Chapter 105: Serpent Invasion

Chapter 105: Serpent Invasion

The giant snake was pitch black, ferocious, and huge in size.

There is no doubt that this is an Honkai beast, a Honkai beast of a very high rank.

In terms of scale, it is the largest one Kirataka has ever seen.

And its identity is naturally self-evident—

In this quantum sea, the Honkai beasts that were born from the power of the imaginary space are not the "natives" here, but the quantum shadows are.

Therefore, it is an alien species just like him, Seele, and Sirin.

A familiar name immediately came to Kirataka's mind:

Kevin Kaslana!

One thousand five hundred years ago, he was sealed in the deepest part of the quantum sea by Su using the second-rated power of the Cosmic Juggernaut, the Horizon Inversion, but he did not disappear.

He has been lying in wait, waiting for the day when he would return to reality from the sea.

And his followers, the World Serpent, have never given up on finding a way to find Kevin.

According to the development of the original timeline, the main reason why the Gray Serpent cooperated with Cocolia was to obtain the authority to activate the Eye of the Abyss through her, and then to attract Kevin's attention by throwing the Gem of Desire into the Quantum Sea, so that he could get the coordinates of the real world and then successfully return to reality.

Although Kirataka also considered that if he rescued Seele now and stopped Cocolia's various conspiracies, Kevin might not be able to get out of this matter in the original way, but it seems that World Serpent is not the kind of organization that only has one way.

They have many means at their disposal. If they want to rescue Kevin, they can't just rely on cooperation with Cocolia. There must be other ways.

So, he didn't care too much about Kevin before, thinking that he would come out sooner or later.

However, he did not expect to run into Kevin here...

The quantum ocean is so vast, it really is fate.

Or is it because of some special reasons?

But which Kevin is this…?

If he hadn't met that scumbag woman Su, he probably wouldn't have had such doubts.

But no matter which Kevin it is, the pressure emanating from the giant snake is real.

This hideous giant snake... is probably one of Kevin's many incarnations.

As a product of the Chimera Project, that man's body already contained genes from various types of higher-level Honkai beasts, far surpassing those of ordinary fusion warriors. His existence could no longer be defined as a human being.

Just by looking at it from a distance, one could feel the powerful sense of oppression, which was far greater than anything Kirataka had ever seen before.

——This is even the power that has been weakened by spending fifteen hundred years in the quantum ocean.

"What...what is that?"

The two girls beside him obviously noticed the strange creature and asked with trembling voices.

They could feel that the giant snake was very powerful, much more powerful than the Quantum Shadow they had encountered before.

At this moment, a gray-green figure quickly appeared near them, and then came to Kirataka in a panic.

The person who came was Su, who had been admiring all this outside the illusion, but at this moment, she looked obviously a little embarrassed.

Her originally smooth long grey hair had become messy, and her facial expression had a hint of fear.

"It's rare to see you so frustrated."

Kirataka still had the leisure to joke.

"...Others are coming to attack us. Now we are only in the same boat. You better think of a solution!"

Su came to his side, hid behind the chairs of the three of them, and looked at the giant snake with caution.

It broke directly into this world bubble and began to wreak havoc. It was really unfriendly.

"Have you seen him before? The giant snake, I mean."

Kirataka asked curiously.

Although there must be another Kevin in Su's original world, it would be difficult for her to associate the Honkai beast in front of her, which has transformed into a giant snake, with Kevin.

Sure enough, Su quickly replied:

"No! But when I was wandering in the quantum sea, I could already feel His presence, just like... a poisonous snake lurking in a dark cave."

Kevin is so powerful that any living thing nearby can feel his pressure.

Then, the gray-haired woman quickly said:

"And my ability doesn't work very well on him! Alas, that's the downside of the Psychic Perception type... I have no way to deal with Honkai Beast or Quantum Shadow. So I can only come to you for help. If this continues, this world will be destroyed by him!"

She had already tried to use her own abilities to deal with the Honkai beast before coming here for help but with little success.

Therefore, she instinctively thought that it was because of the other party's identity as an Honkai beast that made her ability ineffective.

But in fact... it was just because Kevin's mental resistance was too strong that made him almost immune to her mental methods.

"Have you ever provoked him before?"

Kirataka asked.

Looking at the other party's aggressive approach, it doesn't seem like they have any grudges against each other.

"...Absolutely not! How dare I provoke such a thing!"

Su immediately answered in a precise tone.

If she were to become an enemy of this guy, she would probably have to die a thousand times.

"Dad..."

Feeling the trembling terrifying aura, the purple-haired girl beside him couldn't help but hide in his arms and tremble.

"…"

Kirataka stroked her little head, soothing her emotions, thought for a moment, and roared to them:

"Su, take Seele and Sirin and find a safe place to hide. This shouldn't be difficult for you."

"Then...what about you?"

Seele asked Kirataka with some concern.

"...I'll go try to negotiate with him first. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Kirataka stood up and relaxed his muscles.

In short, try to see if you can communicate with the other party first.

He is not Welt Yang, who would treat Kevin, whom he met for the first time, as an enemy and fight with him to the death.

As long as they can communicate, they can still avoid danger. After all, they don't have any reason to fight.

After all, Kevin is relatively rational when facing things other than the plan to defeat the Honkai, and he never acts rashly.

People like him, Seele, and even that Su, were not worthy of being his targets of attack.

For him, the only thing that cannot be tolerated in this world is the Herrscher who was born out of Honkai.

Herrscher...

"..."

Kirataka turned around and glanced at the purple-haired girl who was gradually moving away behind him, and his expression became a little strange.

 ——Okay, he probably knew why Kevin invaded this world.
