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

"Sigh, I recently went out for a trip, which was also a kind of revisit to Daxu Mountain..."

The Lawbringer simply waved his hand, neither confirming nor denying her enthusiasm.

The other person always has this strange enthusiasm in some areas; if only the old-fashioned person had this kind of sentiment... what a pity...

But there's a good side to it too. Haven't you seen how much trouble Kiana's been having lately? Mei... she's a Herrscher and looks exactly like Mei. Either way, she seems to have a strong attraction for the other. And the two combined... tsk tsk.

The Herald of Knowledge couldn't help but sigh, and when he looked at Kiana again, there was a hint of pity in his eyes.

"It is Mount Taixu."

Fu Hua corrected him from behind.

"Heh—anyway, when I went there, the sign said Daxu Mountain. I guess it's been neglected for years and the wind has eroded away a bit of it."

The Lawbringer shrugged and said indifferently.

"That's not the point. Mei, if you want to know Kevin's strength, why not have a match with me? What's more direct than a fight?"

"I understand the law," the knowledgeable one said enthusiastically.

"But you're not Kevin after all..."

"But I'm from that era too. Who here knows more about it than me... Oh, Alicia, why don't you tell me?"

The Herrscher of Knowledge paused mid-sentence, because she thought of Alicia and saw her smiling subtly...

Well, perhaps the person who stood shoulder to shoulder with Kevin back then understood him better than his former self.

Although she was arrogant, she wasn't completely unreasonable.

"Hmm... Should I explain? Ugh, why do you have to make me, someone who's not good at fighting, do it?"

"Tsk—not good at fighting?"

Mebius snorted, but under pressure from Alicia, he stopped speaking.

But she seemed to have just heard an amazing joke.

Second place? Not good at fighting? Then what are you doing in second place?

"Hmm? But—the Herrscher of Knowledge is indeed strong enough to fight Kevin, which is something worth experiencing. Hua, after all, she has improved a lot in terms of strength~"

Alicia smiled and still gave Xiaoshi a positive affirmation.

She's still young; she shouldn't suffer too much of a blow.

"Hum-"

The Lawbringer of Knowledge arrogantly raised his chin, looking down at everyone present, as if to say, "Isn't what I said completely correct? How could I lie!"

Overall, her expression was even more obvious than Alicia's, clearly seeking praise from everyone.

"Hmm... Xiao Shi is indeed very strong."

Fu Hua hesitated for a moment, probably thinking of the teachings, and then praised her somewhat insincerely.

...

Out of the blue, she asked this question in the game.

"And now that you know all this... then I suppose you also know the fate of most fusion warriors, right?"

"Does this refer to the incident in which a large number of Fusion Warriors perished during the battle against the Eleventh Herrscher? World Serpent's records on this matter are vague and unclear..."

Mei recalled the scriptures she had seen in the World Serpent.

"Large number of casualties? The records are really conservative. It seems even Kevin doesn't want to recall that day."

Alicia's ears twitched, and she looked somewhat forlorn.

But she still revealed that horrifying story.

"The Thirteen Heroes Who Chased Fire" refers to the 13 fusion warriors who survived the disaster.

The birth of Yingjie was not a pleasant one; on the contrary, it was tinged with bloodshed and turmoil—a past that even the strongest among them were unwilling to recount.

"...And after that tragic ordeal of constraint, even the most unruly among us finally realized—"

"If we cannot unite as one, humanity will surely perish in the face of collapse."

"..." Mei remained silent, digesting the complex knowledge she had just acquired.

"It was at this time that a beautiful, enthusiastic, and highly capable girl stepped forward. Under her impetus, the Yingjie system came into being."

An indescribable smile reappeared on Alicia's face. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her expression a mixture of guessing who the girl was and praising her again.

"I think I already know who this person is."

Mei's lips twitched, her deep purple eyes fixed on the lively girl before her. She already had a general understanding of the girl's personality; someone who could elicit such unreserved praise from the girl...

...She's all alone now.

"uh-huh?!"

Alicia chuckled with satisfaction. Just as she thought... the other person probably thought so too!

"But you still failed in the end."
