It must be miHoYo's doing.

[Save me! Someone please——]

[Child...Where is my child...]

[Mom! Mom, wake up!]

These voices turned into sharp blades, slicing at her heart. Her nails dug deep into her palms, and warm blood dripped through her fingers, blooming dark red flowers on the charred ground.

"Move...Move!"

Kiana beat her numb legs fiercely, trying to awaken the Honkai energy in her body, but all she felt in response was a sharp pain like her meridians were being torn apart, as if thousands of red-hot steel needles were stirring in her bone marrow.

"Rustle, rustle—"

The sound of tumbling gravel made Kiana tense. She slowly looked up to see three Chariot-class Honkai beasts had surrounded her. Their jagged bone armor was stained with blood, and one of them had a half-cut police uniform hanging from its claws.

"I still can't change anything?"

"Heh..." Kiana suddenly laughed, tears welling up in her azure eyes. "What an ugly way to die..."

…………

On a road in Tianqiong City.

"Lord Raven! Team Seven is completely wiped out!"

The screams from the communicator caused Raven's golden pupils to shrink. She tumbled desperately to avoid the impact, only to be struck by a purple-black beam, instantly corroding the concrete into a honeycomb pattern.

"These aren't ordinary Honkai beasts!" She screamed and pulled the trigger. The specially made bullets exploded between the monster's eyebrows, causing a splash of blood. However, the wound began to heal rapidly. "No matter what I do, I can't kill them! These are bullets that are effective against Honkai beasts!"

Before he finished speaking, the ground suddenly shook violently. Raven stumbled to one knee, watching the ground in the center of the square bulge and crack.

"boom!!!"

Amidst a hail of rubble, a massive creature burst forth from the earth. It was a monster unlike anything seen before, its serpentine body composed of pure darkness, its head a single crimson eye occupying half its skull. Simply gazing at that eye, several World Serpent soldiers clutched their heads and screamed frantically.

"Holy...Temple-level?!" Raven's voice changed. "That's impossible! Sky City simply doesn't have enough Honkai energy to nurture—"

The monster suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and a dark purple beam of light over ten meters in diameter swept across. Raven desperately rushed towards the shelter, and behind him, he heard the sound of a building vaporizing.

"Retreat! Everyone retreat—"

Her order was drowned out by another beam of destructive light, and she herself barely avoided the beam. The huge impact pushed her into a distant wall, her body deeply embedded in the wall, and she lost consciousness.

Suddenly, a bright light emanated from Raven's pocket. The terminal bracelet he had snatched from Kiana earlier now glowed with brilliant golden light.

It was like a meteor, instantly rushing into the sky and disappearing into the horizon...

…………

Kiana leaned against the broken wall, her vision blurred by blood loss. The shadow of a Temple-class Honkai beast loomed over her. It slowly raised its scythe-like claws, the blade reflecting Kiana's pale face.

Is it...over?

In a trance, she saw many people's faces——

Principal Theresa's gentle smile as she held the bitter melon juice...

The energy drink Bronya silently handed over at the training ground...

The doting look Mei showed while cooking...

And, that smile of eager expectation from Mr. Himeko...

"Everyone... I'm sorry..."

The shrieking sound of claws tearing through the air was so close. Kiana subconsciously closed her eyes, but heard a clear "clang" sound -

The pain I imagined did not come.

She trembled as she opened her eyes, only to see a brilliant golden light streak across the night sky, hurtling towards her like a meteor. Wherever the light passed, the black mist dissipated, and the Honkai beasts roared in pain.

"What is that..."

"A shooting star?"

As the "meteor" approached, the light on it became brighter and brighter.

[Desire power exceeding the threshold is detected...]

[Contract signing space is being prepared...]

"Meteor" suddenly accelerated and wrapped around Kiana's wrist at the critical moment.

At the same time, the world seemed to have pressed the pause button at this moment, and the golden contract signing space unfolded, wrapping Kiana in it.

Kiana's eyes flashed before she opened them again, finding herself in a boundless golden space. Beneath her feet lay a mirror-smooth lake of energy, reflecting the stars. Above her head, a galaxy-like band of light swirled, its countless contractual texts flickering.

"Where...is this?"

She subconsciously raised her hand and found a light bond wrapped around her wrist, pulsating slightly with the rhythm of her breathing. What surprised her even more was that a translucent figure was separating from her body.

"Squad leader?!"

Fu Hua's shadow stumbled, seemingly unprepared for its sudden materialization. She glanced down at her hands, then around, a rare flicker of confusion in her usually calm eyes.

"Kiana...where is this?" Fu Hua's voice was a little weak. "I clearly fell into a deep sleep due to overdrawing my strength..."

Kiana was about to respond when ripples suddenly appeared in the golden space. A slender figure stepped onto the surface of the distant lake of light. Pure white hair fluttered in the wind of energy, and golden pupils shone brighter than the galaxy above—it was Tianming's spiritual incarnation.

"It's you?"

Tianming himself was somewhat surprised. He had been leisurely brewing tea in his Chenge pot, awaiting the merging of the two worlds, when he suddenly sensed someone had triggered the contract resonance on his terminal bracelet. Even more unexpectedly, the signatory was none other than Kiana Kaslana from the Honkai Impact 3rd Universe, which was about to merge with Blue Star.

Fu Hua instantly tensed up and subconsciously stood in front of Kiana: "You are...?"

"Relax~" Tianming raised his hands in surrender, a lazy smile on his lips. "I'm the creator of the terminal bracelet. You can call me Tianming, or the God of Prayer!"

Volume 1: The Birth of miHoYo: 080: Qi Tian Great Saint Kiyana~ (4/5)

"The God of Prayers?"

Kiana and Fu Hua repeated the name in unison, their expressions filled with the same suspicion. Fu Hua subconsciously took a half step forward, shielding Kiana behind her, a vigilant glint in her eyes.

"How dare you call yourself a god..." Fu Hua's voice was calm and restrained, "Your Excellency seems to be of great importance." Her fingers were slightly tensed, ready to attack at any time.

Yet Kiana's gaze wavered. She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms. The images she had just seen flashed back to her mind—the outstretched arms beneath the collapsing building, the sobbing silhouette of a mother clutching her child, the resolute determination of a father who had taken a fatal blow for his child...

"No matter who you are..." Kiana suddenly stepped forward, her blue eyes burning with determination. "I want to save everyone! To do this..." Her voice choked, "I'm willing to sacrifice my life!"

"Hey, hey!" Tianming took an exaggerated step back, crossing his arms in front of his chest and making a big "X". "What are you doing? Do you all think I'm an evil god?" He scratched his hair helplessly. "Why would I want your lives? I can't eat you..."

As he spoke, a golden contract materialized from thin air and slowly floated before Kiana. At the same time, information about the miHoYo World Rescue Mutual Aid Association trickled into her mind.

"Here~~" Tianming tilted his head, a sly smile flashing across his face. "Sign this contract, and you'll be a full member of our association." He snapped his fingers. "After that, you'll naturally gain the power you desire."

Fu Hua frowned. "Kiana, wait! This kind of contract of unknown origin should be..."

But before she could finish her words, Kiana had already bitten her thumb and pressed the blood droplet onto the contract. A golden light shone brightly, and countless runes flew out from the contract, wrapping around Kiana's wrist to form an exquisite emblem.

"Squad leader," Kiana turned around and smiled brightly, "I trust my intuition."

Fu Hua opened her mouth, but finally just sighed.

"Well then~" Tianming clapped his hands, "Let's start your journey of praying! New members will receive a 200 crystal subsidy~"

Kiana nodded, and immediately began to pray using the 200 crystal subsidy given to new members.

Press the Ten-Wish button twice quickly.

From Kiana's perspective, two drones dropped two containers, and 20 balls of light flew out of the containers.

Kiana looked at it nervously.

The result of the wish is 11 white, 5 green, 2 blue and 2 purple.

"Wow! I got it! This feeling is more addictive than playing card games!" Kiana rubbed her hands excitedly, "Am I lucky?"

"It's just a newbie bonus~" Tianming shrugged. "Let's start with the green one, it's more practical."

Among the five green-quality items, there are three energy balls, one tumor group, and two healing foods, all of which Kiana can use now.

"After our association's energy ball is absorbed, it will increase the energy storage limit of the members and slowly improve the energy in the members' bodies into high-level energy. It is green, safe and pollution-free. It can also suppress the consciousness in your body~~"

Kiana paused.

"You know the consciousness in my body? If I use this energy from the association to enter the Herrscher of the Sky form, will I not be controlled by that consciousness?!" Kiana's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Binggou~~You got it right, but unfortunately I won't reward you with crystal." Tianming spread his hands with a wicked smile.

"Hmph, stingy." Kiana puffed up her cheeks, but the excitement in her eyes did not diminish at all.

Fu Hua listened with trepidation. Energy capable of resolving the hidden dangers of Honkai energy? A method to suppress the Herrscher's consciousness? These were completely beyond her comprehension. As far as she could remember, even the most advanced technology of previous civilizations couldn't achieve this level of capability...

Kiana continued to open the light balls, and the two blue light balls contained a skill light ball and an equipment respectively.

[Equipment: Rule-Breaking Stick

"Why does this skill sound familiar? I feel like I've heard it somewhere before?" Kiana's attention was completely focused on the Seventy-Two Transformations. She touched her chin and began to think.

Fu Hua's temples throbbed. "...This is the magical power of Sun Wukong from Journey to the West." She held her forehead and sighed. "Didn't you watch cartoons as a child?"

Shenzhou already has "Journey to the West", so only Kiana didn't react to it.

"Ah!" Kiana clapped her hands. "I remember now! It's that monkey from 'I, Old Sun, am here!'" She danced with excitement. "Then can I be like him..."

Fu Hua was too exhausted to complain, but she was also momentarily in a state of even greater shock. The energy ball that had previously resolved the hidden dangers of Honkai had already profoundly altered her worldview, and now, with the appearance of a power only seen in mythology, what was the origin of Tianming? Was he truly a god?

However, in her inherited memories, those so-called gods were nothing more than humans capable of Honkai energy.

Moreover, that "Karen" seemed to have appeared in her memory, but she just couldn't remember it very well.

While Fu Hua was thinking, Kiana had already started to activate the remaining two purple light balls of Ermiao 2-winged ball daddy emu.

This time there are two skills.

"Great!" Kiana cheered. "Isn't this just like Sun Wukong's hair-like clones?" She suddenly pretended to pull out a strand of her hair, blew it in front of her lips, and then struck an exaggerated pose. "Go, little Kianas!"

Fu Hua: "..."

She suddenly thought that maybe letting Xilin control this idiot was not such a bad idea...

Volume 1: The Birth of MiHoYo: 081 Association Mission Released, Confused "Xilin" (5/5)

Kiana was excitedly discussing her newfound abilities with Fu Hua, the two chattering like two children discovering new toys. Fu Hua remained calm on the surface, but the glint in her eyes betrayed her curiosity.

"Look, squad leader! This 'rule-breaking stick' can actually forcibly interrupt other people's movements~">裠企鸸散靈 (IV)咎奇衣似

Tianming ignored Kiana and the others. At this moment, his expression suddenly became solemn, and his eyes penetrated the contract space and looked directly at the outside world.

The golden pupils reflected the scene of Tiankong City shrouded in black air - the wriggling darkness was like a living creature, devouring every corner of the city.

"Is this... the black energy of an alien evil?"

Tianming's brow furrowed deeper and deeper. With a slight movement of his mind, he silently read Kiana and Fu Hua's recent memories.

"Great! Those alien evil creatures!" Tianming gritted his teeth. "They actually launched a sneak attack!" He clenched his fists. "If Kiana hadn't activated the terminal bracelet, I might not have known anything happened here until the two worlds connected..."

But soon, his expression relaxed again.

"Forget it," Tianming shrugged. "With my current strength, it doesn't matter even if the Cocoon of the End is controlled by them."

Turning to look at Kiana who was still excitedly discussing, Tianming clapped his hands: "Alright, Kiana members, it's time to go save the world~"

Kiana immediately stood up straight, her eyes filled with gratitude: "Thank you, President!"
