The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"Da da da--"

The bluestone road quickly came to an end, but Youlandale had no intention of stopping.

The sound of footsteps gradually changed from crisp to dull, with a hint of mud's unique stickiness. The black mud quickly covered the snow-white uppers of the shoes, and had to climb upwards, leaving traces on the same white uppers of the boots. There are countless spots under it.

"This bamboo forest...should be over here."

Youlandale turned his face back and waited for three seconds. After seeing no reaction, he walked directly from the dirt road to the slope on the side, jumped lightly, and rushed directly into the bamboo forest.

"There are a total of five main peaks in Taixu Mountain. I have already explored the main peak where the leader is located, and I have not found Kiana. I pretended to be close to the trestle connecting the three main peaks in the south, north and west. The people responsible for monitoring are just Following from a distance, this time before even getting close to the trestle, she couldn't help but reveal her presence... It seemed that Kiana was undoubtedly on the eastern main peak.

"Going directly through this bamboo forest is the shortest way to reach the trestle. Once you get on the trestle, unless you are willing to show up directly to block it, you will not be able to continue tracking and monitoring. In other words, the other party will definitely try to intercept before boarding the trestle. And this bamboo forest..."

"Wow——"

"Hey! Sixth! Did you see her over there?"

"No? Didn't Fifth Senior Sister stop her? She couldn't have reached the other side already... It's impossible to go so fast on such a long trestle, right?"

"Idiot! Did you forget what the intelligence said? Her armor can fly!"

The long trestle swayed from side to side, and the chains collided with each other, making a crisp "squeaking" sound. The shaking sound of the bamboo leaves was gentler, but to the two elders responsible for monitoring Hollandale, it sounded like summer. Mosquitoes at night are just as annoying.

"Damn it! This time I have to go to the Jianjian Hall to be punished... There must be something wrong with this destined woman! She dares to cause trouble on our territory! If only the head master hadn't beaten her back in the first place!"

"There is no way. We have been allies with Tianming for five hundred years. There is no reason to leave her in Tianqiong City. In theory, taking her to the mountain will make it easier to monitor... Damn it! I will continue to chase her to ensure that nothing happens to the Second Herrscher. Junior sister, please go back and report to Master, Youlandale’s goal is to be second..."

"What's wrong, Fifth Senior Sister——"

"Bah bang bang!"

Hollander clapped his hands habitually, then bent down, dragged the two unconscious elders to the edge of the bamboo forest, and leaned their bodies against the bamboo.

When the two elders followed them and rushed into the bamboo forest, she had already used the power of the Moon Soul Armor to fly over the bamboo forest, blocking the blind spot of their vision. When they thought she had reached the other side, she suddenly attacked and knocked them unconscious.

This is not a good trick, nor is it the way Hollandale likes to fight. The operation just now was because she suddenly remembered the assassination missions Rita had performed alone.

"I'm sorry, but this is my choice."

Hollandale skillfully crossed herself on her chest. She did not want to take action if necessary, but if the two elders were allowed to go back and report to Su Chang, she would not have time to implement the plan. Especially when Su Chang was alone, she still had confidence that even if she missed, it wouldn't be a big problem.

But with the three generations of Taixu masters gathered together, no matter how arrogant Youlandale was, he would not be stupid enough to think that he could escape from the encirclement and suppression of those three people. ơɱ

However, these small actions can only delay some time. Even if the next action goes extremely smoothly, she will not be able to escape from China's sphere of influence. She can only take Kiana and leave Taixu Mountain first, and then make long-term plans.

But in this way, she still broke up with Taixu Shan, and it was her, the most powerful Valkyrie who was destined to do it herself.

But...it doesn't matter anymore.

Do you really think that Youlandale can't see anything?

Miss Su Shang's trick is more like a conspiracy than a conspiracy. Her carefree temperament is the limit for coming up with such a method. Naturally, Youlandale also understands that if she continues to do nothing If so, Kiana's final destination can only be reverse entropy. This was destined since Su Chang did not choose to let her take Kiana away directly, but instead invited everyone to go back to Taixu Mountain.

Youlandale cheered up and stood up again. She was not the kind of person who could walk away without any guilt after doing something sorry for others, but since Taixu was the first to betray destiny, there was nothing to say. Yes.

Although she also knew that with Bishop Otto's behavior, how many times he had deceived Taixu before was probably a difficult topic to discuss.

But...then again, is the existence of the Second Herrscher more suitable in the hands of Anti-Entropy, or in the hands of Bishop Otto...

Hollander's footsteps rarely paused.

There is no time for her to think so much, but what she wants to do now may not conflict with the will of the bishop. Hollander just thinks straightforwardly, but he is not a fool. This point does not need to be repeated. So why he suddenly took action after two days of peace, wasn't it because of the previous communication from the Bishop?

So, don’t think so much…

But sorry, sometimes, the more you remind yourself not to think so much, the harder it is to free your brain from the torture of constant thinking.

Youlandale activated the Moon Soul Armor again and flew across the thousand-meter-long trestle in an instant, but just such a moment was enough to think a lot.

Sometimes, no, it should be said that most of the time, Hollandale felt that he couldn't see clearly what the bishop was thinking. Just like the phone call not long ago, Hollander had already anticipated two situations when he answered the call——

It was nothing more than informing her that the action was terminated or urging her to continue the action.

But the bishop chose the third way.

"I will not interfere. I have delegated all decision-making power to you."

He kept saying this.

It's not that Youlandale doesn't like the feeling of being entrusted with important tasks. If it's an ordinary mission or a battle against a certain Honkai beast, forget it. Hollanddale was cultivated by Otto himself all the way. She still didn't know what the bishop was striving for, but she could smell a hint of it from the past mission experience-catching the Second Herrscher, for the bishop , not just to fight against Honkai, but related to his dream goal.

In this case, why would the bishop leave the choice in her hands? Still telling her that Rita was captured, it was simply a clear indication that she would take the opportunity to capture Kiana and use it as a weight and counter-entropy to exchange prisoners of war.

"This is not like the Bishop's style."

With his feet stepping on solid ground again, Hollandale couldn't help but sigh slightly as he thought.

But in the blink of an eye, she smiled helplessly again - "No, this is the style of the bishop."

Thinking that he had just tried to figure out the Bishop's thoughts, even a serious and old-fashioned person like Hollander couldn't help but laugh.

"It's just as expected. The main peak is so crowded because almost everyone on the eastern main peak has been evacuated... Are you afraid that the disciples of Taixu Mountain will take drastic action after discovering Kiana? But it's just right, you don't need a headache. One more thing is missing.”

Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, Hollandale silently felt the flow of Honkai energy in the silence.

In the past, the opponents were Honkaimon, which had higher energy response and became larger and more conspicuous. This was the first time for Hollander to use this kind of perception ability, so it was a bit unfamiliar.

Youlandale had to thank Miss Sushang again in his heart. If she hadn't temporarily relocated everyone on the eastern main peak, Youlandale might have been discovered as soon as he appeared, and Kiana's location would not have been found at all.

But now, on the main eastern peak where there is nothing, every Honkai Impact reaction is so clear, even smoother than during training. The difference between the two is like having a few white clouds on a sunny day and a hazy day. It's like feeling the ripples on the lake before and after it freezes...

"Found it. There are four Honkai energy reactions in total. One outside the room should be an elder or disciple responsible for surveillance. There are three reactions with different strengths and weaknesses in the room. One reaction strength is only slightly stronger than ordinary people, and the other reaction strength is equivalent to that of an ordinary saint. The level of the Scar Awakener, the last reaction intensity is much higher than that of the Valkyrie and the Stigma Awakener, and is lower than the worst Imperial-level Honkaimon, and it should be the Second Herrscher.”

With this silent recitation in his mouth, in just one sentence, Hollander's figure had already appeared outside the courtyard where the second Herrscher was.

"Who is it? Youlandale?"

Almost at the moment she settled down, the elder responsible for surveillance appeared behind Youlandale. While placing the sharp hairpin between Youlandale's neck, he issued a low warning sound.

Just as Youlandale wanted to secretly praise her in her heart, her reaction speed was much faster than that of the two elders who had followed her before, but she suddenly remembered that the voice sounded familiar.

"Did we... fight side by side in Manila?"

"So what? Without the master's permission, please... uh..."

The woman in Taoist robes squeezed out a reluctant lament from her throat and fainted weakly in the arms of Hollander.

"Rita...the method you taught is really useful..."

Use words to attract attention, and there is no need to say more about what follows. But it just sounds simpler.

When is the enemy most relaxed, how long does it take to detect an abnormality and then react, and where to hit to ensure that the opponent is 100% stunned and will not wake up in a short period of time. In order to do this, it is necessary to What kind of movements and what kind of force are used to complete the blow? If you don't have someone to teach you these things step by step, you will only fail to learn them.

But as it happens, Rita is good at this.

Hollander pressed his lips into a straight line and dragged the elder into another bamboo forest next to the courtyard when no one else was paying attention.

After doing all this, she walked back to the courtyard door and knocked lightly on the courtyard door, but instead of standing in front of the door and waiting, she hid in a blind corner.

She put her head against the thin wall and listened. After confirming that the footsteps were only one person, she took advantage of the sound of the door opening to get up and roll into the yard, and then approached the figure in black robe from behind.

"Eh?"

At the end, the man under the black robe seemed to be aware of the danger behind him, but he only had time to let out a light cry before he was hit in the back of the neck by a hand knife and fell to the ground silently.

"Huh? This is..."

Youlandale dragged the man in black robe into the yard and locked the door again from the inside. During the dragging process, the black robe was inevitably pulled loose, revealing the cat ears and long tail on the girl's head.

"Forget it, now is not the time to worry about this."

Hollander pressed his body against the wall and moved forward bit by bit until he came to the door of the house where there was the only sound in the yard.

"How about Qiana, I saw Master Sushang and Pado sneaking down the mountain to buy a lot of steamed buns this morning. It suddenly occurred to me that I have never made curry-filled steamed buns for you. How about it? It's the same as the one in Changkong City. Which convenience store is better?”

"That goes without saying! Mei Yi must have made it delicious!"

"Kiana! This is really the first time I've done this. If you don't tell me what's wrong, it will be difficult to improve it in the future!"

"What does it matter? As long as it's Mei Yi's cooking, I won't dislike it!"

"Then who took the rice balls I made for the first time and mixed them with salt water to make soaked rice?"

"Uh... that... that's..."

"Pfft hahaha!"

"Meiyi, you are making fun of me again...hahaha!"

Hollandale silently withdrew his finger from the doorknob, not mercifully, but rather unable to bear to interrupt the girls' smiles that were straightforward enough to temporarily ignore their worries.

"Speaking of which, Kiana, how are you doing with your practice of Taixu Sword Qi? Before a few doctors come up with a solution, you need to rely on the power of Taixu Sword Qi to suppress the erosion of Herrscher and Honkai Energy in your body, but You must not fish like you did when you were studying at St. Freya, do you understand?”

"Oh, of course I know this! But this Taixu Sword Qi is not so easy to learn... Mei Yi, look at how many people can learn it in the whole of China... Hehe... But you are right, Mei Yi, it concerns me My life is also related to the fate of more people - don't worry, I will work hard every moment!"

"That's it... that's good... I'm going to see Padu. She just opened the door. Why hasn't she come back yet..."

"Mei Yi, don't be anxious. Even if something happens, I can use the power of the Second Herrscher to take you with me. There is no need to worry about Sister Paduo's safety. She has friends in Taixu Mountain."

"No! How dare you use the power of the Herrscher in your current body? Are you going to die?"

"Meiyi, please don't be so reactive! I'm not talking about special circumstances. I definitely wouldn't use it casually!"

"squeak--"

The door of the house suddenly opened, and a sharp-edged light block suddenly appeared in the house.

"Youlandale!"

"What are you doing here?"

What was waiting was not the expected Padu, but a candidate who should never be here.

Although she was surprised, Mei still stood in front of Kiana without hesitation and raised a long sword.

Hollander's jaw relaxed and he opened his mouth slightly, but in the end he only smiled.

"It looks like I don't have to go around in circles anymore. That's good. This is the fighting style that suits me."

"fighting……"

Meiyi's eyes narrowed, and then she realized that Hollander was wearing a full set of Valkyrie armor.

"clatter--"

Hollandale took a step forward, and the sound of his footsteps was so crisp for some reason.

"Ho!"

Rather than passively defending, Mei chose to take the initiative and attack when Hollandale first started to act, which somewhat surprised the latter.

But if such an "unexpected" horizontal slash could force Orlandale back, then the title of the strongest Valkyrie would be somewhat undeserved.

"when--"

Without even looking at the trajectory and timing of Youlandale's punch, the sword slashed in the direction of the attack and was directly embedded in the wall. Meiyi didn't have time to abandon the sword immediately, or she mistook the slender sword as a The only thing she could rely on, anyway, was that when she reacted, she had already been hit on the back of her neck, and even Kiana's shouts could not be heard.

"boom!"

Almost at the same time that Mei Yi fell, gunfire suddenly rang out. Theoretically Taixu does not allow Kiana to hold weapons, but she is more or less the Herrscher of the Sky...

Kiana took out two pistols from the space rift and fired several shots at Hollander. Youlandale had to retreat and dodge, but Kiana had already rushed in front of her in the blink of an eye, turned sideways, twisted her waist, and whipped her leg towards the waist of Youlandale.

"This action..."

Accurately grabbing Kiana's ankle, Youlandale also quickly turned around, twisted his waist, and whipped his legs. His movements were so fast that it seemed like an instinctive reaction, and he directly kicked Kiana back.

"Um?"

The corners of Kiana's mouth curled up slightly. She caught the fainted Mei Yi while flying upside down, and her brain quickly searched for weak points in the surrounding space that could open the crack.

"I didn't expect it, this girl..."

The proud thoughts did not last even for a second, and Kiana's movements and her thoughts froze.

Too close, Hollandale was too close to her. Just standing there gave people a strange sense of oppression, as if no matter which weak point in space she chose, there would be no time to open the crack.

Just at this moment, a slightly weird sound sounded.

"Biu——"

A hundred meters away from the yard, Pado silently put away the flare while covering his shoulders.

"Huh... Fortunately, we reacted quickly. We were still wearing robes at the time, and our skills at pretending to be stunned are top-notch. Alas... Sister Kiana, Sister Mei, we can only help you get here... and then we will do it ourselves May you be blessed..."
