A crimson cherry blossom petal lightly landed on the golden cross standing on the ground. If it weren't for the slowly approaching Honkai Zombies, it might have had an indescribable artistic charm.
The golden cross passed through the gaps in the dense branches of the cherry blossom trees, and rays of sunlight shone on it. The cross, reflecting the golden light, unfolded its 'fangs' under Theresa's astounded gaze...
"Go..." Li Xuan said softly, lightly touching the 'Judah's Oath' in front of him, which was a size smaller than the real 'Judah's Oath'. As if understanding Li Xuan's will... the golden spears standing on their mounts trembled slightly.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!~" Several Spears of Light shot out, their obsidian tips flashing with a black light. The straight shafts connected to the sharp spearheads were attached to golden chains...
"Roar!!" Under the threat of death, the Honkai Zombies roared again and charged over. Lacking much intelligence, they could only instinctively rush towards Li Xuan and the others, not realizing that this was, in fact, walking towards their deaths...
"Roar! Roar..." One by one, the Honkai Zombies roared, and then their roars were cut short as their bodies were instantly pierced by the incoming Spears of Light. A few slightly more evolved Honkai Zombies managed to narrowly dodge the spears, but miraculously, after they dodged, the black spearheads' shafts actually softened, changed direction, and once again hit the bodies of the now-unable-to-dodge Honkai Zombies.
The Honkai Zombies whose bodies were pierced by the Spears of Light had the red, bloody light in their eyes instantly dim. Because the Honkai energy they relied on for movement was dispersed by the spears, their bodies fell powerlessly to the ground...
Faced with the strongest restraining weapon, 'Judah's Oath', a group of Honkai Zombies was wiped out in less than a few minutes...
"..." I still revealed it... Li Xuan reached out with his right hand, and the 'Judah's Oath' that had killed all the Honkai Zombies vanished into thin air under his hand.
"..." Theresa was still staring at the man in front of her in shock, her eyes full of disbelief... As the current wielder of 'Judah's Oath', she naturally understood things about 'Judah's Oath'...
It was said to be the strongest restraining weapon, personally designed and created by her creator, who was also her grandfather and the Archbishop, 'Otto', in imitation of a certain Holy Relic... 'Judah's Oath' was very strong... but it was also unique in the world.
But now this weapon... which should have been impossible to replicate, had appeared again... a second one had appeared!
"Phew!~" Coming back to her senses, Theresa took a deep breath. Her expression became grave as she watched Li Xuan, who was a short distance away, and said in a low voice.
"Li Xuan... why do you also have... 'Judah's Oath'?" Theresa stood up, her right hand lightly resting on the golden cross beside her as she stared at Li Xuan's back and asked.
"..." Li Xuan, with his back to Theresa, had a pained expression. He knew this would happen one day... Ever since he first saw the weapon Theresa used... he knew it would be exposed sooner or later...
So, even knowing that Theresa intended to see his abilities, he still brought out 'Seele's Toy Box' in its 'Judah Form'... Anyway, who knows when he might accidentally expose his ability, so he might as well confess now while it was just the two of them...
'...I have to hold some things back,' Li Xuan thought gravely... His ability was ultimately his biggest secret... He couldn't let anyone truly know it...
"Me..." Li Xuan turned around with a slight smile to face the solemn-looking Theresa Apocalypse and said lightly, "Because I have an ability..."
"I have an ability similar to the 'Kaslana family'... using Honkai energy crystals to create weapons," Li Xuan said bluntly.
"..." Theresa's eyes widened, filled with astonishment... She was stunned for a moment and quickly asked, "So... you can even create a weapon like 'Judah's Oath'?!"
Theresa felt as if the world had gone mad... If Li Xuan could really use Honkai energy to create weapons, and could even create weapons as powerful as Judah... and equip Schicksal's Valkyries with them... then 'Schicksal' might really be able to completely eliminate the Honkai... or at least play a huge role in the upcoming final Honkai War, [Final Judgment]!
"So..." Li Xuan shrugged and smiled apologetically...
"..." Theresa fell silent for a moment, then sighed and said with some fatigue, "I'm sorry, I was overthinking things..." Indeed, how could an ability to create an unlimited number of weapons that anyone could use possibly exist...
As Kiana's aunt and the current head of the 'Apocalypse family', Theresa also knew that although the 'Kaslana family' could create weapons, it was by expending their own Honkai energy to create some weapons for their own use, and the failure rate was extremely high. At the very least, her dear niece 'Kiana Kaslana' was still using the 'Mjolnir' she created several years ago...
Therefore, for the 'Kaslana family', what they relied on for survival was... their innate powerful immunity to Honkai energy... they wouldn't be affected by Honkai energy even in high-concentration environments...
"Don't worry... I'll keep it a secret, I won't tell anyone else..." Theresa turned around and forced a smile, looking a little dejected. If only Li Xuan could create weapons that anyone could use... then the number of Valkyrie casualties each year wouldn't be so high...
"Let's go... we should go in." Theresa reached out and picked up the golden cross 'Judah's Oath' from the ground, effortlessly slinging the golden chains wrapped around it onto her back and slowly walking towards the other side of the path.
"Oh, oh~ Coming, coming..." Li Xuan crouched down and extracted the Honkai energy from the Honkai Zombies' bodies, turning it into crystals, before quickly catching up to Theresa's retreating figure.
"The cherry blossoms are really beautiful..." Li Xuan looked at the crimson cherry blossom petals fluttering above his head and sighed. If he hadn't transmigrated... he might have gone to that university in Wuhan that blooms with cherry blossoms every year, right?
"They are..." Theresa reached out and held a petal, nodding.
"!!!" Just as Theresa's foot stepped past the torii gate at the end of the path, the red mark on her back lit up again.
