V2/Chapter 83: Why does the effect of your field sound so familiar?
Surprisingly, these puppets weren't that difficult to deal with.
It can even be said that they are too weak. Not to mention Kosma and others, even Vill-V, who is totally unskilled in combat, can kill everyone among the puppets with her mechanical arms. They can be said to be real losers.
Even Vill-V is like this, let alone the others. The melee players are like dragons swimming in the sea, and the ranged players are harvesting a lot. It can be said that everyone is as brave as Kevin.
"What's going on? Aren't these guys too weak?"
Kosma was the first to voice his doubts. "Since this is the enemy's territory, these people should be stronger than when they were outside, right? But it seems that they are much weaker than outside."
"As it stands now, the gap between these people and the Herrschers is greater than the gap between ordinary people and Honkai beasts."
Vill-V used the instrument in her hand to analyze the other party's energy readings, "But the energy reaction on the other party... is very strange, it is not Honkai energy."
"It feels very strange."
Sakura frowned, "It felt like the object wasn't real when I cut it down."
"Is it possible that these puppets are just regular monsters?"
Dystopia said, "After all, you can see that their number is definitely more than three thousand, so it is very likely that they were sent by the Herrscher of Domination to consume our physical strength, right?"
In fact, in the ten minutes that the Fusion Warriors team had just fought, they destroyed at least more than five thousand puppets, but now the enemies are still pouring out continuously with no signs of attenuation. Therefore, it can be judged that the size of the enemy should be at least over ten thousand.
"It's not impossible."
Ato nodded, "Then let's switch tactics. I'll leave the handling of the puppets to you, Daisy."
Normally, the fusion warrior team needs to cross the vast sea of Honkai Beasts and then go to fight the Herrscher. In order to conserve physical strength as much as possible, long-range shooters such as Dystopia and Elysia are usually responsible for clearing the enemies in the process of crossing the Honkai Beasts. Kevin and others only need to maintain the lowest intensity of defense.
"I understand. Then I won't be polite, right?"
Elysia nodded after hearing this, "But, are we going to stay where we are?"
"No, we have to take the initiative,"
Kevin said, "It doesn't seem like a good idea to stay where you are, Aponia. You decide the direction to go."
Because they were suddenly pulled into an unfamiliar environment, Kevin and the others decided to wait and see before getting familiar with the surroundings. But now, judging from subsequent developments, if they cannot find the true bodies of the Herrschers of Domination, they will only be dragged to death here, so they must seek change now.
"Just go in the direction the puppets are attacking from."
Aponia then said slowly, "In addition, according to my perception, these puppets are actually the Herrscher of Domination itself."
"Well, this can be confirmed based on the analysis of mental wave frequencies."
Mobius also spoke at this time, "These puppets have consciousness, but their bodies are not made of stable matter, but energy."
"Is it the Herrscher of Domination?"
Kevin frowned, "What's the matter with this number?"
"You should have also discovered that after the puppet is destroyed, it does not leave any debris at the site, but directly decomposes and disappears."
Aponia explained, "Their spirits and remaining energy will return to the source under the special ability of this space and reappear in their complete form, so there will be an endless supply of puppets."
"It turns out it's not the numbers that matter, it's the rotation."
Kosma breathed a sigh of relief. "In this case, what if we don't kill them but use special means to trap them?"
When Kevin heard this, he immediately released his ability. Endless cold wind spread out from the sword he swung and soon froze all the puppets around him in solid ice.
"Maybe this will work... No, that's not right."
Aponia was about to nod, but suddenly froze for a moment, then murmured, "I see, I didn't even notice this feeling of disharmony just now..."
"Aponia, what's wrong with you?"
Elysia asked with concern, but then she realized something was wrong, "Wait Kevin, is the ice you released something that can be melted so easily?"
The next second, not only Elysia, but everyone saw that the layer of ice that froze the many puppets was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.
And it wasn't a melting phenomenon caused by high temperature, but rather it was more like... the ice was absorbed by the doll inside.
"All the energy released here will be captured and absorbed by the domain of domination, and then transformed into the power of the puppets."
Aponia's speech speed has become much faster. "In other words, the longer we fight in this area, the stronger the enemy will become, and we will become weaker and weaker. We can't stay here for long."
Before others could react, a sudden voice reached everyone's ears.
"Hehe, you are indeed a human whose mental power is comparable to that of a Herrscher. I thought this disguise could fool you."
A strange voice said so. When you first heard it, you would subconsciously think it was a woman speaking, but when you listened carefully, it felt like a man. Even the age was unclear and could not be distinguished at all.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that this guy's tone is so weird that it makes people want to beat him up.
"The Herrscher of Domination?"
Kevin asked in a deep voice, "It seems that after returning to your own territory, you finally mustered up the courage to face us."
"Don't think so highly of yourself, human!"
This sentence seemed to annoy the Herrscher of Domination. Its voice suddenly rose an octave and became sharper, but then it calmed down again. "Forget it. There is no need to pay attention to the words of a group of dying people. Come on, step forward and receive your death!"
As it spoke, all the puppets suddenly stopped their movements. They bowed crookedly to Kevin and the others, then fell to the ground and turned into points of light and disappeared.
"I have to say, this scene is a bit creepy."
Vill-V touched her arm, "Aponia, can you sense where those souls are going?"
"It is not yet certain that this aggregate of mental power is a soul,"
Mobius unexpectedly corrected from the side, "But the place where they gather should be where we are looking for."
"Well, follow me, everyone."
Aponia floated in front, "The terrain of this place is a bit complicated, don't go the wrong way."
