First Arriving in Honkai Impact 3rd

"Clatter!"

After a gust of wind swept through.

The window, hanging on by only a sliver, fell to the ground with a crash.

The tremendous noise made Han Jiang, who was lying on the floor, jolt.

It took Han Jiang quite a while to confirm that he had arrived in the world of Honkai.

More precisely, the world of a game called Honkai Impact 3rd.

The whole thing was simply too unbelievable, so Han Jiang's thoughts were inevitably a mess.

The television in the living room, which had been left on, was still playing advertisements from the local channel.

"Study hard in school today, become pillars of the military tomorrow, and fight for all that is beautiful in the world!—Issued by the Canghai City Combat Department, Shenzhou!"

Han Jiang was currently in a room on the outskirts of Canghai City. At some point, three Deadwalkers had wandered leisurely into this courtyard.

"Deadwalkers?!"

Peering through the gap in the door that would not shut properly, Han Jiang's palms immediately broke out in sweat.

The low-level Deadwalkers he had once brutalized at will in the game were now formidable enemies he would struggle to handle.

Before he had time to think further, a loud bang came from the door.

The filling inside the security door had long since vanished. The two remaining aluminum alloy sheets were ripped off with a screech by a grayish hand.

Han Jiang sprang up from the floor on reflex.

Without time to marvel at when he had become so nimble, he grabbed a Katana beside him and backed away while staring at the doorway.

Then, three Deadwalkers—one male and two female—filed through the door. Their scarlet eyes stared straight at Han Jiang as they staggered toward him.

Seeing the Deadwalkers up close, Han Jiang did not feel the same fear as before. Instead, he was briefly taken aback.

Before transmigrating, he had learned from some obscure forum that the Herrscher of the End, who had caused the Honkai, was obsessed with appearances. It seemed that was indeed true.

The three Deadwalkers were mostly gray, yet their looks were just a little better than those of ordinary people.

After that brief lapse, the Deadwalker in front had already pounced.

In his panic, Han Jiang wildly swung the Katana in his hand, but it dealt barely any damage to the Deadwalker.

The three Deadwalkers paid no heed to Han Jiang's resistance. Driven by instinct, they reached out to tear apart the living person before them. One Deadwalker's hand had already reached Han Jiang's shoulder.

"Hiss!"

The Deadwalker's claws tore through his clothes. Han Jiang sucked in a sharp breath as several bloody gashes appeared on his arm, droplets of blood seeping out.

"Domain Gear loading: 98%... 99%... 100%. Domain Gear loaded!"

"Ding. Obtained the famed Katana known as the representative of its kind, Muramasa of Bizen."

"Ding. Initially obtained the Hokushin Itto-ryu skill. Level: Lv. 1."

Looking at the status panel floating in midair, Han Jiang blinked hard. Was this a system?

And it even came with a starter gift pack?

Name: Han Jiang.

Honkai Energy: 100 points.

Crit Rate: 0.01%.

Evolution Points: 0.

Skill: Hokushin Itto-ryu Lv. 1 (Raise your favorability with Raiden Mei as soon as possible, or the skill will disappear.)

Domain Gear: Unnamed (D-rank, can evolve.) (Consumes 10 Honkai Energy per minute.)

Only then did Han Jiang realize that the shabby Katana in his hand was actually a two-star Tachi from Honkai Impact 3rd, mocked by players as the best blade in the village.

The trial skill given by the system happened to bring out its greatest effect. It was the exclusive skill of Raiden Mei, one of the protagonists, who specialized in the Tachi.

Just as another Deadwalker's claw was about to reach Han Jiang, Mei's stance as she performed Hokushin Itto-ryu automatically surfaced in his mind.

His body was almost entirely driven by instinct as he slashed at the nearest Deadwalker.

"Pfft!"

The instant the blade cut through the Deadwalker's body, the blood flowing through Han Jiang's veins seemed to accelerate.

Immediately afterward, Han Jiang unleashed the opening technique of Hokushin Itto-ryu, Five Souls Slash, one strike after another. In almost the blink of an eye, the Deadwalker had collapsed to the ground.

"Ding: Evolution Points +1."

Having successfully killed a Deadwalker, Han Jiang grew excited. His shut-in body, inactive for so long, had completely come alive.

After all, what young man had never dreamed of wreaking havoc across the world?

Having dealt with one Deadwalker, the remaining two pressed their attack.

With Hokushin Itto-ryu, a skill specialized for the Tachi, paired with the best blade in the village, Han Jiang easily took care of the other two Deadwalkers.

After receiving the notifications for Evolution Points, Han Jiang walked to the window and observed the group of Deadwalkers in the distance.

As one of Shenzhou's most prosperous cities, Canghai City had plenty of residents even in its urban-rural fringe areas.

After the Honkai outbreak, a large number of Deadwalkers were destined to emerge here.

"Woo-woo..."

Just as he was worrying about how to leave this place, urgent police sirens sounded in the distance. At the village entrance, a group of fully armed people got out of several vehicles.

"We are the Canghai City District Combat Unit. Please remain calm and stay in safe locations. Do not come outside. The combat unit will eliminate all Deadwalkers!" A loudspeaker on the lead vehicle broadcast the announcement, reassuring the survivors hiding in the dark.

The vehicles behind it stopped one after another. Large numbers of combat personnel, carrying weapons, began eliminating the Deadwalkers in an orderly fashion, while professional rescue workers searched for survivors.

"Captain Zhang, Honkai outbreaks are becoming more frequent. Since the start of this month, dozens of large and small Honkai incidents have occurred around Canghai City. We're completely short on combat personnel. Who knows how long this situation will continue?" After several people got out of the lead vehicle, one combatant spoke to their captain.

"Ah." The captain sighed and shook his head slightly. "Rescue the survivors as best you can. Every survivor has good Honkai Energy compatibility and may have the potential to become a colleague in the future. As for the Honkai..."

The captain did not finish his sentence. He picked up his weapon and rushed toward the area where the Deadwalkers were most densely gathered.

The instruments in Canghai City that detected Honkai Energy were already operating beyond capacity. All he could do was eliminate as many Deadwalkers as he could.

Han Jiang was puzzled for a few seconds after hearing the announcement, but he soon understood. Then he thought of the recruitment advertisement on television.

In the world of Honkai Impact 3rd, countless Honkai outbreaks happened across the globe every day. Accordingly, it was not strange for every region to possess forces capable of eliminating Deadwalkers and carrying out rescues.

As the combat unit entered the urban-rural fringe, it was like a stone thrown into a tranquil lake, sending ripples spreading outward.

The Deadwalkers that had been standing around aimlessly began to wander.
