Collapse Iron: Today's mount is the female protagonist.

"Wendy, see you later."

"Yes, you can't keep me waiting too long."

The warmth eased the bitterness in their hearts and added a touch of beauty to the farewell. The two embraced quietly, and time seemed to slow down until Qi Shi's figure gradually faded and finally disappeared as specks of light, leaving them feeling empty in their arms.

Wait! I don't even know your name yet!

Wendy suddenly remembered something and asked anxiously. She suddenly realized that after spending so much time together, she had never asked the other person's name.

However, her cries went unanswered.

Looking at the now empty and quiet surroundings, a sense of emptiness and despondency enveloped my heart, and the joy I had felt from regaining my health seemed to have vanished as well.

It's true, they've already left...

The person who had always been by my side is no longer there.

She felt a pang of regret for not realizing this before, and also for not paying more attention to the time she spent with Qi Shi, instead focusing solely on the changes in her legs.

Wendy silently curled up on a chair in the garden.

"This is……"

Suddenly, she felt as if a warm and bright power had been left within her body, just like the help she had received in the space of consciousness, making her feel at ease, warm and powerful.

A warm current welled up in his depressed heart; was this the strength he had left for himself?

Wendy's tentative touch instantly sent a surge of heat through her body, like a warm embrace gently enveloping her, bringing both warmth and immense power.

In an instant, the world seemed different. The wind swirled between her fingers, as if she could control storms and rain with a single thought, unleashing devastating power.

But she quickly stopped this power, because once it was activated, the energy would begin to gradually dissipate. Wendy hid it deep inside her body like the most precious treasure.

This was all she had left, a memento of him.

She then sat in the garden for a long time, as if savoring the last vestiges of warmth. Wendy stayed there alone for a long time before whispering something in a voice only she could hear.

"You said you would definitely come back for me, you can't lie to me."

Meanwhile, Qi Shi had returned to the consciousness space of his most loyal mount, Kiana.

"We need to find a way to resolve Wendy's situation; we can't let her stay in the Oceania branch indefinitely," Qi Shi thought to himself, stroking his chin.

"And speaking of which, Bianca should be back from her mission soon."

However, before Qi Shi could think about things further, he met a pair of dangerous eyes as soon as he returned to his consciousness space.

A cool and arrogant voice rang out.

The woman with long, white hair, a beautiful face, and a seven-tenths resemblance to Kiana, but with a completely different temperament, was staring straight at him with a pair of golden eyes, exuding a dangerous and oppressive aura like that of a judge of the world.

Chapter 73 Queen of the Sky

The Queen of the Sky had an indifferent expression, her golden eyes looking down with the cold indifference of someone looking at an insect. Her figure floated silently in mid-air, with three golden wings of light growing behind her, and the Spears of the Void arranged in a protective array.

In fact, her consciousness had been restored a few days ago, but she was unable to fulfill her mission of bringing the Honkai to the world.

It all stemmed from the human before them. From the moment they were revived, they were imprisoned in this space, unable to connect with the gem or influence the body's will.

However, she is the Queen of the Sky, not Kiana who was terrified of the 'ghost' after seeing Qi Shi. Even in this situation where she has no way to resist, there is not a trace of fear on her cold and beautiful face.

Those golden eyes remained as cold as ice.

It highlights the spirit of not losing face even when losing a fight, and not being at a disadvantage in terms of momentum. Even if I have no way to deal with you, I will kill you with my eyes.

Qi Shi tried to communicate with him, but the other party was like a human machine, giving no response whatsoever, only staring at him with murderous golden eyes.

Qi Shi didn't insist on this. Since the other party was willing to remain silent, he continued doing his own thing as usual, except that there was now one more resident in the consciousness space.

And so she remained indifferent and refused to communicate. These past few days, the Queen of the Sky had watched Qi Shi appear and disappear, completely preoccupied with her own affairs and ignoring her, and she could do nothing about it.

She finally took the initiative to speak, which was actually the first real conversation between the two of them in the past few days.

With a cold, imposing voice, the Queen of the Sky looked at Qi Shi with no kindness in her eyes.

This is natural; she has a mission to judge the world, and in those remaining memories, there is a deep hatred for humanity and the world.

"Human, you..."

"I am not human." But before he could finish speaking, facing the immense hostility displayed by the Queen of the Sky, Qi Shi spread his hands with a completely calm expression, saying that he was no longer human.

Sorry, I cannot select it.

This left the Queen of the Sky speechless for a moment.

Some things are undeniable. They can easily imprison her and move freely between consciousness and space. The power they possess and their unique form of existence have nothing to do with humans. They seem to be some kind of more powerful being.

"Since that's the case, human, then you shouldn't stop me from bringing catastrophe to the ants on this planet," the Queen of the Sky said coldly.

In the end, she continued to refer to Qi Shi as 'human,' but this word was no longer a general term; it seemed to have become a specific designation.

What was originally called has degenerated into...

Human: Thank you so much!

Why must we destroy the world?

Qi Shi looked at the other person's expression, which was completely indifferent to everything, as if there was nothing else besides the mission of judgment.

Whether it was because she believed his existence qualified her to engage in dialogue, or because she was currently powerless to do anything and thus had some room for communication, the Queen of the Sky responded with aloofness.

"I am an extension of Sirin's will, the embodiment of decay, and I have been given a mission by the gods, destined to bring a catastrophe of judgment to this ugly and twisted world."

"Have you ever thought that the god you're talking about might actually be a 1.47-meter-tall, white-haired, flat-chested little girl?"

Hearing the other party's words about mission, Qi Shi suppressed a laugh and said, forcing a tight expression on his face like a strongman.

The so-called Honkai Will is actually Bronya! *Ahem*. The so-called Honkai Will is already incomplete.

In the pre-civilization era, Mebius implanted a Trojan horse called 'Prometheus' into the inner wall of the imaginary number, merging with the Honkai and thus gaining partial control over the Honkai, causing the mindless Honkai to tilt towards a definite and controllable future.

During this long mission, she witnessed all kinds of human emotions, and at the moment when she saw Dr. Mei, who had long taught and helped her grow, disregard everything for love, she awakened her self-awareness and became a 'life' named Prometheus with an image similar to Bronya.

Therefore, following the guidance of Honkai is actually quite difficult, because you don't know whether what guides you is the 'Honkai God' or an undercover agent sent by the other side.

But the Queen of the Sky showed no reaction to Qi Shi's earth-shattering words, only looking at him with a very cold gaze.

Perhaps what Qi Shi said wasn't spoken to her, but rather just a large creature emitting ultrasonic waves, making it even less likely that she could understand its meaning.

Seeing that the other party's emotions remained unchanged, Qi Shi had no choice but to try another approach: building rapport.

"Actually, I am a Herrscher of Corruption who survived the previous era, so we can be considered companions who judge the world together." His expression was completely unwavering as he spoke earnestly.

"Believe me, my fellow countrymen, I am currently lurking in the human world, carrying out an incredibly large and meticulous mission. If successful, it will bring about the end of the world ahead of schedule, and make the entire earth bow down at the feet of the end."

"Don't bother me during this time. Once we successfully achieve our KPIs, we'll go back together to collect our rewards. We'll all have bright futures."

Listening to Qi Shi's nonsense, the Herrscher of the Void simply stared at him without saying a word, and after a long while, coldly uttered, "I've seen through you."

"You are not a Herrscher, you are human, and you do not possess the aura of a god."

Although the other party could control Honkai energy and possessed various powers, she could not sense any trace of Honkai in Qi Shi. In her eyes, he was more like a different kind of higher being that was somewhat different from Honkai.

Moreover, although rational analysis told her that the other party's behavior was definitely not human, the emotions stemming from Sirin's will told her that this person was human and was on the side of humanity.

He's still a very bad human being, and this feeling is especially strong when the other person lies to you with a straight face.

"That's because I was lying in wait, so I concealed my presence," Qi Shi said without batting an eye.

This time, the Queen of the Sky simply stopped responding to him and ignored Qi Shi's words completely. She reverted to her previous uncommunicative demeanor.

To be precise, we have never been able to communicate.

The Queen of the Sky's words were not a conversation; her goal from beginning to end was to get Qi Shi to let her leave.

Seeing that things had turned out this way again, Qi Shi was not surprised. The other party was a Herrscher personality that was an incarnation of Honkai, and also possessed the deep-seated hatred of humanity in Sirin's will. He was definitely not someone who could put aside his prejudices in just a few words.

"Since you don't want to talk anymore, then I'll leave."

"But you're bored staying alone in the consciousness space, so why don't you do something to pass the time? You're a Herrscher with an infinite lifespan, maybe you can outlive me and kill me."

Before leaving, Qi Shi seemed thoughtful, but in reality, he left a gift with malicious intent.

A game console, and various novels and comics.

The World Bubble is another branch of the original world. Since A-Quan exists in the World Bubble, it must mean that this change of route is useful.

Therefore, the conclusion is that playing games is one way to defeat the Queen!

After watching the man's figure leave this space, the Queen of the Sky looked at the pile of game consoles, novels, and comics. Her proud and beautiful eyes were completely calm. She raised her hand, and an invisible force surged forth, cutting the pile of things into pieces. Then she continued to wait silently.

Qi Shi, who had already left, naturally sensed this scene within the consciousness space and was not disappointed.

It certainly won't go smoothly at first, but judging from the Queen of the Sky's appearance, her plan to transform A-Queen is going to be a long and arduous one.

Chapter 74 Rita: "Lady Durandal's private affairs?"

A spaceship slowly docked on Destiny Sky Island.

The hatch opened, and a group of Valkyries disembarked, looking travel-worn. It was the Undying Blade squad, returning to base after completing their mission. The young Valkyries finally relaxed, and some Undying Blade members even stretched and let out a light groan.

They're finally back.

The two S-rank Valkyries walked at the very back. Rita looked at Bianca, wanting to invite her to take a bath and relax after such a long mission. However, she saw that after getting off the spaceship, Lady Durandal was walking in a hurry and she didn't know what she was going to do.

This behavior puzzled her, or rather, Lady Durandal's behavior had been rather strange lately, and she would sometimes stare blankly at the campfire.

This is something that rarely happens to Lady Durandal, who is always conscientious and responsible.

"Lady Durandal, aren't you going to relax at the newly built hot spring at headquarters, as everyone said?"

Rita never suppressed her curiosity and smoothly asked the question, taking advantage of the previous discussion among the other members.

"No, Rita, you and everyone else should relax. I have other things to do, so I won't be going this time."

When asked, Bianca waved her hand in polite refusal, which made Rita even more puzzled.

As her adjutant, she was very familiar with Bianca's daily life and knew well that Lady Durandal had a very routine life, so what else could she possibly be doing now that she had completed her mission?

Recalling the other person's previous behavior, he was often lost in thought, and his smiles became much less frequent.

She remembered the previous incident about the other party being summoned by the World Bubble. Could it be that he was worried about the dangers of those worlds?

Thinking of this, Rita couldn't help but say with concern.
