Chapter 122: Fu Hua and Fenghuang Down
After the blue light flashed, Kirataka was still standing in front of him unharmed, and the electric currents that had previously attacked him were all controlled and guided by him in his hands, condensing into a blue ball.
The combination of gravity control and high-voltage electric current attack was ingenious, but unfortunately, the target of these electric current attacks was him who could manipulate electromagnetism.
To some extent, it feels a bit like "showing off one's skill in front of an expert."
Well, if you really count it, the real "Expert" should be Mei.
Kirataka casually threw the blue ball towards Watt.
Give back what you have given to others--
"…What!"
Watt's eyes widened, and a barrier constructed with Honkai energy immediately appeared in front of him, blocking the huge electric current attack.
After he intercepted Kirataka's counterattack, all the poisonous spider mechas that had surrounded Kirataka fell to the ground motionless and lost control.
"So it's the power of controlling electromagnetics... Hmph, I seem to remember it, Nagazora City, the Third Herrscher..."
Watt looked at Kirataka and said thoughtfully.
Although the electric current attack was ineffective, his gravity still tightly controlled the opponent, which made him fearless.
"Not bad, a nice toy. According to Cocolia's order, I will stay in this city for a while. It's so boring here, it would be best if someone came to have fun with me."
"…"
For some reason, Kirataka felt that what Watt meant by "having fun" was not just simply torturing the opponent, but there was some other meaning in it.
Sure enough, the next second, Watt licked his lips and said loudly:
"Although women are the best at playing, men can also play."
"…"
Kirataka felt a chill.
This is a bit perverted, especially with Joyce's ghost face...
He thought for a moment and asked in a deep voice:
"What are you going to do in this city?"
"If you want to know, come and defeat me!"
Watt squeezed hard, and the black and red light ball around him expanded several times.
In order to avoid any further complications, he planned to first destroy Kirataka's ability to move and resist, and then interrogate and play with him.
Feeling the gravity multiplier on his body increasing rapidly, Kirataka's mind moved, and he started the [Infinity].
It doesn't take long, just a moment.
No more, no less, exactly one second.
An invisible barrier wrapped around his body, protecting him from all attacks.
It was this magical protection that was deployed for a moment that dissipated the influence of Watt's gravity and allowed him to regain his freedom.
Immediately afterward, Kirataka withdrew the technique, and his body disappeared from the spot.
Based on the experience of dealing with Watt last time, he relied on high-speed movement to avoid Watt's gravity capture.
——The time to maintain the [Infinity] is extremely precious, and he doesn't want to waste too much of it on this Watt. It is enough to use it to release his control over himself.
This Watt is indeed much more cautious than Watt-1. He is not the kind of fool who would casually reveal important secrets.
If we were to defeat him head-on and then seek answers through interrogation, it would probably take a long time and was not a reliable option.
So, it would be better to just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. This was also his original plan.
To be precise, someone will help him find out the location of the Serenity Gem.
——The sound of the collision between gravity and electric current just now was quite loud. I'm sure someone must have noticed the abnormality here.
Judging from the time, she should be here soon.
Sure enough, the next moment, a few scarlet feathers floated past him and Watt.
Watt's movements suddenly stopped, and the black and red balls floating around him all disappeared.
His eyes became quite dull as if he was trapped in some kind of dream.
Kirataka seemed to have been affected in the same way. He no longer moved at high speed but stood still.
"Sigh…"
A gray-haired figure slowly came between them.
The person who came was Fu Hua.
There were a lot of feathers floating around her. Obviously, they were her work.
"I didn't expect such an unexpected situation to happen..."
Fu Hua sighed and looked at the two people who were controlled by her Fenghuang Down.
The power of the Divine Key of Sentience is extremely domineering. It is only a simple matter to make these two people temporarily trapped in the environment she has created.
"So, let me see what happened..."
——She originally used a beauty trick to get a set of clothes and planned to take the elevator up to look for Dr. Maki, but when the elevator was halfway there, there was a sudden power outage.
She realized that this was an attack from the enemy, but because the communication device malfunctioned under the influence of the strong electromagnetic pulse and could not be used temporarily, she could only break through the ceiling of the elevator with her bare hands, climb up the shaft to the 30th floor with her hands and feet, and find Dr. Maki's room.
However, the place had long been deserted, leaving only a big hole leading to the outside world and broken glass all over the ground.
After returning downstairs to confirm that Kiana was still safe, Fu Hua began to look around for suspicious targets.
The battle between Kirataka and Watt caused quite a stir, so she quickly noticed this direction.
In short, although she arrived late, she still found this place based on the Honkai energy leaked during the battle and finally arrived at the rooftop.
Fu Hua looked at the two people fighting and thought to herself:
"These two people are fighting here. One of them must be someone who opposes Anti-Entropy, but who is the other side?"
In addition to Schicksal and Anti-Entropy, are there any third-party forces involved in this incident?
Is he or the forces behind him also coming for the Serenity Gem?
'...I always feel that there are many doubts behind this mission. Does Otto know about this? Or...is this beyond his expectations?'
Fu Hua looked up again and saw the unconscious Dr. Maki was also on the rooftop. She had indeed found the right person.
She thought for a moment, then stretched out her hand, and the scarlet feathers in her hand glowed.
Since there are so many questions she wants to understand, let the two people in front of her tell her the answers themselves.
Relying on Fenghuang Down's power, Fu Hua could make them tell her anything she wanted to know.
This is the convenience of possessing the Divine Key that can influence other people's minds.
The most urgent task is to find the Serenity Gem first.
So, the first question is -
"Tell me, where is the Serenity Gem stored?"
