The unharmed Sixth Herrscher walked out of the smoke, his scarlet pupils gazing at the emerald green eyes in the distance in the night.

It was meaningless. Conventional weapons could no longer harm her. Even if she was still in the period of adapting to her power, the Sixth Herrscher's ability was specific to humans and she was no longer an enemy that a single human could handle.

During this moment of confrontation, the emperor-level Honkai beast at the foot of the mountain came to the mountainside with heavy steps. It blocked the falling rocks, and those dead warriors also stood silently behind the Sixth Herrscher.

All the "people" surrounded Lin, and at this moment, Lin was the lonely alien.

"Are you a conscious dead soldier?"

The Sixth Herrscher spoke to Lin abruptly, and as if afraid that he didn't understand, he gestured a few times with his hands, and there was actually some expectation in his eyes.

Lin's finger trembled on the trigger.

The voice was not much different from "hers", except that it had a more "ethereal" feel that was far away from the mundane world and was inhuman.

It's like "she" is still "her".

"If you are conscious, can you talk to me? I don't think you are a real monster. Is there something you can't explain that made you attack me and my friends?"

"Killing is bad... I don't think you like killing people, right? I apologize to my friends and I for attacking you. I can heal your injuries. Can you stop? If you are conscious, there must be a way to turn the dead man back into a human..."

Lin listened quietly to her explaining to him with a smile on her face. When she saw that he did not make another move, she seemed to have let down her guard and gestured even more vigorously.

It was so clumsy that it seemed like we were back to the time when we first met.

What Lin thought of at this moment was the Second Herrscher's companion Honkai beast, a Honkai beast whose abilities had not been fully studied even now.

Its destructive power is not as good as other emperor-level Honkai beasts, but it has a strange "travel" ability. It often disappears suddenly and reappears suddenly, but each time it appears, it will be in the place where it disappeared before.

At the beginning, the Fire Moths regarded it as a manifestation of part of the power of the Second Herrscher, the Herrscher of the Void, but later they discovered that the disappearance of this emperor-level Honkai Beast Vashak was far from being explained by spatial abilities.

That is a phenomenon more akin to "traveling" through time.

If the ability of the Honkai beast named Vashak is really the ability to travel through time, at this moment when he feels cowardly, a trace of delusion remains in a corner of his frozen heart.

"I'm Lin."

Lin spoke to the Sixth Herrscher.

As soon as he spoke, the Sixth Herrscher frowned in confusion. To her, the assassin seemed to be saying something to her consciously, but to her it was just an irregular roar.

“You can write it down…”

“And how much of this body belongs to ‘Lin’?” Lin raised his head without his right eye, his arm without his left hand, and his thigh without his right foot. He was almost unrecognizable as a human being, and he shouted with all his might to the Sixth Herrscher who was still smiling and talking to himself.

His blood was corroded by the venom, his organs and muscles turned pale and deteriorated under the influence of Honkai energy, his brain was surgically modified, and his consciousness was scattered into fragments in the memories that were not sure whether they were true or false. From the inside out, Lin did not look like a real human being, and the part that belonged to him was so small that it could not be seen clearly.

"But even so, I am 'Lin', not 'Zero', nor MSA-079. Now I am just 'Lin', and this will not change at all." Lin looked up at the night sky. There were no stars and no moonlight. This world had been dark and gloomy from the beginning, and there was no way out.

"Even if you have the same appearance as her, the same personality, seemingly normal consciousness, and a nearly perfect disguise, it cannot change the fact that you are not a soul."

Lin raised his gun and pointed it at the silent Sixth Herrscher. He was always calm and composed, but at this moment, the Sixth Herrscher saw the sadness that belonged to human beings in his eyes.

"You are a Herrscher, not a soul, and you are just imitating her to deceive me."

silence.

The Sixth Herrscher, who originally didn't understand what Lin was saying, was unexpectedly calm at this moment. She first raised her head to look in the direction of the Fifth Branch, and then stared at Lin, the human who was still struggling with his efforts, with her eyes that were becoming increasingly bright red.

"You're smarter than I thought."

"She" spoke.

Changing from the familiar tone just now, the disdain and mockery in "her" tone were like an irresistible desire to show off, displayed without reservation.

"She" leisurely glanced at the assassins behind her, then walked away from them without caring at all, took a few steps forward, and came in front of Lin.

Facing the gun raised by Lin, "she" pretended to be coquettish and smiled, and shouted softly: "Captain Lin~ When did you find out~ I think I even fooled myself~"

"Don't you have any hope at all? Hope that the Herrscher still retains human consciousness, and your companion still has a chance to return to her former self, that she is still the little girl who foolishly follows you and secretly clenched her fists in the hope of helping you when she sees you risking your life."

"Or are you so hard-hearted that you won't even leave yourself this little bit of hope?"

The Sixth Herrscher's sneer rang out desperately in the night.

Chapter 91: Support Arrives

"You are exactly like the cold helmeted man in my memory. You look even less human than I do. Most people would have a little hope for a miracle at this time."

"To make it more reasonable, I deliberately made it so that 'I' couldn't understand what you said, so that it seemed that 'I' was just seeing the world differently."

"Hmm? Speak up, my lovely Captain Lin, how are you feeling now?"

The face that was facing him was that familiar one, but the expression was mischievous and cunning that had never appeared in his soul. Her long hair fell over her shoulders, and her seductive red eyes met his green eyes.

If someone else came here, they would probably think she was just an ordinary cute girl.

But Lin knew that the person in front of him was the real Sixth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Death who controlled the power of withering.

"You don't talk? You're such a boring man. If you think about it, you rarely do interesting things. You never socialize or have fun. You just work for the purpose of saving humanity all day long. You're just like a robot. I don't know what attracts girls."

"But looking at your face now makes me feel a little interested~"

"She" smiled and stretched out her hand to touch the corner of Lin's face, but he dodged it with a flash. "She" was not angry at this, and continued to speak to the silent Lin leisurely: "Speaking of which, has the Fire Moth confirmed what my code name is?"

"..."

"Haha, don't be so boring. In exchange, if you tell me this, I can also tell you something interesting~"

Lin stared at "her" and saw that "she" had no intention of taking action, so he slowly exhaled and said, "The Herrer of Death."

"Oh~ Very vivid, but not very comprehensive. If you have seen all my powers, maybe you will change it to... Ruler of Life and Death? Uh, that's weird..."

"..."

"But I'm very happy that you told me this, Captain Lin, so I'll also tell you something worth being happy about." "She" pretended to be respectful, but in fact her tone was full of condescending contempt. "Your 'soul', she does still exist in this body."

Lin's pupils dilated.

"How is it? Are you surprised?"

She showed malice on her face without reservation.

……

"Here is..."

Kevin stared at the ruined city. The desolate and chaotic scene reminded him of Changkong City in the storm. He seemed to have returned to the night before he joined the Fire Moth.

On the night when a hundred demons roam the night sky, the starlight cannot penetrate and the moonlight is blocked.

Dressed in military uniform, he stood on Titan's arm and saw the building where the fifth branch was located at a glance.

The fifth branch seemed to be in danger at this time. Countless advancing-level Honkai beasts surrounded the building and attacked the defense devices with their wings that were like cutting blades. There were also many mutants among them. From a distance, it looked like a nest of Honkai beasts.

Under the building was a street filled with dead soldiers. He could not see the slightest crack in the ground. The sea of ​​corpses formed by the dead soldiers was five stories high, covering the bottom of the building and continuing to pile up.

However, the reason why they have not completely overwhelmed the Fifth Branch with their numbers is that a pink figure is active on the battlefield.

The transparent blade pierced into the body of the Honkai beast as easily as tofu. Cold air exploded in its body, instantly freezing the huge Honkai beast into an ice sculpture. Then the two knives chopped off from the head, splitting the Honkai beast into three pieces at a speed so fast that only two beams of light could be seen connected in a line. The beast smashed to the ground and shattered into pieces of ice.

She grasped the ice blade in her backhand and swung it at the surging tide of zombies. An icy path extended from under her feet all the way to the feet of the dead soldiers. She shaped the stacked dead soldiers into giant ice sculptures, which she then smashed with the same trick.

Apparently, the one fighting hard was Sakura, who was protecting the 5th branch all alone.

It seemed that she was fighting with ease, and she could roam the battlefield unhindered even when surrounded by a large number of Honkai creatures. But in fact, she was almost at the end of her strength and was completely at the end of her rope.

No matter how fast she is or how many people she kills, a person's physical strength is limited after all. When Sakura kills one assassin, ten will appear to fill his position. When she cuts down a tank-level Honkai beast, three temple-level Honkai beasts will pounce on her.

Gradually, she began to feel overwhelmed. The fifth branch was surrounded by the breakthrough-level Honkai beasts, but she could only continue to deal with the dead soldiers and Honkai beasts on the ground. It was not difficult to see her powerlessness.

If it weren't for the massive killing power given to her by this ice blade, the fifth branch would probably have been destroyed long ago.

"Kevin, I will have some Titans protect the fifth branch, and you will be responsible for defeating the sixth Herrscher."

Mei's command began when her vision, with the help of Titan, saw this hellish scene.

Azure particles spread in the air, and dozens of Titans fell from the sky. The terrifying weight instantly crushed the dead soldiers under their feet into meat paste. Beam guns commensurate with their bodies pierced the cores of the Honkai beasts. Mechanical arms with only three fingers lifted the corpses of the Honkai beasts and smashed them into the distance. The Vulcan cannons on their shoulders fired at the Assault-class Honkai beasts that surrounded the high-rise buildings.

Exhausted Sakura looked at these giant robots that fell from the sky in surprise. Their sizes were similar to those of Honkai beasts, but their combat capabilities far exceeded those of Honkai beasts. In just a short while, the surrounding space was instantly cleared by them.

A large number of Honkai beast corpses fell from the sky. The Titans used flamethrowers to burn them all, and then used a formation of four in the air and four on the ground to defend against the still influx of Honkai beasts and the tide of dead soldiers.

"cherry."

Sakura watched as the cockpit hatch of a Titan rose up in the distance and Kevin, fully armed, jumped out of it, with even greater surprise in her eyes.

But her surprise didn't last long. She quickly adjusted herself and said to Kevin who was approaching, "Are you the support force?"

"It's not me, it's us."

As soon as he finished speaking, the hatches of other Titan cockpits also rose up. Hua, Imer, Kosmo, Hen, Irvin and other personnel left the cockpits and gathered around Kevin.

Ying nodded gently to the cold Kevin. Although she was covered in blood and exhausted, she did not look tired at all. Instead, she looked full of fighting spirit.

"We need the current status and specific location of the Herrscher." Kevin said to Sakura, and then connected to the communication channel of the Fifth Branch.

"Support troops?"

"I'm Kevin, the captain of this mission, Doctor Spasi. We and the Autonomous Titans will be responsible for defeating the Sixth Herrscher and the Emperor-class Honkai Beasts. Please report the information we need immediately."

At this time, two hours had passed since the sixth collapse.

In an amusement park in a far corner of the city, a man was pinned to the ground with a sickle piercing his abdomen, and with his dying breath he looked down upon him in mid-air... the Herrscher.

Chapter 92: Only One Request

"Why, you don't believe it? Your lovely junior is actually still alive in this body, but I will only let her see what I want her to see and remind her of what I want her to think of."

"Bang!"

The Sixth Herrscher caught the dagger with his claws without even turning his head, and said with a smile: "What do you think of your incomplete memories and the personality I have been trying to maintain? Does it remind you of something?"

"Yes, that's what that man did to you, and now I'm doing it to myself."

Lin let go of the dagger and raised the muzzle of the gun. At such a close distance, even the black fog would not be able to make it in time. But before he could pull the trigger, the sound of breaking wind above his head forced him to retreat quickly.

"Oh!"

A sharp thorn was inserted between him and the Sixth Herrscher. The porcupine watched Lin's every move with a calm look that was different from his appearance. The Sixth Herrscher walked out from behind the sharp thorn with a cheerful step and smiled gently at Lin.

"I know you want to ask now, why do I do this? Why do I, the Herrscher, look different from the previous ones?"

Lin wiped the blood off his face. He felt that there was something wrong with his body. Although it had been in an abnormal state since a year ago, the abnormality now did not refer to any defects, but... the condition was getting better.

Yes, he clearly felt that his speed was faster than before. His originally atrophied muscles were able to support a large amount of movement unconsciously. His exhausted mind was also injected with new vitality, and his reaction ability was approaching normal levels.

This couldn't be a miracle, nor could it be caused by the drugs. He stared calmly at the smiling Sixth Herrscher, and remembered what the Sixth Herrscher had said before, the "Hersher of Life and Death", and the abnormal number of assassins around her, and he had some guesses in his mind.

"This is love, Captain Lin, this is my love for you."

"..."

Under a devastated mountain, the Sixth Herrscher's long hair fluttered in the night wind. Her expression was excited and sickly, with an unnatural blush on her face. She stretched out her hands to Lin and spread them out, making a move that was very familiar to Lin.

An action that seemed like she was going to hug him.

Love?

This incredible word, spoken from the mouth of a Herrscher, is so absurd that it makes people want to laugh.

"She and I are the same person. I am her and she is me. I am not a complete Herrscher, and she is not a complete human." The Sixth Herrscher licked the corner of his mouth, and the red light in his eyes became brighter. "So we have the same personality and love the same people. You see, she wants her companions to come back to life, so I will help her realize her wish."

Her finger pointed at the group of dead warriors standing in the cold wind.

"She wanted you to survive, so I helped heal your body. You already feel that you are not as tired and in pain as before."

really……

Even though he had prepared himself mentally, when the Sixth Herrscher said this excitedly, Lin's heart sank unconsciously.

"I'm not going to hurt you now. I'm answering your questions because I love you just like she does."

"Can you understand? My team member Lin."

By the end, she could no longer hold back her desire to see the changes in Lin's expression. This was something that even Hun had never seen before. She really wanted to observe Lin's true appearance.

"you are lying."

However, Lin's decisive words made her tilt her head and asked in confusion: "Why do you think I'm lying?"

"She wouldn't do such a thing."

Lin pointed his finger at the city full of corpses and blood.
