A journey of Shadowverse and Honkai Impact 3rd

But in her heart, she was wondering about Xilin's movements.

When will the so-called contingency plan be implemented and when will the support from unknown weapons arrive?

The sounds of fighting gradually spread, echoing in every corner of the earth. Even the fortress in the mountains showed signs of being besieged by Honkai beasts.

It seemed that all the calmness was condensed around the emperor in the sky, isolating himself from the passionate and sad resistance. In his arrogant eyes, victory was already destined.

However, that feeling of being watched, that feeling of being locked in, did not disappear for a long time, but instead became more intense as time went by.

The beast's instincts were burning, and the Honkai energy, so vast that it surpassed the Herrscher's, was stirring within its body, burning every muscle and nerve like lava, indicating that an unprecedented threat had arrived.

Then, in response to its intuition and echoing the soldiers' heartfelt wishes, an unexpected scene arrived.

hum-

The intense music was beyond the limit of what humans could accept, but it just fell into its ears. The power gathered from the sea of ​​stars was as hot as the Burning Demon Sword that brought about the Ragnarok of the Gods, and it suddenly occupied the sky higher than it.

Perhaps it was a huge eye, gleaming with the wrath of the gods, a verdict on those who had abandoned their human bodies and the world.

It might be a huge star, emitting violent brilliance all the time, with the power to turn everything in the universe into ashes.

But only Xilin knew at this moment that it was the image manifested by the great magic, a lofty magic circle spanning the entire world and the starry sky.

Because the world bubble is so small, the great magic can easily mobilize the false starry sky curtain here, and because of the comprehensive occupation, the gathered starlight is beyond expectations.

"Drink!"

The power that determines the future direction of the world bubble surrendered to the great magic dominated by the spirit, and the extremely excited hearts thus stirred up enthusiastic cheers. At the moment when the Star Chapter was fully unfolded, Xilin launched this unparalleled attack at the giant beast.

At this moment, the Honkai Beast Emperor experienced the roar of the stars.

The world was too bright to look directly at, and the brilliant stars were so close at hand. The intense sense of existence was equivalent to the mighty power that was devouring his body at this moment. He swallowed it up irresistibly and exhausted everything that a country had gained.

The kingdom of Honkai Beasts is so fragile. In front of the stars that are billions of years old, it is as small as a speck of dust that can be easily brushed away. Even if the will of all the citizens is unified, the vast spiritual body has to surrender to the boundless sea of ​​stars.

It took the light stream more than ten seconds to completely engulf the huge Honkai beast, leaving behind a scar in the sky. Compared to the normal universe, this world bubble was too small and was even burned by the gathered starlight.

But what is undeniable is that people won the victory. The giant beast that could be called a world-destroying disaster was directly annihilated by the starlight, and the concentrated and huge-scale collapse energy was also washed away by the violent starlight and annihilated into nothingness.

The warriors, with their morale boosted, rushed forward with light bodies and fiery hearts. Their bodies and minds strengthened by magic continuously gushed out strength, and in a short period of time, they destroyed all the Honkai beasts that landed on the ground.

"It's over."

Shigure Qiluo looked up at the sky and saw a blazing white streak across the sky. It was like a channel opened up by the light of stars, covering the blue of the day and the darkness of the night.

It is unknown how long this spectacle will last in this world bubble. However, someone can confirm that this will not endanger the survival of the world bubble.

"Well, it's over." Captain Ilona straightened her majestic clothes. Not even a speck of dust was on her, and she looked like a lady who came here for a picnic. No matter how subtle the joy on her face was, anyone could see it.

"It's really quite emotional. The enemy we spent half a century fighting was easily wiped out. It seems that advanced technology really is omnipotent."

Shigure Kirara also laughed. She stepped onto the battlefield again, throwing off the shackles of her idol. At this moment, her body and mind were in perfect harmony. With the joy of victory, she talked about the future with her friends she had dealt with before.

"Yes, now everyone can pursue their own happiness without worry. Ilona, ​​you guys should work harder. Disbanding unnecessary troops is a very difficult task."

"Tsk, Qiluo, you're talking about something so difficult. You're really bringing up something irrelevant."

After complaining to each other, they smiled at each other, and in a glorious ending, the entire plan was completely completed in the morning of that day.

Xilin walked out of the Waka Tunnel. Surrounded by the light and surrounded by the applause and gazes of everyone welcoming the hero, the purple-haired girl seemed a little overwhelmed, but she still maintained her calm expression and used her tsundere nature to cover up her embarrassment.

Humph, I have done such a great thing, so naturally I deserve everyone’s respect!

I won’t be intimidated by everyone’s enthusiasm!

"The light I saw today is the most beautiful light I have ever seen in my life. If Miss Xilin doesn't mind, how about making today a National Day from now on?"

Speaker Thoreau chuckled, immediately attracting the support of others in the crowd.

"That's a good suggestion. It's still morning, so there's plenty of time to celebrate in the afternoon."

Minister Darwin said, his unusually relaxed face now glowing with new life and becoming even brighter.

"Well, hurry up and get ready. Next, I'll also share this good news with the people."

Thoreau smiled sweetly and decided on the next schedule. He believed that this newly established festival would be particularly grand, enough to satisfy all participants.

"Phew, I'll go take a break first. I'm pretty exhausted after all this operation."

After Xilin finished speaking, she prepared to find a place to rest, but before that, Speaker Thoreau said a few words.

"Miss Xilin, if you don't mind, there will be an awarding ceremony in a few days. We hope you can participate."

"After all, as a hero, your name and deeds will surely be recorded in history."

Uh……

I always feel that this kind of admiration comes a little too easily?

Xilin, who felt as if she had been cleansed overnight, felt the disparity in the world.

273. At the Banquet

"Based on observations from multiple locations, it has been confirmed that the European continent is experiencing a spatial folding phenomenon."

"In a strange way, the missing part connected to the remaining four-fifths, forming a perfect closed loop."

"Everything is moving in the right direction. This news is perfect."

A sincere smile was on the woman's face, a smile as beautiful as a flower, blooming with sweet charm, just like her previous figure on the stage, pure and beautiful.

Now it's time for everyone to start having lunch. A grand victory undoubtedly needs delicious food as embellishment. Therefore, no matter who you are, you can get the happiness that flows between your lips and teeth in this feast that is all you can eat.

Fine wine and delicious food emit a beautiful glow under the crystal-like chandeliers, as if they are soaked in the glory of victory. Every sip can always bring you a warm feeling.

The tiny squirrel flew onto the edge of the table and feasted on the white-clothed table. Unfortunately, even though it chewed very quickly, it could not make up for its small size.

But for the big cat lynx, there are no such objective conditions that make people unhappy. Every time it opens its bloody mouth, it means that delicious meat has entered its stomach, and the sweet juice seems to be no different from the fruits of the plants in its home.

It’s not that no one has tried to gain the acceptance of these two lovely yet powerful creatures with their smooth touch, but they are aware of their equal status and do not allow anyone to cross the line.

In this case, people had no choice but to find the most dazzling pearl at the banquet. As a hero who completed the feat of cutting the world, she deserved the respect of a country.

Not to mention, in the future, there may be a deeper connection between the Inca Republic and the forest.

"Miss Xilin, this banquet was a bit hasty. I wonder if you are satisfied?"

Speaker Thoreau, who rarely drinks, smiled reservedly, holding a glass of red wine that matched the mood, his blue eyes sparkling with bright joy.

The braided ponytail was spread out, and a few strands of naughty hair were tied up with a holy green ribbon. The girl, wearing a beautiful dress, stood quietly under the light, with a bright yet distant atmosphere all around her.

She was like a princess from a fairy tale kingdom, with long purple hair softer than silk and golden eyes that contained a color more precious than gold. When the girl came back to her senses, she nodded lightly, pouring down moving moonlight.

"Satisfied. At least I can't find anything I'm dissatisfied with about the food."

"Even compared to the forest, this banquet is no less impressive."

Xilin spoke truthfully without any modesty, and her sincerity was in line with the warm atmosphere of the banquet, which made Thoreau's smile even more intense.

"By the way, I heard that Miss Shigure Kirara will be heading to the forest with you all soon. In this regard, I wonder if we can establish a formal visiting channel to facilitate future exchanges?"

Strike while the iron is hot. After witnessing the leader's enthusiasm for magic technology, she believed that this banquet was a perfect opportunity for communication and to test the waters.

"I can't make the decision on this matter. It depends on what Sera thinks. However, it looks like there shouldn't be any problems. From what I understand, you have a good chance."

That was all he had to say, and anything else he said would be meaningless. After receiving a good response, Thoreau left with a thank you message of "Enjoy it" and let the pretty girl enjoy the tranquility of the banquet.

That's right, she felt that the fervor of the outside world seemed to be a certain distance away from her. Unlike the celebrations at home, where she could express her joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness without restraint, there was always a warm gaze watching her, accepting everything about her.

So, there is a slight sense of tranquility, but it is not an uncomfortable feeling. It just feels like there is a lack of the pleasure that allows people to laugh freely.

She ate the delicacies at the banquet peacefully and drank the drinks at the banquet peacefully. If Sierra saw this attitude of Xilin, her close friend would directly tell her that she had a psychological burden.

Therefore, I have more concerns when doing things. I am bound by the formal atmosphere in formal occasions and have lost the free and easy temperament at home.

"You look so calm, Celine."

At this time, Shigure Kirara came over. In a serious occasion, she did not look at the hero in front of her with any prejudice. Instead, she was curious about the girl's strange behavior.

He doesn't seem like a great hero respected by a country, but more like a philosopher who has a thorough understanding of the world. That kind of transparent peace always makes people calm down and a sense of assimilation and tranquility surges in their hearts.

But, Xilin is so beautiful like this. If she debuts as an idol, she will definitely be a shining child.

“Because this isn’t difficult.”

"At most, I'm a little tired, but with Sera's help, it's just okay."

Xilin's harmless Versailles words earned her a careful scrutiny from Shigure Kira. After confirming that her behavior was not artificial, Shigure Kira hummed and said.

"You're really good at talking. If other people heard you, they would think you were just going to the market to buy some vegetables."

"It's clearly a great cause, saving the world, but it's being made to sound so simple. I wish I could be the one to accomplish this. I've always wanted to be admired by everyone."

Shigure Qiluo's seemingly dissatisfied complaints contained a funny childish tone. Inadvertently, Xilin raised the corners of her mouth without any defense, and her feeling towards the Valkyrie beside her became a little better.

"It's a shame, but your ability is just that. If you want to accomplish something extraordinary like this, Shigure Kirara, you should practice for another hundred years or so."

Having regained her lively mood, Xilin, in a good mood, started bickering with Shiyu Qiluo. Their relationship was no longer like that of enemies before, but rather a pair of bad friends and enemies.

"A hundred years? Forget it."

Shigure Qiluo curled her lips in annoyance, but she already had a new idea about how to improve her strength.

"But once I enter the forest or home you mentioned, I will try to learn magic. With my talent, it won't be long before I catch up with you. When I do, I will laugh at you mercilessly."

Although they lost in person, they did not lose in momentum. At the lunch banquet, a competition of appetite suddenly broke out. The two characters, who still retained their childishness, began to eat recklessly, creating a vacuum area on the table.

Ah, life is so beautiful.

274. Surprise

The moment of national celebration is always short, and the arrangements for many matters afterwards are also a headache.

I am afraid that only by using unprecedented victory to stimulate the vitality of the soul and cover up the fatigue brought by complicated matters, can every official face this hard-won today with both pain and happiness.

Three days had passed since that day. The mountain fortress guarding the Waka Tunnel had been left to the soldiers to continue celebrating, while Xilin and the others boarded another special train to Kika, the capital of the Republic.

Here, the people of the Republic welcomed the heroes who had made great contributions in this trip with flowers and red carpets. Thanks to the reliable police force, no serious accidents occurred.

"The atmosphere has finally calmed down. If it had continued like this, I wouldn't want to come back to this place at all."

Looking at the city in the sun in a high-rise hotel, the ladylike Xilin sighed, summarizing her life since returning to Kika.

In summary, she is not very happy to accept everyone's enthusiasm. When her daily travel is disturbed, she would rather be just an unknown tool, at least not to the point of becoming a folk idol.

She has to hurry to use the space to transfer when traveling, and she is like a ghost, not daring to be exposed to people's sight. She is more troubled than the real idol Shigure Kirara.

"I thought you had magic related to disguise, like the invisible helmets in myths and legends."

Shigure Kirara, who had already packed her luggage and was planning to visit her hometown, was now free of charge. She didn't need to perform on stage, so she looked at the quiet and beautiful Xilin with obvious curiosity in her mouth.

"There is magic in this area, but I just don't know how to do it."

Xilin sighed again.

"If you really want to learn magic, I can ask Sera for you later to see if you have any talent in this area. However, before that, I want to explain one thing."

"Oh? What's it? Tell me."

Shigure Kirara smiled brightly.

"The Honkai energy system and the magic system conflict with each other. As the fundamental energy driving force, magic power and mana are incompatible with Honkai energy, and will annihilate each other at the basic structure."

"In other words, if you embark on the path of magic, you will have to give up everything you have gained through Honkai energy. Previously, someone who was closely related to Honkai energy almost died due to environmental conflicts, and was only rescued with great difficulty."

The person that Xilin was talking about was naturally Misterlin, and upon hearing these words, Shigure Qiluo couldn't help but frown. She had high expectations for her own magical career.

"Giving up Honkai energy is fine. Nicholas, who lives in symbiosis with me, isn't a life form that requires Honkai energy to survive. As a warrior, of course I choose whatever works best. There's no such thing as prejudice."

"Just... I hope my acclimatization won't be that serious."

The decision to go home not only involves the subsequent magical thoughts, but also involves the existence of Lady Cecilia. With the blessing of these two aspects, Shigure Kirara's determination is not something that can be easily shaken.

Dengdeng.

Suddenly, there was a light knock on the door. When Dan opened it, an unexpected person appeared in everyone's sight.

The girl was wearing a fitted green dress, and her graceful temperament flowed like flowing water, radiating an elegant soft light on her fair skin and charming face. It was no exaggeration to say that her arrival made this place flourish and gave it the fresh and warm feeling of natural mountains and rivers.

"Sera?"

Xilin cried out in surprise, and emotions of astonishment and joy surged in her heart, causing her golden pupils to shine and a slight blush to appear on her cheeks. She was so excited that she could not say anything. During the days away from home, she realized the preciousness of home and relatives.
