Honkai Impact 3rd is not considered a small opening

She couldn't understand at all what the point was of knowing the little details of the other person's life, or what the point was of An Yu saying these things.

As for the satisfaction others expressed, she couldn't understand it at all; perhaps she truly lacked empathy.

"Then let's go home. We haven't eaten at home for several days."

There was something subtle in her tone. When Mebius said those words, she was even a little surprised herself. She had always hoped to have her own laboratory where she could live and eat, saving time as much as possible.

But now you're saying this? Is it because of the habit you've had over the years, even though you're reluctant, of eating at home?

"Alright, let me show you the masculine power of An Yu, the one destined for you."

Of course, it wasn't beef stew with potatoes. Sister Mei hadn't eaten so late, so dishes that take a long time to prepare were easily ruled out.

While Möbius was cooking, An Yu was running around. She realized she had to face something: now that they were reunited, she could handle it.

Will she really be able to calm down with the boy's repeated calls of "Sister Mei" in a few days? It seems... she will.

"An Yu, do you have any thoughts about going to school?" But I'll ask anyway. Although Mebius approves of many professions, she personally values ​​knowledge and beliefs even more.

"Huh? Sister Mei, what did I do to offend you? Just tell me directly."

Why is that?

“I’ll be 19 in 13 months after this year. I’m an adult now, and I don’t want to waste my time in college.”

The strong desire to resist surprised Mebius for a moment.

“You’re happy even in the army, so why don’t you want to go to school? Besides, you’re going to high school.”

Mebius recalled her high school and college years... well, she had absolutely no recollection of them; she had hardly ever attended school.

Her past was quite bitter; even a dog would shake its head at her. She only experienced warmth when she was a few years old, before her father contracted the disease and was still gentle.

"Because going to school can't save the world, rather than being a flower of the future in school, I want to be a giant standing tall in the face of disaster."

"In order to protect my home, to protect Sister Mei, and to protect this beautiful world, I must become stronger... Yes, that's why I don't go to school."

Mebius rubbed his temples, a slight headache in his eyes. The reason was a bit far-fetched, but it was quite plausible.

Just as he always believed he was the savior, An Yu also firmly believed that a catastrophe was about to befall the world. Möbius declined to comment; that's just how chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) is.

"You may not believe it, Sister Mei, but the world is about to face a catastrophe that could destroy it, so becoming stronger is the most important thing."

As she spoke, An Yu ran to her Flame Blaze Greatsword and solemnly placed it on the ground.

But his serious expression quickly turned into panic as the smell of burning wafted from the kitchen.

An Yu was noticeably quieter during the meal, as if the cooking went wrong and it had a big impact on him.

"Speaking of which, Sister Mei, why is it that after all these days, I only know about the Moth of Fire? Could it be that there are no other organizations in the world fighting against the Honkai?"

What about Destiny with its Valkyrie armor? What about Anti-Entropy that can take down Wendy with a single blow? And what about the strange World Serpent?

"...Can't the Fire Moth easily handle the Honkai events?"

Mebius couldn't understand An Yu's words, after all, the current Honkai was still too weak, and the resulting disaster was not serious.

It is far less valuable than the research value brought by Honkai energy itself.

"Of course not enough, otherwise we'd have to wait for the Queen... Wait, something feels off, the plot seems to be messed up?"

Let's not talk about Mu Continent. After all, An Yu never paid attention to the map when she played Honkai Impact 3. It's normal for a game to create its own continent.

But it's absurd that such a large organization as the Moths of Fire isn't described.

But Alicia is indeed there. What kind of plot was added after Honkai Impact 3rd?! Is it the world bubble in the event, or the civilization in Fu Hua's memories?

Oh no, I skipped the deadline back then, and I've really skipped my bright future.

If God gave him another chance, he would definitely read the text carefully.

"What queen?"

"It's the Herrscher of the Void. Um, Sister Mei, you should know about Herrschers."

"They are products of the Great Collapse. Each Herrscher has a superpower. Some can generate electricity, some can travel through space, some can generate wind, and some can copy other people's weapons and abilities."

Möbius: ...

"I haven't read any of your novels. I just suddenly remembered to scare you by saying you've stopped updating."

I didn't understand, and it was quite boring. If the Herrschers really appeared, where would their energy come from?

Void? Or the universe?

Without the explicit settings in various novels and movies, a human body can only store a limited amount of energy... and this limited energy, unless converted 100%, will not cause any trouble.

But looking at An Yu, Mebius suddenly choked; the other party's previous physical strength was also very unscientific.

Chapter 16: Sixteen. Mebius thought that individual extraordinary abilities were just so-so.

"...I believe you haven't read my books, because there's no such thing as a Herrscher in them."

An Yu calmed down and pondered the current situation. The timeline was clearly a bit off. Apart from two names, nothing in the Honkai world she remembered was the same.

Could this be the legendary ancient civilization?

However, if Alicia is from an ancient civilization, why would someone who only exists in memories have such high popularity?

I've decided. I'll study it myself when the other party arrives.

My thoughts wandered again. Speaking of which, the final boss Kevin seems to be from this era, right? And there's also Gray Snake and Flying Fish Ball.

It seems like everyone who survived this era is pretty cool, except for the weird older sister.

"But none of that matters. Just remember, Sister Mei, Herrschers are very powerful beings. Although they appear to be carbon-based, they are actually silicon-based beings and can use all sorts of superpowers."

"Oh."

Not knowing what to say, Mebius nodded, feeling that An Yu's thought process was rather...unique.

Leaving aside the possibility of silicon-based life, the scientific prediction that silicon-based life exists is that silicon and carbon share many similarities in their elemental properties.

In other words, even if silicon-based life forms do exist, they wouldn't be significantly different from carbon-based life forms.

Unless they chose a different path from all other life forms at the very beginning of their evolution—but that's pure speculation—you wouldn't even need silicon-based life forms to write science fiction in that direction. You could just write about carbon-based life forms that started from scratch and developed in a different direction.

The impression An Yu gives Möbius now is that of a clueless, eccentric author who relies on hearsay and wildly immature ideas.

"If you are very interested in biology, perhaps you could try to develop in this direction."

Having curiosity is a good thing; interest can often make a person achieve twice the result with half the effort in the learning process.

With her teacher in tow, An Yu's progress might be incredibly fast... who knows, after all, An Yu might be a bit slow.

If the other person is stupid, do I really have the patience to teach them?

"Not interested."

His wandering thoughts came to an abrupt halt. Looking at An Yu's unusually decisive refusal, Möbius continued eating expressionlessly.

"I hate going to school, I hate doing tests, especially those teachers who tell us to relax and then assign a ton of homework."

What's most infuriating is that after telling them to relax and exploiting their emotions, all the teachers coincidentally handed out a relatively small number of tests.

Damn it, if we stack them up, we'll have to make ten a day.

His mood dipped again, but An Yu's impression of the school wasn't bad, even though he could rattle off a whole bunch of terrible things about it.

"..."

"I see. Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

Möbius had not experienced a normal family education, so he had no intention of forcing the other person to develop according to his own preferences, and for some reason, An Yu did not give him the feeling of being idle.

"Join the army."

An Yu felt that the army was a good fit for him. His squad leader was a good person, and he was also talented and energetic. Joining the army to protect the world would be a good idea.

After all, the Honkai world is a world that values ​​strength. If one cannot become a Herrscher, then one should indeed join a large organization, learn its training methods, and strive to become an army on one's own.

Möbius: ...

"Besides joining the army?"

"Write a novel?" An Yu felt that her life plan was pretty good, but if her mother were still alive, she would definitely say that he was fanciful, did not care about the future, and had no long-term vision.

After all, many people believe that writing novels cannot make a living, which is indeed true. For the vast majority of enthusiasts, writing novels can only be a side job.

How old are you again this year?

"19."

Möbius: ...

"That's true, you're only 16, you don't need to think about the future yet."

"Do whatever you want. If you really can't make a living, you can come work as a security guard at my place."

I just don't know if, given my personality, I'll be able to tolerate the existence of a good-for-nothing.

"It's highly likely... that's possible," Mebius thought with a touch of sadness as he came to this conclusion.

Especially considering his not-so-wealthy reputation, who exactly is spreading rumors about him everywhere?

"Well, Sister Mei, you really... really are hard to evaluate."

"You don't verbally reject my idea, but you're also saying that you might reject it. Are you really only 24 years old? You're just like my mom."

"Forget it, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Sister Mei, you're an evil doctor, ptooey, I mean, you're a very famous doctor, right?"

“…You could say that.” After a long silence, looking at the ungrateful little fellow in front of him, Mebius felt that the other party was starting to lose sight of the difference between the king and the queen again.

"So, in your opinion, what are the limits of the human body?"

"During my few days in the army, I have noticed that my progress is visible to the naked eye, which would have been absolutely impossible in the place where I first lived."

Perhaps this is the talent of the destined one, arriving in a world that needs to be saved, thus opening up their own destiny.

Just kidding, he would definitely say that normally, but silly as he is, he still wants to know the reason.

With his eyes lowered, Mebius poked at the soup with his chopsticks.

"I don't know, but judging from your recent performance, you have a very high potential, and you might even be able to break the existing world record."

"However, I don't recommend that you show off your talent. With the development of firearms to this point, individual strength has been relegated to the sidelines and is rarely noticed."

"Just like Himiko, she climbed up step by step, but her strength was only for the purpose of better using firearms."

Mebius didn't look up, afraid of seeing An Yu's dream about the future, her eyes sparkling like stars, as if every teenager had fantasized about being extraordinary, saving the world, and becoming a hero.

The reality is that individual heroism is no longer encouraged, unless the policy requires it.

"I understand, I understand. I saw a news report before, it seems that a sharpshooter went to help on the battlefield, but was bombed by missiles that afternoon. Individual skills are indeed insignificant in the face of modern firearms."

"But there's Honkai here. Wendy, who was knocked unconscious by a single punch from Titan, was able to create a hurricane that swept through New Zealand. Why can't I?"

He's a man with a cheat code. Maybe he doesn't have the genius to surpass ordinary people, but he has a cheat code.

He has 99% effort, 1% talent... as the destined one, he should also have that, and he also has 100% cheat code.

Who is Wendy?

Chapter 17: Hey Seventeen, did you miss me?

"Hmm, Da Xi'er, you could also say Lucky Draw."

Möbius: ...

With a sigh, she didn't ask any further questions. An Yu liked to talk about a lot of characters and terms that only existed in her imagination.

An Yu was very talkative, and because of the other person, she had worked several fewer hours of overtime today, but when Möbius lay in bed, she found that she didn't feel any dissatisfaction.

Why? Is it because An Yu doesn't treat you like an outsider? Although she's a bit nagging, does she really treat you like family?

She didn't quite understand, but now she could only lie in bed because they had moved to a new house. The Fire Moth had generously given her a three-bedroom apartment with a decent size.

The main reason is that An Yu no longer has to sleep on the sofa, so there's no longer the time when she would lean against the door in the middle of the night, staring blankly at An Yu's unusually quiet face.

She did do that before; it wasn't because she was abnormal, but simply because she couldn't understand it.

Just as An Yu said, boring science students and illogical things, many of which, in Möbius’s view, should not have happened, even though she herself was seen by others as a demon tempting others into hell.

But she enjoys the sense of the unknown, just like when she studies biology, discovering new aspects, and even breaking existing definitions. This kind of discovery is what makes her most happy.

But there are some things she prefers that sense of familiarity with.

I woke up the next morning.
