The Paladin on the Infinite Tour

Even in my wildest dreams, I would never dream of such a thing.

"This shouldn't be... considered a side effect of recovering memories, right?" Sakura glanced at Su, "Su should have also received the memories, right?"

【Um. Kevin and I have both accepted the memory in Luo Ye. Although our consciousness was indeed confused for a moment, there was no such strong change as Hua... Becoming a Herrscher, I didn't expect Himihu's situation at that time. It will happen to Hua. 】

Himiko.

The name Su mentioned made the pre-civilized people look shocked.

It is indeed a very similar situation, Himiko's time was the same. Yesterday, she was still trusted by everyone within the Fire Chasing Moth, but she directly became the Herrscher without any warning.

And now Fu Hua...

[But the good news is that Immortal Red Kite has not completely become a Herrscher, right? 】

Otto smiled.

[Although the reaction of the Herrscher's core was detected, there shouldn't be any record of a super-large collapse event in the observation records of the Thousand Realms Ichiyana, right? I think the only record in the past month is the Manila incident. 】

[Yes] Su nodded.

[This is proof that my old friend has not become a Herrscher yet. If my guess is correct, maybe her current situation is very similar to that of Wendy Valkyrie. It is a situation where the Herrscher core appears in the body, but the Herrscher consciousness has not completely occupied her body.]

Wendy.

Hearing this name from Otto's mouth again, Exia also thought of her - so to speak, it was indeed very similar.

"So... now there is a Herrscher's consciousness in Ah Hua's body? And the Herrscher's consciousness still wants to rob Ah Hua's body?" Padofelis asked, "Then this is not It’s not good! We have to help Ah Hua get rid of that Herrscher consciousness quickly!”

"Please leave this matter to me."

Shajo Aige volunteered: "This is the third time I have dealt with the Herrscher's consciousness. The Herrscher of the Sky and the Herrscher of Ice have both been solved easily. It's no problem to leave it to me this time."

indeed.

If it is Shajo Aige who has the record of sealing the consciousness of two Herrschers, then it is quite trustworthy. The Herrscher consciousness in Fu Hua has not yet taken over her body. In other words, now may be the best time to defeat her, and it is also the time when she is most vulnerable.

"Then let me start, Miss Fu Hua?"

"...No, I don't think it will work this time."

【Agree】

Fu Hua and Su suddenly raised objections at the same time.

This surprised everyone.

Alicia: "What's wrong? Hua, Su. Is there any problem?"

"The problem... I can't talk about it, but I feel that the Herrscher consciousness in my body cannot be dealt with in the same way as before. Su must have thought of the same reason, right?"

[Well - I'd better tell you something first, it's about Prometheus No. 17]

Prometheus Seventeen.

This name is not unfamiliar to Yingjie. Even Sakura has known its existence for so many years in the Paradise of the Past.

The super artificial intelligence developed by Dr. Mei in the previous civilization hacked into a certain field through the back door during the Final Battle, and became the so-called "Helloshake Will", and used it to control the release of Herrscher's power, making the present Civilized Herrschers can remain consistent with previous civilizations in terms of appearance order and Herrscher powers.

[According to our original conjecture, the one who appeared during the collapse in the Manila area should be the Herrscher of Wind, but what actually appeared was the Herrscher of Ice who was supposed to appear in the next collapse——This Kevin and I both believe that the abnormal situation is not without reason]

[After combining the situation, we came to a conjecture - Prometheus releases power faster]

[The reason is probably that during the Second Collapse, the Second Herrscher once went to the moon and obtained four Herrscher gems from the back, representing the Herrscher of Thunder, the Herrsher of Wind, and the Herrscher of Death. and the Lawr of Fire. These four Herrscher gems are now made into the keys of the four-core gods, and are used by Exia]

"Um."

Alexia nodded and took out the [Victory Crown] in flintlock mode from under her clothes.

Su's explanation continued: [Four pieces of Herrscher gems were made into the God Key, plus this is the Herrscher gem obtained by the second Herrscher from the moon. Therefore, this situation may be regarded as Prometheus directly releasing the Herrscher powers of the four Herrschers in one go]

[And this also means that the Herrschers of this generation have actually advanced to the Seventh Herrscher many years ago. It is just because the Fifth Herrscher has not yet arrived in the middle, so it was only during the collapse of Manila that The Fifth Herrscher will be born]

[Now that the Fifth Herrscher has been defeated, the powers of the Sixth Herrscher and the Seventh Herrscher have already been released. So, please think about it carefully, who should the upcoming eighth Herrscher be? 】

The Eighth Herrscher.

If you look at it in the order of pre-civilization...

"——The Herrscher of Consciousness." Fu Hua himself said the name of the Herrscher's consciousness in his body, "The Herrscher who controls consciousness has almost no one else in terms of power in consciousness."

The Herrscher of Consciousness.

[The Lawyer of Knowledge]

At this time, others also fully understood the reason why Su and Fu Hua stopped Shajo Aige - to compete with the Herrscher who controls consciousness in the field of consciousness. Even if Shajo Aige has the power of the Great Holy Grail, then The odds of winning are slim, and the possibility of being defeated by the Herrscher of Knowledge in turn is not impossible, and may even be very high.

"In addition...perhaps because of Kiana and Anna's experiences, for the Herrscher of Knowledge, I actually don't think it is necessary to defeat her."

"Eh?"

What Fu Hua said next made everyone stunned.

Is there no need to defeat the Herrscher of Consciousness?

"What does this mean? Hua. Could it be that the Herrscher of Knowledge is our friend?"

"..."

No nodding, no looking back.

After a moment of silence, Fu Hua took a deep breath as if he had made some decision: "Next, I will temporarily hand over my body to the Herrscher of Knowledge. You...you see You should know what I mean after experiencing her situation."

After saying that, Fu Hua closed his eyes.

next moment--

"Huh? It's finally my turn?"

It was still Fu Hua's voice, but the tone had obviously changed. At the same time, everyone was keenly aware that Fu Hua's aura had undergone an almost earth-shaking change.

Opening his eyes again, [Fu Hua] looked at the people around him: "Oh~~~ They are all here, um, it's good, good! Good morning, everyone!"

"...."

"Huh? What's wrong? Why don't you say anything? You are not mute, are you?"

"Um..." Alicia, the most shy person, was the first to speak tentatively: "Are you... Hua?"

"Otherwise? Why are you all like this? I haven't had plastic surgery or makeup. Who else could the person with this face be but Fu Hua? Is there something wrong?"

(Is this what Hua/Fu Hua/Master can say?!)

Everyone immediately leaned back involuntarily.

"Oh, forget it, let's not talk about this. This kind of trivial matter is not worth mentioning. Compared with this, the most important thing is-"

Turning his head, [Fu Hua] looked at Alexia sitting next to him, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, turned over and sat on Alexia's lap, grabbed his collar, and pressed one knee against him Between her legs, she looked down at him like a queen.

"——Come, good apprentice, your voice is nice!"

Alexia: "...Huh?"

58.Master? Madam!

Because the contrast between before and after was so great, it made Exia feel like she was struck by lightning, and she was stunned for a second or two before she made any movement.

"Does the scream sound nice? Uh... [Master]?"

"wrong!"

[Fu Hua] hit Alexia's head directly.

"I told you it has a nice scream!"

"..."

So what does she want to hear?

Apart from calling Fu Hua by his real name, the only other way Alexia calls Fu Hua is master, and Fu Hua has always thought that this is pretty good.

Now I suddenly want him to scream [nicely]...

"Well, master, I'm just going to ask directly, what do you want me to call you?"

"Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid?"

[Fu Hua] maintained the posture of the domineering female president and further suppressed Alexia: "You said those words to me so passionately last night, so you don't need to call me any name. Say more, huh? Good disciple."

"last night......"

"Oh?"

Before Alexia could start to think carefully, there was a sound of joining in the fun from Alicia's side.

There was a bit of interest in her eyes, as if she had written "I'm curious" on it. Alicia came to Alexia and poked his hand: "You can't pretend you didn't hear this~ ~~Mr. Exia, what did you whisper to our Hua last night?"

"Well...well...well...it's actually nothing."

Alexia's eyes wandered for a few times, and then she glanced aside: "That means telling the master that I like her, and that no matter what happens, I will always be here...that's it."

"Oh~~~so romantic?"

Alicia completely became a best friend who wanted to scream after hearing her good sisters' confession. Both her face and eyes changed in a direction that was dangerous in every sense of the word. When others heard what Exia said, they all looked at her sideways, and Su even opened his eyes.

[Ahaha~~~~Exia, you are really...]

Otto was also a little overwhelmed.

He was the one who sent Alexia to Fu Hua back then. His original intention was just to make Alexia stronger, and he also followed Alexia's own desire to become stronger. As a result, now...he, the apprentice, actually fell in love with his master, and he said it directly.

This situation...

"Is this...is this relationship messed up? The combination of Grand Master and Junior Master...what should I call this?" Li Sushang was undoubtedly the one who received the biggest impact.

Being born in China, she actually cares a little about seniority.

Fu Hua is her grand master, and Alexia is her junior master uncle. The relationship is pretty clear, but if these two become partners, what should she, the youngest, call her?

"Call it whatever you like... No, wait, wait, wait."

Halfway through the words, [Fu Hua] suddenly got up from Alexia and came to Li Suchang. He covered her face with his hands and looked at her for a while: "Aren't you the girl who stabbed me more than five hundred years ago? I remember your name is...Li Sushang? I didn't expect to meet you here! Just in time! Come and settle the score!"

"ah?"

Li Sushang couldn't help but be stunned by the sudden invitation to fight.

Why are things from more than five hundred years ago suddenly brought up again? Since Li Sushang and Fu Hua met about that incident, the two had actually talked once or twice, and they had already reached a tacit consensus. Let the past matter go by and get along well now.

Why is [Fu Hua]... or the Herrscher of Consciousness provoking it again now?

"No, no, no, Grand Master, wait a minute, didn't you agree not to fight?"

"When did I say that? You stabbed me in the face, how can I seek revenge from you?"

The truth is indeed such a truth!

But if we really want to fight now...

"Okay, you go back first."

Just when Honkai energy surged in the Herrscher of Consciousness and it looked like she would take action at any time, Fu Hua's original voice suddenly came from her mouth.

"Eh? Old Antique, you——"

The Herrscher of Knowledge suddenly looked anxious, but without giving her a chance to do anything else, she closed her eyes directly. Then when she opened her eyes again, the atmosphere brought by the Herrscher of Knowledge suddenly disappeared. Disappeared, and the sense of calmness that belonged to Fu Hua returned to her.

"Sorry, Su Shang. Herrscher of Knowledge has all my memories, so she cares about the past between you and me."

"Oh~~~That's it. That's good. I don't want to fight with the Grand Master again."

When it comes to fighting in the martial arts world, it is important for one master to become famous. The matter between Li Sushang and Fu Hua had long since disappeared with the battle more than five hundred years ago, and now she had no reason to fight with Fu Hua.

"Of course I don't want to fight you, and Ixia, you don't have to be ready to use the power of the Great Holy Grail at any time. I can control the consciousness of the Herrscher of Knowledge very well, so don't worry for the time being."

"......Really?"

Alexia did not put down her hands - just now, when the Herrscher of Knowledge wanted to fight Li Sushang, he was ready to directly seal her consciousness. Even if she is the Herrscher of Consciousness, she may fail, but when it comes to the safety of Li Suchang and Fu Hua, Alexia is willing to take risks.

Fu Hua nodded, took the initiative to hold Alexia's hand and put it down: "Well, it's okay. You are here, you said so yourself."

"......All right."

"So, with this, everyone will understand what I just meant, right?"

Fu Hua brought the topic back to the topic again.
