My outrageous life in Honkai Impact 3

Seeing herself amidst ruins, Ling looked around curiously. Upon seeing the Honkai Beast in front of her, she eagerly asked, "Big brother, did you call me out to fight monsters?"

"That's right, go forth, my Stand user!"

"What the hell is a Stand user?!"

Ling stomped her foot in anger, but still pouted and stepped forward, raising her hand to summon several balls of flame, and began to seriously fight the enemy.

Five flames hovered behind Ling. A crimson flame ignited at Ling's fingertip, pointing at the Honkai Beast horde. The flames behind her continuously struck and exploded on the Honkai Beasts, and the shields in front of the Temple-class Honkai Beasts were quickly engulfed in flames.

"Disperse!"

With a soft shout from Ling, the flames on the shield spread to the entire body of the Honkai Beast. The Honkai Beast howled incessantly as it was burned, and was eventually consumed by the flames.

"Ling, this is a bit scary."

Looking at the still-burning wreckage, Ling blew out the fire in her hand and gave Luo Chen a playful smile.

"Of course, after all, I am a Herrscher, so Honkai Beasts and the like are pretty easy for me."

"Then I'll have it easy from now on."

"Big brother, you're overthinking it. Unless there are special circumstances, I won't take action at other times."

"Ah? Why?"

"It's all so that my older brother won't become a cripple."

Ling gave a soft snort, returned to the bracelet, and instructed Luo Chen, "Big brother, I won't come out to join the fun. Good luck!"

"Ok."

Luo Chen was only joking about having Ling play in his place. Seeing that Ling had run back on her own, Luo Chen also started heading back to the camp.

Upon returning to the camp, the staff handed the terminal back to Luo Chen and led him to a designated resting location.

As Luo Chen sat in the tent communicating with Himeko via a terminal, the arguing noises outside drew him out.

"Why won't they let us go back! My money is still at home!"

A group of people gathered in front of the police line. The man in the lead pointed at the Valkyrie standing opposite him and shouted, "You're not trying to steal my money, are you?!"

The man glared fiercely at the Valkyrie, but his eyes kept darting to a certain part of her body.

"Sir, the entire city is currently shrouded in collapse, and ordinary people cannot walk inside."

"How could you do that? That's definitely your excuse."

The man kept shouting, and the people behind him, under his influence, kept pressuring the Valkyrie troops.

Seeing that his goal was about to be achieved, the man reached out to grab the Valkyrie's arm, a slight look of apprehension flashing across his face, but was slapped back.

"Sir, please have some self-respect."

Luo Chen withdrew his hand, shook it with a look of disgust, and said coldly, "This staff member has already made it very clear that ordinary people like you cannot move around in here at all."

"who are you?"

The man glared at Luo Chen and said rudely, "What right do you have to interfere in my affairs?"

"In this case."

Luo Chen chuckled, beckoned to Kiana beside him, whispered something in her ear, and then Kiana ran away.

"Sir, you can enter the Honkai energy erosion area, but you have to sign a treaty."

"What treaty?"

Seeing Luo Chen agree, the man inwardly mocked him, and then he saw Kiana running over with a stack of papers in her arms.

Luo Chen took a copy, handed it to the man, and said, word by word, "Sir, as long as you sign this contract, you can go anywhere in the area ahead."

The man glanced at it casually and saw that it was a disclaimer, which made him look down on Luo Chen.

"Sign it and sign it."

The man took the pen from Luo Chen, signed his name, and handed it back to him, saying arrogantly, "Now can I leave?"

"Sir, please help yourself."

Luo Chen stepped aside, smiling at the man. The Valkyrie beside him felt sorry for him and leaned close to Luo Chen, asking softly, "Is this really okay?"

"He's willing to die, what can I do?"

Luo Chen watched the man gradually disappear into the distance and sneered, "In the end, it was greed that ruined him."

"What Valkyries? They're all idiots."

The man crossed the police line, constantly mocking the Valkyrie, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the city before him.

After walking for a short while, the man suddenly felt short of breath. As soon as he stopped, a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth.

The man tried to speak, but his vocal cords had been damaged by Honkai energy, and he couldn't make a sound.

The man felt his consciousness fading and his body decaying, so he quickly turned around to seek help.

The next second, the man felt dizzy and then saw his own body and Luo Chen's indifferent face.

Looking at the headless corpse in front of him, Luo Chen swung his sword to wipe away the bloodstains on the blade, and then used flames to burn the corpse to ashes.

After doing all this, Luo Chen returned to the crowd, his gray eyes devoid of any warmth, and slowly said, "Now, who else wants to go in? I'll collect your corpses for free."

Ordinary people trembled with fear at Luo Chen's presence, and the huge crowd instantly scattered, with everyone fleeing in all directions, no longer daring to face Luo Chen.

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Not only ordinary people, but even the Valkyries present were startled by Luo Chen's actions, one of them said with concern.

"What's wrong with him? He brought this on himself."

Luo Chen sheathed his sword and said indifferently, "Do you have any better ideas?"

Seeing that everyone remained silent, Luo Chen continued, "What we need now is to make an example of them; a policy of appeasement will not work on those rotten people."

"Besides..."

At this point, Luo Chen smiled, looking at the still-burning wreckage not far away, and said in a cold tone, "I don't think I'm any kind of good person."

Chapter 54 The Strange Uses of Jizo's Soul

Back in the tent, Luo Chen sat silently in a chair, drinking water one cup after another, which made the others who had returned to rest nearby somewhat worried.

"Chen, are you alright?"

Mei asked softly. Although she didn't think there was anything wrong with Luo Chen's actions just now, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

"fine."

Luo Chen put down his teacup and looked at Mei gently: "I was just thinking about the problems in the city."

"what is the problem?"

Lilith wiped her sniper rifle and looked up at Luo Chen: "Speaking of which, there seems to be a problem. When Yuno and I were fighting monsters, we felt that there were a lot of Honkai Beasts here, and we almost couldn't handle them."

"That's right, I feel there's something wrong with the concentration of Honkai energy in this city."

Luo Chen stood up from his chair, pulled up a city map, and explained to the group: "I asked Himeko to investigate. The concentration of Honkai energy in this city has reached two-thirds of that of a Herrscher, and most of it is concentrated near a building in the northwest of the city."

"Is it possible that he is a pseudo-Herrscher?"

Yuno placed her hand on her heart, sensing the Honkai energy nearby.

"possible."

Just then, Luo Chen's terminal rang, and Ji Zi's communication came through.

"Himeko-sensei, what's wrong?"

Seeing Himeko's serious expression, Luo Chen knew he was in trouble and quickly asked.

"Luo Chen, get to the northwest of the city quickly. I've marked the location for you. I've already sent someone to deliver your armor."

"Himeko-sensei, it can't be..."

"It's just as you think. The Hyperion has detected that the Honkai energy at the location you reported is constantly gathering, and it has been confirmed that a pseudo-Herrscher has been born."

"I understand."

Luo Chen hung up the call, his face grim, and told Mei and the others to stay put before hurriedly leaving the tent.

"Luo Chen, here's your armor."

When the Valkyrie on the Hyperion saw Luo Chen appear, she opened a box that was placed to the side, inside which was Luo Chen's armor.

"Thank you."

Luo Chen dressed himself neatly, activated the navigation system on his armor, and sped toward his destination.

"Major Himeko, Luo Chen has set off for the target location and is expected to arrive within five minutes."

"understood."

Himeko watched Luo Chen rapidly advancing on the screen and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"How's the situation with the pseudo-heroes?"

"The Honkai energy is still gathering, and it is estimated that it will be fully condensed by the time Luo Chen arrives."

"Monitor the ground conditions at all times, preheat all the Hyperion cannons, and help Luo Chen eliminate the pseudo-Herrscher."
