Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Ai-chan: My House Is Pretty Big
[Back to the Video]
Accompanied by warm BGM, the screen turned black once again, displaying those four classic big characters:
[To Be Continued...]
Although the video had already ended, people were still immersed in it.
Moreover, to everyone's delight, the much-anticipated next-episode preview segment had finally returned.
When people eagerly started watching the preview for the next episode, they even discovered an unexpected surprise.
Because this preview was Otto's.
Accompanied by an unknown BGM, the preview video officially began.
Right from the start, the video delivered explosive news.
Otto, using the reason that he was stepping down as Overseer of Schicksal and passing the position to Theresa, lured Kiana, Theresa, and the others to the former base of Schicksal, Kolosten.
And then, for reasons unknown, a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.
As the battle progressed, even Schicksal's strongest S-rank Valkyrie, Durandal, chose to defect from Otto's faction.
Thus, she joined Kiana and the others in opposing Otto.
Seeing this, the live comments all excitedly shouted.
[Is the day we've long waited for finally coming?!]
[Get your blades ready, follow me! Kill Otto and take Schicksal!]
[Based on the ending of this episode and the preview of the next, could it be that miHoYo's writers have really changed their ways?]
[Could it be because they went too hard on us before, now they want to give us some cathartic content?]
[Wait, is it possible that this episode is also a trap (a knife)?]
[Impossible! Absolutely impossible!]
[Killing Otto is such a joyous event, how could it possibly still be a knife?!]
———
But as the current biggest villain, Otto naturally couldn't just sit and wait for death.
Through a series of previous maneuvers, Otto not only reached an agreement with the Honkai Will to obtain what he desired, he even fused with the Imaginary Authority and evolved into an immortal, undying false god.
At the end of the preview, Otto, now a false god, was shown sitting upon the supreme throne, awaiting the arrival of the protagonist team.
Just then, the screen shifted again, switching to Raiden Mei who was with World Serpent.
Under Kevin's guidance, Raiden Mei stepped into a mysterious space.
In the boundless darkness, Raiden Mei didn't know how long she had been walking; it seemed the corridor stretched infinitely, extending to another world.
Suddenly, Raiden Mei seemed to sense something.
Immediately after, an unexpected voice appeared in the video.
"Kevin, Kevin..."
"You really love causing trouble for people~"
As the girl's voice fell, a woman appeared on screen, one that was enough to drive the real world into madness.
That woman was, Elysia.
The screen turned black right after, and the preview abruptly ended.
A flood of question marks filled the black screen and slowly rolled across it, then vanished.
[It's here! It's here! We're finally going to kill Dog-tto!]
[Forget Otto, isn't the bigger surprise the fact that Elysia showed up?!]
[Say, since Elysia appeared, do you think Eden might show up too?]
[Eden is a world-class celebrity, she probably wouldn't casually act in just any drama, right?]
[True. Eden's schedule is packed almost every day. How could she have time to film something?]
[Doesn't matter. As long as Elysia is in it, I'm satisfied.]
[Hehehe~ Elysia, my Elysia~]
[Guys... you don't actually think Elysia's appearance is a good thing, right?]
[F***! I forgot this is Honkai Impact 3rd, the series where the writers stop being human!]
[Damn it, if miHoYo really dares to hurt my Elysia, I'll go nuclear on them!]
[Any busty sister here can DM me the name of the BGM used in the preview?]
[Nice trick, getting the name of the BGM and locating the busty lady. Not bad.]
[It's "IRAS 17514", take it, no need to thank me!]

At night, after sending off the girls, Van finally got to sit down and relax.
Now that Flame-Chasers, Eternal Flame had ended, his journey in the Honkai world had passed more than halfway.
Next, as time went on, Cabbagehead would likely reveal his past actions bit by bit.
Thinking of this, Van always had a lingering question in his heart.
He couldn't understand why Cabbagehead insisted on using exposé videos to force him into becoming a savior again.
Clearly, she had thousands of ways to test an old veteran like him, yet in the end, she chose this one. Of course, such questions could only be answered on the day he personally faced Cabbagehead.
But more than that, what really concerned Van was the follow-up impact brought by this video.
Because he had a hunch, in the near future, another guest would be added to his apartment's living room…
Thinking of this, Van couldn't help but feel helpless. Because this tiny apartment of his really couldn't fit many more people.
Just then, the phone in his pocket vibrated.
Van casually pulled it out to take a look, and his pupils instantly shrank.
Because he saw that his P Station backend had received a private message.
And the sender ID of that message was, miHoYo's No.1 Idol, Ai-chan.
But what shocked Van more than this was the content of the message...
[Captain, do you need me to help you switch to a bigger house?]

When Bronya walked out of the room, she found Kiana standing at the dorm window in a daze. And Bronya keenly noticed that Kiana's eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
This side of Kiana was something Bronya had never seen before.
After all, in Bronya's impression, Kiana had always been the carefree, goofy type. Rarely did she show this kind of melancholic, sentimental look.
Thinking of this, Bronya immediately walked up to Kiana's side and was just about to ask if something had happened when the dormitory door suddenly burst open, and Raiden Mei walked in.
Right after, Bronya felt a gust of wind sweep past her.
Then she heard Kiana's signature bug-like whiny tone, "Mei~ You're finally back~ I missed you soooo much~"
Watching Kiana desperately rubbing herself against Raiden Mei, Bronya subconsciously covered her face with her hand.
"Have I been hanging around this idiot for so long that even my perception is getting dull?"
To avoid interrupting their clingy moment, Bronya quietly left the scene and walked back into her room.
After gently locking the door, Bronya sat in front of her computer.
There, a chat window was still open. And the message in the window read, [Bronya, Seele is coming to Nagazora City to find you...]
