My outrageous life in Honkai Impact 3

The girl gazed listlessly at the small pond in front of the pavilion, wearing a white shirt and a black skirt, with a black coat over it as if to keep up with the season. Her legs, encased in white stockings, swayed slowly, exuding a languid air.

"Aunt Xuanyu, you're here!"

The girl suddenly noticed someone approaching. When she saw that it was Xuan Yu, her orange eyes lit up and she instantly became lively. She stood up from the chair and ran to stop in front of Xuan Yu, revealing a bright smile.

"I'm sorry, little Sirin, for keeping you waiting."

"It's okay, I just arrived."

Xilin shook her head, her long purple hair swaying from side to side, and blinked her eyes as she stared at Xuanyu, like a well-behaved little rabbit.

"Aunt Xuanyu, when are you going back?"

"Wait until I finish everything here."

Xuan Yu stroked Xilin's head, subconsciously comparing it to Kiana's, and found that the two little ones felt almost the same, so she couldn't help but smile.

"Is everything finished?"

"Don't worry! With me in charge, this will be a breeze!"

"That's fine."

Seeing Xilin's eager expression as if she wanted to praise me, Xuanyu didn't hold back her compliments at all, making Xilin a little embarrassed.

"By the way, Aunt Xuanyu, when can I meet Brother Luo Chen?"

At the mention of Luo Chen, Xilin's eyes shone even brighter, and she tugged at Xuan Yu's sleeve, eager to know the answer.

"I don't know either. We'll have to wait for Xiaochen to come and find us."

Xilin's attachment to Luo Chen was stronger than that of Mei and the others; in her heart, Luo Chen was her hero. If she weren't afraid of interfering with Luo Chen's plans, Xilin would have gone to meet him long ago.

"Yeah……"

Xilin's disappointment was palpable; her lively demeanor vanished instantly, and she pouted in grievance, remaining silent.

"Alright, time's almost up. Besides, didn't you always sneak out to see him? Cecilia even caught you once."

"Ah! Auntie, please stop talking about that, it's my embarrassing past!"

Upon hearing this, Xilin quickly interrupted Xuanyu, her pretty face flushing red as she covered her cheeks and said shyly.

She had secretly gone to see Luo Chen a few times before, but they were always several hundred meters apart. The only time Cecilia caught her was because it was the first time Luo Chen activated Susanoo, and seeing him unconscious in the air, she couldn't help but fly over. In the end, thanks to Cecilia, she was stopped, otherwise the subsequent plot would have been completely messed up.

"Alright, don't be so shy. Actually, I didn't want to meet Xiao Chen, but that kid made us wait for him to come to us."

Xuan Yu looked at Xi Lin and affectionately pinched her cheek, whispering a warning to her, "Don't show up in front of Kiana for now."

"I know, I'm just worried that she'll be too shocked and something might happen. I know that."

Celine put her hands on her hips, swayed slightly, and the star necklace around her neck moved a little.

"Alright then, are you busy lately?"

"No, but Cecilia's mom told me to come home later, saying that I stay at home playing games all day and that I should go out more."

"Should we stay in the Sky Dome a little longer?"

"Never mind, Bella and the others have already made plans with me to go to Mount Taixu."

Xilin shook her head and refused. She had already told Bella and the others yesterday that she would go to Mount Taixu after she finished her business here, and asked them to take their luggage first.

"Alright then, be careful. That Crimson Kite Immortal should be heading back soon, so make sure she doesn't find out."

"I know."

Thinking of Fu Hua sent chills down Xilin's spine. Fu Hua was one of the people Xilin feared the most. She only felt awe for the others, but she was genuinely terrified of Fu Hua. The psychological trauma Fu Hua had inflicted on Xilin by that Taixu Sword God attack was too great.

"Aunt Xuanyu, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now?"

"Okay, go have fun, and say hello to Bella and the others for me."

"Okay, goodbye Aunt Xuanyu!"

After Xilin left, Xuanyu waited for more than ten minutes before leaving the park and returning home.

On the sofa in the living room, Kiana sat cross-legged, wearing loose-fitting clothes, her head bobbing back and forth as she stared at the book in front of her with a pained expression, trying to understand the obscure and difficult words.

Kiana is studying.

Kiana nodded, feeling that her brain was already a bit overwhelmed.

"What are you looking at? Let me see."

On the table was a math book, Kiana's lifelong nemesis and a deep pitfall on the path of this future Herrscher of the End.

"Aunt Xuanyu, can I stop learning?"

Kiana pitifully tugged at Xuan Yu's sleeve, admitting that she was really bad at studying and that Luo Chen had tutored her so much that it had broken her heart.

"What do you think?"

Xuan Yu's sinister smile silenced Kiana, who could only grimace as she continued to study the knowledge in the book, while silently groaning.

'Help! Mei, I miss you.'

Chapter 178 Infiltration failed

Back on the Eos, Rita opened the USB drive Xuan Yu had given her, retrieved the files inside, and spent over ten minutes carefully browsing through them.

"I see."

Rita pinched her chin with her pale fingers, her beautiful face serious. The document contained details of the secret human experiments being conducted by Shencheng Pharmaceuticals, the reason for the recent collapses in Sky City, and a map of the underground levels of Shencheng Pharmaceuticals' industrial zone.

The first two points were discovered by Kiana and Xuan Yu through investigation. As for how the map came about, it was of course thanks to the lovely little angel Sirin!

Rita transferred the map to her terminal and closed the file. At the same time, Arvit entered her room with a vial of medicine and a test report in her hand.

"How about it?"

"It has been determined that this is not a medicine for treating Honkai erosion, but an unknown substance."

"Is it impossible to determine what it is?"

"Not for now."

"Alright then, we won't investigate further. Alvitt, gather everyone together, and we'll go investigate together in half an hour."

"What about Kiana Kaslana..."

"Leave her alone for now."

"understood."

As Aylvit stepped back, Rita looked at the reagent in her hand, sensing that some earth-shattering secret awaited her.

Half an hour later, on the outskirts of the Shencheng Pharmaceutical Industrial Zone, Rita and her group stealthily approached a building.

The group went around to the back door and saw two people guarding it. The two men in the group took out their guns and fired at the security guards' foreheads at the same time.

The security guard was hit and fell backward. Rita and the others did not rush in, but waited for a while to make sure no one was there before going to the back door and hacking into the electronic lock.

Upon entering the room, one immediately sensed something was amiss, as there were numerous patrolling mechs inside.

"So many mechs! If Shencheng Medical isn't up to par, I'll eat the knife in my hand!"

"Don't try to freeload here."

The Valkyrie next to Alvitt quipped and reminded her to be serious, as they were on an infiltration mission.

"Keep up close, something feels really off here."

Rita spoke sternly, instructing her Valkyries to follow closely behind her to prevent any accidents.

Having found the downward staircase, Rita and her companions evaded the patrolling mechs and slowly made their way to the control room.

The main control room door was locked with several locks, and that's when the technician, Yalvit, came in handy.

"Alvitt, it's all up to you."

"Don't worry, Lady Rita, leave it to me!"

Rita stepped back to make room for Alvitt, while she and the others observed their surroundings in case of any unexpected situations.

Before long, all the restrictions on the gate were unlocked, and Alvitt snapped her fingers, revealing a relaxed expression.

"Done! It wasn't that difficult."

"Let's go in."

The fact that there were no mechs guarding the main control room surprised Rita somewhat, but it didn't attract much of her attention.

In the center of the room was a huge computer. Rita called over Alvitt and asked her to hack into the computer to find any useful files.

"Lady Rita, we've found her!"

Upon hearing Alvit's voice, Rita looked at the computer screen, which recorded the entire process of the artificial stigma activation experiment conducted by the World Serpent in Sky City.

"Yalvit, download these and send them to me."

Rita made a quick decision, instructing Alvit to transfer everything to her terminal, and then they would leave once everything was done.

An arrow flew through the gate, aimed directly at Alvitt's head. Before Alvitt could react, Rita struck the arrow down with her scythe.

"Is entering other people's homes at will the way Tianming acts?"

Apart from Alvitt, who was still processing documents, everyone else looked at that lonely figure.
