Honkai Exposed, Starting with Elysian Realm Iconic Scenes

Kiana: "!!!"

Raiden Mei: "Herrscher of Reason, did something remind you of something? You sound heartbroken."

Elysia: "Curious, I'm very curious!"

Pardofelis: "I also want to know about Hua protecting Shenzhou."

Herrscher of Reason: "What is it, old fossil has been protecting Shenzhou for five thousand years, at least four thousand nine hundred of those years were spent on the mountain pickling your damn pickles!"

Just thinking about eating pickles for five thousand years on the mountain, with the same taste through all seasons, made the Herrscher of Reason want to vomit.

Chapter 77: Fire Moth's Scapegoat Master

Kiana: "Shocked! This actually happened?"

Theresa: "Really? Fu Hua ate pickles for five thousand years, wouldn't she get tired of it?"

Fu Hua: "Actually, there were mooncakes occasionally."

Herrscher of Reason: "Shut up, old fossil, your damn mooncakes only have pickles in them. When I get back, I'm definitely smashing all your damn Chun Bu Lao!"

Elysia: "Pfft Hahaha, Chun Bu Lao, Chun Bu Lao unchanged for five thousand years."

Having heard such juicy gossip, Elysia could barely contain her laughter.

She had originally thought that with Hua's diligent work style, she would protect the people of Shenzhou in unconventional ways and fight against the Honkai.

But she never expected that she would spend most of her time on the mountain pickling pickles!

Fu Hua: "Little Herrscher, immortals protecting Shenzhou naturally need to consume dew and eat fine grains. The delicacies of the mortal world would affect our state of mind. It is enough to understand their taste."

Herrscher of Reason: "Bah! Who decreed that immortals must be detached from the mortal world? If you're detached from the mortal world, why do you still come down the mountain to protect the people of Shenzhou? Immortals also need to eat, and if they eat, they should eat well!"

Kiana: "I agree with that. Five thousand years of pickles, just thinking about it is terrifying."

Raiden Mei: "Even if you researched new methods and changed the flavors every year, pickles are still pickles, Class Monitor, you're just..."

Herrscher of Reason: "Bah! The old fossil wouldn't change her cooking. Five thousand years of Chun Bu Lao, the taste hasn't changed at all! Just thinking about it now, my mouth is full of the taste of pickles. Old fossil, I'm not done with you!"

Fu Hua: "..."

Alas, it seemed no one could understand her Chun Bu Lao.

She had eaten it on the mountain for five thousand years. A steamed bun broken open with some pickles inside was a meal, the same every time.

Making one batch of Chun Bu Lao could last for a year, and making more meant she could continue eating it the next year.

Why couldn't everyone understand the charm of Chun Bu Lao?

[Quiz begins.]

[Question: In Fire Moth, who are the two people who bear the most blame?]

[A: Mobius.]

[B: Kevin.]

[C: Pardofelis.]

[D: Chakravartin.]

[This is a multiple-choice question, and you will receive a reward for each correct answer.]

Pardofelis: "Eh, it's a multiple-choice question again?"

Elysia: "Multiple choice is good, it means double the rewards. If someone can get two right, they'll hit the jackpot."

Kiana: "Ahem, based on my years of experience with multiple-choice questions, four choices with three correct answers are actually better."

Theresa: "Why?"

Himeko Murata: "Theresa, are you really that stupid? Four choices with three correct answers is the same as four choices with one correct answer. And Kiana, if you only do multiple-choice questions on your next exam, you'll have hell to pay."

Kiana: "Auntie Himeko, I was wrong!"

Pardo put her hands together and made a very apologetic gesture.

She was the type of problem student who actively admitted her mistakes but never changed her ways.

Bronya: "If two out of four are correct, then even guessing gives you a fifty percent chance of being right. However, this question doesn't require guessing. We are quite familiar with Chakravartin and Mobius within Fire Moth."

Kiana: "Chakravartin, you definitely know the answer, right?"

Chakravartin: "Heh, it's not uncommon in Fire Moth for rumors like 'whatever broke is Chakravartin's fault' to spread. A bunch of dirty beasts, self-righteous lunatics, monsters who should go to hell."

Judging by Chakravartin's tone, it was clear he had been framed many times.

Pardofelis: "Oh, so it's that kind of rumor! Then I know the answer! I choose Mobius, A!"

Chakravartin: "Count me in, D, Chakravartin."

[Correct answer.]

The first multiple-choice question was easily answered, and one of the participants, Chakravartin, who had never answered a question before, got it right.

The hot-tempered old brother originally disdained playing with a bunch of young Herrschers, but this quiz was too simple for him.

The answer was practically plastered on Brother Jie's face.

Theresa: "I don't know why, but even though Chakravartin answered correctly, I feel a hint of sadness in his retreating figure."

Kiana: "I feel the same."

Elysia: "It's nothing, really. It's just that if something breaks, it's Chakravartin's fault. If someone feels unwell, it's Mobius's fault. That's just the tradition of Fire Moth."

Raiden Mei: "...You guys in Fire Moth are really united."

Pardofelis: "You get used to it. Fortunately, so far, there haven't been any rumors that if someone loses something, it's automatically Pardo's doing."

Canned Food: "Meow~"

[Congratulations to Pardofelis for obtaining the reward: Shadowless Snow-Treading Lightness Skill.]

[Description: As a qualified cat, one must be able to come and go without a trace, easily infiltrate the heart of Fire Moth, and then leave without haste.]

Pardofelis: "Lightness skill? Could it be those Shenzhou martial arts that Hua is best at?"

Halfway through her words, the cat suddenly swayed, then did a backflip and landed steadily on the ground. The lightness in her legs made her feel an unprecedented sense of comfort.

It was as if she had opened up the Conception and Governing meridians.

Pardofelis: "It works! I feel like I've learned something incredible. From now on, I'm also a legendary martial arts master!"

Elysia: "Oh, Pardo is exceptionally confident today."

Kiana: "No, no, no, where is a martial arts master who only knows lightness skills?"

Raiden Mei: "Even a master thief would need to know a few sword techniques to make sense, right?"

Fu Hua: "If you're willing, Pardo, I could teach you Taixu Swordplay..."

Pardofelis: "No, Hua, you know me. In Fire Moth, I'm just a freeloader. Fighting has nothing to do with me. Forget about Taixu Swordplay."

It's not that the cat isn't trying, but she's truly just a weak cat who only wants to stock up and resell.

With an invisibility cloak and lightness skills, the world is so big, what place can't she, Pardofelis, break into?

Where would she even need lightness skills?

Even the legendary Far East Demon Cave, St. Freya Herrscher Vocational Technical Academy, she would dare to venture into.

[Congratulations to Chakravartin for obtaining the reward: Life Coin.]

Pardofelis: "Chakravartin actually got the Life Coin? I wanted it so badly too. I wanted to bring some food to the stray cats on Dusk Street."

Elysia: "Don't be discouraged, Pardo. It'll be your turn next time."

Pardofelis: "Thank you, Sister Elysia. I'll introduce all the cats to you then."

Theresa: "Um... am I the only one worried that something might go wrong after Chakravartin gets the Life Coin? What if he goes back and goes on a killing spree?"

Based on everyone's understanding of Chakravartin, they absolutely did not doubt that he would do such a thing.

After all, even Elysia was dissatisfied with the higher-ups of Fire Moth, let alone the hot-tempered Chakravartin.

Chapter Seventy-Eight Chakravartin's Reputation is Ruined

Elysia: "You're wrong about one thing. It's not that Chakravartin might go back and cause trouble, but he definitely will go back and go on a killing spree."

Pardofelis: "After all, there are some things that even I can't stand to see."

Chakravartin: "A bunch of despicable people, beasts in sheep's clothing. You all call me mad, but they are the complete lunatics."

Chakravartin: "Cruelly killing a little girl, and calling it 'fear driving them to shoot.' In the end, they became heroes, those scumbags, they deserve to die!"

[Chakravartin uses Life Coin, experience time twenty-four hours.]

Elysia: "Wait, Chakravartin, I understand your anger, but Eden and I have made efforts, and it was difficult to turn things around. Don't do anything rash."

Chakravartin: "A turning point? Hahaha, Elysia, it's just about nipping those despicable people in the bud. I'm much better at that than you are!"

Chakravartin: "What you dare not do, I will do! Whom you are unwilling to kill, I will kill!!!"

Pardofelis: "Can't stop him, can't stop him! Brother Jie is definitely unstoppable now!"

Damn it, Pardofelis could faintly hear screams from the Fire Moth base.

Terrible, it's too terrible!

After Chakravartin used the Life Coin, his landing spot was within the Fire Moth base.

Looking at the place he had once stayed, Chakravartin felt no warmth, no pride of returning home victorious, nor the freedom of reliving his life.

Fire Moth only brought Chakravartin anger, and repeated disappointment.

And now, this long-suppressed rage was finally about to erupt.

Chakravartin: "Insects, hypocritical and despicable people, come on! Don't you pride yourselves on justice? Aren't you heroes who conquer fear? Then stop me! Let this endless rage consume you completely, and then, with satisfaction—die for me!!!"

Kiana: "Hey, hey, hey! What's going on? Chakravartin seems to have really gone mad, even more so than when Mei provoked him!"

Pardofelis: "Can't stop him, can't stop him."

Elysia: "Can't persuade him, can't persuade him."

Theresa: "What heinous things did you people in Fire Moth do to make Chakravartin so enraged?"

Even when Mei was jumping around on Chakravartin's head last time, hovering on the brink of death, it only made Chakravartin think of killing her.

At least he gave Mei a chance to leave a final message. How kind.

But this time, everyone could clearly feel that this was different.

If the previous time was a powder keg, this time it was a nuclear reactor; the scale was completely different.

Elysia: "Sigh, the very existence of Fire Moth is problematic. The phrase '[Fire Moth must have done it]' isn't just baseless rumor."

Fu Hua: "Many decisions made by Fire Moth's higher-ups, even I cannot agree with, especially the death of Captain Himiko."

Herrscher of Reason: "Exactly! Old man, you're too reasonable. If I went back, I'd beat them all from top to bottom."

Pardofelis: "I only know that Sister Snake and Brother Jie took the blame for so many things. The higher-ups did plenty of bad deeds behind the scenes."

Kiana: "I get it. If something's broken, it's Chakravartin's fault. If someone feels unwell, it's Mobius's fault. They're the ones throwing all the blame, right?"

Theresa: "Your circle is so messed up."

Good grief. I thought her grandfather Otto letting the Herrscher of the Void go was already an unmatched display of talent.

I didn't expect the actions of you Fire Moth members to be even more spectacular.

Are you people really here to fight the Honkai?

[In the scene, Raiden Mei, in a rare visit, arrived at Mobius's territory. Sister Snake still looked so petite yet exuded a hint of danger.

"Hi, little lab rat. Fancy meeting you again. Care for a cup of tea?"

"..."

Raiden Mei looked at the tea Mobius offered, her brow furrowing.

The green liquid proved it was brewed from high-quality tea leaves, and the white bubbles rising from it were Mobius's sincere care for her.

"I feel like many people have told me not to get on Mobius's operating table, and not to eat anything Mobius gives me."]
