Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

"Red Kite Immortal, I know you are laughing at the fact that the current development does not match my description, but I also said that this was my original plan."

Of course Otto understood what Fu Hua was laughing at, but no one would have thought that this was also part of his plan, so Otto changed his relaxed tone and spoke in a much more serious tone than before.

"In order to avoid interference in this plan, I need you to help me tame the branches so that he can pass through the part of the plan to 'awaken Kiana's consciousness with a sacrifice' in his sleep safely. However, he still came Well, the moment he appeared on this battlefield, my original plan was completely disrupted by him."

"What?"

"I'm ashamed. When I saw my old friend appear, the first thing I felt in my heart was not that I felt sorry for him, but that my plan could take a more efficient and stable 'shortcut'." I felt a sincere pleasure, and at that moment, I decided to implant the "Quiet Gem" into K423's body. "

"You...if you do this...wouldn't it be..."

If the "Herrscher of the Sky" was only awakened by absorbing a large amount of Honkai energy, and stimulated by the appearance of the victim, as Otto said, Kiana might really be able to take back her body, but if she had it from the beginning With two "Herrscher Cores" in the air, the difficulty for Kiana to regain her consciousness will rise to an unimaginable level.

In this case, wouldn't it go against the plan he said? Fu Hua couldn't help but feel confused, and Otto immediately responded to her doubts.

"Yes, in this way, no matter how strong Kiana's consciousness is, it will be impossible to take back her body. And as long as the Herrscher is still there, the number of victims will continue to increase. "

As he said that, Otto looked at the dark sky where the rainstorm had not stopped, and sighed heavily: "When those children and you, whom he cherished the most, died one after another in front of his eyes, relying on pure wisdom, strength, emotion, and ties had already When it is not enough to avoid tragedy, what choice will my old friend Zhi make in order to save them and you?"

"Ahem, what are you... talking about...?"

"Ok?"

Fu Hua's clueless reaction was a bit surprising to Otto. He originally thought that Fu Hua was hiding this secret that was related to the future destiny of mankind out of personal emotions. But... she turned out to be the one who was completely unaware. ?

"Red Kite Immortal, could it be that...you don't know the truth hidden in him?"

"...?"

the truth?

Otto's words made Fu Hua confused and suddenly felt as if she had never understood anything about her old friend...

Is that an illusion...or...has she forgotten?

In other words, she really didn't know anything about that person, but she was too self-righteous and thought she knew everything about him.

Looking at the extremely real doubts in Fu Hua's eyes at this moment, Otto, who suddenly understood everything, laughed uncontrollably in front of Fu Hua. That kind of crazy laughter without any scruples, just like It was said that this man was really completely crazy. It was not until tens of seconds later that Otto, who took a few deep breaths, managed to calm down and lowered his posture towards the girl in front of him.

Her consciousness, which had become blurred due to excessive blood loss, suddenly became extremely clear-headed when the blond man in front of her leaned over and whispered softly. That was a possibility that she had never thought of.

It is also a secret that she, who considers herself "stupid", cannot know.

"Zhi... is the "end" we have to face in this era——"

"!!!"

The limbs and body pierced by the sharp spear began to move with the hoarse roar and the sudden struggle of its owner, while oozing blood. Knowing the pitiful and sad secret hidden in that person, for Fu Hua , the unforgettable pain caused by immediately realizing what kind of tragic ending that person will have in the future is far more painful than the death pain she is suffering now.

And Otto, who had given up everything to the girl in front of him without reservation... also raised the golden pistol in his hand towards her again.

"I'm sorry, Immortal Red Kite, I have to do everything possible to force him to take the road to the end. Don't worry, you won't really die, and this world won't be "collapsed" so quickly. ” Destroyed, the authority of “time” will bring us all to our respective endings. "

"..."

Staring at the pistol in the man's hand, Fu Hua felt as if she was crying. She didn't know whether what was sliding down her face was the rain or her sad tears...

"Little... branch..."

At this moment, Fu Hua wished so much... that he could just die, at least in this way... it would also show that that person had not followed the path that Otto had prepared for him and would lead to eternal disaster...

The moment before Fu Hua was shot through the head by the hot bullet fired from the opponent's gun, Fu Hua seemed to suddenly remember... More than five hundred years ago, the boy spent more than ten years taking care of her who was seriously injured and suspended in death. Even after she finally woke up, her whole body was still intact. Having not yet recovered from the paralysis, I could only rely on him, live with him, and be cared for by him during those long and peaceful days...

Unexpectedly, it took thousands of years, but in the end, when she was really about to die, she got the answer she had been avoiding but also been pursuing.

"So this is ah…"

"From that time on...I have been protected by you..."

"Really...I've taken a lot of detours...I'm really a foolish person...I should have discovered it earlier, Xiaozhi, I treat you..."

The dull sound of gunfire and the flash of thunder spread to the sky together. In this heavy rain that never stopped, the words that the girl could not express to the boy sincerely became her feelings that she could no longer convey...
