Honkai Impact 3rd is not considered a small opening

"Of course there are."

"Look at the world now, it's in chaos, people are displaced and in disarray, and the people are living in dire straits. Countless monsters are lurking in the shadows, ready to strike. If we don't hone our strength, how will we face the disasters to come?"

Hen looked around at the quiet and peaceful surroundings, nodded, and said, "An Yu is treating, so whatever she says is right."

"Large coconut milk tea, hot, 70% sugar, two servings of pudding and one serving of coconut jelly."

Two cups.

After saying that, An Yu took out the pocket money she had just earned and prepared to pay for Hen's bill.

"Stop, stop! What is this stuff? Is it drinkable?"

Hen originally thought that since someone else was treating, she wouldn't be picky, but two servings of coconut jelly and two servings of pudding were so sweet they were almost cloying.

"How dare you! This is what sweet milk tea should be like!"

"I just want to know, why did you buy it for him but not for me? So, love really does fade away?"

Alicia was a little dissatisfied; she had been singing for so long, and she was the one who needed to soothe her throat more.

"Since you're one of us, I don't think we need to invite you."

Chapter 29: Twenty-nine years old, unmarried and...

Alicia pondered for a moment, unsure whether she should be happy or not.

"No, no, why don't you buy milk tea for your own family?"

“I’m out of money. I gave my card to Sister Mei last night. It contains all my assets.”

Speaking of this, An Yu felt inexplicably sad. The thought of not having any money made her confidence inexplicably diminish.

Indeed, money emboldens heroes.

"...Le, you're not married and you don't have any pocket money, are you?"

Hen couldn't hold back anymore. He was very insecure when An Yu mocked him for not having pocket money, but he thought, "You don't have any either, so where do you get the confidence to say that to me?"

"What are you saying! What are you saying! There's a problem with Sister Mei's lab. If I have the ability, I will definitely go and help her."

No, I'm still so upset. I should get another card, otherwise this cheat is too inconvenient to use. I don't know who wrote the mod... there's not a single explanation.

Locking blood doesn't lock pain, and locking blue doesn't feel like anything to An Yu. Modifying money caused this whole mess today.

"Le, how much money do you have to help her? Blanca earns tens of thousands a month, and your Sister Mei must earn over a hundred thousand."

This kid may be a bit silly, but he's really obedient to the adults in his family, and he really pays them when they're paid.

"Hmph," An Yu raised her head.

"Fifty million."

Hen paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, but seeing An Yu's serious expression, he slowly stopped laughing.

He took out his phone and sent a message to his wife, asking if the lab funding issue had been resolved. After receiving her reply, Hen's smile vanished completely.

"No wonder you don't go to school. If I had that much money, I'd just lie around doing nothing too."

As for how she came to be here, he didn't ask, but there must be a reason. Given An Yu's personality and family background, it's likely that she didn't have a very good past.

But... fifty million is a number he could never earn in his entire life. No, his resentment towards the rich kicked in.

"But even if you had fifty million, it wouldn't matter. Right now, you're just like me, with only a little pocket money."

Upon hearing this, An Yu gradually lowered his head. That's how it is, at least until he gets the new card. But he'll be able to get the card today.

Looking down at the table, he slurped up the coconut pudding, and soon his expression became somewhat satisfied because of the sweetness.

Then a wad of loose banknotes appeared in front of him.

"It's alright, Alicia will take care of you."

Although she didn't take the money, An Yu raised her head again, glanced at Brother Hen with some contempt, and said nothing.

mark:……

Does it have to be this realistic?

"Although I know you two are good friends, Alicia, you should be careful. Men with money tend to go bad. It's better to keep your money in your own hands."

He wore a weary expression, and although he wasn't very old, the fact that he had no money made the expression surprisingly fitting.

"Is this why you don't have money?" An Yu stared at the other person with some curiosity.

He choked for a moment, then took a big gulp of milk tea, but when he looked at his daughter in his arms, only a smile remained on his face.

"You are still young and don't understand."

“I understand. Blanca must say that all the time, which is why you, a man, can say it so fluently.”

"But don't worry, don't worry, don't worry! The collapse hasn't ended yet, how can we have a home?"

"The threat of collapse still exists. How can a man of stature be preoccupied with personal feelings? We men should wield our swords and achieve unparalleled feats."

An Yu was about to jump out and strike a cool pose, but Alicia happened to go back to get her milk tea and blocked her way, so she could only stand there and slap the table.

"But is the Honkai really that much of a threat?"

Hen wasn't the only one with this question; Alicia was too. She was genuinely curious about this issue and why An Yu viewed the Honkai as so powerful.

While collapses are occurring frequently around the world, the threat is not serious; even the Moths of Fire are organizations hidden in the shadows.

Many people are paying attention to Honkai, but few people really believe that Honkai will become a global catastrophe.

"..."

An Yu and Alicia looked at each other, feeling somewhat awkward, as he didn't know how to answer the question.

He didn't know what Honkai was, only vaguely remembering hearing others say that after Qi Tian Da Sheng became the End, he could destroy a star with one blow. As for other things like cocoons, embraces, and even Mars, he didn't understand them clearly.

"No, no, I'm really confused. I don't know what the upper limit of Honkai is, but as a Herrscher of Honkai, the lower limit is that one person can destroy a country."

Even Wendy, though knocked down by Titan's punch, brought a gust of wind that swept across half of New Zealand.

But where is New Zealand?

An Yu searched online but couldn't find anything; only Australia was listed here. Luckily, she couldn't find anything, otherwise Wendy's performance would have been even worse.

"Hmm, I don't know whether to believe it or not. The world is so wonderful, it's better if such monsters don't appear."

Alicia was also a little unsure. An Yu's consistent demeanor made it difficult for her to distinguish between a joke and reality.

Especially regarding the Honkai, even after putting herself in that situation, Alicia still felt a little scared. Oh no, could what An Yu said be true?

"I also hope that monsters don't appear. Although the heroes may not have a chance to use their skills, it would be good to be safe and sound."

"But things won't change because of my will. Be prepared, Alicia. This era needs a new savior."

An Yu was not familiar with this era, but the appearance of Alicia and Mebius proved that this world was the same world as the Honkai Impact 3rd she knew.

All these strange phenomena can only mean one thing: the destruction of a previous civilization, and the story doesn't provide any clues about that previous civilization.

All I know is that Kevin is very powerful, Flying Fish is a pink-haired older sister monster, and Gray Snake is an elegant lyb.

But so far, let alone Kevin, he hasn't heard any news about Gray Snake or Flying Fish Ball.

"Although it feels a bit silly, you're right, this world needs Alicia."

"I feel like An Yu knows her secret," Alicia thought to herself, but she didn't seem to care much.

I'm so confused.

Although An Yu repeatedly expressed his hostility towards the Honkai, he didn't seem to harbor much ill will towards the Honkai messengers he mentioned. In truth, it's quite rare to find such animosity; to put it bluntly, the early Honkai storyline was...

However, An Yu was still rational. Since the previous civilization had been destroyed, it meant that the Herrscher had not been redeemed. And judging from Alicia's personality, it was estimated that the Herrscher really could not be redeemed.

"Actually, I don't know what to do either, but instead of feeling lost and confused about the future, wouldn't it be better to use this time to improve myself?"

"My strength is steadily increasing. Even if a disaster occurs in the future, I will have the opportunity to change things because of the strength I have gained. I will complete the prerequisites first, so that when it is time for me to save the world, I will not be powerless."

Chapter 30: Let's Go, Thirty!

The rest of the time was relatively ordinary.

An Yu wiped the sweat from her forehead, quite satisfied with today's workout results, even though in Sister Mei's eyes she seemed like a fool with no limits.

After taking a cold shower, I lay on the bed, looking at the latest trending news, or rather, the dark web of moths drawn to flames.

The dark web of Moth Chaser was not quite what An Yu had imagined. There was no bloodshed or violence, but there was plenty of gossip and scandals that couldn't be posted on the official internet.

For example, the untold stories between the evil doctor in the First Laboratory and the mysterious benefactor.

Speaking of which, many people speculate that the mysterious benefactor is Eden, since Eden recently stayed in this city, although the other party is unaware of the organization Firemoth.

At that moment, a message popped up on my phone; it was from Hen.

Trace: "Top Top"

An Yu: "You shouldn't have sent that message. Are you there?"

An Yu's phone rarely receives messages. Sister Mei doesn't like to send them, and he doesn't know anyone else. Apart from Alicia, he has almost no chat history.

So it was quite unexpected for him to send a message at this time.

Hen: "Clown?"

Hen: "Just kidding, but Savior An Yu, I have a Honkai-related incident here. Would you be interested in coming with me?"

Although it didn't comply with regulations, it was a relatively safe investigation task, so it was given to a hot-blooded young man like An Yu, so that he could see what a real Honkai event was like.

An Yu: "Interested! Interested!"

An Yu: "When are we leaving? I'm all ready."

An Yu's understanding of Honkai mostly came from his limited knowledge before his transmigration. In fact, he didn't really understand Honkai. His deepest contact with Honkai in this life was the previous assassin attack.

In addition, his recent training has been quite effective, and he feels that he has improved a lot.

Hen: "You should contact Alicia first and have her help me take care of the baby for a few days, then I won't need to hire a postpartum nanny."

An Yu: "You really know how to order people around."

Hen: "So, are you still going?"

An Yu: “...Go”

While organizing the legendary items and An Yu's medical kit, he also pondered Alicia's current job.

It's true that I can free up time, but it will definitely be very tiring.

…………

"Wow, what a sumptuous lunch! Is today some special day?"

Alicia usually doesn't go home at noon, but today An Yu told her there was a surprise, so she reluctantly came back.

Putting everything else aside, this table of dishes alone was already a pleasant surprise, as it was all her favorite foods.

"Mainly, something suddenly came to mind today. Alicia, we are best friends, but I haven't done anything for you, so I feel a little... a bit embarrassed."

"Why should I be embarrassed? You've already helped me so much. Does An Yu have some other intentions?"

Recalling what her assistant had told her at work, could it be that An Yu was planning to pursue her?

Wow, how can I reject someone without hurting their feelings? Alicia isn't currently interested in dating.

However, Alicia was pleased with the affection of others, especially An Yu.

"We're buddies after all, so Alicia, can you do me a favor?"

Her thoughts came to an abrupt halt. The phrase "we're all brothers" left her speechless. Why did she suddenly feel like she wasn't a girl in An Yu's eyes?

"Go ahead and tell me. Since you've prepared this whole table of surprises, Alicia certainly won't refuse you."

"Just don't go too far." After thinking for a moment, Alicia added, since An Yu's thought process was rather strange and she often couldn't keep up.

Hearing this reply, An Yu was instantly relieved. If Alicia said that, she usually wouldn't refuse.

"Could you help look after the child for a few days?"

Alicia: ...

"Where did this child come from?"

Mei Jie is a lifelong single, and An Yu is even a minor, not even 16 years old according to her ID number. There are three people in their family, and not one of them has a boyfriend.

"Gresch, do you remember her? She's Blanca's child."
