Honkai Impact: Saving the Pre-civilization by rubbing black technology

V2/Chapter 57: Deep and Dark Cave.

"I didn't expect you to come out from there."

 The moment she saw Ai Yue appear, the Ninth Herrscher realized that she had underestimated him.

 The reason why she went to such great lengths to hide her whereabouts was because she knew that the other party had a very powerful artificial intelligence in his hands, but at the moment, her actions were completely in vain.

 However, since the other party failed to stop her and did not choose to escape, the outcome would not change.

 The Ninth Herrscher has absolute confidence in her own power. Not to mention that Ai Yue is just an ordinary person, even if she faces Kevin, she will never lose in a one-on-one situation.

 "After all, my friend built it with great effort. If you destroyed it so quickly, it would be hard for me to explain myself."

 Facing the Herrscher, Ai Yue still looked unhurried, "Thank you for coming all the way here, why don't we have a good chat?"

 "Let's have a good chat?"

 The Ninth Herrscher looked at the drones around her and shook her head slightly, "That shouldn't be the attitude, right?"

 "Isn't it normal to take some precautions when facing unexpected guests?"

 Ai Yue waved his hand, and the drone swarm hid again. "Is this okay?"

 "You look confident?"

 The Ninth Herrscher frowned when she saw Ai Yue responding so readily. "I'm curious, why are you so calm when you know I'm coming for you?"

 The behavior of Ai Yue now was completely different from what the Ninth Herrscher had guessed, which made her a little wary, and she did not choose to act rashly.

 "Because I'm really not afraid,"

 Ai Yue shrugged. "Besides, the Herrscher is a very good experimental material. In order to observe it up close, I think it is acceptable to take some risks."

 "Arrogant!"

 The Ninth Herrscher's eyes suddenly widened, and she raised her hand, creating a tangible pressure that directly enveloped the position where Ai Yue was.

 Controlling gravity is her power, but what she is exerting now is only ten times the gravity. For ordinary people, suddenly bearing such gravity is enough to cause serious damage to their bodies.

 But in the eyes of the Ninth Herrscher, this was just a small punishment for Ai Yue's offense to her.

 However, the result was disappointing. Ai Yue's figure mysteriously disappeared from the sight of the Ninth Herrscher almost immediately. The way of disappearance seemed completely unlike what the human body could do. Instead, it was more like some kind of... illusion?

 The Ninth Herrscher frowned and waved her hand again. The area that was originally covered by ten times the gravity immediately produced gravity in the opposite direction. All the things hidden in it floated up and appeared before her eyes.

 There were no humans there at all, just a bunch of twisted drones.

 "Virtual projection? Is it so realistic..."

 After realizing that she had been tricked, the Ninth Herrscher could not help but snort coldly, "What do you mean by close observation? You only dare to use such a petty trick."

 "After all, we have to be cautious when interacting with an emotionally unstable creature like the Herrscher."

 Ai Yue's voice came from the left side of the Ninth Herrscher again, "Look, I almost get hit"

 "After all, you're just a cowardly human being."

 The Ninth Herrscher didn't even look at him. "Forget it. Once I destroy that building, I'll have plenty of ways to force you out."

 "Unfortunately, it's real this time."

 Ai Yue's figure moved forward, and finally walked out of the woods, standing in front of the other party with a swagger, "Look, the shadow is here."

 The Ninth Herrscher turned around abruptly and used gravity control again, and this time Ai Yue disappeared from the spot again, but it was completely different from before.

 A layer of golden light suddenly appeared on his body, and then he suddenly flashed from the left side of the Herrscher to the right side, avoiding the gravity suppression this time.

 "Look, it's urgent again."

 Ai Yue waved his right hand, as if to greet the Ninth Herrscher, but in fact he was showing her the Void Herrscher Core on the Limited Glove. "Can't we chat for a while? I'm very interested in the changes in your minds after becoming Herrschers."

 Compared to the Eighth Herrscher, the Ninth Herrscher's intelligence seemed to have increased a lot. Ai Yue didn't know whether it was because of her past as a scholar, or because the Cocoon of the Finality had made targeted changes to the current state of human civilization development. Therefore, he wanted to find some clues from the Ninth Herrscher to verify his guess.

 It's a pity that the Ninth Herrscher obviously didn't intend to give Ai Yue this opportunity: "You want to control the power of Honkai with a human body? Let's see how many times you can use it!"

 After saying this, she no longer held back, and the power of the Herrscher began to boil under her control, directly covering the entire island!

 This time it is no longer ten times the gravity, but a hundred times the gravity!

 In an instant, the entire island let out a mournful cry as if it could not bear the heavy weight. It was forced downwards by the sudden increase in gravity. The vegetation on the island also bent and broke under the action of gravity and was flattened to the ground in an instant.

 And those drones hidden in the vegetation were all turned into scrap metal.

 But Ai Yue left the range of gravity in time. He pushed his glasses and showed a thoughtful expression: "So that's how it is. There is a little delay from the release to the completion of your power?"

 At this point, he nodded in understanding: "That's right. After all, no matter how powerful an ability is, it still relies on the user's will to drive it, right?"

 'This guy is really too dangerous!'

 The Ninth Herrscher frowned, her face full of solemnity. Although she was just facing an ordinary human, she felt cold sweat on her back.

 Ai Yue is definitely not just a scholar, there is definitely something seriously wrong with this person!

 From the time the two had confronted each other until now, the Ninth Herrscher had only used her power three times, but based on these three attacks alone, Ai Yue had sensed something was wrong. This kind of observation ability was definitely not just about on-the-spot judgment!

 At this moment, she even had a feeling that she was seen through, and this was exactly what she had been most worried about.

 At this point, she couldn't drag it on any longer. If she continued like this, the Ninth Herrscher even suspected that Ai Yue would be able to find her flaws on the spot and kill her.

 'In that case, I will use my strongest move—'

 "You are indeed very powerful, but you are only human after all."

The Ninth Herrscher had a gloomy face and said something that seemed to admit her defeat,

"If that's the case, then you definitely won't be able to escape this move—"

She raised her hand, and in her palm, it seemed as if something horrible was being born.

"Pseudo Black Hole!"

However, at the same time as the Ninth Herrscher raised her hand, Ai Yue also stretched out his hand and pressed it on his belt.

He had a "been waiting for a long time" expression on his face.

"Transform."

"Command confirmed. Infinite Armor, fully armed."
