Honkai Impact 3rd: I picked up a Seele at the start of the game.

Chapter 84 Bald words

……

Seele had told him that in that battle, the seemingly powerful Herrscher of Death actually had a fatal weakness—

The Herald descended upon the body of Creation.

This is actually quite strange.

If she were truly at her peak, she should be a fusion of Creation and Apoptosis, rather than Apoptosis abandoning its physical form to enter Creation's body.

This was actually required by the script.

Therefore, this form of the Herrscher of Death has a fatal weakness—the power within her body is extremely unbalanced and not fully integrated.

If we can find that crucial dividing line, we can easily defeat her. If we have to fight her head-on, even with only 80% of Seele's current strength, it will be enough to give her a hard time.

(In other words, the Herrscher they defeated at that time possessed 80% of her full strength, further weakened by Mebius's Honkai energy-weakening potion, meaning she actually only possessed slightly more than 60% of Seele's current power. The Herrscher in the simulation, however, represents Seele at 80% of her full strength.)

But in the end, Seele said with a teasing smile: Seele has already told you her weakness, so what are you going to do next?

Should we kill Seele?

~

Yun Fuyu, having fused with the genes of the Great Free Heaven and bound to Seele's fate, quickly found the Herrscher of Death's weakness during the siege and seized the opportunity to disrupt the balance of power within her. The Herrscher of Death, who looked exactly like Seele, suddenly experienced a sharp drop in aura! Then, the pure Honkai energy blade that Yun Fuyu conjured stabbed fiercely into the Herrscher of Death's chest!

It seems like yesterday.

His eyes trembled violently, and the ribs that had been pierced by the Herrscher throbbed faintly, causing his heart to sway uncontrollably.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and his blade stopped an inch in front of "Seele." The next instant, the attacks of the other two Herrschers simultaneously struck him—

The simulation was abruptly terminated before the excruciating pain could even begin. Three minutes of survival time was already far more than anyone else's.

The spectators couldn't help but sigh and lament, saying things like, "What a pity! If he had stabbed me that time, I could have lasted at least five more minutes," and so on...

Seele's deep blue eyes sparkled as she kept her gaze fixed on him in the image.

Yunfuyu has entered the PVE arena, which is a mode where waves of monsters attack and you have to see how far you can last.

When Yun Fuyu couldn't hold on any longer, Kevin was right in sync with him.

Kevin entered the simulation room later than him, and only survived for a little over a minute against the three Herrschers. However, in the PVE battles against hordes of Honkai Beasts, he was quick, accurate, and ruthless, finishing off each wave faster than Yun Fuyu. But due to his limited strength, the number of waves he could last was only the same as Yun Fuyu's.

When the two left the PVE arena at the same time, the audience seemed to sense something and held their breath, anticipating the next PVP battle.

Behind the scenes, Velvi chuckled softly, her fingers flying across the screen. Kevin and Yun Fuyu "coincidentally" met.

"...What a coincidence, it's you."

Kevin was slightly surprised. He knew that Yun Fuyu had participated in the fusion surgery and was no less powerful than him. But Kevin hadn't seen Yun Fuyu enter the arena, which was why he said, "What a coincidence."

Yun Fuyu shook hands with Kevin in a friendly manner and said, "I haven't thanked you yet for bringing me to the Firemoth. Please forgive my belated thanks. But if I may be frank, you've all been elusive and I haven't seen a trace of you. You can't blame me for that."

Kevin smiled and said, "It's alright. Rescuing people is the duty of the Moths of Fire. You don't need to thank me. Your talent is no less than mine. Keep it up. Perhaps one day you will be far stronger than me."

"That's ridiculous."

After exchanging pleasantries, they simultaneously retreated to create distance, preparing for battle.

Kevin knew Mei was watching him closely, and he had to win. Even though Yun Fuyu, as a fusion warrior, was no weaker than him, strength alone couldn't determine the outcome of a battle!

The boy named Kevin possessed an arrogance unimaginable to most. However, this arrogance was extremely restrained and never revealed. Rather than calling it arrogance, it would be more accurate to call it—"belief."

As for Yun Fuyu, he knew Seele was watching him, he knew Kevin had killed the Herrscher in that scene, and he knew his own strength was already greater than Kevin's. Given all this, what reason did he have not to win?

Next up is the battle between men—

Buzz————

It felt as if a bomb had suddenly exploded next to my ear; the violent roar made my eardrums vibrate violently, leaving only a lingering buzzing sound.

what happened?

Yun Fuyu stared blankly at Kevin, his movements incredibly slow and clear in her mind. His resolute face, taut muscles, bulging veins, even his calm eyes and rapid breathing…

But he had no time to react, and his desperate attempts to control his body were futile. He could only watch helplessly as Kevin's fist approached his face, the whistling of the wind so clear...

To onlookers, all they saw was Kevin swiftly throw a punch, but Yun Fuyu had no time to react. Fortunately, Kevin stopped in time, but Yun Fuyu remained standing there, as if she had been terrified and lost her mind.

Whispers rose and fell, some expressing surprise, some disdain, and some taking it for granted.

Xi'er pushed through the crowd, rushed into the training room, found Yun Fuyu, and asked him about his situation.

But he didn't respond for a long time.

------

I heard it—

The souls of the deceased weep, and the people in despair cry out to the heavens in anguish, but there is no response.

The man stepped forward and gave me a once-in-a-lifetime blessing.

I saw it—

Those who have not yet died are walking step by step toward destruction. They would rather die than break, and they despise the existence that brings them suffering, but in the end, there is no response.

That person came with a smile and gave me the only blessing in this world.

But...who am I?

Who is that person?

Why did I forget all this? And why am I remembering it now?

------

"Yunfuyu? Yunfuyu? Are you alright?"

Seele's gentle, concerned voice gradually roused him.

Yun Fuyu sat up, looking around blankly. The crowd had dispersed, leaving only Kevin, Mei, and Xier, all looking at her with concern.

He covered his head and groaned, "It's nothing, I just suddenly feel a little dizzy."

Mei's expression was grave: "Is this a side effect of the fusion surgery? There have been volunteers who experienced the same thing before. After partially fusing Honkai Beast genes, they often fell into a coma and their memory also declined."

"...It seems so. I suddenly felt that the world was extremely unfamiliar. Kevin's movements were very slow, and the whooshing sound of that punch rushed into my mind like endless murmurs...After that, I don't remember anything."

He truthfully expressed his feelings.

Seele panicked slightly: "What should we do?"

Mei pondered for a moment, then said, "I might have a way. Let's go, I'll take you to the First Research Institute. I need to discuss this with Möbius."

Yun Fuyu nodded heavily. Xi'er quickly helped him up. The group headed towards the Möbius Institute.
