Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

Kiana once said this with righteous indignation, while Kiana, who was invisible alongside the Chief Administrator, looked at her past self and scratched the back of her head somewhat embarrassedly. She felt that if she continued to look, her past self seemed to be full of embarrassing moments.

"Kiana, if you keep going like this, you'll always be a C-rank Valkyrie. Hurry up and go!"

But just as Xia Yuan was imitating Principal Theresa's tone of voice, he suddenly felt his body begin to repeat itself uncontrollably.

"teriteri, teriteri, teriteri..."

"Hey, Auntie's here... cough cough... Headmaster, what's wrong?"

Kiana's stats started to become extremely unstable, as if some unknown bug had occurred, causing her to stagnate.

Chief Administrator Ai Hyperion looked quite solemn.

Just now, the data representing Principal Theresa Academy was attacked by an unknown virus other than the Herrscher of Corruption.

Theresa's lips began to curl slightly upwards, and her eyes became vacant. Xia Yuan was forcibly ejected from Theresa's data. Fortunately, Qi Bao, a spectator, caught Xia Yuan just as he was about to fall.

"Hey, Xia Yuan, what brings you out here? Were you having a good time scolding me as Theresa earlier? Now it's my turn to teach you a lesson."

Feeling the softness behind him, Xia Yuan quickly stopped Kiana, "Don't be silly, Miss Administrator, what's going on?"

“Mr. Xia Yuan, as you can see, Theresa is currently infected with a virus called ‘Theresa the Fool.’ Because the Herrscher of Corruption’s constant erosion greatly weakens the Honkai Impact 3rd system’s defense mechanism, other viruses will also take advantage of the situation.”

Just as the administrator was manipulating the virtual screen in front of her to repair the data as much as possible, the Deli-like virus had already completed its intrusion.

"teriteri, teriteri, teriteri..."

After completing her transformation, Delilah first looked at Kiana, who was standing motionless to the side.

The data about Kiana was also constantly assimilated. One person infected Delilah spread the virus to two others. After Kiana was assimilated into the Delilah virus, they began to multiply and divide like a virus.

They've come...they've come, they are our slaves.

The Delicious Virus is splitting.

"Mr. Xia Yuan, I have some bad news for you. They seem to have figured out our cloaking, and our location has been exposed!"

The chief administrator, who was urgently repairing the data, spoke to Xia Yuan and Qi Bao with a rather solemn expression.

Just as the administrator was speaking, all the fully split Delilahs turned their scarlet eyes toward Xia Yuan, Ai, Kiana, and their group.

"There are so many Theresas getting shorter and shorter, but... there are way too many of them!"

Kiana was somewhat at a loss, as she was completely unable to fight due to the data corruption.

"Miss administrator, what should we do now?!"

Xia Yuan cast a pleading look at the administrator, because with so many idiots like Deli, only the administrator who could fix the virus vulnerability could save him.

“Mr. Xia Yuan, the only way right now is... run! As long as we get out of their sight, we'll be safe once we lose sight of our target.”

The administrator took Xia Yuan's arm with one hand and grabbed Kiana's wrist with the other, leading the two of them toward the Valkyrie dormitory at St. Freya Academy.

However, when Xia Yuan and his group arrived at the teaching building, the interior of St. Freya Academy, which was originally a 3D stereoscopic space, began to split and turn into a side-scrolling arcade game with only two directions: front and back. Meanwhile, the location of the Valkyrie dormitory and the road continued to extend forward.

"Miss Administrator, what's going on now? Not only has St. Freya Academy turned into a side-scrolling arcade game, but even the Valkyrie dormitory seems to have grown legs and is getting further and further away from us."

"Mr. Xia Yuan... It seems that the data of St. Freya Academy has also been damaged to some extent. However, fortunately, I just captured and intercepted a new type of Houmu virus."

"What... the Houmu virus? Could that virus be trying to turn us into short-legged Houmu, Houla, and Houmei?!"

Xia Yuan didn't feel fortunate; he only felt an invisible pressure.

Because a large wave of Delilahs with scarlet eyes were constantly emerging from behind.

【teriteri, teriteri, teriteri...】

"Miss Administrator, please think of something quickly! If this continues, we'll be devoured by more and more Delishas!"

Chapter 297 Ride, you silly goose!

"Isn't there any invincible Valkyrie who can handle this situation right now?!" Xia Yuan, exhausted and with no strength left, let out his final shout.

Xia Yuan's reminder seemed to remind the administrator of something, and her hands flew across the screen, typing lines of code.

"It's up to you!"

After the administrator finished typing the last piece of code, the strongest Valkyrie of Destiny—Durandal—appeared before Xia Yuan and his group.

However, when Xia Yuan finally saw the other person's face clearly, he was stunned. This was not Yulandel at all, but clearly Yulan—the silly goose.

There was a short, plump, small, white swan.

Holding the Black Abyss White Flower on its anthropomorphic wings, it stood in front of Xia Yuan, silently watching him. Xia Yuan also silently gazed at it, the two of them locked eyes.

"Miss Administrator, are you sure there's nothing wrong with the code you just typed? Can it really help us solve our current predicament of being devoured by Deli?"

"Well... Mr. Xia Yuan, as a programmer, you should know that when we maintain and fix bugs in Honkai Impact 3rd, we just need to ensure it runs normally. But as for how it actually runs, we have no way of knowing. She... cough cough, according to the data, it is indeed the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal—Durandal."

Looking at the swans before him, Xia Yuan fell into deep thought.

What he needs is Durandal, the strongest Valkyrie in the Destiny, not Durandal the strongest pet.

Compared to Xia Yuan's silence, Qi Bao curiously poked at him. To show friendliness, she gently stroked his wing, only to be met with a merciless peck from the silly goose.

Kiana withdrew her hand, looking slightly aggrieved, and put her throbbing fingers in her mouth.

"Xia Yuan, it...it bit me!"

But Xia Yuan simply didn't have the energy to comfort Kiana, who had been injured by his mischief.

With a "nothing to lose" mentality, it pointed to the approaching Deli Sha army. As if receiving an order, it gave Xia Yuan a standard Valkyrie salute with its wings, then raised the Black Abyss White Flower and charged straight towards the growing Deli Sha army in the distance with an imposing, unyielding stance.

Even if the arrival of a swan is not human, the Delilahs will not let it go. Their principle is to assimilate and infect any creature they can see.

Spreading the Delicious virus is their instinct.

Just as the Delilahs surrounded them, an incredibly powerful aura blasted the Delilahs in the front row away. No matter how many times the Delilahs split and multiplied, they could never get even half a step closer to the other side.

The silly goose, carrying the Black Abyss White Flower, charged in and out of the Deli Sha army seven times, ignoring the surrounding Deli Sha. Then, its whole body assumed a charging posture, as if it was preparing to crush the entire Deli Sha army in one fell swoop.

Xia Yuan pinched Kiana's cheek as he watched this scene.

"Little bug, does it hurt?"

"Of course it hurts! Why did you suddenly pinch me?"

Hearing Qi Bao's response, Xia Yuan realized he wasn't dreaming.

The scene before him made him realize that the other party was indeed Durandal, the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal, but due to some unknown bug, her form had changed slightly. In this way, he should be able to save her, right?

One by one, the fragmented army of Deli was knocked into the data turbulence and disappeared by the Black Abyss White Flower. However, the Black Abyss White Flower did not seem to feel satisfied or had encountered some unknown bug. After the army of Deli disappeared, it turned its head and the Black Abyss White Flower pointed at Xia Yuan, Kiana and Ai.

Although Krishna's blessing was absent, the opponent's charging speed was in no way inferior to that of the real Durandal.

Seeing the opponent's overwhelming strength and the figure turning around, Xia Yuan began to panic.

The silly goose charged at us.

"Miss Administrator, quick... quick, think of a way to get that silly goose back, otherwise... otherwise... we'll really be killed by them!"

The chief administrator understood the urgency and seriousness of the situation and was deleting data about [Youlan Dai'e] as quickly as possible, trying to remove the data before the other party rushed over.

But the administrator was too late; carrying the Black Abyss White Flower, it swept Xia Yuan and his group off the floor.

At this point, only one of them remained in the horizontal version of St. Freya Academy... well, just one~

It was holding the Black Abyss White Flower high and waving it back and forth a few meters away, which looked like, most likely, a battle settlement animation.

Meanwhile, Xia Yuan, who was overwhelmed by the other side and unfortunately fell into the data turbulence, was confirming one fact: he had been separated from the administrator and Kiana.

"Bug, Manager, are you there?!"

As Xia Yuan shouted loudly, he observed his surroundings. It looked like the rooftop of a building, and the sky was overcast with thunder and lightning.

Seeing this, he seemed to remember something.

The scene here seems to be when Aunt Mei becomes the Herrscher of Thunder, and the worm tries desperately to stay, but is subjected to domestic violence by her.

Just as Xia Yuan had this thought, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.

Subconsciously looking down, Xia Yuan saw milky white skin and slender arms, along with a familiar Valkyrie armor, come into view. It seemed that due to the data turbulence just now, he had once again become Kiana.

Although he doesn't know where the administrator is, given his current status, he should try to persuade Mei, who is about to become the Herrscher of Thunder, to stay... But where is Mei now?

Xia Yuan looked around but couldn't find Mei Yi anywhere on the rooftop.

Unbeknownst to Xia Yuan, a purple figure slowly flew out from the dark clouds, manipulating electromagnetic force to hover above the rooftop, quietly watching Kiana on the rooftop. However, what was somewhat intriguing was that Mei's expression was not filled with aloofness and indifference, but rather with a sense of nostalgia.

"Kiana... Kiana."

Raiden Mei, who was suspended on the rooftop, spoke up.

"Huh? Ah! Oh... Hi, Mei, Mei...!"

When he heard Mei speak slowly, Xia Yuan realized that she was calling out to him.

Xia Yuan glanced subconsciously at the broken barbed wire fence not far from the rooftop...

Perhaps the battle should be over by now?

Chapter 298 Mei, please don't go~

He really didn't need to fight against Mei from the past.

He had no desire to experience what it felt like to be blasted by Raiden Mei's palm strike and sent flying onto the barbed wire fence next to the rooftop.

In the current situation, it would probably be best to try to retain Mei, perhaps by acting cute at the right time?

Without further ado, Mei descended from the sky onto the rooftop...

Xia Yuan took the other person's hand and, mimicking Kiana's former tone of voice, said in a coquettish manner:

"Mei...is that you? Please don't go."

"........"

Aunt Mei, who had just arrived on the rooftop, was suddenly bewildered by Xia Yuan's behavior.

She was also corrupted by the Herrscher of Corruption and accidentally entered the data turbulence. She had just accepted that she had returned to her former identity as the Herrscher of Thunder and saw that all-too-familiar rooftop.

Then Kiana appeared on the rooftop, but her coquettish behavior left Aunt Mei feeling somewhat at a loss.

Logically speaking...

Kiana's attitude at this point, where she wouldn't let him leave, should have been very firm and angry.

Before figuring out the current situation, Aunt Mei decided to mimic her old tone and speak somewhat coldly to Kiana:

"Kiana, let me go, or I'll hit you."

Aunt Mei's aloof reply strengthened Xia Yuan's resolve to continue acting cute, and in order not to be blasted away by her, Kiana (Xia Yuan) hugged her even tighter.

"Mei, I don't want to!!!"

"Well........"

Aunt Mei fell silent again, feeling a pang of guilt. She longed to stroke Kiana's ponytail, to tell her that she would never leave her again, but her hand, which she wanted to let go of, fell limp again.

Because she understands that she is now playing the role of her former self—the Herrscher of Thunder.

Kiana, let go.

"I do not want!"

"Let go."

"I don't want to!!!"

Xia Yuan pressed himself even tighter.

He vaguely felt a tingling, electric current connecting him to the rooftop and Mei's body fragrance. This addictive feeling gradually made Xia Yuan somewhat succumb.

However, just when Xia Yuan thought Mei was about to get angry and push him away... Mei took the initiative to hug him, her words filled with tenderness and affection.

She is no longer the Mei she once was. This place holds a trace of her past regrets. Although she doesn't know what will happen if she doesn't conform to her former self, what's wrong with being gentler?

When Mei took the initiative to hug Xia Yuan, Xia Yuan was stunned... because he realized that he had returned to his original body, and the one hugging him was none other than Aunt Mei, who had grown up and become more mature, almost ripe.

As the pressure in his chest intensified, Xia Yuan suddenly remembered something very serious and panicked.

If it was Aunt Mei who was hugging me just now, then if she discovered that Kiana was actually me in disguise, I probably wouldn't just be experiencing a tingling electric shock... I might encounter Aunt Mei's signature 100,000 volts and be cut in two.

He really doesn't want to get killed by Aunt Mei.

Xia Yuan was about to pull away, but Aunt Mei hugged him tighter and tighter.

"Kiana, it's all over... I'm back."
