I Reincarnated as Mei in Honkai Impact 3

Ji Lin's voice rang out, and he slowly stepped out from the shadows, riding a warhorse, clad in armor, and holding a black Xuanyuan sword.

"Now that you've arrived at Chi You's heart, then you may die." Ji Lin's eyes were filled with undisguised killing intent as he rode his warhorse, wielding the Xuanyuan Sword and slashing at the Herrscher of Thunder.

The Herrscher of Thunder's eyes were filled with disdain as she raised her left hand, which was covered in purple runes, and grabbed the Xuanyuan Sword.

"What!?" Ji Lin was extremely surprised. He hadn't held back at all with his sword strike; it could have even killed a Chariot-class Honkai Beast.

Before Ji Lin could react, the Herrscher of Thunder began to exert force with her left hand.

A crisp, metallic sound, "Crack!"

The Xuanyuan Sword broke in two, and the Herrscher of Thunder began to gather lightning, which struck Ji Lin's body with destructive lightning.

"Ah!" Ji Lin screamed in agony as lightning flashed past, sending him flying dozens of meters away.

After the lightning disappeared, Ji Lin lay in the pit, his body a bloody mess, and a deep crack appeared in the ground.

The Herrscher of Thunder didn't look again and walked straight towards Chi You's heart.

Looking at the enormous heart before her, Mei began to gather lightning in her left hand.

Lightning Pulse

A violent surge of lightning erupted from Mei's left hand, illuminating the space. Chi You's heart was completely annihilated by the lightning. The lightning did not stop there, but broke through layers of flesh and blood, bursting out from Chi You's body and rushing into the sky.

"Such powerful energy!" Theresa exclaimed, gazing at the lightning bursting forth from Chi You's body.

After Chi You's heart was truly annihilated, he lost his life and crashed heavily into the sea, causing a strong tremor.

After Kiana and the others felt the tremor, Himeko said with a tense expression, "We have to hurry to the third heart part and stop Chi You from ascending to the Divine Continent."

When they encountered Xing, a great battle was originally expected, but Bronya negotiated and said something that made Xing temporarily become an ally. Subsequently, with the help of the Anti-Entropy Titan's firepower, they successfully destroyed Chi You's second heart, and now they are heading to destroy the third heart.

After the Herrscher of Thunder annihilated Chi You's heart, she walked towards Ji Lin in the pit.

At this moment, Ji Lin in the pit was on the verge of death. Looking at the approaching Herrscher of Thunder, he said in utter misery:

"Cough... It seems... you have already killed Chi You."

"Killing Chi You is my original desire, but... why am I happy about it..."

"That's all..."

Ji Lin looked at the Herrscher of Thunder and said gratefully:

"Thank you, young soldier, for freeing me from the long darkness..."

After saying this last sentence, Ji Lin closed his eyes and recalled the long past, with memories of family and friendship constantly surfacing in his mind.

"Cangxuan, Danzhu, and him, finally, I can be with you all..."

Ji Lin shed her last tear in this world, and under the gaze of the Herrscher of Thunder, her body transformed into starlight and vanished.

"This guy does resemble that big idiot Kiana somewhat. I acknowledge your spirit," the Herrscher of Thunder murmured.

After Himeko and her group successfully destroyed the third heart, Bronya detected a large amount of Honkai energy in a certain location.

Combining the previous analysis with the inscription on the Fu Hua Stele, he finally understood and explained to everyone:

"The three hearts we just shattered, combined with the soul steel in the crystal, are very likely actually seals. The real heart, based on the Honkai energy that just erupted, should be at position X-23!"

Just as everyone was about to head over, Xing revealed her intentions and refused to continue. Bronya also revealed hers: all of the opponent's Titans had already been taken control. In the end, Xing escaped alone.

At the same time, Theresa's communication came through, and after answering, she heard the other party hurriedly say:

"Quickly, Himeko, retreat immediately. I will send the Hyperion to meet you."

Himeko asked, puzzled, "What's wrong, Theresa? Has something happened? We just detected the source of the Honkai, which is very likely Chi You's heart. All we need to do is destroy it."

“No, the Honkai source you just detected is very likely the Herrscher of Thunder, that is, Mei. It seems that her body has been taken over by the Herrscher’s consciousness…” Theresa said seriously.

"What?! Mei's there?!" Kiana immediately ran towards the location indicated on the communicator.

"Wait, Kiana!" Himeko hurriedly called out. It wasn't that she didn't want to save Mei, but Theresa had said that it was very likely a Herrscher, and her life would be in danger!

However, Kiana didn't care about any of that and quickly ran towards Chi You's heart.

"Mei, Mei, wait for me!" Kiana ran as fast as she could, her mind filled with only this one thought, and she could no longer hear any other advice.

"How come Sister Yaya is inside Chi You's body? Shouldn't she be in the Nine Netherworlds?" Bronya wondered, but still chased after Kiana.

"Almost there, almost there! Mei!" Kiana shouted excitedly when she saw Mei ahead.

"Hmm?" The Herrscher of Thunder watched as Kiana rushed towards her, grabbed her neck, and held her tightly in her arms.

Just as the Herrscher of Thunder was about to say that she was not Mei, Kiana interrupted her.

"Waaah, Mei, where did you go? Don't leave me!" Kiana said, her voice trembling with tears.

The Herrscher of Thunder felt a pang of sadness, because she knew that she had called out to Mei, not her.

But her heart was also warmed by the feeling of being cared for, the feeling of being embraced, and the warmth of family affection, which captivated and enchanted the Herrscher of Thunder.

The Herrscher of Thunder quietly folded the wings on her back, the purple markings on her left hand gradually disappeared, and her right hand carefully stroked Kiana's head, whispering:

Kiana…

"You're never allowed to leave me again!" Kiana said, her eyes filled with tears.

The Herrscher of Thunder smiled slightly and said, "Kiana, you're such a crybaby, but let me get some sleep now."

After the Herrscher of Thunder finished speaking, her body went limp and she fell straight into Kiana's arms, losing consciousness.

"Mei, what's wrong? Don't scare me, wake up!" Kiana shook Mei's body and tentatively slapped Mei's face as she spoke.

After all, Mei had said that if a person who is unconscious slaps their face, they might wake up.

"Snapped"

"Snapped"

"Snapped"

Kiana slapped Mei several times, but Mei still didn't wake up, though her cheeks were bright red.

Kiana carried Mei on her back and contacted Theresa to send the Hyperion for treatment.

Himeko and her group saw Kiana carrying Mei and running outside. That was for the best, since they still had an important mission: to destroy Chi You's heart.

When Himeko and Bronya arrived, they found that the heart had already been destroyed and traces of the battle remained on the ground. It was clear that there was nothing more for them to do, so they had no choice but to return to the Hyperion.

Mei was taken to the Hyperion for treatment.

The remaining people also returned to Hyperion one after another, leaving Shenzhou and returning to St. Freya Academy.

Upon returning to the academy, Himeko was also admitted to the emergency room due to her deteriorating health.

While Mei was in a coma, Theresa considered whether or not to transplant a heart bomb into Mei, but the idea was quickly put out of her mind.

After all, Mei isn't a tool! If you plant a bomb in someone's heart without their knowledge, how can there be any trust left? At the very least, you need their consent.

During her coma, Mei subconsciously saw the Herrscher of Thunder once again.

Mei looked at the Herrscher of Thunder and said sincerely, "Herrscher of Thunder, thank you so much this time."

"Heh, don't try to get close to me," the Herrscher of Thunder said, arms crossed.

Mei wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled slightly and continued, "It's really good to have you, really."

The Herrscher of Thunder scoffed, "Stop flattering yourself. I'm only helping you this time for my own sake."

Mei understood, but then suddenly asked a question.

"Sister Lei, you actually like Kiana a lot too, right?" Mei said.

Mei noticed the Herrscher of Thunder's gloomy expression but continued speaking without a care.

"Anyway, you've already seen my memories, so you know what kind of person I am," Mei said, waving her hands.

"Actually, I don't mind you using my body. It's no fun staying in that Sacred Mark space all the time. Come out and see more of the world, Sister Lei. The bonds between people are really heartwarming."

Hearing Mei's words, the Herrscher of Thunder said unhappily, "You think you're all grown up now? Do I need you to teach me?!"

Meiyi: "………………"
