I am Möbius's sister.

Looking at the proud and aloof Sirin, Alicia's smile grew even brighter. Little Sirin is so adorable!

After Sirin finished speaking, she lay down on Alicia's lap. It has to be said that Alicia's lap was really soft, and it also had a charming fragrance. Sirin closed her eyes contentedly, and because it was so comfortable, she soon fell asleep.

Only Sirin's steady breathing could be heard inside the transport ship.

Time passed slowly, and before long, the transport ship arrived near the airspace above Changkong City.

[Warning! Warning! High-intensity thunderstorm detected ahead! Communication disrupted! Preparing for emergency landing!]

Suddenly, a piercing alarm sounded, waking Sirin from her deep sleep.

[WARNING! WARNING! Multiple Honkai energy reactions detected on land and in the sky!]

While Xilin was still completely bewildered, in addition to the AI's alarm, she also heard a system notification.

The Honkai Beast Tide has begun. Good luck!

Chapter Sixteen: This is your trial!

The system notification completely snapped Sirin out of her daze, and the soft touch of Alicia's thigh seemed to linger on the back of Sirin's head.

However, Sirin couldn't care less about that at the moment. She quickly got up from Alicia's lap and unbuckled her seatbelt. Alicia, who was next to her, also unbuckled her seatbelt, and her expression became somewhat serious.

Although she can be a bit eccentric at times, Alicia is very reliable when it matters.

The transport ship began to make an emergency landing as it continued to fall. The emergency landing caused the ship to shake violently, and Sirin and Alicia held hands to barely keep their footing.

After descending to a low altitude, Sirin could sense the dense Honkai energy reactions not far away. Presumably, each Honkai energy reaction corresponded to a ferocious Honkai beast. Just thinking about having to face so many Honkai beasts made Sirin's scalp tingle.

A moment later, the transport ship landed steadily on the ground. After the ship's doors opened, Sirin and Alicia ran out.

This is a highway. Although it's still some distance from the Firemoth's camp, it's not far. Sirin can see the clusters of tents in the distance, and... the flames rising from the tents.

The massive Honkai Beasts rampaged through the camp of the Fire Moths, and Sirin could still hear explosions coming from that direction. Thunder roared in the sky, the rolling thunder sounding like the wrath of a god.

The wind howled, blowing up Celine's skirt and long purple hair, and also stirring her heart.

Sirin looked back and saw the boundary of the thunderclouds not far behind her and Alicia. There was no rumbling thunder, no howling wind, and no rampaging Honkai Beasts outside. The moonlight shone on that side, spilling onto the ground and outlining a clear dividing line.

Chaos reigned on one side, while tranquility reigned on the other. Celine knew that the tranquility was false; she had once belonged there, but now she had stepped into the chaos.

“Let’s go, Sirin, let’s go save them. You can do it, right?” Alicia took Sirin’s hand, turned her head to look at Sirin, her eyes full of trust.

"I...I don't know." Sirin lowered her head, her voice lacking confidence. There were already several thousand Honkai Beasts rampaging through the camp, and the actual number was definitely over ten thousand. She didn't know if she could handle them.

She hadn't adjusted her mindset yet. She thought she could quickly adapt to the battlefield, but when she actually saw the scene on the battlefield, a sense of fear rose in her heart. Could she really do it?

As Sirin struggled with her dilemma, Alicia suddenly cupped Sirin's face in her hands, looked into her eyes, and said, word by word, "You can do it. Don't think about anything else. Treat this as training. You are a Herrscher, you have the ability to wipe out those Honkai Beasts. I know your mindset is still that of an ordinary person, but now you have to change. When you step onto the battlefield, you will no longer be an ordinary person, but a warrior."

"Warrior..." Sirin murmured to herself, feeling the warmth of Alicia's palm.

"Yes, that's right, warrior. Today's battle is a trial, a trial for you. I believe you can do it!" Alicia smiled at Sirin, an encouraging smile. "Beautiful girls are always capable of anything!"

Seeing the smile on Alicia's face, Sirin pursed her lips, pondered for a moment, and her eyes gradually became firm.

"Sister Alicia, let's go and save them." Sirin gripped Alicia's hand tightly, her gaze fixed on the Fire Moth's camp. A dark crack appeared in front of her, gradually expanding into a perfectly formed, dark circle. The outer edge of the circle was decorated with electrical circuit patterns—a spatial portal leading to the Fire Moth's camp.

This time, Celine didn't look back. Instead, she gritted her teeth and stepped into the portal. She knew that her peaceful life was no longer relevant to her. Her past memories were becoming increasingly ambiguous, while her present memories were becoming clearer and clearer.

Celine understood that she was beginning to change, but growing up was indeed painful...

After Sirin and Alicia stepped into the portal, it disappeared, leaving only the howling wind still raging.

There is no such thing as a peaceful and carefree life; it's just that someone is bearing the burden for you.

……

Fire Moth Camp

"Damn it! How come there are more and more Honkai Beasts!" A middle-aged man in an officer's uniform frowned as he wielded a large, futuristic-looking machete, slashing at the attacking Honkai Beasts. This was a Honkai energy weapon, the only weapon that could allow a single person to effectively kill a Honkai Beast.

"Sir! The last howitzer has been destroyed! And more Honkai Beasts are pouring out of Changkong City! Should we retreat?" Just as the middle-aged man successfully killed a Charge-class Honkai Beast, a young woman ran over in a panic.

"Retreat? What retreat! We can't retreat! If we retreat, who will stop these Honkai Beasts! Even if we all die today, we will stop these damned Honkai Beasts! Dying on the battlefield is a good ending!" A relieved smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face, and purple lines had appeared on his cheeks.

Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, the young woman gritted her teeth, gave him a military salute, and firmly shouted, "Yes, sir!"

They had been holding their ground for more than ten minutes, and in that short time, they had suffered heavy casualties, but they did not retreat. They had only one belief in their hearts: to stop these Honkai Beasts here, even if the price was that no one would survive.

After the young woman left, the middle-aged man was knocked away by a tank-class Honkai Beast. He fell to the ground, the blood gushing from his mouth now tinged with a glaring purple, and his vision gradually blurred.

The ferocious tank-class Honkai Beast gradually approached him, like the Grim Reaper.

I'm so sorry... girls... I couldn't let you all go back safely...

The middle-aged man still gripped the broken machete tightly in his hand. His once neat military uniform was now incredibly dirty and disheveled, but the Moth of Fire emblem on it remained as good as new. He struggled to get up but felt excruciating pain all over his body.

Finally, he closed his eyes, awaiting death, but a look of regret remained on his face.

One second, two seconds... he counted in his mind, waiting for death to reap his life.

But after more than ten seconds, death still hadn't come; instead, he heard a heavy thud as something fell to the ground.

He opened his eyes and looked over there. The tank-class Honkai Beast had fallen to the ground at some point, and strangely shaped spikes were stuck in its body. Beside the tank-class Honkai Beast's corpse stood a purple-haired girl and a pink-haired girl.

When he noticed the pink-haired girl's distinctive face, he smiled with delight; reinforcements had arrived.

Unfortunately, he was about to die.

Purple lines had spread all over his body. He slowly closed his eyes, and this time there was no regret on his face.

Chapter Seventeen: This is the time of judgment!

"Is he already dead?" Sirin approached the middle-aged man, looking at his lifeless body with a complex expression in her eyes.

“Yes, he has no life force now, he’s dead.” Alicia walked to Sirin’s side and put her hand on Sirin’s shoulder. “He died without regrets, so don’t be too sad. You couldn’t save him, but you can still save others.”

Looking into Alicia's eyes, Sirin remained silent for a moment before nodding firmly. She clenched her fists, never before feeling such a heavy responsibility.

She can definitely do it! Celine encouraged herself in her heart.

When Celia saw Sirin's determined look, a satisfied smile appeared on her face, and she nodded slightly. It was time to test the training results.

"Cirin, let's split up. The weapons they prepared for me are still in the main tent. I need to go get them."

“But… wouldn’t it be a bit too dangerous?” Upon hearing this, Xilin frowned.

"Don't worry, there won't be any danger. Beautiful girls have a lot of power~ You can rest assured." Alicia said with a smile, patting Sirin's shoulder.

Seeing the smile on Alicia's face, Sirin nodded after a moment. She believed that Alicia would be alright, and that Alicia really should fight on her own sometime; it was an essential part of her growth.

"That's all for now~ See you later." Alicia chuckled and ran towards the main tent, her nimble figure disappearing from Sirin's sight in an instant.

After Alicia left, only Sirin remained. Sirin took a deep breath to calm her tense emotions, while the sounds of explosions, shouts of battle, and the roars of Honkai Beasts echoed in her ears.

Sirin turned around resolutely, transformed into her Herrscher form, and soared into the air, floating in mid-air. Standing high above, she had a clear and unobstructed view of the situation below.

The area is littered with the remains of Honkai Beasts and the corpses of humans. People are still fighting and battling the Honkai Beasts, and more Honkai Beasts are constantly pouring in from afar. If an area-of-effect attack is launched now, the people in this area will surely die from the piercing of the Void Spear.

She had to find a way to gather the Honkai Beasts and get the rest of the people to retreat. Gathering the Honkai Beasts was easy, but getting the people to retreat was difficult. After all, no one would listen to her, and her voice wasn't enough to reach everyone's ears.

It seems the only option is to launch targeted attacks from the air and see if we can eliminate some of the Honkai Beasts that are entangled with those people.

As Sirin thought this, a helpless expression appeared on her face. Although it was a bit troublesome, it was still a method. It was just that the Honkai Beasts constantly surging in from over there were a bit annoying. After thinking for a moment, the corners of Sirin's mouth turned up slightly. Fortunately, the concentration of Honkai energy here was very high. Perhaps she could do this...

Before long, the soldiers who were still fighting bravely on the battlefield saw a very shocking scene: a long and narrow boulder appeared in the sky. It was more like a small mountain than a boulder, as it was tall, large and long.

Such a huge thing appeared at an altitude of thousands of meters. Although it was very high, it was visible to the naked eye because of its enormous size. Correspondingly, on the ground, a huge crater appeared around the entire camp, with a width of thirty or forty meters and a depth estimated to be more than fifty meters.

At this moment, Sirin is constantly activating her powers high in the sky. A large amount of Honkai energy is pouring into her body. The long, narrow mountain in the sky is her way of teleporting a part of the ground into the sky. However, this is still quite strenuous for her now, and the Honkai energy in her body is being consumed rapidly.

Sirin kept her eyes fixed on the Honkai Beasts below, and with a wave of her hand, she threw the narrow hill that had just risen into the air towards the group of Honkai Beasts in the distance.

The enormous hill, carrying an unstoppable momentum, crashed towards the ground under the force of gravity. The hill blocked out the sky, creating an apocalyptic scene that filled everyone present with fear.

The powerful force shook the ground, raising a cloud of dust. The deafening roar vibrated everyone's eardrums, and some even experienced tinnitus. The roar even drowned out the thunder in the sky.

Even though the attack only lasted a few minutes from start to finish, it left an incredibly deep impression on everyone, and the godlike purple figure in the sky was deeply imprinted in their hearts.

Whether they were fighting the Honkai Beasts or had already defeated them, they all turned their gazes toward Sirin in the sky. They understood that the attack that had just created an apocalyptic scene was caused by this girl in the sky.

Fear involuntarily filled their eyes. Could this godlike ability really be achieved by humans?

A large number of Honkai Beasts died under this powerful attack. The force of the attack and the huge crater also slowed down the Honkai Beasts' surging offensive.

However, the main factor was the aura of the Herrscher that Sirin emitted when she fully activated her Herrscher powers. Even though Sirin was not the master of these Honkai Beasts, it still served as a deterrent.

Xilin wiped away non-existent beads of sweat from her forehead, her chest heaving. Looking at the mess on the ground below, she could hardly believe that her attack had caused it. An expression of utter surprise appeared on her face, and a smile appeared on her lips. It seemed she was quite strong after all.

Sirin, panting slightly in mid-air, was already feeling somewhat exhausted, but the Honkai energy she had lost was being rapidly replenished. After a moment, Sirin turned her gaze to the remaining Honkai beasts in the camp, her eyes turning cold. It was time to clean them up.

Sirin stretched out her hand, and several Void Spears appeared behind her.

The surviving soldiers in the camp felt uneasy when they saw the girl who had unleashed that divinely punishing attack looking in their direction. If she turned against them, none of them would be able to leave here alive today.

A moment later, they realized that the girl with godlike power was not attacking them, but the group of Honkai Beasts. The once invincible Honkai Beasts were as fragile as paper, pierced through in an instant. No matter how tall and powerful they were, they died without even a howl.

This girl is helping them! Who exactly is she? This question inevitably arose in the minds of these people, but apart from Alicia, no one here knew.

When all the Honkai Beasts in the camp were eliminated, Sirin breathed a sigh of relief. She glanced at the ground and had to admit that the feeling of standing on high ground was wonderful; the people below looked like ants.

Xilin exhaled a breath of stale air, and the tension in her heart eased considerably. She was beginning to adapt to the battlefield.

After sensing the remaining Honkai energy within the Herrscher core, Sirin flew forward and looked at the Honkai beasts hesitating in the distance. As she moved forward, the Honkai beasts couldn't help but let out shrill howls, as if they were afraid.

So, these Honkai Beasts are afraid of her? Well, that's fine, at least they won't run around like that.

Sirin chuckled softly, looking down at the densely packed Honkai Beasts below. Alicia was right; she could do it. At that moment, Sirin felt an overwhelming sense of confidence.

She closed her eyes and then suddenly opened them again. Sirin raised her right hand, and at the same time, a ring of spatial portals appeared in the sky above the battlefield. Roughly estimated, there were at least several hundred of them.

Sirin's eyes were icy cold. With a thought, countless Void Spears emerged from these spatial portals.

The howling wind brushed against Sirin's face, and the raging thunder roared above. At this moment, Sirin was like a majestic god!

At that moment, a crisp snap of fingers rang out, and time and space seemed to stand still.

This is the time of judgment!

Hundreds and thousands of Void Spears, carrying an unstoppable momentum, pierced the Honkai Beast's enormous body. The sharp Void Spears easily pierced the Honkai Beast's hard shell, ending its life, while a large number of Void Spears continued to pour out from the spatial portal.

On the battlefield, the pitiful howls of Honkai Beasts continued one after another. Even the top-tier lower-rank Honkai Beasts could not escape death. In particular, the Void Spear would self-destruct after piercing their bodies, causing double-area damage. Even if they survived the first round, there was no way they could survive the second round.

This place is like hell for Honkai Beasts, no, it's even more terrifying than hell!
