To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

Bronya glanced at her; she was gradually learning how to deal with Alicia, who was quite the entertainer.

So... as long as we can find something fun that will interest her more, that's enough.

"I'm sorry, teacher," Bronya said sincerely in her heart, and decisively sold Walter.

“Alice, we were just discussing why Walter is called the sit-up coach.”

"Walter? What happened to him? Why?" Alicia asked, puzzled and intrigued.

At that moment, Eden walked over, covering his mouth and chuckling softly.

"Eden, my dear Eden, tell me!" Alicia waved her arms, her big, blinking eyes fluttering at Eden.

Eden raised his glass and said with a smile, "Ellie, didn't you see? Walter appears every time. Maybe he's not... well... the MVP in the current civilization, but his participation rate is ridiculously high."

"Think about it, during the second Honkai Impact, apart from Otto, Siegfried might not have had as many appearances as the other. And, most importantly, he always looked like he was about to die, yet he still survived until now."

It's not hard to guess that while she was playing Honkai Impact 3, she also played some other games recently.

After all, games are said to be the ninth art, so if they can do storylines like the Second Collapse and The Last Lesson, she wouldn't mind giving it a try.

"Hmm...it does seem quite appropriate!" Alicia said somewhat awkwardly, recalling the scene.

How can someone be so active on every battlefield, and not just slacking off, but delivering fatal blows every time? They're incredibly tenacious!

Or is it just good luck from birth?

Alicia fell into deep thought: Why didn't the lovely Alicia have one?

...

Walter, who was feigning illness while lying down, was also reflecting on this issue.

During the second collapse, he also realized that he might have been a little too active.

He suffered fatal physical wounds, injuries to his consciousness, and damage to his core—he experienced them all.

He subconsciously touched his body, let out a long breath, and felt from the bottom of his heart that it was truly remarkable that he was still alive.

No wonder he's good at sit-ups; I suddenly realized the origin of his nickname.

"Walter, are you feeling better?" Tesla asked worriedly as he took care of her.

Even after suffering severe injuries, Walter was able to get out of bed and run around saving the world within a few days.

Why is it taking so long to get better this time?

Walter sighed. He decided to accept his fate; he couldn't stand pretending any longer.

However, looking on the bright side, he was about to pass the leadership to Bronya and retire, so he could treat this as his last task.

After some time of consideration, and taking into account everything she had shown in the game, he accepted Bronya's will.

Human nature is unpredictable and most vulnerable to testing, and fortunately, the game also indirectly confirmed his idea.

"Yang, don't move, you're not done yet."

Seeing Yang slowly getting up, Tesla hurriedly said, "Don't push yourself!"

"No, I'm much better now, I can go out for a walk." Yang Shu stretched out and said with a faint smile.

"Thank you for your hard work on the anti-entropy project lately."

Tesla had a nagging feeling. He was fine in the morning and was able to leave in the afternoon, and it didn't seem like he was struggling.

She shook her head, dismissing her own suspicions.

Yang is so honest, he definitely wouldn't lie.

...

Headquarters of Destiny, inside the office

“Unlike reality,” Karen concluded after reading the entire document.

What plans will Otto make next? A ripple of doubt stirred within Karen.

She prayed sincerely that no more people would be hurt.

Otto's actions are no longer those of the Otto he remembers. For a variable that might affect the plan, he recklessly and insanely uses missiles to bombard the heroes who just defeated the Honkai.

Karen simply couldn't understand this behavior, and would never condone it.

Schicksal has always regarded the Valkyries in battle as heroes, and it is impossible for them to do something like assassinating them from behind.

The scars of the Second Collapse are etched on the land of Siberia, where blood flows, but no evil is rampant.

However, the fact that Cecilia, not Siegfried, survived in reality also piqued her curiosity.

But upon closer reflection, it's not surprising; their injuries were all severe, and surviving was actually a stroke of luck.

Many Valkyries died in that great catastrophe; it was their valiant struggle that defeated the Herrscher.

Speaking of which, Cheng Lixue... has also been frozen for a long time. However, I wonder if those heroes from the previous civilization can find a way to stop it?

Karen pondered this, but to be honest, she wasn't entirely confident, even after watching them revive Wendy and help Himeko.

After all... Cheng Lixue's injuries were far too severe.

Chapter 34 Sirin, who doesn't really want to go to school

Looking at the entire Second Collapse,

After learning that Otto planned to resurrect her, Karen was surprised, but also inevitably curious.

Who doesn't have someone they wish to be resurrected?

But what methods could Otto use to achieve his goal?

And God? Does God really exist? I don't know if Sirin knew about God's existence; she didn't ask him in detail back then.

More and more doubts accumulated in Karen's mind; she didn't know where to begin her thought process.

On the surface of knowledge, the less you know, the less you encounter the unknown;

But the more you know, the more awe you feel towards the outside world.

"Mom!" Durandal's pupils contracted as she watched the missile fall, with Cecilia holding Sirin beneath it—a scene too painful to bear.

Durandal was heartbroken. From childhood to adulthood, Cecilia had always been the person she admired and respected most, as well as her mother and family.

It can be said that Durandal has always been moving in the direction of Cecilia, from her choice of weapons to her belief in fighting for protection. It can only be said that Durandal has been deeply influenced by her.

"Lady Durandal, please note that it was just a game," Rita said gently, bowing slightly.

“A game…yes, it’s a game.” Durandal took a deep breath, stopped exercising, and sat down to rest.

"Lady Durandal, why did you just now..." Rita looked at the panicked expression on Lady Durandal's face. She had never seen the strong Lady Durandal show such an expression before.

"Rita... Actually, after I went to the outside world, I often had some dreams."

“In my dream, my mother passed away, and my father is alive, but he doesn’t take good care of me…” Durandal smiled, not hiding anything. “It might be because of my mother who has always taken care of me, but I can hardly imagine what I would be like if my mother were gone.”

"Hmm!" Rita listened attentively, acting as a proper observer.

She took a deep breath and began to recount the events of her dream, which were neither particularly remarkable nor novel.

It's clear that it was just a dream, unrelated to either the game or reality.

But one thing they all had in common was the passing of Lady Cecilia.

"So...after that, I was always worried that my mother might leave me? I was worried that my dream would really come true."

"Then, Lady Durandal, do you still have such dreams now?" Rita didn't mock her, but instead asked with a look of genuine belief, her eyes earnest, making one unconsciously want to reveal the truth.

“I had a dream the day before yesterday, but I didn’t have one yesterday. Instead, I felt very warm and cozy,” Durandal recalled, but one day doesn’t prove anything.

"Warm? Cozy? Oh no!" Rita panicked. She wondered if she had gotten too close to Lady Durandal during her night raid yesterday.

But there was no other way. Yesterday, seeing that Lady Durandal was sleeping soundly, and after trying to wake her twice without any response, she couldn't resist taking matters into her own hands.

You should know that even if someone is not on guard against her, Lady Durandal's vigilance will make her react immediately.

She certainly couldn't waste such a precious opportunity as yesterday.

She replied, feigning composure, "Lady Durandal, perhaps we could try tomorrow. One day is not enough to prove anything."

“That’s what I thought too,” she said hesitantly, biting her lip. “But yesterday felt really different. I think I’ll go see my mother tomorrow to see if it’s just my imagination.”

"This...uh..." Rita couldn't say anything for a moment.

"Do you also think I've been wanting to go to my mother's side a lot lately, Rita?" Durandal looked at Rita, hoping for a negative answer.

“How could that be?” Rita decisively overturned her previous thoughts. “Lady Durandal’s intuition has always been very accurate. Besides, the truth of the Second Honkai Impact is essentially made public. It is perfectly reasonable for you to go back because of your sister Sirin’s matter. How could people think that way?”

"Okay, Rita, let's go take a look tomorrow."

"Um, okay."

...

"Speaking of which, would Lady Cecilia be interested in taking a look at the warriors of the previous civilization?"

Lomo asked the question, and then smiled at Cecilia and said, "If you'd like, they're next door, you might as well go and see them."

“But I haven’t fully recovered yet…they wouldn’t have any…” Cecilia hesitated. She had already learned about the other party’s possible true identity from Kallen and Theresa.

Although I was a little surprised that their dorm was right next door, it wasn't entirely unexpected.

"If Xilin wants to go to school, she should explain things to them first to avoid any misunderstandings. After all, no one knows how much they actually know," Luo Mo said.

"...Why do you seem more anxious than I am? Going to school doesn't need to be rushed."

Xilin said reluctantly, but she had just promised to go to school, and now she was too embarrassed to go back on her word.

She's going to take the Queen of the Sky, and she'll put off going to school as long as possible.

Going to school... I went for a while, but classes were so tiring, homework was so tiring, and I had to outperform my silly sister on exams. It was so tiring, all I wanted to do was play video games.

Celine thought helplessly, propping her head up. Even if she could give the homework to Bella to do, she wouldn't know how. Bella would make more mistakes than Celine herself, and she couldn't even guess the multiple-choice questions correctly. She's so stupid!

She began to criticize Bella in her heart once again.

If Bella knew, she would definitely be in tears. She's just a Honkai Dragon, and it's one thing for her to make money by live streaming to support her family, but she's also being asked to do math problems?

Each time, I only managed to resist the urge to tear it apart by thinking that it was the Queen's homework.
