Chapter 500

Elysia and Kevin came to his side, both of them confused. A meeting? What's there to discuss? Just rush over to where the Herrscher is.

That's a Herrscher! Every second of delay could cause immeasurable harm.

"Don't be anxious. Since it's Mei speaking, there must be a reason. It's fine; anyway, with Vill-V... with the Spiral Workshop, the time of just one meeting won't be a big deal."

"Mmm!"

"Okay!"

Hearing Bai Ge say this, the two of them immediately felt like they had found their backbone, and the anxiety relaxed quite a bit.

And Hua, standing not far away, had a somewhat complex expression; she was still an ordinary soldier.

It wasn't that Bai Ge didn't want to arrange the super-variation surgery for her, but the Judgement-class Honkai Beast—Garuda—set by the official lore hadn't been born yet, and there wasn't even a trace of information; he didn't know if it was a wild Honkai Beast or a companion Honkai Beast of the Herrscher.

There was no detail in his memories of the past life, and Bai Ge didn't intend to arrange another Honkai Beast for her to deal with. After all, she was a future Flame-Chaser; he'd rather wait for the right one than settle for less.

However, Hua was a bit impatient.

Hua: (I really want to become stronger quickly and stand with them...)

The group soon arrived at the combat conference room.

Seeing Mei nod at Bai Ge, she stood up to explain the current situation. Although she only joined Fire Moth from the Third Honkai, with Bai Ge's full support and her own talent that couldn't even be described as monstrous...

Mei had quickly climbed into the management level and was now serving as the head of a research institute.

"Mei, what's going on? The Fourth Herrscher has been born, we need to solve it as soon as possible!" Kevin said anxiously.

"Kevin, calm down, listen to Mei." Bai Ge held down the "husky" beside him.

"You're still the calm one, Bai Ge. The reason I paused the troops' sortie is because it's useless to sortie now. The Fourth Herrscher's codename has been confirmed as the Herrscher of Wind, and her action pattern is completely different from the previous Herrschers."

"Hmm? What did this Herrscher do?"

Bai Ge frowned, having a bad premonition.

He had no prior information about the Herrscher of Wind of the previous civilization, and thinking about the many interferences he had made in the previous civilization, there was no doubt he had disrupted the original plot.

Since many things on the human side had changed.

Then it wouldn't be surprising for Honkai to make changes.

Mei pushed her glasses and gritted her teeth.

"The Herrscher of Wind... has run away."

"???" xN

At this moment, everyone was stunned, even Bai Ge's eyes widened, looking as if he suspected he had misheard.

Mei indicated she knew this would be the reaction. She opened the screen projection and directly released the footage observed by the satellite.

That was something that happened ten minutes ago.

A great Honkai eruption suddenly broke out in a small town near the sea, the scope of which was even greater than that of the Herrscher of Thunder.

Then, a girl with cyan wind wings on her back and a white scarf wrapped around her neck flew into the sky with a god-like posture—she was the Fourth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Wind!

Seeing this Herrscher of Wind wave her hand, several giant tornadoes instantly rose from the sea. This scene of destroying the world made many people present break out in cold sweat.

Kevin and the others also had grave expressions. Although they had long known the terror of Herrschers, every time they saw these Honkai apostles unleashing their authority, they still felt extremely nervous.

Then, they saw the Herrscher of Wind blow a small island on the sea and smash it directly toward the land.

Bai Ge: (Why can the island fly... If Raven saw this scene, she would definitely have PTSD.)

And just at this moment, a mecha unit appeared on the video, attacking the Herrscher of Wind.

Bai Ge suddenly realized, thinking that he had indeed built a hidden hangar in that area.

However, these were just low-tier mechas used to deal with ordinary Honkai Beasts; there was no doubt they would be instantly killed by the Herrscher, but even if they only hindered her for a few seconds, it wasn't built in vain.

Bai Ge and Vill-V roughly divided mechas into three levels.

Low-tier mecha: used to deal with lower-tier Honkai Beasts.

High-tier mecha: used to deal with upper-tier Honkai Beasts.

God-slaying mecha: used to deal with Herrschers.

The third type was still in the design stage.

Even a genius like Vill-V would need to spend a lot of time designing a mecha to deal with a Herrscher, and by the time Bai Ge constructed it, it would definitely take a long time.

Accidentally went off-topic.

The scene everyone expected, where the Herrscher of Wind destroyed the low-tier mechas like swatting flies, didn't appear; instead, she turned around and ran away without looking back.

"What? What the hell?!"

"The Herrscher, ran away?!"

"Damn, is she that cowardly?"

"Damn, she's already gone!"

The jaws of everyone in the conference room almost dropped.

Even Bai Ge was greatly surprised.

This Herrscher actually didn't inflate?!

Is this reasonable! Is a Herrscher who doesn't inflate still a Herrscher?

Bai Ge: (Damn! Can you have some backbone? When have we Herrschers ever been cowardly? Which of your predecessors wasn't a tough guy who stood alone against the world without hiding? Your future successors are also reckless men who fight the whole world head-on. Even the Herrscher of Corruption has more guts than you!)

Back then, even Bai Ge had inflated for a while after becoming a Herrscher, but this Herrscher of Wind was actually scared away by a few low-tier mechas.

This was as ridiculous as a lion being afraid of ants!

"The Herrscher running away is indeed something beyond everyone's expectations, but the most important thing is her escape speed. Just a preliminary estimate... it's already Mach 7."

"What?! So fast!" xN

Everyone was greatly surprised again, and Mei also had a headache. Excluding the special existence of the Herrscher of Void.

The mobility of the Herrscher of Wind was absolutely the strongest among all Herrschers that had appeared so far, and even those that would appear in the future.

And such a Herrscher chose not to fight head-on, but to flee; then humans almost had no means to capture her.

Even if they wanted to calculate and predict her flight path and wait, there was no guarantee she wouldn't change direction and continue fleeing after seeing them. Even if she didn't flee, she wouldn't be easy to deal with, after all... dealing with the Herrscher of Wind on the stage called the sky.

Everyone thought of the word "suicide."

Currently, not many Fusion Warriors could fly, and even those who could barely fly couldn't win against the Herrscher of Wind who manipulated ideal fluids.

"Then what should we do now? We can't just leave her alone. If she throws two tornadoes while fleeing, who knows how much disaster she could cause!"

"But our fastest fighter jets can't catch up to her, and even if they did, there's no way to stop her. What on earth should we do?"

"Damn Herrscher, if you have the ability, fight head-on!"

Everyone in the combat conference room was unwilling and angry. Although the Third Herrscher incident was equally desperate and came with a companion Honkai Beast, at least the person was right there and could be reached.

However, this Herrscher of Wind didn't give you a chance to fight head-on at all, flying all over the world. Even if she encountered the weakest mecha, her first reaction was to flee immediately.

She was so cautious and cowardly, not like a Herrscher at all!

However, just when everyone was having a hard time and a headache.

"Aili, I promised before that I would let you have this head, do you still want it?" Bai Ge asked Elysia with a smile, his expression having returned to composure.

"Bai Ge, don't joke at a time like this, hurry up and use your clever brain to think of a way!" The pink elf also looked at the Herrscher of Wind on the screen with a face full of worry.

"Since you don't want it, then I'll take it."

"Okay, okay, no problem... what did you say?!"

In an instant, the eyes of everyone in the conference room turned to Bai Ge. The relaxed tone Bai Mouren just used made it seem as if the Herrscher of Wind was already doomed.

Expectant gazes gathered on Bai Ge.

There was no way, these people couldn't help but be expectant!

The white-haired boy before them had already defeated Herrschers twice in a row, and when everyone was desperate and gave up, he turned the tide twice and brought victory to humanity.

"Bai Ge, you have a way, right!"

Even Doctor Mei, who was known for absolute rationality, couldn't help but feel expectant and confident at this moment. If it were someone else, she would definitely think this composure was a fake.

But Bai Ge was different, he was special!

It was as if as long as Bai Ge hadn't given up.

Then humanity hadn't lost to Honkai.

This was the prestige brought to him by the victories so far.

"Mmm, that's right. Everyone can go and prepare for the aftermath. Let's provide support and rescue work for the areas she destroyed first—I will solve the Herrscher of Wind."

"Okay, okay, okay! Great!"

"As expected of Bai Ge, so reliable!"

"Ah ah, finally there's hope..." ===== CHAPTER 501 =====
