Chapter 370

~7 min read 1,333 words

After taking a few shots and finally blowing up the floating cannons, the Kevin puppet conducted a status assessment.

It judged that the current Bai Ge would not be at a disadvantage even if he were to face the Flame-Chasers.

If a real fight were to break out, perhaps only the Flame-Chasers could suppress him, and even Kevin, without entering the state of Deliverance, would find it difficult to suppress Bai Ge.

The Kevin puppet looked at its mini An-Utu.

The blade was now covered in cracks.

Just as Bai Ge had said, this was after all a replica of a Divine Key, and its combat range was mid-to-close range, but Bai Ge was an all-rounder.

Just like now, the floating cannons that the Kevin puppet had managed to destroy were once again attacking it in several times the quantity.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

"... Troublesome."

The Kevin puppet dodged with great difficulty.

If these were ordinary floating cannons, it wouldn't bother dodging, but they happened to be Selene-type floating cannons capable of converting Honkai energy into ordinary energy.

Every time it was hit, the Kevin puppet's internal energy would decrease significantly.

The Honkai energy that could originally guarantee the body's operation for 1500 years had already decreased to less than 10% now, less than 20 minutes into this battle.

"Retreat order not issued, combat continues."

"Hmm? Still not giving up?"

Bai Ge raised an eyebrow, looking at the puppet that was already tattered but still maintained a fighting stance; even if the opponent was just machinery and programming, he felt a little respect.

"Hope to spar with the real Kevin in the future."

"... Initiating backup power source."

"Damn! Want to play self-destruct?"

Bai Ge quickly increased the distance; what backup power source, isn't that just playing self-destruct?

Although he wouldn't lose much health even if he took it head-on, Bai Ge still chose to pull back and shoot the puppet from a distance.

However, just at this moment.

"Kevin puppet, hold this guy back for me!"

Otto's remote command came through, causing it to immediately change its tactical mode.

"Understood."

"... What the hell."

Bai Ge was stunned for a moment, also noticing that the opponent's actions had changed; the puppet's previously surging Honkai energy stabilized again, and it suddenly started playing conservatively.

And just at this moment, an urgent cry came through his earpiece.

"Something big is wrong, Bai Ge! In the sky! In the sky!"

"Hmm? What's wrong with the sky?"

Kiana's voice made him look up subconsciously; the next second, Bai Ge's eyes widened, and he was both astonished and furious.

"Otto, you really don't act like a human at all!"

He saw three missiles descending from the sky.

He would never forget that purple light.

That was a Honkai Fission Bomb!!

……………………

"Honkai Fission Bomb launch successful, fifteen seconds until target impact!"

Otto gazed at the three purple lights in the sky that were becoming brighter and brighter, his face devoid of joy or sorrow, only coldness, and this was his true expression after removing his smiling mask.

But perhaps the mask had been worn for too long and had merged with his face; just a few seconds later, Otto returned to that 'elegant smile.'

Then he opened his arms.

Like a host announcing the opening of a play.

"Now, let us repeat history!"

This clown was pulling back the curtain on a tragedy.

(What a nostalgic scene, the Herrscher of the Void from 15 years ago also faced such despair, now it's your turn, K423, struggle to your heart's content under these three Honkai Fission Bombs and put on a good show.)

(You know, back then I fired all of Schicksal's missiles and fission bombs, yet they were all defended against by your predecessor.)

(I don't expect you to achieve the same great feat as him, after all, not everyone can become a hero.)

(You don't need to protect everyone, just protecting yourself is enough.)

Otto watched St. Freya Academy cruelly and ruthlessly.

If possible, he didn't want to use such methods.

But now he could only try to forcibly awaken the Herrscher consciousness residing in the Gem of Freedom within Kiana's body.

According to his research, when the host faces a life-and-death crisis, the Herrscher personality within the gem has a certain probability of awakening, manipulating incomplete authority for self-protection.

Moreover, the Honkai Fission Bomb was a huge crisis that the Herrscher of the Void once faced during the Second Eruption; such an impressive experience would inevitably make her personality restless.

"Before the fission bombs fall, you only need to awaken part of your authority to teleport yourself to a safe zone, and then the falling fission bombs will raze St. Freya Academy to the ground."

"When you see your shelter razed to the ground and your close friends dead, such despair will surely make you become a Herrscher."

Otto said with great confidence.

"It's just a pity..."

He lowered his eyes slightly, watching the Valkyries belonging to Schicksal still fighting St. Freya under his orders.

By the time the fission bombs fall, they will also be turned to ashes, and it's too late to dodge now.

"Forget it, if they die, they die."

Otto observed a moment of silence for his own Valkyries, and then began to look forward to the arrival of destruction.

After more than a decade of development, the current Honkai Fission Bombs are more powerful, and there is absolutely no possibility of interception; although St. Freya's protective shield has amazing defensive power, it definitely won't be able to stop them.

However, just as he intended to open the champagne early.

To celebrate the birth of the second Herrscher of the Void, and to celebrate being one step closer to his long-cherished wish.

"Report, target failed to be held back."

"Hmm?"

The message from the Kevin puppet made Otto freeze.

He hurriedly looked toward the direction where the two were fighting.

He saw a cyan stream of light flying toward St. Freya at an unimaginable speed, instantly reducing the distance that was originally impossible to cover to zero.

(That's Bai Ge?! Impossible, how could his speed suddenly be so fast, and even if he rushed back, he shouldn't have the means to block the fission bombs, An-Utu's "Out of the Sheath" won't work either, the distance of the fission bombs is already so close...)

Suddenly, Otto's train of thought was interrupted.

Looking at Bai Ge flying above St. Freya Academy, facing those three falling bombs head-on.

Otto lunged toward the screen in front of him in a loss of composure.

Memories from 15 years ago flashed through his brain instantly.

"It's just like back then..."

He widened his eyes, saying in disbelief.

At the same time, inside St. Freya Academy, all the A-rank Valkyries who had experienced the Second Eruption were shocked and dazed, their eyes fixed on Bai Ge's figure.

"Exactly the same as back then."

"Why did this happen again?"

"No, don't, hurry and dodge!"

Facing the destruction descending from the sky.

This time the young man used his body as a shield again!

They looked up at Bai Ge's back in disbelief, and at this moment, the white-haired young man's figure overlapped with the Herrscher of the Void's figure from 15 years ago, as if they were one person!

The Valkyries only felt as if they had returned to the Second Eruption, witnessing once again that Herrscher young man's great figure protecting everything! At the same time, they felt that they would probably witness his fall once again...

However.

"How could it be the same as back then!!!"

Bai Ge roared loudly.

The flames on the young man's body extinguished for the time being, replaced by cyan flowing winds beginning to howl.

A pair of wind wings unfolded behind the young man, and thousands of flowing winds turned into his soldiers.

The gale erupted from bottom to top, blowing toward the falling Honkai Fission Bombs.

"Herrscher of... Wind...?!" ===== CHAPTER 371 =====
