"Alright! Everyone! Welco to Little Gui's livestream!"
"As a ten-year veteran fan of Yu Ling, we're among the first to experience Yu Ling's new work — "Honkai Impact 3rd"!"
"Hehe… the ga's icon is a cute girl."
"If I'm not mistaken, "Honkai Impact 3rd" is also a positive, healthy, and uplifting ga!"
Little Gui's eyes sparkled.
She was brimming with excitent!
Honkai Impact 3rd,
Launch!
As the account logged in.
It seed like she was continuously ascending within the elevator module.
Amidst the sound of alarms.
The hatch opened.
Marking the official entry into the ga.
"Hmm..."
"Little Gui did her howork in advance!"
"According to the content released by Yu Ling."
"In the world of the ga, a disaster called Honkai occurred. To deal with it, the organization Schicksal injected Honkai Energy into girls, granting them imnse power and turning them into Valkyries!"
...
"So, Honkai is actually a disaster?"
"It's a bit like the Glamoth Iron Cavalry! They also turned a group of girls into weapons of war to fight against The Swarm."
"I bet Honkai has sothing to do with Nanook! I'll wager 500,000 Credits on it!"
"Valkyries? That sounds really cool!"
"Why have I never heard of this world?"
"Has this world not yet connected to interstellar communications?"
"Got it! We need to Trailblaze this world!"
...
At that mont.
A girl with braided hair appeared in the fra!
She opened her eyes.
Her blue eyes looked exceptionally clear.
After putting on her goggles.
She flashed a confident smile.
Rubbing her hands together.
She was ready to take action!
...
Astral Express.
"Uncle Yang, look, look!"
"Yu Ling just released a new ga!"
"Little Gui is already live-streaming it. Let's see what's so captivating about this new ga!"
Old Yang chuckled.
Took a sip of tea.
And remarked, "I didn't expect Yu Ling to have the energy to develop a second ga."
"'Honkai: Star Rail' is already comprehensive enough to encompass the universe and showcase the world."
"The new ga is probably just to support 'Star Rail' or to flesh out so of the lore."
Hiko said, "We can't judge Yu Ling from a mortal's perspective."
"In fact, I think Yu Ling could easily make 'Honkai: Star Rail' the main ga and release so side gas."
"Many of the characters currently introduced have stories worth exploring..."
March 7th wholeheartedly agreed!
She imdiately chid in!
"For example: 'Chronicles of Izumo,' 'Legends of the High-Cloud Quintet,' 'Stellaron Hunters Side Story'!"
Dan Heng, for once, agreed with March 7th.
He nodded and said, "If we could revisit those events from Imbibitor Lunae's perspective, I'd definitely try it out as soon as possible."
"After all, the developer is Yu Ling. This way, I could understand what was going through Dan Feng's mind back then."
Stelle, with her hands on her hips, said, "After all this talk, shouldn't we actually check out this new ga?"
"We might miss the opening lore!"
"Right, right!"
March 7th and Stelle imdiately got busy.
Preparing tea and snacks.
Old Yang chuckled.
It was heartwarming to see the young ones so full of energy.
To prevent Hiko from making coffee.
Old Yang brewed a cup of tea in advance.
Fortunately,
Hiko wasn't in the mood to make coffee at the mont.
Instead, she was busy familiarizing herself with the lore of the ga Yu Ling had released.
"By the way,"
"What's the new ga called?"
Old Yang asked casually.
"It's called... Honkai Impact 3rd."
Hearing this na.
Old Yang's expression instantly changed!
When 'Honkai: Star Rail' was released, he had already felt a bit uneasy!
The prefix "Honkai"
Made his hair stand on end!
But as the story progressed, nothing related to "Honkai" appeared in the universe.
So Old Yang had rationalized it to himself.
The addition of the "Honkai" prefix to Yu Ling's na wasn't ant to signify anything specific. Rather, it served as an adjective implying "chaos" and "subversion." Later plot developnts aligned with this notion. Exposing major factions and encompassing significant events across the universe within the ga, it indeed caused a "collapse" in the worldview of many players!
However!
This second ga!
Was directly nad Honkai Impact 3rd!
How to explain this!
It could have been nad anything else.
Yet it was specifically nad with these two characters!
Yang sensed sothing was amiss!
He could no longer remain calm!
At that mont!
March 7th and Stelle arrived with the prepared items.
They opened the live broadcast interface.
Little Gui's voice imdiately ca through!
"This must be where our protagonist makes her entrance!"
"Her na is Kiana!"
"She looks like a pretty cheerful young girl~"
Little Gui comnted while trying to operate the controls herself.
...
"Why isn't it turn-based anymore!"
"I've been a fan of turn-based gas for ten years, Yu Ling, what are you doing!"
"It looks pretty simple, with only attack and dodge options, similar to most action gas I've played."
"Yu Ling isn't like those folks at the Intelligentsia Guild, stacking complex chanics... The gas he develops are ant to be accessible to the majority of us, and of course, the most important thing is the ga's story!"
"I dare say, the story of this world is absolutely extraordinary!"
"Of course, Yu Ling loves to go big! If it were just about the survival of an ordinary planet, he wouldn't even bother!"
"Go for it, Little Gui! Push the story forward!"
...
"Kiana!?"
The mont he heard this na,
Yang's eyes widened instantly!
He imdiately stood up from his seat!
With a mix of surprise and disbelief, he looked at the screen!
"NekoCharm"
The girl shouted.
Activating her ultimate move.
Between her moves,
Giant cat paws appeared.
And the enemies sent flying into the air...
Were none other than!
Honkai Beasts!
Yang's heart skipped a beat!
Indeed!
It really was!
It was Kiana!
It was his holand!
Yu Ling had actually turned all of this into a ga!
A sense of absurdity and surrealism washed over him.
This ti,
It wasn't the Honkai chasing from behind,
But rather, it had co knocking directly!
No pretense, no acting!
In a daze.
Yang seed to see Hiko brewing two cups of coffee.
.
He handed one of the cups to Stelle.
"Ding!"
He added another sugar cube to her cup.
Smiling, he said, "This is the last one."
"Boom!!!!"
Old Yang suddenly felt the world spinning around him.
The teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a "clatter"!
"Welt?"
"Ahhh, Uncle Yang, what's wrong with you!!"
