Chapter 78 Kevin
Chapter 78 Kevin
Under the hazy sky of Sky City, the engine sound of the Hyperion grew louder as it approached.
"Over there! There's a huge energy reaction coming from the direction of Shencheng Pharmaceuticals!"
The reaction detected a high concentration of Honkai energy and a high-intensity explosion, and Theresa immediately brought up the screen.
The Divine City Medicine Center had been reduced to ruins, the raging fire turning the area into a hellish scene.
"Chen Feng and Kiana should be there!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Theresa immediately decided to prepare to approach for landing.
"Get ready! Since there was an explosion, there must be enemies present. Be prepared for battle at any time!"
……
At this moment, Chen Feng, carrying the struggling raven, was rushing along the collapsed street towards the depths of Shencheng Medicine.
"Put me down! I have legs!"
The raven fluttered under his arm like a caught chick. "Chen Feng, you barbarian! My image! My manners!"
"I'll put you down when we get there."
Raven struggled in Chen Feng's arms for a moment, but finding it impossible to break free, it simply gave up.
"To the left, go forward another thirty meters, there's a sunken tunnel."
She pointed the way expressionlessly, her tone carrying a numb, resigned tone.
Chen Feng walked quickly in the direction she pointed, with Kiana following closely behind, her two pistols never being put away.
Chen Feng remained unfazed, his steps never faltering. "You gave pretty accurate directions. Looks like you're quite dedicated to your job."
The raven pursed its lips, clearly not wanting to bother with him anymore.
The underground structure of Shencheng Pharmaceutical was more complex than imagined. The rubble after the explosion blocked most of the original passages, leaving only some narrow gaps for passage.
The air was filled with a pungent smell of burning and chemicals, and unidentified liquid dripped from the pipes overhead, forming small streams on the ground.
"Your world's snakes have terrible taste."
Chen Feng casually complained, but his pace didn't slow down.
The raven rolled its eyes and didn't reply.
As the three traveled, Chen Feng suddenly stopped when they arrived at the outer perimeter of the underground laboratory of Shencheng Medicine.
Kiana nearly bumped into his back. She peered forward in confusion, her pupils suddenly contracting.
In the passage ahead, seven or eight figures lay sprawled haphazardly.
The silver-white Valkyrie armor gleamed coldly under the dim emergency lights, but the owners of those armors were all lying on the ground, some leaning against the wall, some lying motionless on the rubble.
The Undying Blade.
Rita's squad.
Chen Feng's gaze darkened.
He strode forward and placed the raven on the ground.
It's more like throwing away than putting it away.
Raven staggered a couple of steps before regaining its balance, muttering something under its breath, but Chen Feng was no longer in the mood to listen.
He crouched down to examine the Valkyrie closest to him.
Breathing was still going, but extremely weak.
All the energy indicator lights on the armor went out, and the Honkai energy fluctuations were almost zero.
It appears to have been attacked and absorbed the serum.
Shencheng Pharmaceuticals exploded, yet it still managed to stay consistent with the original storyline.
Is this corrective force?
"Chen Feng!"
Kiana's voice came from the other side of the passage.
Chen Feng looked up and saw Kiana supporting a petite Valkyrie. The woman's short, silver-gray hair was covered in dust, and her lips were chapped, but she was still moving with difficulty.
"Team... Captain..."
Alvit's voice was barely audible, her fingers gripping Kiana's sleeve so tightly that her nails almost dug into the fabric.
"Please... save the captain..."
Her eyes were half-open, her pupils somewhat dilated due to weakness, but when she looked in Chen Feng's direction, she burst forth with an almost obsessive plea.
"Rita... Lady Rita is still inside..."
"Please save Lady Rita..."
Chen Feng stood up and scanned the entire corridor with his eyes.
The fallen Valkyries were all still breathing, but all of them had lost their ability to fight.
In this ruin overrun by Honkai Beasts, they are now no different from ordinary people.
If he just leaves like that, any few Honkai Beasts could come and kill all of them.
"Chen Feng."
Kiana looked at him, her voice very soft, but she had already guessed what Chen Feng was thinking.
Chen Feng was silent for two seconds, then turned to look at Kiana.
Kiana, you stay and take care of them.
"What?"
Kiana frowned immediately and said excitedly, "No, I want to go too! It's too dangerous for you to go alone!"
"Stop joking around. You're also powered by Honkai energy. The situation there is far too dangerous for you."
Moreover, these Valkyries are currently unable to move, and they could be killed at any moment if a few Honkai Beasts came along.
And do you really think that the only creatures of the World Serpent here are ravens and jackals?
As he spoke, Chen Feng turned to look at Raven, who immediately trembled and turned her head away, seemingly wanting to distance herself from him.
Chen Feng has a feeling lately.
Kevin may have already arrived.
Although there is no evidence at all, it's just my intuition.
Kevin remembered very clearly what he had said to himself back in the Sea of Quanta.
If my performance truly meets Kevin's expectations, he might actually take the initiative to contact me.
Leaving Kiana here means that she is willing to meet with Kevin.
After all, Kevin wouldn't make a move against Kiana at this time, otherwise the subtle cooperation and test between her and Kevin would completely collapse.
Kiana's expression changed repeatedly, and finally, under Chen Feng's gaze, she reluctantly agreed.
"I see."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Feng nodded.
They had already arrived near the laboratory, and even without the raven's guidance, the route was basically clear.
But... I'll still keep it sandwiched between my legs.
At least be a hostage.
Before the raven could react, Chen Feng grabbed it again, and then he and the raven quickly disappeared into the crevice of the collapsed rubble at the end of the passage.
"Kiana...sir?"
Arvitt tentatively spoke.
"Just call me Kiana," the latter said without looking up. "Calling me 'adult' sounds weird."
"Why...why did you save us?"
Alvitt's voice was soft, "We are the Undying Blade, the forces of Destiny, and you..."
"And I am a Herrscher, a wanted criminal, an experimental subject that your Bishop dreams of capturing?"
Kiana finally turned her head, her deep blue eyes showing no emotion, simply looking at her calmly. "So what?"
Arvit was stunned.
"My affairs have little to do with you. You are just following orders. The person I really need to take revenge on is Otto."
"When I reach Otto, you can protect him then. At that point, I won't hold back."
Upon hearing this, Arvit remained silent for a long time before giving a weak smile.
"Yes, then I'll have to trouble you this time."
The moment the words fell, a suffocating sense of oppression suddenly struck, as if thousands of ice waters were pouring down on my head, and my whole body stiffened at that moment.
Arvit's pupils suddenly contracted to the size of pinpoints. She wanted to scream, but it felt as if an invisible hand was tightly gripping her throat.
Kiana turned her head away slowly, inch by inch, her body hard.
Not far behind her, a figure appeared out of nowhere.
Kevin.
