"Just a joke, haha. You looked so serious just now, did something happen, Hua?"
"Captain, what if a teammate suddenly loses consciousness and can't tell friend from foe?"
Himiko thought about it.
"What to do? End her life, of course."
"Ah? Is this the only way?"
Himiko replied seriously.
"Listen carefully, Hua. I understand why you ask this question. I believe you also know about Kevin's situation. Once a comrade loses consciousness and becomes a monster... or even a Herrscher, her life must be ended immediately. The Herrscher must never be trusted. I believe you don't want to see the price that the Herrscher of Death brought us a second time."
Then Himiko looked at Hua and gently touched her head.
"If I lose consciousness and turn into a monster that can't distinguish friend from foe, Hua, can you promise to let me be free?"
Hua was in mixed feelings and didn't know what to say.
"I……"
"I believe in you, Hua. You're a good kid, and you'll be a hero someday."
"No, I'm just a warrior who is good at following others and has no opinion of my own."
"No, Hua. You are gentle, strong, and kind. You are much stronger than you think. So, promise me?"
Hua asked back.
"What if I become a Herrscher, Captain?"
"No, I'm here to protect you. Nothing can hurt you. As the captain, it's my duty to protect the team members."
Hua pouted.
"What kind of answer is this..."
Himiko smiled and patted Hua on the back.
"Well, I think you've almost recovered, Hua. You're complaining now. Let's hurry back, or Carol and the others will be worried."
Hua nodded.
"Ah."
What if Juexi's "prophecy" is not accurate? Hua also temporarily put aside his worries and returned to the battlefield with Himiko.
……
After chopping down several Honkai beasts with the greatsword, Himiko patted her chest, made a thumbs-up gesture, and said in a relaxed manner.
"I don't know why, but I don't feel tired no matter how many Honkai beasts I kill today. It seems that my sword is still sharp~"
Carol was also the first to flatter.
"Yes, yes. Captain Himiko is the best. And you are very young, not an old man."
Himiko walked happily to Carol with a big sword in her hand and patted Carol's shoulder with her other hand.
"Carol, you are still the best at talking."
Carol felt a little pain in her shoulder, but she still chuckled twice. After all, her captain was very strong. At this time, their communicator suddenly rang.
"Team Three, hurry back. An extremely powerful Houkai energy reaction suddenly occurred at your location."
Everyone looked around in confusion, but there was nothing.
Hua Ze suddenly remembered Jue Xi's words, and bad thoughts gradually fermented in his heart. Could it be... that the captain is really going to become a Herrscher?
Hua looked at Himiko and said with some fear.
"Captain, your sword..."
When Himiko heard Hua's words, she looked down at her sword.
The greatsword was slowly melting, and her hands were also glowing red.
Hua immediately came to the two of them, grabbed Carol and began to retreat. Himiko rubbed her eyes in disbelief. Then she found that the sword in her hand had returned to its original state and did not melt and disappear like before.
Himiko exhaled a breath, looked up and said happily.
"Hua, you are dazzled. Look, nothing happened, right?"
"magnificent……"
……
From Himiko's perspective, there were only the "death warriors" around her... Himiko suddenly became serious, and she raised her sword towards the "death warriors".
"Where are my teammates?!"
……
In the eyes of Hua and many teammates, the captain's long hair that was originally tied up had been spread out, one of her eyes was flashing red light, and the big sword in her hand had already melted... At this time, there was only a flickering flame in her hand. And with her words just now, the temperature in the air seemed to be burning.
The deputy captain of the team frowned. She glanced at the people standing around in a daze and spoke immediately.
"Run quickly, the captain has become a Herrscher!"
After saying that, she immediately picked up the gun and pointed it at Himiko, her captain. But she looked hesitant and hesitated to pull the trigger.
……
Himiko looked at the "death warrior" who was drawing his bow and trying to shoot an arrow at her and smiled disdainfully. Then he came to her side in an instant. Himiko was also a little surprised that her body suddenly felt so light. However, she did not hesitate and swung her sword immediately.
.........
Himiko felt dazed after swinging the sword, and then, when she looked at the assassin in front of her, the assassin turned out to be her deputy captain, whose body was pierced by her hand and began to burn rapidly.
"what!"
Himiko screamed and immediately let go, then looked down at her hand. There was only blood on her hand...
The sword had long disappeared, leaving only the hands emitting heat. Himiko touched her body in panic, and then seemed to touch something. She took out a small mirror and looked at herself in the mirror, with one eye flashing a terrifying red light...
She glanced at her teammates in the distance, and they were looking at her with nothing but fear in their eyes.
Himiko thought, where is Hua? Hua... When she looked at Hua, what did she read in his eyes? Disappointment? Disdain?
Himiko smiled and then lowered her head and muttered to herself.
"No, it won't. Hua won't look at me like that. That's not Hua. If I become a Herrscher, Hua will only feel sad when looking at me, and won't despise himself. This is not my teammate! That's right, Hua won't look at me like that. It must be an illusion given to me by the Herrscher. Didn't the communication just say that? There is a strong reaction of Honkai energy around. There must be a new Herrscher. This Herrscher can use illusions, right? You can't fool me. You damn 'death warriors' actually dared to become my teammates. You are dead."
When Himiko finished saying this, her eyes were flashing with a strange red light.
"laugh"
And, Hua. The look in her eyes was indeed filled with sadness and grief...
……
After a moment, the former teammates fell to the ground, and Hua stood in front of Carol again.
However, as Himiko waved her hand, the great sword made of fire did not immediately take Hua's life. Hua felt the burning of the fire and looked up at Himiko with some doubt.
"team leader……"
Himiko couldn't hear Hua's voice, but she was a little confused. Why would a "death warrior" protect another "death warrior"?
After the battle just now, she also realized that her physical fitness was surprisingly good. If this "death warrior" showed the desire to attack her, she could kill her immediately.
Therefore, Himiko did not immediately take the life of the "death warrior" in front of her, but stopped.
Time seemed to stand still, and Himiko became more and more uneasy. She shook her head. She felt that the problem seemed to be with herself. She was not a girl who loved beauty, so why did she carry a mirror with her?
"laugh"
Himiko seemed to wake up. She looked over again. The "death warrior" in front of her had become Hua. She was also protecting Carol, and the "death warriors" lying around in a mess seemed to be her own team members...
Himiko laughed at herself, then asked with a wry smile.
"Heh, so, Hua, I became a Herrscher, right?"
Hua was a little surprised, but said excitedly.
"Captain, are you recovered? Are you still conscious?"
Himiko closed her eyes. She didn’t dare to look at Hua again. After hearing Hua’s reply, she could confirm that this was not an illusion.
"Give me a happy ending, Hua. Please, fulfill my wish."
"I'm sorry, Captain. I, can't do it."
Himiko felt her consciousness becoming increasingly blurred, and her head ached. A voice calling for the extermination of humanity came into her mind, and Himiko realized that she was about to lose control again, so she waved her hand and sent a wave of air flying, knocking Hua and Carol away.
When she looked up, she saw Hua's eyes. They were full of sadness... She was really not a competent captain. She was sorry for letting the team members make such a heavy choice.
Himiko smiled with the same expression she had when she comforted Hua this morning.
"Live..."
In order to avoid losing control and killing the last team member, Himiko ran in the opposite direction of Hua and Carol. Hua fell to the ground and watched the captain gradually go away.
"no, do not want."
Hua stood up exhausted, looked at the captain who had disappeared, and then looked at Carol who was unconscious on the ground. After hesitating for a long time, she picked up the communicator.
"This is Hua from the third squad. Our captain seems to have turned into a Herrscher. Requesting support."
……
Fire, all you can see is an endless expanse of red. The flames seem to never go out, surrounding everything. Australia at this moment is like "hell on earth"!
The actual footage transmitted via satellite was just there. Australia at this moment had completely fallen. The top leaders of the Fire Moth watched the video in silence. Could humans really contend with such a force?
Mei slapped the table to break the silence.
"Everyone, Dr. Mobius's research is going well. This level of destructive power is indeed difficult to deal with, but it is not impossible, and we are not at the point of giving up on ourselves. Dr. Mobius has recently made a major breakthrough in the technology of extracting Honkai energy DNA. I propose that the DNA of Honkai beasts be integrated into the human body to create a 'super soldier' who has a natural resistance to Honkai energy and a physique far superior to that of humans. I name this plan the 'Fusion Warrior' plan, and whoever agrees, whoever disagrees."
Everyone began to whisper, and one of the conservative doctors raised a question.
"If this plan succeeds and superhumans with superhuman powers are created, how should we manage them? Are they still considered human? And who should be the first lucky winner of this 'Fusion Warrior'?"
Before May could say anything, Mebius retorted.
"Doctor, you are old. Blindly adhering to conventions will only accelerate the extinction of mankind. The Herrschers are getting stronger and stronger. If we don't do this, the human race will be completely annihilated in history. I think this is the evolution of mankind!"
Dr. Mobius was not liked by the other doctors to begin with, and the conservative doctor immediately fought back.
