Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Log

Page 185

Characters like Alicia, Aponia, Eden, Hua Ge, Sakura, Pado, and Ling Ya Tou mostly hone their combat skills in the morning and then enjoy a wonderful and leisurely life in the afternoon, according to their personal preferences.

At night, they will follow Gu Jing into a place called Chenge Pot, which is said to be a small world created by Gu Jing.

As a place of refuge, it connects not only to their world, but also to a place called Teyvat.

But if I may be so bold, aside from all the entertainment facilities, the so-called Chen Ge Pot is just a place where Gu Jing keeps his mistresses. The beautiful young girls and pretty older sisters who usually stay there are simply dazzling!

As for the higher-ups of the Moth Chasing the Flame?

Currently, Rin has indeed taken them all under her control through a method called [Erosion], but it's still too early for Himiko to discern the merits or demerits of this approach...

Moreover, Dr. Mei wasn't stupid. Instead of openly taking away everyone's power, she gradually shifted the focus of power to the propaganda department, which prevented the Moths from causing any major problems.

Having witnessed everything, and knowing that Gu Jing would be initiating time acceleration the next day, Himiko knew that it was time for her to make a decision.

But...does she really have a choice?

******

That afternoon, Himiko arrived at Dr. Mei's research institute with mixed feelings. To her surprise, upon entering, she only saw many researchers recording data. After inquiring, she learned that Dr. Mei was in her laboratory.

It is said that the artificial intelligence named [Prometheus] has reached the final debugging stage, and Dr. Mei is temporarily unable to leave.

However, she also told me that if there was an emergency, I could go to her.

The entrance to the laboratory —

Himiko dialed the phone at the door, and as the call was answered inside, the red light on the device turned green.

Then came Dr. Mei's slightly breathless voice: "What's the problem?"

"it's me."

"Himi 0.6 breaths."

"I have something I'd like to discuss with you in person."

After she finished speaking, Dr. Mei gave a halting reply: "Himiko? Please, please wait five minutes..."

"beep--"

Himiko was a little surprised to see the communication device turn red again. Was debugging artificial intelligence really that difficult?

As usual, Himiko flipped through her diary, but there was no live stream footage or new diary entries. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong!

What kind of mess is this? She was even thinking of teaching Dr. Möbius a lesson!

Why do I always feel like I'm the one suffering in the end?

These bastards are absolutely outrageous!

Or rather, before she was integrated into this group, Himiko was indeed an outsider!

P.S.: Thanks to 'Snow in Early June' for the vote.

The photo shows Dr. Mei.

Chapter 172 Einstein! Shall we follow her example and secretly usurp the throne?

In the corridor of the research institute, the bright lights stretched Himiko's shadow long. With mixed feelings, she suddenly felt someone nudge her arm. Turning her head, she saw Dr. Einstein with a tuft of red hair in his blue hair.

Their eyes met, and the other person smiled and asked, "Captain Himiko, are you here to see Dr. Mei too?"

Himiko hesitated before telling the truth: "Well... she has something to do right now and can't leave. She asked me to wait for her here for a while."

Einstein chuckled understandingly: "That's how research is; sometimes inspiration strikes and you forget everything else."

Himiko, her expression subtle, hesitated, "..." If only she were really doing research, but she just doesn't seem like it at all!

So she promptly changed the subject: "Dr. Einstein also wanted to see her?"

"Um.".

"It's important."

"Dr. Mei's research institute was only recently established."

"But research funding is coming in in huge amounts."

"Dr. Einstein was very envious."

"So I want to learn from her experience."

Looking at Einstein's expectant expression, Himiko felt a lump in her throat and really wanted to tell the truth—Dr. Mei has a lot of research funding now, simply because she is now paying herself a salary!

Seek her advice? What advice? Learn from her secret usurpation of power?

******

Nearly half an hour later, the laboratory doors opened to both sides, and Himiko and Einstein entered one after the other.

Compared to the cleaner and tidier Mebius Biological Laboratory, Mei's quantum laboratory is more spacious, with numerous monitors and various working machines mostly suspended from the ceiling. In the very center, there is a worktable that resembles an operating table.

The gray-haired girl in punk clothing sitting on the workbench was Prometheus, her bright red eyes fixed on them as they entered.

However... Gu Jing was indeed in this lab. Looking at Dr. Mei, whose cheeks still had a slight blush, Himiko immediately felt that the two of them had definitely not done anything good just now. But wasn't it going too far to do something in front of artificial intelligence? Prometheus was just a newborn child!

Just then, Himiko noticed that Gu Jing had already started his live stream for the day and even updated his diary.

[About Prometheus]

Born of catastrophe, yet increasingly showing hope, witnessing new life.

This was Mei's original intention in naming her 'Prometheus'.

[And on the original timeline.]

She did indeed do it.

[Speaking of which, I must mention one more thing.]

In fact, the Herrschers of the previous civilization didn't possess much humanity.

They do indeed experience fear.

They also feel fear when their lives are threatened.

But many more see destroying human civilization as their sacred duty.

【besides.】

People's fates are, in fact, guided by the cocoon of the end.

[Someone might have already thought of that.]

[Did Kiana and Raiden Mei retain their humanity after becoming Herrschers?]

[Especially Raiden Mei.]

[Awakened to become the Third Herrscher in 14.]

Two and a half years have passed.

She still retains her human identity.

Why is that?

Is it a miracle, one in billions?

Of course not.

There are no coincidences in the world of Honkai Impact.

This situation may occur.

[The main reason is that three people from the previous civilization joined forces to do something significant.]

One of them is Prometheus, standing before me.

[And in everyone's understanding of Honkai.]

You all call her...

[The Will of Honkai!]

*******

Theresa and the others, upon seeing this, widened their eyes in shock: "—!!!"

This artificial intelligence bears a striking resemblance to Bronya.

It's actually the will of Honkai?

In other words, are the disasters of our current civilization caused by previous civilizations?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shake her head, her gaze falling on the beginning of the diary: "Born of disaster, showing hope, witnessing rebirth"... These words weren't necessarily bad; there must be things they didn't know.

Moreover, having followed the series to this point, most of us in the modern world have probably realized that the forerunners of the previous civilization, realizing that their era was bound to come to an end, placed high hopes on their time and left them with a great deal of legacy.

These pioneers are respectable predecessors, and their purpose in doing this was to help them defeat the Honkai!

I may not understand the arrangements made by my seniors yet, but their intentions are definitely good.

[As for why Prometheus transformed into the Honkai Will?]

The answer to this question will have to wait until later.

We will discuss the other two participants in more detail later.

But how should I put it?

[I personally participated in the creation of Prometheus.]

I feel quite accomplished.

Of course, the technology for creating artificial humans in previous civilizations was not yet that advanced.

For example, the joints of Prometheus.

[Initially, they were all moving machines exposed to the air.]

[Now, she looks like a completely beautiful young girl.]
