Collapse: Raising a Wife Since Childhood

"I will not admit defeat. Shencheng Medical's extreme plan must be stopped." Kiana's face completely lost its color. She kept panting, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead. "Honkai has already taken the lives of many people. I will not let you take the lives of the rest of the people."

What's even more terrifying than kidnapping girls as experimental subjects is that Shencheng Pharmaceutical has a crazy plan similar to the one that Cocolia launched in Changkong City.

"You yourself said that the collapse took away the lives of most people. You yourself are the collapse, so what qualifications do you have to criticize us? Have you ever heard the cries of those who lost their parents? Have you ever heard the cries of babies who survived the battlefield?

You have no right to judge us!"

The Seven Thunders of Purification fired the most powerful bullets, and all the crow feathers gathered in an instant, and Kiana was surrounded like a tide. The light completely occupied her eyes, and the girl raised the bat as fast as she could and swung it violently in an attempt to deflect the attacks, but the next moment, the bat was cut into pieces.

The girl was stunned and threw the metal block in her hand at Lei Ting.

boom--

Raven saw blood splattering in front of his eyes. Kiana's blue eyes dimmed, and then her body was blown away and disappeared into a pile of broken tables and chairs. There was a lot of her blood on the ground.

"Are you done yet? New intruders detected entering the industrial zone, raven back!"

Raven slowly moved the gun away and locked her eyes on the girl. Even though she looked like she was dead, she couldn't be sure if she was dead. Her intuition told her that the Herrscher would not die so easily.

Faced with the jackal's urging, she was hesitating whether to refuse and go up to shoot again.

"Hurry! Two invaders have destroyed a lot of our mechanical equipment, and they are invading underground!"

"I know." Raven responded coldly. She pulled out a pistol from the holster on her leg and fired a few shots at the glass cabin in the middle. A special solution flowed out of it, and as the water level dropped, the things inside gradually emerged.

It was a weaver whose body had undergone extensive modifications. The spider's body below had four blood-red claws. It was stored in the deepest part and was the secret weapon here.

After determining that the seriously injured Kiana was unable to deal with the ultimate weapon, Raven reluctantly turned around and left with the gun. The elevator regained its kinetic energy and moved her upwards.

After a long silence, the piled up rubble was pushed aside bit by bit, and the wounded hands struggled to push away the objects pressing on her body. Kiana hid in the rubble not only to recover her physical strength, but also to attract Raven, who used the gun-shaped God Key, to fight with her at close range.

But she waited for a while, and all she noticed was that the other person had left.

Kiana was relieved to have survived the catastrophe, but now was not the time to completely relax. She still had to stop Shencheng Medicine's crazy plan. After pushing all the objects away, the girl raised her head from the ruins. The sudden red light made her dazed for a moment. After she came to her senses, she was shocked to find that she was very close to the Weaver, and the claws stained with blood shone down.

……

Shen Yunie and Hua were sneaking into the industrial area. He planned to go around the mechas with the girl, but he didn't expect that the number of mechas suddenly increased, and they were inevitably discovered.

In the end, the infiltration turned into a forced break-in. He wanted Hua Shao to use some power related to Honkai, and it turned into the girl showing unparalleled power to protect herself.

The power of the Herrscher is only the tip of the iceberg, and Shencheng Medicine cannot resist it.

In the distance, a large number of mechas gathered, and dense red dots fell on Shen Yunie's body. His current strength was not enough to deal with it. So Hua blocked in front of him, and the dark red flame gathered in his hand into a long sword state. His white face, eyebrows wrinkled together, and the long sword was swung out neither fast nor slow, creating circles of ripples.

Before the mecha attacked, ripples touched all the mechas, the red dots dissipated from Shen Yunie's body, and the mechas were slowly divided into two.

All the weapons were solved by just a face-to-face encounter. Shen Yunie looked at Hua with a complicated look. When did she possess such a strong power? Has she been hiding it from him?

He was a little worried that the girl's strength would not be used in the journey, and whether he had not given her enough education in the past two years. He had to make money and exercise on weekdays, and send Hua to school. Although he would ask about her situation at school every day, he would also accompany her to all the places she wanted to go during her holidays.

Shen Yunie still feels that it is not enough.

"Leaving?" Hua turned around and looked at him puzzledly, "What are you thinking about?"

"No..." Shen Yunie's worries mostly disappeared, he smiled at the girl, "How can there be such a strong power."

Hua pursed his lips and evaded the question: "Yes, it already existed."

She was not sure, but Shen Yunie knew that Hua's overall strength was already stronger than Fu Hua's.

"Don't worry, I can protect you!"

"Okay, you protect me."

Shen Yunie followed behind Hua, and the two continued to move deeper into the industrial zone. During this time, enemies kept appearing everywhere. The moment the gun was pointed at the two, they were directly swept away by Hua.

The girl glanced at the mechas that she had destroyed, and thought that it would no longer work to pretend to be weak in front of Shen Yunie. She still liked the time when Shen Yunie held her hand and brought her snacks when she went to and from school.

But she was also proud that now she was the only one who could protect Shen Yunie.

Hua glanced at Shen Yunie from the corner of his eye and found that he was pinching his chin and thinking, "Are you worried about danger?"

"No, I was wondering if those mechas have driver's seats." Shen Yunie came back to her senses and curved her eyes towards her, "If so, go grab one and you won't need my protection."

Several unnamed mechas approached. From their appearance, they looked like Titan mechas, and their flat heads did not look like they had a driver's seat.

Hua blinked, and the sword in his hand sent out a wave of air to slash at the mechas. The parts above the heads of several mechas were instantly separated, revealing the bodies with crisscrossed wires inside, and then gradually collapsed and destroyed, "There is no driving seat."

The girl said quietly, and raised the corners of her mouth where he couldn't see, "So you should be protected by me."

As they approached the underground passage, Shen Yunie opened his eyes wider. He could sense the reaction of Honkai energy nearby. The green plant basin occasionally flashed with light. It was understandable that they broke in as if they were in an empty space. Even if Shencheng Medical's reaction was slow, they should have sent out stronger people.

Hua slowed down his pace in front of him, and the two continued to move forward. After walking into a certain place, the girl's breathing stagnated, as if she had stepped into a trap carefully designed by a hunter, and all the destructive energy rose and boiled in an instant.

"Be careful." Hua was not worried about hurting herself. She turned around and grabbed Shen Yunie's hand. She used a little force to pull the two closer while reaching out to press the other's shoulder.

Shen Yunie was bent over by the pressure. He tried to control himself from falling forward, but the girl pressed him even harder. After his hair was flattened, it seemed to touch a soft part somewhere, and he was pressed by Hua's hand and couldn't move.

Realizing that her chest was also flattened, Hua's body suddenly stiffened and her earlobes turned slightly red. She actually didn't intend to use so much strength, she just subconsciously wanted to protect Shen Yunie's safety.

Countless pitch-black crow feathers flew in from all directions. After falling into the trap, the crow feathers formed a large net that made it impossible to escape. It was facing an extremely powerful girl.

Hua looked at the crow feathers calmly, and swung his sword to sweep them all away. At the same time, his sight moved to a corner, and he swung his sword again, and the sword energy flew out, "Come out!"

The air wave fell, and the woman's figure drew an arc in the night sky and fell in the distance, aiming the Seven Thunders of Purification in her hand at the two people. Raven did not shoot immediately. The person in front of him was much stronger than Kiana. She easily broke through all the defenses of Shencheng Medicine and ignored any traps. She was close to the strength of a Herrscher and an S-level Valkyrie.

Raven said coldly: "I don't remember having two such guests."

Shen Yunie straightened up. He didn't want to get entangled with the other party, so he said directly: "I came to find Qiana. She should be underground."

He turned to look at Hua, and squeezed their hand, which had not yet been loosened.

"Hua, hold her back, I'll go find Kiana."

Hua Nana said: "Ah, then you go."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Raven clearly realized that the young man did not take her seriously, so she remained silent. Her eyes wandered between the two of them. She was sure that she could not beat the girl. A professional mercenary had to analyze the strength of both sides so as not to take risks and accept orders.

If she found that she was an opponent she couldn't beat, she could just leave. But now she was already in the base camp and couldn't leave, so she could only try to pester the girl, and Raven didn't tell them about the situation underground, as that would only anger the two of them.

Shen Yunie's gaze never fell on Raven again, and she passed by her calmly and quickly.

Then Hua raised the sword in his hand and said, "I can give you a chance to escape. Don't blame me if you don't cherish it."

The stairs leading to the underground were long and dark, and the lights above were affected, flickering. Shen Yunie walked down, and soon he stopped again. In his sight, under the flashing light and shadow, he saw an embarrassed figure running upwards.

She seemed very tired, staggering up, stopping to catch her breath every few steps. The third-generation Valkyrie armor on her body was severely broken, revealing her shoulders covered with blood scabs.

Her waist-length silver hair was messy and swayed from side to side as she moved forward.

A flash of light and shadow suddenly passed by, stretching Shen Yunie's figure to just below the girl's feet. She was stunned for a few seconds and slowly raised her head.

The bloodless cheeks, the pure eyes under the feathery eyelashes are now dim, mixed with many complicated emotions. Kiana never thought that she would meet Shen Yunie at this time. When she met those dark and deep eyes, she was stunned again.

"Kiana, long time no see?"

113. Guilt and Escape

Kiana stared at the young man standing on the stairs in amazement. Two years had passed, so Shen Yunie should be eighteen years old.

Shen Yunie's hair had grown longer. The light flickered, leaving a clear outline on his face. His eyes were drooping, and his thick and long eyelashes made his black eyes look even deeper, with a tiny light. He pursed his lips lightly, showing no emotion.

The person Kiana feared the most was him. Over a long period of time, the girl gradually digested everything that had happened. She vaguely understood that Shen Yunie was an extremely complicated person. In his body existed the soul of her mother, Cecilia.

She couldn't be sure whether they had recognized her a long time ago, but she knew that their kindness to her was genuine. At the same time, she was also the one who hurt Shen Yunie the most.

Kiana didn't know whether her mother's soul still existed in Shen Yunie's body. She always felt guilty and was afraid to meet him.

The sudden reunion interrupted all the girl's thoughts and made her forget even the pain in her body for a moment.

Shen Yunie didn't know that Kiana would have so many thoughts. He was not too angry. It was the mother's duty to save her child. He was powerless because he was too weak. Instead, he blamed himself for being too weak. Everything seemed to be destined, and it was destroyed when he could not control it.

Although there was a period of time two years ago when he had a serious emotional problem and pushed all the responsibilities away, but as time passed, he let it go, and now he just wanted to see Kiana and Xilin as soon as possible.

Seeing that she was still in a daze, with many shocking scars on her body, Shen Yunie frowned and began to walk down, "Stupefied? Kiana, come here and let me see your injuries."

The figure covered her entire field of vision, and Kiana snapped back to her senses, "Ah!"

The girl's face was quickly filled with fear, and she didn't hear Shen Yunie's words at all. She was not mentally prepared yet, and the only thing she could think of now was to run.

"No, don't come over..."

Kiana didn't care about the pain in her body. She ran towards Shen Yunie's diagonal direction. Her speed was extremely fast and she could distance herself from him. She ran away dozens of meters away. Her speed was getting faster and faster. She didn't dare to stop and ignored everything around her. She ran wherever there was a road.

"Is she afraid of me?" Shen Yunie came back to his senses, his expression stiff and he didn't turn around.

Leah looked back and saw that the girl had already disappeared. She couldn't help but worry, "She's going to run away."

Shen Yunie turned around and ran towards the place where Kiana disappeared. No matter how afraid the other party was of him, he had to find Kiana now.

That was her sister whom she had not seen for a long time. Shen Yunie also felt shocked when she saw the scars on her body.

Raven was entangled by Hua and was caught in a tough fight. She found herself being manipulated by the other party. Neither the energy of the crow feathers nor the seven thunders of purification could cause any real harm to the girl. She could just swing the strange sword to block all her attacks.

"Where did this monster come from!" Raven's eyes were on the sniper rifle, and the muzzle of the gun had already been pointed at the girl, but she was unwilling to shoot.

The attack could not cause any harm to her, but instead she was becoming increasingly exhausted by the consumption of the Seven Thunders of Purification.

Hua had already taken a defensive stance, and she didn't notice the attack for a long time. She raised her head and asked in confusion: "Hey, why don't you attack?"

Raven was so angry about this that he didn't pull the trigger, "You..."

Not far away, a figure ran past his eyes. Raven was stunned for a moment and was shocked to find that it was Kiana who was knocked unconscious by him, but was still awake and running wildly on the road.

Raven felt an inexplicable rage rising in her heart. She aimed the Seven Thunders of Purification at Kiana and pulled the trigger. Who could escape from her sight?

boom--

The terrifying thunder roared, but Kiana, who was far away, did not notice it. Her mind was all on escaping from Shen Yunie's sight.

When the lightning was about to hit Kiana's body, it was suddenly bounced off by the sword. Hua Xiang stood in front of her from a distance and knocked the bullet away.

The girl glared at the raven in dissatisfaction, "Why are you still hitting others? Am I not pestering you enough? Focus on me!"

The collapse energy was released, and a terrifying wave of sword energy came bombarding. Raven immediately raised the Seven Thunders of Purification to resist. Although the attack hit the Key of God and failed to penetrate, the terrible impact still made her retreat several meters, and her hands were numb from the shock.

Raven gritted her teeth and looked fiercely at the Herrscher who was entangled with her. She obviously had no time to care about Kiana who was escaping, and the next sword energy continued to bombard her.

"You want to play, right? I'll accompany you!"

Then another figure passed by, it was Shen Yunie who had passed by him not long ago. Raven still subconsciously launched an attack, but was still resisted by Hua.

The girl turned her back to the retreating Shen Yunie and shouted in a loud voice, "Shen Yunie, are you going to catch her?"

"I want to bring her back." Shen Yunie responded to her while taking a breath, "That's my sister."

"Sister..." Hua repeated in a daze, and memories of Kiana began to emerge in his memory. Shen Yunie treated her very well, just like he treated himself.

The girl wanted more than that, she also wanted Shen Yunie to treat her better, at least to go beyond the relationship between siblings. Hua curled his lips, feeling a little indignant, after all, he was still fighting here, but Shen Yunie was chasing after Kiana indifferently.

Hua raised his sword and pointed it at Raven, "Can you use a little more force, woman holding the Key of God? Can you hurt me?"

"..." Raven

Kiana ran as fast as she could, leaving everything behind. She just wanted to escape from Shen Yunie's sight as soon as possible. She was not ready yet, unwilling to face the grown-up boy, and did not have the courage to ask him if his mother still existed.

When Xilin took over her body, Kiana could clearly feel that it was her mother who awakened her by exchanging her soul for theirs, and that everything she did had a price to pay.

Running out of the medical center in the city, Kiana turned and fled into the poor area, which was like a maze, with only the sound of the girl's chest rising and falling in the darkness. The pain of the scars on her body reappeared, beads of sweat slid down her forehead, and she gradually began to recall what she had to do.

To stop Shencheng Medicine's plan, the plan called "Stigmata" is to destroy the populous Sky City. The extremely high Honkai energy will change everyone's genetic tissue, forcing those who have never had Stigmata to awaken them, and those who cannot tolerate it will be transformed into dead soldiers or die in the Honkai.

How is this different from Cocolia's crazy plan to awaken the Herrscher of Thunder?

Kiana couldn't stand the thought of someone dying in front of her. After making sure there were no footsteps around, she slowly poked her head out from the corner. She was going to find the highest point in the city, where the bomb that could change everyone's genes was, and it was about to be launched.

The girl was about to take a step forward, but a sudden voice behind her made her stop again.

"Are you still planning to avoid me?"

Kiana turned her head stiffly. Shen Yunie was standing behind her at some point, breathing heavily and approaching her.

114. Don’t Run

Shen Yunie must catch Kiana. After letting her escape this time, it will be very difficult to meet her next time. Especially when the girl deliberately wants to avoid him.

Kiana looked at him in horror. The boy, who was a head taller than her, occupied her entire sight, bringing a great sense of oppression. She was frightened and stepped back repeatedly, with many complex emotions in her eyes, which combined into fear.

"You, don't come over..."

Shen Yunie didn't listen and continued to walk forward. In the dark environment, only a little light could be seen under her dark eyelashes, "Why are you running away?"

Kiana's face flushed red, and she couldn't speak. What she feared most was such a tone of accusation. All the mistakes she had made came to her mind. The girl lowered her head, stepped back step by step, and didn't dare to speak anymore.
