Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

Anna breathed a sigh of relief, and the muzzle of the gun drooped slightly. It was very tiring to hold it like this all the time.

"Anna, be alert!"

Seeing that Anna's vigilance had obviously relaxed, Lin Wei immediately shouted anxiously, "This silly girl has fallen into the trap!"

While shouting at Anna, he plunged the trekking pole in his hand into the ground, and once again into the biomass neural network that spread throughout the base's underground, instantly infusing it with a large amount of biomass virus.

The power of erosion, as a super virus with both electronic and biological properties, is fully capable of causing great physical pain to the recipient within an extremely short period of time!

Perhaps this biomass neural network does not have the immune mechanism of an organism, but it doesn’t matter. As long as it can be damaged and interfered with to a certain extent, the purpose will be achieved.

Sure enough, the moment the trekking pole was inserted into the ground, a tightly bound "girl" suddenly emerged from the ground like a ghost. Her two long pink ponytails were longer than her body. Her bound eyes looked straight at Lin Wei, and her mouth was wide open, as if she wanted to say something.

That's not a girl, but a demon warrior!

Looks pretty cute...

Bah, Alicia, look what you have done!

"Damn it!"

Lin Wei's heart was filled with alarm. He pushed Anna away without hesitation, pulled out his cane and dodged in the opposite direction.

A stream of scorching heat brushed past his back and shot towards the place where the two had just stood, melting a large pit there. Lin Wei felt the air becoming scorching hot, and the solid bricks and stones turned into lava and began to flow slowly.

If you get hit by this, you will either die or be crippled!

Seeing that his attack missed, the emotionless assassin did not feel frustrated. He just closed his mouth silently and stopped pouring out energy. A few strands of hair broke off from the ponytail on his head and flew away with the scorching air waves.

"hateful!"

Anna rolled on the ground and realized that she had just been tricked, and was actually saved by Lin Wei. These two realities made her feel ashamed and angry.

But she also knew that now was not the time to dwell on this, so she pulled out both guns and aimed them at the "hair" floating in the air, weaving a dense rain of bullets that froze them into ice chips in mid-air.

Only the two "hairs" farthest away managed to land on the ground. In an instant, they turned out of thin air into two assassins holding sharp sickles, and rushed towards Lin Wei silently and quickly.

Anna pointed her gun at them again.

"Don't worry about me, go destroy that guy over there!"

Lin Wei shouted loudly, telling Anna the priorities at this time.

"Quickly end this battle, and don't let it summon more assassins!"

Anna turned her head to look at the demon warrior floating up and down in the air. Sure enough, its "horsetail" began to move again, and at the same time, its mouth opened slightly, and energy began to slowly gather deep in the root of its tongue.

Anna's reason told her that it was imperative to quickly eliminate it, but she hesitated.

The two summoned assassins are too fast, Lin Wei will be in danger!

Damn it, it’s all my fault…

Anna blamed herself for the consequences of her previous moment of laxity.

"What are you dawdling about?"

Lin Wei urged loudly again, "Why is this silly girl starting to waste time again? Can she please understand the situation?"

"None of your business here, just do what you're supposed to do!"

Lin Wei kept retreating, putting distance between himself and the assassins. With a wave of his hand, the four constructs guarding him quickly rushed towards the approaching assassins, and almost in the blink of an eye, one of them was chopped down.

At the same time, in the direction of the stairs, the two constructs that had just been separated also quickly turned around and came here to provide support.

Seeing Lin Wei's resolute and clear attitude, Anna shook her lips and threw a pistol at Lin Wei.

"then!"

I don't care whether it can be used or not, just in case.

After throwing the pistol, Anna no longer looked to see if Lin Wei had caught it successfully. Instead, she drew her blade and rushed towards the hateful twin-tailed assassin with anger.

Quick victory!

Chapter 54: Tower defense game?

I understand the logic. But...

How could a perfectly normal dead person, a complete entity with mass and collision volume, appear out of thin air from under the floor?

Also, can anyone explain to me how it managed to pull out a hair and turn it into another dead body of the same size as it?

Lin Wei pondered for a moment and said that he understood.

Earth escape, plucking hair and turning into clones...

The case is solved, this is Journey to the West!

"then!"

Anna's cry pulled Lin Wei's thoughts out of his weird imagination. When he looked up, he saw a rather strange-shaped pistol drawing a parabola in the air and landing right here. He raised his hand lightly and caught it accurately.

Wow, it’s quite heavy!

Lin Wei played with this "only three-star weapon" in the game with a little curiosity. This was the first time he had personally touched a real Honkai weapon - of course, the Divine Key did not count.

Before this, Anna never let him touch her equipment. Of course, Lin Wei himself was very careful and never paid any attention to this.

But Lin Wei had seen bigger scenes after all, so his curiosity came and went quickly; he just shook it in his hand, took another look, and lost interest in playing with it.

Lin Wei regained his focus and glanced in Anna's direction. She was now charging towards the distant demon warriors with her sword. He didn't need to worry about them for the time being. Fighting against the demon warriors was the profession of the Valkyrie.

Lin Wei ignored the two Scythe Warriors charging towards him. Even though they were a level higher in strength, speed, and agility than the average Scythe Warriors, with his Constructs blocking them, it wasn't yet time for him to reveal his true colors.

He stuck the trekking pole into the ground again, and the invisible "virus" slowly spread in the air and under the floor like invisible tentacles; he held the gun in one hand and closed his eyes as if in deep thought.

A few seconds later, Lin Wei suddenly opened his eyes. Out of thin air, a black pistol of even more bizarre shape appeared in his free hand. He raised his hand and fired a shot at an inconspicuous corner in the chaos. He did not use the weapon Anna gave him.

"Oh!"

As the gunshots fell, a wisp of smoke and dust appeared out of thin air, and then fell to the ground - the other assassin hiding there had turned into ashes before he could even let out a scream.

"If there are creatures that can burrow underground, then it's no surprise that there are also creatures that can become invisible."

Lin Wei muttered to himself. Suddenly, he seemed to understand why the World Serpents were still studying the Death Soldiers. They did have some unexpected magical abilities.

Lin Wei casually dispersed the projection of the Holy Fire Judgment and eliminated the virus that was spreading everywhere. While cursing and soothing his suddenly accelerated heartbeat, he couldn't help but sneer.

"The wolf in front is feigning sleep, probably to lure the enemy... Ha, he has quite a few tricks up his sleeve."

While playing tricks in the elevator shaft, he sneaked underground to launch a sneak attack;

If the sneak attack fails, switch to a strong attack, and at the same time attract the attention of your own side, allowing another high-level assassin hiding in the dark to continue the sneak attack.

Lin Wei confirmed that there was no third high-level assassin.

After all, this base is so small. How many cards can the mouse hiding inside have to play?

At this time, the construct "soldier" standing in front of Lin Wei was ruthlessly chopped down by the sickle soldiers, and more than half of the soldiers were killed. The defense line was about to be broken; fortunately, the other two constructs coming from afar arrived in time to join the battle, filling the gap and restoring the 4 vs. 2 situation.

"That's pretty useless, isn't it?"

Lin Wei felt a slight pain in his teeth. The combat systems pre-installed on these constructs were mainly designed to deal with humans, so using them against assassins was somewhat unsuitable.

What's more, they are facing the Royal Guards whose combat power is comparable to that of B-level Valkyries. They are inevitably a little stretched and shaky, and are about to lose more men.

"Tsk, forget it, I'll just do it by hand..."

Lin Wei held his forehead with his hand, automatic combat was indeed unreliable.

In the distance, another similar sickle warrior appeared out of nowhere, ignoring Anna, and ready to join the battle on his side with his weapon.

The situation was about to become four against three, and it was obviously impossible to stop it. Lin Wei called back a few constructs that were guarding the machine guns deep in the passage to reinforce the defense line.

"Tsk, a tower defense game, right? And with monster spawning?"

Lin Wei's mind began to wander again. He felt like a carrot, or some other strange thing - a few people were desperately trying to protect it, while another group was desperately trying to get rid of it...

"Tsk, boring, don't force me to cheat!"

……

On the other side, Anna, who was approaching the demon warriors with a knife in hand, had just missed when she heard a gunshot behind her. She suddenly became anxious, worried that Lin Wei could not bear the burden brought by the Honkai energy weapon.

How is he? Is he okay? Anna turned back to look at Lin Wei with some worry.

The assassins who had just retreated in mid-air, avoiding the attack, took advantage of Anna's distraction to rip off a few more strands of hair, preparing to summon them again. Then, Anna, having regained her composure, slew them all, escaping only one, which landed on the ground and transformed into a new assassin, attacking Lin Wei's direction.

Anna was unable to stop him because the twin-tailed warrior in front of her was about to make a new summon. She had to suppress her worries and self-blame and continue to attack.

She recalled the instructors' earnest advice during her study and training at the headquarters - if you encounter summoned assassins on the battlefield, you must eliminate them immediately at all costs, otherwise they will continue to summon more assassins!

"then!"

Lin Wei's shouts were heard behind him, followed by the sound of an object cutting through the air approaching rapidly.

Anna heard the sound and quickly caught it - it was the pistol she had just handed over.

Anna felt relieved. She understood that Lin Wei was using this method to reassure her that he was fine.

This guy is still trying to be tough at this time!

Anna felt a little sad. She bit her lip, holding the knife in one hand and the gun in the other, and rushed towards the enemy with full energy!

Fight quickly and defeat this guy as soon as possible. Lin Wei still needs her support!

Although the Demon God's Death Soldier was as powerful as an A-class Valkyrie, and the energy rays fired from its mouth were incredibly destructive; Anna, as a descendant of the Shaniat family, was not an ordinary A-class Valkyrie after all, so she was quickly forced to lose the upper hand. Half of her long ponytail was cut off, frozen into ice crystals in the air, and shattered into powder when it fell to the ground.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the demon warriors floated in the air and fell heavily, preparing to dive into the ground again, bypassing everyone and attacking Lin Wei directly.

"Don't even think about running away!"

Seeing the opportunity, Anna raised her hand and shot the assassin at his feet. The aftermath of the energy bullet and the brick and stone debris stopped the assassin's attempt.

The assassin, whose attempt was once again thwarted, was not discouraged, or perhaps it simply did not understand what discouragement meant. At this moment, he slightly curled up his body and began to gather strength, preparing to launch a final attack.

Dark energy explodes!

In such a small and cramped underground space, if the assassins succeed, no one will survive due to the agglomeration effect!

"Don't think about it!"

Anna was filled with anger and rage, and threw the blade in her hand like a javelin - just as she had often practiced when she was in the family - hitting the assassin's chest, nailing it to the wall and successfully interrupting its energy gathering process.

Anna took advantage of the situation and moved closer. She grabbed the handle of the knife and cut the dead man's body horizontally. The body looked even a little petite. A slender and pale arm fell to the ground with a "click".

After taking out the weapon, Anna was afraid that the assassin would revive, so she turned around and slashed again, this time directly cutting off the assassin's very slender neck. A head with a ponytail flew into the air and was blown up by Anna's gun, with debris flying everywhere.

This time he's definitely dead.

"How violent!"

Lin Wei, who witnessed all this from a distance, was amazed and gained a new understanding of the "Valkyrie" group.

Although the Demon God's Death Soldiers were successfully eliminated, the individual Death Soldiers it summoned would not perish with it.

At this moment, there are only a few constructs left standing in front of him. The last surviving collective is in a miserable state under the joint attack of three assassins and is about to perish; but Lin Wei is indifferent to this.

It wasn't because he didn't care about the lives of the cannon fodder, nor because Anna was about to arrive, but because he really had no strength left -

God knows how many times I used the Key of God tonight!

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

Although he was not as bad as Fu Hua, who overused the Divine Key and even vomited blood, Lin Wei was really physically overdrawn.

The Key of God, this was not something that someone of his level could use. It should be a power that could be successfully controlled by creatures at the level of S-class Valkyries, Stigma Awakeners, Fusion Warriors, or even Herrschers.

However, forcing it to be used usually comes at a heavy price. In the original world line, the reason why Chen Tianwu's parts broke down along the way while rescuing Anna was not only due to the low temperature damage caused by the Herrscher, but also because of the backlash caused by his forced use of the Seven Thunders of Purification along the way.

Lin Wei is now able to use the Key of Corrosion beyond his level, and the price he pays is just the consumption of physical strength. This in itself is already an outrageous thing, so what else does he need?

Moreover, if he could use the stigmata to help share the pressure, he would be able to do even more.

On the other side, after Anna successfully eliminated the demon soldiers, she left their broken bodies behind and quickly returned to support Lin Wei; using both gun and sword, she successfully wiped out the three Royal Guard-level sickle soldiers at the same time as the last construct fell.

"Lin Wei, how do you feel? Don't scare me..."

Lin Wei's face was extremely pale due to his excessive physical exhaustion. Anna was so frightened that she quickly held his face and checked it from side to side. She then turned his clothes over and over to make sure there were no signs of scratches or bloodstains.

Sometimes she raised her arm and rolled up her sleeves to look at his arm, and sometimes she opened his collar to look at his neck, fearing that she would see some terrible wound on his body, or some terrible lines that could be eroded by the collapse.

Fortunately, no, everything is normal.

After finishing the examination, Anna couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then the sour feeling in her heart suddenly exploded, and turned into grievances that surged into her heart; the dam called "restraint" only lasted for a few seconds before it was washed away by the surging emotions, and the whole person couldn't help but throw herself into Lin Wei's arms and burst into tears.
