You asked for healing, but you wrote Honkai Impact 3rd?

"Rich and generous" was the perfect description of Eden.

But the fact that Eden wanted to be his "guide" genuinely shocked him.

Was he really about to latch onto such a powerful backer?

And not just that—he might become a leg ornament so firmly attached that no amount of prying could ever remove it!

Never had such a magnificent start existed!

It would be a lie to say he wasn't excited.

Yet when this enormous surprise arrived, Su Nian still felt no sense of reality.

In the end, he could only utter a single word.

"Ah?"

"Contestant Su Nian, the gap between web novels and traditional art is vast. Don't agree too quickly," Otto suddenly interjected.

How could anyone write good web novels while hanging around an artist like her!

"Indeed, the experience she can pass on to you is no different from ours. Contestant Su Nian, cross-industry guidance isn't necessarily that effective."

If Eden became Su Nian's guide, she could indeed make up for his lack of operational experience.

But that was something all of them could do just as well.

Their argument was meaningless.

All eyes turned to Su Nian.

Who he ultimately joined was up to him to decide.

In truth, the conditions each of the three could offer were all top-tier.

But precisely because they were all the highest level of resource support, Su Nian had even less idea how to choose.

It felt like a fateful Asura field.

Since when did being too outstanding become a mistake?

Based on Su Nian's impression of the three in the Honkai world, it seemed that no matter who he agreed to, the other two wouldn't hold a grudge.

Even if Otto had done countless evil deeds, as long as Su Nian didn't interfere with his series of plans and efforts to revive Kallen, then he wouldn't be so petty as to want to kill someone over a rejection.

The Otto of this world should be a bit more virtuous.

So no matter which of the Triumvirate he chose, there wouldn't be a single problem.

But who to pick?

The answer had actually already been there.

No, Su Nian, don't let your little head control your big head!

He still needed to weigh the current situation further.

No matter how he chose, it would have a major impact on his future life.

Su Nian didn't want to become a thrice-betraying servant, only to later shout, "How can a true man long dwell under another's thumb!"

"..."

Not answering was already the best answer.

Eden could also understand Su Nian's current situation—he was probably feeling troubled.

That's how it was when you lacked experience.

Besides operational experience, what he was missing was skill in dealing with people; he wasn't particularly sharp.

He still hadn't reached the average level of some region in Shenzhou.

"It seems Contestant Su Nian is also a shy, adorable big boy?"

Sensing the awkward atmosphere around them, the rescue expert Ai Li immediately flashed over, easing the tension in the deadlocked Asura field.

"Mr. Su Nian, I truly admire your abilities, but please don't feel pressured because of this."

"That's all I have to say. Thank you for your insights. Please contact me later to fulfill the promise I made earlier."

With Eden's words finished, the connection conveniently cut off.

Even now, Su Nian still had no sense of reality.

He woke up from sleep and just took off? Was that even possible?

"I thought I'd just scrape by with a ranking, but my results are actually this good..."

As expected of the miHoYo universe.

Su Nian let out a long breath. He had just suffered an attack of choice paralysis.

If he had really been forced to choose on the spot, he would definitely have panicked like crazy.

He still knew far too little about this world. The two organizations, Schicksal and Anti-Entropy, and their corresponding personnel all matched up.

So... is Eden now the landlady of the Golden Courtyard, or a member of the Moth of the Fire?

Speaking of which, does this world have the World Serpent? Su Nian searched her memories, but there was nothing relevant yet...

What exactly happened while he was writing, Su Nian had no way of knowing now.

Damn Schicksal technology, the anti-theft measures were way too strong.

Not only could she not see other people's livestreams, but through big data calculations, they even filtered out all competition-related content before displaying anything.

Su Nian couldn't see a thing.

The only thing she could do now was hurry up and perfect this story.

Meanwhile, in the judges' livestream room, the controller had just timely cut off the connection to spare them any awkwardness.

Under this kind of "farce,"

the livestream room was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Now, it was time to get down to business.

The livestream call was just a minor interlude, and now everything was clear in Eden's mind.

Their real task today was to grade the works.

Su Nian's work no longer needed to be read from start to finish, because they had already seen it all yesterday.

"Excellent." x3

The three of them unanimously gave the rating of excellent, with no possibility of deliberately targeting her for not agreeing to anyone.

Not because Su Nian only deserved excellent.

But because excellent was the highest rating possible.

This also meant Su Nian had successfully earned the privilege of using the black technology provided by the show.

Finally, as this segment ended, the scores were sent to the corresponding contestants.

She passed!

The way they had acted earlier had already hinted at Su Nian's results.

It was incredibly good.

But now that the results were actually announced, Su Nian finally felt it for real.

Great, then his plan wouldn't have any issues.

He would be able to extract the animated short from his memories using Mind Imaging Technology.

But... just those alone probably weren't enough.

An animated short needed not only production but also music and voice acting.

MiHoYo's art team had fully showcased their strengths in the animated shorts.

And miHoYo's music was top-tier as well—how many game soundtracks had gone viral, used as background music by state media and even official accounts?

Add in the divine voice acting from Bao Bao.

When all these came together, combined with the buildup from the previous plot—

Perfect! There was no other word for it but perfect.

Players even joked back then that they had to wait for one thing in their lifetime.

What was that?

The Honkai series movie!

Rumor had it that miHoYo was originally registered as an animation company.

Restore the glory of animation, ride the planners to work!

If conditions allowed, it was worth a try.

But thinking about that now was looking too far ahead.

First, write the plot of Eternal Paradise.

Chapter 64, Eternal Paradise, Start! (4k)

Eternal Paradise, start!

Su Nian had just received positive feedback on her results, and her motivation was running high.

She only now realized how popular the plot of The Past's Paradise was.

The surging excitement inside her could no longer be contained—she wanted to swell up like Sirin...

But the competition wasn't over yet; this was only the second day.

Now wasn't the time to let her guard down.

The feeling of swelling up was great, but everyone had seen what happened to Sirin.

She had to stay steady as an old dog, silently outworking everyone else!

The exhaustion from yesterday's all-nighter hadn't eased at all, leaving him a salted fish who didn't want to do a single thing.

But the judges' pep talk arrived quickly, and he was fired up!

Being held in such high regard by them already proved the excellence and popularity of this work.

As expected of you, The Past's Paradise—the peak masterpiece of Honkai Impact 3rd's entire writing team.

The subsequent content of The Past's Paradise, Eternal Paradise, was the cream of the crop.

The first half showcased some existing events and content that had occurred among the Flame-Chasers—fragments of the Previous Civilization's story.

The second half, on the other hand, applied their already established characterizations to new plotlines.

It was yet another effort to make the Flame-Chasers' personas even more well-rounded.

As few people know, establishing a character and making them well-rounded are two completely different things.

For someone experienced, setting up a distinctive character can be done through contrasts and any special traits—using those methods is enough.

But making a character well-rounded? That's incredibly difficult.

On top of an established characterization, you have to add, choose, and cut.

This means showcasing multiple facets of a person.

Humans are complex creatures, like a die with an unknown number of faces.

Establishing a character is about adding faces; making a character well-rounded is about turning all those faces into curves, eventually shaping them into an impeccable "sphere."

At that point, though the person exists only on paper, they feel so vividly alive.

At the same time, they become harder to control—any inconsistency is out of character.

But the Flame-Chasers' characterizations stayed on point throughout.

From this, you can see just how terrifying the writing team is.
