Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

Chapter 178: The whole picture of the unknown illusion, the white robe disappeared unexpectedly

Patrick's right half of the body gradually twisted, and she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. She quickly took off her equipment and jumped to the left, but she was still a step too late. Her right arm was forcibly twisted off, and the removed right arm exploded directly the next second.

Blood gushed out like a fountain, staining the floor with a layer of blood-red paint.

“Ahem…”

"Ahh...she dodged me..."

When Xilin saw this, an unhappy expression suddenly appeared on her delicate face, but just as she reached out to tear the goddess in front of her into pieces again, a condensed and pure purple thunder ball suddenly attacked her.

"What--?!"

Xilin couldn't help but frown, and her originally unhappy expression suddenly turned into panic.

But there was no time to dodge. Just as the lightning ball emitting arcs of electricity was about to hit Xilin, the man in white robe suddenly appeared in front of Xilin and protected her behind him. At the same time, an ice wall condensed in front of him to block the lightning ball head-on.

boom!

The continuous collision between ice and thunder instantly released a large amount of white mist. The reactor area was suddenly covered by the white mist in all directions, and the white robe and Xilin's figure disappeared.

"Humph."

A light hum came from somewhere, and the next second, a strong wind blew away all the white mist in the reactor area. But when the mist dissipated, the man in white robe and Xilin disappeared from the spot.

"Let them escape..."

The man in black robe murmured softly, then looked at Patrick who was squatting on the ground, walked over to help her up, casually glanced at her broken right arm, and took out a roll of bandage from somewhere to bandage her.

"Who are you?"

Although the pain from the broken arm was bearable, Patrick saw a man in a robe whose face could not be seen clearly and he obviously had some psychological trauma. If he had not seen the man trying to bandage himself, he would have tried his best to escape.

"Don't worry, Miss Patrick. I was sent by the Bishop to support you. Please forgive me for not showing my appearance to others. Believe it or not, one thing you can rest assured is that I am in a hostile relationship with that man in white robes."

"...Why should I trust you?"

"...Hehe, Miss Patrick, you are a spy sent by Anti-Entropy, right? Isn't this information enough?"

"—?!"

Patrick opened her eyes wide in disbelief. It was impossible for anyone to know that she was an anti-entropy spy. But before she could continue asking questions, the man in black robe put his hand on her shoulder and said.

"I'm sorry, Miss Patrick. I know you don't trust me right now, but you don't have any other choice. I have stopped the bleeding for you. Next, I will take you directly to the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, Walter. Please be prepared."

As the man in black robe finished speaking, a black shadow flashed and they also disappeared from the spot.

.....................

Outside the Tower of Babel, 17 km.

The space twisted for a while, and then it was torn apart in the next second. After two figures, one white and one purple, walked out of it, the torn space was gradually stitched together.

As soon as Xilin came out, she apologized to Jiang Ming. Her hesitant look and puffed cheeks made her look cute, but deep down she was afraid of being scolded.

"I'm sorry, brother, I didn't expect that to happen. I will definitely be able to kill her next time..."

"..."

Jiang Ming looked at Xilin behind him, who was not yet as tall as his chest. He just put his hand on her head, rubbed it, and chuckled.

"It's nothing. Just practice more in the future. You'll have as many immovable targets as you want. Besides, isn't it the brother's duty to protect his sister? Putting this aside, you should have seen the person who attacked you just now, right?"

"Yes, it was a man in a black robe."

Xilin clenched her fists in anger and gritted her teeth.

"If I meet him again, I will definitely..."

"No... this is the only thing that won't work."

Before Xilin could finish her harsh words, Jiang Ming squatted in front of Xilin seriously, his tone full of warnings.

"That guy's strength is unfathomable, and there are only a few people in this world who can stop him. Xilin, you don't understand the current situation. I can't let you take risks, and I will never allow you to face him."

"If he insists on going against us, I will stop him. Xilin, you go deal with the others, understand? If you don't agree, your brother will be angry too."

"..."

"Wow...Xilin knows..."

Although she was unwilling, Xilin was still unwilling to disobey the brother who helped her and loved her.

"Xilin is the best. Brother will always be by your side. By the way, how is the Honkai energy absorbed in the Honkai reactor?"

"Well, I have been absorbing Honkai energy as you said. According to the calculation you taught me before, there are about 3000 HW in the core of my body now, and there are still 3500 HW that have not been absorbed."

"That's not necessarily true..."

Jiang Ming smiled slightly, and a deep purple core appeared in his hand. The core emitted a purple starlight that was both charming and dangerous. This was not the Chi You core, but a Honkai energy crystal that Jiang Ming directly condensed using a large amount of Honkai energy.

"This is--!?"

"Well, how could I bear to let Xilin absorb it alone? From morning to noon, I have been trying to condense the Houkai energy in the Houkai reactor into a solid. The remaining 3500HW Houkai energy has all been condensed in this core. Didn't you notice? It's just convenient for you, Xilin, to absorb it at any time."

"——!? Thank you, brother......"

It turns out that my brother has always been thinking about me... But if you think about it carefully, this is what he should do, since he is my brother who loves me so much.

"Well, let's stop here for the small talk. You need to go there next."

Jiang Ming pointed behind Xilin. Xilin followed his gaze and looked back. She was immediately surprised - a huge purple sphere wrapped in silicon appeared in front of them. The inside could not be seen from the outside. There were several diamond-shaped blue-red ores around it.

"What's this?"

"I don't know either, but it will guide you. I can't go in, Xilin, you go in, and we'll see you later."

Only then did Xilin discover that there was a super small charging-level Honkai beast in Jiang Ming's palm.

"..."

"What... is this? I've never seen this creature before... but it gives me a very familiar feeling..."

"This is the Honkai Beast, and it is also your subordinate. Originally, they only obeyed your orders, but now they seem to listen to me as well. It is probably because I helped you, Xilin."

"Ah, by the way, I have ordered a large number of Honkai beasts to attack there. As long as they block it, we still have plenty of time."

The Assault-level Honkai Beast in Jiang Ming's hand circled around Xilin, as if trying to guide her into the purple ball of light in front of him.

"You go in with it first, I'll wait for you outside."

"..."

Xilin nodded obediently, and after turning her head to take a last look at Jiang Ming who was smiling at her, she followed the small assault-level Honkai beast into the ball of light.

"...Where is...this place?"

It was a strange environment. There was water on the ground but it didn't sink deep. Xilin walked slowly in this strange space and looked around.

[Wow...Mom, Mom...]

"—!!"

Xilin's expression froze instantly. A little girl was kneeling in front of a hospital bed, calling out for her mother. However, her mother had been covered by a white cloth and was already lifeless...

"Mother..."

[Mom... don't abandon Xilin... Xilin will be obedient and won't make any mistakes... Mom... Mom... ah ah...]

"No... No... I don't want to..."

Tears fell from the corners of her eyes without Xilin noticing. But before she could touch [Xilin] in front of her, as if realizing that it was not enough, the scene changed again.

"Ah!"

She suddenly fell to the ground for unknown reasons. She could no longer exert her physical strength. The feeling of death and fear filled her body, causing her body to tremble uncontrollably...

She couldn't do anything, but she could see that a devastating attack was coming towards her, and she knew that if she was hit, she would definitely die and it would be very painful.

"No...No! I don't want to die! It hurts so much, it hurts so much..."

It seemed as if time had gone back to the moment when her brother appeared in front of her, and she called out subconsciously.

“Brother…Brother——!!”

Just as the force was about to hit her, a white shadow flashed in front of Xilin, and a man in a white robe protected her under his body, gently wiped the tears from her face, smiled and comforted her softly.

"Don't be afraid, Xilin, your brother is here."

"No...Brother you can't...?!"

Before Xilin could say anything, the man in white robe gently pressed Xilin's mouth with his left hand, and put his index finger of his right hand in front of his mouth, making a "hush" gesture.

At the same time, the white robe on his body was completely destroyed by the attack, revealing his original appearance. Jiang Ming showed a doting smile on his face.

"Hush, isn't it your duty as a brother to protect your sister? Xilin, stay alive... your brother will always be by your side..."

“Mmmmm———?!!”

'don't want!!!!!!'

Even if she tried her best to scream in her heart, even if she wanted to move her body, it was useless. The powerlessness of her body made her unable to do anything. She just watched her brother block the attack for her and turned into ashes...
