"...Hey, why are you here again this afternoon?"
Ye Lan, who was inspecting the mall, saw Liu Bai with two women on either side of him and had a strange expression on her face.
—Okay, actually, she just wants to crawl into a hole and disappear whenever she sees Liu Bai.
“Buying things, huh? This is my tenant, Eden.”
“You really dare…” Yelan said something that sounded like a threat to Eden.
Knowing there are Lawbringers here, you still dare to swagger over with Huang Quan.
Well, there's no real danger. As long as the Herrscher isn't brain-dead, they won't even think about taking action.
As for alerting the enemy... it's not entirely a bad thing.
It's a psychological game.
She's now going to access surveillance footage from various locations; perhaps she can spot a flaw in the Herrscher's defenses.
The only problem is...
Liu Bai, you've got a lot of beautiful women around you, huh...
Especially since this guy was wearing his own clothes, his own bracelet, and dating girls he didn't even know...
Sure enough, after this was over, I could give up the clothes, but I absolutely had to get the bracelet back!
This thing is too symbolic!
It doesn't matter now that few people around me know me, but as more people come along, I'm afraid not everyone will look at me and Liu Bai with prejudice.
Although Liu Bai was a good catch, Ye Lan had to admit that she was a little bit tempted, but her luck with men was just too much...
Ye Lan thought... maybe she'd lose her mind someday and then she'd want to live with Liu Bai!
With my looks and qualifications, is it that I can't find a good man? Why do I have to compete with other women for a man?
Whew... Calm down, calm down, don't let personal feelings get in the way.
"Then enjoy your shopping."
Ye Lan waved her hand and left.
"Not on good terms?" Dian was somewhat puzzled.
"Um...a somewhat embarrassing mix-up happened this morning."
Chatting with people outside your circle can be a bit troublesome.
Okay, actually it might be more complicated to just say it directly.
"Speaking of which, Eden, what do you want to buy that you have to come to the Chamber of Commerce?"
Liu Bai didn't actually want to come to the Chamber of Commerce, since peaches aren't exactly rare fruits; it was just that Eden wanted to come.
Liu Bai weighed the options and agreed.
"I want to buy some fabric or fur."
Eden glanced at Liu Bai, who subconsciously touched the flying robe he was wearing.
Liu Bai's actions made Eden smile: "The material of that dress is very good, but the craftsmanship... can only be considered top-notch, and it doesn't fit you very well, does it? You are more suited to a cloak; this dress... has a bit of a cheap and shabby feel to it."
Liu Bai shrugged. He didn't know anything about clothes; whatever you say goes.
…………
"That woman..."
Liu Bai swaggered over with Huang Quan, naturally attracting the attention of the Herrschers of Domination in the mall.
This information was quickly relayed to the other Herrschers of Dominion.
What should I do?
(Has she noticed you?)
(...No, I walked past her. Her attention didn't seem to be on me. Was it a coincidence?)
(It's good that they haven't noticed you. Don't reveal any ill intentions; they might be deliberately trying to alert you... According to intelligence, that man came by this morning, right?)
For such a powerful person, even the smallest act of malice can be incredibly obvious.
The dominant herald in the mall naturally agreed—only a fool would harbor malice towards such a powerful being!
That was a knife that truly taught them what reverence is.
(Hmm, maybe they've reached some kind of agreement... Perhaps their current actions are part of their plan to force us into chaos.)
Play it safe.
After learning of the existence of such a powerful individual in the Sky Zone, the Herrschers of Dominion shifted their strategy to seeking stability.
As for why the Sky Zone wasn't abandoned?
Why give up?
The Second Herrscher, completely unsuspecting, is right here.
Why did they infiltrate the Chamber of Commerce?
It's all for that girl named Kiana!
Moreover, the high density of people in chambers of commerce means that the grassroots level is not very tight.
Although they had gained some understanding of the locations of other key areas through various sources of intelligence, they still had a basic understanding of the places.
However, the sophisticated containment facilities made it impossible for them to sense the exact location of the core.
Only here, the Second Herrscher's aura, like blood spreading in the ocean, attracts these "sharks."
They consider themselves very rational, but correspondingly, they also have the obsessions of a Herrscher.
(There are also unfamiliar shrine maidens sweeping away the zombies and Honkai beasts on the outskirts. We can't just sit here and wait to die.)
(But we also cannot take the initiative to attack.)
(There's more than one power in the Sky Dome District. This man is connected to the Chamber of Commerce and Inazuma, so what other powers are there here...?)
(Destiny!)
To distract from the conflict between the Mandate of Heaven and the Chamber of Commerce.
Although they were hiding in the shadows, the feeling of being constantly watched was not pleasant at all.
(What should I do?)
(Should we lure those despicable Valkyries who are carrying out sweeping missions in the city here?)
(No, doing this might not cause conflict... We've roughly determined the Second Herrscher's current location, so we'll directly activate her... Just enough to awaken her for a tiny moment...)
The burst of Honkai energy could absolutely destroy a large area of buildings.
This, in turn, ignites a sense of crisis among humanity.
The muddier the water, the easier it is for them to move around.
Chapter 116 Waaaa, poor little Rita (no mercy)
boom--!
"The stormtroopers...that's a really aggressive fighting style."
After finishing their battle, Kujo Sara and Kamisato Ayaka stood on high ground, looking down at the Valkyries, all wielding greatswords, within the sealed-off area.
The momentum of their strikes allowed their greatswords to easily tear apart the frail bodies of the assassins.
Moreover, this was not a reckless act of advancing without retreating—their sturdy and heavy greatswords were the best shields.
However, this group had no room to retreat—they were not equipped with any ranged individual weapons, and their greatswords were used solely for offense and defense in the charge.
"Will we clash with them, Lord Sara?"
"I don't know, it depends on what Liu Bai decides." Tiao Sha Luo looked away. There was no need to linger here any longer. Although it was inevitable that they would take action sooner or later if they crammed so many people into a "small" place like the Sky Dome District, it was clearly not now. "Besides, you can just call me by my name here. There's no need to be so formal."
"Yes."
Ayaka Kamisato still maintained a respectful demeanor, clearly not listening at all—but Sara Kujo was already used to it.
There will always be people who take her gentle but earnest words as mere politeness.
"gone."
Kujo Sara flapped its wings again and lifted Kamisato Ayaka up.
"That's... a bird?"
Ragnar easily tore the knight-level warrior in front of him apart with his greatsword and subconsciously looked up at the sky.
Only a black dot could be seen in the azure sky.
"Captain? What are you looking at?"
"Ah...no, it must be my imagination?"
Ragnar gave his teammates a serious and focused look.
"Let me confirm again, are all hostile reactions silenced here?"
"Silence, Captain."
The technician next to him, leaning on his greatsword, quickly checked the surrounding area with his instruments.
"This is the last location."
"Ah."
Ragnar nodded calmly.
"Clean up the battlefield and call it a day. Is anyone injured?"
"No."
"That's good—by the way, did you guys go to the bar last night?"
With the battle settled, Ragnar's expression softened considerably, transforming her from a fierce female warrior into a gentle older sister.
"Uh... I don't know the area well, so I didn't go." The technician looked embarrassed. "Hey, Captain, why don't you ask Rita to help us organize a social event?"
"Yeah, yeah, Rita-chan looks like the kind of social butterfly who's very popular."
The atmosphere on the battlefield noticeably heated up when this topic was brought up.
Rita and the others were truly familiar with her; they had watched her grow up, from a pure and lovely girl to a graceful and elegant young woman... while also carrying a hint of seductive charm.
"Stop joking. If Rita really had that many male admirers, I wouldn't have chosen her to be the team leader."
Ragnar laughed and cursed.
How should I put it? Unless this entire vanguard team retires, whoever finds a boyfriend will have to bear the wrath of everyone.
Even if Rita came up, it would be the same.
"Ah...no, when I first arrived yesterday, I heard from the juniors of the Undying Blade that Little Rita might..."
"Um--!?"
The technician's short, soft words immediately attracted the attention of everyone around him.
"What might have happened to Rita?"
The expressions on the faces of those around him were more or less filled with disbelief.
"Could it be that Little Rita has found a man!?"
"Ah... but thinking about it carefully, it seems quite normal? After all, Rita is young and beautiful, and her name doesn't sound as fierce as the captain's. She looks like she can easily win over any man."
"We're so sorry we're old and ugly!"
"..." Ragnar stared at the group of people speechlessly.
A group of stunningly beautiful women, whose natural beauty scores above 80, are arguing about this ridiculous thing.
...Was there something wrong with my leadership strategy? How did such a vibrant and energetic assault team turn into this?
Ah... I guess we should put the issue of collective retirement on the agenda after all.
