Chapter 56: Super Invincible and Crazy Cute Little Senti!
The updated content of Honkai Impact 3rd once again dominated every major gaming forum and social media platform. Some "Supreme Liver Emperors" had managed to grind through all the main story and side stories of the launch version within a few days. Just as they were about to complain that there wasn't enough to do, the new update arrived, sparking another frenzy among the hardcore grinders!
As a legendary "Liver Emperor" among emperors, Fu Hua naturally turned on her computer early in the morning. After downloading the update, she eagerly launched Honkai Impact 3rd! Upon entering the game, she immediately checked the update notice.
This update added Chapters 5 and 6 to the main story. Furthermore, the Honkai Chronicles added the Silver Wolf-related [Dilemma Dream]and Theresa's [Everlasting Memory]! New battlesuits joined the fray: Theresa's [Violet Executer], [Valkyrie Pledge], and [Celestial Hymn]! Bronya's Soul-Awakened character [Silver Wolf of the Urals]and the Black Duck... no, [Black Nucleus], also entered the roster. Additionally, Fu Hua's own [Valkyrie Accipiter]and [Shadow Knight: Moon]made their debut!
In this update, the Open World Sakura Samsara was not included. Consequently, the Yae Sakura battlesuits associated with it were also absent. Su Mu had adjusted the sequence, planning to introduce the story of Sakura Samsara and Kallen after Chapter 8. He felt that after players experienced Chapter 8, "Queen's Descent," it would be the perfect time to introduce the history between Otto, Kallen, and Yae Sakura. This would help players understand the root of Otto's villainous actions.
"Oh? I didn't expect it to be my turn to appear so soon..." Fu Hua was surprised to see [Valkyrie Accipiter]and [Shadow Knight: Moon]on the list of new characters. She tried them out in the trial stages and couldn't help but gasp in shock!
"Aren't these the moves of our Taixu Sect? The restoration is incredible!"
Inch Edge: Sky Shatter! Inch Edge: Mountain Breaker!
[Valkyrie Accipiter]had an unparalleled sense of control, allowing players to chain together several different move variations! Fu Hua fell in love with the character instantly. Then, the [Shadow Knight: Moon]armor brought an even bigger smile to her face. Once she gathered 60 SP, Moon descended from the sky, entering a Burst state and unleashing a frenzy of "Ora Ora" punches on the enemy! The blurring afterimages, the crackling lightning, and the visceral sense of impact made Fu Hua feel a surge of pure excitement!
"I didn't expect Student Kiana to put so much heart into my character. I really must thank her..."
In the game, Fu Hua was Kiana's Class Monitor, which mirrored their relationship in reality. Fu Hua was not only a member of the Golden Courtyard but also the famous Sect Leader of the Taixu Sect in Shenzhou, with many disciples and formidable martial arts skills. This was why Otto Apocalypse had hired her at a high price to serve as Theresa's dedicated bodyguard during the concert tour.
While a great hero serves the people and should view money as dirt... a whole sect has many mouths to feed. Fu Hua didn't mind the job; to her, it was just another place to practice. If she encountered enemies, she could hone her skills in actual combat. She could train anywhere, and the Taixu Sect was well-managed by her capable disciple, Cheng Lixue.
Her only worry was her underachieving grand-disciple, Li Sushang. Apparently, Sushang had gotten involved with a street performer who loved doing "hardcore" stunts and a certain streamer. The two of them, along with a frail-looking green-haired girl with deep dark circles under her eyes, often went on strange paranormal investigation livestreams.
Fu Hua shook her head, pushing those thoughts aside. The most important thing now was to enjoy Honkai Impact 3rd!
"So the combat design was done by Carole? That makes sense." Carole was also Fu Hua's junior. The lively girl had studied at the Taixu Sect for a while, believing that Taixu martial arts were amazing and would shine in game animation. Although she complained a lot during practice, Carole had stuck with it. However, because she started her training quite late, she only knew the basics—enough for game design, certainly.
Fu Hua didn't know that while Carole contributed, the bulk of the work came from Su Mu. It was Su Mu who provided the core combat prototypes, which Carole then refined and supplemented to create these two excellent characters. Fu Hua tried the other new Valkyries as well, and they were all well-designed, but she clearly favored her own two armors.
"They really put a lot of work into this. I'll have to thank Carole and the others in person next time..."
Fu Hua quickly played through the newest main story chapters, Chapters 5 and 6. In these chapters, Kiana follows Theresa into a virtual space, and the scene shifts to the battlefield of the Second Honkai Impact—Siberia! Kiana experiences the Siberian conflict firsthand, fighting alongside the younger Theresa, Siegfried, and her mother Cecilia against the Second Herrscher, Sirin.
"Sirin? I remember she's Student Kiana's younger sister?" Fu Hua felt it was a bit strange to cast her own sister as the antagonist.
Later, Kiana enters the Babylon Labs and learns the truth of her birth—she is not the original Kiana Kaslana, but a clone designated [K423]!
"?" As the plot unfolded, Fu Hua's eyes widened. They're going this far?
"Student Kiana is too ruthless to herself. Designing her own character as a clone?" "If Student Kiana is a clone in the game, then who is the real Kiana?"
Fu Hua sensed that this was a massive foreshadowing. She was about to continue playing when her door was suddenly kicked open!
"Old Timer! Old Timer! I called you so many times, why didn't you answer? I thought you'd kicked the bucket!"
A spirited girl who looked remarkably like Fu Hua burst into the room. If Su Mu were here, his jaw would have hit the floor.
Holy crap? The Herrscher of Sentience?!
