Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

"There is a huge heat source behind Hyperion that is approaching the ship at high speed. Contact is expected to occur in eight minutes. The matching wavelength detection results - it is the Judgment-level Honkaimon!" Looking at the radar, it is approaching Hyperion at high speed. red dot, Milly reported loudly.

"Sure enough, are you chasing me again..." The captain frowned and turned off the annoying buzzer on the bridge. At the same time, the elevator behind the captain also opened again. Bronya walked out calmly and looked towards The boy in front of me.

"Captain, Helios is ready. Major Himeko asked me to inform you." Bronya, who pretended to be calm, reported in a hoarse voice.

"Bronya..."

The captain looked at Bronya's face, which was even more haggard than when she was unconscious in the ward. He wanted to say something, but Bronya shook her head, indicating that the captain did not need to worry about her.

That's right, they no longer even have time to grieve for the loss of their companions or even comfort each other.

Therefore, the captain stopped saying unnecessary words and turned around to concentrate on his work: "Milly, turn on the ship-wide broadcast, issue a zero-level evacuation order, and notify everyone on the ship to evacuate to No. 2 Gnaku to ensure the safety of the injured. The evacuation of medical staff has the highest priority, and we must seize the opportunity."

"Yes!"

"Bronya, after everyone has completed their evacuation, activate the optical camouflage systems of all transport ships and quickly separate from Hyperion. Although you may not be able to deceive the enemy, there is nothing you can do."

"Bronya understands."

After the evacuation order was issued, the captain immediately ordered: "Okay, now, everyone leaves the bridge, it's time for us to retreat!"

This time, no one answered, but everyone silently obeyed the order and entered the direct elevator one by one.

The moment she passed by the captain, Einstein, who seemed to have seen through everything, could only sigh heavily and enter the elevator, because she knew that this was the only thing she could do now.

Seeing several people entering the elevator, only the silver-haired girl beside him was still standing there motionless. The captain couldn't help but urge: "Xiao Misha, get in quickly, there is no time."

"...Captain."

"Ok?"

Tears fell on the deck at her feet. The silver-haired girl cried. She slowly raised her head and stared at the young man in front of her with somewhat angry eyes: "Didn't you say that we should retreat? The "we" you mentioned include Yourself? "

"..."

Misha's words made Milly and Bronya, who realized something was wrong, look at the captain who was still outside the elevator at the same time.

The captain was silent, not knowing how to explain to them.

"Answer me, Captain!" Misha asked loudly, crying.

"Xiao Misha...I need to stay here, I still have things to do."

"No, no, no, I don't agree, I don't agree!!!"

The girl who had completely lost control of her emotions cried bitterly and hugged the boy in front of her tightly, as if the captain would disappear from her if she let go. No matter how the captain and everyone tried to persuade her, she was unwilling to let go. hands.

"Please, come with us... let's run away together, okay?"

In normal times, if Misha begged him so hard, he would definitely relent, but now, only this request, the captain could not agree to it, nor could he agree: "...I'm sorry, little Misha, I can't leave. "

"Then! If you don't leave, I will stay here too!"

"No, retreat with everyone, this is an order!"

"I don't care! I don't want to leave. This time, even if it's your order, I won't accept it!"

"…well."

Time...is passing minute by minute.

In the end, the captain, who had no choice but to give up persuading Misha, sent the girl holding him tightly away in a way he didn't want to.

"Xiaoye."

The pendant on his neck glowed faintly, and the next second, the girl in his arms turned into a shadow and disappeared from the bridge.

On the other side, Himeko, who was about to rush to the bridge from Gnaku, saw the crying Misha suddenly appeared. She immediately realized what was going on and asked the crew around her to forcefully drag her onto the Helios. .

After forcibly sending Misha away, the captain asked the others to leave quickly. Knowing that they were powerless to do anything about the situation, they could only swallow their reluctance and close the elevator door.

Although everyone feels the same as Misha, they also know that at this moment, not wasting the energy of the captain's "God Key" because of their own emotions is the last thing they can do as members of Hyperion. It's over.

After a few people left in the direct elevator, the broken bridge of Hyperion returned to silence. Except for the occasional sparks caused by the cables falling outside the deck, which made a "squeaking" sound of electricity, the usually bustling There was no other sound from the bridge.

Not long after, a communication from Helios popped up on the holographic screen next to the captain. The captain looked at the silver-haired girl on the screen who was being held by Milly, her eyes red from crying, and he felt full of apologies: "I'm sorry. ...Xiao Misha, forgive me, okay?”

"……Certainly."

"Ok?"

Because he had just cried loudly, the captain did not immediately hear what the girl with an obviously hoarse voice was saying, but immediately, the captain was stunned when he heard the words in Misha's mouth.

"Promise... you promised me! You will fulfill my wish!"

"..."

what……

Speaking of which, there is such a thing.

In a brief trance, the captain remembered the agreement he made with the girl on the deck of Hyperion on that sunny day after the rain. At that time, he indeed promised that he would fulfill it. One of her wishes.

But...if it were now...

"I understand, then, Xiao Misha, what is your wish?"

"I…"

If possible, the captain also hopes that he can fulfill his original promise at this last moment, so... he hopes that Misha can give him a chance and make a wish that he can fulfill.

But maybe... now he has already thought about what wish Misha will make...

"Don't die..." The girl on the other side of the screen clasped her hands on her heart, took a deep breath, and spoke tremblingly:

"Don't die... absolutely don't die, Captain, this is my wish. Please... you must survive, survive, and then... return to everyone."

"..."

Yes...if it was Misha, he would definitely make such a wish in the end. He had already guessed it.

But letting the girl use her precious wish here, the captain felt that he was a bit cunning, but... yes, if this is the girl's wish, then before the necessary last moment comes, even if he has already made up his mind , even if he may not be able to fulfill his promise this time, he must try his best to survive.

"...I promise you, little Misha."

In the most solemn tone, the captain accepted the girl's only sincere wish.

When the silver-haired girl heard the captain's promise to her, she wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled: "Then... it's settled, Captain."

"Ah."

"I will wait for you to come back, Captain...because I...like you the most."

"Thank you, Xiao Misha, I will definitely abide by the agreement."

Keeping Misha's hard-fought smile and her heartfelt confession firmly in his heart, the captain, wrapped in a myriad of emotions, slowly reached out to cut off the communication and sat on the seat next to him.
