"Sigh...you guys..."
Himeko looked at her students with a bit of a headache. Was the problem now about making dumplings?
"Pfft..."
Seeing Himeko's troubled expression, Mei couldn't help but laugh out loud, then smiled at the helpless Himeko and said:
"Don't worry, Himeko-sensei, we've remembered everything and will definitely implement the plan meticulously."
"If we encounter any danger, I will bring everyone back immediately."
Ying assured Himeko.
She has already left the location coordinates on the Hyperion. Although she is not very proficient in remote teleportation, she can still send everyone back to the Hyperion safely!
"Wendy will protect everyone too!"
"Bronya will help everyone keep their mouths shut and try not to make any promises they shouldn't keep."
Even Bronya spoke with the same seriousness.
"Well, now that you have reliable forces, I can't say much more about the battle. But after all, the opponent is a Judgment-class Honkai Beast. If you encounter danger, don't fight head-on. Your safety is more important than the mission, understand?"
"Don't worry, Himeko-sensei! We will!"
Ying nodded seriously.
at the same time.
Siberian Plain
In the middle of a clear lake, a colossal dragon lies silent.
"Queen...my lord?"
Sensing the ever-approaching power, the dragon slowly opened its eyes.
"..."
“It’s me, Bella…”
The ethereal voice echoed in the dragon's mind.
"!!!"
In an instant! The dragon's eyes widened suddenly! It listened in disbelief to the familiar voice in its mind.
“Bella, I will come to find you, and then…”
"May you live happily ever after with my blessings..."
Chapter 125 The Crisis of Security
Autumn in Siberia is different from autumn in other regions. At least while most parts of the Northern Hemisphere are enjoying clear skies and crisp autumn air, winter is already faintly in sight here.
As the Hyperion ventured deeper into the sky, its pristine white hull gradually broke through the clouds and descended. From high above, a snow-covered plain, so different from the outside world, appeared before everyone's eyes as if they had entered another season.
This snowfield was not formed by a natural phenomenon, but only appeared recently.
The real culprit behind the formation of this snowfield is, of course, a giant dragon hidden deep within the Siberian plains.
Her awakening caused Honkai energy to accumulate, thus affecting the surrounding climate.
Extreme weather... is only a small part of its impact when it awakens.
"We've arrived. The task of venturing deeper into the snowfield is now in your hands."
Eight thousand meters above the ground, Himeko nodded slightly to the Herrscher team, who were already fully prepared for battle.
According to data records from the second Honkai Impact 3rd, if the Hyperion continues forward, it will enter the dragon's "warning zone." Although the current situation of Bellenas is unclear, for safety reasons, the Hyperion will remain in the safe zone and provide possible remote assistance to the mission team.
"From now on, I'll leave it to you!"
"Don't worry, Himeko-sensei, we will definitely complete the mission."
Ying nodded gently to Himeko, and then led everyone toward the stern of the Hyperion.
Next, they will conduct an airdrop operation.
Of course... the kind without a parachute!
[Close hatch safety lock, manually open hatch!]
[Signal good, awaiting the Valkyrie... no, awaiting the Herrscher squad to take position!]
"Seriously, can't we just get on and off the ship from the bridge? Why do we need to open a separate hatch?"
Looking at the hatch that was about to open, Wendy asked, slightly puzzled.
"Perhaps, this is some kind of ritual passed down through generations?"
Mei smiled gently, her eyes filled with nostalgia.
The last time I went on a mission was when I went with Kiana to retrieve the Moon Throne...
"The only thing I can think of is some reckless person who cut off the communication channel before the countdown was even finished and jumped down himself."
As if she had thought of something, Bronya slowly shook her head and muttered a complaint.
"It seems Kiana has done quite a few reckless things in the past."
Ying instantly guessed who the clumsy person Bronya was talking about was, and then said with some emotion.
I never expected that Kiana, who seemed so serious and reliable in the group, would be so eccentric in the past. It's really unexpected.
"Hehe, she's done quite a few things that have given us a headache. Jumping out of the plane without following orders is just the least of her worries."
Himeko's slightly amused voice came through the communication channel.
"So, are you ready?"
"Of course!"
"Therefore, I hereby declare the Herrscher Squad's first reconnaissance mission commence!"
With Himeko's command, the hatch in front of them slowly opened, and a strong gust of wind rushed in through the hatch, but Wendy blocked it with a wave of her hand.
"Your first mission objective will be a precise landing, and that task will be entrusted to you, Wendy!"
"Don't worry, Himeko-sensei!"
Wendy nodded seriously, then manipulated the air currents in the high altitude to make them less intense, creating an 'airway' entirely built with her powers for the people who were parachuting in.
"set off!"
At Himeko's command, the four of them leaped downwards together...
Four figures, aided by the wind, swooped down at high speed as if there were no resistance. The clouds parted to make way for them, and the gale became their wings...
……
"Your Excellency, they have set off."
"Hmm, Amber, don't you have anything you want to ask me?"
Otto shifted his gaze from the screen to the serene amber.
“Amber will only obey His Excellency the Bishop’s decisions.”
Amber simply shook her head at Otto's question, offering no further comment.
"You..."
Upon hearing this, Otto smiled and shook his head.
"If I were in their shoes, I would definitely have some doubts about letting a few children who have mastered the most dangerous power in the world handle a childish matter."
"But now, they lack so much. Birds that have never touched the sky are like boats on dry land, accomplishing nothing, no matter how full their wings are."
"To be honest, I also look forward to the day when they can soar on their own and break through the sun in the sky, but before that, someone must guide them on how to fly correctly, whether it's against the wind or against the wind, it's better than letting their wings wither in the nest."
"This time, the wind will obey them, but afterwards..."
"Can you remain calm in the face of the approaching storm?"
"Your Majesty the Bishop..."
Amber seemed hesitant about Otto's words.
She understood the bishop's thoughts, but...
Isn't the "crisis" you've planned a little too "safe"?
Looking at the densely packed documents on Otto's desk, Amber's lips twitched slightly.
Most of those were mobilization orders for the Destiny Fleet, as well as specific data recently obtained by the [Fourth Divine Key].
You even scheduled their deployment in a period where the Honkai energy reaction was relatively stable, and you secretly placed that "old friend" who should have been at home making dumplings next to Durandal...
This is way too easy!
While acting cautiously is certainly a good thing, ... if we're this cautious, what if Anti-Entropy uses this opportunity to launch a sneak attack...?
Oh, so Anti-Entropy is also providing full support for this operation. That's fine then...
Sigh... What a mess this is.
I have a feeling that one night, the bishop and the leader of the anti-entropy alliance seemed to have discovered something. The world's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing both the overall structure and the overall situation) is changing, and the source of this change is...
All because of a traveler from another world.
……
"So, is it really necessary for us to come here?"
In Siberia, [Raven] tightened its cloak, looking at [Grey Snake] with a puzzled expression.
"..."
"The Lord said that since both Heavenly Mandate and Anti-Entropy have arrived, we should also express our attitude in a slight way."
The gray snake paused for a moment before speaking.
"Then why don't you do it yourself? Why are you dragging me along?"
"Raven..." Natasha's eyes instantly reddened upon hearing this, and she shouted at the guy with a reproachful look on her face.
"Five times the salary during business trips."
