The Crucifixion Cross

She picked up Morgana who was also in a state of shock in front of her, and then kicked the ground hard, urging the power of Persona in her body, and rushed forward quickly.

Xiao's actions were clearly seen by the person standing behind her, but the person did not stop him, but folded his arms and looked at the girl not far away.

In the thick shadows, the figure of the man and the girl could not be seen clearly.

The man could only roughly tell that the stalker was a slim girl, and so was Akatsuki.

Aside from gender and approximate age range, it's a state of complete ignorance.

Seemingly dissatisfied with this vague situation, the man frowned and snapped his fingers lightly.

So, in the next moment, a bright light hit her like a spotlight on the stage.

That person was obviously already prepared, and the instant light-dark change didn't make her even the slightest bit uncomfortable.

This sudden bright light only allowed Akatsuki to see her appearance clearly—it was a young woman in her twenties.

Her appearance was hidden under a dark purple crow mask that was more decorative than practical, only her lips with a slight smile and a delicate white chin were exposed.

With just one glance, Akatsuki couldn't help saying, "This must be a magnificent beauty", even if she couldn't see the other person's face at all.

However, compared to the appearance hidden under the mask, Akatsuki cared more about her costume-like dress.

At this time, Xiao's use of the word 'costume' was really not ironic, because the dark purple dress on her was too gorgeous.

Rather than in a gloomy and dark corner, such a gorgeous dress should appear at a masquerade ball—if the maker of this dress didn't specially adopt a design that is convenient for movement, Akatsuki would definitely complain like this.

However, as she saw, although this dress is very gorgeous, it does not restrict the wearer like a real dress, or on the contrary, although the dress on the young woman is gorgeous, before it is gorgeous, This skirt should pay more attention to the dexterity and lightness of activities.

A real phantom thief - Akatsuki couldn't help but think so.

The attire of the person opposite and the exquisite mask filled her with the aura of a 'monster thief', so that Akatsuki subconsciously regarded her as her colleague.

What puzzled Akatsuki even more was that there was a familiar "taste" coming from this "colleague", and there was a wonderful sense of intimacy...

This feeling of deja vu made Akatsuki subconsciously think of a girl named 'Raiden Mei'.

Akatsuki didn't know why she had this strange feeling, and even began to wonder if there was something wrong with her, otherwise why did everyone have a "wonderful sense of intimacy"?

Baiyu Sufei is like this, Leiden Mei is like this, and now even an enemy who has prepared to ambush her is like this...

Although she was at a loss, she, who was always rational, didn't spend too long on useless thinking. After taking a quick look at the other party, she immediately entered a state of alert.

Now that things are over, think about the other party's true identity and 'Oops, it's a trap! 'Things like this are meaningless, her actions have long been seen by the other party, and now she has been caught, and there is almost no room for turning around.

Instead of wasting time on these things that are a foregone conclusion, it is better to think about how to get out...

While Akatsuki was thinking about these things, Morgana who was held in her arms just wanted to cry.

It fully understands why Akatsuki suddenly thinks of Raiden Mei, and it also knows where those wonderful intimacy come from——Lai Qixiao, who is the container of the 'fake Herrscher', saw those people who are genuine 'Herserscher' , It would be inconceivable if there was no intimacy!

Raiden Mei, that is the third Herrscher appointed by its owner Cocolia—no, it is the fourth Herrscher who has not yet awakened, the Thunder Herrscher of Conquest!

And the reason why Raiden Mei's serial number changed from third to fourth was because Akatsuki, a phantom thief girl who was caught off guard, was the current third herrscher, the ice herrscher of wild death!

Morgana was on the verge of tears.

It obviously just wanted to test the loyalty of Persona in Xiao's body to her, and the test site was not the real world but the 'Magic Palace', but why, why did the Third Herrscher appear here! ?

With the Third Herrscher as the opponent, even the Joker who has awakened multiple Personas will definitely not be able to please—no, it should be said that it is a fluke to be able to go back alive!

God is going to kill me! ?

Morgana thought desperately.

Akatsuki didn't feel the fear and despair in her companion's heart, because she had already focused all her attention on the Masked Phantom Thief not far away—by the way, Akatsuki was actually a "Masked Phantom Thief" herself, but she didn't have the masked Phantom Thief opposite. It's just so gorgeous.

She carefully protected Morgana in her arms, and then used the power of Persona to manifest the weapons used when she appeared as Joker-pistol and short sword.

Seeing this scene, Miss Mei, who replaced Mei as the head of the Third Herrscher—or rather, 'Phantom Thief Purple Iris Karen Kaslana' raised her eyebrows with interest.

"It's just a pseudo Herrscher, but do you have the courage to challenge the real Herrscher?" Kallen, who took control of this body instead of Miss Leader's consciousness, looked at Xiao who was fully on guard with interest, " It’s hard to say anything else, this loyalty to anti-entropy—no, it should be said to Cocolia is still very commendable. But it’s a pity, since you really came to this white feather building as the young master said house, then..."

With that said, Karen raised her hand and snapped her fingers again.

After a soft 'snap', a heavy whistling sound pierced the air from a distance—it was a mechanical giant sword woven of black and silver.

Under the light of the spotlight, the wide blade reflected ice-like sharpness.

"I can only ask you to stay here—"

Karen held the giant sword and added with a smile:

"--forever."

Hua Ling's words: Chapter 1 of the prequel White Flower Sirius has been remade, and interested readers can eat it after refreshing~

Chapter 54. Pale Justice

To be honest, if it wasn't for the opposing positions of the two, Kallen would actually like to have a good chat with this younger generation who looks like a "Phantom Thief" and behaves like a "Phantom Thief". of.

It's a pity that since the owner of this body has taken over the task of the young master, no matter how regretful Karen is in her heart, she must complete the task assigned by the young master—maybe it is because she is with the head lady The time is too long, the relationship with the head lady is very good, and the OL beauty who belongs to the "older unmarried" group is called "young master" and "little master" all day long. Now Karen has also started to use "little master" 'Come to address Su Fei.

For Kallen, who has experienced many battles and even once won the title of "The Strongest Valkyrie of Destiny", even if a mere sixteen or seventeen-year-old high school student awakens a remarkable power due to some coincidence, in her In his eyes, he was just an opponent who could be dealt with casually.

However, Karen also understands the truth that 'the living captive is the most valuable captive'.

As 'Kaslana', she understands the relationship between people far better than 'Karen', and Karen, who knows everything about Miss Leader, feels that it is necessary for her to push her into the group Ms. Chang gave me a hand—whether it was because of Karen's guilt towards Ms. Leader, or for other reasons, all in all, in Kallen's eyes, the label of 'junior' was slowly fading away, replaced by A big 'credit' that can satisfy the young master.

If it was 500 years ago, a trivial matter of this level would be nothing more than a little effort, but now... To be honest, Karen still has a little headache in her heart.

From the perspective of physical fitness and Hoonkai adaptability alone, the body of Miss Leader, who has been baptized with a high concentration of Hoonkai, can probably explode eight hundred blocks from the deity's body, but as the saying goes, 'too much is not enough', too Being so strong that it is too strong is actually not a good thing.

Powerful means difficult to control, which is the source of Karen's headache.

To make matters worse, the weapon she used at this time was not the usual double swords (Caslana's first weapon was double swords, and it was only after the Middle Ages that she switched to double guns to play gun fighting). Double guns and Judas, It is a heavy mechanical giant sword equipped with high-power thrusters.

This mechanical giant sword, named after the frost giant Hrungnir in Norse mythology, is one of the trophies that Mishima got after he captured the Berlin military base of Destiny.

The shape full of sci-fi style and the powerful destructive power brought by the dual propulsion engines made Su Fei fall in love with this mighty and domineering heavy armor at a glance. The head lady teamed up to create a new core driver for the giant sword - Su Feiguan called the frost drive made by the two of them "Frost Nova", and the head lady said that you are happy, young master.

Under the influence of these two big figures with super high levels of existence, Hrungnir, who originally only belonged to the "Gods" series, was suddenly raised to the point where infinity is equal to the key of God—who made Su Fei an expert at twisting the law? Big brother, is Miss Leader the genuine Third Herrscher?

If the weapons that these two work together to upgrade are not strong, then it is really unreasonable.

With a powerful body and extremely destructive weapons, if the goal is just to destroy the enemy, it couldn't be easier for Kallen.

It's a pity that Karen's goal at this time is not to 'destroy', but to 'capture'... This gave her a headache.

"As far as I'm concerned, it's better for you to surrender happily, cute little bird?" Kallen gently tossed the braids of pure white hair dyed by Honkai, and said with a smile: "Fly freely!" Although the birds in the sky are beautiful, the weeping birds imprisoned in the birdcage have a special charm, don't they?"

Faced with Kallen's threat, Akatsuki finally chose to respond with silence.

She really didn't know what to say.

This young woman who looks like her is full of "Phantom Thief" is obviously a more "competent" Phantom Thief than her - at least Akatsuki can't learn that pompous and contrived tone.

However, before feeling sincere respect for the 'senior's dedication', the first thing Akatsuki noticed were the two words that she had no impression of—AntiEn·t·ropy?Cocolia?

The latter sounds like a personal name, while the former is closer to the name of an organization or group.

AntiEn·t·ropy is a very uncommon word for ordinary high school students, but Xiao Xiao is worthy of being a super college bully full of five-dimensional points, and quickly translated it into words that he can understand.

Entropy is a proper term for the second law of thermodynamics, which symbolizes the demise and annihilation of all things, while anti-entropy is full of positive meanings, and it feels like "choking the throat of fate".

Xiao can be sure that she has never heard these two words before, and looking at the meaning of 'senior', it is obvious that she is regarded as an assassin sent by the hostile forces related to 'Cocolia' and 'Anti-Entropy'.

The moment he figured this out, feelings of grievance and happiness emerged in Akatsuki's heart at the same time—the grievance was because he was misunderstood as an assassin, and the luck was because as long as he could communicate well and resolve the misunderstanding, everything would be fine. .

What she did seems to be quite... not honest, but Xiao didn't have any malice towards Su Fang in her heart, she just wanted to use the power of Persona to distort the shadow that may exist in Su Fang's heart. The negative emotions presented by the entity in the magic palace - just get rid of it.

Akatsuki licked her chapped lips lightly, and explained quickly:

"Anti-entropy? Cocolia? Sorry, I think you misunderstood something. There is no relationship between me and them..."

"Heh—" Before Xiao could finish explaining, Kallen interrupted her words with a mocking chuckle, "Sure enough, as the young master said, once you are caught and hurt your feet, the first thing you think of is never Suicide or escape, but put aside the relationship with Cocolia... Sometimes, I really admire you loyal guys."

As she said that, Karen slowly raised the heavy mechanical giant sword, and pointed the wide and heavy blade at Akatsuki who was not far away.

There was a icy chill in the air, and the cold breath was like chains, firmly locking Xiao who was crouching on the ground.

For a moment, Akatsuki couldn't even breathe smoothly.

Seeing Akatsuki with a pale face (Akatsuki's mask is not fully covered), Kallen smiled silently.

"But it doesn't matter, if you don't admit it, don't admit it. As long as you are caught, the rest will be easy to solve-the amount of Veritaserum in Mishima's stockpile is far more than you imagined?"

Mishima...! ?

The moment this word, which is familiar to all in the Far East, came from the mouth of 'senior', Akatsuki's expression finally changed.

Sheng Xiang, Su Fang, the peaceful campus atmosphere, the incredible sense of oppression, the strict and outrageous precautionary measures... When there is an additional "three islands" between these keywords, the originally fragmented clues seem to be lost in an instant. A complete context was pieced together.

It's a pity that before Deng Xiao could figure it out, an afterimage of icy blue flashed across her field of vision like a fright.

The alarm bell in his mind rang crazily, and the icy blue sword shadow set off a fierce storm, and the terrifying power almost made Xiao's heart stop for a moment.

"...!"

At the critical moment, Akatsuki no longer cared about the relationship between these guys. She just threw Morgana in her arms to a safe place with lightning speed, and then took a deep breath, calling in her heart to be with her for the longest time. Persona's name——

Arsène...!

Responding to the call of the host, the man with wings, named after the famous phantom thief Arsène Lupin written by the French writer Maurice Leblanc, came to the world with a storm of red and black flames!

The wide wings spread out, violent flames swept every corner of the field of vision, the extremely high temperature distorted the air, and the crimson flames almost gave Akatsuki the illusion that the whole world was burning.

The trust in Persona's power made Akatsuki, who had no time to dodge, breathe a sigh of relief.

She believed in the power of Arsène, and believed that her Persona would definitely help her out of the predicament.

However, before she breathed a sigh of relief, an afterimage of ice blue broke into her field of vision again——

The wide and thick blade rolled up an icy blue storm, and in just a split second, the cold icy color was torn into pieces by the flames that brought Akatsuki a sense of peace of mind.

The faint mourning sound in the air made Xiao's body freeze. She looked at Persona who was cut in two by a sword in disbelief. Those light-colored eyes reflected Arsène's tragic figure before she died and the person who was killed. Little sparks torn to pieces.

The sparks dancing in the night sky are like the slight sense of security that Arsène brought her, which was shattered in an instant...

At this moment, unprecedented despair emerged from the depths of his heart, almost depriving Akatsuki of all of his ability to think.

She could only stay where she was, waiting for the heavy blade to take her life.

Time did not stand still because of the desperate situation Xiao was facing, and even Xiao felt resigned to her fate in her heart, but at this moment, this unique moment, a pale phantom suddenly appeared in Xiao's mind deep.

She raised her head in a daze, her eyes were on the icy blue sword shadow, but what was reflected in her pupils were two blue stars——

"Pale... Justice!"

Hualing’s words: I submitted my resume to MHY, and the positions I applied for are 'player maintenance' and 'copywriting planning'... If you are really selected, it will be fun, maybe I will write the main plot of Honkai 4

White Flower and Sirius②——Cecilia and Uracka

Before the phrase "Welcome" that has been said countless times, Yuri was slightly taken aback by the familiar fragrance of lilies——

So familiar smell...

Yuri thought silently in his heart.

Although the faint fragrance of lilies was mixed between the coldness of early winter and the coolness brought by ice and snow, Yuri, who has always been sensitive to smells, would not let it go.

However, although there is a feeling of deja vu, Yuri can be sure that in the first 17 years of his life, he has never been exposed to such an embarrassing fresh and elegant fragrance.

Some kind of strange sense of incongruity made Yuri frowned slightly.

At this moment, the guest's confused voice came from behind.

"That... hello, may I ask, does this restaurant provide board and lodging?"

This sound was like breaking ice and cutting snow, and it was as clear as if the mountain snow was melted by the warm sun in early spring, with a somewhat fascinating ethereal and clear.

The sound of Yuri's gradually wandering thoughts came back to the world, and he quickly turned around knowing that he was being rude, and there was also a signature warm smile on that handsome face that countless young girls were fascinated by.

He turned his gaze to where the voice came from, and said apologetically:

"I'm very sorry, guest, we are a restaurant and..."

No lodging was provided——Yuri wanted to say that, but when the face of the guest entered his field of vision, the astonishing beauty temporarily deprived him of his ability to speak.

Yuri is not a writer who is good at writing and writing, and his writing skills are only average, so it is difficult for him to accurately describe the beautiful appearance of that person with gorgeous words, and he can only use the words "closed moon" that he heard from the boss. Words that sound powerful like "shame flowers" and "sinking fish and wild geese" are all used in one go.

The speed of the heartbeat accelerated a little, and the sounds of 'bang', 'bang', 'bang' almost covered up the whistling of the wind and snow. Ri's complexion showed an unnatural crimson.

very strange feeling...
