I, Herrscher Buster

Looking at the half-submerged city in front of him, Tesla rubbed his arm. It was a little cold, and the air was full of Honkai energy... This place is really not suitable for staying. But now they can only work here, I hope that the girl and the fucker will just obediently wait for them to find them, and don't make any fools.

"Did destiny make any moves?"

Mei couldn't help asking like this, she didn't think Destiny would let Kiana go so easily, Jingomiya Rin might be fine because of her relationship with Ulandal and Rita, but Kiyana must be dangerous, Destiny wouldn't Those who let her go must protect her before the destiny.

"Not yet. This time we have seized the opportunity, and we have been led by the fate. This time it is finally our turn. The Helios landed in Dongcheng District, Changkong City. We will use this as the base of operations. , let’s start investigating from nearby.”

Finally raised his eyebrows once, Tesla also has some energy, the era of being led by the fate has passed, this time is the victory of the anti-entropy, the next thing to do is to hurry up, Tesla holds his chin seriously Thinking, Changkong City is now a no-man's land. You can build a simple detector array by yourself to find Qiyana by detecting the Houkai energy. Finding Kiyana is equivalent to finding him.

"Is there anything I can do?"

Not good at this kind of scientific research, Mei asked directly how she could help her. It is better to leave this kind of matter to a professional person, and now she just needs to follow Tesla's instructions.

"Help me find a flat place first, and protect me well. This city is full of Houkai energy. This situation must hide a lot of Houkai beasts. Let's go."

Usually there are mech guards in action, but because Tesla is not a combat personnel, now I can only let Mei be the guard. The second-hand scientist with twin tails stepped forward, and Mei followed her closely, watching In the familiar surroundings, Mei’s nostalgia is getting stronger and stronger. This city has become like this because of her own reasons. Now thinking about what happened at that time... I am really useless Well, just like before, I don't seem to have improved at all.

"Let me see... This map is completely useless. The terrain changes here are too great, and the streets are flooded. Forget it, just stay here and wait here. I will immediately Build complete."

After walking for a long time with the map, Tesla finally gave up on the method of finding out the map. Relying on the map is the most stupid way in this half-damaged city. If you say it, you will definitely faint yourself. Tesla found an open space and threw the luggage down. Next is the work of the engineering girl. After building the detector, it should be able to capture it soon if there is no accident. It's Qiyana's place.

"Although I know that Changkong City has become like this, but seeing it with my own eyes, I still feel..."

Waiting for Tesla to complete the work, Mei looked at the surrounding ruins with complicated emotions. At that time, she was defeated by the personality of the Herrscher. It was in this city that Qiyana reawakened herself, and then they picked up the ruins with Bronya. When I arrived at Jingu Rin, I finally escaped from the city and sat on Huberian and was taken to St. Freya by Mr. Jizi. This is where it all started.

"This is the aftermath of the third collapse. The center of Changkong is low-lying, and it is also a port city. After the collapse, the land sank seriously, and soon there was seawater backflow, and the influx of water was polluted by the collapse. It has become a secondary disaster, Dongcheng District is located in the lower reaches, and the disaster is particularly serious, looking at the current scene, who would have thought that three years ago, this was a bustling city with a population of more than 300 million."

Tesla, who was busy, took the time to talk to Mei. As an excellent second-hand scientist, she also learned geography very well. It was very simple for her to explain the problem that Changkong City has become like this. These words are even more silent, yes, it is because of the third collapse.

"All of this... is because of the third collapse..."

The girl sighed slightly, if she had been stronger back then, wouldn't it have become like this.

Chapter 7 The Herrscher is by my side

"It was me who became the Herrscher three years ago. From time to time, I would think, if I hadn't been so weak and hadn't succumbed to the collapse, would the tragedy of Changkong City have never happened? I know there are no ifs in this world, just ...I hope that when I face every choice in the future, I can recall this disaster, this is the responsibility I must bear...it is the same for Kiyana."

Mei was silent for a while and then said this. She doesn't want to escape now. Although everyone said that it was not her responsibility, Mei knew that if she hadn't been suppressed by the Herrscher consciousness at that time, maybe the whole city would not be able to escape. It will become like this, she clearly knows what she experienced at that time, so now Qiyana is in the same situation as herself.

And this time it was finally his turn to help her.

"Hey... What a little girl who likes to dig into the horns of the horns, it's done, let's see if this thing can be useful."

With Mei's attitude, Tesla didn't know how to persuade her. She was not good at this kind of thing, and all she could do was change the subject. They found a strange device, and now they plan to use this thing to find out where Kiyana is.

"The water body and atmosphere in Changkong City are full of Houkai energy. If you want to find Kiana and Jingu Rin, you have to filter out the energy of Herrscher. This is a new technology, and the detection range is limited. , only about three to five kilometers in radius."

Fiddling with the instruments on the ground, Tesla explained to Mei the disadvantages of this thing. Although it can detect and filter out the energy of Herrscher, the range is a bit stretched. If the radius is three to five kilometers, Mei will calculate with his chin Looking at the extent to be covered, it seems that this is still not a small project.

"In this case, at least three are needed to cover the entire Dongcheng district, and even more if the Xicheng district on the other side is counted."

It seems that it is too idealistic to quickly find Qiyana's location. We have to find a way to set up more detection instruments. If the entire city is covered, then we can capture Qiyana's location.

"Well, so you can't expect to... Huh? Found it?"

Before Tesla finished speaking, a striking red dot appeared on the screen, constantly flashing light, Tesla and Mei suddenly showed surprise expressions, they didn't expect to react so quickly, and If it is correct, the distance is right beside them.

"Doctor, have you found this!"

Mei quickly ran to Tesla's side, she stared at the light spot on the screen, hoping to hear what she wanted to hear from Tesla, and Tesla also quickly observed the light spot on the screen The beautiful eyes under the red-rimmed glasses shone with excitement, yes, that's right!

"Let me take a look, let me take a look, don't be in a hurry... Yes, although it is very faint, it is indeed the reaction of the Herrscher, and it is very close!... Wait a minute, take a closer look, isn't this right next to me !"

The more she watched, the more surprised she became. However, after observing the Herrsrscher's reaction in detail, Tesla put her eyes on Mei's body. She took Mei and walked a few steps to the side, and then looked at the reaction on the screen. The excited Dr. Lobsterhead was immediately discouraged.

"This seems to be... the reaction of your body? The Herrscher is by my side. Alas, it turned out to be this situation. I forgot. Although the gem of conquest is gone, there is still a weak body left on your body." Herrscher's energy, that's why it was detected by the detector."

I thought that the situation was really as smooth as I thought, Tesla was disappointed, so I said, I have never encountered such a simple and easy thing, I thought I could find Qiyana in a short time, now that I think about it, it really is It's because I think too much, and there is a long way to go.

"Well, that's right. Dr. Einstein's medical certificate also said so. She said that I am not a special case. The anti-entropy leader has also experienced a similar situation. Although the core of the Herrscher of Reason is not on him, but It’s good that he can still use part of the structure, but the specific reason is still unclear, and these energies... I can’t use it as I like.”

Looking at her palm, Mei could feel that there was indeed some Herrscher's power left in her body, especially when swinging a sword, but she couldn't use this power normally, if she could use it as she wanted, Will my own strength become stronger, strong enough to protect those people I want to protect?

"I don't recommend you to do this. Forcibly mobilizing the unstable power will only hurt yourself. Back to the topic, eliminate your reaction, there is nothing special here, alas, go to the next location, just be It's sightseeing, although it is a bit inappropriate to say this, but this flooded city actually looks quite spectacular."

Packing the backpack on the ground, Tesla felt like a geological surveyor now, beckoning Mei to move on to the next location, only by inserting these surveyors all over the city can she monitor all the collapses in the whole city Responses were then screened out for Herrscher's responses. Looking at the half-submerged city, Tesla walked forward while sightseeing. It was so difficult to walk under the water.

"Spectacular...Doctor, you should be more careful. The Houkai beasts are still active in the city. It's really strange. In the past three years, have these Houkai beasts stayed in the city?"

Serving as Tesla's guard, after all, this engineering girl doesn't have any positive combat capabilities. Mei draws her knife to guard her surroundings. She has seen several places where Houkai beasts wander just now. Thinking about such things, Mei sees When she saw the ruins of a building in front of her, she was stunned. She was quite familiar with this place.

"What's the matter, is there anything different about that building?"

Looking at Mei curiously, Tesla stood on tiptoe and looked at the building not far away. She didn't see anything special, but why did Mei show a look of nostalgia? It can be said that since coming to In Tianqiong City, she showed this expression from time to time. Is this city full of her memories?

"That big hole...was caused by me. Three years ago, I, Kiyana and Bronya fled Changkong City together, but we met here... Teacher Jizi's team. At that time, we thought she was Enemy, just...a little conflict occurred."

As if remembering the past, Mei's eyes are full of nostalgia, and she really wants to go back to the old days.

Chapter 8 Picking up someone

"Oh? There is such a thing, what about Rin Jingu? I remember what he said, I should have met you in Changkong City, what was he doing at that time."

Quite curious about things like this.Looking at the wreckage, Tesla thought they must have caused Jizi a lot of trouble. Then Tesla asked about Jingu Rin. As Jingu Rin shined in various incidents, his Various situations have also been recorded by major organizations, but now that the parties are here, Tesla is also curious about Jingu Rin's performance at that time.

"He...it's really thanks to him. During that battle, the Herrscher power in my body went berserk. Teacher Jizi tried his best to not suppress us, and finally used Huberian's The engine, if it wasn’t for the sudden appearance of Jingu Rin, I’m afraid both sides would be hurt, um... At that time, he suddenly fell from the sky from there. At that time, Jingu Rin was like an angel, and the blow was forever empty. The anti-aircraft missiles will defeat us in the stalemate... Most of the wreckage you see was caused by Jingu Rin at that time."

Recalling what happened at that time, Mei is still vivid until now, like an angel who fell into the world, the joining of Jingu Rin made the battle between them suddenly cease, and the two sides that were originally at war worked together to break the missile barrage After surviving, they picked Jingu Rin back to St. Freya. Now that I think about it, that decision should be the most correct decision I have ever made.

After that, Huberian went directly to the repair shop, and the shipboard weapons that were still in the experimental stage were completely scrapped. Mr. Jizi was almost punished by the headquarters for this, but in the end the head of the school took it down. Now that I think about it, those are all My precious memories.

Mei closed her eyes. On the way to escape, she was always afraid that she would lose control. At the moment when she ran away, she really thought that everything was over, but when she woke up, she found herself lying in a warm bed. Teacher Jizi stood beside her on the bed, not caring about her identity at all, she said that she would train herself into a warrior who could control her own power, and it was precisely because of this that Mei became a Valkyrie. ...Time flies so fast, it's been three years already.

He was willing to tell others about these things, and Tesla also listened very seriously. The two of them walked and chatted like this, and when they encountered the Honkai Beast, they would go around. Get rid of it, and gradually, the two of them approached the city center. There are very few roads to walk here. The overpasses and streets are all flooded with water. They don't know where to go. If they go on like this, it's simply It's just going in circles.

"Hey, there is no way to go, Mei, we can only go back to the previous intersection. I feel that we may have been infected by Jingu Rin. His lost attribute has developed to the point of human-to-human transmission. I fumbled forward, if only I had the current map."

Looking at the road flooded by water, Tesla sighed and prepared to go back, but Mei stretched out her arms and hugged her waist, and before Tesla could cry out, she took her gently If there is no way, just jump over. This platform is very suitable for building survey equipment.

"Huh...you should at least tell me when you plan to do this. I hate Valkyries like you who act willfully and recklessly because of your good physical fitness. If you damage this lady's You pay me for the instrument... Oops!"

Muttering in his mouth, Tesla began to build new detection equipment after landing, but Tesla's feet seemed to be unsteady, and the girl staggered and sat on the ground. What's going on? There seems to be something on the ground. something strange.

"It hurts, hurts...Mei, don't worry about me, look at what is in the grass, according to the touch of the soles of my feet, it should not be ordinary stones or the like."

Ignoring her sore butt from the fall, Tesla pointed to the bushes and asked Mei to see what was inside. Seeing that Tesla was fine, Mei went to the place where she stumbled and searched carefully. Both Tesla and Mei were puzzled by the blue sphere on the ground.

"This is... an anti-entropy guiding robot? Why is this thing here? It doesn't look like it was thrown here three years ago. It looks quite new... Never mind, put it away first. , Maybe it will be useful, Mei, guard your surroundings, I'm going to start building survey equipment."

I didn't take this kind of thing to heart. Anyway, Tesla would often pick up some weird junk and pile it up in the laboratory, and put the guiding robot into the backpack. Tesla started his work, and the two were full of expectations. I started to build the device, but this time there was still only one red dot representing Mei blinking on the screen alone. Alas, it seems that there is no trace of Kiana in this area, and I have to go to the next place to find it again.

Although they had already thought of this result, the two couldn't help being discouraged, Mei sighed slightly, it wasn't here, where would Kiyana be, but Tesla found something wrong, it seemed that there was something wrong just now. There was a different reaction, not the Herrscher, but something else.

"Wait a minute, there seems to be other reactions."

Tesla turned off the screening, and a large number of dense red dots of different sizes appeared on the screen immediately. Among these red dots, Tesla keenly captured a different reaction. She pointed to the screen. One of them said so.

"There's a strange reaction here, it doesn't look like a dead man or a Houkai beast...is it a...humanoid reaction?"

Speaking of the end, Tesla is a little uncertain. How could there be signs of human activities in this city? It has long been unsuitable for human habitation.

"Humans? How could there be people in Changkong City?"

Mei is also very puzzled, and Tesla has already packed his backpack. Instead of guessing here, it is better to go over and take a look as soon as possible. He is very confident in his device, and Tesla is sure that it is in that position. With the existence of human beings, no matter what, it is necessary to explore information.

So the two of them moved towards the place where the reaction came from. Not long after, Tesla and Mei saw a strange thing crouching in the grass...

"Ah, it's not a strange thing, it seems to be a person."

Chapter 9 empty

The person who appeared in front of Tesla and Mei was indeed a person. To be precise, it was a little girl lying unconscious in the grass. Under the hood was a young face. Mei and Tesla looked at each other. , From the eyes of both parties, they could see that they were puzzled, why did such a child appear here.

Changkong City was deeply affected by the Honkai radiation, coupled with the reason for the influx of sea water, this place is no longer suitable for people to live in, and how could such a girl appear in such an environment, she will appear here, it is really amazing It makes people think deeply.

"Wake up, please wake up... There is no way, doctor, what should we do now, can't we just leave her here and ignore it?"

Mei stepped forward to check the girl's condition at this time, her breathing is still stable, and there is no obvious trauma on her body, it should be just an ordinary coma, but if she is left here and ignored, the child will definitely have an accident , Mei is a kind-hearted girl, asking her to do such a thing, she can't do it.

"Haven't you already made a decision, why do you still ask me? Let me tell you first, you have to carry her yourself. I have so much luggage, so I don't have time to carry her. Take her back to the Helios." , there is a professional infirmary there, no matter what, we still have to wake her up first."

Tesla gave Mei a blank look. Didn't she ask herself knowingly? How could she not care about such a thing? When Tesla responded, Mei put the girl on her back with a slight smile. This kind of thing can only be put aside for the survey mission, the two returned to the Helios, and soon, the girl was sent to the infirmary.

----------------

Not long after bringing the girl to the infirmary, she woke up. Mei looked at the girl inside through the glass window. At this time, Tesla was asking the girl about various things in the infirmary. It could be seen that the girl She was very nervous, but she was still listening carefully, and she would say a few words from time to time. Originally, this kind of work should be done by the friendly Mei, but... I believe that Dr. Tesla should also Very friendly, right?

What an unyielding Dr. Lobster Head.

"Doctor, what's the situation?"

Seeing Tesla coming out, Mei hurriedly stepped forward to ask, it seems that Tesla must have obtained some useful information, the girl was sitting quietly on the bed, who is she?

"As we have guessed before, she is a refugee from Changkong City. Her name is Kong... What a sloppy name. She grew up in Changkong City and fled to Dongcheng District after the collapse. They stayed there all the time, there were more than a dozen other people besides her, all of them were children, the oldest was no more than 16 years old, and they lived together in the ruined Changkong City for three full years."

I told Mei what I just learned, that girl was very cooperative, she would say whatever I asked, but this information made Tesla a little concerned, living in such a city for three years... ..It sounds unbelievable, but looking at her eyes, it should be true.

"How could this be... It is said that after the collapse of the front, Destiny dispatched three branches to launch a joint rescue of Changkong City, and there are still missing refugees... This shouldn't be."

This fact also made Mei frown. After all, this is the place where everything started. Mei would also pay attention to what happened in Changkong City. But now according to the little girl named Kong, a group of them have lived here for three years, and they haven't waited for rescue yet.

"I asked her about the situation at that time, but she seems to have lost her memory. She doesn't remember anything about the time of the collapse... Tsk, memory loss is really a good reason. These children are now living in a group called Nest Do you have any impression of this name?"

Tesla curled his lips, the collection of information is still incomplete, she still has a lot of things she wants to know, but the little girl doesn't seem to remember, the other party's timid look made Tesla very confused, as if she It's like a man-eating monster, obviously he is the benefactor who saved her.

"Nest? I don't remember such a place in Changkong City."

Mei shook her head. At that time, she was studying at Qianyu College in Changkong City, so she knew the city well, but she had never heard of this place. Excluding the possibility of urban legends, this place called Nest should be collapsing The place was named three years after the event.

"According to what she said, there was a manager there, who seemed to be a woman. Xiao Kong called her a teacher. The teacher was not in Changkong City at ordinary times and only came back once a month or two. Every time he came back, he would bring food and daily necessities. Nest relies on this method to maintain supplies. Now the question is, since that teacher has the ability to freely enter and leave Changkong City, why didn't she choose to take these children out?"

Feeling that things are getting more and more complicated, Tesla rubbed her hair like crazy. The situation was already very complicated, but she brought out a bunch of problems and messed up the status quo. Jiwotou's bedroom is still messy, no, no, no, I have to think about it and sort out the current situation.

Thinking so much made Tesla's head a little swollen. She waved her hand at Mei and signaled her to deal with that little girl. She had to find a quiet place to soothe her mind. It's easy to use, but you have to give it a rest time. There are too many problems now.

"Understood, doctor, you can go and have a good rest."

Mei nodded, and then she pushed open the door of the infirmary and walked in. Hearing the sound of the door, the little girl who was sitting quietly on the bed looked up, and Mei greeted her with a gentle smile. She felt that her affinity should be stronger than that of Tesla, and now this deceitful smile should easily reassure her.

"Hi, I'm Raiden Mei, please call me Mei."

"Ah... Hello, Meba..."
