Considering her identity, Sister Ta felt somewhat more confident. She raised her scythe and dodged Wendy's wind blades with superhuman movements. Even those she couldn't block, she managed to get blocked by the Silver Moon combat system summoned by the Azure Knight.
—This is all thanks to Jiang. Originally, her Azure Knight was an unfinished product, but as the Herrscher of Reason, Bronya simply and unreasonably turned her Azure Knight from an unfinished product into a finished product.
The Silver Moon system, which was previously unusable, is now available.
"It doesn't seem that strong."
After tentatively taking a hit from a wind blade, Sister Ta couldn't help but have this thought.
Compared to the Herrscher of Void and the unreasonable Herrscher of Reason, she felt that the Herrscher of Wind in front of her was quite ordinary.
Although there are many area-of-effect attacks, unfortunately they can't hit anyone at all. As for the wind blades... they are quite powerful, but Rita, with the fourth-generation Godslayer Armor, doesn't think they pose much of a threat.
We can fight!
Thinking this to herself, Rita gripped Skadi tightly in her hand and revealed a confident smile.
The so-called Law of the Wind is nothing more than this!
I am Rita from the Heavenly Name Headquarters, and I can slay Wendy the Herrscher!
"Wake up, owner of the refrigerator!"
As she softly murmured, a silver moon emerged from behind her.
Smiling, Sister Tazi's eyes also held a hint of worry.
The original activation phrase for Silver Moon should have been 'Awaken, Master of Frost', and she thought it was quite cool.
However, after Jiang Qiao improved the Azure Knight system's summoning phrase, it changed from "Frost" to "Refrigerator"...
The once cool summoning phrase instantly became incredibly tacky, leaving Rita somewhat helpless.
Jiang Qiao's explanation was: "There was a small bug when we were perfecting it. It's easy to create more bugs if we try to fix it, so it's not a big deal. Just use it as is."
Rita was a little annoyed. How could a bug be caused by changing just one sentence!
That bad guy definitely did it on purpose!
"When I return to Destiny later, I will definitely change this summoning phrase back!"
Thinking this to herself, Rita, wielding her scythe, slashed through the incoming wind blades with a flourish, then charged toward Wendy.
The battle between the two was extremely intense, with neither able to gain the upper hand.
Wendy's AoE tornado is too slow to hit Rita, and while her wind blades can hit her, they are blocked by Silver Moon. As for Rita... it's awkward, her ranged attack ability is basically zero.
The Azure Knight system is designed this way: maximum melee capability. As long as you engage in close combat, you can use the cold air attached to your armor to continuously erode your opponent, making their movements incredibly slow.
This is tailor-made for Rita, who specializes in fighting people. As long as she fights in close combat, even Lady Durandal would be at a disadvantage if she were to engage in a prolonged battle with her.
But no matter what...
The Herrschers are all mages!
You're dreaming if you think you can just sit around with those powerful Herrscher abilities and not use them?
A vortex of tornadoes surrounded Wendy; if you dared to rush in, the chaotic air currents would instantly shred Rita.
Silver Moon's only ranged attack directly enchanted Wendy's wind spell, turning what was originally just air currents into a wave mixed with ice shards.
Ice erosion... Whether Wendy's movements were slow or not, Rita felt her hands and feet starting to stiffen.
"To suffer!"
Barely managing to shatter a clump of wind bullets mixed with ice shards, it was thought that the towering figure, who had been able to take down a Herrscher single-handedly, would be a bit too much for her.
There's no way to fight this, we're countered!
—In fact, Wendy was not much weaker than her to begin with.
As the youngest and most talented new-generation A-rank Valkyrie in Schicksal, Wendy is an outstanding member of the new generation, except that she lacks the experience of veteran A-rank Valkyries like Himeko Murata.
If it weren't for the delay caused by the Gem of Desire, in another two or three years, with the right Godslayer Armor, she would have been the fourth S-rank Valkyrie.
Now that he has become the Herrscher of Wind, his strength has increased exponentially.
Rita figured that the only one who could reliably control this girl with the short haircut was Lady Durandal.
"boom!"
A massive homing blast came hurtling towards her. Rita, whose stamina was already severely depleted, reacted slowly and was unable to dodge in time, getting hit squarely.
Seizing the opportunity, Wendy coldly raised her hand and unleashed a wind blade powerful enough to slice through a warship: "It's over!"
"Kang".
A huge cloud of smoke enveloped the area where Sister Ta was, along with a faint clanging sound.
Lacking combat experience, Wendy didn't notice anything amiss and assumed the battle was over, so she immediately relaxed.
next moment--
"Peng!"
Wendy's pupils contracted sharply as she saw the azure metallic fist reflected in her eyes. She instinctively tried to defend herself, but it was too late. She was hit squarely in the abdomen.
"Wow!"
The merciless force struck her smooth abdomen, turning the excited Green Seele from ecstasy to despair. Her beautiful face curled up into a ball, and she was blasted away like a shrimp, her back arched.
The next moment, the smoke and dust were torn apart by an invisible force, revealing the small figure that had been blocking Rita's expression.
"You can't beat her?"
The silver-haired girl's delicate yet indifferent face scrutinized Rita, whose body was covered in wounds left by wind blades, with a somewhat strange expression.
Sister Ta was a little embarrassed:
"...Ahem, Rita and her aren't very compatible."
"..."
Upon hearing this reason, Bronya immediately turned into a meme.
Please, do you even know what stats that Green Seele has?
800 hW! A full 800 hW!
His gaze shifted to Wendy, who was emerging from the rubble that had been breached, and Jiang's expression became somewhat strange.
It seems that because the cocoon mobilized too much Honkai energy into the tip of the imaginary branch, although the Herrscher of Wind from the previous civilization became somewhat terrifying, this one from the current civilization was malnourished and its development was extremely poor.
Even the weakest Herrscher usually has 2khw... Oh, and this one in front of me.
In short, Wendy's situation is much worse than before. From at least 2khw, it has been reduced to 800hw, which is equivalent to the size of a medium-sized Honkai reactor.
Although the strength of a Herrscher cannot be linked to their Honkai energy level, since Herrschers are beings that rely on power, their energy level can increase rapidly if they are cleansed by the Great Honkai.
But with such a low energy level... there's too little mana!
This is especially true for Wendy, a cane-wielding law enforcer.
The higher the energy level, the stronger the wind she can blow.
If it were a 2khw Wendy, I bet Ta Zi would run away after just one look.
Wendy, possessing formidable vitality, clutched her abdomen, a trace of bright red blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, and said rather angrily:
"You bastard, you actually ambushed me!"
That's so despicable!
"All's fair in war."
"But if you want a fair fight, that's fine too."
"Okay!"
Although she was furious at being ambushed by this strange girl, Wendy was quite interested in the duck in front of her, perhaps because she was 'Green Seele'.
Especially—she felt that the other person seemed very strong.
"but--"
The silver-haired girl's voice, which smelled like baby powder, suddenly changed.
"If you lose, you'll behave yourself, okay?"
Wendy isn't inherently bad, but unfortunately he arrived too late. After being transformed by the Herrscher of Reason, Green Seele's personality has become more intense, making it impossible to win her over using Bronya's original methods. Besides, Jiang Qiao has no interest in that slow, methodical approach.
So he chose a more direct method—to subdue her by beating her!
Let's give this poor kid a good beating first. As for the subsequent ideological work, we can do it slowly.
"Hmph, no problem."
Wendy gave a soft hum, her face full of confidence.
It was just a sneak attack; she simply didn't have time to react.
I've already defeated an S-rank Valkyrie, how could I possibly lose to you?
—I am the Herald of the Wind!
