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

She didn't die on the battlefield, but fell to the current strongest S-class Valkyrie, Gunner.

The other Valkyries watched helplessly as this unfolded, their weapons groaning in pain; a single strike had rendered them powerless.

It's not just a difference in strength, but also a psychological pressure.

It cannot be stopped, resisted, or defeated.

Only Rita watched this scene and sighed softly.

She knew this was something she was bound to experience sooner or later.

Those words were also taught by her, spoken by her when Durandal asked how to reduce casualties.

She felt a strange mix of relief and sadness.

But she didn't interfere; allowing Durandal to grow on her own was a better way to protect her.

The blonde girl breathed softly in the sunlight, beside a headless corpse. Her expression was stern and cold, her words clear and distinct.

"The Undying Blade will take over all Valkyries under the branch's command. Rita, you will manage them!"

“...Yes!” Rita responded to the order, a smile returning to her lips as she looked at Durandal, the only captain she truly respected.

Finally, the girl walked towards the branch, carrying a blood-stained spear, all alone.

......

Missiles? Mechs?

When you can't unleash your strongest weapon—the silver bullet—even the strongest attack is a joke!

The blonde girl strolled through the mechs and Valkyries, the missile trails leaving no trace of her charge.

As she raised and lowered her spear, she deliberately avoided the Valkyrie's vitals.

The so-called branch is nothing special.

Two hours later, Durandal and Rita sat in the New Zealand Oceania branch office for a work report.

"Your Excellency, the battlefield has been cleared. The number of casualties in the branch is no more than 10, and all the instigators have been executed."

While Rita and Bishop Karen were reporting to each other, Durandal stood quietly behind them. The tip of the Black Abyss White Flower spear was no longer bloody. She stroked the weapon's handle, her thoughts wandering.

[No more than 10 people?] Kallen hesitated. Rita's abilities couldn't possibly have resulted in such minimal casualties.

Unless, she's the main player?

But Karen didn't say anything more; instead, she nodded slightly.

Rita, Durandal, you did a great job. Continue to stay at the branch these next few days to assist the new branch leader in taking office.

“However, Your Grace, Cocolia of Anti-Entropy is not involved in this operation, and the Tranquil Gem is not in New Zealand,” Rita said with a wry smile.

"It seems she has partnered with another underground force; there aren't many Anti-Entropy mechs in the branch."

Okay, I understand.

"Another underground force?" Karen sighed, but couldn't bring herself to blame anyone.

Did their main target—the Tranquil Gem—escape this time?

Luo Mo had also mentioned this gem and told her to keep an eye out for it.

"Could it be that I've never been able to get close to the true nature of the World Serpent? The people I've sent out during this time have only been able to linger on the serpent's periphery, unable to access its true essence."

"What a mysterious organization!"

[You and Durandal should stay there for a while to stabilize the situation and take a rest, so that she doesn't overwork herself.]

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

After the communication ended, Rita looked at Durandal with a smile and said, "Look, even the Bishop says so, so why don't you go and rest instead of exercising, Durandal?"

“Even if you say that, Rita,” Durandal said seriously, “we Valkyries must also…”

"Wait a minute, Lady Durandal, didn't you ask me on the plane what major event had happened at headquarters?"

"Um!?"

Actually, it's a game.

"Games?" the silly goose asked in confusion. Are games such a big deal?

"The game called Honkai Impact 3rd is fully funded by His Excellency the Bishop, and the Far East Branch operates under it. Since the game is getting an update today, I've come to show Lady Durandal around!"

“...Okay.” She was indeed a little curious.

......

......

In the game's official comments section,

"Finally, the main storyline of this game is playable! Do you know how long I've been waiting?"

"That company is such a jerk, they're about to release a new character! I've already licked Mei's boots!"

"Upstairs, something's wrong! You don't actually like Lady Theresa!"

"The plot is a bit unpredictable. What happened to Wendy?"

"Wendy's line, 'As a Valkyrie, it is my duty to save as many people as possible with my own life... This is my... duty...,' was quite touching. Even though she was the victim."

The debate surrounding Honkai Impact 3rd continues unabated, with many people actively discussing it during the days the main storyline was blocked.

"By the way, how did you guys beat the Black Duck? I just can't seem to beat it!" the newbie asked innocently.

"You just need to do this, and then this again..."

With the game update, the main storyline of this version has finally begun, attracting a large influx of players to Honkai Impact 3.

Thanks to their perseverance over the past two days, they have completed the Valkyrie quests and both the main and side quests, and are eager for more story content to enrich their experience.

The unprecedented action game experience and the youthful and beautiful Valkyries have brought surprises to everyone, while the broken setting and the Valkyries' mission are also eye-catching.

Wouldn't that mean we could use even more beautiful Valkyries!

The only downside is that the story is too short; I can't wait to find out Wendy's fate in the previous chapter.

Her plight is heartbreaking.

"This chapter title..." Mei and her two companions stared at the chapter title—Betrayal is a Silver Smile.

"So my father's ME company belongs to Anti-Entropy! And I was even captured." Mei's face was somewhat pale.

What was once a routine daily life now seems shrouded in mystery, with even familiar family members harboring unknown identities.

Upon entering, they discovered that they and Wendy had been captured by Cocolia and taken to ME Company, and the one who took them away was...

Bronya under control?

The two women glanced at Bronya, who remained expressionless beside them.

Bronya: "..."

How should she explain her relationship with anti-entropy?

Mei-neechan, I wasn't lying?

However, Mei is now facing the same problem as me, and she is also involved with Anti-Entropy. Is this a good thing?

The three of them ignored the question in silence and began their game adventure for the day.

"Hehe, don't worry, Mei, I'll definitely rescue you," Kiana said.

As he spoke, he reached out and hung his hands on Mei, trying to take advantage of her a little more. "But I didn't expect that the little bean and Wendy would be so close!"

"...Bronya guessed it was because they shared a similar fate; both she and Wendy had lost their legs in the experiments," Bronya said with a touch of sadness.

"Bronya, don't be sad, we'll be here for you," Mei comforted her.

Bronya shook her head. Lost her legs?

This certainly caused inconvenience, but more importantly, it took her sister away.

So... if the boss needs it, Bronya glanced at Kiana and Mei.

Then both of you will be forced to work overtime!

This is Bronya's promise!

Chapter 39 - Watch the Plot

"Is this the game you were talking about, Rita? It's interesting! My sister is the main character!" Durandal quickly became engrossed in the game, and her previous training ideas vanished without a trace.

"But, the Third Herrscher and Wendy... are they really suitable to be shown in the game?"

"Hehe, Lady Durandal, it's not just your sister. According to that shopkeeper, there will also be a different kind of Destiny Bishop!"

Rita pointed at Durandal from the side, leaning her cheek against her shoulder. Looking from Durandal's right side, her hand went through her waist and rested on Durandal's hand as she controlled the character, guiding her step by step.

The atmosphere between the two became tense for a moment, and Durandal could even smell the perfume on Rita's body.

"Come on, this character can unleash a branch skill by operating it like this."

Durandal was so shocked that she forgot to criticize Rita's current actions.

"Isn't the Archbishop of Destiny in the game Lady Kallen?"

“Hehe, no, not in the game.” Rita replied, moving closer to Durandal.

"And look, Lady Durandal was even fooled by Lady Theresa here!"

"What?! Is Theresa's period really that unreliable? How could she lie to me like that?" The silly goose was greatly shocked.

......

"As expected, both the Third Herrscher and Bronya belong to Anti-Entropy, and Bronya is also affiliated with Cocolia's faction," Kallen thought, looking at the plot.

"But would you rather burn out your brain chip than hurt your friends?"

"Hehe, what a group of youthful and lovely Valkyries! Only at this age can one firmly believe in friends and value friendship."

Srina is dead, and so is the old man. They were once comrades-in-arms, now enemies.

Fortunately, many more innocent Valkyries are still alive.
