I found a belt in the Honkai Impact 3rd world.

Not surprised at all. "Was it meddling...?" Mo Mo bent down, trying to stay at the same level as the little girl. 'I have a few questions for you.' The little girl neither agreed nor disagreed, but in Mo Mo's view, this was a sign of acquiescence. 'Do you know who you are?' She was silent, thought for a moment, and then shook her head, answering, 'No. Do you know where you are?'

"I don't know... Do you know where you're going?"... "I don't know... Do you know what you're doing right now?"... "I don't know." A barely perceptible look of pain appeared on her face. "Her Majesty the Queen said that as long as I move towards the human city, I don't need to worry about anything else. Admittedly, compared to her two companions who are also incomplete Herrschers, she doesn't need to expend any extra energy. Just continuously spreading death across this land is enough. It's quite 'Zen-like' in a way." [You won't get any information from her if she knows nothing.] The system sighed. [Get rid of her, Mo Zai...]

The life before her was incomplete. "Are you going to meddle?" she asked cautiously, her timid eyes glancing furtively at Mo Mo, seemingly testing his intentions. "…Mo Mo took a step forward. 'I'm sorry!'" The little girl quickly took a step back. "…Such a reaction is so hurtful. I'm sorry." Seeing Mo Mo fall silent, the little girl suddenly apologized nervously, "I'm sorry. Although it's a bit presumptuous, I still want to…" After hesitating for a long time, Mo Mo finally spoke, "Can you go back to the other side?" The little girl didn't seem to understand Mo Mo's meaning. "Simply put, I'm going to meddle," Mo Mo readily admitted, "I…won't let you continue to harm other towns."

The words had barely left his lips when the receding black mist surged forth once more, swallowing the already lukewarm sunlight once more. Even the little girl's figure vanished into the thick fog; it seemed there was no room for negotiation. "Lady Karen," Amber behind Mo Mo gripped her scythe tightly. She had every reason to intervene in this battle. "Don't interfere, Amber," Mo Mo said softly. A massive golden cross materialized from the void beside him, drawing Amber's attention. ... Silently gazing at the black mist not far before him, Mo Mo unleashed Judas and drew his spear. "It will end soon. I'm going in." Mo Mo took a deep breath.

Don't feel guilty; you know perfectly well they've been dead for a long time.

"You're just sending her where she's supposed to be." 1 Yes, they're already dead. Now they're just "walking corpses" who've gained power. 2 Now, they're to go where they're supposed to be. "Clang!" The crisp sound of chains clashing could be clearly heard in the quiet black mist. Mo Mo raised two spears, aiming at the approaching fog. She had already made up her mind to easily take Mo Mo's life. No need for unnecessary movements; a fragile human body couldn't withstand her power, she was absolutely confident of that. Without any resistance, the deep black mist completely "swallowed" the purple figure. "[Mo Zai, ten o'clock.]" [Understood.] The girl silently stared at the darkness before her until she saw a dazzling golden light that was gradually growing larger. Something was coming. There was no time to dodge.

The girl's eyes widened, her timid pupils gradually contracting, her throat bobbing but unable to utter another syllable. A golden spear pierced her slender neck, blooming into a vibrant flower of blood. *Thump*.

She fell backward, lying in the spreading pool of blood. She raised her hand to grab at the air, but could only helplessly fall back down. Her head lolled to the side, and her eyes lost all light.

He stepped forward and pulled the spear still lodged in her neck, crimson blood dripping from its sharp blade. "I'm sorry..." Mo Mo raised the spear again. *Thud.* The spearhead pierced the girl's chest without resistance, shattering anything hard in its path. "Mission complete, Lady Kallen." Amber had appeared behind Mo Mo at some point. "Lady Cecilia and Lady Cheng Lixue's team have also completed their mission, successfully eliminating the remaining two Herrschers. Apart from Lady Nicholas sustaining minor injuries, there were no other casualties... Please return to headquarters immediately."

"Understood." Witnessing the corpse before her gradually turn into... "Are you feeling sorrow, Lady Karen?" Amber stopped, waiting for Mo Mo who hadn't moved for a long time, and asked, "I don't understand. This is our great victory." "I'm not sorrowful," Mo Mo turned his head and replied softly, "Not at all. Just... feeling reluctant to part with what's lost, that's all."

57. Lady Cecilia's "head pat"

The triumphant return of all three expeditions to the floating islands is undoubtedly a cause for celebration, but now is not the time for such festivities. Although three vanguard figures from the opposing faction have been eliminated in one fell swoop, the instigator, the Herrscher of the Void who wields five Treasure 6s with the power of -2, is still watching the civilization on this planet with predatory eyes, ready to unleash divine punishment at any moment.

It was impossible to settle down and enjoy the joy of victory. The dawn of complete victory had not yet appeared; there was still a long way to go. Sitting on the edge of the top of the highest building, feeling the night breeze, he looked down at the night scene shimmering with lights. But this cool breeze could not dispel the distracting thoughts in Mo Mo's mind. [How pretentious, it really makes me want to vomit. 1 [Can't you just let me have some peace and quiet at a time like this? Aren't you annoying? ][ ⑧ Fine, I just can't stand your pretentious act. ][ Which eye of yours saw me faking it?] This persistent annoyance was genuine. Mo Mo sighed deeply. "It seems our heroine is troubled. There's no need to turn around; just by listening to the voice, one can tell who it is. "Lady Cecilia, how come you have time to come to the rooftop for some fresh air? You must be very busy right now, after all, you have meetings and such." "As a key figure at the post-war debriefing meeting, your presence here isn't exactly appropriate. His Holiness the Bishop seemed quite troubled just now." Cecilia couldn't help but chuckle. "You agree, Miss Karen." Cecilia... Mo Mo truly wished she could get as far away from such meetings as possible. "Just kidding, I also think His Holiness the Bishop went a bit too far this time..." Under Mo Mo's resentful gaze, Cecilia quickly changed her tone, "Miss Mo, is something on your mind? If you don't mind having another listener, you could tell me."

Her concerned tone, coupled with her drooping brows, perfectly conveyed Cecilia's thoughts. Come to think of it, could it be that Otto sent Cecilia to capture him? This thought suddenly flashed through Mo Mo's mind. But judging from the current situation, it didn't seem like it. Besides, he really needed someone to listen. "Hmm, since Lady Cecilia says so... cough cough." Mo Mo paused, coughed lightly, and then slowly began to speak. His flat voice quickly dissipated into the night wind. "So, you don't want to kill the Second Herrscher, right?" From the lengthy explanation that had been omitted, Cecilia extracted the most crucial information, a statement that at first glance seemed untrue. "She's not beyond redemption; I've always firmly believed that." "Mo Mo said firmly. Perhaps subconsciously, he believed Cecilia could understand his actions. Whether it was Walter, Otto, or anyone else he had heard of, they would ultimately see it as a fantasy. They couldn't gamble with it. But if it were her, she should be able to understand. "Her life shouldn't have been like this..." The night sky before him seemed to turn like a scroll painting, depicting that brief encounter in the Tower of Babel. Although it wasn't very beautiful. "I promised her that I would show her the outside world and try to make up for some of the beauty I had lost. It's just a pity that I was a little too late." Cecilia nodded thoughtfully, as if she had remembered something. "So, are you going to give up now?" "Give up? I don't want to." - Turning away from his previous hesitation, Mo Mo said stubbornly, but quickly softened, hugging his knees and murmuring softly, "I just sometimes doubt whether I made the right choice..." Mo Mo was very self-aware of his actions. It was like walking on a tightrope, with a precipice below.

A moment of recklessness would drag countless innocent lives down with him. Luckily, nothing has gone wrong so far. "But you still chose to do it." I had no choice, because I couldn't ignore her like that. Whether it was a momentary impulse or some other reason, no matter how many chances I gave Mo Mo, he would still choose this difficult path without hesitation. "What a good boy~" Cecilia suddenly reached out and placed her hand on Mo Mo's head, gently stroking it. "So good, so good."

"Lady Cecilia?" The sudden "surprise attack" froze Mo Mo for a moment. This was an experience he had never had before. Although it was a very unfamiliar feeling, it was surprisingly not repulsive. A head pat, so terrifying. "You've done very well." Cecilia continued, "If you hadn't informed the bishop of the Second Herrscher's plan beforehand, those three cities would have become disaster zones of utter devastation. If you hadn't risked your life to stop the Second Herrscher on the moon, the leader of Anti-Entropy and my man would not have been able to get away so easily... You've already saved so many people, haven't you? Why do you still doubt yourself? [Seriously, I don't know what's gotten into you all of a sudden, is it your period?] [Can't you say something nice?] The warm feeling that was gradually rising in Mo Mo's heart was frozen by the system's words. "As a reward, come here, let me pat your head~" "Lady Cecilia..." Mo Mo finally couldn't help but speak up, "Your behavior is very strange." "Really?" Cecilia continued what she was doing. "Hmm, if my daughter grows up to be this age, I feel like she'll look a lot like you."

Is this what they call a mother's intuition?

"If what you say is true, then that child is definitely waiting for you to save her. This is something only you can do." Cecilia's words carried a hint of empathy. "Something only I can do?"

“This is advice from someone who’s been there.” Smoothing her slightly messy hair, Cecilia patted Momo’s head with satisfaction. “Don’t keep her waiting too long.”

Tomorrow they're clearly gathering their forces to march to Siberia for the final battle. Well, everything's about to settle down. "Then I'd better go back and rest early." The warmth of the hand still lingered on her head, raising the temperature on her cheeks slightly. "Farewell, Lady Cecilia." Tonight didn't seem to be entirely fruitless. Smiling, she watched Mo Mo's figure disappear from the rooftop. A cool night breeze suddenly stirred something forgotten in Cecilia's mind. "Oh no! I've been out so long today, I need to hurry back and check on Kiana!"

[Are you feeling better now?] [Not really... I already said I was just asking a few questions.] [I know exactly what's going on, so stop pretending.]

Exhausted from running around, and bickering with the system, Mo Mo suddenly bumped into a familiar figure at a corner of the corridor.

[Hmm? Isn't this that Immortal Chi Yuan? It seems like he's been waiting for you for a long time?][Don't ask me, I don't know the answer. 1 "Please..." Mo Mo was about to ask what was going on when Chi Yuan spoke up. "No need for words, come and fight me."

58. When did you start to have the illusion that there was no Zhongyu Duchen?

"No need for words, come and fight me." Chi Yi stood with her hands behind her back and spoke calmly. But these calm words were like a thunderbolt. "Fight? Why?" Mo Mo took a step back. "Please don't joke like that. I have no reason to fight you. [Mo Zai, did you offend her somehow? Why did she suddenly come to fight you?] [I don't know either! Did she find out that I mentioned her tablet in my mind?] If so, her perception is too strong, isn't it? Besides, I was just telling the truth! Mo Mo, who had been tense, couldn't see a trace of joking on Chi Yi's face.

And she wasn't the type to make such pointless jokes. "The reason..." A slight ripple appeared in Chi Yuan's calm eyes. 'Then, what is your reason for being so fixated on the Second Herrscher?'

"???" Before Mo Mo could fully digest the profound meaning in Chi Yuan's words, the figure standing still in front of him had already turned into a blur.

Faced with this lightning-fast attack, Mo Mo's body reacted first, instinctively raising both hands to block the jab. The shockwave from the impact sent a few feathers fluttering down. Mo Mo countered with a palm strike, directly colliding with Chi Yuan's second punch, sending Chi Yuan staggering back several steps. "As expected of you." Chi Yuan shook her hands, her tone remaining flat. "I have no grudge against you, neither from the past nor the present." Mo Mo lowered her slightly shaken hands. "Don't go too far! This repeated, unwarranted provocation is enough to ignite your anger."

"Perhaps it's excessive," Chi Yuan didn't deny Mo Mo's statement. "However, I'm sorry, I won't let you participate in the campaign against the Second Herrscher." "Why? Wouldn't having me along increase our chances of winning?" Mo Mo asked, puzzled.

Faced with Mo Mo's question, Chi Ying simply responded with silence, followed by an even faster punch.

*Thump.* Deflecting the probing punch, Mo Mo was met with a torrent of fists. A continuous series of muffled thuds echoed in the narrow corridor. The two had exchanged dozens of blows, and Chi Yuan's attacks were finally blocked. *Thump!*

"Enough already!" Mo Mo's patience was gradually wearing thin. "Don't think I won't fight back!"

Mo Mo's final warning was met with a whip kick. He stumbled back two steps, and just as he regained his footing, Chi Yuan pressed her advantage, throwing a punch. The fierce punch abruptly froze at Mo Mo's chest, then unleashed incredible power. "Inch-Strike Mountain Tunnel!" Just as its name suggested, the heavy punch, capable of splitting rocks and shattering stones, mercilessly slammed into Mo Mo's chest. Even with Shi Gu supporting him, he was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground.

Withdrawing her fist, Chi Yuan silently watched Mo Mo brush off the dust from her clothes and get up from the ground. "Not effective enough?" She really thought she could end the battle so easily. No, she shouldn't underestimate her. "Don't underestimate me," Mo Mo said, slightly out of breath, seemingly unharmed. "If you want to stop me, this is far from enough."

"Although I don't know why, since you're going to make a move, I have no choice but to oblige." Suppressing the tremors within his body, Mo Mo didn't intend to continue taking the beating. Making trouble before a major battle wasn't the right thing to do, but clearly Chi Yi wasn't going to reason with Mo Mo. So, he could only resolve the conflict through physical means. Silently throwing off his coat, Chi Yi assumed a fighting stance for the first time.

In the silent, deserted corridor, this hand-to-hand combat had gone on for countless rounds, still without a clear victor. The once tidy corridor was now riddled with potholes and uneven surfaces, a testament to the damage. Dodging a crocodile's slashing hand, Chi Yuan launched a kick at the back of Mo Mo's head. The seemingly certain kick was blocked just as it was about to land, by a suddenly raised left hand, which then grabbed Mo Mo's ankle. "Sorry."

Grasping her slender ankle, Chi Yuan's slightly frail body was effortlessly lifted high by his unparalleled strength, and then he began to swing her. Up and down, left and right, forward and backward, her living body was now being swung around like an inanimate object. Using centrifugal force, Mo Mo tightened his grip on her ankle and slammed her head down onto the ground in front of him. "Bang!" After a loud crash, a shallow crater appeared in the smooth ground. Then, he slammed Chi Yuan against a wall in the distance. Her previously limp body regained its vitality in mid-air, and after a few somersaults, she pushed off the wall with both feet and flew towards Mo Mo again, throwing a punch. Mo Mo neither dodged nor evaded, returning a straight punch.

Chi Yuan's body flew backward, tumbling several times in the air before landing steadily on the ground. Mo Mo was panting heavily, not daring to relax even slightly. Chi Yuan was also panting heavily, her bent back gradually straightening, seemingly unharmed except for the loss of energy. "Even like this, she still wants to fight? She's really troublesome." Muttering to himself, Mo Mo suddenly noticed something was wrong. The subtle sense of unease that had been there since earlier finally surfaced slightly. Wait, is Chi Yuan really that strong now? Hasn't she lost most of her strength? And after fighting for so long, no third person has appeared... Something's wrong! "Have you noticed?" Noticing the change in Mo Mo's expression, Chi Yuan also lowered her stance, her previously exhausted expression becoming calm and composed again. "Then there's no need to continue..."

As Chi Yuan finished speaking, the scene before Mo Mo's eyes spun around. When the world returned to reality, he found himself slumped in an empty room, having somehow left the corridor. There were no signs of battle on his body. [Mo Zai! Can you hear me, Mo Zai!] The system's voice suddenly rang out. [System?] Before he could even process what had just happened, Mo Mo heard the system's call. [You're finally awake! You were acting like a fool, you know? What happened?] [What happened...?] Mo Mo realized what had happened. The few feathers that had fallen when Chi Yuan first attacked instantly clarified his chaotic thoughts. The Eighth Divine Key Feather, Dust-Crossing, governs consciousness and possesses the ability to create illusions. [Damn! I broke through the Yin! It's an illusion!] [What? Illusionary Wood? Is it Tsukuyomi or Mirror Flower Water Moon?] Without responding to the system's questions, Mo Mo quickly got up.

He had only run a few steps forward when he bumped into something. "What...?" Mo Mo sniffed, reaching out his hand and pressing it against the air in front of him. It was as if there was an invisible wall there.

59. The Last Night

Regular footsteps echoed in the silent corridor, abruptly ceasing as they reached the corner. "Is everything settled, old friend?" Chi Yuan glanced at Otto leaning against the wall, hands in his pockets, still wearing his light brown coat. "A question you already know the answer to." "Haha, truly worthy of being called the Crimson Lotus Immortal. Even she is no match for you." Otto chuckled, his hands lightly clasped together. "It's a pity we can't know what the duel in the illusion was like. No need for further probing." Chi Yuan was too lazy to look at his forced smile. 'I didn't do anything to her, just moved her to that place as you said.' "The right decision, Crimson Lotus Immortal." Otto said with a smile, "Kallen is too indecisive, still harboring illusions about our enemies. Letting her participate might affect the Second Herrscher's campaign. This is a last resort." ... Chi Yuan neither confirmed nor denied this. If it weren't for this possibility, she wouldn't have made such an outrageous move. But how could she not see Otto's true thoughts? It was nothing more than worrying that Shuang Nie would lose again. "You really don't trust her that much?" On the contrary, I made this arrangement because I trust her too much. A strange light flashed in Otto's eyes. "No one knows her better than me, no one..." But without a key combatant, do you have any way to make up for it? "She is indeed strong, but not indispensable." Otto smiled confidently, "Moreover, with your help, a mere Second Herrscher is nothing more than a piece of cake..." The familiar lines left Chi Yuan speechless. He was like an old general on a stage, with flags planted all over his back. Obviously, Otto, this Westerner, did not understand the essence of traditional Chinese art. "This campaign against the Second Herrscher is imperative, and no mistakes can be tolerated." "Is it just my imagination?" Chi Yuan suddenly asked. "You seem to harbor a particular hostility towards the Second Herrscher?" She is a Herrscher, the vanguard of evil, the enemy of humanity. To completely annihilate her and protect the innocent people is the inescapable duty of every one of us... Otto smiled slightly. "You agree, old friend?" A high-sounding statement. Chi Yuan shook her head. "When will I ever hear a truly sincere word from you?" Otto's smile remained unmoved. "One last question." With a sigh, Chi Yuan continued, "Even now, are you still obsessed with the power of the Herrscher of Death? Answer me, Yutto." "Then...this world needs more heroes." Faced with Chi Yuan's question, Otto only gave a vague answer, "And I haven't given up..."

The reason: "The plane to Siberia is ready, old friend. It's time to head to the battlefield to save the world."

Regardless of how ironic it felt, Chi Yuan eventually caught up with Otto's retreating figure without the slightest hesitation.

picture!"

A heavy punch landed on the invisible wall in front of him, but it had no effect other than causing a sharp pain. "Damn it!" Mo Mo threw another punch, but it still had no effect. [What kind of black technology is this?] [You ask me...] Mo Mo threw another punch, [Who am I asking!] "No... I can't move this thing." Supporting himself against the transparent wall in front of him, Mo Mo panted, indicating his helplessness. Since that's the case, then he can only go for Judas! Let me see if Judas is harder or your transparent shell is harder! "Lady Karen, please stop, don't continue to hurt yourself." A voice... Mo Mo's eyes lit up, "Amber, let me out quickly!" "I'm sorry, this is Lord Otto's order." Amber refused decisively, dispelling Mo Mo's unrealistic fantasies, "Please wait here patiently for a while." "Otto's order?" Mo Mo finally realized. "I was wondering why he suddenly started attacking our ally, Dun, like he'd lost his mind! Turns out it was that scoundrel Otto backing us up again!" "Why?!" "This campaign against the Second Herrscher is extremely dangerous, so Lord Otto doesn't intend for you to participate." "What?!" Mo Mo was stunned. [Oh~ I get it, so he doesn't want you to get hurt.][WTF! If I don't go, that's the real disaster!] "Where is Otto now! Call him over!" Mo Mo wanted nothing more than to slap Otto across the face like Judas. "I'm sorry, we cannot grant your request. His Excellency the Bishop is currently on a plane bound for Siberia." "Already departed?" Damn, how could it be so fast!

"Amber, let me out! I want to go to Siberia too!" Mo Mo shouted, pounding on the transparent wall in front of him. "Please don't waste your energy, Lady Karen. I will not disobey orders. You just need to wait patiently." Amber's reply was as straightforward as ever. "I still have a mission to complete and cannot accompany you for the time being. Please forgive me." "What? Hey! Don't go!" Amber's voice rang out again. "Physical means cannot destroy this place, so please, Lady Karen, do not waste your energy."

"Huh?" Mo Mo patted the wall in front of him in surprise. So even Judas couldn't break it? Hey! Explain yourself! Amber! Anyway, there was no echo anymore. "You can't leave me here! Otto will be in danger!" Now, Mo Mo had no choice but to bring up Otto. "Amber—" Perhaps she really had gone on a mission, as she said, only the echoes gradually reverberating. "Aaaaaah! Damn it!" Enraged and powerless, Mo Mo kicked the transparent turtle in front of him. [Well, it's all over now.] Even the system sighed regretfully. [I think that Red thing was only in cahoots with Otto because he was worried you'd become an obstacle. If you hadn't gone, Sirin...] [It's not that simple.] Mo Mo was also in a state of turmoil. Although he didn't know what would happen next, if Otto still clung to the power of the Herrscher of Death, it was destined to end in a way that wouldn't be simple. It would inevitably lead to a lose-lose situation. Muraseria, Red Lotus, the members of the Snow Wolf Squad, Benares, and... Sirin. [Damn it, we can't just sit here and wait to die!] Mo Mo hadn't given up yet. [Otherwise, all our efforts would be in vain!] [So what are you planning to do?] [Of course...]

Mo Mo raised a giant golden cross that appeared from the void. "To protect those I love, I've decided to launch an awesome attack!" Mo Mo swung the cross and smashed it against the wall, yelling, "Hurrah!!!"

60. The impending war

"Aaaaaah!" Mo Mo roared, brandishing the enormous cross incessantly and relentlessly pounding the transparent royal shell in front of him.

[+!] Another [eight+!]

Mo Mo had long forgotten the number of attempts; only the system's voice reminded him of his gradual decline... [Haaah~ Hmm... +.] [I'm saying, Mo Mo, are you even capable?] [You say I'm not capable? If you're capable, then you do it!] Mo Mo finally stopped his futile efforts, leaning on the cross and panting heavily. The thing in front of him showed no signs of cracking; it seemed that, as Amber had said, it couldn't be destroyed by physical means. Was he really going to wait here for the end? "What a joke!" His fist, pounding against the wall, eventually slid down weakly. "What...?" With his forehead pressed against the wall, Mo Mo bit his lip. A heavy sense of powerlessness gradually spread from his heart, taking over his entire body. No matter how unwilling he was, he had to admit the reality that he was now powerless. "So close, just one step away. Why now of all times? Why this way? Rather than sit here and wait to die, Mo Mo would rather face the end after making the final effort. But now, even that thought seems to have become a distant dream. [Mo 3...] The system seemed to want to offer some words of comfort, but only hesitated. Leaning against the wall, Mo Mo fell silent. A wave of weariness washed over his mind, but amidst endless rambling thoughts, Mo Mo couldn't bring himself to close his eyes now."

If you close your eyes even for a moment, countless horrific scenes will flash before your eyes. [System, how long have we been here? 1 [...a few hours, since you were thrown here by that red kite.] A few hours means there's still a chance.

"Looks like we have no choice but to resort to the last resort." Mo Mo raised his drooping head, his weak voice revealing an unwavering determination. [Are we going to use that move?] The system was startled. [Understood. Since you're planning to do this, then we have no choice but to go for it!] Mo Mo stood up, walked a few steps away from the wall, turned around, and faced the invisible iron wall. He took a deep breath. "Final Attack Ridge..." As the system chanted, Mo Mo suddenly opened his arms and shouted, "Open the door!!!"... "Woldler Fuck? Weren't you going to use your ultimate move to kick the wall?" The loud voice echoed, but the transparent wall in front of him remained unchanged. [What are you doing? Are you crazy? How could such a method be possible...? Why am I always getting slapped in the face so quickly?] Amidst the system's incredulous voice, the transparent wall seemed to dissolve, creating a gap. The first thing Mo Mo and the system saw was a familiar, huge golden signboard. "Judas?" [Judas?] Has the Key of God, Judas, finally come to life as the Valkyrie Judas to save people? "It's me!" An angry voice rang out, accompanied by a stomping sound. Mo Mo's gaze shifted slightly downwards, and he finally saw the person in question.

That level 5 Valkyrie Judah (note the punctuation) launcher Theresa, who was bedridden and slacking off for a long time after being instantly killed by a single-core Sirin! "I suspect you're talking about me badly..." Theresa muttered, looking up at Mo Mo's slightly surprised expression with suspicion, but quickly changed her expression, "I roughly understand what happened, come with me to Siberia."

"What are you waiting for? There's no time to explain! Let's get going! Otherwise, Amber will wake up soon! So what exactly did you do?" "Huh? Oh." The sudden change in the situation left Momo somewhat bewildered. Although he didn't know what had happened, he quickly picked up the Judas lying to the side. "There really are other Judas..." Theresa couldn't help but take a second look. And it was exactly the same as the one on her back. But there was no time to investigate now. "Let's go! The plane is ready..." Theresa was about to turn around and run when she found herself being lifted up, her feet off the ground. "Wait! What are you doing!" "Didn't you say there was no time?!" Momo carried a Judas on his back, another under his left arm, and Theresa under his right arm. He took a sudden step forward and started running. "Charge!!! The target is Siberia!"

Hours later, in Siberia. In the biting cold wind, a square formation of several hundred people stood on a high slope, gazing at the pure white snowfield below. "Hey, Siegfried, what are you thinking about?" A sudden jolt on his shoulder pulled Siegfried from his reverie. "I'm fine, Nicholas," Siegfried sighed. "Just spacing out." "Eh? Thinking about the captain?" Shub chuckled mischievously. "It's alright, it's alright, you can be all lovey-dovey again after this war." "Nicholas, I'm telling you..." Siegfried pushed her, but Shub dodged, sending him shoving her away. "Can't you just set a goal without dragging others down with you? I want to live a few more years." "Stupid dog, be serious, this mission is very important, yes..."

"Absolutely no mistakes can be tolerated, right? Of course I know that." Shub interrupted Salome's lecture, her frivolous smile fading slightly. "It's precisely because it's such a dangerous mission that I want to do everything in my power to survive, whether for myself or for others. Hey, right, playboy?"

"Go away, I told you not to listen to that girl Qi Luo's nonsense." Siegfried sighed helplessly, then shifted his gaze back to the snowflakes in front of him. "If you want to survive, don't be careless. After all, this time we're facing an unprecedented five-core Herrscher." The reason he was spacing out earlier wasn't because he was reminiscing about a peaceful life. It was because Siegfried was clutching his pocket tightly. Inside was a rare item called "Hypermutation Factor" given to him by Einstein. Remembering Einstein's last words, Siegfried felt his heart clench. He could only pray that there was no need to use this thing.

Moreover, Walter has remained unconscious since returning to Earth, trapped in a deep coma. The diagnosis, while related to the severity of his injuries, primarily stems from an unexplained head injury. Although not life-threatening, when he will awaken is uncertain. Hopefully, he'll be alright. "Siegfried, His Excellency the Archbishop is about to begin the carpet bombing of the Siberian plains. As the leader, you should take this opportunity to reiterate the orders for this operation," Salome reminded them. "That's true..." Siegfried turned around and shouted to the neatly arranged square formation before him. "Gentlemen! After the bombing, we will advance into the Siberian Plain. Note that our mission objective is to locate the Second Herrscher. During the search, try to avoid attrition warfare with the Kaiju, conserve your strength, and once the location is confirmed, send a signal to coordinate with other units to concentrate our forces and eliminate the Second Herrscher! Once the Second Herrscher is eliminated, we will save this world!" After a pause, Siegfried continued, "There is one more thing you must always remember: 'You must come back alive!'"

The resounding, orderly responses shook the white snow and soared straight into the clouds.

61. The countdown to the end begins.

"Faced with a desperate numerical disadvantage of 5000 vs 500, Bishop Otto chose to carpet-bomb the Siberian plain with heavy weapons. At the bishop's command, countless missiles arced through the sky, then rained down on the Siberian plain... Oh dear, it's already here?" A lone figure stood on a deserted hilltop, holding a book filled with illustrations and text. Looking up at the sky, he could already see the long trails of missiles. "On the Siberian plain, massive explosions continued to occur." *Boom!* The first mushroom cloud burst open on the snowfield, the deafening roar of the explosions deafening. "The heat from the explosions instantly vaporized the snow..." The second... the third... The continuous explosions turned this azure world into a sea of ​​fire, dyeing the azure sky as dark as dusk. Looking down at the unparalleled spectacle before him, Nefert Seven closed the book in his hands, the words "Horn of the 3rd" on the cover particularly eye-catching. "It seems this banquet has reached its climax. I can't wait to see what happens next..." Nefert Seven's mutterings were drowned out by the continuous explosions. "My master, please don't be late, your time is running out..." He tossed the comic book into the sea of ​​fire before him and turned away with a flourish. For now, it wasn't his turn to appear.

After the explosion subsided, two Valkyrie units stormed into the scorched earth from the north and south of the plain. This bombardment, which emptied the arsenal of Destiny's weaponry, annihilated about 90% of the Horned Beasts, but the remaining number was still far beyond the reach of a mere 500-strong Valkyrie unit. Unfortunately, Siegfried's forces unexpectedly encountered a large horde of Horned Beasts amidst the inferno. "Damn it, we encountered them so quickly!" Siegfried raised the Heavenly Judgment and pulled the trigger towards the horde of attacking Horned Beasts flying through the sky. "Everyone, make sure it's quick! Don't let it drag into a war of attrition." "Hey!" Shub leaped up, brandishing her spear and thrusting it downwards, instantly killing a Chariot-class Honkai Beast. "Needless to say?" You'd better watch out... Siegfried aimed at the sky and kept firing, his gaze piercing through the dense beast net, spotting the figure soaring high above them. "That's... It's that Horned Honkai Beast!" Salome recognized it at a glance—the Judgment-class Honkai Beast that had once instantly killed her. It was the same one that Momo had defeated alone and then that Sirin had taken. "Damn it, this is a big problem." "Shuai off the charging beast, Shub's expression was also grim. If it held them off until the rest of the horned beast horde arrived, this group of just over 200 people would likely be wiped out in this sea of ​​fire." Siegfried suddenly widened his eyes. "Everyone, scatter!" The figure standing in the sky spread its huge wings, and a huge purple ball of electricity gradually gathered above its head. "That move again?" by Shub & Salome. "Let me handle it!" Siegfried aimed at the ball of electricity, and equally scorching energy gathered on his twin pistols. Die, humans. "Muttering a whispered, unheard word, Benares flapped its wings and flung the huge ball of electricity to the ground.

"[Here it comes!]" Siegfried gritted his teeth, his finger about to pull the trigger. "You little brother, step back a bit." Suddenly, a dark figure leaped high, blocking Siegfried's view. "It's just a ball! Watch me smash it back!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the figure raised the cross in his hand and faced the electric ball head-on. After a series of crackling sounds, the electric ball was sent flying into the distance, exploding into a firework in the sky.

"It's you! We meet again, Siegfried." Landing lightly on the ground, Momo greeted them. "And Nicholas, Salome, it seems I've arrived just in time." "Oh! You're here, big shot!" "Mr. Momo is here too?"

"But you're not that..." Siegfried clearly remembered Amber's earlier words. "Hey, wait for me!" A slightly childish shout interrupted Siegfried's question, and soon a little girl appeared in his line of sight, perched on a rapidly moving cross. "Theresa? You're here too?" Looking at the two extremely similar figures in front of him, one big and one small, Siegfried felt a little dizzy for a moment. But he hadn't yet reached the point of mistaking her for someone else. "Of course, it's to support you!" Theresa jumped down from Judas. "How could I be left out of this? If Otto knew, he might be so angry he'd vomit blood." Siegfried's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly. "Looks like we're going to have a big showdown this time." "This spectacle isn't big enough..." Although he hadn't witnessed the explosion firsthand, Mo Mo could imagine the unprecedented scale from the still-burning sea of ​​fire. But Siegfried was right; it was time to put an end to everything. "Hey, what are you still standing there for?" Theresa suddenly kicked Mo Mo. "Weren't you going to find the Second Herrscher?" You... so you haven't given up after all. Siegfried was taken aback, then a knowing look appeared on his face. "Then go ahead and do it. We'll handle things here." "Is that awesome guy going to fight the Second Herrscher one-on-one? I'd love to join in, but it seems the one in the sky doesn't agree." Shub looked up at Benares in the sky, a fearless smile on her face. "Then we'll take care of her!" "Lord Mo, be careful in everything." [Mo Zai.1]

"I understand!" "Then I'll gladly accept your offer." Without needing further words, Mo Mo stepped onto the Judas carpet laid out beneath his feet. After a tremor, the golden cross...

Gradually, it floated up. Just now, Momo had learned another form of Judah's vehicle from Theresa! "I'm off!" The giant cross carried Momo, roaring into the distance, its destination the unyielding tower of Babbitt—where it all began. "The outcome will depend on this." Gazing at the distant tower, Momo muttered to himself. [Let's wait patiently a little longer. 1 [Sirin]]

"Human, don't even think about passing!" Benares's gaze locked onto Momo, who had burst forth from the crowd. She flapped her wings, intending to take flight, but golden chains and crimson flames blocked her path. "Your opponents are us!"

At the top of the Babbitt Tower 1E, a solitary figure sat on the edge, the void before him reflecting the image of Momo rushing towards him on a cross. "You'd better hurry, Momo, I can't wait to see you, to see you, to kill you. This time, I won't let that weakness hold me back." However... before entertaining you, it seems I need to clear out some of the infiltrated insects. Sirin floated up, turned, and sat atop an invisible throne, her haughty gaze sweeping over the three people below. "Insects, huh? Have you decided how you want to die? I don't have much time, you know."

62. Mo Mo, who never stops

Atop the towering Tower of Babylon, a unique battle has come to an end.

A mouthful of crimson blood gushed from Chi Yuan's mouth, and she swayed, only to be caught swiftly by Cheng Lixue, who stood by her side, ready to help. "Master! Are you alright, Master!" Cheng Lixue cried out anxiously, shaking Chi Yuan's shoulders. No one else could know what had happened in Yu Duchen's illusion, but this collapse from vomiting blood was certainly not a good sign. The most likely outcome was that the Second Herrscher had won. "I've failed. Get out of here quickly." Chi Yuan clutched her chest, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, her expression wilted, her eyes lifeless. 'Although I don't know who you are, I can…'

After uttering the last word, Chi Yuan suddenly loosened her grip on Cheng Lixue's hand, her eyes glazed over, and she fainted in Cheng Lixue's arms. "Master..."

The once powerful and reliable master now lay unconscious in his arms, appearing incredibly vulnerable.

"Your Excellency." Holding Chi Yuan in her arms, Cheng Lixue walked over to Otto, who was kneeling in a daze, and handed him Chi Yuan. "Please take the master as soon as possible..."

"Leave this place." With that, Cheng Lixue gripped her sword hilt tightly, turned around, and faced Sirin, who had broken free from the illusion and regained consciousness. She resolutely declared, "I'll hold off the Second Herrscher. Even my master couldn't defeat this enemy; I'm destined to have no chance of winning, not even a one in ten thousand. But even so, I cannot back down. Even if it costs me my life, I must buy them more time to escape."

After making contact with the Second Herrscher, the Void Archives became unusable for unknown reasons. Now, staying here only adds two more Remnants. Therefore, rather than total annihilation, abandoning an insignificant character should be the most rational choice.

A massive cross descended from the sky, crashing into the ground in front of Cheng Lixue, accompanied by a purple figure. "It's alright now." The seemingly frail figure exuded a sense of security. "Because I've come!" "Crazy?!" Yu Tuo nearly dropped the red-clad figure in his arms... The person who should have been imprisoned in Europe appeared before him at this most critical moment—an unimaginable scene. Cheng Lixue also recognized Mo Mo and the cross beside her. "Miss Cheng, quickly take the Red-Clothed Mountain People and Bishop Otto away." Mo Mo said, repeating lines almost identical to Cheng Lixue's earlier, "Next, it's my stage. Although my skills are lacking, staying here can still lend you a hand." "Right now, any random monster could kill them. Can you really let them leave like this?" Mo Mo countered, while also warily eyeing Mo Ming.

The strangely inactive Sirin, aside from watching her with a curious gaze, remained completely silent and motionless. "I understand, Your Excellency, please..." Cheng Lixue glanced back at Chiyi in Otto's arms with a complex expression. She knew there was no time left for thought. "I understand, Your Excellency, please..."

"I won't allow you to do anything foolish again. It seems the tragedy of Karen from five hundred years ago is about to repeat itself. How could Otto accept that? Does choosing to have it all mean getting nothing at all?" "You still dare to talk back! You actually locked me up! I'll settle the score with you later!" Raising her eyebrows and glaring at Otto, Mo Mo then turned to Cheng Lixue and said, "Cheng..."

"Miss, take them away, immediately, right now." "I will never leave unless you..." *Slap!*

Mo Mo turned around decisively, slapping Otto on the back of the neck without a word, silencing him. "The rest is up to you, Miss Cheng," Mo Mo said, pushing the limp Otto towards Cheng Lixue. Cheng Lixue, carrying Otto in one arm and Chi Yuan under her other, glanced at Mo Mo with a complex expression before turning away without hesitation.

[By the way, can you take care?] [That's not up to me.]

Once Cheng Lixue's figure disappeared from the top of the tower, Xilin, who had regained her superior position, spoke leisurely again, "Has this familiar scene repeated itself once more?"

"Please excuse my rudeness." But I have indeed witnessed an incredibly rare sight. "Speaking of which, this is the third time already, isn't it? For those..." (Certainly floated high in the air, legs crossed.)

"Even an ant would sacrifice its life to stand in front of me? Truly, you are something else." Mo Mo's simple words contained countless profound meanings, even her golden eyes gleamed with an enigmatic light. "I simply don't want others to interfere in our affairs," Mo Mo replied calmly.

"What a coincidence, that's what I was thinking too," Xishan said with a charming smile. "That's why I just watched them run away like stray dogs. Anyway, they couldn't possibly escape this snowfield full of monsters. Compared to him... you're definitely more worthy of my attention." This inner turmoil was an unprecedented experience, which only subsided slightly when he appeared before her. "That's not necessarily true, but never underestimate the power of humans." "So, since you've blocked my way again, it means you're mentally prepared to be completely killed by me, right?" Xishan asked innocently.

Her smiling face belied her cold, ruthless words: "Or do you think that because I showed mercy twice, you're all that?" "I'm standing before you still hoping to save you," Mo Mo said earnestly, looking directly into Xilin's eyes. Xilin's previously warm smile vanished instantly, as if she had been provoked.

"Haven't you given up on this unrealistic delusion yet?" "Why should I give up?" Mo Mo retorted. "No matter how many times, I will never give up!" Xilin didn't offer an explanation. "Fine, anyway, after today, no one will utter such nonsense anymore." "Then let's go." Mo Mo, supporting himself on the cross, fearlessly straightened his chest. "Is it 0~?"

Xilin's voice rang out from behind, but the spot where she had been standing was now empty. "Then I won't be polite, girl~" Three spears of the void appeared from the sky, aimed at Mo Mo's head.
