Chapter 219 - Chapter 217: The Shattered Crystal and Kiana's Coma

"Is that... a Gatling gun?!" Li Xuan's eyes widened as he looked at the weapon placed on the most prominent shelf not far from them...

What appeared before them was the so-called 'Kaslana family' treasury... Huge shelves, like those in a library, were filled with all sorts of bizarre and varied weapons...

"No, it's not a Gatling gun..." Kiana suddenly spoke, refuting Li Xuan's words. She looked seriously at the small machine gun on the wooden shelf and said, "That should be... an M134 Minigun..."

"It can fire thousands of bullets per second, and it's a Honkai energy-driven machine gun... possessing the most ferocious attack power." Kiana touched the six golden barrels of the minigun and described its performance.

In fact, rather than a machine gun, Kiana thought this weapon was more like a cannon... Even a high-level Honkai Beast would definitely suffer serious injuries under the frantic fire of this weapon... The only drawbacks were its lack of durability and its astonishing ammunition consumption.

"This is Veda's Revenge... Parasitic Doll... Slothful Doll... Fenrir's Fangs." Kiana stretched out her hand and gently stroked the weapons on the wooden shelf... She could name any weapon she touched.

"...Um, Kiana, can I have one of those weapons?" Li Xuan asked, his eyes filled with greed as he looked at the various weapons on the wooden shelf. He was even surprised to find a golden emblem!

"No!" Kiana was like a miser, turning around to tightly guard the various weapons behind her, her face almost screaming 'Mine, mine... all mine!'

"..." Li Xuan subconsciously started biting his thumbnail... Having a rich second-generation kid around, he felt all sorts of envy, jealousy, and hatred...

Meanwhile, the Raccoon Girl, having already completed its task, looked at the room in front of it with some boredom. This room made it feel oppressed... and hungry... As a Familiar, it could feel the Honkai energy particles in the air, which were almost non-existent. Without an external energy source to absorb, the Raccoon Girl naturally started to feel hungry...

After all... the energy for a Familiar's activities is supported by Honkai energy or by eating food to provide bio-energy.

"Squeak squeak~" The Raccoon Girl suddenly felt a very subtle aura of Honkai energy surrounding it. To humans, Honkai energy was like a deadly poison, but to the Raccoon Girl, a moderate amount of Honkai energy was like food.

"Squeak squeak~" The Raccoon Girl followed the direction from which the Honkai energy was coming, its small nose twitching slightly...

"Bang!" The Raccoon Girl, walking with its eyes closed, walked straight into the wall of the room. The black wall left its nose covered in dust...

"Squeak squeak!" Somewhat embarrassed and angry, the Raccoon Girl picked up its small shovel and gave the wall, which was constructed of lead bricks, a fierce whack out of frustration.

The shovel, which could even cut through alloys, naturally sliced through the outer shell of the wall as if it were touching water, revealing the black bricks inside, as well as exposed rebar, cement, and obsidian fragments embedded within.

"?!" The Raccoon Girl looked with some surprise at the wall it had casually dug a piece out of. It could clearly feel the faint but seemingly enormous Honkai energy coming from the other side of the wall.

"Squeak squeak! Lady Kiana!~" The Raccoon Girl turned its head and shouted at Kiana, who was talking to Li Xuan.... But perhaps because its voice wasn't loud, or because Kiana and Li Xuan's voices were a bit loud... so Kiana didn't notice her little Sora's shout.

"..." Without getting a response, the Raccoon Girl simply swung its small shovel and started digging at the wall in front of it. Curiosity made it dig through the fifty-centimeter-thick wall with lightning speed, creating a large hole.

"Rumble!" Finally… the overwhelmed wall gave way and was directly broken through by the Raccoon Girl. A large hole appeared, revealing another room — one filled with boxes. On top of the unsealed ones lay countless azure crystals, shimmering faintly.

That was 'Schicksal's' Honkai energy crystal. Although it was essentially similar to the Honkai energy crystal that Li Xuan himself created, there was a difference.... 'Schicksal's' Honkai energy crystal was created by sealing Honkai energy within a crystal using instruments, whereas Li Xuan completely solidified the outer layer of Honkai energy particles into a stable solid state with the help of the Stigmata, compressing the Honkai energy into the form of a crystal to the greatest extent...

Of course... no matter what, they were all Honkai energy crystals... Anyway, Li Xuan had experimented with them. No matter what kind of crystal it was... the Gate of Vows would devour it without hesitation...

"The, the wall broke?!" With the final roar from the wall, Li Xuan finally noticed that the wall behind him had already shattered... revealing the adjacent room where the Honkai energy crystals were stored.

"Huh? What's wrong...?" Kiana turned around belatedly and looked at the wall behind her, which looked like it had been gnawed by a dog, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Squeak squeak!" Seemingly sensing the aura from the boxes that was like a delicacy to it, the Raccoon Girl quickly ran towards them...

"Squeak!" But halfway there, the Raccoon Girl suddenly slipped and fell to the ground... Even the small shovel it was holding tightly in its hand flew out of its grasp.

The small shovel, thrown into the air, spun around and happened to fall into the largest box filled with Honkai energy crystals... The sharp shovel, which could even cut through alloys, touched the extremely fragile outer shell of the Honkai energy crystals...

"Crack!~" The sound of the crystal's surface shattering, like a domino effect, broke one after another. The large amount of Honkai energy contained within the Honkai energy crystals continuously surged out...

The shattering of the Honkai energy crystals in just one large box caused the Honkai energy concentration in the room to continuously rise. In just a few breaths, the Honkai energy in the room was comparable to the center of a super-large [Honkai] reaction.

Li Xuan and Kiana were the first to be enveloped by the overflowing Honkai energy...

"Kiana, are you alright?" Li Xuan subconsciously covered his mouth and nose and said.

"I'm fine, I'm from the Kaslana family..." Kiana said proudly. The most famous trait of the Kaslana family was their complete immunity to Honkai energy corrosion.

"Is that so?..." Li Xuan said with a somewhat helpless, bitter smile. But the most important thing now was to leave this place first...

"Wait... Kiana! What's wrong with you?!... Kiana!" Suddenly, Kiana seemed to be in some pain and clutched her forehead. In a daze, Li Xuan seemed to see a flash of golden light in her right eye...

"My head hurts so much..." Kiana only had time to say this before her entire body went limp.

"Kiana!" Li Xuan hurriedly caught Kiana's falling body and quickly picked her up and ran out of the room.

...............................

In Kiana's dark consciousness, it seemed someone was whispering something in her ear, and endless flames seemed to flash before her eyes...

[No matter what the cost... people of the Kaslana family must protect the one they love most!... We made a promise, right?...]

[I have fulfilled my promise...]

[Now it's your turn, my daughter (Kiana)...]
