Time in a collapsing world

Australia, the field station of the fifth team.

"Hua, get me a glass of water..."

Himihu sat weakly on the ground. As time passed, the discomfort in her body not only did not ease, but became more serious.

And Himihu's thinking is becoming more and more confusing now, and he feels like he will fall asleep at any time.

For some reason, her body was emitting an extremely high amount of heat, turning this small space into an oven, extremely sweltering.

Hua handed her the water, with an anxious look in his eyes. Although they were temporarily transferred to the rear after reporting Himihu's physical condition, seeing the captain's uncomfortable look, Hua thought they should go back to the headquarters first.

People from the medical department have already come to take a look, but everyone is confused about Himihu's strange illness and has no idea how to solve it.

"Captain, I have submitted the transfer application to the headquarters. If you wait a little longer, we will be able to find someone from the headquarters to check your body soon."

"Um……"

Himihu was unable to respond. Faced with this situation, even she knew that now was indeed not the time to show off.

"Captain! It's bad! A large number of Honkai Beasts have appeared near us and are rushing towards us!" A team member broke in and brought bad news.

"quantity?"

Hua looked at the confused Himihu and asked for her.

"It's the size of a small beast tide!"

"How come there are so many?" Hua frowned. Generally speaking, beast tides only occur when large-scale Honkai Impact occurs, but except for the concentration of Honkai energy exceeding the standard, everything is normal around here. There should not be so many Honkai Impact. That’s right for bad beasts.

And why are they rushing in their direction? Is it a coincidence? Or other reasons?

"Hua, let's retreat..."

Himihu's voice came over weakly.

"Okay." Hua also knew that retreating at this time was the wisest choice, so he said to the team member: "Inform the people outside not to accept the challenge, and prepare to retreat as quickly as possible."

"Yes!"

The team member ran out.

"Captain, let's hurry up..." Hua turned his head, but found that Himihu had fallen to the ground, his eyes were closed tightly, and he fell into a coma.

"team leader!"

Hua quickly knelt down next to Himihu, leaned down, and listened to her heartbeat.

"Dong dong——dong dong——"

Fortunately, my heartbeat is still strong.

Hua breathed a sigh of relief, lifted Himihu's body, and let her lean on his back. He put his hands in front of him and put his head on Hua's shoulder.

Hua bent forward slightly to prevent Himihu's body from falling halfway.

You can't take anything else with you. The most important thing now is to ensure the safety of yourself and the captain.

Quickly walking out of the tent, the team members outside were all ready and waiting for Hua and Himiko to come out.

"Hua, captain, is she okay?"

Everyone saw the unconscious captain on Hua's back, with worried looks on their faces.

"Retreat first. We must hurry up and send the captain back to the headquarters."

Hua shook his head and looked at the smoke-filled place in the distance, which was the beast tide. A large number of Honkai beasts existed in the smoke and dust, and the larger ones had their heads exposed from above.

"go!"

……

"Captain, the fifth team has encountered a small wave of beasts and is asking us for assistance!"

A member of the second team's station nearest to the fifth team reported to Kevin.

"Go right away." Kevin put down his lunch and tried to connect to Himihu's communicator, but there was a burst of noise from the other end.

When Hua left with the fifth team, he did not take the captain's communicator with him. Now it is probably crushed by the Honkai beasts, right?

"Locate the location of the fifth team."

Seeing Kevin's frowning expression, Hen on the side immediately ordered.

"Why did Team 5 encounter a tide of beasts?"

Both Kevin and Hen were puzzled. It was obvious that there were no Honkai Beasts in the place arranged by the Fire Chaser Moth for the fifth team.

"Hen, investigate the route before the beast wave." Kevin said while putting on his equipment.

"Kevin, you are getting better and better at calling people..."

Hen complained, but he was multitasking. One hand was operating on the tablet, and the other hand was arranging the equipment at a normal speed.

"It was found, but... something is wrong." Hen didn't know how to explain it, so he had to hand the tablet to Kevin and let him see for himself.

After buttoning the last button, Kevin took the tablet, which showed the general direction of the previous beast wave.

"Are they converging?"

Kevin looked at the strange way the beast tide formed on the tablet and concluded.

This beast tide was not formed in a Honkai Impact, but was formed by many scattered Honkai beasts gathered one by one, moving in the same direction as if they had a common goal.

Just like a river flowing into the sea, many tributaries continue to join the main stream on the way, working together towards the goal of entering the sea.

"Is there something attracting them, and Team 5 happens to be on their path?"

Kevin tentatively came to this conclusion.

"Contact other members of the fifth team and ask them to change their direction of travel."

"it is good."

After Hen left, Kevin's communicator rang.

"Mei? Have you seen what's going on here?"

"Well, I see it."

Mei, who has been paying attention to the Honkai energy data here, naturally cannot fail to see the abnormality of this beast wave.

"Headquarters has contacted the members of the fifth team. They should be heading east now to avoid the invasion range of the beast tide."

"That's good." Kevin silently breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Only one team was unable to fight against the beast tide, let alone the captain of the fifth team who was still unwell.

"Kevin, you go meet up with the other teams and try to establish a defense line before the beast wave arrives." Mei gave him the positions of the other teams. Now, except for Kevin's second team, the sick fifth team Except for the small team and the first team that has not yet joined the battlefield, the rest are already in place.

"Copy that." After recording the locations of the remaining teams in his mind, taking the gun, Kevin opened the tent door and walked out.

At the other end, the Fire Chasing Moth base.

As soon as Mei and Kevin finished talking, the observer's urgent voice came over: "Dr. Mei, the concentration of Honkai energy is accelerating in an area of ​​Australia! It has now reached 1927... no, 2120HW! The location is at Near Team !"

"?!"

Looking at the red dots on the detector that were spreading with the fifth team as the center, Mei had a terrible suspicion and suddenly turned her eyes to the display screen, which was playing the live scene of the beast tide.

Sure enough, as the fifth team's route changed, the beast tide also changed its direction and followed them closely.

"Wrong judgment..."
