Chapter 1476 The Herrscher of Fire (I continue to eat and eat)

The news that the Herrscher was about to appear was obviously more important than an inexplicable fight. Soon, the entire Fire Chasing Moth base was in action again. Dr. Mei also arrived quickly and chose to take the shuttle with Duanmu Huai to the reserved destination.

"Are you sure this is here?"

"uncertain."

Facing Dr. Mei's inquiry, Duanmuhuai's answer was also reasonable.

"The Kant Counter detection results show that this area has begun to experience a large-scale decrease in the Hume index, which is suspected of showing signs of the existence of reality distorters. That's all I can say now. As for whether this is the reason for the formation of the Herrscher, you ask me, Who should I ask?"

"That's true."

Dr. Mei doesn't care about Duanmu Huai's specious statement. After all, they come from outside the world and don't know much about the situation here. Moreover, using the Hume index to target reality warpers is also a technology of the Inquisition, which does not mean that it must be related to the Herrscher.

But no matter what, you still have to give it a try.

Thinking of this, Dr. Mei turned to look at the subordinates around him.

"Where are the test results of Honkai energy?"

"The test results of Honkai energy are normal..."

The Fire Chasing Moth is not completely without means of detecting the Herrscher. The powerful Honkai Impact reaction is the sign of the Herrscher, but unfortunately this is of little use for prevention in advance. Because when it was detected that the high-energy reaction of Honkai energy was about to explode, the Herrscher was born within a few minutes, and there was no time to evacuate the people. So every time when the Fire Chasing Moth arrives, the surroundings are already in chaos, and the Herrscher has been born.

But things are different now! They might be able to save these people!

"Sound the alarm immediately and issue an evacuation order."

At this moment, Dr. Mei also decisively issued the order.

"Dr. Mei? Are you sure?"

The people below were surprised when they heard Dr. Mei's order. You must know that the place Duanmuhuai detected this time is not a small mountain village or town, but a big city with millions of people. Evacuating people in such a city is not an easy task!

If this is an own goal, then...

"I confirm that it is declared a disaster preparedness and everyone is required to evacuate to the nearest evacuation center immediately."

Although collapse disasters are the most serious disasters in the world, it does not mean that there is nothing in the world except collapse disasters. Tsunamis, typhoons, earthquakes, etc. also exist. Therefore, large cities in this world also have shelters - of course, it is basically useless when facing the Herrscher, because there are basically no signs of the Herrscher's appearance, and by the time it is discovered, it is already too late, and there is no time to escape.

"yes."

The subordinate wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing and followed Dr. Mei's request to convey the order. Duanmu Huai just glanced at this woman, and then looked away. Of course he understood the meaning of the order issued by Dr. Mei. The Kant Counter was not that powerful and could lock the reality distorter in a short time, not to mention that this was a big city with millions of people. He wanted to investigate them one by one and start from them. Finding the target is almost impossible.

And judging from the current value of the Hume Index, they don't have time to look for them one by one, so it is certain that the Herrscher's outbreak this time is almost a certainty.

This also means that someone is bound to die.

But if they were evacuated separately, at least the others would be able to survive.

Therefore, Dr. Mei's decision is actually equivalent to giving up some people and letting them die, thereby allowing others to live.

As for who can survive, it depends on their luck.

Well, it's very oily style, but Duanmu Huai doesn't dislike it.

"Owner."

At this moment, Ogis's voice sounded.

"Kant counter shows Hume exponent reduced to critical value."

“Activating the Scranton Reality Anchor.”

"OK."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Ogis reached out her hand and pressed lightly on the machine in front of her. Then everyone saw the device installed in the center of the transport plane like a lamppost rapidly unfolding, and then they subconsciously seemed to feel something flash past them. But if you feel it carefully, you don't feel anything.

Just at this time......

"boom---!"

The flames soaring into the sky turned into pillars of fire, erupting from the city not far away.

Flames exploded.

This scene was like watching a volcanic eruption up close, with the scorching flames melting everything. People can even clearly see through the windows the scenes of high-rise buildings melting and exploding under the licking and burning of flames. This scene is so shocking that it can even be mistaken for a disaster caused by some kind of change in the world.

At the same time, the staff of Fire Chaser also screamed.

"A peak explosion of Honkai energy has been detected! It's the Herrscher!"

Along with her scream, the flames outside were like huge waves, rushing towards the transport plane. Seeing this scene, the people who watched the Fire Moth turned pale and were speechless. This was the first time they witnessed this horrific scene from a first-person perspective. They watched helplessly as the flames rushed toward them, and then...

"Why?"

The staff opened their eyes in surprise and looked around. The flames were still raging. But these flames, which could melt even steel buildings, had no way of getting close to the transport plane. They rushed towards the transport plane and then disappeared into thin air.

That's right, disappeared into thin air.

"What's going on?"

Qingqing also curiously asked, but Duanmuhuai didn't speak. Instead, Dr. Mei spoke.

"Is this the power of a reality anchor? It stabilizes reality?"

"That's right."

Duanmuhuai nodded.

"The Herrscher is a reality distorter, and the disasters it causes naturally distort reality. Likewise, as long as reality is stabilized and the distortion is offset, the Herrscher's ability will disappear completely."

"I see……"

Dr. Mei stretched out his hand, pressed the porthole at hand, and felt it silently. She initially thought it was some kind of energy barrier, but after experiencing it personally, Dr. Mei finally felt the power of the reality anchor. It stabilizes reality and resists all unreality. The flames of the Herrscher can burn everything, but in the final analysis, this is not the power of reality, but the distorted reality from the Herrscher.

But for Duanmuhuai, this is not enough.

"The target has been locked and the scope of influence of the reality stabilizing anchor has been expanded."

"Understood, execute immediately."

Ogis reached out her hand again and operated on the reality anchor, and then...

The weather cleared and the rain stopped.

As if the flames that burned the world just now were like an illusion, the originally raging flames completely disappeared, and the blue sky appeared in front of everyone again. If the destroyed building below was not still there, people might think that all this was just a dream, and they had just woken up from this dream.

"Prepare to land!"

Duanmuhuai didn't care about this. He gave the order directly, and then he saw the transport plane quickly lowering its altitude and then landing in the center of the disaster - there was no need to look for it, it was easy to confirm. Because from the air, you can see that there is an area below that has been completely destroyed by the burst of flames, leaving only an open space. In the center of the open space, a woman with long red hair was kneeling there, trembling.

When the transport plane landed in front of the red-haired woman, the latter raised her head and looked at this strange vehicle in surprise. But he quickly stood up and backed away instinctively.

"Are you from the Fire Chaser Special Forces?"

Dr. Mei stepped off the transport plane and was startled when he saw the woman in front of him.

"Please don't come here!"

However, at this moment, the red-haired woman screamed.

"Kill me quickly, I have become the Herrscher!"

Hearing the red-haired woman's words, everyone stopped involuntarily, only Mianmu Zuotiao's eyes shone. "Can I kill her? Can I kill her now?"

"Wait a minute."

Duanmuhuai grabbed Mianmu Zuotiao, who was excited and wanted to kill someone immediately, and then looked at Dr. Mei, who stared at the red-haired woman, silent for a moment, and then looked at Duanmuhuai.

"Your Majesty the Inquisitor, we hope to imprison her...perhaps we can find out something about the Herrscher."

"casual."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand.

"Anyway, within the scope of the reality anchor, she is just an ordinary person."

"I see."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Dr. Mei nodded, and then she led the Fire Chaser Moth staff closer to the red-haired woman. The latter looked more and more excited when he saw Dr. Mei walking towards him. However, Dr. Mei quickly calmed down the red-haired woman and said something to her. Then the red-haired woman seemed to understand her current situation and quickly lowered her head obediently and was monitored obediently.

It was only then that Dr. Mei breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to Duanmu Huai's side with a serious look on his face.

"We must go back to headquarters immediately."

Her expression was as indifferent as ever, but her voice revealed unquestionable determination.

With the return of Duanmu Huai and his party, the news that the Seventh Herrscher was under control immediately spread like wildfire throughout the Fire Chasing Moth base. For everyone, this was nothing less than a bolt from the blue. You must know that in the previous confrontations with the Herrscher, humans suffered heavy casualties and were finally eliminated. As for what the Herrscher is, they don't know very well. They can only study it through the Herrscher corpse and the Herrscher core.

But now, they actually caught a living Herrscher!

You must know that before this, they had never even dared to think about capturing the Herrscher alive!

But now, they actually did it!

The red-haired woman was immediately sent to the depths of Fire Chaser's secret research base and imprisoned. Of course, there was a reality anchor accompanying her. After all, she couldn't use the Herrscher's power within the scope of the Reality Anchor. And once she leaves the range of the Reality Anchor, this red-haired woman may immediately completely burn down the entire Fire Chasing Moth base.

After imprisoning the red-haired woman, Dr. Mei immediately presided over the first interrogation without stopping, and Duanmu Huai naturally also participated.

As for An and Mary - Duanmuhuai asked them to watch the sleeping bird.

The latter can really cause trouble.

Although it was called an interrogation, unlike the interrogation rooms in police movies, the red-haired woman was not treated so well. Her whole body was restrained, and her whole body was imprisoned in a blank room. Dr. Mei was observing her from the other side through the window and asking questions at the same time.

Of course, there is nothing that can be done about it, after all, he is a lawyer... In comparison, the treatment of prisoners is much better than this.

"Your identity."

"Yes... I am the leader of the fifth team of the Fire Chaser Australian Special Service Team, Himiko..."

At this moment, the red-haired woman seemed to be gradually returning to normal, and she replied in a low voice.

"Do you know what happened to you?"

"I... have some impression."

"Can you tell me more specifically? How did you become the Herrscher?"

This can be said to be the most concerning issue for the people of Fire Chasing Moth. After all, so far, they have not found the law of Herrscher's transformation. Not to mention that this time the Herrscher is actually the Fire Moth!

The information about Himihu naturally reached Dr. Mei's hands as soon as possible. Judging from this information, Himihu's experience is very normal and there is nothing special about it.

So, why did she become the Herrscher?

"Actually, I don't know very well..."

Himiko sighed and spoke.

"During this period, I have been having nightmares... Of course, similar situations have always troubled me. After all, the Herrscher's harm is too great, and there is nothing we can do. Every time we arrive at the scene, All we can do is rescue as many survivors as possible from the disaster caused by the Herrscher, but the feeling of being powerless... is really uncomfortable..."

"…………"

Hearing Himihu's words, the staff of Fire Chaser were silent. After all, they could understand Himihu's feelings. The Herrschers are simply too powerful, especially the Sixth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Death, whom they encountered before. Countless people died in his hands. The Fire Chasing Moth also took great efforts to eliminate them. Got her.

To be honest, after every battle, the staff of Fire Chaser did not feel the joy of victory deep in their hearts, but only felt heavy sadness and sighs. So much has been lost, so much has been sacrificed. Although the Herrscher has been eliminated, this is not the end of everything. No one knows when it will end, and no one knows how many casualties the next Herrscher will cause. They felt as if they were climbing an endless mountain. And every time a Herrscher is eliminated, it only gives them a moment of respite. After that, they will continue to grit their teeth and insist on climbing up.

After all, if they don't persist, they will only end up falling into the bottomless abyss.

Himihu is a member of the special service team, so they who are on the scene will definitely feel this more than the staff behind the scenes.

"So, sometimes I have... No, I'm not sure if it's my idea. I want to completely destroy it all and stop holding on... No one knows when it will be the end, so just let everything be there. It ends here..."

"Then what?"

Dr. Mei remained calm and indifferent, while Duanmuhuai just stood there with his arms folded, saying nothing.

"Then, I felt...as if there was another me in my body...I'm not sure, it was a bit like another voice? She kept telling me that the world was hopeless and that destroying it would be the best thing. Choice. It is better to turn it into ashes, burn it completely, and let everyone die with it, than struggling in pain. At that time, I just thought that this was just an escape thought caused by my cowardice, but I didn't expect... "

"Is that the Herrscher?"

"Yes."

Himihu nodded.

"Just now, we got the order to evacuate the people in the city. I also felt a little tired. But at that time I saw my companions, and I..."

Having said this, Himihu seemed to have remembered something and hurriedly raised his head.

"Where are my subordinates? Where is Hua? How are they doing?!"

"…………"

Dr. Mei took the information at hand and took a look.

"According to the search team's investigation, all members of the fifth team were deemed dead except for the special service member named Hua, who was seriously injured and is undergoing rescue operations."

"Yes...yes..."

"Please continue."

Dr. Mei did not give Himihu time to feel sad, and Himihu quickly calmed down.

"At that time, I only felt that I lost consciousness for a moment, but it was not a coma, but more like being imprisoned by something. I could only feel the heat all around, as if I was in a hot prison. I Struggling to get rid of this swallowing, but it is stubborn It grabbed me and wouldn't let go. I could feel that the whole world seemed to be burning, and then... suddenly, it let me go... No, or rather, it seemed to have lost its power to bind me. When I opened it again When my eyes returned to my body, I saw you appear."

"So now, can you still feel the Herrscher?"

"Can."

Himihu nodded.

"I can feel her anger, her fear, she wants to destroy everything, but her power seems to be unable to be exerted anymore, she cannot complete her mission, and she is restless because of it..."

"mission?"

Dr. May paused.

"are you sure?"

"Yes."

Himihu nodded vigorously.

"These were her exact words - humanity will be destroyed."
