Soon, Sirin entered the range of the lightning net without any trouble. The rumbling of thunder in the sky was incessant, and every now and then a bolt of lightning would suddenly strike not far in front of Sirin, almost startling her. Sirin thought that if this happened every day, even she, as a Herrscher, would have a heart attack from the fright.

In this situation, the dodging training a few days ago became very important. No matter how sudden the lightning strike was, Sirin was able to dodge it and avoid being injured. Sirin was worried that it might cause step voltage, but whether it was because of the special constitution of a Herrscher or something else, Sirin only felt a little tingling and numb, and then nothing more.

So Sirin opened her heart and boldly moved forward. It has to be said that Alicia's devilish training was really effective. Every time, Sirin could sense the danger above her head and dodge accurately. People couldn't help but wonder if Sirin was a god with cheat codes. She almost always narrowly avoided danger.

With her highly skilled dodging, Sirin finally arrived at the very center of Changkong City, the location of the Third Herrscher.

There was no lightning in this small area, and no dark clouds overhead. Looking up, you could see a dim sky, and it would be dawn in an hour or two.

Moonlight streamed through this small, cloudless hole, and directly beneath it lay a gigantic purple crystal. Sirin sensed it closely; it was formed from a massive and concentrated amount of Honkai energy.

Surrounding this giant Honkai energy crystal are some smaller, finer Honkai energy crystals, making it look like a flower. Moonlight from the sky pours down on the Honkai energy crystal, making it look absolutely beautiful.

Inside this giant Honkai energy crystal was a purple-haired girl with wings of light on her back. She wore an incredibly noble purple gown, but unlike ordinary gowns, it was much lighter and shorter, only reaching her knees. A long train ran down her back, and the gown was decorated with intricate patterns. Her small feet were barefoot.

Without a doubt, she is an extremely beautiful girl. Even those with the highest aesthetic standards would exclaim "Beautiful Girl!" upon seeing her. Yet, this very beautiful girl is the Third Herrscher.

Sirin couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but to be fair, the Honkai Will had a pretty good eye for choosing people, selecting either handsome men or beautiful women as Herrschers, and the clothes were also quite amazing.

After observing the surroundings for a while, Sirin prepared to carry out her assassination mission. There were less than fifteen minutes left. If she continued to waste time, she would really miss the opportunity to assassinate him.

Sirin crouched low and quietly circled around to the back of the girl inside the crystal. However, it was only then that Sirin realized that she didn't seem to have any high-damage single-target weapons. The power of the Void Spear didn't seem to be enough either. How could a qualified assassin attempt an assassination without a suitable weapon? She had miscalculated.

This time, however, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it. I'll just use the Void Spear as my weapon. If one spear isn't enough to do the damage, I'll just use a few more.

But after making that decision, Sirin thought again, wouldn't this make it even easier to be exposed? So many Void Spears, if this method doesn't work, what other methods are there?

Just when Celine was at her wit's end, a sudden inspiration struck her. Wait, the space here seems to be very distorted, and distortion means instability. And she is a master at manipulating space.

Why doesn't she just make this space even more unstable? Ideally, she should just create a spatial blast. A spatial blast over such a large area would likely cause serious injury even to a Herrscher.

After making this decision, Celine's lips curled into a slight smile. It seems she's quite clever after all.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: The City Center Ripped to the Ground

Having made this decision, Sirin closed her eyes and sensed the extremely distorted spatial structure around her. There were less than ten minutes left, and the opponent's Herrscher was becoming increasingly active. Everything had to be done as quickly as possible.

Just as she thought, the distorted spatial structure around her created several nodes that were on the verge of collapse. All she had to do was detonate the surrounding space to cause these nodes to collapse, which would trigger a spatial blast.

However, if an attack is launched directly without interfering with the space itself, it is impossible to damage the structure of the space itself unless the force of the attack is large enough.

Although the explosion of the Spear of Subspace can cause a small-scale spatial tremor, the force is still not enough. A force must detonate these spatial nodes together to achieve the best effect.

Therefore, after a moment's thought, Sirin decided to directly interfere with these nodes through her powers. If these nodes were still in their complete state, it would be difficult to interfere. Although Sirin could do it, the cost would be high and the benefit low, so there was no need to do so.

These spatial nodes are already on the verge of collapse due to the pressure from the distorted spatial structure. This is equivalent to a fully armed person removing all their defenses in front of you. With Sirin's power, you can achieve the greatest effect at the lowest cost.

With just over five minutes remaining, she had to hurry. After sensing the time, Sirin activated her powers to begin interfering with the surrounding space. As the Herrscher of the Void, manipulating space was naturally a basic power for her. Before long, Sirin felt that she had grasped these spatial nodes.

Next came the fireworks display, but Sirin understood that the damage from the spatial blast was indiscriminate, and she was prepared to immediately envelop herself in an imaginary barrier after detonating these nodes.

Xilin took a deep breath and silently counted to three.

As the last sound faded, a strange creaking sound suddenly rang out around them, as if something was about to collapse under the weight.

These were the sounds produced by the compression of the surrounding spatial nodes, and under Sirin's control, these spatial nodes collapsed in no time.

The moment the spatial node collapsed, the space in front of Sirin was extremely distorted, and even the light became distorted. At this moment, Sirin's expression suddenly changed.

At the same time, a system notification sounded in Sirin's ear.

Congratulations on triggering double damage effect!

[Note: This attack has been detected as indiscriminate. Please take precautions.]

Although this was a good thing, Sirin was not happy at all at this moment. Because the explosion happened very quickly, Sirin could only barely surround her body with the imaginary barrier before she was swallowed up by the explosion.

The consequences of a large-scale collapse of the spatial structure are terrifying. The violent spatial explosion at the center point caused the surrounding nodes, which were already unstable due to the accumulation of Honkai energy, to collapse and explode. This chain reaction caused the range and power of the spatial explosion to far exceed Sirin's expectations. Who would have thought that the spatial nodes around here were so weak!

Finally, and most importantly, the damage effect was doubled, which caused even the previously stable spatial nodes to be destroyed. Starting from the very center of the city center, and extending to almost the entire outer area of ​​the city center, the spatial blast's range was completely affected.

The entire space was shattered by Sirin's attack, and most importantly, Sirin herself was also caught in the crossfire of this powerful attack.

Even though the space's restorative power reshaped the spatial nodes shortly after the spatial tremor, it was still impossible to restore such a large area of ​​space to its original state in a short time.

The collapse of the spatial structure also caused the accumulated Honkai energy in the city center to erupt prematurely, resulting in Honkai.

The city center of Changkong City was completely destroyed by the ultra-intense spatial collapse and the high-level collapse.

The once towering buildings collapsed under the impact of the explosion, with debris flying everywhere. Everything within its range, no matter how strong or magnificent it once was, was reduced to ruins.

All that remains is a vast expanse of ruins and a giant crater. If viewed from above, the crater in the city center of Changkong City would be clearly visible, standing out starkly against the backdrop of the surrounding high-rise buildings.

The thunderclouds in the sky stopped striking, but continued to churn and rumble with thunder.

The Honkai had already begun, and the Honkai Beasts gathered on the outskirts of the city center let out a deafening roar.

A large number of Honkai Beasts were spawned by the spreading Honkai energy, but they did not leave Changkong City. Instead, they lingered in the same spot, as if waiting for something.

The loud explosion could be heard even by the Firemoth troops who had retreated to the edge of the thundercloud, but because of the distance, they had no idea what had happened.

Alicia stood at the edge of the new base, facing Changkong City, gazing outwards. Sirin had not returned as she had expected, nor was she among the reinforcements for the Fire Moth. Through communication with Mebius, Alicia knew that Sirin had already returned.

But now she's nowhere to be seen. Where did she go? Alicia looked towards Changkong City, and there was only one answer: Sirin went to Changkong City alone. And what else could she be doing in Changkong City? Nothing more than clearing out the Honkai Beasts and... going to find the Third Herrscher.

Alicia understood that Sirin must have gone to find the Third Herrscher. Sirin wouldn't focus her energy on Honkai Beasts at such a crucial time. She was a smart person, and Alicia guessed that the deafening noise just now must be related to Sirin.

Standing quietly for a long time, Alicia sighed with a hint of helplessness. What a self-righteous person she is! She'll definitely spank her little bottom when she gets back.

You must come back... Sirin...

……

The city center of Changkong City has been reduced to ruins, especially in the central area of ​​the space blast, where there are almost no large rocks left because they have been reduced to smaller fragments.

Although the explosion was short-lived, it still caused enormous damage. The spatial nodes here have been repaired, but the space remains chaotic.

Amidst the rubble, a dusty and disheveled Xilin crawled out, looking around with lingering fear. If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would have truly perished here. Had she really gotten herself into trouble? Xilin shook her head with a wry smile.

She clutched her chest. Although she wasn't seriously injured, she was still quite badly hurt. This was after she had frequently released imaginary number barriers and used imaginary number power to protect herself. Presumably, the Third Herrscher, caught completely off guard, must have been seriously injured when hit by this attack.

Although the spatial blast just now did not last long, its power in the very center exceeded that of a Herrscher, which is why her imaginary barrier, which had a Herrscher-level limit, was broken time and time again.

Speaking of which, was that guy seriously injured or dead? Sirin looked around, hoping to find the Third Herrscher.

At that moment, a terrifying wave emanated from not far from Xilin. Xilin's expression changed, and she cursed inwardly, "How come this guy is still alive!"

Moreover, the fluctuations of a Herrscher of this level... were almost as if she were not injured at all... but she must have been injured, her aura was obviously unstable, which relieved Sirin.

If she wasn't injured, then this is a huge problem!

Chapter Thirty: Sirin Almost Messed Up

Looking at the area where the Herrscher energy was gradually becoming active not far away, Sirin flew backward in mid-air. Although she was injured, she could feel her cells absorbing the surrounding Honkai energy to help her recover, but all of this would take time.

Having experienced the collapse and reconstruction of the spatial structure, the space here is now significantly more fragile than other places, making it easier for Sirin to wield her powers and control them.

After retreating dozens of meters, Xilin finally stopped. The cloak behind her was tattered due to the spatial blast. It was painful to see something she had just acquired damaged so quickly.

However, Sirin was in no mood to feel sorry for her cloak. Not far in front of her, a purple-haired girl stood up from the pile of rubble. Her once gorgeous dress was now tattered, and her body was covered with countless wounds. Although they were healing, they were still a shocking sight.

That was the Third Herrscher. Even though she was injured, her ever-increasing Honkai energy level told Sirin that she was still a formidable enemy.

Sirin stared intently at the Third Herrscher, watching her every move. Behind Sirin, six Void Spears had already appeared, ready to fight the Third Herrscher.

In this desolate wasteland, the wind howled, whipping up clouds of dust, and thunder roared in the sky, sending chills down one's spine.

At that moment, a loud laugh rang out and echoed through the area, the laughter filled with extreme anger.

Suddenly, the laughter stopped abruptly, and at the same time, a cold, sharp shout and a rumble of thunder exploded together.

"Die! You who steal the authority of God!"

As soon as the shout fell, bolts of lightning struck towards Xilin's location with unprecedented speed. Fortunately, Xilin's sense of danger was still quite sharp.

With a thought, a portal appeared above Sirin's head, swallowing the surging, roaring lightning. Then, another portal opened above the Third Herrscher's head, unleashing a torrent of thunder with the same overwhelming power, but this time the target of the attack had changed.

The Third Herrscher, with a cold face, waved her hand and easily dispersed the lightning. Her expression was as cold as ice as she looked at Sirin not far away, her eyes filled with anger and disdain.

"Is this all you can do? In that case, you might as well die!" As soon as she finished speaking, the Third Herrscher disappeared from her spot in the blink of an eye and arrived in front of Sirin in an instant. Her movements were impossible to detect with the naked eye. Her right hand was stretched out and stabbed towards Sirin's throat. Upon closer inspection, there were even some arcs of electricity dancing on it.

Sirin's pupils contracted slightly. She had clearly not expected the Third Herrscher to attack so quickly. In her panic, she condensed three layers of imaginary barriers in front of her to block the Third Herrscher's attack.

The Third Herrscher's palm broke through one layer the instant it made contact with the Imaginary Number Barrier. The three layers of the Imaginary Number Barrier were completely shattered after only three or four breaths.

However, these three layers of imaginary barriers were not entirely useless. At least they bought Sirin time to dodge. Sirin tilted her head back and retreated, narrowly avoiding the attack and once again widening the distance between herself and the Third Herrscher.

Sirin looked at the Third Herrscher not far away with lingering fear. Were all Herrschers from the previous civilization like this? Without saying a word, they attacked directly. She had originally thought that the Third Herrscher might be the kind of BOSS who talked for a long time before attacking, but now it seemed that she was disappointed.

But... why did this guy stop attacking? Wasn't he just yelling that he wanted her dead?

Sirin floated in mid-air, watching the Third Herrscher, who had stopped attacking, not far away with great vigilance, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

At that moment, Sirin saw some rubble with steel bars floating up around the Third Herrscher, and a moment later, it shot towards Sirin at an extremely fast speed. If Sirin hadn't reacted quickly and summoned a spatial portal in front of her that was just big enough to block her, she would have been hit by countless rubble.

If a stone traveling at that speed were to hit her, she would definitely be covered in bruises.

Before Sirin could return all the rubble that had been swallowed by the portal to the Third Herrscher, the Third Herrscher's attack came right in front of her. Only then did she realize that the dense attack just now was actually a smokescreen to distract her and divert her attention.

But Sirin realized it too late. After the portal closed, the Third Herrscher appeared in front of Sirin. Her right hand, shaped like a claw and crackling with lightning, attacked Sirin's abdomen, where Sirin's Herrscher core was located, as if she wanted to forcibly pull Sirin's Herrscher core out.

At this critical moment, Sirin felt her spirits become heightened, and everything before her eyes slowed down. She knew she couldn't let the other side succeed. Her Herrscher core had been captured so quickly after the fight had only started! What kind of situation was this?

With Sirin's full effort, a small portal blocked the Third Herrscher's path. The Third Herrscher was startled, but before she could change direction, her hand was swallowed by the portal. At that moment, Sirin closed the portal, and the Third Herrscher's hand was stuck in the gap of space.

It can only be said that a Herrscher is still a Herrscher. The suddenly closed portal did not sever the Third Herrscher's hand, but instead created a spatial rift in place, but the Third Herrscher's hand was still firmly stuck there.

Within this still chaotic space, numerous spatial turbulences crisscrossed the gaps in space. These turbulences, like knives, sliced ​​through the arm of the Third Herrscher that had been swallowed up, leaving it bloody and raw. The excruciating pain in her right hand caused the Third Herrscher to let out an incredibly shrill scream.

This was the first time Sirin had tried using a portal, and she hadn't expected it to produce such a good result on her first try. Of course, such a good result could only be achieved here.

As long as one is not an ordinary person, one can still withstand the spatial displacement caused by the sudden closure of the portal, which creates a spatial rift. In normal space, there is no spatial turbulence in a spatial rift.

If you have enough strength, you can break free completely, but in such a chaotic place, if you get stuck, it will be very difficult to pull yourself out, and even if you do manage to pull yourself out, your hand will probably be ruined.

Sirin, of course, could not let this opportunity slip by. As soon as the Third Herrscher's hand was trapped, dozens of Void Spears appeared behind her. Sirin quickly retreated and used Time Imprisonment on the Third Herrscher.

The Third Herrscher's attack came too fast, and she was completely stunned. Now she has the initiative, and it's her turn to attack!

Chapter Thirty-One: The Trump Card Revealed! Duel Domain!

Dozens of Void Spears appeared from behind the Third Herrscher and pierced her back. However, the Third Herrscher, who was trapped in the spacetime confinement, moved extremely slowly. Her arm was still stuck in the spatial rift and could not move.
