"Heaven is dead, Yellow Heaven shall stand!"

In the pitch-black, quiet room, a young man's shout echoed.

Suddenly, a light illuminated the center of the room. What was even more astonishing was that this light was constantly flashing, alternating between green and blue, until finally, specks of purple light settled on the screen.

You could see a white-haired girl wearing somewhat Western-style swordsman attire. Below her, five large characters read: Valkyrie Ranger.

"Damn it all! Another guaranteed drop?! This isn't science! And it's not superstition either!"

Seeing the Ranger on the screen, a dark shadow next to the light cried out and lunged forward. "My 280! Why am I such an unlucky player! Didn't I even burn incense and bathe..."

The dark shadow momentarily recalled the terror of being ruled by Mihoyo...

With a "snap," the dark shadow flipped on the room's light.

Only then did the dark shadow reveal its form.

Twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with an above-average appearance. His face was reasonably angular, though it looked like it hadn't been groomed in a while, with stubble on his chin. He was wearing pajamas, clearly just having woken up.

"I'm telling you! Even if I die of frustration today, Xu Yanwu will never touch Honkai Impact 3rd again! I'd rather jump off the Hyperion than grind Abyss again!"

Xu Yanwu pointed at his phone and shouted angrily, completely oblivious to how nonsensical his lines were.

More than ten minutes later, when Xu Yanwu came out of the kitchen with his instant noodles, he couldn't help but swallow as he looked at the still-lit phone screen.

"I... I don't want to play Honkai Impact 3rd... I just wanted to wait for my noodles to steep and maybe read some Honkai Impact 3rd comics..."

As Xu Yanwu spoke, he slowly extended his sinful right hand towards the phone that had witnessed his journey as an unlucky great chieftain.

The moment Xu Yanwu's finger touched the phone screen, he froze stiffly on the spot.

The instant noodles he was holding steady scattered all over the floor due to his stiffness, and the rich scent of pickled cabbage immediately filled the air.

"May all beings in this world protect you..."

Xu Yanwu seemed to hear a voice, but he couldn't be bothered to pay attention, nor could he. He... fainted.

"Go to hell..."

In the sky, a woman floated.

Her battle dress, constructed from white and purple, was beautiful and majestic. Her light-gold eyes held not a trace of human emotion. The halo above her head and the wings spread behind her made mortals feel an urge to worship her.

She looked down upon a devastated ruin and the people within it.

A purple-haired Asian girl, a woman with bright red hair wielding a greatsword, a silver-haired loli nun holding a cross even larger than herself, a girl with twin tails of light gray hair that looked like drills due to her curls, holding a doll, and the somewhat delicate blue-haired girl beside her.

The gaze of the woman in the sky... was as if a god was looking down upon humanity.

And the tense atmosphere between them suggested that a battle was about to break out.

Well... the battle really would have broken out if that blue light portal in mid-air hadn't suddenly appeared between them...

"Oh my god! Where is this?"

A man's voice suddenly appeared in the area.

After appearing for a few seconds, the blue light portal spat out a person with a "poof" and sent them falling directly from a height of tens of meters.

"Aaaaaahhhhhh—" "Splat."

"Ugh..."

The gruesome sight made the girls in the ruins unable to bear watching, Even though it wasn't the first time they had seen such a scene.

[Xu Renshuang: Very good, the protagonist dies right at the start. The book is concluded. Congratulations.]

[Xu Yanwu: Son of a bitch! Why did I die at the start! You didn't say this when we signed the contract...]

"A suddenly appearing... man?"

The girls were slightly surprised. After all, men were quite rare in this world.

As for the woman in the sky, her pupils involuntarily contracted upon seeing Xu Yanwu fall to his death.

From the pulp on the ground, she sensed a threat?

"Ah... it hurts..."

Xu Yanwu's pained groan came from the bloody mess, and his mangled body began to writhe, trying to reassemble.

"What kind of monster is this now?"

Clearly, Xu Yanwu, writhing like a slime, was mistaken for a newly appeared monster by the girls...

Of course, no monster could compare to the one floating in the sky... the Herrscher of the End.

"Where... where is this?"

Xu Yanwu's body finally finished reconstructing, but his pajamas were now tattered, barely covering his lower body.

Struggling to get up from the ground, Xu Yanwu looked at his body, bewildered. Had he just... resurrected? Or was he immortal?

Looking up at the floating Herrscher of the End, and then at the group of beautiful girls standing behind him, Xu Yanwu's body trembled.

"What the f***? Did I transmigrate?"

"No way, how did I transmigrate without doing anything? I should've at least been hit by a car or something."

"Transmigrating while making instant noodles? Wouldn't that just nail me to the cross of shame for transmigrators?"

Although Xu Yanwu said this, the more he observed, the more his heart pounded. How could this scene look so familiar...

It's like... he had seen this scene on his phone before...

That white-haired girl floating in the sky wearing a skirt... Isn't that Herrscher Kiana (Herrscher Kiana, abbreviated as Herrscher Kiana)??!

Wow, I see it! Blue and white stripes! So lewd, so lewd!

Cough... Now is not the time to be looking at blue and white stripes...

After Xu Yanwu reacted, he realized that the place he was in... seemed very dangerous?

Didn't Herrscher Kiana appear at the end of Honkai Gakuen 2?! So the world was about to be ended by Herrscher Kiana??

No way??? Even if you wanted me to transmigrate to save the world, you should at least give me some time to adjust, right?

What's the situation, logging in and immediately facing the world's main boss, who's about to destroy the world?

Although Xu Yanwu's mind raced, he was actually so scared he started stuttering before he could speak.

"K-K-K-K-K-K-K-K-K-K-Kiana? Herrscher of the End?!"

The response to Xu Yanwu was a giant spear, constantly gathering and solidifying in the Herrscher of the End's hand.
