I Reincarnated as Mei in Honkai Impact 3

Meanwhile, inside the floating island of the Destiny headquarters—

"Your Excellency, we have analyzed the intelligence from the humanoid brain we obtained in Sky City."

"While the analysis is insufficient to pinpoint the exact location of line K-423, it suggests that she remains within that city."

"At the same time, the existence of this intelligence itself means that K-423 is under the surveillance of World Serpent."

"There's also a... comical hero who appeared in Sky City. According to witnesses, his weapons are a purplish-black longsword and a dual-wielded greatsword. He is suspected to have the strength of a Valkyrie between A and S rank."

At this moment, Rita is reporting the latest intelligence to Bishop Otto.

"What, a comical hero? Where did this guy come from?" Otto's face showed a hint of doubt upon hearing this, but it quickly disappeared.

"Rita, focus on K-423. As for that... Jixia, we can ignore him for now. If he tries to hinder our plans, then deal with him."

Finally, Otto arranged for Rita to represent him in transporting a new batch of drugs to Sky City, leveraging the medical technology and information channels controlled by "Shenzhou Medicine" to facilitate Rita's search operation.

"Follow me~"

Three days later, inside the hotel...

"Come on~ Mei, open your mouth~ Ah~" Kiana put a mouthful of food into Mei's mouth.

Mei is currently lying in bed being cared for by Kiana.

"Um... Kiana... Actually, I'm fine now. I can eat by myself, so I don't need to do this..." Mei said helplessly. Although her wounds had healed and there was still a large scab on her abdomen, she could still move around normally.

I only experience occasional pain during normal activities. As for how painful it is? It's like menstrual cramps...

"No, Mei used to take care of me like this, so now it's my turn to take care of you." Kiana fed Mei another bite of rice as she spoke.

The clattering sounds of eating stopped.

Kiana finally finished feeding Mei her breakfast, then said goodbye and went out to investigate the Honkai, and also took out the trash.

After Kiana left, Mei looked at the wound on her stomach and estimated that it should be fully healed by tomorrow. It has to be said that after breaking the first seal on the black sword, her body's self-healing ability was quite strong; she might not even need to go to the hospital!

Meanwhile, Rita had already arrived inside Shenzhou Pharmaceutical and begun searching for information.

"Permission unlocking, humanoid machine unlocking module embedded."

"Where should we begin? The victim saw a boy wearing a yellow comical face mask fighting a Honkai Beast..."

"People call him the Comical Man, but according to intelligence, it seems that the Comical Man was not seen during the three days of Honkai outbreak. Instead, a girl was fighting against the Honkai Beasts."

Rita entered the data, and then countless comments, photos, and videos from the associated online sources rapidly appeared on the screen. Amidst this torrent of results, Rita spotted two familiar figures.

One of them was the widely known comical hero. Rita saw his mask through the intelligence and felt a chill run down her spine...

The other one is a familiar white fluffy ball.

"Finally found you, K-423."

Rita set her sights on her prey and finally revealed a long-lost smile.

Finally, based on the data provided by Alvito regarding the location and frequency of Honkai Beast occurrences, as well as the location and time of K-423's appearance, Rita issued orders to the Valkyrie Squad.

"I need you to pay close attention to the disaster alerts issued by Sky City at all times. Once a Honkai Beast appears, the Undying Blade team members must set off immediately and rush to the scene," Rita said seriously.

"So, the pursuit of K-423 is suspended?" asked Arvit in confusion.

"According to the intelligence I've gathered, there have been multiple reports of K-423 being sighted at the site of the Honkai disaster over the past three days, with some even capturing images of her from behind..."

"As long as we keep a close eye on the disaster site, we'll have a chance to catch K-423. You truly deserve to be called the deputy captain. So what we need to do now is patiently wait for the next disaster to occur?"

Rita chuckled and said, "...In this city, there's no need to be patient while waiting for disaster."

Two days later——

"Kiana, come and try this dress on!" Mei said excitedly.

"Huh? Mei, you mean this~" Kiana took the clothes, looked at them from left to right, and finally put them on.

The clothes Mei handed to Kiana were the Sky Ranger's outfit. As for where she bought it? After Mei recovered from her injuries, she went out and stumbled upon a clearance sale.

Last time, Mei bought hundreds of Kiana's orange coats from the entire store. This time, she encountered Sky Ranger outfits again, and Mei once again chose to buy hundreds of them from the entire store, eventually storing them in her inventory.

Kiana looked in the mirror and said with satisfaction, "Mei, where did you buy these clothes? They look really nice!"

"Of course, this is a collector's edition, there are only one or two in the entire Sky Dome City~" Mei said without blushing or getting impatient.

"As expected, Mei is the best to me~" Kiana said happily, hugging Mei's waist from behind.

"Of course~"

As night fell, Mei put on her black cloak and trench coat, tidied her hair, and put on a yellow comical face mask.

Then, Mei took another one out of her storage space and handed it to Kiana, indicating that she should take it.

Kiana took the mask and put it on her face as well.

On this night, Sky Wicked Man and Sky Ranger strike simultaneously!

The two wandered on the rooftop terrace, traversing the corners of the city step by step.

It wasn't until the Honkai Impact Detector in Mei's hand issued an alarm and marked the location that the two rushed there.

Meanwhile, Rita led her Valkyrie squad in an ambush at the site of the Honkai.

"Attention all units! Target...? The Comical Heroine has appeared with her companions!"

The intelligence officer's voice instantly reached the ears of every Valkyrie.

Before the Valkyries could react, a purplish-black longsword shot out, its lightning instantly slicing a Honkai Beast in two, before the blade plunged deep into the ground.

Then, the comical swordsman in black and Kiana fell from the ground. Kiana unleashed her dual pistols, taking down a Honkai Beast with every few shots, and intense gunfire and flashes of light erupted everywhere.

Mei, wielding a long sword, had a layer of lightning emanating from her body, which finally coalesced between the blades. From a distance, as Mei swung her sword, streaks of lightning slashed towards the Honkai Beasts, leaving huge scorch marks on their bodies, while smaller zombies were instantly decapitated.

After Mei used Lightning Slash a few times, she realized that although the skill was powerful, it consumed stamina. So she took her sword and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Honkai Beast.

Rita, observing the power of the man in the yellow mask, couldn't help but think to herself, "Is this the comical hero of Sky Dome City? He's certainly very strong!"

After the two of them finished off all the Honkai Beasts, Kiana suddenly turned around and said, "...Are you going to keep hiding? Come out."

Then the Valkyries surged out, pointing their guns at Mei and Kiana. Finally, Rita stepped forward with a smile and said: "It's been a long time since I've greeted you, Miss Kiana, and this gentleman next to you, Sky Dome... Mr. Comical Knight."

Mei looked at Kiana, shook her head, and gestured for her to speak.

Kiana nodded, took off the comical face mask from her hand, and said to Rita, "Rita Losweiser, I remember you. We met a few months ago during the exam at St. Freya Academy, when you were an inspector sent by headquarters."

Rita smiled and said, "I'm glad you still remember my name. You must have had a hard time wandering around for so long. I'm here on His Holiness the Bishop's orders to invite you back to the Destiny Headquarters."

“I will not go with you,” Kiana refused.

Rita continued, "You should understand that your condition is very unstable. This innocent city is proof that it is frequently attacked by Honkai Beasts because of your existence."

"The only thing that can help you is fate. Go back to the lab for treatment, and no one will get hurt because of you anymore. That's better for everyone."

"I don't want to repeat myself," Kiana refused again.

Just as Rita was about to flip the table and start a fight, a voice rang out.

“Wait, Kiana, I think what that lady named Rita said makes a lot of sense.” At this moment, Mei stepped forward.

Upon hearing this, Rita felt that there might still be a chance for things to turn around, which would naturally be the best outcome; she would try her best not to take action if possible.

Mei stepped forward and said, "Miss Rita, don't worry, Kiana will listen to me. And I'm very satisfied with your answer; I know you genuinely care about Kiana."

Rita smiled and said, "Mr. Funny Hero, you are indeed very understanding. As for Kiana, we will naturally use the best treatment methods to treat her, so we hope you can persuade Miss Kiana."

Mei, wearing a comical face mask, nodded and looked at Rita with a smile, saying, "Miss Rita, that's a very good suggestion."

Mei then bowed to Rita, and Rita, out of politeness, subconsciously bowed back to Mei.

In that instant, the purple lightning blade in Mei's hand appeared instantly, gathering lightning, and shot out towards Rita!

"But I refuse!"
