"Hey? Don't say that, Eden. Your singing can still soothe my soul. Really!"
"Haha, thank you for saying that, Ellie."
"But I've already realized that the starlight I once shone on the stage can no longer dispel the haze in people's eyes. It can no longer even shine in their eyes."
Alicia remained silent. After a long while, Eden's voice rang out again.
"Ellie, I have a request."
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"This may sound a bit abrupt, but it's the result of my careful consideration."
Eden took a deep breath, as if he were about to step onto an unfamiliar stage.
Then, she smiled calmly at Alicia—
"Please let me undergo the super-transformation surgery."

Chapter 160 The Oppressive Force of the Tenth Herrscher! [Please Subscribe!!!]
Watching the Fire Moth in the scene, growing increasingly tense due to the Ninth Honkai Impact.
Countless extraordinary individuals outside the screen also felt the increasing pressure from the Honkai.
Even Eden, a superstar, sensed the tense atmosphere within the Firemoth and volunteered to join the plan!
The team members are going out on missions more frequently.
But fewer and fewer people are coming back.
This also confirms that the collapse is rapidly intensifying!
Even...
It's suffocating!
Meanwhile, inside the base of the Fire-Chasing Moth.
This was accompanied by a conversation between Thousand Calamity's lieutenant and Erwin.
The news of the appearance of the Tenth Herrscher.
And finally, news came!
"For ordinary people, a mask is often a tool to conceal the truth and their true selves. But for Gan Jie, the mask represents his true feelings. Without the mask, he would find it difficult to express his emotions freely. Of course, these are just my personal opinions. Whether they are right or wrong, I don't want to change them."
"When he wears a mask of happiness, it is actually a dangerous sign that should raise alarm!"
"—You see, only battle brings him pleasure. When he puts on a mask to show shyness, it only means that the other masks have been destroyed in battle, and he has no choice but to use one at random. You must not think that he is really feeling shy and will be punished."
—Excerpt from "One Hundred Questions on the Mask of Destruction: From Beginner to Expert '767'"
"Hey, Imer, is what's on this post true or false? It looks pretty far-fetched."
"how could I know."
"You're the adjutant of the Thousand Calamities, Imer. And your tenure is nothing short of miraculous. Before you, there were more than twenty people in this position!"
"There's nothing wrong with that; it's just that those people couldn't keep going. Besides, he rarely takes me with him into battle. In fact, it's an easy job."
"You really have a positive outlook."
"So what exactly was that thing you showed me? You talked for so long, but it was all completely useless."
"Hey? Haven't you heard of this book, Imer? 'One Hundred Questions about the Thousand Masks: From Beginner to Expert,' it's quite popular in the base right now."
"So who wrote this? It can't possibly be useful."
"No, rather, much of what's written there is completely contrary to the facts."
"Hmm, I don't know who the author is either. The attribution is 'A girl as beautiful as flying flowers,' which is quite mysterious. Ah, wait a minute, there's new information."
""
"Let's talk another time, Imer. I have an urgent mission assigned to me."
"Urgent task?"
"Hmm, the Tenth Herrscher has appeared."
Suddenly!
Even through the screen.
The atmosphere in the chat group immediately became somber!
【walnut:!!!】
[Honkai Impact 3rd - Himeko: So fast?!]
Kiana: This...it's only been a few months??
[Black Tower: To be precise, it has been exactly six months since the end of the Ninth Honkai Impact 3rd.]
Ningguang: This is a bit much....
[March 7th: Only half a year has passed since the Ninth Honkai Impact, and many people haven't even recovered from the pain of losing loved ones...]
Silver Wolf: I'm feeling the pressure...
[Su Chang: Is this what Honkai Impact is...? It doesn't give people any time to breathe!]
[Himeko Hoshino: As time goes by, not only are the speed at which Herrschers descend increasing, but even routine emergency missions are probably becoming more and more difficult, right?]
[Ayaka Kamisato: The concentration of Honkai energy is likely increasing rapidly around the world!]
March 7th: The pressure has reached the moth that chases the flame...
Theresa: The Tenth Herrscher... I wonder how many more will be sacrificed this time...
Theresa: Damn it....
Einstein: The ultimate fate of previous civilizations... could not be changed...
And on the screen.
Information records about the Tenth Herrscher incident also slowly appeared.
It touched the hearts of every viewer.
[The Tenth Herrscher, L10-001, has appeared. L10-001 is a chef at a restaurant, and her abilities are close to those of the Fourth Herrscher, allowing her to become invisible by refracting light through the air.]
[L10-001 attempted to assassinate Dr. May while she was dining, but was discovered and immediately subdued by Kevin, who was accompanying her as a bodyguard (Dr. May had forbidden her from eating instant noodles and had dragged her to the restaurant).]
[Dr. Mei discovered a small Herrscher core in L10-001, with an energy level weaker than that of a normal Herrscher core.]
【3天后,L10-002~L10-016出现,15位新的第十律者出现在各个城市。】
[The book "One Hundred Questions about the Mask of a Thousand Calamities: From Beginner to Expert" has been published and has become a popular publication within the "Moth Chasing the Flame" group.]
[Ten days later, L10-017 to L10-108 appeared. The tenth Herrscher was distributed around the world, without any unified standard. They communicated information through [quantum entanglement] via the Herrscher core, which ignored spatial distance.]
The Tenth Herrscher will commit suicide upon capture to avoid leaking information.
[From L10-108 to L10-260 onwards, continuous attacks were launched against the research facilities related to the [Divine Key] and the [Herrscher Core].]
Dr. Mei has deciphered the mechanism of quantum entanglement between the Herrschers.
Individual L10-524 can be seen as strong evidence for this hypothesis.
He was originally an ordinary salesman.
However, they attacked the Firemoth's weapons manufacturing plant in the Rhine.
The location of this manufacturing plant has always been a secret; the only possibility is that L10-997 provided him with the information.
However, L10-997 never left headquarters, and its communications remained under surveillance.
[During the four months of continuous appearances by the Herrschers, they attacked numerous facilities of the Flame Chaser.]
[It simultaneously instigated riots and destruction in major cities, posing a threat no less significant than any previous Herrscher.]
They are numerous and their behavior exhibits a degree of organization and planning.
This is a major headache for humans who are used to dealing with individual Herrschers.
[Dr. Mei conducted a behavioral analysis of all the attacks and discovered!]
The goal of the Thousand Heralds has always been related to the research facilities for the Divine Keys.
[Or rather, it's related to other Herrscher cores in the Divine Key project.]
In order to eliminate the Tenth Herrscher in one fell swoop, Dr. Mei proposed to transfer the Herrscher cores from other research facilities to P21 on the island for centralized storage.
[During this time, Klein, the assistant to the director of the First Research Institute, became the Tenth Herrscher and suddenly attacked and assassinated the director, Möbius. When Sue, the head of the Fifth Science Department, who was assisting in the transfer, arrived, the Tenth Herrscher Klein had already been killed and devoured by Möbius, who had unconsciously entered the Collapse and resurrected.]
[Möbius himself was unaware of this and was focused on finding the person who killed the Tenth Herrscher, Klein.]
[Imer, the lieutenant of the Thousand Calamities, becomes the tenth Herrscher, L10-461. L10-461, using a portion of the Herrscher of Death's abilities, is repeatedly captured, killed, and resurrected to continue the attacks. He is imprisoned in the Fifth Science Department.]
"Yes, Hua. We have indeed killed him hundreds of times."
"But, unlike the other individuals of the Tenth Herrscher, he never seemed to have any intention of ending his own life."
The footsteps in the corridor overlapped with an astonishing harmony, making it difficult to tell that two people were walking at the same time.
"You stopped him, so I wanted you to come and see for yourself."
"L10-461, right?"
"If I remember correctly, he possesses only a small portion of the Herrscher of Death's abilities, and they have been extremely weakened."
"Even so, we still couldn't kill him. Perhaps that says something."
"Have you confirmed his identity, Su?"
"Yes, your impression is correct. He is indeed a member of the Firemoth—Imer, the lieutenant of the Ravage."
The footsteps stopped, and the girl remained silent for a long time.
Another Herald, another familiar name.
Will she make the same choice as him?
she does not know.
"We've arrived, Hua."
"Let me do it; the permissions here are a bit different."
The heavy metal door slowly opened.
Upon seeing the scene behind the door, both of them paused involuntarily, their movements and breathing halting for a moment.
The door that was just opened is now the only thing remaining in this underground prison.
Everything else has vanished, except for a pitch-black tunnel that leads nowhere.
"Was it Qian Jie who took him away? Or..."
""
"You stay here, Sue. I'll go find a way to stop him."
"But Hua, what if Gan Jie really took him away?"
"I believe this matter has nothing to do with Qianjie."
"But I hope he never finds out about it."
"So, Su, please stay in the base and don't let Gan Jie discover anything unusual. I'll be back soon."
[When Su, the Minister of the Fifth Science Department, was handing over the prison to soldier Hua, he discovered that L10-461 had escaped. Hua's attempt to capture L10-461 failed.]
off screen.
Upon seeing this record, Fu Hua clenched her fist slightly.
Imre to her.
They were not strangers.
Instead, they were teammates who had fought side by side with each other in the Third Honkai Impact 3rd campaign.
She knew Imre.
