The Snake Returns from the Darkness / The Bug Tries to Kill Herself / Schicksal's Far East Branch Prepares to Enter the Gaming Market
"I don't know, I really don't know." Cocolia said with a sense of relief, "Over the past few decades, I've done many things and made many mistakes. It's impossible for me not to regret them."
"But there is one thing I have never regretted."
"That was in the spring of 2012, when I brought you back from the snowfields of Siberia."
Bronya, you are my pride.
"I heard that Bronya, you actually cried when you were voicing this scene," Kiana asked curiously.
"No, I didn't..." Bronya turned her face away.
"Oh, don't be shy."
"Why do I feel like someone's missing?" Rosalia scratched her head.
"Lilia felt the same way."
On the Siberian Snowfield, Xing Mar stared at Cocolia with resentment.
Cocolia also felt awkward. When she was dubbing this scene, she didn't realize that someone was missing until now. She only remembered that Anne only appeared in a group photo in the movie.
Several days later, on the Far Eastern border, Bronya finally accepted the Herrscher of Reason Core after being enlightened by Welt. Rosalia and Lilia also joked about Bronya's name.
Arlene and her sister, along with Seele, all chose to stay in Siberia.
Finally, at dusk on the island, they played hide-and-seek.
Chapter 190 The Snake Returns from the Darkness / The Suicidal Kiana
At the very end of the movie, a special post-credits scene appears: when the Abyss Flower Eye reopens, Schicksal detects a powerful energy fluctuation, but when the Valkyrie team arrives, there is nothing there.
Upon hearing the report that the corpse of the Honkai Beasts Chi You had disappeared, Amber realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately reported it to Otto.
"Chi You?" Fu Hua, a native of Shenzhou, recognized the name. Seeing the curious looks on everyone's faces, she explained, "Chi You, the warlord of Shenzhou. Legend has it that he fought against the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor at the Battle of Zhuolu, and was eventually killed by Yinglong."
"In other words, in the context of the Honkai, mythology is linked to the Honkai, but people in ancient times couldn't explain it, so they attributed it to gods," Mei said.
"Isn't that what old-fashioned people are like? They're clearly warriors from Previous Era, yet they have a title like 'Scarlet Bird Immortal'." Little Knowledge complained, wondering why Fu Hua appeared so early and had a role in every movie, while her character was nowhere to be seen now.
[Following this, a bank president, after transferring 50 billion euros, mysteriously died in a car accident. The fat boss arrived at the Anti-Entropy base and, without hesitation, shot and killed the guarding soldiers.]
"Lord Jackal, the mission may begin."
The camera zooms out to a short distance away, where a woman wearing Jackal headdress stands. The camera zooms in suddenly, revealing only a slight smile on the woman's lips.
The scene shifts to a few minutes earlier.
Raiden Ryoma is checking Ziegfried's physical condition.
Ziegfried's arm had been eroded by Honkai, with purplish-red marks spreading. From their conversation, it was learned that Ziegfried had to take suppressive drugs to suppress the Honkai Beasts factor in his body.
"My daughter needs me most right now... but I can't help her with anything!"
"You stinky old man?"
"おfather さん?"
Kiana and Mei were stunned when they saw Raiden Ryoma and Ziegfried appear in the same shot.
"So Ziegfried really was buried by the plot. No wonder he hasn't appeared yet." Theresa's doubts about Ziegfried's lack of appearances were explained.
"The damage to the human body caused by genes diluted for nearly a thousand years needs to be suppressed with drugs. Is Kevin's body really human?" Mei couldn't help but voice her inner doubts.
Who knows???
The base suddenly trembled, Ziegfried let out a hysterical roar. Just as he was about to lose control, he shook off Raiden Ryoma and let him go first, while he stayed behind to face the unknown enemy.
Ziegfried reverted to his semi- Honkai Beasts form from the first movie, staring intently at the approaching enemy.
The camera then shifts to a child in a bustling city, looking up at the moon. At the same time, nearly 700,000 people are doing the same thing, looking at the new moon.
In that instant, the world changed.
The images flashed by one by one, from the back of a woman standing in front of a huge storage tank containing green liquid, to a woman with a cold expression standing on a villa platform, and then to the Gray Serpent holding an umbrella, which was familiar to the audience.
The snake has returned.
"Jackal and Nata?"
Mei was stunned. World Serpent really was World Serpent Technology Co., Ltd. Jackal was her assistant, and Raven Natasha and Kevin were at the same level, both corporate slaves.
But the Raven also has another source of income.
"Speak, you little lackey," Mobius suddenly said, "How long did you beg him?"
"What?" Kevin didn't react.
"There are so many people in the World Serpent, and he didn't choose me, May, or Vill-V. He only chose you to become the leader of the World Serpent in the story. Why?" Mobius crossed his arms.
"Maybe... because I'm a man?" Kevin didn't know why. In World Serpent, he was just a corporate slave, but in Yaqing's writing, he suddenly became the boss.
He didn't think he was better than Mei and the others; perhaps he should say he was far inferior.
Kevin sat on the throne, and Gray Serpent respectfully presented the Judgement of Shamash with both hands.
Kevin grasped the hilt of the Judgement of Shamash sword, which instantly burst into flames. His gaze lingered, and he spoke softly, "Old friend, we meet again."
"From now on... fight alongside me as before." Kevin raised the Judgement of Shamash in his hand, as if bringing a ray of light to the dark abyss. It was the flaming sword that guarded Eden and burned the heavenly fire of Sodom.
The film ended with the three figures— the Gray Serpent, the Raven, and the Jackal— standing in their positions.
"So cool! When will I be able to control the Judgement of Shamash?!"
Kiana stared intently at the greatsword burning with flames on the screen. She had originally thought that Ziegfried would pass the Judgement of Shamash to her in the story, but she never expected that Kevin would snatch it away.
The problem is, once it's stolen, it's stolen. Even if Kiana wanted to say something, there was nothing she could do, since the other party was the first owner of the Judgement of Shamash.
"It's so long, this movie must be five hours long." Theresa patted her bulging belly, which was filled with bitter melon juice.
"Thank you, Yaqing."
"Himeko, why are you thanking that bastard?" Theresa said irritably.
"Thank you for leaving us with a happy ending."
"..."
The movie credits started rolling, and besides the acknowledgments for each film, what was even more intriguing was the screenwriter's position.
Screenplay by: Yaqing Schariac.
"It really is about himself." Kevin shook his head.
"While there are some thorns in this film, they don't harm the main characters, nor will they prompt radical fans to send him razor blades." Mobius sneered, "This film might be his next one, though. Why wouldn't he do something that's entirely beneficial?"
"Oh, right." Kevin suddenly realized, "Wait, if he puts someone else's name on the credits for the next movie, does that mean..."
As if echoing Kevin's words, the movie credits finished rolling, revealing a post-credits scene about the next film.
"Finally, you gave in."
It was a cyberpunk-style city, the streets were deserted, and Kiana knelt helplessly on the ground in front of the corpses of Honkai Beasts.
"I... I will never let you..."
Kiana's voice was weak and sorrowful as she firmly gripped the pistol beside her, loaded it, and pressed it against her chin.
The camera then shifts to Kiana's perspective, where a familiar figure reappears amidst the distant flames, accompanied by the sound of shattering glass with each step she takes.
The camera finally lingers on the reflection in Kiana's azure eyes.
Those eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
Kiana, what are you waiting for?
"That's...?!"
Chapter 191 The Far East Branch Schicksal is preparing to enter the game market.
"That's... Himeko!"
When Himeko appeared again, the audience was overjoyed and surprised.
Every time Kiana recalls the plot of the Final Lesson, she feels an urge to cry, especially the line "Live on..." Kiana, even now, doesn't dare to watch it again.
Even though it's just an anime model, the impact it had on Kiana was no less than that of reality.
"Kiana..." Mei was more focused on the image of Kiana pointing a gun at herself. She couldn't imagine that Kiana, such an optimistic person, would actually break down to the point of wanting to commit suicide.
Kiana noticed Mei's expression, put her arm around her shoulder, and comforted her, "Hey! Mei, don't worry, Himeko's here, she definitely won't just watch me die, right?"
"Mm!" Mei nodded.
"Although I don't have the abilities in the movies, I think..." Himeko put her arms around the two girls' necks and smiled, "No teacher would stand by and watch their student make the wrong choice."
"That's right, Kiana, you'd better not have any mental problems." Bronya led Seele by the hand to the group.
"I wouldn't! You idiot Bronya!"
Kiana was dissatisfied.
After the movie ended in Central Europe, Yaqing, who had planned to go straight back to her residence, was forcibly pulled away by Cecilia and taken to the mansion where the three Kaslana sisters had grown up.
"Wow, this house is huge!" Li Sushang exclaimed in amazement upon visiting such a mansion for the first time.
"Hey, hasn't Sushang been here?" Durandal asked subconsciously.
"No, there are very few high-rise villas like this in my hometown of Shenzhou." Li Sushang shook her head.
"What kind of houses does Changchang live in?" Susannah asked curiously.
"The houses I live in are all very old. In the language of Shenzhou, I think they are called..." Li Sushang thought hard for a moment before clapping her hands with her fist, "Oh right, they are called courtyard houses. Many people live together, but they are not as big Durandal's house."
Hearing this in the kitchen, Yaqing immediately felt the urge to complain. He had heard Fu Hua mention Li Sushang before and knew a little about her background, especially her courtyard house, which was enough to buy these three mansions.
Yaqing helplessly chopped vegetables, turned on the stove, and tossed the wok, her movements very skilled.
Cecilia stood to the side, diligently taking notes in her small notebook.
Ziegfried was kicked out of the kitchen, and no one named Kaslana was allowed to set foot in the kitchen.
"Sister, did you really call me over to celebrate?" Yaqing asked, garnishing a dish with a hint of helplessness.
"Really!" Cecilia said shyly, scratching her head just like Kiana. "I just wanted you to teach me while you were at it~"
"Sister, I've been teaching you for so many years."
Even if Yaqing prepared a full Manchu Han Imperial Feast, Cecilia would be grateful if she could remember the steps for just two dishes.
After an hour of cooking, Chef Ya finally...
Yaqing cooked a few home-style dishes, which she secretly learned by watching Kalpas.
In the Golden Courtyard, everyone comes from different countries. In order to cater to everyone's tastes, Kalpas makes different dishes every day. Yesterday they might have eaten Western food, and today they might have eaten Shenzhou food.
Yaqing also secretly learned a lot.
"Little brother, this is delicious, this is delicious!"
"I never expected that Brother Yaqing would have such a talent for cooking."
