On how PhDs become human evil

Seeing this, Theresa's suspicion turned into certainty. She stood up and grabbed her nephew by the collar: "You little rascal! You even went after your own sister! And you got married without a word! You want to eat Judas, don't you!?"

"What?! Kiana, you're married?!"

Upon catching the key words in Theresa's words, Raiden Mei was immediately shocked, and after seeing the ring on Kiana's ring finger, Raiden Mei immediately felt dizzy.

They were worried sick about Kiana, but not only was she perfectly fine, she even got married in secret.

Raiden Mei's mentality was somewhat shattered.

While Raiden Mei exploded on the spot, Bronya felt a surge of joy.

(Now that Kiana is married, it means she won't be competing with me for Mei, so Mei is mine! Perfect!)

Miss Four-Turbo Duck silently gave Kiana a thumbs up, promising that she would never call Kiana an idiot again.

"Wait, since Kiana is married, who is her husband?" Raiden Mei asked the most important question.

Marriage is a matter between two people. Since Kiana is married, she must have a man. Raiden Mei thinks she has to carefully examine the man who married her best friend!

Upon hearing this, Kiana hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked to Bai Jie's side, hugged his arm, stood on tiptoe, and gave him a hard kiss on the lips: "Um... my brother and I got married. We've been married for about a month now, although we didn't have a wedding ceremony or register our marriage."

"As you can see, Kiana and I got married, although it was Kiana who took the initiative," Bai Jie said with a wry smile.

Kiana rolled her eyes at Bai Jie and said, "If I don't take the initiative, you'll be dragging this out for ages before you accept me, bro."

Looking at Bai Jie and Kiana, Raiden Mei and Bronya were both stunned and didn't know what to say.

"Um... Kiana, you and the Captain are siblings, right...?"

"That's right."

"Siblings getting married...isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

"We are sworn siblings, not related by blood."

"No, I mean in terms of the relationship...won't it feel strange?"

"It's okay! Even if they're siblings, as long as there's love, there's no problem!"

Kiana's words left Raiden Mei, Bronya, and Theresa speechless—was Kiana really such a serious brother complex?

(By the way, Kiana said she got married a month ago?)

Theresa realized a blind spot.

(So ​​the reason Kiana hasn't appeared for a month... is she on her honeymoon?)

While they were painstakingly searching for Kiana and worried about her safety, she was enjoying a shameless newlywed life with her adoptive brother...

Theresa/Raiden Mei/Bronya: Kiana, you've given us back all the worry we had!

Section 425, Chapter 8: Exusiai's Elite 2 materials are ready; only the battle log is missing.

Although Raiden Mei, Bronya, and Theresa all found it extremely difficult to accept Kiana and Bai Jie's marriage, they were speechless when they saw the two of them embracing and showering each other with affection.

After all, it was a mutual consent relationship, and they were too embarrassed to break them up. Besides, apart from being siblings in name only, there really wasn't anything else between them. If you had to add one more thing, it would be that fate dictates that subordinates can't kiss their superiors, but now fate only has remnants left.

"By the way, Fafnir, you said before that you went to see Rita and the others, right?"

"Yes, I have seen him."

"How are they? Are they alright?"

It was impossible for Theresa not to worry about Rita and Durandal. Although they had been enemies during the rebellion a few months ago, they had worked together for a long time before that. Moreover, Rita was the exclusive maid of the Shaniat family, and they could almost be considered family. Theresa could not completely ignore Rita's safety.

The same applies to Durandal. Although she is now an S-class Valkyrie, Durandal is considered Theresa's junior. She received a lot of help from Theresa in the past, and the two can be regarded as both teacher and friend.

In response to Theresa's persistent questioning, Bai Jie gave her a reassuring smile: "Don't worry, they're fine. Schicksal has been re-established with Vienna as its center."

"Vienna?!"

The three immediately lost their composure, with Raiden Mei saying in a panic, "I remember that's the area with the highest concentration of Honkai energy, right below the old Schicksal headquarters, where they established a base..."

"They'll be attacked by Honkai Beasts one hundred percent, and there will definitely be a lot of them," Bronya added with a serious expression. "Are they really okay?"

"I already said there was no problem, why don't you believe me?" Bai Jie smiled wryly. "Well, just as you were worried, there are thousands of Honkai Beasts over there, including several Emperor-level Honkai Beasts. When I arrived, Durandal was facing two Emperor-level Honkai Beasts and nearly a thousand Lower-level Honkai Beasts all by herself."

Two Emperor-level! Nearly a thousand Lower-level Honkai Beasts!

This is beyond what an S-class Valkyrie can handle. Even the strongest S-class Valkyrie is only one person, and facing an army of that size would be certain death!

"But, as I said, with me here, even though there seem to be many enemies, it's just a matter of one sword strike from me."

That's right, it really was just one sword strike. The Black Sword of Nightfall finished it off with a single blow. The greatsword, hundreds of meters long, fell from thousands of meters in the air, with the added gravitational acceleration buff. To be honest, if Bai Jie hadn't controlled the force, that single strike from the Black Sword of Nightfall could have flattened the entire city of Vienna, and would have done more than just create a crater.

It should be noted that the Fourth Ancestor's familiars are all monsters specializing in destruction.

Upon hearing Bai Jie's words, Raiden Mei and the others exchanged glances, all displaying expressions and eyes that seemed to say, "I just don't believe it."

"Fafner, I'm not trying to discourage you, but I know you have strength comparable to an S-class Valkyrie. But to say you could kill so many Honkai Beasts with a single sword strike... I really don't believe it."

Bronya agreed with the headmistress's point of view and judged that the captain was 99.99% likely to be exaggerating.

"Captain, this is not the time for jokes. Are Miss Rita and the others really alright?"

Bai Jie was speechless. Why is it that these days no one believes you when you tell the truth?

"Alright then, if you don't believe me, I'll show you the live broadcast."

Magic spread from beneath Bai Jie's feet, outlining a magic circle on the floor that encompassed everyone. Ripples spread through the space, and the surrounding scenery immediately began to spin rapidly like a carousel.

Theresa and the other two were instantly terrified.

"Huh? What's this?"

"Quantum teleportation? No...it's not."

"Captain, what have you done now?!"

The three, who had never experienced teleportation before, panicked. However, they only had a few seconds to panic. Before they could finish speaking, they found themselves on a desolate street. Not far away, Vienna's famous Golden Church stood in a half-ruined state.

Upon seeing the Golden Church, Theresa exclaimed in surprise, "Is this Vienna? How did we get here?"

"Geographically speaking, we traversed over 8,000 kilometers in just three seconds, which completely defies basic physical laws..."

"What exactly did you do, Captain? Is this some kind of illusion?"

Bai Jie waved his hand at the three who were panicking again, signaling them to calm down: "This is indeed Vienna. If you don't believe me, Bronya, you can use Heavy Bunny to check our location."

"Furthermore, what I used just now wasn't some kind of scientific technology, but genuine fantasy technology, which is magic. To put it simply, it's the kind of spatial teleportation that often appears in novels."

"Magic? Teleportation?"

Theresa and the other two had big question marks on their foreheads, clearly still a bit confused. But that's understandable, because apart from the unscientific Honkai Impact 3rd, everything else in the Honkai Impact 3rd world is quite scientific (referring to Welt's repeated resurrection). As for magic, which is unscientific, the three of them had only seen it in games, novels, and anime.

"Judging from your expressions, I can tell you still don't understand. I'll explain it to you properly when I have time, since it's quite troublesome to explain."

"Now, I'll take you to see Rita first, but they probably haven't gotten up yet."

It's a little past noon in China, which is only a little past 5 pm in Vienna, still the early hours of the morning. Rita and Durandal must still be asleep—unless Rita is working overtime again.

"Well, if all else fails, I'll give Rita and Durandal a 'refreshing' buff. I guarantee they'll be so energetic that even sleeping pills won't be able to save them."

----------------

An hour after Bai Jie and his group left the coffee shop, seeing that they still hadn't come out, the coffee shop waiter went into the private room to ask how they were doing. After all, it was quite rare to see customers stay in a private room for more than an hour.

However, after knocking on the door for a minute without anyone coming to open it, the waiter hurriedly pushed the door open and found the private room completely empty.

"Holy crap! They dined and dashed!?"

Section 426 has not been approved.

The content of this chapter has not been approved.

Section 427, Chapter 10: The new pool has lost everything!

Bring Himeko home!

Bai Jie's words evoked a complex mix of joy and doubt in everyone present.

The joy stemmed from the fact that Himeko, whose whereabouts had been unknown, could finally return, while the confusion arose from not understanding why Bai Jie had said he could bring Himeko back.

"Dude, are you serious? You really can bring Himeko-sensei back?!"

Among the crowd, only Kiana seemed unusually excited, so much so that she couldn't contain herself and gripped Bai Jie's shoulders tightly with both hands.

For Kiana, Himeko's existence was of extraordinary significance; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her her savior. If Himeko hadn't sacrificed herself to give Kiana the God-Slaying Spear, she might still be the Herrscher of the Void, intent on destroying humanity.

Although Kiana was suppressed by Sirin's consciousness during the battle in the imaginary space, she still retained a certain degree of clarity. Therefore, she heard clearly what Himeko said to her at the end.

Therefore, Kiana has an extremely strong sense of respect for Himeko, and if possible, she really wants to see Himeko again.

Seeing Kiana's overwhelming excitement, Bai Jie chuckled and flicked her forehead: "Look how excited you are. When have you ever seen me lie?"

“Indeed, Himeko has fallen into the imaginary space, and it is not even known whether she exists. But I can turn back time in the imaginary space to when Himeko first entered it and bring her back from that time when she had just fallen into the imaginary space.”

Reverse time.

This was the simplest way Bai Jie could think of to find Himeko. If he used a more drastic method and really searched every corner of the imaginary space, who knows how long it would take to find her? Perhaps by the time Bai Jie found Himeko, the real world would have been destroyed by the Honkai.

Therefore, although it would consume a considerable amount of his own power, Bai Jie still decided to bring Himeko back by reversing time.

"Is reversing time really possible?"

Durandal frowned. It's no wonder she had doubts. Time and space have always been the most taboo and unknown areas. Even with Schicksal's advanced technology, there is still no device that can interfere with time and space—except for the spacetime fracture system, but that was developed based on the power of the Second Herrscher.

Pulling out a shikigami talisman from his pocket, Bai Jie said, "The shikigami inside this talisman is named [Water Spirit White Steel]. Its ability is time reversal, although it can't rewind time in detail or on a small scale."

The eleventh familiar of the Fourth Progenitor corresponds to the Aquarius familiar, Water Spirit White Steel. Its ability is an expanded version of the vampire's regenerative ability, possessing a destructive healing ability that cannot be described as healing. The Fourth Progenitor's extraordinary immortality is completely inseparable from this familiar.

"Well, you might not believe me if I just tell you, so I'll let you experience it for yourselves. Kiana, open the door to the Imaginary Dimension, let's go and bring Himeko back."

"Ok!"

Kiana couldn't wait to stand up, her eyes turning completely into a dazzling golden color. The power unique to the Herrscher was released from the Herrscher core within her body, and three orange wings of light unfurled behind her.
