Shooting Honkai Impact in a Collapsed World

"But I think that no matter what, when humans become accustomed to these behaviors, they will no longer be able to defeat Honkai."

Chapter 43 Rage against the World Serpent

[When Rita returned to Shencheng Medicine again to infiltrate, she didn’t know that her every move was completely exposed to the eyes of World Serpent’s leaders Raven and Jackal.

Raven admitted that her previous strategy failed, but she also prepared a back-up plan, which was to strike at the moment when Rita found the truth and relaxed her vigilance.As for the Jackal, he once again asked Raven to use the "gift" he prepared for her when taking action, and hoped that she could leave a living mouth for his research.

Raven emphasized that once she takes action, the experiment will immediately enter the countdown phase, and Jackal must get the data he wants before the Destiny army arrives.

Jackal understands the other party's concerns and promises that after this mission is over, she can have a new identity and fly away.And, before Raven wants to ask what happened to the people in the city after the experiment began, warn the other person not to apply sympathy to things that have no value.The compassion of the raven should be given to humans themselves.

Jackal went on to describe her views on Tianming. She believed that although Tianming was powerful, she had been seeking personal gain by fooling humans.And now, after the return of the World Snake Lord, he will clear away the control of destiny on the world and lead the transformation and rebirth of the world.Only in that world will the raven and the people it wants to protect find a place.

The raven was silent for a moment, then announced the start of the plan. 】

"Kiana, the people of your era were really pitiful." Pado couldn't help but said to Kiana, "The guardian of the world, Tianming, whose bishop is to resurrect a person, can be the first to collapse. He killed the heir he was optimistic about, and then crazily hindered and hindered him during the second collapse, and he allowed and even led all kinds of cruel human experiments."

"As for the World Snake, Jackal directly regards everyone in a multi-million-level metropolis as worthless things. That Lord Kevin doesn't know what crazy behavior he is going to do again. So, I always feel that your era The future is grim.”

"Pado, we are each other." Kiana believes that the future of human beings in this era is similar. "It is not certain what the future of our era will be like, but according to the original history, the era you are in is controlled by the Herrscher of the End. To those who perish.”

After saying that, the two people who had been off guard by each other fell into silence: "...Oh."

"Based on the conversation between these two World Snake leaders, we know that they are brewing a big conspiracy that will affect the entire Tianqiong City." Jizi felt that her head was getting bigger. "In fact, they didn't care about this conspiracy at all. It doesn’t matter how many casualties it causes, even if everyone in Tianqiong City dies.”

"Does this plan feel like Cocolia is alive?" Theresa complained helplessly, "Ordinary people have worked very hard to live, but there are always people who want to deprive them of their right to survive."

[Rita sneaked into the industrial area of ​​Shencheng Pharmaceutical, very skillfully avoiding patrol robots and cameras, and came to the database.

Here, she first discovered the medical aid plan of Shencheng Pharmaceutical, and discovered that since the second Honkai Impact, it had been continuously providing free special medicines and clinical treatments to people around the world who were affected by Honkai Energy.

Later, she discovered its research report on the Tianming Shenzhou vaccine and the fact that all 3 vaccines provided by Tianming this time were used.All investigations are vaguely pointing to a terrible result, but Rita still lacks a decisive piece of evidence.

Therefore, under the influence of her hunting suit and shadow iron armor, she learned that there was a Honkai reaction deep underground, and decided to put all the members of the Immortal Blade on standby while she went deep into the tiger's den.

In the basement of Shencheng Medicine, she was shocked to see that the space was filled with experimental cabins, and the experimental subjects inside were all dead soldiers with stigmata.These experimental subjects vary in height, size, and age. Some have Honkaiju tissue implanted in their bodies, and their bodies are covered with a white silicon-based shell.Some body parts were removed and replaced with electronic prostheses.

This place seems to be a grotesque human museum, showing intruders how far the human body can be transformed.

Rita stared at everything she saw in front of her, her whole body falling into a state of detached rage. 】

Everyone in the screening room was also frightened.Ordinary viewers and film critics may only find it creepy, but the warriors of the Fire Moth were just as shocked and angry as Rita in the movie.As nuns, Teresa and Apponia crossed their hands, closed their eyes, and prayed silently for these people in reality.

"Dr. Mebius, the relevant departments of our Fire Chaser should not have the situation shown in the movie." Kevin asked Mebius in a cold tone.

"I can tell you that if it was the previous Fire Chaser Moth, there was indeed similar behavior." Mebius was quite frank. "As of now, we have stopped some of the inhumane behaviors towards ordinary people. Those who participated in the experiment , basically those death row inmates with solid evidence. Of course, there are also some patients who are terminally ill and plan to take a chance, but they also seek the consent of themselves and their families. "

"Besides, Kevin, rather than questioning me, you should reflect on yourself. After all, that was what your cadres did." Mebius shot back.

"Of course I will reflect on it, even if I have no intention of doing so now." Under Kevin's cold voice, the anger burning like a flame could no longer be suppressed, "But in the future, I must reach Kiana's era. Kill the jackal with your own hands, and - 'me'!"

No matter how much contribution that Kevin made to the world, no matter how much pain and despair he experienced, even if he planned to die after everything was over, he was not qualified to decide the life or death of any innocent person!

"Theresa, after we go back, we will also apply to the headquarters to conduct raids on sacred medicines around the world." Jizi said to Theresa who closed her eyes and prayed, "Since the second collapse, I don't know if there are How many innocent adults and children have been persecuted by the World Serpent. As Valkyries, we must rescue those people, even if it is just to give them a belated relief."

"I know." Theresa slowly opened her eyes, "Also, Fu Hua, I want to invite you to participate in future operations."

"No problem, I will take action." Fu Hua clenched his fists, "But before that, I want to accept Otto's suggestion and repair my body through Tianming's most advanced treatment chamber."

Chapter 44 The invincible Rita falls

[In the basement of the Shencheng Pharmaceutical Industrial Zone, Rita searched for the information she was looking for through the main control computer - the Stigmata Project.

According to data, the stigmata is a precious legacy left to future generations by the disappeared former civilization. Human beings who carry the stigmata will have stronger Honkai energy resistance and control, and can then display all kinds of incredible powers.

However, due to human lineage inheritance, genes continue to mutate and exchange, causing the original complete stigma genome to eventually become separated.Therefore, even if every modern human being carries the stigma gene, only a handful of people can express it naturally.

The data also records that Tianming once imitated the stigmata, but the finished product, "artificial stigmata", was full of flaws and dangers.The World Snakes have made breakthroughs in research in this field. Through artificial intervention, they can activate and reorganize the hidden stigma fragments in human genes to fully express them.But this process is extremely difficult, and those who cannot bear it will die or even become walking zombies.Only a very small number of people have the strength to survive the collapse.

Because the current activation progress is too slow, they plan to conduct experiments in a densely populated city, namely Sky City.

Seeing this, Rita couldn't suppress her shock: "Experiment on the entire city's population? They must be crazy!"

"Sometimes, I feel the same way." At the end of the laboratory, the big screen suddenly lit up, and the figure on it responded to Rita's thoughts. 】

"This plan should be called the Stigmata Project, right? It's really a terrible plan!" Kevin commented, "Let the vast majority of human beings in the world die. If the number of survivors is too small, , even if they really have the power to survive the collapse, the entire human civilization will still gradually die."

"Even if civilization declines, it may weaken the power of Honkai, but if human civilization can develop again, the power of Honkai will gradually strengthen, and the world will fall into a new reincarnation." Su Ye believes that the Stigmata Project does not There is no value that can be extended to all mankind.

"I believe that the scientists of the World Snake will not fail to understand this truth, but they still choose to do this." Mei guessed the thoughts of Jackal and others, "It is because they blindly worship the authority of the World Snake Lord Kevin , or have you been driven crazy by the pressure caused by Honkai?"

"No matter what it is, I don't want this plan to be implemented." Pado hugged himself in fear, "A weak guy like me will definitely not be able to survive this experiment, right?"

"Pado, it's not you who are worried, but us." Kiana reluctantly advised, "That is a plan that will be carried out in our time, and it will not affect you. Having said that, I should be able to do it right away. It's great to see that Rita guy being deflated. It's a pity that Rita is not the real one in the movie."

"Kiana, isn't it inappropriate for you to say that about Miss Rita?" Seeing Kiana gloating about her misfortune, Mei reminded, "Miss Rita in the movie is also working hard for the people of Tianqiong City."

"Mei, you don't know, that unscrupulous maid Rita always uses various reasons to interrupt Sister Bianca and I when we want to talk." Speaking of this, Kiana became a little angry, " Moreover, she sometimes stares at me from a place I can’t see with a very scary look, which makes people panic.”

[After the raven on the screen said those words, Rita was surrounded by the Death Warriors and Honkaimon that appeared inside the laboratory.She informed Arvette to have the Immortal Blade prepare to join her.

Raven told Rita that she could watch everything in this laboratory to her heart's content, and the price was the lives of the latter and her team members.

Rita laughed disdainfully at the raven's threat.She is one of Destiny's most powerful S-class Valkyries, and her Immortal Blade is also Destiny's most powerful Valkyrie unit.Raven tried to take away their lives through these dead warriors and Honkai Beasts, so it could be said that she picked the wrong opponent.

In response, Raven spread a gas inside the laboratory. This was the "gift" carefully prepared by Jackal for Destiny's tracking troops.Rita still had no premonition of danger. After all, the hunting suit and shadow iron armor she used for this infiltration came with a gas mask.

However, Rita soon discovered something bad: the Death Soldiers and Honkai Beasts that surrounded her were retreating, and their bodies seemed to have been drained of power, gradually shrinking.

Raven "kindly" told the other party that what was sown just now was HSN-B46 serum, and Rita should know what it was.Because it was the work of a certain scientist from Destiny, a serum that could cause the body to collapse and quickly become inactivated and dispersed.Moreover, the version just broadcast has been improved. It does not require breathing, but only skin contact, making the Valkyrie just like ordinary people, without the power to fight back.

"Hmph, it's really an interesting irony to use weapons made by Destiny to deal with Destiny's own people." Raven mocked]

"It seems that Rita is still too young." Theresa commented old-fashionedly when she saw Rita shrinking twice in a short period of time. "First, when searching for information, she was too focused and neglected the enemy. Later, she was too focused on the enemy. When the enemy spread unknown gas, adequate precautions were not taken."

"Although she is an S-class Valkyrie, her qualifications are still too low and she lacks the stability like me. Otherwise, she would not have stepped into the trap set by the enemy so easily."

'Teresa, are you sure you are more stable than Rita? Jizi wanted to complain, but she was worried that if she said it, the other party would become angry and pour out all the beer she had in the refrigerator. So, she changed her words: "Maybe Rita is thinking about herself." With strength, you can be unafraid of any machinations of the other party. People with high abilities often stumble in some inconspicuous places. For example, in the movie, although she wore a gas mask, she did not expect that the other party was using a gas mask with skin. Weapons that work on contact.”

[Even though HSN-B46 serum was used, in order to ensure that Rita could be killed, Raven still sent out a specialized Valkyrie hunting weapon-the Death Weaver.Not only that, she also gave the same "gift" to every member of the Immortal Blade.

But Rita, who saw the heavy casualties suffered by her troops and the scars she herself suffered, actually laughed.

"You can still laugh when you see your comrades fall? What a cold-blooded guy."

"I was just thinking about how I should deal with you when you fall into the hands of fate..."

"Hmph, I hate people who can't keep their promises - kill her."]

Kiana: "If you lose, you won't lose. That guy Rita really likes to show off. But, next, it's time for me to carry everyone!"

Chapter 45 Saving Private Rita

["Kiana, it's time to wake up."

When Rita is in a life-or-death crisis, the movie goes back in time to a few days ago. A beautiful mountain peak appears in the camera, and the subtitle at the bottom of the screen is "Shenzhou·Taixu Mountain".

Kiana was awakened by Fu Hua in front of a house on this mountain, and was told by the latter that she was now in a dream, which was also the illusory realm opened up by Fu Hua through the key of God, Yu Duchen.Since what Kiana has learned in the past is not enough to deal with the upcoming danger, Fu Hua will teach her something here.

Kiana agreed with a calm tone, and because time passed at different speeds in dreams and reality, she learned a lot from Fu Hua and fought against the illusory objects created by the latter.Through continuous efforts and hard training, her strength has been greatly improved. 】

"I see, this is why Kiana was on a par with Rita when she fought against her before." Pado suddenly realized, "But it's really dangerous, especially fighting against imaginary things. In order to stimulate your own potential, you put yourself in a desperate situation. If you really die, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

"But that Kiana doesn't have enough time to slowly improve her strength in a step-by-step manner." Kevin was a little envious of Kiana for having this opportunity. "Mastering new skills in a dream is not enough." It will affect your mental state during the day. Although it is quite dangerous, it is worth a try."

"Brother Liang, can you do the same thing as Fu Hua in the movie?"

"Okay." Shao Liang nodded, "But just like Fu Hua said, if you die in a dream, you will become a corpse in reality. Moreover, I don't have the Fu to master Yu Duchen. Hua is as skilled as Hua. Therefore, I do not recommend ordinary warriors to enter the dream world to practice combat skills."

On the other side, Bronya was complaining about Kiana: "'Year rice and rice', you are indeed an idiot Kiana, she always talks about eating."

"Really, isn't this equivalent to letting everyone know that I am not good at idioms?" Kiana was a little depressed.

[Kiana not only consulted Fu Hua on combat skills at night, but also used her own methods to investigate the reasons behind the frequent attacks by Honkai Beasts in Tiandome City during the day.

Fu Hua was curious about when Kiana began to realize that the disaster in Tianqiong City was caused by someone behind it.Kiana replied that during an operation to clean up the dead soldiers, she discovered that one of the dead soldiers was the mother of a mother and son that she had rescued a month ago.

She asked Fu Hua if the Honkaiju disaster in Tianqiong City was a sign that the Herrscher of the Sky had awakened again in her body.She received a negative answer from Fu Hua, and the latter said that if it was the Herrscher personality in Kiana that attracted the Honkai Beasts, then they should also appear around her.

This made Kiana understand that Honkaimon and Death Warriors will always be attracted to places with higher concentrations of Honkai energy.She used thumbtacks on the map of Tianqiong City posted on the wall to mark the location of each disaster. Then, she discovered that these locations vaguely revolved around a center - the Shencheng Pharmaceutical Industrial Zone.

"Simple and effective thinking is really unlike you." Fu Hua looked at Kiana with admiration.

"Haha. The only advantage of wandering life is probably that it prevents people from becoming lazy... This is not the first time I have experienced this kind of life." Kiana replied calmly.

Then, because the two people's reasoning lacked conclusive evidence, Fu Hua proposed to take down the Tianming troops who were chasing them. After all, this was a cooperation between Tianming and Shencheng Medicine, and Otto would not allow anyone to make trouble in his name. .

And things progressed just as they expected, so Kiana also found a suitable opportunity to sneak into the industrial area. 】

"Oh, poor Rita, not only was she plotted by the people of World Snake, but even my niece was plotted against her to death." Theresa shook her head helplessly, but her face was filled with a proud smile, "As expected of my niece, great job!"

"Teresa, you're going to make Rita sad if you look like this." Himeko teased, "However, that guy Kiana is obviously very smart, but she behaves like a fool in school. It looks like she often fails exams. 'The only advantage of wandering life is that people can't become lazy', right? Even I was deceived by her."

"Wait, Kiana, I will 'love' you well when I go back." Jizi showed a smiley expression.

Kiana, who was in the first two rows, suddenly shuddered and looked around alertly.But because the lights in the screening room were too dim, nothing unusual was found.

"Let me tell you, how could an innocent and even silly girl wander around Europe for many years and later go to Asia." Kevin also felt deeply deceived by Kiana's appearance. .

"This is also a kind of knowledge that life has taught her," Su said. "Maintaining a cheerful and outgoing appearance makes it easier for strangers to feel good about her and relax her vigilance."

[On the way to the Divine City Medical Industrial Zone, Kiana and Fu Hua were surprised to see that the Valkyrie was as helpless as ordinary people when facing the Death Warrior and the Honkai Beast.

Seeing that they were seriously injured, Kiana wanted to help.Fu Hua reminded him that the two of them had limited time. Although Kiana said "I understand", she still stopped and held the gun in hand to rescue the Valkyries.

However, after the rescued Valkyrie Arvette saw Kiana, she retreated to the corner in fear as if she were seeing the God of Death, and called Kiana the "Herrscher of the Sky."

Although Kiana said that she would not hurt the other party, the latter's face was still full of distrust.Kiana didn't care about her opinion, but asked the other party what happened here.

Arvette explained to Kiana the reason why they were unable to fight back, and begged the latter to go to the basement to rescue Rita.Kiana agreed to her request. 】

"Grandpa, he really hid a lot of things from his subordinates." Seeing Kiana on the screen being regarded by Arvette as the Herrscher of the Sky, Theresa said unhappily.

"After all, ordinary Valkyries don't need to know too much information about the Herrscher of the Sky. In their perception, the Herrscher is the enemy of mankind." Fu Hua said, "If we tell them that Kiana and ordinary people It makes no difference, but it only makes them more troubled."

"However, it was Rita who was chasing her, but Kiana was able to rescue her regardless of past suspicions. Her moral character is really noble." Fu Hua also expressed his appreciation for Kiana's actions in the movie.

"After all, Kiana also tricked Rita." Himeko complained.

Chapter 46 Ground Destruction Work

[On her way to rescue Rita, Kiana searched for the secret documents of Divine City Medicine and learned of its plan to conduct stigmatization experiments on the residents of the entire city.Kiana directly commented that this idea was crazier than Otto.

Fu Hua paid more attention to the pre-civilization era mentioned in the document, and confirmed the news that "that man" was still alive from the description of "the omniscient and omnipotent snake", which made her feel unbelievable.

In addition, Kiana also discovered observation records recording fusion warriors, as well as the 1475 "Red Kite Immortal Broken Formation Drawing" and the 1887 "London City Photo with Dr. Conan Doyle". The latter two pictures , there is a person who looks very similar to Fu Hua.

Fu Hua then told her that this document recorded his life history.

"Monitor, who are you?"

"I don't mean to hide it from you. It's just that I have had so many identities and names in my life...I can't even mention them all at the moment."

"What's more important now is that my life history should not appear in the archives of such a pharmaceutical company."

"The person hidden behind Shencheng Medicine is someone who knows all the secrets and comes from the same era as me."]
