Meanwhile, Durandal and his team were doing an incredibly successful job of reclaiming Earth.
Next, they will be greeted by the final "boss"—Kevin.
The game's perspective shifts.
Kiana and her two companions have returned to St. Freya Academy in their original world.
At this moment, everyone gathered together to prepare for the final battle.
·· ·····Requesting flowers··· ······
According to Changguang and his team's observations, the next two hours were a very rare period of spatial stability.
This is also the best time to have a final showdown with Kevin.
The choice of who would face Kevin naturally fell to Kiana, Bronya, and Mei.
Although Kiana is indeed the Herrscher of the End.
However, as mentioned earlier, Kiana is not the only one to bear the burden of this "artificial end".
Therefore, only by working together can the three of them be equal to Kevin's ultimate power.
"Is everyone ready?"
Kiana nodded: "We are ready to bring the best ending for everyone to this world."
Fu Hua: "...Kevin, he's probably also waiting for us, through a long period of time, through endless torment, he's been hoping for our answer."
Mei: "Yes, we will give a fact-based answer, whether it's him or those names that have been buried by history..."
0 .. ....
"...I hope our answer will bring a smile of satisfaction to their faces."
Tesla: "It all comes down to you! It's all up to you!"
"Then...shall we set off?"
"Yes, Bronya will construct a Stargate here to teleport us back to New Atlantis, and then—"
Just then, a gentle female voice suddenly rang out.
"Please wait a moment~"
Ai-Ei Hyperion's figure suddenly appeared.
"Great, it seems we made it just in time."
Among those present, some knew her, and some did not.
Therefore, she first gave a brief self-introduction, and then stated the purpose of her visit.
"Finally, I have a gift for you all. If you don't mind, would you like to accept it?"
"Huh??" Bronya and the others were full of questions.
Even though they weren't very familiar with each other, why did she...?
Upon seeing this, Ai Yi smiled gently.
"Why did I suddenly appear here? Why did I choose to help you? Or... why must I stand on the side of humanity when I am clearly more like a dream?"
"To be honest, this was all my own willfulness."
"Within the [Simulated Time Crystal], I witnessed everything about you, seeing all your past and future."
"Although it is indeed a one-sided feeling... without realizing it, I have come to regard myself as your partner."
"So, as this story is nearing its end, I want to join it and be a part of your journey."
"Everything I've done stems from this simple idea."
As Ai Yi finished speaking, the game screen suddenly went black.
"[You who exist in another dimension]..."
"...There must be others who think that way, right?"
……
At this moment, the live chat exploded again.
With the previous explanations, players understood almost instantly.
The two sentences Ai said after the screen went black—the "you" she referred to—were they referring to the players in front of the screen? (Ten thousand.)
Chapter 647 This unprecedented move moved countless players.
In this world, Honkai Impact 3rd players do not have the title of "Captain".
In the game, Himeko is always the captain of the Hyperion, not the player.
There is no character named "The Cleaner Who Does Splits in the Air" in either the main storyline or the event storyline.
The players have always played the role of pure players, witnesses to a story.
While they were moved by the story, and felt sorry for Himeko's death and the collapse of "Paradise After Life," all they could do was hurl insults at Otto online.
Throughout countless days and nights, many players have fantasized about how wonderful it would be if they could travel into the game, help the Valkyries beat up Otto's dog head, and make up for all the regrets in the game.
Let this imperfect story... truly become perfect.
However, fantasy is still just fantasy.
In reality, they can't interfere with the story's progress in the game, and can only rage in vain.
but now……
After Ai Hyperion appeared, and she said that she had already unilaterally identified herself as Kiana and the others' comrade...
When she said that she wanted to join the story at the end and to be an ally to Kiana and the others.
Countless players have already begun to empathize with this.
They also longed to enter that two-dimensional world, lend a hand to the girls, and make the story even more perfect.
……
"[You who exist in another dimension]..."
"...There must be others who think that way, right?"
……
As soon as Ai said this, the live chat exploded.
I want to... I want to so much!
Even though they knew that Ai wouldn't see their comments, they still wanted to express their thoughts.
The live stream, which had millions of viewers, suddenly experienced a slight buffering issue.
In the game.
Bronya tilted her head in confusion at Ai's inexplicable remark: "Who... were you talking to just now?"
Seeing Ya Ya's puzzled expression, the mechanical lifeform named Ai-i Hyperion revealed a gentle smile.
"Since I will witness your stories countless times in the future, I hope that at this moment, you will also listen to me tell a story—"
"Once upon a time, there was a lonely girl..."
The girl lived aimlessly, not knowing what she wanted or what kind of person she would become.
"She wandered the world like this... meeting many people and experiencing many partings."
"The girl kept growing... She did many things, foolish things, and hurt some people; but she also did many more right things, smart things, and saved even more people."
"She accepted everyone's love, she endured everyone's hatred; many people loved her, and even she herself hated her."
……
After listening for a while, Kiana scratched her head: "Why does it feel like... what you're saying..."
"Is this really not telling our story?" Mei also felt a little strange.
"If you insist on putting it that way, then this is your story, but..." Ai smiled slightly, "it's also the story of millions of other people."
"I don't care who the protagonist of this story is... because it could be your story, my story, or a story belonging to many people."
"After all... I'm just an existence drifting through endless cycles of [versions], collecting stories for people on the other side of the dimension."
"But just like you faced the Stigmata Project... the story itself also possesses power."
They are happy because of the joy in the story, and sad because of the sorrow in the story.
These feelings, like drops of water, converged into streams and eventually into a vast ocean.
"And thus...ripples appeared within the story itself."
As Ai said this, she suddenly reached out and pointed forward, and a panel suddenly appeared in front of the girls.
"What is this...?" Kiana looked at the virtual screen in front of her, puzzled.
This screen... it looks so much like an online game page.
