Kiana and the Captain's Bizarre Adventure

Chapter 376 Kiana: This time, the end has truly come (for real).

Once again, Blinger was cornered. Had Kiana not laid down numerous summons along his escape route, Blinger would have been captured long ago.

Unfortunately, these summoned creatures were intercepted by Victoria Housekeeping and other agents who were on good terms with Fahrenheit, which provided a lot of help to the Sixth Anti-Air Division and Zhe. At least they didn't have to chase and defeat these summoned creatures blocking their way at the same time.

Now, as Bollinger looked at the container in front of him, with members of the Anti-Air Section 6 on their way behind him, he touched the syringe in his hand and gave a helpless smile.

"Surrender, suspect Bollinger!"

"Hmph, you didn't think it was over just like that, did you!"

Turning around, Blinger suddenly plunged the potion in his hand into his arm. This was a potion Sarah had given him not long ago, a potion created by the Praise Society based on the data of the Hoshimi family's demon sword.

The substance previously injected into Kiana was created by the Praise Society based on the remaining data from that time. Its purpose was to allow Kiana to absorb the surrounding aetheric energy to the greatest extent possible, thereby evolving into a stronger being.

Despite Kiana's current appearance being identical to a human, her essence is practically indistinguishable from that of a demon. If it weren't for the nanobots formed from her biochips that could withstand this intense erosion, Blinger would have been killed instantly by Kiana, who indiscriminately treats friend and foe, the moment she transformed into that form.

Sarah originally planned to have Bollinger inject the same potion into Kiana, but Bollinger thought that one dose would be enough to hold out until he escaped. However, who could have imagined that the other side could call in so many reinforcements?

Fortunately, I didn't listen to Sarah and inject the remaining dose into Kiana. Now is not the time to worry about whether I can still maintain my human appearance.

Anyway, as long as the Praise Society's plan succeeds, all humans will eventually turn into demons. It doesn't matter whether they turn sooner or later. The most important thing now is to save your own life.

After injecting the drug, Bollinger threw the empty syringe on the ground, covered his left hand with the injected drug with his right hand, and sneered, "You really are persistent! It'll save me from settling scores with you one by one later. Let me show you the perfect human form after entering the Void Age! Master... please... mold me!"

After Bollinger shouted those words to the sky, the same strange phenomenon as Kiana's occurred again. A complex pattern suddenly appeared beneath Bollinger's feet, and the concentration of ether around him was increasing. As for Bollinger himself, he knelt on the ground with his head down, motionless, and then dense ether energy began to gather beneath his feet.

The next second, Blinger's body transformed into a giant hand, with an eyeball in the palm staring intently at the crowd wiping the field.

"Th-that is...!"

Looking at the familiar large hand on the screen, Zhe and Ling showed great surprise.

They recognized that hand; to be precise, they had seen it before.

On the very day that Void Zero erupted and the old capital fell, their teacher, Carlos Alna, was captured by the same hand.

The fact that we're seeing this here today means that the organization behind Bollinger may very well have clues about their teacher!

After staring at everyone for a while, the giant hand clenched its fist and slammed it down on them. Everyone quickly dodged the attack. Then, the giant hand twisted unnaturally a few times before turning its palm upwards, revealing Blinger, who had transformed into a monster.

Now his left hand has been completely transformed, and his right hand has turned into a long sword that emits golden light.

"Has Bollinger become a skeleton?"

Yuzhen stared blankly at the completely unrecognizable Blinger and asked, but unfortunately, no one else present could give an answer. On the contrary, due to the previous impact of Blinger's ether energy, Tetsuya, who was connected to Ies, was also hit by the energy and covered his head.

Even so, Bollinger was still no match for the members of the Anti-Air Section 6. Soon after, Tsukishiro Ryu seized an opening and sent him flying, crashing into a container. The huge impact caused the top container to fall between Bollinger and the others.

What rolled out of the container were canisters of high-concentration ether energy storage tanks. This was not surprising, since the void where Epsilon Port was located contained a large amount of ether crystals. This ether energy, obtained after collection and refinement, was everywhere in this void.

Bollinger grabbed the storage container that rolled down in front of him and began to absorb the etheric energy stored inside. After being replenished, Bollinger suddenly swung his left hand forward, and a phantom made of etheric energy instantly formed, piercing through the container in front of him and causing a violent explosion.

The powerful shockwave blew everyone away, and right behind them was the edge of the container.

Feeling a strong sense of weightlessness, Zhe subconsciously closed his eyes and screamed. But after a while, the weightlessness turned into a feeling of floating. After opening his eyes and re-establishing a visual connection with Ies, Zhe immediately saw Lina's face.

"I'm so glad you're alright."

Lina, who was holding Ies, said this, and then gently put Ies back on the ground. Lycaon also walked over from the side.

Lycaon bowed to Zhe and apologized, "I'm so sorry, it took some time to clear out those monsters."

"No, it's okay, it's good that we made it."

"Thank you for your understanding. Victoria Housekeeping is here to help again!"

Perhaps due to the previous explosion, the surrounding skeletons began to approach where everyone was. The giant hand that had appeared earlier then reappeared in front of them, twisting unnaturally before summoning another batch of skeletons.

That wasn't all; Kiana then summoned her knight summons.

Seeing this, everyone also assumed a fighting stance.

Lycahn said with a grave expression, "This is troublesome. It seems the number of enemies is increasing."

"Everyone, be prepared for the impact!"

Suddenly, Durandal's voice appeared in the channel. The next second, a lance descended from the sky, knocking away all the monsters around it and creating a huge cloud of smoke. Immediately afterward, a blue blade of light burst out from the smoke, and the next second, all the monsters that had been knocked away were shredded by the blade of light.

"This attack was carried out by the section chief!"

Cangjiao shouted happily, and Yuecheng Liu also showed a relieved expression as she adjusted her slipping glasses.

"Sorry everyone, I'm late."

Hoshimi Miyabi's voice came from the smoke, and when the smoke cleared, Hoshimi Miyabi and Durandal wearing the Moonlit Armor emerged from it.

"Are you all alright? We're not late, are we?"

“Of course, Miss Durandal,” Lycahn said elegantly, brushing the dust off his clothes. “Naturally, your arrival is perfectly timed.”

"That's good. So, can anyone tell me what's going on over there?"

Durandal naturally refers to the battlefield where Kiana and the captain are fighting fiercely, with bursts of flame occasionally shooting into the sky, and the Hyperion above launching various missiles from time to time.

"There is……"

Zhe then began to recount what had happened earlier...

"...In short, that's how it is. Miss Durandal, although I can't be sure about Kiana's condition, based on what Bollinger just said, I'm afraid Kiana is already..."

Zhe didn't say it explicitly, but anyone who witnessed Boling's transformation would never believe that Kiana could still be unharmed.

For a moment, the air was filled with silence, and Yuecheng Liu and the others did not dare to meet Yulandel's gaze.

"Simply put, the only option now is to kill Kiana, right?"

Hoshimi Miyabi gripped the knife tightly in her hand and spoke calmly. Her face was expressionless, and her eyes were firm, revealing no trace of her true thoughts.

However, based on her understanding of Hoshimi Miyabi, Tsukishiro Ryu could tell that Hoshimi Miyabi was also not at peace at this time. But she was a Void Hunter, one of the beacons guiding people toward tomorrow, and she could not make an unjust decision just because the victim was her comrade.

So even though it was very difficult, Hoshimi Miyabi had to force herself to make the right choice, even if it would cause the Hoshimi family and the Kaslana family to become enemies.

After Hoshimi Miyabi said those words, everyone instinctively focused their attention on Durandal, who was deep in thought.

As everyone knows, Durandal has always doted on his younger sister, Kiana, and he will generally grant Kiana's requests unless they violate principles or the law.

Given the current situation, it's inevitable that Kiana will be included in the list of targets, but everyone is afraid that Durandal might do something irrational given how much he dotes on Kiana.

After a long pause, Durandal, who had been lost in thought, took a deep breath and said, "Hoshimi is right. Although I still believe that Kiana can be saved, we can't risk waiting until we've dealt with Bollinger before we go find Kiana."

No one knows how much determination Durandal had in her voice when she said those words. Her voice was choked with emotion, yet her tone was so firm.

At this moment, everyone present was filled with respect for Durandal.

"Let's go, the captain can't hold out for long."

After saying that, Durandal rushed into the horde of skeletons. Watching Durandal's retreating figure, the others composed themselves and joined the pursuit.

Soon their path was blocked by containers. Just as everyone was discussing whether to take a detour and Durandal was about to punch all the containers, Kreta's voice came from behind the containers.

Then something lifted the container in front of them, and the people from Baizhi Heavy Industry appeared from behind it.

After a brief chat with the people from Baizhi Heavy Industry, everyone learned that Nicole had brought people to inform them that Zhe and the others needed help.

Considering that Zhe and his group had helped Bai Zhi Heavy Industry in the past, Koleda immediately decided to bring people to provide support, and now it seems that they have arrived at the perfect time.

Just as Kreta finished explaining what had happened, Grace had already fixed the broken elevator and escorted everyone to it. After that, the White Heavy Industries team began their rearguard work.

Thus, the members of the Sixth Division of the Sky, along with Zhe and Durandal, took the elevator to the vicinity of Bollinger, who was floating in mid-air absorbing a large amount of ether energy storage tanks floating above him.

The high concentration of etheric energy in the surrounding environment caused Yu-chan's body to begin to feel unwell. Everyone realized that they absolutely could not let Blinger absorb any more etheric energy, otherwise Yu-chan's body would not be able to withstand it.

After instructing the others to take good care of Yuuma, Durandal led Hoshimi Miya to rush towards Blinger.

First, Durandal aimed at the gasoline barrel that had been carried into the air, gripped his lance tightly, his muscles bulging, and then hurled it with force.

The next second, the lance that was thrown hit the gasoline drum, and the flames from the explosion traveled through the channel formed by the etheric energy to Boling.

Flames licked at Bollinger's body, and the unbearable heat caused Bollinger to scream in agony. The originally stable ether energy channel became unstable as a result, and a second explosion occurred.

Deprived of energy, Bollinger fell from the sky, and Durandal and Hoshimi Miyabi arrived at Bollinger's side at the same time.

"Damn it! If it weren't for that man and that airship, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state!"

"With Bollinger finished, I, in my capacity as Director General of the Police Department, hereby announce your arrest!"

"Hehehe! What a joke! I have now mastered the power of the demon sword. You want to arrest me? Ask the sword in my hand first!"

"Since you're so stubborn, I won't hesitate to use some methods!"

Durandal walked toward Blinger while flexing her wrists, but Hoshimi Miyabi stopped her.

"Wait! He is my target. Durandal, I hope you won't interfere. Don't worry, I will spare his life."

Yulandel looked calmly at Hoshimi Miyabi, who returned the same look.

Ultimately, Durandal gave the opportunity to Hoshimi Miyabi: "Alright, but please remember, you must keep them alive!"

"It's natural!"

“You two…!”

Bollinger's angry voice came from the side, followed by a burst of powerful ethereal energy from his body. The giant hand reappeared behind him, but this time it made a grasping motion towards the void.

Then a huge hilt appeared from the void, and with a twist of the large hand, a huge demonic sword was pulled out from the void.

The powerful etheric energy distorted the surrounding space. Bollinger drew his demon sword and aimed it at the two of them, then swung it with all his might, unleashing a strike that made the heavens and earth tremble.

However, when faced with this knife, Hoshimi Miya simply slowly drew her own knife and placed it in front of her. Then, she slowly closed her eyes, and her mind was filled with memories of Hoshimi Miya's childhood with her mother. Finally, the image that appeared was of her mother handing the knife to Hoshimi Miya in the fire.

Hoshimi Miyabi suddenly opened her eyes, placed the tailless sword beside her, pointed the tip of the sword at the ground, and then unleashed an attack infused with all of Hoshimi Miyabi's power.

Hoshimi Miyabi unleashed two strikes. The first strike neutralized Blinger's attack and destroyed the demon sword in his hand. The second strike was aimed at Blinger himself, and the resulting blade wave not only cut Blinger in half at the waist, but also continued its trajectory towards the edge of the void, ultimately cleaving the void open with a single strike.

Zhu Yuan, who was maintaining order outside, looked at the slowly healing crack in the hole and smiled helplessly. The members of the criminal investigation special task force behind her, who were still directing the operation, also stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction of the hole because of this commotion.

Inside the cave, Blinger, barely clinging to life, stood before the crowd that had come to punish him.

When questioned by the crowd, Bollinger said nothing, which enraged Durandal to the point that he almost lost his mind and shot Bollinger dead on the spot.

Just as everyone was struggling to get more information out of Bringer, something strange happened on Kiana's side.

A huge cross pattern unfolded in the sky inside the cavity, centered on that spot, and then H.D.D began to frantically sound alarms.

"The ether concentration around us is rising rapidly, this, this is...!"

Nicole, clutching her head in anguish, asked, "What happened to the rope maker?"

Zhe's incredulous voice came from Ies's body.

"...The void is expanding! And at this rate, it won't be long before it swallows Upps Harbor and expands into New Ellie City!"

"what?!"
