The swords collided, making a sharp sound. Su Jue stood where he was while Otto stepped back half a meter.

However, the long sword created by the silk thread was still far inferior to the Key of God. After the violent collision, the long sword had cracks. Su Jue did not care. The long sword turned into silk thread again and reassembled a new weapon.

Watching Su Jue change his weapons, Otto’s expression changed slightly. Void Wanzang was a mimicked Key of God, which Su Jue could not possibly possess, but now the other party had shown a similar ability.

Could it be creation?

With doubts in his heart, Otto held the sword and collided with Su Jue again. At the moment of this collision, the Mimic Skyfire suddenly transformed into Judas, and countless chains tightly bound Su Jue’s weapon. The power of restraint burst out, and it actually briefly controlled the long sword.

But before Otto could relax, he saw Su Jue on the opposite side actually gave up the sword and swung his right fist, hitting Otto’s left soul steel face hard.

“…”

Why doesn’t this person have martial ethics?

328 Meteoric Ice

“cough.”

His figure flew backwards, and blood came out of the corner of his mouth. Otto was a little dizzy from Su Jue’s sudden punch. He pressed his forehead with one hand, barely maintaining the stability of his projection consciousness.

Before he could catch his breath, a sharp wind sounded from his side. He quickly raised his arms, and the heavy blow immediately spread throughout his body.

The defending arm was obviously deformed by Su Jue’s kick. If it had not been forged entirely from soul steel, it would have been shattered by now.

As the Bishop of Heaven’s Fate for 500 years, Leoto has not personally taken action many times, but this does not mean that he is weak. On the contrary, with the Void Ten Thousand Treasures, his strength is comparable to the top S-level. And with his wisdom, even the Herrscher may not be able to defeat him.

However, Su Jue’s sudden change of tactics was somewhat beyond his expectations. After realizing that the opponent was not dependent on weapons, Otto decisively changed the form of the Key of God, transforming into a mimic of Black Abyss and White Flower. While the White Flower healed itself, Black Abyss stabbed Su Jue.

However, facing the deadly erosion of the Black Abyss, Su Jue only raised his eyebrows slightly, grabbed the tip of the gun with one hand, and clenched his fingertips forcefully, and the Mimic Black Abyss made a miserable twisting sound.

A month ago in the Pacific War, Su Jue successfully escaped the surveillance of the Honkai Will, and his own strength was no longer limited. Because of this, with nearly a hundred puppets amplified, Su Jue’s strength was close to that of normal Kevin.

Now that so much time has passed, the number of puppets has been growing steadily. With the addition of special puppets like Eden Padre, the number has exceeded two hundred.

Although he did not receive the core of the Law of Reason, some of the powers of the Law of Reason were real. Coupled with the complete Taixu Sword Qi he learned, his overall strength almost doubled.

Even though he doesn’t have much chance of winning against the demon Kevin, it’s a bit wishful thinking for Otto to stop him just by using his soul steel body.

The mimicry of the Black Abyss was ineffective. In order to prevent the Void Ten Thousand Treasures from being destroyed, Otto could only temporarily recycle it. He looked at the gray-haired boy opposite him, feeling a strong sense of helplessness.

As expected, the so-called Herrscher of Fire is just a disguise.

Moreover, it was said at the beginning that he would not live long, but that sickly young man now looks as if he is well-refreshed and does not look weak at all.

“Hmm?” Thinking of this, Otto frowned and subconsciously looked in the direction of Kiana.

“So that’s how it is. For a Herrscher, emotion is not only a poison, but also an antidote?” Nodding thoughtfully, Otto turned his attention back to the battle with Su Jue.

He was smart enough to see that Su Jue had the intention to kill but didn’t mean to. Otto didn’t think that what he did could be forgiven by the other party. The only possibility was that he couldn’t die yet.

And the only bargaining chip he has is probably fate.

Negotiations require bargaining chips, and Otto doesn’t mind being used as part of the bargaining chips. However, if he is defeated so easily by the other party, it may not be conducive to the negotiations.

There was no panic in his emerald green eyes. Even though Su Jue’s attacks were overwhelming, Otto was trying his best to resolve them.

Just as Otto was about to be defeated, a golden barrier suddenly burst out and completely enveloped the two of them.

“The authority to restrain?” Su Jue stopped.

“That’s right, Judas’s Oath’s rated power zero, the Divine Grace Barrier, all the Honkai energy within the barrier is invalidated.” Su Jue’s attack stopped, Otto breathed a sigh of relief, and explained patiently.

“Is that so?” As soon as Su Jue finished speaking, he punched the barrier directly. The Divine Grace Barrier did not break, but there were obviously several more cracks.

The smile on Otto’s face was a little stiff. What about the promise that all the destruction could be invalidated?

Of course, Otto is not an ignorant man. He can still shatter the Divine Grace barrier without using Honkai energy. This kind of existence is very rare, but it does not mean that it does not exist. After all, it is only a barrier against Honkai energy. If the physical strength exceeds the scope of the Key of God, it is not impossible to break through the barrier by brute force alone.

“Ha, it seems that I still underestimated Mr. Su Jue’s strength.” Otto was really helpless now. He couldn’t beat him, and he couldn’t trap him.

“…”Facing Otto who raised his hands in surrender, Su Jue did not say anything.

He was confident in his own strength and believed that Otto could not defeat him. However, since he dared to show up in person, who could guarantee that Otto had not taken this into account?

After all, this man’s name is [Otto Apokalis].

As if to confirm the meaning of the name, in an instant, the sky, which had originally returned to clearness, suddenly fell into darkness. The pitch-black sky enveloped the entire coral island, as if falling into a bottomless abyss.

At the same time, the two Herrscher cores that had disappeared before actually flew in the opposite direction into the thick darkness, like falling stars, returning to the dead silent night sky again.

In an instant, the temperature, which had been gradually warming up, suddenly dropped by dozens of degrees, even exceeding the cold wave created by the Ice Herrscher. This time, the range directly covered hundreds of kilometers, and the civilians who had evacuated in time and were relatively safe had no resistance at all and were swept away by the spreading cold wave.

“It’s so cold.” Even the Valkyrie of the Snow Lotus Team felt extremely cold all over, not to mention the ordinary civilians who were wearing thin clothes.

Some of those with poor resistance could not hold on for more than a few seconds before falling to the ground and falling into a coma. Even those with strong bodies would not be able to survive in temperatures of over 100 degrees below zero.

Wuliangta Jizi frowned, and through the authority left by Su Jue, she lit the bonfire that had previously assisted Kiana in using the firewood. But this could only alleviate the situation. As long as the low temperature lasted for half an hour, none of the millions of people on the coral island would survive.

“What on earth happened?” Ji Zi looked at the two [stars] in the sky anxiously, but as a Valkyrie she could not notice anything. She could only pray that Su Jue and Kiana could successfully resolve the crisis.

The intertwined binary stars merge into the darkness, slowly approaching each other.

The collapsed energy that escaped from the core emitted arc-shaped streams of light, as if being pulled by some special force and slowly merging.

Until finally, the two completely different cores devoured each other and merged into one in a unique way.

The moment the fusion was completed, terrifying collapse energy exploded instantly, and the surrounding ocean seemed to be pulled up by an invisible force, forming a tsunami tens of meters high that poured into the coral island.

The broken ice and sea water almost shattered the already shaky coral island, and the artificially cast buildings fell into the deep sea, while some broken debris were rising.

These residues turned into light particles and slowly gathered towards the fusion core, eventually merging into a gigantic figure that was nearly a hundred meters tall.

“what is that!”

Just looking at this shadow, both ordinary people and Rita, who had just arrived near the coral island, felt a chill in their hearts, and a strong sense of uneasiness filled their hearts.

329 transactions

The Herrscher born from darkness appeared as a quiet girl, with flawless white hair falling like a waterfall and a gorgeous white skirt that was noble and pure, just like Anna’s original image.

However, it was obvious that the new Herrscher had long since left the realm of humanity. Under her skirt was a dark and cold mechanical structure, and the whole thing was wrapped in a deep blue flower of extreme cold.

A bizarre hour hand like a sword blade emerged from the void, as if counting down the time of fate. The ice candle that was once shattered by Kiana turned into an even more peculiar lantern, quietly floating beside the special Herrscher.

It is obvious that this special Herrscher was created by fusion of Anna and Chen Tianwu as the basic images.

Apart from this unique shape, what makes people feel terrified is the majestic figure that looks like the collapse of the heavens and the falling of stars.

The Herrscher of Meteoric Ice, a fusion of the Law of Ice and the Law of Stars, is nearly a hundred meters tall. Its mere existence and the shadow it casts are enough to make people feel hopeless.

Even the ancient civilizations that had conducted highly thorough research on the Herrschers had never mentioned the fusion of the Herrscher cores, let alone the phenomenon of the birth of a new Herrscher after devouring each other’s power.

The newly formed Meteoric Ruler does not have any human emotions, nor is there any possibility of betrayal. It will only faithfully carry out the will of the Honkai to destroy humanity.

She opened her arms as if to embrace the sky.

But as she moved, one of the two small island bases of the coral island seemed to be grasped by some terrifying force and broke into pieces bit by bit.

The metal structure on the artificial island made a sharp twisting sound, and the sand, gravel and cement that filled it shattered. The entire island with an area of ​​dozens of kilometers was forcibly shattered into pieces by the Meteoric Ice Ruler and slowly sank into the sea.

Land-level destructive power!

All members of the Undying Blade team who observed this scene were trembling with fear. The only one who remained calm was Rita. She subconsciously clenched her sickle with a serious look in her eyes.

Void Bank preserved the combat information of pre-civilized humans against the Herrschers. Otto stored these records in the Destiny Archives and provided them to Valkyries with sufficient authority. Therefore, Rita is also one of the Valkyries who has an intuitive understanding of the combat power of the Herrschers.

Although the Indestructible Blade had just arrived, just by looking at the damage caused by the Herrscher, Rita actually guessed the possible power of the Herrscher. The information clearly stated that the previous generation of the Herrscher of Rock was a terrifying existence that sank an entire continent.

“Deputy Captain, what should we do?” Alvette got as close to Rita as possible, as if she could only feel a little safe by staying with her.

“Land the battleship on the sea surface and wait for orders.”

“But…” Alvette lowered her head and hugged the electronic version to her chest, hiding the faint golden light in her eyes.

Alvette didn’t say it explicitly, but Rita knew she was referring to the rescue work for civilians. The Undying Blades were all special Valkyries with strong wills, and they would not back down even when facing the Herrscher. Now the Herrscher was wreaking havoc, but they could only wait. What was the difference between this and watching civilians die in front of their own eyes?

Sighing, Rita said softly, “I know the mission of the Valkyrie is to protect the people, but the combat order was issued by the headquarters. The Bishop must be aware of the situation on the coral island. Since he has conveyed the order to stand by, there must be other ways to deal with it.”

“It is the duty of a Valkyrie to follow orders. Acting on one’s own will only disrupt the overall plan. Alvette, you should be very clear about this.”

“Yes.” Alvette stood up straight and trotted away, leaving Rita standing alone at the bow.

“…”

“First you let Lady Bianca evacuate, and then you deliberately delayed the time for the Immortal Blade to join the battle. Bishop, what is your purpose?” Rita muttered to herself, gazing at the Herrscher of Meteoric Ice in the sky.

Seven years ago, Ragnar, Rita’s most important mentor, died in the operation to capture Siegfried. Although fate attributed it to the enemy’s strength, Rita learned through clues that the reason why Ragnar’s team was annihilated was that Otto hid a key piece of information – K423.

Because of this, Rita actually doubts Otto’s orders.

However, she is still the Valkyrie of Destiny after all. Even if many things Otto does are not so righteous, Rita, who has long been accustomed to [cleaning], also understands that the world cannot be spotless. Even her own hands are stained with a lot of dirty blood, not to mention Otto who holds Destiny.

“Now is not the time to clean up.”

……

“Is this what you call a deal?” Inside the Divine Grace barrier, Su Jue’s expression was extremely gloomy. The changes in the Ice Rock Herrscher’s core did not escape his perception. However, the changes lasted too short a time, and with the Divine Grace barrier blocking him, he had no time to stop it.

“Of course, you can consider it as part of the deal.” Having achieved his goal, Otto showed his usual frivolous smile on his face. Especially after the Ice Ruler was formed, the smile on this guy’s face looked more and more annoying.

For Otto, it doesn’t really matter whether the Divine Grace Barrier can trap Su Jue. He leads Su Jue into the trap he carefully laid out. His purpose is not to defeat Su Jue, but to use the Divine Grace Barrier’s interference with Honkai energy to prevent Su Jue from sensing changes in the outside world, thereby allowing the Herrscher to be born smoothly.

Whether it was Xukong Wanzang’s desperate obstruction or personally controlling Hun Gang’s body to fight Su Jue, it was just to buy as much time as possible.

The reason why he arranged it so complicated was that even though he had thought highly of Su Jue, Su Jue’s strength was still far beyond his expectations. Otto was not sure that he could hold on until the Herrscher was formed, so he had to use this method.

As if knowing that he could not leave safely, Otto spread his hands without any intention of resisting.

The Meteoric Lawrence is the real content of the transaction and also Otto’s bargaining chip.

“You should know what this thing will bring. As the Bishop of Heaven’s Destiny, you actually sacrificed millions of lives without hesitation. Should I say you are crazy?”

The birth of the Icefall Herr is irreversible, and even if Su Jue breaks the Divine Grace barrier at this moment, he can’t save the situation. He looked up at Otto with a strong anger on his face, as if he was questioning Otto’s actions on behalf of the innocent people.

“Only crazy people can glimpse God. Without enough chips, God will not choose to come to the world, and I cannot seek answers from God.” Facing Su Jue’s questioning, Otto was very calm.

“Besides, you should be more familiar with the collapsed gods than I am.”

The will of collapse.

Although his expression was filled with anger, Su Jue’s mind was quite clear. He was thinking about something, and he thought of Otto’s real goal.

Because of Su Jue’s calculations, the Star Law and Ice Law escaped from the control of the Honkai Will. Without the carrier of the Herrscher, the Honkai Will could only return to the imaginary space and wait for the next opportunity.

Otto noticed this, and in order to find a way to revive Kallen from the God of Honkai, he created a new Herrscher – the Herrscher of Meteoric Ice.

The deal the other party was talking about was not only a deal with him, but also a deal with the Will of Honkai, and the bargaining chip of the deal was the Meteoric Ice Ruler.

In exchange, Otto gets the opportunity to ask questions to the Honkai Will, and the Honkai Will can continue to interfere with the world through its real existence.

At the same time, as long as Kiana is still on the Coral Island, Su Jue will never give up this place. Otto uses this to delay Su Jue and complete the so-called transaction.

Su Jue looked at Otto opposite him and sighed deeply.

330 Game and Icefall

It has been less than 4 hours since the Coral Island incident, and only more than minutes since the arrival of the Honkai Will.

Being able to detect the confrontation between Su Jue and Honkai Will in such a short time, and using the Herrscher Core to simultaneously create a three-way confrontation, Otto, as the pinnacle of human intelligence in this era, demonstrated his due wisdom and means.

But even Otto, whose intelligence is almost demonic, is not truly omniscient and omnipotent.

His understanding of Su Jue is based on Tianming’s global intelligence network. By analyzing Su Jue’s behavioral logic after becoming a Herrscher, he has established a unique personality model.

This kind of analysis method can accurately grasp the character of the target and give corresponding countermeasures. But all of this must be based on the accuracy of the data.

Su Jue’s life before he became a Herrscher was very simple. Apart from his terrible family background, there was nothing special about him. Even if we add up his previous 17 years of life, we can only conclude that he was strong and optimistic, which is worthless data.

Therefore, if one wants to truly construct a model, one can only start analyzing from the time when Kiana appeared in Sky City and Su Jue gradually came into Tianming’s vision.

There is no doubt that Sky City showed decisiveness in holding the flaming sword against the army of Heavenly Fate, South African Laboratory showed strong personal feelings for Kiana, and Pacific sacrificed himself to pave the way for Kiana.

These are the basic elements that outline the image of an emotionally rich Herrscher, and Otto’s understanding of Su Jue is also inferred through this part of the personality model.

Otto chose to use the Herrscher of Meteoric Ice as a bargaining chip because Su Jue had shown his willingness to protect civilians many times. It is not incomprehensible that a Herrscher would protect civilians. Kiana, the Herrscher of the Void, is a typical example, and Su Jue, who is similar to her, is obviously also a similar Herrscher.

The more important the civilians are in Su Jue’s heart, the higher the bargaining chip of the Herrscher of Meteorite Ice.

“Why are you so angry? As a Herrscher, shouldn’t ordinary people be just a number to you?” Otto narrowed his eyes, deliberately provoking Su Jue’s emotions, and judging his character by analyzing Su Jue’s facial expressions. “Besides, you don’t look like a Herrscher of Fire right now.”

Even Otto, after being misled by false information, would try in the wrong direction. With some sighs in his heart, Su Jue’s face showed his unwillingness and anger after being calculated.
