“Ugh, Cecilia!” Alicia looked into Cecilia’s eyes as Otto ordered the rescue to stop. Her eyes held both sadness and struggle, like those of an angel who had seen the suffering of humanity.

"What a selfless and loving person, but people with such altruistic personalities probably won't have a good ending later in the story." Mebius glanced at Yaqing, but couldn't discern any expression on her face, before speaking with confidence.

"Do selfless and altruistic people really exist in reality?" Mei asked a profound question.

Yaqing and Mebius turned their heads almost simultaneously to look at Alicia, whose mouth looked like a hamster's.

"I'll be shy if everyone's looking at me like that?" Alicia turned her head to the side.

"By the way, why is it the Valkyrie squad fighting the Honkai on the front lines? There's only one male warrior, Siegfried?" Sakura asked, puzzled.

"Is there even a question? It's definitely for someone's benefit, for the sake of the box office." Möbius curled his lip.

"You could say it's for a part," Ya Qing said with a smile. "The bigger part will have to wait until the movie from the pre-civilization is released."

"Oh, so from what you're saying, you don't just want to create a movie, you also want to create an intellectual property?"

"What I originally wanted was a broken IP."

Chapter Thirty-Five: Burning Frozen Soil

"Over thousands of years, as human civilization has continued to develop, the Honkai Beasts have also been constantly evolving."

Otto's magnetic, gentlemanly voice served as the narrator, explaining the basic settings of the Honkai Beasts to the audience.

"By the second millennium AD, the Honkai Beasts were no longer what they used to be."

"The Honkai Beast's outer shell is extremely tough; ordinary bullets cannot cause it any damage. To penetrate this shell, at least an anti-tank rocket would be needed. However, even if the shell is penetrated, facing an Emperor-class Honkai Beast exceeding 10 meters in height—"

"Anti-tank rockets can only destroy a small part of its body."

Otto recounts the cruelty of the battle between humans and Honkai Beasts. According to Schicksal's statistics, 5000 fully armed soldiers are sacrificed for every Emperor-class Honkai Beast destroyed.

Therefore, using ordinary troops to deal with Honkai Beasts is tantamount to wasting lives and resources, but Schicksal can only deploy a mere 500 Valkyrie squads.

Given this significant numerical disadvantage, Otto's decision to carpet-bomb the Valkyrie squad with heavy weapons before they entered the Siberian snowfield was an extremely wise choice.

“Heavy weapons can kill Emperor-class Honkai Beasts.” Mebius leaned back in the front seat and said, “Then why not just develop a large number of weapons? Even the Herrscher of the Void would feel the danger of nuclear bombs.”

Everyone understood what Möbius meant: use nuclear bombs to half-dead and kill the Herrschers. However, there was a premise to this, and Möbius quickly realized something was wrong, saying, "What if the Herrschers behind us can forcibly control the nuclear missile silos?"

Yaqing was stunned, his eyes widened, and his expression towards Mei was laughable, but he quickly composed himself.

You're invincible, kid.

Yaqing thought to himself that he hadn't let Mei see the script either.

“How is that possible?” Möbius waved his hand. “If he can forcibly control nuclear missile silos, what is his power? Electromagnetic networks?”

Mebius pulled away the hem of Yaqing's clothes and continued, "Now that Sirin has obtained the core of the Herrscher of Thunder, she has not shown any ability to control the network. If there really is a Herrscher who can control nuclear missile silos, I, Mebius, can wear the clothes that Alicia gave me!"

Yaqing sighed helplessly, realizing that neither Mebius nor anyone else could stop him.

Alicia, on the contrary, became excited: "Really! Mebius, you've finally come to your senses and want to wear the little dress I gave you?~?"

Mei said with a half-smile, "Then Senior Mebius, don't go back on your word."

Mebius had already sensed something was wrong, but he still stubbornly insisted, "Absolutely not!"

The missiles traced arcs across the sky before raining down on the Siberian snowfields. After an hour of relentless bombardment, the arsenal of the Mandate of Heaven was nearly depleted, and the Siberian snowfields were completely reduced to burning permafrost.

At 12:2 noon on February 16, Otto ordered all Valkyrie squads to officially enter the Siberian snowfield.

Siegfried's northern forces soon encountered several hundred surviving Honkai Beasts. After a fierce battle, Siegfried seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky.

In mid-air, the scantily clad Bellalus rested his chin on his hand, looking indifferently at the people below, while energy gathered behind him.

The oppressive feeling brought by the massive electromagnetic sphere burst left Siegfried with no time to think. He ordered the entire team to retreat and pointed the gun of the Heavenly Fire Judgment directly at the dragon maiden in the sky.

Meanwhile, at the Tower of Babel, observing the battle in Bellares through the power of the Void, Sirin expressed disdain for Schicksal's missile bombardment, saying, "I can create as many Honkai Beasts as I want."

Just as Celine was about to continue her actions,

Suddenly noticing someone behind her, she turned around and saw Otto, Fu Hua, and Cheng Lixue approaching. She instantly understood that the so-called Valkyrie team was nothing more than a pawn used to distract her.

"Otto and his two companions actually arrived in front of the big boss like this?" Kevin couldn't understand Otto's actions.

“That’s confidence, it must be confidence in Fu Hua. After all, she’s lived from 50,000 years ago to the present civilization, and nobody knows what methods she has,” Mei analyzed.

"Confident that Fu Hua is no less powerful than the Herrscher...?"

"Ahua is actually this strong?!" Cat was shocked.

"Come and give this battlefield..."

"Cough cough."

Sakura's light cough interrupted Qianjie's spellcasting.

[Upon the arrival of Otto and his two companions, Sirin raised a confident and arrogant smile. She was feeling bored and remembered that they were the ones who had ruined her puppets. Sirin said that killing them would be much more interesting than slaughtering the puppets.]

"Make sure I have a good time! ☆"

Otto and Cheng Lixue remained silent.

After hearing the other party say that they should have fun, the honest Fu Hua obediently stepped forward as planned, his whole body glowing with a faint red light, and his gray-blue hair suddenly turning white.

"Let me fight her alone. You and Lixue, don't interfere."

Hearing this, Sirin, feeling looked down upon, angrily retorted, "You only beat that piece of trash Agata, don't get too cocky, you bug!"

Cheng Lixue was worried about whether Fu Hua could handle the Second Herrscher alone, and asked Bishop Otto, "Are we really not going to help our master?"

"She's enough on her own."

Otto was very confident in Fu Hua's combat abilities.

“Old friend, within the domain of Feathered Dust, you can unleash your strongest power.” Otto’s inner thoughts were revealed to the audience.

"When that power, lost for 500 years, returns to your body—"

"You are the strongest person in the world."

"Old fogey, your character is actually the strongest person in the world?!" Xiao Shi was already anxious before she could even finish her surprise. If Fu Hua was the strongest person in the world, how could she possibly surpass her?!

"The class monitor is so handsome!" Kiana's eyes sparkled.

"It's really starting to look more and more like a pufferfish." Bronya had a strange expression, but she didn't say it aloud.

"Squad leader, go! Beat that brat Xilin until she cries, make her pretend!"

Kiana's words made Bronya realize that she had been overthinking things.

“By the way, Fu Hua, what’s your character age, Ya Qing?” Theresa suddenly realized something was wrong. “Why did your grandfather in the story say that you’ve lost your power for 500 years? Are you really some kind of old monster?”

"Uh... Headmaster, it's not funny at all." The word "old monster" hurt the 20-year-old girl's heart.

"Sorry, sorry." Theresa realized she had misspoke and stuck out her tongue cutely.

"Ugh, Auntie, how old are you? Still trying to act cute!"

"Kiana!"

Chapter Thirty-Six: A Fifty Thousand Years-Old Wish

The next instant, Fu Hua threw a punch.

As Sirin watched Fu Hua attack her, the Herrscher's pride and confidence in her powers convinced her that no matter how fast or powerful the punch was, human strength could not penetrate the Herrscher's imaginary barrier.

But just a second later, Sirin realized she was wrong. What came at her was not her opponent's fist, but hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands of golden fist shadows, falling like a storm.

The vast majority of the fist shadows did not pass through the Herrscher barrier, but one in ten thousand fist shadows still managed to pass through the gaps in the imaginary barrier and hit Sirin without her having any chance to dodge.

The golden fist shadow struck Sirin's pretty face hard, shocking her greatly. In the instant she wavered, the void barrier collapsed, and countless fist shadows hit her body. Although the damage was not high, it enraged Sirin.

"Get out of my way!"

Driven by instinct, Sirin unleashed her most lethal close-range ability—the power of the Herrscher of Death. Everything within this black mist would be completely corroded, but it could not corrode the flames that had burned for five thousand years on Fu Hua's fists.

"Inch! Force! Open! Heaven!"

"Ahua is so strong! Even the six-core Herrscher couldn't fight back against Ahua!" Cat was excited, Cat was shocked, Cat was happy.

"These are the warriors of the pre-civilization. Their combat power completely crushes that of the current civilization. It's unimaginable how powerful the Herrscher of the End is, to be able to fight nine of them single-handedly without any chance of fighting back," Mei said solemnly.

“How pathetic, I only dare to dream,” Möbius said lazily.

Mei sighed helplessly, "Senior Mebius, there's no need for you to refute every single thing I say."
