Chapter 14 Danger Approaches Silently
Chapter 14 Danger Approaches Silently
Mei was very concerned about the date they had agreed to have dinner together.
For the past two days, she has been thinking about what dishes to cook, whether the house will be a bit messy, and whether the dishes she makes will suit his taste.
Eating at home shows that you value and appreciate the food, but Mei is still a little reluctant to eat at a restaurant.
While she was busy, Mei watched from the side with a warm smile on her face.
It is this simple shyness that is most beautiful.
I was so naive back then.
As Mei was pondering what dish to cook, she suddenly heard a whisper in her ear, and her delicate body trembled, freezing her in place.
"You know what he likes to eat, don't you?"
"How pathetic. He's been caring for you silently all this time, and you don't even know what he likes. What kind of 'love' is that?"
"Why not give yourself to me? I understand him better than you do..."
Raiden Mei's pupils contracted sharply, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead.
It was her voice again.
The personality within yourself.
Her delicate body stiffened slightly.
But she still gritted her teeth and forcibly controlled her body, preventing the personality inside her from taking over.
This time, she won't take her own life because of what the other person said.
Chen Feng had already saved her; she couldn't let him down.
【Mei】Watching herself struggle, she silently observed the other person from the side.
She has no say in this matter, nor is it necessary for her to.
The Herrscher of Thunder will not harm herself, much less Chen Feng.
She knew about this a long time ago.
Moreover, it is estimated that Changkong City will collapse in the next few days.
When the time comes, let the Herrscher of Thunder come out and see Chen Feng with her own eyes, and she will understand completely.
So, you must hold on, my former self.
……
"Can't you change your temper? You're too reckless. Was I always this stupid when I was a kid? So why has Chen Feng kept helping me?"
Looking at Kiana, who was filled with resentment, she shook her head and sighed, seemingly very dissatisfied with her past self.
Kiana was furious when she saw the other person's actions and expression.
"Hey, don't think you can look down on me like this just because you're my future self!"
"I'm so lovable, everyone adores me! How could I be as unbearable as you make me out to be?"
After saying that, Kiana crossed her arms and glared angrily at her future self.
Kiana waved her hand wearily.
Although she had decided to tell the other person what would happen in the future, now was not the time.
Let's talk about it after we get into St. Freya Academy.
Only when she has more ties to others will she feel a greater sense of crisis.
Let this past self cause trouble for a while longer.
……
That evening, Bronya received a call from Cocolia.
Bronya hung up the phone, the shock still lingering in her eyes.
Cocolia did indeed issue the mission to retrieve the Conqueror Gem's original body.
In addition to this mission, there is also the mission to protect Chen Feng.
The one who conquered the gem was none other than Raiden Mei, whom her future self had told her.
If it were to be taken back, the entire Changkong City would collapse.
And the one who made all these decisions was none other than her own mother, Cocolia.
Changkong City is really about to collapse.
Bronya's mind was now filled with only this one sentence.
After sitting on the bed for a few minutes, she quietly pushed open the door, then gently walked to Chen Feng's door and stood there for a very long time.
If a Honkai event were to actually occur, in that kind of environment, would you risk your life to come back to me?
Now, Bronya can only trust Cocolia's mother and you.
But would you really do that?
Bronya didn't know.
A few minutes later, Bronya returned to her room.
She'll know the answer tomorrow.
……
The next day.
early morning.
The morning seemed no different from any other day.
Little did they know that danger was lurking beneath the surface.
The sky over Changkong City doesn't look right.
The concentration of Honkai energy in the air is slowly increasing.
Initially, the instrument did not alarm because the values were still within the safe threshold.
But the curve suddenly rises.
Throughout the city, all electronic devices emitted a piercing shriek at the same instant before shutting down instantly.
The lights went out, the signal was cut off, and even the clock stopped.
After a brief silence, screams erupted.
On the street, some people collapsed without warning, only to stand up again a few seconds later.
The person who stood up had vacant eyes, and strange purple patterns appeared on the surface of their skin; the transformation into a zombie had begun.
Honkai Beasts crawled out of the cracked ground, their roars mingling with human cries, echoing simultaneously in every corner of the city.
The third collapse has occurred.
Qianyu Academy.
The classroom was in complete chaos.
Screams erupted as panicked students shoved and jostled each other as they ran through the corridor.
Mei didn't move.
From the moment the first scream rang out, she froze in her seat, as if nailed to the spot.
She lowered her head, her hands gripping the edge of the table tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force.
Her body was trembling, and something inside her was surging out from deep within her, impacting her consciousness in waves.
"Can you feel it?"
The voice rang in her mind, very clear, and spoke slowly to Mei with a smile.
"Honkai energy... such concentrated Honkai energy..."
Mei gritted her teeth, trying desperately to suppress that voice.
But she can't.
She felt her body being slowly devoured by something, purple lightning flickering at her fingertips, and her hair floating uncontrollably.
She has become a Herald.
Above Chiba Academy, thick clouds began to swirl, forming a giant vortex.
Purple lightning struck down from the vortex, landing precisely on the roof of the teaching building, directly above this classroom.
The ceiling is cracked.
As the rocks rained down, people scattered and fled, but each one who tried to escape was instantly turned into a lifeless corpse by the intense Honkai energy.
Mei remained motionless, her head bowed, her eyelashes casting a deep shadow on her face.
The surroundings were deathly silent, but a voice was approaching from afar.
He is running towards him.
She heard him calling her name.
But she could no longer lift her head.
"Stop struggling."
The voice softened.
"Haven't you always wanted to see him? Let me do it, let me help you..."
Mei's consciousness began to fade.
She could feel herself being pushed backward, squeezed into a small corner, and something stood up from that corner, taking over her hands, her legs, and her eyes.
Before the last vestige of Raiden Mei's consciousness disappeared, she heard that voice chuckle softly.
"Finally out."
"I'll finally get to see him..."
