Operation Dawn Chapter 26 Lion King Ryan - Part 1
"Remember, we are the guards of Queen Honkai. We are the existence of the 'Fantasy Species-Honkai Species'. We want to bring the truth of Honkai Impact to this world... Don't forget your identity, Nerai."
A tall man with black hair, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses and a black windbreaker, holding a book titled "Anthology of Ancient Gama Poems - The Epic of King Ruyin" in his hand, was talking to a man with silver-white hair.
thin girl talking.
This girl is the person who calls herself "Nie Lai". She is a half-dragon from outside the world, and her brother "Niebo" is also a half-dragon. And half-dragons are basically "emperor-level collapse"
It is an advanced species of "Hainbeast level and above" and a humanoid Honkaimon that belongs to the "Fantasy species-Honkai species".
"But, brother, why do we have to listen to the Queen? Also, Lord Da Gama...why can't we have a good talk with humans?"
"Don't have such stupid ideas, Nielai. Ever since she left her hometown, Her Majesty the Queen has taken in us homeless people. For Her Majesty the Queen, we can do anything. Do you understand?"
Nielai couldn't believe it. She had always respected this brother. This Queen's guard, who was called the "Overlord", was loyal to the Queen and was a role model for other "Queen's Guards". On this day, they received the message from the Queen.
order to merge into a new existence, go to the earth far away from the back of the moon, and practice the will of collapse.
"Garon" is the fusion of Nierai and Nieber. Before the two half-dragons merged into this form, they were independent individuals from each other.
Nelei was forcefully dragged in front of the queen by "Overlord" Nebo. Behind the huge throne was where the queen was, and the two of them stood on a high platform on the cliff, waiting for the queen's order.
"Go." Under the command of a deep and ethereal rich female voice, Nebo dragged Nielai and jumped under the cliff. After seeing what Nielai let him see, Rin tightened his grip.
Hypernetus in his hand faced the roaring Garonne.
After Nelei's memories ended, she also said to Rin in an extremely ethereal voice, "We must defeat it." After hearing Nelei's words, Rin jumped towards Garon, held Hypernetus tightly,
Stab towards the dragon head with red eyes.
Rin was feeling restless at this time, and before he could stab Garon in the head, he was bitten by the huge dragon head, and then he was thrown heavily and fell to the rocky ground, forming a big pit.
"Cheer up! Master, although it is a simulation training, this is also a good opportunity to get familiar with my real power!" Nelei's voice kept cheering him up in his mind.
At the same time, the Overlord in his body seemed to have noticed the enemy in front of him, and also spoke:
"It turns out that there is a fusion of my sister and me here. It's really incredible... If you can't defeat it, I can't admit that you are the kind of person who can control our power. When the time comes, I will snatch your body.
Remember? Human."
Rin could cheer up after hearing the Overlord's words. He held Hypernetus tightly, climbed out of the pit, and faced Garon resolutely.
At this time, Rin's heart was extremely determined, and his idea of defeating it was also very determined. He also said: "I will defeat it, so that I can protect Captain Bronya and the others and become a solid support for everyone."
backing."
He jumped again, took out the flying blade, formed a flying skateboard under his feet, and flew up to fight the tall Garon. He saw the blue-eyed dragon head locking on Rin flying in the air, spitting out ice breath, but was controlled by Rin
He used the aircraft to avoid it, and the ice breath brushed against his cheek, forming blood streaks one after another.
"Beast King Sword Skill, Eviscerate!"
He jumped towards the dragon's head with a swift and violent gesture, aiming directly at the eyes of the blue dragon's head, slashing down with his sword, instantly cutting off a large piece of siliconized tissue.
"Slit throat, pierced eyes!"
The two swords were used again, causing a huge explosion, and the entire blue dragon head was cut off. Just after Rin thought the attack was successful, the other two dragon heads also attacked him, and the cut off dragon head on the ground also attacked him.
It spit out a ray of light at him.
Seeing that he was about to be hit, he subconsciously activated the Overlord Black Armor and covered his body to resist the shock waves of the three energies. Then, he activated the Demon King's aura to block all the energy, and the black aura exploded.
It sent out a huge shock wave and bounced the energy back.
"It seems that the training results are very good..." In front of the monitor screen, Alicia was eating the sandwich bread bought at the breakfast shop and drinking soy milk, watching everything with interest.
Rin's strength has advanced to a new level by leaps and bounds. Within a few minutes, he cut off all three of Garon's heads, causing it to temporarily stop moving.
"Don't be careless, Master."
After Nerai made a warning sound, Garon's three heads suddenly grew out of the broken wound, exactly the same as before. It seems that this is the reason why the powerful Miss Shizuru failed to stop Garon? Rinchi
I thought so in my mind.
Just with this kind of strength, it cannot catch up with Miss Jingliu, or even half of the strength of Captain Bronya. Miss Jingliu defeated Garon countless times, but still allowed Garon to enter the safe zone.
Thousands of innocent residents were massacred.
"What can be done to stop it? Nelei?"
"There is a core in Garon's chest. As long as the core is destroyed, it will stop moving and Garon will also release its fusion form."
However, after the resurrection, Garon became even more violent. It looked up to the sky and roared. The sky suddenly became dark, and blue meteors began to rain from the sky.
"Master, use the Queen's shield quickly!"
"what is that?"
"It's the flying blade shield."
It turned out that I had always called it the "Bone Shield", but I didn't expect that its official name was the "Queen's Shield", and it really had the style of the Honkai Queen's guard back then.
When Rin opened the queen's shield, the simulated Garon seemed to notice that the human in front of him was hurting himself with the weapons extracted from its remains, and he let out a mournful sound like crying.
"Rest in peace, my sister and I no longer want to be like you." The Overlord's voice appeared in Rin's mind at the same time. "Do it, Rin."
"I will."
I saw Rin gathering the rest of the flying blades to form a grating in front of him. Then, a huge shock wave shot out from the tip of Hypernetus' sword, aiming at Garon's chest, where the "core" was.
The place is its heart.
"Supreme Blade!"
Rin seemed to have merged his consciousness with Nerei and Nebo, using this technique that he had never used before. The strong beam of light penetrated from Hypernetus, engulfing Garon's chest.
After penetrating through, the giant object fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Along with the memories of the half-dragon brother and sister, Rin looked at the Garon, which was formed by the fusion of Nerai and Overlord, and turned into dust with the breeze, and it was inevitable that he was filled with emotion in his heart.
"Brother, do you still remember what happened after we merged?"
"I don't remember. At that time, I just wanted to fulfill my duties, but I didn't know why I did it... Now that I'm liberated, I don't have to dwell on the past anymore, Nielai."
Then, Rin felt as if his physical strength had been overdrawn, and he collapsed on the ground weakly. A few seconds before he passed out, he only saw the pink fairy lady, crouching down gently and stroking her with her hands.
his forehead.
When he woke up, his head was resting on Alicia's lap, and Alicia was looking at the boy in front of her with a doting look.
"Hey, Xiao Lin, you're awake. Sister, I lent you my thigh for a while~ You slept so sweetly?"
He quickly pulled away from Alicia's legs, and then looked around. It was still the simulation training room, unchanged.
"I really don't understand the charm. Originally, I wanted to let you lie down for a while. Do you just dislike Sister Alicia that much? Or are you shy, huh?"
"Did I faint again?" Rin asked. "It seems that the true power of Hypernetus is really... consuming physical strength."
Alicia replied: "Yes, it seems that I have to increase my intensity in training in the future. I can't even hold on to such a low-level Garonne. Xiao Lin, you are really weak. If this is the case,
If so, how can you date this pink fairy lady like me~?"
"Stop talking about this... By the way, Sister Alicia, does that Garon just now have a difficulty setting?"
"Yeah, that's the lowest difficulty. After all, I can't guarantee that I can release Garon in his heyday. After all, even I might have to spend nearly a minute."
Alicia explained that when Rin was conducting simulation training just now, out of concern for him, Garon was adjusted to a level where "an A-level Valkyrie could barely beat it." This was Garon's lowest difficulty level.
"Then, if Garon is used as an opponent for simulation training, will the captain do the same?"
"I don't know about this. Except for me, no one else takes 'Garon' as a target for simulation training, right?"
Although Alicia said it very easily, in Rin's eyes, this behavior seemed to violate the rules of destiny, which was what Alicia could do. He knew Alicia's ability, and he also
I know that she often does some outrageous things, as if they were born to please herself.
If she disobeys her wishes, she probably doesn't know what will happen to her. Thinking of this, Rin couldn't help but shudder. This high-level Valkyrie Alicia, who was named "Pure and Immaculate", is more powerful than she imagined.
horrible.
Since he had to carry out the devil training that Alicia had set for him, Alicia asked him to sleep in her office at night, because the training time was very tight and he basically had to do it as soon as he got up.
"Good night, Lady Alicia."
"Didn't you tell me a few times to call me sister Alicia? If you call me wrong again, I'll ignore you, huh~"
"Yes, Alicia...sister."
Time passed like this, and when the devil training continued on the fifth day, Rin seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. In Alicia's conscious space, he was no longer strong enough to pick up Hypernetus again.
He forcefully ate one of Alicia's shining arrows.
"Ah, are you okay? I accidentally hurt you, little cutie."
Seeing that she had hit Rin, she quickly disarmed her fighting stance and ran to Rin who fell to the ground. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Rin blocked her heart with the Overlord Scale Armor to prevent herself from being hit by an arrow.
Pierce the heart.
Although Rin would not die in Alicia's consciousness, he did not want to experience that kind of pain again.
"I'm tired, Lady Alicia."
"Call me sister, don't have to remind you to call me that every time...it's true."
It has been almost a week since I got along with Alicia, but I still haven't changed my name for her. After all, this is one of the second-in-commands of destiny, and her status is obviously high to the naked eye.
"I want to take leave. I haven't slept well these days." Rin stood up from the ground dragging his tired body.
Alicia also knew that he had been given too much training these days, so she apologized to him with a playful smile, then took his hand and said:
"Shall we go play?"
"ha?"
Afterwards, the two of them appeared on the street in District A of Mileya City, shuttling back and forth between various storefronts.
"This is Lady Alicia, welcome."
"Lady Alicia, I am so honored to come to this store!"
Almost every store she went to, the clerks and managers basically treated her with the highest courtesy, not only buying one, getting two free, but also offering various discounts. This situation made Rin very uncomfortable. He knew Alicia
My sister is very popular, but I didn't expect it to be to this extent. It seems that I understand Alicia a little better.
When the two of them entered a coffee shop, they saw a gray-haired woman sitting on a seat not far away. She was wearing sunglasses and took out her mobile phone to read something.
"Little Bronya! Here we come."
Rin didn't realize that the captain would appear here. It seemed that he had made an agreement with Alicia long ago.
"team leader."
When he walked up to Bronya, Bronya just took off her sunglasses, stared into his eyes quietly for a while, and then said:
"you lost weight."
Rin did not dare to say that Lady Alicia had conducted inhumane training on him during the past six days. He was only allowed to sleep for three hours a day, and then he was forced to be dragged into her consciousness space to practice, or to train.
Fight Garon in the field.
This kind of high-intensity training, looking at the entire destiny, is something that only Alicia can do. After all, in Rin's eyes, she is not a normal person.
"Really? Hahahaha." Rin laughed as if nothing happened. "Captain has also been working hard during this period."
"It's nothing hard, I just came over to see you."
After the two sat down, Bronya began to chat with Alicia, all about Rin's training arrangements and subsequent training content.
"Here, Rin, this is your bonus for this month. It's from above."
Bronya handed him a small envelope with the word "Bonus" written on it. Lin took it carefully and opened it. There was not much in it, only five or six of the largest denomination, one thousand denomination.
of Maireya coins.
However, this is a huge sum for Rin.
"Whether I help you keep it or you take the flowers yourself is your choice." Bronya said with a pleased smile. "This is the first time you have received a bonus."
"Thank you so much."
Alicia on the side interjected: "Well, Xiaolin, I have to do other things next, so let the captain take you back~ You are tired too."
"Eh? Is the training over?"
"That's right, I decided to give you time to rest. If you still want to do that kind of training, I will give you this."
Alicia took out a small USB drive. According to her, it contains the battle data between herself and Garon. You can go to the training ground at any time to pull these two virtual enemies out to fight. This is like a battle for Rin.
Like a treasure, he happily took the combat data and thanked him again and again.
After Alicia left, Bronya revealed that the reason for coming to find Rin this time was about a new mission.
"There is another mission. During this time, you are receiving training from Sister Alicia, so I won't disturb you."
Rin immediately asked Bronya, "What mission is it?" He also realized that he had not been assigned a new mission for a long time since the last mission to find Adam. Moreover, it didn't take long for Bronya to recover from her injury.
, and immediately participated in the cleanup of New Arcadia, without much free time at all.
"The next place we are going to is a place called 'Catricillo'. There is a mine in that place and it is occupied by people from New Arcadia. The leader is called 'Lion King' Ryan. We are going to
Go there and get Ryan back."
Bronya briefly explained the content of the task.
Then, she went on to say that the members of Group 6 of the Special Operations Group were previously responsible for the clearing operation against Lane, but it lasted for two full weeks and failed to capture the stronghold. This shows that Lane is a very difficult enemy to deal with.
She took out a photo of Ryan. He was a tall and sturdy man with dark skin. The scar on the right side of his face showed that he had been a battle-hardened mercenary and must have had a lot of combat experience.
Rin subconsciously wanted to go to Dr. Edward, who was once a colleague of New Arcadia, and inquire about Ryan. After telling Bronya that he still had some things to deal with, he quickly took Ryan's photo.
, go to the hospital in the first medical department and ask Dr. Edward to confirm.
"Your next target is him."
After getting the photo for confirmation, Dr. Edward just said this lightly, and then returned the photo to Rin with a smile on his face.
"Are you familiar with him?" Rin asked. "How many of them did you have a good relationship with before you left New Arcadia?"
Doctor Edward smiled and replied: "Not much, but I'm sure that Ryan and New Arcadia are not of the same mind. He has his own ideas."
Then, Dr. Edward said that Ryan had some big prejudices against the members of the Polaris Alliance who led New Arcadia. They all felt that they had violated their original intentions and would rather accept the transformation of the Rebirth Plan and become human beings.
No one, no one without laws, is unwilling to follow the wishes of the previous founders of New Arcadia.
Therefore, he was stationed at the Catrillo Mine this time just under Agnes's order. If there was a channel to communicate with him, it would not be difficult to instigate Ryan.
"Are you going to act with us this time?" Rin asked him. After all, with an old acquaintance like Dr. Edward, Ryan must know him and be able to communicate with him.
However, Dr. Edward rejected Rin's proposal, saying that he would be participating in the research of a new project this week and could only let Rin find a way.
"I believe you can imagine it, so let Aqiya accompany you. After all, she has returned to your team."
After Dr. Edward said these words, he said goodbye to Rin on the grounds that he had something to do.
When Rin returned to the dormitory, as soon as he entered the door, he saw a girl with short white hair and wearing a pure white dress-style pajamas standing at the door, as if she wanted to open the door after hearing the movement of the door. As soon as Rin came in, the girl
She was startled and quickly took a few steps back. She was Aiqia, with the same cautious look that Rin was all too familiar with.
"Miss Aqiya? How could you..."
At this time, Bronya quickly came over and signaled to Aiqia to let her rest. Then she pulled Rin into the room and explained to him the matter of letting Miss Aiqia temporarily return to the seventh unit.
Come.
"You are not here during this period. As a temporary member of our army, Aiqiya has been accompanying us on missions for some time."
Rin suddenly remembered that he had been trained by the devil Alicia this week. Then, after Bronya explained it to him, she told him that the task time would be tomorrow at noon and let him have a good sleep.
.
After all, Alicia also told her that Rin only slept about two or three hours a day during this period. Maybe for someone like her, it is not difficult to have fun all night at her own home at midnight.
He has very strong physical strength and does not look like a normal person at all.
However, after returning to the room to rest, Rin was thinking about some of the things Alicia had asked him, including how to control the overlord cells, so as not to cause trouble for the captain and the others tomorrow.
trouble.
Team 6 has been fighting for two weeks but failed to capture the stronghold. What kind of ruthless character is Ryan? This is what he was thinking at this time.
At this moment, he saw an extra cup of warm milk on his table. He, who had been thinking about something just now, was attracted by this cup of milk. There was also a note underneath the milk, which read:
"Drinking it while it's hot can help adjust your biological clock."
This beautiful cursive calligraphy was written by Bronya. Only she could write such gorgeous but illegible calligraphy. He knew that the captain was thinking about him a lot during this time, and he probably got it from Captain Mei.
After understanding some of his situation and drinking hot milk, he quickly went to bed.
Noon the next day - Catrillo Mine - Extraction Point
Everyone has arrived at the location of the operation. This operation is led by Bronya, and the team members are Rin, Jingliu, Ritter, Linqi and Aiqia.
"The target has been stationed here, Jingliu, you and I come, we break through, the rest of the people follow behind, always pay attention to the situation ahead."
After arranging the action order, Bronya took out her weapons and rushed straight to the front of the team with the deputy captain Jingliu. Not long after they were discovered by the enemy, there were no more gunfire after a few gunshots.
There was movement.
"Safe." Bronya's voice came from the communicator.
Rin held the rifle he brought out from New Arcadia in his hand. In normal tasks, he was accustomed to using the combination of Hypernetus and Dragon Fang, but because Bronya was worried that he would suffer from using Hypernetus
When Tusi was in his state, he was easily affected by the overlord cells and went berserk, so he was specially brought with him.
"Let's go, Rin, let's follow the captain and the others." Lin Qi picked up the spear and prepared to follow. Ritter also ran up, and Rin had to take out his Hypernetus and followed quickly behind everyone.
.
Entering the mine, there were a lot of New Arcadia security personnel here, as if they were guarding something. Bronya and Jingliu moved very quickly, and they almost killed these people with lightning speed.
Ten miscellaneous soldiers then used gestures to direct the team members to follow.
"You are still hesitant to be an enemy of your former colleagues." Bronya noticed that Jingliu seemed a little slow.
Jingliu, who was wearing a mask, shook his head, saying that he could distinguish his enemies from his companions and that he didn't need the captain to worry about him. When they reached almost the depths, everyone had already discovered the target, which was called "Lion King".
"New Arcadia Executive Director.
He was wearing a short-sleeved new Arcadia combatant uniform, he was quite tall, and a pair of black lion-head iron fist gloves gave people an extremely terrifying sense of pressure. He was leading his men to inspect inside the mine. While everyone was
Hiding behind a huge rock, for fear of being discovered by the target.
"Can't the entire Sixth Unit subdue him? Captain."
Rin also recognized Ryan at a glance, and he looked exactly the same as in the photo. He took out the photo, compared it carefully, and asked Bronya about the information about the target "Lion King" Ryan.
Bronya nodded. Although she didn't know why the people of the Sixth Unit were defeated by him, Ryan really didn't feel like an ordinary strong man, but was different from the new ones he met before.
The members of Arcadia's North Star are all mutant monsters that are half human and half Herrscher.
"who?"
His senses seemed to be aware of something moving here. Before his subordinates were assassinated, someone seemed to have tipped off Ryan that there was an intruder. Ryan slowly walked to the huge rock, and everyone's instinctive perception
Danger has arrived.
"boom."
The rock was smashed to pieces by Ryan's punch, and the camouflage provided by Bronya's dimensional weapon allowed the entire team to temporarily remain invisible to the naked eye, otherwise they would have to run into Ryan.
"Come out, I don't have the patience to play hide and seek with you."
Just when the subordinates saw Ryan talking to the air in front of them, the people hiding under the disguise still did not make a sound. Good training can even allow them to eliminate their own aura. However, Ryan is not an ordinary person. He has already
I feel like there's someone here.
"Officer Ryan, why is there anyone here? Isn't there nothing?"
"No, they're right here."
After Ryan just said a brief sentence, he gathered his fist wind again and punched the air in front of him, hitting an emerald green barrier that appeared from the shadow. It was Rin's Queen's Shield, and he punched Hai
Bonetus took it out and resisted Ryan's heavy blow. At the same time, all the team members were exposed.
When he saw Rin and others, Ryan frowned at first, and then returned to his usual expression, as if he had remembered something.
"You are the people of destiny, right? The people who have been coming here to cause trouble for us some time ago."
Seeing that all of them were exposed, Bronya made an "attack" gesture. In an instant, the team members took up their positions and attacked Ryan one after another.
"You go first, I will deal with them." Ryan ordered his men to retreat quickly. "I want to see what you are capable of."
Lin's Hypernetus and Ryan's black gold gauntlet collided together, sending out a powerful impact. The air was atomized under the violent vibration, mixed with dust, and formed a thick smoke. At the same time, Broni
Ya's dimensional weapon also activated, condensing into an iron fist much larger than Ryan's fist, and punched him, but it was easily blocked by his other hand.
"I know you, you are the young man Aiden and I mentioned."
When Ryan said these words, Rin suddenly realized that Ryan seemed to recognize him the moment he saw him, and the timing of his action became a little hesitant. But the others did not care at all about what Ryan said.
If so, still attack him.
Jingliu quickly moved around behind Ryan, preparing to use his secret sword skill on him, but Ryan reacted and unfolded a golden barrier to block the sword.
"Jingliu, it seems you have betrayed New Arcadia."
"I just chose my own path. For me, New Arcadia betrayed me first. I just reasonably expressed my dissatisfaction."
Lin Qi, Rin, Bronya and Jingliu jointly besieged Ryan, but they were unable to hurt him through his impenetrable defense, and he resolved all the attacks one by one.
Rin lamented that while Ryan was difficult to deal with in front of him, he was also dealing with the cannonballs and fists that Ryan bombarded from time to time. He only focused on deploying the Queen's Shield defense with all his strength, and had no chance to use the Beast King's sword skills.
"Aiden and I have some friendship, your name is Rin, right? If you can't even pass my test, let alone defeat Agnes!"
Ryan's offensive became even more fierce. At this time, he seemed to have turned into a huge beast, staring at Rin alone, and violently bombarded his Queen's shield with both fists.
"Don't even think about succeeding!" Jingliu saw Rin being targeted by Ryan and rushed forward to attack him with sword skills.
However, the attack did not work. Just like when others attacked Ryan, whenever they attacked him, a golden barrier would appear. That barrier was indestructible. No matter what kind of attack was used, it would be reflected back with the same force. Bullock
Nia discovered this and ordered everyone to stop attacking to prevent backlash from damage.
However, only Rin's sword can hit his body accurately, and only when Rin fights back, the golden barrier will not unfold. This seems to be Ryan's Herrscher-like ability.
Rin and Ryan fought alone. Rin's progress during this period was very rapid. In terms of swordsmanship, reaction speed and strength, he was able to cater to Ryan's attacks. The two were in a stalemate with terrifying strength.
It lasted for about ten minutes before stopping.
"Not bad, but judging from the fact that you are going to defeat Agnes, there is still a long way to go."
"Why are you telling us this?" Rin asked breathlessly. "Aren't you our enemy?"
"Enemies? My enemies are only weak. The people who came before you were too weak. They were so weak that they only had brute force. They couldn't even see what kind of existence I was."
Ryan stopped attacking and stood not far away from Rin, talking face to face. Ritter thought this was a good opportunity to attack, but Bronya seemed to hear some clues from Ryan's words, so she signaled
He doesn't want to shoot.
"Do you know Aiden?" Lin asked when she saw that Ryan didn't take action.
Ryan nodded and admitted that Aiden and he had an unusual friendship. The two of them could be said to have talked about everything since the company was founded, and they also knew about Aiden being kicked off Agnes.
"Since you know the reason why Aiden left New Arcadia, why do you still want to help New Arcadia?"
"It's a very simple reason." Ryan geared up again. "Because I'm very weak, just like Aiden, and we can't resist Agnes. He's not an ordinary Herrscher. If I want to defeat him, I can only
Wait for an opportunity."
Seeing that Ryan's hostility gradually weakened, Bronya stepped forward and said:
Chapter completed!
