Honkai Impact: Starting from Wandering with Kiana

"Sinner, you deserve it!"

Cocolia smiled and opened her arms wide; she had no more trump cards left.

The Titan mech raised its giant fist high, ready to smash Cocolia into a pulp.

Cocolia closed her eyes. "But, at the last moment, I still really wanted to see my children..."

Cocolia waited a long time, but the Titan mechs' attacks did not stop.

When she opened her eyes, she found all the tactical mechs had been shredded to pieces, and in front of her stood a girl she knew so well...

"You...you!!!"

----------

At St. Freya Academy, Dr. Iserly dropped her act in the face of crisis. Although the timid Dr. Iserly was so overwhelmed by the oppressive atmosphere that she wanted to huddle in a corner, she still had to step forward in this situation.

She rushed to create a series of things, including quantum communication networks, quantum optical transmission technology, and measures to block the Herrscher of Corruption. Bronya and Himeko's eyes widened, and they instantly became Iselin's biggest fans.

With the new communication network built by Iserin now in operation, St. Freya Academy successfully took over the communications of the Destiny Organization and made contact with the Anti-Entropy members.

After that, St. Freya Academy became the new liaison center for the Destiny Organization.

All high-speed aerial mobile units accepted the mission jointly issued by Otto and others: to deploy the global connection anchors developed by Iserin to various parts of the world to block the Herrscher of Corruption.

Somewhere on the battlefield, Jiuxiao descended swiftly from the sky, pointing a finger at the Honkai beast horde that was locked in fierce combat with the army, crushing all the Honkai beasts into minced meat and burying them underground.

Before the rescued soldiers could even thank Jiuxiao, he vanished before their eyes.

Jiuxiao then appeared at the signal station, replaced the conventional signal transmitter with the equipment he was carrying, and then rushed to the next location without stopping.

At a branch of the Destiny organization somewhere in the world, Kiana landed from her aircraft, intending to take a short rest and replenish the energy needed for White Knight: Moonlight. However, before she could even rest for two minutes, she received a new mission notification. Kiana grabbed a few Honkai Crystals and hurried off to the next Honkai event location.

Kiana's long-range annihilation combat armor, White Knight Moonlight, has shone brightly in handling Honkai incidents around the world.

This should have been Kiana's long-awaited moment to showcase her talents, but when the time actually came, Kiana couldn't feel happy.

Missiles are flying wildly around the world, wars are raging, Honkai Beasts are rampaging, Valkyries are traveling all over the world, and the whole world is in a state of panic.

Those who know about the Honkai are in despair, but those who don't know about the Honkai are in even greater despair.

If the Herrscher of Corruption hadn't been a Herrscher of this era, there wouldn't have been a Great Honkai eruption that belonged to her... But even so, the Herrscher of Corruption still triggered countless Honkai eruptions.

The fall of Anti-Entropy further complicates the Valkyries' rescue efforts. Although Anti-Entropy's tactical mechs utilize Honkai energy far less efficiently than the Valkyries, their sheer numbers and destructive power against civilization far exceed those of the Valkyries.

But surprisingly... the number of civilian casualties was not as high as everyone expected; in fact, most of the buildings were destroyed.

The Herrscher of Corruption's attack gave the people time to prepare. She would wait until most of the people had taken shelter in air raid shelters before launching a large-scale bombing attack, and only then would she unleash Honkai Beasts to wreak havoc on the ground.

After defeating the last Temple-class Honkai Beast with a single punch, Durandal completed the installation of the research equipment for Iselin.

After several days of tireless transport operations, the final anchor point for the global connectivity has been secured.

After receiving the message that Durandal had completed the task, Jiuxiao pressed the button to activate the global connection system that Iserin had set up.

With global connectivity enabled, the entire world's networks are directly controlled, and all data areas are connected into a single entity.

Iselin, Changguang, and others from Destiny, together with Tesla, Einstein, and others from Anti-Entropy, immediately began their final battle against the Herrscher of Corruption online.

Chapter 162 Tripartite Talks

The Herald of Corruption, born in the liminal space between life and death, feeds on information and data, and can transform between data entities and physical forms. Just as her name suggests, she can corrupt data, corrupt living beings, and corrupt and control anything she desires.

There are only two ways to defeat the Herrscher of Corruption: either trap her in a data region and then erase and delete the entire data space along with her, or force her to transform into a physical entity and physically destroy her.

In order to trap the Herrscher of Corruption within the data space, Iserline initiated the Global Connection Project, connecting the data spaces of the entire world together. As long as the Corruption is transformed into a data entity, it will inevitably be within the Global Connection.

However, she still couldn't deal with the Herrscher of Corruption. Iseryn couldn't directly erase the global connection, nor could she. Once the global connection was completely erased, not only would the Herrscher of Corruption be destroyed, but all the data and information of the current civilization would also be destroyed.

Iselin Changguang and the others could only continuously reduce and lure the Herrscher of Corruption to designated areas, then delete the trap areas and kill the Herrscher of Corruption.

The others had good intentions, but the Herrscher of Corruption wasn't fooled at all. The Herrscher of Corruption split herself into countless copies, occupying various places in the data space.

Because of the fall of Anti-Entropy, Walter, along with Tesla, Einstein, and others, also arrived at St. Freya Academy.

It's uncertain how long the newly established communications will last. If the erosion isn't resolved, the fall of Schicksal is only a matter of time. After all, Schicksal's headquarters possesses technology far ahead of the rest of the world, but if it can't withstand the erosion, it's tantamount to aiding the enemy.

Otto completely severed the connection between the floating city of the Destiny Headquarters and the outside world, backed up all the data to the Void Treasury, and then changed into a Soul Steel Battle Body. He then brought Changguang, Durandal, and others to St. Freya Academy.

Otto and Walter, the leaders of the two major organizations, met on the Hyperion, but the scene was not very pleasant.

Looking at Otto's feigned gentleness, Walter found it hard to resist punching him. But as long as Otto didn't come running over and start a fight, Walter felt he had to prioritize the bigger picture.

Otto wanted to tease Walter, but with so many people watching the two leaders, he didn't want to invite trouble and end up fighting Walter. He was afraid he might lose control and punch Old Yang, whose body was already frail and weak, to pieces.

What Otto didn't understand and feared more than Walter was that Yae Sakura seemed to have lost her mind as well.

During the war council meeting, Yae Sakura, a council member, saw Otto, approached him with a puzzled look, sniffed him, and then froze on the spot.

Just as everyone was wondering what Yae Sakura was going to do, she slashed at Otto with her sword. If Otto hadn't had a Soul Steel body and reacted quickly, he would have been sliced ​​to pieces by this madwoman.

Although Kallen and Judah managed to hold Yae Sakura back and take her away, Otto was certain that if he had another chance to cut her, Yae Sakura would definitely be willing to slice him into pieces immediately.

Otto dared to dance in front of Welt because Welt knew the world couldn't exist without Otto, so he always tolerated it and didn't start a war with him. But Yae Sakura is different; she's mentally unstable.

After Yae Sakura was taken away, the atmosphere at the meeting became even more tense. Forget about the Herrscher of Corruption for now; everyone at headquarters was focused on Theresa and the group from St. Freya Academy.

Theresa clapped her hands and shouted, "Let me make this clear first, Yae Sakura has something wrong with her head. She doesn't represent St. Freya Academy!"

"Is that so?" Tesla, always eager for drama, stood before Theresa with her mechanical iron fist, confronting the people from Schicksal headquarters. "If you ask me, Theresa, you should just rebel and join us."

Theresa shrugged off the Tesla in front of her, rolling her eyes. She was perfectly content in Schicksal, with her grandfather being the Archbishop; only someone with a screw loose would rebel.

At this moment, Icelyn cautiously ran to Theresa's side and whispered in her ear, "Don't believe Tesla! If you follow Anti-Entropy, you'll go hungry nine times in three days, work 24 hours a day, and... Anne and Rosalia bully me every day."

“Hey, Iselin, how dare you talk like that! You’re an Anti-Entropy person too!” Tesla was about to argue when Einstein gave her a look that shut her up.

Theresa turned to look at Himeko and Iselin, giving Himeko a meaningful look. Himeko immediately understood and came over to take Iselin away.

Isaelin

Himeko carried Iselin away, whispering in her ear with a smile, "Let me tell you a secret, Anzu is at St. Freya Academy. If you don't work properly, we'll release her."

“No, don’t—”

Iselin was dragged away by Himeko. Einstein covered his face, walked over with a helpless expression, grabbed Tesla's twin tails, and dragged her away as well.

Iselin and Tesla, those two clowns, don't they even consider the occasion? Ai Yin says she's exhausted.

Although Iserline was also an executive officer, her timid nature meant she was essentially treated as a subordinate by the domineering Cocolia. Einstein felt that it was better to keep Iserline at St. Freya Academy than to send her back to Anti-Entropy and have her forced to work by Cocolia, thus increasing Cocolia's power.

(Iserlyn: Sorry, I don't want to go back! Entropy has nothing, and I can't even do experiments as I please! St. Freya Academy is much better; I've already become Theresa's shape!)

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

Outside the meeting room, Karen took Yae Sakura's sword, while Judah bound Yae Sakura's hands.

"Yae Sakura, are you crazy?! What are you doing? Are you trying to kill Otto?" Kallen questioned Yae Sakura.

"Yeah, I want to kill him. He's disgusting."

Yae Sakura paused, then looked at Judah and shouted at her, "Why didn't Theresa realize back then that a Divine Key like you would have an old friend! Rakshasa is Otto!"

"Hmm...is there a problem with this?"

Judah tightened the chains binding Yae Sakura. She didn't understand why Yae Sakura would want to kill Otto if Otto hadn't come to kill her.

"You bastard, my innocence! You and Otto should die together!" Yae Sakura lunged forward and bit Judas.

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

Otto waved for the Valkyries to put away their weapons, saying that they were all on the same side and there was no need to fight each other.

However, Otto will still settle scores with Yae Sakura after the Herrscher of Corruption is dealt with.

After discussion, it was decided that the group would split into two teams and fight on two fronts.

Some people used Feather Dust to enter the data space and fight against the erosion. It would be best to kill her directly, but if they couldn't kill her, they would force her to transcribe into a physical form and leave the data space.

Another group is lying in wait in the real world, ready to have the Herrscher of Corruption transmuted into a physical form and then kill it.

Chapter 163 She's got something wrong with her head, let her have her way.

Finally, through a vote, Fu Hua was chosen as the leader, while Yae Sakura, Jiu Xiao, Judah, and others entered the data space. Welt, Hui Huo, and Durandal remained in the main world, ready to assassinate the Herrscher of Corruption.

During the mission preparation phase, everyone was saying their final goodbyes.

Jiuxiao looked at Kiana, who was silent and full of worry, and gently hugged her.

"Don't worry, I'm lucky! I won't die."

"Who are you kidding?! You've died so many times without a sound! We've already lost Cortana, I'll go crazy if I lose you too..."

Kiana hugged Jiuxiao tightly, afraid that she would lose him at any moment.

"Kiana, believe me, when have I ever lied to you... Wait until I'm victorious, and then I'll return in triumph with Himeko!"

"The data space is a battleground for erosion... We must be extremely careful..."
