A journey of Shadowverse and Honkai Impact 3rd

Sera looked up. Although she didn't open her eyes, the appreciation in her tone was enough to replace eye contact. Quietly, Laura Mia responded to Sera's praise with a cheerful laser.

"Sera, you must take this shining attack."

She was ready to rush forward for a close combat, but the effect of the laser immediately stopped Laura Mia's impulsive thoughts, causing her face, which was always filled with smiles, to show an expression of surprise for the first time in the battle.

With her mouth slightly open and eyes wide open, the data fed back clearly showed that the huge void was indeed the road to another dimension. The chaotic nature reflected by the noisy radio waves and the disordered time and space was so chaotic that even the happy mecha girl had to admit that Sera's move was already an extraordinary attack.

If she was hit, Laura Mia would die instantly in the turbulence of time and space where she would not know what was happening!

A look of distress appeared on her face. Laura Mia was obviously in a dilemma between whether to get close or not. But facing Sera's faint smile, the girl felt that she should still go all out to repay her expectations.

"All confirmed! Function unlocked at level II!"

The machine gun-type electromagnetic gun installed behind her was even larger and more sophisticated. The combined and added muzzle completely turned it into a launch nest for terrifying projectiles. Beside the mecha girl, a large number of floating guns suddenly appeared, forming an artillery network with extremely high firepower density. Although the momentum that covered the sky and the sun was not as great as the cluster of creations that Sera had seen, it should not be underestimated.

Are you planning to blow up the training ground?

Frankly speaking, there wasn't much pressure. The spatial techniques that were directly related to the structure of the world itself had unparalleled suppressive power when facing ordinary physical bombardments or ray attacks. Sera was very curious about what kind of response Loramia would come up with when she saw the technique of dimensional devouring.

Should he break through his own speed once again to achieve the effect of being hit, or should he use some new technology to directly block it?

With inexplicable expectations, under Sera's operation, the door to the void was opened. In the seemingly endless magnetic thunder and the bombardment that penetrated the sky and the earth, the void leading to the unknown area swallowed all the destructive energy. Then, a door filled with the breath of destruction suddenly opened right opposite Laura Mia.

It is filled with a torrent of energy that is enough to tear apart molecular structures, and a ferocious plasma that is as hot as a star.

All the energy that Laura Mia had previously output had now turned into a sharp blade in Sera's hand, about to attack this high-performance prototype.

Oh? You're quite capable, aren't you?

The gushing light rushed into the real space at an unimaginable speed, but failed to hit the target, not only because of the terrifying maneuverability of the mecha girl itself, but also because at the critical moment, Sera sensed the turbulence of gravity.

The technology called gravity well was used to manipulate the surrounding gravitational field, achieving further acceleration and directional deflection of the surrounding energy beams. The brilliance that was difficult to capture in the instantaneous training ground of Loramia, which cut into time and space from the perspective of gravity, had vaguely changed the reference frame, thereby gaining more time.

"This is too much, this speed."

Surrounded by an unreachable barrier, Sera's blue eyes looked at Loramia who was curiously trying to pierce the defensive barrier with her lance outside, and her face showed helplessness about the terrifying performance of the mecha girl.

If the performance parameters of the experimental plan were truly achieved, I'm afraid I could single-handedly destroy the disaster that still remains on this planet.

"I have Sera to thank for this. I also temporarily integrated and calculated this technology. How should I put it? It's like the evolution of a living organism adapting to a high-pressure environment. Suddenly, the efficiency of my body's operation has increased by 1000% compared to before!"

The laughing mecha girl happily put away her lance, then blinked at the large hole in the training ground that was melted by the high heat, revealing an innocent expression as if it had nothing to do with her.

Yes! It was Sierra!

139.llmy's wonderful common sense

After happily completing the handover project, the blonde girl took the right hand of the cute girl next to her, ran to a remote area of ​​the sublimation place, and led the girl into her own matchbox-like hut.

Canned energy is lined up in order, clearly visible in the well-preserved counter. The originally pure white walls automatically switch to a real-time starry sea scene after someone enters. The beautiful planets have three-color skies, floating in the vast sea of ​​stars, showing a unique magnificence.

Sera and Laura Mia felt as if they were on a starship, and through the transparent and sturdy portholes they could reach the vast universe that was inaccessible on the ground.

"This is my home. Although everyone is a bit concerned about my status as a prototype, I still receive all the necessary treatment."

Letting Sera stay on the sofa that had just been made, Laura Mia took out two cans of food with different labels from a room in her house and happily handed them to Sera, her sky-blue eyes full of anticipation for giving gifts.

"Why not give it a try? Humans can eat it, too. Or rather, it's human food, but it's been modified so that mechanical life forms can eat it."

"Really?"

Without much reason to refuse, Sera curiously used the wind blade to open the package, and with an embarrassed look on her face, she saw two lumps of ice that looked frozen to the bone. However, when her speechless gaze shifted to Laura Mia, the blonde mecha girl giggled, and the thermal gun in her hand was ready.

Are you doing barbecue here?

The canned food floated in the air, receiving the wanton gaze of the thermal energy gun. After a while, a faint fragrance wafted out of the refreshing soup, and a mellow sweetness emanated from the amber liquid, capturing people's sense of smell and taste.

Before she even ate it, she already had a sense of novelty. While Sera was still thinking about which one to try first, Laura Mia had already made a choice for Sera with tableware.

One is an ordinary-looking soup spoon, and the other is an even more ordinary straw. To be honest, when Sera saw such ordinary tableware, she felt a little sorry for the food that was captured by the straw.

"Try it?"

Loramia, who was sitting next to Sera, expressed her importance to her friend with such enthusiasm that she almost took out her camera to take pictures to record the precious moments. However, such enthusiasm was a bit overwhelming. The lack of sense of boundaries seemed to make it seem as if the progress of their friendship was accelerating and surpassing the past, which made Sera feel a little dangerous.

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing!

But can this sentence be said to be accurate when applied to llmy?

I took a tentative sip and caught the delicious aroma of oil from the soup, as well as the essence of plants, which made the fragrance wrapped around the taste buds softer. My tongue was intoxicated by the soup inadvertently, and I was tempted to taste more.

Sera glanced at Laura Mia, who had been looking at her, and put down the spoon. Under the expectant gaze of the robot girl, she took a sip of the amber wine...

That’s right, this taste has a lingering aftertaste, it’s clearly wine…

Suddenly I felt that the food combination was not right, pairing what looked like broth with wine... Is this some kind of fantasy way of eating?

"Very good, right? Although humans are rare now, the dietary system passed down by the creators is clearly preserved in the sublime place."

"Every time I try to recreate it, I feel that humans are an incredible race. It's a creative idea to give mechanical life forms similar taste detectors. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to appreciate the beauty of food."

Loramia smiled naturally and innocently, and it was obvious that she really liked this way of eating. Although what she said was very reasonable, this subtle combination still made Sera feel a little empty, and she couldn't tell for a moment whether it was soup with wine or wine with soup.

"By the way, if you mix the two, the resulting mixture will have a more unique flavor."

As she spoke, Laura Mia was ready to take action and perform a wonderful round of matching reactions from Sera's hand. However, as soon as the mecha girl stretched out her hand, she was stopped by Sera with a smile on her face.

The body was made of an unknown material but had a soft texture. If it weren't for its pitch-black color, Sera would have thought that she was holding the soft palm of a human girl. During the physical contact, Sera smiled at the confused blonde girl.

"I don't eat much, so I won't waste it."

"It's okay, Sera. If you can't finish it, I'll help you."

Laura Mia answered briskly, her face full of innocence making it hard to say what to say. And the idea of ​​helping people eat...

You really can do such a thing! llmy!

Seeing the seriousness on the girl's face, Serra suddenly wondered if it was because they hadn't seen humans in so long that the machines in the Sublimation Center had very natural and pure thoughts about how they behaved...

"Okay, llmy, let's talk about business."

Letting go of Laura Mia's arm, leaving only a can of fragrant wine to drink from time to time, Sera began to slowly tell her experiences with Aurora, and also asked what kind of ending she would have after being transformed into a necromancer.

"Hmm."

She nodded continuously and listened carefully to Sera's story. Her shining eyes seemed to want to engrave this scene into the core of her mind. After a while, Laura Mia understood and answered easily.

"It's okay. Necromancy is an interesting subject in the Ascension Chamber. Unique undead organisms are very valuable for research. Even if I can't restore her original freedom, I won't let her suffer any loss."

"As for technical compensation, I can grant you access now and even help you upgrade. Sera, your wrist computer is a bit outdated."

Pointing at the wrist computer produced by Eyalon on Sera's right hand, Laura Mia's blunt comment hinted at the wealth of the Sublimation Place. Sera was not nostalgic and handed over the wrist computer generously.

"Then I'll leave it to you, llmy. If possible, remember to teach me a few of the techniques you just used. I'm very curious about that mysterious operation."

"No problem, Sera, you'll be able to check it on the upgraded wrist computer when the time comes."

After getting the well-made wristbands, Laura Mia ran away in the real-time calculation scene of the simulated starship. It seemed that there was an upgraded and modified workshop or factory in her own house, which was indeed much more convenient than the rigorous Eyalon.

Wow, it has been almost five days since I came here. After receiving the information from the Place of Sublimation and bringing some support supplies to Eyalon, I will return to reality.

I don’t know if Xilin listened to my suggestions for improving the dress.

140. Necromancer Protocol

Sera's brief stay at the sublimation site allowed her to gain a lot of useful knowledge. Even though most of it could not be put into mass production due to limitations in her own processing level and had to be shelved, the valuable role of pioneering knowledge had been achieved.

Just like the gravitational field that Loramia demonstrated in the confrontation, which intervened in space-time to achieve its own acceleration, in a sense, this might also be considered a curvature engine, an important technology that starships rely on to break through the light-year scale blockade.

Unfortunately, most of the technologies from the glorious era of the Istrian civilization have become burial objects of the old era, and have been sent to an unknown death along with the demise of mankind.

Even if it is a place of sublimation, it is impossible to store all the technologies, so that a civilization that can spread its glory to the starry sky can be technologically reproduced.

"Look, the new computer is pretty good."

The golden-blue paint job is both luxurious and elegant. The blending of colors is like gold dissolving in the azure sea, which is extremely beautiful. When Sera put on the wrist computer, a clear authentication sound was emitted, and the authority promised by Laura Mia was in place, allowing Sera to complete the technical reading mentioned above.

"It's very beautiful. Illmy, you have quite a talent for art."

As she said this, Sera raised her right hand and looked at the golden and blue wristband blooming with the same brilliance as crystals and gems in the simulated starlight. She felt that Laura Mia's color matching was well chosen, and the suitable material and shape design also brought a comfortable feeling to wear.

It is so light and fits snugly, it's hard to believe it's a wrist-mounted computer. Such advanced technology has made it so sophisticated that it looks like a work of art.

"After all, the reference database already contains some designs by masters. This isn't entirely my own level."

Upgrading the wrist-mounted computer didn't consume much computing power, but analyzing and explaining the technology that she had integrated took a lot of effort. Now running at low power, after obtaining Sera's consent, Laura Mia beautifully started the zero-gravity simulation program, turning the experience in the house into a dreamlike journey.

The blonde mecha girl was flying in such an environment. Even though she knew that everything was just the hypocrisy of real-time calculations, she was still happy in it. In Sera's eyes, the figure lying by the porthole was a girl yearning for the starry sky. The innocent atmosphere surrounded her, adding the splendor of starlight to her delicate figure.

It is like lying on the invisible air, accidentally exerting some force in a tiny place, thus getting a slight upward floating tendency, and a wonderful comfort and softness enveloping the body and mind. Although this scene has its own direction, it is slow and quiet, as if there is no fixed goal, giving people a leisurely and cheerful feeling.

The bound soul broke free from the constraints of gravity and was able to approach the stars in the sky. Inadvertently, Sera, who was looking at Laura Mia, realized the vision of the mecha girl's inner desire.

——Roam freely in the sky and see the vast sea of ​​stars that you have never truly reached.

"Illmy, do you want to go out?"

The machine girl shouted happily without turning her head.

"Of course, in such a vast world, if you don't transcend it and see it all, then you'd be wasting your life!"

"The meaning of life is to fly, Sera."

"That's a noble ideal, llmy. But to accomplish this, your engine needs to be even more powerful."

Turning her head to look at the current Laura Mia, Sera said leisurely with a faint smile.

"If you want to transcend and see the entirety of this vast world, Sonic Machine can't do it, so, llmy."

"You go and become the 'Wings of the Universe'."

The beautiful and handsome slogan entered Laura Mia's heart, bringing a subtle throbbing to the blonde mecha girl. The dream of being recognized by others shone brightly at this moment, and the title of "Wings of the Universe" was engraved into the girl's underlying code. Laura Mia thought, sooner or later...

"That's right! Sooner or later, Laura Mia will become the 'Wings of the Universe' leading everyone!"

It is not only to let this planet see the shining sea of ​​stars again, but also to reach this vast starry sky with its own power!

With her back to the starry night sky, the cute and lovely mechanical girl gave an optimistic cry. Her whole heart seemed to have reached the ideal shore far in the future. Her sky-blue eyes were filled with gorgeous stars.

"Great, great. Sorry to bother you for the next few days, llmy. I'll be leaving and returning to Eyalon in two days, so you guys better hurry up and make a list of support for me."

In contrast to Laura Mia, Sera's compliments were like a stick. Although they were inspiring words spoken by herself, the girl seemed unmoved. She just kept a note of Laura Mia's smile in her heart, and perhaps in the future she would paint a picture or write an essay to commemorate it.

.........

Time never stops for just one person. While Sera, Loramia and everyone in the Place of Sublimation were carrying out their own activities, in a laboratory with complete facilities and strict regulations, a brand new undead machine was playing a game that was familiar to both parties with the virtual projection in front of it.

A shadow poem belonging to this world (a game similar to auto chess).

The pale skin carries the coldness of a corpse, and the absolutely unhealthy color has a morbid aura. The cherry-pink short hair, which should be lively and energetic, has also been slightly faded due to the influence of death, and it seems that in a while it will turn into an emotionless pure white.

"The lab's analysis results are in. Necrotic mechanical life forms have many abnormal codes in the underlying protocols. Normally, this would cause the entire system to crash. However, my other self, you're lucky."

"You, with updated core code, are still able to run on an abnormal platform. In a sense, perhaps this is what humans call reincarnation."

Frowning at the dealer's random dealing of cards, the girl with cherry-pink twintails really wanted to give the damn dealer a few sets of robotic military punches, but on the surface, she still maintained a calm expression, as if she was sure of winning.

Perfect hand.jpg

"So, what's the downside?"

Knowing that there was something else behind her words, Aurora Alter with short cherry pink hair asked helplessly, puffing her lips angrily as if she had popped a bubble of chewing gum.

"Two questions."

Aurora Before said lightly, and didn't play a single card in her hand in the whole round.

"I haven't understood the specifics of the agreement yet. We need a more detailed analysis to understand its specific effects. Until then, the IoT at the Ascension Place will not be open to you."

"Also, perhaps without your knowledge, you have already revealed information about the Place of Ascension."

141. “Live and wait for death”

"What do you mean?"

The fingers that were about to perform the operation stopped moving, and the sickly girl with cherry pink short hair raised her light blue eyes, and the question she asked echoed in the pure white laboratory.

"It literally means that, although we don't know the details, the old guys speculate that your body may have released some kind of high-level wave, transmitting certain information without the detectors in the Sublimation Place detecting it."
