The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"ha?"

The corners of Kiana's eyes trembled. Even a moment ago, even just a moment ago, Jizi's eyes were still filled with warm light, but now their foreheads were touching, and her whole body was held in Jizi's arms. , but can no longer feel any warmth.

Her eyes kept trembling, but no matter what, what she encountered were only those eyes with drooped eyelids and dilated pupils. Even the original amber color in his eyes was gradually fading away, turning into a dead gray.

The wings of her nose kept twitching, but all the smells she inhaled were covered by the smoke. If possible... Kiana was so looking forward to it. For the first time, she was looking forward to the strong smell of alcohol appearing on Jizi's body.

She hoped that Himeko would just be drunk and fall on her like this. She would start snoring after a while, and it didn't matter even if she vomited all over her in the middle of her sleep, but...

But no.

Nothing.

Nothing happened, everything was just her wishful thinking.

Jizi... is dead.

Death, this seems to be the first time Kiana has faced this kind of thing.

To her, Xilin's memories were more like watching fire from afar. The Herrscher was indeed right. It was the other half of herself who inherited those memories and bore the pain for her.

Kiana Kaslana, when the real Kiana Kaslana died, she was still in an unconscious state and didn't even know about it for many years.

She has witnessed many [deaths] in Changkong City, Canghai City, and New Zealand. But witnessing and facing are two different things after all. She once thought that she had witnessed so many deaths, and she was walking on the edge of death all the time when fighting, so when she really faced death, she should be able to be more calm than ordinary people. .

But in fact, that's all she is.

People who have never faced death personally cannot imagine the kind of sadness they will face at that moment, or they may think of it too easily, or they may think of it as too heavy.

For Kiana, it is undoubtedly the former.

How long has it been?

It seemed like minutes, it seemed like hours, and it seemed like only a second or two had passed since the words "last lesson."

For a second or two, the Herrscher of the Sky, whose hands and feet have been liberated and has power, can do too many things.

But she is not the Herrscher of the Sky, at least not at this moment.

At this moment, she is just a girl who faked Kiana's name. If her real age is calculated, she is even just ten years old.

Her mind went blank. She knew that the chains that bound her had been untied, but she didn't know what else to do. She just kept regretting in her mind why she hadn't untied it earlier.

Jizi seemed to have said a lot at the last moment, but her mind was so messed up that she couldn't remember it anymore. The only thing that kept echoing in her mind was the last sentence——

"Kiana...this is...the last lesson..."

"呲——"

The sound of friction in the air brushed past her ears, and her face was suddenly splashed with some blood.

There was still a certain temperature left in the blood. Kiana looked in the direction where the blood spattered, and her pupils quickly contracted——

Ji Zi's shoulder was cut with a terrible wound by the wind blade, and her whole body also moved away from her under the influence of this force.

"don't want--"

Finally reacted.

The body finally started to move.

The arms were so light, maybe she could have untied them by herself, maybe she could have untied them earlier...

Her legs were numb from being squeezed for a long time, but she could bear it, as long as Himeko didn't leave her...

But the next moment, the fighting instinct came belatedly and returned to the body.

Her sensibility told her that she must hold Jizi's hand at this time, even if it was just a corpse, she would take her home. Even if she would be torn to pieces by those dolls in the next moment, she would at least hold Himeko's hand.

But reason told her that Jizi died to save her, and there were more companions fighting Mikael to save her. She must live, otherwise everything Jizi did would be meaningless. She It is impossible for me to remember what exactly the [last lesson] said in my mouth.

Her consciousness was suddenly pulled between two sides, and Kiana's figure froze for a moment, but the next moment, her body started to move on its own -

"Do you want to die!!!"

The Herrscher's voice was inexplicably irritable. After her words fell, dozens of space cracks opened around her. The Archon Spear moved through the space at high speed, piercing the smoke and dust in front of her. A dozen dolls and more monsters poked to pieces.

Then, the body under Xilin's control did not try to catch Ji Zi anymore, and then swung back, successfully grasped the flaming broken sword, and then quickly turned her waist. The broken sword quickly rotated for nearly three seconds under the traction of the core of the body. At 160 degrees, it just happened to knock away the second wave of wind blades.

"Tch, give it back to you."

She came out inexplicably and left inexplicably. Kiana took over the control of her body in such a confused manner. Her first reaction was still to look back for Himeko, but out of the corner of her eye she saw the doll that Wendy had transformed into again. Raised his hand——

"Click——"

Her teeth were almost broken. Kiana dragged her numb legs and staggered to swing the broken sword.

Only after holding it with your own hands can you know what kind of weight it is in Jizi's hands.

The invisible wind blade cut through the air, but still left traces in the space. Under that power that she once hated so much, all attacks were clearly seen, and then blocked accurately.

But this was just the beginning of the counterattack. The power of space was embodied in golden light, which repaired two-thirds of the broken sword. Then Kiana shrank her pupils and appeared directly in front of the Leader through the power of space. The unstoppable space The sharp blade aimed at its neck and chopped it off without hesitation——

Then unsurprisingly it failed.

At the moment when the sharp blade was about to cut off the neck of the doll, the neck and head of the doll flew up on their own and separated from the body. The sword only had time to cut off a small section of the neck. After the sword edge passed, the neck was put back together again. On its shoulders, it's just a little shorter and looks extremely uncoordinated.

Kiana's eyes widened, and she didn't have time to be surprised. She just swung her sword with all her strength and aimed at the waist of the doll again.

The puppet repeated its old trick, trying to separate the joints at the waist, but the next moment, an Archon Spear appeared out of thin air in the puppet's chest. With a "click", Leader's limbs gradually became limp and fell to the ground.

"I'm not an idiot who can only swing a sword!"

Kiana pushed Leader's "corpse" into the ruins of the collapsed tower with one kick. After quickly searching for Guinevere with eyes wide open but to no avail, she heard the sound of the puppet behind her again.

As soon as he turned around, what he saw was a sight that was tearing his eyes apart.

"Luanluuluo—your teacher Jizi is here with us. If you have the ability, come and snatch it back!"

Countless dolls swarmed up, grabbing Jizi's hands and feet and dragging her into the group of dolls.

Then, more silver threads hung from the air, and Jizi's body was hung in the air by the silver threads. Her limbs were entangled and bound by the silver threads, twisting and turning in front of Kiana.

"She actually talked nonsense in the end. Why fight for all the beauty in the world? There is no beauty left and ugliness everywhere. There is no need for such a world to exist. But don't worry, Kiana, we will take good care of you. Teacher, we will let her see that wonderful new world..."

"Asshole! Give Jizi back to me!"

Three puppets were chopped away with one sword, and Kiana plunged into the puppets without hesitation.

After the broken sword was integrated with the power of space, it became obviously much lighter. Kiana waved it left and right, flying away all the puppets that tried to get close to her.

It's just that the vitality of these dolls is extremely tenacious. Just like what Jizi faced before, if the limbs are broken, they can be picked up from the ground and reattached. You can even do this even if the head is gone. As long as there is a piece of part in the body, it will be very easy. It is difficult to count as death, as there are countless monsters pouring out of the imaginary space. They must be killed once and then the golden sphere as the core is quickly smashed, otherwise they will be resurrected again.

Rushing all the way, Kiana has lost count of how many dolls and monsters she has knocked away. It’s just that these guys seem to be endless. They attack Kiana from different directions at all times, giving no response at all. She has the opportunity to activate long-distance phase travel, and can occasionally intersperse the projection of some Archon Spears between battles. This is the limit of her mental strength.

Jizi's body, which was hung in mid-air, seemed to have always maintained a constant distance from her, neither shortening as she advanced nor moving too far away, as if it was a "bait" deliberately left by the Herrscher.

"asshole!"

After noticing this, her mind shook, and her thoughts were interrupted for a moment. Kiana felt hot all over, but she unconsciously accelerated her charge. There were more and more dolls and monsters around her. She had already Being held back from time to time, the Archon Spear was reduced from a means of attack to a means of escape.

If you continue to force yourself, it will undoubtedly be counterproductive and expose more flaws to the body. In the end, it will inevitably be suppressed by dozens or hundreds of dolls like Himeko did before...

It would be great if she could only use complicated and better close combat, and let Sirin control the power of space. During the fierce battle, Kiana somehow came up with this idea.

"Sure, as long as you beg me."

Xilin's voice sounded at the right time. In surprise, Kiana stumbled and was almost hugged by the doll coming from behind.

Fortunately, an Archon spear pierced Kiana's chest in time, passed through her body like a projection, and appeared on the doll's chest, and then - bang!

"cut."

Under the continuous impact, Kiana kept exhaling white steam from her mouth, and her hesitation only existed for a moment. Even though Sirin had helped her more than once, Sirin had never concealed her malice towards others. She could really Entrust the defense to Siren?

"Hmph. Don't be suspicious. I just suddenly discovered some interesting things. I want to live a little longer for the time being. At least I can't die in such a disgusting place."

"You...what should I do?"

"Let go of the control of the power. Just focus on attacking those guys who rush up. Give me three seconds, and I can directly help you open the space rift leading to the Salt Lake City base."

"What?"

boom!

The thick sword blade directly smashed the head of a doll, and the body of the doll also rotated and rolled out under the action of inertia, but it soon started to move under the influence of the silver wire, and it was picked up again from nowhere. He placed a head on his shoulder, then opened his arms and rushed forward again, screaming.

"What are you waiting for? Do you want to die here? These annoying guys are so weak and so disgusting. I feel unlucky to stay with them for one more second! Anyway, the purpose of that Wuliangta Jizi is to rescue you. , after the Salt Lake City base confirms that you are okay, those who held the Lord God can escape safely, what are you still hesitating about?"

"I want to get Jizi back!"

"You're crazy..."

"I'm not crazy! Don't worry about Mikael for the time being. With the power of the so-called [God], if he really wanted to take action, I'm afraid he would have solved everything and rushed over. He must have other purposes, maybe like As you once encountered, he also betrayed these dolls."

"..."

Siren suddenly stopped talking. Until she chopped down two more monsters, Kiana didn't understand whether the [betrayal] she mentioned stung her proud nerves, or whether she was simply stupid because of her stubbornness.

Kiana also understood that her demands were a bit excessive, a bit willful, and she was even gambling on the lives of the companions responsible for holding Mikael down. But……

But in this situation, how can we make the decision to escape rationally and indifferently?

The sadness and anger in her heart were intertwined. Kiana only felt that some power was constantly impacting her brain, making her always unconsciously distracted during the battle, but her reactions became more and more agile. The spatial power and the sword cooperated with each other, More and more dolls fell at her feet.

"At this time, what should I do...how should I do it right...I don't know at all!!!"

The accumulated energy in my heart reached its limit, and it finally reached the point where I would almost suffocate myself to death if I didn't cry out.

"Oh oh oh! What a stupid kid, can't you see that we are fishing? Do you really want Wuliang Tajizi's body so much? Think about it carefully? It is a meaningless corpse after all." Is it more important, or is your life more important?”

The Herrscher's annoying and pompous voice came from all directions. A thousand Herrschers have experienced at least a thousand kinds of suffering. No one understands the evil side of human nature better than them.

Of course they knew what they were saying and it was impossible for Kiana not to understand it, but sometimes it didn't matter whether they understood it or not. The same words said in different situations and in different identities would naturally lead to different results.

Just like now, the Herrscher just told Kiana the "truth" lightly, and the result was... Kiana's sanity completely evaporated.

"I'm an idiot! So what if an idiot does something meaningless!!"

The broken sword was thrown from his hand and cut off the silver thread that bound Ji Zi's right arm, but the broken thread was quickly made up for by more threads.

"Give Jizi... back to me!!!"

He grabbed a puppet by the throat with one hand and slammed it to the ground. He crushed the puppet's throat with his five fingers. As soon as he raised his hand, he made a fist and smashed the head into pieces.

The doll's only torso and limbs were still trying to stand up under the pull of the silver cord. Kiana directly tore it into five equal parts, knocking down all the surrounding dolls that followed.

But that's as far as it goes.

Suddenly a shadow appeared under her feet. Kiana crushed a golden ball with her kick and turned around. What she saw was a veritable "tsunami"——

The silver thread pulled the broken doll body, and even the small fragments formed a wave of tens of meters high, and it was not just one side, the wave formed a huge circle, and Kiana was in this circle middle. As for the dolls around Kiana, they cheered and merged into the wave. There were so many ownerless replacement bodies among them, so they didn't need to be afraid at all.

As if she thought of something, Kiana raised her head. Jizi's body had been moved directly above her by the silver wire.

The speed of the wave was a bit slow. If you had made up your mind from the beginning, it was still possible to leave this domination theater directly.

Therefore, Himeko's body was hoisted to the position closest to Kiana.

Kiana's body trembled violently, and her eyes that were supposed to be blue were already red with bloodshot eyes.

If it was said that reason evaporated before, at this moment, it is that one doesn’t even know what reason is anymore.

There is only one thought left in my mind - I must get Jizi's body back!

Golden light emerged beside him, and a space rift the size of a fingertip appeared, and opened quickly under Kiana's guidance. It only took a tenth of a second -

However, the tsunami composed of the doll's limbs suddenly accelerated. Almost at the same time that the spatial rift appeared, Kiana's vision went dark.

"Damn it!"

Just when she was about to struggle, Kiana found that her body was not oppressed or restrained, only her vision was completely deprived.

But if you feel carefully, you can smell the fragrance of plants around you?

"What on earth is this..."

The power of space can replace the hands to touch everything around her, but before Kiana could do so, she suddenly heard a sound above her head, and then something like a vine wrapped around her waist.

"Youlandale?"

The next moment, there was a flash of light above her head, and vines as thick as her arms lifted her into the air, and then threw her upward.

Immediately afterwards, Kiana felt someone hugging her.

"Youlandale, it's really you!"

The last time she was caught by the vine was not a good scene, so Kiana's face was a little ugly. However, when she thought of the other party's exaggerated power, she calmed down unconsciously, even because of the death of Himeko in her heart. And the mixed emotions of sadness and anger that came out of him softened a little - although only slightly.

Hollandale pursed her lips, hugged Kiana and landed directly on the ruins of the collapsed tower. In front of them, the wave of puppets squirmed and soon decomposed into individual individuals again.

"Hahaha! Another one is coming! Another one is coming!!"

"Youlandale actually wants to get involved in this matter, so let's kill her too!"

Bianca Ataljina's eyes were fixed. She calmly put down Kiana in her arms, raised her hand flat to her side, and a blue-white, tower-like spear appeared in her hand. .

Then, her eyes couldn't help but look at Jizi who was hanging high in the air.

"sorry."

The thin lips moved imperceptibly.

"I'm late."

She relied on Gnius' position to directly enter the Quantum Sea from Sumeru Mustard Seed, and then ran over forcefully. The Quantum Sea does not have the [dimension] defined by humans. This journey is much longer than she imagined. If only it could be earlier...

Her peripheral vision turned to Kiana next to her.

"Kiana, I'll cover you. How long will it take for you to open the spatial rift leading to the Salt Lake City base?"

Kiana bit her lip hard, lowered her head and replied:

"I won't leave, I... want to take back Teacher Jizi, even if it's just a corpse!"

Kiana is a little uneasy. It can be said that she has woken up to a certain extent. If she is alone, she can be willful, but now... But she really can't, no matter what, just leave her alone. Jizi's body was far away from the battlefield. How different was it from a deserter?

However, she was still too willful after all, and she had expected that Hollander would blame her.

However, Youlandale simply withdrew his gaze and looked at the enemy in front of him expressionlessly.

"Is that so? Then the battle plan has changed. Now our goal is to recapture the former A-level Valkyrie Muyuta Himeko. Is that okay? The former B-level Valkyrie Kiana Kaslana?"

"ah?"

Hollander took two steps forward with his gun in hand and blocked Kiana.

"I have never been in the habit of abandoning my comrades. Even if you don't say it, I will do it. If you use the power of the Herrscher to support me, I can feel more at ease."

Peace of mind...

Kiana stared blankly at the back of the figure who was not much taller than herself.

Apart from people like Daddy, Bronya, Xi'er and her aunt, this was the first time that an "outsider" used the word "An Xin" to describe the power of the Herrscher in her body.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Hollandale tilted his head and swayed his golden high ponytail.

"What's wrong? If you're ready, just follow my command, three, two, one -"

"Rumble--"

The "one" in Hollander was only half pronounced. The deafening thunder covered up all sounds, and in an instant, the entire world was bathed in red thunder light.

"This is……"

Kiana looked at another figure blocking her in disbelief.

The electric charge in the air was extremely active, and the roots of her long purple hair were clearly flying. Kiana just looked at the familiar and unfamiliar back silently, not noticing that her long snow-white hair was also flying. Come.

Meiyi turned her head slightly and glanced behind her with her peripheral vision, but said nothing.

Kiana only saw the flash of red eye shadow. She had countless words in her heart, but she had to hold them back.

The reunion came so suddenly that the two of them actually felt strange. (End of chapter)
