My outrageous life in Honkai Impact 3

"Would you like to come with us, senior?"

Himeko suggested to Xuanyu that if Xuanyu agreed, they could not only gain a powerful combatant, but also bring Luo Chen back from the World Serpent.

"No, it's not good for you if I go with you." Xuan Yu shook her head and refused, while suggesting to them, "I suggest you go to Changkong City next time. Luo Chen is there now."

"Why aren't you with us, senior?"

Ji Zi found Xuan Yu's attitude very strange. She always felt that he was deliberately avoiding Luo Chen. She knew that Luo Chen was in Changkong City, but she did not go there herself, which Ji Zi could not understand.

"The time is not right yet. Actually, I want to go there, but it's not possible now."

Himeko didn't know Xuanyu's reason for doing this, but since Xuanyu didn't want to go, she wouldn't force her.

"Himeko, what does Xiaochen usually do at St. Freya?"

After finishing their business, Xuan Yu wanted to chat with Ji Zi, and the conversation eventually turned to Luo Chen and his group.

"Him? He's usually not serious, always lazy and looking like he doesn't want to do anything. He often skips classes and gets into strange situations when he goes out on missions."

Himeko became more and more agitated as she spoke, while Xuan Yu's face grew increasingly dark, especially when she heard Luo Chen using the Jizo Soul to chop vegetables, she couldn't hold back any longer.

"This guy, I'm really impressed."

Xuan Yu's expression was quite interesting. There were some things that Luo Meng had already told her, while Ji Zi talked more about the things Luo Chen had done at the academy, things that Luo Meng didn't know.

Where is Kiana now?

After chatting for a while, Xuan Yu asked Himeko about Kiana's current location, then left to check on her.

……

Changkong City

Looking around, the entire city was in ruins, with abandoned buildings in disrepair and many debris scattered on the streets. Although Schicksal had cleaned up the Honkai once, various zombies and Honkai beasts still roamed the area.

Luo Chen slashed down the charging-class Honkai Beast in front of him with a single strike, glanced at the body lying on the ground, sheathed his sword, and continued walking forward.

Are you going to keep following me?

Luo Chen turned around and looked at the gray snake following behind him. Ever since they came out of the World Serpent's base, the snake had been following him and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what he said, which annoyed Luo Chen.

“Mr. Luo Chen, as I have already said, the Lord has sent me to help you.”

Gray Snake replied politely, and the two walked silently one after the other in this desolate place.

As he walked, Luo Chen unconsciously came to a familiar street. Looking at the villa not far away, he remained silent for a while before walking over.

"No signs of damage?"

Luo Chen walked around the villa and was somewhat surprised to find that the entire house showed no signs of damage.

Returning to the door, Luo Chen stared at the dusty doorknob and gently touched it.

Luo Chen withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted, feeling something stuck in his chest, and remained silent for a long time.

About half a minute later, Luo Chen pushed open the door and went in. The living room was the same as when he left, with the only changes being that the furniture was covered in dust.

After cleaning the dust off the sofa, Luo Chen sat down and looked up at the sky, completely ignoring the gray snake behind him.

“Mr. Luo Chen, the executives of World Serpent address each other by code names, so please come up with a code name.”

"Code name? What would I do with that thing?"

Luo Chen got up from the sofa and walked up to Gray Serpent, saying indifferently, "I don't usually meet with you World Serpent executives, so why do you need code names?"

"That's more convenient."

"Alright, let's call it Tarantula then."

"Tarantula...why did you come up with this codename?"

"For no reason, I am just an inheritor of a story, just like the King of Hazama who lived for more than two thousand years."

Gray Serpent couldn't understand what Luo Chen was saying, and there was no information about the person Luo Chen was talking about in his database, so he concluded that Luo Chen must be talking about something he knew from another world.

“I understand, Lord Tarantula.”

Gray Serpent handed the briefcase to Luo Chen and explained under Luo Chen's questioning gaze, "This contains a communication device. You can use it to communicate with the other executives of World Serpent. I won't be spending the rest of the time with you."

"So you've been following me all this time just so I can come up with a code name?"

Luo Chen wanted to know what Gray Snake's thought process was like. He had followed him from the base all the way here, just for this trivial matter.

"Not entirely. The Lord is arriving soon, and I need to greet him here. Farewell."

After explaining his business, Gray Snake left, leaving Luo Chen alone in the villa.

After seeing the gray snake off, Luo Chen went upstairs to his room.

The room already smelled familiar. Luo Chen carefully examined the photos on the table, took them out of their frames one by one and put them in his pocket, then looked around to see if there was anything else he wanted to take with him.

"It seems like nothing's wrong anymore."

Downstairs, Luo Chen glanced at the briefcase he had left on the table, then leaned over and opened it.

Inside was a terminal and a card, with an instruction manual underneath the card.

After reading through the instructions, Luo Chen understood what the two items were for. The terminal, as Gray Snake had said, was used to contact other people, while the card was used to open the door to headquarters.

"Hilarious! It's outrageous that an executive of such a large organization as World Serpent would use this thing to open a door."

Luo Chen played with the card in his hand for a while, then tossed it into his pocket and ignored it.

"We need to think about what to do next. We don't know what Kiana and Mei are doing. If something happens to them and they don't come to Changkong, that will be a real problem. And why do I feel like something's not quite right?"

Instead of talking to yourself here, you should go and investigate for yourself.

Hei Chen, who had been offline, suddenly spoke, which startled Luo Chen. He immediately cursed, "Damn it, don't suddenly speak! You scared me to death!"

"You're still going to get scared?"

Hei Chen was talking merrily when Luo Chen was about to retort when Hei Chen pulled him into his consciousness space, where he saw Hei Chen drinking tea.

"sit down."

Hei Chen put down his teacup, pointed to the empty stone chair opposite him, and poured tea for Luo Chen.

The aroma of tea lingered between the two. Luo Chen sat down, picked up his teacup, and took a sip, finding the taste particularly familiar.

"This smells like the black tea I keep in my dorm room, doesn't it?"

"This is your consciousness space. Isn't it normal for me to materialize those black teas?"

A book appeared out of thin air in Hei Chen's hand. He handed the book to Luo Chen, who took it and saw that it was actually his textbook.

"You can do that? Can I?"

"No."

Seeing Luo Chen's crumbling expression, Hei Chen laughed with pleasure. He stopped Luo Chen before he could lose his temper and hit him, explaining, "You have absolutely no understanding of this, so it's definitely not going to work."

"Then what should I do?"

"Things will work themselves out, so don't worry. I'll teach you when I get some of the great ability to recognize three-year-olds. It's not very useful, though."

"Alright, let's not talk about that now. What brings you here all of a sudden?"

Since Luo Chen learned of Hei Chen's existence, Hei Chen has rarely shown himself, so Luo Chen was a little surprised that he suddenly spoke this time.

"It's nothing, I was just bored by myself and wanted to talk to you."

Chapter 186 Children

After Luo Chen exited the consciousness space, Hei Chen went back to read his book. However, before Luo Chen left, Hei Chen reminded him that he could go to Raven to ask about the situation of Mei and the others.

"That's right, Raven seems to be in the sky too."

Luo Chen looked at the terminal on the table, picked it up, and opened it to contact Raven.

"Is there a problem?"

Raven's voice was indifferent. Luo Chen could vaguely hear the roars of Honkai Beasts coming from Raven's direction, but what did that have to do with him?

"I have a question for you. Did you encounter Raiden Mei in the Sky?"

"We ran into them, and we also ran into that girl named Kiana. Don't worry, they ran away."

"That's good. I'm in Changkong City. Do you want me to go check on those kids for you?"

"How did you know?"

Raven's tone became more serious, and he became more agitated.

"Guess. Also, we're colleagues, I wouldn't harm them, so do you want me to help keep an eye on them?"

Hearing Luo Chen's words, Raven hesitated for a moment. She would have to wait a few more days before she could go to Changkong, and she was also very worried about the children's condition. In addition, considering Luo Chen's personality, Raven ultimately chose to believe him.

"Okay, then I'll tell you the location."

"can."

After ending the communication, Luo Chen received the address sent by Raven. The children's address wasn't far from his place, so he decided to go there now.

Back on the street, Luo Chen walked for about ten minutes and came to a small house.

A faint scent filled the air, smelling like jam. Luo Chen was certain that this was it.

Just as Luo Chen was about to walk over, a little girl came out of the small house. When she saw Luo Chen standing in front of the door, she was a little surprised at first, and then quickly ran back into the house and locked the door.
