A journey of Shadowverse and Honkai Impact 3rd

"So, Lord Jackal, is there a possibility that something is wrong with Lord Gray Snake?"

Catherine offered her own opinion as a possible reference only, and this was also the worst possibility that the Jackal had thought of. However, based on preconceived notions, they still trusted the Gray Snake more.

"Who knows? Once a chain of suspicion is formed, it's difficult to resolve. Those three natives were right. In this strange place, it's best not to operate in large groups."

Recalling the scene when the gray snake communicated with the natives, the jackal said quietly with the memory still fresh in his mind.

"The strange things here are truly terrifying in their ability to cause organized destruction."

Shortly after the words fell, a new message came from the communicator. It was Gray Snake speaking again. Faced with the already strange atmosphere in the team, he made a prompt decision to seek external assistance. He left the hotel directly and headed up to the temple in the core of the settlement.

At the end of this sentence, he told the still trustworthy Jackal to hold on to the situation and wait for him to come with the local indigenous people to rescue her. If she couldn't hold on any longer, she should hurry out and go as far up as possible.

"Oh, he reacted pretty quickly.

Based on the information at hand, Jackal could roughly judge that this hotel had become a place of trouble. No matter who was the problem, it posed a great threat to ordinary people like her.

"Catherine, let's go to the first floor lobby and have the mechas we can still trust form a temporary defensive circle around the shrine while we wait for the Gray Snake to come and ask for help."

As he spoke, all the operations were completed in the hands of the Jackal. At the same time, a bottle of special injection was thrown to Catherine who was accompanying him. The bright purple color was particularly eye-catching.

"Lord Jackal? What's this?" Catherine asked in confusion.

"Since the armed forces cannot be trusted, injections used at critical moments can be compensated by wisdom."

The jackal walked with steady steps, opened the door and walked straight to the stairs leading to the first floor, talking about the effects of the injection.

"That potion allows the recipient to undergo a controlled Houkai Beast Transformation. If there's no other option, I'll have to sacrifice you."

Catherine clenched the potion in her hand and suddenly stopped, but this did not mean that she was against Lord Jackal's words, but because an unexpected person had appeared in front of them.

"Jackal, you're here just in time. I'm looking for Gray Snake for something. Do you know where he went?"

The familiar face, the calm expression, the normal tone, exposed to the blue light, her figure was naturally coated with a layer of strange brilliance.

The Jackal gestured to Catherine behind him.

"He's out. Just wait. He'll be back soon anyway."

The sound of the mecha's strides could be heard, and the iron guards who had been operating at low power suddenly woke up from their slumber, making a roar that shook the earth.

The shells were ready, the machine guns were loaded, all the safety procedures were activated, and the abundant electricity was running in the micro reactor. Suddenly, the temperature in the lobby on the first floor seemed to rise.

"I see. You left without telling me. I'll just wait here. The enemies I've encountered since arriving here have been pretty unruly, so it might be nice to stretch my muscles first.

As soon as he finished speaking, something expanded out of his body and instantly occupied the surrounding space, disrupting the surrounding light and covering the surrounding reality.

A sizzling sound of burning was heard. Facing a force that should not be here, the statue in the shrine seemed to be fighting against it, but it was obvious that the finished object that came out of the mold was not something that a small god protecting the inn could defeat.

Moon Shadow: Raven

335. Collapse and Beast Transformation

"This is how the events unfolded, Master Ochis."

As one of the leaders of the World Snake Team, the Gray Snake sincerely performed the ritual of worship to the girl standing in the main hall of the temple. This was not only a respect for the controller of the temple, but also a respect for the girl's other identity.

Also a work of Sera, this bionic man who replicated the structure of the gray snake is obviously not as good as Ochis who was born a long time ago, so he still has the idea of ​​facing his predecessor.

"I see. So, what suggestions do you have for the arrangements for these people coming from the World Serpent, Gray Snake?"

Ochis felt the wonder of life. There was already a surrendered gray snake in her home who became her experimental assistant, but now she had to face another gray snake and talk about completely different topics.

"A few can be spared, but the majority must be kept, either by killing them or imprisoning them."

Gray Snake spoke coldly. After discarding his mysterious temperament, he looked like a decisive soldier who showed no mercy to his enemies, even if they had worked together for a while.

——The desire to protect his homeland was engraved in his heart at birth and became the meaning of his existence.

In this regard, Sera did not give him the same freedom as Ochis. On the road to becoming a human being, he must first experience the long journey of being a tool.

"Who should stay, and who should go?"

Ochis spoke briefly, her tone so cold that it seemed emotionless, causing the poor language itself to have a distinct frosty feel.

"All the officers will remain, and the soldiers will select two survivors."

What this means is that apart from this, everything else remains in the real dream.

Ochis nodded her cute head, then suddenly shifted her gaze away from the gray snake and looked at a corner of the village outside the temple.

"I see. So, they managed to sneak in when the World Serpent team came in."

A hint of enlightenment flashed in his vermilion eyes. Ever since he received the news of the debugging, Ochis has been waiting for the occurrence of unusual movements, and he is mentally prepared to hand in an answer that will satisfy the master.

"Lead the way, Gray Snake. If we go there now, we can almost get what we want."

There is no need to use space transfer or other methods to arrive quickly, but let the gray snake lead the way and walk there normally. In this way, according to Ochis's calculations, the desired goal can be almost achieved.

In this way, rescuing at the critical moment of danger can also gain more gratitude. In addition, Ochis also wants to know how long the so-called Honkai Beast can last in the real dream.

"As ordered."

Gray Snake stood up from the ground, but in that instant, his admiration for Ochis disappeared instantly, and he seemed to have returned to being the leader of the World Snake team, rather than Sera's creation, Ochis's descendant.

The girl's gaze lingered on him for a moment, and only after they left the temple did she turn her gaze to the distant horizon, gazing for a long time at the cold moon, the fictitious celestial body that served as the backdrop.

He is worthy of being called a master. His astrology has reached such a level that even with scattered spiritual thoughts as raw materials, he can create such works. Dreams and the moon are indeed quite compatible. It is no wonder that the original life with rationality was born here first.

However, you are too arrogant to challenge the order set by the Master.

Ochis's face is delicate and cold, and her bright red eyes do not reveal much emotion. Her emotions only revolve around the things she cares about, breeding the heat of persistence.

the other side……

The machine gun ammunition, which should have been extremely sharp, immediately became soft and weak after leaving the muzzle. To the human eye, it appeared as a series of obvious trajectory lines, changing from fast to slow, and finally solidified in "amber".

The thing that expanded from her body was a very unqualified existence as a medium for transmitting the power of guns and cannons, and had the ability to reduce the power of guns and cannons even more than that of seawater.

"This skill is not something you should have, Raven."

In a deep voice, the Jackal applied his astonishing wisdom to the current battle situation in a rare way. He did not choose to provoke the enemy in raven skins in front of him, but instead started a conversation as if he was sure of victory, to see if he could get some information out of him while buying time.

"Ah, Jackal, forget it. I know what you are thinking when you behave so uncharacteristically like this."

In her hand, she was playing with a sharp dagger, which could be used as a close-range knife or a long-range projectile. The dagger jumped up and down in her hand, emitting a cold light, and its side reflected the heads of the two men.

"But I'm also quite curious, Honkai Beast, hehe, so I'll give you some time."

"Don't let me down."

Moon Demon and Moon Shadow, who were no different from Raven, said this, and actually put away their obvious murderous intent, allowing Catherine to absorb the injection and complete the subsequent series of changes.

The muscles and bones were burning, and it was not known whether it was burned by the heat bursting out from deep within the genes, or by the destructive energy rushing into the body, eroding it to a terrible extent.

As an intellectual naturalist, Catherine possessed an elegant temperament and a beautiful appearance, but at this moment, her skin, which was almost about to burst, completely destroyed her human existence, tearing all the concepts attached to her essence to pieces, leaving only the bloody bestiality.

A rational evil beast hatched from a human body, which was no different from the birth process of the Moon Demon.

When Moon Shadow thought so, her thoughts wandered to the other Honkai creatures in Raven's impression. In her opinion, the birth of other Honkai creatures might be the same.

The seeds fall into the soil, absorb nutrients from the soil, and then break out of the shell, completing a de facto process of plunder, parasitism, and breaking out of the cocoon.

“To be honest, this process is quite disappointing to me…”

Moon Shadow expressed his own opinion, but Catherine, who had transformed into a Honkai beast, would not waste precious battle time on meaningless waste. When she transformed into it, it understood the terrible suppressive power of the surrounding environment on Honkai energy.

Especially after it completed its transformation into a beast, those seemingly peaceful forces all turned into poison to it, greatly reducing its activity time. In three minutes at most, it would fall into a near-death situation and be deprived of its life by the environment.

The fierce sprint brought with it unparalleled strength, and the hard shell was like the hardest steel shield in the world. Combined with the giant beast's body size of over five meters, its momentum was no less than that of a high-speed locomotive.

"Tsk."

A cold voice that was in line with Raven's temperament came out of her mouth. Moon Shadow narrowed her eyes and, with Raven's experience in dealing with Honkai creatures, she instantly grasped its weakness. With all her strength, the cold light immediately formed a network to cut the corpses.

There's nothing much to say. Moon Shadow, who broke out of the mold of Raven, is much closer to her prime than Raven, whose Honkai energy was suppressed in the real dream.

It's easy to deal with a Honkai beast that looks like it's at the Temple level.

336. Silk thread

The dagger intertwined with the hard muscles and bones of the Honkai beast, leaving a sharp cold light. In the distance, the human figure turned into a real dark night crow, dropping illusory crow feathers.

A milky white outline lingered outside the filthy black feathers, like a manifestation of power. After the phenomenon ended, the intact shadow of the moon appeared in the first-floor hall covered by its own field.

There was a relaxed smile on her cold face. As the dagger in her hand was retracted, the tall Honkai beast shattered into pieces in her eyes, as fragile as a porcelain doll.

"It seems that the Honkai Beast is nothing more than this."

"Jackal, use whatever tricks you have. We are colleagues after all. I haven't had enough fun on this stage yet."

The tone and voice of her colleague were more harsh than ever before, which made the Jackal think that the former Raven was actually not bad. Although he didn't like her very much, he was still a colleague who could be trusted, but their relationship was not so good.

It's nothing like now, she was smiling coquettishly while speaking with extremely sarcastic words, and her eyes showed the interest of playing with people. She must have regarded her as a trapped turtle, so she had such an arrogant attitude.

"Don't underestimate the power of Honkai and technology, you raven-clad fellow."

Pretending to be still in control of the situation, the Jackal spoke coldly, the arrogance revealed in his words seemed even more arrogant than Moon Shadow's. For a moment, even Moon Shadow felt doubtful.

What exactly does the jackal rely on?

Buzz.

Something like an intense electric current sounded above, and the surrounding area was invaded by the overflowing objects. Yue Zhiying, whose eyes suddenly became surprised, knew what was happening without even seeing it.

Hee, it's Honkai energy. You don't use containers to restrain it, but instead let it overflow, trying to create a venue suitable for you to perform.

In essence, it is still a product of the magic system and there is a fundamental conflict with the Honkai energy. In the real dream, even the so-called offering is just a trick to transfer the Honkai energy to the scientific research reserve room of the home, serving as the collected material.

And now, this Moon Demon, who was born from the Raven, experienced the scene of the conflict between the two systems exploding.

The overloaded mecha converted to a combat system that used Honkai energy, and the shells it fired caused area damage, not only destroying the buildings in the hotel, but also completely shattering the Moon Shadow that was released into the field.

As for the intense buzzing sound, it was the thundering blow delivered by the restored Honkai Beast. In the intense golden light, there was a faint burning hole that exposed the normal world beneath the field.

"Huh, I don't know why the gods need these things as offerings. They are so disgusting."

The Shadow of the Moon revealed his inner thoughts, and all unnecessary emotions gradually disappeared from his eyes. When his eyes became extremely cold, a black crow with a chaotic core came from the void with pale eyes, causing an illusory silver mist to spread.

There was a loud bang and the sonic boom cloud briefly flashed over the thrown dagger. The figure attacked by the Honkai Beast dissipated like mist. The figure that appeared on the other side immediately launched this overly direct assassination tactic at all enemies in sight. Even the powerless Jackal was not surprised. It was obvious that he wanted to put everyone to death.

"Why, are you so anxious?"

The Jackal mocked her without forgetting his original intention. Before he finished speaking, a scarlet mecha flashed in front of her and blocked the thrown hidden weapon with a strong defense. However, the expression under the Jackal's mask suddenly became extremely ugly.

A smooth, fiery cut suddenly appeared on the mecha that blocked the view. The woman, emitting a silver glow, grinned happily and was about to deliver a fatal blow. The extremely cold atmosphere had already grasped the heart of the prey, making the jackal feel the genuine chill.

At this moment, death was extremely close to her, and her self-proclaimed astonishing wisdom could not allow her to think of any good solution, so she could only gamble, gambling on the possibility that the collapse could bring about a turnaround.

The moment he couldn't breathe, the figure in front of him suddenly turned into mist and was scattered by several dark red arrows condensed by Honkai energy. A familiar dark red color unfolded before his eyes, and the sense of security it brought almost made the Jackal die in the ups and downs.

"What did you do?!"

The Jackal cursed harshly, while the Raven in front of her replied calmly.

"Stop making noise, or I'll throw you over!"

The choked jackal stopped talking for a moment. Looking at the angry raven, she had to behave herself temporarily. As a weakling, she obediently ran to the back and waited for the outcome of the battle.

"Oh my, you actually woke up. I didn't intend to kill you. Is it really worth wasting my chance of survival for this guy?"

Voices identical to his own came from all directions, and amidst the continuous sound of gunfire, he could hear sudden and violent explosions. Raven, who had injected himself with Honkai energy, knew that even if he joined the battle, he might not be able to defeat this guy.

Just wanting to defeat oneself is difficult enough, let alone facing oneself who has evolved new abilities. No matter how you look at it, this is a battle with little chance of winning.

The injection of Honkai energy was injected into the body without regard for life. Feeling the abundant power flowing out from every limb, filling the lack of confidence, the concentrating Raven knew that his battle now was not for victory, but to delay time.

Raven didn't believe that such a situation would not be noticed by the indigenous settlement.

The surface of the skin showed signs of lines caused by the erosion of the Honkai energy. The Raven, whose condition had reached an extreme, pulled out his usual dagger from his clothes and immediately started a fierce struggle with the oncoming "self".

The collision of great forces, the interweaving of reality and illusion, the dripping blood spilling in the silver mist, the unrestrained torrent of red-gold thunder, the battle between the fusion warriors and the Honkai beasts, who represent the power of Honkai, and the monsters under the magic system at this moment is truly eye-opening.

The Honkai energy collides with the mysterious magic, and the struggle between them has already penetrated into the microscopic level. In the eyes of Ochis standing outside, the hotel now looks strange.

The house was filled with purple light, as if it was about to seep out from the walls, creating a unique work of art. However, no matter how much Honkai energy there was, it was just a drop in the ocean in the entire real dream environment and could not cause much waves.

"It was a truly interesting fight. In a sense, it can also be seen as a reference to the consequences of our homeworld being exposed to a high-energy environment."

"Let's go, Gray Snake. It's time to quiet down here until the debugger arrives."

Speaking as if it were a matter of course in a cold tone, Ochis waved her hand, and numerous silk threads disappeared into the entire hotel.

As both a puppet herself and an outstanding puppeteer, she naturally understands the technique called the Thread of Domination.
