He didn't play the game, but from what he heard about the subsequent anime, this version of the Herrscher of Thunder could apparently spar with Finality for a short while...
Hiss.
If this were Honkai Impact 3rd, then the Herrscher of Thunder in this world view doesn't seem to be that powerful.
But besides the Herrscher of Thunder, there's also the Herrscher of the Void lurking here, filled with hatred for humanity and on the verge of awakening at any moment.
And beyond the Herrscher of the Void, Cocolia, an executor of Anti-Entropy, is also observing every move in this city because she's targeting the Herrscher of Thunder.
Although I don't know how she'll solo the Herrscher of Thunder, the Quantum Teleportation System and Titans she controls are more than enough to kill Lin Yu, who only knows a bit of martial arts.
And that's thinking on the grand scale.
On a smaller scale, once the Herrscher of Thunder awakens, Changkong City will be instantly consumed by a massive amount of Honkai Energy.
Lin Yu's basic Honkai Energy resistance will ensure he doesn't instantly turn into a Meele when the Honkai erupts.
But the problem is, he might not turn into a Meele instantly, but others will!
Others will either turn to dust or become newly formed Meele.
Coupled with the inevitable large numbers of Honkai Beasts, forget about Titans or Herrschers, these Honkai Beasts and Meele alone would be enough to kill Lin Yu.
"Don't panic, Changkong City doesn't explode until early 2014, let me check..."
He frantically looked at the desk calendar, and Lin Yu's words suddenly stopped.
The calendar on the desk was flipped to February 2014.
Then what's the point of saying anything!
Run, I must run.
Don't think about being some big hero – big heroes explode!
The moment he thought about the future he might face, Lin Yu felt his current drive to act had been pushed to the limit.
He pulled out his phone, intending to check for information and buy a ticket, but then he discovered his phone was broken...
I'm done for. How is it that the situation keeps getting worse?
After rummaging through drawers and cabinets to find his bank card, Lin Yu realized he had another problem to face, which was...
[Although your memory isn't great, you still remember the password to this universally accepted bank card is your birthday, after all, that person proactively helped you get it.]
Okay, even though I don't know who that person is, I'm saved now.
Go out, buy a phone, and book a ticket to escape!
[Escape? Is that truly your intention? This is a good opportunity to get close to the Herrscher of Thunder. If you miss this chance, you might never have a similar opportunity in this lifetime.]
This narration is messed up. Why would I want to get close to her?
I've completely understood it now. Besides occasionally providing some information, this narration is utterly useless!
An hour later, in a commercial street in Changkong City.
After leaving his old phone in the room, Lin Yu withdrew cash from a bank on the commercial street and was already choosing a phone in a shop.
When I say choosing, I actually just glanced around and felt there was no need to waste time here.
There was a lot of money in the bank card, not an amount a teenager who had just come of age should have.
Coupled with the skills he possessed, Lin Yu actually had a bad premonition.
But just as he selected a phone, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.
And the shop assistant in front of him had her attention drawn to someone behind him.
"Ara, I finally found you."
This voice, I've heard it... it's a main character.
But why is my body frozen?
Move! Why aren't you moving!
Completely unaware of why his body was stiff, Lin Yu could only remain in place as the woman behind him continued to approach.
As she got closer to Lin Yu, she leaned in and whispered in his ear.
"We've been out of contact for so long, I thought something had happened to you."
"What, are you that surprised to hear my voice? Can't even turn around to face me?"
"My foolish younger brother."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu, whose body had returned to normal, immediately adjusted his expression and turned around.
Then, he saw a woman with short, ash-blonde hair smiling and looking at him.
The moment their eyes met, a character introduction template immediately popped up in Lin Yu's vision.
[Name: Rita Rossweisse]
[Identity: Schicksal S-rank Valkyrie on a mission in Changkong City, your adoptive sister.]
[Current Favorability: 50]
[Note: Don't be fooled by her smile; she's already angry. You'd best figure out how to appease your difficult sister.]
Chapter 3. Show the spirit of a Transmigrator!
Just then, after introducing the characters, the narrator chimed in again.
[Sister? Yes, you do have a sister. But that doesn't mean you have to listen to her about everything.]
[You're eighteen now! You're an adult! You need to take responsibility for your own actions! Now, show her with your actions—who really runs this household!]
I swear, you really want me to get beaten up every day, don't you?
And show Rita who's in charge with my actions... Damn, she's an S-rank Valkyrie.
Even after the Second Honkai War, when the Valkyrie advancement assessment lowered its requirements, she was still S-rank!
Even if she was mocked daily in the original story, she was still one of the top combat forces on the human side!
Well, at least in 2014, that was true. Probably...
In front of Rita, whether it was about 'showing her who's in charge' or playing the 'you owe me' card, it was all impossible.
The reason was simple—Lin Yu was no match for her.
Even without using Honkai Energy, an S-rank Valkyrie's physical capabilities already surpassed the limits of ordinary humans.
If some unruly punk dared to hit on her and get handsy, Rita could probably make them disappear without a sound in an instant.
"Oh, hello there, beautiful lady..."
[See, someone's making a move! A man must fight for love—]
"I'm truly sorry."
Facing the rude man who directly reached out to her, Rita took a step back with a light smile. In a movement almost too fast for the human eye to follow, she easily took the man down.
"I'm not in a good mood today, so I really don't have the energy to waste with you."
[Don't be afraid, she wouldn't dare reveal her strength in front of ordinary people. Moreover, this is Anti-Entropy territory, she wouldn't dare act rashly. Right now, right here—]
Shut up already!
Forcing himself to ignore the narrator, Lin Yu could only focus his attention on Rita.
Before, while looking at his skill list, he had pondered his 'identity.'
Martial arts, weapon usage techniques, and hacking skills weren't exactly difficult to acquire. There wasn't much to say about them.
But if you considered the skill [Basic Honkai Resistance] alongside them, the origin of these skills would become clear.
Being able to master this skill meant that Lin Yu's identity, to put it bluntly, was that of a member of one of the three major anti-Honkai organizations.
Combined with the fact that Rita was his adoptive sister, he could basically confirm he was from Schicksal.
"Hmm, why are you spacing out today?"
Seeing Lin Yu lost in thought, Rita sighed helplessly and then, taking Lin Yu's hand, pulled him out of the shop.
"This isn't a place to chat. Come with me to where we need to go."
Seeing Rita beside Lin Yu, other passersby cast glances of envy at Lin Yu...
Oh, he's a handsome guy, so it's fine.
But only Lin Yu knew that being held by Rita wasn't as pleasant as everyone imagined.
The touch of Rita's hand was indeed soft, but the strength emanating from it made Lin Yu feel that if he made the slightest wrong move, she could easily snap his wrist in an instant.
Ah, this is a big problem.
This confirms it, then my mission as a Schicksal member in Changkong City is probably...
[Mission? No, as the Child of Destiny, you don't need to care about anyone else's expression!]
[Show the spirit of a Transmigrator and make the woman before you submit to you!]
No, what do you think a Transmigrator is?
Some Dragon King who makes people bow down mindlessly?
If you have such high expectations for me, at least give me a one-hit kill cheat!
[Although you're complaining, you deeply know that in critical moments, one can only rely on oneself—After all, as an orphan, you're used to having no one to depend on, so having such a correct mindset is normal.]
Oh.
You're right.
I shouldn't have expected anything from you, you useless piece of trash who's only good for giving information.
After Rita brought Lin Yu to a cafe, she placed their order and then looked at her 'brother.'
"A'yu, you're acting very strange today."
Seeing Lin Yu still silent, Rita continued on her own.
"Is it because your companions have lost contact, and you're starting to worry? Or perhaps..."
"——So, you've already realized the truth about our mission target, Kiana Kaslana?"
Damn it, I knew something like this was going on.
After Siegfried left without a word, Kiana drifted alone from Europe to the Far East and lived there for so many years. There's no way Otto would let his most precious experimental subject just wander around freely.
During those years, Kiana was definitely surrounded by a large group of Schicksal members protecting her. And my current identity—is one of those unlucky bastards.
Sigh, no matter what, I need to find a way to explain myself now.
After all, this damn narrator is useless, only good for providing information.
He already told me Rita is angry. If I don't explain clearly, I'm probably in for a rough time.
"Lord Rossweisse—"
"Hmm?"
"Alright, Sis."
"Mm."
Hearing Lin Yu change his address, Rita smiled in satisfaction and said.
"Even though it's work time, we're alone right now, so there's no need to be so formal."
"Tell me, little brother, why haven't you contacted the organization for so long after losing contact?"
"I overslept."
[Oh! Nice! You almost slept forever, so you really did oversleep.]
At this moment, Lin Yu irritably scratched the back of his head and said with annoyance.
"I don't even know when my phone broke. My head still feels groggy."
"...Is it because of this?"
