A person in Honkai Impact, just became a Decade Knight

PS2: I suggest you go to sleep, because I'm experiencing writer's block. The plot I had planned is currently impossible to write out because my mind is a complete mess, so I've decided to go to sleep first.

PS3: If anyone still tries to defend Shirakura and Inoue Toshiki this time, I really think they should see a doctor.

One person dared to write the script, and the other dared to approve it. Putting aside the disastrous fight choreography [and even Zhu Tianmin has to take the blame], this script is truly...

That's awesome!

Chapter 445. Player Exchange

"If I were to face him, I would most likely die at his hands. Of course I know that."

As Yae Sakura strolled toward the evil god XIV, she let out a soft sigh.

“But I am currently the strongest person here. If I retreat here, then Mr. Gu Yu will surely die at the hands of the other party.”

"I owe Mr. Gu Yu a favor that I can never repay. Now that Mr. Gu Yu needs me, then I..."

"We must risk everything here to protect Mr. Gu Yu!"

"elder sister!"

Seeing Yae Sakura leap lightly and move quickly using the nearby trees, Yae Rin immediately tried to rush out and catch up with her.

But the next moment, Seele's pupils suddenly turned red, and she pulled Yae Rin's body back.

"Little girl, going there at this time, do you want to die!"

"If you want to drag your sister down, now's the time to boldly go over there. If she gets distracted because of you, both of you sisters will be doomed!"

After hugging Yae Rin tightly, Kurohime immediately whispered coldly in Yae Rin's ear.

Do you want her to die because of you?

"I hope she dies because of you, without ever finding happiness?"

Bronya frowned slightly as she listened to Black Seele's incredibly cold words.

Although rationally speaking, she had to admit that there was nothing wrong with what Seele said.

But...

Seele, when did you develop this personality?

Something's not right. Seele is acting very strangely these days.

If the situation weren't so critical, she would definitely have a serious talk with Xier and get to the bottom of things.

“Rin, Seele is right. Sakura-nee certainly wouldn’t want you to stay in such a dangerous place.”

"Rin, I understand..."

After saying those words in a low mood, Yae Rin watched as Seele carried Mei on her back, but she still couldn't take her eyes off Yae Rin.

At this moment, Yae Rin, who was already close to the size of the Evil God XIV, looked incredibly small compared to the enormous size of the Evil God XIV.

So insignificant that it seemed as if the opponent could send Yae Sakura flying with a single blow.

"Tch, this is such a hassle."

Seeing that Yae Rin still had no intention of leaving, Black Seele clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction, walked over to Yae Rin, and gently tapped the back of her head with a chop to the head.

Before Yae Rin could react to her controlled strike, she collapsed to the ground.

After finishing all this, Black Seele tucked Yae Rin and Mei under her arms and said to Bronya.

"Big sister, let's retreat quickly. If that big monster catches up with us, we and Senior Gu Yu will all die here."

"Bronya, I understand."

Seeing Black Seele's clean and efficient movements, Bronya became certain that Seele was hiding some secrets that she didn't know about.

No, the girl in front of me looks exactly like Seele...

Is she really still her close friend?

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

On the sealed stone tablet, Theresa, Lynn, and Yuno stared at the cards on the tablet, lost in thought.

Upon arriving at the stone slab, Theresa saw Kiana sealed within it and realized that her guess was correct.

But looking at this stone slab, Theresa always felt...

"Yuno, summon your Honkai energy vines and go check the situation."

"Understood, Dean."

After summoning a vine, Yuno manipulated it to pierce the stone slab.

But just before the vines were about to pierce the stone slab, a sudden surge of energy erupted around the slab, blocking the vines.

Not only that, the blocked vines seemed to have been drained, turning to ashes on the spot in front of the three people.

"Energy absorption? Honkai energy suppression? Or rather..."

Looking at the end of the vines, Lin frowned and began to think...

During her conversations with Wendy, she learned a lot about those scenes that often appeared in Far Eastern comics from Wendy.

In scenarios like this, where an innocent girl is kidnapped and then sacrificed, there is a high probability that the girl will lose her life.

And the surrounding barrier... is it used to plunder life?!

"Hmph, a barrier? Interesting."

After slamming Judas to the ground, Theresa walked toward the barrier with a cold smile.

"Professor Theresa! No! This barrier is too dangerous!"

"Even if it's dangerous, I'm going to do it. There's no time for us to dawdle now."

After touching the barrier with her fingertips, Theresa felt the wave descend upon her.

"Hmm, if I'm not mistaken, it's a barrier that absorbs life."

Although Theresa maintained a calm and composed expression, as a Valkyrie wielding the power of the Herrscher of Death, Lynn knew very well that having one's life force stripped away could not possibly be something to be taken lightly.

"Don't worry, I think I've figured out a solution. I have Honkai Beast factors in my body, and I also have the bloodline of the Kaslana clan. If we're talking purely about vitality, my vitality is much stronger than Kiana's."

The problem is, this barrier... its aftereffects are really quite strong.

"Now, you two will follow my orders."

After feeling the weakness emanating from her body and walking into the barrier, Theresa looked at the girl in the card and affixed the card to her body.

"I'll throw this card out later. If nothing unexpected happens, Kiana's card shouldn't have its life force drained after it leaves this place."

"In return, I will become a living sacrifice in her place. After that, our opportunity will come."

"Chance?!"

I can't understand it. If that's all there is to it, then it's just a matter of replacing Kiana with the headmaster as the sacrifice.

Even if the academy head has stronger vitality, it's only a matter of time before his life force is drained.

Wait, could it be that...!

"Alright, you two, step back a bit."

After quickly throwing Kiana's card, Theresa watched as Yuno caught it and immediately raised her right hand.

"Judas!"

"Divine Grace Barrier, deploy!"

Under Theresa's manipulation, the Oath of Judah created a small barrier around the stone tablet.

As a pseudo-Herrscher who had already condensed a pseudo-Herrscher core, Yuno immediately sensed through the Herrscher core within her body that all the energy inside the Divine Grace Barrier was being suppressed.

However, as a pseudo-Herrscher who had been suppressed by the Divine Grace Barrier, how could she not know the power of the Divine Grace Barrier?

Theresa has Honkai Beast genes within her, which are the very things that the Divine Grace Barrier is most effective against...

—That just happens to be Honkai Beasts and Honkai Energy!

Chapter 446. Piecing Together Broken Sounds

"Okay, that's fine for now."

After enveloping the entire stone slab with a divine barrier, Theresa endured the intense pain surging through her body and spoke with utmost composure.

"That guy is trying to perform a ritual by extracting the life force of other people. And the most crucial part of this ritual is probably human sacrifice."

"After all, in order to take Kiana away, he was even willing to give up the best opportunity to kill Gu Yu. Heh, he was too hasty and revealed something crucial."

"But now, after suppressing the surrounding energy activity with the divine grace barrier, even if my life force is absorbed, it cannot be fully converted into the energy needed for the ritual."

Hearing the furious roar of the enormous monster in the distance, Theresa continued.

"See, this trick works really well, doesn't it?"

"As expected of Teacher Theresa!"

Hearing those angry roars, Lin was certain that this move had indeed worked.

That monster was indeed weakened by Theresa's move.

"But……"

"Rin, you take Kiana and hide first. Leave this to me and Yuno."

"I see!"

After picking up Kiana, who had returned to reality from the card, Lin immediately sped away from the barrier.

After Lin left, Theresa finally couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on her forehead.

"As expected, Dean... you can't hold on like this for long!"

Yuno, who had once been suppressed by the Divine Grace Barrier, had been guessing from the very beginning that Theresa was actually just forcibly holding on and not collapsing.

She herself took Kiana's place while her life force was drained, and at the same time, her body was constantly being damaged by the divine grace barrier.
