But no, the heroes who yearn for the ordinary are unwilling to meet them.
......
"How is the situation developing? Are they out of trouble?"
In the evening, Bai Zhi found a safe cave and immediately entered Bai Zhi Space, where Honkai Bai Zhi had been waiting for a long time.
"How should I put it? We've gotten rid of the current trouble, and before we encounter even bigger trouble—yes, they are trouble, but they are also my master and senior sister."
Greek Angelica sat on the ground, rested her chin on her hand, sighed, and offered a reminder.
“You specifically reminded me, and I remembered. It’s like watching a documentary; we understand it, but it’s not profound.” Honkai Bai Zhi put her hand on Greek Bai Zhi’s shoulder and began sharing memories, as Greek Bai Zhi had notified her in advance.
Subsequent actions require suggestions from everyone; this discussion is known as the Round Table Angelica Conference.
However, compared to Honkai Angelica, Terra Angelica doesn't have as much time to waste in the Angelica Space.
I'm broke and can't afford food, but I'm still preparing to entrust someone with a project.
"Your heart is now inlaid with an etheric crystal, and your illness has suddenly worsened from being the mildest among us to the most severe. However, compared to the blessing you received, this price is still worthwhile."
The blessing bestowed by Artemis is tantamount to the gods granting the moon authority; it's no exaggeration to say it ascends to the heavens in one fell swoop. When the moon appears, if it were to fight against Bai Zhi, it would likely suffer a humiliating defeat.
“A blessing is also a curse. I am human, and the heart is the most vulnerable and fatal point for humans. The power of the moon goddess exceeded my limit, and my heart exploded. I can only pray to the goddess Hera to go down to the underworld and save me.”
Those who are family know their own affairs. How could ordinary people bear the authority of gods? The Greek Angelica, who obtained the authority, was instead bound and unable to act freely.
"Since the human body cannot withstand it, why don't you forge a piece of equipment that can withstand the authority of the gods?"
Honkai Bai Zhi suggested that he was facing the same problem, and the solution he found was to get the Divine Key from Otto.
Based on current information, there are two Divine Keys that can alleviate the weakness of Honkai: Angelica.
The first is the Sixth Key of God, the Key of Creation, the Black Abyss White Flower.
As the key to "creation" that reverses the Herrscher of Death's ability, the Black Abyss White Flower possesses the ability to both decompose and create.
The destruction of the Black Abyss deconstructs the broken crystals from the inside out, while the creation of the White Flowers deciphers the genetic blueprint and repairs the damage to life forms.
Curing Osteopathy at its root.
Secondly—the eleventh key of God, the key of constraint, the oath of Judah.
As a weapon crafted from the core of the Herrscher of Binding, it possesses the ability to limit energy intensity and sever the flow and transformation of energy.
This prevented the spread and diffusion of ores disease at its source.
Unfortunately, this only treats the symptoms, not the root cause.
"Equipment? Looks like I'll have to go find Hephaestus, the god of blacksmithing."
Having shared memories, Greek Angelica learned of the other's plans, and putting herself in their shoes, she realized it made a lot of sense.
The Greek Runaway Prince: Chapter Nine - Don't Come Any Closer!
"Are you going to get involved in this third Honkai outbreak in a few months?"
Having set future goals, Greek Angelica asked curiously, "Sharing memories doesn't mean knowing all the details. Memories that the person in question might have overlooked need to be actively unearthed. But since the person in question is right in front of us, why bother searching for something that's not worth the effort?"
"What you really want to ask about is K423, right? At the moment, her value isn't that great, but she's a good reason. As for the other two of the starter family... let's not talk about it, we're not familiar with them."
Honkai Angelica is not a pushover and her favorability won't increase because of her past life's filter.
Let alone K423, even if it's someone you've been with day and night, if it's an enemy, Honkai·Baizhi will not show any mercy.
“As expected of the same person, you and I have similar personalities, avoiding trouble whenever possible.” Greek Bai Zhi revealed an expression of certainty, and said with a smile, “K423? I thought you would call her Kiana or Sirin, after all, we are the same kind.”
"The title doesn't matter to me, at least not now." Honkai Baizhi rolled her eyes and began to explain her plan: "I plan to use the excuse of treatment to go to the Far East St. Freya Academy and ask Theresa to borrow Judas to suppress Oripathy."
What kind of reaction will occur when the two androids meet? Otto will not give up the experiment. However, St. Freya is Theresa's territory. On the surface, Otto will not send a large number of Valkyries to be stationed there. In order to keep an eye on me, he will definitely send out high-end combat forces.
Otto has four trustworthy high-end combatants: Fu Hua, Durandal, Rita, and Li Sushang, who is hiding behind the scenes. At least as far as I know, these are the four. Therefore, I tend to think that Otto will send Rita to monitor me, while Fu Hua in the shadows will keep an eye on both me and K423.
However, Otto could not have foreseen that the trouble that arose at St. Freya Academy, and the invasion of Cocolia by Anti-Entropy, would be the day I fled.
I memorized the locations of the Mikoyan Central Design and Manufacturing Bureau, Shencheng Pharmaceuticals, and the industrial and pharmaceutical companies under World Serpent, down to their respective branches.
Tapping her temples, Honkai·Baizhi explained her plan, then added, "To meet the World Serpent's recruitment standards, under Teacher Yulandal's training, I lost count of how many times I went into shock, was seriously injured, and fell into a coma." The last part of her sentence sounded so desolate.
"What are we striving for? Strength is the guarantee of survival." Terra Baizhi approached, shaking the crossbow in her hand, revealing a serious expression: "Do you understand? This is training related to survival, and no matter how painful the process is, it is worth it."
"When did you arrive?" Honkai Baizhi shrugged.
"When Greece mentions Sirin."
"At the beginning? Perfect, saves me from repeating myself."
Terra Baizhi sat on the ground, placing her hands on the shoulders of the two men as they shared their memories.
"You finally passed the assessment, but you chose to become a temporary worker at Black Steel International."
"Are you planning to join Rhodes Island according to the original information?"
After exchanging memories, both Greek Angelica and Collapsed Angelica showed puzzled expressions, completely baffled.
“Neither.” Terra Baizhi shook her head. Even though she had put in a lot of effort during the Blacksteel International assessment and was almost exhausted like a Luper, she still maintained her aloof expression.
"What I want is to travel all over Terra, experience all sorts of things, and see more of the unknown. Becoming a temporary worker at Blacksteel International is to obtain funding for the operation and to avoid the trouble of leaving."
As we all know, it's difficult to get in within a system, but it's even harder to leave.
My journey after that will likely go like this: joining factions to earn money, leaving to travel, and when I run out of money, becoming a temporary worker again, until I achieve my goal of traveling to every corner of Terra, curing my Oripathy, and returning to Laterano to live out my old age in peace.
"Well, how should I put it?" Greek Angelica hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.
"Plans can't keep up with changes. Life is a live broadcast every day. The more plans you have, the more mistakes you'll make." Honkai·Baizhi didn't think much of his words.
What is the situation in the world of Terra? Gods still exist, there is the Originium virus, class conflicts, and the rebellion is mainly caused by things in the ocean. There is a hidden existence in our own Laterano, which is obviously related to Cthulhu. In a world where it is possible that an Outer God will one day retcon the books, it is difficult to live a peaceful life.
Terra Baizhi closed her eyes without arguing. Due to his personality, he would stick to his plan, and even another version of himself couldn't change his mind.
Even though they are all Bai Zhi, the life they experienced before regaining their memories after reincarnation still changed their personalities. Although their wishes are all the same, they all hope to live and travel to different places.
The remaining branches, however, are all different.
Greek Angelica's reverence for the gods and her basic etiquette; Honkai Angelica's indifference and apathy towards all things; Terra Angelica's piety towards Laterano and the aloofness hidden in her personality.
With each individual angelica plant in combination, their personalities become distinct, and unless they encounter someone truly close to them, the chances of an outsider opening their heart to them are extremely slim.
"That concludes the meeting. The next meeting is in a week. If you have time, Andercher, please bring in some furniture and household items. Of the three of us, you're the only one with time..."
Honkai·Bai Zhi made a summary, thought for a moment and reminded everyone that sitting on the floor for every meeting always felt a bit lacking in ceremony, but before he could finish speaking...
The three of them were stunned and turned their heads to look at the other side, where a tall, unfamiliar figure appeared out of nowhere.
"Huh? Where am I? Have I been ambushed? Damn it, I knew it was never good if someone stayed up past midnight."
The man wore a tall hat and a leather jacket that covered his skin. He appeared casual, but in reality, he was very alert. His hands were crossed at his sides, ready to draw two silver revolvers from his waist at any moment.
"氿y令*师榴〇旗`吧扒新人..." Greek Angelica showed slight surprise.
“A newcomer,” Terra Baizhi replied calmly.
"Newcomer!" Honkai Bai Zhi was the most excited. Without saying a word, she stood up, widened her eyes, and raised the corners of her mouth high, her face full of exaggerated expressions as if she had seen a savior, and approached.
"Who are you? What do you want? Stay away from me!" Before he could react to the sudden change in scenery, the newcomer was startled by the exaggerated facial expressions. He drew his two guns as a warning, but when the warning went unheeded, he decisively opened fire.
"Useless, useless, useless. Without raising your star level, you are no match for me, a three-star player."
Gun skills? Don't underestimate me just because I survived Durandal's attacks. Kaslana's gun-fu is no joke.
Honkai·Bai Zhi dodged the bullets with a few quick movements, then turned and used a special footwork to bring the distance between them to the closest possible level.
"Don't come near me!" The rookie's knee strike to the groin was blocked, but he immediately followed up with a quick kick.
"You can't escape now, just submit to me!" He braced his knee with one hand, raised his leg to block the instant kick, and grabbed the newcomer's arm with the other, activating the passive memory sharing.
In an instant, the two of them fell silent, still in their awkward, eccentric pose.
Greek Angelica and Terra Angelica exchanged a glance, then moved closer, placing their hands on each other's shoulders, sharing memories and power.
The Greek Runaway Prince: Chapter Ten - The Playboy in the Outlaw Zone
My name is Carbonsis, originally named Bai Zhi. I am a transmigrator who was reincarnated. I grew up as a refugee in a lawless zone. With the accidental help of the previous generation's princess guard, I became a member of the Ghent garrison in the imperial capital. During my career, I learned the basic skills of gunner, mechanic, and ammunition expert.
Unfortunately, due to insufficient funds, Bai Zhi chose to become a sewer gunman.
He had thwarted one of the Kallet raids with his sniper rifle, but was breached during the second raid. Just as he was about to be killed by the Kallet thugs, he remembered his memories from before he traveled back in time.
What I want is a cheat code, a cheat ability. Memory is useless, and I'm out of bullets for my pistol.
The memory cheat was useless. He barely managed to stall until the rescue team arrived. When the guards asked Bai Zhi to return, the memories in his mind told him about the impending catastrophe in the Heavenly Realm and the kidnapped princess.
To avoid trouble and to find the princess, Bai Zhi returned to the lawless land, making a living by sniping the Kallet organization. She learned of the Kallet's trading location through rumors, but the results of the raid told her that it was a trap.
Bai Zhi, trapped in a vicious circle, felt her life was about to end today. Then everything went black, and she found herself in a strange space. Suddenly, a mentally unstable person with considerable strength launched an attack...
"Who are you calling mentally ill?" Honkai Bai Zhi said, completely oblivious. "I'm just making contributions to help newcomers integrate into the Bai Zhi family more quickly, and you don't even know how to be grateful."
"Whether it's good or bad luck, the Wanderer's physical skills perfectly meet my needs."
Greek Angelica knew Honkai Angelica's nature well, so she ignored him and instead talked about the benefits of sharing memories.
Compared to the Kaslana Gunfighting style, which relies on Honkai energy, the Ranger system in DNF is known for its fast-moving attacks.
Skilled at using movement and positioning to find enemy weaknesses, coupled with fancy shooting techniques, the roaming gunslinger is an undeniably stylish profession.
The harsh and challenging living environment has enabled the Wandering Gunner to master unique shooting skills that allow him to shoot enemies from any position and at any time. His excellent physical abilities are enough to rival the swordsmen and fighters of Arad.
Although it has completely fallen to the bottom tier in terms of combat power rankings and future prospects.
At least for now, it has made up for the shortcomings in the physical skills of Bai Zhi and the other two.
Unfortunately, the Wandering Gunner focuses on individual strength, and Celestial Angelica doesn't have much mastery of professions like Mechanic, Ammunition Expert, and Gunner. She's okay in the early game, but becomes weak in the late game.
"There's nothing I can do. You all know how expensive other gunner systems are. The most basic self-destructing robots, silver bullets, and Gatling guns not only deal damage, but also piles of gold coins. All my savings combined don't even amount to a fraction of that."
Tianjie Baizhi complained that if it weren't for the pressure of reality, he wouldn't want to become a sewer worker. But there was no other way; money makes the world go round, and without money, you're the one doing the work.
"That's it. The meeting has just ended, and your current situation is not safe. The time ratio in the Baizhi Space is one to one. Although it will forcibly awaken your consciousness when you encounter fatal danger, you will be at a disadvantage then. It's better to break the deadlock one by one since you are trapped in the encirclement."
Greek Angelica summarized: "Next time you attend a meeting, prepare your discussion topics, and then we'll adjourn."
Tianjie Baizhi exited the Baizhi Space and opened his eyes. He was lying on his side in the abandoned hut. Outside the hut, the footsteps, shouts, kicking of the door, and gunshots of the Kallet thugs were heard one after another.
"It's not a dream..."
Clenching her fist, Bai Zhi was captivated by the unimaginable power, especially by the special factors floating in the void: "These are magical elements. With the catalyst, mastering them would be quick, but unfortunately, the quantity is too small. Most of them are bound by the magic circle in Arad below the Sea of Sky."
With his palm outstretched, points of light gathered in his palm. He was the first person in this era of the Celestial Realm to use magic after the Tyrant King Bakal ordered the severing of the magic tradition.
"With the enhancement of light attribute magic, it can indeed be passed off as a silver bullet." Bai Zhi knew what would happen if the news of his magic skills were spread. He was innocent, but possessing a treasure was a crime. Fortunately, the effects of silver bullets and light attribute magic were similar.
After loading bullets into both revolvers, Bai Zhi peered through a crack in the wall and spotted the location of the Kallet thugs outside. She took a deep breath and channeled her light-attribute magic into the guns.
Bai Zhi leaped out of the abandoned hut, firing wildly with her gun skills. Bullets rained down like a storm, hitting the enemy. The electric shock effect of the light attribute further amplified the victory.
Having dealt with the surrounding enemies, the distant enemies, drawn by the gunfire, opened fire in retaliation.
"Compete with me, a playboy from the lawless zone, in marksmanship. The Wandering Gunner is an expert at dancing among bullets."
With the shared enhanced senses, Bai Zhi clearly understood the enemy's distribution, including the bullets being fired. In his perception, they were like fireflies in the dark. While pressing down on the brim of his hat and changing bullets with one hand, Bai Zhi danced and dodged the barrage of bullets.
With the crescent moon hanging high, the stamina I had consumed slowly recovered in the moonlight. Thanks to the blessing of the moon goddess, even though I wasn't the main focus, the auxiliary effects it provided were still surprisingly good.
With a click, the gun was cocked, and Bai Zhi revealed a carefree, playful laugh: "I bloom amidst carnage like a flower at dawn. Are you all ready to die? Tonight's dance will be a little more intense." As the gun rang out, carnage blossomed under the night sky.
The Moon Goddess's blessing—[The bright moonlight will protect your growth]—was something all Bai Zhi noticed.
On the open-air training ground, Honkai Bai Zhi, wielding standard dual pistols, blocked a powerful axe kick. Under the moonlight, power surged within her as she lunged forward, attempting to disrupt her opponent's balance. Unfortunately, her scheme was foiled. The tall, blonde, blue-eyed woman retracted her raised leg, revealing a delighted smile: "Paimon, you've improved again~"
On the desolate plains, clusters of Originium stood in twos and threes. Terra Baizhi closed her eyes to rest, and under the bright moonlight, the halo above her head and the wings on her back were faintly visible. Absorbing the energy of the moonlight, Sarkaz's body was strengthening little by little.
Aside from the Greek Angelus himself, he was the one who received the greatest blessing from the moon goddess.
As Terra Baizhi slowly opened her eyes, she raised her crossbow, condensing light as she pulled the trigger. The arrow, trailing a streak of light, shot swiftly toward the northeast, striking one of the Originium swarms that was attempting to approach.
A blinding light shone forth, illuminating the area within a kilometer radius as bright as day.
This commotion naturally attracted the attention of others, and two figures quickly emerged from the nearby tent.
"Andcher has enemies?" Razer, holding the shield, had sharp eyes, as if lightning flashed across them.
"Yawn~ With such exaggerated methods, no enemy should be able to survive, right?" Franka rubbed her sleepy eyes and sighed slightly.
