I'm going to kill everyone who calls me Hill.

Xier looked around while walking towards the city gate.

"stop!"

Just as Xi'er was about to pass through the city gate, she was stopped by a soldier. He stood in front of Xi'er and asked, "Are you a traveler or a merchant?"

"Ah? I...I was just passing by."

Xier replied, pointing at herself.

"Pedestrians go through the side door. Pedestrians are not allowed to pass through here."

The soldier pointed to a small gate nearby, where many people were queuing up to enter the city.

"It's so troublesome..."

Xier muttered softly, and then she asked: "Brother, has something happened here?"

"You do not know?"

The soldier looked at her in surprise, then pointed to a notice board nearby and said, "There has been some unrest in the martial arts world recently. It is said that more than ten people have died in the city next door, so the entire city is under martial law, and anyone nearby is strictly checked."

"That's it..."

Xier nodded, thanked the soldier, and then walked into the queue of pedestrians to wait.

(Oh… this is really troublesome. Why don’t you just go in directly? These guys can’t stop you.)

"Yeah, that's right, but...wait! Who are you!?"

Xier heard someone talking and answered subconsciously, but she immediately realized that the voice actually came from her mind.

Shocked by her discovery, Xier didn't realize she was still in the team, so she shouted out. This shout made everyone look at Xier.

"puff"

Xier, who just realized what she had done, instantly blushed and quickly covered her face.

(Hahaha! You are so funny!)

The voice in her mind rang again, and this time Xier heard it clearly.

(Who are you?)

Xier asked in her heart, how come she didn’t know that there was someone in her consciousness!

"Of course it's me!"

As the voice appeared again, a figure appeared beside Xier.

The man had gray hair and black clothes, with a golden bird-shaped ornament on his head and black clothes embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns. The most shocking thing was his red eyes. Unlike Hei Xi's, this man's eyes were a flame-like red.

Xier looked at the uninvited guest in surprise. She actually felt that this person looked somewhat familiar.

"You are... Fu Hua?"

Xier hesitated for a while and then said that although she remembered Fu Hua's appearance very clearly, although this person looked like Fu Hua, she did not look like Fu Hua at all, and there was a hint of stupidity in her pupils.

"Fu Hua... I... am not wrong... it's just... hey! Forget it! I am Fu Hua!"

When Fu Hua heard the name Xier said, she hesitated for a moment, then frowned and thought for a while, and finally agreed readily.

"Why are you here with me!"

Xier said vigilantly. She didn't think that her own consciousness space was a hotel where anyone could come. You have to know that the consciousness of three people in total can withstand a considerable amount of mental attacks.

"Oh, what are you talking about? I am a Herrscher, the Herrscher of Consciousness. I can go wherever I want, and no one can stop me!"

The Herrscher of Knowledge put his hands behind his back and put on a proud look.

"Herrserk!!"

Now Xier was even more surprised. How come she didn't know that there was a Herrscher in her consciousness!

"Hey, don't just stand there. People around here can't see me. Let's go! Let's go into the city first."

The Herrscher of Consciousness said this as he pushed Xier towards them.

After passing the inspection at the gate, Xier finally entered the city.

"Hmm~ Not bad, although it's not big, it's still quite prosperous."

The Herrscher of Knowledge looked around and then said with satisfaction.

Xier followed behind her silently. After the conversation just now, she found that this guy with Fu Hua's face who called himself a Herrscher had a very strange personality. To put it nicely, he was cheerful, but to put it bluntly, he was stupid. Although he looked reliable, he was unexpectedly like a child.

"Hey... who are you..."

After thinking for a long time, Xier finally asked. She still didn't quite believe what this guy said about the Herrscher. In the world of Honkai Impact 3rd, the first Herrscher was born in Berlin, but now it is ancient times and it is impossible for a Herrscher to appear.

"Who am I? Good question!"

The Herrscher of Knowledge clapped his hands happily and said, "At first I also wanted to know who I was. Am I Fu Hua or someone else... But then I gave up thinking about this question, and then I met Kiana and Old Antique and suffered a loss, so I simply set out to find my true self."

"?"

Xier typed a big question mark, Kiana? Old Antique? Although she didn't know who Old Antique was, Kiana would only appear in the future of this world. Since she knew Kiana, how did she get here?

"I don't know how I got here. I was just wandering around and ended up here."

The Herrscher of Knowledge seemed to see Xier's doubts. She spread her hands and looked helpless. Then she put on a smile and said, "Okay, okay! Don't look at me like a rare animal. After all, I am a Herrscher! If I'm not happy, I will get rid of all of you!"

She clenched her fist, as if simulating squeezing someone to death.

"Ah this..."

Xier looked at the Herrscher of Consciousness and for a moment she didn't know whether what she said was true or false. If it was really as she said, then Xier really couldn't beat her. After all, it is quite difficult to defend against consciousness.

"Hey! Do you want some snacks? I just saw some for sale around here."

However, while Xier was still thinking, the Herrscher of Consciousness had already run out like a happy husky, looking around, relying on the fact that he would not be seen, and sometimes went to check the food stalls, and sometimes went to fiddle with the silk and satin selling cloth, so lively.

"hiss……"

Xier felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest. Oh my god, she is a Herrscher, why is she walking around like a child? Where is your pride as a Herrscher? Where is your pride in destroying humanity? How did it become appetite and fun?

"Why don't you speak?"

After running around, the Herrscher of Knowledge returned to Xier and asked her when he saw that she was still in a daze.

"Oh yes, you are like this. You were like this before, like a little rabbit."

However, before Xier could answer, she gave the answer on her own.

"You knew me before?"

Xier raised her eyebrows. She didn't remember meeting such a person before.

"It was during the Chinese New Year. Oh no... that was you... I see!"

The Herrscher of Knowledge fell into deep thought as he spoke, then he smiled with a healthy smile as if he had suddenly realized something and said, "Oh, don't worry about it! Let's go!"

"what……"

While Xier was still in a daze, she was pulled by her to a shop nearby. Xier had no choice but to accompany her shopping, and the two of them shopped together until the evening.

"Hmm~~~~"

The Herrscher of Knowledge stretched himself, then looked at Xi'er and said, "It's really interesting. I didn't know there were so many fun things at this time. The old antique guy is really something. He doesn't know how to walk around more often. He stays in Taixu Mountain all day, practicing and exorcising demons. When he has nothing to do, he just sweeps the floor. It's really boring."

"That's true. I didn't expect there would be so many things here. It really opens my eyes."

Xier nodded. After playing with her for half a day, Xier finally understood the 'Fu Hua' in front of her.

Just as she said, she was indeed a Herrscher, but now she was just a conscious body. Her original body was given to the real Fu Hua according to her words. But no matter what she said, Xier thought that she was having a quarrel with Fu Hua, and then ran away from home in anger.

However, contrary to Xier's expectations, although she knew that she was a Herrscher, she still considered herself to be Fu Hua, but she separated herself from Fu Hua, which surprised Xier.

"Well, I'm very happy today. It really makes a difference to walk around more."

The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at the sunset in the distance and said happily, "Very good, it's settled. I want to travel with you!"

"what!"

Listening to the Herrscher of Consciousness talking to himself, Xier widened her eyes in surprise.

"It's decided. I'm sleepy. I'm going to bed first. Bye!"

Before Xier could say anything, the Herrscher of Consciousness turned into a stream of light and returned to Xier's body, making Xier laugh and cry.

"It seems like you're going to sleep here with me! Don't treat this place as a hotel!"

Chapter 3 Night Raid (?)

That night, Xier lay quietly on the relatively comfortable bed, looking quietly at the window that let in the moonlight.

Xi'er originally thought that the Herrscher of Knowledge was just talking about rest. After all, how could a Herrscher feel tired? She must want to go out and play again in the middle of the night. So Xi'er had already prepared to accompany her to the night market, and even secretly investigated what fun places were nearby.

However, the truth was beyond Xier's imagination. When she waited until the sun went down, the merchants closed their stalls, and the nightlife of this small town began, the Herrscher of Consciousness was still sleeping soundly in her mind.

After waiting until midnight, Xier finally realized that she seemed to have thought too much... That guy was just a child, tired from playing during the day, and fell asleep without thinking about anything...

“Ahhhh! How embarrassing!”

When Xier thought about how much preparation she had made for someone she was meeting for the first time, she couldn't help but toss and turn in bed, covering her head with the quilt to ease the embarrassment.

"It's all her fault. Who would have thought that a Herrscher would actually sleep?"

Xier muttered to herself angrily.

"Gragra..."

However, just when Xier couldn't sleep and was about to get up to see the moon, she suddenly heard a few footsteps above the inn where she was.

Although the other party had carefully slowed down his pace, the roof was covered with a layer of tiles, which was still very obvious in the quiet night.

"There are still people here at this hour? No, this situation is like some robbery or thief in a novel!"

When Xier was bored, she also read several martial arts novels from China, in which there were many scenes where the protagonist caught a thief in the middle of the night and accidentally found treasure.

"Want to go take a look..."

Xier was a little undecided, she didn't want to get involved. But because she had prepared too much before, Xier couldn't sleep now, and there was nothing to do in this quiet night.

"Why don't we just follow them and take a look..."

Xier suddenly remembered the notice given by the soldier guarding the city gate. Could this be a fight between gangs?

Having decided this, Xier leaned against the window and climbed out of the inn.

Unlike the locals who can fly, Xier can fly, so she is not afraid that anyone will notice her. After all, who would look up at the sky in the middle of the night?

Xier stood quietly in the air searching for the breath of those people who had passed by the roof before, and soon found their traces above the inn.

Those guys really looked like bad guys, wearing black night clothes, and blended perfectly into the night under the dim moonlight. It was a pity that this little trick couldn't fool Xier at all.

I saw those people quietly peeled away a tile and looked inside.

One of them said, "Brother, this is it. According to Xiaoliu's report during the day, the rooms above are occupied by outsiders, and none of them have any background."

"Okay, that's the guys. Hurry up and don't let anyone see you."

The man called Big Brother waved his hand, and several people behind him quickly crawled into the inn.

"What are you doing? Kidnapping someone?"

Xier didn't expect that these people were actually doing this kind of business, specializing in kidnapping strangers.

Xier didn't move. She wanted to see what these people wanted to do. If it was what she thought, she would follow them and destroy their lair. Such people deserved to die a hundred times.

Soon, several people came out of the room, and each of them was carrying an unconscious person on their shoulders. It seemed that these people were targeting people who traveled alone.

"Okay, it worked. No one did anything extra, right?"

"Don't worry, brother. We are a professional team."

The leader nodded in satisfaction, and then said, "Let's go, it's time for the inspection."

As the eldest brother waved his hand again, several people jumped down from the inn in tacit understanding, and then ran into an alley skillfully. It seemed that this was not the first time they did this.

Xier watched all this with a frown on her face. She didn't expect to see such a thing just after arriving in this world.

Watching the few people turn into the alley, Xier followed them.

Just as Xier thought, although the few people paid attention to the patrols around them, they did not notice that there was someone following them in the sky.

The few of them quickly ran out of the city according to the planned route and came to a dense forest in the suburbs.
