I'm not Yingjie

It didn't take long for Kevin to issue his first conservative order: "Adopt a four-man formation, divide into two groups and advance to the nearest high-Honkai energy area first."

……

"bass!"

When the last Honkai beast fell, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and put away their weapons. After a brief rest, they would head to the next area, with the goal of clearing all the Honkai beasts in the high-risk areas first.

"Lin... Captain, do you have any other instructions?" One of them asked Lin who was squatting next to the corpse of the Honkai beast. After being divided into two groups, Lin had the highest authority, so he was the temporary commander besides Kevin.

It is outrageous to call a captain who is younger than you and joined the team later than you. It feels so ridiculous to experience this feeling twice in one month.

Lin did not answer. He turned over the body of the Honkai beast. It was a familiar-looking Honkai beast. He had seen a similar aquatic monster in the deepest place. In addition to the ability to float in the air, it also had a certain Honkai energy control ability.

[According to analysis, the body structure of this Honkai Beast is 86% similar to that of the Honkai Beast in the Deep Place, and it is confirmed to be a lower-level Honkai Beast of the same level.]

[Also, the body of this Honkai Beast is 80% water, so it can be judged to be transformed from marine life.]

"..."

Marine life...

A total of five Honkai beasts have been defeated along the way, all of which are the same type of marine Honkai beasts. Even no dead soldiers or other types of Honkai beasts have been seen. This coincidence makes Lin a little alert.

"This should be seafood that was blown here with the typhoon and mutated." Seeing that Lin had been investigating the Honkai beast over and over again, an impatient team member couldn't help but say.

"..."

This is confusing a typhoon with a tornado. The wind speed in the center of a typhoon is high, and the centrifugal force and suction are low, so it can only roll up big waves at most. However, the wind speed around a tornado can reach a terrifying speed of 100 meters per second. The central air pressure is low, and the inertial centrifugal force and the pressure gradient are balanced. Only under such conditions will the water and fish be rolled into the sky.

Wait, a tornado?

Lin called up the weather map and observed the distribution of the wind field.

He had a strange feeling that this typhoon was extremely similar to the thunderstorm of the Third Honkai. Generally speaking, it can be judged that they are both natural disasters caused by the birth of advanced creations of Honkai energy. This has nothing to do with their own will, or the Third Herrscher did not fully master the power in such a short time, resulting in the uncontrolled transformation of the entire city into a pool of thunder.

But this time, Lin didn't think it was just a passive trigger.

First of all, the only ones that could cause such large-scale destruction could be Emperor-level Honkai Beasts or Judgement-level Honkai Beasts. However, since the first contact with the First Honkai, the higher-level Honkai Beasts have been unique in both appearance and ability. Those unique features are even different from the Herrschers they are loyal to, that is, the "conspicuous" existence.

But this time, during the past month, there have been no reports of sightings of higher-level Honkai beasts.

Then, why does the wind field only exist in this city and not move? Will the Honkai beasts be so docile and stay in the same place for a month?

The last and most strange point is, why are all the Honkai beasts we see belonging to the "ocean"?

The crusade was almost halfway through, and according to the route they were about to meet up with Kevin. The journey was smooth, unlike in the Honkai Beast Field, but Lin was becoming more and more uneasy.

This calm before the storm, and the feeling of being able to vaguely perceive undercurrents in the calm, is exactly the same as the eerie peace before every major collapse.

Thinking of the gaze he felt when he first stepped into the city, he stood up and shook off the powder juice on his hands: "Contact Kevin."

【Called to Kevin】

"Lin, what happened?" Kevin's work was also coming to an end. He wondered why Lin contacted at this time, "Did you find a higher-level Honkai beast?"

"Do not……"

Lin asked Kevin about the type of Honkai beast he encountered.

"Indeed, all the Honkai beasts I encountered here were of the same type."

"..."

Just as Lin was about to say something, Prometheus’ bright red prompt appeared in the upper right corner.

[Lin, the wind level in the city is rising rapidly, and tornadoes have appeared out of nowhere in many places]

[The wind speed at the edge of the city has increased to level 15, and it is no longer possible to enter or exit normally]

【trap】

And right above Lin and his group, emerald green eyes were watching every prey in the city with a hunter's eyes.

Chapter 2: The Collapse Conspiracy

"Nineteenth record, time: Zi————, gender: male, age: 5 years old."

A person whose face I couldn't see was squatting in front of me.

"Did you listen to the nurse?"

"..."

"It's really a headache..." He sighed, "Okay, let's get to the point."

The child sitting on the chair looked at the video camera expressionlessly.

"Do you remember how you fell from the third floor without getting hurt?"

"Xiao Lin."

……

"what happened?"

Delta, who was modifying parameters on the transport plane, saw the red alarms lighting up around him and suddenly stood up and asked the others who were also stunned.

There is only one possibility for this level of alarm - a major collapse.

"Where did the collapse happen?!"

Soon, unexpected results came out.

"No major collapse occurred..."

Delta was stunned, then asked seriously: "What is this alarm?"

The man looked at the communicator and swallowed his saliva: "A Herrscher has appeared..."

"...There was no major collapse, but a Herrscher was born?"

"Yes, there was a Herrscher reaction on Mu Continent three minutes ago, but that was only a high-Honkai energy reaction of a single Herrscher, which means no large-scale Honkai occurred."

"A hurricane that lasted for a month..." Delta suddenly had an idea and a terrifying thought came to his mind, "Could it be..."

……

"A Herrscher's reaction appeared in the sky! It has been confirmed to be the Fourth Herrscher!"

"Why didn't a major collapse occur and a Herrscher was born?!"

A cold voice broke into the intense conversation in the team's communications.

“It’s a trap.”

Lin Yan reported concisely to all the teams on the communicator.

"Trap?" Hen didn't quite understand this statement.

"The fourth collapse occurred a month ago, but not here." Lin sent a message to everyone's communication, "but on the sea."

"maritime?!"

Kevin looked at the information in front of him. This was the global weather monitoring and shipwreck sorting from a month ago. He read it carefully and found a clue.

"What is this abnormal cyclone?" He saw the most striking weather on the ocean.

"That's the Fourth Herrscher." Lin used his visual window to draw the location of the cyclone. "A month ago, the day before the typhoon landed here, a civilian cruise ship with 500 people suddenly lost contact. The last location before losing contact was the coordinates of this cyclone."

"When the search and rescue team arrived, they found only a small amount of wreckage and they thought it might have been caused by a tornado at sea."

"But in fact, there should have been a large-scale collapse there, destroying the ship, and then the surrounding marine life was corroded into the collapsed beasts, which are the ones we encountered this time."

Kevin took a deep breath, and he suddenly realized why Lin asked him that question, which was to confirm whether the guess was correct.

Why didn't a major collapse occur, but the Herrscher was born?

Because the large-scale collapse occurred in the blind spot that they could not see.

"Then the fourth Herrscher, who was born among the five hundred people, used her power to create a tornado and brought the Honkai beasts here. She also changed the wind field here, causing abnormal phenomena and some high Honkai energy reactions. She hid in a place where she could not be detected, luring us into the trap."

"After determining whether this is a large-scale collapse, the Fire Moth will send out a number of combatants that are neither too many nor too few, and she will be able to annihilate us to reduce the Fire Moth's manpower."

This collapse was a complete blow to the Fire Moth.

Lin's face didn't look good either.

The first three collapses all occurred in densely populated cities, so they all took it for granted that the collapse would pursue efficiency and bring each collapse to the city, but this time the collapse went the other way and targeted the Fire Moth, the only human being who could deal with the collapse.

It was as if the Herrscher had experience and intelligence, having learned from the lessons of the three previous defeats by the Fire Moths, and had formulated a comprehensive strategy to first reduce the Fire Moths' power and then carry out the plan of destruction.

After the prey entered the hunting ground, the hunter took out her hunting rifle.

Moreover, this time the Fourth Herrscher is far from being comparable to the Third Herrscher who has not fully mastered her power. She has one month to master the power of the Herrscher. She can isolate the city from the outside world and create wind fields and tornadoes with terrifying lethality at will, which is proof of this.

"..."

In the communication channel, only the heavy rain and the violent wind were howling, and everyone was silent.

"Where are the coordinates of the Herrscher?" Hen asked after a long silence.

Now that you have fallen into the trap, there is only one way to break out.

Kill the Herrscher.

Lin looked up: "The Herrscher's reaction distance is nine thousand meters above us."

"what!"

Nine kilometers?

Lian Hen couldn't help but exclaim.

Nine thousand meters is a combat range that can only be reached by fighter jets.

How can they, humans who can only reach the top of the city, reach that distance?

Now, surrounded by the wind field, the tornado is sweeping the ground madly, cutting and destroying everything it touches, while the owner of the attack is watching the struggle of mankind from a distance that no one can reach.

"We were able to contact headquarters. They are dispatching reinforcements and fighter jets."

This is the only good news.

But can a fighter really fight against a Herrscher?

Judging from the current performance, the power of the Fourth Herrscher is undoubtedly related to the wind. So can fighter jets break through the wind field created by the Herrscher?

No one responded.

In the previous collapses, humans used almost all their small and medium-sized weapons, but none of them could cause effective damage to the Herrscher. The lethality of large weapons would probably cause more harm than the collapse.

Of course fighter jets were also dispatched, but in the face of that strange power, their performance was even worse than that of the Fire Moth soldiers.

"There is a way." At this time, Lin said lightly.

"any solution?"

"Titan."

Lin's two words gave everyone a shot of adrenaline.

Yes, isn't the latest weapon, the Titan, on the way? And the pilot is here too, so there's still hope.

Hen was still worried: "Can Titan reach that level?"

"can."

Lin's word represents the greatest trust in Delta.

"Well, there's nothing we can do now."

"Besides that, we have one more thing to sort out."

"..."

As soon as Lin finished speaking, a fatal bright red color appeared on everyone's Honkai energy detector.
