Honkai Impact: You still owe me a dance

"But what did we lose..."

The doll's voice vibrated slightly, but she had given up everything as she knelt on the ground.

"Lost to justice? Lost to hope? Or... simply lost to power...?"

"You won't understand."

Kiana's Archon Spear penetrated into the doll's body, and she had no mercy for the Dominator Herrscher.

"But we want to understand, Kiana. Kiana, we are so envious... Why do you win every time? No matter what obstacles you encounter, you will not waver... No matter what desperate situation, You can all save the day by yourself."

"I'm never alone."

"Kiana has never fought alone."

Kiana and Bronya looked at each other and smiled at each other.

"Yes, you are never alone. If he hadn't been helping you, you wouldn't have been able to defeat us so easily. But we are not alone either... We obviously... also have one A thousand companions..."

"What connects you is not ideals, understanding, or mutual trust. You just gather together for a common purpose and vent the same polarized emotions. And such people are not called companions!"

"I see... But Kiana... No, before you get my body, let me ask one more question..."

"Who are you talking about?"

Bronya had noticed the previous words of the doll, and there seemed to be another person in her mouth helping them defeat the Herrscher.

"With your so-called belief, so-called companions, and so-called protection...can you really defeat Honkai? We may have failed, but the next enemy is far more contradictory and powerful than us... ..At that time, can you still compete with these illusory things?"

"I won't give up. Besides, this is not something imaginary."

"Of course they can. After all, they are my chosen ones. After all, this is proof of what makes people human."

A special voice appeared from the puppet's mouth. This voice seemed to be affected by a voice changer, with a full sense of electronic sound.

"I really envy you... You are right, we are just puppets of the collapse... What connects us are just those annoying threads... Unlike you, we have broken free long ago. Without the constraints of Honkai... After all, you could have destroyed the civilization of this world, but you chose humanity instead."

The puppet gradually lowered its head, no longer wanting to look up at Kiana and Bronya.

"But people's malice will not disappear...Kiana...and you...you will understand soon..."

But the doll kept shaking its head.

"No... you know the malice of human beings better than I do. Look... the [golden] thread has entangled you again."

The puppet lowered its head silently, no longer speaking, quietly waiting for its ending.

Kiana and Bronya were preparing to launch the final attack towards the last puppet and towards the theater that was about to be destroyed.

"Kiana, Bronya, wait."

But at this time, Sirin appeared and blocked Kiana and Bronya who were about to take action.

"Sister Xilin, what's wrong?"

Kiana was a little puzzled, but she did not take back her Archon Spear.

Siren came to Kiana and pulled out the Archon spear that was originally pierced into the doll's body.

"So, what are your plans next? When you took away the first Herrscher Core, wasn't it just for this time?"

"When did you first realize it was me?"

The doll raised its head again, moved its neck slightly because it had been lowered for too long, and looked at Sirin with a smile.

"It's been true from the beginning. It's just that you can stop your smile. The doll's smiling face looks really uncomfortable. You say so, dear Brother Bai Yan."

The moment Xilin called out the other person's name, everyone present looked at the puppet in front of them in shock.

"As expected of you. So many years of training for you have not been wasted."

The doll moved its body slightly.

"Bai Yan? How could you be like this now?"

"Brother Bai Yan?"

When Jizi asked about Bai Yan's situation, Kiana and Bronya couldn't believe that the doll in front of them was Bai Yan.

"Me? It's nothing, because I am busy with something in the Quantum Sea right now, so I don't have time to return to the original world. And using the core of the Herrscher of Dominance, you can interact with the Herrscher of Dominance in its final form. During the battle, I can sense it and control the doll's body. It's just that the doll's body can't withstand my power at all, so I can only chat for a while."

The puppet 'Bai Yan' spread his hands. As he said, the puppet's body can't bear his strength at all, so in a few minutes, the puppet and the Domination Theater will completely disappear from this world.

"However, Kiana and Bronya, you two have done a good job. Even if I don't ask the Herrscher of Knowledge to help you, you can defeat the Herrscher of Dominance with just the abilities of the two of you."

Bai Yan can clearly see everyone's battle through the core of the Herrscher, which is at least very satisfactory to their current strength.

"Thank you for the compliment, but Brother Bai Yan, Bronya wants to ask you, what is your true identity? Why does the Dominator Herrscher call you a traitor like us?"

Although Bronya still believed in Bai Yan, she still wanted to know what his identity was.

"Just a Herrscher who has destroyed countless civilizations. But I am just a member of the fight against Honkai."

"Okay, you don't have much time to begin with. What other tasks are there next? Let's talk about it quickly."

As Xilin, who has known Bai Yan's identity for a long time, she doesn't care about Bai Yan's true identity at all.

"What's next? There are no tasks left, but after you go back, you can help me wish Theresa. Just say, congratulations on her becoming the Bishop of Destiny. As for why, you will know in a few days."

"what?"

When everyone was confused, Bai Yan continued.

"According to this time, Otto should be in Klosten now. After a while, you should also go to Klosten. I won't say more. Anyway, there is too much to say. It’s of no use.”

"Okay, then Himeko and I will go to the Salt Lake Base first and then return to St. Freya."

Xilin also decided on the next journey, looked at Kiana who wanted to ask something but did not dare to say it, and pushed her directly in front of the puppet 'Bai Yan'.

"Ask if you have anything. When did you become so timid?"

"Hey. Um...Brother Bai Yan, what did you do to the Herrscher of the Sky back then? Why did she..."

Kiana blushed instantly when she recalled the memory that the Herrscher of the Sky had shown her.

"Change the question, I can explain this to you, don't waste time."

Xilin decisively interrupted Kiana, because she had already seen that the doll's arms had begun to decompose.

"Then when will you be back?"

"Me? It will probably take some time. I'm only a little more than half done now."

"Oh, there is one last thing. How can the Herrscher core be developed to the extreme?"

"You should listen to the Herrscher of the Sky when it comes to developing the core of Herrscher to the extreme. But for now, it is basically impossible for you. First of all, if you cannot achieve the prerequisites, you must at least use The purest power of the Herrscher can kill more than million people. The weapon Bronya wants to make with the power of the Herrscher of Reason can kill more than million people."

When Bai Yan said this condition, both Kiana and Bronya gave up the matter immediately.

"Okay, time is running out. Let this last thing be considered a gift to you. Some experience in developing the Herrscher's abilities is enough for the two of you for now. So, see you later. .”

At the last moment, the puppet 'Bai Yan' showed a faint smile, and when it decomposed to the end, two light points entered the minds of Bronya and Kiana.

After Bai Yan disappeared, while waiting for Kiana and Bronya to absorb these experiences, Xilin and Jizi stayed aside.

"By the way, where are Fuhua and the Lawyer of Knowledge?"

"Them? Fu Hua was just taken out of the Dominion Theater by the Herrscher of Knowledge, so now there are only a few of us in the Dominion Theater."

What followed was a long waiting time. When the Domination Theater was about to disappear completely, Kiana and Bronya also woke up.

When she saw the Domination Theater about to collapse, Kiana directly opened a portal and led everyone back to the Salt Lake Base.

"Kiana! You are finally back! I thought you were still..."

Because Fu Hua had returned first, Theresa also began to worry about the lives of Kiana and Bronya.

But when she saw Kiana and Bronya, she was just relieved at first. But when she saw the person who was chatting with Kiana and Bronya, Theresa even said nothing Not coming out.

"Hey, Theresa. What's wrong? You haven't seen me for a long time and you are speechless?"

Himeko, who had put away the Valkyrie armor and put on her usual clothes, waved her hand towards Theresa.

"Himeko! It turns out you're not dead!"

The next second, Theresa threw herself on Jizi and hugged her tightly.
