I am Möbius's sister.

Moreover, she also needs to participate in lotteries and open boxes. There are basically no survivors left in Changkong City, making it a perfect environment without interference.

After deciding on her destination, Sirin stepped into the spatial portal.

Mebius stood rooted to the spot, watching where Celine had left. The calm in his eyes shattered, revealing a hint of worry. In the end, he couldn't help but worry about Celine's safety.

Mebius sighed helplessly.

Xilin is both her sister and the only special case. Various factors make her attitude towards Xilin significantly different from that towards others, and she is also more worried about Xilin's safety. Although she did not show it in front of Xilin, it was revealed after Xilin left.

After standing there for a long time, Mebius finally turned and left; she had more important things to do.

Chapter Twenty-Six: Armored Doll Sirin

Changkong City was still shrouded in dark clouds, with thunder rumbling incessantly and strong winds constantly whipping the ground. As the Honkai energy level continued to rise, more and more Honkai Beasts were being spawned. The number of Honkai Beasts in Changkong City had now exceeded 100,000, and this number was still rising. These Honkai Beasts were all gathered in this corner of Changkong City.

Looking around, the entire Changkong City is densely covered with Honkai Beasts and their eggs, and new Honkai Beasts will be born under the high concentration of Honkai energy.

High in the sky, a purple portal suddenly appeared, its ornate shape surrounded by purple electrical circuit patterns.

A fair, slender leg clad in purple and pink-trimmed low-heeled shoes emerged from the portal. Moments later, Sirin stepped out of the portal, standing in mid-air, looking down at the Honkai Beasts that were steadily advancing towards the city center.

Fortunately, she opened the portal in the sky. Otherwise, if it had been opened down below, she would have been trampled by a Honkai Beast. Although being trampled wouldn't cause her any real harm, it would be a huge loss of face for a Herrscher to be trampled by a lower-level Honkai Beast.

After closing the portal behind her, Sirin flew to the rooftop of a nearby high-rise building. Gazing towards the city center, Sirin could sense the rising Honkai energy level and the increasingly active Herrscher reactions.

She is very strong, but... she is not invincible. Perhaps the Honkai Will misjudged her strength, or perhaps the Honkai Will cannot interfere more. In Sirin's perception, the Honkai energy level of the Third Herrscher is not as overwhelmingly powerful as she imagined. Even if it continues to rise at the current rate, it cannot form an overwhelming advantage in strength.

Even so, the Third Herrscher is still a formidable enemy for Sirin, a being that can threaten her life. Moreover, Sirin has a premonition that the Third Herrscher's primary target is her.

Rather than waiting for the Third Herrscher to come knocking, it's better to take the initiative and attack her now before she appears. Thunderclouds are surging in the city center, and countless lightning bolts are enveloping the city center of Changkong City. This is probably a defense set up by the Third Herrscher to prevent anyone from launching a sneak attack.

Besides the lightning strikes, the space in the city center also experienced varying degrees of distortion, with the most distorted area being the very center. This is probably where the Third Herrscher is located. However, such a distorted space cannot be used to open a spatial portal, and it might just turn a designated teleportation into a random one.

It seems the only option is to sneak in stealthily. Hopefully, the lottery and the golden treasure chest will yield some useful items for her.

After turning her gaze away, Xilin brought up the system interface. She planned to draw a prize first and then open the golden treasure chest, believing that luck should always be reserved for the best things.

After manually claiming the reward, Sirin heard a system notification.

[Congratulations on obtaining the title [Heroic Savior], which has been automatically equipped. The effects of this title are: each of the thirteen heroes increases your initial favorability with them by 10 points, and you receive a luck bonus when fighting alongside heroes.]

[Non-romanceable character [Mei] Affection +5, currently 55, level is friendly. Mei wants to be your friend and expresses her gratitude.]

[The non-romanceable character [Kevin] has a +5 affinity level, currently at 50, which is considered friendly. Kevin wants to be your friend and expresses her gratitude.]

Two golden treasure chests have been distributed, and two chances to win a prize have been given out.

As soon as the system notification sounded, two identical treasure chests appeared in front of Sirin, equally ornate and equally large.

However, Sirin ignored the two treasure chests and instead opened the prize pool interface. The prize pool looked almost exactly the same as when she first saw it, without much change. The grand prize was still the same dice.

Xilin took a deep breath, feeling extremely uneasy. She hoped that Xilin wouldn't give her another classic fashion faux pas that wouldn't be of much help to her.

While calming her excited heart, Xilin closed her eyes and pressed the lottery button twice.

A moment later, the system notification sounded in Xilin's ears. Xilin listened quietly and waited for the result of the lottery.

[Congratulations on obtaining the [Fair and Just Duel Domain], the effect of which is: after use, it will send an unrefusable duel invitation to the opponent and pull them into a special space for a one-on-one duel. The duel rules are set by the party initiating the duel, and the right to interpret them belongs to the party initiating the duel. The duration of the duel depends on the difference in strength between the invited party and the party initiating the duel.]

[Note: The [Fair and Just Duel Zone] cannot accommodate enemies who are too strong. Forcibly pulling them in will damage this item.]

Congratulations on obtaining [100% chance to catch a blade bare-handed]. The effect is: You swing your sword at the opponent, forcing them to catch your blade bare-handed. During this time, the opponent cannot do anything, and the item holder cannot attack the opponent. The effect lasts until the item holder releases the item, and theoretically, the duration is infinite.

[Note: [100% chance of being caught bare-handed by a melee attack] If the person who catches the attack is stronger than the item holder, the item will be worn down. The degree of wear depends on the duration and the difference in strength. When the wear level drops to zero, the item will disintegrate on its own.]

As the system notification faded, Sirin blinked. Although it wasn't the grand prize, the effects of these two items sounded quite powerful from the descriptions. However... why was neither of them suitable for stealthy backstabs? They were all designed for head-on combat to be most effective.

Sirin sighed helplessly. Oh well, it's better than the classic, fashionable little junk. For now, she'll just pin her hopes on the two golden treasure chests in front of her.

After closing the system interface, looking at the two golden treasure chests in front of her, Xilin reached out her small hands and placed them on the lids of the two chests. After making up her mind, she opened both chests at the same time.

Two more blinding white lights flashed by, and despite being prepared, Sirin was still blinded by the light.

When the white light disappeared, Sirin opened her eyes and stared intently at the golden treasure chest in front of her. Just one glance was enough to make Sirin freeze in place.

The first treasure chest was alright; it contained a cloak whose purpose was unclear. The second one... well, it was a bit hard to describe... It contained a smaller version of Sirin.

Yes, that's right, the smaller version of Sirin.

She looks exactly like Celine, only a little smaller. If anyone else were here, they would definitely think she was Celine's daughter.

Just as Xilin was wondering, the system notification in her ear gave her the answer.

[Congratulations on obtaining the [Shadow Cloak]. Its effects are: conceals your presence, guarantees a 100% hit rate while in stealth, and has a chance to deal double damage. After initiating an attack, stealth ends and enters a one-hour cooldown. If detected while in stealth, stealth will automatically end.]

[Congratulations on obtaining [Armed Doll Sirin], whose abilities are: preliminary spatial manipulation, possessing some Herrscher of the Void powers. When fighting with this doll, damage output will be increased, and energy consumption will be reduced by 10% when using powers.]

[Obtain the Armed Doll, unlock the Armed Doll feature, and open the Doll House feature]

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Is this considered an unexpected motherhood?

Armored doll Sirin?

Sirin tilted her head in confusion, her gaze falling on the smaller Sirin lying inside the golden treasure chest, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

If her sister Mebius saw this, it would be really bad...

It seems we absolutely cannot expose this armed doll in front of Mebius. The doll house must be a place specifically for storing armed dolls. When not in use, we can put the armed dolls in and take them out when needed, ensuring everything is foolproof.

As Sirin thought this, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up slightly. Just then, a creaking sound rang out, and the armed puppet in front of Sirin sat up from the golden treasure chest.

Her small eyes were filled with great doubt and curiosity as she looked around, finally fixing her gaze on Sirin. Sirin stared at her blankly, and the two identical-looking girls stared at each other.

A moment later, the armed doll Celine flashed a bright smile, opened her arms as if to hug Celine, and called out to Celine, "Mommy!"

Upon hearing this word, Sirin froze, a slightly embarrassed smile appearing on her face. She looked at the incredibly excited armed doll Sirin in front of her, reached out and gently rubbed her little head, trying to correct her address: "I'm not your mother, you can just call me sister."

The armed doll, Sirin, tilted her head and asked with some confusion, "But the underlying instructions say 'Mom,' so why call her 'Sister'?"

"Well... don't worry about that for now, just call me 'sister'." Hearing this, Xilin turned her head away somewhat embarrassedly. It felt really awkward to be called "Mom" by someone who looked exactly like her.

"But you are Sirin's mother. Does your mother not want Sirin anymore?" The armed doll Sirin looked at Sirin with a pitiful expression, her voice already tinged with tears, her eyes moist, as if she was about to cry.

Seeing this, Sirin became a little anxious: "Don't cry, I never said I didn't want you. Call me whatever you want, okay?" Sirin looked helplessly at the armed doll in front of her. Was she... suddenly a mother? It seemed she couldn't let Möbius find out now.

Upon hearing this, the armed doll Sirin's aggrieved expression vanished instantly, replaced by a joyful smile: "Great! Sirin has a mother now!"

These words sounded increasingly strange to Sirin. Come to think of it, the name Sirin of the armed doll in front of her seemed to be exactly the same as hers. So, was she simply called Sirin? Or...daughter?

Sirin imagined herself calling the armed doll Sirin's daughter, then shook her head. She decided against it and decided to just call her Little Sirin. However, for some reason, this name always reminded her of Alicia, probably because Alicia often called her that.

"Little Sirin?" Sirin called out to the other person tentatively.

"I'm here, Mom!"

Xilin nodded slightly. It seemed that the other party approved of the name. So it was decided that she would be called Little Xilin from now on.

But... how do I put her away? Sirin summoned the system interface. It's been less than an hour since the Third Herrscher appeared. She's going to sneak up to the Third Herrscher's location to deliver divine justice to her, so she can't bring anyone else. Although bringing little Sirin into battle provides a damage bonus, Sirin still gave up on that idea.

How exactly should I place the armed dolls...? With a thought, Sirin clicked on the newly added armed doll function, skipping the upgrade and evolution icons, and clicked on the doll house icon on the side.

Clicking on the icon reveals a large hole next to Sirin, just big enough for her to fit inside. At the other end of the hole is a small room-like space, presumably the Dollhouse, a special space attached to this world.

After glancing briefly at the scene beyond the large hole, Sirin looked at the armed doll in front of her and said with a gentle smile, "Little Sirin, Mommy has something very important to do later. Can you go over there first? That's your home." Sirin pointed to the large hole.

The armed doll Sirin paused slightly after hearing Sirin's words, turned her head to look at the large hole, then turned her gaze back to Sirin, nodded and said, "Then Mom, don't forget to call Sirin out."

"Yes, yes, Mom won't forget. I'll call Xilin out as soon as I'm done with my business." Xilin nodded repeatedly. "Go in quickly."

"Okay." The armed doll Sirin responded and jumped out of the golden treasure chest, walking towards the large hole over there, turning back as she went, seemingly very reluctant to leave.

The armed doll Sirin's actions made Sirin feel a little guilty, but she still waved to her with a smile.

Once the armed doll Sirin had completely entered the large hole, the hole suddenly closed, and Sirin breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting rid of her.

Then, Sirin's gaze fell on a cloak in another golden treasure chest. The cloak was large, hooded, and pure black in color. It looked unremarkable. After Sirin picked up the cloak, the two golden treasure chests on the ground disappeared.

Celine looked at the cloak in her hand and examined it inside and out. The outside of the cloak was black, but the inside was white. If she turned it inside out, it would be a white cloak.

Curious, Sirin flipped the cloak over. Once the cloak was completely flipped over, a system notification sounded in Sirin's ear.

[The [Shadow Cloak] is transformed into the [Light Cloak], with the following effect: After being discovered and disarmed, the user gains the Assassin's Glory buff, granting a 50% chance to hit the target with the next attack, ignoring all of the target's defenses. If the target survives the hit, they are placed in a vulnerable state, with significantly reduced defense, slightly reduced damage recovery, and increased accuracy.]

[If the attack misses, the item holder will be inflicted with the Assassin's End debuff, falling into a weakened state with a slight decrease in defense, a moderate decrease in hit rate, and a moderate decrease in damage.]

[Hidden ability of this item has been discovered. If the stealth state of the equipped [Shadow Cloak] is detected, it will automatically switch to [Light Cloak]. If you do not want to trigger the effect, you can unequip it before releasing an attack. Once the effect is triggered, it will continue even if you unequip it.]

As the system notification faded, Sirin stared at the [Cloak of Light] in her hand for a long time without saying a word. She then silently flipped it back over. There was no doubt that this item was extremely powerful. Although there was a 50% chance that it would turn into a debuff, there was also an undeniable 50% chance that it would turn into a super-powerful buff.

Sirin took a deep breath, put on the [Shadow Cloak] which had returned to its original form, tied the straps, and put on the hood.

After taking stock of the items and props she had acquired this time, which were stored in the system's special space, Xilin jumped off the roof and entered stealth mode while flying in mid-air.

Assassin Sirin makes her debut!

Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Assassination in Progress

In this city that is gradually sliding into the abyss of destruction, a figure draped in a black cloak flies through the air. She looks down at the chaos on the ground, dodges the flying Honkai Beasts, and keeps moving towards the city center through fixed-point teleportation.

Who is she? That's right, it's Celine!

To avoid the Honkai Beasts, Sirin kept using short-distance teleportation to get around. If the Honkai Beasts discovered her and she had to cancel her stealth state prematurely, she would really be at a huge loss. In fact, it would be best if she put on the cloak when she reached the edge of the city center, but since she had already put it on before, she was too lazy to take it off now, so this was the only way she could manage.

However, the ability to conceal her presence made her stealth process much smoother. It was just that the rushing Honkai Beasts flying around in the sky were a bit of a nuisance. It wouldn't be good if she ran into one directly.

After several close calls, Xilin finally arrived safely on the outskirts of the city center. She stood on a tall building, gazing into the distance.

The lightning bolts falling from the distance added a glimmer of light to the otherwise dark city center, but it was only a glimmer. Most of the Honkai Beasts surging from all directions gathered on the outskirts of the city center, never daring to take a step forward.

Through observation, Sirin discovered that the stronger the Honkai Beast, the closer it was to the city center. The outer perimeter of this group of Honkai Beasts consisted mostly of low-level Honkai Beasts, while the inner perimeter was filled with lower-level top-level Honkai Beasts such as Honkai Emperors and Honkai Queens, as well as Emperor-level Honkai Beasts.

Originally, there should have been more Shesa and Ashura here, but Shesa had already been killed by her and was naturally not here. Ashura was also wiped out by Alicia. Looking around, there weren't many Honkai Beasts in the inner circle. The number of Emperor-level Honkai Beasts was the fewest, and Sirin could count them on one hand.

However, there were some of these Emperor-level beings that Sirin didn't recognize, and they looked a bit strange, which piqued Sirin's curiosity.

These Honkai Beasts must be the Familiars of the Third Herrscher. Logically speaking, she is also a Herrscher and should have Familiars, but unfortunately, she doesn't have any. Sirin sighed helplessly. Well, if she doesn't have any, she doesn't have any. She doesn't want any anyway.

Although Celine said this, the slightly frustrated expression on her face betrayed her.

After calming herself down, Xilin turned her gaze to the city center not far away. There was still more than half an hour left. During this time, she had to cross this net of lightning to reach the very center, and she couldn't use spatial teleportation or get hit by lightning. It was quite difficult, but Xilin was confident in herself.

Taking a deep breath and giving herself a boost, Sirin leaped from the high building in a leap of faith. There weren't many Honkai Beasts left here, so there was no need to worry about being trampled. Besides, the Honkai Beasts were large, and if she continued to jump around at high places, she would be easily spotted, so it was better to go down from below.
