Chapter 126 Raven's Villa Island

Today, the streets of Changkong City have been swallowed up by the sea, and only some highlands and ruins are still exposed above the water.

Anyone who looks at it can never imagine that three years ago this was a prosperous city with a population of more than three million.

Mei knew that all this was because of the third eruption.

[ " It's not your fault that this disaster occurred ..." ]

[Tesla pursed her lips and comforted somewhat dryly, that was all she could say. ]

[ " No matter who is right or wrong, it cannot make up for what this city has lost. " ]

[Mei looks at everything that was once familiar in front of her, but now it has turned into a devastated scene. ]

[ " I was the one who became the Herrscher three years ago. From time to time, I wonder if if I hadn't been so weak and succumbed to Honkai, none of this would have happened. " ]

[ " I know there are no ifs in this world, it's just ... I hope that I can recall this disaster every time I face every choice in the future. " ]

[ " This is a responsibility that I must bear, and the same is true for Kiana. " ]

[ " well ...." ]

[Tesla sighed, not knowing what to say. ]

" Hmph, the cry of the weak. "

Brother Kalpas crossed his arms and snorted coldly.

" Don't say that, Kalpas. After all, Mei is not strong enough at this time. The Herrscher Gem is gone, but her consciousness is still very good. "

Elysia said,

" She has the courage and perseverance to take responsibility, which is already good. "

" Self-awareness? Haha, if she really has the so-called Self-awareness, she will never go around the world looking for Kiana. "

Kalpas sneered and said,

" Without power, even if she finds Kiana, she will be like last time. Watching Kiana being taken away by someone, she can only hide in the dark and cry like a mouse. "

" If she is strong enough, then no matter who takes Kiana away, she can get it back, and Kiana doesn't have to worry about hurting her if she loses control. "

" Well ....."

Although she wanted to refute Kalpas's words, Elysia thought about it and found that there was really nothing to say.

After all, Kalpas was telling the truth.

But the problem is that Mei can't stop looking for Kiana, just like she can't stop thinking about her.

And speaking of power, Mei is not even the Herrscher of Thunder now, so how can she gain power?

Just when Elysia was thinking this, Tesla directly found the Herrscher's ability reaction through the detector, but what was surprising was that this reaction actually came from Mei.

Only then did everyone realize that although the Conquering Stone was not in Mei's body, she still had some Herrscher energy left, but she could not use this energy freely.

[Eh? Is this a foreshadowing? ]

[It should be true. Although the Conquering Stone has left Mei's body, Mei still has the qualifications of the Herrscher of Thunder. It seems that this is a way for her to gain power and change. ]

[Great, if she can become the Herrscher of Thunder again, Mei will have the power to protect Kiana. Then she will definitely not let anyone hurt Kiana again! ]

The viewers in the live broadcast room were keenly aware that this seemed to be a foreshadowing. If it was not what they expected, it must have a lot to do with Mei becoming the Herrscher of Thunder again.

"Cool~~ This does seem like a foreshadowing, and the same seems to be true for Mei in the post-Honkai . Although she cannot use the power of the Herrscher of Thunder, her body still retains the energy of the Herrscher. "

Kevin held his chin and analyzed seriously.

" Then I will make a bold guess at the follow-up plot. Maybe there will be some danger in City in the near future. Then in order to protect Kiana, Mei took back the Conquest Stone from her body and became the Herrscher of Thunder again. "

Elysia said excitedly.

" Hmph, so what if I become the Herrscher of Thunder again? That kind of half-baked Herrscher is almost the same as Wendy. "

Brother Kalpas sneered, and by the way, he dragged Wendy out and whipped the corpse once more.

But what he said is indeed reasonable. After all, according to the power level shown in the plot, the Herrscher of Thunder is berely better than Wendy.

When she first awakened, Kiana knocked her out with a baseball bat, and then the Void Queen easily took away the Conquest Stone.

Even Sister Rita hasn't been this miserable!

" That's not necessarily true ~~"

Su Mu said with a smile.

" Eh? Su Mu, will there be any changes in Mei this time? "

Elysia asked curiously.

" Of course, this time you will see a completely different Herrscher of Thunder. "

Su Mu didn't hide it either. After all, everyone had guessed that Mei would become the Herrscher of Thunder, so he didn't bother to hide it anymore.

Hearing Su Mu's words, everyone's curiosity was suddenly piqued, and even Brother Kalpas showed a little interest.

As Mei and Tesla continue to explore Changkong City in depth, there are fewer and fewer roads to take.

On the way, they also discovered an anti-entropy guidance robot, and they didn't know why it appeared here.

Later, when they set up the Honkai energy detection device again, they still found no trace of Kiana, but unexpectedly discovered something else.

When they rushed over, they were surprised to find that it was a little girl who had fainted on the ground!

Mei and Tesla took her back to the ship, and after she woke up, they learned that she was a refugee from Changkong City. After the collapse of Changkong City, she and a dozen children had been living here. .

Mei and Tesla were both surprised by this. They didn't expect that there would actually be a group of children living in the city occupied by Honkai.

Of course, they are not all children. There is a woman she calls a teacher who comes back every one or two months and brings them food and daily necessities.

After understanding the little girl's situation, Mei and Tesla prepared to send her back and take a look at the place they regarded as ' home ' .

The little girl's residence is a shanty town built on a high building. There are more than a dozen children here, but they are all a little afraid of strangers. It is because Mei saved Little Sora that they are willing to say a few words to Mei.

Mei also took the opportunity to get news about Kiana from them.

Tesla then helped the children repair the house, and Sora also offered to take Mei and the others to Xicheng District to help them find Kiana, because she was familiar with this place.

Under the leadership of Sora, they successfully arrived at the entrance of Xicheng District, but it was already getting late. Mei planned to take Sora back to the ship for a meal first, and then go out for action tomorrow.

" It's really strange, why are there a group of children living here in Changkong City? "

Seeing Sora getting along very well with Mei, Elysia said with confusion on her face,

" And their teacher, since she has adopted them, why not take them out and find a good place to live? "

[Yes, listening to Sora's tone, she obviously likes that teacher very much, and that teacher is also very good to them. If that's the case, why not take them out? ]

[Could it be because that teacher has some conspiracy? For example, are children used for human experiments? That's why they were allowed to live here to prevent them from escaping. ]

[Uh ... Brother, your thoughts are too dark. Sora didn't seem to have mentioned that there were too many children living here just now, right? ]

[Maybe there is something unspeakable. ]

The audience talked a lot, and they were all surprised by this group of children living in Changkong City.

" I think the most important thing now is the identity of the teacher they say. "

Kevin thought,

" She can allow a group of children to live safely in this dangerous Changkong City. Obviously, she is also a person who has the experience and ability to fight against Honkai. "

" And such a person is probably someone who is a member of the Honkai Organization, such as the Valkyrie of Schicksal, the Anti-Entropy Executive, or ... the World Serpent. "

" Judging from the plot, Su Mu spent so much time describing these children, so the teachers of these children must be very important. "

" Kalpas, what do you think? "

" I sit and watch. "

Kalpas crossed his arms and didn't even raise his eyelids. He didn't bother to analyze what would happen next.

" Yeah. I also think their identity as teachers will be very important, and they are probably characters who have already appeared in the main storyline. "

Elysia nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Mei and the others returned to the ship. Mei cooked a meal for Sora. Sora was extremely happy with the meal and praised Mei's cooking skills, which made everyone smile knowingly.

Are you kidding me, she's Herrscher of Rice?

Then Tesla also asked Sora the question that everyone was most curious about, why their teacher didn't take them out.

And Soraalso answered.

It turns out that their teacher also had an unfortunate childhood. She started with nothing and has been working hard to save money.

She spent more than ten years buying a private island in a distant country.

She planned to build a big house on it, and then take them all over, and live a free and peaceful life from then on.

[ " The house is about to be completed. We are all happy for the teacher. She has worked all her life and finally has a place where she can enjoy her life. " ]

[Speaking of this, Sora's originally happy expression suddenly became depressed. ]

[ " But no one expected that tragedy would happen like this ..." ]

[ " What happened? " Mei asked curiously. ]

[ " Four months ago, a major Honkai eruption occurred in the world. The teacher was in Changkong City at that time, and she protected us from the Honkai Beasts. " ]

[ " The storm lasted for several hours before it subsided, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. But at this moment, bad news came from the distance—— " ]

[Sora said in an extremely sad tone, " Teacher's island was forever sunk in the great collapse ..." ]

[ " I still remember the teacher's appearance at that time. She was expressionless and silent, but she kept pacing back and forth in the room, running, rolling ... She kept saying that it was okay, but she shed tears. Big drops are falling down. " ]

[ " Finally, the teacher couldn't help but rushed out, howling and crying at the end of the sea, as sad as a child ..." ]

[ " She kept crying and crying until her tears dried up and her voice became hoarse, then she stood up. " ]

[ " I will never forget the vow she made that day under the sunset - no matter what the cost, humanity will definitely defeat Honkai ... ! "

[Mei : " ....." ]

[Tesla: " ….." ]

[Mei: " How should I put it ... it's such a sad story. " ]

" Ah this ..."

Seeing Sora's vivid and emotional description, Elysia and others suddenly didn't know what to say.

Isn't the teacher Sora mentioned too miserable?

After more than ten years of hard work, all vanished in thin air!

" This is really a sad story ... Sora's teacher must be too miserable. "

Elysia said with a sympathetic face.

" It hurts, it hurts so much! I can completely feel the pain of that teacher Xiaokong, and I even have a picture in my mind. "

Kevin also said with emotion.

As a social person, Kevin can completely understand the feeling of doing something so hard and then being completely rejected.

What's more, the teacher used the money she had saved for more than ten years to buy the island and house. It is no exaggeration to say that this island and house completely carried her dream.

Then her dream died.

Such a blow would be unbearable for anyone.

".... She is indeed unlucky. "

Even Brother Kalpas didn't say anything sarcastic this time.

[Made, what Sora said is so graphic. I have already started to cry. My family members were so anxious that I lost a thousand yuan last time. I was so anxious that I was rolling around the house crying. ]

[Alas, their teacher is really a good person. It's a pity that good people are not rewarded. The island villa they worked hard to buy for more than ten years was lost in just one collapse. ]

[Speaking of the Great eruption four months ago ... wasn't that the first time Kiana became the Herrscher of the Void? ]

[In that case, the teacher's island villa sank, and Kiana was at fault ... No, it should be Otto's fault! ]

[But that last sentence is a bit silly. The old thief has a bad taste again, right? It was obviously a very tragic thing, but when I heard Mr. Sora say that no matter what the cost, humanity will definitely defeat Honkai, I almost laughed out loud. Knead it, does that connotate Kevin? ]

The audience in the live broadcast room also unanimously observed a moment of silence for the teacher.

After all, no one can tolerate this.

And because everyone has encountered this kind of thing at one time or another, such as losing money or things, it makes them feel very involved.

This feeling is like buying a house when it was launched, paying the down payment, and paying the mortgage every month, and then the house turned into an unfinished building.

Normal people would probably want to die if they encountered this kind of thing.

Sora's teacher just cried loudly and then directed his anger at Honkai, which was already very strong.

" Su Mu, why are you so bad? You made other teachers look so miserable, and they haven't even shown up yet. "

Elysia pinched Su Mu's ears and said angrily.

" Really? Then I hope you won't laugh out loud later. "

Su Mu said quietly.

" Laughing out loud? How is that possible! "

Elysia suddenly said dissatisfied,

" Do you think we are the kind of people who take pleasure in others' misfortunes? How could anyone laugh out loud because of someone else's misfortune! "

" I hope you can remember what you said now. "

Su Mu raised his eyebrows, smiled, and said no more.

" Just remember, I, Elysia, am definitely not that kind of person! "

Elysia said righteously.

When Kevin and Kalpas heard Su Mu's words, they raised their brows slightly, with subtle expressions on their faces.

It's just that Brother Kalpas was wearing a mask and didn't show it.

They seemed to have noticed something.

But Elysia, who was competing with Su Mu, didn't notice this.

The game continues.

Mei sent Sora back to the ' nest ' , she returned to the ship and fell asleep with the fatigue of the day and the worry about Kiana.

In her dream, she dreamed of the time when she and Kiana were fleeing together three years ago.

She was obviously in danger, but Kiana never gave up on her. She always remembered every word she said to herself.

[ " If you become that Herrscher again, I will beat you awake again with a baseball bat. " ]

[ " I will hit you once you change, and I will hit you ten times if you change ten times. Even if I hit you all over your head, I will always be with you and protect you. " ]

Looking at this familiar picture and dialogue, the audience also felt sad.

No matter what Mei became, Kiana in the past would always stay by her side and never leave her.

But now when it was her turn to become the Herrscher, she stayed away from Mei, not wanting to hurt them anymore.

And how similar is Mei's mood at this moment to Kiana's before?

Now that the roles of the two parties have been interchanged, this similar but different fate also makes everyone have to admire Su Mu's screenwriting ability.

Soon, on the second day, Mei and Tesla were surprised to find that the water level in Changkong City suddenly rose, and the concentration of Honkai energy in the air also became deeper. This seemed to indicate what was about to happen in Changkong City. .

Worried that something might happen to the children in the nest, Mei and Tesla hurried over.

From Sora's mouth, they learned that all these changes may be related to a large Honkai Beast she encountered yesterday.

So Tesla stayed in the nest and was responsible for protecting the children's safety, while Mei took Xiao Kong to the place where the Honkaiju was, preparing to see the situation.

And when they arrived there, Mei was surprised to find that the Honkai beast was actually Benares!

And now Benares looks very strange. She seems to have become more ferocious, and Mei can only barely hold on under her attack.

At the critical moment, her head suddenly started to hurt, and a strong feeling of dizziness surged into her brain, so Mei could only hug Sora and roll over to hide in the narrow low ground.

But the wind was also hot on its heels.

[ " Sora, get out of the way! " ]

Suddenly, along with a woman's voice that came from nowhere, a dark shadow was like lightning, touching Benares' chest and disappearing.

Benares suddenly howled in pain, and a deep claw mark appeared on her chest.

Mei and Sora both stared blankly at the shadow blocking them.

[ " teacher! " ]

The cloak was rustling, and amid Sora's surprise call, the handsome figure of the raven appeared in front of everyone.

" Hey?! Xiao Kong's teacher is actually a raven?! "

Everyone was shocked when they saw the long-awaited teacher Xiao Kong.

No one could have imagined that the gentle and kind teacher that Xiao Kong said gave them hope would actually be Raven, the cadre of World Snake!

This extremely funny development even made Elysia speechless in surprise.

Kevin and Kalpas looked at each other, and they both saw such a look in the other's eyes.

Because of Su Mu's previous words, they had roughly guessed the identity of this teacher. After all, there were only so many characters appearing in Honkai Impact III. After excluding some impossible candidates, there were only a few remaining characters.

[What the hell? ! little Sora's teacher is Raven? Old thief, did you make a mistake? ]

[No, is there any similarity between the raven and the image described by Sora? ]

[Dizzy, I really didn't expect that the person who adopted many children and took care of them for three years would actually be Raven ... ]

[How is this possible ... ? ]

Most of the viewers in the live broadcast room looked in disbelief.

Because Sora described her teacher so beautifully before, the audience subconsciously had a very positive image in their minds.

But the appearance of Raven was completely unexpected by everyone. You must know that this guy is not a good person. Apart from her good figure, everyone's impression of her is actually not very good.

After all, she was preparing to kill an entire city of people for experiments in Sky City!

Can such a person be considered a good person?

" Actually, this is not incomprehensible. "

Kevin said in a deep voice,

" After all, everyone is complicated, and this is more vividly demonstrated in Honkai Impact III. The best example is Otto. "

" In the eyes of the protagonist group, Otto is undoubtedly a devil full of evil and an executioner. But in the eyes of the Schicksal Valkyries, he is the wise warrior who leads them to fight against the Honkai, Archbishop. "

" So although Raven is a villain in our eyes, in Sora's view, Raven is the teacher who has taken care of them for three years. "

" Humph, this is kind of interesting. "

Kalpas looked at the game screen with interest.

After hearing what Kevin said, everyone gradually accepted this fact.

And then, they realized something else.

[Wait a minute ... So, the person Xiao Kong said before that the island villa her teacher worked so hard to buy was silent, and then rolled around in tears in the room ... was actually a raven? ! ]

[ .... Grass! I was feeling very uncomfortable at first, but now I suddenly want to laugh! ]

[The raven rolled around in tears .... Pfft—— ! Ha ha ha ha! ! ! ]

The audience in the live broadcast room burst into laughter instantly.

Although gloating about misfortune is a very immoral behavior, once the protagonist is replaced by a raven, the plot suddenly has a funny sense of comedy.

Black humor belongs to yes.

" Pfft—— ! "​

Even Elysia couldn't help laughing after seeing the laughter of the barrages.
