"Um, are you alright?"
Having failed to defeat Kevin with a single blow, Qiong felt a little uneasy. Before Kevin could make a move, he immediately switched from his staff to a spear, using the flaming spear to protect himself, and then slowly retreated.
"Qiong, stay away from him!"
With a thought, Walter unleashed the Father's iron fist upon Kevin, the somewhat frail, white-haired man.
Faced with the Father's attack, Kevin remained calm and composed. He raised his hand and waved it, instantly creating an ice wall identical to the one before. The Father's iron fist slammed heavily into the ice wall.
Ice shards flew everywhere, but the iron fist failed to break the solid ice.
"Is this all you're capable of, you who governs reason?"
Kevin revealed a mocking expression but did not further attack Old Yang. Instead, ignoring Walter behind him, he rushed straight towards Qiong, who was trying to hide further away.
Logically speaking, the Herrscher should be the priority. After all, Qiong is at most a young man who knows how to seize opportunities and launch surprise attacks. How can he compare to the Herrscher, humanity's greatest enemy?
But today, he really wanted to teach this kid who was traveling with the Herrscher a lesson first...
"No, is it really necessary for you to go through with this?"
Qiong smiled bitterly to himself. If he could, he really didn't want to fight Kevin. Even if they did fight, he hoped that Lao Yang would be the main force, and he would just be responsible for supporting the others.
But now, they're coming for him.
The only thing that gave Qiong a little peace of mind was that the flames of the lance in his hand were still burning fiercely. The protective flames could help him resist the minus thirty degrees Celsius cold air brought by Kevin, who was like a human air conditioner. His excellent defensive capabilities could also help him hold out until Walter came to his rescue.
"A warrior who walks alongside the Herrscher, you are indeed quite capable."
"Forehead……"
The shocking bloodstains on Kevin's face, combined with his perpetually unmoving, icy expression and the way he crossed his arms, looked very strange to Qiong.
"I say this not only because you can associate with the Herrschers."
"To be my comrade? Why does it feel like you're insulting me?"
"It's because you hurt me. No one has been able to do that for many years. Although it was my own negligence, you can still be proud."
"Um, I'm just a B-rank Valkyrie..."
"Tell me your name, I'll remember it."
Despite being protected by flames, Qiong still shivered. Kevin's words were reminiscent of a martial arts master preparing to unleash their full power after injuring an unknown nobody they had underestimated.
And that was indeed the case. Because of his own mishap, Kevin suddenly understood a saying Hua had once said: "Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, let alone the difference between him and the two of them, which is definitely not as great as the difference between hunter and prey."
"Name? Name? What? I'm Galaxy Batman! Bring it on!"
With a "let's give it a try" attitude, Qiong launched a sneak attack on Kevin while speaking, but Kevin, who was already on guard, dodged to the side and threw a punch. The force of the punch, carrying the power of ice and snow, rushed towards Qiong's exposed side. He hurriedly used the gun to block it. Although he was not injured, he was still knocked back several steps by the impact.
With a gentle wave, a cold wind howled, and the ice and snow even turned the flaming spear white for a moment before being melted by the rekindled flames.
Kevin simply stared coldly at the young man who had launched the sneak attack.
He was very courageous, attacking himself repeatedly with considerable force. Unfortunately, his methods were too unorthodox, relying entirely on instinct to fight, leaving him vulnerable all over.
“Young man, courage is commendable, but recklessness only leads to destruction. Your fighting skills are utterly terrible... and you weren't using your real name, were you?”
With the mindset of a veteran, Kevin commented on Qiong, who wielded a flame gun but called himself Batman. For a moment, he felt that he saw his former self in this kid—the self who was struggling to survive with Su in Changkong City, and the self who joined the Fire Moth as a new recruit because of Mei Gang.
"I, my name is..."
Qiong gripped the Flame Spear tightly, her eyes fixed on Kevin—and the approaching Father and Walter behind him.
Delay it a little longer, delay it a little longer and then attack from both sides!
"Um, cough cough!"
Kevin: ?
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Qiong's mindset had changed from nervous to confident.
Who gave him the courage? The Lawgiver of Reason?
"Listen up, I am Dan Heng, a man from China! Uncle Yang, make your move!"
Just then, Walter manipulated the Heavenly Father to bypass the ice wall and attack Kevin from above. However, Kevin seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, leaping out of the Heavenly Father's attack range and delivering a flying kick that struck Walter, who was running towards him—if he hadn't been prepared, he would probably have been kicked in the face...
However, Walter wasn't stupid. He instinctively conjured a shield that blocked the attack, and Kevin, who had kicked the shield, used it as a fulcrum to leap towards the sky.
"Again?"
Qiong felt a chill rush towards him, and he hurriedly swung his Flame Spear, shooting a towering pillar of fire towards Kevin—this move was quite energy-intensive, and he had only used it once before, when he was clearing out the Honkai Beasts along the Manila coast with Anna.
Kevin deftly sidestepped the flames, simultaneously conjuring a greatsword in his hand and slashing it at Qiong. Qiong parried with his flame spear, and the clash of spear and sword produced a piercing sound.
"Is that all? That's enough. Come at me all at once."
Kevin casually tossed aside the partially melted greatsword, spread his arms, and the surrounding temperature plummeted. He had already assessed the approximate strength and condition of the two opponents; now it was time for the final blow.
"Uncle Yang, use whatever tricks you have!"
Although he hasn't been injured yet, Qiong felt that he had used too much fire just now. He had accidentally overused it, causing his body temperature to drop slightly and even making him move more sluggish. He could only grit his teeth and try his best to maintain the flame of the fire spear.
Walter wasn't much better off. Although he wasn't seriously injured, he was clearly frozen without the protection of flames, and even his clothes were covered in frost.
"Buy me some time, buy me some time, Uncle Yang!"
"Okay, leave it to me!"
Encouraged by Walter's assurance, Qiong roared and charged toward Kevin. Ice flowers and sparks flew everywhere as her flaming spear pierced the solid ice again and again, blocking the ice blocks that flew in from time to time.
"You have already lost."
That was the end of the probing. He had already noticed that Qiong's speed had decreased slightly; the battle just now had exhausted too much of his energy and stamina—and the Herrscher of Reason, whose condition was clearly not good, was no longer able to command even the large robot from before.
Although neither of them has been defeated yet, their defeat is already inevitable, and it's time to speed things up for Iceberg.
Kevin snapped his fingers, and Qiong, who was very close to him, heard the snap and the subsequent trembling of the surrounding ice.
"This is... No, it's the will to protect! Unbreakable!"
The next moment, the ice blocks exploded, especially those that had just frozen the Quantum Shadow, which exploded particularly violently, and Kevin and Qiong were at the very center of the explosion.
"what!!!!!"
"Qiong!"
All the surrounding ice was detonated, including the frost clinging to Walter, but it caused no serious damage. When the icy mist from the explosion dissipated, Walter saw what the epicenter of the blast looked like—there was only an unharmed Kevin and an ice wall, another ice wall with a human-shaped gash burned into it.
Kevin looked at Walter, momentarily at a loss for words.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..."
The explosive force was too great. He forgot that the Quantum Shadow was still inside the ice. He had intended to use the wall to block the person, but the excessive force of the explosion converted into kinetic energy and the flame attribute of the Flame Spear itself forcefully pierced through the ice wall he had hastily constructed...
He won't die, but if he gets lost in the Sea of Quanta, unless he's exceptionally gifted, he'll quickly be assimilated by it if he's not pulled out quickly—but don't worry! Kevin knows the Sea of Quanta like the back of his hand!
"Herrscher, don't worry, he won't..."
"Kevin!!!"
However, Walter wouldn't listen to Kevin's subsequent explanation. His face contorted with rage, he charged forward with two purple-glowing Eden Stars in hand.
"Let me explain. I—you blocked my escape route in advance?"
He wanted to dodge and explain to Walter, but somehow his dodge route was blocked by the Father's massive body. The Father wasn't unable to continue fighting; he was simply cutting off his escape route.
"Eden's Star, Zero Rated Power, Complete Liberation!"
----------------
"Sister Bronya..."
Seele Vollerei disliked the Sea of Quanta. There were no stars, no moon, and certainly no Bronya. All she saw were endless, chaotic spacetime and countless world bubbles on the verge of destruction.
"It's so noisy! Can't you say anything other than Bronya?"
That being said, Seele also knew that she had no other options but Bronya.
"Huh? What's that?"
Seele looked into the distance and saw a red shooting star streak across the sea.
The "meteor" plunged headlong into the world bubble it hit, which both Seele and "Seele" were somewhat concerned.
"How about we go take a look?"
"Okay, whatever you say."

After collecting opinions, I have decided...
Give me an Aladdin's lamp!
