The Fire-Chasing Herrscher Who Destroyed the World

"This way!"

When the building collapsed, Ellie grabbed Eden, and the pink crystal quickly wrapped their bodies, and then fell to the ground from a height of hundreds of meters.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang..." What fell together were hundreds of bodies wrapped in crystals. This was the limit of what Ellie could do.

But soon, even this meager effort came to nothing in an instant - hundreds of high-rise buildings around him collapsed, and countless debris piled up and fell, leaving the living, dead, complete or incomplete bodies. All buried under rubble.

"boom!"

Ai Li smashed the steel concrete, ruins and rocks nearly three meters above her head with one punch. She jumped onto the ruins in twos and twos, then lay down and pulled Eden out.

"Ahem! This... what the hell is going on!" Eden knelt down on the ruins, the dust choking her constantly and coughing. She stroked her chest and raised her head, looking at everything in front of her in disbelief.

Apparently dozens of seconds ago, she and Ai Li were sitting in the exquisite box, overlooking the river rolling eastwards through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, rippled by the drizzle, looking forward to the neon light that was about to light up and give it a beautiful feeling. The color of the flying rain strands allows them to interweave brilliant colors in the sky.

But now, as the purple lightning flashed across, everything around him was annihilated in dust. The steel forest that mankind is proud of was uprooted by violent lightning and storms, leaving nothing behind.

"Ellie...Ellie!"

After coming back to his senses, Eden only saw Ellie lying crazily among the ruins, digging into the ruins with her white and tender hands.

"It must be okay! It must be okay!"

She heard Ellie keep mumbling.

Only then did Eden belatedly recall the solid pink crystal. If it hadn't been for its protection, he probably wouldn't have been able to survive a hundred meters free falling to the ground unharmed.

So she soon joined the excavation team.

They quickly found the first victim... no, it was a victim, and there were more, it was impossible to tell whose... remains.

It is ironic to say that the reason why the body of the deceased was preserved was because Ellie wrapped his body with crystal before falling. But this kind of protection was done in a hurry, and it was not like the piece of crystal that wrapped her and Eden, which would break into layers to reduce the impact of landing.

But now, this pink crystal has no other use besides becoming the coffin of the deceased.

Ellie stood aside silently, with her back to Eden.

Was she... no, was she crying? Eden was a little unsure.

"Tick..."

The drizzle wetted Ellie's fluffy hair, and the blood-soaked rainwater fell from Ellie's trembling fingertips and merged into the red ocean that gurgled among the ruins.

Eden exclaimed and hurriedly bandaged the sleeves of his gorgeous shirt in private.

But as soon as she took Ai Li's hand, she saw the girl shook her head violently, her sad look disappeared, as if it had never existed, and was replaced by an unprecedented solemn look.

"Thank you, Ellie." Eden whispered softly. Even though the black hand named fear still clutched her heart, her voice was still as elegant and moving as an instrument, but the last vibrato broke all this. Rendered like the sound of nature that is about to dissipate.

She should naturally thank her. If he hadn't been with her at that time, Eden felt that his ending would not be better than the person they just dug out.

Moreover, other than that, she didn't know what else she could say to Ellie except thank you.

Comforting? maybe.

But she didn't think she was qualified to comfort Ai Li.

"Eden..." Her voice was soft as usual, but with a kind of resilience, "We seem to be in big trouble. You have to follow me closely next. I have... I will not let you again. Run away from me, okay?"

Eden didn't say much, he just followed her closely.

"By the way, do I need to explain everything that happened here? About the Fire Chaser Moth, about the Honkai Impact?" Ellie asked softly. She had discussed this topic with Mikael more than once, and she thought...at least she thought that both Mikael and she were opposed to the concealment behavior of the Fire Chaser Moth.

"There is no difference in the outcome between dying soberly and dying in a daze, but people have the right to know the truth so that they can decide: If tomorrow is the last day of life, what should they do now? What can they do? It's brave Should we continue to fight or accept the outcome calmly? This should not be decided by a small group of people." Ellie clearly remembers Mikael's original words.

But Eden shook his head, "Ordinary people may know nothing about Honkai, but I...actually I don't know much about it, but I believe in you, Ellie. After all, if it weren't for you, I would have...the rest will wait until Let’s talk about it after it’s over, including the parts we didn’t finish talking about in the building.”

"Hmm~ Okay!" Ellie took the opportunity to glance at Eden's wrist, and saw that it was as white as usual, with no purple lines, and then she smiled slightly.

The drizzle made the flying dust thicken and lingered for a while, and the dark clouds blocked the moonlight. Among the endless ruins, it was impossible to distinguish the east, west, and west.

Ai Li looked at the communication and mobile phone. The signals were all messed up and she couldn't contact Mikael at all, let alone figure out the specific situation.

But one thing was that the collapse had already broken out, and no one needed to tell her.

"I have to send Eden to a safe place first. Then I will meet with Mikael." Ellie knew very well that she could not protect Eden all the time. It would be fine if she just encountered ordinary Honkai beasts. Lawyer...

The rain gradually stopped, and the night sea breeze blew, and the dust covering the ruins slowly dispersed.

"What's wrong, Ellie?"

"Back off!"

Ellie pushed Eden away. At the same time, the ruins of the wall on her left instantly collapsed, and a huge chariot jumped over her head.

Ai Li groaned, raising her slender arms high and facing the mountain-like body. In a panic, Eden only saw a flash of pink light, and a crystal flower gradually bloomed in her palm.

"boom!"

The chariot hit the crystal flower, and the ground beneath Ellie's feet instantly sunk. Her petite body suddenly exerted force and threw the chariot away.

The chariot landed on its back, plowing a wide ravine among the ruins. It retreated too short, and its front legs were too thick and inflexible. It could not turn over for a while, and it fiddled with its limbs desperately like a beetle.

"Haha! He looks really embarrassed. It's a pity that Mikael can't see it..."

If it were normal, Ai Li felt that she would have taken a photo or recorded a video while laughing, and when she took it out after a long time, she would have bent over with laughter.

But now she was grinning, not in much playful mood.

Fei Huazhi Gong was not around, after all, she was out for dinner. But it didn't matter. The pink crystal condensed into a bow arm, bow string, and finally a crystal arrow in her hand. In fact, there was no need to go to such trouble, but unless there was a special emergency, she would rather fight with a bow. Only in this way can cuteness be guaranteed.

"Then...goodbye! Oh, I didn't have time to take a photo and show it to Mikael. It's really a bit of a pity!"

The arrow was slender and shot into the chariot. It didn't seem to cause any damage at first.

But soon, Chariot's limbs gradually stiffened, and the joints made a "clicking, clicking" sound as they hardened. In the end, its body exploded with a "bang" and turned into pink crystal dust that filled the sky.

Ai Li flipped up her hair a little coolly and silently summarized her shortcomings.

Seeing that the danger was over, Eden quickly approached Ellie, but only heard her talking to herself:

"Hey! No, no, no! This action needs to be improved, it's too inelegant... Hmm... when you throw it out, can you lift one foot up? I think it would be much cuter like this..."

Eden couldn't help but smile. After leaving the battle, Ellie instantly turned back into the cute girl who liked to chatter.

"It's a bit strange..." Ai Li suddenly jumped onto a broken wall. Although it was not the highest point, she could already see most of the scenery of the East City.

Upon closer inspection, her two thin eyebrows slowly wrinkled.

"From a Honkai perspective, the number of Honkai beasts and dead soldiers that appeared is quite a bit less. The chariot-level Honkai beast that was less than 20 meters just now is probably the largest one..."

She thought of the worst possibility.

"Let's go!"

Ellie took Eden's hand and ran away.

If she guessed correctly - the Herrscher was near her.
