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

Su didn't understand why this answer made his steps even lighter. Having confirmed a certain idea, he became even more determined to move forward.

..

It's a conversation from memory, after dusk and before moonrise.

"One in ten. You want us to gamble our only sword when we only have a one in ten chance?"

"...?" The soft voice was someone arguing vehemently.

“…No, I promise.”

"Because it is obvious... other plans cannot even reach one tenth of that level."

A soft laugh came from an unknown corner, carrying a hint of mockery in the cold wind, as if it were a sneer.

“I understand that he will definitely refuse this gamble... but I am not him in reality.”

"The long years he carried alone do not belong to me either."

Kevin said softly, a hint of determination in his eyes.

This was the biggest bet he had ever made.

Hopefully, he won't fail.

Chapter 73 Kevin is dead

In the Golden Courtyard,

Many of them showed surprise at Kevin's conversation with the mysterious man.

Even Ying Jie and his group were no exception. They naturally participated in the voice acting and knew the ending of their part, but that didn't mean they knew every detail about others.

Moreover, if we consider the characteristics of the enemy that will follow... indeed, it's not wrong to say that there's a 10% chance of success.

But what they were more curious about was which of them was talking to Kevin.

Many people's attention was focused on Vervi.

Compared to the other scheming individuals who have already emerged, the only one who hasn't made a move is Vilvi, who has been constantly clamoring to create a huge commotion.

"Kevin, Kevin... I never expected you to do something like this."

At this moment, Velvi leaned back on the sofa and sighed to herself. She shrugged, and with her hands almost like a voiceover, she naturally knew the whole story. She was just thinking—should she release the extremely wicked Velvi to face trial soon?

That would be terrible if all my personalities were criticized as well.

She couldn't let herself be blamed. While she had her own plans, Wilvi wasn't overly worried.

After all... whether you're a hero or a villain, you're always the one who's being attacked.

"That's normal. As you said, there are no other options, and the others are even worse."

Kevin said calmly.

"But we can doubt that mysterious person, doubt her motives, doubt... Sakura after reading the information."

She kindly pointed out other options, each of which seemed better than the 'one in ten chance' one.

Kevin simply shook his head and offered no comment.

"We're a team, so let's have more faith in our teammates!"

Alicia smiled and patted Kevin on the shoulder. She found Kevin's behavior somewhat novel, but... she never expected that it was her influence that caused it.

"Ah--"

All that met her was a cold laugh, but restrained by someone's tyranny, Mebius did not continue his mockery under Alicia's gaze.

She's not a masochist, why would she seek out suffering?

Does she really think she cares about Alicia? No way, she doesn't care about her even half as much as Klein does.

That's it.

Möbius turned his head to look at Luo Mo, a faint glint in his snake-like eyes.

"Could it really have been you, sister?"

Ling stared wide-eyed up at her older sister, Yingdao.

Sakura simply patted her head, her eyes remaining unchanged, yet tinged with a slight coldness, neither denying nor admitting anything.

Those who need to know already know, and those who shouldn't know... it doesn't matter. She will keep her promise and keep this secret.

But... why did they think she only found out about this at that time? Sakura glanced at her companions present and pursed her lips.

She had suspected Ling's situation a long time ago; after all, concealment... is itself a kind of attitude.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have come out of this civilization just to find Ling. She wasn't too surprised or doubtful. She didn't know the details of the process, but the result was obvious.

She wouldn't have gone on a killing spree upon learning this news, and besides, it couldn't possibly be blamed on Alicia.

"One in ten percent certainty... If even Kevin is one in ten percent certainty, could it be that the end has come to Paradise?"

The Lawbringer's gaze was heavy, and he had very few options left in his mind.

Sakura couldn't allow Kevin to have only a 10% chance of winning.

Even she could only manage a 50/50 chance... No, considering the scene of her battle with Suo not long ago, although it was only passed down by word of mouth from the old folks, she was still willing to believe that what the other party said was true.

Then... Sanqi (Sanqi) it is!

Does that mean Kevin is 70% confident in himself, but only 10% confident in the traitor or outsider inside?

Hey, what could possibly be worth seven of yourself?

The one who knew the law was somewhat annoyed, and scratched his head, becoming even more depressed.

"As for the end, there's absolutely no guarantee of success. Even if all thirteen of us went together, we couldn't make it in the Paradise environment."

Vilvi offered a friendly reminder, while also denying the other party's speculation.

"Are Herrschers of Corruption really that strong? I'm not stupid... I'm just a little strange."

"I understand," the Herald said helplessly, rolling her eyes at Luo Mo, who looked surprised. "What do you take her for?"

In the game, the main storyline is still clearly visible. After passing through the Thousand People and the Restraint, it's time to face the last Herrscher.

Although its appearance and methods are completely unknown, it's time for it to take the stage; there are only a few actors involved.

Did they really think she was just faking a victim and then piecing together the story?

Uh...it doesn't seem to make much difference; she doesn't even have any evidence. Thinking of this, the Herrscher of Knowledge felt even more frustrated.

...

World Snake Base

Kevin watched the plot unfold on the projection in front of him, his expression unchanged, but a slight ripple appeared in his heart.

"One in ten chance..."

He murmured to himself, a strange feeling creeping into his heart.

Indeed, he couldn't possibly make that bet, because too many people were watching him and waiting for him to do so.

The memory of myself... seems to be gradually merging with the image of him from the past.

That was before he became a savior, before he shouldered the fate of humanity. He had no burdens, no reason to take responsibility, and went into battle unburdened, unafraid of the bet.

But... people always change, don't they?

Just like he would never have agreed to the Stigmata Project before.

But some things won't change, like now, he's abandoned that plan.

...

In Paradise, Mei went to the outside world but failed and even fell into a coma before being rescued by Hua Zheng.

Hua stared at the unconscious girl, slightly lost in thought.

This reminded her of herself, who had also frequently fallen into a coma for various reasons... Of course, those were not pleasant memories.

Hua thought to herself, "I'll talk to her after she wakes up."

Although, given her current situation... it may be too late.

Half an hour later, Mei slowly woke up from her sleep, her memory still stuck on the faded monsters from the final battle, and... the appearance of a dark green life form.

It was supposed to do something, but Mei didn't notice anything unusual.

Then she saw the class monitor, and after blurting it out, she regretted it a little, because Fu Hua could not possibly be here. Considering the familiar scenery around her, it was undoubtedly the Paradise Hall.

Hua pursed her lips. She didn't know why visitors always trusted her. Was it simply because of her interactions with them on the outside? Perhaps... Project Fire did indeed earn her some friends and the expectation of trust.

But that's not the important thing; what's important is—

"Visitor, you must leave Paradise immediately!"

Hua said anxiously.

Mei remained silent, glanced at her, and gave a helpless bitter smile. "Hua, I was just trying to get out, but as you can see, the passage is probably sealed off, and I can't get out."

Then, she asked curiously, "Hua, why are you in such a hurry to tell me... has something big happened again?"

Hua Moran digested the information she provided, then sighed, deciding that it was better to see the current paradise as it was.

Indeed, there have been unforeseen changes... something unimaginable has happened.

It's so intense that everyone feels like they're living in constant fear and their lives are threatened.

Since there was no hope of getting out, Mei could only go with her to the Eternal Paradise, the mental space of Alicia, but the scenery inside had deviated considerably from her memory.

The falling meteorite and the flames it ignited relentlessly scorched everything in its path.

The flames spread wildly across the ground without any effective containment.

As someone who had fought against the other party, Mei naturally recognized it as the commotion caused by Senju, the hero who had disappeared since Alicia's death and had not appeared.

But why is the other party making such a big fuss now?

He was even angrier and more furious than when he fought her, and he used more power than before.

Is there anything more likely to provoke his anger than that phrase, "A thousand tribulations, please come over here"?
