Seeing this, the audience finally understood.

Why does Mei become a Herrscher in the trailer?

On the chapter cover, why are Mei and Kiana drifting further and further apart...?

Just like Sky City.

Mei and Kiana had just met, and now they had to part ways again. This kind of plot really made the audience feel sad.

Last time, it was Kiana who shouldered everything for Sky City.

This time, Mei fell into darkness herself in order to save Kiana from danger.

miHoYo is truly wicked.

Either don't let the two of them have a brief encounter.

It's always the same: they give out a tiny bit of sweetness as a token gesture, but it's always sweetness with a hidden knife inside.

……

Himeko and Kiana also watched the game's plot unfold with furrowed brows.

Just then, the game screen changed, and a huge void rift appeared in the distant sky.

"The gate has been opened. Soon, the Imaginary Tree will appear here, and the dormant Honkai energy will seep out from the earth's veins."

"Absorb them, and you can become the Herrscher of Thunder again, buying her more time."

"You should know better than I do—her ideals could save the world, but they couldn't save her."

After saying this, Kevin left the place.

Mei stood there, feeling somewhat lost.

After joining World Serpent, she not only has to stay away from Kiana, but also from the other girls in St. Freya...

But Mei didn't have much time to think. Soon, countless monsters emerged from the imaginary space—the shadows of quantum mechanics.

…………

At this point, players were completely immersed in the story.

Even the number of comments has decreased significantly.

In the game, a loud explosion can be heard in the distance.

The entire city of Changkong was enveloped in a dazzling purple light.

Countless seawater surged wildly upwards, drifting towards the void rift in the sky.

Attentive players also noticed that the reflection of a six-winged western dragon could be seen in the floating glass shards.

Upon seeing this, the number of comments on the screen suddenly surged.

[Wow, I saw that dragon from the Genshin Impact trailer!]

[I saw it too, is it a collaboration?]

[Seriously? The collaboration is part of the event story, but we're watching the main story now.]

Is it possible that the world of Honkai Impact 3rd and Genshin Impact exist in the same universe?

Remember Otto's talk about the Imaginary Tree? Each leaf represents a world. Is it possible that both games are worlds built upon the Imaginary Tree?

Holy crap! miHoYo really knows how to play this game!

Will future main storylines be related to Genshin Impact?

……

The chat was buzzing with discussion, but Himeko and Kiana ignored it.

They were diligently pushing the plot forward, but a strange sense of urgency was creeping into their hearts.

The game briefly showed Theresa and others from their perspective.

But the perspective quickly shifted back to Mei and Kiana's.

Mei ran towards the Helios battleship while clearing away the suddenly appearing quantum shadows.

The intense collapse energy in the air caused her to become somewhat disoriented.

On the way, she met Kiana and Benares.

This situation made Mei somewhat worried.

"Kiana, what are you doing here? You're still injured."

Kiana was also somewhat angry; after the sudden anomaly in Changkong City, she couldn't find Mei.

"That's the question I should be asking. When did you run away? Do you know how worried I was about you?"

Seeing this, both Himeko and the players watching the live stream couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

This couple is so adorable!

But the knife is deadly.

After complaining for a while, Kiana quickly changed the subject, trying to coax Mei back:

"Let's not talk about this anymore. You should go back and meet up with the doctor."

It's quite unusual... Kiana seems very opinionated.

But how could Mei possibly go back? "And what about you?"

Kiana pursed her lips, but ultimately decided not to lie to Mei and told her the truth: "That pillar of light in the sky... I've seen that sight before."

"Using the power of the Herrscher of the Void, I can close this huge hole in the sky."

It would have been better if she hadn't said anything, because Mei got a little angry as soon as she did.

Even though he was already covered in wounds, he still thought about saving the world.

What a fool!

"You can no longer use the power of the Herrscher of the Void. Your body will..."

"that's not important"

Upon hearing this, Mei felt a chill run through her.

Does that not matter...? Does your life... really not matter?

“Mei…I know everything, about her body…I know everything clearly…”

As the conversation reached this point, the mournful strains of music began to play.

"To be honest, I was also very scared. The thought of possibly dying made my body tremble uncontrollably..."

"But... I can't run away because I'm scared. I have to take responsibility for what I have to do."

"Only in this way can I face those who died because of it, and face my former self..."

"Facing... Teacher Himeko"

……

The mournful music, coupled with Kiana's heavy monologue, and a brief mention of Himeko-sensei...

Whether it was the audience or Kiana who was playing the game, everyone couldn't help but feel a lump in their throat.

Kiana like this is truly heartbreaking.

Even though it was the Herrscher of the Void who did it, she was willing to take responsibility herself...

Compared to the original, somewhat goofy Kiana, the change is truly remarkable.

The price of growing up is countless knives piercing Kiana's heart.

[It also pierced my heart, sob sob sob~~]

[Mei, hurry and chase after them, waaaaaah...]

[So what if we catch up... I've figured it out, this chapter is either Kiana or Mei.]

I can't bear to watch anymore... It's too painful, the whole world feels dark.

[The immersion is so strong... Although it's quite heartbreaking, I have to say, miHoYo is amazing...]

[Upstairs, you've definitely been fooled by MiHoYo's CPU!]

…………

Kiana left.

They left riding Benares.

So Mei couldn't catch up...

She felt extremely distressed and worried...

Kiana's attitude of completely disregarding her own life...

This chilled her heart.
