Hi

"I'm sorry!"

Kiana and Zhang Wei knelt there obediently, both with bruised and swollen faces. Mei stood there with her arms crossed, her fists visibly steaming, and the black energy behind her was clearly visible.

"Ai Yi, do they always do this?"

Griseo tilted her head, feeling a bit curious about their practiced kneeling. It was as if they had done it countless times before, reminding her of the unyielding Pardo. She saw a shadow of a familiar person.

"Heh heh, every once in a while, they get taught a lesson by Mei over some trivial matter. Their muscles have developed a memory for it now," Ai Yi explained with a chuckle. Sailing the Sea of Quantum on the Hyperion could be quite boring, and these little incidents helped to liven things up.

"I see~"

Griseo's bright eyes dimmed slightly as she thought of her parents. As far back as she could remember, she often saw her father kneeling on keyboards or durians. She figured Zhang Wei and Kiana's current actions were probably similar to her father's.

"You two, is my cooking not good enough?"

Mei, dressed in a pinkish-purple apron that accentuated her perfect curves, stood with her hands on her hips, looking at Zhang Wei and Kiana helplessly.

She felt like a parent, constantly indulging these troublemakers on the ship. She touched her smooth hair, thankful that none had fallen out.

"Ahem, Mei, our physical condition, Zhang Wei's and mine, would be fine even if we ate instant noodles every day," Zhang Wei mumbled softly.

"Exactly! Not only do I have the Power of Finality, but I also have the Power of Saintess. Instant noodles won't cause any harm to my health," Kiana chimed in immediately. This was crucial for her future noodle consumption.

Mei thought about it. Although it felt strange, both of them made a lot of sense. She could only compromise; otherwise, Kiana would probably throw a tantrum.

"Whatever you say, but I don't want to see you two absent from dinner!"

"Otherwise... the consequences... you know!" Mei smiled kindly. The two shivered and quickly nodded. They had long since experienced Mei's cunning side.

For example, one time Mei had replaced dinner with bitter melon dishes. It wasn't that they couldn't eat it, but they simply couldn't enjoy the taste. Not everyone was like Theresa, after all. Whatever they disliked eating, Mei would make.

"Little Captain, are we heading straight to Earth next?"

"Let's go to the Elysian Realm first. After all, our new member probably has someone she wants to see!" Zhang Wei thought for a moment, seeing Griseo, and had a sudden inspiration. They were all talented individuals.

"Thank you, Captain Brother!" Griseo's eyes lit up, her voice soft and grateful.

Even though they were just memory fragments, Griseo would be happy to see Cosmo, Aponia, and the others.

Over the years, she had many dreams where she lived with the Flame-Chasers in a world without Honkai, leading ordinary lives and working. In her dreams, she was a manga artist. It was too beautiful, but unfortunately, it was the opposite of reality.

"Elysian Realm? A world made of data. Getting there won't be easy, and there's a high chance of encountering some complications!" Ai Yi analyzed in her mind. The normal way to enter the Elysian Realm was through the World Serpent's headquarters.

She knew Zhang Wei well enough to know he'd want to pilot the Hyperion directly in. What a troublesome Captain.

"It's fine. It's not like the Imaginary Tree is chasing us. The Hyperion will definitely be fine," Zhang Wei said confidently. He didn't need to join the World Serpent, so he naturally took the unconventional route.

Moreover... he was bringing a few Herrschers to Elysia, how considerate of him. He was even moved by himself.

The Herrscher of Finality, the Herrscher of Thunder, the Herrscher of the Sea (a planetary-level Honkai beast), the Herrscher of Flames. With so many Herrschers as weapons for Elysia, he was sure it would dazzle her.

"Little Captain is really willful, but who made you the Captain of the Hyperion!" Ai Yi smiled helplessly, expressing her support for Zhang Wei's decision. She began to prepare the data for the Imaginary Shift, aiming to minimize any potential changes.

"Jana, come back now. The Hyperion is leaving this world!"

"Okay!"

Jana responded. This world was truly fragile. With just a little effort, she could shatter it. After all, she had experience destroying civilizations, and her strength wouldn't be inferior to Kiana, who was the Herrscher of Finality.

"Targeting the Elysian Realm, a world composed of data. Initiating Shift!"

With a slight tremor, the Hyperion instantly disappeared from this world and began its Shift, with the Elysian Realm as its destination.

"Alert, alert, Elysian Realm code is in chaos!"

As the Hyperion approached the Elysian Realm, the alarm system was triggered. Klein, the administrator of the Elysian Realm (a model worker), had a headache. Her small hands moved like blurs as she quickly performed maintenance. It was confirmed that someone had breached the Elysian Realm, undoubtedly increasing her workload.

Ahhh, overtime again. Klein didn't want to work overtime...

"Is that a battleship?"

Elysia and the other Thirteen Flame-Chasers saw the Hyperion gradually entering the Elysian Realm at its boundary. The Realm was trembling, and the data flickered erratically, as if on the verge of collapse.

"Kevin, wait a moment. It might not be an enemy!"

Seeing Kevin about to draw Skyfire, Elysia quickly stopped him. It was better to observe first, lest they offend someone on the ship and the Elysian Realm suffer consequences.

"Mm!"

Kevin nodded, responding briefly. He trusted Elysia's judgment.

"Aponia, what do you see?" Eden asked with a hint of worry. The Elysian Realm had been problem-free for tens of thousands of years, but now a mysterious ship had broken in without any warning. Although it didn't radiate malice, it was hard not to be concerned.

"I see the beginning and the end. This ship is unbound by fate, as if it doesn't exist in this world," Aponia's voice was slow, as if on a delay, but at this moment, it also carried surprise.

"Elysia..."

Seeing Elysia fly directly towards the Hyperion, Eden's heart tightened. She didn't know if there would be any enemies, but Elysia was approaching so openly. It was, as expected, just like Elysia.

"I'm so dizzy, Ai Yi, what did you set up!"

Kiana and the others usually restrained their powers, so their senses were the same as normal people. During the passage through the Elysian Realm, it felt like riding a bumper car; they almost threw up rainbows.

"This is already the most stable method. After all, this isn't a normal world, and many of the Hyperion's functions are still locked," Ai Yi said helplessly.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Hi, is anyone home?"
