Mei Raiden Really Has the Protagonist Script

"Hey, Kiana, what kind of strange, unscientific creature is this?" Yu Luo shouted as he frantically fled. "Shouldn't this thing belong in Ultraman or Godzilla's universe?!"

"I don't know either!" Kiana turned and fired a shot at the giant monster. The orange beam from her electromagnetic cannon easily pierced the massive creature's body, but the penetrating wound was like a drop in the ocean for its size, having no effect whatsoever.

"Hey, where's your Quantum Butterfly transformation?" Kiana asked impatiently, looking at Yu Luo, who had grabbed her shoulder as his stamina was about to run out. "Hurry up and transform to take this guy down!"

"I don't know where this guy's weak point is!" Yu Luo declared shamelessly, showing no guilt for slacking off. "Besides, who knows how many more of these things are out there? What if there's an even stronger one?!"

"Tsk!" Kiana clicked her tongue in annoyance, grabbed Yu Luo's hand, and pulled him along, afraid he'd fall behind. They continued to dodge the large orbs and debris flying at them from behind.

"According to Bronya's database, this type of monster is a Honkai Beast born in areas with concentrated Honkai Energy. This one, after scanning, belongs to..." Bronya's voice echoed from above them.

"Bronya!" Yu Luo looked up in surprise. Bronya leaped down from the rooftop, the strong wind lifting her skirt to reveal white safety shorts. Her expression was blank as her eyes locked onto the Ballista-class Honkai Beast.

"Target locked!"

"Heavy-Oni Rabbit 19C!"

The robot that had previously fought Yu Luo appeared behind Bronya. Its massive cannon gathered firelight, aiming at the Honkai Beast's head, which was the size of a truck.

"Fire!" A pillar of fire erupted from above the Ballista-class Honkai Beast's head. The Heavy-Oni Rabbit 19C's cannon roared as it fired. The Cannon of Equality unleashed its fury, and the pillar of fire, after piercing the Honkai Beast's massive head, continued onward, disappearing into the ground without resistance.

"Boom!" Another deafening explosion shook the street, followed by a shockwave that dispersed the dust. The scattered debris flew like bullets, pinging against the surrounding buildings. Bronya took cover behind a semi-virtual shield projected by the Heavy-Oni Rabbit 19C, while Yu Luo and the other two had already ducked into a shop on the street the moment Bronya fired.

Only after the shockwave gradually subsided did the three of them emerge from the shop, still shaken. Bronya stood before the headless, lifeless Ballista-class Honkai Beast. The road below was cracked, and the spot where the beast lay was a crater more than two meters deep.

"Bronya, you showed up just in time!" Mei Raiden put an arm around Bronya's shoulders and praised her. Yu Luo also patted Bronya's head, "Well done, Bronya!"

As he spoke, his gaze fell upon a suspicious plush toy clutched in Bronya's arms. It resembled a rabbit, with a fierce expression, a garish yellow body, and was unpleasant in every way. He hadn't seen the toy yesterday.

"Bronya, this is..." Yu Luo pointed at the plush toy in Bronya's arms, asking curiously. Bronya, squinting as she enjoyed Yu Luo's head-patting, raised the toy in her arms and said emotionlessly:

"This is a limited edition Horm plush. Bronya searched many stores to find it."

Is she showing off? Yu Luo blinked in surprise. Kiana, feeling neglected, pointed at Bronya and complained unreasonably, "What's so great about it? Suddenly appearing and attacking randomly, and you almost hit me!"

"You useless little brat!"

"Kiana's safety priority: 0. System determined her life is not worth caring about," Bronya said blankly, hugging the Horm plush.

"Do you want to start a war?!" Kiana angrily rolled up her sleeves, flexing her muscles like an idiot. Bronya dismissively stated without emotion:

"Bronya's probability of winning is confirmed at 99.9999999%."

"Then mine is 100%!"

Watching the two of them start arguing again, Yu Luo couldn't help but rub his forehead. Mei Raiden, standing nearby, was deep in thought:

Why did such monsters appear? Is the Honkai concentration still increasing? How long until these monsters appear in swarms?

"Tired?" Yu Luo asked Mei, noticing her spacing out. Mei shook her head, a hint of worry in her voice, "I just don't know if we can successfully escape Changkong City. If we leave, I don't know if everyone will still be together like this."

"Don't overthink it," Yu Luo said softly, his expression softening. "I'll help you and Kiana find your father, and I'll help Bronya completely regain her human emotions!"

Seeing Mei about to say something else, Yu Luo quickly interrupted, "Let's find a place to rest before we continue traveling. We've been running all morning, I'm exhausted."

Yu Luo then ruthlessly inserted himself into Bronya and Kiana's battlefield, flicking Kiana's smooth forehead hard and forcibly pulling their hands to prevent them from arguing further. "Let's go, let's find a place to rest!"

"Don't drag me, I can walk myself!"

"Bronya detected a Horm restaurant ahead. Recommending current request!"

After a chaotic lunch, Bronya seemed sleepy and curled up on Mei Raiden's lap, falling asleep. Mei Raiden gently stroked Bronya's sleeping face and smiled, "She's still taking naps, what a child."

"She does look about 14, after all," Yu Luo said, propping his chin on his hands and leaning against the wall, gazing out the window.

"Mei-senpai, you just like Bronya!" Kiana said sourly. Mei Raiden gently patted Kiana's head, "I do like Bronya, but I like Kiana too."

Classic playboy statement, Yu Luo thought to himself. If Mei were a guy, Kiana would probably have slapped him by now.

"Wake up, she's got the Protagonist Script," the System mercilessly shattered Yu Luo's fantasy.

"What do you mean?"

"Born into a prominent family, father framed, mother died early, mysterious origins, mastery of swordsmanship, a being of immense power within, kind personality. Is that not enough of a Protagonist Script?" the System summarized point by point. After listening, Yu Luo was completely convinced.

"Then it seems I've got the Protagonist's Sidekick script."

While Yu Luo and the System were chatting, Mei Raiden, completely unaware, looked at Yu Luo and said, "Thank you."

"Huh?" Yu Luo was stunned by Mei's sudden words, his face filled with confusion. He frantically asked the System in his mind, I'm being actively pursued, what do I do, what do I do, online and waiting, urgently!

"Don't rush, just lie down and wait for death!"

Mei Raiden, oblivious to Yu Luo's internal monologue, continued, "That night, I actually wanted to jump off the building to commit suicide, so that I wouldn't be able to control my body anymore."

Yu Luo immediately understood Mei was referring to the night he found her. He couldn't help but interject, "No wonder you were covered in so much dust and blood that day."

"Yes, my suicide attempt was unsuccessful," Mei said with a wry smile. Kiana listened quietly beside them. "So, Teacher Yu Luo, you extended a helping hand to me when I was in darkness. I'm truly grateful."

"You're the one who let me meet Kiana and Bronya, gave me so many good friends, and even gave me a clue about my father. I'm truly very grateful."

"Then you must hold onto your will and don't let the entity inside take over," Yu Luo said to Mei with a smile. Mei smiled and nodded, opening her mouth as if to say something more. Yu Luo's gaze passed through the window behind Mei and saw a massive blade, reflecting the sunlight, descending towards the unsuspecting Mei.

"Careful!" In a moment of panic, Yu Luo's mind went blank. He reflexively lunged forward, pushing Mei away. "CRASH..." The solid concrete building was like paper in front of the giant pinkish-white blade, easily torn apart.

Splattering blood and shattered glass flew together. Yu Luo's body was flung high into the air like a rag doll, falling heavily to the ground, lifeless. Bright red blood flowed from the deep, bone-chilling, gruesome wound on Yu Luo's back, quickly pooling into a large puddle.

The sudden turn of events shattered the previously joyful and warm atmosphere. Kiana and Mei Raiden stood frozen in place. Bronya was awakened by the loud noise, rubbing her sleepy eyes in confusion.

"Teacher Yu Luo!" Kiana's shout rang out, but it was immediately drowned out by a sharper, more frantic, and more desperate howl.

"No!!!!!!!!! Ah!!!!!!!!"
