Moreover, there are many different eye colors in the Honkai Impact world; Kiana's eyes are blue, for example.
Could this be Kiana's first time seeing red eyes? Well, that's certainly possible. After all, people tend to show great interest when encountering new things, and it's inevitable that they'd praise them.
Looking at Kiana, who was about the same height as him and was still in his arms, Bai Mo couldn't help but swallow.
After all, this was the first time in his life he had been so close to a girl, except for his mother and such.
At this moment, Bai Mo wished he were a man! Such a hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scene... what a pity!
After sighing, watching the tornadoes around him gradually dissipate, Bai Mo slowly canceled the Honkai energy barrier, but then used the power of reason to materialize a katana and held it in his hand.
“The attack outside has stopped, but we seem to be buried inside. Let me carry you. Also, we need to clear the rocks ahead, as it's inconvenient and I'm afraid I'll hurt you.”
Looking down at Kiana, who was still gritting her teeth and enduring the pain, Bai Mo said softly, while also smoothing Kiana's already frizzy hair.
"Thank you... My name is Kiana. By the way, I don't know your name yet."
Seeing Bai Mo already leaning down, Kiana struggled to lie down on him and then said weakly.
"Just call me Bai Mo. It's nice to meet you, Kiana. But let's make this clear first: you have to treat me to a nice meal after you recover."
Considering Kiana's injuries, Bai Mo lowered his body further, trying to make Kiana more comfortable. To ease the atmosphere, Bai Mo also made a half-joking remark.
Then, Bai Mo carried Kiana on his back and walked forward with his katana in his right hand.
…………
"Hahahaha, under this kind of attack, I'm afraid your classmates won't even be left with corpses. Now, it's your turn!"
In the midst of the battlefield, Wendy flew through the air and laughed wildly, looking disdainfully at Mei and Bronya in the distance. Although her strength was not as great as before, she was sure she could kill the two of them if she used her full power.
After saying that, Wendy stopped paying attention to the ruins and leisurely flew straight towards the place where Mei and Bronya were fighting.
"Kiana... It's all my fault... It's all my fault for not protecting you... If I could use that power... things wouldn't be like this."
Looking at the place where Kiana was swallowed by the tornado in the distance, Mei's hand holding the sword trembled slightly, but then returned to normal, and even tightened its grip a little more than before.
Raising her head, gripping Muramasa tightly, and staring directly at Wendy flying towards her, and Bronya poised to attack at any moment, Mei's eyes flashed with a few streaks of purple light.
But just as Mei was about to make up her mind to use that forbidden power, Kiana's voice came through the Valkyrie's special call channel...
Chapter Seven: Though I'm not human, you really are a dog.
.....................
"Phew, I never want to go through being buried alive again."
After a period of twists and turns, Bai Mo finally brought Kiana out. Looking at the sun overhead, Bai Mo couldn't help but complain.
After all, it was too oppressive to be in the ruins. While clearing the road, rocks would fall from time to time. Although they didn't cause any serious injury, it was still a problem to have wounded people on my back.
Clearing rocks with a knife is difficult to do, and Bai Mo doesn't know any sword skills. He's just using brute force to swing his sword. As a result, after finally clearing a path, it was buried by falling rocks again.
Anyone would be angry in this situation, but thankfully he's out now, which makes Bai Mo very relieved.
After they came out, Bai Mo didn't rush to take Kiana to find Mei and Bronya. Instead, he chose to settle Kiana in a safe place first.
After all, there might be Anti-Entropy Titans coming to cause trouble later, so Kiana isn't really safe here. It wouldn't be good if she got caught in the crossfire.
After sharing his thoughts with Kiana, she nodded in agreement, since she was indeed a burden now and couldn't cause any more trouble.
And so, the two began searching for a place to settle down around the battlefield. Because Bai Mo had promised Kiana that he would help Mei and Bronya after they came out of the ruins, there was no time to go to places that were too far from the battlefield.
After searching for some time, Bai Mo finally led Kiana to a safe house.
The location here is low-lying, making it ideal for hiding. It's also close to the battlefield, so if an emergency occurs, Bai Mo can take Kiana away immediately. Furthermore, the overall structure of the house is very safe. Thus, Bai Mo settled Kiana here.
"Bai Mo, I'm entrusting Mei and Bronya to you. I promise Mei will make lots of delicious food for you!"
Leaning against the bedside, Kiana held Bai Mo's hand and said with a smile.
"Alright, alright, you just stay here. I have to go help out first, otherwise it'll be too late if I get there later."
Ignoring Kiana, Bai Mo was anxious to save lives and rushed towards the battlefield at top speed.
…………
Kiana, who was alone in the room, wanted to do something after Bai Mo left. So she reluctantly opened the Valkyrie's dedicated call channel to try and contact Mei and Theresa.
"You guys are really tough to deal with, you've managed to hold out until now."
On the battlefield, Wendy, now in her Herrscher form, spoke breathlessly, her previous arrogance long gone.
He had been in the lead all along, defeating Raiden Mei and Bronya in one fell swoop, and even knocking Bronya unconscious.
But just now, Raiden Mei suddenly seemed to have been injected with adrenaline, dodging Wendy's attacks while also inflicting considerable damage on herself, which Wendy found somewhat unbelievable.
He hadn't killed her companion; wasn't she just moments ago still overwhelmed with grief? Why did she suddenly seem like a completely different person?
Could it be that the white-haired girl didn't die? Impossible! Absolutely impossible! There's no way any human could survive such an attack.
Shaking her head, Wendy tried her best to banish these unrealistic thoughts from her mind, and then directly condensed the wind into a katana and slashed at Mei.
"Bang...bang...bang!"
Mei, realizing what was happening, immediately met the attack head-on with her own blade, managing to block it. Surprisingly, when Mei's blade touched Wendy's wind blade, it produced a series of explosive sounds.
Furthermore, upon closer inspection, one can also discover that the wind blade that Wendy conjured in her hand has an outer layer of serrated edges made of wind.
These serrations are rotating at high speed every second.
"Damn it, I'll be the first one to give up if this keeps up. I need to think of something right away."
Feeling the mournful cries emanating from the blade, Mei realized that things couldn't continue like this.
Just as Mei was about to use the downward momentum to dissipate the force of the knife and escape this predicament, two bullets suddenly flew from behind her and shot straight at Wendy.
If it were ordinary bullets, Wendy would naturally be fine, but these two bullets were actually constructed from Honkai energy, and if they hit her, it would definitely be a loss.
Therefore, Wendy had no choice but to take a few steps back and use her Honkai energy to block the two bullets.
Mei seized this opportunity to distance herself from Wendy.
"You must be Bai Mo, the one Kiana mentioned. Thank you so much for saving Kiana!"
Looking back in the direction the bullet came from, Mei saw Bai Mo, who had just arrived.
Since Kiana had spoken to her about the situation not long ago, Mei immediately guessed Bai Mo's identity.
"Did I already say that? I thought I had to explain it again."
Seeing Mei walking towards him, Bai Mo awkwardly twirled a strand of hair and said.
"Despicable! Is this the only tactic you humans can use: ambush and betrayal? You...humans...? Humans?"
"You...you're not even human!"
After deflecting the bullet, Wendy, feeling ashamed and angry at this sneak attack, turned to look at Bai Mo in front of her and shouted loudly. However, Wendy quickly realized that something was wrong.
That is, the guy who shot him twice is not human at all!
Feeling the restless desire for the gem within her, Wendy immediately realized that this guy was a Herrscher, just like her!
But why should a Herrscher help these damned humans?! For a moment, Wendy's resentment towards Bai Mo reached its peak.
"Hey, hey, hey, fighting is fighting, but how can you call me inhuman!"
Holy crap! It really could sense that I wasn't human. I knew it! Herrschers must be able to sense each other, otherwise, the way I looked at the airport wouldn't have made sense.
Upon hearing Wendy's remarks, Bai Mo was nearly terrified and quickly changed the subject to try and dodge the question.
If I keep talking like this, I might get arrested and used for experiments one day.
"How shameful! I feel ashamed for you!"
"In that case, you might as well die along with these damned humans!"
Seemingly unwilling to delay any longer, Wendy immediately prepared to mobilize her remaining Honkai energy for a desperate battle.
But at that moment, things took a dramatic turn. The space around the three of them suddenly turned red, and then one by one, the Titan mechs belonging to Anti-Entropy deactivated their cloaking and became visible.
Clearly, Cocolia didn't want to wait any longer, since it wouldn't be good if Schicksal's S-rank Valkyrie arrived later.
Chapter 8, Part 2: Lawyer Powers.
"Kiana, the Hyperion has located your position. We'll be there in about 20 minutes. I never imagined the power of the Gem of Desire would suddenly become so strong."
"Don't worry, Auntie, I feel much better now."
Lying in bed, Kiana watched Theresa's worried expression in the video and felt a warm current flow through her heart.
"Kiana, you must be careful. If you encounter any emergencies, you must evacuate the battlefield immediately. Your own safety must be the least important thing."
On the Hyperion battleship, Himeko, who was next to Theresa, suddenly leaned into the video feed and said seriously.
After all, these are all my students. Even when fighting against the Honkai, I can't joke with my life. When facing an enemy I can't defeat, running away is not shameful.
And so, through the back-and-forth conversation of the three, Theresa finally understood the current situation.
First, Kiana was rescued by a girl named Bai Mo, and then Bronya suddenly lost her mind and attacked Wendy, Kiana, and Mei.
Most importantly, an Anti-Entropy Titan has now appeared on the battlefield!
Could it be that the Anti-Entropy faction is planning to use the power of the Gem of Desire to create an artificial Honkai?
The thought of the tragedy in Changkong City caused Theresa to involuntarily furrow her brow.
"Hyperion, shut down weapon systems and other consumables, and get to the scene within 10 minutes!"
"At the same time, notify the S-rank Valkyrie Durandal to be ready for battle at any time!"
There was no time for grief or hesitation. Upon hearing that members of Anti-Entropy were involved in the battle, Himeko made a decision: she had to get to the scene as quickly as possible.
It's estimated that Bronya's loss of control is also related to Anti-Entropy. Although Bronya was previously an Anti-Entropy member, she is now his student, not to mention Mei and Kiana are still there.
If anything goes wrong, Himeko will probably blame herself for the rest of her life.
Furthermore, Himeko should personally thank Bai Mo for saving Kiana. She has already found out about Bai Mo's background and feels sympathy for him, especially since he is her future student.
As for the other coincidences, let's talk about them later.
"Kiana, take care of yourself, we'll be there soon!"
After giving Kiana a final reminder, Theresa hung up the video call, and Kiana turned around and looked nervously at the battlefield.
