Collapse, Kaslana's Way of Survival

Considering that the other party could stamp his side, Kainuo temporarily gave up the idea of ​​teasing the other party and planned to give the other party some respect.

So he took out the instruction manual and handed it to the Spring Spirit.

"Here, the manual is here, please stamp it."

The Spring Elf frowned.

"Did you misunderstand something? To get the stamp, you must first obtain the approval of the assessor... Wait."

The Spring Spirit suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence, leaned closer to Kayno, and snorted.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

The Spring Spirit's actions frightened Keno so much that he took a step back.

Why is this judge still acting like a hooligan?

"Ahem, no, nothing."

The Spring Elf froze and quickly retreated. Her golden eyes darted around, finally fixing on Kainuo.

Yin Qiyinshaner frowned and swallowed her saliva.

"Have you been to Houmu Leng... No, nothing."

The Spring Elf stopped talking mid-sentence and patted his cheek.

Spring Spirit, oh Spring Spirit, it is wrong to abuse power for personal gain!

"Since you're the first team to come here, do you have any objection to me assigning you a more difficult task?"

"If possible, it would be best to deduct the stamp directly."

Honest Kaino expressed his opinion.

Glancing at Keno, the Spring Elf ignored him and continued:

"Legend has it that there's a mysterious and powerful Honkai beast, Benares, that constantly wanders along the southern coast. Every day from noon to mid-afternoon, she takes a nap in the nearby sea."

"Find her and tame her. This is the content of your trial."

Kainuo: ???

He seemed to have seen this name before?

"Wait, let me look through it."

Quickly taking out the Honkai Beast Atlas he had bought, Kayno found the relevant information about Benares recorded on it.

"Benares is a Judgment-level Honkai beast, right? You want us to tame it?!"

Kainuo stared at the Spring Elf with wide eyes, constantly wondering if he had offended the other party in any way.

Or is it that the average strength of an average beast tamer in this world is that of a Herrscher, making it easy for them to suppress the Judge-level?

"Yes, it's Judgment-level. But since you're the first group to arrive, you can certainly handle more difficult tasks."

The Spring Elf nodded, then took out a piece of paper and threw it to Keno.

"I've even drawn a map for you so you don't get lost. Once you've tamed Benares, remember to bring her here. I'll only give you my seal once you've seen her in person."

"Well, of course, this task is a bit difficult. I'm acquainted with the judge of the advanced competition area. If you can really complete it, I will introduce you to her. So, are you motivated?"

"No, not at all."

Holding the route map given by the Spring Elf, Kayno felt mixed emotions.

The judge's trial was clearly completed, but he still gave benefits... Could that Benares be the Honkai beast you always wanted but couldn't get?

After glancing at the Spring Elf who had picked up the instant noodles again, Keno sighed and began to check the route map.

Then he frowned.

Compared with the square route map of the swimwear shop owner that was easy to understand at a glance, the map of the Spring Elf cannot be said to be bad, it can only be said to be beyond the level of human cognition.

"What's this picture of? A ball of yarn?"

Hong Xier came close to Kaino and couldn't help complaining when looking at the route map.

"We didn't offend her, did we?"

"I agree with you. But it's okay, I understand... I should."

Throwing the route map directly into the imaginary space, Kayno replied.

"You understand?!"

Hong Xier was shocked.

"It's passable. My sister drew something similar when we played treasure hunt as kids. But they're not the same person, so I'm not sure my interpretation skills would apply here."

Kainuo shrugged, stretched out his hands in front of him, and after a flash of blue light, a black motorcycle appeared in the same place.

Although it was large, its technological content wasn't particularly high. Furthermore, Keno's Honkai Energy reserves were constantly recovering, so a motorcycle wasn't much of a burden for him.

After putting a helmet on himself, Keno sat on it and pointed behind him with his thumb.

"It's a long way to go. Come on, Xier. There's a handle at the back of the car. You don't have to hold me."

"Ah, ah, okay."

Lan Xier nodded in panic and followed suit by straddling him.

He quickly reappeared a helmet and turned around to put it on Xier's head. Then, Kaino looked at the red Xier who was looking at him:

"Will you be able to keep up with the speed of the motorcycle in a while? Do you want me to slow down a bit?"

"Huh? Are you kidding?"

Hong Xier floated to Lan Xier's side and pointed at the stigma on her chest:

"I am essentially Seele's stigma consciousness. Although I usually float around, I actually move relative to Seele."

"Ah, I almost forgot."

Patting his head, Kainuo gave a somewhat apologetic smile.

"Then let's go!"

Keno twisted the handlebars of the motorcycle hard and rushed forward.

"Hey, Keno, are you going in the wrong direction? Didn't that spring spirit say Benares is to the south?!"

"That's right, before we catch Honkai Beast, we have to go eat first, right? I've been craving that Fountain Spirit instant noodles for a long time."

Chapter 55 Benares

Haibin City, South China Sea.

Although Kaslana loved to eat and had a large appetite, she also ate quickly. However, the primary competition area was indeed quite far from the seaside, and the map provided by the Spring Spirit was indeed too vague. It took Kainuo and Xier nearly 15:00 PM to find it by motorcycle.

After getting off the motorcycle, Lan Xier stared at the sea in silence.

"What, are you homesick?"

Kaino walked up to Xier, tilted his head and asked softly.

Usually in TV dramas or comics, when people suddenly stare at the sea motionless, they are either missing home or watching the sunrise or sunset.

Hong Xier shrugged her shoulders and snorted:

"Oh, what are you missing home for? I guess you're just missing someone, her sister Bronya."

"Dui Haisi people?"

Kainuo looked at Hong Xier with a puzzled look on his face.

Although the beach is a popular destination in Seaside City, tourists are now busy catching Honkai beasts or looking for judges, so they naturally don’t have the leisure to go to the beach to play.

So now the only magical people on the beach are Kainuo and his friends. Kainuo doesn't have to worry about other people's strange looks and can talk to Hong Xier freely.

Although he doesn't really care even normally.

"Yes, Seele and her Bronya... Look, Seele has come to her senses. Let her talk to you."

Seeing Lan Xier turning her head, Xier stopped talking mid-sentence.

"After all, it's not nice to talk about others behind their backs."

"Eh? Xier, are you talking to Brother Kaino about me?"

Lan Xier looked a little surprised.

It seems that the other party was really absorbed in looking at the sea just now and did not notice the conversation between Kainuo and the others.

"Xi'er, do you like the sea? I see you lose yourself when you get to the beach."

"Ah, no. I like the sea... Maybe that's part of it, but it's mostly because I think of Bronya-san."

This was not the first time the other party mentioned the name Bronya, but only this time a trace of sadness and reminiscence appeared on Seele's face.

"Seele once made a promise with Sister Bronya to go to the sea together... but until now, this promise has never been fulfilled."

Having said that, Xier looked a little lost and lowered her head slightly.

"Seele has already seen the ocean twice, but Bronya-nee probably hasn't even seen it once. Seele is now playing here, looking at the ocean, but Bronya-nee is probably still tirelessly searching for a way to get Seele back."

"Sister Bronya..."

"Okay, okay, we'll go back in a few days, then you can see your sister."

Reaching out a hand to ruffle Xier's hair, Kaino laughed out loud:

"I'll just bury my longing for my family deep in my heart for now, and I'll let it out when I get back. For now, I'll just have fun."

In terms of missing his family alone, Kainuo believes that his longing for his father and sister is no less than Xier's longing for her sister.

Looking at it this way, the two of them really do look alike. Both have loved ones they miss, and both have stumbled and fallen into the quantum sea...

"what."

Hong Xier beside her laughed out loud.

"why are you laughing?"

Kainuo was a little confused, thinking that there was nothing funny in what he said.

"I wonder what you've misunderstood... Missing your family? Is that how you understand it?"

"What's wrong? Didn't Xier shout..."

"Okay, the other me!" Xier's angry voice suddenly rang out, interrupting the conversation between Kainuo and Hong Xier. "No, don't say any more."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. If you want to say it or not, then I won't say it~"

Hong Xier stretched out the last syllable and looked at Xier with a slight smile.

"So what is it... Xi'er, be careful!"

Kaino, who initially thought Seele's shy expression was endearing, was about to continue teasing her, but a sudden flash of white on the sea surface caught his attention. Recalling his purpose for coming to the beach, he quickly pulled Seele behind him, and the Holy Judge of Skyfire immediately took action, keeping him on guard.

"Xi'er, leave your body to me."

Hong Xier's voice sounded from behind, and then Xier, holding a blood-red sickle, stood beside Kainuo.

"Xie'er?"

Seeing Xier's temperament change drastically, Kainuo confirmed it out loud.

"...Alas, now I regret having the same name as Xi'er."

Xier sighed and glanced at Kaino, then stared at the sea again:

"Be careful. I'm not sure I can defeat that Honkai Beast."

"Roar!!!"

The massive creature, which had only been a faint smear of white on the surface, now emerged completely from the water. The blue and white dragon revealed its true form. Its body, over a hundred meters long, stretched out over the water, its massive dragon head roaring heavenward as it slowly fixed its gaze on Kainuo and Xier.

The ice-blue eyes kept moving between Kayno and Xier, and finally fixed on Kayno, whose appearance and color were quite similar to hers.

"Roar!!!"

With a roar, the dragon's sharp claws slapped the water surface, and its entire body suddenly rushed towards Keno.

It didn't really matter who the dragon was targeting, its massive body was enough to put both of them within its attack range.

"Spring Spirit, remember this!"
