Collapse: The World I Live In

"How is this possible?" Yi said as he looked at the Herrscher who had transformed into a new form. "He merged with Honkai Beast? Is this power or something else? Kevin is in trouble."

Just as Yi was thinking, a knight-level Honkai beast came behind him. Because he was too focused on the battle between Kevin and the Herrscher, he did not notice the threat behind him. However, a mere knight-level Honkai beast was not a problem. Just when the spear of the Honkai beast was about to pierce Yi's head, Yi's head tilted to the side and avoided the fatal blow. Then Yi stood up and kicked the shield of the knight-level Honkai beast, kicking it away.

"These days, even Honkai beasts can launch sneak attacks." Yi stood up and dusted himself off, then raised his head to look in the direction the Honkai beast flew out. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked, but when he did, he was shocked to see a group of advancing Honkai beasts as fast as mosquitoes and assassins holding bows and sickles, including a few advanced assassins holding dual swords, led by a few knight-level Honkai beasts who surrounded Yi.

"Are you kidding me..." Yi was really scared. There were so many Honkai beasts and death warriors. Although they were just small fry, the number was frightening.

Bang!

With the sound of an explosion, Yi also began to break out.

"Oh, are there any other small fry?" The Herrscher looked at the place where the explosion occurred, then looked at Kevin and asked, "Companions?"

"Your opponent is me, the Herrscher." Kevin did not answer the Herrscher's question directly, but raised his sword and slashed at the Herrscher.

The Herrscher also responded to Kevin's attack, and the two began a second round of collision. Unlike the previous round, this time the Herrscher was no longer weaker than Kevin in strength, and even had a tendency to overwhelm Kevin.

When he came to Yi's side, he saw Yi bend down to avoid the attack of the assassins. Then another arrow shot towards Yi. Yi quickly supported himself with his hands and did a somersault to avoid the arrow. His left hand projected a black longbow in the air, and his right hand projected a sword, which shot towards the center of the assassins.

"Broken Phantasm!"

As the spell was recited, a violent explosion erupted from the group of death warriors, directly killing many of them. But before Yi had time to be happy, another group of Honkai beasts took their places.

Yi was unable to dodge in the air, and a mosquito hit Yi's abdomen directly, knocking him away.

"What a misfortune..." Yi covered his abdomen and slowly stood up. The mosquito was lucky and hit the place where Hua had hit it before. This time Yi's internal organs were also injured and he couldn't help spitting out blood.

Looking at the Honkai beasts around him, Yi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then roared, "Susanoo!" Blood flowed from Yi's eyes. This time the Susanoo was not the skeleton as before. This time there was flesh and armor, and a long sword appeared in Susanoo's hand.

"Kill!" As Yi's voice fell, Susanoo grasped the long sword with both hands and swept it across, directly destroying all the surrounding Honkai beasts and dead soldiers.

At this moment, Yi couldn't help but kneel on the ground, covering his tightly closed eyes with one hand and supporting himself with the other hand, but he still couldn't stop the blood from flowing out of his eyes.

Yi endured the severe pain and tried to open his eyes, but when he opened his eyes, everything in front of him was blurry. Yi knew that this was due to overusing his eyes. Yi also felt that if he used these eyes so intensely and frequently again, there would be only one result, and that was losing his sight.

Yi stood up, his eyes returned to their original black color, and when he was sure that there were no survivors around, he slowly walked towards Kevin. He wanted to see with his own eyes the true strength of the fusion warrior.

The Fire Moth troops that had arrived in Australia were also very confused as to why they had not encountered any Death Soldiers or Honkai Beasts. However, they did not go deeper into the area because they had received an order that this was a test of "new weapons" by the top leaders and they could not interfere...

"Hey, hey, hey! Make me happier!" The Herrscher forced Kevin back with one sword, and then swung another sword carrying fire. The bursting flames turned into a tiger that bit towards Kevin.

But Kevin's expression was still as indifferent as before, as if the Herrscher in front of him was no match for him at all. Kevin stopped and swung his sword at the attacking tiger. With just one sword, the tiger carrying a high temperature was cut in half, and then it disappeared into the air with a wave of heat.

Then the two of them started close combat again. If it was Himeko, it would be fine, because Kevin often practiced with Himeko at the headquarters, so both of them were familiar with each other's moves. But now it was the Herrscher, who could only attack based on her intuition, strength and her extraordinary reaction nerves. She had completely forgotten Himeko's skills, so the Herrscher could not gain any advantage in close combat.

The Herrscher slashed at Kevin with his mighty sword. Kevin seized the opportunity to dodge and then did a roundhouse kick at the Herrscher's abdomen, sending him flying. The force was so great that spider-web-like cracks appeared on the places where the Herrscher hit.

"Is this all you want, Herrscher?" Kevin mocked the Herrscher as if he was not satisfied yet. He wanted to see where his limits were, and only the Herrscher could push him to his limits!

Bang!

The scorching flames melted everything around the battlefield, but even with such a scorching temperature, Kevin was completely helpless.

"Damn it, why! Why doesn't it work, I don't believe it!" The Herrscher began to become hysterical, then leaped into the sky, a violent flame erupted from his body, and the Herrscher's figure began to swell.

Finally, it turned into a female giant with only the upper body made of flames, more than 40 meters tall, appearing in the fiery clouds in the sky, and the Herrscher was right in the middle of the giant's chest.

"Ahhhhh! Thousand-Armed Pagoda!" The giant roared, then swung his fist. A giant weapon formed by countless flames smashed towards Kevin with a tremendous force. Wherever his fist passed, there was black scorched earth.

Kevin had no intention of dodging, but took a deep breath, "Ice Burial Lotus!" The temperature around him became lower and lower, and frost began to appear around Kevin. Then countless branches formed by ice began to spread upwards, and an ice lotus appeared under Kevin's feet, wrapped up Kevin, and then rose into the sky and gradually approached the Herrscher.

The branches were constantly destroyed under the attack of weapons formed by flames, but at the same time, new strips of ice were formed to fill in the damaged areas. Kevin, who was in the center and was wrapped in a flower bud, stared at the Herrscher. These branches not only protected Kevin, but also sheltered Yi next to him.

"Human! You won't defeat me!" The Herrscher with orange eyes smiled and said to Kevin, "The attacks of the Thousand-Handed Buddha are endless!"

"Your desire to attack is too strong, and you have left a flaw in your moves unconsciously." The lotus where Kevin was was getting closer and closer to the Herrscher in the sky. Kevin's body also burst out with azure Honkai energy, and then he jumped hard and instantly came to the side of the Herrscher, "I got you!"

In the panicked eyes of the Herrscher, a punch hit the Herrscher's abdomen, and the giant formed of fire collapsed at this moment. The Herrscher gritted her teeth and did not want to admit defeat, but Kevin did not give her the chance. He kept launching fierce attacks on the Herrscher in the air, and then chopped the Herrscher back to the ground with a chop. Kevin, who was falling from the air, also launched the final blow to the Herrscher.

Ice condensed on the tip of the sword and stabbed towards the Herrscher who fell to the ground.

"Go to hell! Herrscher!" Kevin roared.

"No, don't..." Before the Herrscher could say his last words, Kevin stabbed him in the chest.

However, at this moment, Kevin showed an expression of surprise on his face, and Yi, who had rushed here, also showed an expression of surprise.

That's because the Herrscher, who was thought to have died with a resentful expression, now looked relieved and gave a bright smile to Kevin who had pierced him.

"Thank you... Kevin..." When the Herrscher's voice came out, Kevin and Yi were stunned. This voice was no longer the Herrscher's arrogant voice, but Himeko's gentle voice. Looking at her smile, it seemed that Himeko had returned to them. No, it was not as if she had really returned, but it was too late...

"Himeko..." Kevin gripped the sword tightly in his hand to hide the trembling in his hands.

"Hua... I'll leave it to... you guys..." As soon as she finished speaking, Himeko's eyes lost their luster and she completely lost her breath of life. This state was just like the state of her sister Xi before her death.

Why is this happening? Is this a last gasp of light? Yi kept asking himself this question.

At this moment, the seventh collapse came to an end, and it ended with an ice lotus blooming in the center of the collapse.
