Honkai Impact: Grandma Pine Sparrow is still chasing me!

Chapter 410 The Bolize Shockwave: You Should Try It

Is Sora her own android?

This outrageous statement, which sounds like a dream, came so confidently from the mouths of his two closest friends.

Kiana, whose brain was overloaded, tried to find a trace of joking on Siegfried and Theresa's faces, but the two white-haired figures, one big and one small, looked terrifyingly serious.

"Um, Kiana..."

Kiana ignored her stammering aunt and father, and instead glanced at her phone—one glance wasn't enough, so she glanced at it again.

"Kiana, are you contacting Sora?"

Kiana shook her head frantically.

"No, I was checking the time—it shouldn't be April Fool's Day today!"

Siegfried and Theresa exchanged a glance. As Siegfried expected, Kiana couldn't accept this outrageous fact—and that was only part of it. What if they told Kiana that she was also a homunculus, that her name was "Kiana's," and that "Kiana" was still alive? That would be terrible!

I'm afraid the Herrscher of the Void might awaken on the spot and fight those two to the death!

Out of tacit agreement, the two of them did not mention the more impactful events that would follow Kiana, but instead tried to get Kiana to accept the fact.

"Kiana, even though Xiao Qiong is an artificial human, what you know about him and your past are real! You enrolled in school together in Changkong City, the time you spent at the academy, and the happy or unpleasant memories... all the feelings are genuine!"

The implication is that Kiana's experiences since the Siberian snowfields, as well as Siegfried and Theresa's love for her, are real—of course, this point doesn't need to be emphasized.

At this moment, Kiana began to think about a question she had never seriously considered before: how should she face Sora?

But in Theresa and Siegfried's eyes, Kiana's behavior seemed bewildered, so...

Theresa moistened her throat with bitter melon juice before preparing to share her experience.

"Kiana, let me tell you a secret I've never told you but which is pretty much public knowledge: your auntie is also a clone of Kaslana!"

"Ok?"

Kiana, who was lost in thought about whether "Dead Grey Hair should call her sister or her mother," looked up as if she hadn't heard Theresa's words. She stared blankly at the petite aunt in front of her, whose blue eyes, similar to her own, held only calm in them.

"But Auntie, I remember you mentioned that you're the head of the Apocalypse family, right?!"

Theresa held the bitter melon juice cup, which was almost as big as her face, and took several large gulps before replying to Kiana.

“Yes, but that doesn’t stop me from being a clone of ‘Kallen Kaslana,’ just with an added copy of the Honkai Beast Vishnu’s genes… I’m the same as Sora, but that doesn’t stop your mother and I from being best friends, and it was your godmother who named you…”

Kiana's lips moved, but no sound came out. She looked at Siegfried for confirmation, and Siegfried nodded slightly to her.

"So you see, would you disown me as your period aunt just because I'm a cyborg?"

Theresa put down her cup and placed her hands on the table to make herself appear more serious.

"So what if I'm a homunculus? I have the same genes as Kallen, but I'm Theresa Apocalypse, not Kallen Kaslana. I have my own network, friends, and subordinates, and..."

Theresa looked at Kiana, her gaze softening.

"And then there's you, my troublesome little niece! These things I gained 'later' truly defined me. I believe Qiong is the same."

"Auntie, were you always this eloquent?"

Theresa rolled her eyes at Kiana, annoyed: Yes, she and Siegfried had thought about it for most of the night, but is that the point?

"I am, after all, the headmaster! I have to reason with the students when I'm educating them!"

However, if Kiana's thinking goes astray, it also means she has accepted the fact that she is a "homunculus"—that would make things easier. At that point, her and Siegfried's worries would not become a reality. As long as they work hard afterward, Kiana will also know and accept that she is also an homunculus...

Yes, accept it calmly.

"that……"

Kiana's voice was very soft, almost inaudible.

"Dead ashes...Does Qiong herself know that?"

"He might know, or he might not?"

Siegfried carefully considered his words.

“He should know that he is special, but the specific details… we think he probably doesn’t know.”

"But why? Why would Bishop Otto do this?"

"To be honest, we're not too sure either. Maybe it's to create superhumans to fight the Honkai?"

Speaking of this, Theresa also lost her confidence.

Many times, she genuinely couldn't understand what her grandfather was trying to do: use the combination of Kaslana and Schariac to fight the Honkai? But according to Siegfried's account combined with Anti-Entropy's, Otto was actually the culprit who murdered the first Welt, betrayed the second Welt, and let the second Herrscher go, allowing her to go to the moon and triggering subsequent disasters that led to Cecilia's sacrifice. A bishop who lost his humanity in his fight against the Honkai wouldn't do such a thing; was it an absolute lust for power that led him to attack enemy organizations even if it meant letting the Herrscher go? No, that's not it either! Otherwise, if he would have gone to such lengths, would Anti-Entropy still be alive today?

"Anyway, Qiong is probably part of that man's experiment—or rather, what kind of experiment. I don't know..."

Kiana clenched her fists. In her eyes, the bishop who used to run to the academy just to capture the possible "demon fox" Yae Sakura, who hated evil but was also reasonable, had changed into a cold-blooded, ruthless, and unscrupulous... well, a bad guy who would do anything to fight the Honkai.

"What exactly does he want to do? Is it possible that I'll have thousands of more younger brothers and sisters in the future, and then use my clone army to fight against the Honkai?"

"No way!"

Theresa quickly comforted Kiana.

"Kiana, the success rate is already low, and he assured me during our phone call that he wouldn't continue with the cloning—"

"Auntie, can we trust what the bishop says?"

"This one……"

Theresa was speechless for a moment after Kiana's retort, scratched her head, and said nothing more.

Kiana remained silent for a long time.

The air in the office seemed to freeze. The wall clock ticked away, each second stretching out infinitely.

"So, Auntie, are you still working for that wicked bishop?"

Theresa and Siegfried exchanged a glance, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

"Kiana, the situation is a bit complicated. I don't agree with your aunt's approach either, which is why I came all the way from headquarters to the Far East to establish St. Freya Academy—you know what? Establishing St. Freya was actually your mother's dream too!"

"And what about you, Dad? Aren't you some kind of chosen agent?"

Siegfried scratched his head, shook his head with a wry smile.

"Kiana, actually I broke free from Fate a long time ago. Think about it, if I hadn't broken free from Fate, why would we be living in Siberia?"

Kiana frowned, seemingly not quite believing Siegfried's words.

"I heard from people at headquarters that you were on a secret mission."

"That's just polite talk. After all, I am the chieftain of Kaslana."

"What about Professor Walter? Isn't he your colleague? You and he came together to support us!"

"Actually, Walter is the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance."

Siegfried's words were spoken casually, but they dropped a bombshell on Kiana's heart.

"Huh??????"

Kiana jumped up from her chair, her eyes wide, pointing at Siegfried and then at the air, as if she wanted to grab some absent man surnamed Yang and ask him for an explanation.

"The leader of Anti-Entropy? Professor Welt, is he... the boss of Anti-Entropy, Schicksal's greatest enemy?"

"Yes, the First Herrscher, the Herrscher of Reason, the Leader of Anti-Entropy."

Siegfried nodded, confirming the information that would shock Kiana so much that her jaw would drop.

"Back then, we...we worked together. Later, they helped me escape Schicksal's surveillance, and we've kept in touch ever since. He came here partly to cooperate with Theresa, and partly..."

The amount of information was overwhelming; Kiana felt like her CPU was about to overheat. She rubbed her forehead, slowly sat back down in her chair, and muttered to herself.

"Dead Gray Hair is an artificial human... Auntie is a clone... Professor Walter is the leader of Anti-Entropy... Dad, you defected a long time ago but are still colluding with Anti-Entropy... Auntie, you too..."

Kiana looked up, her eyes filled with confusion and a hint of grievance.

"So... how many things are you hiding from me? How many secrets of this world are I unaware of?"

Theresa and Siegfried both looked guilty. Theresa walked around the table to Kiana and gently patted her shoulder.

"Kiana, we didn't mean to hide it from you. Some things are better left unsaid, and may even bring danger if you know them too early. Especially regarding Grandpa's plan..."

"We just want to protect you and let you have a relatively peaceful campus life like a normal girl."

"Then why are you telling me this now?"

Kiana's voice sounded muffled.

Siegfried pointed to the photo on the table.

"Because we saw you and Qiong..."

--------------

"Um, who are Butterfly and Ms. Aglaia?"

Upon seeing an unfamiliar name, the curious Qiong raised her hand to ask a question.

"Feng Jin, could you please let Saifeier and Ms. Heather—"

Xi Lian didn't answer Qiong'e's question directly. She was about to say something to the girl she called "Feng Jin" when Qiong heard a loud noise.

After the noise, he noticed something flying towards them at an extremely high speed from the sky...

The speed of sound?

No, it's supersonic!

At such a distance, the enormous noise was even louder than the sound of the earth beast. More importantly, Qiong could even see the source of the noise: it was some kind of purple... creature?

The crash site appears to be this square...

"My God, at that speed, won't that thing hit us?"

Qiong's first reaction was to pull Xi Lian and Feng Jin along, and tell his little sister and the man to pick a relatively strong earth beast to use as a meat shield to hide.

"Xiao Xing! Run over there right now!"

The moment Qiong finished speaking, the purple trail in the distance suddenly magnified—it was a dragon?

"It didn't 'hit' us, buddy."

Xi Lian suddenly spoke, her voice unusually clear amidst the noise, but also carrying a hint of frustration and regret.

“Lianbao is right, Diebao came for us.”

Without thinking twice, Qiong grabbed the two girls and ran towards her younger sister.

"Butterfly is a dragon? We'll talk about that later. At our speed, it shouldn't be able to hit us..."

boom--

However, man proposes, God disposes. Defying the laws of physics, the dragon changed course and flew close to the ground just before crashing. Then, it braked immediately, launching a purple figure that crashed into the sky with a loud "boom," just as the dragon was pulling two beautiful girls to safety...
