What?! You want me to be the Herrscher of the End?!

This can be seen from the moment the other party appeared and their reaction after seeing Kiana's injury, as well as the photo of Siegfried that they specially brought for Kiana. This level of meticulous care is far beyond what a friend who has only known each other for less than a week would do.

Furthermore, the opponent held back during the battle. From beginning to end, although the battle was very intense, none of them actually suffered any serious injuries, at most just superficial wounds.

This approach made it seem as if the other party had been letting them win, and the battle was just a formality. After all, Theresa herself couldn't believe that a Herrscher with the Judgment of Heavenly Fire could fight them to a standstill. Please, if it were someone else, they would have been dead long ago.

Therefore, based on this, considering the time of Bai Mo's disappearance, and then the appearance of Asura, who concealed her identity and contacted Kiana and the others, Theresa made this bold guess.

Of course, the most important point is the Herrscher power that the opponent just used, in addition to the Herrscher of the Void power, there was also that strange black mist and the white light that could heal injuries.

These symbols are very similar to the powers of the Herrscher of Death. According to Theresa's investigation over the years, she learned that Bai Mo's last mission before his disappearance was to find the Tranquil Gem, the core of the Herrscher of Death that Schicksal had lost. After that mission, Bai Mo disappeared, and the Tranquil Gem also disappeared without a trace.

Now that these factors have come together again, Theresa feels as if she has grasped something.

After all, she couldn't believe that someone who knew them so well and took care of them in every way would suddenly appear out of nowhere.

"Bai Mo... Asura, if you really are her, then why did you join World Serpent? Is the implementation of the Stigmata Project also what you wanted? Or is there some unspeakable reason behind it?"

The figure in the distance gradually overlapped with the memories in her mind. Theresa looked at it with complicated eyes and silently murmured to herself.

On the other side, Bai Mo felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were being watched, making him extremely uncomfortable.

"Honestly, who's been talking about me behind my back again?"

After dealing with the last Quantum Eye that emerged from the crack, Bai Mo looked at the corpses scattered all over the ground and couldn't help but wipe his sweat and complain.

"It must be really tough being both a father and a mother to me every day. Sooner or later, I'll have to make them make it up to me."

Bai Mo glanced furtively at Kiana and the others, and felt a warm feeling in his heart.

It feels really nice to be able to watch them like this all the time.

Chapter 229 Car Crash

boom!

"what happened?"

"The noise is coming from the crack!"

A sudden explosion came from the crack, startling everyone present. Immediately afterward, an extremely powerful wave of Honkai energy spread outward.

Bai Mo, who was closest to the crack, was directly blasted away, as was Gretchen beside her, but Bai Mo still shielded Gretchen from most of the impact.

"Damn it, a sneak attack! Walter, you couldn't beat Kevin, so you resorted to self-destruction!!! Even Joyce would cry if she saw this!"

Sensing the Herrscher aura contained in this fluctuation, Bai Mo guessed that Welt must have been pushed to the limit by Kevin and secretly complained to himself.

With a roll, it fell to the ground, dissipating most of the force, but the Evil Dragon still reached its limit under this attack.

A phantom page appeared, flipping rapidly before closing. Then, the Evil Dragon on Bai Mo's body automatically disintegrated, revealing her original appearance.

Feeling a sudden loosening on his face, as if something was about to fall off, Bai Mo instinctively and quickly caught his face and the mask that was about to shatter in two.

"This quality is definitely worthy of a street vendor's goods."

Although he said it, Bai Mo was also heartbroken. After all, this was the first gift Gretsch had given him, and it had broken just like that.

That damned Walter! I'll never forgive him!!!

Carefully getting up, Bai Mo immediately checked Gretchen's body and was relieved to find no injuries.

Greta was clearly still immersed in the scene of Bai Mo shielding her from harm, and hadn't quite recovered yet.

"I'm sorry, Asura-neechan..."

A few seconds later, Greta, who had come to her senses, grabbed Bai Mo and hugged him tightly, burying her head in her arms and saying with great remorse.

After all, if it weren't for me, Asura wouldn't have gotten hurt.

Gretsch thought to herself, it seemed that the scene of the Evil Dragon being attacked and disintegrated had still frightened her.

"Okay, sweetie, I'm perfectly fine, don't worry."

Bai Mo gently patted Gretchen's head and said softly.

The latter looked up and saw that Bai Mo's relaxed expression didn't seem to be faking it, so he felt relieved.

At the same time, Theresa and the others, who had heard the news, also arrived not far from Bai Mo.

Both sides maintained a relatively safe distance.

But compared to before, Bai Mo wondered if it was just her imagination, because she felt that Theresa's gaze towards her seemed very strange now.

Kiana and the others were less hostile towards him, but they remained wary.

She could understand the latter, since there were personal feelings involved, but what was wrong with Theresa?!

Had I been exposed? But my hand was still holding the mask, and it hadn't fallen off.

Bai Mo's eyes shifted from panic to composure, but Theresa saw all of this and her suspicions became true once again.

"So, the way you were before March was also a lie to us, right?"

Seeing Bai Mo's careful act of protecting his mask, even Kiana, with her thick skin, could guess that Bai Mo had been hiding something when he first approached them.

After all, if names can be faked, isn't appearance just as easy to fake?

Moreover, the face couldn't be matched at St. Freya Academy at all, and all three of them suddenly understood.

But they didn't blame each other much, after all, everyone has their own secrets, and they should respect each other.

But this put Bai Mo in a difficult position. After all, she didn't expect to make a mistake here, and she was speechless for a moment. Bai Mo could only nod and pretend to agree.

"So what."

"Words are useless. If you want to stop me, then come on."

Not wanting to linger any longer, he slashed with the Heavenly Fire in his hand, creating sparks on the ground and etching a crescent moon mark to separate the two sides, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Those who cross this line will bear the consequences themselves.

Upon seeing this, everyone instinctively took a step back.

"Asura, can you tell me why you're so obsessed with the Stigmata Project?"

The speaker was Theresa, because after confirming Bai Mo's identity, she was even more eager to understand why Bai Mo did what he did.

After all, in her eyes, Bai Mo was never someone who treated human life as worthless.

"I don't want to repeat myself. Think what you want. We just need Kevin."

But Bai Mo clearly had no intention of explaining, after all, how could she possibly know what Theresa was thinking right now?

"Gresh, stop them for me."

Reluctantly, not wanting to risk exposing his identity any longer, and considering that Gretchen's strength was enough to hold off the crowd, Bai Mo left without looking back and ran towards the rift.

The sooner we finish, the sooner we can call it a day. Walter risked his life to self-destruct, which means Kevin's task is nearing its end. It's just the right time for me to rush over and wrap things up.

Moreover, from the very beginning of their conversation, Einstein and Tesla had been making underhanded moves, their aim being nothing more than to control the Eye of the Abyss to close the rift. If they hadn't spoken up, people would have thought they were blind and couldn't see it.

"Oh no! Stop her! It will take some time to close the rift!"

Seeing that his plan had been exposed, Einstein immediately spoke up and called on everyone to take action.

Now, no matter how mixed the feelings were, everyone present had no choice but to pick up their weapons and take action.

The golden spear transformed into binding chains and shot out from Judah.

Theresa took the lead and in the blink of an eye, she had already passed Gretchen and was chasing after Bai Mo. Mei followed closely behind, her body transforming into a bolt of lightning, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air.

The rest of the group scattered, clearly intending to distract Gretsch.

"Mr. Knight".

But Gretsch knew exactly what everyone was thinking. After she finished speaking, streaks of multicolored light appeared in the air. Gretsch waved her paintbrush and sealed the place with a barrier. Several enormous figures appeared out of thin air and surrounded everyone.

boom! boom! boom!

Judah's chains struck the barrier, but ultimately failed to break through its defenses.

"Damn it, it was so close!"

Watching Bai Mo's departing figure, Theresa hesitated before speaking, her expression complex.

Meanwhile, Bai Mo also managed to enter the crack before it closed.

Chapter 230 Meeting

...............

quantum sea

The azure sky stretched endlessly, with a few remaining bubbles of the world floating in mid-air, just like a real ocean. Bai Mo was also greatly amazed when he first came here.

If she didn't have something important to do right now, she really wanted to explore those world bubbles, and maybe even visit a previous civilization.

Shaking his head to dismiss this unrealistic idea, Bai Mo began to move according to the coordinates sent by Kevin.

Before long, Bai Mo spotted Kevin's figure in the distance.

Upon closer inspection, one can see that Kevin is holding a Herrscher Core in each hand, a truly awe-inspiring scene.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you messed up, didn't you? Your license's been revoked, Walter, you deserve it!!"

Seeing this, Bai Mo was secretly delighted, thinking that Kevin was quite sensible, and this could be considered revenge for him in the dark!

"Well, Kevin, this should be considered our first official meeting, right?"

Looking at the cold, aloof young man in front of him, Bai Mo was not afraid of the chill emanating from him at all, and immediately reached out his hand.

"Yes, on behalf of the Firemoth and the World Serpent, I thank you."

Kevin, without hesitation, also extended his hand, and the two shook hands amicably.

Thus, the strongest warrior of the previous civilization, who had reduced the End to standby mode, officially met—or rather, had a meeting—with the Herrscher of the End from the Quantum Sea and this era.

"Oh, Your Majesty, why do you do this? You flatter me so much."

For some reason, after seeing that Kevin wasn't as obsessed as he remembered, Bai Mo jokingly remarked.

He took off the mask that had been broken in two and used it as a fan, fanning himself twice.

I was actually quite happy to be mischievous.
