The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"Lord Cocolia, the Hyperion has broken through the last line of defense and is rapidly approaching the outer barrier of Abyss City! Their speed is too fast, and the mecha's maneuverability in seawater cannot keep up. Damn it, why are their warships He can dive so fast... He's coming over!"

In the war room, Cocolia's eyes were withdrawn from the radar screen, and then cast in the corresponding direction through the 360-degree surrounding glass. The seabed was originally just pitch black, even if the Haiyuan City operated by anti-entropy had extremely The complete lighting system can only illuminate a range of less than 500 meters outside the barrier. Beyond, there is a void that is deeper than the night.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

She counted down silently in her heart, and before she could count to "six", she saw a flash of blue light up in the darkness, like a shooting star.

There was no time to appreciate it, the Hyperion's sword-like bow broke through the darkness of the sea floor and appeared in Cocolia's sight.

During the pre-war deployment, she defied all opinions and chose to deploy 90% of the mecha troops to the three outer lines of defense in Haiyuan City. Now it seems that it was a wrong decision. The water would limit both sides' mobility and firepower - as it should. But the Moonlight Throne allowed Hyperion to break through the shackles of mobility. As for firepower... Hyperion didn't fire at all along the way, and only relied on speed to forcefully break through the defense line she deployed...

The only hope now is that the Hyperion must stop, recharge the main gun, and then blast open the last Honkai energy barrier of Haiyuan City. And if the recharging time is longer, it will give the mechas on the anti-entropy peripheral defense line time to come back...

"boom!"

The sudden shock made Cocolia almost bite off her tongue. Just like its shape, the huge ship directly penetrated the Honkai Impact barrier of Abyss City like a thin piece of plastic wrap—— Able to withstand the water pressure of six thousand meters below sea level for a long time, the Honkai energy barrier of Haiyuan City is naturally not "thin and brittle", but it was easily torn apart by the Hyperion...

Sea water and huge battleships poured into Abyss City. Even the barrier was "healing" quickly. It seemed that it was planning to jam the Hyperion, but it was a step too late after all. The good news is that at least the influx of sea water has been blocked, and no one will have to worry about drowning in a short time.

"Lord Cocolia, Haiyuan City cannot be defended anymore. Let's... evacuate first?"

The adjutant looked at Cocolia in panic, but could not see a trace of panic on the latter's face. He even saw a smile on the corner of her mouth... Could it be that Master Cocolia had a back-up plan?

"Why are you panicking?"

There was even a sense of relief in Cocolia's tone.

"Let's go. We haven't seen those two doctors for a long time. It's a bit unreasonable to just sneak away without saying hello, right?"

Ignoring the chaotic and noisy crowd in the situation room, she simply turned around and walked outside.

Others can cause chaos, but the adjutant and guard can only choose to keep up. If anything, they are all newly promoted candidates to replace the legendary Raven in the mercenary world who resigned suddenly not long ago. Although Cocolia will naturally tend to choose candidates who are more loyal to her, but There is no prerequisite for following for a long time. There is no essential difference between these people and those guys who are already in a mess and want to escape but don't dare to escape. The reason why they are still eager to keep up is due to professional inertia on the one hand and cocoa on the other. Leah definitely exhibits an “in control” attitude.

There are people who are stuck in the green stocks and refuse to let go, looking forward to the day when they rebound. Not to mention the current Cocolia, Haiyuan City is not her base camp, as long as she is not caught here by the Hyperion. The two anti-entropy doctors were captured alive, so it was just a small loss. They had been here for more than a month. If the two doctors came with the purpose of retrieving the alliance leader... that was nothing more than a small loss. It's just carving a boat and seeking a sword.

However, everyone was naturally not entirely confident. Several people followed Cocolia and looked at each other carefully. Finally, the newly promoted adjutant spoke for everyone, but she did not ask directly:

"Sir Cocolia had to go against all the opinions and arrange the mecha troops to the outer defense line. Everyone was still muttering in their hearts. Now it seems that Master Cocolia must have prepared a trap in Haiyuan City a long time ago, right?"

Cocolia's steps did not stop for a moment, she just turned her face slightly, and the corner of her eye didn't even glance at the adjutant, and then turned it back.

She scolded lightly:

"Oh, when Natasha was doing the work of a group of you by herself, she wouldn't be so talkative!"

"..."

The large group of people following Cocolia instantly fell silent. Not only were their breathing sounds suppressed to almost nothing, but even their footsteps were also the same.

Everyone knows that Cocolia is not a good-tempered person, and she is really dissatisfied with their work recently. As she just said, from the adjutant to the guard, Natasha used to be responsible for it alone. Now that there are more people, it becomes noisy.

However, as if he realized that the words he blurted out unintentionally were a bit hurtful, Cocolia waved his hand without looking back and added:

"Okay, don't say anything if it doesn't make sense. Let's go. This may be the last time I meet those two doctors."

As soon as this was said, the people following him, instead of being excited, became even more silent.

"Lord Cocolia, after all, those two doctors are also symbols of anti-entropy. Isn't this... not good?"

"hehe."

Without any clear words in response, Cocolia just sneered and turned back, as if looking for the person who had just spoken.

"Say one more thing...hum!"

Deliberately leaving some suspense, Cocolia quickened her pace.

The adjutant and the guards behind him looked at each other. They didn't feel offended by Cocolia's attitude. In other words, they felt it but were actively ignored. In the end, they became more and more confident in her.

Cocolia knew that the people behind her would be wrong, but so what, wasn't this the result she wanted?

It is extremely unwise to deploy most of the mechas on the outer defense line, even excluding the Hyperion's sudden change in dive speed. After all, the formulation of tactics itself must leave room to deal with "variables", and deploying almost all tactical mechas to intercept in an underwater world that is not actually suitable for mecha combat is a fool's errand.

But what if Cocolia did it on purpose?

There is no way, this is the mission of World Snake. It is the last order Natasha conveyed when she submitted her resignation to World Snake and Anti-Entropy at the same time. The order was extremely general. In short, there was only one sentence, that is, to She abandoned Abyss City and let the two doctors from the Hyperion and Anti-Entropy take over, and then...

It’s a really troublesome order, but this may indeed be the last time she meets the two doctors of Anti-Entropy, at least until Honkai is resolved. After this incident, she will be taken away and imprisoned by Anti-Entropy. , but World Snake will issue an extradition application to Anti-Entropy and does not rule out the possibility of using force, and then she will be placed in a safe place until the world is destroyed or the world is saved. This is World Snake's promise to her, some kind of In a sense, she did not deceive her subordinates.

Isn't it?

"Du-du-du-"

The red light kept flashing, so that the original black-gray color of the metal could no longer be seen on the armor wall next to the delivery port. The pile of dark purple-painted mechas in front of Bronya was also reflected into a crimson color like dusk. .

"You actually bumped in like that. Your colleague Mei... is really a lunatic."

Leaning against the hard and cold armored wall, with her right hand touching the tailbone that hurt from the bump just now, Bronya observed the external situation of Hyperion through the projection on her left arm.

It's not that she is nosy. Nowadays, the "human" combat power that the Hyperion can deliver is scarce. None of the remaining Valkyrie trainees have the ability to go to the front line. Himeko is prohibited from participating in combat. The physical condition of the remaining Valkyrie instructors is They are all similar to Himeko, so she, the only active B-class Valkyrie on the Hyperion, unexpectedly became the captain of a mixed combat team. Because the battle was carried out in a hurry, as the captain, she needed to observe at all times. Depending on external conditions, you can decide the appropriate delivery location by yourself. In terms of combat responsibilities alone, he is on par with Theresa, the principal in charge of the other route...

Although she felt...the perverse-looking woman beside her was more suitable than herself. Regardless of seniority or combat effectiveness - after all, he has lived from Mikael's time to now, so his brains and combat effectiveness must be at least the same, right?

The woman standing directly opposite her was fiddling with an exaggerated top hat in boredom. Of course, her appearance was also extremely strange. Her hair was divided by a line in the middle. One side was bright blond, and the other side was gray-green. Her dark golden color can be seen more clearly the more she is in a bright place. Like now, the red light above her head perfectly conceals the difference between her and normal people.

Hearing Bronya's voice, Velvet yawned exaggeratedly. She gently covered her mouth with her left hand, stretched her right hand high, and stretched her whole body. There was no urgency at all before the battle.

"Oh, you and Mei haven't been together for long, right? You can actually see through her essence at a glance? You know, those people's evaluation of Mei at the beginning was that the most normal one among 'us' was said to be 'the only normal person' 'It's not an exaggeration. The only ones you've come into contact with are Mikael, Hua and Mebius. I heard that Mebius is much gentler than before, but people still change, Mikael. Er and Hua Nei are the kind of people who look normal on the surface. Ah, Mei is the same, but it's just a little deeper than the two of them. In short, you can actually see this clearly in such a short period of time. A little bit, should I say that Mei has become crazier than before, or is your insight too sharp? "

"Let's not talk about anything else. I think you are very talkative."

"To be honest, you're not very good at chatting. You see, I'm praising you and criticizing Mei on the same front as you, but you just said this to me? It's a bit merciless. Bar?"

"..."

"Hahaha! I know what you are thinking. I am not the boring type like Mikael and Hua. I have been alone for 50,000 years. Please be considerate of me!"

Velvet's laughter echoed continuously in the narrow delivery port, but it was faintly overwhelming the red warning light. But Bronya felt a sense of violation. The air was constantly vibrating, but this vibration transmission was blocked by the heavy metal that made up the mecha and armor. Perhaps this was the source of the sense of violation——

"You are different from Mikael and the squad leader. You don't feel like a warrior to me..."

Bronya complained mercilessly while staring at the screen to find a suitable place to land.

"I'm not originally! Have you forgotten who modified the Moonlight Throne engine? And the moment I broke through the Honkai Impact barrier just now, if I hadn't upgraded your protective shield system, you thought it would be How can a junk like the Hyperion break through the Honkai energy barrier? He is just an average engineer, but he is outstanding in a certain aspect..."

"Isn't your statement contradictory...and what point do you have to do with being mediocre..."

Bronya curled her lips and retracted her wandering gaze. Of course she didn't say the second half of the sentence, she just read it silently in her heart.

Suddenly, she frowned, made a fist with her right hand, and slammed the huge button on the side——

"drop!"

The blood-red light suddenly turned green, making this claustrophobic space as weird as an old-fashioned night vision goggle. However, as the light changed, the hatch at the end of the delivery port quickly opened.

The green light flashed, and the sound of the hatch flipping into position was buried by the sound of the mecha starting from its dormant state, but this could not escape the eyes of Bronya, who was always paying attention to this scene.

"boom!"

She pressed another button again, and the track blockers under the mechas were released one second apart. In just two minutes, hundreds of mechas were thrown towards the weak ground defense of Haiyuan City. point.

"Since I'm the captain, you'd better hurry up and follow."

After giving the last instructions to Velvet, Bronya slammed her back against the armor wall behind her, and used the reaction force to jump forward. Seeing that she was about to brush past the last delivered mecha, she quickly He stretched out his arm and grabbed the small handle on the shoulder of the mecha. His body swayed in mid-air, and then he sat firmly on the head of the three-meter-tall mecha.

"Sigh... young people today are really very motivated."

Velvet put on her top hat gracefully, but did not jump down as Bronya asked. Instead, she turned her head and looked into the darkness deeper in the delivery cabin.

…………

"call……"

A glimmer of light appeared at the end of the long passage. Looking at this distance, it would only take a few steps to reach the outside of the Haiyuan City base. Cocolia also let out a long sigh of relief.

It was finally the end of everything, at least for her, it was the end of everything.

She had been ambitious in the past, and one of her subordinates even flattered her and called her "Little Otto." Although she fired that person directly, she was extremely happy in her heart. To be honest, it is too dramatic to go from such an ambitious character to voluntarily quitting the game.

But human beings will continue to change over time.

Before she became a careerist in Siberia, she was a soldier who hated evil, was upright but did not know how to adapt. She also punished superior officers who were involved in smuggling arms... Speaking of which, her life was changed by that incident. ah. Thanks to Colonel Alexei, she was falsely accused and imprisoned. If not for this, she would have died in the second Honkai Impact...

Coincidentally, Alexei's daughter turned out to be her adopted daughter... I might as well have a chance to see her again for a short time this time.

She was really tired. After being forced to join the World Snake, she actively and passively came into contact with too much information from previous civilizations, so she became tired and her ambitions dissipated.

Isn’t everything that is happening in his current era the destiny determined by those in the previous era? In the established storyline, if Cocolia doesn't want to die, she can just play her role honestly.

Uh... I'm tired, so let's leave it like this. It would be nice to have a decent ending.

Stepping into the light, Cocolia saw black dots hitting the ground one by one.
