Collapse: Raising a Wife Since Childhood

Although it is winter, the light is extremely hot and it feels so hot that I feel like I am about to be swallowed up by it.

The girl sitting on the bench was in a daze for a long time, her long eyelashes were covered with crystal beads of sweat, and her bloodless and pale face seemed transparent under the light. Shen Ning slowly came back to her senses, her mind suddenly went blank, she looked around blankly, not knowing where she was for a moment.

Until I noticed the head pressing on my shoulder, Wendy fell asleep in the sun, her cheeks were pink and covered with a layer of fine hair, which made her look even cuter, her eyelashes covered her face and trembled occasionally, it seemed that she was sleeping very peacefully.

Shen Ning came to his senses and realized that they were basking in the sun and he fell asleep without realizing it. He didn't know when his body organs had become dull and were overwhelmed by the ever-present pain. This was a bit strange.

Didn't she drink Shen Yunie's blood? Logically, she shouldn't feel any pain for at least a few hours.

She raised her hands to cover her face, trying to make the sun less harsh, but it was no use. Wendy, who was a light sleeper, was awakened by her action. She rubbed her eyes and stretched out her hands comfortably, "I actually fell asleep here. Does it hurt when Shen Ning presses on your shoulders?"

"It doesn't hurt. I fell asleep too." Shen Ning opened his lips, his voice mixed in the rising and falling light, as if carried away by the light wind.

"We can go back tonight and go shopping..." Wendy smiled brightly. She turned to look at Shen Ning, her smile stiffened for a moment and then became more restrained. "Are you okay? Your face is so pale, without any color at all?"

"It's okay." Shen Ning didn't understand what happened to her. The pain made her lose her perception. The girl sniffed and said in a muffled tone, "Maybe I caught a cold from being exposed to the wind too much. Sister, please get me some cold medicine. I'll go back to the ward and sleep for a while."

Wendy stared at her face, and as strange emotions rose in her heart, the scene of so many people assuring her appeared in her mind. Yes, it's okay, everyone assured me that Shen Ning would be fine.

She turned her head away for a long time, then quickly straightened up, "It's all my fault for asking you to stay with me in the sun. The winter wind is still too cold. Can you go back alone? I'll get you some medicine right away."

"I can do it." Shen Ning stood up slowly. At that moment, her body suddenly shook, and then she stood straight. Shen Ning was frightened by her own state. If she lost her balance and fell to the ground, her sister would notice the problem.

She turned to Wendy and smiled helplessly, "I've been sitting for too long, my legs are a little numb. Go ahead, sister. I'll wait for you in the ward."

"Okay..." Wendy looked at her with doubts in her eyes, watching her sister leave. Although she walked a little slowly, she couldn't find any problems. She suppressed her doubts again, and now she was going to get some cold medicine.

In the empty ward corridor, Shen Ning walked forward with a dull expression, her steps were stiff as if she was struggling to move, she could not feel the weight nor hear the sound. With her blurred vision, she could barely tell which ward she was in, and she walked slowly, pressing the door handle several times before she could barely push it open.

The girl fell headfirst onto the bed, her black pupils gradually losing focus and disintegrating. She was very sleepy now and wanted to take a nap right away. Could it be that she really had a cold?

Light shone into the spotless room through the gaps in the curtains. The blood vessels under the girl's pale cheeks flickered with purple light, and then scale-like marks appeared on her neck. They seemed to have no obstacles and grew and spread wantonly.

Wendy was flying around the town, and suddenly she stopped, her expression blank. No, the cold medicine was in the hospital, on the lower floor, so why was she flying around the town?

"How stupid! Worrying too much can lead to mistakes." Wendy patted her forehead, turned around and flew towards the hospital.

The town had become deserted as most people had evacuated, giving people a dead silence. Wendy subconsciously hunched her shoulders. At the next corner, she met Kiana and Mei, who rarely appeared. The two girls were walking here and patrolling to guard against the enemy.

Kiana stopped talking and waved at Wendy from a distance. Seeing that she was alone, she couldn't help but show a puzzled expression, "Wendy, what are you doing alone? Do you need help?"

Because of Shen Yunie, Wendy had a good impression of the two. She smiled and said politely, "I'm looking for cold medicine. Shen Ning is sick and doesn't need any help. Thank you."

Kiana and Mei's original mission was to watch Wendy. A few hours ago, they watched her and Shen Ning's actions from afar. They were just a pair of good sisters taking a walk and chatting. When the two of them sat on a bench to rest, Kiana, who was very bored, took Mei to patrol the town.

Patrolling was also boring, they saw no one and no shops were open.

Kiana stepped forward and hugged Wendy's arm, saying with a smile: "Let us go with you. Patrolling here is so boring. We might as well chat. Anyway, there's no chance of anything..." danger happening.

boom--

The violent vibration from the ground made the girl stop talking abruptly. Gray smoke rose from the edge of the town in the distance. The light was blocked and the town became dark. That was the situation where the houses collapsed. The impact of the air wave blew the girls' hair up from afar. Kiana's face turned ugly in an instant. She and Mei looked at each other and understood what happened.

There really was an Honkai beast attack. Such a terrifying scene obviously could not be caused by a simple Honkai beast attack.

"Honkaimon, let's go there quickly, we are in big trouble now!" Kiana pulled Mei's hand and immediately rushed towards the place where the smoke was rising.

Wendy was still in a daze, and the moment she realized that the town was under attack, her identity as a Valkyrie made her subconsciously want to go to support. However, her current identity was too special, and Shen Ning was waiting for her. She hesitated in her heart and subconsciously shouted to the two of them.

"please wait a while!"

Kiana slowed down her pace, she turned to look at Wendy, and immediately understood her thoughts. She quickly explained: "Wendy, you don't have to go. We can deal with the Honkai beast, you go back to accompany Shen Ning, the attack is ahead, the hospital should be safe."

Wendy was stunned for a moment, then she drove the flying device to the two of them, her expression becoming firm, "No, I'll go with you. I'm a Valkyrie with combat capabilities, I can't just hide behind and be protected by others. As for Shen Ning... she'll be fine, she's just sleepy and she'll be fine after a good sleep."

The earthquake-like tremors continued to come, leaving Kiana with almost no room for thought. She couldn't stay here for long. Even though there were Valkyries fighting ahead, she would feel uneasy if she didn't appear on the battlefield.

"Okay, let's go there quickly!"

63.The wind is rising

64. I'll bring them back

Today is destined to be a sleepless night for the entire island nation of New Zealand.

A sudden hurricane enveloped the entire continent, and the weather station used to detect wind speed was blown down into ruins. The wind speed had exceeded the strongest level 17, and this wind was enough to cause crustal movement in the entire continent. After being shaken, it would lose its connection with the ground and sink into the vast ocean.

The riot happened suddenly, and before anyone could react, the authorities issued a statement. First, they released a news report that everything was under control, and then arranged for everyone to take refuge in the nearest air-raid shelters. These air-raid shelters had been built for decades, so they would not have any problems even if a nuclear bomb was dropped.

People's hearts were quickly stabilized, and everyone believed that the disaster would end soon, but officials and people with insights in this area knew that this was of no avail.

Are they afraid of a nuclear bomb falling on their heads? Not at all, it's the wind that's the source of the disaster. The whole country is wrapped in a hurricane, planes and cruise ships can't leave, and people from the outside can't get in. The wind blows down, the ground sinks into the sea, and no matter how safe the air-raid shelter is, it can only raise fish.

Officials sat in the brightly lit office in a state of panic. They called the Skyman for help. But there was no solution to the current situation. It was a hurricane that even the mothership could not enter. They could only pin their hopes on the Oceania branch. In the worst case, they had to prepare for the Herrscher to be killed with a Honkai fission bomb.

No sleep tonight.

The loud noise from the propeller made everyone feel uneasy. The helicopter was shaking and was almost blown over by the wind on the way, but fortunately they still returned to the base.

Looking at the base from a distance, Emilia couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, her heart aching, the town she spent so much effort and money to build was destroyed. She bit her tongue, forced herself to calm down, and controlled the helicopter to find an open space to land.

Everywhere the eyes looked, there were ruins. The peaceful atmosphere of the town was completely gone, and deathly silence enveloped the place. The huge Son of the Night at the front was lying on the ground, with its left arm broken into pieces and its core missing. The surviving Valkyries kept wandering among the ruins to rescue people, and everyone had a dull and numb expression, like the walking dead.

The light from the helicopter illuminated their faces, and a glimmer of expectation barely appeared in their eyes.

Shen Yunie jumped directly from the helicopter. After landing on the ground, he slowly looked around. His temples were throbbing and he felt a suppressed emotion in his heart that he couldn't let out.

The price of this lie came so quickly and so severely that they didn't even have a chance to think about the next lie before it was over.

"Help save people first, and think about the rest later." Leah's reminder made him get rid of all the messy thoughts in his head. Leah looked at the dead silence and darkness around her and frowned, "I can't see Shen Ning, Kiana and Meiyi are not here."

"Yeah." Shen Yunie blinked, and vines sprouted out of the ground all around his feet, pushing aside the ruins and pulling those things that were not completely destroyed to the open space.

After landing, Bronya and Fu Hua started to help rescue people. Fortunately, no one was killed or injured.

Before the strong wind blew, everyone left the room to resist the attack of the Honkai beast. Now people gathered in the open space with a lit bonfire, standing silently, and several logistics personnel were distributing food and supplies.

The electrical appliances here were basically destroyed, and the helpless people had no intention of returning to the city. They were all waiting for someone to give orders.

Shen Yunie was also standing in the crowd, the orange light shone on his cheeks, his eyes fell into darkness and were unclear. He ate bread and drank water in silence. Bronya was nowhere to be found, and Fu Hua stood beside him without eating anything, seeming a little absent-minded.

Jizi and Emilia turned back to the crowd with ugly expressions. They became the focus of attention and were allowed to leave the road to the center. Emilia sighed deeply and forced a smile on her face, "Everyone... it's okay. The Oceania branch has been established for a hundred years and has encountered many problems. They are just Herrschers. Next, I will select a few Valkyries with high combat effectiveness to form a special forces team.

The rest of you can go back to the city for now and wait for our good news."

Everyone nodded silently. No matter how strong their desire for revenge was, it was useless in front of the Herrscher. The Herrscher raised his hand, and most of the people present would die.

Listening to the selection of people, Shen Yunie noticed that his clothes were pulled from behind. He turned around and saw Ji Zi, with a helpless expression, raised her hand and pointed to the open space behind him.

"From the perspective of this wind and fluctuation, she has probably become a Herrscher. The worse situation is that there is no way for the outside world to provide support, and even high-level combat power cannot come... The principal asked me to make protecting your safety the primary goal.

As for the headquarters, two S-class warriors with the highest combat power are conducting experiments and cannot come over, which means they cannot provide support. They want us to be prepared to lure the Herrscher away and kill her with a Houkai fission bomb. "Jizi rubbed her temples and said seriously, "I prefer the latter, which is the safest way."

Shen Yunie lowered his eyes, his voice sounded hoarse, he said: "Kiana and Mei are not here, I asked other people, they were taken away by Wendy. If we use fission bombs to attack, we have to rescue them first."

The crowd suddenly burst into a noisy sound, and everyone could feel the shaking and violent collapse of the ground. The source came from the corpse of the Son of Night in the distance. The dead emperor was covered with dazzling blue and purple light, which intertwined and enveloped it.

Unexpectedly, with the blessing of the Herrscher's Honkai Energy, the Child of the Night, who had not devoured his brothers, could also evolve. The terrifying emperor was born before his eyes, with two cores in his huge arms, and purple and blue colors interlaced on his body, the emperor-level Honkai beast 'Awashi'.

Except for Ganesha and Pavanti, who have races, the rest of the emperor Honkai beasts are extremely terrifying, and there is very little information in the archives. If Emilia had not returned, this emperor would probably have killed all the rest.

Emilia had just picked out the special forces and was interrupted before she could tell them her plan. The firelight made her face red, and her eyes were also red. The discs on the back of the armor were all erected, and she rushed towards Awashi.

Jizi also entered combat mode in an instant. The bracelet turned into an Aurora Ship Slashing Sword and was carried on her shoulder. She stared at the emperor and said, "Kiana and Mei, I will bring them back. Yunie, you three should go back to the city."

Shen Yunie said calmly: "I'll go rescue Kiana and the others."

Jizi looked back at him in astonishment. Seeing the boy's calm expression, she took a deep breath and said seriously, "You are not allowed to participate in what is going to happen next. Even I can't confirm a safe place. I don't want anything to happen to you. The Herrscher is always an unimaginable creature."

"But we promised Emilia that if we couldn't control Wendy's emotions, we would kill her ourselves. Now it's our mistake that caused the Herrscher to appear." Shen Yunie blinked, still calm. He took Ji Zi's free hand and squeezed it, "I'll go bring Kiana and the others back. As for the Herrscher, I won't confront her head-on. If necessary, you can lead her to an open area and kill her with a fission bomb."

Fu Hua, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up and said softly, "I'll go with you."

The boy's behavior softened Himeko's expression. After hearing these words, she knew that she couldn't convince the two of them. She would have to fight with Awashi next and she would have no time to take care of the two of them. Even if she didn't agree, the other party might go secretly.

In the distance, Emilia and Awashi were already fighting. The emperor swung his huge hand and threw her several meters away. The experienced Valkyrie quickly came to her senses in the pain, controlled her body to float in the air, and the sharp blades behind her all stabbed towards the emperor's eyes.

Awashi waved his huge arms and easily deflected all the sharp blades.

"Don't get entangled with the Herrscher! Take Kiana and the others and leave quickly. I want to take you to the city for a walk later." Himeko couldn't just sit there and watch. She said the last sentence to the two of them solemnly and ran towards Awashi, "Come back to me soon!"

……

The strong wind almost lifted up the grass, and the moonlight was obscured by the thick dark clouds. Without the light, the land fell into a long darkness. In the wilderness stood a huge abandoned castle. It was originally the residence of a duke, but because of the high cost of annual repairs, his descendants eventually abandoned it.

The tin ceiling was lit up by the sudden fire, swaying in the wind, the dark shadows around it were looming, and the old and weathered glass windows were whistling in the wind, as if someone was wailing.

On the weed-covered steps, a girl with wings spread out flew slowly. She came to the stone throne at the top, cleared away the remaining dust with the wind, and sat on it.

This seemed to be the kingdom castle prepared for her.

Her eyes exuded a rich green light that was breathtaking. The corners of her lips were raised very high. She had a pretty face and looked good when she smiled, but at this moment, the corners were raised too high, to the point that it looked crazy.

The girl admired the traces of the castle, and looked around as if she was thinking about how to transform it. Her eyes finally fell on the two people at the bottom of the stairs. She did not impose any restrictions on them, because they could not escape, nor could they defeat her, and could only be treated as fish for her to slaughter.

But she didn't want to kill them so quickly, and said with a crazy smile: "If you die now, it would be too easy. Let's play a game. If you win, you can leave here~ The name of this game is - betrayer, or sacrifice.

The ending is that one of you two can leave here alive, provided that you kill the other person with your own hands~ It's fine if you lose a friend like me~"

Kiana glared at her and said in a nasty tone: "What kind of game is this? I don't want to play it!"

65. Lei Lu and Wendy

Kiana and Meiyi had no idea about Shen Ning's affairs. Now that it was happening before their eyes, they realized Shen Yunie's good intentions. But he still failed, and his revenge was fierce.

No one blamed him for not preparing Wendy mentally in advance. It was too late or she knew that Shen Ning would die. It was possible that she would end up in the same situation as now.

Mei looked at the Herrscher with an apologetic look. Wendy gave her a different feeling from those monsters who only knew how to destroy and kill. She still had reason and it seemed that there was still a possibility of persuasion.

She tried to persuade him, "Wendy, we are sorry about Shen Ning's situation...but you should know that she definitely didn't want you to become like this. You should understand why she kept it from you."

Wendy is indeed different from the Herrscher of Thunder in Mei's body. The Herrscher of Thunder's soul is a product fabricated by the Honkai consciousness. It has no memory of being a human being. The only thing that exists in its mind is destruction and killing.

After experiencing unspeakable despair, Wendy has voluntarily given up absolute control over her soul, allowing it to become entangled with the Honkai consciousness, eventually evolving into the conscious and crazy soul it is today.

Honkai became Wendy's god, constantly influencing and directing her actions. She no longer had such a strong desire for destruction, but she also did not have a fragile shell-breaking period. After birth, she became a true Herrscher.

[They are all lying to you. No one except Shen Ning treated you as a real human being. She is dead now. The culprit is this group of people in front of you! ]

Wendy ignored Mei's words, with no other emotions on her face except a crazy smile. She said with a smile: "No, no, Kiana, I have been playing games with you for so long, so what if you play a game with me?

You don’t have the right to refuse, so don’t refuse me.”

The tone was pitiful, and the voice gradually faded away and was drowned out by the whistling wind. The girl's torn skirt swayed in the wind. She lowered her eyes and looked at the green wings protecting her body, and said to herself: "You really don't want to play?"

The wind carrying Honkai energy fell, and the huge pressure instantly made Mei's face pale. The air around her was taken away, and the feeling of suffocation occupied every inch of her mind.

She couldn't move, there was no air, and even the words she spoke couldn't be heard. She was originally standing in one place, but after being blown down by the wind, she could only curl up.

"Mei?" Noticing her friend's situation, Kiana opened her eyes wide and rushed towards her immediately, but an invisible wind wall blocked her way. No matter how hard she smashed, she couldn't break it. "Wendy, you are really crazy. We have never treated you as a monster... No matter what, we did it for your own good, and in return you do this?!"

Wendy felt joy from the bottom of her heart at the painful look, but it was quickly extinguished by Kiana's words. She smiled with some disdain, "Yes, because you lied to me."

The air that was taken away has not been restored for a long time. Mei has curled up into a ball, and her body can't help but twitch as she loses oxygen.

Wendy seemed to have lost interest, looking down and carelessly adjusting the hem of her skirt. Meiyi at the bottom of the stairs had been suffocating for a long time and was gradually losing consciousness. If she continued to suffocate, she would die.

"Don't hurt Mei!" Kiana was shocked by the girl's painful look and her eyes turned red.

She turned abruptly to face the Herrscher on the throne, her bracelet transformed into the Moon Goddess's Guardian and she pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The blue energy bullet transformed by Honkai energy was in front of Wendy in an instant. The girl smiled and did not make any defensive moves. Her eyes flashed with a breathtaking light. The next moment, the bullet seemed to be affected by an unknown factor and deviated from the target and fell on the wall.

Kiana's eyes widened in surprise. She gritted her teeth and continued to pull the trigger.

bang bang bang-

Large numbers of energy bullets formed a dense formation and shot towards Wendy. The girl was still busy adjusting her clothes and skirt. All the bullets deviated to the other side when they were about to hit her. It seemed that there was a power in her body that could divert the trajectory.

The bullets made holes in the wall. Wendy couldn't help but exclaimed, "I would have died if the bullets had hit me. It would be troublesome to replace and repair the castle. Kiana, is this how you treat your friends?"

The Moonlight Guardian's high-efficiency operation has already lit up a red light, and the scorching temperature has turned her hands and wrists red. Kiana's eyes are red, and she is still pulling the trigger, but there is no more Honkai energy to fire. Now she has completely lost all Honkai energy and strength.

"You can't touch me, how about we change the way we play? If you can hurt me, I'll let her go." Wendy blinked at her slowly, as if she was looking at a toy that interested her.

Her eyes moved to Mei with difficulty. Kiana threw away the gun that was sticking to her palm, and kneeled in front of her without paying attention to the pain of the torn skin on her hand. She lowered her head in frustration and said in a tearful voice, "Please let Mei go. I will play with you no matter what you want to play, even if it means death. As long as you can let Mei go, she is innocent."

The lack of oxygen has lasted for more than ten minutes. After the Honkai energy transformed her body, this was already Mei's limit. Due to the lack of oxygen, all her perceptions became blurred. She vaguely heard the sound of gunfire, and the scene of the girl kneeling on the ground made her heart stop.

She opened her dry and cracked lips and managed to utter a weak voice, "Kiana, don't kneel..."
