Honkai Impact: The Dream Keeper

"Heh...you dead bat, are you ready to die?" Long Qiao grinned.

"Henshin!"

Ryuu Takumi clenched his left fist on his belt, while his right hand was in a palm shape with his ring and little fingers bent and extended forward. He then suddenly pulled his right hand back and placed it on his left hand, pressing down. A set of red and gold armor covered Ryuu Takumi's body, and a pair of golden horns that looked exactly like stag beetles grew on his head—Kamen Rider Kuuga made his appearance.

"Is this Kamen Rider Kuuga? This feels amazing!" Long Qiao said excitedly, looking at his hands.

"Long Qiao... he's turned into a monster too?" Long Qiao's classmate said, scratching his head.

"This isn't a monster transformation, it's an armored suit! So cool!"

Long Qiao rushed towards the bat Gurongi, then leaped up and pulled the bat Gurongi down from its flight, followed by a few more punches before jumping away.

"Kuuga!"

Are you calling for your mother?

The bat Gurongi lost his composure the moment he saw Kuuga and rushed towards Long Qiao, but was knocked to the ground by Long Qiao's punch.

"Ha! You look just like Tuo Shi, and you still want to get close to me?" Long Qiao mocked.

After picking up the fallen bat-gurongi, Long Qiao delivered a knee strike that sent the bat-gurongi sprawling into a limp mess. He then followed up with a punch to the face, a kick to the chest, and a downward press, pinning the bat-gurongi beneath his feet.

"Still acting arrogant? Why aren't you arrogant anymore? Let me tell you, you're a Grongi for life, understand? You still dare to find pleasure in hunting humans? You deserve to be trampled under my feet."

Long Qiao stood on the chest of the bat Gurongi, his right hand resting on his right leg, looking down at the bat Gurongi and speaking, while patting the bat Gurongi's face.

"Alright, it's time to send you on your way."

After gathering a tremendous amount of energy in his feet, Long Qiao stomped heavily on the bat Grongi again. When Long Qiao removed his foot, the Knight's Crest of Kuuga appeared on the bat Grongi's chest. A moment later, the bat Grongi suddenly exploded violently.

"Hey! System, is my Orphnoch ready to use?"

"That's fine."

"That's good"

After Long Qiao deactivated her transformation and was about to set off again, her family rushed over—

"Qiao, now that you've killed this monster, let's go home together?" Chen Yuan said in a trembling voice, wiping the dust off Long Qiao's face.

“Go home? Go home what? I haven’t had a home for a long time.” Long Qiao said coldly to the middle-aged woman.

“But we are your family, how could you say such a thing?” Chen Yuan said, tears welling up in her eyes.

“I am not Long Qiao of this world. Go find your Long Qiao. What does all this have to do with me?” Long Qiao replied again, and removed the woman’s hand.

“But Qiao, you…” Long Chen walked over, wanting to say something, but was interrupted by Long Qiao.

“Stop. I am not the Ryuu Takumi you know. I am... Kamen Rider and Orphnoch Ryuu Takumi. I have to go back. My partners and my... lover are waiting for me.” Ryuu Takumi said in a deep voice.

Just as everyone was about to say something, blue flames suddenly appeared on Long Qiao's body, blocking them. In the blue flames, Long Qiao suddenly transformed into a humanoid creature that looked like a dragon.

"This is my true self, so do you understand? I am not from the same world as you. Since we are not from the same world, there is no such thing as kinship."

Long Qiao turned back to look at her family in this world, then tore open a spatial rift in the void. She resolutely walked inside, leaving behind only her family in this world crying out in despair.

"Damn it, they're making so much noise! ​​I'm not the Long Qiao they know, yet they still treat me like their own child, humph!" Long Qiao complained as she walked through the blue-filled time tunnel.

Before long, Long Qiao returned to her familiar place. After transforming back into a human, she took a deep breath of the fresh air and said, "The air in Honkai Impact 3 smells the best. This is my home. There are people waiting for me here."

After summoning the Vanguard, Long Qiao continued his advance towards Changkong City.

Meanwhile, in Changkong City, Qingmo and his companions encountered difficulties. While Long Qiao was forgotten, five uninvited guests arrived on this land. When Qingmo and his group came to meet them, they were shocked to discover that these uninvited guests were actually themselves. However, these people had personalities completely opposite to Qingmo's and his companions'. Qingmo called them their "negative personalities." The group fought against their negative selves. Just as Bronya was about to be killed by the negative Long Qiao, the ring on Bronya's hand suddenly erupted with a strong energy. A young man's figure appeared from the white light. This was Long Qiao's trump card for Bronya, which allowed them to summon their energy bodies when they were in danger.

Just after Long Qiao's energy form appeared, the villains, whom everyone was struggling against, were all defeated by Long Qiao in a single move. Long Qiao's appearance also reminded Qing Mo and the others that the villains had hastily retreated after realizing they couldn't defeat the energy form of Long Qiao, only to be swept back by her with even greater power this time.

"Damn it, why are these villains so hard to beat?" Men Mo said after struggling to fend off the attacks from the villainous Men Mo and the villainous Long Qiao.

"Damn it, they're even stronger than last time!" Qingmo said, supporting his left arm.

"I suddenly miss Third Brother—" Yunshan said, clutching his chest and panting.

Beside the four, Himeko and the others could only watch helplessly, because they knew that they had absolutely no chance of winning this battle...

"You should obediently offer up your bodies! Let us evolve into our complete forms!" said Zhang Qing, the villain.

"You wish!" Zhang Qing said with difficulty, holding the knife in both hands.

"Then you can all die!" Qingmo said coldly.

The five people from the other world unleashed their ultimate attacks on the four of them. Qingmo and the others also unleashed their ultimate attacks, but because one of them was missing, they were instantly knocked down and their transformations were canceled. The four of them, supporting each other, angrily looked at their counterparts from the other world and walked up to Himeko and the others.

"It was you, you bitch, who almost killed us all that day. Now you can die!" Long Qiao said coldly to Bronya, then raised her blade high above her head and slashed down.

"boom!"

A beam of light struck, instantly knocking away Long Qiao's weapon. Everyone looked in the direction from which the light came and saw a figure appear before them. Bronya burst into tears upon seeing it.

"It's so lively here, do you need me?"
