Chapter 380 Kiana: My Family Members Were Spread Among the Captain
When Hoshimi Miyabi opened her eyes, everyone who had bought her time was injured to varying degrees. Among them, Mei's massive wound that pierced her abdomen was still oozing blood. If Kiana's spear hadn't been still embedded in it, Mei would probably have already died a heroic death.
A moment later, Mei was enveloped in a faint white light and then teleported to the Hyperion for emergency treatment. With this, one more person remained to fight on the battlefield, further increasing the pressure.
With time running out, Hoshimi Miyabi had no time to familiarize herself with this extra power. She put the demon sword back into its sheath, and clear fighting spirit emanated from her body.
Blue foxfire swirled around Hoshimi Miyabi, and then her aura began to rise rapidly. Hoshimi Miyabi had unlocked the demon sword once more, and this time she released the power she had obtained from the demon sword's will.
But this power is not something that can be easily mastered.
A few streaks of red foxfire flickered intermittently within the blue foxfire emanating from Hoshimi Miyabi's body, and then the alluring red began to erode the cold blue. Hoshimi Miyabi's brows furrowed, and a violent power surged through her body, eroding her consciousness.
Everything seemed to have returned to that time, the day the old capital fell, when Hoshimi Miyabi's mother personally handed the demon sword to the still young Hoshimi Miyabi in order to protect her.
Using the immense power she gained from the demon sword, young Hoshimi Miyabi successfully escaped. However, the price was that she was controlled by that power, and in her berserk state, she slaughtered every living creature that came into view.
This included not only members of the Hoshimi family and their servants, but also Hoshimi Miyako's mother.
At this moment, just like the day the old capital fell, she, lacking power, drew power from the demon sword to break the deadlock, but the price was being corrupted by the power and going berserk.
But one such experience is enough. Images flashed through Hoshimi Miyabi's mind, the figures of familiar people, and finally, everything settled on Kiana.
Kiana, with her innocence and energy, barged into Hoshimi Miyabi's life at some point, and fought her to a standstill with her strength, which was similar to her own.
Since then, Hoshimi Miyabi has become interested in Kiana, as well as her older sister Durandal.
For some reason, every time she invited Kiana to spar with her, Kiana's fiancé, who called himself the captain, would always come out to stop her. And judging from his appearance, he always seemed to regard her as some kind of monster, as if he was afraid that she would take Kiana away from him.
Even though he had always extended a formal invitation to Kiana, the people in the office always misunderstood her until he revealed his true purpose, at which point they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, all of these invitations were rejected, so Hoshimi Miyabi began her persistent invitation journey. Over time, everyone became accustomed to her methods and no longer showed the same shocked expressions as at the beginning.
To this day, Hoshimi Miyabi still doesn't understand why Kiana, when she first came to the Anti-Air Section 6, confidently proclaimed that she would become the strongest Void Hunter.
Logically speaking, Hoshimi Miyabi is the youngest Void Hunter in history, and with her help in training Kiana, she should quickly become the next Void Hunter. However, Kiana always declines Hoshimi Miyabi's training invitations, showing no sign of ambition whatsoever.
However, as they spent more time together, Hoshimi Miyabi discovered that Kiana was actually a good girl. Although she was lazy and liked to show off her affection for the captain, her talent was high enough that she could always quickly keep up with Hoshimi Miyabi.
Unfortunately, Hoshimi Miyabi was never one to be complacent. With Kiana stimulating her from behind, Hoshimi Miyabi always gained a lot of motivation to train even more.
Therefore, she will definitely save Kiana this time!
I'm risking my next strike!
With a loud bang, rocks flew everywhere where Hoshimi Miyabi had been standing, and Hoshimi Miyabi transformed into a red and blue streak of light and rushed towards Kiana's direction.
That was a strike powerful enough to sever the world; the entire world seemed to turn into a black and white image, and sound had long since lost its meaning.
A deafening roar drowned out all other sounds as a surge of violent energy erupted from the demon sword. The barrier Kiana had created in front of her became meaningless; the demon sword sliced through it effortlessly, like a hot blade cutting through butter, and continued its relentless attack on Kiana.
however--
"Ding!"
Kiana's two fingers gripped the demon sword tightly, and no matter how hard Hoshimi Miyabi tried, she couldn't move it an inch.
The powerful energy erupted in front of Kiana as gusts of wind, the fierce winds and roars cutting through the ground around her.
But Kiana remained unmoved in the raging wind; the wind that could cut through the ground seemed like just a slightly stronger gust to her.
The wind merely caused Kiana's hair to fly wildly and her clothes to flutter. She herself was completely unharmed, with only a slight stain on the hem of her clothing.
"Varied…?!"
Everyone who witnessed this scene gasped in surprise. No one had expected that Hoshimi Miyabi's earth-shattering strike would have had absolutely no effect.
Without time to think, Hoshimi Miyabi released her grip on the hilt of the sword and retreated sharply. The next second, the spot where she had been standing was filled with light spears.
But you can't hide forever. Kiana first turned the demon sword in her hand around and threw it at Hoshimi Miyabi. At the same time, the light spear stuck in the ground was transformed into a pure white ribbon and attacked Hoshimi Miyabi fiercely.
Hoshimi Miyabi struggled to regain her balance in mid-air, reached out and retrieved the demon sword that had just brushed past her, then held it horizontally in front of her to barely protect her vital parts.
Then, the ribbons made a teeth-grinding scraping sound as they came into contact with the demon sword, and sparks flew everywhere. Some ribbons that missed Hoshimi Miyabi's body grazed her arms, thighs, and other parts of her body, leaving bloody marks on those areas instantly.
When Hoshimi Miya landed, she had many scratches on her body. At this moment, Tetsuya led everyone to Hoshimi Miya's side at a jog. Ai-chan had already analyzed the situation.
"Listen up, everyone, the analysis results are in. We've found the reason why Hoshimi Miyabi's attack was ineffective: it was resisted by the ether energy shield that automatically deployed around Kiana's body."
"An ether energy shield?"
"Yes, if we can find a way to break through that shield, we'll have a chance to deal effective damage to Kiana!"
"But how do we do it?"
"According to calculations, as long as we can unleash an attack with three times the energy of Miss Ya's previous strike, we have a chance to break through the shield!"
"three times?!"
"I know it's difficult, but that's the most conservative figure Ai-chan has calculated."
“Three times? I can do that,” Hoshimi Miyabi said. “But that would leave me completely exhausted and unable to fight. In that case, I’ll have to rely on you guys.”
"If we include the overloaded Moon Throne, could it replace Hoshimi Miyabi's attack?" the captain's voice came through the channel.
"The Overloaded Moon Throne?"
“That’s right. The Moon Throne only used 80% of its power previously, while overload can use up to 300% of its power. Could we use this energy to replace Miss Ya’s full-power attack?”
Zhe plugged the data into the calculation and concluded, "Theoretically, it is indeed possible, but wouldn't that cause irreversible damage to the Hyperion?"
"It doesn't matter. It's just a matter of taking her back and rebuilding her. The price we pay to save Kiana is nothing!"
“The captain is right,” Durandal said. “The Hyperion can be rebuilt if it’s damaged, but Kiana cannot! As the chieftain of the Kaslana Clan, I command you, Captain, to fully overload the Moon Throne and completely pierce that shield!”
Upon receiving the order, the captain naturally began to operate with great speed. However, overloading takes time, and during this period, everyone had to withstand the pressure and find a way to keep Kiana from moving around and ensure that the Moon Throne could hit its target in one shot. If it missed, it would be all over. After all, overloading the Moon Throne's power to 300% not only consumes a huge amount of energy, but the energy it releases is also enough to burn the Moon Throne's cannon muzzle.
Therefore, there is only one chance; once you fail, there is no second chance. As for the consequences of failure, it will probably be a repeat of the fall of the old capital.
On the day the old capital fell, people lost a lot. How many of you here lost the people and things that were most important to you on that day? Therefore, you must succeed even if it costs you your life!
This time, no one held back. Unquenchable flames erupted from Fu Hua's body, and emerging from the flames was Fu Hua with white hair and red highlights, red eyes, and wearing a cheongsam.
The arm armor on his hands was replaced with a pair of black arm armor, and the back of his hands was covered with a piece of gold soft armor covering black gloves, with a blue gemstone inlaid in the center. The arms were inlaid with red patterns, and a pair of red wings emerged from the ends.
The white arm armor on the side connects to the lower half of the arm armor, which is also white, echoing Fu Hua's sleeves.
Instead of the traditional long skirt of the cheongsam, the skirt, resembling the fiery red wings of a vermilion bird, extends from the hips, with close-fitting black hot pants below for maximum comfort and movement.
The black boots featured gold soles and high heels, while the right foot was encased in a black, openwork stocking with a red rope extending from the end to the waist.
“This appearance…” Fu Huazhe murmured, looking at Fu Huazhe who was locked in battle with Kiana.
"What's wrong with your appearance?" Hoshimi Masayuki asked.
"No, it's nothing." Zhe shook his head as if denying something. "Miss Ya, please focus on the battle first."
After all, Zhe couldn't possibly say that Fu Hua's appearance reminded him of the legend of the Crimson Iris Immortal circulating in Weifei, could he?
Even if it were just a legend, how could there be people who have lived for hundreds or even thousands of years?
On the other side, Durandal also shed his golden armor and mounted a mount that appeared out of nowhere. He also joined the battle dressed in a pure white knight outfit, although in Zhe's eyes, this outfit was more about beauty than practicality.
However, considering Otto's advanced scientific research capabilities, it's possible that the suit Durandal is wearing is a custom-designed and modified armor personally by Otto. If that's the case, then the practicality of this outfit needs to be reconsidered.
After quickly treating his wounds, Hoshimi Masaya got up and joined the battle.
Just then, Mistriline slowly descended from the sky, and the last remaining figure that was almost identical to her vanished.
The summoned creatures that had been held back by Misterin have now returned to the battlefield, indicating that Misterin has reached her limit after the intense battle.
Even though she wanted to help, her exhausted body could no longer support her in summoning even a single Stigmata.
Having no other choice, Zhe had to operate Ies to take Misterlin to a safe place, after which Misterlin was also teleported to the Hyperion.
The pressure on everyone on the field immediately increased. Seeing this, Bronya could no longer hide and quickly summoned Heavy Bunny to take charge of blocking the attacks from the summoned creature.
Unfortunately, the power of truth, capable of constructing objects out of thin air, is too futuristic for this world, and it cannot be fully utilized when outsiders are present.
Bronya had already deconstructed the original form of the Heavy Bunny, which was usually stored in the quantum space. When encountering situations that she couldn't handle well, she would summon it and use the power of truth on a small scale through the Heavy Bunny.
With Bronya sharing the firepower, the three main fighters, while not facing much less pressure, at least no longer had to worry about harassment from summoned creatures.
Gradually, everyone began to feel overwhelmed. Kiana, thanks to her automatically deploying ethereal energy shield, was able to attack at will, while the others began to develop various wounds.
Panting heavily, the group dodged Kiana's attack once again. Ever since they entered the cave and encountered Kiana, they had been engaged in intense battles, and their stamina was gradually approaching its limit. However, the overload phase of the Moon Throne was not yet over, and the group was no longer sure if they could hold on until then.
Zhe gritted his teeth and began frantically analyzing the data, hoping to find a way to help everyone.
It looks like you need help!
Nicole's voice rang out from beside him, and Zhe looked at Nicole in surprise.
Behind Nicole stood the group that had been teleported up earlier for treatment. Due to the Belgian AI, replacing the parts would take some time, and Mei's injuries were more serious. The others had already been treated and were thrown back into the battlefield.
With the addition of others, the pressure on everyone instantly decreased, and gradually the situation was no longer one-sided, with Kiana dominating the group.
Just then, the captain's voice rang out again in the channel.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, everyone!"
The main gun muzzle of the Hyperion above began to glow with intense light, and a huge amount of energy was concentrated within it. At this moment, inside the Hyperion's bridge, the crosshair of the main gun on the display screen was being adjusted to aim at Kiana.
The moment the target was aimed, the captain pressed the launch button without hesitation, and the energy unleashed by the Moon Throne instantly enveloped Kiana's entire body.
Like a spear guiding everyone to victory, Kiana's figure disappeared into the light.
