Chapter 67: Friend or Foe, Choose
In the end, the Doomsday Beast didn't cause any casualties.
Only a world where the "Stellaron Spirit" became a clown was realized.
"Did the Doomsday Beast drop some gold coins?"
Stelle pouted and walked forward, looking at the golden chest that had dropped from the Doomsday Beast. She could feel a powerful, destructive energy contained within it and couldn't help but observe it curiously.
Kenji knew what it was. It was a weekly boss material dropped by the Doomsday Beast.
Poor Doomsday Beast. Even after being defeated, it still had to stay in the weekly boss instance, either getting farmed for materials or being used as a test subject for nukes by powerful players.
"The Destroyer's Final Road." It was said to contain the yet-to-die will of an ancient beast. As long as you didn't open the chest, the will of the ancient beast wouldn't cause any trouble, but...
Open—
Stelle, a true fearless calf, tried to pry open the chest with brute force.
BOOM!
A wave of destructive energy erupted. Stelle, at the center of the blast, was completely enveloped by it. The Stellaron inside her was also affected, and it began to release a violent energy.
Godfather, save me!
Stelle was a little panicked now. She couldn't control her own body. The power inside her was about to make her explode. She really couldn't take it anymore; she was about to be filled up.
Kenji scratched his head. Is this the world's corrective force at work?
"It's the smell of a madman," the mask let out a strange laugh.
"Is it the big boss you elbow-dropped?"
Although Aha always said he had no face, there were very few Aeons who wanted to play happily with him.
"That's right. Aha is going to go play with the madman~"
Aha let out a wicked laugh and disappeared. He was preparing for a long-awaited reunion with Nanook in the Path of Presences.
The strongest Emanator of Trailblaze strikes!
Kenji was speechless. He had no idea what kind of mischief Aha would get up to.
Stelle's consciousness entered the Path of Presences. Whispers echoed in her ears.
Finally, she saw a giant figure with a huge wound on its chest. The golden blood that flowed from the wound was filled with an incomparably pure destructive aura.
He was the Aeon of Destruction—Nanook, the Aeon who presided over destruction in the Honkai: Star Rail universe.
Among the Aeons, Nanook's looks were quite impressive. The people on the path of Destruction all had great faces, as if they were handpicked by Nanook himself.
Nanook glanced at Stelle, and Stelle glared back. What are you looking at?
"****"
Suddenly, music started to play.
A figure wearing a mask, a black top, and overalls appeared before them, attacking Nanook.
Iron Mountain Lean?
Little black fan?
Stelle was confused. These strange words had invaded her brain in an incomprehensible way.
Nanook immediately glared at the masked person. Don't think I don't recognize you just because you're wearing a new mask. The smell of Elation is overflowing.
Even if you were turned to ashes, I would never mistake you.
What f*ing bad luck!
It seemed they had reached the VIP stage, and Stelle's vision suddenly went black.
Wait, I haven't seen enough yet! I can pay for a membership!
Outside, Welt appeared and dealt with the erupting Stellaron in Stelle's body.
He didn't bother to look cool. He looked directly at Caelus's face.
"You..."
Seeing Caelus's face from the front, Welt's expression changed constantly. White hair, blue eyes...
However, with Himeko as a precedent, Welt comforted himself. It's just an alternate version, a similar flower.
Caelus looked at Welt's face and thought of the person he had seen in that vision. His expression changed subtly, and some words slipped out unconsciously:
"Herrscher—"
"Friend or foe, choose."
At the same time, the greatsword of the Might of An-Utu in his hand was pointed at Welt.
Damn!
Welt: "..."
That familiar voice, that familiar line, that familiar demeanor, and he even knows I was once a Herrscher.
You're not even trying to hide it, are you?
It's not an alternate version. Kevin has won the resurrection match.
The f*ing Honkai has really caught up to me.
March 7th and the others looked at the change in Welt's expression. They had never seen him like this before. The Welt they knew was mature, calm, and collected...
Himeko was reminded of the day she had first met Welt. He had had the same expression, as if he had seen a ghost.
Could Caelus also look a little like an old acquaintance of Welt's?
"Himeko, everyone, for some reason, ten Doomsday Beasts are approaching the Herta Space Station, pom," Pom-Pom's anxious voice came through the Astral Express crew's communicator.
Hearing this, everyone's expression changed. Ten Doomsday Beasts... that was no small number. This could mean that a Lord Ravager had made a move; otherwise, a situation like this would never have occurred.
They didn't know what had happened in the Path of Presences. Although it wasn't a clash between the Aeons themselves, the aura of Destruction had still attracted the nearest Lord Ravager to the Herta Space Station. They just didn't know which one it would be.
"Herta, a Lord Ravager might be coming. Aren't you going to bring your real body over?" Ruan Mei contacted Great Herta.
"Tsk, what a pain," Herta's voice was a little serious.
Everyone knew how destructive a Lord Ravager was. What was giving her a headache now was that if an Emanator-level battle broke out at the space station, both Jarilo-VI and the space station would probably be destroyed.
[Star Forger]: "Apollo, come and have some fun. A strong one is coming. @Sun God"
Kenji knew a Lord Ravager would be coming. It had to be that guy, Aha, who had done something to Nanook. It probably wasn't Phantylia; she should be busy with the Xianzhou right now.
[Sun God]: "Alright."
Apollo only replied with one word. Even though he hadn't fully recovered, he was calm and collected.
Ruan Mei was a little curious about what kind of strength this Sun God possessed.
[Ding, Star Forger has started a live broadcast!]
The group members all looked at the live broadcast Kenji had started. The Herta Space Station was far more advanced than anything in their own worlds. Even the space stations in Tony's world were extremely primitive in comparison.
[Stank]: "What advanced technology. Are those big guys flying in space the Doomsday Beasts you mentioned that can destroy planets?"
The chat group's live broadcast allowed the members to experience the atmosphere to some extent. Erina had never seen such a scene before; after all, she was mostly familiar with cooking.
Tony did a quick calculation. Ordinary missiles would probably be useless. Even nuclear weapons probably couldn't kill a Doomsday Beast.
[Crash-Test Pilot]: "Are those horns on the Doomsday Beasts' heads?"
Daigo's hand was itching. He wanted to break them. And they had wings, which he could tear off.
[Star Forger]: "Daigo, you're going further and further down the path of the 'Horn-Breaking Demon.' Some of the Ultras from the Land of Light would probably feel a chill down their spines if they saw you."
Right, Father of Ultra, Ultraman Zoffy...
[Crash-Test Pilot]: "Huh?"
Daigo was confused. He shouldn't have any conflict with the Land of Light, right?
[Monkey D. Kizaru]: "Doomsday Beasts, so scary~"
Kizaru felt that small-time pirates were easier to bully, especially those who acted arrogantly just because they had a bounty of a few hundred million.
Ten Doomsday Beasts surrounded the Herta Space Station. Pom-Pom was about to ram the Astral Express into them.
Swoosh—
A light lit up. A figure radiating the light of the sun flashed through space. The ten Doomsday Beasts didn't even have time to react before they exploded one by one, like fireworks.
