Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

Liu Bai's goal is to eat his fill at both of the two places.

The highest level of technology in World Serpent is the technology of controlling Honkai Beasts. Mebius may also be involved in Fusion Warriors. In addition, there is an Easter egg blueprint called Honkai Ball. After making it, you can play with Honkai Beasts like Pokémon.

The resources available from Destiny are plentiful, ranging from Valkyrie armor that can only be used by female characters to universal mech warriors and precious potions—it has everything you could want.

Well, actually, for players who start with a male character, the most appealing aspect of Destiny is still the Valkyries...

A high affinity with Destiny allows you to hire Valkyries by spending money—but it's extremely difficult to raise a high affinity with Destiny.

Like the World Serpent, the favorability rating of the faction depends solely on the leader.

The normal course of action would be to secretly eliminate Otto.

Then a special storyline will begin. If the player has high reputation in the Destiny faction, that is, a character with high favorability, the protagonist will succeed to the throne after the storyline unfolds.

If the protagonist is not a chosen one, or if the chosen one is not a character with high favorability, then Theresa will succeed to the throne after the story progresses.

After Theresa takes over, the favorability of the faction will return to normal, meaning that you can increase the favorability by diligently completing tasks and quests.

Of course, if the assassination attempt on Otto is discovered, then they will be permanent enemies—but if everyone who sees it is killed, then no one will find out.

Moreover, the assassination method is also very troublesome. It requires shutting down the Destiny server first to prevent Otto from transferring his consciousness, and then quickly finishing the job before the Destiny defense forces realize something is wrong.

But shutting down Destiny's servers is no easy task...

The hard requirement is the maximum level, which is level 10 in computer skills.

Here's a joke: even the entropy-reversing quantum computer Aida, as revealed in the code analysis, only has a computer skill level of 9...

I reckon this version should include Prometheus?

We can certainly look forward to Prometheus's computer skills.

If Prometheus were a boss template, he might have a skill that breaks limits.

Well, while the normal skill cap for players is level 10, some boss units have individual skills that are not subject to this limit.

For example, high-ranking Honkai Beasts generally have a physical level of 11 to 13, which means they have a long health bar.

For example, Durandal, although her initial stamina and agility are all at level 9, the actual maximum for these three skills is 15, and according to calculations, her experience bar is half that of others...

In addition, since affection levels are relatively easy to raise, the typical approach for a "soft rice" (supporting a character who is overly dependent on others) is to try to win over Durandal from the very beginning...

However, on the other hand, Liu Bai himself isn't exactly a normal player; he can use alchemy to create breakthrough potions later on...

The mod emphasizes omnipotence.

If I remember correctly, Rita's three-dimensional rating should be 667.

Liu Bai also tried the "soft rice" strategy, but later found that it was too slow to develop in a mod environment and gave up. However, he still had a general impression of the attributes.

As long as Liu Bai can obtain and finish reading the intermediate-level three-dimensional skill training book during this period, he won't be afraid of Rita.

"It's hard to say whether this kind of confidence is a good thing or a bad thing," Ye Lan sighed.

"Don't worry, I'm very careful."

Liu Bai was merely evaluating this world through the lens of a game; he wasn't unaware that the two perspectives couldn't be equated.

If Liu Bai truly couldn't distinguish reality from fiction, he would have already gone and smashed the Elixir of Love against Möbius...

Chapter Thirty: Sibling Play

"See you next time."

Liu Bai watched Ye Lan drive away, then returned to his apartment, went upstairs, and opened the door.

"Welcome back."

As soon as Liu Bai entered the house, he saw Raven, who had taken off his hat, lying on the sofa watching TV.

There were a few empty beer cans on the coffee table.

Seriously, that black, tight-fitting combat suit is really sexy...

Should I say 'I'm back'—like that?

However, it was quite a surprise that this person would appear here.

"Whatever." Raven flipped through the channels listlessly. "Anything alright today? I'm all prepared for you to be bewitched by that maid."

Liu Bai hung the black coat that Raven had bought for him on the hanger: "I'm not at the point where my little head controls my big head yet."

"Oh? So the little head did move after all?" Raven's face showed a rare hint of sarcasm.

"My dear sister, do you really have to play this kind of joke on your brother?"

“…That’s disgusting. Fine, I give up.” Raven pouted. “I bought some food and was planning to eat with Gui Naifen first, but only you can use that pot—oh, right, just call me Natasha from now on, at least while we’re playing house.”

"Understood, Sister Natasha."

“Ugh… why do I feel even more disgusted…” Natasha sat up, her lips twitching involuntarily.

Perhaps I really did make a bad decision in some way.

"Then try your best to adapt, Natasha~"

"...I started to regret it."

"So, does that mean I'm moving next door?"

At the dining table, Liu Bai, Natasha, and Gui Naifen ate their boxed lunches while chatting about the current situation and also discussed arrangements for Gui Naifen.

“After all, Gui Naifen, your current persona isn’t suitable,” Natasha replied matter-of-factly.

Living together casually can arouse suspicion.

"Oh, and that pot too. Even though Rita might find it, I'll still put it in my bag when I go out and cover it with something else."

Natasha tried it, and the pot was much harder than it looked.

Although she didn't dare to test it too hard, her warrior's intuition told her that it was not something that could be destroyed casually.

So this thing is like a safe house for Liu Bai—and strangely enough, it can also receive signals, so at least she can call Gui Naifen inside the pot.

Moreover, it can also be used as a prison under certain circumstances, and people can't get out without Liu Bai's permission, which is quite illegal.

Bringing it along is clearly more beneficial than harmful.

"Speaking of which, Liu Bai, don't you have a new bracelet on your wrist?"

"These were given to me by Rita. They're from within Destiny." Bai held out his hand and showed the two bracelets on his wrist, one black and one white.

"Huh? You've already infiltrated Destiny's ranks?"

"He's just an unofficial staff member lurking around you."

“lurking around me…” Natasha seemed to have heard a joke and revealed a wicked smile.

"Whoa, where's the villain?"

"Where's the villain?"

"You two shut up!"

The next day

[Möbius: Little lab rat, come to my lab this morning]

[Liu Bai: I understand]

[Möbius: Wow~]

Does this person really see themselves as a pet?

Liu Bai was brushing his teeth while mentally complaining.

"Good morning, Liu Bai. It seems you don't have the habit of sleeping in. I'm going downstairs to buy food."

"Sis, why don't you try cooking for yourself?"

"I don't have the time—it's amazing how you can ask so casually."

Without intending to offend anyone, Natasha was actually a little embarrassed to take advantage of Liu Bai.

(...Wait a minute, is this guy trying to disgust me by calling me that so naturally?)

Natasha paused slightly as she put on her shoes, but still pushed open the door and left.

"They're gone..." Bai glanced at the closed door. "So, speaking of which, why are there those kinds of things in the gacha pool?"

Before going to bed last night, Liu Bai went back into the pot and did a ten-pull.

However, there are no characters.

Yes, that's understandable. After all, there are only pity systems for large and small stars in the gacha pool. Without a constellation system, there wouldn't be enough Star Guardian characters to guarantee a four-star character.

After all, five-star characters are produced much faster than four-star characters.

Therefore, what appears instead is...

【Bearing Heaven Celestial Summoning Ticket (One-time Use Item): After use, summon a Bearing Heaven Celestial to fight for you (Strength 4, Constitution 8, Agility 4, Special Skill: Abundance 4), lasting for 30 minutes. After use, you will gain a small amount of Abundance experience.】

Elite monsters receive summoning tickets from the Luren.

Judging from the attributes alone, it is just a tanky, weakened mage, but the "Abundance 4" special skill and the small amount of Abundance experience gained after use are too intriguing.

Is this fate?

Unfortunately, this is a summoning ticket for a Heavenly Being, and its destiny is also abundant.

Otherwise, Liu Bai would really like to try and see if he could learn it.

Ultimately, the idea of ​​"walking with the stars" is too idealistic.

Liu Bai asked Liu Ying and Gui Naifen this question, but their answers were not helpful.

Their answer can be summarized as follows: The star god didn't bless me, so how would I know how I got here?

They are called travelers on a path of destiny, but it doesn't really feel like anything to them.

They embarked on their destiny because of action, not because of destiny—well, the latter does exist, for example, in abundance.

—Ordinary people, whether intentionally or unintentionally, step into the destiny path governed by the "Star God" and become "Destiny Walkers" who practice his ideals.

Gui Naifen is a classic example of someone who stumbled upon this by accident...

Liu Ying wasn't quite sure, but judging from her attitude, she was probably indifferent.

I'll follow your path, but I won't believe in you. That's all.

This made it impossible for Liu Bai to even have fun with his own destiny.

It is said that although Fengrao Dam has many drawbacks... is adding wine the easiest way to destroy it?

Who gave this thing a certain "infectious" ability?

However, Liu Bai only has one life, and he is not planning to do anything reckless. He will use the Heavenly Humans as henchmen in times of crisis.

Having a blonde, blindfolded older sister as a henchman isn't so bad.

Furthermore, based on this logic, there might be other elite monster summon tickets in the gacha pool used as a substitute for the "10-pull guarantee".

That said, besides the one-time summon ticket from Cheng Lu Ren, the only other item worth mentioning from yesterday's ten-pull was the "one-time hypnosis pocket watch".

【Disposable Hypnotic Pocket Watch (One-time Use Item): Swinging the pocket watch hypnotizes any character who stares at it for more than 5 seconds. The hypnosis lasts for 10 minutes. Any action that violates the character's will, loud noise, etc., may cause the hypnosis to end prematurely (may decrease affection level after the hypnosis ends). The pocket watch is destroyed after swinging for five seconds.】

The rest were all things like "very strong binding ropes" and "high-frequency holy swords" that seemed to have some use but whose significance was unclear.

...So, did he install too many weird mods?

This severely dilutes the drop rate of useful items from gashapon machines.

Chapter Thirty-One: Möbius's Subject

After a simple classic breakfast of fried dough sticks and soy milk, Liu Bai hitched a ride with Natasha to Shencheng Pharmaceutical, and then headed to the laboratory under Gray Snake's guidance.

Throughout the entire process, Gray Serpent seemed completely uninterested in what was happening to him—even with his intelligence sources, this composure was excessive.

"My lord, the person has been brought."
