It must be miHoYo's doing.

"That's right, it seems that it was Teacher Jizi who saved Kiana. Those prediction bloggers are no match for her."

In the barrage, the audience rushed to discuss, and Lin Xiaosa also nodded, feeling that it must be Ji Zi who saved Kiana.

But the following plot left Lin Xiaosa confused.

Even with the Crimson Knight armor on, Jiko couldn't defeat the Herrscher of the Sky?

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Tesla activated the Moonlight Throne and teleported the Herrscher of the Sky to an unknown place.

However, just when the crisis was temporarily resolved, the camera suddenly turned to Ji Zi's back, and even the music became quiet, which made her father feel sad. Then Ji Zi set several flags as if she was telling her last words.

"What is...going on?" Lin Xiaosa suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

As the plot continues, when Jizi fights against Beibeilong, she is teleported to another dimension and meets the Herrscher of the Sky who was previously teleported here.

The Herrscher of the Void was like a queen, showing extreme contempt for Jizi. Jizi was also suppressed by the Herrscher of the Void, and all the audience were worried for Jizi.

But soon, the audience breathed a sigh of relief, but felt that the atmosphere was getting a little weird.

Teacher Jizi stood on the shattered ground, stepping towards the Herrscher of the Sky. The flames dyed her long hair blood-red. She raised the Divine Falling Sword and gave the screen a poignant smile. "Your attack... is over. Now it's my turn. Is that all right?"

Along with the battle and the sudden sound of the prelude to "Nightglow", Jizi's monologue also sounded in the background.

"Kiana, when you wake up, you will see that everything has changed..."

"You will find that this world is no longer beautiful, and those ordinary daily lives will be gone forever..."

"But don't give up. Never give up!"

Everyone's faces and their voices calling her name flashed before Jizi's eyes. She raised her sword and rushed towards the Herrscher of the Sky with all her might, cutting off everything!

At the same time, the singing of "nightglow" reached a climax!

"Kiana! Keep your head up! Keep moving forward!"

"Take this imperfect story and turn it into what you want it to be!"

The light of the explosion illuminated the entire screen, and Ji Zi's voice sounded again, but this time it really sounded like a last will.

"Stay alive... Kiana..."

Lin Xiaosa's vision was completely blurred. She bit her lips tightly and didn't even notice the taste of blood.

When the screen returned, millions of players around the world simultaneously saw an unforgettable scene on their mobile phone screens:

Ji Zi's Divine Falling Sword rested on the ground, and her body stood lifeless in front of Kiana, who had transformed into the Herrscher of the Sky.

"No...wait..." Lin Xiaosa's throat seemed to be blocked by something, and tears had already burst out. "This is impossible!"

Lin Xiaosa's fingers trembled as he tried to skip the story, but he found that the system had locked the skip function. He could only watch helplessly as the teacher who always drank red wine and made jokes slowly fell down...

"This is... the last lesson..."

…………

At 4:36 am, global social platforms suddenly experienced a strange outbreak.

#LastLesson# shot to the top of trending searches at an alarming speed, the word "explosion" following it blazing red. Countless players posted heartbroken emojis under the topic, some showing photos of tissues scattered across the floor, others showing photos of their own red eyes from crying.

Among these topics, one title stood out: "MiHoYo, you have no heart!!!"

Inside the Dust Song Pot, Tianming looked at the frantically jumping data with satisfaction: [Raiden Mei's Fantasy Points +1200] [Murata Himeko's Fantasy Points +980] [Kiana's Fantasy Points +800]...

"Master is so bad~" Meita said coquettishly, leaning on his shoulder, "Now the players won't be able to sleep."

Tianming chuckled and took a sip of tea. "We're just getting started. Wait until they reach Chapter 12..."

His gaze shifted to the trending search list, and the curve of his mouth deepened. That #Xiaoyu Technology Server Crash# topic had finally been pushed out of the top ten. Instead, it was filled with #miHoYo writers should be punished#, #Give me back Teacher Jizi#, and #This game is too hard#...

"It seems..." Tianming put down his teacup, and his Xingsha cloak fluttered without wind. "We have won this battle for the hot search."

As a result, Tianming didn't expect that Xiaoyu Technology would take advantage of this opportunity to make trouble and hired internet trolls again to say that Mihoyo did not respect the characters and wrote about their deaths at will.

Normally, no one would read such a negative article, but now the emotions of players around the world are broken and they need an outlet.

Then, the wind direction changed completely.

Players who were angry about Ji Zi's death pointed their fingers at miHoYo.

# Ten thousand people write in blood! Resurrect Ji Zi! Otherwise, I will quit the game! #

…………

The holographic projection within the Chenge Pot flickered violently, and the public opinion monitoring panel before Tianming was refreshing hundreds of angry comments from players every second. Meita's OL gear turned a warning crimson, and she anxiously pulled up the real-time data:

"Master! The abandonment rate has exceeded 15%! Xiaoyu Technology's online trolls are still fanning the flames!"

Tianming irritably ripped open his collar, the galaxy pattern on his star sand cloak twisting chaotically. With a flick of his finger, he called up a plan: "Immediately issue a 10-pack supply card, plus a set of four-star stigmata..."

"It's useless." Bronya's avatar suddenly connected to the communication, data streams flickering in her gray eyes. "Analysis of the latest trending words in the player comment section - Yi Ling Yi Shi Wu? 飼酒拍 - 'No benefits', 'Just Himeko', 'Resurrection'."

As if to confirm her words, the hashtag #10,000 People Write in Blood to Revive Jizi# on the security screens has already surpassed one billion views. A post that made it to the front page showed a screenshot of Jizi's dorm room in the game, with an unfinished glass of red wine on the table, captioned: "You also promised to drink with me for the rest of your life..."

Suddenly, a quarrel was heard from Bronya's side, and Kiana forced her way into Bronya's virtual projection. Her eyes were red and swollen like peaches, and the front of her white uniform was soaked with tears.

"President!" She sobbed and threw herself in front of Tianming, not even noticing her knees slamming against the ground. "I'll give you all the crystals! Please... please revive Teacher Jizi!"

Her terminal screen was still lit, displaying the ending scene of "The Last Lesson." Tianming was shocked - he thought Kiana had played the Last Lesson herself, but he didn't expect that even the person involved would be so upset when playing this part.

"You get up first..." Tianming reached out to help her, but the solid virtual projection of Kiana grabbed his wrist tightly.

"Mei said...that Himeko-sensei was protecting me until the very end..." Her nails almost dug into Tenming's flesh, "But I...I couldn't even say thank you to her..."

Meita looked at his master worriedly. Tianming was silent for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up: "Wait, resurrection... may not be impossible."

Although the Himeko in the game cannot be resurrected, the Himeko in the Honkai Impact 3rd world can still be resurrected.

If we follow Kiana's wishes and resurrect Himeko, and then let Kiana and the others start the live broadcast, wouldn't the crisis be resolved?

Brilliant starlight condensed from his fingertips, and the sky of the Dust Song Pot suddenly transformed into a projection of the Honkai Impact 3rd World. The technique that had once resurrected Kallen was reactivated, and countless data links poured down like a galaxy.

"Theoretically, as long as we rewrite the underlying code of the world bubble..." Tianming's pupils suddenly contracted, "What?!"

The feedback from the technique caused his arms to tremble violently—[Error: The concept entity "Wulianta Jizi" already exists and cannot be redefined] #印山^无:ニ轡

Tianming was confused. The concept already existed, which meant that someone occupied the concept of Ji Zi, and this person must be Ji Zi, but Ji Zi was already dead!

At this moment, Tianming seemed to sense something, and for the first time, an expression of extreme shock appeared on his face, and he looked towards somewhere on Blue Star.

"This...how is this possible?!"

Volume 2 must be done by miHoYo! 乆! : 044 A lucky but unlucky girl

"My name is Tang Guoguo. Both my parents are dead, so I'm an orphan. But now I have enough food and clothing because I'm lucky. I won the lottery, and I can get any multiple-choice question right..."

"But I hate being lucky..."

"A landslide disaster happened to me and my parents. We were traveling on a train at the time. After the disaster, I was the only one in our carriage who survived. Others thought I was lucky, but I thought it was because I sucked away the luck of those around me that they got into trouble."

"Then there was another time when I was outing with friends and I accidentally fell into the water and was swept away. In the end, I survived, but all my friends died."

"I've become a jinx in other people's eyes. No one wants to be my friend anymore..."

"I gradually became a loner. I was worried that I would suck the luck out of those around me and cause them to suffer misfortune."

"Just three days ago, I planned to end my life..."

"This world is not beautiful at all. For me, it is also full of darkness. I also... don't want to hurt others anymore..."

"But just two days ago, when I was about to end my life, Honkai Impact 3rd was launched."

"I couldn't help playing it for a bit, and then I got addicted to it."

"Fight for the good in the world! What a beautiful sentence, I thought at the time."

"I gradually fell in love with this game and every character in it."

"And when Mr. Himeko sacrificed himself to save Kiana, I cried for three whole hours."

"Then, I gave up on ending my own life. My world didn't collapse, there was no disaster, and although I have no friends now, I live a good life. Perhaps my parents didn't want me to die like this..."

"From now on, I will also fight for the beauty of the world!" I thought.

………………

The morning after the ninth chapter of Honkai Impact 3rd was released.

The morning in Shanghai always comes quickly. Tang Guoguo stood on the balcony, watching the first ray of sunlight pierce through the clouds, casting a golden hue on her small and dim apartment.

She stretched out her pale fingers and gently touched the computer screen where Ji Zi, who was standing on the bridge of her ship, was watching the Honkai Impact 3rd homepage.

"Teacher Jizi..." Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, but her fingers carefully avoided the edge of the character, fearing that her "bad luck" would tarnish the role she cherished most.

In the morning light, she turned and walked towards her closet. The door was covered in sticky notes. The latest one read, "Going to the flagship store to buy Himeko merchandise today!" There was a crooked smiley face underneath. This habit had developed after playing Honkai Impact 3rd. Before, her closet was empty except for dust.

The subway entered the tunnel, and the window turned into a blurry mirror. Tang Guoguo looked at her 22-year-old reflection in the glass—long black hair, an oversized sweatshirt, and those eyes that were always filled with melancholy.

She thought back to the train that had led her to her death seven years earlier. She was 15 years old at the time, traveling south with her parents when a sudden landslide buried the entire train car beneath debris. When the rescue team found her, she was stuck in a triangular gap, unscathed, while her parents...

"That kid is really lucky."

"What a lucky guy."

"So lucky..."

The neighbors' whispers entangled her like a venomous snake. What they didn't know was that she had just switched seats with her parents ten minutes before the accident.

As the darkness of the tunnel receded, Tang Guoguo subconsciously touched the faint scar on her left wrist. It had been left two years ago, when her best friends had gone on an outing, and...

"Next stop, Xujiahui Station..."

The sound of the radio brought her back to reality.

Arrived.

She tightened the strap of her backpack with Kiana's pattern on it and followed the crowd out of the car.

A long line had formed outside the MiHoYo flagship store. Tang Guoguo stood at the end, nervously counting the number of people in front of her—37. Should she be able to buy the limited edition?

"Do you like Teacher Jizi too?" A girl wearing a mask suddenly came over and pointed at the badge on her backpack and asked.

Tang Guoguo shuddered and instinctively took a half step back. Ever since that outing accident, she hardly dared to talk to strangers.

"I, I..." Her voice got stuck in her throat.

"I cried my heart out during our last class this morning." The girl didn't seem to notice her abnormality and continued to talk to herself, "Teacher Jizi could have escaped..."

These words were like a key that suddenly opened the closed door of Tang Guoguo's heart.

"Because she wants to save Kiana..." Tang Guoguo heard herself say, "Just like she said...to turn an imperfect story into something she hopes for..."

The girl's eyes lit up, and just as she was about to respond, the line suddenly became agitated. A clerk's voice rang out from the front: "There are only five limited edition Crimson Knight figures left!"

There were still a dozen people in the group ahead of Tang Guoguo. She bit her lip and subconsciously felt for her wallet—she still had some money left for this month's living expenses...

"Here." The mask-loving girl suddenly handed her a number card. "I made an appointment online. This is for you."

Tang Guoguo was stunned. She opened her mouth to refuse, but saw the girl had already turned and left, leaving only the words: "Fight for the beauty of the world!"

Outside, Lan Yue, who was waiting in a luxury sports car, poked her head out.

"Hmm? Sa-chan, who were you talking to just now? Is it someone you know?"

That’s right, the girl who was wearing a mask just now was Lin Xiaosasa. She and Lan Yue came here today specifically to buy action figures.

Sa-chan laughed. "Nothing. Just a girl who looked a little autistic. I saw she really wanted Jizi's action figure, so I gave her my extra number plate."

"Eh~~~" Lan Yue narrowed her eyes, "I didn't expect that Sa-chan, you are quite helpful?"

Lin Xiaosa curled the corners of his mouth and got into the car.

"Nothing, it's just that the girl looks a bit like me before I met you. I hope she can regain hope in life~~"

After saying that, Lin Xiaosa drove away with Lan Yue.

………………

ten minutes later.

Tang Guoguo was still a little dazed when she walked out of the flagship store, clutching the beautifully wrapped gift box. The sunlight shone on the gold-plated "Honkai Impact 3rd" logo, stinging her eyes.

She carefully unwrapped a corner of the package, and Ji Zi's dashing figure came into view. This was the first time she had gotten something she wanted so smoothly—no accidents, no one was hurt, just... ordinary luck.

On a bench on the corner, she trembled as she took out her phone and took a photo of the figurine. After much hesitation, she opened a social media app she almost never used and sent the photo:
