Did the main characters enter the wrong game in their second playthrough?

The combination of marksmanship and hand-to-hand combat makes it incredibly difficult to defend against; if this is true in close combat, then what about ranged combat...?

She was carrying a standard-issue longsword, so she was even less likely to win.

Now that things have come to this, mere strength and skill are no longer the key to victory. Therefore…

"Sorry, Kiana! Here you go!"

With a furious roar, Ying instantly unleashed a hurricane within the virtual arena. Then, within the biting wind, countless wind blades were concealed within the sound of the wind. Under Ying's control, dozens of wind blades surrounded Kiana's projection in an almost encircling manner.

This attack was unavoidable!

But clearly, if she could be defeated so easily, she wouldn't be Kiana, not even her projection!

The next moment, the world seemed to slow down, and the wind blades seemed to have been slowed down, freezing in mid-air...

Kiana's projection, on the other hand, performed a perfect backflip to avoid being surrounded by all the wind blades, and then slowly raised the muzzle of her gun towards the horrified glow in the distance.

It's a spacetime fracture! Kiana's phantom used a spacetime fracture!

"not good……"

Ying gritted her teeth, staring at the dark muzzle of the gun, and instantly unleashed her near-limit speed, activating the spacetime fracture system at the same time.

"boom!"

The bullet flew almost past Ying's hair, but fortunately Ying's spacetime fracture system was successfully activated, canceling out Kiana's projection of spacetime fracture.

In an instant, the two figures clashed again, engaging in close combat amidst the howling wind and the rustling of wind!

With the help of the wind, Ying was obviously much more relaxed. By manipulating fluids, she could use the wind to restrict her opponent's movements, while reducing her own resistance and increasing her speed!

At the same time, she tried to use the wind to limit Kiana's senses, but it was clear that as a "projection", she had also inherited the Kaslana family's amazing combat instincts.

Even with her body severely restricted, she still managed to fight Ying to a standstill. However, she went from having a clear advantage at the beginning to now being somewhat unable to withstand Ying's increasingly fierce, storm-like attacks.

"Wind Vortex Sword!"

In the end, Ying used her signature skill, drawing a vortex to gather in front of her, successfully knocking Kiana's projection away.

"Go for it, Ying!"

Off the field, Bronya spoke softly to Ying on the field.

Mei's feelings were still very complicated, but she still hoped that Ying could win.

"Go, Your Highness!!!"

Suddenly! A shout came from the field. Everyone looked towards the source of the sound and saw a group of younger students waving flags with Ying's image on them and cheering loudly for Ying on the field.

At the same time, they also prepared a banner that prominently read "St. Freya is the cutest".

Clearly, such a niche effort must have come from a hidden force within St. Freya Academy, known as... the Princess's Support Group!

The princess they were referring to was, of course, Ying.

"Um... Lady Theresa's students are quite active..."

Rita watched this scene and teased Theresa, who had inexplicably turned into a "red potato mine" beside her.

"Ugh!!! Damn it! Himeko! Make a note of these students, I'm going to deduct a lot of their credits!"

Looking at Theresa's already flushed face, Himeko shook her head helplessly.

"Um... Headmaster, this shouldn't be..."

"St. Freya is the cutest, but it should be me!"

"..."

"..."

After that, Himeko's cheeks twitched visibly.

So... this is the crux of the problem?

Rita, standing to the side, watched the indignant Theresa, her face still bearing her standard smile, though her cheeks were slightly flushed...

Chapter Sixty-Six: Code Name: The Traveler

At this moment, the battle between Luminous and Kiana intensified, with both sides using the skill modules carried by the Valkyrie armor. Kiana's Burst System activated, and a giant cat claw composed of Honkai energy launched a continuous and suppressive attack on Luminous.

However, the [Domain Armor. Traveler], who possesses both the Burst System and the Transcendence System, clearly has the upper hand in this regard.

With the Burst System activated, Ying nimbly dodged Kiana's attacks in mid-air. Finally, seizing a momentary opening in Kiana's movements, she directly activated the Transcendence System. The longsword, brimming with storm energy, swiftly slammed down on Kiana, sending her flying backward and instantly rendering her unable to fight.

At the same time, the projection ended, and the system determined that Ying had won the Valkyrie test!

"Great! Ying! You passed the test!"

Upon seeing Ying emerge from the immersive synchronization device, Bronya and Mei immediately ran to her side to congratulate her.

"Hehe... It was just luck. If it weren't for this new armor, I probably wouldn't have been able to beat Kiana..."

Ying smiled modestly, but the truth was pretty much the same.

If she wants to defeat Kiana's phantom without using the Valkyrie Armor, she will probably need to control another power.

Now, she has mastered the use of "wind". According to the process, perhaps after going through a "main" mission, she will be able to control "rock".

When the time comes, if she faces Kiana's projection again, she will be able to have a fair fight with Kiana without relying on the power of the armor!

I wonder when we will be able to obtain the Geo element. Since the Wind element is already so powerful in the Honkai world, what will it be like when the Geo element appears?

Please don't use it mainly for solving puzzles for her... This world doesn't have that many secret realms and mazes to explore, nor that many inexplicable traps!

Sigh... she felt more and more how powerless the elemental forces of Teyvat were.

While both involve manipulating the wind, here we can generate a completely new kind of power through theorization and systematization.

Perhaps this is the difference between raw materials and refined processing?

"We finally passed the assessment. Now we can finally take a good rest."

Ying stretched lazily, revealing her perfect waistline.

She's been working incredibly hard to prepare for the exam! She gets up at 7 AM every morning to review the material, and then spends the afternoon doing practice tests. She doesn't get back to her dorm until 5 PM each day, leaving her with only three hours to play games!

"Crack, click..."

Suddenly, a sound like a camera scanning came from the side. Ying's ears twitched and her brows furrowed slightly.

"Huh? What's the noise?"

Following the sound, Ying looked over in confusion, and then...

The words "Saint Freya the First Lovely" and her own flag portrait came into view.

"Hmm...it seems to be Ying's fan club."

Bronya nodded, a hint of a smile in her eyes.

"It seems our Ying is still quite popular!"

Seeing this, Mei joined Bronya in teasing her as well.

"Uh! Now is not the time to talk about this! They're already here!"

"Oh no, Mei-neechan, let's run!"

"Go for it, Ying!"

"Hey! Wait for me!"

Seeing this, Ying immediately panicked and followed the two, with a group of crazy "star-chasing Valkyries" chasing after her.

"Ah...it's so good to be young~"

Watching the lively scene, Himeko shook her head with deep emotion, and then...

"Wait, haven't they come to print their grades yet? Honestly, how can they be as reckless as Kiana? Oh well, I'll just ask Fu Hua for help..."

After a moment of reflection, all that remained was a headache; these three guys...

Oh well, isn't this fine too?

……

"He has no Stigmata, is not a Fusion Warrior, nor a Herrscher, yet he is born with the power to control fluids..."

"And this isn't your limit, is it?"

Looking back at the details of the battle between Luminous and Kiana's phantom, Otto was like a precise microscope, taking in every movement and every move of Luminous.

Her combat skills are extremely refined, but she lacks strength. It seems I'll have to ask my old friend to help me out and teach this "little traveler" a lesson...

Ah... you'd better grow up quickly, don't make me too impatient...

Otto stood up; next, he needed to make some more preparations for the future.

For example, to minimize the impact of a Herrscher that has not yet been born, and incidentally, to conduct a completely new "experiment".

Perhaps this experiment will make that future a little clearer.

The light pierced through the office curtains, passed beside a bishop, and shone onto the desk…

On that desk, a document with red lettering at the beginning stood out conspicuously.

[Traveler's Honkai Energy Absorption Rate Report]

Beneath the report that had already been read and annotated, a certain phrase stood out.

"According to the armor test, the Honkai energy absorption rate of the [Traveler] is about 97.68%. The test showed that the recipient had no adverse reactions and the physical activity increased by 4% during the absorption process."

In the Honkai world, this would definitely be a report that would shock all forces related to Honkai.

Because the data on it was so astonishing, it was astonishing that... there was someone in this world who could almost perfectly absorb Honkai energy with their physical body and use it to strengthen themselves.

It's hard to imagine how far she would evolve if given enough Honkai energy...

……

"Woooo..."

A biting wind, carrying snowflakes, howled towards the city, making Belleburg even colder than usual today.

Even with underground heaters outside, people are still reluctant to go out, and the administrative district is sparsely populated...

Inside the machine room, the lights were still on.
