.
In my eyes, the rich fragrance drifts everywhere with the wind.
And the pair of rabbit ears turned into smoke and dust amid the swaying of the cherry blossoms.
But in the blink of an eye, Yaezakura disappeared from Yundeng's sight.
"Gone?"
Yundeng said softly.
This is the spiritual form of Honkai energy, and it is difficult to catch the true form.
But it also has something to do with the fact that Yundeng did not take the initiative to chase after him.
Right now, there is something more important to do, which is to check the extent of Kiana's injuries.
Yundeng removed his armor, transformed back into his original form, and walked out of Qianyu Academy.
When she returned to the transport, she found the trio had already arrived inside.
Mei and Bronya sat together and seemed to be in a bad mood.
Kiana was bandaged and lay on a wooden board with her eyes closed to rest.
"How's Kiana? Was she stabbed by a poisonous vine just now?"
Yundeng walked to Meiyi and asked softly.
"Well... she was accidentally stabbed in the leg by that Herrscher, but the wound was not deep and she pulled it out in time. There is a special antidote in the transport plane, and we have given it to Kiana." Mei nodded hesitantly, with a flash of worry on her face.
"She's asleep now, so let her sleep a little longer. Bronya and I will take care of the search for Principal Theresa."
"Bronya is fine, Sister Yundeng doesn't have to worry." Bronya agreed.
Yundeng walked up to Kiana and saw that her hair was soaked with sweat, with the delicate ends tangled together.
As if she was thinking of Theresa, Kiana, with her eyes tightly locked, murmured softly in her sleep: "Well...Aunt...I will find you..."
Her calves, smooth and elastic from frequent exercise, were now wrapped in bandages.
The light sweat mixed with the girl's body fragrance was as sweet as milk.
Yundeng stretched out his right hand, smoothed Kiana's frown, and then gently wiped the sweat from her forehead with a tissue.
After doing all this, Yun Deng said to the two people who were watching nearby: "Let her have a good sleep first."
"I'll contact the garrison troops in Changkong and let them rest there tonight. We also have some supplies. It's getting late now, so we'll deal with the Herrscher Mimic tomorrow."
Yun Deng gave the order. She had become the backbone of the three-person team, or even the captain, without knowing when.
Kiana is lively by nature, Mei has a softer personality, and Bronya speaks too little. All three lack the qualities to be a captain.
She usually doesn't show her authority, and only on the battlefield will she make the final decision to improve efficiency.
"The garrison troops in Changkong? Will they welcome us?"
"The Far East Branch has a bad reputation in other departments..."
Mei explained, pushing her sweaty hair behind her ears: "Because Principal Theresa's teaching philosophy is not consistent with the philosophy of all the branches and troops under the Sky Mandate, there have been frictions in the past. Once, the Valkyries of Saint Freya Academy and other branches worked together to stop the attack of Honkai Beast."
"Later, that branch asked the Valkyries to defend the city with their lives, and the principal ordered us to retreat and use the more valuable mechas we bought to fill the gap."
"Since then, other branches have disliked us."
"...That's definitely Theresa's style."
Yundeng pondered for a moment and felt that Theresa would do this.
Compared to the headquarters and other branches who treat the lives of the Valkyries as consumables, Theresa treats the Valkyries as her own people.
Then, she gently comforted the worried Mei, "Don't worry about it for now. At least we are all destined by God. We can't just sit back and do nothing."
The few of them made up their minds, and Yundeng asked the pilot to rush to the location of the garrison troops in Changkong.
In every city destroyed by Honkai, there is a team of Valkyries guarding the fortress to prevent the release of dead soldiers or Honkai beasts, which would bring devastating damage to ordinary cities.
Soon, everyone found a red dot on the transport plane, which was Changkong’s garrison troops.
Because the transport plane was printed with the symbol of Destiny, it was not stopped.
After the transport plane was parked, Yundeng jumped off the plane and saw a team of Valkyries walking towards him.
There were ten people in this team, led by a blue-haired girl holding a gun, who was looking at them cautiously.
"Which department are you from? What is your purpose in coming to our Changkong garrison?" shouted the blue-haired girl in the lead.
"We are from the Far East Branch. We are here for supplies. One of our Valkyries was injured by the Herrscher Mimic from Changkong City and now she needs to rest."
Yundeng explained.
"Mimetic Herr?"
The blue-haired girl's expression changed suddenly.
Chapter 35 If You Die, I Won't Collect Your Body
"Have you seen the Mimic Herrscher? Did he escape?"
She asked in disbelief, as if she didn't believe what Yundeng said.
You know, a Mimic Herrscher is not something that an ordinary Valkyrie can deal with. It requires an S-class Valkyrie to kill it.
And in the entire destiny, the entire world, as far as ordinary Valkyries know, there are only three S-level Valkyries.
Even if they managed to escape from the Herrscher, it would be enough for them to brag about for the rest of their lives.
"Based on them, they look like C-rank Valkyries, right?"
"Yeah, that leader is no higher than B-level. He's such a boaster."
"Shh~Keep your voice down. I'm from the Far East branch, the one that's different from the others."
"Ah? No wonder. Last time I heard that there was an S-class Valkyrie in the Far East branch, it made me laugh to death. I'm afraid they don't even know how many S-class Valkyries there are now."
"Don't expose them."
"......"
Yun Deng had a calm expression as he heard the discussion behind the Valkyrie team.
Maybe for them, the S-class Valkyrie is really too far away, just like a high and mighty god, so no one believes it.
Mei and Bronya behind him couldn't help but frown and look a little depressed when they heard this.
I knew the Far East branch had a bad reputation, but I didn’t expect it to be this bad.
Is it necessary to slander us just because we have different ideas?
"Sister Yundeng, why don't we go?" Bronya asked in a low voice.
Before Yundeng could respond, the blue-haired leader suddenly relaxed his attitude, as if he had made some kind of decision and said, "Since you are injured, you can rest here for a while. It won't be too late to go back tomorrow."
Mei and Bronya were surprised. They didn't expect the other party's attitude to change so quickly.
"But there is one condition. After you go back, don't tell anyone about the news of the Mimic Herrscher in Changkong City. Just say that she has been very quiet and nothing unexpected has happened. We don't want anyone to disturb us again."
"......Um?"
Yun Deng was puzzled. Theresa had clearly come to support them, and there was a chance to eliminate the Herrscher in one go, so why didn't they bother her?
"You guys don't understand, so let me tell you," the blue-haired leader said, "As Valkyries, we naturally have to fight against Honkai, but as consumables, we don't want to do that, so it's a good thing that our team can rest quietly in Changkong City now."
"That Mimic Herrscher will only kill those who break into Qianyu Academy. She is very quiet and won't hurt us. If someone kills her, Changkong City will be safe, and we will be transferred and rush to the front line at the cost of our lives."
"Although we think that the Destiny Headquarters would not do anything without benefits, specifically sending an S-class Valkyrie here to kill a mimic Herrscher."
"Is it?"
Yundeng understood, but they probably didn't know that Theresa had actually detected a strong Honkai energy reaction and had gone to Changkong City on her own.
Now, she should be under Yaezakura's protection, so there is no need to rush.
It is the case that these Valkyries, under the concept of destiny, have completely lost their original intention as Valkyries.
Looking at the tired Mei and Bronya, Yun Deng didn't have the leisure to talk to them again.
Several people went to the garrison of Changkong, where the fully automatic mechanized internal facilities were fully equipped.
There are patrolling robots and guarding mechas.
The safety factor is extremely high and there is no need to worry about the intrusion of Honkai beasts.
The blue-haired leader led everyone in and gave them two rooms. After placing the injured Kiana in one room, Bronya and Mei washed up and went to bed.
Yundeng slept in the small bedroom next to Kiana, two of them in one room.
......
night.
Yundeng tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
It’s not because I’m upset, it’s mainly because I’m used to sleeping in an unfamiliar bed.
The rustling sound of leaves swaying came from the window beside the bed. The faint moonlight accompanied by the cold wind quietly penetrated the window screen, covering the bedroom with a layer of silver veil, pure and elegant.
Yundeng opened his eyes, but he was not sleepy at all. He simply put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom.
There was a Valkyrie patrolling inside the base, and she was a little confused when she saw Yundeng.
"I can't sleep, so I went out for a walk." Yun Deng rubbed his swollen temples.
"...The sky at night is not that safe. If you die, we will not help you collect your body." The Valkyrie said coldly.
"It's okay. I don't need you to help me collect it. By the way, do you have any cigarettes?"
"Yes, take it."
The Valkyrie spoke in a cold tone, but was surprisingly generous and gave Yundeng a pack of Houla brand ladies' cigarettes.
A red character named Houmu appeared on the cigarette box, with a ferocious expression, a scar on his face, and ears on his head that looked like they were burning with flames.
Looking at the pack of cigarettes, Yun Deng smiled: "Thanks."
When she was a red-haired woman, she would often suffer from insomnia in the middle of the night due to the pain caused by the collapse.
Cigarettes and alcohol became her best companions in the long night.
Later, the Hyperion was rated as a civilized model ship for three consecutive years, and she gradually stopped doing that.
Now it seems familiar yet strange.
Walking out of the base, Yundeng sat on a chair under the cover of night, tore open the box of Houla cigarettes, and was about to take out a cigarette.
Suddenly, she heard light footsteps beside her.
Turning her head, she saw Kiana, wearing a jet black jacket and white jeans, slowly walking up to her.
The black coat was several sizes larger than her body. The huge hat on her head ruffled her originally smooth hair, with a few strands of hair sticking up at the corners. Her delicate facial features were childish and cute, and her bright eyes were clean yet dazed.
"Why did you come out?" Yun Deng asked softly.
Kiana blinked in response to Yundeng's words, her innocent blue eyes looking a little silly and cute.
The smell of the cloud lamp lingered in the air, like the fragrance of milk and sugar, which accelerated Kiana's saliva secretion.
"I couldn't sleep. I couldn't find you."
Three seconds later, Kiana shook her head and sat down next to Yundeng hesitantly.
Then, something struck her: "What are you doing here?"
She saw Yundeng's eyes drooping, her delicate cheeks covered with tiny drops of water at night. She picked up a lady's cigarette, lit the butt with an orange flame, and took a puff of the smoke from her lips that were as pink as rose petals.
After the burnt boredom had brewed in his throat for a while, Yun Deng blew it out gently and tiredly.
No toffee flavor now.
"You don't like the smell of smoke, right?" Yun Deng guessed softly.
However, Kiana in front of him didn't seem disgusted at all. Instead, the corners of her lips relaxed, and her eyes were hesitant and concerned. Her movements were like a little kitten that had discovered a butterfly.
This child, is he confused in his sleep?
