Starting with the Herrscher, mowing down enemies without equal.

Kiana seemed thoughtful. Did An Yu really not kneel?

Judging from this attitude of blaming both sides equally, it seems like a perfect match.

No! My dear girl, An Yu and his sister have an ambiguous relationship at home, and his sister even rewards him with kisses. Please don't fall for it!

"Are you guys serious about anti-entropy?" Alicia muttered.

It seems like neither of the two guys calling now takes the assault seriously.

Cocolia: "Who is Bronya talking to?"

An Yu was silent for a moment, then handed the phone to Bronya and took it from her.

"Teacher, it's me."

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded rather lazy; Einstein seemed to be eating…dinner, after all, there's a time difference between China and the Americas.

"How did you become like Bronya, learning bad habits?"

Alicia crept closer, and Ling, after thinking for a moment, also moved closer. Kiana, being more straightforward, leaned casually against Bronya, listening to the mother and daughter argue.

"...She might not be able to beat him by herself, and I can't just watch the boss cry."

Ein sighed: "You're just too soft-hearted. It would have been so much better if you had stayed in North America to develop your career."

Who has a soft heart?

An Yu was silent for a moment, then chuckled softly: "Am I worse than Bronya?"

"What is all this nonsense?! Stop trying to guess!" Alicia complained loudly in her mind.

Einstein replied in a friendly tone, "Yes, yes, you young people have the most backbone."

"By the way, it's going to be Anti-Entropy's 20th anniversary soon, don't miss it."

To be precise, it marks the 20th anniversary of the anti-entropy transformation.

Volume 1: Chapter 77-76 Collapse: Old Songs of the Past

After a brief chat about everyday things, An Yu hung up the phone. In her ear, she heard Bronya's voice suddenly rise, and the conversation between the mother and daughter had reached a fever pitch.

"Your teacher is so kind to you."

There was an unspoken envy in Alicia's tone. After all, the siblings had been orphans since childhood and depended on each other for survival. The role of elders was both unfamiliar and distant to them.

"Back then, when I asked you to come to America with me, you were quite reluctant."

However, returning at 2 o'clock doesn't affect 4 much. After all, he grew up here for so many years and has some attachment to his hometown.

"It's a mess over there, and they don't even ban guns."

Alicia complained that China was a vast and resource-rich land, and although it was very chaotic, at least its safety was guaranteed.

At the very least, guns should be banned so that you won't be walking down the street and suddenly hear a gunshot followed by a robbery.

An Yu strummed the guitar strings, shrugged, and didn't seem to care much. As for the process? It was not worth telling her older sister.

Bronya's tone, however, was less intense and more relaxed: "When that time comes, I'll be sitting at the door. I'm actually quite curious whether the three of you will fight when you come to pick me up."

After she finished speaking, there seemed to be silence on the other end of the phone. A moment later, the call was disconnected, and Bronya returned the phone.

what's the situation?

Bronya didn't see An Yu's curiosity, and even if she did, she didn't intend to answer. Kiana, who was standing next to her, lowered her voice and said, "Aunt Coco complained that Bronya doesn't find a partner, and if she doesn't have children in the future, no one will care if she dies."

They must have really gotten into a heated argument, otherwise they wouldn't have said such hurtful things.

However, the idea of ​​getting married and having children doesn't really have much appeal among young people.

The group remained silent for a moment, then naturally let the matter drop.

"You managed to fool them on that end?" Bronya composed herself, reverting to her usual cool tone.

An Yu nodded.

We're brothers, how could we not be convinced?

He figured his future path was pretty much set, and he wanted to stay in his hometown for a few more years so his older sister would be happy and she could spend more time with her friends.

Of course, if he were to choose again, An Yu definitely wouldn't come back. What kind of shady friends has my older sister made?

"What will you say about Anti-Entropy's anniversary celebration in a while?"

An Yu also changed the subject, asking, "The eldest brother had such a big argument with his family, he's not going to go back, is he?"

Lin: "Why don't you find an excuse to be absent?"

"Absent?"

Scattered Lonia seemed to have heard a joke; she was no longer a willful child.

"I can't possibly be absent. I'm counting on that anniversary to give me a reason to go to Anti-Entropy to get sponsorship."

She cleared her throat and added seriously, "After all, it's all for the studio."

Besides, rebellious as she may be, she's already 26. She just can't get over that mental hurdle. It's okay to lower her standards a little for practical needs and goals. Even though we're not blood relatives, we're still family.

Alicia was worried, feeling that her younger brother's college life and early working years were not as simple as he made it out to be.

After a brief coordination, Alicia adjusted the live streaming equipment. There weren't many songs; most were theme songs from the Honkai Impact series, as well as prequel theme songs that would be used in the future.

Why isn't the live stream starting yet? The streamer is so lazy!

I heard something happened downtown; a big company is bullying people.

Wow, you're so bold! Watch out for lawyer's letters from big companies!

Sakura opened the small window and noticed this comment. She was about to ask about the details, but the comment that had just appeared seemed to have been deleted.

She instinctively searched for the account, only to find that the level 1 accounts had already been banned.

Switching back to the live stream, the public opinion seemed perfectly normal.

[So, Bronya's gone solo now, right?]

If she achieves good results this year, can we then conclude that her past achievements have been meaningless?

Sakura slowly typed out a question mark.

[After all, she had only made it to the finals with the young lady from Destiny's Fate Group before; without Destiny's support, her performance had declined year after year.]

To be honest, this entropy reversal just won't work!

[What a mess that Alahato, the once wildly popular magic sword from E社, became after Anti-Entropy took it over.]

[Bronya, the chosen one at 18, wanted to start her own nomadic dynasty, but found she couldn't possibly carry Anti-Entropy!]

If they don't leave soon, they'll be forced to stand on the pillar of shame.

【What?! What rebellion against the Heavenly Gang?!】

Fun fact: E社 is the company behind Anti-Entropy, and the developer hasn't changed; Ryoma was just promoted.

So is it the online trolls who are making their move now?

Sakura was still in a daze when the comments section was steered in a very strange direction.

The unpretentious nature of the business battles left her with no choice but to turn off the live chat.

The dark screen suddenly lit up, and a fair-skinned little face instantly filled the live stream. Alicia winked playfully and slowly moved away so that everyone could see her face clearly.

"Hey everyone, did you miss me?"

"Why not start your day with a wonderful encounter with music?"

Accompanied by a familiar girl's voice, Sakura quickly noticed Rei's adorable, slightly dazed expression.

Phew, it seems that what happened this morning didn't affect Ling, so everything's fine. Just as she was about to close the live stream, she caught a glimpse of Kevin, who looked utterly dejected, as if he were watching from the sidelines.

It hasn't been easy for Kevin since he started a family.

Kevin really had it tough. After waking up in the middle of the night, the first thing he did was call May, and then... and then, oh no!

For the first time, he felt that life was utterly bleak.

"Young people are so energetic!"

The supervisor patted Kevin on the shoulder: "Why are you looking so gloomy? We should be happy to see our partner so energetic."

After all, young people are easy to fool. Although some young people may be quite cunning, they are still much better than those seasoned veterans.

Kevin had no way to express his suffering.

He's now hoping to end this collaboration quickly so he can go home and figure out how to resolve Mei's mental state issues.

The familiar Honkai Impact theme song, coupled with the main characters Kiana and Bronya, combined with nostalgia and popularity, placed this performance in a position that shouldn't have been its.

Ladies and gentlemen, something has suddenly come to my attention.

[Bronya, do you have this terrible habit of including your friends in your games?]

【Now that you mention it, An Yu... is truly pitiful!】

[Why do I say this when I'm new to this?]

[The men in the Honkai Impact series, despite possessing considerable strength or status, almost never have a happy ending.]

More than An Yu, I'm curious whether Miss Fairy will be included in the game.

[And the bassist over there, although he doesn't have much presence, he'll probably have a role eventually.]

[Wasn't Honkai Impact 3rd already over?]

Please see the live stream room name.

Honkai Impact 3rd new work: Old Songs of the Past

[Sadly, has Bronya finally succumbed to public pressure and started making a sequel to live off her past success?]

Believe first, then question – this is the duck we look forward to every year, the one that provides us with countless memes!

[Hilarious! They've got this joke going on every year, haven't they? But... I'm betting 50 cents that she can make history this year.]

Volume 1: Chapter 78, Section 77: So your name is Kevin!

"call."

After the performance ended, Bronya breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today's performance is more than just a show."

Her voice came through the microphone clearly: "As you all know, Reson Studio is standing at a new starting point."

Seeing that most of the comments on the screen were joking or silly, Bronya was not as easygoing as usual.

"The story of Honkai has accompanied us on a journey."

“But this time,” she paused, her gaze resolute, “I, Bronya, hereby swear that I will restore the glory of yesteryear!”

"Leading everyone to truly immerse themselves in a more complete and profound 'Honkai world'!"

She took a deep breath and dropped a bombshell: "If the new game released this year fails to surpass our past peaks in terms of reputation and sales, then I, Bronya, will permanently retire from the game development industry!"

The barrage of comments paused for a moment, then the buzz exploded.

Regardless of whether they're haters or haters, nobody wants to see this kind of scene. What's the point of the annual gaming competition if Duck doesn't contribute its meme-worthy expressions?

No, duck!

[We're counting on you for our annual emoji compilations!]

Are you serious?!

[Holy crap, no!]

[He's risking his career?!]

Seeing this popularity, Bronya nodded in satisfaction, but her standard pretty face still showed an extremely determined look.

Then other staff members released some basic world-building background information and character settings.

Classic high school savior, genius high school girl who can't cook, and evil doctor who is born with knowledge... These ideas flashed through my mind.

The scene then shifts to a tranquil and pure garden, where a slender hand gently brushes against the ground, creating a dreamlike atmosphere. The girl seems to be saying something, but then a bolt of lightning shatters the illusion, tearing everything apart.

[Holy shit! The cook!]

Is Mei the main character this time?
