Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

Seeing the three people running away, Jizi couldn't help but sigh again.

"Run away... So, Captain, what are you going to do? Do you think they can really catch up and convince Wendy within 30 minutes?"

"Well...actually, I think they should have more time."

"Oh?"

"Theresa, Himeko, look at this."

What caught the eyes of Himeko and Theresa at the same time was a report just sent by the observation satellite of "Destiny".

"This is... five aerial warships of unknown ownership were discovered in the Pacific Ocean, and their targets have been lost??"

"Aerial battleship? Could it be said to be an "anti-entropy" force? "

"Hmph! Now that things have come to a point, are those old foxes from "Anti-Entropy" going to get involved? I’m afraid I’m here for the “Gem of Desire” too! "

Theresa frowned. These things that happened to her were already enough to upset her, but now even "Anti-Entropy" has started to take action. This is really a headache.

"Captain, what do you want to do?"

"To be honest, it's a bit contradictory."

"contradiction?"

"Yes, just now we were hoping that the reinforcements would arrive soon, but it is different now. Once Hollander and the others arrive in New Zealand, they will immediately launch a crusade against the Herrscher. At that time, Kiana and the others will only Can give up trying to persuade Wendy. "

"…really."

"So I'm thinking about whether to delay a little more time for them."

"Oh? What do you say?" Theresa also became interested.

"Major Himeko, please share the information with Kiana and the others first. As for what to do...you will know in a moment."

Himeko nodded across the screen and told Kiana and the others about the "Anti-Entropy" fleet. Upon hearing the news, the three of them accelerated their march further, hoping to find Wendy before them.

After a painstaking search, the three finally managed to catch up with the restless Wendy. However, the reinforcements of "Destiny" were about to arrive at this time, and the battleship group of "Anti-Entropy" should also be approaching. There was no time for them to convince Wendy.

However, the captain was not in a hurry to ask Himeko to recall Kiana and the others.

"Well...it's almost time. Xiao Misha, help me pick up Youlandel's communication. Be careful, use the public channel."

"Public channel? Are you sure?"

"Ah."

"I understand."

Misha hesitated for a moment, then helped the captain connect the communication.

The communication started, and the image of a girl with blond hair and blue eyes and a chic temperament appeared in front of the captain. This person was none other than Destiny's currently strongest S-class Valkyrie: Youlandel.

"There is no abnormality in the communication. Long time no see, course teacher! And Ms. Theresa."

The girl's tone is as straightforward as she appears to others, but in fact she is indeed such a person.

"Hello, Miss Hollandale."

Theresa responded politely.

"Long time no see, Bian... um, Youlandel." The captain paused for a moment and deliberately changed the title, and continued to reply calmly.

"It's okay, just call me Bianca like before."

"Bianca", which the captain half-said but then took back, was actually Hollandel's real name. Before leaving the headquarters, the captain had been calling her this way, but now that she was using the public channel and everyone could hear it, the captain wanted to be more formal.

However, Youlandel doesn't care.

The girl who saw her course teacher again after more than a year couldn't help showing a bit of joy on her face at this moment.

"Sorry, I haven't been greeting you since we parted ways. How are you lately?"

"If you exclude the part where you were attacked by a 2000HW level opponent, you would still be doing pretty well."

"That's the one!"

"Ok?"

"After seeing the mission notice sent from the headquarters and seeing it saying that Hyperion was being attacked by the Herrscher, to be honest, I was very worried. I had made an appointment with a friend to meet, but in the end I didn't care at all. "

"Really...I'm sorry, something unexpected happened and disrupted your original schedule, right?"

"It's okay. Compared to this, I was thinking at that time that since the course teacher was the commander, he would not be shot down by the Herrscher so easily. Of course, the facts proved that my guess was right. . "

"In fact, I almost fell off the boat with the person."

"Ahem, in short, it's good to see that you are safe and sound, teacher. Don't worry. I will arrive in New Zealand in a few minutes. Please don't conflict with the Herrscher head-on again until the crusade is over. "

"Well, Bianca too, please stay safe. Let's sit down and chat together after this matter subsides."

"Haha, it's just what I want, then..."

Youlandel nodded slightly across the screen, and then hung up the communication.

"Bianca...Captain, are you familiar with Hollandelle?"

Theresa asked curiously. She and Hollander actually knew each other personally, but their relationship was not that good.

But if we talk about a time when Theresa had closer contact with her, it should be the "Hercules" competition held within "Destiny" a few years ago. In the final arm wrestling final, Hollander was almost completely defeated by A certain petite nun with strange powers. . .

"Well... I first met her a long time ago, but for a while afterwards, I served as her... study guide?"

"She called you the course teacher. Is that why?"

"emmm..."

The young man smiled bitterly.

"I feel more like she was led astray by Rita."

The girl’s intuition told Theresa that there must be some strange gossip in this. However, right now, she had a more important question to ask the captain.

"So, using the public channel to communicate with Youlandel, what are you thinking about? Huh?"

"It's just to catch up on old times and use the public frequency. That may be because the internal channel is malfunctioning."

"haha, okay."

The two looked at each other in understanding and smiled.

Teresa actually realized it a long time ago. The reason why the captain used the public channel to communicate with Hollander was to expose her coordinates to the "anti-entropy" troops. In this way, "Anti-Entropy", who has received the news of "the appearance of the S-class Valkyrie", will definitely prioritize attacking Hollandel's battleship, thus causing the two sides to delay each other, leaving Kiana and the others time to persuade Wendy. Correspondingly, it will also increase greatly.

Of course, the reason why the captain dared to reveal Youlandel's coordinates to "Anti-Entropy" was because he believed in Youlandel's strength, and just a few battleships could not hurt her.

Sure enough, not long after, even Kiana and the three of them, who were fighting with Wendy in the suburbs of New Zealand, heard explosions in the distance.

"That was just now!?"

Wendy glanced warily in the distance, that was probably not the direction where Hyperion was.

"Miss Wendy! Come back with us quickly! You have also heard that if you delay any longer, the S-class Valkyrie and "Anti-Entropy" troops sent from the headquarters will come to attack you! "

Meiyi held the sword named Jingjin Master tightly in her hand. She guessed that the explosion in the distance should be that everyone tried to buy time for them.

"S-class Valkyrie? That's really what I want. I just want to try to see if my power has surpassed that of an S-class Valkyrie!"

"Haha, you are more arrogant than me. If you have the guts, fight with me first. If this young lady is serious, she will be no worse than an S-class Valkyrie!"

"...I don't want to fight with you. Hurry up and disappear from my eyes!"

"What? Are you scared!?"

"..."

Kiana's provocation seemed to anger Wendy, whose thoughts were still in confusion, and her expression began to become tense.

"Since you are going to stalk me, I will teach you a lesson."

"Oh, that's my lady's line!"

The four of them faced off in an abandoned flower field. Due to the influence of the "Herrscher", dark clouds gathered over New Zealand. The patter of raindrops began to fall from the sky, and the rain slapped on one of the pure white flowers and also on the bodies of the girls.
