To create Honkai Impact 3rd in a world where Kallen exists.

"Sigh, those flower boats are a must-see for Qixi Festival. It's a pity that from this angle you can only see the orchid lanterns hanging at the stern. But at least we've seen the flower boats."

"Why don't you sit on my shoulders and watch?"

Before he could finish speaking, he was hit on the shoulder with a fan.

"Hmph, I've seen that many times..."

Although she said this, her eyes couldn't hide her joy.

"Ah, is that Fengjiazhuang's shop?! I want to eat red bean glutinous rice balls! And candied hawthorns too!"

"Three milk candy dumplings, three orange-flavored rice balls, one piece of osmanthus cake sprinkled with white sugar..."

With her vast knowledge, Guanxing talked about the snacks she wanted to eat.

"Can you even finish eating all that...?"

Ms. Stargazer looked up at me, pointing to the crystal dragon and phoenix cake in front of her, with a childlike expression.

"Assassin~sir~I want that~buy it for me~"

You have no idea when your identity was exposed, and for now you can only accept a huge pile of snacks.

Watching the girls rushing towards each stall ahead, some lingering and hesitant...

If she continues like this, she'll actually be kind of cute...

"Are you satisfied now?" Guan Xing asked with a strange expression.

"Satisfied...what?" You don't understand what the other person means.

"You looked so sullen before, I couldn't resist teasing you on a whim."

"You seem so happy, could it be that you actually believe it?"

The girl held her hands together, blowing on them as she ate her snack.

Under the lanterns, her cheeks were rosy.

From choosing her outfit to selecting lanterns for Qixi Festival, Guan Xing revealed her girlish side.

The pleasant scent of osmanthus surrounded me; I couldn't tell if it was her natural body fragrance or the osmanthus cake she was talking about.

You feel instantly satisfied and wish you could stay in that moment.

This time, the stars in the sky may not go far.

...

[Wait, something's not right. It's supposed to be a happy ending? It suddenly feels unreal.]

[Tears welling up, did the screenwriter actually abandon evil and turn to good? So touching!]

"Don't do this, I'm not used to it. Are you holding back something big?"

"Couldn't this have been written as a happy ending? To be honest, I was quite touched."

Alicia smiled beautifully, the curve just right, and she was very satisfied.

"The future doesn't seem to end here,"

Aponia was no stranger to this situation, especially since there had been subtle foreshadowing in the text, and she had kept all those little details in mind.

Moreover, this incident itself still has many mysteries.

Both the coincidences orchestrated by Mr. Iron Fist and the umbrella-wielding man represent unresolved plot holes.

"Oh, my dear Aponia, isn't it wonderful that things end like this? Hmm?"

Alicia sighed. She wasn't unaware of the captain's reactions; after all, who was going to die next...

Seriously, more main characters died in this plot than in the main storyline combined.

"Is that so...? If it ends like this, it is indeed a good story."

Aponia chuckled softly, offering no rebuttal. Ellie liked that ending; that was the Ellie she wanted.

"But you have a point. Honestly, Luo Mo is such a bad kid~"

Alicia pouted playfully.

Chapter 117 The world will not allow her to live.

Before my eyes, thousands of lanterns floated through the streets, while in the distance, bright lights were scattered like a dream.

The sound of phoenix flutes rises, and the red lanterns and flames shine brightly.

"People come and go on a moonlit night, lanterns fall, sometimes bright, sometimes dim... Lanterns, lanterns for sale!"

The wind chimes tinkled as a craftsman held a unique black umbrella, carrying various novel lanterns on one shoulder.

They sang songs to attract customers as they passed by.

In the vast lantern festival, it was somewhat eye-catching, but not overly obvious.

You remember him well, just as Rosalia described, and now, more importantly, you are enjoying the holiday.

You and the stargazer went for a long time, and you were carrying quite a few snacks she wanted.

"Since that's the case... and it's such a festive occasion, why don't we make a sky lantern?"

Looking at the bustling Huangyue City, Guanxing seemed to have thought of something. He turned around, tugged at your sleeve with great interest, and said, his eyes as bright as the stars in the sky.

She wasn't wrong. She had been to this lantern festival many times, but whether it was interesting or not depended more on the people who came with her.

On a whim, she invites you to make a lantern. As for the materials, that's easy; they're all available for purchase. All you're missing is some bamboo.

So they went together to the bamboo forest outside the city, gathered some bamboo, and chatted as they processed it.

"It's not a Qixi Festival custom...it's just that I suddenly remembered a promise from a long time ago."

Guan Xing smiled and focused intently on making a sky lantern, covering the bamboo strips with thin paper.

The lanterns were completed quickly, and after they were finished, Guan Xing fell into a somewhat silent silence.

She doesn't know how long you'll stay here, but it shouldn't be too long... In other words, the time before you part ways won't be too far off.

"Since your hometown has the custom of writing wishes on sky lanterns, Captain, take your time thinking about it. I'll go get you some pen and ink..."

Without saying a word, Guan Xing ran off into the distance.

The forest path was somewhat secluded in the darkness, and the white figure quickly disappeared into it.

You wander aimlessly, lost in your wishes, and yearn for the separation from stargazing, in this vast world.

...

Is this the end? Although it's a bit uneventful and the separation is somewhat sad, I'm very happy to see that you've been promoted to a permanent position at the company.

【Stargazer, no! Take her away! Or just imprison her with the Captain and make her your plaything, Queen Stargazer...hehehe】

[When will we part again? When will we meet again? This is certainly a wonderful performance.]

But when some well-meaning people disappointedly reset the counter to 2, thinking that was the end of it,

—That would be a huge mistake.

"Heh, just as I expected. Although some of the games played by the lab rats were a bit boring, they never ended in a dull way."

Along with the firelight on the screen, a small green figure appeared in the hall without anyone noticing.

Her slender, delicate fingers brushed against her lips, revealing a captivating allure disproportionate to her figure, as alluring and dangerous as a poppy.

"Wow~ Möbius, when did you arrive?"

Compared to the plot, the sudden appearance of a living person naturally attracted more attention. Alicia asked curiously, but her eyes were also drawn to a flash of light at the bottom of the screen.

"When I saw that 'gray snake,' I was curious why it appeared in the form of a gray snake. After all, according to the initial world-building, the gray snake served as the messenger of the Hero King in the Pirate King's world..."

"...You remember it very clearly, don't you? And you still say you haven't seen it?"

Alicia was even more surprised, since she had just refused her invitation, saying she had no time to watch it and would never watch it again. Could it be that Möbius really was...

"Hmph, after all, it's my creation. Even a small use of it in the game was remembered by me..."

Möbius scoffed, "Unlike you, your head is full of rubbish..."

"Hmm?" Alicia frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed. Has Mebius been acting strangely lately?

Forget it, let's not argue with her for now, let's watch the game.

Why is it on fire? Does it foreshadow the opening of the Pink Fairy's harem?

No, no, no, this looks like the prelude to another knife fight... Alicia thought with some concern.

...

"boom--"

In the distance, the city of Huangyue was ablaze with fire; the wooden buildings, specially constructed to suit the festive atmosphere, had become the perfect fuel for the flames.

The collapse of the wooden beams of Qianxing Pavilion, the flames and explosions that came into view, stirred even greater tension and fear within you.

Cries for help, angry shouts, and sobs filled the air, but the world was eerily quiet at that moment.

You thought you had achieved a happy ending for everyone, but that ending vanished without a trace, like embers falling from the sky.

All your efforts vanished without a trace after an explosion, mocking your powerlessness.

The stargazer died, and Rita and Theresa in this building also died. They were all dead...

Your eyes look somewhat lifeless. Even though you managed to salvage everything, it still turned out like this...

But it's okay, you still have a chance.

We can anchor our past opportunities.

"If only I had realized my mistake sooner... if only I had stopped Guan Xing from returning to Thousand Star Pavilion... if only I could have defused those explosives... all of these are now just regrets..."

You murmured to yourself, yet rushed into the palace as if grasping at a straw, searching for Mr. Iron Fist.

I will never let that happen...

No matter what, this time, you must save everyone...!
