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

Hearing this, Theresa couldn't help but sigh.

While it's true that Night Owl escaped from Seele's grasp, his cunning and decisiveness were truly remarkable.

What decent person would install a Honkai energy reactor inside themselves?

Even the Valkyries of Schicksal rely on armor and weapons when using Honkai energy; no one ever mentions installing a Honkai reactor on themselves.

It's fair to say that the owl never intended to survive from the very beginning.

"Professor Theresa, what do you think a Herrscher is?"

Wendy suddenly asked, her eyes filled with seriousness as she looked at the nun.

"Wendy, you..."

Meeting the girl's earnest gaze, Theresa's eyes flashed with surprise.

"If I had the power of a Herrscher during that battle, I might have been able to stop it all."

He said in a deep voice, Wendy's fists clenched tightly, and an intense resentment welled up in his eyes.

But this isn't your fault!

Theresa immediately retorted.

After Kiana's return, Einstein discussed with her the possibility of removing the Lust Stone, but the matter was ultimately shelved.

Even though Kiana can no longer use the power of the Gem of Desire, its existence within the girl's body remains quite stable.

If it is forcibly removed, there is no guarantee that no accidents will happen, and it may even cause some serious damage to Kiana.

Therefore, after careful consideration, anti-entropy chose to maintain the status quo.

Wendy was also aware of the various considerations behind anti-entropy, but faced with the nun's concerned gaze, she simply shook her head slowly and earnestly: "But if I were a little stronger, I could protect Hen from falling into this situation!"

As a soldier, one should not make excuses for one's own weakness.

Having been surpassed by Kiana and others, and now helplessly watching the boy fall into danger, Wendy's last shred of hope was completely shattered.

She had come to realize with absolute clarity that in truly important moments, no one else could be relied upon.

Without sufficient power, one can accomplish nothing!

"Teacher Theresa, we'll wait for Youhen and the others' news later. I hope to participate in this operation together."

Looking directly into the nun's blue eyes, Wendy spoke in a calm yet resolute tone.

"But……"

Theresa immediately tried to persuade him.

With several Herrschers present, Wendy's participation was completely unnecessary.

"Then, after this is over, I want to go back to New Zealand again."

Before the nun could finish speaking, Wendy interrupted her, her eyes showing no sign of wavering.

After re-examining herself, she understood where her weaknesses lay and what Mei meant by "knowing yourself."

This time, she will no longer run away from the past.

"Wendy..."

Seeing the unprecedented determination in the girl's eyes, Theresa was taken aback at first, then gave her a forgiving smile, "I will go with you."

Now that Wendy has the courage to face everything, her teacher will naturally not be absent.

After all, the fourth collapse that occurred six months ago was also a karmic consequence she had to bear.

"..."

Meeting the supportive gaze of her teacher, who was a good half a head shorter than her, Wendy didn't refuse but simply nodded slightly, a star-like glimmer shining in her azure eyes.

Chapter 112 The Queen of Thunder and Sky and the White Dumpling

Walking among the vast, boundless glaciers with her sword in hand, Mei couldn't help but furrow her brow slightly.

Although she successfully caught Kiana's teleportation at the last minute, that silly little dumpling clearly didn't send her to the right place.

At the very least, the ideal scenario of directly engaging the Herrscher of Ice in close combat and defeating her to her knees is completely impossible.

A faint electromagnetic wave spread out, and Mei felt a headache coming on as she sensed the countless fluctuations of Honkai energy, large and small, in the feedback information.

In this environment, her perception was far too limited, making it impossible for her to directly pinpoint the Herrscher's location.

Let's look for units with strong Honkai energy fluctuations first.

If we follow these targets one by one, we should be able to find the Herrscher of Ice soon.

With these thoughts in mind, Mei transformed into a beam of crimson lightning and disappeared into the distance.

Temple-class Honkai Beasts, Ice Honkai Emperors, Warlord-class Honkai Beasts...

Before long, after five secret technique points... no, after five targets were killed in succession, Mei finally found another Herrscher on this battlefield.

only……

"Insects! Bow your heads!"

"Now you set off immediately to find a human, understand?!"

Hearing that somewhat familiar arrogant voice, and looking at the white-haired girl in front of her who was using wind-colored chains to bind a knight-class Honkai Beast and trying to train it, Mei's lips twitched slightly.

"..."

Also noticing Mei, the Herrscher of Thunder, Sirin's gaze fell on the long-haired girl, and a smug smile immediately appeared on her lips. "It's been a long time, my half..."

boom--

Before the Queen of the Sky could finish her opening remarks, a sharp blade of light slashed down directly.

With a push of her hands, she summoned a huge wind blade to block the sword light. The two powerful energies immediately collided violently, and the terrifying aftershocks sent Sirin flying several meters away in an instant.

Enraged, but before Xilin could utter any more harsh words, another streak of crimson lightning struck.

"..."

Looking at the terrifying lightning that seemed poised to pulverize her, Sirin felt her anger rise to its peak.

She finally agreed to condescend to show that human some mercy, but not only did Kiana, that idiot, go against her in every way, but even Mei, her former half-human, was so rude to her.

As the mighty Queen of Honkai, how could she tolerate this?!

Let that human do whatever they want. If she doesn't establish a clear hierarchy with this half-human today, she's not the Honkai Queen!

Before Sirin could fully gather her power, a certain little dumpling that had been dormant deep within her consciousness immediately became active.

"Mei, wait a minute!"

Kiana, who had successfully grabbed the account, shouted urgently.

"Kiana?"

The lightning subsided, and a purple longsword came to a stop just in front of the white-haired girl. Mei couldn't help but show a look of confusion on her face.

"Mei, this is what happened..."

While suppressing the pufferfish lady who kept yelling that she wanted to beat Mei to her knees, Kiana quickly explained.

"...So, you really weren't taken over by the Herrscher of the Void?"

Looking at the white-haired girl with heterochromatic eyes, one gold and one blue, Mei couldn't help but ask, her expression suddenly turning strange.

If even the incredibly brutal Herrscher of the Void could be persuaded, isn't the boy going a bit too far?

"Ha, how naive, half-body."

This body originally belonged to me; it's simply being returned to its rightful owner.

Faced with Mei's suspicious gaze, Sirin immediately became arrogant.

"..."

Upon hearing that familiar tone, Mei's Seven Thunders of Purification instantly moved.

Nourishing ~

"Mei, no!"

Kiana quickly controlled her body and shouted.

If Mei were to fight the Herrscher of the Void, not only would it deplete their already limited and precious resources, but it would also delay their search for the boy.

"..."

Forcibly suppressing the urge to draw her sword, Mei's eyes flickered and she noticed something amiss. "Wait, Hen isn't with you!?"

Drawn to the resurgence of the Herrscher of the Void, she only now realized the boy's absence.

"Well……"

Kiana immediately lowered her head when the boy was mentioned.

No matter how she tries to explain, it is ultimately her incompetence that led to the boy's disappearance.

In an instant, the atmosphere between the two girls became heavy and oppressive.

"That's the ridiculous thing about your bond."

If it were me, that human wouldn't have gotten lost in the first place.

Noticing the somber atmosphere between the two, Sirin immediately adopted an arrogant attitude, a smug look on her lips, "But in the end, that guy is just a mere human. He's probably already been crushed and killed by some Honkai Beast."

"..."

Mei's expression immediately darkened, and she gritted her teeth before speaking in a suppressed tone of anger, "If you can't speak properly, you'd better shut up."

If she heard the Herrscher of the Void say a few more words, she felt she wouldn't be able to hold back her sword.

"Just half a body..."

Enraged by Mei's blatant threat, Sirin was immediately enraged.

Without letting the Herrscher of the Void continue, Kiana hurriedly grabbed another number: "Mei, there's no time to lose, let's split up and find the marks quickly."

Since everyone is a Herrscher and their movements won't be restricted by Honkai Beasts, it's naturally more efficient to split up and act separately.

Moreover, if the Herrscher of the Void were to be with Mei again, she feared that Mei would also kill her.

"No! Let's subdue the Herrscher of Ice together first!"

Mei shook her head and rejected the suggestion from the white fluffy ball.

"Mei?"

Kiana's face immediately showed confusion.

Although it deviated slightly from the intended location, there was still no one around and nothing that they needed to protect.

In this situation, the attack on the Herrscher can definitely be delayed a bit.

"Hen still carries the Star of Eden, so I believe he won't be defeated by ordinary Honkai Beasts."

Mei explained in a deep voice, her expression suddenly becoming serious, "Moreover, I can already vaguely sense the aura of the Herrscher of Ice."

On this battlefield, the Herrscher of Ice is undoubtedly the most dangerous target.

As long as the boy can be brought under control, there is no need to worry too much about his safety.

This is her trust in the boy.

Even though he didn't possess the power of a Herrscher like her and Kiana, the boy wasn't a fragile vase that would break at the slightest touch.

"If you want to fight that Herrscher of Ice, then go by yourself. I don't have..."

As she spoke leisurely, Xilin paused, her eyebrows immediately furrowing as she looked at the Seven Thunders of Purification blocking her way. "Your mere half-body..."

"I don't trust you, Herrscher of the Void!"

Without any hesitation, Mei stated firmly, leaving no room for negotiation, "Either come with me to find the Herrscher of Ice, or... I'll defeat you right now!"

Even though Kiana has gained considerable control over this body, she still can't completely let go of the past when she thinks about what happened.

Even if there is only the slightest possibility, she will not allow the Herrscher of the Void to harm the boy.

"It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature," and the Law of Emptiness is absolutely not to be trusted.
