Honkai Impact 3rd: I picked up a Seele at the start of the game.

Chapter 69 Ruthless

……

They claimed to be discussing the script, but in the end they just sat together and chatted for a while. They hadn't figured out what to do next, only briefly discussing the issue of "guardianship," and then tacitly dropped the topic.

Because according to Mebius's wishes, she will most likely arrange for Seele to become Yun Fuyu's younger sister, and their interactions will definitely become strange...

so what?

……

The next day, just like in the dream, Yun Fuyu went to Mebius as promised to fulfill her promise (guardian + meeting Alicia).

Unlike the hallucination, Mebius had no time to deal with him, but still sent his loyal assistant Klein to handle the matter.

Klein handed over the various documents to Yun Fuyu with a blank expression, while saying that these things had been uploaded to the main network and Seele should have received the notification as well.

Then she added, "As for Alicia, the Doctor couldn't get through to her on the phone, but there's already a way to get her back. Just wait a little longer."

Yun Fuyu nodded in understanding, but couldn't help but think to herself: This is already 150,000 words long, does Alicia only live in other people's mouths and dreams?

With the matter settled, Yun Fuyu put away her documents and went to the training room to test her strength.

……

At the entrance to the training room, Hen stopped him in front of him, looking astonished: "You actually survived?"

Yun Fuyu looked annoyed, but nodded in agreement: "Yes, it really isn't easy."

This surgery was already extremely dangerous; if the genes collapsed, one could easily die on the spot. His gene fusion went awry, causing him to fall into hallucinations and almost endangering Seele and the Great Free Heaven. It was only thanks to Seele finding him immediately that he survived.

...However, in the hallucination, Alicia also played a significant role; it was she who helped Yun Fuyu find the suspicious points, and only then did he realize what was going on.

Alicia, what a mysterious girl.

Hen led Yun Fuyu into the training room and, as a senior, taught him how to quickly adapt to strength, find the balance point of strength, and how to test his abilities.

The process was too long to watch, but the result was that Yun Fuyu's Honkai energy adaptability actually improved slightly from yesterday, reaching 2130HW. In actual combat, it fought back and forth against the simulated Herrscher of Lightning and Herrscher of Wind, but ultimately lost. It was ambushed by the Herrscher of Ice and died on the spot. It fought a fierce battle against Seele's transformed Herrscher of Death at its peak, managing to hold its own for a few moves at first, but was later brutally defeated...

When Yun Fuyu walked out of the simulation training room, she was helped out by Hen.

He looked like he was questioning his life: "Boss Hen, logically speaking, your strength is already inferior to mine. Why was it that you, Kevin, and Seele fought back and forth, while I was brutally defeated by Seele?"

Before the fusion surgery, Hen's strength was already at most a 60/40 split with him. Back then, Hen and Kevin together decisively defeated the Herrscher of Death... Could it be that Seele unleashed a flood back then?

Hen mocked him: "Your question is enough to show how naive you are. First, before the fusion surgery, although you were strong, I was 99% confident that I could kill you in actual combat. Second, Kevin and I are old partners, and two against one is more than one plus one.

Yun Fuyu: "I don't believe it. I can see through all your moves. Although I can only react to about 80% of them, it's still a crushing victory."

Hen tossed him onto the sofa in the lounge and stretched the muscles in his right arm: "For example, when I faced the Herrscher of Thunder, that guy's power was beyond all our imagination. A casual wave of his hand had immense destructive power, and no one dared to get close."

Yun Fuyu: "I know that. The record says that you led the Third Squad to reduce the Herrscher's mobility to a point where they were unable to kill him. In the end, they used the Honkai Fission Bomb to resolve the situation."

Hen: "Then think about it, how did we manage to trap the Herrscher and restrict her mobility?"

"This one……"

Hen: "First, Honkai energy weapons. We are not unarmed mortals, nor are we beasts who do not know how to use tools. Honkai energy weapons can at least close the gap by half."

"It makes sense!"

Yun Fuyu's eyes lit up. So, the main reason why her performance in the simulation training was so mediocre was that she didn't have a suitable weapon?

Hen pointed to his shoulder and said, "Secondly, we are more ruthless than anyone else, even the Herrschers, in order to protect our home."

He spoke casually: "I feigned an opening, letting the Herrscher sever my right arm, the cut surface of the wound was charred by electricity. Smelling the aroma of that flesh, I plunged the bomb dagger in my left hand into the Herrscher's heart, and then exploded on the spot without hesitation."

"..."

Hen: "We have companions, but the Herrscher doesn't. After being severely injured at the same time, I was lucky that my team members came and took over my body, but the Herrscher could only lie dormant alone. It was at this time that the Fire Moth realized that there was no way to kill the Herrscher, and then it dropped the Honkai Fission Bullet."

"..."

Hen: "And you? In the simulation training, even knowing it was just a simulation, you were terrified of getting injured. You could only barely hold your own against the Third and Fourth Herrschers based on your strength. By the time of the Fifth Herrscher, you had already become complacent, which is why he was able to sneak up on you. As for the final Sixth Herrscher, I don't know what kind of feelings you have for Seele, or if you were even reluctant to take the initiative, then you could only be led by the nose by her, and you were brutally defeated throughout the entire battle."

After a long silence, Yun Fuyu nodded heavily.

Hen was right; he had indeed become too lax. He had been just as ruthless during the time he fought alongside Seele. But after Seele's crisis was resolved, the so-called victory over the Honkai seemed like just a game; victory and defeat didn't matter to him as much, which is why he relaxed.

But Hen's words did indeed calm his restless mind, at least making him more willing to devote more energy to thinking about how to defeat the Honkai.

Seeing that Yun Fuyu had taken his words to heart, Hen nodded in satisfaction and said, "Of course, there is another big reason why Kevin and I defeated the Herrscher of Death - Mebius gave Seele an injection to reduce Honkai energy, which is like poison to a Herrscher, leaving her with at most 80% of her strength. What you just faced was a Herrscher at her full strength."

Yun Fuyu was silent for a moment, then rolled her eyes angrily: "So all you said was because you increased the difficulty, right?!"

If he had a suitable weapon, and the enemy was only at 80% strength, Yun Fuyu could have turned the tables and given Seele a good beating in the simulation... cough, scratch that, a good beating of the Herrscher of Death!

Hen laughed heartily: "How can you say that? I'm teaching you very seriously!"

...Yeah, that's true.

Let's not argue with him; let's just show some respect to the senior.
