Finally, it was Durandal who invited Kevin to sit down and talk.
During the conversation, both sides affirmed each other's abilities but also expressed that they would not hesitate to kill each other in the final battle.
This conversation was Kevin's last conversation with someone as a "human".
This was an unexpected gift for Kevin.
After that, he became... [the final collapse].
……
the other side.
The results of the dream interpretation team were very satisfactory.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of Theresa and the other Valkyries, the dream complex constructed by the [Stigmata Project] has begun to show signs of loosening.
But before everyone could rejoice for long, they discovered another anomaly—the [Power of the End] controlled by Kevin was spontaneously using the dreams of Honkai Beasts to continuously repair the [Dream Collection].
Just as everyone was frowning in worry, Rita had a bold idea—
Using the power of the Durandal Holy Sword, cut off Kevin's shadow, and then use Theresa's Vishnu to devour the [Honkai Beast Remnant Dream] within it.
Upon hearing Rita's "ingenious idea," Dr. Tesla and others immediately made the decision.
This crucial responsibility of "cutting shadows" was entrusted to Fu Hua, Durandal, and the great Herrscher of Knowledge.
The plan is divided into several steps.
First, find Shi Bao and ask her for help. Use her power as the Herrscher of Knowledge to drag Kevin into the illusion created by Shi Bao and hold him back.
Next, Durandal, who did not wield the Holy Sword, attracted Kevin's attention.
Fu Hua then transformed into the Garuda form of "Man-Made Collapse" and used the Holy Sword to cut off her shadow.
Finally, Theresa also initiated a deliberate collapse, devouring these [Honkai Beast Remnants].
……
The plot has finally reached its climax.
However, the audience was initially unaware of the specific plans.
Because this part of the story is described in reverse chronological order.
The story begins with a scene of Mount Taixu.
Li Sushang came here in search of the great Lady of Knowledge.
"Hello, Herrscher of Knowledge." Li Sushang from Honkai Impact 3rd was very polite, and the first thing she did upon meeting was to clasp her hands in a greeting.
Shi Bao clearly didn't like her, and only glanced at her before ignoring her.
"...What? You're not welcoming me?"
"Ha~ Why should I welcome you? This isn't my home, and it's not your home."
“But it’s my great-grandfather’s house, and someone told me…”
Before Li Sushang could finish speaking, Shi Bao waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, let's have a fight first."
It seems that Shibao is somewhat helpless.
Her helplessness is actually quite normal, after all, the [Stigmata Project] has almost no impact on her, and she can still leisurely do whatever she wants.
And when Li Sushang suddenly came to see her... it was obvious that she must have some trouble that she needed her help with again.
The thought of having to work overtime again is bound to make Shi Bao happy.
If you're unhappy, just have a fight first.
"What? You've been around the world before, haven't you seen this before?"
Li Sushang was filled with doubt: "But even in the martial arts world, there needs to be a 'just cause' for fighting."
"I am the Herald of Consciousness, and I already know what you're trying to say—understand?"
Alright, Li Sushang immediately understood.
"Since you've put it that way, I certainly won't hold back."
"—Li Sushang, the eldest disciple of the Supreme Freedom Sect, please enlighten me."
This fight scene was not animated; instead, it was presented in a game-like combat format.
However, on this ancient and charming Mount Taixu, the duel between the two heroes, coupled with the rapid and murderous sound of the pipa being plucked, made Qingque's blood boil.
Just like the battle between Li Sushang and Fu Hua back then.
This kind of battle, full of the romantic and chivalrous spirit of the Chinese nation, always brings a different kind of passion to Chinese players.
This marks the beginning of the climax of the story.
.......
Chapter 641 The Great... Lady of the Divine Key
Both of their skills have a strong ink painting style.
The scenery of [Mount Taixu] can be described as poetic and picturesque, and the game's background music is full of chivalry.
This wasn't a life-or-death battle, but Qingque still played with great excitement.
During the battle, it was evident from the conversation between Shi Bao and Li Sushang that she had no good feelings towards the traitor's descendant or his master.
"Heh, I'd like to see just how much of Cheng Ling Shuang's skill you actually possess!"
“I fought with my master once, but in the end, there was no clear winner,” Li Sushang said quite frankly. However, her answer only made Shi Bao’s tone more sarcastic.
"Huh?? So this family's tradition of betraying one's master and ancestors... can be hereditary?"
Even in the face of this aggressive tone, Li Sushang remained completely calm, simply explaining lightly:
"No, I was possessed by a demon at that time—my master was forced to fight me to save me."
"Tsk...Alright, alright, alright, let's fight properly! I can't stand hearing these stomach-churning stories."
"Uh...you were the one who brought up my master first."
……
This conversation between the two reminded players of "Shenzhou Zhejianlu," a game that hasn't been updated in a long time.
In this world, Mo Li is the author of "The Legend of the Broken Sword of Shenzhou," a side story updated from the game, not a comic.
If Shi Bao and Li Sushang hadn't brought it up at this moment, the players would have almost forgotten about this story.
Therefore, the screen was filled with questions in the comments section about when "The Legend of the Broken Sword" would be updated.
After all, the series is almost over, and the plot hole about the seven disciples killing their master still hasn't been filled...
However, Tingyun and Qingque could not answer these questions, so they were ultimately ignored by the two of them.
……
In the game, after the fight, Li Sushang expressed her desire to ask Shibao for help.
After a token complaint and a moment of arrogance, Shi Bao agreed to the protagonist group's request.
The destruction of the world is none of my business, but if an old relic needs help, I'm willing to take on the trouble...
[This is actually pretty good to ship, hehe...]
Taking all sorts of supplements will only harm you.
Fu Hua: You're such a good child, Mom!
[Indeed, naivety counters arrogance; look at Seele and Black Seele, Fu Hua and Shi Bao (laughs)]
Why doesn't Sirin favor Kiana?
That's because Sirin isn't tsundere, she's a pufferfish (laughs)
……
The chat was lively, but the game was progressing at a breakneck pace.
After Shi Bao agreed to help, the scene immediately shifted to Kevin.
Shi Bao used her [Herrscher of Knowledge] ability to pull Kevin into an illusion, but Kevin quickly noticed the anomaly.
"Come forth, Herrscher of Knowledge..."
All I can say is that he truly lives up to his reputation as the venerable Kevin.
However, although he saw through the illusion of the treasure, he was still within the illusion.
This was also part of Dr. Tesla's plan, with the aim of stalling Kevin.
The scene quickly changed, transforming into a "Sword Tomb" composed of countless giant swords and broken swords.
This scene is exactly the same as the scene when Kiana fought against the Herrscher of Knowledge.
Shi Bao stood gracefully atop a giant sword, like a hermit master, quietly watching Kevin.
"Heh~ As expected of you. Even though I did my best to mobilize the Honkai Beasts' dreams to counterattack the source of [Chimera]... it only made you take a few extra steps."
