"Teacher Jizi's whereabouts are still unknown. He... The Herrscher of Flame appeared in Sky City. I must go find him and find out where the teacher is. There are still many things I need to do, and so many people are waiting for me to save..." Kiana didn't know how she felt about Su Jue. During the time in Sky City, he brought her the only light. She thought it was gratitude to the one who saved her, but after the Sky Meteor, during the time she was recuperating after being eroded, she finally had time to think and recall. Maybe I just regarded him as a substitute for Teacher Ji Zi, imagining that the teacher was still by my side to numb myself from the mistakes I made. She used this reason countless times to convince herself not to think about him and not to think about deeper emotions. But every time when I couldn't sleep because of the pain late at night, I would think of every moment I had with Su Jue. I remember how he lit the only light for me in the lonely dark night, guiding me on the way home. I remember talking to each other about our lives and pasts under the infinite starry sky. Thinking of the flames that burned the entire sky, I said my final goodbye to him. Whenever I think of these, my heart becomes peaceful and the erosion of collapse doesn’t hurt so much. Is it really just a replacement?
She no longer dared to answer herself like that. A friend, a partner, a special person. This is not friendship or love, if I really need to describe it, it's more like... family. Unconditional belief, unconditional care, and the deepest redemption. He can see all of Kiana's sorrow, but he won't persuade or comfort her like others, but bear it with her. He himself is also stuck in the quagmire, but he is willing to entrust all his hopes to others. It was like two victims trapped in a snowstorm, encouraging each other to live. She saw in Su Jue both the family love of Siegfried and the teacher-student love of Ji Zi, and that was why Kiana felt confused about her emotions. No matter what, now that I have gotten out of the most difficult situation, it is time to help Su Jue. "During this period of escape, I once fell into despair. Whenever night fell, countless voices would quarrel in my mind. I thought about giving up and even suicide. He saved me, and I don't want to hide it from you..." Just when Kiana was about to say Su Jue's name, Mei spoke first. "It's Su Jue, right?" "How...did you know that?" The leader of Qianjue's organization and the person who sent the two out of Sky City. During this time, Mei has learned a lot of information about him through Qianjue's forum. Although the organization clearly stipulates that Qian Jue's information cannot be disclosed, seeing Kiana's entanglement, Meiyi can't keep it secret because she has received news that Su Jue has been used as an experimental subject by Tianming. "he……" Before Meiyi could finish her words, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open. Jian Yun looked at Meiyi with a cold face and said coldly: "Let's go, I will send someone to take you to Anti-Entropy." Seeing Jian Yun's performance, Mei's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Kindred was more troublesome than she had imagined. She immediately gave up the idea of leaking the secret to Kiana. Only Kiana, who was completely confused, looked at Mei, and then recalled Su Jue's appearance. She always felt that there was some relationship between the two that she didn't understand. Chapter 161 Kiana and Secretary Liuli "Mei, didn't you say that we were just taken in by kind people?" The helicopter parked at the airport raised a strong wind, making Kiana's voice unclear.
The wide helipad, the strict guard robots, the armed helicopters that could only be manufactured by Anti-Entropy. If she had not just left the room, she would have thought that she had arrived at the Anti-Entropy headquarters. Not to mention Kiana, Mei herself was completely confused. Just over ten days ago, when she and Kiana escaped from Sky City, this place was just an ordinary industrial area. Knowing that Kindred is basically an organization formed by people rescued by Kiana who gathered together on their own, Mei was shocked by the individual combat power of the organization members, but technological strength requires sufficient foundation. It can be seen from that dedicated mobile phone that Qian Jue is far behind the three major organizations in terms of software and hardware. However, after just a few days, the factory area that was originally only able to produce some two-dimensional peripherals has become a military base. "I...I don't know either." She had been taking care of Kiana all the time and had never left the living area. Naturally, she had not noticed that in the past few days, there were space passages everywhere and a large number of mechas and semi-finished materials were being transported into the factory. Although many of Cocolia's experiments ended in failure, her scientific research capabilities cannot be ignored. As the leader of the Anti-Entropy Innovation Faction, he has mastered a large number of mecha design technologies. And because he has cooperated with the World Serpent many times to steal the new technology of Anti-Entropy, even the mecha developed by Tesla himself has been killed. After becoming a puppet, these technologies were naturally absorbed by Su Jue, and because of the puppet's amplification, they were optimized a lot on the original basis. In addition, she herself also has many industrial groups, including the Mikoyan Design Bureau, which has an important position in Anti-Entropy. The mecha troops she stored in these places were also transferred here by Su Jue. Therefore, the many mechas that have appeared at present are actually just Cocolia’s inventory, and its own production line is still under construction. Even so, there has been a leap forward in low-end combat power, and we no longer have to rely on puppets to personally participate in battles as before. Among the puppets absorbed before, there is Colin's top programming technology, the excess computing power provided by the little humanoid girl, and some former industrial designers and other talents, which enhance each other and make progress together. And the biggest advantage is that we share the same brain, so there is no need to worry about design errors or conflicts, and the work efficiency is incredibly high. Therefore, it was normal for Mei to have this feeling of being in another world, and even Su Jue himself was a little surprised. "Okay, Miss Liuli will escort you throughout the rest of the trip. My mission has been completed. I wish you a safe journey." After sending Mei and the other person to the helicopter, Jian Yun said calmly. She had no special thoughts about the two strangers, so she might as well design another heart-wrenching plot to make the players of her game "Original Demon" break through their defenses. "Thank you, Miss Jian Yun." During the days of hiding, Jian Yun did not appear many times, but she brought key supplies every time. Whether it was the special medicine for treating Kiana, daily necessities, or agreeing to their request to go to Anti-Entropy, she came just in time. "No need to thank me. It's just my master's mission." Waving his hand casually, Jian Yun signaled the two to get on the helicopter quickly. “……”What a strange person. Swallowing more words, Mei looked at Kiana beside her, only to find that her eyes were fixed on the helicopter. …… "Hey, good morning, Miss Kiana." With her white hair floating in the airflow of the helicopter, [Kiana] folded her arms across her chest, leaning against the side string of the helicopter door. The aggressive gaze fell on Kiana and he gave a meaningful smile. "Who are you?" For some reason, Kiana saw her own shadow in the other person. Although the figure, age and movements were completely different, it still gave people a strong sense of déjà vu. Sensitive to the emotional changes of the people around her, Mei looked at Kiana with some confusion, then frowned and looked at [Kiana]. "Excuse me, who are you?" "You can call me... Liuli. I'll be your secretary this time." Retracting her gaze, [Kiana] jumped off the helicopter and handed them two bracelets.
Kiana didn't answer it, but stared at the strange woman with vigilance. Light blue eyes, long white hair, and the familiar movements he occasionally makes, he is just like another self. She suddenly recalled the nightmare she had two days ago. Although she couldn't remember the appearance of the woman who left with Su Jue in the scene, her shadows gradually overlapped after this person appeared. After going through so many things, Kiana was very sensitive to other people's gazes. Just now when she looked into the eyes of this woman, although the hostility in her eyes was well hidden, she still caught it. Sensing Xiao Qi's vigilance, [Kiana] deliberately moved closer to her, breaking through the safe distance of ordinary people's psychological defense. But before the other party got angry, she took the initiative to leave and came to Mei. After all this back and forth, Kiana, who was already feeling uneasy, looked as if she was being teased, and her face looked a little ugly. "Ms. Liuli, please send the guests to the destination as soon as possible and don't delay the trip." Jian Yun, who was about to leave, suddenly spoke up, interrupting [Kiana]'s prank. "Tsk..." Kiana made an unhappy sound, put away her cynical look, and introduced the two people seriously. "This is a Honkai Suppression Bracelet. It can suppress the Herrscher energy in both of you so that you won't be located by Destiny. And..." Turning to Kiana with a gentle smile, [Kiana] said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Miss Kiana, I'm just curious about the Herrscher of the Void. Miss Mei from our organization paid such a high price to save you from Destiny, so I think there must be something special about you." "Ah?" Raiden Meiren was a little confused. How could she not know what price she had paid? And shouldn't her identity be kept secret? She didn't realize yet that she had become a victim of Su Jue's slander. Kiana didn't say anything until she got on the plane. Then she said to Mei in a self-blaming tone: "I knew you weren't taken in by a kind person, Mei. I'm the one who's holding you back." She didn't know what organization Mei joined, but just looking at the technological equipment, she knew the cost must be quite high. "..." Mei wanted to explain, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say them. She glared at Qiana angrily and pretended to be unhappy and said, "Why are you so distant? Am I not your best friend?" "Sorry……" Looking at Kiana in this state, Mei seemed really angry and rubbed her hair hard. "Don't apologize to me, idiot!" Stupid Kiana, I don't want to tell you the truth. Mei suddenly understood why Kindred's people never told their queen about their contributions. Perhaps it was to prevent her from worrying so much. Chapter 162 Transition Chapter "Su Jue, if you care about her, why don't you just control Miss Liuli?" Jian Yun sighed as she watched the helicopter fly away. Just now, she was about to leave, but Su Jue forcibly possessed her and came back to help Qiana out. "Are you the legendary tsundere?" "Ahem, as an employee you should behave like an employee and stop asking about my affairs." "Tsk, that's not how you treated me back then." She complained somewhat resentfully. Obviously, she was also a sweet girl back then, but after being separated from the puppet, she became a complete tool. What a heartless man. "...The plot of the next game will also be left to you." Hearing Su Jue's words, Jian Yun immediately smiled happily. What's the point of talking about feelings? Now I just want to be a torturer. …… "The harbor has been cleared and maintenance will begin soon."
The unknown coastline in the Far East is a temporary base set up by Anti-Entropy. The Hyperion, which was originally prepared to welcome Mei and her friends, was attacked by Su Jue and was severely damaged. It had to change its plan and return to the port for maintenance. Theresa and her team who were in charge of Haiyuan City finally met up with Tesla who was stationed there. Although things on both sides had ended, the result of fighting on two fronts could hardly be called a success. Now that Skydome City has been destroyed and the World Serpent has not been stopped, the only good news is probably that Kiana will soon return to the team. "Mei and the others are on their way here. Bronya, I'll have to trouble you to go and greet them later." Theresa, who had just returned to the base, had not had time to rest when she received a notice for a meeting. "Dr. Tesla seems to have found some clues and I need to confirm them." "Yeah." After this attack, Bronya, who had become cheerful because of finding Seele, became silent again. Cocolia colluded with other organizations and defected, and Rosalia was also taken away by the Herrscher. Both events were a big blow to her. Fortunately, after the trip to Haiyuan City, she has grown a lot, and with Xier by her side, she is not trapped in the dilemma of self-entanglement like before. "Let's go, sister." Pulling her sister's sleeve, Xier looked a little worried. As soon as Theresa pushed open the door of the conference room, she saw Tesla and Einstein discussing something. She was wondering about the content of their conversation when she discovered a comic book on the desk. "Dr. Einstein, what is this?" Theresa put down the documents in her hand and looked at the comics with some curiosity. She didn't think these two scientists would be interested in reading comics. "Hey, Theresa is here. Take a look at this comic first, and I'll ask you something later." Tesla, who was outspoken, handed the comic directly to Theresa, and then continued with Einstein: "I've already said that Raiden Mei must have retained some information. Although I don't know what it is, the matter of Sky City is definitely not as simple as she said." Mei? A series of question marks emerged in Theresa's mind. She didn't know what these things had to do with Mei, but since Tesla didn't deliberately avoid her, it meant that it was not a big problem. She opened the comic, but the title on page 1 gave her a fright. "What is this?" At first glance, she thought she had seen it wrong. Then Theresa turned to the work note on the back and found that it was actually a published comic book. Suppressing her shock, Theresa continued to read, the look of surprise on her face growing more and more intense. Collapse! You have to know that in order to avoid the world from falling into panic, almost all forces will consciously conceal the fact of the collapse. Even if someone wants to leak it, they will be immediately located and blocked by the destiny. This comic actually openly wrote about the Honkai Impact 3 in the background story, and implicitly buried the birth of the Herrscher of the Void in the plot. The protagonist of the comic - the strongest magical girl - the savior witch Kiana looks almost exactly like Kiana. This means that the author of the comic is not only very familiar with the Herrscher of the Void, but is also very familiar with the second collapse more than ten years ago. It is easy to imagine what kind of sensation this comic book will cause once it spreads to the world. Not only will Tenmangu be caught in a public opinion storm, but the concept of collapse will also enter the public eye, and the turmoil caused will not be something that the two major organizations can handle. "Have you finished reading it?" Just when Theresa was still dizzy from shock, she realized that the two had finished their conversation. "Dr. Tesla, this comic book can't be..." A look of confusion appeared on her face. To be honest, Theresa didn't believe that any comic company would dare to publish such a comic. Tesla glared at Theresa unhappily and said unhappily, "Do you think I made this comic? I'm not that boring." Einstein shook his head and explained to Theresa, "The comic was found by our intelligence personnel in the ruins of Sky City. During this period, Skyman has been recovering the comic. Obviously, they also know the seriousness of the comic leak. But now that the incident has been over ten days, we have just received the news. The intelligence is really lagging too far behind." Anti-Entropy's main sphere of influence is in North America, and its penetration into other regions is far less than that of Tianming, not to mention places like Shenzhou. "So what does this have to do with Mei?" Tesla: "On the eve of the Sky City incident, Raiden Mei received a strange call, and then went to Sky City alone without my knowledge. It was obvious that she was looking for Kiana, but she lost contact for a long time afterwards. Although it can be understood that she was trying to avoid the pursuit of Tianming, there are still many things worth pondering."
"Impossible! Mei and the others are children I watched grow up. They would never do anything to betray me!" Looking at Theresa who was a little agitated, Einstein sighed and said, "We don't suspect her of betrayal, but we have too few clues. After we contacted her, she sent back a lot of key information, but very little about Kiana." "We already know that Kiana sent the bomb high into the sky in order to stop the World Serpent's plot, but then the entire Valkyrie Corps of Skyrim will be hunting them down. It's impossible for them to escape so easily, and what Mei is hiding should be the organization that can confront Skyrim head-on." Tesla: "According to the survivors, the sky over the entire city was on fire, with golden and red meteors interlacing, and the entire city was razed to the ground in the aftermath of their battle. If I'm not mistaken, the golden one is Yulandel, the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny, and the other one is probably from that mysterious organization." "Another thing is that some people claimed to have heard someone talking before the battle began. It seemed to mention words like [Queen] and [Qian Jue], like some crazy believers."
