Time in a collapsing world

"Guinea pig, did you know Sakura is a killer?"

"I know."

"Oh? Then did you know that she works at Fire Chaser?"

"What???"

On the way to the Fire Chasing Moth base, Mebius told Ri everything Sakura didn't say. Look at his shocked expression, it's really good~

"...Which department does Sakura work in?" Li wanted to ask in detail. He had never seen Sakura at all when he was working at Fire Chaser Moth before?

But when you think of Sakura Assassin's identity, this is not surprising. After all, this is a position that is not very visible to people.

"'Poison Chrysalis', I told you about it."

"No wonder..."

Li suddenly realized, "Then that's what you told me?"

"She already knows your identity as a fusion warrior, so she will take the initiative to show you off soon, right?" Mebius said nonchalantly.

"...Did Sakura wake up just now? Why didn't you remind me?"

"Why are you reminding me? Anyway, you two are working in Fire Chasing Moth, and your identity will be discovered sooner or later."

"Isn't this because I'm afraid she'll be worried~"

"Ha, a grown man is so coy..." Mebius said with disdain.

……

"Dr. Mei, there is a situation in Australia!"

"What?" Mei came to the team member's side and asked with a frown.

"The concentration of Honkai energy across the entire continent is increasing. If this trend continues, it will reach the Herrscher level in the next few days!"

"Understood, mobilize investigators and combatants to go to Australia and try to kill the Herrscher before she appears!"

"Yes!"

"Dr. Mei, do you need to inform Mr. Li?"

"There is no need for the moment... Don't notify the first team yet."

Mei thought for a while and said to the observer: "Always pay attention to the fluctuations of Honkai energy, try to locate the Herrscher, and inform the fifth team on the mission in Australia to let them join the search."

"Yes!"

……

Australia, in a small hotel.

"Captain, how are you feeling now?" Hua was called into the room by Bimi and asked her to help her rub her head. Recently, her head has been swollen and sometimes accompanied by severe pain. She has seen a lot of The hospital couldn't find a treatment, so she had to ask Hua to rub it for her, which at least could relieve some pain.

"Beep beep beep——"

The communicator on the table rang, and Huabang Himihu picked it up and handed it to her ear.

"I'm Himiko, the captain of the fifth team... huh? Okay, I understand." Himiko signaled Hua to hang up the communicator, endured the headache, stood up, and put on his coat.

"Let's go, Hua, there are new orders. The Seventh Herrscher... will be born in these days."

"Captain, why don't you take a rest first? Let us carry out the task." Hua looked at the frowning Himiko worriedly and advised.

"How can that be done? The target of our mission this time is the Herrscher. How can I just let you carry out the mission and hide behind it?"

"But Captain, your body..."

"I will go back to Fire Chaser after this mission is completed. None of the hospitals here are reliable." Himihu waved his hand and said in a tone that he could not refuse.

"...Okay, but I will report your physical condition to the headquarters." Hua sighed. There was really nothing he could do about his captain, so he had to take a step back.

The captain of the fifth team is unwell. If the Herrscher appears, Fire Chaser Moth should move her to the back of the battlefield, right?

"I told you it's okay..."

……

"Kosmo, you can turn off the lights."

"……it is good."

In Li and Kosmo's double dormitory, Li was already lying on his bed, but Kosmo received Kevin's message just before turning off the lights.

Kevin: Assemble and go to Australia.

Concise and concise.

"...Kosmo, do you have a mission at this time?" Looking at Kosmo who was dressed neatly again, Li asked:

"Large mission?"

Ordinary tasks would not call for manpower so urgently. Most people would wait until the next morning and then go and solve it in a leisurely manner.

"...I don't know." Kosmo shook his head, "Captain Kevin only said that the location of the mission was Australia."

"Australia? That's a coincidence. The fifth team is also in Australia now, and there are two acquaintances of mine among them~"

"...Really?" Kosmo nodded.

"Forget it, they will be back next month anyway, and I can introduce them to you then... By the way, Kosmo, do you stutter when talking to girls?" Li asked curiously.

"...I'm leaving." Kosmo obviously didn't want to continue this topic and walked quickly towards the door.

"Hey! Don't leave! Just answer 'yes' or 'no'!"

What responded to him was the loud slamming of the door closing.

"OK, come to the answer, Kosmo stutters when talking to girls."

Kosmo's resistant attitude had already revealed the problem. Li just wanted to tease him a little on a whim.

Li got up by herself, turned off the light, and then lay back down comfortably.

"Beep beep beep——"

It was Li's turn for the communicator to ring. Li's closed eyes opened again, and she reluctantly connected it.

"Alicia, do we also have a mission?"

"Eh? Li, how do you know... Oh~ Kosmo has already set off~?" Alicia's daily naughty voice sounded from the other end.

"There is indeed a mission this time, but it's not ours."

"It's okay, bye, I'll go back to sleep." Li gestured to hang up the communication.

"Hey, hey! Don't hang up! Li, please be patient. Although our mission is not this time, it is not far away." Alicia quickly stopped Li and said angrily.

"Don't you want to hear the information first? I overheard this from other people~?"

"Same mission?"

"yes~?"

"How many teams will participate?"

"At the moment...except for our team, it seems that all the teams have joined."

"? Then the scale of this mission is quite large." Li sighed a little. The last time he saw the Fire Chasing Moth dispatch a combat force of this scale was during the sixth collapse... Wait!

"Isn't a new Herrscher about to appear?" Li asked tentatively.

"Li, your guess is correct. This mission is indeed related to the upcoming seventh great collapse." Alicia's voice is not so brisk. After all, almost every great collapse is accompanied by a large number of casualties. .

"Then why didn't you call me over?"

"Perhaps it's not the right time yet? The Herrscher hasn't appeared yet, so he didn't call you?" Alicia guessed.

"And not only were you not called, but our entire first team was not called... I really want to go there. Himihu has been alone there for so long. He must be lonely without me, right?"

Li felt that it was because of him that the first team was not called over. After all, he was now also a member of the first team.
