But there is no way around it. The Fifth Branch itself is just disguised as a pharmaceutical company, and the weapons that a pharmaceutical company can install are not that many.

All that remained in the fifth branch were researchers who were unable to participate in the battle.

"Everyone is armed and prepared for the worst."

The one-armed man looked like a real warrior with his stern expression as he held the gun.

Others also took out their guns, ready to fight to the death with Honkai.

There was no fear on anyone's face; they had already prepared themselves mentally.

Spasi asked Ying who was standing on the top floor, "Ying, is this possible?"

"Do your own job." The blade roared violently in the air. She looked into the distance at the huge monster that was crossing half of the city in the darkness with great momentum. There was something in her eyes, but soon after some small charging-level Honkai beasts arrived, she put it away and instead jumped and slashed the attacking Honkai beast in half.

"Three tank-class Honkai beasts are approaching!"

Sakura looked sternly at the three tank-class Honkai beasts running towards them from different directions under the building. The defense of the Fifth Branch was very solid, but it did not mean that the building could withstand the attack of three Honkai beasts. Even if those defensive devices could block the heavy blows of the tank-class Honkai beasts without any damage, the building would still collapse.

Thus, in the moonless night sky, falling cherry blossoms floated down, and two long swords drew two long cold streaks of light, which pierced into the building in mid-air to act as a buffer.

After quickly landing at the required location, Sakura's figure shot out like a cannonball. With a flash of a knife in mid-air, a Honkai beast fell to the ground.

Without a moment's respite, she turned around and faced the second Honkai beast.

……

On the other side of the city, there was also a battle.

"boom!"

Perhaps this should not be called a battle, because from beginning to end, neither side was able to launch an effective counterattack.

Lin grabbed the porcupine's tail, where the quills were fewer and shorter. He was pulled into the air by its huge force and crashed into different buildings in the city at a speed faster than that of a car. Gravel and wind pressure hit his increasingly gloomy face. The severe tinnitus vibrated his eardrums, and the discomfort in his body deepened.

The sensitivity of the body nerves of giant creatures is much lower than that of smaller creatures. Even the Honkai creatures follow this theorem. The farther away from the core, the longer the reflex nerves. So the porcupine can sense that Lin is on his body at this moment, but he doesn't know where he is. He can only drive Lin away by violently attacking various parts of his body.

Lin only relied on his extraordinary physical fitness to hold on. Without any armor to protect him, his body was already a bloody mess. If he had not been right behind the porcupine, which had blocked a large amount of debris for him, he would probably have been lying dead in the ruins.

The hands that were grasping the tail fur had become like charcoal, carbon black and cracked. The energy of the porcupine's power of withering, which was close to the Sixth Lawrence's, acted on its entire body. This was tantamount to a deadly poison for any creature that came into contact with it. If Lin continued, he would most likely lose both his hands.

Even if he loses, he still has to make trade-offs and considerations, so Lin doesn't intend to waste his hands in vain.

He is waiting for an opportunity.

At present, the only weapons he can use are a pistol and a dagger. Before this sudden situation happened, no one thought that he would be the last soldier, so Lin, who was just going to explore, did not carry any equipment with him.

With these two things, it is nothing short of a pipe dream to kill an emperor-level Honkai beast.

Even on the body of the porcupine, Lin did not hold its tail meaninglessly. He was observing the actions of this emperor-level Honkai beast. If his estimation was correct, then the IQ of this emperor-level Honkai beast might be the highest ever.

The Judgment-level Honkai beast Shesha that appeared in the third Honkai Impact is not necessarily more intelligent than this porcupine.

It has some obvious human-like emotions, such as the aftertaste and show of force when destroying the amusement park, the frustration when it found that its attack was dodged and attacked in the most convenient way, and now...

Lin calculated the time and it was about time.

The outline of the amusement park appeared again in the corner of his eye.

As expected, the porcupine was planning to kill the Sixth Herrscher right in front of him.

The connection between the Sixth Herrscher and the Honkai creatures is undoubtedly the closest among all the Herrschers. The appearance of this porcupine happened when the Sixth Herrscher was too busy to protect the dead soldiers and attack Lin and Ying at the same time. In other words, its purpose was to help the Sixth Herrscher get rid of these two murderers who ruined her good mood.

And returning here means that the porcupine has found the position of Lin in his body.

As mentioned before, this porcupine is quite intelligent. Its rampage and destruction in the city is not a sign of its helplessness towards Lin. It is probably that it has been searching for the remaining people in the city during this period of time and pretending to be helpless against Lin.

It tried almost every position of its body, but did not make any movement on its tail.

This is just a little trick it uses to deceive people. After trying all the locations, the only place left is where the flea it is looking for exists.

And when the Sixth Herrscher standing on the mountainside came into view again, Lin simply let go of his hand and fell off the body of the Emperor-level Honkai Beast.

The next second after he let go, the emperor-level Honkai beast swept its tail violently and hit the hillside with great force. The earth-shaking force caused the entire mountain to collapse.

But Lin was no longer there. He found the place he was looking for - the haunted house where the equipment of the sacrificed combat team of the Fifth Branch was stored.

He didn't have time to get these weapons before because he was ambushing the Emperor-level Honkai Beast. But after the porcupine destroyed the amusement park, the roof of the haunted house was also blown off, so he could jump directly in and pick up the weapons.

The porcupine turned around proudly and prepared to admire Lin who had turned into meat paste, but what greeted it was a grenade flying towards it from below.

"Oh!"

Lin raised his gun and aimed it at the porcupine's eyelids that were closed due to the explosion. At this moment, the grinning face of the Sixth Herrscher flashed from behind him, and a huge claw pierced into his back and out of his chest.

"bass!"

Lin vomited a mouthful of blood, looked weakly at the sharp claws on his chest, then turned his head and looked at the face of the person behind him.

That hideous smile disappeared without a trace, but he was sure that at that moment, a hideous smile very similar to the one on the Fourth Herrscher's face appeared on her face.

The bright moon behind the dark clouds was sprinkled with smelly blood.

Chapter 89 Are you satisfied with this world?

She was relieved after successfully piercing the assassin, but just as she was about to pull her hand out, a lifeless hand grabbed the phase transfer device on her wrist!

She looked up in horror and found that the assassin was "looking" at her with an incredibly calm expression.

Yes, it was obvious that the dead soldiers were all low-level Honkai creatures that only knew how to destroy and kill, and even if they had a little intelligence, they were only at the level of wild beasts. But what she saw from the clear and turbid eyes of this dead soldier was a calm thinking style that was extremely rare in humans.

This look reminded her of someone.

No, he had expected her to launch a sneak attack from the very beginning!

……

Lin had already guessed that the Sixth Herrscher would strike at the moment when his vigilance was lowered. He knew her fighting style very well, which was completely in line with his own. Therefore, it was rare for the Sixth Herrscher to use her power as extravagantly as the previous Herrschers did.

As long as she "thinks" she is a human, she will fight in a human way.

For this reason, Lin had to be truly defenseless. If he had even the slightest bit of caution, the Sixth Herrscher would likely be able to see that this was a trap.

So, this was a gamble, the bet was whether she would kill him with one blow.

All the Honkai creatures have a heart-like core in their bodies. Apart from the head that controls the entire body, their real weakness lies in this core. So Lin thought that she would not attack the head, but the core position, which is the center of the chest of the dead man. This position is easier to hit than the head.

Fortunately, his bet was right.

He pulled off the phase shift device, and the moment the phase shift device was taken away, the black mist in the body of the Sixth Herrscher instantly burst out and rushed towards Lin in front of him. (Monthly fee group 694936135)

The already charred left hand completely turned into ashes in just half a second after it came into contact with the black mist. Lin decisively pulled out the dagger to cut off the part that was still necrotic and eroding upwards, and then immediately activated the phase transfer device.

Under the Sixth Herrscher's incredulous gaze, Lin disappeared.

……

Is it possible to get out of this space?

In a space where all five senses have been lost, in a space where even time and thinking are not sure whether they still exist, a fragile consciousness questions itself.

Can the weakened nerves and crippled body hold on?

While he was waiting for the light to come in the next second or the next year, a substance that destroyed his body caused pain in his body.

pain?

Not to mention vision and hearing, being able to maintain the reality of the world and self-awareness is a huge challenge here, and pain is even a luxury "feeling".

With this faint but real feeling of pain, Lin once again maintained his consciousness and did not collapse for this short yet long moment.

Mebius?... I don't have a chance to thank you...

After a breath, Lin fell on the top of the mountain, gasping for breath at a speed that almost turned his lungs over. Beads of sweat the size of beans kept dripping from his forehead. The only remaining emerald pupils completely dispersed and contracted in just one second before repeating this dangerous behavior.

The position of his left hand was bare, with only the part he had cut off remaining. After another close contact with the emperor-level Honkai beast and the Herrscher, the load of Honkai energy erosion had reached its limit. If it weren't for the bright green liquid flowing in his blood vessels and burning some of the eroded parts like flames, he wouldn't even have the strength to stand up.

Weapons, got it.

Phase shifter, recaptured.

His left hand disappeared and his chest was severely damaged. Lin tore open his clothes and simply wrapped himself up. It couldn't stop the bleeding, but it could delay for a while.

Lin knew that he would probably not be able to make big moves due to his physical condition, but no matter how harsh the conditions were, it was not a reason for him to give up here, so the next time would be the time when he planned to decide the outcome.

The status of the Sixth Herrscher is actually relatively easy to resolve. She considers herself a human being and is indeed very close to a human being, so Lin can treat her as a human being with some powers.

The concepts of dealing with humans and dealing with the Herr cannot be compared.

……

"Lin, you are not hurt..."

She looked at "Lin" who was standing there in a daze with anxiety and worry.

“…No.” Lin let out a long sigh, “Sorry, I let him run away.”

"That assassin... I feel like he seems a little different..." Her head felt a sharp pain, making it difficult for her to remember the feeling the assassin gave her just now.

But that look is really unforgettable, and a deep pain lingers in my heart.

"You think too much, soul. Dead soldiers are dead soldiers. Don't have any mercy on them." The blue window of "Lin" lit up faintly in the darkness, and a ghost light was swaying. He said to her who was doubtful, "If you have any illusion that they are still human, you will fall into the trap of collapse. That is a blasphemy to the dead."

"Blasphemy... Yes, yes... You said that before. How could I have such thoughts..."

Her eyes lit up and she regained her "consciousness" after hearing these words. Lin once said that there should not be any hesitation, as that would be an insult and betrayal to the deceased.

"Even if there really is a Honkai creature that can maintain human consciousness, the probability is so small that it is no different from the birth of the first creature..."

Is there such a chance that I'll run into her?

To be fair, it's impossible.

So abandon all illusions and fight with all your heart.

……

"Have the emperor-level Honkai beasts appeared already..." Kevin sat in the "cockpit" without any operable equipment, staring coldly at the front-line information updated in real time.

After seeing Lin choose to fight the Herrscher and the Emperor-level Honkai Beast alone, and the information that he withdrew from the Fire Moth, his eyes froze for a second, but he immediately regained his composure.

Why on earth are humans still killing their fellow humans?

Why on earth do people who don’t want to die die?

Why on earth did a person who didn't want to kill anyone kill his companion?

In the eyes of the dying betrayer, Kevin saw only one sentence: his unwillingness and determination, his hostility and righteousness.

“Are you satisfied with this world?”

He asked himself, holding his heart that was still beating but no longer hurt, if he was satisfied with the world like this?

For Mei, he could give his life. She was everything to him, an existence that meant far more than anyone else.

What Mei wants is a future that defeats Honkai, a beautiful future without such betrayal and fratricide.

So she became rational, cold, and took advantage of everything, and drifted further and further away from that shy girl.

So, what about him?

Is he satisfied with this world where Mei's existence is enough?

The disintegrating fire-chasing moth and Lin’s dying body kept flashing before his eyes.

Are you really...satisfied?

Chapter 90: The Hope of Staying

The black spots falling from the sky were like some of the rain in a downpour. As they got closer, I could see clearly that they were actually large spikes as long as two stories high, densely packed onto the peak of the back mountain.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The continuous bombardment flattened half of the top of the mountain. There was nothing in the rising dust except the plowed soil. Seeing this, the porcupine swallowed the high-compression collapse energy brewing in its mouth back into its body and began to carefully look for the target.

The Sixth Herrscher had already hurried back to the death warriors. To her, nothing was more important than these "companions".

But just as she took a step closer to the dead soldiers and wanted to smash the rubble falling from above her head, Lin holding a gun appeared right behind her. Bullets whizzed out in an instant. The specialized anti-Honkai weapon bullets mercilessly tore through the air and flew towards her head.

A ball of black mist shot out consciously from behind her. The thick darkness swallowed up all the bullets in its path and reached towards Lin's body.

However, Lin's figure blurred for a moment, and he flashed in front of the Sixth Herrscher just before the black fog touched him. He put down the rifle hanging around his neck, bit the fuse of the grenade, and threw it in front of the Sixth Herrscher.

"Oh!"
