I am a hero of the former civilization.

A Herrscher is about to be born, but who will it be?

No one knows the answer. According to the information from Moth of Fire, the so-called Herrscher is the apostle of Honkai, who will bestow powerful strength and authority upon a human, and this human is called the Herrscher vessel.

Aside from knowing that the carrier must have relatively high Honkai energy adaptability, everything else is more like opening a blind box, completely random.

It's impossible to guard against. There are billions of humans, and it's impossible to test their resistance one by one. Who knows who it could be, or rather, Ryan himself, who is one of the top-ranked Herrscher carriers in the Flamemoth database.

“He’s just a monster, who cares who he is.” Ryan knew that there was no way to save the Herrschers of the previous civilization. They could have personalities, but they had no humanity.

Just like a certain all-powerful anal-bursting machine, no matter how beautiful the wish is, it will be twisted into a destructive result. In other words, the moment one becomes a Herrscher, one is no longer human.

There's still time, let me have a bite of dessert first.

Ryan decisively headed towards the fishing village. His reason for coming here was simple: to eliminate the 'Vanguard' before the Herrscher arrives, especially the Mosaic, which was seriously injured and would never have come ashore if the Herrscher were not about to arrive.

The saying goes, "sharpen your spear at the last minute," and a heavily injured Ultimate Emperor-class Honkai Beast can serve as the best whetstone.

"If you get injured and escape from the deep sea, you won't be able to run away. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

When they were still a few kilometers from the village, Ryan suddenly stopped and saw the houses on the edge of the fishing village collapsing like building blocks, with huge monsters breaking out of the buildings.

The five-story-high chariot-class, the temple-class with its greatsword and shield, the Honkai Emperor floating in the air, and a colossal creature landing on the shore—it was like a silent army of monsters marching, ready to crush any enemy in its path.

The brakes have started to move, and the critical point is fast approaching.

Ryan could hear his heart pounding as he watched the monster army spread out in the torrential rain, dozens, no, hundreds of Honkai Beasts charging toward him.

The knights' hooves trampled through the mud and water, while the chariots pounded cracks into the concrete pavement. Compared to them, Ryan appeared incredibly small.

But the man remained standing in the rain like a javelin, silently counting in his mind. Amidst the muffled thunderous roar, he suddenly raised his head.

"Fire Moths, you used me once, now it's my turn to use you. Come on, let these monsters see what the light of civilization is!"

Wuwuwu——

Suddenly, a cluster of stars appeared in the sky, like fireworks during a festival, falling with long tails. A few seconds later, the gloomy, rainy day was illuminated by a series of bright lights.

Boom boom boom...

The earth trembled, a deafening roar filled the air, hundreds of missiles exploded, turning into countless fireballs, the torrential rain stopped for a moment, and shockwaves formed spheres in the rain curtain.

So beautiful.

From Ryan's perspective, the field before him seemed to have transformed into a shimmering pearl necklace, the creations of civilization radiating brilliant light, and the energy engulfing the monsters.

Honkai energy can interfere with electronic devices, but that doesn't matter now. If the accuracy increases from one meter to ten meters, then we'll use ten times the amount of ammunition. This round of bombardment by the Fire Moth fully demonstrates humanity's firepower.

No wonder the higher-ups were so calm. The devastating bombardment had already wiped out the two Herrschers, and even Ryan, standing in the eye of the storm, would not have been spared.

"As I expected, the Moths of Fire might resort to some tricks, but they can't just ignore it; otherwise, it wouldn't be dereliction of duty, but a crime." Ryan took a breath of the gunpowder-scented air, but knew it was nothing; they were just doing a favor.

Because the moment a Herrscher is born, the sudden surge in Honkai energy will create more companion beasts, and the ocean will also be destroyed.

"But at least, did my arrival change the fate of 100,000 people, or even a million?"

Ryan didn't know, nor did he investigate the result. He simply took off the strap, slapped it on the box, and with the sound of gears turning, a two-meter-long gun sprang out, which he casually grasped in his palm.

A cold, delicate touch came from his palm. Ryan glanced at it and saw that the spear, made of overpressure alloy, was entirely silver. Mebius clearly had no interest in adding any decorations or patterns.

It's simple, yet deadly.

"Good gun." Ryan nodded with satisfaction, knowing that the materials were genuine, and gently poked it in his palm.

woo-

The spear spun, splashing up fine raindrops, before being firmly grasped again. The foot-long spear tip lightly touched the ground, and then Ryan charged forward in an instant.

ziz......

The gun tip sparked brilliantly as it rubbed against the concrete ground, like a bolt of lightning extending forward into the swirling smoke and dust.

The missile barrage had barely finished when an even more deadly warrior arrived. Ryan, stepping on the wreckage of the Honkai Beast, charged straight into the dust, only to be met with a massive fist.

A tank as tall as a five-story building was smashed down on it. Although its body was broken, it felt no pain or fear and was not affected in the battle at all.

Ryan charged forward, then suddenly leaned forward just before the fist reached his head, his spear grazing the ground and drawing a bright arc.

挑！

With pinpoint accuracy, the spear struck the low end of the fist, causing the giant hand to spring up. Before the chariot could react, the human had already swept between its legs, the silver spear like a knife, severing its two giant legs as easily as cutting butter.

Boom.

The tank lost its balance, causing the ground to tremble. Ryan, focused only on moving forward, casually stabbed several knights missing limbs, then suddenly stopped and thrust forward.

Ding!

Several cracks appeared on the great shield, and the temple creature slid several meters away in an instant. Ryan did not pursue it, but instead leaped up and saw several light blades emerge from the air, forming a vortex of light blades that shattered the spot where he had just been standing.

The Honkai Emperor emerged, but before it could lock onto Ryan, a terrifying wind pressure descended from above. It quickly gathered two light blades to block the attack.

boom--

The energy collided, and Ryan's Honkai energy was clearly much stronger. The spear pierced through the light blade and embedded itself in his chest cavity. Then, ignoring the opponent's counterattack, he twisted his waist and swung it horizontally.

sizzle.

The suddenly appearing vortex of sword blades tore the Honkai Emperor apart, and before the attacking creature could even think about how it had hit its own kind, the silver spear had already pierced through the fragments and residual energy, going straight into its chest cavity.

Ryan lunged forward, piercing through the entire gun barrel, and as he drew near, his fist, hidden under his ribs, suddenly slammed out.

Inch by inch. Rock broken.

The fist struck the abdomen of the second Honkai Emperor, Honkai energy poured in, and just like shattering a rock, it instantly exploded into hundreds of fragments. At the same time as killing it, Ryan's speed did not decrease.

Ding.

The second explosion pierced directly into the temple's hard shield, then rammed against him like a battering ram, knocking over a dozen Honkai Beasts. Before these monsters could even get up, the light blade had already fallen from the sky.

The sounds of flesh being sliced ​​echoed one after another. The Honkai Beast behind him could no longer get up. Ryan steadied himself, gripped the butt of his spear, and thrust it upwards with a fierce motion.

Up.

The nearly four-meter-tall steel monster took to the air, swinging its limbs as it watched the enemy take advantage of the gap to kill several of its kind. When it landed, Ryan had been waiting for it.

The spear was wrapped around his neck, and as his body turned, he finally gripped the spear with both hands and slammed it down hard.

go with!

thump—

The rain curtain was blasted open, creating a hole. The lower-ranked Honkai Beast, known for its defensive capabilities, flew out like a cannonball and crashed into another, even larger tank-type beast.

The relatively intact tank lowered its head, seeing that its chest was completely shattered, with a lump of wreckage deeply embedded inside.

The giant beast, known for its slow pace, paused for a moment, its scarlet eyes slowly rising to see the human standing on its head, its indifferent gaze as if looking at a corpse.

Boom...

With a heavy thud, the behemoth kicked up a cloud of dust. Ryan stood steadily on the corpse, looking up ahead.

The sky was overcast, a torrential downpour was pouring down, and the sea was surging with waves. A three-clawed crab was standing on the dock, its shell riddled with holes and only one eye remaining.

Even with the Honkai Core, a few days wouldn't be enough for it to recover from its injuries. It stared at the powerful and familiar enemy in front of it with its single eye.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." The man landed lightly and thrust his spear into the corpse behind him with a backhand motion.

"I'll send you on your way now."

Chapter Fifty-Two: The Thunder Finally Arrives! (Two-in-One)

The rain poured down, but unfortunately the Honkai Beasts didn't have any blood, otherwise there would have been rivers of blood. Even so, the air was filled with a sense of destruction.

Behind Ryan were ruins and countless bullet craters, with hundreds of Honkai Beast corpses filling the area. In front of him was a vast ocean and Emperor-class Honkai Beasts that had just stepped ashore.

Rain poured down on his head. Ryan stood quietly, watching every move of the Moshachi in front of him. Unfortunately, the Honkai Beasts had no intelligence and were not even surprised by the arrival of the enemy.

Wow...

The torrential rain, like a curtain, blurred everything around him. Rain streamed down his forehead, brushing past Ryan's suddenly contracting pupils.

It's gone. That huge Honkai Beast just vanished from my sight, no, it disappeared from all my senses.

Such a strange situation would instinctively startle anyone, but Ryan was already on guard when facing Mosaic for the second time.

Mind control, no, consciousness distortion?

Without a second thought, he planted his feet firmly into the ground, gripped the gun handle, and swung it upwards with a sharp motion.

The tank-like corpse, as tall as a four-story building, was thrown into the air, and then, in the next moment, turned red like a boiled lobster.

Shila-

Like a giant wielding a greatsword, a surge of energy pierced through the corpse, cleanly slicing an entire cliff in two, causing tens of tons of boulders to fall and create a towering spray of water.

However, this brief moment of obstruction was enough. Ryan jumped back and looked at the lava-like ground in front of him, his brows furrowing involuntarily.

Ranged attacks are very powerful; if you're even a step too slow, you won't even be able to find a complete corpse.

The energy was terrifying. Ryan didn't want to get hit, so he didn't dare to stop. He first took several steps to the side, and then they all changed direction.

call out--

A smaller, faster beam of light swept past the toes, cleaving a Temple creature's corpse in two with a cut as smooth as a laser pointer.

The location of the ray... is over there!

Before his toes even touched the ground, Honkai energy had already formed a flat 'pavement' on the muddy water. Ryan stomped hard, tearing a hole in the rain curtain, and instantly appeared in front of him.

No! ?

There was nothing beside the cliff. Without thinking, he rolled forward, his hand hidden under his ribs suddenly clenching into a fist.

Swah——

The intense heat cut through his back, causing a burning pain in his muscles, but Ryan completely ignored the pain and focused only on feeling the feedback from afar.

Out of stock?

The falling beam of light did not collide with any energy, proving that the attack hit the air completely. He braced himself on the ground and sprang up instantly, running forward while his brain was working at full speed.

Ryan is not a berserker. When he encounters an evenly matched opponent, he becomes extremely calm, analyzing the information he gathers one by one, as if he were conducting scientific research.

Using imaginary space to move? No, the attack was launched simultaneously; it couldn't possibly move that fast.

Ryan quickly dismissed the idea, and considering the previous intelligence, there was only one answer—
