Collapse City, the beginning of the production of the anime version of Collapse 3

"Indeed, it is not impossible."

Mei also agreed.

Alicia finally stopped crying.

Sakura breathed a sigh of relief.

"Aliceia, don't you..."

As soon as Mebius opened his mouth, Sakura covered her mouth.

"Professor Mobius, please stop talking. I really don't know how to comfort people."

Sakura was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes.

Isn't it embarrassing to let someone who doesn't know how to comfort others to comfort them?

Mebius nodded.

Alicia doesn't bear grudges, but Mei is looking for opportunities to tease Mebius. Although she appears to be cool and rational, Mei actually has some evil tastes in her heart.

"But then again, why did Fu Hua and Ji Zi turn a blind eye to the Huang Empire's request for help?"

Through the two branch plots of Honkai Impact 3rd, Mei can see that Fu Hua and Himeko are not such people, and the audience can see it as well, so they are puzzled by their reactions.

[“Yes, Ji Zi and Fu Hua, judging from their interactions with the captain, they are indeed not the type to sit back and watch. At least they would not leave the envoys behind. They would not kill the envoys even when the three armies are fighting.”]

[“Maybe this is a problem between countries”]

Mei couldn't figure it out, and ultimately blamed it on the choices made between countries.

Alicia paused for a long time and wiped away her tears.

Unless Yaqing dared to kill Guanxing, she would never cry again.

Alicia made a vow in her heart.

The plot continues to play out.

[Guanxing quietly played with his wine glass and told the captain that he had killed the Pirate King and the Hero King, but there was still one person who had not been killed.

The captain swallowed, thinking it was Theresa.

"Of course not. Why would I kill a madman?"

It turned out that Theresa didn't believe that Rita was dead and always wanted to sing for Rita, so Guanxing ordered Theresa to be imprisoned and only allowed to sing for him.

Theresa couldn't see Rita because she was imprisoned, not because Rita was dead. 】

"So this is ah."

This passage also explains why the stargazer imprisoned Theresa and clipped the wings of the singing bird and imprisoned it in a cage.

"Theresa, I want to ask you a question."

Jizi had no classes scheduled and was staying in Theresa's office.

Theresa sat in the office chair, her little feet not touching the floor, swaying, drinking bitter melon juice, and asked: "What's the problem? Let me tell you first, you have used up your vacation this month."

"No."

Ji Zi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Why is it that when I opened my mouth, Theresa's first reaction was vacation?

"I want to ask who you were thinking of when you watched this web drama?"

"Of course, it's a spectator..."

Theresa blurted out, then quickly realized that something was wrong and quickly changed her words: "The audience loves the Saint King Theresa so much."

"Oh~"

Jizi stared at Theresa quietly.

Theresa felt a little guilty about being stared at, and shouted: "Ji Zi, are you still going to watch or not?!"

"look look look."

[Guanxing suddenly raised her head and drank the wine in the glass. A faint blush appeared on her face. She invited the captain to play a game of chess, and set up the chessboard without caring whether the captain agreed or not.

While playing chess, Guanxing recalled many things in the past as he placed his pieces. His breathing became heavier and more rapid, and his moves became faster and faster, and his attacks became more and more fierce.

When the last piece fell, the captain had already lost, but the wine bottle in Guanxing's hand fell to the ground.

As the sound of a wine glass breaking rang out, the captain stood up abruptly, his face full of astonishment. 】

As early as during the chess game, the audience had a bad feeling when they heard Guanxing's breathing become heavy and rapid.

But they still couldn't believe that the screenwriter actually dared to do it.

"No...it can't be..."

Alicia's voice became stammering.

She never thought that Stargazing would die, nor did she ever believe that Stargazing would die.

But the development of the plot seems to be hinted at before our eyes.

"Eh? Do you think that even when you're stargazing you have to smash a cup as a signal, and all the guards come up and stab the captain like a sieve?!"

Xiao Shi scratched his head.

"Xiao Shi, it doesn't seem like Guanxing wanted to fall, but something seems to be wrong with Guanxing's body."

Fu Hua saw the problem at a glance.

[The guards surrounded the captain, pointing their spears at him. Guanxing asked them to step back first, saying that she had something to say to the captain. No one was allowed to move forward without her order.

Guanxing sighed deeply, then smiled again.

"It seems that my time has come."

When the captain heard this, he remembered that Guanxing had just said that there was still one person who had not been killed, and his eyes widened immediately.

"What! Do you want to…"

Guanxing interrupted the captain's words. She didn't want to commit suicide by drinking poison, but the maid at the beginning poisoned the wine. One of the Hero King and the Pirate King bribed the maid and left a backup plan.

"They used their death to exchange for my death."

"Two lives for one, this is a very good deal for them."]

The audience immediately understood that it was not Guanxing who became moody, but she tasted the poison in the wine and did not want the captain to drink it, so she deliberately overturned the table and ordered someone to replace it with a Gu of wine.

【“When you found out the wine was poisoned, why didn’t you tell me right away? If you had told me then, maybe… no, there would definitely be a chance to be saved…”

The captain's face was filled with anxiety and confusion.

He didn't understand why Guanxing drank the wine even though he knew it was poisonous. He didn't understand.

Guanxing smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"So, did I allow myself to drink the poisoned wine because I was finally free of worries? Or was it because... I was sure that you were the one?"

Guanxing turned his head and looked at the captain, emphasizing those words.

"That...that person?"

Guanxing panted heavily and told the story of the past. A long time ago, when she was still the crown prince, she ran away alone, hoping to save the Huang Empire from foreign invasion by her own strength.

It was at that time that she met an unknown man who insisted on escorting her to fight against the strange beast even though they were strangers.

She still remembers the fish that person grilled... Why was it so unpalatable...

At that time, she received help from many people. All the changes happened one year after she separated from that person. The seal of the evil spirit loosened, and she had to take charge of it personally to suppress it.

In the underwater ruins, she often thought of that person.

"What is that person doing now? When will I see that person again? What will the future hold for me and that person?"

For a thousand years, she kept studying Mr. Iron Fist, hoping to restart it. To her, Mr. Iron Fist was the only thing left of that man.

She thought she had figured out the secret and worked out the formation diagram to summon the Vodka sisters and the captain. However, she didn't expect that during the three years she was stranded on the deserted island, she would occasionally see the shadow of that man on the captain.

Guanxing's body was shaking and about to fall down. The captain pushed the table away, ignored the guards' attempts to stop him, and rushed forward to hug her.

She coughed violently, with a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.

"Now... I can finally be sure..."

She raised her hand tremblingly and tried to touch the captain's face with her fingers.

"You are indeed that person...Although I only spent a short week with you, you have almost influenced my life."

"Although the appearance is different, the essence of a person is not something that can be easily changed."

"You were split into two parts when the formation diagram was teleported, and the time between your appearance and the time between your appearance and the appearance were three years apart... And this time, you arrived three months later than me... cough cough... cough cough cough..."

"If Mr. Iron Fist is as mysterious as she claimed to be in the past, is there really any way to change the ending where Rita dies in battle and I have to take revenge?"

"If there is anyone in this world who can wake her up, that person... can only be you."

"So, if it were you, you would definitely be able to change all this..."

The girl in his arms found strength from nowhere and tightly grasped the captain's wrist, breathing rapidly.

"If it were you, you would definitely find a way..."

"Save the Huang Empire...save Rita...save me..."

】

Completely breaking the defense!

The tsundere Guanxing had his own pride. Even though he almost died at the hands of the evil spirit, he never showed any cowardice and never shed a tear.

But now she grabbed the captain's wrist, like a drowning man grabbing the last straw, praying for the achievement he brought.

If there really is such an opportunity, Guanxing has already gambled his life on it.

The audience thought that this week's plot would be preceded by a long plot setup, but they didn't expect that the plots of the previous three weeks were all setups, just waiting for the explosion at the beginning of "Star Disappearance".

From the unpalatable grilled fish to a thousand years of longing.

Those trembling sounds, those gasping sounds.

It was like a steel knife stabbing into their chests.

"Woo..."

Alicia shed tears.

But this time no one handed her a tissue.

Women are all emotional. Even Mei, who is very rational, is still a woman after all.

When seeing Guanxing falling into the captain's arms, it was like a wounded child finding her family. Her last bit of strength disappeared in front of the captain, and even Mobius was touched.

[“You’re going to stab me at the beginning?! Isn’t there any foreshadowing at all?”]

[“Idiot, the plots of the first three weeks were all foreshadowing, just to prepare for this week. I’ve already bought the paper. Four of them died right at the beginning. I can’t even imagine how the plot will develop later.”]

[“Stargazing!!! My stargazing!!!”]

Crystal clear tears flowed from the corners of Alicia's eyes.

Guanxing finally recognized that the captain was Mr. Assassin, but this was not the plot she wanted to see.

why?

Why did you say it only after you drank the poisoned wine while stargazing?

Why can we only recognize each other at the end of life?

Alicia has many problems.

But now she couldn't ask.

Thinking of Lord Guanxing in Honkai Impact 3rd, and then remembering Guanxing in Strange Drift, looking at Guanxing grabbing the captain's wrist, Alicia felt her heart aching so much that she could hardly speak.

[“I still remember what you said to me then…”

"See you in the distant future."

Guanxing seemed to have used up his last bit of strength to express his wish to the captain.

"So, please take me to the real future where I can meet you..."
