Chương 151: Chapter 151: Herrscher of Stars! Rita's Fiasco! Li Sushang on the way!
Inside the World Serpent's base,
Standing outside Himeko's medical room, Kiana listened nervously to the woman in the white coat with a dog-headed mask, her expression filled with concern.
"The situation with Himeko has stabilized for the time being, and there's no immediate danger to her life."
"When can Teacher Himeko wake up?" Kiana asked.
"I don't know. She has already overstretched her body due to the artificial holy marks and then forcefully equipped the Blank Key. After that, she even fell into the void space. It's already fortunate that she's still alive."
"As for waking up..." Jackal maintained a pessimistic attitude. "It could be tomorrow, or the day after, or even longer, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"White Dove has already used the simulated white flowers to treat Himeko, but simulation is still just simulation, and the effect is not as good as the real thing. If we could get our hands on the Black Abyss White Flower, perhaps Himeko could wake up sooner."
But the Black Abyss White Flower was currently in the hands of Durandal. It wasn't that easy to obtain.
"Can the Serenity Gem work?" Kiana suddenly asked.
"It can work, but do you know how to use it?"
Kiana fell silent and turned her pleading gaze to the Queen of the Void in the consciousness space.
Help me out, the other me!
The Queen of the Void blushed and awkwardly turned her head away.
Um, even the Queen of the Void doesn't know~
Kiana: "..."
......
Chen Tianwu walked heavily on the street, his gaze vacant, his face pale, and his dazed appearance contrasting sharply with the pedestrians passing by.
He fell into serious self-doubt.
Leaving Anna's home, he walked alone in the street, occasionally stopping, looking back in Anna's direction, his pupils trembling slightly, his eyes extremely complex.
Having met Anna and seen her genuine reaction, Chen Tianwu seemed to have to admit a fact —
That dream didn't seem like just a dream.
An ordinary Valkyrie wouldn't have such strong emotional fluctuations when facing a completely familiar casualty.
People say humans are empathetic beings, but some also say that the hardest thing between people is mutual understanding.
When Chen Tianwu asked Anna about the news of Chen Tianwen, he kept paying attention to Anna's reaction.
At the mention of Chen Tianwen's name and seeing his photo, Anna's eyes subconsciously avoided, her explanation voice trembling slightly, appearing pale and weak. Although she tried her best to restrain herself, Chen Tianwu still noticed —
Anna felt guilty, self-blaming, regretful, and was also evasive.
Anna did abandon his sister. Chen Tianwu concluded this.
His heart sank to the bottom, his neck entangled by a snake, his feet seemingly stuck in mud. An unnamed anger rose from the bottom of his heart, but Chen Tianwu forcibly suppressed it.
What reason did he have to get angry at Anna when she saved his life!
After drinking a cup of hot tea, Chen Tianwu left that place of right and wrong.
He needed time to calm down. Thinking so, he withdrew his gaze from that place, but felt a force coming towards him, and with a slight misstep, he was knocked down by someone.
The suppressed anger surged again, he was about to erupt, but saw the man who knocked him down with a look of panic and fear on his face, scrambling to get up from the ground and immediately running away, paying no attention to Chen Tianwu who he knocked down.
Sensing something wrong, reason took over. Chen Tianwu seriously surveyed the situation around him and suddenly realized —
The Honkai had erupted.
The concentration of Honkai energy in the air soared in an instant, followed by the rampant howls of Honkai Beasts and the dead warriors who had just been human.
Smoke filled the air, heat spread through the air, frenzied beasts, fleeing crowds, collapsing buildings, everything seemed familiar.
Chen Tianwu stood blankly in place, continuously pushed and squeezed by the rioting crowd, pushed backward, and ignored whether he was about to fall or be trampled.
In the face of disaster, people were already struggling to save themselves, considering others? That was something only heroes thought about.
Chen Tianwu staggered back a few steps before regaining his footing.
He had to run!
After the Honkai in Manila, his body was severely eroded by Honkai energy. Although he had been treated by the World Serpent, most of his body had been replaced by mechanical tissue.
Even though this provided Chen Tianwu with some combat ability, he was still not good at fighting, so he had to run.
Turning around and stepping forward, Chen Tianwu was about to run in the direction of the crowd, but the surrounding light dimmed in an instant. He looked up and saw a peculiar Honkai Beast opening its mouth wide...
Chen Tianwu's vision plunged into a deep darkness, thick like a pot of thick medicinal soup, bitter, painful...
Death enveloped the world, no light, no sound.
Chen Tianwu lay on the void fulcrum, like a small boat drifting in the sea.
He looked blankly into the darkness, feeling it chaotic and pure, as if he had lost his cognitive ability, and his senses and perceptions had come to a halt.
Is this... the feeling of death? Isn't it painful to be swallowed by Honkai Beasts?
Perhaps this also had to do with his body being mostly mechanized.
But, is this death?
Then, in a world of nothingness, a cluster of light began to spread.
He saw the light take root, sprout, and grow. The newly born light in the void entwined and grew like tree roots, forming a large cluster of canopies.
Among the lush branches, leaves gathered into light once again...
.....
Not far away, the maid who had been tracking Chen Tianwu was also surprised by this sudden change.
In recent years, Honkai incidents had occurred frequently, large and small, and because of their randomness, it was difficult to control them. This was why Valkyrie squads were stationed all over the Destiny World.
But... happening at this moment, and happening to be around Chen Tianwu, was it just a coincidence?
And just as Rita was contemplating, an abnormality occurred nearby.
A Honkai Beast appeared almost out of thin air, swallowing Chen Tianwu, who was about to escape. The impact caused the surrounding buildings to Honkai directly, steel and concrete blocks, shattered glass, and other building materials pressing down on the people who were still screaming and fleeing.
Those unlucky were hit directly, sentenced to death on the spot, while those lucky enough to escape suffered more or less injuries, pinned down by the debris unable to escape...
Moans, wails, cries for help echoed in the streets, stimulating every soul.
Rita frowned slightly, paused, then looked at the Honkai Beast that had just swallowed Chen Tianwu. In her heart, she had already weighed the pros and cons, no longer thinking about it, and went straight to where Chen Tianwu was.
As an S-class Valkyrie, Rita had strong physical qualities. With the Valkyrie armor, she had already approached the Honkai Beast that had swallowed Chen Tianwu in just a few seconds, then...
With a swift motion, she cut open the Honkai Beast's abdomen.
During the Second Great Honkai, Walter Yang had torn open the abdomen of an Adjudication-level Honkai Beast in extreme anger. Now, Rita, in an extremely calm state, also cut open the abdomen of the Honkai Beast and successfully saved the unfortunate soul swallowed by it.
However, after cutting open the Honkai Beast's abdomen and seeing Chen Tianwu's condition inside, Rita felt an inexplicable chill in her heart.
"Valkyrie, you just abandoned someone who asked for your help again, didn't you?"
When Rita met Chen Tianwu's cold gaze, she admitted to herself that she had a bad feeling.
Maybe this time, she was going to mess up again, but this time, there was no transport ship to crash into herself!!!
......
There's a well-known theory called Schrödinger's Cat.
It refers to locking a cat in a sealed container with a small amount of radium and cyanide. Radium's decay exists as a probability, so due to the superposition of the radioactive radium's decay and non-decay states, the cat should be in a superposition state of being both dead and alive. This cat, which is both dead and alive, is called "Schrödinger's Cat."
However, it's impossible for a cat to be both dead and alive, so the result must be known after opening the container.
Just like Rita's action of cutting open the abdomen. Before cutting open the abdomen of the Honkai Beast, Rita didn't know whether Chen Tianwu, who was swallowed inside, was alive or dead.
Chen Tianwu was probably dead.
But no one told her that what she might get after cutting it open might not be the human Chen Tianwu, but...
The Herrscher!
Perhaps not fully awakened at this moment, but Rita wouldn't mistake this aura.
"Valkyrie, you just abandoned someone who asked for your help again, didn't you?"
Facing Chen Tianwu's question, Rita smiled on the surface, but in her heart, she was already cursing.
Sweet and greasy, playing tricks on me, huh?!
"Mr. Chen Tianwu, it's really good to see you're okay."
"Cut the nonsense, Valkyrie, answer my question!"
Chen Tianwu released his power without any concealment. The Herrscher, no, perhaps it should be said the Herrscher's authority appeared in front of the world again after a civilization era.
Not some side door like Eden's Star, but the true power of a Herrscher!
Rita couldn't help but break into a cold sweat on her forehead. She gripped her scythe tightly, her eyes shifting from panic to firmness.
Although it was somewhat difficult for her to face the Herrscher alone with her strength, and although she knew that if she chose to fight the Herrscher, she might be in danger of losing her life, she had no hesitation.
The power of the Herrscher, they had witnessed it during the previous civilization. No matter what, she couldn't let the drama of the continent sinking happen again now.
The newly awakened Herrscher was the easiest to subdue, but also the weakest. Even if she couldn't kill it here, Rita had to delay him.
Because heroes couldn't just flee at the sight of battle~
Just kidding~ Rita just needed to stall until the main force Li Sushang arrived.
..........
Li Sushang sat somewhat awkwardly on the sofa in the Gu family's home, drinking the tea brewed by Anna, feeling uncomfortable.
A bad start, a bad start!
"Miss Li Sushang, you don't have to be so restrained, just treat this place as your own." Chase smiled.
"Okay, okay." Li Sushang said awkwardly, "You're really nice."
"Of course, Otto has praised me before."
"Hey, do you know the old Otto?" Li Sushang was surprised, blinking her eyes, staring straight at Chase, almost writing "I'm curious" all over her face.
"Of course, we're old acquaintances, like father and son." Chase's smile was even more pronounced.
Of course, they were old acquaintances, as close as father and son. He added silently in his heart.
Anna sat silently on the side, listening quietly. When Chase mentioned Otto, she raised her ears slightly, especially when he said "like father and son", she turned her head to look at Chase, slightly tilting her head, full of disbelief.
She hadn't heard of Otto having such a close youth as a son...
But looking at Chase's appearance, it seemed that he wasn't lying... Strange, really strange. Could it be that the gossip system within the Valkyries had fallen so behind?
But it was also said that since the disappearance of Senior Shigure Kira, the gossip system within the Valkyries had not been restored until now. This felt like the football in Shinkoku had been declining since the death of Captain Takagi, and it still hadn't recovered until now.
Anna sighed again with emotion.
"Oh, that's why the Otto asked me to keep an eye on you. It turned out that you two had a conflict, and they were afraid you would do something impulsive, so they asked me to keep an eye on you." Li Sushang had already automatically filled in a series of plots from intimate father and son to father and son conflict, her eyes full of sincerity as she patted her big pillow, "So, I understand the Otto's intentions now. Let me act as a mediator for your conflict!"
"Huh?" Chase's expression at this moment was exactly like that of the bruh cat, but he quickly reacted and said hastily, "Oh, right, that's it, Miss Li Sushang, you are really clever~"
Chase was not stingy with his praise, and Li Sushang was also very pleased, patting her head and smiling.
"Hey, Chase, where's the bathroom? I want to use it."
"Oh, over there, turn left, and you'll see it at the end."
"Okay, got it."
Following Chase's instructions, Li Sushang had just entered the bathroom when she suddenly sensed something and looked up sharply in a certain direction.
That was... the aura of falling into darkness!
As the senior disciple of the Supreme Freedom Gate, Li Sushang had long heard a saying —
Those who fall into darkness must be punished!
"Chase, you and Anna stay here and don't move. I have some urgent matters to attend to, I'll be back soon." Leaving these words behind, Li Sushang jumped out of the window and left, ignoring whether Chase heard her or not.
Chase and Anna heard the commotion in the living room and followed, only to see Li Sushang's back. The two looked at each other.
