Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

When Theresa hurriedly cut off the communication and walked out of the room, she found Kiana standing outside the door with a frown on her face.

"Kiana!? Why are you here..."

"Auntie, Bronya..."

"Did you hear that?"

"Um…"

Theresa was a little helpless. In this case, she couldn't explain any more, so she could only comfort her: "Oh, silly niece, don't worry, I'm thinking of a solution. Bronya is fine!"

"But…"

"Okay, okay, trust me, I have to go to church. You have to be good and don't think nonsense!"

"Auntie, I want to go too!"

"No! Now that you heard it, I won't hide it from you, but the area under the church is a restricted area. Don't think about it. Just stay in the dormitory!"

"But! But!"

"Okay, that's it, I'm leaving. If Jizi asks you, just say I went to church, she will understand."

"…Oh alright."

Seeing Kiana respond with some disappointment, Theresa didn't say anything more and hurriedly went out in the direction of the church.

Seeing her aunt leave, Kiana didn't think about squatting in the dormitory and waiting. She thought to herself that Bronya was also her good friend. Now that Bronya was in danger, she would definitely do her best to help, and Not just sitting here.

The captain also said just now that it would be risky to stay somewhere underground in the church. Although I don't know what he meant, if my aunt goes alone, there might be some accidents. What if something happens?

Besides, I'm not a kid! The captain is an adult, but this lady is not an adult? Today I am going to prove to my aunt that I can help too!

Affected by these mixed thoughts, Kiana decisively chose to follow quietly. Just as she was about to go out, Meiyi, who happened to be going to the training ground early today to practice the "Heart Cut Jue", also walked out of the room.

Seeing Kiana hurriedly changing clothes to go out, Mei Yi wanted to "cross-examine" her, but Kiana was afraid that Mei Yi would be very worried when she found out about Bronya's situation, so she shook her head back and forth and insisted that it was just a trivial matter, but Mei Yi couldn't resist. He didn't ask any more questions.

"Well, Mei, I'm leaving now~ See you later!"

After saying that, Kiana quickly walked out of the dormitory and ran towards the teaching building behind the dormitory.

"Kiana, really...run slower, don't fall!"

"Hey, I got it, Mei~" Kiana turned back and waved to Mei as she ran.

Seeing the girl's figure running further and further away, Mei Yi just looked at her with concern, hoping that she wouldn't really fall down halfway.

However, neither Kiana nor Mei now knows how their fate will change drastically after this short separation...

......

In the garden near St. Freya Hospital, after hanging up the communication, the captain reconsidered the problem just now, how to buy more time for Bronya.

The "consciousness immersion" mentioned by Theresa just now awakened him. If Bronya's problem was due to damage to the chip and obstruction of brain consciousness, the power of the "Key of God" in the hands of the old man might be able to Can you help?

"How about "Yu Duchen"? "

"Huh? You mean..."

"Bronya's brain chip is damaged. We can't help now, but...it's essentially a problem of consciousness. If we rely on the power of "Yu Duchen" to temporarily replace the chip's function, it will have a negative impact on Bronya. Nia’s consciousness will guide you..."

Fu Hua put her index finger against her lips and thought for a while. She recognized the theoretical feasibility of this method, but in terms of its effect...

"I'm afraid this is not guaranteed to be useful. We cannot be sure that the problem lies here. This is at best an inference."

"No, the reason why Bronya has been in a coma is because the brain chip is damaged and some brain functions cannot operate normally. This chip is like a "bridge" that connects Bronya's consciousness to the normal operation. "

"this…"

"Imagine that when this part of the function was damaged for the first time, it was solved by implanting a chip into her. If the chip is damaged, other methods can also be used to temporarily replace the chip."

"A temporary "bridge"..."

"Ah."

Fu Hua closed his eyes again and thought. If he followed the captain's deduction, "Yu Duchen" might really come in handy. Although it is not certain, as far as the current situation is concerned, there is really no better way besides this.

"Okay, since it's your suggestion, I'm willing to try it."

"Then without further ado, let's go to Bronya's place now."

After reaching an agreement, the two hurried back to the hospital. At first glance, Bronya's condition seemed no different from the previous time, but after the captain checked her pulse, he was convinced that it was just as Fu Hua said. In that case, Bronya's condition is getting worse...

After instructing the caregivers not to enter the ward for the next period of time, the two of them prepared to have Fu Hua sneak into Bronya's consciousness to try to alleviate her symptoms as previously agreed, while the captain was beside them. Standby.

Since when using "Yu Du Chen" to sneak into the consciousness of others, your own body will become defenseless, and unexpected situations may occur in the outside world, it is a wise choice to leave someone by your side to take care of you.

"I'm going to start, Twiggy."

"Well, I will be watching over you, Bronya, I'll leave it to you."

"I will do my best."

After a simple conversation, Fu Hua sat on the chair next to the hospital bed and held Bronya's thin hand.

A strange red light swirled in the hands of the two, and then the red light covered Fu Hua's body. Several feathers fell from the two of them, and then disappeared without a trace.

"..."

The captain was relieved when he saw that Fu Hua's body gradually relaxed completely. Presumably the old friend must have successfully sneaked into Bronya's consciousness by now.

So the captain waved his hand, and the closed doors and windows of the ward were each covered by a space barrier that could not be seen. In this way, the noise from the outside world could not interfere with Fu Hua, and ordinary people could not break in suddenly through the barrier.

Although no one will come again after asking the caregiver, this is for safety reasons after all.

After doing this, the captain stayed by his old friend's side without saying a word, waiting for her to open her eyes and deliver the good news. For a while, there was only silence in the spacious ward.

At the same time, on the other side, when Kiana was following Theresa and sneaking into the St. Freya Cathedral, which she didn't come to very often, she actually saw Theresa touching the prayer platform at the end of the church. Afterwards, a secret door appeared on the ground next to it.

Theresa pressed the secret door a few times, and the door opened. When she walked down the stairs of the secret door, the secret door immediately closed again, and then turned into floor tiles again. It was completely obvious that There are no signs that it has been opened.

While in awe, Kiana looked around and saw no one around. She walked over and touched the part Theresa had just touched for a while before finding the hidden button. Looking at the secret door that appeared under her feet, she couldn't help but become a little excited. .

However, she didn't expect that there was an operation interface on it, which seemed to require a password. She didn't pay much attention just now. After losing a few times randomly, as expected, the secret door didn't move at all.

Kiana thought that this was going to be troublesome, but within a few seconds, she had an idea and typed a series of numbers on it as if she had thought of something, and the door opened with a "swish" sound.

"Auntie, I'm just guessing, the password is really my birthday...hehe, that's right, how can it be possible to defeat this young lady."

Kiana smiled proudly, and with inexplicable excitement, the girl followed quickly. However, the road below was really dark, and there were no lighting facilities on the walls and overhead.

Fortunately, the road was very narrow at the beginning, so it was okay to walk against the wall in the dark. After walking for a while, Kiana's sight became brighter along the gradually wider space.

As her vision returned, a huge door that was obviously completely different from the painting style here also appeared in front of Kiana.
