Honkai Impact: Starting from Wandering with Kiana

Those who understand the times are wise; Kukulkan immediately knelt down in a humane manner and frantically kowtowed to Jiuxiao.

Don't ask how a creature with the upper body of a dragon and the lower body of a snake could kowtow; anyway, both Jiuxiao and Jizi felt Kukulkan's deep remorse...

“This one is definitely not the one we encountered before, and it certainly can’t be Mei’s familiar…” Jiuxiao said to Himeko, pointing at Kukulkan.

"Why? This newly hatched species is estimated to be over 300 meters long. Such a size isn't something that can be born easily..."

"Well, first it begged me for mercy... second it begged me for mercy..."

"Hmm? Isn't it normal to beg for mercy from a Herrscher?" Himeko asked, puzzled.

"No, no, no, every Herrscher has their own territory and their own clan. The Honkai creatures in Changkong City all belong to Mei's clan. Mei and I have a grudge against each other, so they will not obey my orders, much less beg for mercy from me."

Normally, it's already a favor if they don't rush over from 800 miles away to fight me, how could they possibly beg for mercy... You agree, right?"

Upon hearing Jiuxiao's question, Kukulkan wagged his tail rapidly like a dog, blinked his innocent big eyes, shook his head frantically, then nodded, then shook his head again.

"What did it say?" Ji Zi couldn't understand what Kukulkan was saying, so she could only ask Jiu Xiao what it meant and why it was shaking its head and nodding at the same time.

"Uh...it said it was brought to Changkong City by its cousin, and it has never even seen Mei before..."

On the surface, it's Mei's familia, but in reality, it doesn't belong to Mei's familia, so it doesn't seem to be hostile towards me...

"It's been able to grow up all this way because its cousin is Mei's direct subordinate, which is why it's been able to act like a tyrant and king in this area..."

Jiu Xiao scratched his head awkwardly; it was the first time he'd ever met someone like this. How to put it… he was quite unique…

"Tsk, this is the first time I've seen such a Honkai creature... I'll leave it to you to handle. I'll go check on the Hyperion..."

"Um…"

Jiuxiao walked up to Kukulkan, who immediately lowered his head. In order to keep eye contact with Jiuxiao, he even buried his head in the ground and then showed a kind and harmless expression.

Wow, this dragon is really good at licking...

Jiuxiao pointed to the hole that Kukulkan had created on the Hyperion; the damaged area was quite large, and it might even affect the operation of the Hyperion.

"See that? You bumped into it! You're very intelligent and have good potential... Interested in hanging out with me?"

Kukulkan shook its head; it had no intention of associating with a Herrscher it had never seen before. As long as Mei lived, it could live a life of luxury and pleasure in Changkong City, having whatever it wanted. Following Jiuxiao, who was also Mei's enemy… it feared that the moment it agreed, all the Honkai creatures in Changkong City would turn against it.

"Who told you this was a choice? You smashed my boat, and if you don't come to tow it back, I'll kill you and fix it."

As soon as Jiuxiao finished speaking, Kukulkan flew to the Hyperion's side and used his snake tail to hold the Hyperion back.

"Hoo hoo—" (Boss, what are you saying! My shaking my head means don't be so polite with me! Whatever the boss says goes!)

Chapter 294 Difficulties Abound

Due to the earlier impact with Kukulkan, the Hyperion's hull was shattered and its power unit was damaged. It lost power and became stranded on the railway tracks.

Fortunately, Kukulkan was willing to pull the cart for Jiuxiao; otherwise, Jiuxiao would have had to kill Kukulkan with tears in his eyes, skin him to repair the Hyperion, extract his core to replace the power reactor, and even use his flesh to nourish Jiuxiao at Penglai Temple…

The Hyperion is 278.5 meters long overall, with a deck length of 182 meters, while the Kukulkan, including its 200-meter-long serpentine tail, is over 320 meters long, with a wingspan of over 250 meters…

Another recorded dragon-type Honkai Beast, "Benares," is a four-legged, two-winged dragon that is tens of meters long and over ten meters tall.

However, it's a real shame that Benares suffered setbacks his entire life.

It first devoured Welt, but Welt then used "Yang Sit-up" to tear open Benares's stomach and escape. Benares was then severely injured by Welt's Mimic Father.

It was hit by Siegfried's Skyfire, and then its core was shattered by Shub's suicidal attack through the wound left by Skyfire...

Following Sirin's death, Benares also ceased regeneration and froze himself in the Siberian snowfields.

A normal Kukulkan is only twenty or thirty meters tall, but the one Jiuxiao captured was a unique species within the Kukulkan clan…

It originated in a distant era, the civilization that existed there has long since vanished, and its existence is now impossible to verify.

Jiuxiao once thought it was created from the image of the feathered serpent god in people's mythology, but he was wrong. The legend of the feathered serpent god was actually based on this licking dragon...

Therefore, this Kukulkan is the real "Feathered Serpent God" that people worship...

The civilization it once belonged to was destroyed for inexplicable reasons, and it, which governed life and civilization, was weakened to the point of degenerating into a reptilian dinosaur form.

Just like its volatile and easily angered nature in mythology, it was enraged by the beer cups thrown by Jiuxiao and Jizi.

Using energy stored up over thousands of years, it transformed back into the form of the feathered serpent god and charged forward seeking revenge.

Then he knelt down...

If the world hadn't been destroyed, if the death spots hadn't blocked the sun's rays, and civilization had continued to flourish, then Kukulkan, the ruler of life, the sun, and civilization, would surely have fought a battle with the heavens…

But there are no "what ifs," and not every Honkai creature is Janna. The weakened Kukulkan can only bully Honkai creatures and Himeko; against a Herrscher, he'd still be helpless.

Thus, the legendary god Kukulkan has now become the charioteer of the heavens, pulling the Hyperion forward.

Jiuxiao, accompanied by Penglai Temple, is now sitting on Kukulkan's head, eating roasted meat, gazing at the distant scenery, and inquiring about Kukulkan's situation.

"You're so strong, why don't you go and swear allegiance to the Herrscher of Thunder, Raiden Mei?" Houraiji Kyushou patted Kukulkan at his feet.

"I don't like her. They destroyed this world and wiped out all civilizations. So I'd rather be a little dragon and stay in this place where there's nothing."

You have no idea, I was sleeping soundly underground back then, but I accidentally let out a little bit of my breath.

Suddenly a white-haired girl appeared, wielding a spear, and hurled me out of the ground with a single thrust, followed by a brutal beating.

After beating me, she found out I was also a Honkai creature and let me go. But years later, that woman came back and beat me up again.

"If I hadn't begged for mercy so quickly back then, you wouldn't be seeing me now."

"Kiana has subdued you?" Jiuxiao patted Kukulkan's head, but he couldn't sense Kiana's aura.

"No, she fed me to a ray..."

Kukulkan was so aggrieved that tears were about to fall. He was first scared half to death by the aura of the Divine Na, and then scared half to death by Janna's open, blood-red mouth.

"Pfft..." Jiu Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud. So it turned out that Kukulkan was swallowed by Janna just like him.

Since they were both in the same boat, Jiuxiao didn't make things difficult for Kukulkan and put down the sword that had been cutting its flesh. Although Kukulkan could regenerate as long as there was Honkai energy and light, it was still a bit embarrassing to keep cutting its flesh.

Seeing that Jiuxiao wasn't cutting any more meat, Penglai Temple Jiuxiao knew that today's barbecue was over.

"It's a pity Seele and the others can't eat it, otherwise the base's food problem would be solved..."

"Ouch—" (I'm so miserable!!)

"Stop yelling and pull the cart properly."

Jiuxiao stomped his foot to quiet Kukulkan. Then he took Penglai Temple Jiuxiao back to the Hyperion.

Seeing that Jiu Xiao and the other person had returned, Xi'er came up with a smile and greeted them.

"Yo! You're back. How did your conversation with that big guy go?"

"The situation is not bad. We know some things about it. Although it is a bit weak now and is just for show, it is enough to deal with ordinary Honkai creatures. While it is around, we don't have to worry about Honkai creatures attacking us."

Seele circled Jiuxiao several times, carefully examining it. Then, with one hand on her hip and the other pointing at Jiuxiao, she said, feigning anger:

"I never imagined you were a Herrscher! You've been lying to me for so long!"

Jiuxiao chuckled and stuck out his tongue, "That's because Xier is too stupid..."

"Eat my punch!"

--------------

Getting a Kukulkan is probably the only happy thing that's happened these past few days...

Now, one difficult thing after another has happened.

Bronya stepped down as leader of the Firemoths.

Bronya felt that her own escapism and weakness prevented her from making up her mind to kill Mei time and time again, thus affecting everyone's actions.

That's why her family members died in front of her time and time again. If she had made up her mind to kill the Herrscher sooner, then the whole world wouldn't be left with only a dozen or so people on the Hyperion...

Even now, Bronya still can't bring herself to lay a hand on Mei...

Therefore, Bronya stepped down as leader of the Firemoths; in her weakness, she was no longer qualified to lead them.

Additionally, the strong magnetic field from the previous thunderstorm, the impact of Kukulkan, and the suicidal attacks of a series of Honkai creatures also contributed to the situation.

The Hyperion was almost 67% damaged, and its power plant had stopped operating.

Even with Kukulkan leading the Hyperion now, the Hyperion will soon be unable to maintain even the normal operation of a warship...

The dead spots blocked the sun's brilliance. Once the Hyperion stopped operating and lost its power system, everyone would become blind in the dark, groping around with their limbs.

Kukulkan can carry dozens of people, but humans and Honkai cannot coexist.

To avoid being contaminated by the Honkai aura emanating from Kukulkan, most people had to stay away from the bow of the warship and keep their distance from Kukulkan...

Chapter 295 Leader Penglai Temple Nine Heavens?

Somewhere on the bridge, Bronya was holding a weapon, watching the burning corpses of Honkai creatures.

After receiving Bronya's message that she was stepping down as leader, Himeko went to Bronya to ask why.
