Honkai, starting from being approached by Qiyana

Although under the leadership of the two organizations of Destiny and Anti-Entropy, the communication and logistics network that was temporarily cut off by the Great Honkai finally re-operated reluctantly.However, even after three months, the catastrophe caused by the awakening of the Herrscher of the Sky and its accompanying natural disasters still show no signs of stopping.

Under the pale full moon, the entire Tianqiong City was brightly lit, and the bright street lights illuminated the road where crowds and traffic flowed side by side, and the traffic flow was slowly blocked in the gaps between buildings accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of horns.

Originally, even in an extremely bustling city like Tianqiong City, there would not be such a terrifying flow of people in the middle of the night.But under the ravages of the Great Crash, many people from other cities swarmed into this city heavily armed with patrol mechs in this short period of time.

The entire Tianqiong City, during these three months, was so lively that it was like a feast that would never end.

All the drivers stuck in the road honked their horns.

The traffic policemen who haven't rested for an unknown amount of time are obviously sleepy. They are directing the traffic flow at various intersections and viaduct entrances, barely maintaining the minimum traffic without letting the traffic flow Completely blocked in place.

The people with their bags on their backs looked panic-stricken, wandering around like headless chickens in the gap between the cars.

They were unlucky to be kicked out of their homeland suddenly by Honkai, but at the same time, they were lucky.

Because compared with the mecha patrols located on the outskirts of Tianqiong City, as the protected party, at least their life safety was guaranteed from the moment they entered Tianqiong City.

In the periphery of Tianqiong City, the frequency of Honkai outbreaks in the surrounding area is still increasing. The entire Tianqiong City has already entered a state of complete martial law preparations, and all mechas have been deployed to their respective lines of defense.

Today, most of the buildings have already been turned into broken walls by the wrestling of patrol mechs and Houkai Beasts. The roads full of reinforced concrete are full of cracks, and piles of ruins are rising with the rise. Thick fog and flames blazed.

"No. [-] calls! No. [-] calls! A large number of Houkai can be detected at the current coordinate position to respond! No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-] are confronting a large number of Houkai beasts! Call for firepower and mecha support! Request firepower and machines A support!"

"Received by the command center! Pilots No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-] in South No. [-] area! Follow the target location provided by No. [-] to go to support immediately!"

"No. [-]! No. [-]! The signals of No. [-] and No. [-] have disappeared from the monitoring system. Please report the situation on the scene! Please report the situation on the scene!" The voice of the command center came from the headset of No. [-] pilot.

"Report! The mechas of No. [-] and No. [-] have been damaged! The vital signs of the pilot are still good! But I can't hold it anymore!"

"Hold on! The defense line in the East No. [-] area must not be breached! The three pilots in the South No. [-] area have already driven patrol mechas to support, and they will arrive in two and a half minutes!"

"Don't fucking ask them to come to support! The number of Honkai Beasts invading the scene has exceeded [-]! And it is still increasing! It cannot be solved by three patrol mechas!" Pilot No. [-] shouted, "If this continues It is only a matter of time before the line of defense collapses! Pilot No. [-] requests immediate release of BVR weapons!! Aim at the current position of No. [-] Patrol Mecha and carry out saturated fire bombing! While I can contain them! Hurry up!"

"..."

Probably the people in the headquarters are also quite distressed by such a decision, right?After a short silence, pilot No. [-] clearly heard a click, the sound of teeth rubbing through the headset.

Then, there was the sound of a button being pressed heavily.

In the cockpit of the mecha, the dazzling red and blue flashing lights suddenly lit up, and the beeping alarm sounded continuously to warn the fifth pilot that the mecha was about to reach its limit.

Pilot No. [-] was covered in cold sweat, and his pupils covered by the helmet were bloodshot and uncontrollably exhausted.He rolled his eyeballs, glanced at the white beast covering the entire head display in front of him, and then shook the joystick in his left hand, briefly switching the screen playing on the display to the camera behind the mecha , glanced at the two teammates' mechas that were smoking, couldn't help but swallowed lightly, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down.

Despite the assistance of Destiny and Anti-Entropy, ordinary military communication methods cannot reach the area where the Honkai broke out, and the unmanned control system will also fail when the Honkai breaks out. When the tide of Honkai beasts came and the Honkai beasts broke out at a high frequency, these ordinary people who were just ordinary soldiers, except relying on the tactical mechs to exchange their lives for the specific coordinates of the Honkai beasts and drag them Let the command center of Tianqiong City adjust the launch trajectory inside the missile in advance, and then carry out saturated fire bombing on the area where they are located to clear all the invading Honkai Beasts, and can hardly do anything else matter.

Since the outbreak of Honkai three months ago, the pilots controlling the patrol mechas have been killed every day. From the beginning, they felt sad about the sacrifice of their companions and developed into numbness later. As a result, now, even facing their own death is difficult. No more fear, but a sense of relief welling up in my chest.

He is probably going to die here together with No. [-] and No. [-]. Pilot No. [-] thought to himself, it feels...not bad to have two comrades in arms to accompany him on the road.

But just as the No. [-] pilot closed his eyes after giving the final order to the mecha, and was waiting for the imminent saturation bombing, a clear and pleasant gunshot sound suddenly rang out from his ears .

It is very strange to use the two adjectives [crispy] and [pleasant] to describe gunshots. The so-called gunshots are generally rude and harsh, even if a pistol with a muffler is used, it will definitely not There was a pleasant gunshot.

But at this moment, apart from these two words, Pilot No. [-] could no longer use other adjectives to describe the voice he heard.

Before he could figure out what the sudden gunshot was, a huge sense of weightlessness suddenly came from his cockpit—before he closed his eyes, he issued a firm grip on the mech with his mechanical arm. He followed the instructions of the white beast in front of him, and now, as the white beast suddenly lost the power to compete with the patrol mech, the entire body of the patrol mech fell forward uncontrollably.

What's happening here?Even in the stage of waiting for the bombing, the combat instinct squeezed to the limit by the fifth pilot still allowed him to quickly adjust the balance and standing posture of the patrol mecha. He opened his eyes and wanted to use the ultimate Quickly figure out what's going on around you.

Then, he saw an unforgettable scene in his life.

Did you realize that a powerful enemy suddenly appeared on the scene?In the eyes of the fifth pilot, all the Honkai Beasts, which were fast but not completely incapable of fighting, exploded at an unprecedented speed. During this period of time, a total of 24 huge and vicious beasts appeared in this area. The pale beast, with a proportion that makes everyone feel desperate, is like a landslide, rushing towards the elegant woman holding a white pistol from all directions without any dead ends.

The burning flames of the ruins shone on the white bodies of those Honkai Beasts, and the body of the elegant woman who had just shot a shot to save the desperate mecha was completely covered by a large black shadow. The division almost instinctively wanted to control the mecha to rush over, but the foot of the patrol mecha he was controlling had already been destroyed in the previous wrestling with the collapsed joints. Although it was not completely unable to move, it could still It completely lost the mobility that the humanoid mecha should have.

However, before pilot No. [-] could feel regret and lament, the elegant woman who had just helped him out suddenly moved.

In the eyes of No. [-] pilot, she just flicked the blue and white pistol-like weapon in her hand lightly.

Then, in the flickering twilight that even made him wonder if it was an illusion, the bodies of all the Houkai beasts surrounding the elegant woman were instantly torn apart.

"Wha..." Pilot No. [-] opened his mouth. This absurd and unrealistic scene shocked this young soldier, who can be regarded as experienced in many battles in the past two months, so much that his jaw almost dropped. fell to the ground.

What happened?

This woman, what did she just do?

Although the patrol mechas controlled by these pilots are not incapable of defeating the Honkai Beast, but in fact, when they face the Honkai Beast, they must also be very energetic in order to be able to fight against the Honkai Beast together. After a hard fight, they barely defeated them.

In terms of numbers, when a patrol mech faces less than three Honkai beasts at the same time, it may still be able to rely on the pilot's human wisdom to use tactics to defeat these irrational Honkai beasts. The beasts were destroyed one by one, but if it exceeded this number... the combat ability that the patrol mecha can display is very weak.

In an instant, he faced 24 Honkai beasts attacking at the same time, and then used a method that the fifth pilot could not understand at all to easily disintegrate their bodies into that kind of torn apart.

"The Honkai Beasts in the southeast have all been cleaned up. 0019, enter standby mode." Just as the No. [-] pilot was full of confusion, the graceful woman walked in front of the mech he was controlling with light and elegant steps, " The pilot of this mecha, I can see the signs of life you still have, can you communicate now?"

"...No, no problem!" After hearing the woman's mature and stable voice, the No. [-] pilot, who forced himself to calm down, temporarily suppressed the shock in his heart, and turned on the external broadcast module of the mecha, "Thank you very much Your assistance!"

"It's fine, your two companions should be fine, and then you will be responsible for bringing them back." The elegant mature woman said, "My time is limited, so I can't protect you all the way back , However, if there is no accident, at least tonight, you should not encounter any other Honkai beasts."

"0019, unfold the wingsuit module, let's go."

"Wait……!"

Before pilot No. [-] could speak to persuade him to stay, the elegant woman raised her palm above her head, and then easily grabbed something flying by, and quickly disappeared from his vision.

After the elegant woman left, accompanied by a metallic sound, the cockpit of the patrol mecha unfolded from the inside. Pilot No. [-] supported the edge of the cockpit, struggled to stand up from the mecha, and jumped to the ground covered with cracks. on the ground.

He took off his helmet, shook his head, and let his consciousness wake up a little in the cold night wind, then turned his head and glanced at the two patrol mechas of the same model as his behind him, although the two The pilots in the mecha temporarily lost consciousness due to the intense impact, and the mecha itself was in a state of being scrapped, but the vital signs of the pilots were relatively stable for the time being.

After confirming that the life safety of his comrades-in-arms has not received a fatal threat for the time being, the No. [-] pilot heaved a sigh of relief, and then he murmured: "By the way...you have to report to the command immediately..."

"Wait, the headquarters should have released saturated firepower to bomb here just now, right?" Suddenly, the No. [-] pilot who was just about to contact the headquarters was stunned. He raised his head and looked at Wanli Wuyun In the night sky, "Why haven't missiles flew over until now? Could it be that... is this also a good thing that woman did just now?"

"He defeated so many Honkai Beasts in an instant, and even hacked into the military network of Tianqiong City, forcibly canceling the order of firepower coverage... Who is that woman? Is it similar to the heroine in anime? Is it a kind of big shot?"

At the same time, similar scenes were constantly being staged in various areas around Tianqiong City.

——That's it, about half an hour later.

"Wooha—what a soft bed."

At eleven o'clock in the evening, in a five-star hotel in Tianqiong City.

The Herrscher of Fire Flames threw himself on the soft bed without caring about his own image, rubbing his soft and fair cheek against the soft pillow.

"After finishing the work, there will be a hotel where you can check in immediately, and you don't need to worry about the identity issue at all. It really is the best to perform the mission with Bronya."

"As expected of Kiyana, she really spoke quite emotionally." An elegant woman who was identified as a heroine by an unknown pilot——Bronya Zaycek [Secondary Silver Wing] looked calm Sitting on the edge of the bed, her plump and round thighs overlapped above the edge of the bed, "But I have to remind you, even if you flatter me, you won't get any benefit."

"Compared to that kind of thing, now is not the time to relax and prepare for sleep." The Herrscher of Thunder glanced at the shapeless Herrscher of Fire and Bronya who was sitting by the bed, and then looked at Glancing at Qiyana [Sky Ranger], who couldn't blend into their atmosphere at all, and who seemed a bit autistic, she finally looked at Li Shubai with a questioning look, and shrugged her shoulders pretending to be indifferent, " Captain, what are you going to do about this Kiana matter here?"

"...I don't know, do you have any suggestions?" Li Shubai glanced at the silent Qiyana, and scratched his head guiltily, "She hasn't resisted us since half an hour ago, but She also refused to say a word at all, if it wasn't for the fact that she would shoot when encountering the Honkai Beast, I would have thought there was some strange bug in her data?"

data?The Herrscher of Thunder, the Herrscher of Salinity Flame, and the second-born Silver Wing were all stunned. They all turned their eyes and glanced at Qiyana at the same time, feeling a little strange about Li Shubai's words.

"What does this mean?" the Herrscher of Salinity asked, "What do you mean her data has a bug?"

"Don't you know?" Li Shubai glanced at the Herrscher of Salinity quickly, "This Tianqiong City is just a data space made up of my memory, and I only appeared here because I followed Aiyi's suggestion , she thinks, instead of recounting my past experiences in words, it would be better for me to personally experience several key events that I have experienced in the past, aren't you three the same?"

The Herrscher of Salinity Flame, the Herrscher of Thunder, and the Secondary Silver Wing looked at each other in blank dismay.

Taking advantage of the gap when no one noticed her, Qiyana gently raised her eyes, and turned her head slightly with a subtle arc that no one noticed.

Kiyana is actually a very intuitive person.

She could instinctively feel that neither Li Shubai nor the slightly grown-up self, Leiden Mei, and... that Bronya who seemed to be a different person had no malice towards her.

But at the same time, three months ago, the experience of being kidnapped by Fu Hua, who was still serving as a spy under Otto at that time, made Qiyana, who had always thought that Fu Hua was a good monitor For a while, I didn't dare to continue to trust my intuition.

In the same silence not long ago, Kiyana lowered her head again and asked quietly in her heart.

(Squad leader, do you think our world... is just a stage made of data like that boy said?)

(…This is not achievable from a purely technical point of view.)

Fu Hua, who was lurking in the depths of Qiyana's consciousness, gave a negative answer after hesitating for a moment.

(Whether it is destiny, anti-entropy, or even the world snake, it is impossible to reproduce an existence similar to me today in the data space.)

(Of course... If you don't analyze these realistic factors, but simply analyze it from the perspective of [possibility]... I can only say that I really can't come up with valid evidence to refute that boy's point of view.)

(After all... things that are even more impossible to happen have indeed happened before our eyes. Compared with the fact that the essence of this world is actually a data space... the time travel that brings people from the future to the past is actually more detached from reality.)

Hearing Fu Hua's analysis, Qiyana couldn't help pursing her lips, and a trace of indescribable confusion flashed across her golden-blue eyes.

Could it be that, whether it is her or the world, in the eyes of others, they are actually just a series of meaningless data?

It was at this moment that the Herrscher of Fire Flames suddenly spoke.

"Is it a data space? Wouldn't it be good to verify it?"

"Verification?" Li Shubai asked, "How to verify?"

"The technology of unfolding memory in the form of data space is the technology that World Snake used to build the Paradise of the Past, right?" Moved to Qiyana, "If I remember correctly, at this point in time, I should be bound by her consciousness to me after the squad leader used Yu Duchen's zero rated power. ,Right?"

"...What..." Kiyana's pupils shrank slightly.

Although the appearance of the Herrscher of Fire Flames is indeed very similar to her slightly grown-up appearance, until now, she has been buried deep in her heart, temporarily The secret that she has not told anyone, Qiyana finally has the real feeling that [this person is indeed her future self].

"If it is a technology similar to that of the World Snake, then Yu Duchen's ability... the zeroth rated power should not be able to work." said the Herrscher of Salinity Flame, "After all, in the form of memory It is impossible for the God's Key unfolded in the data space to display its full capabilities."

"Indeed." The Herrscher of Thunder nodded, "If it wasn't for the cost of self-destruction and the help of Su's power, even that guy Kevin, in the paradise of the past, couldn't rely solely on himself One alone to unleash the full power of the Keys of Destruction."

"That's right, so monitor, you should be here, right?" The Herrscher of Fire Flame laughed, "Aren't you going to come out and meet us?"

"..."

Ugh.

After a faint sigh, Fu Hua's translucent body gradually emerged beside Qiyana.

Chapter 2 The Melancholy of the Herrscher of Thunder 4k

"Self-introduction...it seems unnecessary." The translucent Fu Hua was wearing a red robe covered with flame patterns. She appeared behind Kiyana like a ghost, looking at the Herrscher of Fire Flames. His eyes were full of indescribable complex emotions, "You..."

Fu Hua originally wanted to ask, "Have you fully controlled the power of the Herrscher?" But just after the word "you" was spoken, her words suddenly stopped, and her red pupils, like burning flames, revealed A palpable look of bewilderment.

Before today, Fu Hua had been persuading Qiyana not to use the power of the Herrscher. After being injected with a large amount of Houkai energy by Otto, she and the Herrscher consciousness hidden deep in her consciousness fought against the power of the sky. There is an insurmountable objective gap in the degree of control.

That kind of gap cannot be erased by Qiyana at this stage simply relying on her will.It is precisely for this reason that even with the cooperation of the two, Fu Hua does not think that Qiyana can really drive the Herrscher of the Sky to her heart's content without paying any price. power up.

In Fu Hua's cognition, the consciousness of the Herrscher controlled by Honkai is not an existence that human beings can overcome with strong willpower. Fu Hua will still not advise Qiyana to fully use her power as the Herrscher of the Void under non-essential circumstances.

She may be able to help Qiyana restrain her Herrscher consciousness once or twice, but in the long run, Kiyana's body will be one step ahead of her consciousness, and will be tortured by Houkai to a collapsed state.

However, the more mature Qiyana in front of her...
