The Vixen's Gambit: Tonight We Hunt

What did he do?

The answer was simple, that is, he was constantly exercising and becoming stronger!

In the past six months, Kevin had never rested. He spent almost every minute and every second thinking about how to make his moves stronger, how to make his power greater, and how to make his skills more perfect in battle.

He didn't want to close his eyes, he didn't dare to close his eyes! Whenever his eyes closed, the cruel pictures would be displayed in front of him one by one, reminding him how desperate weakness was.

In order to take revenge, he could only continue to become stronger, so how could this vengeful ghost, who now accumulated countless anger and lost the only chain that bound him, called kinship, be resisted by Elysia and Hua, who had stood still?!

Kevin's strength was so strong, and Kevin's determination was even harder than his strength – Elysia also realized this.

It was already impossible to subdue Kevin and make him give up his thoughts, so the only thing left was.....

"Hua, go get Cosmic Juggernaut."

Elysia silently stood up. "Then use its first rated power to exile Kevin to the Sea of Quanta. It's the only way."

Indeed, even as strong as Kevin was, he couldn't escape from the Sea of Quanta by violence. If he could successfully exile Kevin to the bottom of the Sea of Quanta, it would naturally prevent this man's crazy actions.

But although the first rated power process of Cosmic Juggernaut was basically irreversible, it required preparation time. During this period, with Kevin's strength, he could completely destroy the body of Cosmic Juggernaut. Moreover, now, let alone using the power of this Divine Key, it was hard to say whether they could leave this battlefield and bring it over.

"I'll hold Kevin back. After you bring Cosmic Juggernaut, just use it directly on Kevin."

".....I understand." Hua clutched her wound and was silent for a moment, then resolutely turned and left.

Even if she wanted to hold Kevin back herself and let Elysia go to get Cosmic Juggernaut, Hua also knew that with her current condition, she probably couldn't even hold him back.

Therefore, all she could do now was to complete Elysia's plan as quickly as possible.

Kevin did not stop Hua from leaving, but just watched all this coldly.

"Elysia, I said I would temporarily spare your life, but that's on the premise that you don't stand in the way." On the battlefield that had already turned into a basin, Kevin calmly gave the final ultimatum. "This is the last chance, give up, or die."

"I still can't die." Even though she was covered in wounds and in a sorry state, Elysia still tried to show a bright smile. "After all, I haven't done any of the things Lee asked me to do~"

".....Heh."

After hearing this name, Kevin's expression finally changed, but it was just a complex laugh that Elysia couldn't understand.

"Oh, what's so funny?" Elysia tried to find out the reason for the change in Kevin's mood. "Do you want to know what Lee asked me to do? I can tell you."

".....That's not something you should know."

The change in emotion was almost like Elysia's illusion. In the blink of an eye, Kevin's expression returned to the indifference like ice.

"Since you have made a choice, then....."

The flames of Might of An-Utu gradually extinguished, replaced by a coldness that made it difficult to breathe.

The next moment, the ice and snow that could almost freeze time, together with Kevin's figure that was gradually becoming inhuman, attacked Elysia!

Unlike the previous battles, this attack was Kevin's true full strength – the full strength that was enough to completely put Elysia to death!

Although she had built a defense of crystal flowers, this shield that could block the footsteps of any Herrscher's attack was as vulnerable as waste paper in front of the current Kevin, and it couldn't even stop his footsteps.

At this moment when Kevin really showed his killing intent, Elysia finally realized the insurmountable gap between the two.

Not only in strength, but also in – determination.

In this attack, Kevin's determination to eliminate the Honkai at all costs surged towards her like a landslide and a tsunami..... How could she resist?

How could she have the same determination as this madman?!

I don't know what kind of changes Kevin went through to have such a crazy determination, but Elysia felt that now neither her love nor her hatred was as strong as Kevin's determination.

Originally, her strength was inferior, and now even her determination was inferior to the other party. Under such circumstances, even if Elysia used her authority to strengthen herself regardless of everything, she could only end up turning into broken ice.

Quick, Elysia, think of a way to break Kevin.....

I don't know if it was the flashback before death, but Elysia's thinking became extremely active at this moment, as if everything around her, including herself, had slowed down, giving her time to think.

But what was the use of having time? Faced with the strongest killing move of the strongest person in history, Elysia was helpless.

And if even she couldn't, who in this world could stop Kevin in front of her?

Who else could have the same determination as Kevin in front of him, to move forward even if he had to abandon the lives of everyone in the world.....

In a trance, a white back seemed to appear in front of Elysia's eyes.

That's right, if you want to compare with Kevin's madness of trampling on a civilization to move forward, there is only Lee's love of slaughtering all humans to save, right?

With the same determination, Lee could change fate and let the civilization that was originally completely dissipated in the hands of the Herrscher of Finality retain the fire that could wait to be ignited.

Lee was no longer there..... But if she had the same thinking and will as Lee, could she also create miracles?

She didn't know the real ending of Lee in the end. In Elysia's eyes, Lee was still the person who could always break the impossible. Even if she lost to Kevin in the end, it was probably just because she didn't have such a strong desire to live.

Therefore, in order to break the predicament in front of her, Elysia began to – imagine.

If Lee was still there, how would she deal with the current situation? If Lee was still there, what kind of power could she burst out?

Think..... think!

At this moment when she refused to give up, Elysia burst out all her potential.

Consciousness in this world is unique. Once it dissipates, it will never come back, and neither the preserved memory nor the AI will be the real self.

Lee's consciousness had dissipated, especially now that her true consciousness had withdrawn from this world, it was impossible to recall it.

But just because the self was not there, it didn't mean that an existence consistent with the self could not be created!

If the consciousness of the body is the truth mapped to the world by the center, then the center of this person can also be traced back and pieced together by the impression left by one person in the world.

The difficulty of this work was so great, like constructing the appearance of a pen that wrote it through the traces left by ink, but Elysia's Herrscher authority was to let her become a woman who could do anything!

But her own impression of Lee alone was not enough, so.....

Eighth Divine Key – activate for her!

The authority belonging to the Herrscher of Origin was fully deployed at this moment. Under Elysia's breakthrough, even the stable structure of the Eighth Divine Key could finally not resist, and bloomed with its own moonlight!

At this moment, the consciousness originally engraved in the core finally reappeared on this land at this moment!

The first thing that appeared was fire, the raging fire that seemed to be able to burn everything slightly dispelled the coldness around, and then swept towards Kevin regardless of everything!

After that, the fangs of the giant snake and the claws of the devil also attacked him. The tentacles of the peacock and the butterfly stretched towards his consciousness in a hazy way, and the giant whale and mechanical creations blocked his retreat.....

Kevin subconsciously wanted to hold Might of An-Utu back, but found that the weapon that should have been hanging on his waist had disappeared without a trace at this moment.

It could be said that they had been separated for a hundred years, or it could be said that they had been separated for tens of thousands of years. The comrades-in-arms appeared in front of him again, and as soon as they appeared, they cooperated tacitly to attack him – would Kevin be emotional?

No, even if the 100 million consciousnesses in the Eighth Divine Key appeared here at the same time, Kevin's attack would not tremble at all!

But facing nine enemies alone, even if they were just fantasies temporarily manifested by Elysia using her authority and the Divine Key, Kevin finally felt a little pressure – not much, but at least it had made it impossible for him to easily solve the battle in a few moves as before.

.....No, was he really unable to solve the battle in a short time, or was he..... expecting something?

Casually freezing Kalpas's flames, Kevin didn't rush to kill Elysia, who was panting due to overuse of her authority, but while fighting, he subconsciously searched among these figures with his eyes.

These people were the MANTIS Soldiers who survived to the end. Since they appeared now, was there a possibility that Lee would also appear?

After all, since Lee could collect the consciousness of the others into the core, maybe she also left her own consciousness in the core at the last moment.....

But the more he looked, the more disappointed Kevin became.

In the end, there was still none.

Even if he had waited for such a long time.....

"The farce is over."

After smashing the figure of the giant snake again, Kevin finally lost his patience.

He felt that the surrounding space had been isolated from the intrinsic world and formed a tiny world bubble projection. This showed that Hua had arrived with Cosmic Juggernaut and activated its first rated power. The passage of the Sea of Quanta was opening, and soon this entire area would be exiled to the bottom of the Sea of Quanta.

Although even if their plan succeeded, it would not cause any harm to Kevin, but it would waste Kevin a lot of time..... His life was to be used for revenge, not wasted in an empty world bubble.

With one blow, he shook off all the enemies around him. Kevin approached Elysia almost instantly.

No matter how many opponents there were, they were just fantasies constructed by Elysia using her authority and the Divine Key. As long as this body was killed, the remaining enemies would naturally not be able to maintain their existence.

Killing companions was always a painful thing, but Kevin was already prepared to accept it. After all..... Compared with what he had suffered, this pain alone could no longer make him frown.

And now Elysia, who was weak, had no ability to dodge or resist.

But just because Elysia couldn't, didn't mean that others couldn't!

At this moment, using these MANTIS Soldiers who were close to Lee and were awakened, and all her impressions of Lee, Elysia finally took that step.

Not awakening the stored consciousness, but creating the consciousness that should have disappeared. Elysia relied on her own imagination to restore Lee's existence!

And this false existence had no carrier, so Elysia divided her brain into two parts, and used one of them to – become Lee!

Boom!!

A small fist appeared in a place that Kevin couldn't even notice. At the moment of contact with his waist, it slammed the unprepared him away!

"?!"

The knocked-away Kevin was also stunned, not because the attack caused any real damage to him, but because of the person who shot!

The fluttering white hair danced in the air, and the young face had a confident smile and light – Kevin would not mistake it, even if his eyes were stabbed blind, he could not mistake the person in front of him.

"Lee.....?"

Not only Kevin, but even the others who were still besieging Kevin were stunned at the moment they saw this figure.

At the moment when Elysia activated the Eighth Divine Key and let them appear to fight, he and the others' consciousness also completed communication in an instant, and these people also knew the cause and effect of the matter, and – the news of Lee's death.

The reason why they chose to help Elysia so decisively was largely because the other party was now fighting for Lee's last wish.

But now the person who had already died stood here, and she was still in the most energetic appearance of that year.....

Even if they knew that this was not the real person, they still couldn't control their thoughts.

But these people were stunned, but Lee, who was limited, didn't hesitate at all. At the moment of knocking Kevin away, she grabbed Elysia's collar without hesitation and threw her fiercely towards the outside world!

This world bubble was sinking into the Sea of Quanta, and even the passage was gradually closing. If Elysia stayed here, she would soon be locked here with Kevin. Even if Hua had Cosmic Juggernaut, there was no way to rescue Elysia alone.

Doing things – especially when fighting is extremely pragmatic, this is also an important impression of all people on Lee.

In this trance, Kevin just stared blankly at the figure in front of him, not even stopping Elysia who was thrown out and the other warriors who were taken back into the Divine Key.

But he also didn't say anything, just looking at everything in front of him, until Elysia left, and Lee's figure also disappeared in front of him.

Lee was fake, he knew this better than anyone, but..... If he wanted to kill Elysia, this constructed Lee would definitely protect Elysia with all her strength, unless he eliminated her.

".....Not like at all."

In the empty world bubble, Kevin finally spoke, muttering to himself.

"She's not such a person who only has light."

But his sighs, like all the truth, were only heard by himself.

...

In the intrinsic world, Elysia had fallen to the ground in embarrassment.

Although she was originally prepared to die to stop Kevin, she didn't expect to be saved by Lee again in the end..... Sure enough, Lee always created miracles, even the Lee she created.

But why, in the end, Lee couldn't protect herself.....

But now the biggest problem was not to consider this.

Feeling the excited consciousness constantly transmitted from the Eighth Divine Key in her chest, Elysia lay tiredly on the ground.

What should she do next.....
