Who Said miHoYo's Writers Couldn't Kill Off "Dead People"? (Thanks, Boss Crystal Salted Fish)

The real world----

The moment Ye Li fell into the Sea of Quanta, people in the real world used their loudest voices to send miHoYo's writers their most "cordial" greetings.

No, don't!

Prison Ye, my Prison Ye!

Sob sob sob... there's a knife in my eye.

Someone grab his hand!!!

MiHoYo! You have no heart!!!

Countless words merged into one sentence: miHoYo, I'm up at eight in the fucking morning!!!

As the screen filled with scrolling comments, the image began to fade to black.

Just when everyone thought this episode was ending like that, Otto's voice suddenly appeared, sending the blood pressure of people in the real world soaring.

That's right!

They had been so busy grieving Ye Li's death that they had forgotten the true mastermind behind all of this!

Thus, the comments shifted direction once again, turning from miHoYo's writers to Otto.

The real world.

After seeing the subtle looks in the eyes of his wife Kallen and his younger sister Vera, Otto felt utterly terrible.

If the other people from the orphanage had not been around, Otto would have wanted to shout at the top of his lungs:

"I, Otto Apocalypse, am not a villain!!!"

Unfortunately, no matter how stifled and wronged he felt, Otto could only hold it in.

Who told the video version of him to act so inhumanely?~

In fact, forget everyone else—if circumstances allowed, even Otto himself wanted to rush into the video and slap himself twice!

"Fuck you, Otto! What the hell did you go through to become like this!"

Back to the video.

In the pitch-black image, the narrator spoke in Otto's distinctive voice.

"The group from St. Freya Academy escaped the encirclement, while K423's whereabouts remain unknown.

"The Herrscher has fallen dormant once more, but the Honkai she caused across the world has not ceased.

"Under such a crisis, Anti-Entropy may reunite and form an alliance with my adorable granddaughter, Theresa.

"Additionally, Ye Li is an uncertain factor.

"He seems to be hiding secrets that even I do not know about...

"Still, between himself and K423, he chose her after all?

"But it does not matter.

"The experiment is nearing its end. Everything is under our control..."

Then the scene shifted to a beach.

Kiana lay there with her hair loose, sleeping like Sleeping Beauty.

With the crashing waves, an emptied syringe was slowly carried away by the seawater until it disappeared from sight.

Fuck, this visual language... it's clearly saying Ye Li's life was just like that syringe.

Person above, please stop talking!

Kiana, turn this imperfect story into the one you desire...

Holy shit! You really had to say it, huh?! The tears I just wiped away are falling again!

Kiana, forgive me for breaking my promise, but this is the last time...

Sob sob sob, damn lackey ghost, sob sob sob, I don't have any tissues left!!!

Just when everyone thought it was almost over, the image changed rapidly again, arriving at the boundless Sea of Quanta.

The next scene instantly brought the wailing comments back to life!

Because the Ye Li they had been desperately thinking about actually appeared there.

Although Ye Li's body was covered in wounds and he looked like a candle flickering in the wind,

then again, with miHoYo's writers' usual style, they definitely would not give a dead person any screen time.

So that meant...

Ye Li probably was not dead!

Sure enough, as the camera moved closer, Ye Li's body began to stir.

"Ugh... I can't fall here yet. There are still many things waiting for me to do..."

Seeing this, the real world's commenters all said that the hearts they had been holding in suspense could finally settle down.

Quite a few people even posted:

Dear writer, I admit I was a little loud earlier. There aren't many people around now, so I'll kneel for you. Please stop stabbing my Ye Li with knives.

I admit Honkai Impact 3rd is a lighthearted, cheerful, sunny story, so please write the rest of the plot properly, okay?

Since Ye Li isn't dead, the next part should be the story of him rising from the ashes and beating the BOSS, right?

That's right! Kill that fucking Otto!

The three-year deadline has arrived! Welcome the return of Emperor Ye Tiandi!

Just as everyone imagined the later plot would have Ye Li punching Otto and kicking Destiny, the video suddenly took a turn.

An eerie BGM suddenly began playing, and Ye Li sharply turned around.

A massive dark-green serpent coiled behind him, its winding body stretching straight into the abyss.

Its bloody maw snapped down like lightning. Ye Li was swept into its belly before he could even react.

The giant snake's tongue swept across the corner of its mouth. Human-like satisfaction appeared in its vertical pupils as its enormous body, just as strangely as it had arrived, dissipated into the darkness of the Sea of Quanta.

At the same time, a line of subtitles appeared.

To be continued...

Netizens in the real world: ???

The night was as dark as ink, moonlight quietly spilling across the ground.

Aside from the occasional chirping of cicadas outside the window, it was as though everything had been muted.

Suddenly, a scream pierced the silent night.

"MiHoYo! You and I are irreconcilable enemies!!!"

The girl's shout lit every motion-sensor light in the hallway. From the first floor to the top floor, lights came on one story after another.

The entire building instantly erupted.

A baby was startled awake and began crying, while someone shoved open a window and shouted, "Are you going to let anyone sleep or not? Don't we fucking have work tomorrow?"

However, Jilin, the one responsible for it all, had no time to care about that.

She stood in the middle of her room, both hands clenched into fists, her chest rising and falling violently.

Her eyes were filled with tears, but they also burned with the flames of anger.

Unacceptable!

I can't accept this!

He was clearly a hero who saved everything, yet he ended up like this!

MiHoYo, you truly deserve to die!!!

For someone like Jilin, who planned to devote her entire life to the cause of yuri, the death of a man should not have stirred any ripples in her heart.

But there was nothing she could do. The man in the video was simply too charming.

When she watched him give up his life to save Kiana, Jilin's heart was moved as well.

An absurd thought even arose in her mind.

"If it's him, then maybe I could loosen my standards regarding gender..."

At that thought, Jilin did not even bother wiping away the tears flowing from the corners of her eyes. She immediately took out her phone and typed several words onto the forum at blazing speed.

Damn miHoYo, give me back my husband!!!
