Honkai Impact: Travel Notes of the Tree and the Sea

On the cliff of the final stone statue, Tiannan leaned on his cane and kept scanning the stone statue.

This is his 10th time here.

Ever since he accompanied Alicia here last time, that strange feeling of being spied on has always existed in Tian's mind.

After that, Tianjin went to the location of the stone statue again.

From a distance, Tian'an felt the familiar sight, and then quietly hid it.

If it had only been once or twice, Tian Na might have thought that it was Zhong Yan's gradually recovering consciousness that was observing Tian Na. But as Tian'an felt the sight more and more often, Tian'an seemed to realize that it was not the final consciousness.

That kind of thing seems more like forcibly defining some kind of ineffable existence.

But no matter how Tian Na feels, he can only feel pure "collapse". Apart from this, Tian'an didn't feel any other existence at all.

Although every observation has been fruitless, Tiannan is a person who always believes in his own feelings. He always believed that there was definitely someone else peeping at them.

Tianna also asked Alicia about this matter, but Alicia said that she did not feel any sense of being spied on.

But this time, Tian'an stood here, and after thinking about it a few times before, he already had some ideas in his mind.

Tian'an specifically asked Xingyan before, and Xingyan answered him like this at that time.

"The collapse you are talking about is something inherent in this giant tree. It will accompany the existence of civilization and unconsciously test it."

"And what I did was just make it more difficult to collapse, thereby speeding up the process of civilization selection."

Xingyan can successfully change the Hongkai phenomenon in this world through external force. In addition to her power level being higher than that of Honkai, Tian Na feels that another condition is that Honkai itself does not resist Xingyan's interference.

As Xing Yan said, collapse will only appear along with the development of civilization, unconsciously testing civilization.

So, why did Tian Na feel that inexplicable feeling of being spied on.

This problem, coupled with what Tiannan has detected, is extremely pure "collapse". Then, a somewhat bold guess appeared in Tian's mind.

"Perhaps the consciousness in the Honkai Impact was forcibly implanted?"

From the beginning, when Tian Na came to this world and came into contact with Honkai, he always thought that the so-called Honkai in this world had his own consciousness, so this understanding was always with Tian Na, until Tian Na faced I felt that strange feeling at the final stone statue.

At this point, Tian'an's investigation told him that there should be something wrong with the internal collapse of the final stone statue, but in fact the collapse here was exactly the same as the collapse in Tian's knowledge.

This also well explains the sense of dissonance Tiannan felt.

Because before the discussion came to this world, the definition of collapse in this world had already been forcibly changed.

After once again complaining about the idea that empiricism kills people.

Tian Na stepped on the invisible steps in the void and walked step by step to the stone statue of Zhongyan. Looking at the eye reflecting the starry sky on the stone statue's face, Tian'an finally spoke——

"You've been looking at me for so long without showing your face. Isn't it a bit rude?"

"Collapsed "consciousness"? "

There seemed to be no response to Tian's question. He just stood there and slowly closed his eyes.

After a long time, an obvious mechanical sound sounded from in front of Tian'an.

Tian'an opened his eyes and saw a twisted mist floating out of the eyes of the final stone statue.

Then the fog cleared, and a girl emerged from it.

Familiar gray-white hair, with a spiral ponytail tied on both sides of the head, red eyes, a familiar face... and mechanical lines and ball joints that can be seen everywhere on the limbs.

"...Bronya?"

Although Tian'an knew very well that the girl in front of him was definitely not Bronya, but her appearance was almost exactly the same as Bronya's, which still made Tian'an complain.

"I'm sorry, I'm not the little girl next to you. Although by your human definition, our appearance is indeed very similar."

The mechanical sound sounded again, and the girl slowly floated in front of Tian'an, looking at him carefully with her inorganic red eyes.

"To be honest, I never thought that an existence like you could exist in this universe."

Through Honkai, the girl witnessed everything Tianjin did on the earth. She even knew that the mastermind behind putting Herrscher into the earth was also taken under Tiannan's command.

"To be honest, I have never thought that the Honkai Impact that I first came into contact with has been artificially affected."

The moment the girl appeared, Tian Na felt that the phenomenon of self-consciousness that was originally thought to be broken suddenly turned into a soulless doll.

In other words, the mechanical girl in front of her was artificially implanted with the so-called "Honkai Consciousness".

"Speaking of which, you should know my name through Honkai, but what about yours?"

"My creator once gave me the codename No. 17."

"Now, my own name is..."

"...Prometheus."

The girl gave herself the name of the legendary person who stole sparks for mankind and ignited hope, just like she once represented the hope of mankind.

……

Tian Na proposed to take Prometheus back to the moon base, and the girl decisively agreed to his request. Because according to her calculations, Tian's existence has completely subverted her plan, and now her existence has little impact on the final outcome.

However, when he took her back to the base, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Bronya preparing to go out with two Xiers.

So Bronya and Prometheus just stared at each other, and suddenly Prometheus spoke.

"Since my existence should be earlier than yours, can I apply to maintain my image rights?"

Probably realizing that his speech did not seem to have the desired effect, Prometheus reached out and held his forehead.

"Well, it looks like this joke isn't that funny."

For a moment, everyone who was a little confused by the appearance of Prometheus seemed to feel a cold wind blowing from their backs...if there was wind.

Of course, although everyone present was a little confused about the appearance of Prometheus, there was one guy among the people who came to the moon with them who had a different reaction to it.

"No. 17? Were you also found by the rat?"

Mebius looked at Prometheus and seemed not surprised by her appearance. Rather, in her mind, it was strange that Tian Tian did not find Prometheus.

"Long time no see, Dr. Mebius. Also, my current name should be Prometheus."

"Okay, okay, whatever your name is. Anyway, because of the appearance of a certain person, all the preparations we made are useless."

Mebius's tone was full of cynicism directed at a certain person. She obviously made such a big sacrifice and was tortured by a certain guy all night, and finally got the research materials she wanted.

The results of it? Mebius was unable to research anything in the end.

That kind of thing absolutely cannot be genetic material in the traditional sense. It would be better to say that those things cannot even exist in a stable form for a long time.

Of course, Tian Na is certainly not responsible for this.

He told Mebius from the beginning that it was absolutely impossible for her to research anything from her body.
