The Infinite Journey of a Certain Flame

At this critical moment, Kiana, who was responsible for staying behind, decisively rushed forward.

A unique, clock-like pattern appeared on her back.

With just a sprint, the sound of a pendulum resounded throughout the world.

Immediately afterwards, a non-physical hemispherical object spread across the sky as if it had exploded, all in an instant.

The entire world was shrouded in a pale purple hue, as if time and space had been fractured.

Bronya's serious expression froze, and the two team members' attempts to provide assistance ceased.

The city fell still, the world fell still, and the flying syringe and its owner were both frozen in a stillness.

"I finally made it."

Kiana breathed a sigh of relief after entering a powerful spacetime rift at the last minute.

Although it wouldn't last long, she was confident she could save Bronya within that time.

"I just can't do anything with you."

Just as Kiana leaped into the air and flew toward her best friend with incredible speed.

Suddenly, she heard Celine's mutterings echoing in her ears.

"In the end, you still took action. Are you planning to resolve the difficulties without holding back?"

"I'm not quite sure how to take down the enemy while concealing my strength, but I will definitely not let her get hurt again."

After expressing her determination, Kiana hugged Bronya tightly without saying a word.

In an instant, the rupture in spacetime was broken.

Everything started to function normally.

The syringe that nearly hit Bronya was deflected by Kiana's intervention and flew off at an angle, landing on the ground with a 'clatter!'

"what!!!"

When the killing move failed, the nurse-like monster let out a chilling roar.

Her voice was sharp and piercing, as if something was tearing at your eardrums.

Upon hearing the roar, Kiana and Sirin both felt their ears ringing, as if they were about to burst.

This scene caused everyone to frown.

Is this her attack method?

"I don't know, senior! Hey! She's charging at us!"

Amid the exclamations of the two team members, the monster dressed as a nurse suddenly dropped to all fours and charged forward like a hunting cheetah.

Seeing this, Kiana didn't bother to explain and shouted directly at Sirin, "Now!"

"Oh? You really know how to order people around."

To be fair, Celine didn't seem to feel uncomfortable at all; she simply waved her hand quite decisively...

In an instant, the spatial cutting ability that had appeared at the dock reappeared, and this time...

Her target changed to the humanoid monster that suddenly attacked.

As the dividing line of the square appeared, the monster that was running wildly was suddenly imprisoned in place, and the purple special square covered it like a cage imprisoning its prey.

"I'll crush you!"

Celine gently raised her little hand, accompanied by a crisp snap of her fingers.

A dividing line appeared from the flames, cleaving the monster and the block into eight pieces...

Why is everyone so different now? (Post-Honkai Odyssey): Taking a day off

Uh, something came up today, so I'm taking a day off. I'll continue updating tomorrow, ヾ(?°?°?)ノ?

(zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz)

Why are we all different now? (Honkai Impact 3rd): Why is this Void Archive always causing trouble in Chapter 12?

"Hmph, vulnerable."

As the flames subsided, the poor nurse monster was cut into several pieces, eventually turning to ashes as the fire dissipated.

After the battle, Sirin sat astride her scissors with a smile on her face, as if she were mocking her ignorant enemy.

Seeing this, the two members of the third squad looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Has the headquarters' artificial intelligence development reached this level?"

"Hmm... I never expected that you would be able to gain such a powerful partner."

The two members gained a deeper understanding of Sirin's formidable strength, and at the same time, they felt envious of Miss Zhenqi for being able to obtain such a powerful doll.

Unfortunately, Kiana, the person involved, did not cherish this doll.

Wow! Sirin, you're amazing!

After putting down her best friend who had almost been in danger, Kiana immediately hugged the little guy in her arms and rubbed him against her.

The poor little guy didn't even get to look cool for three seconds before his owner treated him like a rag doll and roughly abused him.

The key point is that it was done in front of so many people!

"Let me go, you paramecium!"

The little guy tried his best to push Kiana's cheeks, but the other party was too strong, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free.

Finally, Bronya couldn't stand it anymore and coughed twice:

"Teammate, please stop messing with her, or it will cause a malfunction."

"Huh? How could that be?"

Reminded by her friend, Kiana belatedly realized that Sirin had just calmly and easily defeated a powerful enemy.

At this moment, his head was tilted to the side, his eyes glazed over, as if he had fainted...

"Uh, okay."

Seeing that this guy was so easily amused, Kiana could only scratch her head awkwardly.

I was thinking that if he woke up, this guy would probably be furious.

But now, she looks quite well-behaved, doesn't she?

Kiana carried Sirin on her shoulder and then asked Bronya, who was taking stock of the battlefield, "Where do we go next?"

"Phew, I don't know."

Bronya fired at the monster corpses with a blank expression, followed by a laser shot on almost every one of them.

They seemed very worried about any fish slipping through the net.

This behavior is generally called cleaning up the battlefield, and it's something that only experienced veterans would do. She never did this when dealing with assassins or Honkai Beasts before.

Are we starting to revert to our old habits when faced with these strange and unusual individuals?

"Ok?"

Bronya seemed to sense something and slowly turned around to look at Kiana.

"what happened?"

She put away her gun and continued to look at Kiana with a blank expression.

It was as if the danger just now had never happened.

To be honest, her reaction was quite surprising; it seemed like she was completely unaffected.

It seems like they don't pay much attention to the battlefield situation?

"How is the teammate?"

Just as Kiana was filled with doubt, Bronya suddenly turned her gaze to the little guy who had been knocked unconscious.

Upon hearing this, Kiana shook Sirin, who was still clinging to her shoulder and seemed unlikely to wake up anytime soon, and slowly said:

"It should be alright, right?"

"Is that so? Hmm... We need to explore further now, keep up with me."

Bronya waved her hand and winked at her two teammates.

After the battle ended, neither side lingered for a moment before setting off to explore the city.

The city was much quieter, seemingly because an unprecedented battle had ended.

Although there were still a few scattered enemies wandering around, they were almost all quickly taken care of by the team members.

Finally, after several battles, everyone discovered an elevator in the city.

"Hmm... something's wrong?"

Kiana fiddled with the elevator buttons and realized that it seemed to be broken.

She thought for a moment, then drew the Flame King Sword, her eyes narrowing...

"It seems so."

Just then, Bronya suddenly reached out and grasped Kiana's wrist, and calmly echoed her words.

Seeing her staring intently at her, Kiana, who had just drawn her sword, chuckled.

Bronya breathed a sigh of relief and then began to inspect the elevator.

Of course, her method of checking was actually to call out to the team members.

That is, Lyle, who is in charge of logistics and support, conducted the investigation.

After a brief investigation, Lyle spread his hands, indicating that he couldn't help.

His captain and teammates, who knew him well, expressed their doubts.

"Is there no way to fix it?"
