After speaking, Beichen unceremoniously controlled Kiana to knock out Kallen with a cat paw attack upon entering, then Bronya followed up with a QTE heavy punch.

With this combo, Kallen's health instantly dropped by one bar.

It felt like the battle could be over in less than a minute...

Chapter 43: Otto Declares This Game is Terrible!

As the battle reached a critical point, a green bullet comment suddenly floated across the screen!

"Wait!"

Seeing Kallen getting beaten, even though he knew it was just Kallen in the game, Otto felt a pang of discomfort.

So, he sent a bullet comment requesting a pause.

Beichen would naturally consider Bishop Otto's request. He was one of the few wealthy fans he had.

Whether he could afford to buy a house in Canghai City before retiring depended entirely on whether Otto would spend money.

So, Beichen triggered a Time Fracture with an evasion and ran far away during those few seconds.

Then he asked, "Does this viewer have something to say?"

"We should review the plot details. Why are we being asked to kill Kallen here? This must be the wrong option!"

Facing Otto's bold speculation, Beichen replied with a fake smile, "The mission prompt says so? There's nothing I can do. I can't just let her beat me to death, right? That would definitely mean failing the mission."

After speaking, Beichen continued to beat down Kallen, who had rushed up, successfully reducing the Saintess, who had drifted to a small village in the Far East, to critical health.

"How could this happen..."

Otto let out a resentful bullet comment upon seeing his beloved Kallen close to death and about to be defeated.

He never imagined that he couldn't save Kallen in reality, and now he had to watch her sacrifice herself in the game!

However, perhaps heaven had heard his plea.

Kallen, who had been on the defensive moments ago, suddenly floated gracefully into the sky and then landed in the middle of the shrine courtyard.

Immediately after... the sky suddenly changed color, and Kallen summoned Judah, which unfolded on the ground with a raise of her hand.

Seeing this thing, Beichen instantly gasped.

"Big brother, what is this? Is Kallen big sister going all out?"

As Seele's bullet comment floated across the screen, a rain of golden spears began to fall from the sky.

Golden spears materialized above Ri Duck's head and then rapidly descended.

Beichen quickly pressed the dodge button, avoiding Kallen's special skill when she was at low health.

This skill was incredibly powerful, with automatic targeting, tracking, enhanced control, and high damage, making it as outrageous as her elemental immunity.

At such a critical juncture, a green bullet comment cheering her on floated across the screen...

"Now's the time! Defeat him at all costs!"

The one sending the bullet comment was none other than Bishop Otto.

However, it was no longer necessary to guess who he was cheering for.

Beichen gritted his teeth and, during the interval before the next wave of attacks, let Herrscher of Reason rush forward and attack with all her might.

He finally succeeded in defeating Kallen!

Instantly, the livestream chat fell silent...

Everyone who would usually send congratulatory bullet comments was now speechless.

After Beichen completed the mission, a new CG appeared on the screen.

First, a pale, white void came into view. Against this paper-white background, two figures, one pink and one black, were pressed close to each other.

They weren't embracing. Sakura's long sword pierced through Kallen, impaling the Saintess who had wandered to the Far East.

As the absurd and tragic scene unfolded before everyone, the Demon in the Box's voice-over quietly began.

"Hmph hmph hmph, Kallen Kaslana is dead..."

"No one can stop me anymore."

"This girl's soul belongs to me forever!"

Following the Demon in the Box's declaration, the white screen was once again replaced by blood red.

Two lines of text slowly appeared on the screen.

[The world has faced its worst ending, but in the path of infinite possibilities, everything can still be salvaged—]

[Let's rewind time and go back to when the two first met!]

As these two lines of text disappeared, the second loop was officially cleared.

After being ejected from the loop interface, Beichen's ears were instantly filled with the system's reward notification sound.

[Detected that the player has successfully cleared the second loop. Reward: 1000 Crystals, 5 Precision Supply Cards!]

"Hahaha!"

With the reward in hand, Beichen burst out laughing.

However, he was the only one laughing in the entire stream; everyone else was silent.

None of them expected the second loop to end with Kallen being killed by Yae Sakura... and then completely controlled by the demon in the box.

Such a despairing ending was truly worse than the first loop.

So, how to put it...

It really made one feel suffocated.

"This game is absolutely terrible."

Finally, the oppressive atmosphere was broken by a green bullet comment.

The person who sent the comment was none other than Archbishop Otto...

Even for someone as deep and calculating as him, seeing the events of the second loop had completely shattered his composure.

If nothing else, the plot was too inconsistent with history!

Why would Kallen be killed by a mere pseudo-Herrscher from the Far East!

"Ah? This viewer, please don't rush. Take a closer look at the screen!"

Upon hearing the streamer's reminder, Otto hesitantly looked at the screen.

At that moment, the Hyperion's intelligent AI assistant, Ai-chan, was reminding him that the third loop could be unlocked once the Captain's level met the requirements.

The third loop? This meant... the story wasn't over yet?

Otto breathed a sigh of relief when he realized there was more to the story.

"So there's a continuation? It seems I was too hasty, but thinking about it carefully... this kind of plot design is beyond my comprehension. I think... even if I were to design it, I wouldn't design it like this."

Seeing his emotion, everyone else in the stream was bewildered, but Beichen felt like crying and laughing at the same time.

It was true, designing Yae Sakura to die a few times would probably be easy for you, but designing Kallen's death... that could be considered fabricating history.

"Alright. This viewer, the subsequent story is definitely not going in the direction you imagined, right? Is our bet settled?"

"Heh, you're lucky this time."

After Archbishop Otto sent this comment, he kept his promise and sent a reward.

[Ding! Congratulations to the streamer for receiving a 10,000 yuan reward from your Great Inventor!]

"The boss is so generous!"

Beichen almost jumped for joy after confirming the reward had arrived.

Having a rich fan was awesome; he felt like he could buy a sea-view apartment in Canghai City after streaming for a few more months!

Phew, that felt good. Next...

Beichen clicked on exorcism, then selected some exorcism missions, specifically picking those for Yae Sakura's soul fragments.

After taking on five missions, he announced to his viewers:

"I've streamed enough for today, and I need to sleep. I'll probably have time to stream after 2 PM tomorrow. If you have time, remember to come and support me."

As his voice faded, a blue bullet comment floated across the stream.

"Okay, by the way... Big brother, what are you planning to stream tomorrow?"

"Chapter 4 of the main story, the chapter where Kiana and Theresa rescue Wendy."

Beichen replied to Seele.

Chapter 44: 'Let's Save the World Together!'

After confirming the broadcast time, Beichen turned off the stream and prepared to sleep.

[Congratulations to the Host for completing the stream.]

[Based on the popularity of this stream, the Host has received 3200 Crystals as a reward!]

As the System's mission prompt sounded, he felt an unprecedented sense of peace.

If he continued streaming at this pace, he would quickly accumulate a large number of Crystals.

Then he could pull for any character he wanted, get the graduation equipment, and dominate the game.

And then, he would use Crystals to exchange for other rewards!

Qianxun Lu, 281414139

Before falling asleep, Beichen's thoughts moved, and he began browsing the System Store in his mind.

The store had many strange and exotic black technologies, and even special abilities from other worlds could be exchanged.

For example, Fusion Warrior injection fluid, prototype Key of the Void applications, and even Honkai beast controllers, all sorts of peculiar items could be redeemed.

The dazzling array of products made Beichen's eyes blur.

However, when he saw the string of zeros marking the prices of those unbelievable items, he stopped looking.

Quietly drifted off to dreamland...

Meanwhile, in the office of the Bishop of Schicksal Headquarters.

Otto leaned back in his chair, rubbing his temples. Although he had been intently watching the live broadcast for a long time, he was still surprised by the game being played within it.

He had initially thought this game would simply record recent events and turn them into game content.

Who would have imagined that even stories from a long, long time ago would be completely recorded and made into a game...

"Kallen..."

Otto slowly uttered a name that was long distant from her.

Even though so much time had passed since he lost Kallen, he could still recall her smile, her silhouette, and the words she had spoken.

"Mhm! When we grow up... you'll come and save the world with me!"

Kallen's past invitation seemed to echo in Otto's ears.

Kallen had wished to save the world since she was young, making the salvation of all life from the Honkai her purpose.

However, the world did not repay her; instead, it judged her.

Such a world could not possibly foster the strength needed to defeat the Honkai.

If humanity was not yet ready to defeat the Honkai, then even if Kallen were resurrected, she would live in a world destined for destruction by the Honkai.

"The experimental subject is currently in exile in Arc City... there, there is a force that cannot be ignored, there... perhaps lies the key to defeating the Honkai."

After a brief surge of excitement, Otto's inner state returned to calm.

As the Grand Bishop of Schicksal, he needed to approach everything that happened next with greater caution.
