Honkai Impact 3: Saving the former civilization by rubbing the black technology

"Come to think of it, the singer of the background music sounds familiar."

Destobia frowned in thought, then asked, "Could it be Eden?"

"Of course, she also made the music herself,"

Alicia said proudly, "Although the film is short, it is undoubtedly a big production!"

There's super AI responsible for special effects, there's the world's top singers responsible for music, and then there's people like her...

“Actually, there are still some problems.”

Kevin suddenly said, "Alicia, you used too many special effects in your debut scene. It looks a bit exaggerated."

"Oh, no, that's not the case."

Alicia's eyes widened immediately and she began to explain, "That's what a beautiful girl like me looks like when she appears on stage!"

"It does seem a bit..."

Kosmo, who was standing by, also recalled, “Is the filter too pink?”

"It seems that everyone still has aesthetic taste."

Ai Yue nodded and added the final word, "So we will use another version when we release it."

"Hey, why is this like this!"

Chapter 19 Can this be broadcast?

"Hey, have you heard?"

In a school in a city in China, a boy who was dozing off in a corner seat was suddenly awakened by a shaking. He raised his head sleepily and saw his friend looking at him mysteriously.

"Ah? What did you hear?"

The boy rubbed his eyes and gradually regained consciousness. "Oh, you mean the new game that will be released next week?"

"Of course not, and wasn't the release date of that game announced a long time ago?"

Seeing the boy's appearance, the friend simply pulled a chair over and sat down. "Hey, you guys, you're not going to play games until midnight again, are you?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

The boy nonchalantly propped up his face with his hands and looked out the window, "Anyway..."

No one could take care of him anyway - his parents had died in the tsunami that swept across Canghai City several years ago, and their bodies had not been found to this day.

"Your complete disregard for reality shouldn't be changed at least a little bit, right?"

My friend sighed helplessly. "Forget it. Anyway, someone posted a decrypted video about the Australian wildfires online—it's said it wasn't a wildfire at all, but another, even more terrifying disaster!"

"real or fake?"

The boy then turned his head with some interest. "Oh, but that's normal. After all, how could an ordinary wildfire burn down the entire Australia? But there have been at least 800 similar things in recent times. What did they make up this time?"

Although almost a year has passed since the Australian bushfires, there are still many doubts. After all, any normal person can understand that there are many doubts in this matter, and it cannot be explained by the simple statement of "wildfire out of control".

What kind of wildfire could spread across the entire Australian continent in a week, leaving fewer than 50% of people alive? If it were just a wildfire, firefighters would have been the primary concern. But why were there countless videos of the military intervening before the fire completely ravaged Australia?

Precisely because there are countless unexplained doubts in this incident, and because the relevant agencies have strictly deleted all news and videos related to the Australian wildfires, many so-called "truth videos" about the Australian wildfires have been leaked over this period of time.

These include but are not limited to things like "new weapons developed in North America are out of control", "volcanoes underground in Australia suddenly revived and erupted", "God wants to exterminate mankind", etc. At first, everyone was still interested in joining in the fun, but as more and more outrageous statements spread, everyone soon became bored with these things.

After all, there are constant natural disasters in this world. In the past, there were all kinds of tsunamis, storms, plagues and the like. Recently, there was also the huge explosion in Mu Continent. Everyone has obviously become numb to these things, and it will not have any effect to use random things to attract attention.

"This time is different, this time it seems to be real!"

My friend lowered his voice and acted mysteriously, "I have a video here, take a look!"

As he said that, he took out his mobile phone and opened a video directly.

The boy originally wanted to refuse. After all, he had seen too many people filming videos with serious faces trying to analyze the conspiracy. But this time it seemed really different, so much so that he was immediately attracted to it.

This is a very ordinary straight-shot video. There is no commentary and no mosaics. Instead, it directly presents everything to the audience and describes everything with pictures.

What came into view was a raging fire in the city and a flood of monsters that was overwhelming and almost swallowed up everything.

They trampled on vehicles, crashed down buildings, and destroyed everything they could see. From the video, the boy could clearly see the monsters killing and trampling the fleeing people. Life at this moment was as fragile as dead grass.

"what is this?"

The boy asked subconsciously.

He really wanted to say that all of this was computer-generated, special effects, and couldn't fool him - but there had to be a voice in his head telling him that it was all real.

"have no idea,"

My friend replied quietly, "I saw someone in the comments say it's a Honkai beast."

"Honkaimon?"

The boy was stunned for a moment, "Is it related to that Honkai disease?"

"have no idea,"

My friend shook his head and said, "Don't talk yet. The video isn't over yet."

The boy quickly shut his mouth because at this time, the perspective of the video began to change. It slowly moved and turned towards the direction where the Honkai beasts were attacking.

As the camera turned, a figure appeared in the boy's field of vision.

It was indeed a blurry human figure, and one could only barely discern her gender from her long hair and figure. Compared with the monsters around her, this figure seemed so small and slender, as if she would be shattered like those humans if any monster touched her lightly. However, no monster dared to approach her, and it was quite the opposite.

Even without any auxiliary explanation, the boy can clearly perceive from the picture that those monsters are slaves of this figure and they are driven by this figure.

And everything that happened next made the boy finally understand where the fire that burned the entire city came from.

The blurry figure waved her hand lightly, and a terrifying wave of fire spread out in all directions with her as the center, triggering a series of continuous explosions. Wherever it went, everything was reduced to ashes.

Is this... the truth about the Australian bushfires?

The boy no longer cared to distinguish the authenticity of the video, as he had already formed a vague judgment in his mind. He then swallowed his saliva, moistened his dry throat, and said in a trembling voice, "Send me a copy of the video."

"Just go watch it online. This video..."

My friend froze mid-sentence. He mumbled the rest of his sentence, his tone filled with realization, "This video hasn't been removed."

The boy was stunned for a moment, and then realized the problem - whether it is at home or abroad, online discussions about the Australian wildfires and other disasters have always been strictly controlled areas. Not to mention filmed videos, even if it is just a virtual image talking to the camera, it will be quickly banned and removed. How could such a video be let go?

Unless, the video itself is allowed.

The boy and his friend looked at each other in silence, both feeling a little strange.

It seems that some things have changed quietly.

However, before they could sort out their thoughts, a sharp and piercing alarm sounded across the sky!

20

Chapter 20: Run, Boy Run.

"This is an evacuation alert!"

The boy was stunned for a moment, then stood up suddenly and grabbed the schoolbag beside him: "Hurry up, take the necessary things and follow the route of the drill to take shelter!"

In this era of constant natural disasters, disaster prevention drills have become a compulsory course for people. From children who have just started school to retired elderly people, everyone must conduct disaster prevention drills at least once a week under the arrangement of relevant departments.

In schools, the importance of disaster prevention drill results is even greater than that of general course results. After all, life is the most important thing. If you can't save your life, no matter how good your grades are, it will be useless.

It is precisely for this reason that even the most mischievous students will participate in the drills honestly and not dare to cheat in the slightest.

As the evacuation alarm sounded, the originally noisy and chaotic classroom quickly formed neat lines. Everyone walked out of the classroom in order, connected with students from other classes and quickly ran out of the teaching building and ran towards the underground shelter in the school.

"Tell me, is this a real evacuation or just a drill?"

While waiting for action, the friend standing in front of the boy turned his head and asked, "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"

According to relevant regulations of Shenzhou, in order to ensure the authenticity of the exercises, the weekly exercises are not notified in advance and have no fixed time. Instead, they are conducted at random times to simulate real situations. Therefore, whether it is during meals, class, or even after school, there is a possibility of encountering exercise alarms.

Therefore, it is difficult for everyone to tell whether it is true or false this time.

"do not know."

The boy shook his head slightly, expressing his complete confusion as to whether the drill was real or not. "But I hope this is just a drill."

The two people who had watched the video looked at each other and saw a little fear in each other's eyes.

Before watching the video, their concept of disaster prevention was limited to earthquakes, tsunamis, storms and other phenomena. But if everything that happened in the video was real, then could the disasters they usually prepare for be related to the monsters that appeared in the video?

"It's our turn,"

My friend wanted to say something, but the team had already started moving. He then turned around and ran forward, "Hurry up and catch up."

"I'm much more physically fit than you, right?"

The boy rolled his eyes and followed closely behind his friend.

However, as soon as they walked out of the teaching building, they heard noise coming from the team in front of them. The originally orderly team became chaotic, and they could even see people running back and forth.

"What's wrong!"

The boy quickly grabbed the stranger who was running past him and asked, "What happened up ahead?"

"No, don't catch me!"

The strange boy shook his hand off in panic, leaving only a few words before running into the teaching building, "There's a monster!"

There are monsters.

The boy and his friend looked at each other, and both felt a chill climbing up from their tail vertebrae.

However, the reality did not leave them much room for wild imagination, because with a loud bang, the cafeteria located on the edge of the school collapsed, and in the huge smoke and dust, a terrifying figure was slowly walking out of it.

The moment he saw that figure, the boy's mind went blank - because it was exactly the same as a monster he had seen in the video!

The content of the video is true, and there is indeed a huge secret hidden behind the Australian wildfires.

At the same time, something that he had been deliberately ignoring also came to his mind.

So, could the tsunami that engulfed Canghai City and killed his parents be the same as the Australian wildfires?

"Everyone, calm down!"

At this moment, the teachers were also doing their best to maintain order, "Maintain formation, turn around, and go to another shelter!"

Although the teachers' faces also showed unconcealable fear, they still comforted the students with trembling voices: "Don't be afraid, the teachers will protect you! Run!"

Run? Can you outrun this monster?

Looking at the monster that was more than five meters tall, with extremely strong forelimbs, and could cross a distance of four or five meters with a slight move, the boy had this question in his mind.

But then, an idea overwhelmed his doubts and occupied his mind uncontrollably.

The average person definitely couldn't outrun it, but... maybe he could.

"Hold it for me."

When everyone was running away with their backs to the monster, the boy suddenly threw his phone to his friend, then ran past everyone and towards the monster.

"Are you crazy!?"

My friend called out from behind, “Come back soon!”

"I'll lead it away!"

The boy ran away without looking back, leaving only this sentence.

Yes, if this continues, many people will die before entering the shelter. If we want to avoid this result, someone must attract the monsters' attention.

The scene shown in the video of people being killed by monsters appeared in the boy's mind. He clenched his teeth and felt the blood in his body boiling.

Whenever he thought of his parents, he would go running, venting his inner pain and longing as he rushed around in circles, until he was physically exhausted, and then he could temporarily forget the emptiness in his heart and fall into a deep sleep.

It is precisely because of this that he is confident that he is faster than everyone in the school, even faster than monsters!

"Fucking beast!"

Approaching the monster from the side made the boy feel unprecedentedly refreshed. He swung his schoolbag with all his might and smashed it on the monster's head, "Look this way!"

The monster was indeed attracted by the sudden attack. It turned its head slightly and locked onto the villain who attacked it in some way.

Prioritize eliminating threatening units.
