Honkai Impact: The Dream Keeper

(PS: At the request of a reader "Afei Who Runs Around Everywhere", I'm giving him a cameo role, so there will be scenes of people from different worlds fighting together.)

The Hyperion, lower deck passageway of the battleship—

Himeko leaned against the railing outside the medical room, as people kept bringing wounded people past her.

She instinctively covered her wound. Blood was flowing uncontrollably.

“…This has really blown up.” Himeko said.

No one answered her; only the serum shimmered faintly, reflecting a face covered in scars.

An alarm sounded, making the already noisy passageway even more chaotic, but Himeko's eyes remained calm.

"Alright, it's time to go out for some fresh air," Himeko said.

Himeko stood up and resolutely walked in the opposite direction of the crowd.

"Although they're all immature, I still quite like it here. There's still a long road ahead, isn't there? I wish you... good luck," Himeko said.

"I really want... another drink..."

------------------

"An unidentified heat source is approaching from behind at a speed of 420 kilometers per hour!" the operator said.

"Oh? It's finally here." Future Dragon Cleverly said with a wicked smile.

"1000 meters... 800 meters... 500 meters... The target's image appeared on the display screen—"

On the Hyperion, a dragon-shaped Honkai Beast appeared, gliding across the Hyperion's barrier and slowly landing on the deck.

Himeko also appeared on the elevator. She put the serum into the thigh of the armor. Just as Himeko came out, Mirai Ryuki and the others also stood on the deck of the Hyperion.

"Aunt Himeko, you're here. This is our final battle against the Second Herrscher," Menmo said.

Just as Benares crashed through the Hyperion's barrier, Himeko threw the parts of the machine that Benares had damaged at its head, and then kicked Benares onto the deck.

At the same time, Bronya and Future Dragon Sword rushed forward. After transforming into Faiz, they took out Faiz blades and were about to slash Benares when a flash of orange light appeared. When everyone opened their eyes, they found that they had arrived in the domain space of the Second Herrscher.

"Hehehe..."

A laugh came from afar. Everyone turned to look and saw the Herrscher of the Void walking down from the void, saying to them, "Are you... ready to die?"

“No…” Zhang Qing said.

"You're courting death, so let's start with you!"

The Herrscher of the Void extended a hand toward Zhang Qing, and Zhang Qing flashed to the front of the Second Herrscher.

"Holy shit! Henshin!"

Just as Zhang Qing arrived in front of the Second Herrscher, he quickly transformed, and the Second Herrscher immediately knocked him away.

"Thank goodness... thank goodness I learned a little bit of Third Brother's hand speed, otherwise I would have been knocked down on the spot," Zhang Qing said after prying himself off the wall.

Upon seeing Zhang Qing's appearance, the five quickly transformed into knights to prevent themselves from becoming Zhang Qing.

After seeing the five transform into Kamen Riders, the Herrscher of the Void turned her attack on Himeko. The Herrscher of the Void manipulated her abilities to toy with Himeko before slamming her hard against a wall that suddenly appeared.

After Himeko fell, Menmo and Qingmo took the lead and attacked the Herrscher of the Void one by one, but they were blocked at the same time. Then, Wei Lai Longqiao appeared on the head of the Herrscher of the Void at some point. Wei Lai Longqiao wielded her knife and struck at the Herrscher of the Void. Of course, Wei Lai Longqiao was controlled by the bandages that turned out of the Void Spear behind the Herrscher of the Void, while Menmo and Qingmo were knocked several meters away.

"Holy crap! Is this some kind of absurd situation? We haven't even left the starting village yet, and we've already encountered a boss." Men Mo exclaimed as he lay on the ground, looking at the Herrscher of the Void.

"If I could live, I would definitely send the screenwriter a knife, razor blade and the handle!" Qingmo also complained.

After the two struggled to their feet, Mei and Bronya, who had transformed into Gaim and Kabuto respectively, were also blasted away by the Herrscher of the Void and slammed against the wall.

"Hmph! Mere ants, how boring." The Herrscher of the Void mocked as she looked at the fallen crowd.

Just as everyone was about to continue fighting, the sound of a zipper suddenly came from the void above the Herrscher of the Void's head. An orange, fruit-like object crashed down, kicking up a cloud of dust.

“He… has finally arrived.” Miki Ryuki suddenly smiled.

"Who is it?!" the Herrscher of the Void shouted angrily.

"Oops, the landing was a bit of a failure, I'm so dizzy." A figure in armor dusted himself off in the dust and said, seemingly carrying something on his left arm.

"Couldn't you have landed a little slower?" the figure carrying the armored vehicle suddenly said.

"Sorry, but we've arrived at least."

"You... how dare you ignore me!" Upon seeing the scene before her, the Herrscher of the Void immediately unleashed her Void Spear to attack the figure.

"boom--"

After the sound rang out, half of the Spear of the Void was instantly knocked off.

"Don't rush, look at you, you're in such a hurry. Okay, warm-up over, my name is Long Qiao."

As the dust settled, the voice rang out, and it was revealed that the armor was actually the Kamen Rider Kakashi form, and the person Kakashi was holding in his left arm was none other than Obito from Naruto.

"Oh dear, if I hadn't gotten the coordinates wrong when I came, I could have gotten here much sooner. But I've found a great helper," Long Qiao said.

"Long Qiao... is that you?" Qingmo asked.

"? Brother Qing? You're still alive? No... I mean you're not dead? But that doesn't seem right either... What's that saying again..." Long Qiao pondered.

"You bastard..." Qingmo said with a smile.

“Qiao…you’re finally back…” Bronya and Mei ran to Qiao’s side and said.

"Bronya...Mei...Alright, you two rest now, I'll take care of things. Oh, and please protect my dog." After putting Obito down, Ryuki handed the dog to Bronya from his body.

After handing the serum to Ryuu Takumi, Himeko and Ryuu Takumi from the future exchanged a glance. Then, the two of them simultaneously transformed into their Kamen Rider forms and took out their Arcanine Great Orange DJ Gun Greatsword Mode, pointing it at the Herrscher of the Void.

"Alright, Obito, you launch a feint attack, and I'll attack with my future self."

"understood."

Obito Uchiha launched the first attack, feinting a Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique at the Second Herrscher, but it was easily dispelled by the Herrscher of the Void. Then, two figures suddenly appeared behind the Great Fireball Technique and simultaneously slashed at the Herrscher of the Void. This move successfully broke through her defense and knocked her to the ground. Then, Ryuki threw away his weapon and, together with Obito, punched the Herrscher of the Void, giving her no chance to breathe. At the same time, Ryuki also used the Fire Rope Great Orange DJ Gun to provide long-range attacks.

After Long Qiao grabbed the Herrscher of the Void's right hand with his left hand, he delivered a knee strike to the Herrscher of the Void's abdomen, and Obito followed up with a punch to the Herrscher of the Void's face.

"Damn it, the Friendship-Breaking Fist!" Long Qiao complained as she fought.

“Really? Well, that’s perfect. She’s your friend, so you used your fists to bring her back to her senses when she was being manipulated,” Obito said.

Just as the Herrscher of the Void was getting angry and trying to break free of her restraints, Mirai Ryuki suddenly fired a shot at her, catching her completely off guard.

"Fire Style: Storm Dance!"

After Long Qiao restrained the Herrscher of the Void, Obito seized the opportunity to unleash a close-range Fire Release attack on the Herrscher of the Void, instantly sending her flying.

"You guys!"

"Obito, restrain her! I'm going to extract the serum!"

"give it to me!"

Obito hurriedly used Wood Release: Wood Spikes to try and control the Herrscher of the Void, but the Herrscher of the Void resisted. Suddenly, Future Ryuki intervened. After transforming into the Extreme Fox Mark IX, Future Ryuki used his abilities to bind the Herrscher of the Void. Ryuki took out the serum and plunged it into the Herrscher of the Void's neck. As the liquid in the serum slowly decreased and flowed into the Herrscher of the Void's body, Ryuki took out the Faiz belt and Faiz Burst device given to him by Bronya and transformed into Faiz Burst form. Then, he fired a full-attack photon destruction beam.

"System, come out here!"

"What's wrong?"

"Could we separate Kiana and Sirin?"

"Yes, but it will consume all the points you have saved up."

"It's only points, so let's use them up quickly."

"Ding! Successfully consumed one million points."

The photon destruction beam swept over the Herrscher of the Void. When the dust settled, two girls were seen lying in the crater. One of them was Kiana, and the other was a girl with purple hair, who was lying quietly.

"Mission...is over. It's time to send you back," Long Qiao said, looking at Obito.

Then, after transforming into an Orphnoch, Long Qiao tore open a rift in the void beside him and kicked Obito into it before Obito could speak.

After Long Qiao deactivated his transformation, everyone rushed over, and Himeko went into the pit and brought both girls out.

"Kiana is unconscious, but who is this girl...?" Himeko asked疑惑地.

“I don’t know, but she is the Second Herrscher, a survivor of the Babylon Laboratory, and a very tragic girl. It seems that all her friends died in the Babylon Laboratory,” Long Qiao said.

"By the way, are you me from the future? What will the future world be like?" Long Qiao asked, looking at her future self after explaining.

“Oh no, I’ll tell you what happened when you have the chance to come,” Future Dragon Clever said.

"It's getting late, I should go back, otherwise Honkai Beasts will come." Future Dragon Takumi suddenly said, and then disappeared into the space-time rift without giving anyone a chance to ask questions.

"Well... now that things are settled, shall we go back?" Long Qiao asked.

"Hmm... going home..." Bronya said softly.

After Long Qiao opened the spatial tunnel, everyone went inside together, taking the unconscious Xilin with them.
