Feeling his body being oppressed to the point of being unable to move, Hen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and spoke in a slightly relaxed tone, but in response he got an inexplicable force wrapping around his neck, pressing on his throat. "Make that thing go away." It controlled the force around Hen and squeezed Hen's body bit by bit. The force was so huge that even the body of a fusion warrior could not withstand it. The sound of Hen's bones cracking could be faintly heard. Obviously, it has realized that it has fallen into a trap. "Why don't you try to escape? Like you did before." Hen was still smiling and didn't seem to care much. Anyway, Kevin is in position now, and it has entered the attack range of [Heavenly Fire Judgment]. Even if it wants to escape now, it will be useless. As long as it shows even the slightest intention of [escape], Kevin will activate [Heavenly Fire Judgment] and give it a hard blow. Hen believed that Kevin would definitely do it. "I just don't want to argue with you guys." It gave its reasons and then said.
"Take that thing away and I'll let you go." "You are afraid, Herrscher." Hen chuckled. "From this point of view, you are no different from us humans... You are also afraid of death." "Let that thing be removed, and I can promise not to kill you." Seeing that Hen was still talking nonsense and even seemed very relaxed, it became a little anxious. "Or do you want to be buried here with me? Die at the hands of humans, at the hands of your companions?" "What's not allowed?" "........." Hen's matter-of-fact tone made it pause. "And your negotiation skills are terrible. Is it true that the minds of Herrschers are mostly occupied by madness and the desire to kill?" Hen sighed, as if he didn't realize that he could be killed by it at any time. "Or do you think you can leave by taking me as a hostage?" "Isn't it?" It asked back. "You are the strong ones among humans, the ones who protect them, and you are a rare existence... If one of you is sacrificed, your fighting power will be greatly affected." "I'll let you go and let you return alive, saving the precious fighting power of mankind. Isn't that good?" Its tone was very calm, which made people easily think of the way Xi Wang usually spoke. "And then let you continue to destroy and kill?"
"........." It doesn't speak anymore. But Hen laughed at this. "You are afraid, Herrscher." What responded to Hen was the increasingly terrifying pressure on his body. The huge and twisting force almost crushed his bones. "Take that thing away." Its expression became somewhat gloomy, and its tone became cold, and it no longer promised to let Hen go. "So... say..." Hen endured the increasingly difficult breathing and forced himself to move his arms little by little, stretching them in front of him. Close your four fingers and extend your thumb, while slowly rotating your arm so that your thumb gradually changes from facing the sky to facing the ground. "Your negotiation skills...are terrible...Herrscher." In the distance, Kevin, who was surrounded by high temperatures, looked at all this indifferently and slowly tightened his grip on the flaming sword. Hope...hasn't come yet? It’s too late... Kevin was anxious inside, but his face could not show even the slightest hesitation. He also hoped that when Hen was restrained by the [Herrser], he would appear in time to take Hen away, so that he could have no worries when releasing the [Heavenly Fire Judgement]. He also didn't want to destroy Hen with his own hands, kill his predecessors and his comrades, so he was willing to help Xi Wang and willing to disobey orders and delay the time of releasing [Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment] and launching the attack, even if it was only for one minute. However, the premise of all this is to be able to kill the Herrscher. This is Kevin's bottom line, or the bottom line of all the fusion warriors participating in the war, and it is something that everyone knows. Even if it means sacrificing a fusion warrior and reducing humanity's already precious combat power, the Herrscher must be killed... Only in this way can the Great Collapse be stopped and this disaster be put to an end. But when it really came to this critical moment... Kevin was still a little hesitant, especially when he knew that Hen might be saved. Even though I know that Xi Wang’s arrival may not change anything, but... there is still hope. What if? Right? People always look forward to low-probability events like "miracles". It’s a pity that it seems... impossible now. "……Feel sorry." Kevin murmured softly, as if he wanted to convey his words to Xi Wang who was still on his way and Hen who could no longer be saved. "Wait, Kevin, the one minute Captain Wang mentioned hasn't even come yet, you..."
"It's too late." The sudden rise in temperature made the sound in the communication become blurred, and Kevin just responded calmly. He drew out the scarlet greatsword and pointed the tip of the sword at the Herrscher in the distance. The flames danced restlessly, cheering around Kevin. Rather than letting the Herrscher kill Hen and then escape, leading to unpredictable consequences, it is better to deal with it now. And I will also bear the sin of [killing my companion]... just like before. What happened with the Sixth Herrscher...cannot happen again. It's all for humanity. Everything is done to eliminate the collapse. Everything around was on fire, and everything became fuel for the fire. The flames began to boil and roar, dyeing the night sky red. Amidst the red flames, he was the only one still standing with the sword in hand. Kevin looked into the distance, his eyes never leaving Hen and its body, but now their bodies became distorted... The flames had blocked Kevin's sight. If only Hen could be rescued, if only Wang could arrive, if only... But now it seems that it is no longer possible. But, what if? If it was him... The one who could move in and out of the Seventh Herrscher with a human body, the one who was madly targeted by the Eighth Herrscher, but finally survived to the end and even recovered...can he save Hen? Kevin remained silent, and then swung the sword in his hand. [Skyfire Unsheathed] The flames came like a wave. [Herrser] sensed it, noticed it, but so what? All this happened in a moment. It was just a simple action like raising your hand and swinging your sword. How much time could it take? The flames of destruction appeared before their eyes in an instant. However, this flame seemed to be weaker than expected. Although it was still fierce, it was slightly different from the power that should have been unleashed by [Heavenly Fire Judgment] as expected. But it doesn't know all this. "whispering sound……" It just didn't expect that humans would be so decisive and actually willing to give up a fusion warrior to kill it... How cold-blooded and ruthless. It could feel that the incoming flames could take its life, but fortunately, it was not completely unprepared.
With a slight movement of his fingertips, he directly controlled Hen to block in front of him... Anyway, he didn't expect Hen to help him resist the flames. As long as Hen died before him, he would die in the hands of humans themselves. It sneered, and began to display its own strength based on Hen's body, trying to shape Hen's body into a small "black hole" to absorb as much flame as possible, while at the same time fully exerting its own [power] around it to reduce the damage it suffered. As for the human who initiated the attack... Humph! He will forever bear the guilt of killing his companion! And it will escape, will continue to live, and then will kill all the humans you are protecting and destroy existing civilization! It thought so, then turned around and tried to escape under the remaining flames... It could do it, absolutely. "Humph, want to escape?!" However, a slightly strange sound was heard behind me. A charred and twisted arm grabbed it and dragged it to the spot. "You're not dead?!" At this moment, even it, as a Herrscher, was somewhat frightened... With its power and such fierce flames, he was still alive? ! "Don't underestimate us, Herrscher." He saw a body that was burnt black but constantly healing itself grinning at him. Unfortunately, he didn't have much strength left, and the best he could do was to pull it and prevent it from leaving. What a pity... that guy is still a little late... That's true, after all, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, and it would be too difficult to get here within six minutes. Hen didn't have much expectation of being rescued. Although he was very grateful to Xi Wang for coming to save him, he had already prepared himself for sacrifice. It's all for humanity. It's just...Grace... Hen's smile turned somewhat bitter at this moment. But at this moment, Hen suddenly smelled a hint of dampness, but it was fleeting, as if it was an illusion, or as if it was completely evaporated by the fierce flames. A huge impact came from the side, forcibly taking him away from the flames. And at that moment, the flames that should have been fierce and destructive became a little weaker, and it seized this precious moment, fiddling with the [Power], and forcibly pulled itself away from the flames... and then was cut on the arm by the attacking water blade. The water blade, formed by the compression and convergence of unknown amount of "water", left the most conspicuous scar on its body. The pain at that moment was even greater than the pain of being burned by flames. If the flames had not weakened at that moment, it would have been unable to escape. If it had not remained alert and avoided it in advance, half of its body would have been cut off. If its [power] had not still been in effect and deflected the water blade, one of its arms would have been broken. But unfortunately, it still survived. Although Hen was saved, no one was happy and Xi Wang's slightly angry shouts echoed in the field. "What are you doing?! Kevin?!" "........." Kevin didn't respond, but looked a little surprised. He saw the "river" coming from the sky, and naturally guessed that it was Xi Wang coming.
When he saw Xi Wang rushing into the flames without hesitation, even giving up the water flowing around him and trying to withstand the flames to save Hen, he... subconsciously withdrew his hand. He should have increased his output, further unleashing the power of [Heavenly Fire Holy Judgement] to kill [The Herrisher] in one fell swoop...but the moment Xi Wang appeared, he reduced his output instead. At that moment, he chose his companions, expecting Xi Wang to rescue Hen, hoping that both of them could survive. As a price to pay, the Herrscher... survived. When Kevin wanted to remedy the situation, it was too late. The repeated death threats made it angry, and the feeling of approaching death made it afraid. It doesn't want to die. It must... resist.
