Chapter 122
Aponia remained calm, soothing Eden.
"..." Please be quiet, Miss Eden. The Young Lady's consciousness is only temporarily absent; her body has instinctively entered a state of stagnation, making her invincible, in order to protect herself.
Eden was still puzzled.
"..." Aponia! This... she's not even breathing anymore, and you're saying she's protecting herself?
This person is dead, right...? Wait, they're temporarily unconscious. This! Isn't this a huge problem too?!
She watched as Aponia kept mouthing words to her.
I understood. But I was even more panicked.
She didn't know if she had fallen for Kiana.
However, she did not particularly resist the fact that she would marry Kiana in the future.
Kiana suddenly passed away. She was supposed to take a nap, and things should have gone as usual...
Why did it turn out like this?!
She didn't even mention the subtle feelings that had been brewing within her during their daily interactions.
Take Kiana herself for example.
She's dead, not breathing, and unconscious—it means the same thing!
Round it off.
The countdown to the end of the world Finality.
The whole world will perish together!
This is so abrupt!
"..." How can you remain so calm?
Aponia!
Eden was always calm and composed.
But this time... she really couldn't do it.
My mind is a complete mess.
All the strength in my body felt like it had been drained away.
Completely! I'm at a loss!
This contrasted sharply with the completely calm Aponia.
PS1: Third update delivered. More tomorrow, keep it up!
124. Kiana: Griseo, get out of the way! I'm logging in!
Honkai Impact 3rd World.
Sky City.
Boom!!!
The sudden and violent explosion was deafening, and a terrifying mushroom cloud swept up high in the sky, as if it were right next to you.
"——"
The night sky suddenly turned as bright as day.
The sharp sonic boom whistled through the air, and suddenly it seemed like nothing could be heard at all.
People looked up and saw only fireworks, like shooting stars, falling with a faint glimmer.
They had no idea what had just happened.
"..." It hurts, it hurts so much!
Kiana was awakened by the pain.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!
What the hell happened?!
She didn't understand.
I was just happily taking a nap while holding the beautiful Aponia...
Who the hell would use a nuclear bomb to bomb me?!
Grass!
In particular, Kiana's mind was almost completely blank.
If you're woken up before you're fully awake, you'll be grumpy when you wake up!
What's more, it felt like not only like being hit by a nuclear bomb, but also like it was detonated right in my arms!
When have I, Kiana, ever suffered such injustice?!
Feel it...
The terrifying heat from the explosion against my face felt like a sun had been ignited in an instant.
My eyes are so hard I can't open them; it's like my retina is burned out.
Her body resembled a broken doll, held together only by a few tattered threads...
Holy crap, there are actually people in real life who aren't afraid of death.
So you've come with a massive nuclear bomb and launched a full-scale attack, huh?!
"Did you really think I... this Finality was good-natured...?"
"You... all deserve to die!"
It recovered quite quickly.
Kiana barely managed to stay suspended in mid-air, covering half of her face as the Herrscher of Herrscher of Death rapidly took effect.
At the same time.
Her Herrscher armor began to appear.
A white evening gown with starry embroidery.
The deep-colored skirt seemed to unfurl wings that tore through the heavens.
A faint halo hung above his head.
In a single moment, he turned indifferent to the gods, the law of the world, and the judgment of Heaven.
Even if it's just a slender figure.
It also possesses the power to almost shake the entire world.
Terrifying, horrifying, invincible!
At the same time!
"5300HW...7800HW..."
"..."
"13800HW...19800HW...28500HW..."
"..."
Almost every device in the world capable of measuring Honkai Energy concentration is screaming wildly.
Some thresholds are insufficient.
"Bang!"
"Bang!!"
"..."
"Bang!"
Not long after.
The sudden overload caused smoke and even an explosion, injuring many people.
However, when all the instruments broke down and became unusable.
The last recorded value was 100,000 HW!
What does this mean?!
This is terrifying to think about!
Whether they knew what had happened in Sky City or knew nothing at all, they were all going crazy.
Looking at that sacred and beautiful figure high in the sky.
It was as if I had suddenly fallen into the deepest hell!
An overwhelming sense of fear descended.
Do you know something, or not? Do you have some clear information? Or are you still unsure?
It's all meaningless now.
All that remained was profound despair!
This day.
People looked up and seemed to see a pair of eyes that ignored everything, looked down on everyone as if they were all equal, and looked at the laughable ants.
People look at themselves and seem to see the threads that bind them, the threads of fate. The gods watch over everyone, enjoying the whole farce.
This absurd illusion.
Now, it seems to have become a reality.
Even without understanding anything, one could clearly sense that a great being from another dimension had descended.
It seemed to arrive unexpectedly, catching everyone off guard.
"The Finality..."
On the World Serpent's side.
Kevin felt that familiar, unforgettable aura, and his whole body involuntarily tensed up.
He could sense that the sudden Finality somewhat immature and not yet at its peak.
Even so.
He's not sure either.
He couldn't even understand why something that shouldn't have appeared at this time had just appeared out of nowhere, without any reason or warning.
What happened?
The Gray Serpent standing beside him seemed to have thought of something, and said in a low voice, "Sky City is an experimental site for our Stigmata Project."
"..." Kevin fell silent.
You mean... one of our small experiments in the Stigmata Project actually brought about the Finality?!
Meanwhile, at the Schicksal Headquarters...
Otto practically leaped onto the screen.
No, buddy. JPG!
The Fourth Herrscher has only just passed by, Fifth Herrscher hasn't even appeared yet.
Skip straight to the final level, where the Great Demon Lord is blocking the door.
Is it in this river?!
He doesn't care whether he can defeat the Honkai; he only cares about whether he can revive Kallen.
Suddenly, the Finality came...
That's outrageous!
"As expected of the World Serpent!"
