A person in Honkai Impact, just became a Decade Knight

Seeing Kevin, who was almost unconscious, Gu Yu concentrated his power in his right fist and punched Kevin's head.

"God Omega Drive Mugen!"

The light that dispelled evil rushed towards Kevin's body at that moment, but...

Just before the punch, brimming with immense energy, was about to strike Kevin, Gu Yu saw Kevin's body suddenly vanish.

"……what?"

Gu Yu was stunned as she stared at the empty ground in front of her.

Wow, seriously? I knocked him out, and he still managed to activate the quantum teleportation device unconsciously?!

Holy crap, this system's practically become sentient! It can even automatically protect its owner?!

"Sigh... Kevin..."

After hearing Gu Yu's roar, Su slowly opened her eyes.

As a close friend, he chose not to intervene when Kevin was being beaten, which Sue considered a grave offense.

At least in this final moment, he should have used his own eyes to witness the end of his dearest friend's descent into madness...

The question is, what about Kevin?

"Mr. Gu Yu, your attack has already reduced a person to particles?!"

Looking at the two Divine Keys on the ground and Gu Yu standing there, Su, who had not found any trace of Kevin, looked at Gu Yu with a face full of grief and said.

"Sigh...I originally wanted to..."

"Don't think about it, Kevin isn't dead."

After angrily deactivated his transformation, Gu Yu looked at the Destruction and Void Treasury on the ground and said irritably.

"Truly worthy of being the strongest fusion warrior of the previous era, he's also top among fusion warriors when it comes to running away."

"Well, we've achieved our goal this time. Void Treasury and Heavenly Fire Judgment... Oh well, having them is better than not having them."

After drawing two cards from the card box, Gu Yu flicked the cards in his hand, sealing the two Divine Keys into them.

"That bastard Cocolia... Thanks to that traitor Anti-Entropy, even the people of World Serpent can use the quantum teleportation system now."

"When I get back, I need to have a good talk with Dr. Einstein and Dr. Tesla to see if they have figured out a way to interrupt the quantum teleportation system."

"Otherwise, when he encounters Kevin next time, he'll probably just use the quantum teleportation device to run away again."

After saying these words, Gu Yu looked at Su beside her.

“Mr. Su, I didn’t have time to talk about this earlier. But I think it would be better if we clarified things now.”

"Mr. Gu Yu, there's no need for further words."

At that moment, Su looked at Gu Yu's displeased eyes and said helplessly.

"Kevin has gone down the wrong path, and if he insists on continuing down this path, I will naturally not help him. As for the matter between Mr. Gu Yu and Kevin..."

"Don't worry, I won't interfere."

Chapter 579. An Unforgivable Sin

World Snake Base

Inside the World Serpent Base headquarters, Gray Serpent anxiously stared at the empty ground, waiting impatiently.

Kevin's meeting with Otto wasn't without a backup plan; at least, his most trusted subordinate, Gray Serpent, knew about it.

Both Kevin and Grey Snake knew that Otto was not an easy person to get along with.

When he approaches you with a smile, ready to become your sworn brother, that's when he's at his most dangerous.

However, neither Gray Serpent nor Kevin expected that the person who would cause trouble this time was not Otto, but someone else.

As Gray Snake stared at the footage from the surveillance camera Kevin was wearing, he was shocked to see a face he least wanted to see.

"Gu Yu...why is this brat here?!"

Upon seeing Gu Yu's face, Gray Snake felt a sudden pang in his heart.

In this era, Kevin Kaslana, the Lord of the World Serpent, has virtually no rivals.

However, Gu Yu, who appeared at the scene at this moment, was able to completely overwhelm Kevin in terms of personal combat power.

Even though Kevin had obtained the first divine key, Void Treasury, from Otto, Grey Serpent still didn't think Kevin had a good chance of winning.

It's not that he doesn't respect his boss, it's just that...

—After considering the scene of Kevin's defeat last time and simulating the scene after their battle, the rational Gray Serpent felt that it was better for Kevin not to take any risks.

After defeating Gu Yu, Kevin will definitely be seriously injured.

Otto, who noticed this, would definitely not let this opportunity pass. He would definitely take advantage of Kevin's serious injury and the World Serpent's weakened state to wipe out the entire World Serpent in one fell swoop.

After all, Kevin had already handed the beacon over to Otto, so how could he possibly leave the World Serpent, such a major threat, behind after obtaining the beacon he wanted most?

Moreover, this is based on the premise that Kevin defeats Gu Yu, which is a very slim probability no matter how you look at it.

In Gray Serpent's view, after Gu Yu and Kevin fight, there is a greater probability that his boss will be beaten up and, barely alive, will use the quantum teleportation device to return to the World Serpent base.

Gray Snake really wanted to contact Kevin and persuade him to retreat first, but after Gu Yu appeared, Kevin decisively ignored Gray Snake's attempts to contact him.

After all, Gu Yu was an enemy that Kevin had to fight with all his might, so Kevin naturally had no time to pay attention to the communications sent by Gray Serpent.

In the ensuing battle, Gray Serpent unsurprisingly witnessed the scene he had anticipated but did not wish to see.

His lord... unsurprisingly, was tricked by Gu Yu.

Yes.

In the eyes of the gray snake, this was not an equal battle.

After observing the battle from a rational perspective as an outsider, Gray Serpent came to a conclusion.

Gu Yu wasn't seriously fighting Kevin at all.

His moves and skills, if combined slightly, could create even greater destructive power, but he deliberately didn't do so.

In contrast, Kevin used every trick in the book, employed two Divine Keys, and calculated every possible factor, but what did he ultimately gain?

He was beaten up.

If Gray Serpent hadn't forcibly activated Kevin's quantum teleportation system at the most crucial moment, pulling him back to World Serpent's base, Gray Serpent felt he would probably be singing a lament for his boss right now.

"My Lord...sigh..."

Seeing Kevin lying unconscious on the ground, Gray Snake, who had already instructed the jackals to prepare medical equipment, shook his head helplessly as the black mechs carried Kevin away.

"Grey Snake, what on earth happened?!"

Upon hearing the alarm sounding inside the base, the ravens from other parts of the base immediately rushed to the location of the gray snake and happened to see Kevin being carried out by the mechs.

"Lord... what happened to the Lord?!"

"Your Excellency... has been injured by Gu Yu."

Looking at the utterly astonished raven, the gray snake spoke to it in a sinister tone.

"Gu Yu has now undoubtedly become the greatest threat to our world snakes."

"Now that the Lord has been defeated by him twice, it means we can no longer defeat him head-on. Raven, the organization needs you to take action."

Hmph, is this woman's current expression genuine?

Or is it an act?

Seeing the raven's eyes flash with a hint of struggle, Gray Snake instantly felt that he had found the answer he wanted.

Raven is no longer the cold-blooded elite mercenary she once was.

At least in handling matters related to Gu Yu, she cannot be completely loyal to World Serpent.

Moreover, the biggest reason why the Venerable Lord lost to Gu Yu this time was that the location of his transaction with Otto was exposed.

Although only Graysnake, Otto, and Kevin knew about this location, Graysnake couldn't guarantee that there weren't other traitors in the base who might have obtained this information through other means beforehand.

Gray Serpent is an intelligence expert, but precisely because he is an expert, he doesn't underestimate himself by thinking that his intelligence network and firewall can withstand all hacker attacks.

Last time, when the Valkyries of Destiny launched a surprise attack on other World Serpent bases, Bronya Zaychek, a young girl, forcibly broke through the firewall left by Grey Serpent.

This time, in order to replenish its manpower, World Serpent specially promoted a cadre from the grassroots level, [Night Snack], who is skilled in intelligence and information support.

If this man and the raven are in league with each other to rebel, then the raven is more likely to obtain intelligence.

Considering the circumstances surrounding Gu Yu's sudden appearance there...

Hmph, let me find an opportunity to test whether these two guys have truly betrayed the Lord.

"Do I need to take action? How can I take action?"

After forcing himself to calm down, Raven coldly addressed Gray Snake.

"Even a warrior as powerful as the Lord couldn't defeat Gu Yu. Do you think I, with my meager abilities, could possibly take down Gu Yu?"

"Ha, that's not how it works. Siola, don't forget how I trained you."

After calling out the name he never usually uttered, the gray snake walked to the raven's side and gently patted her shoulder.

"There are many ways for mercenaries to complete their missions. Relying on violence to complete missions is ultimately not the best strategy."

"Your relationship with Gu Yu is quite close; this is the best starting point. Find a time to invite him out, and then..."

At that moment, Gray Serpent's tone suddenly turned icy cold.

"—Whether it's poisoning, ambush, or whatever method you use, kill him!"

After making a sharp, sweeping cut across his own neck, the gray snake spoke with a forceful tone.

"Don't forget who gave you everything you have now. Now, the organization needs you."

“I hope you haven’t forgotten that crucial matter, Ciora. For the members of our World Serpent…”

"—Betrayal [of the serpent] is the most unforgivable sin."
