112 Chapter 112 Griseo: Otto... watch the sword...
TL: Yo, I'm back! Busy with school, got Crimson Weave, Failed to get Sparkles(gepard cockblocker), and I'm back... Not for long, but yeah...
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Elysia's brief appearance completely aroused everyone's curiosity.
They kept asking about the news of the Past Paradise in the barrage.
(TN: I forgot what elysian realm is called again. Requesting help)
But Elysia didn't have the slightest intention of revealing any information.
She just kept saying some very cute, but completely unrelated to "Past Paradise" words.
This made the audience even more curious.
Eden saw this and quickly clicked on the card drawing interface to divert the audience's attention.
Sure enough, the fun of drawing cards was irresistible to everyone.
Even Elysia immediately became excited.
"It's time for the card drawing segment again~"
"Eden, do you want me to share some of my good luck with you~"
Eden smiled lightly, "Sure~ How about letting Elysia draw this time~"
For Eden, the money from drawing cards was nothing.
So, she directly handed the mouse to Elysia.
Just draw with all your might.
After several minutes of drawing cards, the "Herrscher of Flamescion" graduated to SSS.
After exiting the card drawing interface, she immediately opened the character's skill panel to check.
Then, she found that the skill names of the Herrscher of Flamescion were also full of details.
Basic attacks, branch attacks, ultimate move, dodge—six skills that exactly corresponded to the people of St. Freya Academy...
And the direction of the barrage quickly changed.
Many players who had drawn the "Herrscher of Flamescion" began to send barrage messages one after another.
"With this round of flame command, driving the path of heaven, turning the cycle of truth."
"With this ember flame burning, I am the torch, heading towards the eternal flame of truth."
"With this sword light in hand, the shining stars break dawn, heralding the resounding thunder."
"With this remaining fire engraved in memory, crossing a thousand years, calling for the new birth of the engraved feathers."
"With this hymn of protection, the stars shimmer, blossoming with the twilight's blessings."
Eden also watched with complex emotions.
Not only did the lyrics respond to the previous anime short film.
Even the skills seemed to be responding to the past.
Many viewers who had not yet drawn the "Herrscher of Flamescion" were deeply moved by these skill names.
"Draw!! Damn it, why am I not getting it?!"
"Don't tease me anymore... please..."
Almost everyone felt that such a meticulously crafted and sincere character would definitely be worth drawing.
Eden quickly adjusted her mood and entered the level 20 character tutorial.
However, unlike all the previous character trial levels.
The first thing Kiana said after landing was, "I will fight for all that is beautiful in this world!"
Then, the BGM of the level started playing, and it was... the BGM of "The Last Lesson"!!
Eden: "..."
Even the tutorial level is going to stab me, huh?
Countless players also cursed silently.
"Otto! You're not human, sobbing..."
Eden pursed her lips and started to follow the tutorial.
Basic attacks, dodging.
"It's my turn now, any objections!"
Charged attack.
"The moment of decisive battle has come!"
The skills were extremely gorgeous and smooth, and the sense of impact was equally impressive.
Next was aerial combat.
Even when idle, Kiana would mutter to herself, "All my happiest memories are here... in my heart."
"I will walk the path ahead with everyone, so... don't worry about me."
"The sword on my back isn't heavy at all, it's warm..."
Kiana's calm words, paired with the BGM of "The Last Lesson," were heartbreakingly poignant.
Kiana's lines used to be lively and confident, but now...
It can only be said that Otto's cuts really hurt.
Finally, when Eden pressed the ultimate key, a stunning ultimate animation flashed by.
"With this fierce fire, cut through all obstacles!"
Kiana swung her greatsword, accompanied by explosions in the style of several frames of line drawing.
"Boom~"
The effects were extremely shocking.
But it didn't end there. In Eden's mind, she recalled "The Last Lesson" animation.
With this in mind, she quickly exited the game, opened the MiHoYO official website, and found the short animation of "The Last Lesson."
Under the curious gaze of countless viewers, Eden dragged the progress bar of the video and paused at the frames where Himeko swung her greatsword and shattered the Spear of the Queen of the Void.
It was also an explosion in the style of line drawing.
It was also a motion of swinging a greatsword towards the sky.
It was also a silhouette...
Eden compared the screenshot of the Herrscher of Flamescion's ultimate move with this frame from "The Last Lesson"...
Countless people's hearts jumped.
Kiana's ultimate move... was so similar to Himeko's from back then...
No, it couldn't be called similar.
In the Herrscher of Flamescion's ultimate move animation, there were two frames that were truly and exactly the silhouette of Himeko...
Seeing this, Eden's eyes reddened again.
She switched back to the game screen and looked at the silent Kiana in the picture.
After a while, Eden used the ultimate move again.
"Ember, draw your sword!"
"Boom~"
With all enemies defeated, the settlement screen appeared, and Kiana slowly recited her lines, "Another victory, you must have seen it too..."
Eden: "Countless viewers: "..."
"Just by looking at the skill names, I'm already tearing up... Seeing this, I'm really at a loss... QAQ"
"The moment of decisive battle has come QAQ"
"It's my turn now, any objections? QAQ"
"All I see is Teacher Himeko's shadow~~~"
"Even during the ultimate explosion, there was a frame of Teacher Himeko's silhouette QAQ"
"No need, MiHoYO... really no need sob sob sob..."
"Draw! Why can't I draw sob sob sob..."
Eden also exited the tutorial page and equipped Kiana with the Stigmata.
Even the Stigmata... were all "Himeko."
This character, "New Herrscher," really embodies all the cuts.
Actually, in the original version of the ultimate animation, those two frames of Himeko were not there. This was added on a whim by Mo Li.
But it has to be said that adding them this way really strengthens the nostalgic effect.
What he didn't expect was that Eden would notice this so quickly.
So far, the effect seems really great.
Barrage comments expressed being emotionally stabbed.
At this point, Eden's livestream also ended under the reluctance of countless viewers.
Turning her head to look at Bronya, who was still holding onto Mo Li's arm, Mo Li asked, "Are you feeling better, Bronya?"
And looking at the blank screen of the livestream, Bronya finally reacted.
She quickly let go of Mo Li, cleared her throat, and pretended to be calm, saying, "Uh... I'm fine."
"That's good. Let's go check on Eden."
Before Mo Li could even get up, Eden and Elysia had already approached.
Seeing this, Mo Li smiled lightly, "It seems that Eden doesn't need my comfort after all~"
"You still dare to say?" Bronya glared at Mo Li, "I won't watch such plots again in the future."
Hearing this, Elysia also became curious, "Yeah."
"Mo Li boss~ Will there be more plots with Teacher Himeko in the future?"
Mo Li shook her head, "Not for now."
After hearing this, everyone subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Himeko's appearance can be said to be the most emotionally intense plot.
Since Himeko won't appear, then the subsequent plots shouldn't be as emotionally intense.
At this moment, just as Himeko approached, she felt another arrow piercing her heart.
Are these people just accustomed to calling her that, or am I really getting old?
One by one, they all called her "Teacher Himeko"...
"Elysia... I think I'm only a few years older than you."
Elysia realized something wasn't right and quickly passed the buck to Mo Li.
"Uh~ Himeko sis, it's not that I want to, but your performance in the game really resonates with everyone~"
"Even I almost couldn't help but cry..."
"So, don't be angry~ As an apology, how about a big hug for you~"
Himeko smiled and shook her head.
She was just making a comment and wasn't actually angry.
"Pink Fairy Miss... Why is there never a 'big hug' option among the apologies you give me?"
As soon as Mo Li said this, all the girls present focused their attention on him.
Mo Li: "..."
"Just kidding haha~"
Elysia laughed nonchalantly, "I didn't expect that Mo Li boss only wants a hug from Elysia~"
"I can fulfill your wish~ I don't mind, but... I don't know if others will~~"
"Cough..." Just then, Rita coughed lightly, "Everyone, dinner is ready. I'm sure you're all hungry, right?"
"Yay~" Hu Tao and Kiana were the first to cheer.
"What's for dinner today?"
"Sweet pepper curry."
"What... Mo Li boss, don't mention this word again!!"
"But Kiana wants braised fish~"
Meanwhile, the topic of the new version of Honkai Impact 3rd was still soaring.
Whether it was the plot that made countless people cry, the meticulous design of the new characters, or the appearance of Elysia.
It all sparked discussions among countless people.
The new version of Honkai Impact 3rd not only caused a sensation in the gaming community but also in the entertainment industry.
The character development in Honkai Impact 3rd is truly successful.
Almost every Valkyrie has a large number of fans.
And the songs in it have also eclipsed ninety percent of the songs on the market. Within half a day, "Moon Halo" skyrocketed to the top of the music charts.
At the same time, the theme song of "The Last Lesson" also experienced a resurgence on music websites.
Countless female stars in the entertainment industry want to play a role in Honkai Impact 3rd or Genshin Impact.
At the same time, countless singers want to collaborate with Mo Li.
But Mo Li didn't have time to pay attention to them.
Isn't it more fun to banter with the girls from the studio?
Inside the MiHoYO studio.
After Kiana and Hu Tao changed into their school uniforms, Mo Li took them out.
The reason they changed into their school uniforms was naturally to go to school.
Although they were on break, they still had to take the monthly exams.
However, with Kiana and Hu Tao's personalities... it's okay if their grades aren't that good.
Originally, it was Mei who was responsible for taking them to school.
But in the new version of Honkai Impact 3rd's plot, Mei has a lot of voice lines.
So, Mo Li took over this task.
After Kiana and Hu Tao got in the car, Mo Li started the navigation and drove them to their school.
During the journey, Kiana kept sighing.
Mo Li couldn't help but find it amusing.
"What's wrong, Kiana? Why the long face?"
"Ah," Kiana sighed, "I get a headache just thinking about exams..."
"Mo Li boss, do you think I should just drop out of school?"
"I don't mind, if you're not afraid of Mei scolding you, you can go ahead~"
"Then forget it..."
Just then, Hu Tao seemed to see something and quickly rolled down the window, shouting outside, "Griseooo~"
This loud shout not only attracted Kiana's attention but also stunned Mo Li.
"Griseo?? Could it be that Griseo?"
He quickly slowed down and followed Hu Tao's voice.
Then, he saw a girl in a white dress with short light blue hair, looking soft and weak.
"It really is her!"
Mo Li couldn't help but feel a headache.
If Griseo really exists in reality, then he will have to persuade her to play a role in Honkai Impact 3rd...
What a hassle...
"Is that girl your classmate?"
Hu Tao nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, she's a good friend."
At this time, Kiana and Hu Tao's school was just ahead.
Since it was not far away, and there were parking spaces nearby, Mo Li simply parked the car on the side.
As soon as Hu Tao and Kiana got out of the car and found Griseo, they were immediately surrounded by a crowd of students.
"It's the 77th Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor! Hu Tao actually from our school!"
"Ah, Kiana, I've seen the living Kiana!"
"Kiana, will Eden appear in the future plot of Honkai Impact 3rd?"
"Director, when will you be available in the gacha?"
Kiana and Hu Tao, surrounded by the crowd, looked a little embarrassed.
Facing their questions, the two girls didn't know how to answer.
Just as they were feeling a headache, Mo Li finally walked over.
He sighed helplessly, "Fellow students, don't gather here, it's dangerous on the roadside. Let's go back to school."
To attract their attention, Mo Li used Otto's voice.
And the effect was quite significant. As soon as Otto's voice came out, almost all eyes turned towards him.
"Otto!!"
"Oh my god! Otto is here too!"
This scene made Mo Li feel pleasantly surprised, "Alright everyone, it's almost exam time, it's not good to gather here."
While saying this, Mo Li handed over the mask and hat to Hu Tao and Kiana.
"You're such careless girls, I told you to disguise yourselves..."
Hu Tao stuck out her tongue, "We forgot for a moment... " Kiana also muttered with a slightly red face.
Just then, someone in the crowd shouted, "Otto, look at my sword!"
Then, gradually, a large group of people joined in with the cheering.
"Otto, look at my sword!!"
The voice echoed throughout the street, and for those who didn't know, it seemed like some kind of cult ritual was taking place...
Mo Li couldn't help but sweatdrop, "Alright, alright, I know you all want to 'cut' me. Wait for the new version to come out, and Otto will have his health bar displayed."
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd erupted into a burst of cheers.
"Really? When will the new version be updated?"
"The new version is supposed to feature Elysia and Eden, right?"
"Boss, boss, can't you reveal a little more..."
Seeing more and more people gathering, Mo Li could only helplessly say, "I've said it, just go back to school, okay?"
Just as everyone nodded, another voice suddenly rang out.
"No! Give us another 300 crystals!"
This statement received the approval of most students.
Mo Li: "...Fine, I'll give you a 300 crystal redemption code."
"As for the questions you asked, I'll release a teaser soon. Here's another 600 crystal redemption code for you. Don't ask too many questions, hurry back to the exam hall."
With that, Mo Li rattled off a string of redemption codes.
Immediately, the surrounding students took out pen and paper to jot them down.
These students were also very trustworthy. After happily receiving the redemption codes, they dispersed one by one.
This short interlude was naturally captured by these students and shared in their respective class groups.
After everyone left, Mo Li's gaze finally turned to Griseo.
And at this moment, Griseo, with her beautiful eyes, looked at Mo Li... and then softly uttered four words.
"Otto... look at my sword..."
Mo Li: ""
[The paintbrush, submits to me]
