Collapse, women's clothing strategy Qiyana, then

With her remaining powers, Kiana quickly grasped a Void Spear.

Bai Yan watched slowly as the other party got into position, without making a move.

Kiana, standing beside him, hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

—Forget it, the me in this parallel world isn't the real me anyway, let him beat me up if he wants.

next moment.

A jet-black longsword suddenly appeared in Bai Yan's hand, and Yan Lu's power materialized in that instant.

Holding the Spear of the Void, Kiana was dumbfounded: "Huh?"

Not only her, but everyone else also showed expressions of disbelief.

“I think this should also be considered a form of psychological attack, don’t you think?” Bai Yan revealed a malicious look.

As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped high into the air with a burst of energy.

Once in mid-air, the longsword turned downwards again, directly replicating the sword technique that descended from the sky.

Kiana was startled by the sight and immediately raised her Void Spear to defend herself.

However, just as the black longsword was about to hit the ground, it expanded wildly once again.

Finally, the longsword completely transformed, becoming pointed at one end and rounded at the other, resembling a dropper; it hovered quietly above Kiana's head.

The latter was stunned, completely unable to understand what this scene meant.

Boo!

The round end of the black "dropper" contracted slightly, immediately separating a black mass that fell straight onto Kiana's head.

boom!

A fist-sized ball of pitch black, the moment it touched her, seemed to crush her as if it weighed a ton.

Smoke and dust filled the air, and gravel scattered everywhere, leaving the scene in a complete mess.

Kiana was pinned down by that dark mass and couldn't get up from the ground.

At this moment, Bai Yan slowly landed, and the dark object in the sky still disappeared.

"Your powers haven't been sealed?!" she asked with some difficulty, lying on the ground.

"It's just a little trick of using mental energy." As he spoke, Bai Yan had already gathered an invisible sword aura in his hand.

His mind was indeed sealed at first, but the strange seal disappeared after Bai Yan deployed an invisible barrier on the mental level.

Of course, the truth cannot be told, otherwise the secret will be exposed.

"What are you going to do to Kiana?!"

Raiden Mei suddenly stepped forward and squeezed between Shirohiko and him, her whole body tense, ready to guard against any move the other made.

Bai Yan didn't say anything, and instead swung his sword at Raiden Mei.

A single sword strike startles the world.

Raiden Mei froze on the spot, her eyes closed as if frozen in place.

This is a version that Bai Yan improved upon after his encounter with the Eighth Herrscher in the previous civilization.

A single blow to the spirit is enough to make the opponent's subjective consciousness feel as if a power source has been switched on.

To restart the device on its own, it either needs to recover using its own mental power or be awakened by someone else.

"Mei!"

"You should worry about yourself."

After saying that, Bai Yan swung his sword at Kiana again.

Kiana also fell into a kind of stillness.

Bai Yan took the opportunity to withdraw the power of the Rock Law and looked at Bronya with an invisible sword aura.

The latter showed no intention of resisting, but simply looked at Bai Yan thoughtfully.

"It seems you understand now."

"Bronya trusts the judgment of another Kiana and Dr. May."

"Oh?"

"Because Bronya can see that the other Kiana is no different from our Kiana. And you seem to be trusted by her, which is why Bronya made that judgment—so, please do it."

She remained expressionless, but a hint of determination appeared in her eyes.

Bai Yan simply nodded, then brought his sword down.

All three of them simultaneously fell into a state of mental stagnation.

"It seems it won't be long before they break free of the shackles Kevin imposed; and the seal on the other side disappeared the moment you made your move... Your world seems to be somewhat different from ours?" Dr. Mei said as she watched Bai Yan return after finishing everything.

“That’s exactly what I wanted to ask,” Bai Yan said. “Let’s make an assumption: If, in the previous civilization era, the last three Herrschers, excluding the End, failed to inflict significant damage on that civilization, and in the current civilization era, it is a super-enhanced version of Sakura who is in charge of implementing the Stigmata Project, what does this situation imply?”

The two still-awake Shilu and Kiana both turned their gazes toward them.

The law-aware person on the other side was already numb.

—How did this parallel world even come to be? It's terrifying!

“It didn’t cause any serious damage…” Mei muttered to herself, a bunch of information flashing through her mind, before asking, “Can you reveal a little more information?”

Bai Yan nodded and looked at Kiana.

The latter then took the opportunity to recount his experiences in the previous civilization.

Mei fell into deep thought, her eyes flickering.

After a while.

"Their combat strength is relatively well preserved, and they also possess so much information. Given my personality, I would definitely make full use of it... So your guess is correct. The other me will definitely send Kevin to accomplish something more important, perhaps even related to the surviving but missing Mu Continent."

"Should we cram all the people from the previous civilization into it?" Bai Yan asked.

“That’s impossible,” Mei shook her head. “The various problems that would arise would probably be no less than those of the End.”

"But you said that Sakura over there is still alive and well, and is even in charge of the Stigmata Project?"

Kiana nodded: "Yes, and she's much stronger than before. You could say she's practically unbeatable right now. We fought her once before, even with Durandal there, and we suffered a crushing defeat."

Mei's eyes flickered slightly, as if she had thought of something, and she said, "I have a guess: Sakura from your side probably knows about the situation on Mu Continent, and may have even assisted Kevin in doing something before she fell into a deep sleep."

Kiana, upon hearing this, exclaimed in surprise, "What?!"

Bai Yan's expression didn't change much; he simply stood there silently, contemplating the fate of the Mu Continent.

Volume 1: Chapter 238: Kiana: So it's my turn to get beaten up?

"Is there any more information?" Mei asked again.

So Kiana simply recounted all the major events she had experienced in the previous civilization.

Despite being the world's best player, the team still retains its original world-class abilities.

Or rather, wisdom itself is the most valuable asset.

Kiana's experiences seem special, but they are actually quite unusual.

Mei didn't react much to this; she simply remained silent and pondered.

After a while.

“So, the most crucial person is actually Miss Fu Yan,” she said rationally. “Your world will be completely different from ours, and the variable with the greatest influence is her.”

"However, just like you said, no one has been able to find her since she disappeared."

"Hmm... I think what you need to do isn't an extremely difficult part, after all..."

At this point, the three people who had just been knocked unconscious suddenly stirred.

Bai Yan cast a glance and calmly looked at the person opposite him.

"Ugh..." Kiana was the first to wake up, rubbing her forehead and looking at Bai Yan with a hint of resentment. "You really hit hard. Now I believe you're quite familiar with that Durandal."

Raiden Mei's first reaction was to try using her powers, and soon a spark of electricity flashed across her palm.

"Looks like it worked—now we need to return to our original world. Do the two of you need any help before we leave?"

As soon as she finished speaking, her Herrscher armor reappeared on her body, and she stared at Bai Yan with an unfriendly expression.

"I couldn't ask for more." Suddenly, a large number of black longswords appeared behind Bai Yan. With a wave of his hand, all the longswords pointed at Raiden Mei, ready to strike.

Black swords filled half the sky, and their numbers continued to rise, making everyone who saw them feel a chill run down their spines.

Raiden Mei suddenly felt very bored.

How could there be such a powerful person in a parallel world?

"Forget it, even I can't do anything about him, let alone you guys?" Shi Lu waved his hand and said.

"Remember to go easy on me when you're attacking me later," Kiana said to Bai Yan, squinting her eyes.

“But there’s something strange,” Raiden Mei said, scrutinizing Bai Yan, “why are you the only one who wasn’t sealed away?”

Bai Yan withdrew his power and said easily, "Herrscher authority only accounts for a small part of my power. Even if I remove the Herrscher core, my combat strength will not change much."

"..."

At this moment, in Raiden Mei's eyes, Shirohiko's image was inexplicably growing larger.

At the same time, she even imagined Durandal equipping the core and beginning to curiously play with the powers.

Bronya: ?A??

"You don't seem surprised by this, Kiana over there?" Raiden Mei asked.

"...Before he became a Herrscher, I saw Durandal asking him to be her sparring partner," Kiana said, scratching her head somewhat awkwardly.

The scene fell completely silent.

With someone covering for him, Bai Yan was happy to have some peace of mind.

In the end, the four people on the other side were eager to leave, so after a brief farewell, Kiana guided them to the spatial passage.

Mei's gaze lingered for a moment in a certain empty space, as if she were talking to someone.

Bai Yan waited patiently until the other party sighed and turned their attention back to him.

"Did you do this on purpose?" Bai Yan asked.

"of course."

"why?"

"Just now, I, or rather Xiaoshi on the other side, discovered some problems with the world bubble I'm in."

Upon hearing this, Kiana and Shilü were both puzzled.

Kiana asked, "What's the problem?"

"Extinction is inevitable."

Then Kiana suddenly realized, "Can't even two of me together work?"

"There is only one you, Kiana."

"What do you mean?"

However, Mei smiled and shook her head.

“You are different from the women from before. After leaving here, you will go to a completely different space.”

"My body is about to give out, you'll have to walk the rest of the way on your own."

"As law enforcers for humanity, there is much you can do."

After listening to Mei's account, Bai Yan pondered for a moment, and then a strange feeling welled up in his heart.

It felt somewhat familiar, but upon careful recall, I couldn't quite place it.

This peculiar sense of familiarity does not come from past life memories; the familiarity with the scene I just witnessed is completely different from this one.

Where exactly have I seen this before?
