Where is the third collapse? ! !

According to an investigation by Shigure Kirara, who does not want to reveal her name, even Cecilia, a Saint of Shaniat who is absolutely beautiful, is not as popular within the Sky Mandate as Theresa.

After marrying Siegfried, they were on equal terms, and after giving birth to Kiana, she even had the upper hand for a while.

reason?

Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Evil thief!

Theresa herself was not tired of these guys. If the conditions did not allow it, she would have gouged out their eyes one by one.

Now it’s okay. Don’t ask. The only thing you’ll know is that I, the dean, am deeply in love.

Do you know what a flash marriage is? Flash marriage! It's all the rage now. Look, even rings are worn on the middle finger! Do you want me to raise my middle finger and show you?

What? Who is your fiancé?

Who do you care who your fiancé is?

He himself doesn't even know!

What's more, she didn't recognize him at first because of the huge age difference, but after so much time, Theresa could barely recall the little guy who followed Kiana stealthily and fascinated her.

Just consider it as compensation. At least use your identity as a fiancé to warn those people in the Senate not to extend their claws too far.

After all, the real Kiana had already...

"That's it, I understand."

Seeing Theresa's sorrowful expression, Incresine consciously changed the subject: "Since you're going to disobey the orders from headquarters, you should have a good reason."

"There's no manpower available to investigate the damage from the Third Honkai Impact."

"Are you sure it will take that long?"

"What do you mean by 'waste'? What do you mean by 'waste'?"

Theresa rolled her eyes and shouted, "Which specific locations did the Herrscher of Thunder attack? How many square centimeters did Shesha affect during the battle? How many cubic meters of soil were destroyed? How much area was affected? How much impact will the scattered Honkai energy have on the land in the Far East, and how many years will the impact last? How can you know this data without investigating it? Wouldn't it take months to investigate all this?"

Hearing this, Incresine fell silent.

Damn, he really deserves to be the next bishop!

Chapter 7: The Eternal Flame

"Thanks! Kiana!"

"it's okay no problem!"

“Oh, it’s so hot!”

"When the front horns of the Flame Slinger come into contact with the human body, they generate a lot of heat. Move aside and leave it to me."

"Commander-level Honkai beast breaks through the blockade of Area A!"

"Rules are meant to be broken!"

"Wow! Kiana-senpai is so reliable! I have to work harder too!"

"Hehe~"

Kiana waved to the C-rank Valkyrie who thanked her, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and watched happily as they transported the dismembered Honkai beast limbs into the ship's warehouse for digital compression.

Next, these materials will be transported to the scientific research department under the Far East Branch for research and processing, and used to create various weapons and equipment, or raw materials and experimental materials for artificial stigmata.

"You have a share of it too."

Ji Zi, who had come to her side at some point, said.

"our?"

The girl looked over and found her sitting in a wheelchair waving at her.

There was a light blue liquid in the high-hanging IV bottle that was shaking irregularly, flowing evenly into the blood vessels under the skin along the infusion tube and the indwelling needle.

"Yes, yours."

Jizi smiled and said, "Theresa has told me everything that should and shouldn't be said."

She meant that Ali attributed the credit of killing the Herrscher to her aunt!

When the external brain is not around, Kiana's smart IQ will take over.

The girl's thoughts turned and she understood the hidden meaning of Ji Zi's words.

"It has nothing to do with me, hehe."

The white-haired boy touched the back of his head and smiled innocently: "It's mainly because Ali is so good, and besides—"

"Kiana!"

"Hey! Here they come!"

After responding to the voice calling her from afar, the girl, who had just rested for a while, clapped her hands and stood up: "Someone over there is asking me for help. Teacher Jizi, let's talk later."

"Need not."

A pale hand pressed on her shoulder, Jizi turned the wheelchair around, and roared towards her with a devilish look:

"I'm telling you guys! Even if the girl is kind-hearted, she can't stand being bossed around like this! Do your own work! Stop relying on others all the time!"

"Ah! Yes! It's my fault for not being considerate enough, Major Wuliangta!"

The Valkyrie captain who had just spoken quickly saluted, gave Kiana an apologetic look, then turned and left quickly.

The elder sister withdrew her gaze and snorted coldly: "These little devils."

"It's okay, actually."

Kiana struck a Hercules pose, beaming: "I have a lot of strength I don't know where to use it anyway, so I'm really happy to be able to help everyone."

"The premise is that you can't overdraw yourself."

Jizi nudged her chin: "Push me for a walk?"

"Huh? Oh, good!"

The girl reacted quickly and walked behind her, pushing the wheelchair slowly along the road.

The treetops sway gently in the evening breeze, as if nature is slowly turning the pages of a book.

True red and pure white stroll along the path, and the harmony of their backs penetrates into the heart.

When they reached the deserted edge of the border, Ji Zi whispered, "Are you worried about something?"

Previously, Incresine had said similar words to Kiana.

In response, the girl chose to remain silent.

Facing the other person who was now sitting in a wheelchair, even though they had only met once, Kiana couldn't help but nod slightly.

It was as if it was not the first time they met, but rather they were teacher and student who had known each other for many years.

Ji Zi asked again: "Can you tell me about it?"

"It's not a big deal."

Kiana stopped and unconsciously clenched her hands as she spoke.

He gazed up at the dark horizon and said in a seemingly nonchalant manner, "I just feel like I'm not strong enough, I should do better... that's the way I think."

Whether it is good or evil, Kiana has seen a lot in her four years of wandering.

But overall, her trip still took place in a relatively peaceful area and time.

Because of this, the girl was so shocked when she witnessed with her own eyes the Valkyries' determination to use themselves as bait to attract the Honkai beast tide.

Plots like self-sacrifice are very popular in novels and animations, but it is a completely different concept when it happens right in front of you.

When she later learned that even when facing Shesha, a judge-level figure, Fuli still rescued the seriously injured and dying Wuliangta Jizi right under his nose, the shock reached another level.

Now, whenever Kiana has some free time, the scene before her departure keeps playing out before her eyes.

My face is scratched, and I don't want to live anymore.

Those were all lovely girls around her age! They should be running around the campus, laughing, having sweet romances, and being cherished by their families until they were afraid they would melt!

If only Ali had been there! If only I could have become even stronger!

They...they won't sacrifice themselves so easily, right?

'Crack!'

The sharp sound of steel breaking suddenly rang out, and the tingling sensation in the palm of her hand woke Kiana up as if from a dream. She found that she had accidentally crushed the handle of the wheelchair.

"Ah! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr. Himeko!"

The big white cat who had caused the trouble clasped his hands together and kept apologizing. When Qiaomimi raised his head and observed through the slit of his eyes, he saw the corner of Ji Zi's smiling mouth.

The girl felt a lump in her throat and for some reason she suddenly felt like crying.

"A mere alloy fragment certainly can't pierce the skin of a B-rank Breaker, so I won't ask if you're okay."

Jizi didn't care about the grip at all: "The content of your thoughts is exactly what I guessed. I had similar thoughts when I first stepped onto the battlefield."

"Teacher Jizi has also had that kind of experience?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Kiana wanted to slap herself in the face. Isn't this clearly poking at someone's sad past?

"Of course."

Ji Zi curled her lips. "Don't talk about the past. Even now, I've been thinking, 'If I were a little more capable, wouldn't I have to entrust the Crimson Knight Sword to a boy the same age as my student?' I feel like even my adult dignity has been trampled underfoot. How great would it be if I were still your age? Then I could confidently snuggle in the arms of the boy I love and watch him save the world, and all I would have to do is look beautiful and cuddle up to him and act like a spoiled child."

The girl laughed dryly: "Ah, ahahaha..."

"Okay, just kidding."

Ji Zi put away her complaining expression and waved behind her: "Come, come to me."

"Ow."

Qibao didn't understand what was going on, but she just walked around it obediently.

"Squat down a little."

"Ah."

"Move your head a little further."

"it is good."

Kiana did as she was told, and was then given a light kiss on the forehead.

"This, this, this! You, you, you!"

The girl covered her forehead that was kissed and stepped back repeatedly. Her little face, rich in collagen, was rosy and so cute.

At the same time, some mysterious information also entered her brain along with the kiss just now.

That was the training method for the lower-level technique of the Crimson Knight Sword—the Fire King Sword (B).

"This is a thank you gift! For our little hero."

Jizi winked at her and said, "A thank you for defeating the Herrscher and saving us."

Qi Maomao was incoherent: "Give it to Ali, why did you kiss me?"

"I've prepared a thank-you gift for that young man. Don't worry, it won't be worse than what you gave me."

The underlying meaning is that this is a gift from me specifically for you.

"But I clearly!"

"I know what you're thinking."

Ji Zi waved her hand to interrupt her: "You feel that you don't deserve my gratitude, that you are not strong enough to reverse the tragedy happening before your eyes, and that you are a useless person who can do nothing."

Well, it hasn't reached this point yet...

The girl thought awkwardly.

"But if I follow your logic and continue to dig into this dead end, who is the most useless person?"

Ji Zi sneered, and her choice of words was like an incoming rainstorm and strong wind.

"First, there's Cocolia, who committed the sin of greed! Because she couldn't dominate the organization, she was forced to trigger the Third Honkai Impact to achieve her goal!"
