Let's Meet Again in the Not-Too-Distant Future

Mei finally figured out the timeline.

The content of the first week's web series is actually from the last week.

The future Captain sowed the seeds of karma for the past Captain, and when the past Captain becomes the future Captain, he must repay that karma.

I witnessed the Captain using Xiao Te to travel through time once again.

The viewers in the live stream had even more mixed feelings.

They didn't know how many life-or-death situations the Captain would face, but they knew that the Captain would definitely save Guān Xīng.

Captain once again found himself traveling to the middle of a date.

Are you satisfied now?

I heard a familiar voice from the Guān Xīng.

The Captain roared inwardly.

Satisfied? Are you kidding me?!

Why did it still end like this?!

Why is it still impossible to stop all of this?!

The Captain stared blankly at Guān Xīng, his eyes inexplicably stinging. He subconsciously tightened his grip on Guān Xīng's arm, only letting go when Guān Xīng cried out in pain.

He still remembers that Guān Xīng lay in a pool of blood, unable to hear his own voice, only breathing heavily, urging him to hurry up again and again. He clearly saw blood gushing out, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop it.

Guān Xīng keenly sensed that something was wrong with the Captain and gently comforted Captain, finally stabilizing his emotions as Captain was about to collapse. Even after the Captain said that he had experienced this many times before, she still chose to believe him without hesitation.

This time, the Captain did not choose to separate from Guān Xīng. After dealing with the Gray Serpent disguised as Shadow Guard, Rita arrived in time and prepared a carriage.

While one of the people Guān Xīng was changing his blood-stained clothes inside the carriage, the horse pulling the carriage was suddenly startled by the explosion and, out of the coachman's control, charged out like a madman.

Without hesitation, the Captain and Rita chased after the carriage, only to be blocked by fleeing people. Rita continued the chase, stepping on the rooftops, while the Captain spotted a familiar dark figure in the firelight.

Rita cleaved it in two with a single stroke.

When the two reached the outskirts of the city, the coachman was no longer breathing, and the carriage was empty. They continued their search for the Guān Xīng.

Fireworks lit up the sky above Huangyue City, illuminating the dark bamboo forest. In that brief moment, the Captain witnessed a scene he never wanted to see again.

Fireworks seemed to glitter in the eyes of the Guān Xīng, but her eyes had lost their light. Lifeless, she leaned against the stone, silently gazing in the direction of Huangyue City.

A woman's humming voice rose at this moment, bringing with it boundless sorrow.

"Guān Xīng... Sir?"

The Captain deceived himself, unwilling to believe that the corpse before him was Guān Xīng.

Her body was ice-cold, and there was no light in her pupils.

"Mr. Guān Xīng... Guān Xīng!!"

The world seemed to stand still at that moment, and the Captain's blood seemed to freeze.

"No... this is impossible... impossible!!"

The endless darkness swallowed the Captain. There was no light, no path, and no echo. He didn't know how to stand up, or what he could do even if he did.

He stumbled forward, but no matter how far he went, he remained trapped, unable to reach that future.

However, he cannot stop there.

Like a machine, the Captain began the cycle once more.

When that female voice began to hum, even the most resilient audience members couldn't help but shed tears.

That feeling of powerlessness spread throughout my body.

It seemed that no matter what the Captain did, he couldn't save it.

What followed was an even more heart-wrenching scene.

Accompanied by the Captain's inner monologue, the camera flashes back to various scenes of Guān Xīng's death, no matter how hard the Captain tries or how many times he reincarnates. Guān Xīng will always die.

It's not a silhouette, but a real scene.

Yaqing had Patrick draw the lifelike images frame by frame.

The audience can better understand the Captain's helplessness.

Are there other onlookers in this game?

When they see this, will they also feel numb?

I can only walk step by step toward the end, while they might be able to see it at a glance.

I don't know where this story will end... or, does it have no ending at all?

If there were bystanders, how would they judge my actions so far?

"This person is incredibly stupid."

"Why can't you even do something this simple?"

"If it were me..."

"Why didn't he just do that back then?"

"Why can't you save everyone?"

Ah... that's what they'll definitely say, right?

That's right, they're absolutely right. Only now do I realize that even if you call me the "assassin" who "can definitely do it," right now I'm just an ordinary Captain...

The "Assassin" you speak of is not me... Mr. Guān Xīng.

Like a fleeting glance before death, everything that happened with the Guān Xīng flashed through the Captain's mind.

Every word the Captain spoke touched the hearts of the audience, and even the live stream chat disappeared, falling into an unusual silence.

Elysia was already sobbing uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face.

Sakura pulled out tissues for Elysia while pulling out tissues for herself.

Mei's eyes also reddened.

This strike is indiscriminate, regardless of friend or foe.

Whether you're a fan of Honkai 3rd or a casual viewer who wants to pass the Honkai by not wanting to sever ties with the series, everyone felt deeply moved by this tragedy.

The Captain Guān Xīng's repeated deaths and reincarnations, a cycle of despair and pain, countless cycles of helplessness, yet none of it stopped the Captain's efforts to save the star.

The Captain's inner monologue was extremely impactful for the audience.

They could almost feel that the Captain was speaking to them.

"Captain... you've done very well..."

Elysia's voice choked with emotion.

Everything the Captain did and sacrificed made everyone feel ashamed in his presence, and they asked themselves if they could have persevered like the Captain if they were in such a situation.

They're probably already in the cycle of reincarnation, and their emotions have collapsed.

That was a brutal cut.

Even Yaqing himself almost didn't make it through, and after he survived, he decided to make sure that even more people couldn't survive.

It's less about Captain and Guān Xīng and more about the audience, as if it's breaking through the dimensional barrier, creating an indescribable sense of immersion.

Especially for Otto and Kallen.

When Amber arrived to deliver food to the two useless people who never cooked, she rang the doorbell for a long time but no one answered, so she simply took out her key and went into the villa herself.

What she witnessed was even more horrifying.

President Otto, who had everything under control, rolled his eyes, his hands trembled, and his chest heaved with rage.

Not far away, the death of the Guān Xīng was being continuously flashed on the projected wall.

Even though Kallen was heartbroken, she was more worried about Otto.

They kept pinching Otto's philtrum.

However, the position of that person's philtrum was a bit strange.

Amber was a little confused. Otto was almost passing out, so why was Kallen so insistent on pinching Otto's nose?

"Amber, you've finally arrived!"

When Kallen saw Amber, it was like seeing a savior.

"Otto and I were watching a web series when Otto suddenly started convulsing. I don't know what happened."

Kallen excitedly told Amber what had just happened.

A glance at the projection screen revealed everything about Amber.

He was a typical granddaughter-obsessed man and was traumatized when he saw his granddaughter die.

Amber calmly placed the prepared food on the table before taking out the pacemaker provided in the villa and pressing it against Otto's chest.

An electric current coursed through his body.

Otto finally caught his breath.

"Otto, you just scared me to death."

When she saw Otto sit up, Kallen immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Otto remained silent.

His eyes were fixed on the projection screen.

Otto recognized the model of Guān Xīng as his granddaughter, just like Theresa's.

Sometimes he still thinks how wonderful it would be to have a granddaughter as sensible as Guān Xīng.

Seeing the repeated deaths of those Guān Xīng made him completely unable to sit still.

The flashback is very fast.

Hundreds of images flashed back within a dozen seconds.

Those were images of people dying Guān Xīng.

It's said that they made all the employees in the original art and modeling department draw emo.

"I want to see! I want to keep watching until the Captain saves Guān Xīng!"

Amber rolled her eyes.

Who asked you?

"Aunt Kallen, let's go eat."

Kallen scratched her head awkwardly.

"Amber, I'll not eat for now. I plan to finish watching first."

Amber shrugged helplessly, inwardly complaining.

A couple addicted to the internet.

Chapter 380 Let's meet in the not-too-distant future

Theresa, sitting in her office at the St. Freya Academy, didn't know how to express her helplessness. She was happily watching a web series when she suddenly saw herself being killed multiple times.

This is absolutely torture.

Theresa, emanating a dark aura, made Himeko cautiously ask, "Theresa, are you... are you alright?"

Theresa remained silent.

"Theresa, those are all fake, and besides, that's Guān Xīng, isn't it?"

Himeko was somewhat worried when she saw that Theresa didn't respond.

Has this child been driven mad by the knife?
