A chat group where you switch bodies with Alicia at the start?

Jiang Qiao looked at the question and fell into a brief silence, but the girl, separated from him by fifty thousand years, seemed to guess the reason for his silence and added:

"I beg you."

At that moment, Jiang Qiao seemed to see the pink-clad girl holding her hand tightly, staring at her with utmost sincerity, her eyes filled with pleading.

Chapter 3 Raiden Mei: Don't come any closer!

"That's amazing."

Staring at the beautiful young woman in the mirror, Jiang Qiao couldn't help but chuckle.

Although it was just a few words, the perceptive girl realized that she might know information that could save the city from its near-death experience.

They even realized the reasons for their hesitation.

So, Jiang Qiao didn't answer immediately, but instead asked a question in return:

"Why do you think so?"

"Actually, I can't be sure. If I had to say, it's probably just a girl's intuition."

On the other side, Alicia, who was supporting his body, chuckled and confessed her thoughts through the group chat:

"I want to try to save this city, so... could you please tell me what you know?"

"Things have taken an unexpected turn, and that's why I didn't want to talk about it."

Jiang Qiao sighed.

He had long guessed that, given Alicia's personality, she would not have run away without a care in the world once she knew the details of the Third Great Collapse.

As a result, the perceptive girl still managed to glean some information from the few words she spoke and set her sights on herself.

Honestly, venturing into dangerous places is completely against my beliefs.

but--

Even if I didn't tell you, you still wouldn't leave, right?

Alicia: Oh my~ You really know me surprisingly well. You haven't been secretly watching me all this time, have you? Of course, true to Alicia's style, she would never back down at the last minute~

Having learned that a massive collapse was about to occur in Changkong City, this girl who deeply loves humanity would certainly not choose to preserve her own life.

"If you think it's cool, then next time use your own body to say it! Using someone else's body is just too capricious."

The pink-clad girl in the dressing mirror pressed her temples, a hint of dissatisfaction and helplessness appearing on her pretty face.

Alicia fell into a brief silence in the chat group.

In the past, she would have responded with something like, "Being willful is the privilege of a beautiful young girl!"

But Alicia couldn't bring herself to say such things to Jiang Qiao.

After all, she was using Jiang Qiao's body at the moment, and the things she wanted to do were also risky things using Jiang Qiao's body.

Even a young girl's capriciousness has its limits; if she's too willful, others will dislike her!

If this adventure were simply attributed to the capricious privileges of a beautiful girl, Alicia herself would find it hard to believe.

She's not that kind of shameless girl!

"Feel sorry."

Alicia could only reply with such simple words.

She couldn't change her decision.

Even though she was unwilling to do such a shameless thing, she couldn't bear to watch the people of Changkong City suffer because she loved humanity so much.

This kind of thing is really very painful.

"If I fail, I'll have to ask you to stay a girl forever, but I'm quite confident in my appearance~ So, I'm sorry~"

Upon seeing Alicia's reply, Jiang Qiao felt her fists harden.

If someone says something like that, then all I can do is help!

Unfortunately, he had absolutely no interest in living as a girl forever!

What a despicable pink fat woman!

In the mirror, the pink-clad girl's expression turned fierce and menacing.

Even if it's just to protect my own body, saving Changkong City is the only path left!

If Alicia were to be sent to save Changkong City with her ordinary human form and even a mild brain disorder buff due to a certain paramecium, it would be like sending her to her death!

Whether it was out of a desire not to be a girl, or a special feeling for the ridiculously silly pink fat woman, Jiang Qiao simply couldn't stand idly by.

"Okay, okay, I got it, I'll help you! I don't want to be a girl forever!"

Alicia: Hmm~ As expected, Jiang Qiao is a very kind boy!

"How did they come to this conclusion? We haven't even actually met yet!"

Alicia: It's intuition~

She used the most shameless excuses as always, but that's definitely the style of the pink-haired fat lady.

Jiang Qiao scratched his hair in frustration in front of the dressing mirror. Alicia's hair was really good, silky smooth. Normally, he would have given her a good critique, but with Alicia having chosen to save Changkong City, he had no time for such comments.

The mastermind behind the Third Collapse was Cocolia, the executor of anti-entropy and the god of civil war.

Driven by her own selfish desire to seize control of the Third Herrscher through her own means and further expand her influence within the organization, that madwoman's schemes ultimately led to this man-made disaster.

But the most crucial thing right now is not how to get rid of Cocolia, the mastermind behind the disaster, but how to deal with the key figure in this disaster—Raiden Mei.

In Raiden Mei's heart, her father Raiden Ryoma was such a glorious and righteous figure that she deeply admired him.

When Raiden Mei's idol was shattered due to Cocolia's scheme, she became completely despondent.

Coupled with the stark contrast in her surroundings, the cook's mentality was undoubtedly on a headlong plunge into the abyss.

Once Raiden Mei's mentality completely collapses, that will be the beginning of the Third Great Honkai Impact.

The reason this place is considered dangerous is because the lifeline of Changkong City is entirely equivalent to Raiden Mei's mentality. Who knows when that cook's mentality will explode?

Don't talk about the rooftop scene. If it were a game, Jiang Qiao would definitely believe it, but since it has become a reality, he would never gamble that Raiden Mei's mentality would only explode during the rooftop scene.

After all, the cook's condition had already reached a critical point before that, and the rooftop scene was just pushing the limits.

Besides, who knows when the cook might jump off the roof? What if it's right now?

Jiang Qiao didn't consider saving the cook for this reason; if the timing was wrong, rushing over would just be suicide, and he would be killed by the massive collapse on the way.

Rather than gambling on the mother-in-law's mentality and taking on a lot of extra risks to turn the tide, the best choice is to get rich quickly.

But now, he has no choice but to risk his life to accompany the girl and go crazy with Alicia.

Alicia: So, to save Changkong City, we must first save that girl named Raiden Mei?

Alicia: No problem, I'll go right away~ When it comes to saving a beautiful girl, this beautiful fairy is quite confident~

Upon seeing this message, Jiang Qiao was seething with frustration.

You're not just very good at it, but don't even mention saving beautiful girls. Just think about how the heroes who chase fire will be killed by both men and women!

This early-game Fat Lady facing off against the early-game Red Electric Dragon can only be described as—

Raiden Mei: Don't come any closer!!! (The cook screams)

Chapter Four: You're deliberately picking a fight, aren't you?

Let Alicia soothe the cook's mindset; that's a piece of cake for her!

But doing things while suffering from mild encephalopathy is somewhat torturous.

So Jiang Qiao studied the chat group in her head and found a place where she could use it.

--Red envelope.

By consuming a few points, you can send all sorts of things to your group members, such as items.

There are two sources of points: one point is earned through daily check-in, and the other is through a special panel called Dimensional Commission.

This is a task panel where you can earn points by completing the tasks that appear.

Jiang Qiao: I'm waiting online. Does anyone have any quick-acting medicine or something that can cure brain disorders?

Jiang Qiao directly sought help from the all-knowing group members.

However, the group chat fell into a brief silence.

He thought about it and it seemed to make sense.
