“So, am I dead?”
Feeling the faint phantom pain lingering in his body, he muttered to himself.
Rainy night, viaduct, black Mayba…
Oh well, it has nothing to do with a luxury black sedan.
After all, the street was anything but quiet when he died, there was no woman singing, and nobody was blocking the bridge with magical creatures.
In the final second before losing consciousness, all he heard was the horn of a hundred-ton king.
Turning his head, what came into view was a blue semi-trailer with its high beams on, overturned on the ground due to the slippery rainy road, roaring deafeningly while rolling towards him with a full load of steel coils, which almost scared him into leaking a few drops.
“Is that sweat? No, it’s mist. Just a hundred-ton king, how could an opponent like that make me sweat?”
He was simply on his way home from work, crushed into 2D along with his car by a semi-trailer on the viaduct.
Right, isn’t that right?
“No, why did you just run me over and kill me straight away?! You should have spawned a beautiful girl first to approach me and raise my favorability, have her occasionally send me gifts, have special interactions with me on special holidays, make her confess her feelings to me during some mysterious event in my heart, show me a special CG after I agree, and finally, right when I’m happiest, make her die right in front of me, and then force me to figure out a way to save her in another world! Why did you just come straight at me and kill me?! Novels are not like this at all, I refuse to accept this!”
What more can be said?
People like this are the hardest to scrape off the ground.
“…”
After acting crazy for a while, he finally calmed down.
It might be very difficult for others, but for him, it posed no challenge at all.
Easily keeping a straight face.
“Things have come to this, let’s first see what the current situation is.”
Sighing mentally one last time for himself who had been pressed into french fries, he finally began to look around his surroundings.
Within his field of vision, everywhere was filled with profound darkness and twinkling stars, resembling the depths of outer space.
Yet beneath his feet, there existed a foothold resembling the surface of a lake; when gently stepped upon, the seemingly empty ground would ripple and send out circles of waves.
Being in the universe while stepping on the void, this was probably what such a scene looked like.
Casting his gaze into the distance, he could only see irregular fragments of various colors floating in mid-air, carrying colorful geometric shapes up and down, obscuring the scenery further away.
“It looks really eerie; maybe this place is actually the netherworld.”
Then who is going to make up for his missing ancient-style Jiahao and animal friends with forks for him?
Scanning the surroundings, which weren’t just messy but also looked completely baffling, he decided to give full play to his imagination.
“Could it be?!”
Having read countless books during his lifetime, he instantly associated it with a possibility.
Perhaps, after dying, he came to another world for some reason?
Could it be the Lord God’s space from infinite flow novels?
No, according to the classic procedure, a mysterious little pop-up window should first appear asking him the meaning of life, and then let him choose ‘yes’ or ‘no’, or perhaps the useless Lord God shattered for some reasons and required him to do missions to earn energy to repair it.
Pass.
“It couldn’t possibly be the Warp, right?”
Reincarnated into Terra?
That’s great, beast-ear girls are his favorite.
Not that Terra?
Terraria wouldn’t be bad either.
Wait, what do you mean the Warmaster was assassinated and remains in a coma to this day?
What does it mean that we are closest to the Blackstone Fortress?
Are there really only elf maidens and catgirls in that place called Commorragh?
Which damn Terra is this?!
At this thought, he shivered.
“Ahem, everyone must die eventually, I think being run over by Dayun like this is actually not unacceptable.”
Everyone is loyal when asked, but nobody goes when mentioned.
“…”
After thinking of dozens of possibilities in his heart like this, no sound ever rang out around him.
Just as he was racking his brain trying to recall various reincarnation plots he knew, a rectangular prismatic crystal floated over, interrupting his thoughts.
“Whoa, there’s even a mysterious girl in an ice coffin. Very nice, very anime.”
Although the figure reflected within was somewhat blurry, he could confirm that this was definitely a very pretty girl.
This girl possessed flowing golden long hair, moist eyes as clear and transparent as emerald gemstones, and thin lips as brightly colored as flying petals.
With just a single glance, he could no longer look away.
It was as if he had been bewitched by something, and he instinctively reached out his hand, wanting to stroke the other person’s cheek through the ice coffin.
However, what happened next exceeded his expectations.
The girl in front of him actually made the exact same motion.
“What does this mean?”
In front of her, there was no ice coffin, nor was there any girl.
The only things that existed were a reflective big rock and the blurry reflection mapped upon it.
Ho ho, the captain turned into a miner; as long as he goes diving again, he can collect sea, land, and air.
Exaggerated.
“Gua! What kind of expert is it that brought me to this place again? How, how could I… No, it’s not allowed, mouth-fang!”
Just like sand held in the hand, the harder you try to grip it tightly, the faster it slips away from between your fingers.
The light of her life, the fire of her desires, her sins, her soul.
They all flew away together with her little bird!
You’re awake?
The surgery was very successful.JPG
She of the past had already died; now there was only a blonde girl here.
“Hoo— Well, it’s not entirely unacceptable.”
Taking a deep breath and fully exerting the relaxed attitude of a corporate slave, it took her only three seconds to accept the fact that she went from a joystick enjoyer to a person blessed with fortune.
The so-called blessing lies within disaster, and disaster lurks within blessing.
Blessings and disasters are interdependent; when treating this matter, one must view it with a dual and critical perspective.
Though Niuniu is good, it has a built-in CD and is prone to misfiring.
Fufu is different.
As an entity sharing the same name as a certain Hydro Archon in the miHoYo universe, possessing the ability to continuously summon tides, it must surely bring people infinite surprises.
In other words, Fufu won.
She might not have Niuniu anymore, but she still had Fufu.
Fufu could completely become her life guide, couldn’t it?
Keeping a straight face once more!
Before the blonde girl could continue using her Ghost Brain to think about random nonsense, the surrounding space suddenly climbed with cracks like shattered glass, and then spread uncontrollably until the entire space shattered under this collapse.
Fragments peeled off, and the scene that replaced them was a golden giant tree piercing through heaven and earth, a dim sky emitting a crimson-red glow, and humanoid monsters surging towards her overwhelming the sky and earth.
“The world allows consciousness to match a new container, but does not allow the container to collect dissipating consciousness.”
“To save the only her, I can only create new possibilities in the past.”
“Despicableness will be taken by me into the grave, and light will be extended by you towards the future.”
The weapon in hand changed along with the light, moving forward in a disheveled and staggering manner.
The blonde man launched a charge against the enemies surging like a tide.
“Honkai Impact 3rd is involved too?”
Watching Otto hacking at the humanoid monsters like a pickup truck cutting skeletons, the blonde girl instantly reacted; what was happening right before her eyes was the plot of Otto rushing the tree.
So said Apocalypse.
She still remembered very clearly this plot that had once made countless streamers who claimed they wouldn’t pity Otto show troubled expressions and shed little pearls on livestream after watching the PV.
She subconsciously stepped closer, but Otto made no reaction.
The blonde girl was about to wave her hand in front of Otto, but Otto shouting a charge, the roaring monsters, and the Imaginary Tree all disappeared at this moment.
She returned once again to the place where it all started, that space floating with countless crystals.
[Ich liebe dich.]
[This is the final lesson.]
[Mei, I don’t want to die!]
[How can bell pepper curry be spicy?]
[Goodbye, my only kindred spirit.]
[Murata Himeko is already dead.]
[So this time, we really have to say goodbye.]
Those crystals suddenly moved, piecing together scenes in the air.
Eek, it scared me to death.
Familiar plots came one after another, all of them being Honkai Impact 3rd specialty snacks that those captain-zombies in the captain-selected channel loved most to eat.
However, a voice rising mysteriously in her heart was telling her that she must change all these tragedies that had originally happened!
That’s right, no matter what, she was a ten-year veteran captain after all.
[What is your answer?]
Although she still hadn’t figured out the situation, and even though she had no clue, there was still an answer in her heart.
“I can’t do anything!”
[Password Correct!]
As the blonde girl’s voice fell, as if it had finally waited for the desired answer, the world disintegrated once again.
But this time, the place she arrived at was no longer that hopeless place filled with boundless monsters just now.
Here there were white clouds, a clear sky, rolling blue-green mountains, and a bustling city.
Why could she see it so clearly?
Because she was right in the sky now.

[Welcome back… Vesta Apocalypse]
“What the f*ck, where did you bring me?! It was Dayun just a moment ago, and now it’s my turn to crash a plane, huh?!”
The wind constantly beat against her face, and the sharp whistling generated by the rapid descent continuously poured into her ears.
The blonde girl, namely Vester, couldn’t help shouting angrily.
Her downward falling speed did not slow down because of this; on the contrary, as she gradually approached the ground, Vester’s speed became faster and faster.
Thus, on that day, the people of Kolosten witnessed with their own eyes a meteor falling from the sky, tearing open the dark clouds above the rain curtain, and bringing bright sunshine to this city.
