"It better be this way."

Kiana, who had calmed down, glanced at the group of guys and didn't intend to waste any more time with them.

It was time for her to take the group of children hiding in the bushes to watch the fun home for dinner.

"I'm not happy to see you. Stop hanging around the river. Also, take all this trash away."

Kiana accidentally kicked the wine bottle after turning around and thought of the big river next to her. She suspected that these people might really drown her, so she reminded Kiana.

"Yes, yes, yes! We will definitely clean this place thoroughly and not leave any garbage behind!" The group of people who were completely sober echoed.

"It better be this way."

Kiana muttered and walked towards the bushes where the children were hiding, wanting to take the three little guys back to Zaohua Street.

But she hadn't taken a few steps when she suddenly felt a creepy sensation on her back.

Intuition sounded the body's alarm.

Kiana's body reacted faster than her brain. She turned around without hesitation and flew forward, crossing her arms in front of her to block the heavy blow.

Chapter 12 Power, I need power!

What a strong force.

What kind of monster is this?

Kiana blocked the attack that was aimed at the crowd, and her body was pressed down by the force, sliding on the ground and leaving two deep marks.

Let’s not talk about the physical pain for now.

Her heart was beating very fast as she stared at the octopus's leg that emerged from the river.

As thick as two arms.

There was slippery mucus on it.

"Hurry up and leave!"

Seeing that the guys she had knocked down looked terrified, Kiana roared in frustration.

The river boiled, and the octopus's legs retracted, revealing its true form. It wasn't a real octopus, but a monster resembling a humanoid figure, yet also resembling an octopus. It had over a dozen tentacles of varying thickness extending from its head and body, and several pairs of crimson, vertical pupils on its head.

"Strange, monster..."

The frightened people were so scared that their hands and feet became weak and they tried to crawl away, but Kiana withdrew her hand that had just blocked the attack without any fear and stared at the monster.

This is Izumo Province.

Therefore, this ugly monster in front of us should be one of the so-called eight million gods from Takama-ga-hara.

I just learned about the existence of the Eight Million Gods from Yaezakura today, and I encountered one here tonight.

It can jump out from any section of the river.

With these monsters so rampant, how does Changkong City maintain basic order? Few people even know of the existence of these ghosts and gods!

The arm she had just used to block was in great pain. Kiana calmed her breathing and said, "You go, take those kids with you. I'll cover you."

The ghost-like octopus let out a roar that was not like that of a normal creature, and the extra octopus legs on its body coiled in several directions.

Kiana nimbly dodged the octopus's legs that were rolling towards her, noting that it was not very fast, and was also trying to interfere with it from capturing other humans.

Driven by fear and the desire to survive, those people ran as fast as they could with adrenaline rushing through their bodies.

But there are also stupid people who trip themselves up.

"Ah, ah!!! Don't come near me! Save me, save me!"

The young man who fell down let out a terrified cry. Kiana noticed this and kicked the bottle at her feet towards his octopus legs.

The ghost did not show any other terrifying abilities, and its octopus legs were slightly deflected by the bottle she kicked out.

The young man tried to escape using his hands and feet.

But time cannot be stopped, and she does not have the power to destroy an octopus leg with one blow, so the ghost's octopus leg still entangled the young man, one leg wrapped around his heel and pulled him towards it, and the other leg firmly trapped his hands and body.

Without a weapon in hand, there is no way to cause any damage, let alone kill this ghost. Am I going to watch this monster kill a human being in front of my eyes?

No, she couldn't bear to watch people die!

She couldn't ignore the loss of life.

Just as Kiana was avoiding the octopus legs that were attacking her and was about to rush forward to rescue the young man, Mei's voice came from behind her like an illusion.

"Kiana! Catch the knife!"

"Mei?!"

Mei's voice controlled the excited Kiana, and she turned around in surprise to see the samurai sword flying towards her.

Not an illusion!

It really is Raiden Mei.

Her face was full of anxiety. Behind her were three children running towards the town, and several young men who had just crawled and escaped with all their might.

There was no time to wonder why Mei was here, with a knife on her.

Kiana jumped to catch the knife thrown by Mei, and rolled to the side to avoid another octopus leg that hit the place where she just stood.

He drew his sword and swung it at the ghost.

Silver light was unsheathed, and despite the strong resistance, she still cut off the blocking octopus legs, and held the knife to rescue the young man who was dragged to her side by the ghost.

These guys are not good people.

But he is not a death row prisoner who is guilty of heinous crimes.

She couldn't bear to watch a person being eaten by ghosts and gods in front of her eyes. As a normal person, she would not be indifferent to the passing of life when she had the power to save it!

"Put him down! You monster!"

Ignoring the pain in her hands, Kiana gripped the long knife tightly in her hand and cut off the octopus legs one after another.

With Kiana killing the octopus legs and taking away all the hatred of the ghost, the person who was entangled and dragged over by the ghost had a chance to breathe.

The octopus's legs were so tight that they seemed to be strangling him in two. His face turned purple and he cried out for help with a weak breath: "Help... Help..."

Blocked by one octopus leg after another, Kiana could not get close to the human form of the ghost, nor could she get close to the young man who was entangled by the ghost and tied above its human form.

This ghost has an extremely terrifying recovery ability. The octopus's legs can be restored to their original state the next second after being cut off.

"Kiana!"

Mei Raiden has arrived at the battlefield, and while Kiana was holding back most of the octopus legs' attacks, she rushed through the weak spot and reached the vicinity of the demon's body.

But she only had a knife with her.

After arriving at the right location, Mei didn't say anything else, just called Kiana.

Kiana understood what he meant and found an opportunity to throw the knife under the attack of the octopus' legs, then turned from offense to defense and fled under the attack of the ghosts and gods.

Mei caught the knife with sharp eyes. Unlike Kiana, who did not need to use brute force to cut off the octopus legs of the demon, her hands moved very smoothly.

In the chaos, Raiden Mei dodged the necessary attacks while cutting off the octopus' legs one after another at an extremely fast speed, breaking through the demon's defense and attacking its body at a very fast speed.

This should be what is called ghosts and gods.

Is this the kind of thing my father fights?

Mei, who was holding a knife and not injured, was much more powerful than Kiana. The bloodthirsty ghost no longer wanted to chase Kiana, and Kiana could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Mei... so strong!"

Her moves were smooth and her movements were continuous. Under the continuous attacks of ghosts and gods, her figure seemed to be dancing. I don't know when she will be able to become as powerful and calm as Mei.

With a flash of lightning, the blade cut off the octopus legs that bound the dying young man. Kiana, who had been following behind Mei, rushed forward and grabbed the man and pulled him back. When they reached a suitable distance, she threw him to a safe place.

Finally, all these people were cleared out.

Kiana stared at Mei who was approaching the demon but was in a stalemate with him without blinking.

"Is there no limit to this damn recovery ability?" There are hundreds of octopus legs on the ground!

This cannot continue.

If the ghost's super-speed recovery has no upper limit or restriction, Mei's physical strength will be exhausted sooner or later.

But Yae Sakura never told her how to deal with ghosts and gods!

She wanted to go over and help, but her hands, which had been injured several times today, were so painful that she couldn't lift them after just relaxing.

It’s really useless!

He actually failed at this time!

Kiana took a deep breath, looked at Mei who was still fighting, gritted her teeth and called up the system panel.

She needs strength.

We need the power to help Mei and save others!

"Hollow..."

Kiana stared at the summary column, then looked at Mei, and without hesitation, she reached out and chose to activate it.

This power will be used sooner or later.

“It’s not necessarily that scary.”

Summary: Your existence will bring about some unknown changes. After starting your journey, don't forget to always pay attention to the concentration of Honkai energy.

Her speed slowed due to the pain, and her heavy body was freed from its shackles. An endless stream of power surged from her body, giving her the illusion that her physical strength would never be exhausted. Beyond that, there was also a peculiar feeling.

You can feel the existence of another space and can freely transfer your body to that space anytime and anywhere.

The insignificant pain was no longer an obstacle for her, and Kiana clenched her fists to regain her strength.

“This is the complete me!”

She sighed for a moment at the feeling of having the Honkai energy, as if a machine that had run out of power was finally plugged in. She was no longer the same person she was just now.

Feeling her own strength, she rushed towards the ugly demon again, like a cannonball: "Mei, get out of the way!"

Mei Raiden didn't know what was happening to Kiana, but her trust in Kiana made her react immediately even though she didn't know what was happening behind her. She stopped attacking and dodged to the side.

Just as Mei moved aside, the white-haired ball rushed over, breaking the blockade of the tentacles at such a fast speed that it landed a punch on the ghost god, knocking the ghost god seven or eight meters away and hitting him in a pile of rocks, raising a large cloud of dust.

This is a strange power beyond human comprehension.

Kiana was extremely excited after she punched the octopus demon away, but when she thought about the price of her power, she felt a little complicated besides being excited.

So forget about it, just beat it!

She rushed into the pile of rocks again with her fists clenched.

"Next, it's my home court!"
