Chapter 15: Shock! Two Emperor-Level Honkai Beasts?
"Uh? Who is it—Bronya, oh, it's nothing, why haven't you left yet?"
Yunduo's heart tightened for a moment, but she pretended as if nothing had happened.
Why did she come back at this time? She couldn't have seen it, could she?
Bronya heard this, looked away, and gently shook her head: "Kiana said she forgot something, so I came back to get it for her."
"Is that so? I was just about to help Kiana clean her room, but—I'm a bit sleepy, so I'll head back first."
Yunduo put the water cup she had hidden behind her back in place, casually made a few excuses, and then left Kiana's bedroom.
Leaving Bronya sitting on Project Bunny, stunned in place.
Seeing Yunduo's fleeting back, Bronya first retrieved what Kiana had forgotten.
The moment she left the room.
Her gray eyes drifted to the water cup on the desk, and a thought told her that this was what Yunduo had just been hiding.
"A water cup?"
Bronya hesitantly picked up the empty cup; a few drops of water remained on the rim, clearly indicating it had just been drunk from.
Connecting this with Yunduo's furtive behavior just now, it was easy to realize that she was the one who did it.
Why would Sister Yunduo secretly drink the silly Kiana's water?
Bronya didn't understand.
She was stunned for a long time until Project Bunny reminded her. Only then did she put the water cup back in its original place and refill it halfway with water. Perhaps Sister Yunduo had a reason to do so... outside St. Freya Academy.
Perhaps Sister Yunduo had a reason to do so... outside St. Freya Academy.
Yunduo, having replenished Kiana's exclusive Honkai Energy, let out a long breath and walked straight out.
Along the way, she saw many Valkyrie Squads assembled, ready to depart for the front lines.
These teenage girls might soon die, becoming nutrients for scorched earth, or be assimilated by Honkai, becoming Death Soldiers, and finally killed by their comrades.
But they walked on, ready to sacrifice themselves at any moment.
This was Honkai.
No one could guarantee they would live to see tomorrow's dawn.
"The usage time for an S-rank Herrscher of Flamescion is roughly thirty minutes."
"At full power, SSS-rank, it can only be used for less than three minutes."
Yunduo calculated the total amount of Kiana's exclusive Honkai Energy she had just absorbed and arrived at this number.
This time was enough!
Enough for her to kill a mutated Molten Emperor!
To ordinary people, high-level Honkai Beasts were like gods; to a Herrscher, they were merely ants.
Yunduo seized the moment, without any hesitation.
Since entry and exit from St. Freya Academy required a pass, Yunduo did not go through the main gate.
She found an unmanned spot, lightly pushed off with her right foot, and flipped over the academy wall.
As soon as she left the academy, the smell of gunpowder and blood drifted through the air.
Yunduo looked out.
The defensive line outside St. Freya Academy was still safe; no Honkai Beasts were in sight.
Several Valkyrie Squads, armed with heavy cannons, were patrolling in an orderly manner.
But this was the innermost part of Saint Freya, almost impossible to fall. The truly dangerous position was on the outer front line.
If that Molten Emperor wasn't killed on the outer perimeter but instead reached the academy's exterior...
It had a long-range attack that could very likely cause the academy's defense system to collapse.
At that time, many logistics, C-rank, and D-rank Valkyries would be in grave danger.
Also, where was Theresa?
If she were to handle it, there would be no need for such a grand display.
"Hello, we are the Third Valkyrie Squad. Please show your identification."
Suddenly, one of the Valkyrie Squads approached Yunduo. The leading golden-haired Valkyrie stood solemnly before her. To prevent Anti-Entropy personnel from infiltrating and some new Valkyrie recruits from sneaking out to their deaths, combat identification was necessary, usually issued by Principal Theresa.
How could Yunduo have identification?
She was officially only a C-Rank Valkyrie who had climbed over the academy wall.
However, Yunduo showed no panic on her face; instead, she returned a salute, her expression calm.
"I am acting under Principal Theresa's private orders, responsible for eradicating Honkai Beasts on the front lines. Please take me there immediately."
"Eradicating Honkai Beasts?"
After hearing this, the leading golden-haired Valkyrie's imposing demeanor weakened a bit, and she asked doubtfully.
They had not received any such instructions.
But as she looked at Yunduo's serious expression, her resolute dark eyes, and the aura of a warrior who had climbed out of a sea of blood, she subconsciously leaned towards believing what Yunduo said.
"Are you... that one from Schicksal Headquarters?"
At this, the golden-haired Valkyrie made a guess, trying her best to lower her voice.
"Yes." Yunduo didn't know who she was referring to, but the situation was urgent, so she didn't explain further.
"Ah! Thank you very much for coming. Our academy is currently under a large-scale Honkai Beast attack. Please support us. Principal Theresa is also on the front line, where there is a Honkai Emperor."
"A Honkai Emperor? Is it the Molten Emperor?"
Yunduo was a bit surprised. If Theresa was here, it seemed she wouldn't need to go to the battlefield.
"It doesn't seem to be. I didn't get a clear look, but that Honkai Beast was bluish-purple."
Bluish-purple?
The Frost Emperor?
There are two Emperor-Level Honkai Beasts?!!
Yunduo immediately frowned: "Then where is Major Kizuna?"
"We don't know."
"Take me there immediately!"
Seeing this, the golden-haired Valkyrie understood the gravity of the situation and immediately explained to her Valkyrie Squad.
Thus, Yunduo, led by the Third Valkyrie Squad, quickly ran towards the front line.
Until large numbers of Advancing-type and Knight-type Honkai Beasts began to appear around them, making it difficult for this Valkyrie Squad to cope.
Yunduo, seeing this, gave the order: "You all go back. The rest of the way is too dangerous for you."
According to them, Himeko was not far ahead; a straight path would lead there.
Receiving their superior's instructions, the Third Valkyrie Squad saluted, their eyes filled with admiration and reverence, and gradually retreated from the front line.
At this moment, Yunduo looked around her.
This was the inner side of the Honkai Beast tide's encroachment, about to reach the core position.
The intensity of Honkai Energy here is enough to turn an ordinary person into a Death Soldier within seconds.
Countless Rush-type Honkai Beasts and Knight-type Honkai Beasts are wreaking havoc everywhere, and occasionally, Tank-type Honkai Beasts can be spotted.
The Valkyries' firearms barely pose a threat to the Honkai Beasts, only managing to push them back; it takes an A-Rank Valkyrie to end the lives of these monsters.
Yunduo hid in a corner, her consciousness returning to the space.
In that row of Valkyrie selection slots, her consciousness felt like a tentacle, lightly touching the first warrior clad in flames.
Following a flash of light.
White and red armor manifested, and a Greatsword of Fire appeared in Yunduo's hand.
Domain of Incandescence: Everlasting Flames!
This Pri-Arm weapon can normally exist as dual pistols or transform into a high-lethality fire sword.
"Suppressed to S-Rank Valkyrie, I only have half an hour."
Yunduo muttered to herself, keeping track of the passage of time.
Time was running out for her.
Her ink-black eyes turned a mature azure, and her appearance transformed into Kiana as she would look three years later.
The red and white cape behind her swayed amidst the roars of the Honkai Beasts.
