Collapse: Raising a Wife Since Childhood

The gray-gold shell wrapped around her original body and transformed it into a monster. It attacked the woman who was following it, and then the surveillance video began to distort, and both of them disappeared into thin air.

That appearance is not the Honkai beast but there are some similarities. According to the analysis, it is most likely the original appearance of the Tenth Herrscher.

Similar situations have occurred all over the world. Some people have realized that they have extraordinary powers and began to commit crimes secretly or take revenge on their former enemies. Some people did it unconsciously and hid themselves afterwards for fear of being punished.

In two hours, he walked through all the nearby streets.

Shen Yunie stopped at the junction of the slums. The other party would definitely continue to commit crimes, especially when the Tianqiong City police did not take any action for the time being. The Herrscher's clone would probably be caught tonight or tomorrow.

It's a pity that this can't kill the Tenth Herrscher at its root.

"Rita, we've only been shopping with you today, and we haven't confirmed any news nearby. It's a good opportunity for you and me to go check it out now."

"You've been too tense lately, you need to relax. Our mission is to find out where the Herrscher might appear, so shopping is also part of our mission."

"You mean the area near those restaurants and the entrance to this slum area?"

Shen Yunie turned his back to the entrance of the slums and was stunned for a moment. The most amazing thing for him today was probably the second encounter. Two figures were approaching this side. They were concentrating on chatting, and it took them a long time to notice that they were standing here.

The girl's body was tall and well-proportioned in the close-fitting sportswear, and her golden ponytail swayed in the wind like a cloud dyed golden by the sun. Youlan Dai'er was also stunned when she saw Shen Yunie.

After being stunned for a few seconds, she called out weakly, "Brother..."

Youlan Daier had mixed feelings. Her life hadn't changed much since the last time. She was still constantly carrying out missions and training. If there was any real change, it was probably that she became more focused and serious in carrying out her missions.

It was normal that I never thought about meeting my brother again. After all, the two of us were in different camps, and even if we put aside our hatred in front of the Herrscher, we would not share information.

"Yeah." Shen Yunie nodded to her.

Yulandel seems to be in good spirits, and she should have understood the trade-offs.

On the other side, Rita tugged at the collar of her sweater, her well-wrapped chest rising and falling calmly, her eyes looking away, obviously not prepared to say hello.

Shen Yunie figured out her previous doubts, and the people Su Mian was talking about were probably them.

The Herrscher's clone probably never imagined that she would attract so many people, and their fighting power was enough to deal with a real Herrscher.

Yulandel's lips moved for a while but she still couldn't think of what to say next. Given their current relationship, it was not appropriate to ask about each other's well-being. They were both here to carry out missions, and the missions were most likely the same.

Shen Yunie passed by the two of them and said softly, "Be careful."

"You too." Yulandel replied.

It was not until Shen Yunie disappeared in the crowd that Youlandel patted her forehead in sudden realization, "Oops, I should have asked him for information about the Herrscher. We are all here to track down the Tenth Herrscher."

Rita looked at the place where the back figure disappeared and said, "It doesn't matter. There will always be another time when we meet again."

Shen Yunie went against the flow in the crowd, deliberately slowing down his pace and walking leisurely towards the hotel. He didn't expect to meet them here by chance, and if he saw them, he would be able to get more information.

It took him an hour to get back to the hotel. He could see a figure standing in the shadows from a distance. Rita was worthy of being an S-class Valkyrie who specialized in assassination and intelligence gathering. She would dress differently in different places to blend in.

Now she is wearing a tight sweater, and her long legs under the black pleated skirt look as beautiful as flowers.

Rita was looking at him. She stepped forward in silver-gray high heels with crystal sequins, pursed her red lips and said, "Let's exchange information. After all, this is about the Herrscher. We suffered heavy losses here, so Miss Yulandel and I had no choice but to investigate the matter thoroughly."

Shen Yunie was not surprised. He was actually planning to exchange some information with them, but he wanted to make Youlandel's life better, so he didn't say much and just left.

Shen Yunie followed Rita to the nearby park, "So what happened to you?"

"Nearly thirty Valkyries disappeared from the Skyman headquarters, including two of the Immortals. All of them were caused by the Tenth Herrscher. There was no pattern, and no trace of them could be found. It was as if they had gone directly to another world."

"We have a similar situation in our base." Shen Yunie shrugged and said, "The Herrschers are constantly replenishing, and we don't even know if those who disappeared are alive or dead. According to the analysis of the monitoring equipment, the hiding place of the Tenth Herrscher may be in a certain space that only they can go to."

"So you plan to capture the Herrscher this time and take it to that world?" Rita was silent for a few seconds, then shook her head. "If you go, it's like committing suicide. You can't even defeat me with that little power. And we're not going to give the Herrscher away this time. There are people we want to bring back there too.

Why don't you beg me to bring him back for you?"

Shen Yunie looked at Rita's face and suddenly burst into laughter. He shook his head and said nothing, but his meaning was clear, that is, they should just fight with each other.

"How's Bianca doing?"

"Very good. Every mission is completed successfully. If Miss Yulandel can provide some constructive suggestions for the development of the Destiny, I think she will also be among the candidates for the position of Bishop of the Destiny."

Shen Yunie's smile slowly faded, "Any news about Otto?"

This time it was Rita's turn to smile without answering. The cold wind blew past, and she grasped the hem of her skirt and pressed it down, her eyes becoming seductive. "This is not within the scope of exchanging information."

……

Late at night in Skydome City, lights illuminate most of the city like daylight. At the border between the slums and normal areas, figures move between the tall buildings like owls. Once the target is locked, they will show their claws like prey.

In this operation, Shen Yunie and Yae Sakura were outside, while Leah used the detection device to determine the location where the Herrscher appeared.

It was already early morning, and the crowds on the street began to turn into people and various sales robots. Occasionally, a robot would rush to the feet of passers-by and sell them their products in a childish voice. This was a residential area, and there were fewer people walking around. Shen Yunie and Yaezakura shuttled between the houses looking for people who were alone.

"According to nearby surveillance, there are lone people in several locations." Leah's voice came through the headset.

At this time, Leah was sitting on the sofa in the hotel, holding a computer and constantly directing the two of them.

Afterwards, Shen Yunie and Yaezakura went to several points to check and analyze whether the person matched the image of the Herrscher in the records. Since the other party did it secretly, it means that she knew that she would be punished for what she did, but she still couldn't control her inner desire to make mistakes.

For several times in a row, neither of them was able to find a suitable target.

In the hotel room, Leah sipped warm milk, with dozens of surveillance images zoomed out on the screen. Her beautiful eyes moved back and forth between the images, and gradually she squinted her eyes and fixed her sight on one of the images.

Leah pushed the mouse and clicked on the surveillance camera. The picture began to enlarge in front of her eyes. It showed a young woman carrying a lot of bags and walking on an empty street. "Yune, there's someone you might want to go see. It's someone you know."

163. Hunting the Herrscher's Plan

Su Mian transferred the bag in his hand to his left hand, took out his right hand and wiped his face with a wet towel.

She spent the whole day wandering around, visiting all the places she could think of, and bought a lot of souvenirs for her parents and several good colleagues.

Suddenly coming to her senses, Su Mian's impression of the chance encounter this morning had faded. They were destined not to be from the same world, so why should she pursue them so hard?

But the nightmares kept coming back to her mind. Even if she took a nap at noon, she would still dream about that stage. The crowd was whispering in her ears, and some even asked her questions directly, telling her that as long as she awakened the power in her body, she could walk into the same world as Shen Yunie.

Su Mian just felt that she really needed to see a psychiatrist. She was an ordinary woman who couldn't be more ordinary, and she didn't believe that there was any magic in this world.

Shen Yunie stood in the shadow of the emergency staircase and looked down at the street. He said, "It's quite safe. Is there any other place besides this?"

"Not yet. After all, we can't be sure of each other's style." Leah said while looking at the surveillance screen, "If there is really nothing wrong, you can come back. We can talk about where to go on a date during the day."

"Can I come back later? You can choose the location." Yaezakura's voice sounded, with a hint of anticipation in her tone, "I plan to explore the area for a while longer."

"Ying, I saw a huge Ferris wheel. You can see the whole Skydome City from it. How about going there?"

"It will be all right."

“And there’s Robot Park!”

Listening to the conversation between the two, Shen Yunie left from the safety stairs. Little did she know that when everyone's attention was relaxed, a shadow-like existence quietly appeared behind Su Mian.

Wherever she went, the shadow followed her. There was no need to worry about being discovered, because the shadow came from Su Mian herself.

There were two other people who were searching in the same way. Rita and Yulandel also hid in the shadows and searched the streets. In the headphones, it was Alvette who was operating the surveillance and acting as the third eye.

In the moonlight, the figure's sleeves fluttered and her skirt swayed in the wind, inadvertently revealing an inch of fair skin.

She landed on the top of a building whose mirrored surface reflected light like glass, and as if by magic, a tray and a goblet of red wine appeared in her hands.

"Miss Youlandel, please relax. We have all the surveillance cameras nearby."

Yulandel turned around, looked at the tray for a few seconds, and said a little embarrassedly: "Thank you, Rita, but I don't like drinking very much."

"Then let's have juice." Rita's slender hand stroked the tray, and a highball glass of orange juice appeared next to the red wine.

Youlandel rubbed her brows, took the wine glass and clinked it lightly with Rita, "I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel like something is wrong."

Rita had a puzzled expression on her face, then she comforted him, "Those passersby have problems? With Alvette here, we can get there as quickly as possible even if there is a problem."

"That's not what I meant. The more I talk, the more confused I am..." Youlan Daier rubbed her brows again, obviously very upset. She calmed down and drank the juice silently, then said seriously, "I think there is something wrong with the bishop."

"But didn't you already know what the bishop was thinking?" Rita stood beside her. "Resurrecting Saint Kallen is more important than destroying Honkai. When you first knew about this, you didn't take any action. We are not serving Bishop Otto, but all of humanity."

"I understand this, but the bishop was away for too long this time." Yulandel looked at the rising and falling moonlight, "It's like he's announcing that he's preparing a bigger plan, and I think that plan is about to be completed."

"To be honest, I am not ready to become an enemy of the Bishop~"

"So Rita isn't going to stand by me this time?"

"Everyone has their own set of criteria for judging right and wrong. You have grown into an outstanding Valkyrie and you don't need to rely on me anymore." Rita said these words with a smile, her skirt swaying in the wind. "Just make your own choice. Maybe the choices are different, but they will definitely lead to the same destination."

The two of them had been together for too long, eight years, so no matter what kind of conversation they had, it wouldn't hurt their feelings. And Yulandel knew that one day she would become Rita's enemy and she couldn't do it, she would just choose to escape, and the other party was the same.

After chatting aimlessly for a while, the two men saw the last person of this investigation, Su Mian, who passed by with something in his hand.

After just a few seconds of watching, Rita turned away and said, "Let's go, that person doesn't look strange at all."

"No, the problem lies in her shadow." Yulandel shook her head, staring at the huge black shadow. "Hersher also has superpowers like us and is not limited to elemental manipulation. She should have superpowers related to shadows. The Herrsher is hiding in the shadows."

Rita's expression was solemn. She turned around and looked at Su Mian again. After a moment, she nodded and said, "I was negligent."

Under the starry moonlight, two figures fell rapidly from a tall building.

At the same time, Liya, who was sitting in the room, turned her attention from the Sky City Travel Guide to the surveillance. After analyzing silently for a few seconds, she suddenly said, "Yune, it seems you have to go back again. There is something wrong with the girl outside the hotel gate this morning." Su Mian was still a few blocks away from the hotel. She had planned to walk to exercise. However, when she walked here, she vaguely realized that her spirit was not very good. She thought about it and chose to take a faster route back to the hotel to rest. She walked forward a few steps and subconsciously looked back.

There was no one behind him, but the feeling of being stared at still lingered. Su Mian thought for a moment and felt that he was too careless, so he quickened his pace and continued to move forward.

Stepping into the dark area without street lights, Su Mian couldn't help but hunch her shoulders because of the winter cold. The sight was pitch black. Silently, a pair of hands reached out from the darkness under her feet. In fact, her feeling was not wrong. Someone was indeed staring at her, but not from behind but from under her feet.

One of the Thousand Herrschers, who could no longer control her inner desire for violence, chose to attack those who were alone. She had many abilities, so she only needed to prevent others from seeing her true appearance to avoid being punished. After using different abilities, even if someone discovered her, she would be treated as a different person.

Bones began to grow from the fingertips and turned into sharp black-gold bone claws. The woman's black-haired and black-eyed appearance became hideous in the shadows. She stuck out her tongue and licked the corners of her mouth that was grinning from ear to ear. Her entire body was covered with a shell of some unknown material. The desire to kill in her heart rose as the young woman occasionally hunched her shoulders.

"Yes, kill her. Kill a few more! Then you will be qualified to go to the palace~"

"It is these people who are blocking your way to the rich area. If it weren't for them, you wouldn't be fired. You wouldn't be staying in such a shabby place!"

The woman's vanity and desire rose with the sound, and she raised her claws towards Su Mian as if she was under a spell. She had killed many people before. She knew how to destroy the vocal organs as quickly as possible and make it impossible for people to die, so a sharp claw pointed directly at Su Mian's throat.

boom!

The claw hit the extremely hard metal object, sparks flew from the collision, and then the claw broke into pieces. Before the woman could react, a powerful hook punch hit her face hard, and she was knocked back, and the wall behind her shattered instantly as if it was made of tofu.

The houses nearby were all small warehouses. After the woman was forced in, there were several collision sounds before things quieted down.

Then a frightened scream was heard, and Su Mian suddenly realized that there was a tall man standing next to her. She was already in a tense state, and now she was so frightened that she threw everything in her hands at him.

Shen Yunie was hit in the face by the jade material. He felt a little pain, "Calm down..."

Then more things were thrown at her, including small accessories, a few pieces of clothing, and various souvenirs. Shen Yunie was stunned by the objects and subconsciously grabbed the other person's hand, "Calm down, Su Mian!"

Her eyes slowly adjusted to the darkness, and Su Mian could barely see the handsome face, but she was still so scared that she pulled her hand back and took a few steps back, "Shen, Shen Yunie... why are you following me?"

"I didn't follow you. She was the one who followed you." Shen Yunie sighed and pointed at the broken wall. "I came out because she was about to attack you."

Su Mian looked at the broken wall and felt a surge of fear. Sure enough, they were not from the same world. To deal with a stalker, he actually smashed him into the wall?

"Are you a police officer?"

Shen Yunie stepped forward to block Su Mian's sight. He said casually, "That's about it. Go back now. I will compensate you for the price of those things. It's dangerous here."

"Ah." Su Mian didn't want to leave. What happened was too inexplicable. She couldn't even see the criminal's appearance clearly.

She felt the chill of the cold winter wind. The young man in front of her began to walk into the warehouse, and before he completely entered, he turned back and glanced at her.

Su Mian shrank her neck. She saw a completely different Shen Yunie, which completely overturned the impression she had of him for two years. "Be careful."

The woman in the warehouse has climbed up again. All the previous injuries have actually caused cracks in the gray-gold shell on her face. The man in front of her is from the same world as her.

Another monster that could better satisfy her desire to fight.

Then the woman roared and pounced towards Shen Yunie. Her broken claws grew back and became longer and sharper.

The young man in front of her just ignored her, holding a gorgeous knight's spear in his hand that looked like a decoration.

If it were two years ago, Shen Yunie would probably have felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, but now he has faced several Herrschers and even killed them.

Facing these humans who were almost corroded by Honkai energy, he was no longer so nervous. However, the woman in front of him still regarded him as ordinary prey.

boom--

Heiyuan Baihua knocked the woman to the ground with a sweeping blow, and then punched her face, punching her in the face like raindrops, causing the cracks in the shell to grow bigger and bigger. The woman suddenly realized that the opponent in front of her was not someone she could handle at all.

After a brief face-to-face encounter, she was beaten to the point of vomiting blood. The young man's dark and deep eyes were unusually calm, as if killing her would be an extremely easy thing.

He wants to capture me alive!

The woman had this thought in her mind: she must not be caught, otherwise the sins she had committed would be enough to be sentenced to death. In boundless fear, the woman began to exert her abilities and her body merged back into the darkness.

Shen Yunie's fist smashed through the woman and hit the ground. The hard floor cracked instantly. She had completely hidden and teleported from the shadows to the nearest place.

Monster, the one who comes to catch me is a monster.

After a few days of wantonly venting her power, the woman completely realized that she was not the master of this world, and her identity had quietly changed from hunter to prey. Now she just wanted to escape quickly and then hide this power for a while.
