"Ah... Where is this place?"
Xin Yu stared at a map he had finally managed to find. However, the various pieces of information and routes displayed on it were utterly unfamiliar, making it impossible to decipher. He wasn't even entirely sure of his current location. Couldn't this map have been drawn better? At least mark the current position!
"Hmm... I'm lost."
Xin Yu glanced at the sky; it was already nearing dusk. If he kept wandering like this, he might end up holess tonight—the kind who actually has a ho but can't get back to it.
This isn't Arica; being holess doesn't grant any buffs... Wait? Why would being holess in Arica grant buffs? Where did this weird mory co from?
As Xin Yu agonized over whether he should ask soone for directions, his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket.
It was dead earlier, why did it suddenly vibrate now?
Could it be that this phone has so kind of self-charging function?
Puzzled, Xin Yu pulled the phone out of his pants pocket. He saw that the previously dark screen had lit up again, but the interface wasn't his ho screen; it was a navigation app.
Xin Yu didn't quite understand, but since the phone was working now, he decided not to dwell on it too much. Better hurry ho using the navigation.
Relying on his hazy mory, Xin Yu entered the na of a street near his ho into the navigation app, preparing to navigate there.
[Destination changed. Navigation comncing. Turn right in 50 ters.]
Xin Yu kept his head down, looking at the phone, following the navigation's guidance. As he walked, he didn't notice the surrounding scenery becoming increasingly strange. The once common pedestrians grew fewer and fewer. The previously clear view began to blur intensely, as if covered by a layer of fog, until finally, everything around him beca completely indistinct, like the world seen by a nearsighted person without glasses.
[You have arrived at your destination. This navigation session has ended. Welco back next ti.]
"Eh... Arrived?"
Xin Yu tore his gaze away from the phone and finally looked up ahead. He froze again. Before him sat a young girl on a patch of grass, eating instant noodles.
The girl, with long white hair and eyes as brilliant as rainbows, stopped eating her noodles, her gaze also fixed blankly on Xin Yu, who had suddenly appeared nearby without her noticing.
Xin Yu looked around. When he saw the infinitely high starry cosmos above his head and the deep blue planet standing behind him, he suddenly realized.
"Huh? Where did this navigation bring ? Is this still Earth?"
From his chaotic past mories, Xin Yu understood that in this situation, he might have arrived on the Moon.
Thinking of this, he looked again at the girl frozen there, who had been eating instant noodles.
"Recording the precious footage of a Moon person eating."
Xin Yu used his phone to capture the precious scene before him. He didn't know why he felt the urge to do this, why such a playful thought would arise in this situation. His past self must have been quite a prankster.
Yet, such a person with seemingly good self-regulation skills had chosen suicide... Just how hopeless must this world be for him to make such a choice?
"Who are you?"
Kiana chewed and swallowed the noodles in her mouth, then looked strangely at the bewildered Xin Yu standing there. From her perspective, she was enjoying so secretly stashed instant noodles, savoring a taste she hadn't had in a long ti, when a boy inexplicably appeared beside her. She hadn't detected any spatial fluctuations or Honkai energy reactions whatsoever; it was as if he had sprouted from the ground.
"I... don't know. I got lost earlier. While using my phone to navigate ho, sohow... I was brought here..."
Xin Yu looked completely baffled. He was navigating ho, how did he inexplicably end up on the Moon? By the way, can you actually navigate from Earth to the Moon?
And even if you could, how did he manage to walk here on his own two feet?
"Huh? Navigation?"
Kiana was also quite baffled. She didn't quite understand what was going on with this boy.
"Yeah, I was originally in Nagazora City, supposed to go to school. But my phone died halfway, and I got lost. Then, while I was lost, my phone suddenly regained power, and a navigation app started guiding . After walking for a while, I sohow ended up here."
"Nagazora City!"
Kiana was extrely surprised. Had the reconstruction of Nagazora City progressed that quickly? To the point where an ordinary person with low Honkai energy adaptability and resistance could live there normally, and even the schools had reopened.
"Yes, you know it?"
Xin Yu noticed that this suspected extraterrestrial life form, this Moon person, seed to know where he had been previously. Although he still hadn't figured out what was going on, nor why he could breathe in a vacuum, getting so answers first was key.
"Mm... Of course, I know it."
Kiana's eyes held a complex expression. After all, that place was, for her, where everything began.
"That's great! Then you must know Qian Yu Academy too, right? I'm a student heading there..."
"Qian Yu Academy? Has the reconstruction been that fast? Even that school has reopened?"
Kiana felt surprised once again. Her communication link with Earth hadn't been severed for that long, had it? Why did she suddenly feel like she'd been cut off for over a decade?
"Reconstruction? Was there one?"
Xin Yu looked puzzled. He had looked up so information about the school on his phone, and there seed to be no ntion of recent reconstruction work.
"..."
Kiana sensed sothing wasn't right.
"Do you know what year and month it is?"
"Oh, October 5th, 2013. I just checked the ti earlier, shouldn't be wrong... Why do you look so strange?"
Xin Yu looked at the shock revealed on Kiana's face, not understanding why she was so surprised when he simply stated the ti.
"2013... 2013..."
Kiana looked at the bewildered Xin Yu, guessing inwardly: could he have arrived in this world from so World Bubble?
But why did sothing still feel off?
Xin Yu looked at this Moon person who had suddenly zoned out. He shifted his gaze to the surroundings. Although this was the Moon, unlike the desolate place rembered from his fragnted knowledge, there were buildings created by civilization here. And these buildings looked filled with a sense of high technology; even the place he was standing was a patch of grass.
Definitely aliens, he thought. Possessing black technology beyond human comprehension.
But why do aliens look so much like humans? Could it be that humans in this world are actually extraterrestrial immigrants to Earth...
Due to his fragnted and chaotic mories, Xin Yu often made strange associations.
Right now, an image flashed through his mind: an old man with a strange hairstyle drooling, driving a flying saucer around with a young boy. The next second, another scene appeared: soone in white, fully enclosed armor dueling a black man holding a lightsaber.
Chaotic, incomprehensible.
