"Why have you been keeping a long face ever since you saw me? Have I offended you in some way?"
"No, not at all." Luo Chen's expression was serious. "I just didn't expect you to show up so quickly."
After saying that, Luo Chen silently added, "Snake."
"It seems my appearance has surprised you greatly." The man bowed and began to introduce himself: "Then you must already know my name. But let me introduce myself anyway, Gray Serpent, that's my name."
"Are you behind all these strange things happening in Canghai City lately?"
"If it's Honkai energy appearing everywhere, then that's my doing."
"why?"
"I cannot tell you that."
Gray Serpent stopped the device behind him, took out a black crystal about half the size of his palm, put it in his pocket, and said to Luo Chen, "Now that I have achieved my goal, I will not stay here any longer. Have a good time, you two."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wall behind Gray Serpent suddenly collapsed, and two black mechs emerged from it, firing shells directly at Luo Chen.
"I go!"
Luo Chen dodged the attack using his ethereal ability, pointed his knife at the gray snake, and shouted angrily, "Gray Snake! Come at me if you dare! I'll chop you into pieces!"
"Ah, you are quite the joker."
Gray Snake, holding a gun he pulled out from who-knows-where, destroyed the device and silently retreated to the windowsill behind him. The mechanical eyes glowed red.
"Then, Mr. Luo Chen, I look forward to seeing you again."
With that, the gray snake jumped out of the window.
"and many more!"
Just as Luo Chen was about to give chase, the walls on both sides collapsed simultaneously, and four more mechs emerged from the dust, unleashing a barrage of attacks on Luo Chen's position.
"What deep grudge do you have against me?!"
Luo Chen used his ethereal ability to rush straight to the first mecha, swung his sword at it, and after it was blocked, he immediately complained, "This thing from the pre-civilization is a bit too tough!"
"Himura-neechan, please help!"
"understood."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Chen saw a crimson blade light flash towards him, cleaving the mecha beside him in two. The next second, Hisumura Ori appeared in front of another mecha, her crimson pupils gleaming with coldness. She sheathed her katana in a drawing stance, and red Honkai energy emanated from her body.
"The ultimate technique of Flying Sword Style: Heavenly Dragon Flash".
Himura Ori charged forward, drawing her katana and unleashing a Honkai-infused strike that cleaved the mecha from bottom to top, slicing it through the wall behind it and sending it flying.
"I think I transmigrated into Honkai Impact 3, so why is there a female version of Kenshin?!"
Looking at the brown-haired woman not far away, Luo Chen kept complaining in his heart. Just as he was about to exert force with his hand, he remembered that he seemed to have a cheat.
"Don't I have Jizo Mitama? It shouldn't be a problem to cheat secretly."
With that thought in mind, Luo Chen immediately manipulated the Jizo Soul to invade the mecha's system, paralyzing it and then stabbing it into the control room, destroying the circuit board before starting to look for the next victim.
"It's done."
Luo Chen sheathed his sword, looked at the wreckage and empty walls, and stretched.
"If you let your guard down like this before you've even ensured safety, there will be problems."
Himura Ori pulled the sword from the mecha, turned around and saw Luo Chen's relieved expression, and reminded him.
"Don't worry, Himura-neechan. As things stand, that gray snake probably didn't leave any traps."
“Okay.” Himura Ori shrugged. “That guy called Gray Snake seemed to have taken something out of the device before he left.”
"I don't know, it looks like a crystal."
"Never mind, let's go back and report to the vice-captain first. Let's go."
"Good."
……
"Number 1046, have you completed the task assigned to you?"
In a dark space, the golden gray snake spoke to itself opposite it.
"finished."
Gray Snake opened the briefcase he was carrying, showing the black crystal inside, then closed the briefcase and handed it to Golden Snake.
"However, there is one thing I don't understand."
"what's up?"
"Why is the Serpent Lord making us constantly expose our existence in the recent collection?"
"You should be very clear about this."
"Yeah, I understand."
Chapter 29 Pre-Civilization Relics
Luo Chen and Hisumura returned to the base and reported the situation to Golin. Golin then reported it to headquarters. Luo Chen then asked Golin to let him go to St. Freya, but his request was refused.
"Who told you we came here just for this one mission?"
Gelin looked at Luo Chen with a smile: "Besides this matter, there is actually something more important that we came to Canghai City this time."
"what is that?"
"A pre-civilization site has been discovered on the outskirts of Canghai City, so headquarters has sent us to explore it."
"What about other forces?"
"Right now, only Anti-Entropy dares to compete with our Destiny for things. But don't worry, this site was excavated by our Destiny team, and outsiders have no way of knowing about it."
"Then why did you bring me along?"
“I don’t know about that.” Gelin shook her head and handed the documents on the table to Luo Chen: “Take a look, we’ll leave tomorrow.”
"Ok."
……
Destiny Headquarters
Amber walked into the bishop's office carrying a stack of documents. Seeing Otto playing a game, she went over and reminded him, "Your Excellency, it's working hours now."
"One last push. Ah! Amber! Why are you pulling my power cord?!"
Amber expressionlessly tossed the thread on the floor, placed the file on Otto's desk, and picked up the top one, handing it to him.
"We have news about the second squad of the Undying Blade in Canghai City."
"Oh? Let me take a look."
Otto took the document, looked at its contents, and chuckled, "Grey Serpent? It seems some people can't hold back any longer."
"Amber, you can go out now. I'll approve these documents."
"Your Excellency, you are busy, I'll head out now."
After Amber left, Otto tossed the documents aside, stared at a yellowed book on the edge of the table, and rested his head on his hand, lost in thought.
"We'll be able to meet soon."
……
"By the way, why is this ruin located in a forest?"
Luo Chen walked through the forest and asked the others a question.
"Actually, I don't know much about this either."
Gelin replied, then turned to look at Luo Chen: "Xiao Chen, don't lose sight of them."
"understood."
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the group arrived at the camp where Destiny was stationed. After a brief exchange with the stationed Valkyries, Golin led the group to the entrance of the ruins.
"This is the entrance?"
Looking at the stone gate-like entrance in front of him, Luo Chen's face was filled with curiosity.
“That’s right.” A staff member said, “Don’t be fooled by its stone door appearance. This thing is actually made of soul steel and covered with Honkai energy.”
Listening to the staff's explanation, Luo Chen went to the door, knocked on it, and withdrew his hand after confirming that it was Soul Steel.
"So how do we get in?"
"The first option was to blow it up, but headquarters believed that the door still had research value and that there might be some defense system inside. So after discussion, we finally decided to try hacking the system to crack the code."
"Ah this..."
Luo Chen was speechless. He thought it was some high-level method, but it turned out to be hacking.
"Don't worry!" The staff member pushed up his glasses and said confidently to everyone, "The system on this door has been 95% broken. Just wait a little longer."
Just as the staff were talking, the technician next to them shouted to the group: "Team leader, we've cracked it, but there's still one more layer. We can't crack the equipment here!"
"What can we do? It takes at least seven or eight hours to transport equipment from headquarters to installation and then to start operation. Too much time is wasted."
"How about we smash it open?"
