"careful!"

boom--

The wall bulged and shattered, and another huge Honkai beast arched out with its fist raised high. Kevin immediately hugged Mei and used his back to block the punch, but he heard a sharp explosion in the air, and then the whole control room shook.

Kevin opened his eyes and looked back, only to see that the monster had been nailed to the wall, with a black spear trembling slightly on its chest.

The familiar figure was standing in front of him, reaching out to pull out the spear.

So fast......

Kevin couldn't understand how he could stand in front of him in the blink of an eye when the corridor was hundreds of meters away.

puff.

The spear was drawn, the body fell to the ground, Ryan turned around, his face still showing his usual gentle and indifferent smile: "I know you two have a lot of problems, but now is not the time to dwell on them. Follow me, I'll take you out."

"and many more."

Ryan stopped immediately and looked back with a frown: "Mei, it's not like you to be long-winded."

"I just ask one thing, why did you save us? Wouldn't it be faster for you to escape?" Mei knew that Ryan would not sacrifice himself for others, and had nothing to do with the Virgin Mary. Just like in the research, his rationality would only make the most efficient choice.

"It proves that you don't understand me well enough. I've said before, I don't have many friends, and rationality is just a tool. If you want to completely transform into a humanoid computer, you will lose the courage to explore." Ryan said nothing more, picked up his gun and left, and when he got into the escape passage, he added one more sentence in his heart.

Besides, even from a purely rational point of view, you two cannot die.

He vaguely remembered that Kevin and May were affected only after the third collapse. In other words, the butterfly effect had begun to appear. The pioneers did not believe in fate, so Ryan dared not leave it alone.

There was no falsehood in this answer. Mei hesitated for a moment and then quickly followed.

The electricity had been cut off, with only the dim light of the emergency lights remaining underground. The three climbed up the escape stairs, with Ryan clearing the way and answering some questions.

For example, those monsters will appear randomly within the range of "collapse". No place is safe. If you want to escape from danger, you must escape from the range of "natural disaster".

Mei was not afraid at all, it was more like she had opened the door to a new world. Her eyes were filled with endless curiosity. Kevin seemed silent, completely losing his usual lively attitude.

He saw Ryan's spear piercing through the dead man, looked at the somewhat familiar face, closed his eyes, and secretly pinched his thigh with his hand.

It hurts, this is not a dream...

A chill ran down his back, and he seemed to feel that his peaceful daily life was over and the world was sliding in a disgusting and unfamiliar direction.

boom!

The heavy blast-proof door dented, then flew out, knocking over several 'mosquitoes'. Before they could get up, the falling men had already trampled them into pieces.

"What a big scene. Luckily it's a holiday today so there aren't many people in the school."

Ryan looked around and saw that the campus was filled with thick smoke in the middle of the night. The flames shot up into the sky and illuminated the night sky. The sound of buildings collapsing could be heard from everywhere, but there were no screams. It was so strange and unsettling.

Invisible energy enveloped the central area of ​​the academy. People within this range would either die or turn into monsters. Ordinary people had no chance of resistance. Even if there were a few lucky ones, they would be found and killed.

"I thought it was the end of the world." Mei took a step forward, her eyes full of strangeness. You know, she had agreed to take a walk with Kevin a few hours ago.

"You are not afraid?"

"Is it useful to be afraid? It's just like doing an experiment. If you encounter an accident, you should find the problem and then try your best to solve it. You should be very clear about this logic."

Rational and pure, no wonder he can become a savior-like figure.

Ryan showed some appreciation. No wonder Mei didn't ask common sense questions like what "collapse" is. Obviously, she knew that her life would be turned upside down after tonight, and she had plenty of time to figure out the reason.

Since Mei was so sensible, he didn't bother to argue anymore and just stood there like the computer had crashed.

"Ryan, what are you still standing there for?" Kevin looked around nervously. He could see blurry shadows in the night and knew without asking that the monsters were coming towards him.

Some of the shadows were as big as houses, some staggered forward like zombies from a horror movie, and the young man couldn't help but make the baseball bat crackle.

"Wait."

"Waiting for what?"

Boom boom boom...

Before he could finish his words, a series of explosions completely shattered the silent night. The three of them subconsciously turned their heads and saw a series of fireballs rising in the south, illuminating several giant monsters that were blown into pieces, as well as an armed helicopter humming through the sky.

The Fire Moth has finally arrived, and it reacts very quickly.

Ryan was relieved and pointed in the direction of the fire: "Kevin, take Mei and retreat from that side. Be smart and don't get killed by humans."

The two men were not stupid and obviously knew that the army was here to deal with it. However, Mei thought more deeply and judged from the speed of their reaction that they were well prepared.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Kevin ran a few steps with his girlfriend, then turned back in surprise: "Ryan, what are you doing?"

"Of course I am here to attract firepower for you. Otherwise, if you are entangled by the Honkai Beast, the Fire Moth will cover you with firepower without hesitation." Ryan jumped off the twisted iron gate and headed north with a gun in hand.

The tip of the gun rubbed against the ground, creating sparks, and the straight back looked like a charging knight. Kevin took a look and felt extremely strange and yet extremely familiar. The time he spent with Ryan flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

Likes to play missing, rarely talks to others except for a few friends, often lets others down with just a few words, sometimes very insidious, but in the final analysis -

That man never backed down.

Chapter 10 Come, let me see you!!

The way of pioneering is to move forward and never retreat.

Destiny Walkers will eventually be influenced by their ideas, and then branches will arise because each walker has different ideas. Today's accident is also a stimulation for Ryan, just like the leisurely preparation period is nearing the end, he must understand more about the collapse.

Even so, you have to take some risks.

Ryan walked forward slowly, looking at the swaying shadows through the night, narrowing his eyes slightly.

There are medium-sized and larger Honkai disasters, a three-story-high chariot-level large species, three ballista-level ones, oh, and there is even a temple-level Honkai beast.

Ryan's eyes were fixed on a three-meter-tall Honkai beast, whose shell exuded a silver metallic glow and it held a large shield and a giant sword. If he remembered correctly, in the next generation, the A-level Valkyrie exam would involve a one-on-one challenge against a large Temple-level species.

Of course, there are differences in size within the same level, and generally speaking, size is proportional to strength.

Hey.

Ryan paused and watched the fat Honkai beasts gather a giant stone ball. He knew that these brainless monsters would not just sit there and watch. They simply lowered their center of gravity, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the concrete road beneath their feet.

"For me, the so-called pioneering path is—"

call out! !

With the sound of breaking through the air, the stone ball flew over like a cannonball, and the shadow completely covered Ryan. Then at the same time, the stationary warrior shot out like lightning.

"Make the most rational plan, and then take that step forward without hesitation!"

Rumble.

The stone ball smashed the ground into pieces, and an obvious shock wave hit his back. His rolled white coat rustled. He penetrated the night sky, overlooking the dozens of black shadows on the ground. He exerted force on his waist and abdomen and turned around in the air.

Energy gathered in the air, forming steps visible to the naked eye, and he turned his body upside down and stepped hard on them.

Phew—boom!

The sound of rolling stones passing by and the sound of heavy stomping were heard one after another. Ryan, who should have been hit directly, was transformed from an arrow across the sky into a falling meteor.

Falling stars.

The spear slammed down, turning a knight-level Honkai beast into a pancake, and then the air was compressed, expanded, and exploded.

boom! !

The shock wave swept away dozens of dead soldiers, and the debris flew everywhere like bullets, hitting the surface of the Honkai beast and bursting into large sparks. Smaller "mosquitoes" were simply knocked to the ground.

The Honkai beast had no fear and only instinct. The three stone balls that had just condensed smashed directly over, and the giant chariot that was as tall as a three-story building was also crushed into the dust.

It moved very slowly, raising its giant hand high. With one punch, it could probably raze a small building to the ground.

dong dong dong.

After a few muffled sounds, the stone ball that had just burrowed into the dust bounced up and hit its chest, causing its body to lean back and its fist to smash directly into the teaching building next to it.

There was a loud crash of glass breaking, and the five-story teaching building collapsed in the middle. The strong wind blew away the dust.

Ryan stood in front of it, his whole body covered in shadow, but facing this huge monster, he did not show any fear.

Although large tanks were rare before the Second Herrscher, they had been killed in double digits over the past ten years.

The movements are slow and the lower body is not very stable.

With a twist of the wrist, Honkai energy exploded on the spear made of a special alloy, controlled and gathered, and a meter-long blade extended from the tip of the spear, like a burning flame.

True red spiral.

Ryan raised his gun, and the knife lights flashed as he spun his body.

It passed through the feet of the Honkai Beast and swept past the enemies crowding behind it. The circular saw extended forward for a hundred meters, leaving a bright trail, and then the spear was shaken.

Crash.

The body was torn into pieces, and the cuts were extremely smooth. A moment later, the huge Honkai beast fell on its back, crushing its companions who were not yet dead to pieces.

Ryan felt his heartbeat quickening, and when he saw the afterimage rushing towards him, he felt a twisted sense of excitement.

"I've been giving up my comfortable life and hunting for ten years. Isn't it just for moments like this?"

Slaughter the Honkai beasts, challenge the Herrscher, push your strength and intelligence to the limit, and finally move towards an unimaginable future.

clang! !

The pale sword slashed in the center of the spear. The powerful force made Ryan's knees bend. The Temple creature, who was nearly half a meter taller than him, was a little confused. How could a human being block his attack?

But it reacted extremely quickly, and the large shield in its left hand slammed out like a door panel.

The wind pressure came head-on, and Ryan took a step back to retract his strength. The bounced stones were smashed into powder by the big shield, and the Honkai beast, like a steel warrior, became dazed for a moment and rolled to the side without thinking.

Charge forward—slash!

It was a very simple attack, with only the heavy sword slashing down, forming a bright wind pressure on the ground, cutting the corner of the white coat, splitting the fallen chariot into two, and finally sinking into the teaching building with a "boom".

"It's such a terrifying force. No wonder they use barrage saturation attacks."

Ryan narrowed his eyes. Only by experiencing this power personally did he realize that the "miscellaneous soldiers" were just a joke. They might be miscellaneous soldiers in the eyes of the Herrscher, but demolishing a building was as easy as drinking water to them.

If it was the first few years of my life, I really wouldn't be his opponent, but the mistake of Honkai was that it fattened me up slowly.

Ryan pressed his palm on the ground, turned back, held the gun in one hand, swung it in a circle and swept it horizontally close to the ground, just passing under the big shield.

boom!

The palm of his hand felt slightly numb, and there was a crisp metallic sound as if he had hit something of iron. The Templar, who had been holding up the greatsword, suddenly lost his balance, and the greatsword filled with energy drew an arc.
