The system handed me over to the state.

"If only you had explained the limitations of choosing the power clearly from the beginning..."

"Well... if I told you, would you still make the same choice?"

Bronya tilted her head. Wait! What did you just say?

But before she could even react, a bright light flashed before her eyes, followed by a feeling of weightlessness and falling. This terrifying sensation suddenly ended a few seconds later, and she landed on a soft bed.

Bronya rubbed her soft little bottom, momentarily stunned. Was this... was she just thrown over here? Should she be glad she didn't experience 30 minutes of freefall?

"Is this...home?"

Bronya looked at the familiar layout of the room. Wasn't this the room she had lived in for two months?

Bronya got out of bed, her heels clicking on the floor, opened the door, stepped out of the room, and surveyed the entire house—it was exactly the same…

"From today onwards, this will be your dimensional home. I copied it from your home, and it will be exactly the same."

Bronya was startled by the system's voice that suddenly came from her ear: "Don't appear out of nowhere like this, it's scary."

"You said that without any of the frightened little girl's reaction. Don't forget, you're a fake 'three-no' right now!"

"you....."

"Alright! Here's your first mission. It's very simple. You're currently in Changkong City, where the Honkai hasn't broken out yet. Your mission objective is the very traditional hunting of assassins and Honkai Beasts. The number of assassins of different levels is calculated in a ratio of 1:35, and the same applies to Honkai Beasts."

"This is your dimensional base. You can open a door to this place from anywhere, but be careful. If you don't close the door in time, others can invade this place. And when you want to return, you can only return here. Returning from other places will fail because I cannot accurately locate you."

"Now, go and enjoy your mission, Bronya. You have a week to familiarize yourself with and take control of Long Sky City. Good luck!"

After saying that, the system's voice never appeared again. Back in the room, she opened the wardrobe, which contained neatly folded and separately stored women's tops, dresses, and skirts. The drawers below contained neatly folded underwear, stockings, and other items, since she had disposed of the men's clothing herself.

"A week?"

Bronya clenched her fist. This dress was a bit too flashy... She should change into something more understated and go out for a patrol.

"A week to familiarize myself with Changkong City, prepare the combat location, and... Qianyu Academy."

Chapter 4: A Stage Named Thousand Feathers

"There are so many people destined for this place... Did they foresee the collapse all along?"

Looking at these Valkyries who were trying to hide themselves and dress as plainly as possible, as well as some spies, Bronya felt a little confused. If Schicksal really sent so many people back then, how could the collapse of Thousand Feather Academy have turned out like that?

Why not just have all these Valkyries swarm in and end it? As for Mei-neechan's Herrscher of Thunder... um? Why did I call Mei-neechan?

Bronya was puzzled. She tapped her head, then gave up trying to figure it out. She picked up the warm milk in front of her, took a sip, and observed the beautiful city through the glass.

The collapse of Chiyu Academy did not affect the entire Changkong City. However, rather than calling it a collapse, Bronya felt that it was more of an experiment by Destiny, and coincidentally, Anti-Entropy also joined in. Moreover, Otto might hope that Kiana, the Herrscher of the Void, would awaken, rather than Mei, the Herrscher of Thunder.

Just then, a towering purple beam of light, accompanied by lightning, rose into the distance. Bronya looked up, and the people on the street cast surprised glances into the distance. Has it begun? The Honkai Impact.

Bronya finished her milk in one gulp, left the money, got up and left. Just as she got on the motorcycle parked in front of her door, she looked at the parking ticket posted on it, put it away expressionlessly, started the motorcycle, and headed straight for the purple pillar of light in the distance.

As Bronya left, the hidden Valkyrie of Destiny also began her operation, quickly dispersing the surrounding bystanders and sealing off the area around the collapsed Thousand Feather Academy.

Bronya, on the other hand, used the Herrscher of Reason's abilities to construct an optical camouflage device for herself, and brazenly charged right past the Valkyrie.

The Valkyries felt a gust of wind sweep past them and were momentarily puzzled.

Meanwhile, students and teachers within Chiyu Academy began to transform into suicide warriors, and the few girls who could resist the Honkai's corruption were quickly killed by them.

But there was one exception: a white-furred girl wielding a baseball bat, killing the assassins in front of her one by one with headshots.

As if it were an uninhabited land, they fought their way through so many assassins.

"Damn it! So many assassins? Is this a collapse?"

Looking at the Honkai energy concentration displayed on his phone, he cursed his dead father in his heart while trying his best to break through the encirclement.

However, there were simply too many assassins, forcing her to change course. She jumped out of the window, grabbed the window railing with one hand, swung herself down to the next window, kicked the glass, and rushed inside.

Then he collided head-on with a tall, slender assassin wielding two swords...

Kiana's lips twitched slightly... How could her luck be so bad!

.........

"Kill count: 78th. There are still too few assassins here. We haven't seen any Honkai Beasts."

As the Herrscher of Reason, Bronya was well aware of the impact her presence would have. Because of the Herrscher's presence, the Honkai energy concentration here would rise rapidly, and she herself would be in danger. Therefore, in order to prevent the white-haired girl from being unable to defeat the cook, Bronya only used the weapons she had prepared in advance.

A sniper rifle, two submachine guns, several grenades, and a Nepalese kukri—there are many black market arms dealers in Changkong City, and the control over weapons is far less stringent than in the original Shenzhou.

With a loud "biu~", another assassin fell to the ground, his body quickly turning into scattered white ash and disappearing, while the Honkai energy within his body was released into the air.

Bronya could clearly feel the Honkai energy gathering around her, and she could only try her best to repel it to avoid becoming the Herrscher of this central area.

Just then, a girl's clear shout suddenly rang out. Bronya quickly activated her optical cloaking device and saw a white fur ball waving a baseball bat and running fast, while a tall assassin wielding two swords was chasing closely behind her.

Bronya blinked. "Samurai assassins? Kiana, I didn't expect to meet you so soon."

However, ordinary firearms are ineffective against samurai assassins. These guys have a very fast reaction speed and can block bullets. Close combat is the most effective way to attack them.

Drawing her Nepalese kukri from her waist, Bronya dashed forward the moment the white-furred ball of fur focused on shouting for escape. A faint blue light swirled around her feet, and almost instantly, Bronya appeared behind the samurai. Her speed far exceeded the samurai's reaction speed!

A flash of white light, and the samurai was beheaded by Bronya. After landing, he quickly hid in the nearby bushes.

The fleeing white fluffy creature seemed completely oblivious to what was happening, its figure quickly disappearing from Bronya's sight. Was Kiana really that stupid? She didn't even notice.

Never mind all that. The most important thing now is to hunt down the assassins. 100 assassins will give her a low-level reward. She's very curious about what kind of reward a low-level reward will give her.

..........

"Your Excellency, the Honkai energy concentration within the Thousand Feather Academy has begun to surge, but an unexpected incident has occurred."

"Oh...an accident?"

Otto gently swirled the wine in his glass. "What unexpected event?"

"The Herrscher of Thunder, instead of the Herrscher of Void who should have awakened, was born. We also discovered an elusive intruder that is hunting assassins, and... the existence of Anti-Entropy."

Otto was silent for a moment, then looked up, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Interesting, very interesting. The Unknown Hunter, the Herrscher of Thunder, and Anti-Entropy—I never expected such a small academy to gather so many interesting people."

"Let's wait and see, Amber."

"Yes, Your Excellency, and also..."

"Next time, remember to finish what you're saying at once. I don't remember you having the habit of only saying half of what you mean."

Otto made a brief comment about Amber's strange habit, to which Amber apologized, "I'm sorry, Your Excellency, Miss Theresa has already started the Hyperion and is on her way to Changkong City. Her target... is very likely K423."

"There are more and more troublemakers, but that's alright. Let them perform to their fullest on this stage!"

"Don't let me down, dancers."

Otto looked at the electronic screen in front of him, a slight smile playing on his lips. He was looking forward to the day when the small stage he had prepared would become even more dazzling and magnificent!

Chapter 5: Durandal

"This is a low-level reward? It's too meager. They're just going to give me an EMP grenade."

Looking at the EMP grenade in his hand, which glowed with a faint blue light, he learned from the system that it was an EMP grenade used by Ghost agents in the StarCraft 2 universe. It could effectively deplete the Protoss's shields, paralyze mechanical units, and deplete their energy. Of course, in the real world, it could also temporarily render a person unable to move.

But the problem is, where do Protoss come from in the Honkai world? We don't need paralyzed mechanical units.

"Never mind... EMP grenades that can clear shields and paralyze people are a bit special, let's keep them."

Helpless, Bronya put the grenades away, picked up her binoculars, and leaned out of her cover to observe. She had basically killed all the nearby assassins, and the concentration of Honkai energy had decreased slightly, which meant that the cook had probably turned into a magical girl.

So now the fluffy little dumpling and the cook are probably having a love-hate relationship, and I'm just bored... Should I go check on them? Kiana's Friendship-Breaking Punch and Personality-Correcting Punch.

After thinking it over carefully, she decided to give up. However, just as Bronya was about to leave, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the sky. Bronya immediately did a forward roll, and the spot where she had just been instantly exploded.

"who is it?"

After regaining her balance, Bronya immediately pulled up her hood to cover her long hair and face. When she saw the white and blue spear stuck in the ground after the smoke cleared, Bronya was stunned.

No way... Durandal is supposed to be a character who appears much later in the story. Could it be that my appearance caused her to appear earlier?

No... please...

Bronya slowly turned her head, and sure enough, behind her, Durandal stood on a high floor of the building, arms crossed, her long golden curls swaying in the wind.

He just stared at Bronya without speaking or moving. Bronya silently loaded her sniper rifle and asked, "Who are you?"

"Durandal, the S-rank Valkyrie of Destiny, come with me, the unknown hunter, the bishop wishes to see you."

"What if I refuse?"

"You have no right to refuse. The weapon in your hand can't hurt me. Give up. I don't want to hurt you."

Bronya was caught in a dilemma: should she run away or go see Otto?

“I’m sorry, Bu… I refuse. I have no interest in seeing your archbishop, nor in getting entangled with you here.”

Bronya immediately raised her rifle and pulled the trigger. A bullet was aimed straight at Durandal's face. Durandal simply turned her head, and the bullet passed by her ear. The next moment, Durandal charged directly at Bronya, her fists aimed straight at Bronya. Since the other party was unwilling to meet her, then she would knock her down and take her back!

In close combat, he definitely couldn't beat Durandal. Even with Heavy Bunny, it would be difficult for him. Moreover, if Heavy Bunny's existence was exposed here, Bronya in this world would be in trouble.

Therefore, in order to ensure that she can see Bronya in this world again when she comes to this world next time, she has no choice but to hide.

Bronya still dodged Durandal's attacks by rolling, while Durandal followed closely behind, her fists and high heels constantly striking the ground after Bronya's dodges. In Bronya's eyes, Durandal was now like a humanoid Gundam, and wherever she stepped, the ground would shatter.

With a punch, she cracked the ground, and with another kick, she shattered it again. Just then, Bronya let out a cold snort, took out the EMP grenade she had prepared long ago, and threw it at Durandal's feet.

The pre-programmed grenades exploded the instant they landed! A powerful EMP storm erupted around Durandal!

After the EMP storm subsided, Bronya looked at Durandal, who was kneeling on one knee and paralyzed, and tossed the grenade in her hand. "Durandal, you are too confident."

"you...."

"goodbye!"

After saying that, she threw out the fuse, calculated the time, and threw it at Durandal. It exploded the moment it was about to hit the ground! At the same time, the ground on the top floor also exploded. As Bronya rolled, she deliberately guided Durandal to make a circular hole in the building. After all, it would be a waste not to take advantage of a free pile driver.

Bronya briefly paralyzed Durandal with an EMP grenade, then used the explosive force of the grenade to collapse the rooftop floor. After the falling debris buried Durandal, Bronya quickly turned around and rushed into the return space prepared by the system.

The moment the door disappeared, the ruins on the next floor exploded, and Durandal returned to the top floor. Looking at the deserted rooftop, she looked somewhat displeased.

"Your Excellency, she has run away."
