A person in Honkai Impact, just became a Decade Knight

If she can capture these three people here, she will surely be able to break free from this half-real, half-fake state and evolve into the 'real thing'.

"Yuno can't lose... No, Yuno won't lose!"

Just before the light bullet was about to hit her body, Yuno conjured dozens of vines, which directly pulled her away from her original position by a little distance.

Then, she looked down at Gu Yu, who was breaking through the petrified vines, and let out a disdainful sneer.

"You actually ran out of that cage on your own... You're really not smart."

"Really? In my opinion, the one who isn't smart is you, you imposter."

After snapping his fingers lightly, Gu Yu uttered a single word indifferently.

"climb."

In that instant, Yuno suddenly felt a sharp pain in her back.

"What...what's wrong with you?!"

Yuno, whose body was almost pierced through, felt dozens... no, nearly a hundred attacks raining down on her back.

She immediately realized that these were bullets just fired by the enemy.

But something's not right.

She clearly dodged those bullets!

Among the light bullets fired from the Awakening Gun, Gu Yu imbued with the abilities of three undead.

Firstly, the [Attack and Control Bullets] skill, which incorporates the [2 Armadillo Undead] ability, enhances the power of the light bullets fired by the Awakening Gun.

Secondly, the [Swift Attack] ability, combined with the [4 Woodpecker Undead] ability, enhances the rapid-fire performance of the Awakening Gun.

After using these two cards to increase the bullet's firing rate and power, Gu Yu used the last Undead card.

And this last Undead card, [Attack, Control, Thorough Investigation], is equipped with [?8 Bat Undead's Ability] - Chasing Shot.

Gu Yu never intended to shoot the girl in front of him to death with this burst of fire. In fact, if the pseudo-Herrscher could be hit by this kind of attack, he wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble in the first place.

Yuno's action of dodging the first shot was entirely within his calculations.

The real killer move is the follow-up shot after dodging this direct hit.

Even though Yuno has obtained the power of a pseudo-Herrscher, she is still just a girl who has only had the power for less than 24 hours.

Having absolutely no combat experience, she never expected that the man in front of her would use such a trick to scheme against her.

Because there were no vines covering Yuno's back, the bullets easily hit her directly.

Even more embarrassingly, due to the sudden attack of the bullet, Yuno was not only stunned by the attack, but was also knocked off the vine by Kouyu.

【AttackRide Upper (Attack Ride Arm Strength Enhancement)】

【AttackRide Fire (Fire Attribute Enhancement)】

On the petrified vines, Gu Yu pushed off with all her might and shot towards Yuno like a cannonball.

With the enhancement of the two cards, a blazing flame suddenly ignited on Gu Yu's right fist.

"You bastard, you actually resorted to underhanded tactics!"

Upon seeing the armored man in front of her, Yuno, who had been tricked, immediately unleashed a burst of Honkai energy.

Even if she were stupid, she would know that if she were hit by the man's right fist, which was burning with flames, she would probably be knocked out on the spot.

She had only possessed this immense power for a day, and she hadn't yet enjoyed the exhilarating feeling of becoming a powerful being.

She didn't want to turn back into that incredibly weak version of herself!

Fueled by a do-or-die mentality, more than a dozen vines covered in Herrscher poison materialized around Yuno.

"Die! You must die!"

【AttackRide Gemini】

As these vines attacked Gu Yu, Gu Yu threw the pre-prepared back-hand card into the driver.

"Forget it, with such a simple attack method, it's a bit difficult to kill me."

Just as the vines were about to pierce Gu Yu, the zebra undead emblem attached to Gu Yu's body came into play.

[Attack and Control of Clone], sealing the ability of [?9 Zebra Undead] - clone.

Gu Yu, who used the clone to move his body halfway away, watched as his clone was instantly shattered into a blur by the attack.

Although he only managed to gain a fleeting moment of space using this ability.

But at this distance, this gap is enough for him to decide the winner!

"The warm-up is almost over. Let's finish this fight with this punch."

Seeing the utterly terrified expression on Yuno's face, Gu Yu couldn't believe that the girl in front of him was actually a pseudo-Herrscher.

"Fire Upper!"

However, in the end, he still chose to mercilessly swing his iron fist.

He knew very well that he would deal with the rest later.

He is currently fighting his opponent on the battlefield, and he has neither the right nor the ability to hold back in this kind of battle.

"Bah!"

After landing a punch on Yuno's cheek, Kouyu turned around and slammed Yuno directly into the ground.

Using the force of gravity, he punched Yuno directly from mid-air onto the ground.

After the attack, countless cracks appeared on the ground, centered on Yuno's convulsing body.

"Phew, battle over... Huh?!"

However, after landing, Gu Yu suddenly looked at her right hand.

"This is?!"

After defeating Yuno, Kouyu felt an intense, throbbing pain in her right hand.

At the same time, he also saw the Honkai energy within Yuno's body begin to scatter in all directions after Yuno lost consciousness—then, as if finding a home, this Honkai energy surged wildly towards Kouyu's right hand.

"I wipe?"

Feeling the throbbing pain in her right hand, Gu Yu immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Oh no, it seems like we've really messed up this time."

PS1: I'm really sorry for the long delay in updating, but I have my reasons.

My computer got a bunch of malware popping up, I didn't mean to...

PS2: Only two updates today, November 26th... You expect me to write fifteen chapters in three days??

That guy from last weekend, can you just die already?! (Image)

PS3: As usual, I'm asking for votes, you know what I mean.

Chapter 24.5. Clarification Chapter (Contains a short essay of 800 words)

[This chapter is not counted in the number of chapters owed in the main story.]

Here are some brief replies to the questions raised in the interlude.

First, there's the issue of the area of ​​Changkong City...

I'm sorry, I made a mistake. I actually used the local area to apply to Changkong City, completely forgetting that Changkong City is located in the far east, a very crowded place.

This is a matter of habitual thinking; living in such a vast country, one naturally feels that the area should be this large.

There's not much to say. I made a mistake regarding the area; I'll admit my mistake and take the blame.

Then there's the part about Yuno's inner thoughts, where she mentions that "with the enhancement of the Herrscher's power, she can easily defeat not only those assassins, but even Honkai Beasts." She seems to think that defeating Honkai Beasts and assassins is nothing special.

Your thinking is correct, and I think so too.

However, Yuno is a pseudo-Herrscher who was forced to appear only after the Third Honkai Impact was forcibly ended.

This kid isn't a normal Herrscher; in her eyes, zombies and Honkai Beasts are strong enough.

Having just obtained the power of the Herrscher, she felt inflated by defeating these two monsters, which is why she dared to be so bold as to cause trouble for the protagonist and his group.

This passage was meant to convey that the silly roe deer had become arrogant, that's what I meant, but I guess it was written too subtly. I'm really sorry, I'll try to be clearer next time.

Then there's the question of how the protagonist addresses the female characters.

Why use surnames to address each other? — That's how it's common in the Far East; the protagonist calls them by their first names after knowing them for less than 24 hours…

Well, I believe anyone who has followed the latest chapters can tell that Gu Yu is a lot of rambling thoughts and is clearly a brooding person.

Expecting a dull, straight man to quickly become familiar with a girl and start calling her by name is a bit difficult.

Don't underestimate single people, Kora!

Finally, there's the question about the initial battle against Raiden Mei.

Why not use Kabuto?

Okay, since some readers are so eager to see the protagonist use Kabuto against the Herrscher of Thunder, I'll write a short paragraph.

The following content is not included in the official history of this book.

--------

"This is a terrible headache, it's driving me crazy!"

"Putting me up against an enemy of the Herrscher level right off the bat? What kind of idiot wrote this script?!"

Looking at the girl in front of him who was emitting an electromagnetic field, Gu Yu drew a card.

"Deal with this guy..."

【KamenRide Kabuto】
