Chapter 227
They said they would have to wait until the next day.
But at night, after her mother fell asleep, Kiana quietly got out of bed and left the room.
Although Seele has the coordinates to reach the Land of the End.
I also Kiana to take her with me when we went to the Land of the End, so she could slap the Cocoon of the End twice.
But!
Such an important matter definitely requires careful consideration.
Therefore.
Kiana did not call her.
They directly seized the beacon of the Cocoon of the End from the future convergence Worldline.
Then he cleared space and left.
In that instant.
Channel established, link locked.
The wondrous sights brought about by the dimensional ascension seemed to visibly blend together all the elements that exist and do not exist in reality, and unleash them all before one's eyes.
Looking around.
It was a dazzling display of colors and shimmering brilliance.
The indescribable, terrifying light pollution seemed to be engulfing the entire brain.
Countless pieces of information, useful and useless, flooded into my head all at once.
Any ordinary existence can be destroyed in an instant.
If we were to use Kiana as an analogy...
This is tantamount to sending a person, without any preparation, sinking from the surface of the sea to the bottom of the ocean in less than a second.
They might die before even reaching their destination.
The difference is that dying from being swept away by distorted and disordered dimensions means being directly annihilated into nothingness, which may be more tragic, but also more painless.
To put it simply...
The Cocoon of the End parasitizes the tip of the Imaginary Tree.
The Land of the End is naturally a small space within the Imaginary Tree.
Therefore, traveling from the Main World to the Land of the End is essentially equivalent to briefly ascending the Imaginary Tree.
It should be noted that the infinite Imaginary Space of the Imaginary Tree are an environment even harsher than outer space.
The leaves and branches are intertwined with the Sea of Quantum, penetrating everywhere.
Therefore, it can be like a purgatory with unimaginable water pressure, making people hesitate to go there.
A person who lacks adaptability is like a fish unable to adapt to a terrestrial environment.
A person without strength is like a fool who goes deep into the Lop Nur desert without caring about anything or making any preparations.
The Imaginary Tree might be slightly better, since it is ordered.
But the Sea of Quantum is constantly changing, with various concepts, chaotic and distorted, and different regions constantly shifting, like the tides and waves.
Don't be fooled by how miserable World Bubble looks.
Without the protection of the World Bubble, being directly exposed to the Sea of Quantum, one might survive if lucky, but perish if unlucky.
"So in the Original Work, Seele was able to survive in the Sea of Quantum not only because of her superb quantum adaptability, but also because Kevin took care of her."
Kiana seemed lost in thought.
"Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense that they haven't encountered a single monster all these years, given their relatively weak strength..."
Even if the Sea of Quantum is distorted.
Even at seemingly close distances, it feels like being lost in a maze. But those ubiquitous quantum monsters certainly aren't completely clueless.
However, if we consider the countless Parallel World, there are countless Honkai Impact 3rd, but there is only one Sea of Quantum and Imaginary Space.
Perhaps right now, in the Sea of Quantum, countless Seele are waiting for their Sister Bronya.
"If I were to bring one back... Bronya over there might cry, right?"
All right.
Kiana can indeed do it.
But she wasn't that bored.
Strictly speaking...
When traversing the passageway, time can no longer be measured.
It felt like millions of years had passed.
It also seems like a fleeting moment.
When Kiana regained her senses, she found herself in a sea of stars.
This is not an illusion.
Instead, it is a real, magnificent, endless starry sky transformed into shimmering water, rippling beneath your feet, with a tactile sensation that is both real and illusory.
And look up.
It seems as if the sky is round and the earth is square.
The endless stars, like a painting, create light pollution, resembling a still scroll.
This place is very similar to the place that Kiana and her two companions eventually arrived at in the Original Work.
However, in reality, it's even more fantastical.
Kiana has consciously transformed into her own Finality form.
Three rings around the back of the head.
However, there are some cracks and gaps in the upper part.
It's more realistic now.
It is also more sacred.
She wore a gorgeous gown, white with subtle purple hues, lace trim that resembled a starry sky, and vibrant purple tassels.
Behind her ears, on her waist, and on her back, three white wings accentuated her fair and smooth back, which was clean and smooth, like a piece of fine jade.
In addition, Kiana's figure has gradually developed into a perfect one.
She was truly like a princess showered with love, graceful and radiant.
When she looked closely, she could see right in front of her a giant cocoon, like a mirage, breathing and pulsating as if it were alive.
That is the Cocoon of the End.
Kiana understood.
Although it looks like trying to catch the moon's reflection in the water.
But she was definitely there.
We just need to walk a little further to get closer.
Kiana walked, but it seemed as if she was walking, as if she were shrinking the distance between people.
Flashing, moving forward.
There was no concept of distance here, but she quickly arrived in front of the Cocoon of the End.
"——"
The Cocoon of the End was very happy, as if it had been looking forward to it for a long time, and couldn't wait to communicate with Kiana.
The purple shimmering patterns on her body resembled eyes, or perhaps a mural.
As the one destined for the Finality, Kiana is naturally able to connect to the Cocoon of the End.
Not to mention now, with them so close together.
Her mood couldn't help but brighten a little.
Step forward.
Extend it out.
Then gently touch the Cocoon of the End.
"—" The Cocoon of the End was even happier.
Kiana spoke softly, as if coaxing a child.
"Oh, I see... Okay, I understand~ Sorry I'm late..."
This moment.
There's no need for such a rudimentary form of communication as verbal dialogue.
It was only for the instant that Kiana placed her little hand on it.
She knew everything, from beginning to end, including the intentions of the Cocoon of the End...
Turn out to be.
As someone who has transmigrated and been reborn, Kiana's soul naturally possesses some unique characteristics.
Therefore, the Cocoon of the End took notice of her.
It's true that she was destined to become the Finality.
It has nothing to do with appearance.
Even if she doesn't look like Kiana, she will still be the Finality.
Even in all the worlds projected by the Cocoon of the End, she is the most important one.
In other Honkai Impact 3rd worlds, there are similar Finality appearances like Kiana's. The Cocoon of the End she obtained in the original work is merely a projection of the real cocoon.
And now!
The cocoon concealed its entirety, revealing itself completely to Kiana.
This means that in the countless parallel universes of Honkai Impact 3rd on the Imaginary Tree, there will be no more Cocoon of the End.
Whether in the past, the future, or the present, there will be a true Honkai, and an existence that will replace the cocoon.
Or rather, this is actually the situation that should have been.
"Isn't that terrible?" Kiana couldn't hold back any longer.
Have I betrayed countless sisters from all over the world?
What a terrible thing!
PS1: Third update delivered. More tomorrow, keep it up!
220. The Cocoon of the End, relax, I'm coming in!
"——"
The Cocoon of the End sensed Kiana's thoughts immediately.
She shook slightly and hurriedly explained.
Kiana was surprised and somewhat taken aback.
"If that's the case... then that's true! Then there's no problem."
"—" The Cocoon of the End swayed.
She told me everything.
There was nothing to hide.
"I understand... Mm!" Kiana nodded, even more understanding than before.
Therefore, according to the theory of the Cocoon of the End.
