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

He roared, and invisible waves rolled.

He exerted pressure, and countless laser cannons surged from the side, while the dark purple karmic seeds coiled and shattered on the ice before him.

"Get out of my way!!"

Qianjie fought it on the ice, his hands gripping its massive arm, straining wildly, trying to tear it apart completely.

It let out mournful cries, and the laser beams around it became increasingly dense, but they were all blocked by a red firebird.

Compared to Qian Jie, her flames are gentler and more vibrant, and she excels at defense and delaying.

Life is a journey of ups and downs, and success is nothing more than failure followed by triumph.

Fifty thousand years later, she has reached the highest level of strength among the heroes.

Fu Hua appeared, throwing a punch forward with one hand and a gesture backward with the other, deftly blocking all of the opponent's attacks with agile movements.

"break--"

She gave a low hum, and all the various types of business on the scene were quickly broken apart.

The opponent's intention to destroy the ground was completely thwarted, and Qianjie's side also did not have much success. She had already used all her strength, but the opponent was too big, and in the end, she only left traces of flames on her.

"cut--"

Qianjie wiped the blood off his hands, feeling fairly satisfied with the warm-up match.

Unfortunately... the opponent's resistance to fire was too high, and brute force alone couldn't tear off that arm. This is truly...

"Hahahaha—Come on, let's have another round!"

This time, he channeled all the flames into his fist, charged up the power, and slammed a punch into her body, causing the flames to explode rapidly within her.

The enormous creature in front of them emitted faint black smoke from its mouth and let out an even more mournful howl.

"Dang——dang——"

Two rapid chimes rang out, but the sound did not originate from this ice surface. It seems that Suo also felt the energy being rapidly depleted and was becoming anxious.

Fu Hua and Qian Jie frowned and looked up at the higher sky.

This place isn't the real one either... After all, the sound of the bell didn't originate from here.

Before they could react, two long-accumulated purple beams of light shot down from the sky, one toward Kevin who was rapidly continuing upwards, and the other toward Qianjie and Fu Hua.

The beam of light possessed unparalleled power, and the energy it contained was exceptionally concentrated.

"...Hoo." Kevin remained unmoved by the beam of light in front of him, continuing to stride upwards, step by step, as if the entire space was responding to his rhythm.

Some kind of change is also taking place in him.

He had made up his mind about this before he even arrived.

—Man-made collapse, the strongest form.

Blue wings gradually grew from his body, his black skeleton spoke of something ominous, milky white horns on his head slowly extended, his clothes were torn apart by this force, and his hands were no longer human fingers, but sharp claws.

His pupils also changed. He looked up at the sky, at the massive body that was still vaguely visible in the darkness, and the raindrops around him turned into mist.

The energy beam froze and floated in the air in the form of energy.

It is said that the Judgment of Heavenly Fire is a deadly weapon to others, but to Kevin, it is nothing more than something that balances his own temperature and can be easily broken.

The humans of the previous civilization did everything they could to forge it into a weapon exclusively for Kevin, but Kevin's strongest attack has nothing to do with it.

Another beam of light arrived extremely fast, so fast that Qian Jie, who had just been charging up his attack for the monster in front of him, couldn't dodge it. Fu Hua put her hands into a Tai Chi stance, preparing to forcefully receive the attack.

But they still have a companion.

On Vita's side, Alicia quietly released her finger, and the transparent arrow seemed to traverse space, directly reaching the tip of the beam.

Fast, too fast.

Unexpectedly, when Alicia conjured another arrow on her bow and lightly aimed it upwards, the beam of light from the Thousand Tribulations Fu Hua turned into a purple crystal flower. Before she could even appreciate its beauty, it exploded with a loud bang.

The first third of the beam transformed into magnificent crystals, a breathtaking sight. The laser beam behind it barely managed to shatter them, and the beautiful, dazzling crystals, like a rain of flowers from the sky, refracted seven colors and drifted down gracefully.

After shattering the crystals along the way, the beam of light had become a faint point, so small that it sent chills down one's spine.

"Hmph—it's that woman."

Qianjie casually dispersed the last of the powerful attacks, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes. The opponent's control was getting stronger and stronger, and the control was just right. It was a pity, he wondered what it would feel like to face him in person.

That damned woman, I never even touched the hem of her clothes during our fight.

With just a simple arrow, he directly shattered the opponent's attack from afar.

Vita's eyebrows twitched wildly as she looked at the girl who had been talking to her the whole way. She had thought the girl was really not good at fighting.

"Hmm?~ But I'm afraid I'll have to go now. It's so high~ I wonder what will happen if Wilvi comes here?"

She straightened her bangs, glanced at the higher spot where Suo stood, smiled, and with a whoosh...

She then leaped out and quickly flew up the ice bridge that Kevin had laid out, heading straight for the gods in the heavens.

She nimbly dodged the attacks of birds in the air, and when there was no way to go, she fired arrows directly at her feet, which condensed into crystal flowers and moved forward quickly.

Every now and then, she would quickly fire a few arrows, aiming straight at the figure in the black hole. After all... it's only polite to retaliate.

A purple light flashed inside, and several huge crystal blocks fell from the sky. A cold voice came from Suo, followed by an even more intense attack.

"You mortals... deserve to die!"

Fu Hua and Qian Jie also sped up their pace. Fu Hua's fist techniques from the Divine Continent were seamlessly integrated and all struck the monster.

Qian Jie, however, became even more deranged, showing no concern for energy supply and recklessly slamming pillars of fire into her body, tearing her skin and flesh. Sometimes, he even disregarded Fu Hua's location, engulfing her along with the aftershocks.

The monster's originally pale face was now burned red, and its body was covered with dense, charred marks.

Finally, it relented, its white tentacles moving away from the other side and slowly dragging towards the black hole in the sky, along with the three monsters above.

The four of them continued their pursuit of the sky in their own ways, without the slightest hint of compromise.

...

Inside the observation cabin of the Ark, the two were gazing at the distant scenery.

Vita remarked with a touch of melancholy, "That's terrifying, isn't it? So is getting completely dominated on the sidelines!"

"Hmm... I feel like Brother Qianjie's strength has weakened. Why is that? The other three are exactly as I remember them..."

"Speaking of which, Alicia and Qianjie's colors haven't changed, but Hua and Kevin's... no, why haven't they changed after all this time?"

Gretchen pondered deeply, watching the black hole in the sky close. Despite trusting her companions' abilities, a sense of unease still crept into her heart.

"Oh dear, I don't know either~ You can ask them yourselves later."

"Hmm... that's true. What did Uncle Kevin give me? It feels like... it's Sister Wilvi's work. Well, there's also an infinity symbol here, so it must be a joint work of the two of them."

"Vita doesn't know~ but I saw them using communicators just now, why don't you try it?"

Vita looked up at the sky, waving her index finger in the air, and tried to offer a suggestion from the side.

“Hmm…” Gretchen lowered her head and pressed a button with some doubt. After all, the device was quite simple and there weren’t many buttons to press.

Out of trust for her companions, Virvi always gave Kevin or Qianjie the simplest devices, the kind that were also heat- and cold-resistant.

Although the situation was extremely urgent, why was she unharmed?

...Does everyone still treat her like a child?

As Gretchen pressed the button, a hissing sound came from the other end, indicating that even under natural disasters, flooding, and extreme cold, the quality was quite reliable.

“Gresh, don’t listen to your Aunt Alicia’s nonsense. I can accept you calling me sister or even auntie…”

In her haste, she only heard Grandma Mebius's voice coming from inside, along with a series of sounds of rummaging through drawers and cabinets, as if they were hurriedly snatching something from someone else's hands.

"But, don't call me..."

“Long time no see, Grandma Möbius.” Gretchen’s eyes lit up; she knew who it was just by hearing the voice.

Although Möbius had a poor reputation, especially since she sometimes read materials about him and portrayed him as a devil, Gretchen was a different person; in her eyes, Gretchen was a very kind elder.

Although Aponia's mother always says not to get too close to others, Kosmo and Möbius's grandmothers also always say not to get close to Aponia.

really weird……

Even now, she still doesn't understand the relationship. Everyone's colors are so beautiful.

“Grandma…” This was the last word she uttered, and then, Mebius’s voice suddenly dropped, followed by a gnashing of teeth at someone. “Damn it, damn it all, Ai Li Shi Ya!”

Even so, she understood that the other party was unlikely to be in any trouble.

Her eyes were somewhat depressed. She casually tossed the communicator to Velvi. Kosmo, who was standing next to her, was clearly tempted, and Aponia also quietly reached out her hand. Velvi, of course, would not refuse.

Unexpectedly, the communicator was knocked away by the three of them at the same time, and landed right in the hands of Pado who was standing nearby.

She blinked, glanced at her companions, Kosmo and Aponia looked away, and Pado hesitated for a moment before taking it.

"Hehe, long time no see, Gretchen... Did you miss me? Do you still have the lucky coin I gave you?"

"Hey, it's Sister Pado—I'm sorry, I haven't seen her since the Ark crashed..."

"Oh, it's alright, it's alright, we'll just give you another one."

Chapter 65 The Death of Suzaku (19/24)

After a brief exchange, they quickly returned to the main topic.

After all, they're still fighting to the death over there, so it's not appropriate to chat idly here. We need to keep it brief.

In the end, it was better for Vervière to take the microphone and deliver the message.

“Listen, Gretchen, you don’t have to keep watching Vita. It’s not necessarily a bad thing for her to gain power. In fact, it’s the best option for you in the future we see.”

"I've seen the current state of the Ark. The main functions are fine, but there are quite a few parts that need repair. The other side... really knows how to dismantle things."

"You might be forced to stay there for a while, so you can try to build a good relationship with him. Don't worry about Kevin, he'll handle it, don't worry."

“...Uh, oh, okay, okay, Sister Wilvi. I understand.”

Greta gave Vita a strange look. Vita had heard the voice clearly just now, but Greta breathed a sigh of relief. At least she didn't have to worry about being discarded after using someone.

As for the opponent, their abilities are too overpowered, and those four are so strong... and there might be more to come. It's better not to be their enemy; she can't beat them.

All she wanted was for the city to be free from the shackles of the gods, nothing more.
