Ficool

Chapter 161 - Chapter 161: The Oriole Behind

Time passed minute by minute.

The battle of the Yandere Valkyries had nothing to do with Lucas and Sakura.

The Honkai Energy concentration outside was soaring.

But it didn't affect him now, as his internal concentration was quite a bit higher than outside.

According to the theory that energy spontaneously flows from high energy levels to low energy levels.

Currently, Lucas himself was a Honkai Energy emitter; his body was continuously emitting Honkai Energy outwards.

"Why not commit suicide now…"

Lucas knew.

Whether he fell into the hands of the Tsundere Redhead Onee-san or Snake Snake.

He wouldn't have a good outcome.

Seeing no hope, Lucas naturally started to entertain dark thoughts.

The three Yandere Valkyries had no time to manage him, and Sakura behind him would definitely not intervene.

The success rate of self-harm was very high.

However…

Due to his body's condition.

Even if he were to self-harm, Lucas needed to wait a bit longer to regain some strength, otherwise, if one knife didn't kill him.

That would be a huge joke.

...

A few more minutes passed, and even with Sakura still on his back, Lucas had recovered a lot of strength while remaining on all fours.

He even felt like he could run with Sakura on his back.

"Almost… See you in the next reincarnation, Mei."

Even if Lucas was unwilling.

Now there was only death.

Himeko Murata, Mobius, and Raiden Mei were not targets Lucas needed to deeply explore; he didn't need to stubbornly persist.

Moreover, according to the current situation.

The Cook might be eliminated first.

Lucas didn't want to see Raiden Mei die in front of him again.

It was just a pity that all the preparations made to conquer Theresa had gone to waste.

Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a fruit knife. The man, mustering his courage, unhesitatingly used the blade to slice at the large artery in his neck.

To commit suicide scientifically and rationally.

One still had to cut the large artery in the neck.

Stabbing the heart was indeed faster and less painful.

However…

In Lucas's current state, it was difficult for him to stab his heart; only the large artery in his neck was convenient.

He originally thought it would just hurt for a moment.

Close his eyes, open them, and it would be over.

Unexpectedly—Lucas's blade did not land on his neck.

He slightly shifted his gaze.

Lucas saw a familiar face.

The ancient-looking Vermilion Bird Immortal reached out and gripped the blade.

Although her small hands looked soft and weak, the fruit knife could not penetrate them at all.

Like an iron clamp, it held the blade firmly.

As expected of a warrior with strong, powerful hands.

Hua half-crouched… The beautiful woman with gray hair stared at Lucas with her beautiful blue eyes and said coldly, "Useless thing, your master hasn't said you can die yet."

"Master…"

Lucas's eyes were a little moist.

The Immortal Red Phoenix had no intention of wasting words.

She pushed away the Ember known as Setsuna from her disciple's back.

Hua hoisted the man in the pink dress onto her shoulder, not even glancing at Sakura, and immediately fled.

The Fox-eared Woman, lying on her side on the ground, could only watch Lucas's retreating figure with her misty purple eyes.

And just as the Immortal Red Phoenix made her move.

Raiden Mei, who was in the midst of a furious assault, noticed something.

Her cold, purplish-red eyes instantly locked onto Hua, and Himeko Murata and Mobius also stopped their attacks in unison.

All three realized that Hua had carried Lucas away.

This situation was like — the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

Himeko Murata's eye twitched slightly.

"I have a suggestion, ladies... how about we take care of Hua first, and then fight... how does that sound?"

"No problem? I don't mind at all."

Mobius spread her hands.

Raiden Mei nodded in agreement, "Alright, then we'll deal with Hua first, hmph! How dare she do such a thing when I wasn't prepared, it's truly unforgivable..."

The Cook's voice was filled with suppressed anger.

With that, Raiden Mei turned and rushed towards the Immortal Red Phoenix.

Looking at the Cook with her back to them.

Himeko Murata and Mobius exchanged glances.

Without a word, both simultaneously launched an attack on Raiden Mei.

The Honkai Energy reaction from behind was intense.

Realizing something, Raiden Mei suddenly turned her head, and what met her eyes was...

Mobius raised the Eden Star with both hands and fiercely pulled the trigger; a black-red orb was fired like a bullet from a barrel, constantly expanding like a balloon as it moved forward.

The surrounding space was twisted along with it.

The world in Raiden Mei's eyes began to spin incessantly.

This was the Eden Star's Zero-Order Output — Psuedo-Black Hole!

Himeko Murata, on the other hand, directly threw her great red sword.

Using a melee weapon as a long-range one.

Facing the sudden attack... Raiden Mei was completely unprepared; she wanted to dodge, but was caught by the powerful gravitational pull of the Psuedo-Black Hole, making it impossible to escape.

Lightning flashed.

The Cook could only draw her sword to forcefully block Himeko Murata's strike.

"Clang!"

Flames and lightning collided in the air, creating a violent explosion.

This blast pushed the Cook even closer to the Psuedo-Black Hole.

The black-red sphere had stopped moving; it was now larger than a person, suspended silently behind Raiden Mei.

Flowers and trees.

Many surrounding objects were sucked into it.

Raiden Mei exerted all her strength to resist the powerful gravitational pull; she did not want to be swallowed by the Psuedo-Black Hole.

Compared to the Eden Star's First-Order Output.

Gravity waves.

The Zero-Order Output — Psuedo-Black Hole, was the strongest move.

Although Lucas couldn't use it.

Mobius could, and with the small black pistol in her hand... she hadn't used her true power until now, relying entirely on the Eden Star for output.

The moment Raiden Mei was attacked, she wanted to ask why.

However...

The Cook had no time to speak; all her energy was focused on resisting the Psuedo-Black Hole.

A Herrscher's body was indeed strong.

But if swallowed by a Psuedo-Black Hole, even the strongest body would be crushed into atoms.

Watching Raiden Mei struggle incessantly.

Himeko Murata smiled.

"Mei... Himeko teacher should have taught you not to expose your back to enemies, right?"

Mobius had no interest in wasting any more time.

Seeing Raiden Mei controlled by the Psuedo-Black Hole, she, like the Cook just now, rushed directly towards the Immortal Red Phoenix.

Himeko Murata's golden pupils flashed.

She chose to follow closely behind.

...

Hua had already brought Lucas into the Valkyrie Dormitory at this point, and she was climbing the stairs.

Regarding which building, floor, and room her disciple lived in...

The Immortal Red Phoenix was aware.

However, she did not choose to go to Lucas's building.

Instead, she went to other Valkyrie Dormitories.

This was also to avoid being intercepted by other Valkyries.

If she had chosen a shortcut to quickly send Lucas back to his room.

These two Yandere Valkyries might not have ambushed Raiden Mei.

Only when they believed they had ample time.

Would they team up to eliminate the Cook, an unstable factor.

Hua had a very clear analysis of the battle situation; she didn't even need to make a move, and the enemy was already down one person.

This was all part of the Immortal Red Phoenix's plan.
