Chapter 41: Chase, Opening and Closing His Eyes

On the other side, Cheng Lixue looked at the fallen members of the former Snow Wolf Squad with a complicated expression.

She volunteered to help her master, but when it came to taking action against her friends, she couldn't help but feel a bit melancholic.

She collaborated with Patricia to administer drugs to all the members of the Snow Wolf Squad, hoping they wouldn't blame her when they woke up.

"Sigh..." Cheng Lixue sighed.

She was Fu Hua's disciple, adopted by her at the age of five. Fu Hua taught her to read, write, play the zither, and practice martial arts.

And now, the time had come to repay her master, but it was happening under these circumstances...

.......

The battle between Theresa and Welt continued, and Otto was getting impatient.

It had been some time, and according to logic, Schicksal's reinforcements should have arrived, or at least there should be some news.

He tried to contact those Valkyries, but his communication attempts were like dropping a stone into the ocean—no responses at all.

Otto glanced at Welt, who was busy dealing with Theresa, and then at Chase, who had long retreated and was gesturing for Welt to retreat. Otto's mood wasn't good.

Hadn't the Second Herrscher shown up yet?

But if Chase retreated again, who knew when they would capture the Second Herrscher.

So, he opened communication and gave the order:

"Launch the Honkai energy conventional weapons, coordinates..."

In no time, on the horizon, many dazzling fireworks with trailing flames rose. No, those were missiles rushing towards them.

Otto, with an expressionless face, watched the indiscriminate bombardment of missiles approaching. Without any panic, he took out the Judas Covenant created by the Fenghuang Down.

With the intensity of this missile bombardment, it was impossible for Otto to withstand it with his soulium body.

Welt, who was being restrained by Theresa, paid no attention to the others. The only one who could come out to protect Chase was...

Otto's lips curled involuntarily. This way, the Second Herrscher should show up.

[Otto, in order to lure out the Second Herrscher, has launched the Honkai energy weapons in this area.]

[You calmly watch the approaching missiles and Welt Yang, who is being restrained by Theresa, with no ripples in your heart.]

Because...

The Honkai energy weapons launched by Otto towards this area were intercepted in mid-air.

A formidable electromagnetic barrier, covering the entire sky, enveloped the area. The kinetic energy of the Honkai energy weapons rapidly dissipated upon entering this barrier until it finally came to a complete stop.

A girl with long gray hair floated in mid-air, lightning flickering in her pupils, looking at Otto with an unfriendly gaze.

This person was the one who abducted her big brother, angered Queen Sirin, and ultimately became the culprit blamed by Sirin.

Bella looked at Otto and thought he deserved to die. Just now, he even wanted to bombard her big brother with missiles. If she hadn't reacted quickly, Sirin would have blamed her again.

Bella felt bitter in her heart. But soon, she noticed Chase, who was staring at her from the ground. His previously gloomy face suddenly brightened, like the sun shining on melting snow.

Excitedly waving her hand, Bella called out, "Big Brother!"

Chase nodded helplessly, smiled, indicating that he understood. Then he looked at Otto and found that he seemed to be in a predicament.

A silent void suddenly appeared behind Otto, and two virtual bands extended from it. In a short period, they tore Otto's soulium body into pieces.

Chase: ????

Welt: ????

Theresa: ????

No way, is it over? Chase and Welt exchanged glances, each reading clear confusion in the other's eyes.

Seeing her grandfather giving up like this, Theresa also abandoned the idea of continuing the fight and quickly withdrew from the battlefield, preparing to leave.

After all, her grandfather had more than one body to use. Even if he died, it wasn't really death.

Chase also understood this principle and hurriedly approached Welt.

"Otto may have other bodies; be cautious," Chase reminded.

"I think so too. Let's retreat for now," Welt nodded, agreeing with Chase's thoughts. At the same time, he called down Bella, who was coming from the sky.

Sirin's figure appeared behind them, looking unhappy. "It's really unnecessary to fight. It's really unnecessary to fight."

(.o︿o.)

Chase patted Sirin's head comfortingly. "Sirin, don't be sad. This old bishop's soul can't be extinguished so easily. Even I don't know how many spare bodies he has."

Then, Chase looked at Welt and pointed to Theresa, who was preparing to retreat, "Should we snatch her Judas?"

Welt's expression was initially puzzled, but then he realized.

Two Herrschers against one Theresa—there was absolutely no problem with that. Plus, it could add a God Key to the entropy, which was indeed a good idea.

Theresa: ????

(?_?)

She regretted it. She really shouldn't have accompanied her grandfather into this mess. What on earth was happening? Not only did the promised support not arrive, but her grandfather's soulium body was also blown up.

Looking at the members of Anti-Entropy, who were glaring at her and her Judas, Theresa felt bitter and hesitated on whether to run or fight.

And at that moment, a sudden change occurred.

Chase's expression instantly turned painful. His body exploded, and blood sprayed out. Then, he felt the Honkai energy in his body deactivate in an instant, and his body fell powerless to the ground. Unprepared, Welt and Selin were also caught in the explosion, blood splattering all over them. Before they could react to this sudden turn of events, they found that their Honkai energy inside had actually deactivated.

"Hehehe, the collaboration of two Herrschers really makes it a bit difficult for me." Otto's voice came from not far away. Using the Judas he had just taken from Theresa, he directly bound Bella, who had come to support.

The Judas's covenant, as a restraint key, had the ability to neutralize Honkai energy. Once it truly bound Bella, a Judgement-class Honkai beast, her struggles became meaningless efforts.

"Herrschers are indeed different. In the first attack against the Second Herrscher, I thought the dosage wasn't enough. The Second Herrscher, who was hit by the Herrscher killer, can still activate abilities to block me for a while." Otto, carrying the Judas, walked towards Chase and the others, talking to himself.

"Even though I implanted a bomb with a sufficient dose of the Herrscher killer into my dear son's body, it still couldn't directly disable your combat abilities."

Saying that, Otto looked at the fallen Chase, "But what surprised me is that, my dear son, even though the bomb exploded inside you, not only did you not die on the spot, but you haven't even lost consciousness."

"I've seen your medical examination report, and there's nothing remarkable about it..." Otto walked up to Chase, using his heels to press on Chase's head.

"Perhaps you really have an extraordinary talent, but it seems to be in resisting beatings..."
