The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

Chapter 331 For the one I love...

"Hit!"

Velvet patted the console lightly, but her expression didn't seem very excited.

"I'm sorry, Hua..."

At that moment, no one had time to save Hua. They could only use the Moonlight Throne to try. I don’t know how Hua is doing now?

But I couldn’t care less about that.

"Tch! Next time, I must remember to install an air conditioner... No, why don't I install the Moonlight Throne and the Key of the Fifth God together? Or just make Kevin the core of the Moonlight Throne..."

The space inside the engine is already small, and because the Moonlight Throne is running at full power, extremely high temperatures suddenly accumulate. Velvet wiped the sweat from her forehead and muttered to herself while typing the code with her hands. As the Enter key was pressed, the Moonlight Throne engine began to cool down rapidly.

"May, how's Mikael's Honkai reaction going? Has it dropped a lot?"

Around Mikael, a large amount of heat energy escaped completely distorting the nearby light and shadow, making people only see an abstract color. But this is enough. This at least proves that the Moonlight Throne hit the target perfectly and achieved the effect of converting Honkai energy.

However, Mei didn't seem to show any emotional fluctuations from beginning to end, so Velvi took a few more glances at the light and shadow distorted by the heat energy, fearing that she had seen it wrong.

"not so good."

Mei finally spoke. She wasn't pretending to be serious, she was just waiting for the energy meter index to stabilize.

"Uh... what do you mean not very good? How much energy was converted by Mikael? Twenty percent? Or ten percent?"

"No...only, two percent."

After the words fell, the light and shadow distorted by the heat energy quickly stretched and straightened, returning to normal. And Mikael just stood there, unchanged.

Well...except there's an extra person in front of me.

"Kevin..."

Mikael silently grabbed the spear behind him that had never been used once before, thought about it, and inserted it back into the moon soil.

Correspondingly, Kevin also inserted the skyfire sword, which was constantly dancing with flames, into the ground at his feet. His lips were pursed into a line, and his brows were furrowed inward, but there was no sparkle in those blue eyes, nor any emotion that could be called human.

The wind flowed again on the airless back of the moon, making the flames on the sword and the hem of the coat rustle together.

"What, are you finally getting serious?"

Mikael snorted.

Kevin did not answer directly. Rather than asking and answering questions, it is better to say that the two of them said their own things:

"I don't care what you want to do, but I know what I should do - beat you here, or be killed by you here."

Mikael's brows wrinkled and then relaxed, he bent his knees, and suddenly kicked the Ninth God Key at his feet backwards like a ball.

Dozens of kilometers away, Su Xin, who had just pulled out the Sixth God's Key from the body that had been burnt to ashes for a thousand calamities, felt something. He instinctively turned his body to one side, and the Ninth God's Key almost brushed against his body. The braid passed by and fell not far from his side.

"It's so courageous to say something."

Mikael nodded in approval and raised the corners of his mouth twitchingly:

"It's just that it's too outrageous——"

Mikael's pupils suddenly shrank, and the next moment, his chest sunk without warning, his cheeks bulged outward, and blood spurted out from his mouth.

Before it was over, a blood line suddenly appeared on the skin of his right arm, and then the entire right arm fell to the ground silently.

His knees bent downward, and his whole body seemed to have been flattened by a slap from the top of his head. The bones were squeezed together, and some sharp joints even broke through the skin and poked out, making him even shorter in height.

In an instant, no one could figure out what happened, as if Mikael suddenly fell into a dying situation.

"What...what is this? A side effect of being hit by the Moonlight Throne?"

The change happened so suddenly. It’s unclear whether Mikael expected it, but Kevin, Mei, and Velvet obviously didn’t expect this to happen.

"No, it shouldn't be the Moonlight Throne. The Moonlight Throne is a pure energy conversion engine. Even if it works, it only converts Honkai energy into heat energy. It won't cause such specific damage..."

"Is it invisible?"

But this weird scene did happen, as if a completely invisible person gave Mikael three heavy blows without everyone knowing.

However, apart from the power of wind, no one can think of any other "invisibility" method, but that method cannot cover up the overflowing Honkai energy. Moreover, the only person present who controls the power of wind is Mikael himself. .

So what is this?

"Wait a minute, Mei, I have some suspicions."

Mikael was trapped in place by this sudden injury, unable to move. The expression on his face kept changing, as fast as turning the pages of a photo frame by frame.

Logically speaking, this was a good opportunity to attack, but Kevin didn't rush forward. Of course he longs for victory. At this point, a victory obtained by dishonorable means is naturally a victory. However, things happened too coincidentally and too strangely. Without being able to figure out the principle, Kevin would rather put it away. Think of it as Mikael's strategy to lure the enemy, and you can't take risks.

He did not hesitate to die, or in other words, he only wanted to die. But as the last hope of mankind, he cannot easily ruin all this.

And Mikael's injuries are being repaired at an incredible but visible speed - the depression in his chest quickly swelled back, the gushing blood began to flow back, the right arm on the ground floated up and returned to the original path, and the body began to He became taller again, and the protruding bone spurs shrank back.

Even if we want to attack now, it is too late as time is running out. It is better to analyze the principle of this phenomenon and explore the possibility of replicating it.

Of course, this is also based on the fact that everything is not difficult to guess——

"Obviously, there are three injuries in total. The sunken feeling in his chest is consistent with his previous attack when he hit the basin. Although I don't know what the second injury to his right arm is, it's so fast and accurate. Only Sakura can do it with swordsmanship. As for the third part... except Kosma after the collapse, I can't imagine anyone else can do it."

"Huh? You want to say that the first one is the 'feedback' from Su's Karma Wheel to Mikael, and the other two are the injuries left by Sakura and Kosmo?"

May easily figured out Kevin's subtext.

"Well, but the problem is, these injuries that should have appeared on Mikael in the past, why..."

"I see!"

Mei lightly clicked her knuckles on the table three times. In this way, it is not difficult to guess the principle of Mikael's method of avoiding attacks. If it is an attack that the imaginary number barrier has no time to block or cannot block, he will most likely use With the power of time, injuries that should have been taken immediately can be transferred to a later period of time.

But... why did it break out at this time? Is it a simple coincidence that the time to transfer the injury has come, or is it the influence of the Moonlight Throne's previous attack that was almost "useless"?

Since no conclusive evidence can be given, Mei cannot give any proof from the perspective of rigorous scientific analysis, but she believes more in the latter case.

It’s not a matter of selective belief, but a very simple logical question——

It has been less than two hours since the war started, and even the charging of the Second God's Key still takes more than ten minutes to complete. For Endy who can turn time back to the beginning of civilization, is it necessary for him to take the risk of affecting subsequent battles and transfer his injuries to such a short time?

Let alone two hours, why not five hours or one day? For someone who can reincarnate for tens of thousands of years, these differences are negligible, right?

Unless Mikael is out of his mind.

As for what kind of changes the Moonlight Throne Engine caused to Mikael's body, so that injuries that should have appeared much later appeared earlier? Mei has a rough guess that time is an unreasonable power. This is true, but because of this, its existence in the world of real numbers with perfect laws is quite fragile - just like the thin layer of ice on the river in early spring. generally.

Although the Moonlight Throne only converted 2% of the Honkai energy in Mikael's body into heat energy, the change in this part of the energy occurred in an instant. Moreover, although the proportion seems to be small, the energy actually converted is equivalent to more than a hundred times the total energy consumed by Mikael in the previous more than an hour of fighting.

Therefore, if we look at it in actual terms, the fluctuations caused by this energy conversion are not insignificant.

It's as if someone threw a pebble at the thin ice. The pebble is not much different from a drop in the ocean to the entire river, but it is enough to break the ice into pieces, or at least make a large ice surface appear. Hairline cracks.

As a result, the balance of time power in the world of real numbers is broken, and the cause and effect that was originally delayed by time power happens in advance.

Of course, all this is Mei's conjecture. Maybe the principles are completely different, but is there a difference?

The Moonlight Throne has one and only one ability, which is to convert Honkai Energy into heat energy. There are no other possibilities.

Of course, there is indeed an element of gambling in this, but humans have reached such a point that there is no room for hesitation.

Based on this assumption, Mei quickly had the prototype of a new combat plan in her mind.

However, Mikael should also be wary, so he must go further than before——

"Vilvi, please lift the power limit of the Moonlight Throne, and then follow my command to fire."

"knew."

It was rare for Velvet to give such a concise and non-exaggerated response. She knew very well what the lifting of the power limit of the Moonlight Throne engine meant to her.

But... no one has a choice.

What's more, in the middle of the basin, Mikael has recovered as before. No one could have imagined that he looked miserable and dying three seconds ago.

"call……"

Kevin breathed a sigh of relief.

It was a really strange feeling. He clearly couldn't control time, but he felt that the flow of time was extremely slow at this moment.

Closing his eyes and feeling his heartbeat, he could imagine more and more dark blood rushing towards his heart, until it completely enveloped and corroded the hot beating heart——

Everything went smoothly as never before. Perhaps, this was also the first time he fought without any distractions from beginning to end.

Fight for what? To protect Mei? To save some people? Or to save a civilization?

No, there is no need to consider any of this. At this moment, he only knows one thing, he only knows what he should do -

fighting! Either return victorious or die defeated!

"Kevin, I need you to hit a blow that Mikael can't stop with the imaginary barrier, please!"

In a trance, Mei's voice came vaguely, Kevin did not respond, and Mei did not need a verbal response.

The flames on the Skyfire Great Sword were extinguished in an instant, and the blue-frost cold air surged endlessly from Kevin's body, almost freezing the God Key.

Then, he slowly opened his eyes and raised his head. Among the dim features, only a pair of eyes exuded a faint blue light.

He took a step forward, and the broken hair on his forehead swayed slightly. It seemed that in just one frame, there was a black cross star between his bangs. Two horns shot out from the top of his head. Black claws, The arm spikes, the black flesh wings growing out of the torn left shoulder, and the long tail completely declared that he had broken away from the definition of "human".

But his changes were not limited to himself. As the coldness around him climbed, the Seventh God's Key, known for its "destruction", gradually dimmed and was almost frozen. But at this moment, it seemed to feel the thoughts of the holder. Its temperature was rising steadily, and a series of red crystals precipitated on the originally neatly contoured sword.

"Jie Dei... No, it's not enough!"

Dark blood surged out from Kevin's wrist and quickly flowed into the core of the Seventh Herrscher along the hilt of the sword.

The dark blood wrapped around the long-dead core like a thread, and then, it was completely connected to Kevin's heart, and it beat together with Kevin's heart.

The calamity changed again. This time, it could barely maintain the outline of the sword. The sword head bent out to both sides, forming a double fork similar to the spear in Mikael's hand. Dark corrosion also spread on the sword.

As a result, the Seventh God's Key came to life completely, but in another way.

The blazing flames that once were gone forever are now hot and cold at the same time, weird and dangerous.

"This is...the last battle!"

As soon as the words fell, Kevin's figure rushed directly in front of Mikael. Wherever the blazing sword tip touched, no imaginary barrier could survive even a tenth of a second.

"Um?"

Mikael's brows wrinkled and then relaxed quickly.

Because Kevin's seemingly unstoppable blow finally stopped in front of the last layer of imaginary number barrier.

The hard expansion was like a plastic film that sunk inward, as if it would be pierced by a hot sword the next moment, but after Mikael stretched out his hands to reinforce it, the barrier was finally stabilized.

"Kevin, is this all you can do?"

"snort!"

Kevin leaned forward, maintaining a forceful posture so that his facial features were facing downwards, making his face unclear.

But when he raised his head, Mikael saw a sneer on his lips.

"Creak - creak - creak -"

The sound of stiff chewing sounded, and Mikael turned his head to look to the side and behind in disbelief, only to see a monster that had shrunk to the size of a baby, without even a lower body, chewing the imaginary barrier at the same time, and himself in its hands. of a leg.

"Kosma!"

"Click——"

The last imaginary number barrier made a crisp sound, and then exploded overwhelmed.

At the critical moment, Mikael turned his body to dodge, and then his arm suddenly turned into a thread attached to the power of space, giving Kosmo the final blow.

But Kevin was too fast to make unnecessary movements, and rushed thousands of meters away in the blink of an eye. He condensed a huge ice wall on his impact route. He jumped up and stepped on the ice wall. The huge impact caused the entire ice wall to shatter instantly, but it had completed its mission and gave This gives Kevin the possibility of a counterattack.

"Mikael!!!"

"whispering sound!"

The corners of Mikael's mouth twitched, and he picked up the spear beside him with his backhand and rushed towards Kevin without hesitation.

"puff--"

There was no fancy explosion. The flaming sword head pierced Mikael's heart, and the red spear tip also pierced Kevin's heart. The two of them stirred their weapons against each other, and at the same time they were going crazy from the severe pain. The ground roared meaninglessly.

"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

Suddenly, Kevin stopped turning the hilt of the sword, and instead sent all the Honkai energy in his body into the God Key——

"Skyfire—unsheath!"

"boom!"

"Cough cough cough cough!"

Kevin's legs and feet went weak. Even with the support of the God Key, he still fell to his knees in pain. The dark blood scabbed quickly under the traction of Honkai energy, but recovery from the injury was not that easy.

"Did I succeed? Mei...did I succeed?"

The blow just now kicked up a large amount of smoke and dust, completely blocking his sight and unable to be dissipated for a while, but what Kevin could be sure of was that there was nothing in front of him, and there was no trace of Mikael at all. Logically speaking, he should be happy. Not seeing Mikael means that the attack he just made... was successful, right?

But he couldn't be happy...

If he did kill Mikael, it wouldn't be something to be happy about at all.

But he felt even more that he failed to do it - because in the spiritual communication network, he did not hear the cheers of Mei and the others.

Instead, there was the sound of rapid and deep breathing.

"What happened?"

After he asked this question, almost ten breaths passed before he heard Mei say with a deep sense of powerlessness:

"Kevin...he is right in front of you."

"before?"

Kevin once again looked at the space in front of him, which was empty.

Suddenly, he noticed that the light and shadow around him was a little dim. Before he had time to think, a strong wind blew by, and the smoke and dust instantly dissipated without a trace. Even Kevin was almost blown away.

And when he finally realized something and suddenly raised his head, what he saw was...

A familiar white figure.

A huge white figure.

The white halo condensed into a divine crown above his head, and further above, a fine black and red aperture quickly replaced the entire universe within the visible range.

Golden light spurted out from his shoulders, with a hint of blood, and finally condensed into three pairs of open wings of light behind him.

Then, the blood-red cross-star-shaped pupils stared intently at Kevin, and seemed to stare at the entire planet.

If the earth is like an apple in front of him and needs one hand to hold, then the moon is only the size of an egg in front of him.

"Gulu..."

Kevin swallowed hard, knowing that all his efforts might be in vain.

"Kevin...retreat...we have no chance of victory."

Kevin, who is facing the end, knows this clearly.

but……

"no!"

He flatly refused.

"You use the Second God's Key to leave first, and I'll break it off, otherwise no one can leave!"

"Kevin! I..."

"Stop talking, otherwise none of us will be able to leave."

"No, Kevin, it will take five minutes to recharge the Second God Key."

"...Then it seems...the only option is to give it a try. Mei, is your previous plan still useful?"

Mei did not answer. It must be useful, but she is not sure what the specific effect will be.

"But, Kevin, you just used the Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment, and you have no chance! And your body, your injuries..."

No, there is more!

Kevin held the big sword with both hands, and the skin that was originally covered in dark blood actually had a gray-white shell, looking like a Honkaimon!

But as he stood up, both the gray-white shell and black blood poured into the Seventh God's Key crazily.

Even the impurities in the outer shell of the great sword flowed back toward the core in the form of energy until the core was filled and filled again, and finally almost exploded.

On the screen in front of Mei, the output power of the Seventh God's Key soared. When Kevin returned to the appearance of that ordinary boy, when the God's Key also shed all its impurities, it restored the appearance of Jie De. At this time, the output power stayed at 400%.

"The demon of karma enters the abyss to save the world... draw your sword!"

He pulled up the robbery from the ground and stood it up in front of him.

All the power in the body has been drained away, his vision is dark, his consciousness is groggy, and he has almost forgotten why he is standing here.

In a daze, he saw Mei standing in front of him, turning around and giving him a smile.

So he unconsciously showed a happy smile.

"Mei...this blow is not for anything else...just...

"For the one I love..."
