Kiana sighed.

"Ever since Bronya obtained the Herrscher of Reason core, it feels like she's been cursed, always getting thwarted as soon as she appears."

Bronya thought about it carefully and realized that it really was true. Not only her, but the first two Herrschers of Reason seemed to be in the same situation.

Could it be that the core of the Herrscher of Reason is truly cursed?

Even Bronya had some doubts.

"I feel like that last sentence sounds familiar."

Kiana scratched her head.

"Himeko," Seele reminded her.

Kiana was silent.

Seele was a little flustered and asked in a low voice, "Bronya, did Seele...did Seele say something wrong?"

Bronya shook her head.

“Seele, you’re absolutely right! Those who dwell on the past have no right to look to the future. If you’re always concerned about those who sacrifice, then those sacrifices will be worthless.” Black Seele’s voice echoed in Seele’s mind.

She felt that what Hei Xi said was somewhat right, yet somewhat wrong, a complex emotion of confusion and entanglement that she couldn't discern.

The camera shifts again, revealing a vortex-like structure in the sky, with the top of the building at its center, glowing red and accompanied by thunder and lightning, creating an oppressive atmosphere.

Kiana, kneeling on the ground, stared in astonishment at the figure in the center of the black storm, which was interspersed with red lightning. She instinctively stammered, "You are..."

"What? You don't recognize me anymore... Kiana?"

The figure slowly turned around, revealing its true appearance, which was familiar to the audience, yet drastically different.

Arrogant.

This is the first impression left on the audience.

His red pupils shifted slightly, and a wanton smile appeared on his lips.

"I will...turn everything around."

"I will! Change everything!"

Xiao Shi suddenly stood up from the sofa and said the same words as himself in the promotional video, only with a more arrogant and impassioned tone.

"That line is so cool, it's like it was tailor-made for me."

Xiao Shi was extremely excited.

It sounded like he was explaining something to everyone, but it also sounded like he was talking to himself.

"I originally wanted to speak more passionately, but Yaqing said that at this moment I should act like an old-fashioned person, so that the audience would think that I am an old-fashioned person, so that's why I used this tone!"

Xiao Shi seemed unaware that everyone was looking at him like he was a child, and continued to do what he thought was a cool move.

"What do you think?"

The group exchanged glances.

Alicia was the first to indulge her, saying, "Xiaoshi is right! So... can Miss Fairy give me a hug?"

"Come on over, Sister Shi is very happy today."

"That's great!"

Unlike Alicia, who was only thinking about sticking together, May, Mebius, and Velvet were analyzing the extremely short promotional video.

"Logically speaking, Fu Hua's consciousness is in Kevin's hands, and Kevin shouldn't let the feathers to which Fu Hua's consciousness is attached be lost. So who is the Fu Hua that appears in the promotional video?"

Mei analyzed rationally.

“That’s me!” Xiao Shi emphasized.

"Fu Hua's consciousness may be gone, but she still has a physical body, right? In the movie's Easter egg, Otto has preserved Fu Hua's body very well," Möbius replied casually.

"That's me!" Xiao Shi emphasized again, stamping her feet in frustration as no one paid any attention to her.

"Alright, alright, the child is about to cry." Yaqing told the three of them to stop discussing it.

Xiao Shi was so anxious that he almost cried.

Secondly, if they keep discussing it, all the movie's highlights will be discussed, then what's the point of watching it?

Both morally and logically, Yaqing should step in to stop it.

"Alright, I also want to share my opinion." Wilvi spread her hands.

Fu Hua, who had participated in the recording, naturally knew what was going on, but there was a confidentiality agreement in the employee contract, so she certainly couldn't explain it to everyone.

"Know it..."

Yaqing's eyelids twitched, and just as Xiaoshi was about to speak, she coughed a few times.

Fu Hua understood immediately and quickly covered Xiao Shi's mouth.

But with just those two short words, May, Mebius, and Vervier understood the situation and had even analyzed it in their minds.

Fu Hua cannot become a Herrscher, but a Herrscher can become Fu Hua.

After the promotional video was released, it sparked another wave of excitement online. In just a few minutes, it ignited a frenzy among viewers.

"Holy crap, an honest guy being oppressed and then snapping—what a satisfying plot point!"

[“Punching against destiny, kicking at the world serpent, making Durandal roll on the ground, beating Kevin to a pulp—this is Fu Hua!”]

"Is the contrast really that big?"

"Of course! Look at the previous Herrschers, which one of them doesn't have a contrasting personality?"

Upon seeing these comments online, Xiao Shi was extremely anxious, but due to the confidentiality agreement, she could not reveal her identity online and say that the person in the promotional video was not Fu Hua, but herself.

There's still a month until the next movie.

Xiao Shi found it extremely difficult to endure; every minute felt like a year.

"Yaqing, why did you release the promotional video so early!"

"Why did the official release the promotional video so early?!"

Such comments suddenly appeared on the official website's forum.

After watching the trailer, they couldn't sleep or eat properly, their minds filled with thoughts of the plot of the next movie, even though there was still a month and a half until the movie's release.

Like Xiao Shi, they also found this period extremely difficult to endure.

And it was at this moment.

On the official website, the official account suddenly released another message.

Viewers clicked on it with great excitement, thinking it was because the pace was too fast, the movie's release date was brought forward, or that it was being released online.

But the news was completely unexpected.

I never expected it to be a web series.

Honkai Impact 3rd: The Legend of the Broken Swords of China

Chapter 311 Seven Disciples Kill Their Master

Without any promotion, and with nobody even knowing it, a web series followed immediately after the promotional video ended. It didn't occupy a prominent spot on the homepage recommendation page; instead, it was like a surprise, waiting for viewers to discover it.

"If I hadn't stumbled upon a message, I wouldn't have known this web series had broken some kind of cardinal rule!"

"I almost skipped it."

The audience was very puzzled.

Unlike previous web series that dominated the homepage and were eager to be seen by viewers, this web series seems to be tucked away in a corner, as if it's best if viewers can't see it.

"The Record of Broken Swords of China?"

Xilin read it aloud without thinking.

The name, with its distinct Chinese flavor, immediately suggests a connection to Fu Hua.

Including that promotional video.

"Could it be that Fu Hua will be the lead in the next movie?"

Sirin's thoughts resonated with the audience, but many more viewers were pessimistic. They felt that the protagonists of every movie either died or suffered a tragic fate, so it was easy to imagine what would happen if Fu Hua became the protagonist.

With a feeling of trepidation.

They clicked on the web series together.

The beginning of the web series was so rudimentary that there was no visual at all, just a patch of black screen with a line of white text in the center.

"In the boundless darkness, the dead immortals regained consciousness."

With each line spoken, a corner of the screen lights up, revealing a shocking scene.

His right foot was severed at the ankle, the tendons and veins in both hands were destroyed, all his internal organs were damaged, and his chest was the most severely injured, with more than ten lacerations.

The most fatal wound, however, was to the head.

A sword rang out, and blood stained the screen, standing out starkly against the dark backdrop.
