Someone in Honkai, the Cheat is Bang Bang Chapter 5

Ren Yu found a bench and sat down on his own, quietly watching Kiana before urging, "Hurry up and train—I'll need it in a bit."

"Hmph!"

Kiana snorted, turned around, and walked straight into an empty training pod.

Zzzz

The automatic door closed, and a sound like air leaking from a balloon came out.

Then, the screen on the side of the door turned green, and a few words appeared.

--In use, do not disturb.

--Occupant: Kiana Kaslana

--Currently simulating: B-Rank Ballistic Shooting Training.

Taking advantage of this break, Ren Yu carefully recalled the training methods of these Valkyries.

B-Rank, that was shooting balls, right?

The launcher continuously fired white and red balls, and the trainee had to pop them one by one with a gun.

Hitting a white ball earned one point, hitting a red ball deducted one point.

A pretty basic exercise, mainly testing gun control.

Before long, the screen showed the numbers 166/21/7.

So Kiana had hit 166 white balls, 21 red balls, and missed seven.

Ren Yu blinked. Pretty impressive.

He remembered Kiana used a handgun, right.

Firing nonstop—was she reloading with her left hand while shooting with her right, then swapping?

After a while, the numbers on the screen changed again.

--247/41/12

--Training complete. B-Rank Valkyrie shooting training passed. Starting next exercise: Armored Body Combat.

Ten minutes later, Ren Yu was almost dozing off from boredom.

It looked like Kiana wouldn't be stopping anytime soon.

Glancing at the empty training pods nearby, Ren Yu hesitated for a moment, then downed the drink he'd bought from the vending machine.

With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the crushed aluminum can precisely into a trash bin hundreds of meters away, and strode into the training pod.

Beep

Teacher entry detected. Simulation pod switching to advanced mode.

Inside the blue floating light screen, several options appeared.

Speed Test

Strength Test

Combat Technique Test

Ranged Weapon Technique Test

But all these options were grayed out. The only one Ren Yu could use was:

--Simulated Combat: Lower-tier Honkai Beast "Honkai Emperor"

After a moment of silence, Ren Yu suddenly laughed out loud.

So it really had thrown a Honkai Emperor at him—was it trying to make him reenact that "nine days and nine nights of brawling" from his resume?

Whatever.

Beep

As he pressed the button, the room erupted with alarms, red lights flashing continuously, and the screen's content changed.

Simulation: "Honkai Emperor"

Danger Level: High

Proceed?

Ren Yu silently pressed the confirm button, and the pod immediately trembled slightly, as if brewing something.

Energy converging... 14%... 16%... 18%

He crossed his arms, his black eyes reflecting the steadily rising progress bar, waiting quietly on the sidelines.

Meanwhile, in Valkyrie Training Grounds, Sector A.

The entire training area had descended into chaos.

"What's going on? My training suddenly got cut off?!"

"Same here. It says the energy's been forcibly requisitioned. Who's running a large-scale Honkai Beast simulation? Got an itch they need scratched?"

"Could it be the instructor? No, that doesn't make sense—why would they be in a training pod at this hour?"

"Don't tell me Kiana's up to something again."

"It's not me! I didn't do anything this time!"

Kiana, who had just stepped out of her training pod, quickly shouted in her own defense.

Unfair, it really wasn't her!

She'd been training just fine when she got kicked out too.

Energy convergence complete. Simulation commencing.

Meanwhile, in the training pod where Ren Yu was, a cold mechanical voice rang out.
