Honkai Impact: The Dream Keeper

After following Theresa for a while, the group arrived at the temporary command post.

"Hey, Theresa, you've finally arrived. What's with the young boy and girl following you?" Siegfried asked.

“We met them on the road; they said they were there to help…” Theresa said.

"Hello, my name is Siegfried Kaslana, you can also call me Siegfried," Siegfried said, extending his hand to the doorman.

"Menmo, Zhang Qing next to me, then Raiden Mei and Bronya Zaychek, then her name is Kiana, and then..." Menmo was interrupted by Long Qiao before he could finish his last sentence.

"Let's keep my name a secret until after the mission is over," Long Qiao said with a smile.

“Good lad, but… Kiana’s name is the same as my one-year-old daughter’s,” Siegfried said, then noticed Kiana’s eyes gradually reddening.

"Why... are you crying?" Siegfried asked.

"Ah? Ah, it's like this, you and Lady Cecilia are her idols. Now that she's seen her idols in person, how could she not be excited? She was so excited that she cried. As for her name, it's purely coincidental, coincidence, hehe." Men Mo quickly explained for Kiana.

"Hahahaha... As expected of me." Siegfried laughed proudly.

"Yes, yes, yes," several people echoed, their lips twitching.

“By the way, Theresa, I heard you met with the Second Herrscher before. I’m quite worried about you,” Siegfried said, turning to Theresa.

“Hmph! I don’t care about your worries, you lecherous devil,” Theresa said.

"Okay, okay."

"Alright, Siegfried, stop wasting time and tell me what's going on," Theresa said sternly.

“There’s bad news and even worse news…” Siegfried’s smile vanished, replaced by a grim expression. “The bad news is that the Valkyrie Squad has been dispatched to search for the Second Herrscher, but so far they haven’t found anything. The worse news is that because the operation has made no progress, Bishop Otto has ordered Cecilia to launch an attack…”

"What? Cecilia's physical condition isn't good enough to participate in the battle yet!" Theresa exclaimed.

"Phew, faster than I expected. Don't worry, there's still a chance." Long Qiao calmed herself down and looked at Siegfried, saying, "I think we should have at least half an hour left, right?"

“You’re right. Cecilia will arrive in Siberia in half an hour. In this limited time, we must find the Second Herrscher and then kill her.”

Just then, the communicator behind Siegfried suddenly responded.

"Haha, it seems God hasn't completely abandoned us after all," Siegfried laughed.

Then, communications from the Valkyries of regions O-23 and O-17 were transmitted from the machine; they had both discovered the Second Herrscher's whereabouts.

"Damn it, are they trying to separate us?" Theresa said angrily.

"There's no time. White-haired boy, you come with me. I believe you're quite capable here. The rest of you, follow Theresa," Siegfried commanded.

"I'm fine, what about you?" Long Qiao turned and asked.

"Of course not. Zhang Qing and I are stronger than them here, so we can protect them," Men Mo said.

"Then it's decided. The little guy and I will go to O-23, and you guys will go to O-17. Whoever spots the target, don't hold back!"

The two groups then proceeded separately towards their respective destinations.

The scene shifts to Menmo's side—

"We must, we must eliminate the Second Herrscher quickly, otherwise, otherwise..." Kiana suddenly muttered.

"Huh? Kiana, what are you talking about?" Theresa asked.

"I... I'm just worried about Lady Cecilia. She's not in good health, yet she still has to go to the battlefield," Kiana said worriedly.

“I see. Don’t worry, we will do our best,” Theresa said.

After saying that, Zhang Qing suddenly raised his foot and kicked Kiana in the butt, sending her sprawling into the snow.

"Hey! Xiaoqing, what are you doing?!" Kiana said, her head covered in snow.

"Hehe, sorry, my foot slipped," Zhang Qing said cheerfully.

"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Kiana grabbed Zhang Qing's shoulder and questioned him.

“It looks very similar!” Zhang Qing said, glancing at Kiana.

Then she whispered, "Kiana, relax. Cecilia will be fine in this battle. I know you want to see her, but you can't rush things. Besides, with Qiao Ge here, nothing unexpected will happen."

"...That's true...Now that you've said so, I feel much more at ease. By the way, what about the kick you gave me earlier?"

“Bronya thinks it’s best to just let it go,” Bronya said.

"Bronya!!"

Along the way, the group could be heard arguing everywhere. After walking for a while, they arrived at area O-17.

“This is O-17. And this is… the wreckage of Valkyrie armor?! It seems the Valkyrie forces in this area have been wiped out! But these broken suits of armor are still sending signals, leading command to mistakenly believe the Second Herrscher is here,” Theresa said.

"To be able to control even the Valkyrie armor, just how powerful is the Second Herrscher?" Theresa said.

"That means... the real Second Herrscher might be in region O-23. We need to hurry over there. If we do, we might just find out the truth we're looking for," Menmo said coldly.

"Wait, a huge helicopter is coming towards us!" Kiana shouted.

“That’s what the Destiny Organization uses to deal with heavy Honkai Beasts…” Theresa was interrupted by Menmo before she could finish speaking.

"Damn it, I don't care what it is. If it dares to get in my way, it should be prepared to be destroyed, henshin!"

After Zhang Qing finished speaking, he took out a card box, aimed it at the helicopter's lens, summoned his belt, and transformed into Dragon Knight.

"Wow... how did they do that? And this armor is pretty cool!" Theresa exclaimed.

"What's the big deal? Xiao Qing, hurry up and finish the fight."

"nature."

Zhang Qing then took out a card from the card box and inserted it into the Dragon Summoning Machine on his wrist.

"Final Vent!"

As Zhang Qing swung his arms, a red dragon appeared behind him, circling around him. Then, Zhang Qing leaped into the air, and at the critical moment, his entire body was enveloped in flames as he kicked towards the helicopter. The helicopter reacted quickly, hurriedly firing shells at Zhang Qing, but it could not withstand Zhang Qing's fatal blow. With a loud "boom," the enormous helicopter was reduced to fragments on the ground.

"Let's go, they're still waiting for us..."

“However, according to command, it takes at least 15 minutes to get from here to O-23…” Theresa said.

Then Theresa looked up and saw Zhang Qing, Men Mo, and Bronya each on a motorcycle, looking at her with disdain.

"What kind of looks are those?!"

"Get in! We'll get there quickly."

"Why didn't you bring out this good stuff sooner!"

"forgotten."

(As for how Bronya came to be, it was through Long Qiao.)

(P.S.: Could you please give me some book reviews? Let me see how many people are reading this. Also, I have a question: how did you find this book? I feel like not many people have read it.)
