Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

"Oh, you are so stubborn..." The captain who couldn't resist Ji Zi finally couldn't help but shook his head.

"Why, don't you like stubborn women?"

"No, it would be better to say that I am more and more conquered by your charm, Major Himeko."

"Oh? Then come with me for a drink or two next time?"

"Well, it's better to avoid it..."

"Hey! Don't create a bad atmosphere at this time!"

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, understanding each other and ending this conflict "between adults" together.

Tesla seemed to finally reach an agreement after seeing the two people confiding their feelings for a while, and stopped trying to stop them. But before leaving, the captain still made the only condition, that is, after this battle is over, Himeko must honestly accept the captain using the "God Key" to help her remove the Honkai Impact from her body. "Artificial Stigma" is a treatment proposal to return to ordinary people.

At this point, Jizi couldn't refuse, so she had to accept with a grimace. Unexpectedly, the captain had set a trap for her here.

"There may be an ambush over there in the laboratory, and...Dr. Tesla, your safety..."

"It's not your turn to worry about it now. I'll go back to Helios once the aftermath here is completed. Is that okay?"

"That's all it can do. I'm sorry. I was the one who asked you to participate in the assault, but now I can't even guarantee your safety..."

"Okay, okay, even if you apologize again, I won't forgive you so easily. You might as well do what you should do quickly."

After saying that, Tesla turned around and continued to operate the equipment in front of him. The captain said no more. When Jizi nodded, the pendant on the young man's neck also shone a little under the will of its owner, and then Their bodies turned into shadows and disappeared into the control room again.

"Oh, these guys are so serious, how come they are all willing to go through fire and water for him..."

Seeing that the two had left, and he was the only one left in the bright control tower control room, Tesla couldn't help but mutter.

"Is it really like what Jiwotou said, that I was wearing too heavy colored glasses when I looked at him...?"

Whether it’s the girl that Huberion befriended who pointed a gun at him without even thinking, or the young Valkyries around him, and even some of them like Wuliangta Himeko who might not even be able to save their own lives. The "idiot" who wants to clear the way for him.

Without exception, these people all gathered around that person. Not only did they carry out the instructions from him wholeheartedly, but they also had such firm and almost "extreme" trust in him. She couldn't figure out what kind of ecstasy soup that guy poured into them. , so that they could regard his affairs as more important than their own lives.

Perhaps it was because thinking about this matter made the girl feel too troubled, or perhaps because the other party was too skilled in concealing his existence. Tesla, who was so upset, did not even notice a certain person who had been following him since the two left. Female figure.

"Okay, I'll take away all these shameful data from you "Destiny" without any courtesy. "

Tesla, who had successfully copied a lot of "Destiny"'s confidential information into her terminal, saw that the time was almost up and thought about running away with a bucket. However, before she could turn her head, a moment that made her heard... The female voice that felt her whole body tremble suddenly came to her ears: "Stealing things is not a behavior worth advocating~Dr. Tesla~"

"Who are you!?"

Tesla didn't even have time to see the other party's face clearly, and the other party had already taken action. At that moment, in the huge "Third Airport", no one except the fallen Tesla herself knew what happened to her. The girl's screams coming from the main control room were immediately covered by the sound of gunfire in the sky...

——03:57 am——

While the "Third Airport" on the east side of "Destiny Mediterranean Headquarters" was still in a melee, two people had invaded the "Seventh Airport" where Kiana was located.

Relying on the power of the "God Key", the captain and Himeko easily passed through the powerful barrier covering the "Helheim Laboratory".

"You are still being hugged by a princess at such a young age. Should I be shy or romantic? Fortunately, Teresa and the others didn't see me."

"I can't let you run over. The "Crimson" doesn't have flying components. "

"Sigh... that's right, then I'll take this opportunity to enjoy it a little longer?"

"Haha, I'm very happy."

During the brief interaction, the boy holding the red woman in his arms drove the armor on his body and flew deep into the laboratory along the dark and wide channel. However, when the captain was about to pass through the end of the first tunnel, he suddenly As expected, an ambush had been prepared for them.

The moment the captain flew out of the tunnel and broke into the waiting area of ​​the transport ship outside the core area of ​​the laboratory, a huge blue and white epee fell on the heads of the two men.

At the same time that Jizi was aware of the danger, the captain had already activated the thrusters on the back and legs of the armor, dodging the blow to the extreme but without any panic.

"Captain, who is this guy!?"

While the captain dodged the attack, Jizi took the opportunity to see the opponent's full appearance. It was a blue and white humanoid mecha with a heavy sword and a body that was several times thicker than those outside. . The two large physical shields mounted on the left and right sides of its shoulders, coupled with the terrifyingly large high-heat cutting epee, all showed the huge gap between it and those machines outside.

"It should be the mecha responsible for guarding this place. Its appearance seems different from the ones outside. I'm afraid it's an elite model."

"Leave this guy to me!"

"..." Seeing that the woman in his arms wanted to go down to fight, the captain, who was worried about Ji Zi's physical condition, did not immediately agree. Instead, he turned around and accelerated towards the tunnel leading to the core area of ​​the laboratory, trying to get away in one breath. other side.

But before the captain could do what he wanted, a warning popped up on the tactical eyepiece in front of him that the armor was locked by something's fire control. Then more than a dozen small missiles flew directly behind the two of them. The captain had to dodge first. Those missiles hit Purple plasma exploded immediately after the wall made of medium alloy, but the damage to the wall itself was very minimal.

"A plasma missile specially designed to target small enemies..."

"Captain, be careful!"

"!?"

Just looking at those special missiles for a moment, the mecha flew behind the captain. If Jizi hadn't reminded him in time, the captain might not have been able to control the armor in time to avoid the missiles coming from above. This sword.

What the captain didn't expect was that this seemingly bulky heavy-duty mecha, which was thought to be used for land warfare, could actually fly at high speeds on its own propulsion. In this way, even if the two of them wanted to get rid of it, it would surely be able to fly away. I will keep chasing him...

After regaining distance from the mecha, the captain couldn't help but think about a strategy to deal with it, but before the captain could think about it, the woman in his arms had already broken away from his arms and fell to the ground.

"Himeko!?"

Seeing this, the captain immediately flew down. The mecha saw the two of them landing and also fell to the ground. Its heavy body hit the floor made of the same special alloy, making a dull and loud noise.

The red woman looked in front of her opponent who was also holding a heavy sword like her, and couldn't help but shake the Aurora Ship-cutting Sword in her hand, looking eager to try.
