Chapter 564

Later, they even used weapons.

Both used long spears, and every strike flashed with cold light, like a divine dragon roaring.

But when they hit the ground, they didn't destroy even a bit.

Himeko wouldn't think they were just for show.

Yesterday she tried it. When she fully activated the Gem of Haste, her fist burning with flames could only smash a large stone in Shushan.

Everything in this world is quite hard.

It's probably the world strength issue Aetheris mentioned.

From Himeko's perspective, the two people in the battle, their basic physical fitness, plus the blessing of internal energy, are also outstanding among A-rank Valkyries.

Seeing that Himeko seemed curious, Ying'er explained:

"They are two innate peak experts, just one step away from breaking through to master."

Himeko suddenly realized.

She started calculating in her heart.

If innate peak is equivalent to the strongest A-rank Valkyrie, then master experts are at least the weaker ones among S-rank Valkyries.

The strength calculation of Valkyries in the Honkai world is very strange.

Not to mention Kiana and Mei, whose ratings are not high but have the strength of Herrschers.

Weaker S-rank Valkyries, like Rita, could probably trade blows with master experts.

If you want to win, it depends on luck.

As for grandmasters...

Himeko hadn't judged, but purely based on the power inside Ying'er, Rita would fall if she encountered her.

But powerful S-rank Valkyries, like Durandal...

Ying'er couldn't even force out Durandal's second form. Durandal could defeat her without wearing armor.

Of course, Durandal cannot be substituted into the calculation formula; she has a kind of super-model beauty of strength.

Strictly speaking, she is a Durandal-level Valkyrie.

However, according to Himeko's calculation, the former S-rank knight Siegfried, without using Shamash, should be able to defeat Ying'er, but couldn't defeat that Delamont.

Using Shamash and launching a powerful attack...

Ten Delamonts wouldn't be enough for him to cut.

Looking at it this way, the upper and lower limits of the strong in the Honkai world are really stretched very high.

But it can't be said like that either.

Shamash is a Divine Key, and the strongest Key of Destruction.

That counts as a technological weapon.

Using a weapon to fight someone who is empty-handed also counts as playing dirty.

If you really count weapons, a cultivator's Dharma treasure could crush Siegfried.

Yesterday, that gourd of Venti's gave Himeko a feeling more terrifying than Durandal herself.

But at the very least, Himeko reached a conclusion.

Ordinary S-rank Valkyries are evenly matched with grandmasters; who wins depends on luck.

Durandal-level Valkyries have surpassed grandmasters; whether they have surpassed terrestrial immortals is currently unknown.

But the vast majority of Valkyries rely on armor; weirdos like Durandal and Siegfried are the minority.

Removing technological armor, it's a head-on collision.

Rita against a master, Rita will definitely lose.

Their martial arts and cultivation belong to the mysterious side, emphasizing that great power belongs to oneself.

Valkyries against martial arts experts don't have an advantage.

They can play "bursting" and "sudden enlightenment" breakthroughs anytime, anywhere. According to novels, breaking through in battle is a common occurrence.

In the eyes of people on the technological side, this is playing dirty.

You can't expect the armor to awaken as a silicon-based life form while fighting and play a "deus ex machina," right?

It's not like everyone has a Spark.

Similarly, in the eyes of the mysterious side, the power I worked so hard to cultivate for so long, you suddenly wear armor, and an ordinary person becomes a strong person.

This is also playing dirty.

Therefore, the mysterious side and the technological side have always been at odds.

But this is not a problem Himeko needs to think about.

Martial arts...

can make human life evolve, and physical fitness can reach a strength that surpasses it.

If Valkyries can cultivate martial arts, A-rank Valkyries wearing armor might not be unable to fight a Herrscher.

At the very least, a Herrscher like Wendy would be beaten without a sound.

Cultivating immortality is indeed very strong, which can be said to be a level Himeko didn't dare to imagine. Cultivating martial arts, Honkai is just a little brother.

The matter of civilization getting stronger and Honkai getting stronger is also a joke.

The mysterious side getting stronger, what does it have to do with your technological side?

Even if Honkai targets the mysterious side, that is targeting cultivators. Cultivators are all face-conscious and protective of their own.

If Honkai dares to do this, Jiang Yan will go to the Imaginary Tree to uproot the willow tree in minutes.

In the technological world, killing one's parents is a blood feud. In the mysterious side, besides killing one's parents being a blood feud, slapping someone in the face, making them lose face...

that is even more of a blood feud.

Arrogant cultivators are quite petty.

338. Himeko facing a fierce beast attack for the first time

Cultivating immortality is very strong, but...

it doesn't have universal significance.

Listening to Aetheris, nearly 10 million people participated in the assessment, and only 1.3 million passed the initial screening.

Among these 1.3 million, only a dozen joined the inner sect, over 900 in the outer sect, and thousands of chore disciples.

The rest, except for those lucky enough to stay and practice martial arts, all left Shushan with full hearts of sadness.

This kind of screening basically eliminated 99.9% of the people in the world.

The Honkai world has a large population, but under the Great Honkai, many also died.

Now the population is probably less than 4 or 5 billion.

With so many people, those who can cultivate immortality, at most a few tens of thousands, is probably not easy.

Then the rest shouldn't live?

Eliminated by the era?

But martial arts are different.

Martial arts have extremely strong universal significance; as long as there is spiritual energy, one can cultivate martial arts.

And spiritual energy, even in the technological world, exists, just maybe with other names.

For example, dark energy, etc.

If martial arts can be introduced to the Honkai world...

Valkyries cultivating to innate, wearing armor, are absolutely all human-shaped Honkai beasts.

And not ordinary lower-level Honkai beasts.

Himeko couldn't even imagine, if Rita cultivated to terrestrial immortal, wore God-Slaying armor, and took the Divine Key...

Maybe she alone could press and beat Sirin at her peak.

Of course, wanting to kill is still a bit troublesome; after all, Sirin's authority of the Imaginary Space is very troublesome.

But thinking about it, Rita, a Valkyrie who became the pinnacle of all Valkyries in the Honkai world.

Although known as the S-rank floor tile.

But her aptitude is obviously also peerless.

It's impossible not to cultivate immortality and go to martial arts.

Thinking again, when she cultivates to the middle stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, she can solve the Honkai when she goes back.

Then martial arts, it seems the importance is not very high.
