Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

The girl said so.

The entire room fell silent for a moment.

No one could have imagined that the girl would betray them at such a time.

Not only that, but they also managed to seriously injure the Herrscher.

As the hurricane gradually dissipated, many people breathed a sigh of relief and cast grateful glances.

"You can die now."

The fragile trust collapsed.

Wendy was furious at the feeling of being deceived and used again.

In the end, there wasn't a single person I could trust.

Humanity is indeed rotten to the core.

Without the slightest hesitation, she endured the pain in her chest and her long hair transformed into a sharp blade, piercing into the girl's body.

Things went very smoothly, eerily smoothly.

Wendy was surprised, her pupils widening slightly. Why didn't Ziyao dodge?

Unbeknownst to her, behind her lay a special anti-Herrscher device—the Staff of the Underworld.

The strands of hair, transformed into sharp blades, pierced through the girl's chest, instantly staining her pure white shirt crimson.

“…”

Theresa was stunned, feeling terrible, filled with guilt and self-blame for her incompetence.

If Nightingale hadn't shot Wendy, she would be the one stabbed now.

"Cough cough..."

The excruciating pain nearly rendered Ziyao unable to move.

This is a risky move.

The Herrscher's mental strength was too strong; even with violent fluctuations, she still couldn't control it.

[Ding! Karen - Sin Hunter has been destroyed.]

As the price for suffering damage, the doll was destroyed.

Ziyao continued forward, while Wendy, bewildered, retreated backward, as if a hurricane was about to form.

A moment's hesitation sealed her fate.

Taking advantage of the doll's remaining strength, Ziyao pushed over Wendy, who was also injured.

The anti-Herrscher device immediately activated, unleashing a torrent of lightning.

The influence of the Destructive Will on the girl's mind came to an abrupt end.

The inner chaos and madness gradually disappeared.

It's like falling asleep in the afternoon and waking up to find yourself alone in the dead of night, feeling incredibly lost and empty.

The collapse refused to stop there, and returned like a persistent, malignant tumor.

Wendy wanted to resist, but she was powerless to do so.

On her deathbed, she saw the injured girl.

Is she helping me?

Even with her dull mind, Wendy figured out why she had regained her senses.

The price was simple: the girl in front of him looked like she was about to die, her breath weak.

She reached out her hand, wanting to heal Ziyao, but felt a pang of regret.

However, darkness reached out from behind and dragged her into the river of consciousness.

..

"Lady Durandal, you should go and rest first. I still have some energy left."

Gripping the sickle tightly, Rita's hair was a little disheveled; the wind was stronger than usual today.

The Wind Ruler is more troublesome than imagined. Its ability to control ideal fluids is brought to its fullest potential in the rain, giving it a perfect advantage.

The Herrschers' power has been greatly weakened, and they cannot let Miss Nightingale's efforts go to waste.

"Mei, let me through."

Kiana's eyes turned golden, and seeing that Ziyao was seriously injured, she hurriedly tried to go up and save her.

"Calm down, we don't have the ability to confront a Herrscher head-on."

Mei was also very anxious; the sight of the girl lying on the ground pierced her heart for a moment.

But now they must remain calm and not cause any more trouble.

After several encounters, Mei realized the vast difference between herself and the Herrscher.

Moreover, even with all three S-class Valkyries gathered, they didn't get a chance to appear.

Although I was unwilling, I had no choice but to leave it to them.

"Emperor-class Honkai Beast!"

Someone exclaimed that the Honkai Beast had torn through the Valkyries' defenses and was charging towards the Herrscher.

Are they guards?

Mei gripped the hilt of her sword and stood up to stop them, but found that the Honkai Beasts had no intention of attacking them at all.

The enormous body came before the Herrscher, raised its inorganic arm, and brought it down heavily.

As a servant of the Honkai, how dare it attack a Herrscher?

Its plan quickly fell through.

The next moment, several wind blades sliced ​​the massive Honkai Emperor into pieces.

Wendy's eyes were lifeless, and everyone dared not relax, ready to fight at any moment.

"Lord Yulandel?"

Rita was puzzled and hoped the other person could rest a little longer.

Durandal picked up the Black Abyss White Flower, saying that the minor injury was nothing to worry about.

The opponent seems to have had their strength greatly reduced by something, and now is the perfect opportunity.

The power of the Abyss was released, and all the flowers and plants along the way withered, withering away from Wendy's direction.

“…”

Wendy snapped her fingers.

The gentle drizzle turned into a curtain of water, obscuring the black abyss and white flowers.

"So fast...!?"

Durandal exclaimed in surprise, not expecting the newly born Herrscher to master her powers so quickly.

She knew very well that this move was no small matter.

However, it was easily defended against. I have to say, it's no wonder it's a Herrscher.

A powerful opponent was right in front of her. She hadn't encountered such a worthy opponent in a long time, and her fighting spirit surged.

Holding her lance, Durandal prepared to launch her next attack, but Wendy shook her head.

"Your opponent is not me, but the true Honkai."

The girl's voice had a hint of warmth compared to before.

"Wait, you're not a Herrscher?"

"It took quite a bit of effort to get it right."

Ziyao is now in a dominant position.

A Herrscher's body is not easy to control, and there is always a risk of being squeezed out.

Mobilizing her power, Ziyao attempted to peel away the gem of desire.

Its power was connected to Wendy's, and thankfully it didn't completely dissolve, otherwise it would have been troublesome.

Wendy is unable to resist the Honkai's will and therefore cannot detach herself on her own; she needs a little help.

"..."

Durandal watched curiously as the other party began to actively remove the gemstone.

Correspondingly, the powers of the Lawyers are constantly collapsing and decreasing.

This was not without cost. In fact, after losing Karen, Ziyao directly used the initial doll as a vessel to bear the consequences.

If we have to explain the principle behind it, it should be similar to a body double?

As her mental energy gradually depleted, Ziyao could no longer hold on.

Seeing this, Durandal used the Black Abyss White Flower to help, and the warm trickle gradually replenished her rapidly depleting mental energy.

Before running out of energy, Ziyao successfully retrieved the Desire Gem.

At the same time, she returned to her own body.

The pain still lingered in her chest. She took the gem from Wendy's hand, and the girl leaned into her arms.

With the crisis averted, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Without a doubt, it was this doctor who saved them.

However, Theresa's brow remained furrowed.

While they were relieved that Wendy was alright, now it was their turn to be in trouble—

"Ta-ta-ta..."

The masked troops surrounded the area, and the Honkai Beasts on the outskirts were wiped out.
