Honkai Impact 3rd experience, starting with a thousand Herrschers

The deity shifted its attention and saw a withered scarecrow emerging from a dream... That was the sea of ​​consciousness of the Lawgiver of Knowledge.

With a mere wave of his hand, the deity easily erased the scarecrow. But the various thoughts and longings that had gathered together merged into this space at this moment, and the originally pure white deity opened a pair of sky-blue eyes.

"who I am?"

It began to think.

Chapter 88: She and the Pigeons

"This simulation has ended."

Cheng Xing sat up from his sofa with a headache, looked at the neatly arranged documents in front of the coffee table, and then felt the Herrscher core that was still present in his body. He raised his hand and tried to do something, but nothing happened.

"...Those guys are really gone forever."

"In this simulated evaluation...the person who received the evaluation was...the emotionally driven rash one."

"Because of your extremely emotional actions, the original plan was rushed ahead of schedule, and much preparation and work was not completed. So you only gave the gods a basic ability to think, without much emotional influence. You made everyone fail because of your inexplicable sentimentality. You didn't even bring much change to the world. You are a foolish brute."

"Reward: Your emotions cannot be rewritten."

Cheng Xing felt the Herrscher core within his body, trying to find some connection with others, but indeed there was no connection except for Vayte... Perhaps the gods had already closed the passage at this time, and he could no longer reach that pure white space to see Him.

"Forget it, let's go to Paradise instead."

At this moment, Cheng Xing finally decided to express his desire to go to Paradise to Gray Serpent. He wanted to meet that Mebius, that so-called memory body, to see if he was different from the Mebius he knew.

"Crow, what's the matter?"

Gray Snake's almost emotionless voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Grey Snake, I heard that officers are going to a place called Paradise of the Past for training or some kind of experience. I feel that it wouldn't be a good thing for me, as an officer, to become an exception. So, should I go?"

"…………I understand. I will arrange it immediately. Wait for my notification."

Cheng Xing put down the phone and decided to go see Bronya and Sirin again.

This simulation involved so many things. First, I doubted whether I was a virtual being. Then I participated in a lot of experiments and experienced the emotional impact of the souls of many dead people. Finally, I went directly to face the gods.

Then, in the end, due to the lack of resistance to Honkai, and the fact that her body, which was once considered a Herrscher, was mutated by Honkai energy and turned into a wooden puppet, she was finally killed by Mebius himself.

It feels like I've been through a lot, yet there's a strange sense of dreaminess. But one thing is certain: I've added another dark chapter to my history.

Cheng Xing spent some time before returning to St. Freya Academy. This time, he didn't plan to interact with the two girls in person; simply observing them from afar for a while would suffice, since the time they had been apart here probably hadn't even exceeded a day.

Cheng Xing stood on the treetop, quietly observing the people on campus. He saw Bronya in her dormitory breaking game records time and time again, trying to reach the top in the game "Kallen Fantasy".

Kiana is currently being kept in class by Himeko for extra lessons, apparently because she skipped a lot of classes a few days ago after sneaking out to play by climbing over the wall.

Mei was already preparing dinner in the dormitory. She knew that although Himeko-sensei was very angry about Kiana skipping class, she would not keep her there so long that she would miss dinner.

Theresa was sitting in her office, with the door locked, swinging her legs and intently reading the latest issue of the Houmu comic in her hand.

Cheng Xing couldn't help but recall himself, playing games in another world and watching them through his phone screen. Now, he was able to witness their real-life situation in the real world.

In an instant, for some reason, a strange sense of unreality appeared on my body.

"You've come to see them."

Just then, a strangely familiar female voice suddenly rang in his ears, causing Cheng Xing, who had transformed into a crow, to have all his feathers ruffled.

Cheng Xing turned his bird head toward the source of the sound and saw an incredibly strange creature sitting on the other side of the treetop, silently watching him.

Cheng Xing glanced at Kiana, who was sitting in the classroom, looking at her book with a troubled expression, and then at the person next to him who looked exactly like Kiana.

"...Are you...the End?"

Cheng Xing asked the question with a trembling voice. To be honest, he might not even be as strong as he was in the simulation when he was in that pure white space.

After all, in that pure white space, one essentially possesses an inexhaustible supply of Honkai energy, just like in the Infinite Power mode.

Moreover, in that state, he also had flocks of crows formed from the souls of several cities' dead humans.

So now I still feel that I am just as weak.

"No, I... I am the god who separated from you... That's what you call me, right?"

"We just parted ways... System! What the hell! Why wasn't it affected by the simulation?! I don't think something without feelings could affect me!"

Cheng Xing shouted in his heart.

"Hmm, host, a character who exists independently outside the timeline cannot be affected by the time fallacy, so he is an independent person outside the timeline, just like you. To others, your future is their past, but to Him, your future is also His future."

"Ah, there's one more thing. It has feelings now, but they're very weak. It's only just learned to think for itself. Please don't insult a newborn life."

"Because of this matter, the Imaginary Tree and the Quantum Sea have increased their attention here. I need to concentrate on fighting them for a while, so I'm logging off now. Goodbye!"

"Hey! I get the feeling you're running away. Weren't you so powerful before? Why are you acting like you're running away now?"

[That's for fun, of course!]

The system regrets that it cannot materialize; otherwise, it would take out a handful of sunflower seeds and start cracking them open.

He looked at the jet-black crow and thought the black color wasn't particularly attractive. Then, with a gentle touch, the jet-black crow transformed into a pure white dove, and He held Cheng Xing in His hands.

"........."

Both were unusually silent, neither knowing what to say. One was a pure white being who had just begun to think and had no idea what communication was. The other was trembling, so afraid that he couldn't utter a word, like a pigeon about to be cooked.

Chapter 89: Heh heh!

Cheng Xing felt his feathers being gently stroked by the person behind him. He turned around and saw Kiana, whose face was expressionless, gently stroking him. Although her sky-blue pupils were exactly the same as the girl's, they did not contain any warmth or sunshine, but rather a strange sense of indifference.

"...You, were able to come into this world?"

After a period of internal struggle, Cheng Xing finally spoke, asking the question. He really didn't know if he would be crushed like an ant, since he was now truly in her hands and had no room for resistance.

"I've always had the opportunity to enter this world, it's just that there was never any need for it before."

Kiana answered Cheng Xing's question.

"Then why did you come into this world looking like this?"

"Because I feel I should look like this."

"Kiana" didn't have her hair tied up like the Kiana sitting in the classroom. Instead, her long, silver-white hair was naturally flowing down her back, giving her an inexplicable beauty, a feeling akin to that of a goddess.

"So what is the purpose of your coming into this world?"

"After you gave me human thought and emotion, I felt that staying in that space would be very boring, so I wanted to come to this world to see what your life is like. I want to observe you."

She answered Cheng Xing's questions as if she were answering every single one, without saying anything else.

"...So, what kind of existence is humanity to you? And can the Honkai be defeated by humanity as it is now?"

Cheng Xing finally asked the question that was on his mind most. Although he knew from his previous understanding of the Honkai series that Honkai was a test for human civilization, and that as long as the test was passed, Honkai would become a harmless energy source, allowing humanity to set foot in the stars.

This also seems to be a phenomenon of the struggle between the tree of imaginary numbers and the sea of ​​quantum numbers.

"This is just an exam, I don't care about the results. If we're talking about winning or losing, humanity is no match for the Honkai now."

After saying that, Kiana continued speaking before Cheng Xing could even ask a question.

“The destiny of your world has not been fully committed to the exam, so it is very difficult for you to pass at present.”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xing understood. Who else in the Honkai Impact 3rd world could be considered a destiny? Who else but Otto? After all, he was the only one so far to have transformed the world into the beautiful form he desired.

"...I want to know, is the reason you became like this influenced by that world?"

"Honkai Impact 3rd, right?"

"...How do you know this name?!"

Cheng Xing trembled as if struck by lightning once again.

"Your personalities, carrying your core, became the keys to your emotions and were given to me, along with the scarecrow that entered the space through the green consciousness. Through them, I pieced together your entire life. I can see your time travel, your system, your experiences... It is because of these things that I have the ability to think, that I have emotions, and that I want to observe you, to constantly get closer to you, and to complete myself."

"hiss!"

Cheng Xing gasped, vaguely sensing that his act of imbuing the gods with emotions might cause some unpredictable changes.

Kiana gently stroked the pigeon in her hand. She had been stroking it since earlier. She wondered if she would rub it until its skin was bald.

"I don't know if having feelings is a good thing or a bad thing, but I'm glad that I can truly think for myself."

Kiana's lips suddenly curved into a faint smile, and she smiled shyly like a literary girl. In that instant, Cheng Xing felt as if he saw the real moon goddess smiling gently at him.

“I will watch over you, my apostle.”

When Cheng Xing came to his senses, he found himself still standing on the treetop, his feathers still black. He had simply been watching what was happening on campus, as if what had just happened was just an illusion.

"...Damn! Those guys granted a god emotions, and that god even has all my past memories, which means He saw everything I did in the past!"

Cheng Xing recalled many things: embarrassing childhood memories he still remembered, various jokes that happened as an adult, and all sorts of strange and unusual things he had browsed...

Oh my god!

Cheng Xing let out a shrill scream in his heart, and then he suddenly saw the god who looked exactly like Kiana appear beside him again.

"Does my apostle have something to say about me?"

"...Ah, I just wanted to ask, what kind of person am I to you?"

"...I don't know. It feels very complicated. Based on my current way of thinking, I can't accurately say what position you hold in my heart, but I feel that you are a very important apostle to me, an important subject of observation for my understanding of various human behaviors."

With the god gone, Cheng Xing no longer knows how to plan to defeat the Honkai. That god is right beside him; what should he do?

Moreover, now that the deity has completed the emotional arc, her people are probably even more difficult to deal with. Speaking of which, she actually knows about Honkai Impact 2... Holy crap! If Honkai Impact 2 really did contribute, then I should probably try to win over the deity myself. At least that's more realistic and objective than defeating her.

"Host, I think both of these possibilities are quite high. You see, defeating gods doesn't necessarily have to be done through physical means. We can use some clever little tricks to achieve this goal! As long as you watch more... hehe! Then I will simulate a character who can hypnotize gods for you based on your strong inner desire... then, hehehe!"

The voice the system used at this moment sounded like the hoarse and terrifying voice of an old man, like that of the Soul Palace.

"...So, system, can you simulate Honkai Impact 2?"

"...Are you serious? You're not planning to challenge that hellish difficulty world, are you? Just so you know, the time period I simulated for you isn't the Zero Era, but the game, specifically the Honkai Impact 2 that connects countless worlds."

"That represents the world with the highest combat power and the most exaggerated world domination in the Honkai series."

"...But only in this way can things begin to change, right? God, I see no hope of being defeated in this world."

"So why don't you consider simulating that kind of character, and then... hehehehe!"

"...Classical Chinese!"
