Honkai Strikes Nagazora!

"Elysia? Would you like to have lunch together?"

Ling Xi looked at Elysia with a smile. After what happened yesterday, he was no longer so wary of this girl. After all... there was no need to be.

After all, he and this Miss Pink Fairy had done almost everything they should and shouldn't have done, and the only thing left was that they hadn't hit a home run yet.

"Hehe, let's call it a day."

Elysia smiled and shook her head, saying, "Besides, you don't need to come see me tonight. I have something to do and need to go out. Remember to miss me!"

"Yeah?"

Ling Xi was a little surprised that Elysia didn't bother her today, but remembering that she said she had something to do, she didn't think too much about it and smiled, "Then you should go quickly and come back soon."

"Okay, okay, bye-bye."

Elysia smiled and then quickly left, as she really had something to do today.

"Ah... it's so quiet."

After Elysia left, Ling Xi stretched and yawned. It felt so quiet today without Elysia bothering her, and... she was even a little unaccustomed to it.

The next day, a weekend, was the day Ling Xi had arranged to go shopping with Seele. Ling Xi got up very early and borrowed Mobius car to drive to the Qianyu Academy to pick up Seele...

Soon, the car arrived at the school gate. Ling Xi took out her phone to send a message to Seele: "Seele, I've arrived at the school gate."

After typing, Ling Xi sent it directly...

[Send failed. Please add the recipient as a friend first.]

Ling Xi: "???"

What the heck? Is this a bug? When did I stop being friends with Seele?

So Ling Xi sent it again, and the result was...

[Send failed. Please add the recipient as a friend first.]

Ling Xi: "..." Holy crap, this... could it really be true?

Ling Xi was immediately confused. Could it be that she and Seele were really no longer friends? But... why would Seele delete her? Could it be that her account was hacked or that she was accidentally deleted?

Therefore, Ling Xi decisively exited the chat software and chose to call Seele directly...

Then...

The notification tone indicates that the other party is on a call, and it's a one-second notification.

There are generally two possibilities when this happens: either Seele's hand speed is too fast and she hangs up in a second, or... the other person has blocked her!

In short, either possibility is bad.

Ling Xi "..."

Instantly, Ling Xi had a bad feeling. Chat software could be a bug or an accidental deletion, but... if even the phone was like this, then there really could only be one truth!

Immediately, Ling Xi could no longer remain calm. She got out of the car and prepared to go to the dormitory to find Seele. Although she didn't know what had happened, something must have gone wrong somewhere. Otherwise, how could Seele have suddenly deleted her?

However, Ling Xi's search for Seele was met with a setback by the dormitory supervisor. Despite Ling Xi's repeated explanations that he was looking for his girlfriend and that she knew him,...

The dormitory supervisor still insisted that I could go in, but I would have to ask my girlfriend to come down and pick me up.

In the end, Ling Xi never got to see Seele...

Although Ling Xi could simply force her way in, since no one could stop her, but... then what? Would she be greeted with a warm invitation from the police to come back to the station for a chat?

Although I am powerful enough, I am not so arrogant as to disregard the law. Besides, if I go to Seele like this, what should I say to her when I see Seele?

So, in the end, Ling Xi decided to give up on the idea and wait until tomorrow. Tomorrow is Monday, Seele will be in class. She can go directly to Seele's class to find her then.

But what exactly is Seele's situation?

"Huh? Why are you back so soon?"

In the lab, Mobius seemed somewhat surprised to see Ling Xi suddenly return. Didn't this guy say he was going shopping with Seele today and wouldn't be back until evening? And now...

This guy left at 8:30 in the morning and came back at 9:00.

"Um... something unexpected happened, so the plan has been cancelled."

Ling Xi has no intention of telling Mobius for the time being, after all, it's her own business, and she can go to Seele to ask her about it tomorrow.

"Is that so..."

Seeing that Ling Xi seemed unwilling to talk, Mobius didn't press further. While stretching, he took out the documents that Klein had prepared and said with a smile, "Tomorrow, we will be evacuating at 10 a. m. You'll need to bring the people over beforehand. Hopefully, nothing will go wrong."

"Yes, I know."

Ling Xi nodded silently. There shouldn't be any problems, right? Tomorrow she'd go directly to Seele's classroom to confront her, ask her what happened, and even if Seele was angry, she should be able to appease her. Anyway...

No matter what, I must take Seele with me tomorrow.

"By the way, where did Elysia go?"

Ling Xi suddenly remembered Elysia. Since she left yesterday, he felt like he hadn't seen her at all.

"Hmm? You care about her?"

Mobius couldn't help but glance at Ling Xi.

"Um... I wouldn't say that. I'm just curious, since we're evacuating tomorrow. Won't it be troublesome if she's not around?"

Ling Xi was naturally a little worried about Elysia, but considering that Elysia's hearing abilities were definitely not that simple, she wasn't too worried; it was just... pure curiosity.

"It's nothing, probably just some minor tasks."

Mobius smiled slightly and said, "After all, we are about to leave, and there are some lingering issues in Changkong City that need to be resolved. Besides, you don't need to worry about her. She will probably be back tonight. And even if she misses tomorrow's flight, she can wait for a later one."

"Um... okay."

After hearing what Mobius said, Ling Xi stopped asking questions. As long as everyone could evacuate safely tomorrow, that was all that mattered.

Chapter 132: The Honkai Changkong City!

At four o'clock in the morning in Changkong City, apart from a few people working and cultivators, most people were fast asleep, and the usually bustling streets were unusually quiet!

It seems that the entire city has come to a standstill.

A new patient was received at a hospital...

"Symptoms I've never seen before!"

Looking at the patient before them, the doctors were also bewildered, because this patient was very unusual. His body was covered in purple blood-like markings, his eyes were also purple, and the blood sample they drew was also purple...

However, the purple-haired woman had fallen into a coma, and the doctors had no clue what to do about her.

Logically, upon discovering such incurable and unfamiliar symptoms, one should immediately report to superiors before making any further decisions, but...

This is a very rare symptom, and it's the only sample we have so far. If we study it, we might make some new discoveries!

Therefore, this matter was not reported, and the doctors kept it in the operating room, intending to study it for a while before reporting back the next day.

The next day, it was the start of a new week!

Inside the lab, everyone had packed their luggage and loaded it into the car, ready to head to the airport for evacuation.

"Doctor, you guys go to the airport first. I'll pick up Seele and come right away."

Ling Xi handed the luggage to Mobius and prepared to go to the school to pick up Seele.

"Okay, no rush, drive carefully."

Mobius smiled at Ling Xi, not urging Ling Xi on, but instead telling Ling Xi to drive carefully, adding, "However, don't be too late, after all, if..."

"Whoosh!"

Before Mobius could finish speaking, a dazzling purple beam of light suddenly shone from the distant sky, appearing out of thin air like a new sun.

Instantly, everyone's attention was drawn to it, and everyone was curious: what is this...?

"Honkai!"

Ling Xi and Mobius uttered those two words almost simultaneously: Changkong City, the Third Great Honkai...

Holy crap, can it really be such a coincidence...?

"Doctor, a high-intensity Honkai Energy warning has been detected."

Klein also the first to perform a scan, and discovered that the concentration of Honkai Energy in the air was rising rapidly, and the distant beam of light was even more...

"Evacuate immediately!"

Mobius immediately announced, "Everyone, drop your luggage and get on the train, the Honkai... is coming."

"Yes, sir!"

At this moment, the guards immediately began to organize themselves, getting everyone onto the buses as quickly as possible. Those who couldn't fit on the buses went to drive their own cars. In short... evacuation!

"It's really here..."

As Elysia gazed at the pillar of light in the distance, although she already knew that the Honkai would occur, she was still extremely shocked. Mobius... had actually predicted the Honkai.

"Elysia".

Ling Xi grabbed Elysia's wrist and said, "Quickly evacuate to the airport with the Doctor, and remember to protect Doctor."

After saying that, Ling Xi planned to drive away in Mobius's car.

"Hey, wait a minute, what about you?"

Elysia grabbed Ling Xi's arm and asked, "Aren't you going to the airport?"

"Of course I'll go, but... I need to pick someone up first."

Ling Xi simply smiled at this, then gently shook off Elysia's hand, stepped on the gas, and drove off.

"Hey... you..."

Elysia was immediately dumbfounded. What time is it? The Great Honkai has occurred! Why are you still going to pick up people?

"Mobius, why aren't you saying anything?"

Left with no other choice, Elysia could only look at Mobius. Isn't this your husband? Yet you haven't said a word.

"Because it's no use saying it."

Mobius shook his head and sighed, "After all... it's Seele."

"Seele, um..."

Well, after hearing this name, Elysia roughly understood why Mobius said that. Just how much does this guy care about Seele? He actually abandoned his wife to pick up Seele when the Honkai was happening.

Because of the sudden Honkai, the original evacuation plan had to be executed immediately, but...

The entire research institute, including researchers, guards, and staff, numbered approximately 500 people. Adding their families, the total was close to 1,500. Although after two days of evacuation, only about half remained, but...

The airport only has one chartered passenger plane and one transport plane, which is simply not enough to accommodate so many people.

On the other side, Ling Xi also drove quickly to the Qianyu Academy to pick up Seele, but after driving a short distance, Ling Xi found that the road was completely blocked. Due to the Honkai just now, a large number of people drove away to escape, which naturally resulted in car accidents, and there were more than one. Therefore...

Most roads in Changkong City are completely blocked.

Helpless, Ling Xi had no choice but to get out of the car and run to school, in which she also activated the power of the Stigmata.

"Hooray..."

On the way to the Qianyu Academy, Ling Xi also discovered dozens of Honkai Beasts, either in groups of three or five or in large groups, wreaking havoc in the city.

Normally, Ling Xi would have readily offered his assistance, but now... he was too busy!

So, apart from the Honkai Beast blocking her path, Ling Xi didn't meddle in other people's business this time, after all... she only cared about Seele right now.

"Huh? That's..."

Suddenly, Ling Xi spotted two familiar figures on the roadside not far away: a man and a woman. The man had white hair, and the woman had purple hair and wore glasses...

Ancestor Kevin and Doctor. Mei?

Ling Xi instantly recognized the other person's identity.
