You wouldn't want them to be bullied, would you?

"I see……"

"As long as a Herrscher uses their Herrscher powers to attack you, you can forcibly seize their Herrscher powers!"

"Those lifeless dolls weren't actually there to stop Aurora and the others from escaping, but rather to guide them in their attack!"

"As long as the attack affects the remains of the doll, you can seize Aurora and Agatha's Herrscher powers!"

Ignoring the Honkai energy erosion that had spread to her neck, Maria gazed at the gradually shattering and dissipating phantom of Sirin in the distance, her brows furrowed with hesitation, as if she were struggling with something.

Chapter 353 The Power Beyond S-Class Valkyrie

The dolls' strange laughter irritated Maria.

"The situation is now settled; you are destined to be trapped here forever!"

"Ha... Absolutely impossible."

Maria gave a casual reply, it was unclear whether she was responding to the dolls or making a final decision.

As the sound faded, a terrifying burst of Honkai energy erupted from Maria's body.

Honkai energy eroded Maria's body like a runaway horse, spreading rampantly. In the blink of an eye, it had already reached Maria's neck and then climbed up her face.

Scattered, crimson lines crawled wildly across Maria's left cheek, eventually converging on her left eye, staining it a shade of purple.

In addition, Maria's long hair moved without wind, and the ends seemed to have lost all color, making it look as if the long hair was directly connected to the void.

Holy and eerie.

Two seemingly conflicting qualities come together in Maria's body, creating a powerful visual impact.

"call……"

"Aurora, Agatha, An, Kiana, you really are troublesome nieces."

Maria suddenly smiled, as if she had thought of something.

The nearby dolls sensed something was wrong and immediately launched an attack on Maria.

Maria simply nudged the tips of the two golden spears together, instantly annihilating all the attacks.

"This, how is this possible..."

The dolls were incredulous.

Maria chuckled softly, without offering any further explanation.

The golden spear in his right hand spun around once, and then he suddenly threw it out in the next second.

The golden spear, seemingly transformed into golden lightning or a golden dragon, crashed into the barrier that dominated the theater, following the trajectory of the flaming arrow.

Before the golden spear, the barriers that dominated the theater were as fragile as paper, easily pierced by the golden spear.

After this attack, the golden spear could not withstand Maria's power and shattered instantly.

Staring at the golden spear that seemed to pierce through the world, Aurora, Agatha, An, and Kiana were lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.

The next moment, Maria’s angry rebuke rang in the ears of the four.

"What are you standing there for?! Get out of the Domination Theater right now!?"

"But... Aunt Maria, you haven't..."

"Don't worry about me! I have my own way. You all get out of the Domination Theater now!"

Upon hearing this, the four girls nodded in unison and then rushed toward the hole pierced by the golden spear.

However, in the next second, two golden birdcages instantly materialized, enveloping Aurora and Agatha respectively.

"What—Sister Aurora, Sister Agatha!"

Kiana and Anne were suddenly startled and turned around to attack the birdcage that imprisoned Aurora and Agatha.

Clang!

Apricot's "timely plan" could not cut the birdcage; it could only produce tiny sparks.

In contrast, Kiana's "Saintess Power" can shatter the birdcage, but the speed is very slow, even slower than the birdcage's self-healing speed.

Aurora and Agatha stood inside the birdcage, their expressions quite complicated.

"Aurora, you were just talking about me—aren't you just as embarrassed now?"

"Tsk... Now is not the time to talk about this kind of thing."

Aurora pursed her lips, then urged, "Xing, you should take Kiana and leave quickly. Dad and Mom need to know about the Herrscher of Domination."

"But, but..."

"Kiana, there are no 'buts'. As long as Sirin and Daddy are safe, we can be resurrected."

Kiana bit her lip, hesitating.

Xing took a deep breath, then decisively pulled Kiana away.

"Heh... Aurora, Agatha, have you forgotten that you have an aunt like me?"

Maria's voice rang out softly.

Before she finished speaking, Maria suddenly appeared beside the four girls, moving so fast that even the dolls didn't have time to react.

The four girls were somewhat stunned as they stared at Maria, who possessed both a holy and eerie appearance.

Maria flicked each of the four girls on the forehead, then gently scolded them, "Don't take on everything just because you're a Herrscher. It's okay to rely on your elders a little."

"Aunt Maria..."

Aurora and Agatha murmured in a daze.

Maria chuckled helplessly, then swung her last remaining golden spear, easily shattering the birdcage that imprisoned Aurora and Agatha.

Although both are golden spears constructed by Kiana, the golden spears only reach their full potential when in Maria's hands.

With Kiana's current strength, she seems to be able to protect herself, but she cannot fully unleash the power of the golden spear and the "Saintess Power".

After shattering two birdcages, the last golden spear finally met its end, breaking into countless tiny sparks.

"Aunt Maria, I'll make you a new spear right now..."

Kiana hurriedly began to condense her spear, only to be rudely interrupted by Maria.

"Kiana, the Theater of Domination is under repair, and the puppets have caught up with us."

Maria didn't give the four girls a chance to answer. First, she grabbed Kiana and Anne by the collar and roughly threw them into the hole pierced by the golden spear. Then, she did the same to Aurora and Agatha.

Watching the Domination Theater heal itself at a visible speed, Maria suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at the pursuing puppets.

"I've learned a little bit of hand-to-hand combat, though it's not as good as spear or lance, but in this stance, it should be more than enough to take you down..."

"Let me properly and truly experience the power beyond that of an S-class Valkyrie!"

"Even if this power is not yet perfect, it is enough to prove that I have not gone astray in my efforts."

Maria muttered to herself, her body suddenly swayed, and she vanished from her spot in an instant.

When she reappeared, Maria had already rushed into the dolls and instantly tore seven or eight of them to pieces.

Even though the dolls now possess three Herrscher powers, they still find it difficult to contend with Maria in this form.

It wasn't that the difference in strength was huge, but rather that Maria's speed at full power was too fast, so much so that before the puppets could even catch a glimpse of her, their bodies had already been shattered by Maria's fists.

However, Maria's power did not come without a price.

As time goes on, her Honkai energy will erode her more and more severely, eventually turning her into a puppet of "Honkai".

"Damn it!"

"I can't see this human's movements at all!"

"So……"

"We have no choice but to use that Herrscher power!"

The dolls made no attempt to hide their secrets, openly plotting their next move, allowing Maria to learn of their methods.

As for the true nature of "that Herrscher power," it is of course the second Herrscher power that the puppets possessed when they descended—

The power of the "Lawgier of Knowledge"!

Chapter 354 "The Lawyer's Powers of the Lawyer of Knowledge"

The usual method of the "Lawgier of Knowledge" is "meme pollution," the most common form of which is to use text as a medium to influence the thoughts of others, or even control their behavior.

If the "law-holder of knowledge" so desires, they can completely use themselves as a vessel to corrupt all living beings that see them.

At this moment, when the dolls used the power of the "Herrscher of Knowledge," Mary Adam realized that this matter was particularly serious.

The dolls are not simply "Herrschers of Domination," but rather unprecedented dual-core Herrschers, possessing both the "Herrscher of Domination" and the "Herrscher of Knowledge"!

"Damn it! We can't let them control us! At least... at least we have to tell Cecilia and the others about this!"

Maria gritted her teeth, trying her best to resist the "meme pollution" released by the dolls.

Unfortunately, the dolls clustered together, surrounding Maria, and each doll was essentially a source of "meme contamination." With repeated accumulation, even Maria found it difficult to resist.

To avoid succumbing to the spell, Maria bit her tongue without hesitation, using the excruciating pain to resist the "meme contamination" of the "Herrscher of Knowledge".

Even so, Maria could not hold on for long.

"We can't stay in this stalemate; we must contact Cecilia and the others as soon as possible..."

Maria stopped attacking the dolls and instead typed a message on the communication device, simultaneously shaking off the dolls' entanglement and instantly rushing to the boundary barrier of the theater.

The huge hole that had been pierced by the golden spear had now healed to the size of a fist.

Maria throws the communication device, causing it to instantly burst out of the Domination Theater.

Seeing that the dolls did not intervene, she breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the dolls' next words made her expression change drastically.

"Hee hee hee……"

"You should be very grateful now, right?"
