"Now, let's start the second round."
Chapter 143 Forest Fireboy and Watergirl
Himeko moved forward, spun around quickly, jumped up and swung her sword downwards, flames swirling around her like a cloud of fire.
"The flames have burned it all away!"
Flames exploded, and Rita felt as if the air around her had been ignited, making it difficult to breathe.
Rita activated her Honkai energy, covering the surface of her armor with frost, which then flew outwards, neutralizing Himeko's flames.
"Is Himeko-sensei that strong?"
Mei and Yuno hid behind a wall in the distance, peeking out to watch the battlefield. Yuno looked at Himeko's heroic figure, her eyes seemingly sparkling.
"Himeko-sensei is very strong, she just hasn't shown it before."
Himeko continued her advance, wielding her Xuanyuan Sword, forcing Rita to defend for the time being.
"You didn't use your full strength, did you?"
Himeko was pushed back by Rita, but she stood firm and stared at Rita, absolutely certain that Rita hadn't used her full strength.
"How could that be? Rita is giving her all to Himeko-san."
"is it?"
Himeko chuckled, gripping the Xuanyuan Sword with both hands and standing before it, pouring Honkai energy into it. Three orbs of different colors appeared on the Xuanyuan Sword—frost, flame, and lightning—and flew towards Rita together.
The knight's phantom raised his scythe high and slashed through three attacks. Although he managed to block them, the scythe in his hand was shattered, leaving only the shaft.
Himeko rushed over the moment the explosion occurred, slashing horizontally at Rita with the Xuanyuan Sword. Rita's scythe blocked the Xuanyuan Sword, and the two became entangled in battle again.
"Lady Rita, our attempt to stop her failed, and Lady Theresa escaped."
After defeating Himeko once again, Rita received a message in her earpiece that the mission had failed.
"I understand. Continue to follow, I'll be there in a bit."
"It seems our contest is coming to an end, Miss Himeko."
Rita, with her signature smile, looked at Himeko, glanced at the two huddled in the corner, used Honkai energy to form a huge block of ice and explode it to block their view, then left first.
Sparks flew from the Xuanyuan Sword as Himeko blocked the explosion with a single strike. Looking at the empty ground, she waved to the two behind her.
"Himeko-sensei, you're amazing! That's an S-rank Valkyrie, and you just chased her away like that!"
Yuno came over and showered Himeko with compliments. Himeko gently tapped her head and chuckled, "Where did you learn to flatter like that? Rita just didn't want to fight anymore, that's why she left. Besides, it's not certain who would win if they really fought."
"You still won."
"Alright, enough with the banter, we should head back now."
……
Theresa and Bronya forcefully broke through the defenses of the three, including Grin, and escaped with the humanoid machine for a while. Seeing that there were no pursuers behind them, they rested for a while.
"Headmaster, Professor Himeko just sent a message saying that she has picked up Mei and the others and is now heading to the Hyperion."
"That's good, let's hurry back."
"I think you can't go anywhere right now."
A cold voice came from behind. Theresa turned around warily and found a woman with green hair and an extremely perfect figure standing behind her, with a particularly strange expression on her face.
"who are you?"
Theresa picked up Judas and was shocked by the appearance of Mebius, who had managed to approach her without her knowledge.
"You don't need to know right now."
Mebius responded indifferently, showing no interest in matters unrelated to Luo Chen, even if the person standing opposite her was someone comparable to a fusion warrior.
"I just came to see how the things Gray Serpent left behind are doing now."
"You know Gray Snake? Who exactly are you?"
Theresa grew increasingly nervous. Although she couldn't sense any Honkai energy emanating from Mebius, an inexplicable sense of oppression emanated from him, forcing her to be cautious.
"That's why I said I don't like communicating with others. Don't they all understand what I'm saying?"
Mebius's serpentine eyes revealed a look of disdain. If that Valkyrie of destiny hadn't arrived so slowly, he wouldn't have come out to help her.
Mebius slowly raised one hand, and several sharp spikes emerged from the ground, catching the two off guard.
"It's really troublesome that this body can't be deliberately destroyed."
Seeing that the two had dodged, Mebius yawned and continued to use his spikes to block their movement.
"Keep running. I want to see where your limits are."
Mebius looked at Theresa and the Judas in her hand with great interest. She had been tied up with this thing before. All she wanted to do was study him while he was sleeping. Why did she always have to tie her up with Judas? Especially since she was always hung on the laboratory door. Thinking about it now, it was really disgusting.
"The lab rat is still in the Sea of Quanta and doesn't remember anything from before. It's so boring! I have to go back to Paradise after Kevin comes back. I don't know when he'll be able to come in."
Thinking of this, Mebius increased his strength, thrusting out several more sharp spikes, putting even more pressure on Theresa.
"There's no other way, Judas, unfold!"
Theresa threw Judas to the ground, and several chains flew toward Möbius, while she herself charged forward with a spear.
"It was even modified?"
Mebius was intrigued. After dodging the chains, he saw Theresa attacking him. He grabbed her wrist with one hand, removed the spear, and threw Theresa back.
"Interesting, they actually made such a change."
Mebius picked up the spear, examined it closely, and then thrust it into the floor in front of Theresa, tilting his head to the right as if he were speaking to someone.
"It's finally here. I've been waiting for so long."
"Excuse me, ma'am."
Rita was not surprised at all by Mebius's presence, because Otto had said before he left that someone would be helping them from the shadows.
"No need for formalities. Now that you're here, I should be going."
Mebius crossed his arms, gave Theresa one last look, and left the scene, the spikes disappearing with him.
"Rita, you're fast! Where are Himeko and the others?"
"Lady Theresa, please rest assured, Miss Himeko is fine. She was just held back by some trivial matters."
Now that she was close enough to the humanoid machine, Rita decided to take direct action. She pulled out an electronic prosthetic eye and used it to issue the highest command.
"I have received the highest command. Please issue the order."
The device on the humanoid head flashed red, the voice turned cold, and it looked at the electronic prosthetic eye on Rita's hand.
"Transfer all files and format the system."
"Instructions received, in progress... Completed."
Theresa tried to stop her, but Rita was too fast. By the time Theresa reached the humanoid machine, the lights on its head had dimmed, and it collapsed to the ground, powerless.
"Rita, you...!"
"Now that you have the items, Rita should take her leave."
Rita dodged Bronya's missile, ignored the angry Theresa, said goodbye to them, threw a smoke grenade, and left.
"Don't even think about running away!"
Theresa raised Judas high and threw him, but missed completely. She saw no trace of him after passing through the smoke, and stomped her feet in anger.
"Dean, what should we do?"
Heavy Bunny followed behind Bronya, carrying the humanoid robot. Theresa scratched her not-so-bright head and looked at the humanoid robot.
"There's no other way but to take her back first and see if the doctor has any ideas."
Chapter 144 Don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person
Today was another sunny day in Sky City. Because it was the weekend, the streets were bustling with people, filled with an atmosphere of freedom and joy.
Kiana, wearing a baseball cap and a coat, carefully blended into the crowd. Although Destiny's pursuit of her had weakened, it was only on the surface; she had already escaped several times in secret.
Because of her status as a wanted criminal, she couldn't do a normal job, so Kiana had to go back to her old profession and become a Honkai Hunter.
Kiana was able to make ends meet with the small amounts of money she earned from the black market, which made her quite content.
For some reason, Tianming's pursuit of her seems to have weakened in the past few days; she hasn't seen any of Tianming's people in the vicinity these past few days.
Kiana bought several bags of bread and a bottle of mineral water from the supermarket. Carrying the bags, she wandered aimlessly down the street. She had been working tirelessly to quell the Honkai in Sky City recently.
"Miss, do you have a moment now? I have a few questions for you."
Kiana felt a tap on her shoulder, and her body tensed instantly. She thought it was someone from the Destiny, but upon closer inspection, she realized it was impossible.
Turning around, Kiana saw a beautiful woman with white hair smiling at her. The friendliness emanating from her made Kiana want to get closer.
"Do I know you?"
Out of caution, Kiana kept a certain distance from her, in case she needed to escape.
"I don't know you, but I do know you. Kiana Kaslana, right?"
Upon hearing this, Kiana prepared to run away, instinctively assuming that the woman was there to capture her, even though she couldn't sense any Honkai energy from her.
