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

The World Serpent appears to be a large, hidden organization; let's try to make contact with them first.

Anti-entropy... It's time to end this pointless argument!

Einstein, don't let me down!

A resolute glint flashed in Karen's eyes.

St. Freya, inside Himeko's villa

"Wow, he actually made Theresa into a game character!" Himeko pointed to the new Valkyrie showcased on the official website today—Theresa Apocalypse.

With white hair and blue eyes, her long hair was tied into a ponytail and draped over her left shoulder. She wore a black and white nun's habit, with the Apocalypse family crest pinned to her chest.

The image below reads: Valkyrie Oath.

Evaluation: White hair, short legs, not tall; cute, intelligent, but lacking in intelligence.

Of course, the sentence above, which is not displayed on the official website, is an exclusive gift from Luo Mo.

"Hmph, Himeko~, weren't you in there too?" Theresa looked at her with ill intent.

"You were the one they gave away for free!"

“Yes, that’s a picture of me when I was young!” Himeko exclaimed, seemingly unconcerned by Theresa’s sarcasm. “I never imagined so much time had passed.”

Once the white-haired loli lowered her guard, she grabbed Theresa and rubbed against her.

"So, Theresa, when will you grow taller?"

"Ahhh! Himeko, let me go! Let go of me!" Theresa struggled desperately in his arms, the huge waves deforming, making Theresa even more agitated, her expression becoming increasingly ferocious.

"Let go! Let go of me!"

In a room of the villa

"Mei, Mei, the game is about to start, look, look!" Kiana waved excitedly at Mei, pulled Mei over to sit in front of the screen, put her arms around Mei's shoulders, and rested her head on Mei's shoulder.

Dark purple and pure white hair intertwined, while Spain watched this scene helplessly from the side.

"Alright, Kiana, I'm watching, aren't I? Don't lean on me." Mei affectionately patted the white fluffy ball.

"No, no."

"The game is about to begin, you idiot Kiana!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1! Start!"

Chapter 24 Game Launch

[“This is Hyperion, report mission status!”] Himeko’s voice appeared on the black screen.

【一行字幕随即出现：第三次崩坏爆发至今2年5个月零16天2小时34分22秒】

"Major, the optical detection target is not visible. Mission risk has been raised to Level A. Requesting confirmation!"

[PM17:13 34 kilometers southeast of Canghai City]

Then, against the backdrop of a warship and a sea of ​​stars, the silhouette of a young girl appears. Two white braids sway in the wind, her movements exuding girlish charm as she steps out of the hatch.

[Then a close-up of his profile shows him hooking his right hand behind his ear, causing blue goggles to pop out. His blue eyes gleam with determination as he stares straight ahead. Without hesitation, he leaps into the air.]

[Leaping straight from the warship amidst the sea of ​​stars, through space, through the cosmos, through the clouds, the wind whistling past their ears. In the instant they passed through the clouds, a sliver of sunset sharply outlined the horizon where sky met sea, the ocean reflecting the clouds, its crimson-orange light painting the scene.]

A young girl streaked across the sky like a white shooting star, falling to earth. Sunlight bathed her white hair, her goggles gleamed with iridescent colors, and her eyes remained resolute.

Looking at the massive steel warship before me, its enormous steel body, the interplay of sunlight and shadow, created a scene where the ship seemed to be right in front of me.

Finally, as the girl approaches, the scene ends with a Honkai Impact 3rd icon.

The opening CG seems to transport players to a battlefield of beautiful girls and mechs. Amidst the starry sky and the sea of ​​clouds, a young girl leaps down – could there be anything more romantic?

After an opening CG sequence, the white-haired girl with braided pigtails performs a Nekocharge as a drone approaches. A giant cat paw appears out of thin air and kicks the drone, sending it exploding into flames with a loud "boom."

Next comes the game's tutorial. In a modern city, planes frequently fly by among the skyscrapers. Players will pilot Kiana, clad in a white-clad mech, traversing various platforms. They can jump from hoops to other planes to fight enemies.

Leaping and traversing across different platforms, you'll battle pale-skinned assassins wielding scythes or massive, purple-and-white Honkai Beasts. The attributes and attack methods of different enemies are distinct. The Valkyrie you control performs smooth, fluid movements—normal attacks, dodges, and ultimate moves—each movement conveying a sense of power, while the frequent appearance of cat claws adds a touch of girlish charm.

As expected of the promotional material that ignites the spirit of ACG action!

The next-generation action game truly excels in its haptic feedback.

Inside the bishop's room at the headquarters of Destiny

"Although some things don't match reality, it's quite accurate." Karen frowned as she looked at the screen, but it didn't affect the rapid clatter of her keyboard.

"From Kiana's perspective? It seems she's extremely important to this world. Perhaps, like a protagonist mentioned in a manga?"

"Your Excellency, would you like this coffee now?" Rita walked in slowly, carrying a tray with a cup on it, and stood respectfully beside him.

"And this game?"

Rita glanced to the side and saw the white-haired, braided Valkyrie on the screen fighting against Honkai Beasts and Death Warriors.

"Haven't you heard? I've been promoting it a lot in Destiny!" Karen was a little surprised.

"Ah, Your Grace, these past few days Lady Durandal has been constantly asking me to train in the training room. Although I've heard that Lady Theresa is involved in the production of a game, we haven't even started testing it yet," Rita said with a sigh.

But her brows were full of joy and happiness; Lady Durandal had finally come to her senses!

Although some sweat is inevitable during sparring, opportunities to get close to Lady Durandal are rare, and she certainly made the most of this chance! Besides, Lady Durandal is quite charming when she's glistening with sweat! Sweat dripped from the damp air, and she gently wiped it away with a towel...

It's a pity she has to go on another mission soon!

Rita was somewhat disappointed.

"The Honkai Beasts here are much smaller, which enhances the gameplay experience, but the people corrupted by the Honkai... damn it, how are they so agile!"

Karen's lips twitched as she watched a ghostly figure wielding a knife appear in front of her, slashing down with a single blow. Kiana's health bar in the game plummeted, and she frantically dealt with the attacking assassin.

"Overall, it's still a fairly faithful recreation of the original game," Karen concluded.

Thinking back to the drone that appeared at the beginning of the game, Rita felt that it looked somewhat familiar.

“Your Excellency, let me take another look at that drone from the beginning. Hmm, it is indeed our Schicksal’s latest drone model, still under testing, and it also bears the Schicksal logo.”

"Although we don't know why this drone appeared, its destiny is beyond doubt."

"So, is she really the Valkyrie of Destiny? Why is she attacking Destiny's drones?"

Rita and Karen exchanged glances, and Karen could only manage an awkward smile.

"Perhaps she didn't see it clearly?"

......

"So, you idiot Kiana, why did you attack our drones?" Bronya's inorganic voice came from the left, watching Mei play the game while Kiana snuggled against Mei on the right.

In the opening scene, she was the only one of the three who noticed it and immediately asked about it, wanting to embarrass Kiana.

The main reason was that Kiana was overjoyed by the scene of leaping down from the starry sky and was showing it off everywhere. She felt that such excessive pride was not conducive to Kiana's development.

It's definitely not because she criticized herself for being short when she was showing off!

"Haha, I... I must not have seen clearly just now, after all, the battlefield is so tense! Don't blame me!" Kiana blushed a little, but quickly recovered.

"No, this is just me in the game. I've never done anything like that!"

"According to Bronya's analysis, if Kiana enters the battlefield, there is an 85.6% chance that she will inflict heavy damage on our side."

"I wouldn't... wait, where did you get this data?! Hey! Explain yourself!"

“Heh, Bronya refused to answer.”

Mei listened to the two attacking each other's weaknesses without paying any attention. She continued playing the game, wanting to see more of it.

Based on the dialogue, she felt that her father's current location and the reason for his accident might be found in the game.

Soon, amidst the noisy chatter and Mei's focused effort on clearing the levels, the beginner stages were quickly over. Seeing Mei enter the main page, Bronya and Kiana also came over.

In the ship's control room, one can see the ever-changing night sky through the ship, with stars above and a sea of ​​clouds below, constantly changing its appearance. The clouds below are quickly swallowed up by the ship in sight, as if it is moving forward.

The mechanical ships all looked very high-quality, their black, glossy metal reflecting light subtly. But the most captivating figure was the girl with braided hair standing on the left, her face beaming with a sunny smile—it was Kiana. Kiana stood on the ship, one hand on her hip, and immediately spoke a sentence.

"Ah, it's finally my turn!"

"Pfft, Kiana is still as lively as ever!" Mei chuckled softly, and Kiana huffed twice in Mei's ear to express her dissatisfaction.

Then I opened the email and received some pre-registration rewards. Everything else was fine, except for that S-rank selection box...

"Of course choose me, Mei! See the White Knight? Moonlight Wings? Those wings are so graceful. She's nothing like Bronya, she hasn't changed at all!"

"Hmph, Bronya believes that a character should be judged by their strength. Dimensional Boundary Breaker looks very strong! Mei-neechan, choose Bronya, Bronya won't let you down."

"..." Mei was speechless. How could they argue about this? But when she removed the third armor, she realized—it was so revealing! A strange sense of shame washed over her, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

"Wow, this outfit is so pretty, let's choose Mei. It's just that the name is weird, something like 'Thunder General's Armor'." Kiana looked at Mei's S-rank armor, her eyes wide, examining it closely, tears welling up in her eyes as she pointed at the image on the screen and said to Mei.

"...It's the Lightning Queen's Ghost Armor! Kiana is such an idiot, how could she mistake that?" Bronya sighed, realizing she couldn't continue arguing with Kiana; what if she caught it?

She still needs to save Seele! Relying on Kiana's brain to learn quantum mechanics? This...this is just too unwise!

That's just too impossible!

Kiana felt a chill run down her spine for no reason. She leaned close to Mei's ear and whispered, "Mei, let's make an outfit like this and try it on tonight. It looks really good."

Mei blushed and pushed Kiana away. After selecting her character, she began exploring the side story of the escaped city of Changkong.

.......

"Himeko, who do you choose?"

"Me? Of course I'd choose myself. Choosing my own students to fight doesn't fit my personality."

"Yes, you're right. But why isn't the headmaster here?"

"You're not satisfied when Luo Mo is added to your character, and you're not satisfied when he's not," Himeko said helplessly.

"But, but you're all inside! I'm the only one who isn't. He must have done it on purpose." Theresa crossed her arms angrily, her cheeks puffed out slightly, and she pouted.

Luo Mo sneezed in the distance. If he knew about this, he would definitely point at Theresa and say that not only that, but there was something even worse.
