Once again, that familiar, nostalgic feeling emerged.
Fu hua pondered as she floated in the air, observing the hesitant Elysia and the belated arrival of Mobius.
The heart of the Immortal Phoenix surged with sudden emotions as she blinked, contemplating the reason behind it.
Since invading Luo Lin's mind, Fu Hua had experienced déjà vu almost as many times as the sum of the past few hundred years.
Perhaps it was because this was the consciousness space, and the memories burned away by Fenghuang Down were not completely erased. There were always some fragments left scattered deep in the mind. Perhaps these remnants of memory became a part of the space without her knowledge, manifesting themselves.
"Don't just stand there! Follow me!"
"Oh, right..."
Elysia obediently let Mobius lead her away, reassessing this former colleague. At least here, she didn't seem as "childish" as she did in the Elysian Realm, exuding a mature and intellectual charm.
"Griseo!"
Mobius shouted loudly, and a disheveled blue-haired loli crawled out of the dust. She was also dragging a pink-haired fox-eared girl by the head, apparently just digging them out of the ruins.
"Auntie Mobius... Sakura's sword broke."
Upon hearing this, Elysia's mind suddenly went blank.
"The Key of Sanction, Seven Thunders of Retribution... broke?"
Fortunately, Griseo quickly showed the broken weapon, and although it obviously wasn't an ordinary item, it wasn't the Divine Key either. This reassured the Pink Elf, whose mind finally settled down.
"Just an ordinary fine sword! With the financial resources of Eden, making one is easy!"
Wait a minute, with such strange circumstances here, is Eden still around? Since Mobius, Griseo, and Sakura are here, then is the rest of the Flamechasers also...?
Elysia quickly realized this, but her thoughts were interrupted by the distant sound of thunderous roar, causing the Pink Elf to tighten her bow.
"Where's Dr. Mei?" Mobius asked.
"Dr. Mei has become very strange. She... she seems to have charged forward with a sword..."
Elysia & Mobius: ?
Is it the "Blank Key"?
Elysia speculated, bending down and instructing Griseo, "Griseo, you take Sakura back, we'll go support the front!"
"Okay! Be careful!"
The blue-haired loli led the fox-eared girl away, leaving a clear trace in the ruins.
Boom!
Another explosion. Elysia and Mobius quickened their pace, heading towards the direction of the sound.
Soon, they arrived at their destination, but the scene before them left both of them speechless.
"Mei...?"
The battle between Raiden Mei and the Herrscher of Thunder had been going on for some time. Now, the scales of victory had completely tipped in favor of Mei.
Fulminata Striker' attacks was straightforward, and the girl quickly understood its intricacies, attempting to change the fixed moves or use her family's swordsmanship to launch light blades.
Mei's attempts were very successful. She even felt that her family's swordsmanship had undergone a miraculous chemical reaction when encountering the Honkai Energy, and some of the flashy moves she thought were useless displayed terrifying power under the influence of the Honkai Energy.
This made Mei suspect whether the Raiden family's swordsmanship was just a set of sword moves used in conjunction with the Honkai Energy, but there were no longer any characters in the family who could manipulate the Honkai Energy...
Poor supernatural swordsmanship, reduced to a "somewhat flashy but not practical" swordsmanship in the mouths of the family members.
Mei felt it was a pity just thinking about it, but soon she cheered up and swung her sword harder at the Herrscher of Thunder—after all, this was a great opponent. If she wanted to revive the extraordinary heritage of the Raiden clan, she had to seize the time to understand everything about the Honkai.
The girl was pondering about revitalizing her family when she was unaware that she was actually an important member of one of the top three extraordinary organizations in the world.
The Herrscher of Thunder's uncontrollable anger was evident. She couldn't ignore that Mei was distracted during their battle, but her angry blow was intercepted by a pink arrow and crimson flames flying from afar.
"Don't get distracted!"
Mei was scared out of her wits by the Herrscher of Thunder's sudden attack during her distraction and hurriedly nodded, "I know."
Siegfried used the corner of his eye to see the towering figure of the pink silhouette and whistled, "Reinforcements are here."
With that, the white-haired man continued to duel with the Herrscher of Thunder using the Cleave or Shamash. The exhausted Herrscher of Thunder, with a loss of a large amount of energy, felt an overwhelming emptiness leading to frequent mistakes.
Siegfried had several opportunities to wield the Divine Keys and pierce the Herrscher's heart in one go or even decapitate her, but he didn't do so. He just tangled with the Herrscher of Thunder, assisting Mei's main attack.
He wanted to see Mei completely seize the Herrscher's authority!
"Judgement of Shamash! Kevin? No... is that, Kevin's descendant? And why not just kill the Herrscher directly... Oh? Mei is absorbing the Herrscher's energy?! Is that the ability of her new armor?"
Elysia was also uncertain, but the current situation did not allow her to delve into the secrets behind it. So, the pink elf started to bend her bow, ready to shoot, and maintained the rhythm of attacking along with Mei.
Mobius also noticed some clues, sighed deeply, and said, "I'm not as good as Mei in this aspect." Then she joined the ranks of assistance.
With the help of the two powerful reinforcements, the Herrscher of Thunder was unable to make any waves anymore. The red armguard flew somewhere unknown, and finally, Mei completely drained the Herrscher's energy, causing her to Honkai to the ground.
The Herrscher of Thunder, with her blue-purple hair, raised her head, gazing at Mei whose pupils were shining with blue and white lightning. "Raiden Mei, do you think you have truly conquered this power?"
"I only know that I defeated you."
With that, Raiden Mei raised the Dawnbreaker Talwar, twisting her wrist, and the blade pierced into the Herrscher's heart.
The Herrscher squinted, whispering softly, "We will meet again."
In the next moment, the Herrscher turned into bright Honkai Energy dots, all of which were completely absorbed by Raiden Mei.
"Phew... Thank you all."
"You're welcome, Dr. Mei. Are you interested in explaining to me what's going on with this armor of yours?" Elysia leaned in curiously, touching the outer coat of the Fulminata Striker.
"Well, let's talk about it later. Have you seen Kiana?"
"She's over there!"
Mobius reached out, and Mei saw the white furball supporting her mother standing up. Cecilia seemed to have received proper treatment, and everything was moving in a positive direction...
Huh?
"Luo Lin! Luo Lin! What's happening to your body?!" 'Fu Hua' widened her eyes, quietly reminding.
"Um, huh?" She lowered her head, watching the disguise of "Cecilia" violently fluctuate, seemingly unable to withstand the pressure, shattering under the astonished gaze of everyone, revealing the true form with black hair.
"Mom?"
At this moment, Kiana's head throbbed painfully, and her eyes, golden in color, suddenly lit up.
"Liars! Liars liars liars liars liars liars liars liars!!!!!!"
The distant cry of the purple-haired girl sounded so helpless, so desperate...
So lonely.
"Once again! You've deceived me!!!!!!"
