Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

"What on earth is going on?" Kiana turned her head and asked the boy beside her, but the captain didn't seem to want to answer for her.

At this time, the figure also took the opportunity to taunt: "Look☆~ Is your captain guilty? After all, he is just a despicable villain. Let me tell you, Kiana~"

As the figure spoke, he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, leading the two of them away from the scorched earth.

Different from the scorched earth that had just been exploded by something, on the other side of the snowfield, there was still a peaceful frozen earth, no different from what we had seen before, and even the sky was equally gloomy.

However, this place also looks more deserted. Even if there is no snow, there are no traces of pedestrians passing by on the ground. Only the sky is not much different from the scorched earth just now. If you speculate like this, there shouldn't be much difference in time.

"As you can see, your captain rescued me at that time, but Kiana, you must not know why he rescued me, right☆~?" the figure asked with a smirk.

"..." Kiana was silent and looked at the boy beside her. Seeing that the matter had come to this, the captain seemed to have no more thoughts of hiding anything.

He let out a long sigh, looked at the cloudy night sky, and slowly said: "We... plan to capture her alive."

"…Eh?"

The girl's lips were slightly opened, and a confused voice came out of her throat unconsciously. This answer was really unexpected for her.

In her opinion, the captain's greatest possibility of rescuing Sirin at that time was still the kindness in his heart that was recognized by everyone.

At the same time, the captain has always been a person who has "hope" in his heart and never gives up easily. Perhaps he had the same idea at that time, hoping to make Siren let go of her hatred and stop going down the wrong path. Far away, he would take such action.

But...is it because of this reason in the end?

"Captured alive...? But why?"

Kiana still didn't want to think about the worst. The reason why she said she was "captured alive" might just be because she didn't want her to be killed by the leader of the "Anti-Entropy". However, even this idea was replaced by what happened next. The series of pictures that appeared in front of him completely denied it.

When Kiana's field of vision was completely brightened, the scene of the confrontation between the two people not far away came into view. If she looked carefully, one side was the captain she was familiar with from sixteen years ago, and the other side... was the captain who had already been there at that time. Siren who became the "Herrscher".

"Captain...are you with Siren...?"

Kiana couldn't understand it for a moment, but she was more surprised. Since the captain said that he rescued Sirin because he wanted to capture her alive, then... could it be said that his guess was correct?

"If you choose to make up for your mistakes, then no matter how much time it takes, I will stay with you..."

Just when Kiana was confused, the dark figure beside her muttered, and suddenly laughed very penetratingly at someone behind Kiana, "Hahahahahahaha, you said this at that time It was really touching at the time, I believed you so much."

"..." The captain did not retort, but just looked at the black shadow with a mean look.

"?"

The atmosphere between the two seemed to be tense. Only Kiana was still staring at the black shadow in confusion. After the black shadow noticed it, he immediately turned to look at her, "Kiana☆~Your captain lied to me like this at that time. Oh~"

"What did you say?"

"Kiana~ You are not thinking now that the "capture alive" your captain talks about is for me, right? "

"..."

"Hehehe☆~What an innocent little girl. It's a pity that it's not like that~"

The black shadow said and glanced at the scene not far away. Then, she floated in the air and crossed her legs with interest. "After he took me away from that man, he wanted to catch me back." "Destiny," in order to make me relax my vigilance, he said a lot of nice things to me, like the sentence just now, is one of them~"

"Hmph! Would you trust the captain so easily?" Kiana's vigilant tone revealed doubts.

"Kiana☆~Have you forgotten, although I am now the "Herrscher" in your mouth, before, if it weren't for the stupid actions of humans, I would have been just a fourteen-year-old girl. "

"..."

It doesn't sound unreasonable.

"And isn't the liar around you always smooth-talking? Instead of asking me, why not first consider whether you have ever been deceived by him☆~ Or, in fact, he has always been deceiving you? Hahaha☆~"

"..."

Seeing that the time was almost up, the black shadow took advantage of Kiana's wavering and directed her attention to the good show that was about to begin, "Okay☆~ You will know if what I said is true as you read on. "

After that, the quarrel coming from not far away cleverly covered up the sly laughter that the black shadow took the opportunity to make.

"Shut up! I don't believe you! You liar!"

The Herrscher, who was wearing a torn skirt and looked extremely embarrassed, pointed at the young man in front of him and yelled. His tone was very angry, but it was also mixed with some subtle emotions that were not very obvious.

Kiana can roughly judge from Sirin's clothing that this should have happened shortly after the captain rescued Sirin.

"Celine..."

"Don't think that you will forgive you after you saved me from that man. I hate you, you murderer of my mother!"

"..."

"What's wrong!? Why don't you say anything? Didn't you just talk a lot of truth and ask me to put down my hatred and follow you!"

Seeing the other party's silence, Xilin continued to question.

Judging from Xilin's tone, this conversation seemed to have been going on for a while.
