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

Without the slightest hesitation, Mei transformed into her Herrscher of Thunder form and burst through the window like lightning, drawing her Seven Thunders of Purification to meet the massive sword energy.

boom!

In an instant, two enormous and unparalleled energies collided violently, and the terrifying aftershocks caused the floating warship behind Mei to tilt and fly backwards for hundreds of meters.

"Yae Sakura!"

With a flick of her longsword, Mei dispersed the aftershocks in front of her, and her gaze fell on the pink-haired shrine maiden not far away. Her pretty face immediately turned serious.

Now that Yae Sakura has already stepped forward, Welt White's plan is undoubtedly progressing smoothly.

"It's been a long time, Mei-san."

Yae Sakura greeted him with a smile, deftly twirling her brand-new blue katana.

"Where is Kiana!?"

With a sharp shout, Mei simultaneously flashed forward, her long sword crackling with dazzling lightning as she slashed at the shrine maiden with all her might.

when!

With a horizontal slash of his katana, he blocked Mei's attack, and the bright blue arcs of electricity caused the pink hair tied behind the shrine maiden's head to fly up instantly.

Feeling the terrifying power emanating from Mei's sword, Yae Sakura couldn't help but smile with satisfaction: "It's been a long time. Mei-san's power has completely surpassed mine."

With the complete authority of the Herrscher of Thunder, coupled with the highly compatible Divine Key, the Seven Thunders of Purification, Mei at this moment is undoubtedly superior to ordinary Herrschers.

Not to mention, Yae Sakura's Herrscher core does not possess any powers, making her naturally weaker than other Herrschers.

"Then answer my question and obediently move aside!"

With a low shout, Mei unleashed a series of fierce and unparalleled slashes at the shrine maiden before her, the blinding lightning forcing Yae Sakura to retreat.

"The former is fine, but the latter..."

While struggling to defend against Mei's attacks, Yae Sakura shook her head and gave a wry smile. "Miss Kiana is in the location you all know. As for the reason... if you sense carefully, Miss Mei should be able to guess the truth without much difficulty."

A powerful slash forced Yae Sakura back, and Mei's gaze fell on the bright thundercloud that was still faintly visible even from a hundred miles away.

Subtle arcs of electricity pulsed, and wave after wave of electromagnetic waves spread outward, transforming into Mei's eyes and ears as the Herrscher of Thunder, bringing the girl messages from afar.

Mei quickly sensed a kind of suppressed volcanic heat hidden in the thunderclouds, and her expression changed instantly.

"Despicable!"

Unable to contain her anger, Mei cursed, her purplish-red eyes flashing with lightning.

In her conversations with Tesla and others, she also expressed concern about the missing Disease Gem.

After all, even among all the Herrschers, the Herrscher of Flame is second to none in destructive power.

If this Plague Gem were to fall into the hands of a demon like Walter White, who knows what kind of tragedy it would cause.

But now... those worries seem to be over.

Mei now understands what the World Serpent intends to do with the Plague Gem.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Mei, but I have my reasons for doing this."

In response to the black-haired girl's rebuke, Yae Sakura simply lowered her head slightly, holding her katana horizontally in front of her without showing any intention of backing down.

"Kiana trusted you so much..."

She took a deep breath, her face filled with deep sorrow.

Knowing the location of Kiana and the Plague Gem, she instantly understood why this silly girl was acting with Yae Sakura.

The thought of Kiana believing Yae Sakura's lies, risking everything to reach the location of the Plague Gem, only to find an empty Plague Gem in the end...

Mei pressed one hand to her chest to suppress the rising anger. She simply couldn't imagine the despair and pain Kiana must have felt at that moment.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Mei."

Sensing the almost boiling rage emanating from the Herrscher of Thunder before her, Yae Sakura merely sighed softly.

She couldn't fully understand the boy's behavior either.

But it is precisely because she understands the limitations of her own abilities that she has such unwavering faith in the boy.

The facts have proven that the boy's concern for Kiana was undoubtedly above all others, even though he was also the one who orchestrated most of the tragedies in the girl's life.

……

Thinking of this, Yae Sakura couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Sigh! This world is just too complicated. When will she be able to stay at the shrine and become a true shrine maiden?

"Yae Sakura! Get out of my way!"

This is the last time I'm warning you; I don't want to kill you yet!

She whispered, a lightning-like determination flashing in Mei's eyes.

Although she was quite concerned about the matter between Kiana and the boy, as Kiana's best friend, she did not want the boy to suffer such a painful fate.

Even if Kiana did something wrong, she should be the one to give the other party a good beating, not to be tortured by Welt White.

Swish!

A flash of blue light appeared as Yae Sakura wielded her katana and slashed at Mei with all her might.

Faced with the Herrscher of Thunder's final announcement, the priestess chose to respond with action.

In an instant, the battle between the two Herrschers intensified, with crimson lightning and blue blade light illuminating the surrounding area as if it were daytime.

Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Shadow of the Serpent and the White Mask Beneath the Abyss

Haiyuan City.

When Theresa and the others arrived at the Eye of the Abyss, they found a bottomless, deep void.

In that abyss that seemed capable of swallowing one's soul whole, a purplish-red substance slowly rotated, forming a vortex that pulled everything around it toward the abyss, as if some giant monster on the other side of the quantum sea was opening its mouth to suck it up.

As the crimson abyss devoured everything, a large number of dark, shadow-like Honkai Beasts surged out of the abyss, wreaking havoc on the buildings and facilities within Sea Abyss City, and engaging in fierce battle with the mechs on guard near the Eye of the Abyss.

Seeing that Annie was surrounded by Honkai Beasts, Theresa immediately flew forward, wielding Judah to slap away the crab-like quantum shadows, and shouted, "Annie! Calm down! Don't be so impulsive!"

She had seen enough people on the battlefield who became self-destructive because of the death of someone important to them, and naturally did not want Xing to follow such a path of self-destruction.

But faced with Theresa's intervention, Anne merely frowned and rubbed the parts of her body that were still aching from the impact of the quantum shadow. She then bared her teeth at the nun and said, "You little brat, stop lecturing me! I'm going to..."

Snapped!

Before the girl could finish speaking, a loud slap landed, leaving Xing speechless.

Anguish first flashed in her eyes, then Xing's expression quickly turned fierce: "Bronya!!"

That slap just now was delivered by that gray-haired loli.

Staring angrily at the gray-haired girl who still had a blank expression, Xing raised the black sword shaped like a pointer and thrust it at her without hesitation.

A dark blue short sword appeared in her hand, parrying the black sword. Bronya advanced instead of retreating, and in an instant, she knocked Xing down and pressed her to the ground.

Even though her physique hasn't changed at all, Bronya's combat abilities have improved significantly, and she has already pulled ahead of Xing by a clear margin.

Even if people joke that St. Freya's atmosphere is too lenient, as Schicksal's second-best Valkyrie training institution after the headquarters, its teaching level is something that Anti-Entropy, which specializes in mecha technology, can't possibly compete with.

"Bronya! Let me go right now!"

Despite her face being pressed against the ground, Xing continued to shout loudly and struggle with all her might.

"And then you're sending them charging into the Honkai Beasts' encirclement to their deaths!?"

Using all her strength, Bronya pressed Xing down firmly and shouted in a deep voice.

"..."

Upon hearing Bronya's words, Xing paused for a moment, then her expression quickly hardened again. "So what! I'm going to kill that bastard!!"

The thought of Cocolia, who had always cared for her like a mother, being brutally murdered by Walter White made Anzu want to tear that man to pieces.

Even if she is weaker than him, she will fight to the death to take a piece of flesh from that guy!

"If that's all you're capable of, then Bronya will break your legs!"

With a deep voice, Bronya increased the pressure on the girl's legs.

"Bronya, my sister~"

Upon hearing this, Seele, who was standing to the side, immediately looked worried.

Unaffected by Seele, Bronya simply stared intently at Xing's stubborn face, her expression becoming more stern.

She knew very well that if Xing was allowed to act freely, the only outcome for her would be self-destruction.

Bronya held Xing down tightly and felt her body tremble slightly. She whispered, "Think about your mother. She wouldn't want to see you die in vain."

"But Mom is dead! She was killed by that bastard!"

She cried out in a voice trembling with tears, and Xing's eyes instantly became moist and misty.

"Bronya assures you, that guy will pay for this, it just might take a while."

As she spoke in a deep voice, Bronya loosened her grip on Xing slightly.

Raiden Ryoma, Welt Young, Siegfried, Cocolia... [Walter White] has committed countless sins and evil consequences.

If the opportunity arises, Bronya will definitely repay the other party as soon as possible.

However, knowing the disparity in strength between themselves and their enemies, the Ural Silver Wolves, who once dominated the Siberian region, also understood the importance of patience.

Shouting without any real power to back it up will only hasten your own demise.

"..."

Hearing Bronya's promise, Xing finally gave up struggling and let out suppressed sobs.

On the other side, seeing the enormous abyss from which quantum shadows kept emerging, Einstein couldn't help but frown: "Damn it! Has that guy completely shattered the boundary between the real world and the quantum sea?!"

Having spent a long time exploring the ruins of Haiyuan City, she was well aware of the scale of doors that the facilities within Haiyuan City could open.

Moreover, even just looking at the broken edges of the abyss before her, she could imagine how brutal [Walter White]'s methods of entering the Sea of ​​Quanta were.

That guy has absolutely no regard for cultural relics or organizational assets!

"Dr. Einstein! The Honkai Beasts outside Abyss City have also been attracted here!"

Peggy shouted as she directed the mechs to build a defensive line.

As a large-scale facility that operates on Honkai energy, Abyss City itself has a fatal attraction for Honkai Beasts, not to mention now that the Quantum Sea barrier has been breached.

In the eyes of the Honkai Beasts, the current Abyss City is like a cake emitting an enticing aroma, completely irresistible to them.

With quantum shadows constantly emerging from within and Honkai beasts hunting from the outside, even though there were quite a few mech units stationed in Abyss City, the entire battle line was rapidly becoming precarious.

"We need to get to the control room and close the gate to the Sea of ​​Quanta as soon as possible, otherwise it will swallow up half of the Sea Abyss City."

Noticing the urgency of the situation, Einstein's voice carried a hint of anxiety.

If the Quantum Sea Gate is normally open, then simply cutting off the energy supply to the Eye of the Abyss will cause the gate to lose its support and slowly close.

But the door that Walter White opened by force was just too big.

Before the gate closes due to the repulsion of real space, most of the Sea Abyss City will be affected and fall into the Sea of ​​Quanta.

Hearing Einstein's words, and glancing at the almost ubiquitous blooming flowers in Abyss City, Theresa thought for a moment and then said, "Wendy, you take Peggy and Einstein to the control room, and Xing will follow!"

Bronya, Seele, you two come with me to clear out the Honkai Beasts!

“Teacher Theresa…”

Upon hearing this, Wendy's face immediately showed hesitation.

But after only a few seconds of contemplation, the girl quickly accepted the situation and nodded, saying, "I will try my best to complete the mission."

Although Wendy longed to stay near the Eye of the Abyss in search of an opportunity to enter the Sea of ​​Quanta, she also understood that the most important thing right now was to protect Abyss City.

If they lose even Sea Abyss City, it will be very difficult for them to establish stable contact with the Quantum Sea and find the boy's whereabouts.

On the other hand, although Xing also preferred to stay around the Eye of the Abyss, when faced with Bronya and Peggy becoming stern at the same time, the girl still showed her "little brother" nature and obediently ran to protect Einstein.

They quickly split up, with Theresa leading Bronya and Seele toward the Eye of the Abyss to clear out the Honkai Beasts in preparation for closing the gates of the Quantum Sea.

Even with Judah at her disposal and a large number of tactical mechs to share the burden, Theresa still felt overwhelmed by the endless stream of quantum shadows.

"Headmaster, these Honkai Beasts are strange!"
