"You can't see me, you can't see me." Poor Susanna had just arrived in Sky City for less than half an hour when she was caught up in this disaster. As a recognized logistics Valkyrie, Susanna felt that her combat experience over the past few years combined was not as exciting as this one. "Didn't Alvette say that this city is the safest place? How come it is more dangerous than I imagined?" Susanna lowered her breathing as she continued to complain about her friend in her heart. However, the next second, the spear shot through the ruins and pierced into the concrete floor almost close to the girl's body. "Ahh." Susanna, who was frightened to death, no longer dared to hide, and crawled out of the ruins before the Honkai beast came close. Roar. The prey appeared, and the lance in the Honkai Beast's hand immediately lit up, and it chased towards Susanna with an unstoppable momentum. "Whoa, stop chasing me." Unfortunately, the Honkai beast behind her couldn't understand human language and continued to rush towards her. Fortunately, as a B-rank Valkyrie, Susanna's physical fitness is not bad. It's just that because of her weak temperament, everyone will subconsciously protect her behind them during every mission, so that many people forget that each Valkyrie is an elite selected from thousands of people. Therefore, even though it looked dangerous, it was actually always just a little short of the mark. If one were a little calmer, it would not be difficult to eliminate these knights with the weapons they carried.
However, she herself was obviously unaware of this and only dared to run away desperately. "We must find Master Suchang as soon as possible." Originally, the task of investigating Sky City should not have fallen on her, but after the Pacific disaster, Honkai broke out frequently all over the world, and there were too many Valkyries who could fight. Susanna was asked to investigate Sky City because Li Sushang was here. As long as they met successfully, there was no need to worry about safety. As a result, as soon as they got off the transport ship, they were attacked by the Honkai beast before they even saw the shadow of Li Suchang. In order to avoid civilian casualties, Susanna could only use herself as bait to attract the Honkai beasts to escape towards the no-man's land. "Don't be afraid, Susanna, don't be afraid. You are also a senior Valkyrie who participated in the disaster in the Far East. You will not be stopped by such difficulties." Susanna kept cheering herself up in her heart and adjusted her breathing as much as possible. "I have to think about what Lord Yulandel would do at this time." Susanna felt her courage rise as Bianca's heroic figure appeared in her mind. However, she soon discovered that Yulandel would probably only need a casual shot to kill a Honkai beast of this level. "I really can't learn this kind of operation." The girl looked back at the group of Honkai beasts with a crying voice, but what surprised her was that the Honkai beasts chasing her seemed to have shifted their targets and gathered in another direction. "Oh no." She realized that she had run back to the living area in a panic. A red-haired woman passed by and attracted the attention of the Honkai beast for her. "Danger!" Without much thought, Susanna burst out with strength far beyond her own limit and rushed towards the group of Honkai beasts, successfully protecting the woman before the lance pierced through her. But this would expose Susanna's own body to the attack of the Honkai beast. The girl closed her eyes in fear, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind. If you get hit, it will hurt a lot, right? But if you die immediately, will you not feel any pain? Just as Susanna was daydreaming, the expected pain did not come, but instead she fell into a soft embrace. She opened her eyes carefully, only to see a wisp of fluttering red hair. The scene flashed before her eyes, and the woman she was supposed to protect took her away from the encirclement of the Honkai beast. Before Susanna could react, the huge Honkai beast was neatly cut in half by the greatsword. "Eh?" …… On a high-rise building in the fringe area. The scene that just happened was reflected in the black cat's eyes. Seeing that Susanna was out of danger, Su Mao, who had been observing the situation, silently retracted his claws. "It seems that I don't need to save people myself." Su Jue breathed a sigh of relief. He was currently injured. If he forcibly used the cat clone's abilities, it would inevitably add a lot of burden.
Susanna is a person of destiny. She came to Sky City with complete entry certificates. If she encounters an accident in Sky City, it will definitely attract Otto's attention. If Ji Zi rescues people, a lot of trouble can be avoided. He tilted his head to look at Li Suchang beside him. The Beanman controlled by the opponent was just squeezed into the void by other players. The girl's expression was visibly angry, and she wanted to send a Taixu Sword God to the opponent through the network cable. After seeing that this girl from 500 years ago was being tortured by the malice of modern people and was completely addicted to video games, Su Jue got up and left the game hall. From what he had just seen from Ji Zi, Su Jue also discovered that something was wrong. Although the Sky City has not yet been completed, it is a city transformed by Su Jue after all. It has the power of the Ruler as protection. Under normal circumstances, the Honkai Beasts would not have the courage to invade the city. Su Jue called up the monitoring records he had set up in the city. The records showed that the concentration of Honkai energy around Tianqiong City had been on the rise since half an hour ago. High concentrations of Honkai energy will naturally attract Honkai beasts to gather. Perhaps these Honkai beasts are stimulated by the energy and choose to break through the defense network. "Were you attracted by Kiana's Herrscher aura?" This is the most reasonable explanation, but Su Jue always feels that it shouldn't be that simple. The battle between Kiana and Li Sushang was huge, but that was only on display. The Taixu Sword Qi was originally a technique to restrain Honkai energy. When the two of them fought with Taixu Sword Qi, it was impossible for such a large-scale leak to occur. Of course, there is another possibility. These Honkai beasts might have been driven by the Pacific War a few days ago. Su Jue couldn't predict what kind of impact this disaster that affected half of the earth would bring. The Far East had completely fallen, most of the land had sunk into the sea, and Shenzhou, which was not far from the coastline, would inevitably be affected. Is this really the only reason? The uneasiness in his heart did not dissipate, Su Jue frowned. He was in Tianqiong City at the moment, if there was a large-scale collapse, he would not be unaware of it. Compared with the possibility of a large-scale collapse, he felt that it was more likely that someone did it deliberately. However, there is no evidence at present. If one really wants to find out, it is not difficult. One only needs to unlock one's own authority and use the thread of control that covers the entire city to investigate. However, in this way, his plan to hide himself and deceive Taixu Sword God was also declared to be ruined, which was not worth the loss. "Let's take it one step at a time." Su Jue sighed and temporarily kept the matter of the Honkai beast in mind. With Ji Zi around, if it was just a small-scale beast tide, it shouldn't have much of an impact. As long as I can handle Li Suchang's matter myself, it won't take much time to investigate later. However, if you want to obtain Taixu Sword God, you have to resolve Kiana’s issue first. In order to save trouble, Su Jue set Kiana's authority too high, so that even he could not locate her in real time. If she interfered again in the next plan, it would be a trouble for him. It just so happens that since Ji Zi has finally shown up after leaving the Domination Theater, as long as she is sent back to Kiana, she will definitely not stay in this city, and then no matter what Su Jue does, it will not be affected. Hope everything goes well. Chapter 254 Mysterious Jumping Snake Time always slips away from us inadvertently, turning into the silence of the night, making the thick night even darker. The moon was setting in the west, and everything was quiet. It was already four in the morning, and even the most energetic young people were a little sleepy. The sounds in the game hall became sparse, and the players who lived nearby went home early to rest. Those who lived far away could only find an empty seat and lie down for a few minutes. In the entire game room, perhaps only in the corner near the window, the intense sound of keystrokes showed no signs of fatigue. Li Suchang, who had fought for a whole night, looked focused. He chose the right moment to push a certain Beanman off the platform. Finally, after hundreds of failures, he was the first to cross the finish line.
"First place, great." Li Suchang's cheers rang out in the game hall. Many drowsy players were startled by her, but when they looked at the source of the voice, their dissatisfaction instantly disappeared. Who can resist the cheers of a cute girl? "Su Jue, did you see that? You're the first place." Li Suchang was so excited that she smiled happily. She subconsciously wanted to hear Su Jue's praise, but unfortunately, after two seconds, she didn't get the expected response. She turned her head to look beside her and found that the boy who had been with her all the time had fallen asleep on the game console without her knowing. "Su Jue?" Only then did she remember that Su Jue was not like her. His body had been baptized by true Qi, so he would not feel tired even if he stayed up late. He is just an ordinary person who gets tired and sleepy, not to mention he was injured before he came with me. It is already commendable that he has insisted on staying with me until now. But she still felt a little empty in her heart. The smile on her face faded. Li Suchang let go of the joystick of the game console. She suddenly felt that even if she got first place, it would still be a bit boring. Su Jue always gets first place. Compared with him, my achievement is nothing. Li Suchang, who was somewhat bored, was also lying on the game console, looking at Su Jue with her face sideways. The boy seemed particularly quiet while sleeping. He didn't snore loudly like those rough men who practiced martial arts, nor did he sleep restlessly like other people. He just rested his head lightly on his arms, as quiet as a motionless puppet. The moonlight at 3:00 pm was already a little dim, and the dim light shone through the window onto the two of them. Even in his deep sleep, there seemed to be an indelible sadness between the boy's brows. Looking at Su Jue's sad and handsome face, Li Suchang suddenly matched it with the figure in her memory. 500 years ago, when I first met that man, he was like this, carrying a sadness so heavy that it suffocated him. I was still young at that time, and I didn't understand why that man was sad, nor what he was seeking. I just vaguely felt that what the man was pursuing was the salvation of the person he loved. Li Suchang didn’t understand these things, but as her first friend in 15 years, she didn’t want to disappoint her friend. Unfortunately, it was not successful in the end. The Rakshasa's wish turned into 500 years of time, and along with it was Li Suchang's 500-year dream. Now that she was awakened by Otto again, Li Suchang could clearly feel that he was no longer the pure idealist he once was, nor was he the seeker who could only helplessly beg the immortal for help. So, as your second friend, Su Jue, what are you sad about? …… "Forget it, it's useless for me to think about these things. Now there are so many new and interesting things, it's really fun." Li Suchang dispelled the sudden emotions in her mind and stood up again. "Come to think of it, now that I am capable enough to get the first place, I might as well give him back the points that Su Jue lost before." Thinking of this, Li Suchang switched the account to Su Jue's and logged into the game again. However, after entering the game, she was a little dumbfounded. The game did not enter the player's game interface, but appeared on a brand new platform. "Hiss." A strange sound was heard. Li Suchang turned the perspective of the little man and saw that there was a character named [Mysterious Jumping Snake] on the platform in front. "Hmm? Do you want me to chase after him?" Roughly guessing the other party's intention, Li Suchang controlled the little man to chase after him. Her skills were good, and the jumping platforms did not stop her. However, every time she was about to catch the opponent, this veiled jumping snake would always cross a long distance and appear in a new position. "Damn it! Don't let me catch you!" Li Suchang had not yet recovered from the torture she had suffered at the hands of the players. She could not stand this and immediately jumped onto the broken platform. But this time, when she landed on the platform, a large number of snake copies poured out of the pipe and rushed towards her like a tide.
"His-" Listening to the strange sound of the jumping snake, Li Suchang always felt that there was a hint of sarcasm in it. She snorted coldly, controlled the character to easily break free from the snake's encirclement, and finally trapped it in the corner on the last platform. "Okay, now let me see what secrets this extra level has." Unexpectedly, the jumping snake did not resist, but exploded and disappeared, leaving only some residual text and a black gem on the spot. The item sequences of the gems were all codes that Li Suchang did not recognize, but the text information, although jumbled, was still clearly written. Unfortunately, Li Suchang, who had practiced martial arts since childhood, had never read much. Only her master occasionally taught her some simple words. She was a standard illiterate and could only recognize a few words in a long paragraph. "...Hersher's Core...Sky City...Su..." She scratched her head and looked at the screen in distress. In the end, she could only recognize these few words. "Ah, what exactly is written on it?" The more this happened, the more curious Li Suchang became. She didn't want to lose sight of the truth after working so hard to obtain the information because she couldn't read. After considering it again and again, she pushed Su Jue's shoulder to wake him up. "What's wrong?" Su Jue opened his eyes and saw Li Suchang's impatient expression. He was not angry because the other party woke him up forcibly, but just asked with some curiosity. "Help me see what's written here. I... I can't read." When talking about her illiteracy, Li Suchang blushed for a rare moment. After all, she was a female knight traveling around the world, and it was really embarrassing to be stopped by someone who could read. Su Jue smiled, amused by the girl's embarrassed posture, but when he looked at the screen, he was a little confused, "What do you want me to identify?" "That's all... Huh?" There was only the loading interface of the game lobby on the screen. The previous game screen seemed to have automatically exited because there was no operation for too long. "Eh? How could this happen?" Li Suchang was completely dumbfounded. She sat there blankly for a long time without coming back to her senses. After a while, she said aggrievedly, "I really didn't lie to you. When I logged into your character just now, I found a new interface. After I cleared the level, I found a message left inside. I wanted to write that message down, but it's gone now." "New interface?" Su Jue frowned after hearing Li Suchang's description. "I often play games here. Many people know that my account is ranked first in the scoreboard. Maybe someone wants to pass information through my account. Do you still remember the part you know?" "It seems to be the Herrscher core or something." "Herrs Core? What is that?" Su Jue was puzzled upon hearing this new term. He guessed, "Maybe it's some kind of gem. Maybe someone is smuggling gems through game consoles. If this is true, then we might be in trouble. We might be involved in an underground transaction, and our lives might even be in danger." "Ah?" Li Suchang was a little surprised to hear that her life was in danger, but she immediately patted her chest and promised: "This incident was caused by me. I will protect you." Su Jue was somewhat touched by the girl's serious attitude. He smiled and said, "That's not necessary. But if you encounter this situation again in the future, you can take a photo with your mobile phone and then give it to me for identification." "Take pictures with your phone?" "This is it." Su Jue pointed to the mobile phone that he had given to Li Suchang and explained, "This is an excellent creation of modern technology. It can not only communicate, but also take pictures and record. If you need help, just press a button to call someone." Under Su Jue's guidance, Li Suchang held the jade-like mobile phone somewhat unfamiliarly, tapping the screen with her slender fingers to light it up. "password?" This phone was for Su Jue's own use. When he gave it to Li Suchang, he was only concerned with locating it and even forgot to cancel the password. "The password is 1207." After entering the password, Li Suchang looked at the screen in surprise, "I didn't expect that there could be so many things hidden in this small screen." "This is the camera function. If you encounter something you don't understand, you can take a picture first." While teaching Li Suchang how to use the mobile phone, Su Jue was also observing whether he had forgotten to clear anything. Fortunately, the content was very clean.
"Just press here to take a picture, record a video, and take a picture of yourself." Li Suchang got the hang of it very quickly. She was surprised to see her own appearance on the screen, and immediately pressed the button after hearing Su Jue's instructions. Su Jue didn't expect her to move so quickly. Just as he was about to move away, the photo was already taken. Although my image was blurry, half of my face was still captured. "Delete it, this one is not appropriate. You can take your own photo later." Su Jue frowned and advised. Fortunately, Li Suchang was very obedient and immediately pressed the delete button, but she paused when the confirmation pop-up appeared. After all, this was her first time using a mobile phone and taking photos, so did she really want to delete it?
