The ancients watched me play the Starry Sky Railway

"The Valkyrie exams have concluded, and everything is back on track. According to the message from the Moonlight Throne Central, the Valkyries have begun their search for the four gems."

"The first place we'll go is the Oceania branch in New Zealand."

"There, the Gem of Desire awaits them."

"Lieutenant Kiana, have you arrived in New Zealand? Now, let's begin the mission briefing."

"As soon as Kiana and the others landed, they received a communication from Himeko."

"Wait a minute, Himeko, I'm concerned about the analysis results of the ghost battleship..." Kiana tried to ask about the Moonlight Throne.

"Prioritize the mission, Kiana," Jizi said gravely. "I have some bad news. A day ago, a massive Honkai Impact suddenly struck New Zealand. The Oceania branch was essentially paralyzed, and the Desire Gem was lost during the Honkai Impact."

"Huh? What should I do then?" Kiana asked, her voice as frantic as an ant on a hot pan.

"Don't worry," Jizi comforted. "Thankfully, Hyperion's detector can locate the Gem of Desire."

"That's good." Kiana flashed that silly smile again. "By the way, Jizi, what exactly is the Desire Gem?"

"Fourteen years ago, Destiny obtained three high-strength Honkai energy crystals, one of which was called the Desire Gem."

"Three years ago, Skyman launched a secret research project, hoping to use this crystal to develop a weapon that could rival the Herrscher."

"Unfortunately, the research failed, and the Gem of Desire has been kept in the Oceania branch ever since."

“That’s all I know.”

"Himeko explained."

"In that case, let's go get that crystal!" Kiana said, full of energy.

"How does this kid manage to be so energetic at work? Is she a purebred cow horse?"

Emperor Wanli Zhu Yijun simply could not understand it.

Having been slacking off for more than ten years, he has deeply discovered how enjoyable it is to slack off!

Looking back, I attended court diligently every day. Although I achieved the "Wanli Restoration", it was too tiring!

This is not something a human would do!

So he touched it, and not only did he touch it, but he touched it thoroughly!

Now looking at Kiana's performance, he simply couldn't understand it.

How can there be people in this world who are so happy even at work?

"General Jingyuan and Qingque's philosophy of life still suits me. If I can touch something, I'll touch it. If I can't touch something... I'll touch it even if I create an opportunity!"

…………

"The group followed the location sent by Hyperion. The road was full of dead soldiers and Honkai beasts."

"But this doesn't bother Kiana and the others."

After defeating another group of Honkai beasts, Theresa sent a message: "Kiana~ I heard from Himeko that you are very concerned about the ghost battleship. Let me tell you the current analysis results~"

Kiana immediately cheered up: "Hey, Auntie... No, Theresa-chan is the cutest~"

"What did you just say?" Theresa's eyes narrowed. "Why is this kid so disrespectful?"

Kiana smiled awkwardly.

"Forget it." The magnanimous Theresa didn't bother to argue with her and said directly:

"According to the analysis, the battleship had not been fully activated. Only one of its 24 anti-gravity engines was functioning, and its weapon systems were all frozen."

"If the battleship's weapons were fully activated, they could probably raze North America to the ground in a day."

"For example, the maximum power of the Houkai Reactor on the Hyperion Battleship is 1380HW, while the maximum power of the Houkai Reactor on the Moonlight Throne is HW."

"How interesting! With the current research of the Destiny Organization into Honkai energy, a 1500HW Honkai Reactor is the limit!"

"Currently, there's only one type of Honkai energy with a strength exceeding 1500HW."

Kiana seemed to understand something: "Are you talking about... the Herrscher?"

"That's right," Theresa nodded. "The blow observed in Changkong City, delivered by the third Herrscher to destroy Hyperion, had a Houkai energy strength of 3200 HW. Therefore, fully activating that battleship requires the energy of four Herrschers!"

Kiana murmured, "The voice in my dream also said that four keys were needed."

"He kept talking incoherently for a long time, but I didn't understand a word of it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was so confused that he saw stars.

What the hell, what are you talking about!

"Anyway, that battleship is incredibly powerful, and it requires four incredibly powerful Herrschers to operate... Is that what you're saying?"

Queen Ma knew how to summarize.

"So, where did this Moonlight Throne come from? And who gave it to Kiana?"

Zhu Di scratched his head.

Such a good thing, just given away? How generous!

…………

Kiana and the others continued on their way. Inside the Hyperion, Jizi turned and asked, "President, where did the Desire Gem come from? Even with the authority of an A-rank Valkyrie, I can't find any relevant information in the database."

"Curiosity kills the cat, but do you still want to know, Major?" Theresa asked.

"Of course, my lovely subordinates are all involved. Even if I have to force you, I must know the truth." Himeko shrugged, and the look in her eyes was not false."

"Of course... Whether I can defeat him or not is another matter."

"Although Theresa is ridiculed as the S-rank Valkyrie Judas and its launcher, Theresa's strength is still quite reliable."

Seeing her seriousness, Theresa didn't hide anything. "It's okay to tell you. It actually happened 14 years ago. The four gems, including the Gem of Desire, all originated there."

"Fourteen years ago?" A thought flashed through Jizi's mind like lightning: "Could it be related to the Second Herrscher?"

"Indeed, fourteen years ago, the Second Herrscher dragged all of Siberia into the imaginary dimension, and the five A-rank Valkyries who participated in the battle were all killed. Even Cecilia, an S-rank Valkyrie, was unable to defeat the Second Herrscher."

"Theresa's expression darkened as she thought of her former friend."

"But we finally won. How did we defeat the Second Herrscher? And what does all this have to do with the desire for the gem?" Himeko was still puzzled.

“In the battle with the Second Herrscher, Cecilia was the only one left after only half an hour.”

“I originally wanted to give up my position as commander… and stand with Cecilia, but Grandpa Otto stopped me.”

“He thought my presence would be useless, so he ordered me to attack the Second Herrscher with a Honkai-fission bomb.”

Theresa's expression became even uglier.
