Collapse: Start as a Mimic Herrscher

It was dark here, and the weak light could only illuminate a small area around the lamp.

There are countless such lights in this sewer, and together they create a terrifying atmosphere here. Even the people responsible for maintaining the sewer will try to reduce the number of times they go down here.

But now, there is a stranger here, and to us he is a friend who can’t be any older.

"Uh, this place is a bit dark." Lu Ren looked around and said, "No wonder they were unwilling to send someone down with me."

"But this map is abstract enough that I really can't tell where this place is."

Lu Ren took out a map from the system space, which they said was a map of the sewer, but the traces of markings on the map made it hard to believe that it was a map of this place.

The latest trace is a place marked in conspicuous red. Why are important places marked in red?

Lu Ren carefully identified the way there with the dim light.

This is a very difficult thing to do. In Lu Ren's eyes, the surrounding environment is the same everywhere, and he may get lost at any time. After all, he is not a god who can do everything perfectly.

"At worst, I can just walk through this place again." Lu Ren put away the map, took a deep breath, and walked to the left.

The sewer was dark and damp, not to mention surprisingly large.

Sometimes when Lu Ren stepped on a pool of liquid of unknown origin, he would rub it on it in disgust by looking for a drier place.

An hour passed, but Lu Ren felt like a century had passed. He hadn't had this feeling for a long time.

"Finally, finally found it!" Lu Ren looked at the big hole in front of him with excitement.

He walked quickly to the entrance of the hole and looked inside. It was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Lu Ren had already thought about not being able to see the situation inside, so he did not rush in, but instead observed the environment around the cave entrance.

"It's obvious that the entrance to the cave was opened by some large creature. There are no traces of human activity on the edge of the entrance."

Lu Ren walked forward and touched the edge of the cave entrance, then patted his hands and said.

"Several teams of Valkyries have gone in and haven't come out yet. What on earth is in there?"

As he was speaking, Lu Ren noticed that more than a dozen beams of "red light" appeared in the cave entrance. Any abnormality in such a strange environment made him extremely alert.

He took a few steps back and took out the purple sword from the system space.

The next second, these "red lights" suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Lu Ren.

In the flickering lights, Lu Ren saw the true face of the "red light", which was five dead men.

Judging from their attire, they are among the missing Valkyries.

There were five assassins, two in front and three behind, and the sickle of the one in the front was about to hit Lu Ren's cheek.

Lu Ren raised his sword and was about to fight back, but some scattered memories flashed before his eyes. These memories seemed to have some kind of magic that could attract Lu Ren's attention.

Lu Ren was distracted for a moment. When he recalled it later, he couldn't help but complain: "It doesn't come out when I want it, but it comes out when I don't want it. I don't know which one I want."

Naturally, they would not miss a perfect opportunity to attack, especially since this person had an aura that disgusted them.

The system is now confused. It doesn't understand what Lu Ren is doing without moving. It wants to call Lu Ren, but Lu Ren doesn't respond.

"Host, do you want to try their sickles? But you can't try them with your own body. As the saying goes, 'the body is the capital of revolution'. How come you are like this... I don't think I need to call you." The system said in a relaxed tone.

It turned out that another figure appeared from the darkness. Even though the light was dim, I could still see her extremely old-fashioned red glasses.

Fu Hua kicked the assassin in front away, causing him to lose balance and fall backwards, blocking the assassins behind him.

Fu Hua took the opportunity to get in front of Lu Ren and shook him vigorously, "Lu Ren, wake up."

Lu Ren's eyes looked like he had lost his soul at this moment, and he ignored Fu Hua's calls.

But Fu Hua couldn't care less at this time, because the five assassins recovered from their previous chaotic state and rushed towards them again.

These five death warriors were transformed from Valkyries. Although it was not difficult for Fu Hua to defeat them, Lu Ren became a flaw in the fight. Should he fight against a moving one or a motionless one? This is a problem that all Honkai beasts understand.

Fu Hua looked at the five assassins and decided to use a little bit of her strength.

An aura emanated from Fu Hua's body, which made the assassins who originally wanted to attack Lu Ren directly feel uneasy. Their remaining instinct told them that they had better stop Fu Hua's actions as soon as possible, otherwise there would be serious consequences.

In an instant, five sickles either chopped or slashed towards Fu Hua, but the attacks were bounced away by the energy before they could touch Fu Hua herself.

The assassin slightly adjusted his body and continued to attack.

Five assassins attacked Fu Hua from different directions. They thought they would be able to win this time, but unexpectedly, something unexpected happened again.

Lu Ren woke up and saw Fu Hua being besieged. He immediately drew his sword and stabbed one of the assassins.

He directly used the Taixu sword energy and killed the assassin with one blow, allowing her to rest in peace.

When the remaining assassins saw their companions being killed, their offensive slowed down slightly.

They then continued their attack on Fu Hua, but she had already dispersed that power and had no use for it now.

Fu Hua dodged the attack of one assassin by stepping back, but the attacks from the other three followed one after another, and the shining sickles were swung at her again and again.

While fighting with them, Fu Hua slowly moved to Lu Ren's side.

Four death warriors surrounded them from all sides. Lu Ren looked at the four death warriors and sincerely felt that they were here to deliver food.

Fu Hua and Lu Ren stood in front and behind, each dealing with two assassins.

Although they were outnumbered one against two, these assassins were still not enough for them to defeat.

When Fu Hua dealt with the last assassin, the two of them didn't even take a breath.

"Thank you, squad leader." Lu Ren also understood that it was Fu Hua who helped him just now, otherwise he would have been hit by the sickle and would have been in pain for a day or two.

Fu Hua said, "It's nothing, just a piece of cake. Your mission isn't to investigate the situation here, is it?"

"Almost." There was no expression on Lu Ren's face, but he still showed an apologetic expression in his heart.

"So Otto has arranged someone else, and he's the squad leader. He's quite nice."

Otto, who was far away on the floating island, sneezed. He wondered why he sneezed again.

"By the way, squad leader, do you have a flashlight?" Lu Ren asked. He planned that if he didn't have a flashlight, he would inject Honkai energy into the purple sword and use the light of the purple sword to explore this place.

The light emitted by the purple sword is still quite bright.

"certainly……"

Lu Ren has already started injecting Honkai energy into the purple sword.

"I brought it. I'll give you one." Fu Hua said.

"what?"

The next second, a strong light came from the sewer.
