Thousands of fireworks, enjoy the joy from Honkai Impact 3

"Hey, Bronya and Mei are here too. That's a real surprise."

After blocking the attacks of several girls in succession, Hanabi kicked Raiden Mei away and looked up at them carefully.

The collapse of Changkong City was obviously an extremely important time node. Without the core gems of the Herrscher of Thunder and the Herrscher of Reason, the direction of the world has changed dramatically.

But the world's own corrective force leads the world towards its destined ending.

Just like now, although Mei Raiden no longer has the Herrscher Gem, she has still awakened her second personality. Her arrogant and awe-inspiring temperament is exactly the same as Mei Raiden's original personality, but this time, it is no longer the Herrscher personality, but the stigma consciousness.

Thunder in the Sky: Chapter 52: Thousands of Fireworks

The joint attack failed to achieve any results, and Mei Raiden quickly retreated back to Kiana's side. The strong smile on her face faded slightly, revealing a hint of Mei Raiden's gentle worry.

"Hanabi."

The gentle Mei looked at Hanabi with concern, but soon, as if her personality had switched, her worries disappeared. Raiden Mei frowned slightly, and a hint of caution was revealed in her arrogant look.

Although she didn't know what was going on, Mei Raiden inexplicably felt that Hanabi seemed to have become a little different, and there was a familiar aura about her.

"Hanabi, are you awake? Come back with us. Everything is fine now. I told my aunt about you. She welcomes you to Hyperion."

With a bright red sword in her left hand stuck into the ground, Kiana, who had experienced many hardships, was much more mature than her past self. She looked calmly at Hanabi, who was left alone in front of her, and stretched out her right hand to her in invitation.

"Bronya still has a score to settle with you, but since you helped Kiana, we can settle it."

The heavily armored Bunny behind her still held high the heavy artillery in her hand. Bronya obviously had not completely let down her guard, but at least, if Hanabi could really come to the human side as Kiana said, Bronya would not object.

Looking at the familiar three-person team in front of her, a smile appeared on Hanabi's lips. At this time, she had completely accepted the memory after the timeline was changed.

After the events of Changkong City, due to the contact between Siegfried (♀) and Theresa, the three great families were taken to St. Freya Academy, just like in the original world line.

The experience at St. Freya's Academy was as peaceful and tranquil as before.

Except for the fact that Kiana occasionally sleepwalks while playing games and completely deletes Bronya's save data, and Mei Raiden suddenly has a proud inner personality that appears from time to time, there is basically no difference from the original world line.

On Hanabi's side, things are not much different from the past. Although her parents survived the disaster in Changkong City, the disaster of Honkai scared them. After the Changkong City incident, they decided to disband the troupe and return to their hometown, Tiankong City.

After returning to Sky City, Huo Huo's life was boring and dull. She went to and from school in an ordinary way, just like countless other children. She was neither aloof nor cheerful, neither outstanding nor bad. She was the kind that you would definitely not find if you lost her in a crowd.

Until one day a few months ago, Hanabi was attacked by a Honkai beast on her way home from school.

Just when Hanabi was about to be attacked by Honkaimon, a white-haired girl fell from the sky, destroyed Honkaimon and saved Hanabi.

But this hero was obviously at the end of his strength. After destroying the Honkai Beast, he fainted due to exhaustion.

This is Hanabi and Kiana's first encounter.

When Kiana woke up, she found herself sleeping soundly in bed, with warm water and food at the head of the bed.

Hanabi brought the unconscious Kiana back to her home.

At Hanabi's house, Kiana got a good rest.

Although he tried to leave quietly several times because he didn't want to implicate Hanabi, he was noticed and stopped by Hanabi every time.

Hanabi's appearance also reminded Kiana of the Hanabi from a few years ago, but from her words, manners and behavior, Kiana felt that they might not be the same person.

After being stopped by Hanabi several times, Kiana secretly stayed at Hanabi's house with a bit of luck.

Ever since the troupe disbanded, Hanabi's parents have been busy with work and are often away from home for several days, and even when they come home, they are always very late.

This is convenient for Kiana.

Sleeping in Hanabi's bed and eating Hanabi's food was the kind of rest Kiana hadn't been able to get in a long time.

Adequate rest also gave Kiana enough motivation and physical strength to fight against Xilin's erosion of consciousness.

I don’t know what’s going on, but since seeing Hanabi, Sirin’s corrosive power has weakened a lot, and she hasn’t even spoken in Kiana’s mind for a long time.

If days like this could last a little longer, the wound in Kiana's heart might be able to heal a little, and she would have the courage to face her companions.

But soon, a new accident broke this tranquility.

Rita Rossweisse, the S-class Valkyrie of Destiny, comes to Sky City to investigate Shencheng Pharmaceutical. As the World Serpent's apparent money-making tool, Shencheng Pharmaceutical is actually a protective shell for human experiments while being a pharmaceutical company.

After this period of rest, Kiana recovered her energy and also felt the changes around Sky City. The Honkai beasts began to gather and the concentration of Honkai energy was also rising strangely.

At first, Kiana thought it was caused by herself, but subsequent investigations all pointed to Shencheng Pharmaceutical.

With the confrontation between Destiny and the World Serpent, and Kiana who has fled to Sky City as the center, a danger that affects the entire Sky City begins to brew.

The outcome of Sky City is exactly the same as the original world line, with Kiana sacrificing herself and sending the Honkai energy bomb into the sky.

Mei Raiden rushed but still couldn't save Kiana in time. Just like in the original timeline, Kiana was taken away by Yulandel.

With Kiana's departure, the attention focused on Tianqiong City also disappeared one after another, and the main force of the snakes in the world of Tianming Nishang also withdrew.

But in a place that Snake and the others did not notice, a huge amount of Honkai energy caused by the explosion of the Honkai energy bomb fell from the sky and was attracted by a girl on the ground.

That's right, it's fireworks.

A few years ago, in Changkong City, the core of the Thousand Herrscher was implanted into him by his future self.

At this moment, it attracted the explosive and scattered Honkai energy.

All the scattered Honkai energy was gathered again, and finally absorbed into the branch core of the Thousand Herrscher in Hanabi's body.

This also laid the groundwork for Hanabi to become the Herrscher of the Thousand later on.

After the subsequent Herrschers of Ice and Rock were eliminated one after another, the Thousand Herrschers in Hanabi's body also blossomed and bore fruit.

The theater of domination unfolds, and countless domination puppets are born from the negative emotions of humans and become puppets of Hanabi.

Then, as if it were fate, Hanabi set her eyes on the Herrscher Gems on Kiana, and then the current scene happened.

But this time, Kiana in the Domination Theater did not decide the winner with Sirin, but temporarily reconciled for the same goal.

The power of the Herrscher of the Void, combined with the Gem of Tranquility, the Gem of Plague, and the Core of Consciousness, eventually allowed Kiana to evolve into the Herrscher of Fire.

On the other hand, due to the lack of the Conquest Stone, Kiana's pressure is not as great as in the original timeline, and Raiden Mei did not join the World Snake for Kiana.

On the contrary, without the interception of the Ruler of Reason, Kevin took Seele out of the Quantum Sea and also brought Seele into the World Serpent.

Thunder in the Sky: Chapter 53: Catching Fireworks

"That's great! It's really nice to see you all. It seems like Hanabi has definitely changed something."

Looking at the classic three-person team standing in front of him, Kiana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya.

Their appearance has not changed much from the past, but their expressions and temperament have undergone earth-shaking changes.

The originally naive Kiana has become much more serious and mature, and the originally inferior and introverted Mei Raiden has become more and more like a wife. The arrogant version of Mei Raiden shown by her inner personality is also eye-catching.

As for Bronya, well, she is still as small and cute as ever.

But whether it was the tacit cooperation with Kiana just now or the grasp of the timing of the artillery attack, it was very impressive. She has also grown a lot.

Moreover, although Bronya hid well, Hanabi still noticed the backup plan Bronya had hidden behind her, which should be the Star of Eden.

It seems that Bronya is still connected with Anti-Entropy. Even without the inheritance of the Herrscher's ability, Bronya is still recognized by Walter and is ready to be trained to become the next leader of Anti-Entropy.

"Hanabi, come back with us. Although you did something wrong, if you admit your mistake, everyone will forgive you. Most of those who became puppets have recovered. Let us fight for a better world together."

Among the three, Kiana has the deepest feelings for Hanabi. After all, when they were in Sky City, it was Hanabi's care that helped Kiana regain her spirits.

Kiana feels that Hanabi’s help at that time was indispensable for her to be able to get to where she is today.

If it weren't for Hanabi, she might have committed suicide by shooting herself in some unknown corner.

"Why hesitate? If you are sober, come back with us. As long as I, the Queen of Thunder, am here, no one can bully you."

Although it is unclear why Hanabi does not recognize herself, from the perspective of 'Raiden Mei', the birth of the Thunder Queen was because Hanabi took the Conquest Gem when she was in Changkong City.

Without the suppression of the Conquest Gem, Raiden Mei's stigmata were fully awakened, and this is how she successfully awakened the stigmata consciousness when she was at St. Freya's Academy.

Mei Raiden has a gentle outer personality while also possessing a strong and brave inner personality, making Mei Raiden, who was originally alone, no longer lonely.

It is precisely because of her own company that Mei Raiden has been able to completely walk out of the shadow of the past and bravely step into a new future. She is willing to fight for the beauty of the world together with Kiana.

"Ah, you actually want Hanabi to go home with you. Hanabi is really sinful. Do you like Hanabi that much?"

Looking at the serious expressions of Kiana and Mei Raiden, Hanabi held her chin with her hand, looking helpless about her own powerful charm.

"Yes, I like you very much, Hanabi, come back with us."

Facing Hanabi's playful teasing, Kiana took the initiative to step forward, loosened her left hand that was holding the bright red sword, and grabbed Hanabi's hand.

Kiana's initiative was unexpected, and the sincerity on her face was touching. Even Hanabi didn't expect Kiana to react like this.

It was clearly him who took the initiative to tease them, but instead he was attacked directly by Kiana.

This made Hua Huo's calm heart beat violently a few times, and her smiling face froze, and her cheeks suddenly turned slightly red.

But who is Hanabi? Hanabi is Hanabi. She was just not prepared and did not expect Kiana to become so bold and mature.

So, the stunned expression only appeared for a moment, and then Hanabi regained her smile and pulled her hand out of Kiana's hand with a smile.

"You rejected me."

He looked down at his empty palms, as if the touch and warmth of the palm that had just held Fireworks were still lingering in them.

Kiana clenched her fists slowly in frustration and whispered.

Mei Raiden, who was behind Kiana, had a slightly stiff expression when Kiana grabbed Hanabi. She only relaxed after Hanabi broke free. But at the same time, she also realized Hanabi's refusal, and there was a hint of disappointment in her emotions.

"That's right, it takes more than just a few words to bring fireworks home. Fireworks are gorgeous fireworks that belong to the night blooming under the curtain of darkness. Fireworks are the free wind that belongs to the clear blue sky."

“Hanabi’s journey is not over yet, and your ending has not yet come.

Although mature Kiana is very handsome, innocent and cheerful Kiana is equally beautiful.

Although the steady Mei is beautiful, can she act a little coquettishly occasionally instead of standing here pretending to be strong?

And Bronya, did you fulfill your promise to go see the sea with Seele?"

His gaze shifted from Kiana to Raiden Mei, and then from Raiden Mei to Bronya further behind.

Hanabi folded her hands behind her back and took two light steps back.

As she spoke, Hanabi naturally turned around, completely exposing her back to the three of them, and looked up at the Domination Theater that was suspended in the imaginary space.

"No matter how nice your words are, they're useless. Neither Destiny nor Anti-Entropy will let you, the Herrscher of the Thousand, run around. It's still not too late to come back with us."

Although Bronya didn't know Hanabi, the experience she had in Changkong City a few years ago left an indelible impression on her.

Even today, when she opens the military cans in her collection, she will still carefully open a little bit and smell it first, making sure it is not canned herring before she dares to open the can completely and eat it.

Moreover, that incident caused Bronya to lose her appetite for three whole days. Even when she was brought back to St. Freya's Academy, Himeko Murimita thought she was on a hunger strike and almost sent her back to Cocolia.

If she had been sent back to Cocolia, there would probably be no Bronya today. Most of the people in the orphanage died under Cocolia's crazy experiments, and even Cocolia herself was transformed into a half-human, half-Honkai beast monster.

"What a shame! It's so rare for Hanabi to tell the truth, but Bronya doesn't believe her. Okay, okay, I'll be frank. It's still 20,000 years too early for you to catch Hanabi, hehe."

Turning around suddenly, Hanabi looked at the expressionless Bronya, and smiled as she made a classic scissors hand gesture.

"Quick, Kiana, close the imaginary channel, she's trying to run away."

Almost as soon as Hanabi finished speaking, Xilin's anxious voice rang in Kiana's mind.

But by this time, it was too late.

Although the Herrscher of the Thousand is not as good at controlling the imaginary space as the Herrscher of the Void, this is the Herrscher of the Thousand's home ground after all, and it is a theater of domination under the power of domination.

It is much more convenient to open a door and exit from the Domination Theater than through the Herrscher of the Sky.

By the time Kiana left the Domination Theater through the door opened by Hanabi and stood on the busy street, Kiana and the other two, who had caused a burst of exclamations, could no longer find Hanabi.

Hanabi's illusion, in front of such a crowd, was like water entering the sea, and it was impossible to find it.

Wind of Freedom: Chapter 54: Yulandel

New Zealand, the Oceania branch of Tenmangu.

This was originally the anti-Honkai base where the Destiny Valkyrie team was stationed, and it was also one of the important research bases under Destiny.
