Chapter 537 - 543: Anti-Entropy Alliance Leader Welt! Fu Hua, you're too heartless!
"Phew...""Everyone, I need to take a breather!"
"These two chapters have left me feeling a bit overwhelmed..."
"Let's sort things out first."
Little Gui pulled up screenshots of the plot and her notes.
To better experience this game, she had done her best to be meticulous and serious.
"First, let's take a look at the history of Honkai."
In the image,
It was Himeko explaining in class.
[Honkai is a destructive disaster that accompanies civilization, continuously descending...]
[The first Honkai Eruption in Berlin in 1953, humanity first discovered...]
[High concentrations of Honkai Energy gather, forming a core within the human body, giving birth to Herrschers who can distort physical laws...]
[In Siberia in 2000, the Herrscher of the Void awakened, and the Second Honkai Eruption became a disaster that affected global civilization...]
...
"Herrschers who can distort physical laws, sounds pretty impressive, huh?"
"How strong are Herrschers compared to Emanators?"
"For Emanators, destroying a galaxy is no big deal, so the Herrschers here should be equivalent to stronger Pathstriders."
"Wendy, who awakened as the Fourth Herrscher, fought back and forth with the main cast (three B-rank Valkyries), and it didn't feel very intense."
"Then she was wiped out in one hit by Anti-Entropy's mecha (sad)."
"Honkai is just like that…"
"I feel like I could do it too!"
...
Little Gui nodded.
"Indeed, so far, the catastrophic nature of the Herrschers and Honkai hasn't been very vividly portrayed."
"I've summarized it!"
"There are two key points worth noting in these earlier chapters!"
"―Mei is the 3rd Herrscher, and she has the Gem of Conquest within her."
"―Kiana has a strong connection to the Second Herrscher, and the voice of the Second Herrscher often appears in her dreams!"
"Thinking about it this way, it's kind of bad!"
"Both members of the main cast have the potential to awaken as Herrschers… the big boss is actually themselves!"
As soon as Little Gui said this,
it sparked another heated discussion in the comments!
...
"The Second Herrscher should be in a state similar to being possessed by a Heliobus, and it wasn't completely eradicated back then!"
"Could it be… that later on, both Kiana and Mei become Herrschers and join forces to destroy the world?"
"Himeko: What? My students are all Herrschers!?"
"My heart aches for Himeko in this world."
"Himeko: I'm tired, just let it all end."
"When will Mei awaken as the 3rd Herrscher? It sounds so badass!"
"Where's my First Herrscher?"
"Brothers, I just realized something explosive! In the character descriptions of Honkai: Star Rail, it says that Welt is the Lord Leader of Anti-Entropy!"
"Huh?"
"Could this be Uncle Yang's homeland!?"
"Damn, the foreshadowing runs so deep!"
"I quickly logged in to check, and it's true!"
"Confirmed, confirmed!"
"But how did Welt end up on the Astral Express? Wow, suddenly there's so much information hitting me!"
...
Astral Express.
"Oh my god!"
"Uncle Yang… you were so amazing when you were young!"
"I didn't have any idea before!"
"From now on, I've decided to call you Lord Leader!"
March 7th seemed to have returned to her usual lively and cheerful self.
Because,
after her persistent pestering,
Old Yang finally told her.
Everything that happened in his homeland, though not perfect, ultimately led to a decent ending.
After learning this,
March 7th regained her spirits!
No matter how tragic things are now,
in the end,
the people of that planet must have overcome Honkai and saved their home, right?
Old Yang adjusted his glasses.
He said helplessly, "It's all in the past."
"Now, I'm no longer the Lord Leader of Anti-Entropy, nor am I the First Herrscher."
"But you're still amazing…"
Suddenly!
March 7th froze!
"Wait, wait!"
"Uncle Yang, what did you say!?"
"You… you're the First Herrscher?"
"The Herrscher who emerged during the first Honkai outbreak in… Berlin!?"
March 7th looked utterly shocked!
Old Yang's gaze deepened.
He found it somewhat difficult to answer March 7th's question.
He nodded, then shook his head.
"March, this story is more complicated than you think."
"I'll tell you about it when I get the chance."
March 7th nodded.
She continued to watch the livestream!
Now,
she was incredibly curious about everything that had happened in Old Yang's homeland!
"They're all beautiful girls!"
"Though it's a bit intense, seeing them fight side by side feels so heartwarming!"
"A beautiful girl like me should definitely play a game full of beautiful girls!"
"Look at this scene, how warm and touching!"
At this moment,
In the live stream.
Kiana and her mother Cecilia had just defeated the Second Herrscher together.
Kiana was now snuggling in her mother's arms.
"Can I stay in your arms a little longer? Just a bit more."
Kiana's face was filled with happiness.
Cecilia gently stroked her head: "Of course, you can stay as long as you want."
"You've worked hard, Kiana."
"Yeah, hehe~"
So sweet!
Although March 7th had no memories of her past and didn't know who her mother was,
She was completely immersed in the scene!
Even,
She wanted to imitate Kiana in the story, to freely snuggle in someone's arms...
Her gaze,
Turned to the gentle and elegant Himeko beside her.
Wuwu...
Sister Himeko, can I hug you for a while? Just a little while!
Just as March 7th was about to speak,
A sudden change occurred!
...
"Kiana, why are you here!?"
Theresa looked at Kiana in surprise.
"Theresa? Haha, you're back too late."
"The Second Herrscher has already been defeated by me and Lady Cecilia!"
Theresa's face showed deeper suspicion!
"Huh? What are you talking about, Kiana."
"There's no one else here..."
Kiana laughed heartily: "What nonsense are you saying, Lady Cecilia is right beside me..."
Before she could finish,
Kiana suddenly felt as if something was stuck in her throat!
Because,
The moment she turned her head!
The gentle mother beside her had completely vanished!
Not a trace of her existence remained!
The surrounding scene instantly reverted to a cold, data-filled space.
Kiana stood frozen in place!
Theresa quickly reminded her: "How did you sneak into this data space?"
"Come back with me, the things here..."
"Buzz!"
A cloud of gray smoke suddenly swept in!
Directly engulfing Theresa.
A figure,
Appeared indifferently.
"To avoid hindering our mission."
"Please step aside for now, Principal."
This person,
Was none other than the Class Monitor, Fu Hua!
She was clad in black and gold armor.
Her expression was cold and resolute.
Speaking to Kiana, who was still in a daze, he said, "Your mother is not here."
"This data space has never had any virtual environment or AI."
"Babylon Laboratory and Cecilia never existed from the beginning."
Kiana was completely shattered!
She turned around.
With a resistant posture, she said, "What... are you talking about?!"
"No, you're lying!"
"Mom has always been by my side..."
"We defeated the Second Herrscher together..."
"I protected my mom..."
"Give my mom back!!!"
Kiana rushed forward.
The illusory beauty and cruel reality seemed too much for her to bear.
She pushed Fu Hua's body.
Her entire body was trembling slightly.
Fu Hua, helpless, said, "All of this is just your fantasy."
"From the moment you entered the data space."
"You've been standing still in the same spot."
"It was the Herrscher's trick that immersed you in your own dream."
"Everything you saw and experienced was fake."
"The Cecilia you were searching for, the mother you tried so hard to protect..."
"Was just an illusion created by Sirin using your desires."
...
"Stop it, stop it!"
"It hurts, it hurts so much!"
"Damn, this is too cruel!"
"Fu Hua, you're ruthless, hitting all the points directly!"
"Who wouldn't break down in this situation? Wuwu..."
"We doctors understand that when a patient is on the verge of collapse, it's not about analyzing their chances of survival, but providing necessary psychological comfort..."
"Mainly, Kiana got too immersed and ignited hope, otherwise she wouldn't feel such despair now."
"Fu Hua probably wanted Kiana to completely abandon this false beauty and not be controlled by the Herrscher... sigh."
"This Second Herrscher isn't just about simple destruction and devastation, she even knows how to kill the heart!"
"Phantylia: I need to sit up and watch this!"
"Got it! Honkai is the youthful version of Nanook, and Herrschers are the youthful version of Emanators!"
