Honkai Impact 3: Taking Life as C? Even the Valkyries are afraid of me

"Report your position."

"Changkong Central Hospital, enemy number one."

The powerful Honkai energy reaction and the number of them being one indicated that the power came from the same object, so Bai Ming guessed that it was probably a Pseudo-Rensor.

When there is a state in the Honkai where the adaptability of Honkai energy is very high but it has not reached the level to give birth to a Herrscher, a being called "Pseudo-Hersherscher" will appear. The Pseudo-Hershersher is close to the body and [Pseudo-Hershersher Core] of the Herrscher.

However, the amount of Honkai energy that can be endured and stored is far from that of the genuine Herrscher core. However, special Pseudo-Herschers can grow by absorbing Honkai energy and eventually become Pseudo-Herschers with Herrscher-level strength. Yaezakura is such a special existence.

Moreover, the Pseudo-Herrscher Core can be "artificially" created. In the plot of the second Honkai, Xilin spent his energy to create a Pseudo-Herrscher Core for the dying Judgment-level Honkai Beast Bella on the moon. It not only greatly enhanced Bella's strength, but also made the Judgment-level Honkai Beast have a high level of intellectual cognition like humans.

After listening to the Valkyrie's report, Jizi's battlefield instinct made her smell the breath of danger. Such a powerful Honkai energy reaction was all directed at one target.

How powerful must the enemy be? Perhaps even with my own strength, I would be defeated. Jizi was aware of her own strength.

She had thought she could go back smoothly and have a drink, but she didn't expect that enemy to appear on the way. Well, she didn't do anything. She was just killed a few times by Bai Ming in the illusion, and then she recovered Raiden Mei. In fact, she didn't do anything.

As expected, it's time to have a big fight. Jizi cheered up. If she was alone, she might have to fight hard, but if Theresa was added, such an enemy should not be a big problem.

Ji Zi still recognizes Theresa's strength.

"Continue to monitor the target's actions. The principal and I will come forward to resolve the situation."

"Want to fight? I want to go too."

Ji Zi hesitated. Regardless of whether Bai Ming's words that he had cleared out all the enemies in Changkong City were true, his ability to give the enemy mental attacks could indeed play a big role in combat, if the enemy was really a Pseudo-Hermaphrodite and not some Emperor Honkai Beast or something like that.

"It's okay, but are you really okay?"

She clearly remembered the bleeding eyes of the other party after he used that ability. It was a bit creepy and she was really afraid that he would go blind.

"Of course it's okay. Don't worry, bleeding eyes are normal. I have a doctor's certificate. And this is my compensation for the smacking you guys just now."

"I'd like to state in advance that I don't hold grudges."

Ji Zi felt the need to explain that she was not such a petty person. She understood that Bai Ming just wanted to protect his friend.

Think about it from another perspective. If one day Theresa becomes a Herrscher and does not go berserk and lose control like Raiden Mei, I will also stay by Theresa's side to protect her.

Finally, Ji Zi nodded and agreed to Bai Ming joining the action. She saw the other party walking in another direction and quickly reminded him.

"You're going the wrong way. Should you go this way? Or do you want to go call Theresa? That's fine too."

"No, I want to call them all over."

Although he didn't say anything, Bai Ming could still read Ji Zi's thoughts from her tired face: Do you know what you are saying? Brother, don't mess with me.

As a Herrscher, Mei Raiden should be prevented from coming into contact with Honkai energy and fighting before confirming that she is completely fine, so as to prevent any accidents from happening to her. If she knew that at present, they had no means to restrict the Herrscher.

Yes, just as Bai Ming said, Raiden Mei's condition is indeed stable now, but what if? She doesn't want to engage in a life-and-death battle. It would be a pity if they were companions who could stand together but turned against each other and fought each other because of an unpredictable accident.

"What on earth are you thinking about? Aren't you supposed to ensure Raiden Mei's safety? Have you thought about the possible consequences?"

Jizi really didn't understand Bai Ming's thoughts. If he really wanted to ensure Mei Raiden's wishes, he should let her stay here. If he didn't trust them, he could also stay here instead of taking Mei Raiden with him to fight.

"Have you heard the story of "The Little Fish in the Shallow Water"?"

"?" Ji Zi didn't understand why he suddenly mentioned this. Did he want to explain something to her?

Bai Ming ignored Ji Zi and continued to talk: "Early in the morning, I went to the beach for a walk..."

……

“Why are you still picking it up?”

"This little fish cares," the boy answered, picking up a fish and throwing it into the sea. He kept picking up fish and throwing fish, repeating, "This one cares, this one cares, and this one, this one, and this one."

Although the original text does not express this meaning, Bai Ming thinks it is okay to use it here. He just wants to throw little fish (glory) into the hearts of Mei and Kiana.

Especially Kiana, because she was Otto's pawn and suffered the most persecution. She became depressed after the last lesson. The silly cat and worm that was always around will never come back.

The word maturity is nothing more than the result of compromising with the world, but Bai Ming doesn't like that. He wants to use another method to make them grow up.

After listening to this, Jizi fell silent. After all, she was a teacher and educator. Combined with Mei's identity as a Herrscher, it was not difficult for her to hear what Bai Ming wanted to express. She also understood why Bai Ming wanted to take her to fight against the Honkai and save civilians regardless of danger.

As a Herrscher, the people of the world naturally harbor hostility towards Mei Raiden, but she is only a 17-year-old girl with little experience. If her identity as a Herrscher is exposed one day, how can she fight against the darkness and discrimination in people's hearts?

Bai Ming took her to save lives and fight enemies one after another. Wasn't this just placing the glory of little fish in her heart?

One day, when she is alone and trapped in darkness and despair, the glory she has accumulated will turn into fireflies in the darkness to guide her forward and even pierce through the darkness.

Did you even consider the future? She glanced at Bai Ming and sighed in her heart: Gentle guy, what a good man, why didn't you let me meet him earlier?

However, Jizi thinks that Bai Ming is the little boy, and Raiden Mei is the fish that was saved, so this metaphor is more appropriate.

Well, there was no other way. It had come to this point, so she naturally couldn't refuse.

"I agree, but if Theresa disagrees, then there's nothing I can do. You have to convince her yourself."

After explaining the situation to Theresa and requesting to lead Mei, Kiana, and Bronya to attack, Theresa rejected it without hesitation, and the reason was exactly what Himeko had thought at the beginning.

Jizi talked to her alone for a while, and after telling her Bai Ming's idea exactly as it was, Theresa glanced at Kiana and agreed easily.

This surprised Ji Zi a little. She knew that Theresa paid more attention to the overall situation. It was really unbelievable that she would change her decision just because of such a statement.

"I agree to the request of the personnel to join this battle. Bai Ming, although you are not one of us yet, you must follow my command in this battle. Ji Zi and I will deal with the enemy, and you will just assist from the side. Do you understand?"

Everyone said they had no objection, and of course Bai Ming was the same. He just hoped that Mi Huyou would show mercy and not beat his mascot too badly.

Soon, the group boarded the Hyperion's frigate and arrived at the place where the radar detected a sudden reaction of Honkai energy.
