Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

"Sister Mei, be careful!"

Seeing an Assault-level Honkai Beast flying towards Mei from behind, Bronya immediately commanded the heavy-armed bunny to blast it into pieces. Mei Yi also took the opportunity to kill several Assault-level Honkai Beasts in front of her with two swords. beast.

"Thank you, Bronny...eh?"

"Sister Mei!!"

Before she could say her thanks, Mei Yi, who was about to turn around, stepped on the solid landing deck of Hyperion. She felt dazed and had a strong sense of weightlessness at the same time. In the blink of an eye, the girl had fallen into the void formed by her feet. Golden void.

……

"Well…"

After the brief fall, Mei Yi felt as if she was being held in someone's arms. However, when she opened her eyes, she found that she was already in the unfamiliar sky. Hyperion, who was originally at her feet, was now far away. She was constantly fighting against the incoming Honkai beasts, and what came to Mei Yi's eyes was a face that was very familiar to her, but at this moment, it was cold and unfamiliar to her.

"Kiana!?"

It was simply unbelievable that the person they had tried so hard to save was right in front of her at this moment. Mei Yi couldn't believe her eyes for a moment, but when she saw the girl's strange golden eyes, Mei Yi suddenly felt her heart tightening.

"No...this person...is not Kiana..."

This idea was verified the moment the girl holding her spoke: "I found you, Mei~Mei~my dear half body~☆"

That brisk tone made Mei Yi feel an instinctive fear. The fear did not come from her heart, but from something "something" in her body.

"you…"

"Okay, now, return to my control, my half~☆"

"Ugh?!"

Suddenly, Mei felt a tremor coming from behind, and something was forcibly invading her body from there. To be precise, it was Kiana's hand supporting her back.

"stop----!"

What flew through the air along with someone's voice was a silver sword blade. The sword flew past "Kiana" like a warning, and then more floating flying blades came from all directions. "Kiana" flew towards the position where the two of them were, and barely escaped being pierced by two flying blades. "Kiana" was forced to release her hands in order to defend herself. She casually dropped the girl in her arms from a high altitude and waved her hand. She shot away a short silver blade that was stabbing her.

Mei Yi looked at the figure that was getting further away from her. Before she could react, she was carefully caught by the armored captain and flew to the "Third Airport" below.

"Are you okay, Mei?"

"Captain!" After seeing the reassuring young man's face, Mei Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hmph, human..." After realizing that those flying blades just flew past him and had no intention of stabbing him, he looked at the boy flying Mei Yi to the airport ground below, and the white-haired girl floating in the sky also He just snorted calmly.

"Mei, go find a safe place to hide, and leave Kiana to me."

After returning to the ground and putting the girl down in his arms, the captain started the armor's thrusters again, preparing to fly to a place where someone was in the sky. The girl's intuition forced Mei to hold onto the captain's hand before he left, but her rationality made her let go of the hand she didn't want to let go.

"Mea Yi..."

"Captain, Kiana..."

"As a fellow "Herrscher", you should already understand what's going on. I will find a way. You must protect yourself, Mei Yi. "

After saying that, the captain drove the armor and rushed high into the sky at high speed, leaving only the girl on the ground who was worried about the retreating figure.

Under the night sky without any starlight, ominous clouds were suppressing the Mediterranean area that had not yet seen dawn. Occasionally, thunder and lightning roared in the dark clouds, indicating that a heavy rain was coming.

And in this dark sky, the boy holding the "Key of God" and the girl who was the agent of "God" faced each other.

The girl stared at the slightly desolate starry sky in the branches, and her golden eyes revealed a majestic light.

Perhaps, for the two of them at this moment, this is not the reunion they wanted...

But... there is only one thing, both of them know it...

After more than ten years, the Honkai Queen named "Herrscher of the Sky" has returned. She will look down on the miserable creatures called "human beings" here, hold high the "authority" in her hands, and grant them equal gifts. The end of life.

However, as an apostle of "God", "human beings" are pathetic and ridiculous in her opinion, so destruction is the highest mercy she can give them, but the human being in front of her can be an exception.

The resentment and hatred accumulated over the past ten years turned out to be just her wishful thinking and her ignorant suspicion. In the stolen memories of hundreds of years, the girl named Xilin had already recognized his sincerity.

Now she knows that there is nothing false in the emotion of cherishing herself, and there is not a trace of filth in that warm and sincere heart.

Therefore, she was willing to give him some slack.

So after a certain sound of thunder ended, the girl who was the apostle of "God" deliberately spoke in an indifferent tone: "Human, I have given you a chance to escape, but you still want to appear in front of me, you really Aren't you afraid of death?"

The question uttered by the ethereal voice that penetrated the space did not make the captain hesitate at all. The captain stared at the noble figure as if overlooking all living beings, and finally just clenched the jet black soldier in his hand. blade.

"I said, the person I want to greet is not you, but Kiana. It is my responsibility as her captain to allow that girl to decide the future path of her own will."

"Hmph~ Do you care that much about that fool? As far as the container that carries the soul is concerned, I have the same face as her now~☆"

"But you are the Herrscher named Sirin, not the Valkyrie named Kiana. This body has never been yours. "

"Stupid..." There was a hint of dissatisfaction in the conclusion spoken by the ethereal voice, but immediately, "The Herrscher" smiled and gently floated to the captain's side. That too casual movement also expressed her at this moment. There was no obvious hostility, so the captain was in no hurry to act rashly.

I saw that noble figure flying to the captain's side, reaching out to put a hand on his shoulder, and whispered proudly in his ear: "Human~ you are wrong, this body was originally designed to allow me to come to the world again. A container prepared for this world~☆"

"..."

"That ridiculous man who tried to control the power of "god", in order to wake me up as quickly as possible, haha, guess what he did? "

"...?"

Observing the doubtful expressions flashing across the faces of the humans who were close at hand, "The Herrscher" couldn't help but feel joy welling up in his heart: "He... after he found out that you were coming, when you were attacking his territory, he had already taken the initiative to attack his territory. The power of "death" has been returned to me, hehehehe~☆"

"!?"

The captain couldn't help being surprised after hearing this. He originally thought that Otto awakened the "Herrscher" personality in Kiana by injecting a large amount of Honkai energy in a short period of time. However, the fact is that Otto His approach was more thorough and extreme than he thought.
