Collapse, I am actually in the villain camp

However, the numerous staff members lying on both sides of the passage and the doors that were mostly still open had revealed the conditions of many rooms here.

Most of the rooms here have probably been completely destroyed by the influence of the Eighth Herrscher.

Therefore, faced with this room that obviously could not contain the key factors, Li Wen did not enter it to explore, but continued to move deeper into the passage.

However, when they reached the end, they found that the research institute at the deepest part was also full of people lying on the ground.

After entering the room and taking a quick look around, Li Wen showed another coordinate to Kiana, "Teleport to this coordinate."

Since no living forces of the "Fire Moth" were found here, they had to change direction.

"Ah."

After taking a look at the specific coordinate information, Kiana used her power again.

After being teleported to the specific coordinates, Kiana discovered that they were at a T-junction.

Li Wen didn't hesitate at all and immediately rushed to the passage on the other side. Seeing this, Kiana hurriedly followed with Blake in her arms.

The two people and the cat began to explore again along this passage.

……

the other side.

Because Kiana used her power again, Dr. Mei also captured the new reaction of the Herrscher.

After confirming that this reaction came from the target of the previous exploration, Mei immediately sent a message to Alicia, asking her to change her target.

At the same time, she began to try again in the laboratory to call up the surveillance footage near the Herrscher's reaction location.

Fortunately, although the surveillance cameras here were also affected, the overall picture was still displayed.

So, she immediately retrieved the video footage of that period according to the time when the Herrscher's reaction was detected.

As the video played, she quickly captured the sudden appearance of the space wormhole.

"It's the power of 'space' indeed."

Mei continued to stare closely at what was in front of her. She knew that since the other party had used his power, he would definitely get out of it.

By then, she might be able to find out more about the situation.

However, looking at the two people emerging from the wormhole, even her calm self couldn't help but exclaim, "Two people?!"

"Mei, what happened?" Hearing Mei's exclamation, Alicia hurriedly asked Mei on the communication channel.

After quickly calming herself down, Mei quickly informed Alicia of the specific situation.

"So, in this battle, we have to face three 'weapons' at the same time?"

At this time, even with Alicia's optimism, she still felt a little pressure.

In this situation, it would be too difficult for "Fire Moth" to deal with three Herrschers at the same time.

"Maybe." Faced with the unfamiliar scene in front of her, Mei was unable to determine the specific situation.

But she understood that the most important thing at the moment was to eliminate the Eighth Herrscher first, thereby releasing the combat power of the "Fire Moth".

"Alicia, please stop them." Mei said to Alicia.

From her observation, the other party had begun to approach the direction of the Fifth Research Institute.

Once the plan is interrupted by the other party, the entire "Fire Moth", the entire world will be over!

"I will rush over there and stop them immediately." Alicia responded immediately.

Even so, she was still some distance away from her target, and catching up with the Herrscher, who possessed the power to manipulate "space," was still quite difficult.

Just as she was worried, a voice suddenly rang out in the communication channel, "I'm nearby, leave it to me."

"Kevin?!"

Mei and Alicia breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the familiar voice.

They didn't expect that Kevin, who had been missing for a long time, would appear at this time and solve their urgent problem.

Chapter 26 Kevin, Alicia vs. Li Wen

However, since Kevin was nearby, they could rest assured.

After all, Kevin had already established the strength of his military power through his record of eradicating Honkai and data testing.

With Kevin taking action, even if two Herrschers appeared at the same time, they would not cause any trouble.

Logically speaking, since Kevin has taken action, it would be better for Alicia to go back and protect Dr. Mei.

However, Dr. Mei took into consideration that the other party had only displayed one power of the Herrscher of the Void, and under the pressure of another unknown power, in order to prevent something like the Eighth Herrscher from happening, she still ordered Alicia to continue rushing towards the target location.

She planned to have Alicia and Kevin, the second and first members of the "Fire Moth", work together to quickly and completely eliminate the unstable factors.

After receiving Mei's notification, Alicia followed Mei's instructions without hesitation and headed towards the target location.

……

At the same time, Kevin, who had just left the deepest place and had not yet had time to rush to Mei's office, also quickly rushed towards the direction of the important road he needed to guard.

After all, if the other party did not use the power of the Ruler of the Void, that place would be the only way for the other party to go to the Fifth Research Institute.

If the other party used the power of the Herrscher of the Void to pass through there, he could also rely on that passage to rush towards the Fifth Research Institute.

Thinking of this, Kevin quickly arrived at the passage.

After arriving at the passage, Kevin did not hear any new instructions from Mei, so he realized that the Herrscher did not continue to use the power of the Herrscher of the Void.

Then, he just needs to continue guarding here.

Although it was possible to continue rushing to the Fifth Research Institute, he judged that since the other party did not actively use the power of the Herrscher to continue teleporting, it meant that the other party was not familiar with the structure and location of the underground and did not dare to use the power at will.

Moreover, fighting with the opponent at this position will not affect the normal operation of the "Consciousness Hub".

After all, he was quite aware of his own destructive power.

He was also confident that once he launched an attack, he would not give the opponent a chance to teleport.

He stood there holding the "Heavenly Fire Judgment", waiting for his target to arrive.

……

While hurrying on the road with Kiana, Li Wen continued to collect key information quickly. Soon, he was approaching the target passage.

Turn left in this passage and continue deeper, and you will reach another core area.

This information was deciphered by Blake from the Fire Moth's system based on the current situation.

However, in order to prevent himself from being attacked by memetic weapons again, Blake did not dare to crack it in depth. He could only operate it roughly and then handed the instrument to Li Wen, who clicked the "Confirm" button to check it.

Its concerns are normal, because even Li Wen was attacked a lot when he looked at this information.

Although he relied on his own strength to resist the opponent's invasion and was not hurt, the real pain in his mind was not so easy to bear.

But he had no other choice. After all, when it came to consciousness, he really couldn't compare with the Eighth Ruler who specialized in this area.

As he was about to approach the passage, Li Wen suddenly slowed down.

He saw the man standing in front of him - Kevin.

At this moment, accompanied by a burst of dense footsteps, a light figure like an elf landed in the passage behind them.

The two looked back and saw Alicia behind them, looking at them with a bow and arrow.

After observing the situation for a while, Li Wen narrowed his eyes and suddenly said to Kiana beside him: "I will hold them back, you continue exploring."

He has figured it out now. The Fire Moth is in critical situation at this moment. Even if the two of them and the cat act harmless, the Fire Moth will not attack them, but it will never let them walk around the base at will.

Once his movements were restricted, it meant that he would be unable to complete the trial.

In this situation where it was impossible to convince the other party with just a few words, he felt that he had no choice but to choose this violent way to break the deadlock.

Anyway, this is a trial world. After completing this trial or "resetting the world", they will still be strangers.

In this case, spending less time getting more information is the best option.

Therefore, he made the decision to hold the two of them back here so that Kiana could escape and continue exploring.

"Ah."

Although Kiana didn't understand why Li Wen chose to take action without saying a word, she believed in Li Wen's judgment.

So, she suddenly jumped up and leaped towards the passage behind Kevin.

Faced with Kiana's sudden outburst, Kevin, who was already very vigilant, took action immediately.

The tip of the greatsword pointed directly at Kiana's delicate body, and the sky-burning flames quickly extended from the core to the sword body, burning the entire space and distorting it.

However, before this terrifying flame could completely dissipate, it was instantly compressed by an extremely terrifying force.

At some point, Li Wen had already drawn his sword, and he arrived in front of Kiana in an instant, heading straight for Kevin. He relied on his "world power" to suppress the opponent's flames.

No matter how much Honkai energy was pumped into the core of the "Heavenly Fire Holy Judgement", the flames on the sword were still firmly suppressed on the blade, revealing a wilted appearance.

Seeing that his full-strength attack was easily suppressed by the opponent, although Kevin's expression did not change, he was shocked in his heart.

Because of the extremely terrifying destructive power of "Heavenly Fire Judgment", few people in the entire "Fire Moth" can use it. Only he can perfectly control this weapon by relying on his own transformed cold energy.

However, the attack he unleashed with the Key of God was blocked so easily by the opponent.

Although he was in a hurry and did not fully unleash his full strength, the outburst was at least 80% of his strength, but it was still blocked by the opponent.

In this situation, he had to re-evaluate the difference in combat power between the two sides.

And the moment he was suppressed, Kiana took this opportunity and instantly rushed into the corridor behind him.

Although Kevin wanted to stop it, he was powerless under Li Wen's suppression.

At this moment, Alicia also instantly realized Kevin's predicament. Without time to stop Kiana, she directly bent her bow and shot at Li Wen.

Chapter 27: Twenty Minutes

With a light release of two fingers, the bowstring that had been stretched to the extreme instantly recovered, and the arrow on it instantly shot out.

Like a thunderbolt, the arrow drew a graceful arc in the air and flew towards Li Wen with a sharp whistling sound.

Because she was worried that her attack might be used by the opponent as a tool to attack Kevin, Alicia deliberately chose to shoot an arc arrow this time.

The arrow flying in the air instantly caught Li Wen's attention. He did not look back or dodge, but a hazy halo appeared on his left palm, and then he pushed it hard to the left side.

hum-

The arrow, like a torrential rain, was frozen in place the moment it was about to reach Li Wen's body, unable to move forward an inch.

The tail feathers of the arrow trembled violently, as if it still had not given up the idea of continuing to move forward and piercing through the body of the man in front of it.

However, such a fierce opponent made it meet its predetermined end sooner - destruction.

Under the collision of the two forces, the arrow body, which was originally considered solid, began to show dense cracks.

As the crack extended, the entire arrow could no longer withstand the collision of the two forces, and it completely shattered between the two forces, turning into ashes.

Although she had already judged that Li Wen's strength was definitely not simple, Alicia still did not expect that the other party could easily shatter her arrows while suppressing Kevin.

You know, at this critical moment when the survival of the "Fire Moth" was at stake, she showed no mercy.

However, her full-strength attack was easily annihilated by the opponent.

This made her feel heavy-hearted.

Can they really win against such opponents?

Kevin also realized this. Given the opponent's terrifying strength, they probably had no chance of winning.

So, he quickly shouted to Alicia, "Alisa, I'll hold him back!"

Listening to Kevin's call, Alicia also understood what he was thinking.

Kevin intended to use his own life to delay the other person so that she would have the opportunity to stop the other person and ensure the normal operation of the "consciousness hub".

Once the "Consciousness Hub" is functioning normally, the "Fire Moth" will be able to eliminate the Eighth Herrscher, allowing a large number of dormant combatants to wake up.

Then, maybe there will be a turning point.
