Honkai: It’s broken, I have become the Herrscher of Corrosion?

(Entering the perspective of Wuliangta Jizi...)

Before Theresa and Mei Raiden face the Herrscher of Ice, he needs to work with Dr. Tesla to open the electromagnetic barrier and attract as much attention as possible from Destiny.

Before the action began, he noticed that Theresa was staring at him with a very complicated expression.

"What's wrong, Theresa? You look like this... It's rare to see you like this."

Theresa was silent for a few seconds before she slowly spoke:

"...Jizi, you know your body better than I do...I know that once you make a decision, even I may not be able to change it...So, take care of yourself."

Soon after, Himeko and Tesla left the third airport. According to the plan, they needed to shut down the Honkai energy reactor closest to them, which was the most efficient way to effectively remove the electromagnetic barrier.

Not long after walking, Wuliangta Jizi saw a patrolling robot troop moving along a predetermined route ahead. She immediately looked for cover and hid.

"Dr. Tesla, it looks like we're almost within the range of Destiny's defenses. Do you have any battle plans?"

"Operation plan? I think we should call Otto and have him shut down all the Houkai furnaces in Tianming, roll out a red carpet to welcome us to our destination, and open a few bottles of champagne to celebrate. What do you think of this operation plan?"

Ji Zi smiled. She didn't expect that Dr. Tesla from Anti-Entropy had such a good sense of humor. Even in such a tense situation, he still had time to make jokes.

"What other plan can I have? Of course I will smash everything I see to pieces!"

"Oh, I quite like this plan."

Ji Zi then drew the big sword from behind and rushed out.

[Illegal intrusion detected, defense system activated...]

The robot closest to Jizi was split in half by Jizi without even turning on the defense mode.

The mechas in the rear wanted to attack Jizi from the flank, but what was waiting for them was the iron fist of the Titan mecha. Due to the difference in technology points, the mecha troops of Destiny were far behind Anti-Entropy in all aspects. Dr. Tesla killed more than ten mechas of Destiny without performing any difficult moves, and although her own mecha could not be said to be scarred, it could at least be considered intact.

After dealing with the mecha troops in this area, the two decided to search separately because there was a fork in the road. Along the way, whatever blocked the way, Jizi would go up and kill it with a sword. With this fighting style, Jizi quickly broke through several lines of defense.

But at this moment, she discovered a very important problem: if she wanted to shut down the Collapse Furnace, she had to find it first. But now, she was lost.

Fortunately, after some exploration, she finally reconnected with Tesla:

"This place is more circuitous than I thought... How's it going over there?"

Tesla responded with a slightly dissatisfied expression:

"It's OK. I have now hacked into the system and locked the location of the Houkai furnace. It's much better than a certain confused lady."

Listening to Tesla's sarcastic tone, Ji Zi felt a little helpless:

"Have you always been so hot-tempered?"

Tesla's tone suddenly softened a lot:

"No, it's just that I really hate fools like you. Just because you don't have much time left, you take the initiative to take on the most dangerous mission."

"You want to sacrifice yourself to pave the way for your companions. People like you have very simple thoughts and can be seen through at once."

Ji Zi asked calmly:

"So... you decided to work with me just to tell me this?"

Tesla's voice rose another octave:

"Don't be so conceited! I've only seen a fool who is even dumber than you are now! No, there's more than one! People like you make me irritated!"

"Okay... but Tesla, I still want to thank you..."

"Be careful, reinforcements are coming!"

Tesla looked at the information in front of him and pondered for a moment:

"This core here... seems to be usable... Hey, great, just as I thought, it is connected to the main network... Jizi, help me buy some time!"

"This guy is quite good at ordering people around."

Although Ji Zi muttered this, she still stepped forward and fought with the reinforcements. Even though a strange feeling spread throughout her body, her sword-swinging movements did not slow down at all.

As the sweat on her forehead continued to drip down, Tesla's voice finally came again:

"Success! The Houkai reactor has been shut down and the electromagnetic barrier has disappeared. Retreat quickly! But it looks like we can't go back the same way. Follow me!"

The two men left quickly, but the mecha troops behind them kept chasing them.

"Turn left, then right!"

Ji Zi felt that the Skymanage Headquarters was like a maze. If it weren't for Tesla's instructions, she would probably get lost again.

They finally stopped in front of a building that looked like a laboratory, and the sound of fierce fighting came from behind.

It turned out that it was not that the mecha troops stopped chasing, but that there was a group of Honkai beasts in front of them. Thanks to the flexible positioning of Jizi and Tesla, they successfully shifted their lock from themselves to the Honkai beasts.

"Huh, we finally got rid of those guys. Let's take a break for a while."

Because Tesla's mecha was too large, she couldn't enter the building in front of her, so she had to get out of the mecha.

Perhaps it was because her nerves suddenly relaxed after a long battle, Ji Zi only felt a fishy and sweet taste in her throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

"I really don't have much time left..."

When Ji Zi saw that Tesla didn't seem to notice her after coming out of the mecha, but seemed to be attracted by something in the laboratory, she immediately wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and quickly followed him.

In front of the two people was a common laboratory table with a reagent bottle filled with red liquid on it.

"HSN-B46 reagent... I always feel that it seems a bit abrupt to put it in this position..."

Just as Tesla was concentrating on his research, two red feathers appeared in the air at some point. They floated in the wind and finally landed accurately on the heads of the two men.

A feeling of weariness suddenly swept over the two of them...
