As a symbiotic being, I raise children amidst the chaos.

"It's alright, little Rita, your brother is here for you, don't worry!" Upon hearing Rita's slightly tearful voice, Chen Yuan immediately activated his mimicry. His body rapidly grew larger at a visible speed, returning to a normal human size in the blink of an eye.

He steadied himself and gently cradled Rita in his arms. Reaching out his right hand, he softly stroked Rita's head. "Sweetie, tell your brother, where is your mother now?"

Rita looked up at Chen Yuan with her big, watery eyes, and sobbed as she answered, "Usually...Mom is always outside tidying up..."

However, before Rita could finish speaking, a ferocious and terrifying tank-class Honkai Beast appeared not far away. This Honkai Beast seemed to sense Chen Yuan and Rita's presence; its massive body suddenly curled into a ball, and like a high-speed rolling cannonball, it sped towards their direction.

In the blink of an eye, the tank-class Honkai Beast burst through the flower shop's door! In that instant, Chen Yuan tightly pulled Little Rita into his broad arms.

Turning around, he leaped to the side, successfully avoiding the fierce charge of the tank-class Honkai Beast. Although such an attack was useless against Chen Yuan in his current state, it was still better to keep his distance for the sake of Rita in his arms.

A deafening, terrifying roar suddenly erupted, and the walls of the flower shop, as fragile as paper, were instantly and completely destroyed.

Countless shards of broken tile flew everywhere like raindrops, raising clouds of dust and smoke. Chen Yuan, holding Little Rita, tumbled rapidly in the air before landing steadily on the ground.

As soon as he landed, Chen Yuan immediately bent down to carefully check on Rita's condition. "Are you alright, Rita?"

"I...I'm alright..." Rita responded softly in a slightly trembling voice. Her originally lovely face was now somewhat pale, clearly showing that she was quite frightened by the huge and ferocious tank-class Honkai Beast in front of her.

However, the chaos outside did not subside despite their temporary peace. The roars of the Honkai Beasts still echoed in all directions, and the streets were filled with the screams and cries of the innocent.

"What a beast..." Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes, moved Rita up a bit, and his arm transformed into a large black sword, which he slashed directly at the Honkai Beast in front of him.

"Die!" Chen Yuan roared, his black greatsword slashing mercilessly at the side of the Honkai Beast. The immense force was transmitted to the blade, and with a piercing metallic clang, the Chariot-class Honkai Beast was instantly cleaved in two.

Dust's attack was swift and decisive, scattering the remains of the tank-class Honkai Beast across the ground. However, this was only the beginning; more Honkai Beasts were surging in from all directions, like an endless torrent.

"Brother Chenyuan, Mom... Mom is still outside..." Little Rita's voice trembled noticeably, her eyes filled with tears. She clung tightly to Chenyuan's clothes, afraid that if she let go, she would lose her only support.

"Don't be afraid, Rita, your brother will definitely find your mother," Chen Yuan comforted her, while quickly assessing the situation. To be honest, these Honkai Beasts alone didn't really pose any threat to him.

After all, he was no longer the naive newcomer who had just arrived in the Honkai world! Thinking of this, Chen Yuan tilted his head and smiled gently at Rita in his arms. "Little Rita, close your eyes."

"Why, Brother Chenyuan?" Little Rita's voice was tinged with confusion, but she obediently closed her eyes. Seeing this, Chenyuan gently patted her back and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, brother will take you to find your mother soon."

Just as his voice faded into the air, Chen Yuan's body, like a black lightning bolt, suddenly burst forth with unimaginable speed. In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed out of the flower shop, his figure as ghostly as ever, leaving no trace.

At the same time, more than a dozen divine symbiotes instantly extended from its back, rapidly transforming into various weapon shapes. Some resembled extremely sharp longswords, others were like heavy and massive battle axes, and still others were shaped like sharp spears, and so on.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yuan moved back and forth among the Honkai Beasts like a ghost. The weapons around his body were brandished and fell like a dense storm.

Each attack was precise and accurate, hitting the Honkai Beasts' most vulnerable and fatal vital points. In an instant, Honkai energy flew everywhere, and the Honkai Beasts let out a series of shrill screams.

Wherever his figure went, Honkai Beasts fell one after another, utterly powerless to resist. His movements were fluid and natural, executed in one go, without even the slightest pause or hesitation.

This series of movements was as if it had been honed through countless trials, as perfect as a meticulously choreographed performance. And at this moment, Chen Yuan was undoubtedly the absolute protagonist on this stage.

Before long, the dense hordes of Honkai Beasts that had surrounded them were completely wiped out. Chen Yuan, holding Rita in his arms, stood quietly amidst the wreckage and ruins.

He then slowly lowered his head and gazed at the girl in his arms. Rita's eyes were tightly closed, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and there were still a few clearly visible tear tracks on her fair cheeks.

"Alright, Rita, you can open your eyes now," Chen Yuan said softly. Rita slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw the scene around her, she was so surprised that she couldn't speak. "Brother Chen Yuan... you're so amazing..."

"It's nothing..." Chen Yuan shook his head helplessly and sighed deeply after hearing this. Given the sheer number of Honkai Beasts and the ferocity of their attack, if Rita's mother had happened to be outside at that time, the consequences would have been unimaginable; she would most likely be dead by now.

'Whoosh...whoosh...' Just then, several sharp, piercing sounds of air being torn apart suddenly came from the silent horizon. Chen Yuan's heart tightened, and he looked up. He saw several warships flying towards them from the distant horizon at an astonishing speed.

Narrowing his eyes slightly, if he wasn't mistaken, those warships should be carrying the members of Ragnar's team.

Just as Chen Yuan was lost in thought, a stern female voice rang out from behind: "Who are you! Put that girl down!!"

Dust was pulled back to reality by the sudden reprimand and quickly turned around. What came into view was a woman with a lithe figure.

She has long, smooth, brownish-gray hair that cascades down her shoulders like a waterfall, and a pair of purplish-red eyes. The ends of her dark hair show a brownish-red gradient color, and her bangs are neatly parted in a 3/7 ratio, which further accentuates the delicacy of her face.

Her long, beautiful hair was carefully braided into a long braid with a snow-white ribbon, hanging elegantly down her back and swaying gently in the breeze.

She wore a headband adorned with lace and a modified maid outfit designed primarily for aesthetics. She wore a white apron decorated with ruffles, a plain white-collared short dress with a built-in petticoat, and below, white sheer stockings and black round-toed leather shoes. She also held a black greatsword and stared coldly at me.

'Oh no…'

Looking into her rose-red pupils, Chen Yuan suddenly remembered that Ragnar seemed to be working at a coffee shop in Manchester around this time.

At the same time, he realized that he seemed to have forgotten to turn on the invisibility function. After all, he was spawned right next to Rita at the beginning of the game, and there was no one around. He subconsciously ignored this situation.

Meanwhile, Ragnar's situation was also quite dire. As soon as the Honkai outbreak began, she immediately contacted her teammates and rushed out of the coffee shop to join the emergency evacuation of civilians.

However, in this chaotic moment, Ragnar suddenly noticed a woman who, instead of evacuating with the crowd, was running headlong toward the location of the Honkai Beasts.

Ragnar was immediately anxious and hurriedly caught up with the woman. After a thorough interrogation, he learned that the woman's child was trapped in a place ravaged by Honkai Beasts and his life was in danger.

Upon hearing this, Ragnar didn't have time to think further and immediately quickened his pace, rushing anxiously in that direction.

But who could have predicted that upon arriving at this place, what greeted their eyes was the terrifying scene of Chen Yuan wielding his sword and slaughtering Honkai Beasts?

"Well, I'm not a good person... ugh... I'm not a bad person." Carefully placing Rita on the ground, Chen Yuan looked at Ragnar and said calmly, "Just an ordinary older brother who wants to protect his sister."

"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, Ragnar glanced at Chen Yuan, then at Rita, who was clinging tightly to Chen Yuan's leg. His expression immediately turned somewhat awkward, and he quickly sheathed his greatsword. "I'm so sorry, I misunderstood you!"
