About my outrageous life in Honkai Impact III

Chapter 412 The First Herrscher

"Why not her?"

Mobius said calmly, leaning back on the chair, crossing his legs and glancing leisurely at Mei who looked puzzled, a smile appearing on his face.

"Do you think that Alicia has nothing to do with the betrayer?"

"Yes, I really didn't think it was her."

Mei nodded. Before getting the answer from Padu, she had thought of several possibilities. In her opinion, the one who best fits this title is Chen. As for Alicia, Mei directly rejected this possibility.

"Why, after spending so much time with Alicia, you were captivated by her smiling face?"

Mobius teased, putting his hand on his face, looking at Mei and continued: "Then you underestimate Alicia. That girl has no fewer secrets than Xiao Chenzi."

"Indeed, I still don't know what her engraved name is."

Mei agreed with Mobius. The fact that she still didn't know the name of Alicia was hidden was enough to tell how deep she hid it.

"But she is better than Xiao Chenzi in one respect, that is, she will answer whatever you ask. She won't just come up with a random topic to fool you like Xiao Chenzi does."

This is indeed one of Alysia's great advantages. Just as she said, Alysia will respond to your expectations no matter when and where.

Therefore, in Mei's opinion, Alicia who speaks her mind, Hua who knows nothing, and Eden who says anything when drunk are simply the few consciences in the paradise of the past.

"So Mebius, you mean for me to ask Ellie directly?"

Mei thought it was not a very reliable method to ask the person concerned. Besides, this topic seemed too sensitive to her, and Alicia might not tell her.

"No, don't go to Alysia to ask this, and don't go to Chen either. If possible, I hope you can stop exploring this topic.

Because the answer is simple, that girl never trusted us, otherwise she wouldn't have left us behind."

Mebius' words were obviously spoken in anger, and the hand on her leg clenched into a fist to show her anger. To this day, she is still angry about Alicia's decision.

That party successfully killed two heroes, and the death of Alicia became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Since then, Chen has become colder and colder, his emotions are like a pool of stagnant water, and only slightly fluctuates when Mobius calls him.

"But these certainly won't satisfy you. You should now be thinking about who to look for next."

At this point, Mebius propped his head up with his arm and looked at Mei with a squinting eye. It was this kind of personality that made her feel troubled. Wouldn't it be better for her to just be quiet and know nothing?

"you are right."

Mei generously admitted that she was indeed thinking that if Mebius didn't tell her, she would go find Eden or Kevin.

After getting Mei's answer, Mebius sighed. In order to prevent Mei from running around in the paradise and running in front of Alicia, she pointed out a clear way for Mei.

"You can go find Kevin, or Hua. Of course, if you want, you can also find Aponya. As for the others, I don't recommend them."

"Can't you tell me?"

Mebius shook her head. The past was too painful to recall. She didn't want to think about that unpleasant past anymore.

"OK then."

Knowing that Mobius would say this, Mei did not force it. After a few simple farewells to Mobius, Mei left Mobius' laboratory.

After completing the preliminary exploration with Mobius, Mei's next action goal is clear. Kevin is the second choice, so she will go to find Hua, whom she hasn't seen for a long time.

……

Under the maple tree, Hua Shu stretched out her limbs and slowly performed Tai Chi, an appearance that did not match her young face at all.

"drink!"

A light shout was heard, and Hua threw a punch at an extremely fast speed. The fallen leaves in front of him were shaken away and hit the tree trunk.

Behind her, Meiyi came here quickly through the portal, and as soon as she went out, she saw Hua doing Tai Chi leisurely. This reminded her of when she was in Saint Freya, Fu Hua also got up on time every morning to do morning exercises.

Hearing some noise behind him, Hua stopped what he was doing, turned around and saw that it was Mei, so he nodded and greeted her.

"Mei, long time no see."

"Long time no see, Hua."

Mei returned the greeting, and without further ado, she went straight to the point: "I have something to ask you."

"Okay, you can ask."

Hua nodded. Her serious expression and the way she stood gave Meiyi a dull feeling. No wonder Luo Chen called her "Honest Hua".

"I want to talk to you about the betrayer. I learned from Mebius that you might know something."

"I do know something about this."

Hua's answer was concise and clear. Mei was actually investigating this. To be honest, Hua was surprised. But can I tell Mei about this? Forget it, if Chen didn't prohibit it, it means it's okay.

"I can't give you many answers. Chen didn't let me attend Alicia's party, saying that he didn't want me to feel more sad."

"A party for Alicia?"

Mei grasped the key point. How did the words "party" hosted by Alicia and "sadness" get mixed up? Could it be that something unexpected happened at the party?

"That's right. I don't know what happened at the party. I just remember that after that, Alicia died."

"what?!"

……

"The truth is just as Hua said. In order for future generations to defeat Honkai, Alicia was willing to die. She obtained the important fire for you."

In the extreme cold, Kevin turned his back to Mei and told her the past that she wanted to know.

Mei was shocked to learn the truth from Hua, but when she wanted to get further answers, Hua said he could not help her. So Mei came to Kevin.

"Is there anything that can only be obtained through the death of Alicia?"

Meiyi was puzzled. What could be gained by Alicia's sacrifice? And from Hua's description, Chen also participated in the party. Didn't he stop Alicia?

"In our time, there has never been a Herrscher who would fight for humanity. Or rather, the moment they were chosen as Herrschers, their consciousness had already died, and their bodies were controlled by the Herrschers' thoughts."

Kevin's words reminded Mei of the Herrscher personality. Except for the case of Bronya, the rest of the companions seemed to have developed a Herrscher personality after becoming Herrschers, and in the end they either defeated the other or coexisted with them.

"Alicea is special. She used her own death as a condition to buy you an opportunity. A condition that can defeat the Herrscher personality and maintain your own self."

Mei was stunned. How did Alicia use her own death to give them hope of survival?

"As for why she was able to do this, it was because she used her own death to exchange for the death of the Thirteenth Herrscher."
