Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

But at this last moment that was enough to decide fate, the next second, micro missiles denser than the rainstorm that was now beating on the ground of the "Third Skyport" fell from the dark deep sky, centered on the captain's position, and fell towards the group of Honkai beasts surrounding him.

The missiles pierced into the bodies of the Honkai beasts in their respective falling paths like steel needles, and then exploded at the same time. The dense missiles instantly destroyed the group of Honkai beasts surrounding the humans in the center.

"What!?"

Xilin, whose victory was suddenly snatched away once again, turned her head in panic, but the moment she turned her head, she saw a light spot in the heavy rain in the distance.

"Get away from that guy!!!!!!"

Along with these angry words, several beams of light of different calibers and colors whizzed through the rainstorm and strong wind, all pouring down on the energy barrier formed by the "Hersher of the Sky" in mid-air. Then, countless missiles flew from the direction where the beams had just come from, and once again all hit Sirin in the sky, completely engulfing her in the high temperature and flames brought about by the explosion.

With the roar of the engine, the petite figure clad in strange pure white armor flew across the dark sky, passed by countless Honkai beasts below, and safely arrived next to the young man who was being stared at by her crystal purple eyes under the tactical eyepiece, driven by the engine of the heavy backpack behind the armor.

"You idiot, you really don't want to live. If I don't come, you will be buried here!?"

“Chang, Chang Guang!?”

Although most of his attention was attracted by the strange pure white armor on the visitor that he had never seen before, the captain still recognized at a glance who the black-haired girl who was rushing towards him in the new type of armor was.

One of his most important friends, the founder of the "Tencent Sacred 1504 Research Institute", a legendary swordsmith from the Far East - Nagafune Nagamitsu, had formed a bond with him thousands of years ago and had followed him all the way to this day.

This is the identity of the mysterious girl who suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Changguang, you..."

"Stop talking nonsense and keep it. This is the armor for you!"

"!!"

The captain reacted immediately after hearing that and quickly stood up and prepared himself. At the same time, the "God Killer Armor" equipped with a large heavy firepower backpack that was completely inconsistent with the girl's petite figure also emitted a bright light of dismantling after the girl's quick operation, and gradually dissipated from the girl's body.

"Damn it, what is this time!?"

Xilin, who flew out from the smoke and dust, did not seem to have suffered any damage from the concentrated fire just now, but it was obvious that her mood had reached its lowest point.

"Um!?"

Seeing the girl in the heavy rain in the distance and the boy beside her who was gradually surrounded by a strange white light, Xilin felt something was very wrong. She was about to launch an attack, but the girl locked her with a sharp gaze as if she had been prepared.

"hurry up!"

The girl, called Changguang by the captain, removed her armor while urging the boy behind her. She then raised her extra weapon in the direction of the Herrscher with great effort—a red cannon that looked like an ancient warrior helmet from the Far East with two golden devil horns on top.

As Nagamitsu pulled the knotted rope at the rear of the cannon, the cannon named "Fire Blade Sanada" immediately spewed out blazing flames and fired several missiles at the "Hersher" in the distance.

"Humph, this kind of toy!!"

Looking at the missiles flying towards her, Xilin sneered. Then, a crisp snap of fingers was heard in the rainstorm. The missiles penetrated into the hole in front of Xilin and then flew out from other holes in front of her. Xilin easily packed them up and returned them to the other side.

Staring in shock at the missiles reflected by the Herrscher, the girl couldn't help but shout to someone behind her in panic: "Stupid Zhi! Are you okay? You're about to be killed by the enemy in one wave!!!"

The anxious urging received no response from the other party at the last moment. In the blink of an eye, the missiles exploded beside the two people in the center of the open space, and the girl's wailing was completely drowned out by the whistling sound of the explosion.

"call…"

Seeing the two people disappear in the violent explosion caused by the missile, Xilin couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. She almost thought that it was another master who came.

"Heh, in the end he is just an incompetent who came to die. Anyway, it is humorous enough for entertainment."

Xilin spoke in a casual manner and looked so proud that she did not notice the slight light coming through the smoke and dust produced by the explosion in front of her.

"Um!?"

Sensing something was wrong, Xilin uttered a puzzled sound with a hint of pressure, and when a sharp cold wind happened to blow from the end of the airport, blowing away all the smoke and dust in the center of the explosion point, Xilin immediately opened her golden eyes wide.

The rain continued to rain heavily and thunder roared.

The sharp-edged and lustrous soul steel metal blocks formed an extremely fitting armor. The pure white god-killing armor dotted with black covered every corner of the boy's body wearing it.

Different from the heavy firepower backpack just now, a large amount of silver-blue particles were ejected from the sword-shaped wings extending from the back of the armor at this moment. The huge wings of light were slightly exaggerated in size along the edge of the sword wings, releasing bright and dazzling light in the darkness.

The silver-blue light that falls on this place where all destinies are about to end, like the soft light cast from the center of the moon, is the symbol of the knight who has descended here wearing the god-killing armor named "Jue Knight Yueyang".

"Are you okay, Changguang?"

Through the holographic tactical eyepiece formed by the wing-shaped communicators on both sides of the ears, the heterochromatic eyes gently gazed at the petite girl in his arms.

"You guys just like to have fun, don't you?"

After being gently put back on the ground by the boy, the girl asked resentfully.

"You know what? I thought I was going to die here with you, and I was going to die under the cannonballs I made myself."

"…It's okay. If you really can't make it, Xiaoye will protect you. And…thanks to you, we have made it, haven't we?"

"Hmph, don't think I'll forgive you just because you say a few nice words. I haven't settled the score with you yet!"

"Uh...hehe..."

Thinking of the cover of the video that Elizabeth wanted to show him before, the captain could only laugh dryly in embarrassment.

But compared to those trivial matters, looking at the girl leaning in his arms at this moment, wearing only pink pajamas and white coat that had long been soaked by the heavy rain, and even wearing slippers on her feet, the warmth brought by the grateful mood is still greater than all the pain he had suffered before.

"Really... Thank you for coming to save me, Changguang..."

"Ahem, humph. Who told you to make such a big noise in the headquarters in the middle of the night? It would have been fine if it was just like that, but then I saw the notification that you had transferred the armor authority to someone else. After I finished the final debugging, I didn't even have time to change clothes before I had to rush over to deliver the package to you."

"..."

I see…

Listening to Changguang complaining to him with a red face, the captain glanced at the time displayed in the lower right corner of the tactical eyepiece...

At 06:27 in the morning...

At this time before, he was unable to defeat Sirin due to Otto's interference, and had already been hypnotized by his old friend with "Yu Du Chen" and fell in Hyperion's cabin.

Unexpectedly, by some strange coincidence, he, who had persisted with his old friend until this time, would receive crucial help from another old friend.

However, in this way, the last piece of the puzzle that the captain needed to defeat Xilin according to the original plan was also filled in by the new "God-killing Armor" given to him by the girl.
