Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

On the way, Himeko was responsible for clearing the way and dealing with the mechas that were in the way, while Kiana just ran with Mei on her back while silently looking at the unconscious Bronya.

As an elder, Theresa forced a smile to her niece: "It's okay, Kiana, as long as we return to St. Freya Academy in time and treat Bronya, we will definitely make Bronya heal." Nia is getting better.”

"Aunt... um."

Kiana's voice was a little heavy, and despite Theresa's comfort, her expression was still inevitably disappointed, but she also understood that now was not the time to be sad.

Since Teresa and Kiana were unable to escape, Himeko was the only one to deal with the mechas in the building. For Himeko, who had experienced many battles, she was naturally able to deal with these things with ease, but with the tactics of the siege, There were more and more mechas, and the retreat speed of the three of them was indeed much slower.

Bang! !

Another Titan mecha was cut in half by the sharp blade in Jizi's hand, but at the same moment, Cocolia's angry voice suddenly sounded in the "ME Club" building.

"Do you think you can escape?! In that case, don't blame me for taking it seriously... huh?"

Before they finished speaking, Cocolia, who was on the tenth floor underground of "ME Club", cut off the floor broadcast. Before the broadcast ended, the three of them seemed to hear a dull sound, like something heavy hitting the ground. sound.

"Huh? What's going on? Why doesn't she speak?"

"Leave her alone, Jizi, we are almost at the entrance of the passage. There is probably an ambush waiting on the second floor!"

"I know, don't worry, Theresa."

The three of them had no time to take care of Cocolia and continued to rush through the steel building.

The tenth underground floor in the center of the "ME Club" building is one of the most important experimental centers of the "ME Club" secretly.

On the surface, "ME Company" only publicly stated that there are two floors of underground space under the building, one is used to store production materials, and the other is used to store important data files such as server data.

However, "ME Society" has never mentioned to the outside world that there are a total of ten floors of underground space under its headquarters, and everything from the second floor down is absolutely confidential to the outside world.

Top-secret intelligence control, nearly invincible defense configuration, and Cocolia's terrifying ambition...

The tenth underground floor of "ME Society" is the most important experimental base since Cocolia took charge of "ME Society". It is the place where she is really willing to put her energy into promoting its operation and scientific research.

As several elite mechas guarding the third underground floor fell, a young man holding a black sword came here.

When Cocolia was provoking and furious at Theresa and the others, the captain had already taken the opportunity to find Cocolia's hiding place with the help of Ai-chan.

The young man gently waved the sword in his hand, and several rays of sword light flashed in the dim space.

Just like cutting a cream cake on the dining table, two super alloy gates with a thickness of 20cm collapsed into several sections, and then collapsed suddenly, making way for the boy to move forward.

"Huh, I didn't expect you to find this place."

Watching the captain's arrival from the high suspension bridge, Cocolia's mood calmed down, and his expression was no longer as angry as it had been a few minutes ago.

"Bronya's resistance surprised you, but what does your emotion just now mean?"

"..."

"Is it because your own will was rejected by your daughter? Or is it because your "Herrscher" research plan was ruined? or…"

In the empty and dark space, the young man pointed the tip of the "Key of God" sword at Cocolia, who was standing on a suspension bridge dozens of meters high.

"Is it your sadness as a mother...?"

"Resistance? Sadness? Plan ruined? Haha..."

Cocolia seemed to have heard some funny joke. She tried her best to endure it at first, but finally couldn't help but cover her face with her hands and burst out laughing.

"Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha~ Who told you that my plan fell through?"

"what?"

"Hehehe, cough, look, what is this?"

I saw Kokolia snap her fingers out of thin air, and the dim lights instantly became brighter, and the bright light filled every corner of this underground space.

"That is…!?"

On the suspension bridge, a woman wearing a dark green Russian military uniform was looking at the boy under the bridge with her disdainful purple eyes.

Cocolia caressed the guardrail with one hand and walked on the suspension bridge holding a square box in the other. Her waist-length golden curly hair and white shawl with a red base and cotton collar swayed gently as she walked.

In the box in her hand, the "Gem of Desire" emitting green light was suspended stably in it.

"Thirsty, longing for gems...could it be that you..."

"That's right~ "Anti-Entropy" has long had the technology to make a container that can stably store the "Herrscher Core". Otherwise, how can we say that people in "Destiny" are trash? You think so, Mr. "Zhi"? "

"Where's Wendy! What did you do to her!?"

"Oh~ Is this what you care about in the end? Well, she doesn't have a few minutes left anyway, so I'll let you meet her. Maybe she has any last words?"

After saying that, Cocolia snapped her fingers again, and a hole opened in the floor not far from the captain. Then, an experimental platform slowly rose up.

"...!"

The captain stepped forward and saw a pale-faced girl lying there. The part of her right leg from the thigh down was missing, and from the thigh up to her neck, the bright red veins of Honkai energy had been eroded to the naked eye. Clearly visible.

"Wen... Di..."

"Well…"

The call from a strange voice caused the girl to open her lifeless eyes. Her pupils were no longer the vibrant green before, but were instead deathly gray and black...

The captain understood that this was also a phenomenon caused by being eroded by Honkai energy. I am afraid that Wendy can no longer see anything.

"who is it?"

"...Hello, Miss Wendy, I am a friend of Bronya and the others. You can just call me captain."

The young man tried to keep his tone as calm as possible, and his gentle tone reminded Wendy of what Bronya and the others had said before.

"Captain... Captain? Really... you are what Miss Bronya and the others call... Hyperion..."

"Well, it's me. It's okay now. I will take you back to St. Freya."

"...It's okay...Thank you for coming to save me, Mr. Captain..."

The girl shook her head, as if she already knew that she was about to die...

"Mr. Captain."

With some difficulty, the girl raised her hand full of Honkai energy veins, groped in mid-air, and grabbed the captain's clothes in the direction of the sound.

"Can you please help me pass a message to Miss Bronya?"

"..."

The captain was silent, and the girl just smiled and continued: "Let's just say, I already know the truth. In New Zealand, Miss Bronya attacked me not out of her own will, and... Miss Kiana, Mei Miss, they all treat me sincerely."

"Wendy..."

"I don't hate them. On the contrary, I really appreciate them for being willing to reach out to people like me...Thank you."

"You should tell them these words yourself after you go back. The first thing you should consider is how to grit your teeth and survive, and then properly apologize for the mistakes you have made. This makes sense, doesn't it?"

Facing the boy's words, Wendy just smiled sincerely. As a Valkyrie, she naturally understood what would happen if Honkai could erode her to this extent.
