I'm not Yingjie

Ordinary weapons cannot damage the Herrscher Core. No, even the most advanced weapons currently available to mankind cannot cause any damage to the Herrscher Core.

But her body still has a human structure, and most of her weaknesses are the same as humans. For example, with this wound, even a Herrscher cannot avoid the impact of damage to blood vessels, muscles, organs, etc. Even if Honkai energy can speed up the healing of wounds, it does not mean that these injuries are meaningless.

This forced her to use the power to heal herself.

The power of creation, which is the opposite of the power of death that decomposes matter, is much more difficult to use. Generally speaking, she can use this power to create some Honkai creatures, such as the dead soldiers, Honkai beasts and the tree. This is the simplest use.

Of course, since it is related to "life", healing is inevitable. However, healing may be completely contrary to the nature of the death power of the same body, so there are many restrictions on its use. Even healing such a minor injury requires her full concentration, and the previous gunshot wound is similar.

Soon, under the influence of the rules of that world, her wounds healed, and her red eyes lit up again in the dark sky, staring at the blue flash that was rushing towards her.

"Oh!"

The Sixth Herrscher collided head-on with Kevin, the dagger and sickle collided, fierce sparks erupted, igniting the faces of both parties.

They had no expression on their faces, as if they had shed their humanity and turned into machines designed only to kill each other.

The power was mobilised without reservation, and a life-consuming black mist emerged from the sickle and pounced on Kevin, but he retreated as expected and disappeared into the air.

"!"

Phase shifting device!

There is no doubt that Kevin took over the phase transfer device that Lin had taken with his life from him. At this moment, the Sixth Herrscher lost her mobility advantage and could only judge Kevin's location by vision.

In order to prevent Kevin from appearing nearby and attacking her, the Sixth Herrscher's black mist covered her body. "

"Bang bang bang!"

The sounds of three missile launches made the Sixth Herrscher instinctively want to use her shield for defense, but in the next second, three penetrating bombs that were not completely destroyed hit her shield. The explosion that could not be blocked caused her body to tremble and fall downwards.

Kevin retracted the missile pod on his leg, took a look at the three remaining penetrating bombs, and rushed towards the Herrscher with a cold expression.

The speed at which the black fog corrodes non-living matter is not so fast that it can destroy it in an instant. Even if the black fog can absorb some of the kinetic energy and heat energy of the penetrating bullet, it is impossible to completely block it without defense at this distance. The situation where the split bomb launched by the Fifth Branch to intercept the transport plane was completely decomposed before it hit the target and could not explode inside will not occur.

A hint of emerald green flashed in the eyes of the falling Sixth Herrscher, and her burnt skin returned to normal in the blink of an eye.

Phase shift device? That person really knew where the enemy's pain point was. As long as her mobility was taken away, her threat level would drop by more than one level! That's why he used such a cheap trick to deceive her without hesitation!

That damn human!

Chapter 101 Heart and Soul

The Titan's flying speed was so fast that it only took less than ten minutes to travel from one city to another. In a blink of an eye, Prometheus had already returned to the sky above the city where the fifth branch was located on the Titan, carrying Lin's body.

The streets full of destruction and loneliness were filled with monsters. It was as if the world was left with only the still-moving zombies and demons with sharp fangs and claws. All the Honkai creatures in the city were still rushing towards the Fifth Branch, and in that place, the soldiers were still struggling to resist the offensive of the emperor-level Honkai beasts.

Some flying Honkai beasts discovered this steel enemy and immediately surrounded it. The autonomous Titans automatically used their weapons to shoot down the approaching Honkai beasts without any need for control.

But Prometheus no longer cared about all this.

She seemed to have lost her functions, her arms under the ball joints holding Lin's temperatureless body. The sophisticated monitor that originally symbolized the pinnacle of human technology, that is, her eyes with complex lines, had lost its original line-like patterns.

When Lin took her into the phase-shifted space, she felt Lin's consciousness through the neural connection.

As a bionic robot without real consciousness, after entering that space, she should have been directly trapped in a logical dead end that could not be calculated due to the special nature of the space and should have been scrapped on the spot. However, through the neural connection, Lin conveyed a faint call to her.

So Prometheus saw Lin's face.

A face that I have seen many times but is still extremely unfamiliar to me.

He was smiling to himself.

“I want to see Lin smile.”

"If you can laugh yourself, then I'll show you."

The previous conversation echoed in his mind through the neural connection. Prometheus subconsciously stretched out his hand, but it passed through Lin's body.

He disappeared like a bubble, along with his smile.

Why, at the very end, this person is still fulfilling other people's wishes.

Even if that person is just an artificial intelligence that is not even human.

"Have I laughed yet, Lin..."

Her empty pupils reflected Lin Qibai's face without being able to focus.

……

"Cough cough cough..."

Himiko held her sword, her face covered in dust as she glared at the porcupine, which was leisurely crushing the bodies of the Fire Moth soldiers beneath its feet into blood plasma. It even raised its front hooves provocatively, allowing all the soldiers to see the blood, hair and skin on its feet.

The difficulty of this emperor-level Honkai beast is beyond everyone's imagination. If the judgment-level Honkai beast Shesha is the most powerful Honkai beast in history, then this unnamed porcupine-type emperor-level Honkai beast is definitely the individual with the highest IQ.

It never falls into the encirclement of the soldiers, and often lets other Honkai creatures serve as cannon fodder. Then it finds the right time to break down the human defenses bit by bit, while maintaining a good condition, it reduces the strength of the human side.

And it is well aware that its eyes and abdomen are weak points, so it never exposes these areas to the attack range of snipers and Titans with long-range attack capabilities.

In the gaps when humans are unable to defend themselves, the porcupine will use its quills to make humans dodge, which is a huge headache. Then it will take the opportunity to attack the Titans. So far, nine Titans have been destroyed by its mouth.

After the attack, it would curl itself up into a ball to defend itself against the attack, and its hard shell was almost impossible to penetrate with their weapons.

Himiko felt that she was not fighting a Honkai beast, but playing against a treacherous and cunning human. This Honkai beast would even show off its power and break through their psychological defenses.

"What should we do, Captain Himiko? Can we really win? Will we die here?"

Himiko turned her head and saw a newcomer who had just joined the team hiding behind the defense line and shivering. He couldn't even hold his weapon steadily, his pupils contracted and dilated, and his heart rate might have exceeded the limit.

The moment Himiko saw his expression, she was at a loss.

She couldn't answer him.

According to the current situation, it is likely only a matter of time before this emperor-level Honkai beast breaks through their defenses. By then, not only will they be killed by the Honkai creatures, they may also be turned into toys by this Honkai beast and used to attack the people of the Fifth Branch.

But as the temporary captain, she couldn't say that. She had to boost morale and give them hope.

But does she really have the qualifications and ability?

Himiko found that her hands were shaking. She was more afraid than ever since she went to the battlefield.

It’s not that I’m afraid of the enemy, but that I’m afraid of my own teammates and my comrades.

They were once members of the fifth team. They died in the second collapse. Their bodies were so disfigured that she couldn't even tell which part of their body belonged to which person. In the end, only their cold names were left engraved in the cemetery.

Now a member of the fifth team, Lin is missing all four limbs and is suffering from Honkai disease. He may die at any time. Soul betrayed the Fire Moth and was defeated by himself, but transformed into the Sixth Herrscher and completely became the enemy of mankind. Desdobia is seriously injured and unconscious and is still in the emergency room of the headquarters.

She found that she had never been able to protect her teammates.

He just let them get injured and die time and time again, and lost them time and time again, leaving only himself, the incompetent captain, to survive in the world.

She was the only one left, standing here, ready to give the order to send her team members to their deaths.

Himiko's breathing stopped. She couldn't say the words to ask this man to keep fighting. She didn't want to encourage this new recruit to keep fighting.

Even if we were to be annihilated here...

"Captain Himiko!"

A loud shout made Himiko shudder. She subconsciously looked forward, and a sharp look made her heart tremble.

Hua threw the assassins in front of her away. She wiped the blood from her eyelids and shouted, "Captain Himiko! When will we counterattack? Tell us!"

"magnificent……"

"Tell me! It has always been you and the captain who have been guiding me and telling me the direction to go! Isn't it the same now?" Hua panted and clenched his fists. "The captain told me, and you told me too, that if I can't see the direction clearly, I can use you as a signpost!"

Himiko looked at Hua, the child she watched grow step by step into an excellent soldier.

"You are the captain's captain. He told me that you set an example for him, so don't let the captain down, and don't let me down, Captain Himiko! If you want to drink, I will definitely drink with you when I get back!"

"...I was actually taught a lesson by you."

Himiko's hands stopped trembling, her eyes flashed, she grabbed the giant sword and smashed it out, cutting the assassin behind Hua in half with one sword.

"Don't worry, humans will definitely win. We have never lost. Believe in yourself, and believe... no, just believe in yourself." She smiled and nodded to the recruit.

Then she glared at the porcupine.

"Counterattack? You guys hold the line, I'm alone... that's enough."

Chapter 102 Scarlet Rose

Fighting against an emperor-level Honkai beast alone, only the fearless Lin would do such a thing.

All the recorded records of conquering higher-level Honkai beasts are tragic and life-threatening battles. Without the assistance of Titans and advanced equipment, it is undoubtedly a very arrogant and reckless thing to want to defeat an emperor-level Honkai beast with a power similar to that of a Herrscher.

But continuing to drag it out will only make the disadvantage worse and worse. The only way to break the deadlock is to stand up and take a gamble. Surrounded by a sea of ​​corpses and blood of Honkai creatures, the emperor-level Honkai beast must be defeated, and the other Honkai creatures can be cleaned up with the help of Titans.

Currently, this front is barely maintained, with only one person at most trying. Even the Titans must assist in the defense. Otherwise, once it is breached, the fifth branch will be destroyed and the Far East will suffer a devastating blow.

Then there is only one candidate, and that is Himiko, who has the highest level of experience, strength and status among those present.

Himiko passed by Hua, grabbed the giant sword stuck in the body of the dead man, strode forward, and smiled charmingly: "Don't worry, Lian Lin can defeat the emperor-level and judgment-level Houkai beasts alone. I am the captain of your captain, how can I lose?"

Yes, no matter what, she shouldn't waver.

The lost past cannot be recovered, so we should protect the present. If every failure remains at the same point, she will not be able to face her dead comrades and teammates.

Himiko shook the ground with her foot, raised the scarlet giant sword with both hands, took a deep breath, and exerted all her strength from her waist to her whole body.

"Get out of my way!"

The blade was burning with blazing flames, and the huge sword was swung with no skill at all, causing the high temperature to instantly engulf the battlefield in front of him.

The slightly lighter assassins flew away under this blow. Himiko, who had cleared the area in front of her, did not hesitate and ran forward with the giant sword held upside down in both hands. The area cleared behind her was filled up again in an instant.

Every blow was delivered with full force, and every blow produced a powerful sonic boom, with the fiery heat burning fiercely in the dark night.

Among the Fire Moth's soldiers, only a minority use melee weapons, and only a minority use greatswords. This weapon is a burden for soldiers who need to be flexible and dodge on the battlefield. Physical strength will drop rapidly when wielding it. It is also slow, heavy, and bulky, and its lethality is sometimes even less than that of ordinary weapons.

But Himiko has been using heavy weapons since the beginning. Her strength is unrivaled among the Fire Moths. With the blessing of the armor, not to mention humans, even Honkai beasts...

Two Temple-level Honkai beasts blocked the way forward. A cold light flashed in Himiko's eyes. She did not choose to take a detour. Instead, all the power armor on her body was running at full capacity at the same time. She stepped on the ground with one foot, and spider-web-like cracks spread all over the ground beneath her feet.

"boom!"

Two knight spears slashed at her at the same time, but the red-haired woman stood still and pressed the giant sword to her right side. Then, with the roar of the armor, she swung the blade with her eyes wide open, and faced two Honkai beasts that were taller than Titans head-on!

The three weapons came into contact, but the stalemate did not last for half a second before the lances of the two Honkai beasts were blasted away by the giant sword!

The overall imbalance caused by the rebound of the force applied is inevitable for all Honkai beasts. The giant sword of Po Shi smashed into the ground and stood up like tofu. Himiko did not pull it out again, but held the hilt with one hand, exerted force from the ground, used the giant sword as support, and kicked the shield of one of the temple-level Honkai beasts.

What was unbelievable was that the huge Honkai beast was kicked away like a dead soldier, and smashed into the group of dead soldiers, crushing a large number of them into paste.

Himiko turned around and landed on the ground as if she was dancing a waltz, then she picked up the giant sword and slashed it diagonally on the shield of the remaining Honkai beast. The terrifying force instantly split the Honkai beast and its shield in half.

"howl?"

When the porcupine saw a strange army breaking into the wave of Honkai creatures, its huge body trembled, and then it stared at Himiko who was rushing towards it with murderous intent.

With its wisdom, it is not difficult to see that this is the elite among humans, the leader of the soldiers who are still fighting stubbornly, and an existence with a similar status to it.

If this man were killed, the remaining human resistance would collapse.

And it has been maintaining its status so that it can cope with the current situation.

"Roar--"

The roar of the Emperor-level Honkai Beast shook the dead soldiers in front of it into pulp, and highly compressed Honkai energy condensed in its mouth. This move consumed a huge amount of energy and would be blocked by the plasma shield of the combined Titans, but since this human had left the Titan's protection network, it could completely bomb her into ashes at this distance.

Ink-black rays shot out from its fang-filled mouth, and the dead soldiers and collapsed beasts that were touched were decomposed into ashes.

While running, Himiko saw the high-level Honkai energy reaction on the system displayed on her contact lenses. Her pupils shrank, and then the dark rays swept past her position without giving her time to react.

It is an energy with similar properties to the black mist. It is a unique ability of the upper-level Honkai beasts that are followers of the Sixth Herrscher. If it and the tree are included in the Sixth Herrscher's subordinates, then the tree possesses the Sixth Herrscher's power of creation, and it is the power of withering.

Living things are unable to resist attacks of this nature.

The porcupine roared triumphantly towards the place where Himiko disappeared.

Using part of its energy to kill the elites seems to be a good deal for it.

But the next second, a strong wind sounded overhead.

"You pig, even if you have wisdom, you are still a pig!"

The intelligent porcupine that resembled a human raised its head, and was greeted by a powerful chop from a knife. Being temporarily weak and unprepared, it was hit right in the right eye by the knife, splitting the entire area from the eye socket to the lower jaw.

"Ah——" A miserable howl burst out from its mouth as it was smashed into the ground.

“Hu…Hu…Hehehe…Can Honkai beasts scream? Then you are really far inferior to your compatriots…”
