I'm not Yingjie

"Captain, no abnormalities were found in the residential building."

Soon, after Alicia's results came out, the hearts of all the combatants sank.

Either there was something wrong with the detection device, or there was something wrong with them, or there was... a problem with this city, and now it seemed most likely the last one.

"Imer, is the Honkai energy reaction still there?" Lin asked Imer who was closely monitoring him.

"Nothing has changed... Wait a minute!"

Imer's exclamation caught Lin's attention.

"The entire Teran's Honkai energy has suddenly doubled! It has reached the standard of a small Honkai!"

"Clap."

Something hit Lin's helmet.

He looked up and just saw a piece of hail falling in front of him.

"..."

Lin watched in silence as the hailstorm gradually got heavier.

"Captain." Imer said with difficulty, "Tran's collapse can now be maintained at the level of a small collapse, but the temperature has risen."

"…issued an alert to residents not to go out during hail days."

Lin squatted down, picked up a piece of hail that had not completely melted, and shone the detection device on it.

After a brief flash, an extraordinary amount of Honkai energy appeared.

With the three teams' locations as the center, hail spread like a plague until it covered the entire city.

……

"Hail again?"

Anna, who was standing with Hua, stretched out her hand in surprise and caught a piece of hail. Although her hand hurt, she was still extremely happy and took it in front of her eyes to take a look at the crystal clear ice crystals in her palm.

"Ms. Anna, please don't touch the hail."

Hua, who received the notice, slapped the hailstones out of Anna's hand and said to her seriously, "The Houkai energy content in these hailstones exceeds the normal level and will cause harm to the body."

"Ah--" Hearing Hua's words, Anna shook her hands as if she had touched something dirty, then pressed her beret tightly and put her hands back into her sleeves.

"Will Honkai energy turn people into monsters? I heard from an uncle that if people are eroded by Honkai energy, they may become inhuman monsters." Anna looked at the hailstones shattering in front of her with fear and asked Hua to relieve her tension.

When Hua heard this question, the first person he thought of was Lin.

Captain, will you also become a dead soldier?

"Not necessarily. If the adaptability is too low after being eroded by Honkai energy, they will not be transformed into dead soldiers or Honkai beasts. They will die after their brains or hearts are eroded." Hua didn't know why Anna was allowed to act together by Lin, but since she was someone Lin recognized, Hua told her the truth.

"What if they have high adaptability? Will they become zombie-like creatures?"

Thinking of the assassin who was shot in the head, his pale skin and pink-purple blood made Anna feel nauseous.

Hua recalled the information he saw when he joined the team: "That's just the lowest level of death warriors. If they are adaptable enough, they will be transformed into high-level death warriors, or even low-level Honkai beasts. They are not comparable to ordinary death warriors."

Anna asked like a curious baby: "Low-level Honkai beasts? Does that mean there are also high-level Honkai beasts?"

"Well, the upper-level Honkai beasts are independent individuals, and they are creatures composed of pure Honkai energy. Their destructive power is much stronger than that of the lower-level Honkai beasts. If left alone, it only takes half a day to destroy a city."

"Ah? Then, isn't that uncle facing the Honkai beast alone now? You should go and help him."

"...Don't worry. The Honkai Beasts haven't appeared yet, and the captain has experience in defeating higher-level Honkai Beasts." Hua shook his head and said, "Besides, if the captain doesn't give the order, I must obey the order and stay."

"Okay..." Anna was still worried, but after hearing what Hua said, she knew that the other party had much more experience than her, so she stopped worrying and continued the previous topic, "Is the uncle very powerful? Do you have experience in defeating high-level Honkai beasts?"

"Well, the captain has already defeated two high-level Honkai beasts and two Herrschers alone. He can easily deal with ordinary Honkai beasts."

"...Another term I don't know." This was Anna's first reaction after hearing the word Herrscher. "Herrscher? This word doesn't seem to fit in with the Death Warriors and Honkai Beasts. Could this be a species similar to a BOSS?"

"Yes."

"As expected of me."

"Hershers are also a product of Honkai. They are only born in large-scale Honkai and are the most concrete manifestation of Honkai. They can control Honkai beasts and dead soldiers. Their birth is a devastating blow to human society."

Hua only used the most easily understandable words to explain what a Herrscher is. In fact, a Herrscher is much more complicated than the superficial Honkai Impact 3rd.

But Anna did have a very strong talent, and she immediately discovered the problem after hearing this description.

"'They'...Are all Herrsers female... No, are they all human females?" Anna asked, pinching her chin and frowning.

Hua looked at her in shock: "You..."

"magnificent."

At this time, Lin came back and interrupted their conversation.

Then, in front of the two stunned eyes, he fell straight forward to the ground.

like a statue.

"Captain!" "Uncle!"

……

When Lin woke up again, he was already in the ward of the third branch.

The dizziness in his head and the aches all over his body made his consciousness feel like being stabbed in the forehead with a knife the moment he woke up.

The helmet was still on his head, but the armor on his body had been removed.

"You're finally awake."

Alicia, who was standing beside the bed, was no longer as playful as before, and her voice was a little heavy.

Waiting for Lin to wake up together with her was Hen, who was now looking at Lin with a frown.

"What's wrong with me?" Lin wanted to get up from the hospital bed, but he found that his strength seemed to have been drained away, and a feeling of powerlessness filled his limbs.

Alicia sighed and said, "You fainted on the way back."

"..."

"Lin." Hen asked Lin sternly at this time, "What's wrong with your physical condition? How come your Honkai energy erosion rate is 15%?"

It seems that after the examination, Hen has also learned about Lin's condition.

15%? It seems that the cause of the coma this time was the erosion of Honkai energy.

When the Honkai energy erosion rate reaches 15%, the body of the eroded person will show symptoms of physical discomfort. Obviously, after Lin was baptized by the hail just now, the Honkai energy erosion rate exceeded the 15% mark.

"Why are you still on the front line even though your erosion rate has reached a dangerous level!"

Hen's tone had already reached the level of questioning.

And Lin just stared at him without saying a word.

Chapter 70: Wrath of Scar

"I remember you left the headquarters before, which means that the Fire Moth did not force you to go to the front line. Besides, you can also report your physical condition." Lin Dehen had been paying attention to Lin Dehen to understand his real-time movements. At this moment, this recognized mature and self-disciplined man actually looked extremely angry, "Why did you conceal your physical condition and go to the battlefield!"

"And you, Alicia." Hen looked at Alicia with angry eyes.

Alicia, who was suddenly called, blinked and pointed at herself, just like when the teacher called her name in class: "Me?"

He questioned, "You know about Lin's health problems, right?"

"How could that be? Lin and I have such a good relationship. If I knew he had health problems, I would definitely not let him go to the front line." Alicia smiled and tilted her head. "Don't you think so, Lin?"

Hen glared at her and said, "You better really mean it."

But things had come to this point and no amount of talking could change anything. Hen could only say coldly, "You are not allowed to go out again" and then slammed the door and left.

"What happened to Hen?" Lin asked Alicia.

Lin's impression of Hen still remained on the fixed image of him as the top soldier of the Fire Moth mentioned by Himiko when he first joined the Fire Moth. Later, he also knew that he married Blanca and gave birth to Grayshu.

Overall, Hen should be very similar to him.

Ai Lixia looked at the weak Lin Youyou and sighed: "Maybe some of my thoughts changed after giving birth to a child."

……

"Hey! Wait for me, Hen!"

"..."

Hen, who had been walking forward, stopped, turned back and looked coldly at Alicia who was jogging after him.

"Huh... Are you walking so fast? Do you want to participate in a walking race? Even if you are angry, don't just leave Lin behind like this. He must be so sad." After running to Hen's side, Alicia let out a long sigh and gave him a reproachful look.

"Sad?" Hen said coldly, "Do you think he looks sad or reflective?"

"Lin just doesn't show it. He's quite delicate inside."

"If he were slender he wouldn't do such a thing!"

Hen's angry roar made the whole building tremble.

"..." Alicia's unremarkable smile was still on her face, but there was no smile in her eyes at all, "Hen...did anything happen between you and Lin?"

"No." Hen seemed to calm down after this roar. He sighed and shook his head.

"You seem to have a lot to say. Shall we go somewhere else?"

……

"Let's go right here. We can just see outside."

Alicia found an unused office, closed the door and walked to the window, looking at the hail that was getting bigger and bigger with a changeable look in her eyes.

"Hen, since Lin and you don't actually have a very good relationship, why are you so angry?" Alysia turned her head and looked at Hen who was leaning against the wall, "This is a bit unlike you."

Since Hen has nothing to do with Lin Su, why would Hen, who has always been self-controllable, calm and mature, get so angry about Lin's matter?

"A few years ago, someone told me that a new member who had just joined the team did not have time to join the team, so he defeated the emperor-level Houkai beast alone during the second Houkai."

However, Hen did not directly explain the reason for his abnormal behavior, but changed the subject and started from when Lin Gang joined the Fire Moth a few years ago.

The second collapse was also the time when Alicia stole Mobius's badge and joined the Fire Moths. She disguised herself as a soldier of the Fire Moths at that time, and forged a complete joining process afterwards. According to the records, she had been in the army for three years, and Lin joined the Fire Moths shortly after that.

"In fact, I wanted to place Lin in my team at that time, but he always accepted the arrangements of the higher-ups, so I didn't meet him very often after that."

"Then there was the third Honkai. After I heard that he defeated a Judgment-level Honkai beast once again and assisted in the defeat of the Herrscher, I felt that this person must be a very powerful young man."

After Hen told his story, his emotions calmed down a lot. He suddenly smiled and said, "Then Blanca and I got married, and she was confirmed to be pregnant a month after the wedding."

"During that time, there was no shortage of news about Lin. He was a very talked-about person and even became the captain of the seventh team. Before Kevin came, he was the youngest captain among us."

"Do you know what I was thinking at that time?"

“Relieved.”

After hearing these words, Alicia understood the reason behind Hen's angry behavior.

"I see hope in Lin. His appearance makes me think that the mission of fighting Honkai can be handed over to the younger generation."

"..."

"But, he who should have symbolized hope, now..." Anger flashed in Hen's eyes again, but this time Alicia saw it clearly. It was not only anger at Lin for not cherishing his life, but also emotions such as regret and pity. "It was then that I realized that I was just imposing hope on him. He is actually just an ordinary human being."

"But it was these imposed hopes that led Lin to become like this."

“Why is it the younger him who is being eroded by the Honkai energy? Why is he still fighting even after becoming like this?”

Alicia listened to Hen's angry and helpless words in silence. After a long while, she said leisurely, "But, Hen, you would do the same thing if it were you."

"..."

"Even if it's an order to die, you will strictly follow it, because you and Lin regard yourself as a soldier instead of a fighter. This is your common belief, and it's also something you admire about Lin."

Alicia's two sentences left Hen speechless.

"Hen, I do know Lin's physical condition, but I didn't stop him." Alysia said helplessly, but not sadly, "Because this is the path Lin chose, and he sticks to it."

In this brutal and unreasonable world, people cannot choose their own destiny.

But at least, on that road without light, people can choose to step forward resolutely and face their own destiny.
