Qianjie snorted coldly, curled his lip, and then turned and walked outside.
"Where are you going, Thousand Tribulations?"
Kevin looked at Qianjie's retreating figure and couldn't help but ask.
"Go buy some ingredients, and when they get back, we'll have a big party."
The tone of Qianjie's words carried a hint of impatience, but the meaning behind them made everyone smile.
If Mebius is stubborn, then Qian Jie is not much different. Although he appears to be short-tempered and fierce on the surface, he actually has a soft side.
"Kevin, all we can do is believe, can't we?"
Aponia, watching Thousand Tribulations' departing figure, smiled and said.
"That's right, believe it, just believe it. Mei is so strong, and Airi is so powerful, the two of them will definitely defeat the End and return here."
Looking at the serious expressions on everyone's faces, Padofilis muttered to herself as if trying to comfort herself.
When Ellie and Mei come back, I'm going to take out all the money I've saved up during this time! I'll use it to throw a party!
Pado said silently to herself.
These little savings were originally intended as a reserve for unforeseen circumstances.
However, if one could exchange their personal savings for the safety of both of them, then this deal couldn't be more worthwhile.
The conversations between people on Earth were unknown to Huang Quan and Alicia on the moon, but they knew that their companions on Earth were thinking of them.
At this moment, they are standing on a desolate plain on the moon.
Not far in front of them was a gathering place of Honkai energy, enough to destroy the moon in an instant. If they were to interfere rashly, the force that erupted would be enough to shatter the entire moon, and the Earth would also be severely affected.
Therefore, Huang Quan and Alicia can only wait here, waiting for the end to come.
"Mei, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing Huang Quan looking somewhat dazed, Alicia smiled sweetly.
"It's nothing, I was just thinking... it's time to end this soon."
"The story will definitely have a happy ending, right?"
Alicia glanced at Mei beside her and tilted her head.
"Of course, if the outcome isn't good, then it proves that it's not the real ending of the story."
As he spoke, Huang Quan gripped the long sword in his hand tightly.
After a long incubation period, the enemy is finally about to descend!
Before Huang Quan, the pure white entity, composed of highly concentrated magic power and resembling a cocoon, revealed a few cracks.
Then, the crack slowly widened, like a cracked eggshell, and a figure slowly emerged from it.
His indifferent expression and the way he looked at Huang Quan as if he were an ant, both proved his identity.
The greatest enemy of civilization, the embodiment of the end, the lawgiver of the end.
"Are you the only two people who welcomed my birth? How boring."
She looked leisurely at Huang Quan and spoke.
Then, she smiled wryly and shook her head: "I thought I could play a little longer. Oh well, it seems you've given up resisting. In that case, let me finish you off here, and then grant this world its end."
"Oh dear, Mei, she seems to look down on us... like a bloated pufferfish!"
Alicia showed no expression when facing the Herrscher of the End.
Instead, he looked at the other person with a teasing expression.
Although the Herrscher of the End possessed the power to easily kill her, Alicia showed no sign of panic.
Because he knew that Huang Quan would protect her.
"Quack."
Impressed by Alicia's comparison, the Herrscher of the End glanced at Alicia and then pointed a finger in displeasure.
Sparkling starlight bloomed at her fingertips, and then, carrying a strike with enough power to shatter space, it struck toward Alicia!
With just a casual strike, the surrounding space was already scratched by the force of the blow.
This attack further convinced Huang Quan that it was the right decision not to send Kevin and the others.
Even Kevin, with all his might, could only withstand one attack of that level.
With Huang Quan's strength, defeating the opponent is possible, but protecting others while they are in the opponent's hands is a very difficult task.
In fact, she was confident in protecting one Alicia, but she wouldn't be able to handle more than that.
After all, human mental strength has its limits.
Huang Quan remained calm in the face of the sudden attack from the Herrscher of the End.
That attack was as fast as light in Alicia's eyes, but in Huang Quan's eyes, it was nothing special.
With just a simple parry, the scabbard appeared in the path of the beam of light.
Then, a blinding white light appeared.
When the flash disappeared and Alicia regained her vision, she saw Huang Quan's reassuring figure blocking her way.
"How thoughtful of you, Mei..."
At this moment, centered on Huang Quan and Alicia, the surrounding lunar surface was swept away, leaving a giant crater tens of kilometers in size.
This was the aftershock of that attack. It was just a casual strike, yet it was equivalent to the direct power of a regular Herrscher's full-force attack.
If Huang Quan hadn't absorbed most of the power, this pit would probably have expanded dozens of times more.
"Be careful, you can't get involved in the main battle."
"It is the Yellow Springs that instructed me," said JiuVII Liu Zhouyi.
"Don't worry, I understand. They value their lives very much."
With a smile and a nod, Alicia looked at the Herrscher of the End, but felt a little helpless.
What she said just now, besides being a joke, also meant to test the Herald of the End.
However, the opponent's decisiveness in attacking far exceeded Alicia's expectations.
The other party had no intention of wasting words with Alicia and Huang Quan, just as a person wouldn't waste words with an ant.
He exuded an air of superiority.
"You're quite interesting... but I hope you can keep me entertained!"
Looking at Huang Quan with great interest, the Herrscher of the End, whose expression had remained somewhat indifferent, finally showed a hint of interest.
In an instant, she arrived in front of Huang Quan and reached out to sweep her hand across Huang Quan's head.
Even a simple movement is filled with immense pressure.
Under the careful nurturing of Honkai, the Herrscher of the End born this time is infinitely close to becoming a Commander.
If the opponent appears in the world of the Collapsed Starry Sky Railway, no one except the Commander can defeat them.
The false messenger—this is the true power of the end.
Even a casual strike from the opponent, even just the aftershock, was enough to level the heavens and the earth.
However, Huang Quan did not panic at all in the face of such a fierce attack. Instead, he chose to extend his arm and raise his knife to block.
The next moment, in the direction of the opponent's punch, the lunar dust around Huang Quan's body swirled up, leaving only the hard lunar rock beneath the sand.
The other party didn't want to communicate with Huang Quan, and in fact, Huang Quan was too lazy to waste words with the other party.
The next moment, she raised her hand to repel the opponent, and then she lunged forward, brandishing her long sword with its sheath still in its hand.
Although the opponent is strong, he is still somewhat inferior to Huang Quan.
This is the moon, so Huang Quan has no more scruples and naturally no longer needs to suppress his full strength.
The enemy's offensive was fierce, with every move aimed at Huang Quan's vitals, seemingly intending to kill him quickly.
However, no matter how the Endless Lawyer attacked, Huang Quan's defense was watertight, giving the opponent no opportunity whatsoever.
"Boring. These alone are not enough to defeat me!"
Although the battle was always evenly matched, and she was even slightly at a disadvantage, the Herrscher of the End remained very calm.
After all, as Herrschers, their greatest strength is always only one thing: their authority.
As the End, her powers are also quite simple.
That is, control!
"clatter!"
A crisp snap of fingers rang out, and then, in that instant, everything around them seemed to freeze in place.
In the eyes of the Herrscher of the End, the dust flying everywhere due to the battle, or the worry in Alicia's eyes in the distance, were all clearly visible.
However, they are now forever frozen in that moment.
Looking at the Yellow Springs before him, the Herrscher of the End smiled with satisfaction, then stretched out his hand, intending to end the other's life.
But just as he was about to make a move, she caught a glimpse of Alicia, who was being protected by Huang Quan, not far away.
"You care about her a lot, so I'll end her life with my own hands right in front of you!"
As she spoke, the Herrscher of the End slowly stepped over Yomi's body and walked up to Alicia.
In this stagnant world, the Herrscher of the End admired Alicia's expression.
The girl's exquisite face perfectly displayed a hint of tenderness and worry.
Coupled with the current chaotic battlefield, it has a unique flavor.
"What a beautiful face, but... you will all die here today."
As she spoke, she reached out, intending to touch Alicia's cheek and, in doing so, snap her neck.
If this were a world of adult anime, a completely different story would probably unfold here.
However, just as the Herrscher of the End was about to make her move (Moon|Ripple first&release#).
