I'm not Yingjie

Shocked by possibilities you never thought of?

Lin's mouth twitched as he said, "Would you like someone for no reason?"

Hun shook his head and said, "No way..."

"That's right. No one would like a completely unrelated person for no reason, unless that person likes everyone." Lin said lightly. He raised his head and looked at the timer on the traffic light. Wearing sunglasses, all he could see was the jumping numbers.

"I'm not special. No one will start to have secret feelings for me as soon as they see me. I'm not like a magnet that attracts all kinds of people to me. What's more, we are chasing fire moths."

"I'm often on missions, have poor interpersonal relationships, and never go to team building activities at the base. To put it nicely, I'm a maverick, and to put it bluntly, I'm a freak."

"I don't know what the other people in the Fire Moth think, but for me, it's best to keep it this way."

in love?

Lin took great pains to dig out the word from his imagination-deficient mind, and then tried his best to associate it with other things, but he still couldn't imagine such a thing happening to him.

He even felt a little nauseous.

When mankind was heading towards an unknown disaster in an urgent need of time, he was flirting with a woman, chatting about everything from the table to the bed. He shouted that he would bear the sacrifice of mankind, but then turned around and hooked up with the woman.

All Lin could feel was a deep chill.

If Lin had been fighting for one person from the beginning, he might not have wanted to bear anything, but now, Lin no longer allowed himself to do anything unnecessary.

“If sacrifice is only a price in words, then sooner or later mankind will turn the sacrifice of a few into that of the majority, and turn meaning into numbers.”

"I saved many people, I am a hero, I have the power and enjoy the pleasures, so it is not my turn to use the victims to dictate to me." If this kind of thinking prevails, then it is wishful thinking for humans to win the Honkai.

He believes in the beauty and greatness of love, but for him, an ordinary person with slightly better physical fitness, if he wants to win, he must abandon unnecessary sentimentality.

Moreover, Lin must win and keep winning. Any failure will bring death to him.

Lin is destined not to be a signpost for most people, but humanity needs such people.

All of this was like another shock to Hun. She understood why Lin worked non-stop and why he just showed a coexistence of emotion and rationality. This made her feel a little... cruel.

"Captain Lin, have you ever thought about yourself?" she murmured.

"I've thought about it, and I think about it every day, whether I have enough bullets."

……

"Ahua, do you want to go to the arcade?"

"Forget it, it's almost closing time, if we don't go back quickly..."

"Ah, you are good in every way except that you are stubborn. Why don't you just not go back today? We can stay outside!"

"But……"

"There's nothing to worry about! Hey, let's go, let's go to the arcade!"

Hua was unable to resist the white-haired girl and was dragged by her to the nearest video game arcade. It was dark, but city life had just begun. It was the busiest time. There were many young people relaxing in the arcade. Hua also saw many classmates from their school. The white-haired girl greeted everyone and Hua could only nod shyly.

"Which one should we play first?"

While the white-haired girl was choosing games, Hua was thinking about how to convince her to go back. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a familiar yet unfamiliar figure out of the corner of her eye.

A hooded man and a girl with highlights in her hair walked into the arcade.

"It seems like today is a holiday, and the hotel is fully booked, so why not just go out for a walk."

"…Why did you come here?"

"Please, Captain Lin~"

Hun was relieved by Lin's silence.

If a person is always so heavy, he will collapse sooner or later. It is better to relax a little.

He never thinks about himself, so let others think about him.

This idea coincided with Himiko's, but they also understood that they could not tell Lin the real answer directly.

"Okay, so where do we start?"

"..."

Hun sat down at an arcade machine excitedly and was about to turn around and call Lin when another person also sat down at the seat next to him.

Soul and the white-haired girl looked at each other.

Chapter 9: The Third Collapse, Eruption

"You are..." The white-haired girl recognized who this sweet-looking girl was. Wasn't she one of the two people who caught Hua's attention?

When I turned my head, I saw that the hooded man who was wrapped tightly was there. He was wearing sunglasses so late at night. Could he see clearly?

Hun also took a look at this fashionable girl, with manicures, permed hair, and tailored clothes. She was simply the epitome of a young and energetic girl. If Hun was not there, Fire Moth might have been able to become a normal young girl like her.

She was filled with emotion for a moment. In comparison, the girl in the old-fashioned uniform standing next to her was so different from her that she didn't even think they were in the same group.

"Um...you play." As a soldier of the Fire Moth, Hun believed that he still needed to give way to ordinary citizens.

"No, no, no, you guys play, there's more than one computer." The white-haired girl stood up as if her butt was on fire. She felt that it would be a real sin if she disturbed the couple's fun.

"I don't play." "I don't play."

Lin Hehua's unanimous response made the atmosphere quiet for a moment.

The two of them looked at each other tacitly again, and then quickly looked away.

"Then, how about the two of us play?" the white-haired girl asked jokingly.

Soul sighed a little frustrated, but still smiled and nodded: "Okay."

So the scene became weird, with two silent people standing behind two people who were fighting passionately, watching them play arcade games without saying a word. The atmosphere was so depressing that the air was about to solidify.

Hun is a soldier who has received military training, so his reaction is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Although the white-haired girl has good gaming skills, Hun obviously also has gaming experience. After quickly becoming familiar with the opponent's operating habits after a few rounds, Hun defeated the white-haired girl and shut her out every time.

The white-haired girl was defeated again and smacked her lips and said, "Wow, you are so awesome."

"Hehe..." Hun smiled without saying anything.

"Ahua, help me." The white-haired girl looked pitifully at the dazed gray-haired girl and sent out a signal for help.

Hua hasn't played many games, but her reflexes are the best the white-haired girl has ever seen. Simply put, she can easily handle any game that relies on reaction, which is similar to Soul.

Hua looked surprised: "Huh? But my skills are not as good as yours."

"Hey, just help me." The white-haired girl pushed her into the seat without saying a word.

Hua was forced to do nothing and didn't dare to look into Hun's eyes. He stared at the screen and said, "Only play once."

"Then let's get started."

This time, she unexpectedly fell into a tough fight. Neither she nor Hua had superb skills, but Hua's reaction and adaptability were even better than hers, and he soon wore her down.

Lin, who had not paid much attention at first, turned his gaze to Hua's hands after Hua sat down, and then he slowly frowned.

"Captain Lin...Lin, help me." Hun opened her big watery eyes and asked for help.

"..."

Does this count as beating the younger one and then the older one comes?

However, Hua defeated Hun, so it was difficult for the opponent to refuse to replace him. He could only secretly decide not to fight after this round.

After Lin sat down, Hun and the white-haired girl smiled at each other. Although they did not communicate verbally, both parties achieved their goals.

"Excuse me." Huawei apologized for winning the fight with her soul, then hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your sunglasses..."

"Don't worry about it." Lin responded casually.

It will be over soon anyway.

“Fight.”

As the opening words sounded, Lin's fingers suddenly flew on the joystick and buttons at a dazzling speed. He controlled the character quickly and rhythmically to attack Hua who had no time to react.

Just as Lin thought, it was over soon.

Lin's operation and reaction were top-notch in the stormy attack. In less than twenty seconds, he used a set of gorgeous seamless combos to pin Hua to death in the corner, making it impossible for her to even press the buttons.

Until Lin pressed the last key and let the character use the last move to end Hua, and then stood up gracefully, Hua was still staring at the screen in a daze.

"..."

"..."

Hun swallowed her saliva, and seeing the perfect knockout on the screen, she asked with difficulty: "...Lin, have you played this before?"

"I know a little bit." Lin dusted off his butt and answered simply.

The white-haired girl was about to comfort the dazed Hua, but when she heard this, she pointed at the calm Lin and said angrily: "That's too much! Aren't you bullying me?"

No matter how powerful you are, you should always give way to others.

"No..." Hua, who had recovered from the torture, grabbed the white-haired girl. Before she could apologize, Lin in front of him folded his arms and said:

"Are you a martial artist?" His tone was firm, more like a confirmation than a question.

"Hmm?" Hua replied in confusion.

"You are very talented, but not diligent enough. In the future, come to these places less often and focus on improving your martial arts."

Hua looked at Lin in surprise as he turned around. This was the first time that someone told her that she was not diligent enough, and... they even suggested that she continue practicing martial arts?

Almost everyone, including her father and even herself, felt that martial arts were no longer useful in this era. After all, this was a peaceful era where there was no need to wield swords and spears. It would be better to learn more knowledge and devote one's youth to the best years instead of practicing martial arts in a boring way.

The white-haired girl snorted in dissatisfaction: "Humph, who are you? You act as if you know everything..."

Hua looked at his receding figure and shook his head, saying, "I think he's a nice guy."

Tonight is still going on, and for the people of Canghai City, today is just like any other day, and tomorrow should be just like today too.

And this unexpected encounter ended so simply...

"Ugh——"

But this is not the case.

A shrill sirens cut through the night sky.

This was the type of alarm no one had ever heard, and it was sounded for one reason only—

A large-scale collapse breaks out.

……

As the two walked out of the arcade, an alarm sounded in their ears. Hun Wei's blue pupils shrank in shock: "Is this, an alarm?"

Lin took out the communicator almost the moment he heard the alarm. The large, shocking red area on the screen showed that the collapse energy in Canghai City was rising rapidly. At this time, a call appeared on his and Hun's communicators at the same time.

"No. MSA-079, MSA-208, a level one collapse disaster has occurred in Changkong City. Canghai City where you are is also affected. The collapse will break out in fifty seconds. Please prepare to deal with the impact and fight."

"Level 1... won't that be a massive collapse that will give birth to Herrscher and higher-level Honkai beasts?" Hun's face was pale. This collapse happened so suddenly that they didn't even have time to prepare, and their equipment wasn't even with them.

"Can you send the nearest branch team for support?"

But the mechanical voice that notified them stopped responding after the brief broadcast. They had to concentrate on fighting in Changkong City, the center of the collapse, and had no time to take care of one or two soldiers.

"What should we do? Captain Lin... Captain Lin?"

Hun anxiously looked at the scarlet font counting down on the communicator, wanting to ask Lin what to do next, but when she turned her head to look, a chill ran through her heart.

Changkong City...Kevin, Mei...

Lin took a deep breath, raised his head, and said in a voice that was even colder than before: "Deal with the impact, and then, defeat the collapse."

"boom!"

A stream of destruction descended from the sky.

Chapter 10: Same as always

The body in the air was so light that I didn't know whether it was gravel or something that fell into my collar. Under the sunglasses, the dark world was stained with scarlet, with an ominous look.

My head was splitting with pain, and the excruciating pain seeped beneath my skin. It must be the fragments of the supporting pillar that hit the back of my head.

His consciousness was becoming blurred, and everything in front of him was covered with a hazy layer. The staggering Lin bit the tip of his tongue hard. The pain mixed with the taste of blood and rust woke him up.

He narrowed his eyes and stared at the ruins that were the first to be hit and turned into broken walls. The blood and flesh around him were horrible to look at. In the early stages of the collapse, many people might not have died from the erosion of the collapse energy. After all, the collapse has many forms, such as war, infectious diseases, meteorites and even the arrival of giant soldiers. The first wave of the direct collapse outbreak can easily kill at least half of the people in the world due to physical damage.
