Theresa believed that, as soone with integrity, she couldn't "sink into the sa mire" as Hokuto and Kevin.
She spoke with the most proper tone possible:
"Hello everyone, I'm Theresa. I'm very happy to be invited by Elysia to join the stream today."
[That familiar vibe... I feel like I've seen this episode before.]
[Honkai Impact 3. When titans gather, whoever doesn't show up is awkward—but I won't say who. (doge)]
[#QueryAntiEntropyLeaderStatus#]
[Highlighted comnt (2000 RMB): Busy with work, please do not query. (gestures to Star of Eden)]
Who left that comnt was obvious.
They even paid for the longest pin duration.
[LOL who wanted to check the Anti-Entropy leader's status again? Think our Leader Yang can't lift the Star of Eden anymore?]
[Didn't expect the stream to get this exciting right from the start.]
...
The chat buzzed with cheerful noise.
Elysia saw it and simply smiled lightly.
"Thanks to Mr. Welt for the superchat—and everyone, please stop checking the Anti-Entropy leader's status~"
She paused, then added playfully, "Careful, Mr. Welt might really show up behind you and hit you with a Star of Eden."
While lightening the mood in the stream, Elysia also logged into Honkai Impact 3rd.
In-ga, the elevator was slowly rising.
Waiting on the bridge—was her, the in-ga Elysia.
"Don't call by the wrong na, or I'll get a little moody~~"
"Elysia is just as cute as ever~~"
She praised herself naturally, and it was hard to tell whether she ant herself or her in-ga version.
Hmm… maybe there's no difference?
After that, she skillfully clicked into the main story chapters.
She officially began playing Chapter 26. The Birth of Tragedy.
The plot opened—
With Otto awakening an ancient person who had slept for 520 years.
After the intro, the ga entered free movent mode.
And to her surprise, Elysia found she was controlling Otto!
So surprised, she didn't even notice the young girl standing ahead of him.
[Otto has an HP bar! Hit him! (doge)]
[Good news: Otto has an HP bar. Bad news: I'm Otto.]
[Now that he has an HP bar, quick! Suicide!]
Of course, the players' wish to off themselves was impossible—they could only make Otto stroll around pointlessly.
Elysia followed the prompt and moved Otto toward the slightly short girl ahead.
But before initiating the dialogue, the na that appeared surprised her.
Li Sushang? Wasn't she a character from Shenzhou: Blade of Rebellion?
Since Blade of Rebellion existed as a novel in this universe, she'd never seen Li Sushang's appearance before.
Now that she had a look…
"Another cute girl. 'Otto'-san, does Li Sushang have a real-life prototype?" Elysia asked with undisguised interest.
"...Yes. She's a friend of Fu Hua and the Fu Shibao," Hokuto replied. "I'm quite familiar with her myself."
After all, he had been frequenting Fu Hua's dojo quite often lately.
"Haha, doesn't that an 'Otto'-san, you've 'corrupted' another staff mber's family?"
"How could you call it 'corrupting'? I prefer to call it..."
"Call it what?"
"Experiencing a different life."
As old friends reunited, Otto and Li Sushang t again at the old Schicksal headquarters.
In their reminiscing and exchanges, Otto's final plan began to surface.
"Then what exactly are you going to do?"
Li Sushang's question was also the one all players wanted answered.
How exactly was Otto going to bring back Kallen?
But Otto offered a convoluted response:
[The ti stored by the Imaginary Tree can be reactivated using the energy inherent in ti itself]
[A Herrscher's ability to manipulate higher dinsions can theoretically induce directed fission along the temporal axis]
Otto's words were like fantasy gibberish to Sushang, who still thought like an ancient person.
Even players and Elysia were utterly baffled.
They understood every character but not a single sentence.
The chat exploded:
[We might need a top-tier Flower Language-to-Flower Language translator. (doge)]
[Flower Language-to-Flower Language translation LOL]
[I doubt this even qualifies as human language.]
Even Elysia couldn't help but comnt:
"'Otto'-san, you wrote this script—can you understand it?"
"Of course. If you need an explanation, I can briefly summarize."
Hokuto waited a mont. Seeing no objections, he cleared his throat.
"Ahem. Actually, these two sentences are simple. They an…"
"Temporal paraters, as higher-dinsional abstractions, can be interpreted as energy and thus reactivate when interfacing with like energies. The Herrscher's powers allow precision-directed temporal fission."
Everyone: ???
So you're just like Otto—incapable of speaking human language?
Elysia gave up trying to understand. As a veteran since launch, she had her own interpretation of Honkai Impact 3rd—
Honestly, whether or not you understand the setup doesn't matter. Once you finish the story and see the result, everything clicks naturally.
She continued tapping the screen.
The plot shifted to Anti-Entropy's side.
Characters were shown one by one, explaining their status after the Herrscher of Domination incident.
Fu Hua and Theresa talked for a long while on the deck.
Until… Einstein showed up with a video.
It was Otto's resignation speech, previously shown in Pre-Apocalypse.
"Friends of the world, greetings: I am the Overseer of Schicksal, Otto Apocalypse."
"As so of you may already know—this planet we live on is periodically struck by disasters known as [Honkai]."
What shocked players was that Otto revealed the truth about [Honkai] to the whole world.
He even kindly explained what [Honkai] was.
He spoke about the threat, praised the achievents of the Far East Branch and Anti-Entropy.
His words and deanor felt strangely off to players.
Everything reeked of Otto laying a massive sche.
"To summarize: I, Otto Apocalypse, hereby resign as Overseer of Schicksal and withdraw from the organization entirely."
"My successor, Far East Branch leader Theresa Apocalypse, will soon take over as Overseer and assu full leadership of Schicksal."
...
After watching the video—
Theresa and the others all felt sothing was wrong. But after discussion, they decided to confront Otto head-on.
One key mont in the plot was Theresa and Kiana's conversation about "real Kiana."
Who was the real Kiana? Was she still alive?
Players had been arguing about this for ages. The wildest theory once claid Theresa was the real Kiana.
But this conversation hinted that real Kiana might already be dead?
[Real Kiana is dead? So Siegfried was so heartbroken he passed the na to Kiana? Now the plot connects!]
[Not necessarily. Didn't Theresa say Otto claid she was still undergoing treatnt back then?]
[And you believe Otto? I don't.]
[I think Otto may not tell the whole truth, but he probably doesn't lie outright. Still too early to say if Kiana's alive or not.]
Players debated fiercely, even questioning whether Otto was a liar.
After all, there's that iconic line: "Phoenix Immortal , I did not lie."
Elysia and the others didn't comnt.
Because, to them, this wasn't a secret.
But Elysia's self-talk while controlling Theresa on the deck drew more attention.
"Ahh, Theresa's little legs run so slow, but she's so cute~~ You'd never guess she's already at the age of fifty and knowing destiny."
"..."
"Fifty and knowing destiny?" Kevin remarked. "That fits today's chapter perfectly."
"True," Hokuto replied with a grin.
Theresa: "..."
"You two—one five-thousand-year-old popsicle and one five-hundred-year-old fossil—have the nerve to mock ?!"
Hokuto: "Fifty and knowing destiny."
Kevin: "Fifty and knowing destiny."
Of course they weren't embarrassed at all.
###!!!
Where's her Oath of Judah? Bring it here!
In the ga, Theresa talked heart-to-heart with her friends and students, and personally coached Seele and others in training.
An hour later, the Hyperion landed at the old Schicksal HQ in Kolosten.
The ga even gave Hyperion a stylish cutscene.
After the smooth landing, Durandal welcod the Anti-Entropy crew and explained the current situation in Kolosten.
A ti projection from 500 years ago had appeared, alongside signs of a potential [Imaginary Invasion].
Simply put—Kolosten was now in the calm before the storm.
A single "spark" could ignite an uncontrollable explosion.
To prevent further Honkai, Theresa and Tesla agreed to join Durandal's investigation as Anti-Entropy representatives.
After the dialogue, the ga entered free-roam mode.
Elysia moved the cara and began exploring—only to discover sothing amazing.
The map for this chapter was completely different from before.
It was open-world—go wherever you want, no restrictions.
The varied NPCs along the way enhanced imrsion and realism.
Random treasure chests added even more excitent.
This wasn't just a novelty—it was a full-on innovation!
Who would've thought Honkai Impact 3rd quietly pulled off sothing so big?
And despite all the added content, the mobile mory increase was minimal.
miHoYo's tech strength remains unmatched!
"These mountains! This water! This lighting!"
Elysia's amazed comntary hadn't stopped since Kolosten appeared.
There were just too many surprises.
Like now—she found another one.
"Valkyries can jump! They can jump!"
Elysia was thrilled.
So that's what i ant when she said you could jump now.
[A dical miracle—they've grown kneecaps!]
