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

She could sense that after mimicking so many Divine Keys in succession, the aura emanating from the other party had become weaker.

"Hahaha~ You guys really surprise me that you've gotten this far!"

But if I were to use this tactic, how would you respond?

While laughing wildly with his hand on his forehead, Shihen stretched out his right hand, and a line of firelight burst out from between his fingers.

"This is……"

Sensing an extremely violent aura emanating from her, Durandal's expression changed slightly.

"Mimicry - Heavenly Fire Judgment".

As he casually uttered those words, the flames in Shi Hen's hand instantly surged and condensed into a giant golden-red sword.

"Heavenly Fire Judgment! How did you get information on this sword!?"

Yae Sakura cheered enthusiastically.

"Nothing is impossible for me."

Shihen said arrogantly, without offering any further explanation.

Having fought alongside the Herrscher of Reason throughout the ages, this core has accumulated a vast amount of weapon data, but Welt Yang has not been able to reproduce them all.

Understanding and reconstruction can actually be seen as two powers.

"Now, prepare to meet your end." With a soft voice, Shihen raised his greatsword high. "To protect the name of Welt, I am willing to give my life!"

A hoarse voice rang out, and the Heavenly Fire Greatsword in Shihen's hand emitted a light as intense as the sun.

Unlike the mimicry of the Void and the Myriad Treasures, the reconstruction of the Law of Reason is a complete reproduction.

As long as the holder is powerful enough, even a mimicked Divine Key can unleash power just like the genuine one.

"Black Abyss White Flower!"

"Seven Thunderbolts to Purify Sins!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Durandal and Yae Sakura also activated the power of the Divine Key in their hands.

No one can afford to be complacent in the face of the Destruction Key with the most destructive power—the Judgment of Heavenly Fire.

Just as the Heavenly Fire Judgment was about to strike, the greatsword suddenly trembled.

The next second, like a holographic image with a poor signal, the golden-red greatsword in the white-haired man's hand suddenly disappeared, and even the aura of [Walter White] himself immediately weakened.

Upon seeing this, Durandal and Yae Sakura stopped what they were doing, unsure whether they should continue fighting.

"Walter! You loser, you actually dare to interfere with me!?"

As if to explain for the two of them, Shihen grabbed his chest and roared, his hoarse voice now tinged with ferocity.

"good chance!"

Without any intention of discussing martial ethics, Durandal rushed forward, attempting to seize the white-haired man.

But what greeted the blonde girl was a deep blue star.

He conjured an Eden Star and hastily flung it out. Taking advantage of the brief moment when Durandal was bound by gravity, Shihen's figure instantly soared into the sky.

"Once I've resolved the issue of the previous leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, I'll have some fun with you."

Furthermore, St. Freya is the most filthy and sinful place in Schicksal. Go and see for yourself, Durandal!

He uttered these words and simultaneously unleashed hundreds of silver Xuanyuan swords to slow the girl down. In an instant, Shihen disappeared into the horizon.

"Miss Durandal, then I shall take my leave!"

On the other side, Yae Sakura also spoke, and then sped away in another direction.

Looking at the night sky where she was now all alone, Durandal: "..."

Chapter 209 Sending Him to See the Thunder Dragon Horse

On a deserted island in Southeast Asia.

After each taking a long detour to avoid possible tracking, Shihen and Yae Sakura finally met.

"Thank you for your hard work tonight, Miss Sakura."

Looking at the pink-haired shrine maiden in front of him, still dressed in ninja attire, Shihen smiled and said.

After tonight, everyone will understand that Yae Sakura is a staunch rebel against [Walter White].

With a common enemy, the future alliance between the three parties can be more harmonious.

"As I have said, I simply have my own principles."

Faced with the boy's encouragement, Yae Sakura shook her head slightly.

Having lost two important people, she doesn't actually have a deep attachment to the present world.

She chose to help the boy simply because everything he had done so far aligned with her values ​​and beliefs.

“However…” As she spoke, a hint of hesitation appeared on Yae Sakura’s face, “Won’t my actions really cause you trouble?”

She remembered very clearly that when she first arrived in this era, the boy had told her to be careful.

But tonight... she revealed almost everything she could.

Even though this was something the other party had instructed her to do, Yae Sakura still felt uneasy, fearing that she might mess things up.

"Times have changed. Now it's more advantageous for me for you to be out in the sunlight than to be hidden in the darkness."

Shihen chuckled lightly.

Having become the only Walter, [Walter White] naturally needs to have some new pursuits so as not to give Otto too much to think about.

Moreover, he had to make the bishop understand that the Key of Corruption was not yet complete, thus eliminating any possibility of revealing his identity at this point.

There was nothing he could do; this broken system didn't even give him a clone skill, so Shihen had to do things his own way.

"……All right."

Nodding, Yae Sakura didn't delve any deeper into the matter, even though she still had some questions.

In terms of strategy and planning, she knew she was far inferior to the young man.

For example, tonight, whether it was Kiana and Mei from St. Freya, or the bishop from the Schicksal headquarters and Durandal, almost everyone's reaction was within the boy's plan.

Shihen gave Yae Sakura a comforting smile, then made a single gesture with his hand in front of him, and a door that seemed to connect to the starry sky instantly opened in front of the boy.

Although this body lacks the Holy Mark and cannot use the Heavenly Origin Domain to relocate the battlefield, it can still open a door to communicate with the Holy Mark space.

Hmm... why does this feel more and more like the Herrscher of Domination?

Shaking his head to shake off these inexplicable thoughts, Shihen flicked his fingertips, and a man with short brown hair fell out of the spatial portal. It was none other than Walter Yang.

Well, knowing that the other party could hide their consciousness in the core of a Herrscher, the boy would naturally be wary of this move.

Therefore, the moment he defeated his opponent, he used the power of Jizo Mitama to force Welt out of the core.

As for why Shihen chose to run away at the end of the battle with Durandal, the reason is actually very simple:

Can't beat it!

As the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny, Durandal's status is quite high.

Even with two Herrscher Cores at his disposal, Shihen was still helpless against the Herrscher when he could only use Herrscher powers.

After all, the other Divine Keys are almost useless to Durandal, and Time Mark cannot truly mimic the Heavenly Judgment in battle.

If he did that, his soul-steel body would melt first.

Otto was able to use his Soul Steel body to mimic the Heavenly Fire in battle because the Void Treasury's potential was not high to begin with.

The Heavenly Fire Greatsword, reconstructed using the power of the Herrscher of Reason, can utilize the zeroth rated power.

Even more advanced forms like the Cataclysmic Annihilation are within their grasp.

This is the difference between the Key of God and the Herrscher.

Of course, if he were to actually mimic the Greatsword of Annihilation, it's unclear whether he could defeat Durandal, but Shihen himself would definitely melt first.

Compared to his true form, his Soul Steel Body was far too fragile.

If he hadn't been too busy to change his account during this time, Shihen would never have used his Soul Steel body to fight Durandal.

For example, in the fight just now, if it had continued, it would have escalated to close combat, and then Durandal would have pinched his Soul Steel cheeks and made a squeaking sound.

The difference in basic attributes is too great. Even if Durandal stands still, Shihen would have a hard time breaking through the girl's defenses in close combat.

Even though she appears to be a beautiful and charming blonde mature woman, Durandal's inner strength is harder than diamond.

Moreover, if he doesn't find some problems with the core of the Herrscher of Reason, how can he legitimately give it to Yaya?

Shihen had absolutely no interest in the core of the Law of Reason.

Or rather, the boy was not interested in any of the Herrscher cores originating from the Cocoon of the End, because:

[New Player Quest - Gate of St. Freya: You have already witnessed the madness of this world. It's time to join a secret organization fighting against the Honkai and find a group of like-minded companions to save the world. (Completed)]

You have received a new reward: Godhood.

[Divine Body: Your body can accommodate exotic energies.]

This is the reward that Shihen received after joining St. Freya and completing the true beginner quest.

Unlike the previous abilities, this time the description of the [Divine Body] is extremely concise, without even explaining what alien energy is.

It wasn't until Shihen obtained the core of the Herrscher of Reason and triggered the [Body of God] that he finally understood that those cores from the Cocoon of the End were actually all alien energy.

Conversely, the power awarded by the system was deemed to belong entirely to him.

Clearly, this is a silent reminder from the system: keep your distance from the core of the cocoon of the end, because acceptance is not the same as assimilation.

If Shihen wants the authority of a Herrscher, he can only use the Blank Herrscher Core Synchronization, which is what truly belongs to him.

The system was reminding him not to be branded with the mark of the Cocoon of the End.

Therefore, in the battle with Durandal just now, Shihen actually only used the Herrscher of Reason core as a tool and did not truly become the Herrscher of Reason.

As for stealing... no, I mean borrowing the treasure-hunting line, [Walter White] is a villain, so it's only natural that he would lie and deceive people, right?

The best course of action for now is to continue to lie low and wait for the next Herrscher to slowly arrive.

Shihen couldn't help but sigh.

The current Herrscher sequence is only at the third level; many of the powers haven't appeared yet.

He had a premonition that the system wouldn't be able to provide many blank Herrscher cores, so he had to carefully choose each authority.

"How is Chi You?"

As he asked, Shihen took out the two Herrscher cores from the body, put them in small boxes, and casually tossed them into the Stigmata space.

The space is filled with a large amount of Honkai energy. Although the Stigmata Space cannot store very ordinary items, the Herrscher Core is obviously not among them.

It's quick and easy to use, highlighting its simplicity and convenience.

"Chi You's emotions are relatively stable, but..."

As she spoke, Yae Sakura showed hesitation on her face.

"Just what?"

Shihen pressed for an answer.

"She... eats too much."

Yae Sakura looked embarrassed.

Despite having the same loli-like figure as Ji Lin, her appetite seemed bottomless.

These past few days, she's been wandering around Shenzhou with Chi You, and he's almost eaten up her and Fei Yu Wan's half-year budget, causing Fei Yu Wan to frequently argue with this Judgment-level Honkai Beast.

Shi Hen: “…”

As one of the superior species, Chi You clearly does not need to eat; he can keep moving as long as there is Honkai energy.

"Forget it, let her be. I'll just approve more funding for you."

He waved his hand dismissively.

He holds the financial power of the World Serpent Organization, so how could he not even afford to support a single Judgment-level Honkai Beast?
