Collapse: Start as a Mimic Herrscher

"Ahem, so where am I?" Lu Ren looked around blankly. This was a cramped little room with only a narrow window providing light for the room, so there was a large incandescent lamp hanging from the ceiling.

With the help of the incandescent lamp, Lu Ren found that the place was in a mess, as if no one had cleaned it up for a long time. His hands were tied behind his back, and the binding was very tight. Lu Ren needed to use a little strength to break free.

Lu Ren did not free his hands immediately, but thought it would be a better idea to wait and see. After all, he had no memory of being here, and who knew what the person who tied him here had done to cause Lu Ren to fail. It was always better to be careful.

"Tongzi, why am I here?" Since he had nothing to do anyway, Lu Ren might as well take this opportunity to find out what had happened before.

The system didn't respond to Lu Ren for a long time, which made him doubt whether he had entered into some illusion or dream again.

"Host, you finally woke up. It seems like you've been like this many times." The system said with concern, while still making fun of him.

Lu Ren's mouth twitched, "Don't complain now, answer my question just now."

The system said: "This is a long story, so I will make it short... Host, look in front of you!"

The system was halfway through its words when it suddenly asked Lu Ren to pay attention to what was in front of it. Lu Ren was confused for a moment, but when he smelled a fishy odor, he immediately understood what the system said.

He rolled to the side suddenly and narrowly avoided the sickle which was as big as his head. If it had been placed on his neck, it would have been able to cut off his head with great efficiency.

Lu Ren turned around and saw that it was indeed a death warrior. It was really strange. Why did he meet a death warrior again out of the blue? Shouldn't he be enjoying his vacation? What was the difference between being chased and hacked by a death warrior here and before?

This time, Lu Ren immediately took out the purple sword, and with a backhand upward strike, he knocked the sickle of the assassin away, causing it to embed in the ceiling.

A burst of electric sparks flashed, and the lights in the room suddenly dimmed, and everything around became unclear.

This was the result of Lu Ren's sickle hitting the incandescent lamp, but the darkness could not stop Lu Ren's attack.

After losing her weapon, the assassin was unable to withstand Lu Ren's subsequent sword strikes, and soon she turned into Shang Yang. The scene was actually quite funny.

"Wow, host, you divided her into five equal parts. How much hatred and resentment do you have?" said the system.

Lu Ren rolled his eyes at the system. "If you open your eyes and find yourself in an unfamiliar place, and you were on vacation before, then you will feel the same as I do."

"I don't understand. I'm playing the spot removal game." said the system.

"What? I don't understand. You should be punished!"

"No, no, no, host, let's go out first. Don't you think the smell in this room is unpleasant?" The system changed the subject.

Lu Ren glanced around the room a few times, still without any impression. He continued with the system's words, "Maybe my nose has lost a lot of sensitivity since I came out of the sewer. Now I can't smell anything."

Then he pushed open the door and walked out, and unexpectedly found that they were in the room on the top floor. It was about seventy or eighty meters from here to the ground. What's more important was that the door downstairs was locked. He didn't have the key and was still trapped here.

Lu Ren tried to pat the locked iron door, as if he could break it down and leave.

It wasn't a good idea to just wander around outside aimlessly, as it seemed like a waste of time. He still wanted to figure out what had happened that led him here.

"Tongzi, please continue." Lu Ren said while sitting at the stairs.

"Okay, actually..." the system explained.

"Squad leader, squad leader, squad leader!" Someone was shouting in Fu Hua's ear. If someone did this on a normal day, she would have already used an inch-force blow to break the person's heart.

It is not good to disturb others, especially when it is nothing important. It is an even greater sin.

Fu Hua looked at the person who was calling her and found that it was Kiana who was calling her, so it was okay.

Fu Hua looked at Kiana's expression of wanting to say something but not being able to, and asked in confusion: "Well, Kiana, what's wrong with you?"

Kiana pointed at Theresa and Lu Ren and said, "Class monitor, why don't you stop Auntie? She looks like she wants to tear Lu Ren into pieces and throw him into the hot pot to cook him."

"Kiana, what you said is too exaggerated, but it's strange that you actually care about Lu Ren."

Fu Hua recalled how Lu Ren and Qiana interacted with each other in their daily lives. They were the kind of people who would gloat and laugh all day long when they saw the other person in trouble.

But now Kiana is worried about Lu Ren. It seems that the complexity and diversity of human nature really needs no further explanation.

"No, I'm not worried about Lu Ren. I'm just worried that my aunt won't get any benefits from Lu Ren. She's in her forties or fifties and can't stand such a torment." Kiana shook her head.

"..." Fu Hua suddenly felt like she didn't know what to say next.

"Indeed, I think it will be very risky for the school principal to face Lu Ren." Bronya walked to Kiana's side. The two of them usually had difficulty in reaching a consensus, but this time they had the same opinion.

"No way, the principal is an S-class Valkyrie. I don't think Lu Ren can get the upper hand." Qin Suyi came over and said in disbelief. Although Lu Ren was powerful, Qin Suyi could clearly feel that Lu Ren was at a disadvantage.

Moreover, she now knows a lot about the present era, and also knows that S-level Valkyries are one in a million, and their power is no less than that of the sea beast Qin Suyi saw before.

If Lu Ren heard this, he would probably shout, "Are you my disciple? How can you boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige?"

"That's Suyi, you haven't seen how Lu Ren fights against a Judgment-level Honkai Beast. I really think that Lu Ren is only rated A because his cultural level is a bit low, just a little bit higher than mine." Kiana complained in her heart.

Although she had never seen what an S-rank Valkyrie looked like, from the unusually thick Honkai energy on Lu Ren's body and the fact that he could return from the virtual space on his own, it was obvious that his strength was far beyond the A rating.

"Lu Ren will definitely win!" Kiana chose Lu Ren without hesitation, and Bronya on the side also nodded in approval.

"Hey, why are you all like this..." Qin Suyi was shocked. The 2-1 situation was now very unfavorable to her. At this moment, a strange desire to win was aroused, and she thought of a way to tie the score in a very short time.

Qin Suyi looked at Fu Hua with hope in her eyes, "Squad leader, do you think Lu Ren will win?"

Fu Hua always felt familiar when being stared at by Qin Suyi, especially today. When those eyes filled with help and trust looked at her, that familiar feeling almost overflowed from her mind.

They have only met for two or three months, but why do they feel so familiar with each other?

Fu Hua didn't dare to think too much, otherwise her head would start to hurt again like before, and that would be even more painful.
