Miss Riddler just wants to level up quietly

"I don't know. I only know it in writing."

This is the truth. Ziyao’s understanding of pre-civilization is limited to the Eternal Paradise.

Moreover, her prophetic advantage was quickly gone.

Moving forward after the Quantum Sea incident, she has no idea what will happen next.

From the storyline of the elopement, we can vaguely understand that after that, a Herrscher appeared who could control the mind and distort cognition, messing up the entire destiny.

The annoying Thousand Herrschers only appear in advance from a certain small branch, and it stands to reason that they would not be encountered now.

Taking the initiative to meet is another matter.

The car stopped midway.

This is in the middle of a desolate road heading to the outskirts of the city.

Not far away there is a strange Honkai beast eating corpses. This is a strange thing in modern civilization.

Because Honkaimon only destroys and tramples on life, it does not eat like animals to maintain its own life.

After receiving instructions from MEI, the soldier in the back seat shot and killed the Honkai Beast.

The former immediately stepped forward, squatted down and checked the nameplate on the body, confirming that it was from the Logistics Department.

"Scan the surrounding ten kilometers and check for no signs of life."

Bronya shook her head and took advantage of the parking space to search her surroundings.

In fact, she took a cursory look ten kilometers away, but there was still no living person. Such a large urban agglomeration was just a deserted ghost town.

"Thank you both for your cooperation. I thought the plan would fail."

MEI thanked him again. The soldier in the back seat glanced at Ziyao and Ziyao with complicated eyes, and then looked at the corpse not far away.

Setting off again, MEI proposed to take a long detour to see if there were any survivors.

So, after spending two hours, Bronya asked the heavily armored rabbit to explore nearly a hundred kilometers in a radius, but there were still no humans.

When using the power of the Herrscher, her face was pale and she clenched her teeth, seeming to have touched the wounds left by her previous battle with Kevin.

In order not to be worried, she deliberately held on and acted as if nothing had happened.

Looking out the window at the desolate scenery, I can't imagine that this was once a lively city.

After Bronya saw the disaster caused by the Herrscher with her own eyes, her words became even more silent.

The girl sitting next to her noticed her mood and held her hand gently.

The warm and tender palms seem to be able to brush away even the pain, making people feel warm.

Very attentive, just like a real sister.

Bronya quietly raised her head and observed Ziyao's side face with her peripheral vision.

It no longer matters who the girl is, because...she probably has the answer.

【Ding!Favorability +0, current favorability is: 80]

And he himself still doesn't know how bad his unconscious behavior is.

She also doesn't know how miserable this cold-tempered, petite girl who treats her as a good friend will do to her in the future.

Volume One: Chapter 2 What I Want to Express ([-])

Following the route, they finally arrived at their destination.

This place is full of buildings submerged in loess, and not far away is a huge pit.

Both the MEI and the soldiers got out of the car and did not move forward even half a step.

This is what she calls the dividing line.

Ordinary people would die if they took even half a step forward.

Like pouring cold water on a hot road, life disappears in an instant.

"Before we act, Bronya has a question to ask."

The city in front was even more completely destroyed.

If what they just saw was a castle of blocks destroyed by children playing, then the scenery in front of them was equivalent to a sand castle flattened by the rising tide.

“What happens when you cross that line?”

MEI only mentioned that it was very dangerous, but never mentioned how dangerous it was.

Bronya noticed something was wrong when she listened to her introduction.

The soldier looked like he had known that the two men would ask, and quietly raised the butt of his rifle so that MEI could give the next order.

MEI closed her eyes with a complicated expression.

"Ordinary people walking in will immediately lose consciousness due to the loss of bioelectricity, and the body's various functions will stop working due to the lack of the most basic elements."

He didn't even have time to recover, and he died silently.

Just like being under anesthesia for surgery, it only took a second before I returned to the ward.

Time is cut by scissors, silently.

This is the process of losing consciousness, complete nothingness.

People who are anesthetized can wake up again, but people who die suddenly cannot even recognize their own [death].

"After the matter is over, I am willing to give you two rich rewards."

As she spoke, she took out her badge, indicating her central power position in the Fire Chaser and her ability to fulfill her promise.

"What if we don't accept it?"

Bronya asked sharply. During the drive, the sight of the accompanying soldiers made her very uncomfortable, giving people the feeling that they had other ideas, which was indeed the case.

"That Honkai Body stores the power of the Herrscher's attack yesterday. As long as it can be analyzed...it can save the surviving people."

"All known fusion warriors have been wiped out, and we have no other candidates."

MEI did not answer the question directly, but reminded Bronya how many corpses she saw along the way. It was obviously a bustling city not long ago.

"If you are not willing, my methods may be tougher."

Her tone was heavy.

To get to where she is today, she has made countless similar choices.

After all, this is just one of them.

MEI's emotions even affected the weak virtual world of the quantum sea, with several Honkai Beasts spawning next to it.

Kevin noticed it in time and erased this part of the anomaly.

Even though it was not real, seeing a familiar person lost, a subtle hint of complexity flashed across his expression.

"No matter how many years pass, I will still be her little follower..."

Mebius teased secretly while quietly observing Otto and others.

During the message exchange, she heard Ziyao mention Otto, who was said to have developed a 'god-killing spear' that could make the Herrscher lose his power, which interested her very much.

At this time, Otto, like Rita and the others, was carefully observing everything about the former civilization, even though it was just a moon-like shadow in the water.

It is better to get a glimpse of something from it than to read an ambiguous chronicle ten times.

"Eh??"

The hand was suddenly held again, and the girl's serious eyes reflected her figure.

"I can understand how you feel..."

Soft, slightly magnetic husky.

Like the breeze blowing through the grass, swaying the bells.

Soft and pleasant.

"My companions have lost contact, and the organization has been almost wiped out. It must be very uncomfortable to feel alone and helpless..."

"Otherwise, you wouldn't ask us for help, right?"

Ziyao sympathized and held MEI's hand tightly.

There was a part of the idea of ​​pranking Kevin, mainly because MEI's disappointed expression brought back a lot of memories for her.

"[-]. Thank you very much for your concern..."

Because of panic, MEI habitually used social rhetoric, and her ears turned red.

What a weirdo. He obviously wants them to die, but he still cares about her.

Kevin:??????

"Very well, let's set off first."

It went away as quickly as it came, and the feeling of being held tightly disappeared suddenly.

It was empty, which made MEI feel a little sad, and her eyes were glazed over on her hand for two seconds.

The girl returned to where she was as if nothing happened.

"Please wait, I can give you an adaptability test."

MEI stopped the two men and ordered the soldiers to take out the medical kit.

Just like an allergy skin test, the Herrscher's area of ​​restraint can be tested locally to see if it works for them.

After all, it is not entirely certain whether they are immune to the power of restraint.

"!"

When the girl heard this, she didn't stop and crossed the boundary generously.

Bronya followed closely behind. The power was indeed ineffective on them, but there was still a little pressure.

"Ugh..."

Pulling on the old wound, a small moan was revealed.

She quickly covered it up with a fake cough and justified the squeaking sound.
