Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

So, is there a problem with him saying he is Walter?

Durandal was somewhat reluctant to speak to the other person.

That terrifying talent, which made one question the very existence of the world, was, in her view, far more powerful than any Herrscher authority.

She was certain that even without the power of a Herrscher, Shihen would eventually become a far superior being to the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance.

But why would such a powerful person be so keen on impersonating others?

"What is your purpose in causing chaos in a place like this?"

While continuing her offensive, Durandal questioned him.

"Would you believe me if I said it was an accident?"

Shihen asked.

He and Raven's only goal was the relic; they didn't want to attract Schicksal's attention.

The Valkyrie remained silent, but increased the force of her punch.

Clearly, the other party did not accept this answer.

"I think we can sit down and communicate peacefully; there's no need for us to keep fighting like this."

To avoid the girl's powerful punch, Shihen offered a suggestion.

The mission to obtain the artifact is complete. Continuing to fight the World Serpent will not result in overtime pay for Time's Strike, and may even lead to a deduction of his bonus.

"Alright, surrender now, and I guarantee you'll be safe until you reach the headquarters of Destiny."

Durandal retorted.

"Hey, hey, hey, you guys were the ones who attacked first, okay? I was even thinking of inviting you to visit Anti-Entropy, where I could guarantee your safety and even bring you back unharmed."

Shihen strongly condemns this shameless behavior.

"You're not one of those anti-entropy people at all!"

Durandal retorted.

Who would use a pseudonym to mention the name of their organization's leader?

"Even if I'm not Anti-Entropy... no, I'm the leader of Anti-Entropy. If I say I'll protect you, I won't let you lose a single hair."

Almost falling for the girl's trick, Shihen was so frightened that he quickly changed his tune.

Finally, Shihen added, "By the way, you shouldn't be losing your hair, right?"

Given the training intensity of this strongest Valkyrie, he was very worried about her hair volume.

Yulandel: "..."

The girl's attack speed increases by 30%.

It seems this question is destined to remain unanswered.

Shihen clicked his tongue in slight regret.

Suddenly, Shihen caught sight of the Valkyrie's long fist coming at him and couldn't help but smile: "Young Valkyrie, you've repeated your moves."

He had already witnessed this move four minutes earlier.

The opponent has run out of tricks.

With a sigh in his heart, Shihen met the attack with the same long fist.

But the moment they made contact, Durandal suddenly changed her fist into a claw, grabbed Shihen's arm, quickly turned around, and used all her strength to throw the boy forward.

This is a throwing technique that even utilizes the power of Shihen's own punch.

huh?

Feeling his body being thrown off the deck, Shihen was somewhat dazed.

That idiot from the Kaslana family actually tricked him without any sense of morality?

Chapter Sixteen: This is Destiny

His body was flying rapidly through the air, with the whistling wind filling his ears, but Shihen was not in a hurry at all.

However, that's all; he only needs to exert a little effort to get back...

Before he could even finish the thought, Shihen saw a white figure leaping out of the warship right behind him.

Bang!

The thrusters on her back ignited suddenly, and Durandal's already extremely fast speed increased by another level, almost instantly catching up with Time Mark, who had flown out first.

"Got you!"

Grabbing Shihen's wrist tightly, Youlandail said with a serious expression.

"You should smile at this time."

Shihen kindly offered his advice.

The strategic objective was achieved, but the girl still had a stern face, as if she owed the other party a warship.

Well... perhaps he really does owe the other party a warship.

Looking at the floating warship emitting plumes of black smoke above the two of them, Shihen couldn't help but feel ashamed.

Hmm, about the size of a fingernail.

The quality of Destiny's equipment is worrying.

Shihen felt that he had nothing to do with the destruction of the warship and strongly condemned the shoddy construction by the Tianming Logistics Department.

"I won't let you go!"

Ignoring Shihen's ramblings, Youlandail spoke in a solemn tone.

Regardless of whether it caused such severe collapse or nearly destroyed the Undying Blade's warship, she had no reason to let the other party leave.

"Don't talk as if I used you and then abandoned you."

Shihen felt a shattering pain shooting through his wrist as the girl gripped it, yet he was still in the mood to joke with her.

"..."

A barely perceptible blush rose to her cheeks, and Durandal's offensive intensified once more.

This violent maniac is destined to be single for life!

Cursing inwardly, Shihen retaliated with a heavy blow against the Valkyrie.

Pulled by gravity, their bodies accelerated toward the ground, but the battle between the two in the air remained fierce and showed no sign of stopping.

Durandal's reason for distrusting the other party was that she wanted to seize every opportunity to bring Shihen, such a dangerous person, to justice.

As for Shihen... since the other party has come knocking on his door, he can't escape even if he wants to.

Even though the environment wasn't ideal, the intensity of their battle was no less than when they were on the warship, with every punch and kick aimed at crippling the other's mobility.

As for the threat posed by falling from a height, people have already stopped caring about human beings, so who still cares about that?

The height of several hundred meters passed in an instant. As they were about to hit the ground, the two exchanged blows again, and their bodies separated, crashing into the ground and creating two large craters.

"Surrender now, you have nowhere to run."

With a wave of her hand, she dispersed the dust and issued a notice.

Without the constraints of the warship, she can now use her power without restraint.

"That's the sentence I should return to you verbatim."

Rubbing his wrist, which was aching from the girl's grip, Shihen swung his leg and kicked a Honkai Beast charging at him, sending it flying more than ten meters away.

They landed right in the middle of a group of Honkai Beasts.

However, to both him and Durandal, these Honkai Beasts were no different from ants.

"This is my last warning. I don't want to kill you."

With a solemn expression, a faint golden light appeared in Durandal's blue eyes.

"You mean you can kill me anytime you want?!"

Standing atop the head of a Honkai Beast, Shihen roared arrogantly, his white robes fluttering in the wind.

At this moment, in this situation, he felt he should have a round fan in his hand.

"..."

Faced with Shihen's clamor, Durandal remained silent, but the gold in her eyes suddenly blazed brightly, like two burning suns.

Sensing the sudden surge of power emanating from the girl, Shihen fell silent.

Coach, I want to report someone for cheating!

Everyone agreed to fight using only their own strength, but you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, suddenly unleashed your inner power?

"Surrender," Durandal warned finally. "I can't control this power yet, and I don't want to accidentally kill you."

Although the battle between the two was intense, she did not sense any killing intent from her opponent, as if he had come all the way just to fight her.

"Hahaha~" Shihen covered his mask and laughed wildly, "Young Valkyrie, what makes you think that was my full strength just now?"

"I am the man who inherited the name of Welt!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two bright but not fiery white lights appeared in Shihen's eye sockets, like a quiet silver moon in the night sky.

At this moment, the power of the Holy Mark within Shihen's body has been fully unleashed.

Half a year is more than enough time for the boy to level up a single Holy Mark to the maximum level.

Hearing that Shihen still remembered his name, Walter, Durandal pursed her lips and did not refute him.

With her legs slightly bent, the girl's body shot out like a cannonball, leaving a trail of brilliant gold on the ground.

Without hesitation, Shihen also charged toward the Valkyrie at supersonic speed, breaking the sound barrier.

boom!

The two bodies collided violently midway, unleashing a deafening roar ten times more terrifying than before. The force spread outward, transforming into shockwaves that destroyed everything in their path with equal force, even the massive Honkai Beasts were reduced to dust without exception.

When the two people at the pinnacle of power in the world unleash their full strength without reservation, even watching them requires paying a heavy price.

-------------------------------------

Inside the bridge, the Valkyries who remained watched the two engage in a fierce battle from the sky to the ground on the screen, and their numb expressions began to change once again.

So, the floating warships that embody the pinnacle of Destiny's technology aren't even qualified to serve as a stage?

It turns out that there really are humans who can unleash such terrifying power on their own, and there's more than one!

Looking at the side of the projection screen, the Valkyries could clearly see the energy intensity indicated by the ship's AI:

2000HW!

Keep in mind that the output power of their floating warship is less than 1000HW.

In an instant, everyone felt that their already shattered worldview had shattered even more completely.

They had originally had a high level of understanding of Durandal's strength, but now it seemed that it was only because the opponents they had encountered before were too weak, leaving Durandal no room to unleash her power.

Looking at the blurry image on the screen, Rita couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

Faced with such a Durandal, does she really deserve to protect her?

After returning from the Sea of ​​Quanta, she knew that Durandal had become very strong, but this was the first time she had seen her use her full strength.

Moreover, even with her current strength, Durandal was unable to achieve victory.

Although the battle between the two is not clearly visible, judging from the energy intensity indicated by the AI, Durandal is only 200 HW higher than her opponent, which is far from an advantage.

Moreover, she was well aware that using the power of the World Bubble would place a tremendous burden on Durandal's body.

Bearing the weight of an entire world on its shoulders, this is not a power that can be used lightly.

Unsure of Shihen's condition, she must be prepared to take over the battle should Durandal fall to defeat.

Biting her lip, Rita made up her mind.

But before that, she had another thing to do.
