Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

Page 239

A very subjective intuition.

"Rita, don't you think there's something strange about this place?"

"Strange thing? No, there isn't."

Rita was also observing Kiana.

This place also has a deep connection with Kiana. Mebius may have come to collect samples, but he brought Kiana with him... Kiana could also be a "sample" to be collected!

Kiana, could you describe your discomfort in more detail?

"...It's probably a kind of, furry feeling?"

Kiana's limited vocabulary prevented her from describing her current feelings in detail.

"It feels good... but it's also really unpleasant."

I feel bad because I have painful memories here, but I also feel good because I destroyed this place with my own hands?

Those who knew about Kiana's background came up with more specific answers in their minds.

"Continue towards the central area."

Mebius spoke, and the others had no objections.

Kiana seemed somewhat reluctant, though she couldn't understand why this place felt so strange to her.

But her pride wouldn't let her back down at this moment.

"The Honkai energy concentration has increased to another level..."

Rita glanced at the energy meter and couldn't help but sigh.

"Mr. Liu Bai? Are you alright?"

"It's nothing, just drink more hot water."

"..." Rita's expression was subtle. "And what about Miss Peruvéli?"

"I am fine."

Peruvieri's expression remained indifferent, though fine beads of sweat had appeared on her forehead.

It's called the central area, but it's actually a wasteland.

"Watch your step, there are some hard objects like metal pieces in the snow," the Herrscher of Domination warned.

Upon hearing this, Pei Yinluweili, the master of chess who doubted himself, glared and his eyes widened. Flames shot out like arrows, and the suddenly rising temperature instantly melted most of the snow, revealing the cracked foundation below.

“They even took the floor tiles. Otto really knows how to be thrifty.” Mebius lowered his head, looking uninterested.

There's absolutely nothing good here—at least she doesn't care about these iron and copper pieces and discarded parts that still retain Honkai energy.

All the high-tech gadgets were taken away. Well, the floor tiles here actually have excellent Honkai energy isolation capabilities.

"It feels like we're scavenging for trash," Kiana remarked.

However... despite saying that, Kiana very honestly began rummaging through drawers and cabinets.

That's the fun of exploration, though.

After all, even though this place was recycled once, a lot of things were not recycled but destroyed on the spot.

For example, the walls of the tower in the Babylonian laboratory were clearly destroyed twice, probably because they couldn't move them, so they simply destroyed them on the spot and then salvaged some useful items.

There were also some cabinets that didn't seem very important, lying on the ground, but nobody paid any attention to them.

"There are white coats here... Ah, they're frozen solid."

Kiana looked with some disappointment at the white coat she pulled out of the closet, which crumbled at the slightest touch.

This place could be considered an excellent adventure destination—but most of the time, no one in their right mind would venture here.

"...The concentration of Honkai energy here is unexpectedly high."

"This is the very center of the Honkai. Lady Cecilia has done her best to purify the outer areas, but this central area..."

Firstly, as the fighting progressed, this place was no longer the main battlefield.

Secondly, this place is really remote, it's basically a no-man's land, so purifying it would be too cost-effective.

Moreover, so-called purification is not a panacea.

"I understand... By the way, has she always been like this?"

Peruvelli pointed to Kiana, who was rummaging through drawers like a silly deer.

Liu Bai wanted to recommend her "lively friend"... but forget it. She felt that if she spent time with this person, one of them would die sooner or later.

"It's been like this all along, please bear with me."

Rita smiled with affection for children with intellectual disabilities.

Peruvéli remained silent for a moment.

She hadn't expected Rita to give such a direct and honest answer.

On the other side, Liu Bai was still by Mebius's side.

"Doctor, is it really okay to bring Kiana here?"

"Kiana's condition needs some drastic measures—oh, I don't trust this one."

Mebius glanced at the Herrscher of Domination, who remained silent.

You talk as if I can trust you.

The Herrscher of Domination isn't really stupid; the way Mebius has been looking at her these past two days clearly shows he wants to dissect her.

No matter how close Liu Bai and Mebius are, this gaze alone means that the Herrscher of Dominion will not actively move closer to Mebius.

What's your opinion on "domination"?

"A good idea."

The Law Dominator answered directly.

"While we can steal power, Miss Kiana... who knows?"

Although this person isn't very bright, he's incredibly healthy and positive, especially considering he already knows some of the speculations about Sirin.

Well, the Herrscher of Domination doesn't have much confidence in forcibly stealing power.

"Hey! Liu Bai!"

"What's wrong, Kiana?"

Did you see a little girl in a white dress just now?

Kiana rushed over.

"...?"

"The little girl in the white dress... uh, I'm not talking about me." Kiana glanced down at her white dress and waved her hand. "It's... a little girl who's about this tall."

Kiana placed her hand on her neck and measured it.

"...?"

This time, Liu Bai, Mebius, and the Ruler of Domination looked at each other in bewilderment.

Could this be...

“…No.” After exchanging glances, the three shook their heads.

Why does it feel like the protagonist triggers a special plot?

Clearly, this is most likely Kiana's exclusive storyline.

"Hey...I clearly saw her walking this way?"

"Don't you think your description sounds a lot like how people in movies and TV shows describe seeing ghosts?"

Liu Bai's words startled Kiana, and then her mouth and pupils widened...

"what--!"

Liu Bai's words made such a good point that Kiana was completely unable to refute them.

"Am I...am I going to die? Like that guy in a mystery drama who says, 'I think you're all the murderers, I want to live alone'?"

"No, it's not that serious."

Liu Bai pressed down on Kiana's shoulder.

With this ability to think outside the box, he doesn't seem like someone who's been frightened at all.

"At least we all believe in you... uh, or rather, believe in the sheer awfulness of the Honkai?"

"problem occurs?"

Kiana's shouts attracted the attention of Peruvieri and Rita, who were on lookout duty.

Liu Bai recounted his conversation with Kiana.

“…A ghost?” Peruvéli’s expression was strange.

Although she can see similar things, that's completely different from ghosts.

However, Liu Bai's statement that "believe in the extent of the collapse" is indeed very reasonable.

"Hmm... since only Kiana has seen the ghost so far, could you describe what it looks like?"

Rita reacted quickly as well.

Don't underestimate her and Peruvieri; after all, she is an S-class Valkyrie.

In her opinion, Peruvieri just lacked some maturity and experience; in a few years, she would definitely be no worse than her.

With the two of them on guard duty, virtually no demons or monsters could escape. Moreover, Liu Bai was accompanied by a high-ranking figure from the Honkai system, the Herrscher of Domination.

"What did she look like? I didn't see her from the front, but from the back... she was a white-haired, pale-faced girl..."

Kiana recalled.

"No, rather than being white, it feels more like 'uncolored'? The paleness really doesn't look human... and it even seems to have a fluorescent quality?"

Kiana couldn't be sure after that, since it was broad daylight and after looking at the snow in the sunlight for a long time, everything seemed to have a layer of light on it.

However, this description does indeed sound very much like a ghost.

"And then she walked this way?" Rita added, then looked at the white man who had been standing there.

"Generally speaking, if a ghost doesn't attack on its own initiative, it means it's trying to imply something, right?"

Chapter 186 Ghost

Rita's words were pointed, and they were also what others wanted to say.

Even Peruvieri sensed something unusual—unless Kiana was itching for a fight and just messing around.

"Hey! That makes sense!"

Kiana, a girl who often binge-watches dramas, suddenly became interested after Rita said that.

Scared?

Just kidding, those two words don't even exist in Kiana's dictionary!

This strange and unusual situation actually fueled Kiana's desire to explore.

"Alright! I've made up my mind! I must find out the true form of this ghost!"

“…It’s good to be an idiot.” Möbius muttered to himself.

"Hmm?" Kiana looked over.

Liu Baiqi nudged Shan Xiaoqiu Meisibius, saying, "Could you please not say such things so directly? It would be troublesome if someone heard it!"

"Well, I mean it's great to be young."

"Of course!"

Kiana proudly puffed out her chest, but then realized what she had done.

"Oh, of course I don't mean you're old, Auntie."
