Shiyu Kira suddenly felt a little envious of Anna.
Celine hid behind Eden, looking like she had succeeded in her evil scheme.
Eden's gaze lingered on Anna and Qiu Bi for a moment before turning to the center of the theater.
A crystal floated in mid-air, emitting a hazy and eerie light, as if it possessed a captivating magic that made people unable to resist becoming mesmerized by it.
Eden quickly came to his senses and recognized what this captivating magic was all about.
If nothing unexpected happens, it will surely be the manifestation of the power of the "Lawgier of Knowledge".
"Is that the true form of the 'Herrscher of Domination'?"
Eden murmured softly, then instructed, "Sirin, thank you for your help."
"Yes, yes! Let Sirin handle all of this!"
Celine nocked an arrow, drew the bowstring, aimed at the crystal suspended in mid-air, and fired a jet-black arrow in the next second.
The arrow tore through the air and shot suddenly toward the crystal suspended in mid-air.
The puppets leaped up in unison, trying to block the arrow, but to no avail; instead, their bodies were easily pierced by the arrow.
"Hmph~ Sirin's arrows are incredibly powerful!"
Xilin proudly raised her chin, looking like she wanted to say, "Come and praise me!"
However, just as the arrow was about to strike the crystal suspended in mid-air, an unexpected event occurred.
A massive arm descended from the sky, snatching the suspended crystal before the black arrow could strike, causing Sirin's black arrow to miss its target.
"Huh? This is..."
Xilin subconsciously looked at the main body of the giant arm, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
It was a larger, yet somewhat bloated, doll.
Four arms float on the shoulders of the doll, making it look quite muscular.
Sirin's gaze quickly locked onto the giant doll's chest, staring intently at the five crystals that shimmered faintly there.
—The core of the Lawyer.
To be precise, apart from the crystal in the very center which is the true Herrscher core, the other four crystals are "power gems" constructed based on the Herrscher powers previously dominated, through the Herrscher powers of the "Herrscher of Reason".
As long as these four gems are not broken or lost, the "Herrscher of Domination" can continue to use the Herrscher powers corresponding to the gems, even if the Herrscher of the dominated power has died.
The crystal that was previously suspended in mid-air was the Herrscher core located in the center of the giant doll's chest.
"Composed of countless losers, the strongest individuals, and the unification of all Herrscher powers—we are the strongest beings, and the ultimate weapon, the 'Mob'."
Countless different voices overlapped and echoed, reverberating in the empty theater.
One by one, the puppets fell from the sky, surrounding the crowd.
Without pausing to admire Anna any longer, Shigure Kira immediately released the giant scissors in her hand, shattering them into musical note blades and six musical notes.
"Aren't we going to kill all these puppets? There are just too many of them!"
"These puppets are weak; their only strength is their sheer number. Moreover... the puppets' true forms have already appeared. Once we deal with the so-called 'rabble,' these puppets will naturally crumble on their own."
Eden, supporting the unconscious Maria, silently created a gravity field as the sound faded, enveloping all the dolls.
Chapter 368 Anna Fights a Motley Crew Alone
Sirin wields the "Bow of Light," unleashing a barrage of black arrows that kill one puppet after another.
Unfortunately, the number of puppets seemed endless. Whenever a puppet was killed by Shigure Kira and Sirin, more puppets would fill the gap.
"Cirin, unleash a few more wide-range attacks!"
"Eh? Kira-mama, that might accidentally hurt you!"
"It's alright! I'm not so bad that I can't dodge those arrows!"
Shigure Kira dodged and weaved, dodging the attacks launched by the puppets while also using musical notes to kill them.
Celine bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, then changed the state of the arrow, causing it to explode in the air and split into dozens of tiny, pitch-black arrows.
These black arrows, though unable to kill the puppets in one shot, were enough to cause them a lot of trouble.
There were so many puppets that it was almost like "puppets crowding each other," making it difficult to dodge. They could only watch helplessly as the arrows landed on their bodies and corroded the wounded areas.
Anna watched all this silently, offering no assistance.
Since the two Herrscher cores within her body merged, her personality has undergone a complete transformation.
It's not that the Herrscher personality completely controls the body; rather, it's more like Anna's original personality merged with the Herrscher personality, forming a completely new personality.
"call……"
Anna seemed to be thinking about something when she suddenly let out a long sigh.
The next second, a biting frost appeared out of thin air, condensing into black ice cones that rained down on the huddled dolls.
The pitch-black ice spikes look no different from ordinary ice spikes, but they are much heavier. Each ice spike is like a cannonball, and it will explode violently when it hits the ground or the doll's body. The jet-black ice shards will also cause secondary damage.
This is the initial application of the "Herrscher of Meteoric Ice" power, imbuing the ice with terrifying gravity, which can both enhance the power of the ice spikes and apply control effects.
The wide-range black ice attack instantly cleared out a large area of dolls, leaving no dolls around Shigure Kira, Sirin, and Eden.
Anna's actions not only attracted the attention of Shigure Kira and others, but also drew the attention of the mob.
At this point, the mob had confirmed one thing—
Although it is unknown how Anna acquired this power, if Anna is not dealt with first, then it is impossible to wear down Shigure Kira and the others with sheer numbers.
Anna walked on air, carrying Qiu Bi, and landed in front of Xilin and Eden.
As for Walter...
Frost condensed into a sharp claw, gripping Walter and floating behind the two.
"Please take care of Qiu Bi for now."
"Yes! Don't worry, Anna's mom, defeat that big guy! Sirin will protect Daddy!"
Sirin wields the "Bow of Light" to cheer Anna on.
Anna was taken aback by Celine's words, then a beautiful blush rose on her cheeks: "Yes, I will."
Seeing that Anna did not object to her calling her that, Celine was certain that Anna would become her new mother, and her mood immediately became very happy.
On the other hand, Qiu Bi felt that he had completely lost his authority as a "father".
After all, it's hard for anyone to accept being carried in a princess carry by another woman in front of their daughter.
"Qiu Bi, wait here for me for a moment, I'll take care of it soon."
Anna gently stroked Qiu Bi's cheek, then drifted away.
Before leaving, she made sure to toss Walter onto the ground.
Walter stood up without changing his expression, lightly brushing the dust off his body, and asked, "Mr. Qiu Bi, why has Anna's personality changed so much?"
"...Don't ask me, I'm not too sure either, but it's probably because the Herrscher consciousness merged with the original personality?"
Qiu Bi couldn't say for sure about Anna's situation, and could only offer a slightly more convincing guess.
Walter nodded without saying anything more.
Sirin put away the "Bow of Light," skipped over to Qiu Bi, and said with a smile as if to ask for praise, "Dad, isn't Sirin's plan great?"
"Your clever ideas always surprise me."
Qiu Bi reached out and flicked Xilin on the forehead, making Xilin look aggrieved.
Then, Qiu Bi took the opportunity to ruffle Xilin's hair, turning it into a messy tangled mess, before finally letting Xilin go, satisfied.
This made Xilin feel even more aggrieved, as if she would burst into tears at any moment.
"It's time for this farce to end. Why did it have to happen to start when Tracy and Vivian are having their full moon celebrations..."
Throughout the entire process, Qiu Bi never took the "ruler of domination" to heart.
If it weren't for the "Herrscher of Domination" choosing to cause trouble today, he wouldn't have bothered with the "Herrscher of Domination" at all.
In fact, if the "Herrscher of Domination" hadn't chosen to attack Maria and Kiana, Qiu Bi wouldn't have personally accompanied them to fight the "Herrscher of Domination."
No matter how bad things get, Angeline is enough to quell everything.
The "Herrscher of Domination" differs from other Herrschers in that the strength of the Herrscher is entirely derived from the Herrscher who is subject to their domination.
If the Herrschers whose powers are controlled by it are Wendy, Nina, and Anna in her "Herrscher of Meteorite" state, they might actually be able to try to control some of Angelin's powers and thus contend with Angelin.
In contrast, the four Herrscher powers actually controlled by the "Herrscher of Domination" are Anna's "Herrscher of Ice", Aurora's "Herrscher of Wind", Agatha's "Herrscher of Flame" and Sirin's "Herrscher of Void".
Of these four Herrscher powers, only the powers of the "Herrscher of Ice" and the "Herrscher of Void" are slightly stronger, while the powers of the other two Herrscher powers are not very strong.
—Aurora and Agatha have always been poor performers.
"Hmph! That's right! Preventing Sirin from continuing to be so close to Vivian and Tracy, the 'Herrscher of Domination' is guilty of a heinous crime!"
Xilin nodded in agreement, showing no trace of her earlier tearful expression.
Qiu Bi glanced at Xilin without showing any emotion, then took Maria from Eden and carried the unconscious Maria on his back again.
At the same time, Anna walked on air and slowly walked to the front of the rabble.
The pitch-black, icy rain continued to fall, covering all the puppets and preventing them from attacking Qiu Bi and the others.
But for Anna, this was just a trivial matter.
The mob kept a close eye on Anna, keenly sensing what kind of threat she posed.
Driven by this threat, it chose to go all out.
Boom!
The thunderous sound reverberated throughout the entire Dominion Theater, immediately startling Cecilia and her entourage as they slowly approached the theater, as well as the heroes who were having a meal together.
Then, under their watchful eyes, the massive theater in the very center suddenly collapsed, with rubble swirling and flying everywhere. But in the next second, as if drawn by some force, it coalesced into a huge stone pillar, which silently floated in the air.
Oh no, I might be in serious trouble.
