Honkai Impact: Grandma Pine Sparrow is still chasing me!

Chapter 142 The Indestructible Chi You?

"Theresa, you betrayed me!"

"Siegfried, this is for Kiana's sake too. You wouldn't want your daughter to be without her father, would you?"

Theresa stuck out her tongue, looking completely innocent, which Siegfried found incredibly irritating.

"I should have guessed it sooner; you little dwarf can't keep a secret..."

"You old rascal, if Auntie doesn't tell, are you going to keep it from me forever?"

Seeing Kiana's sullen face, Sora couldn't help but think of a certain pufferfish.

Won't this cause the Herrscher of the Void to arrive and the Queen descend prematurely?

On second thought, probably not? With the Deathly Gem lacking tranquility and Otto frantically pouring Honkai energy into it, even if the Queen woke up, she wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

Even if a storm really breaks out, Lao Yang should be able to handle it and has a contingency plan, right?

"Qiong, are you alright?"

Forget about it, let's look at Raiden Mei and Bronya in front of us first.

"Mei, I'm perfectly fine!"

"But why is there a teeth mark on your hand?"

"Oh, I accidentally got bitten while trying to calm down a little shark named Anzu."

"Xing? Sister Xing? Xing? Mar?"

"The situation is roughly clear now."

Walter stepped down from his analysis position on the Hyperion; the situation was far more serious than he had anticipated. He hadn't been involved in the Nine Netherworld Incident, having only heard occasional mentions of Chi You before, but he hadn't expected it to be this troublesome…

"Everyone, based on Chi You's current direction and speed, he will arrive at the coast of Shenzhou in as little as three hours."

Upon hearing Walter's words, everyone's expressions turned serious.

"We have to stop it! But how? Conventional carrier-based aircraft weapons are completely ineffective against it!"

"Theresa, Hyperion's main gun!"

As the captain of the Hyperion, Himeko Murata was well aware of the power of the Hyperion's weapons.

"We can take it down with the Hyperion's main guns!"

"It's very difficult!"

Theresa shook her head.

“You know, although Chi You shouldn’t be able to withstand the Hyperion’s main cannon, the current energy can only support the Hyperion’s main cannon firing twice! We don’t know where its weakness is, and if we don’t hit the right spot…”

Theresa didn't continue, but she knew that nothing good was going to come of it.

“I have already notified several branches in the surrounding area and contacted my grandfather’s side. This time we may not be able to handle it alone.”

The adults were discussing countermeasures, while the younger generation was also looking for ways to fight the colossal Honkai Beast, such as Kiana, who clung to Siegfried as if afraid he would run away.

"Dad, is Chi You very strong?"

"It's nothing special. Your dad had similar games back in the day!"

"Can you still..."

Bronya drifted toward the corner where Qiong stood silently with her head down.

"Brother Qiong, what are your thoughts?"

"Oh, are you asking me?"

Bronya's sudden question surprised Sora a little.

Although Qiong knew exactly what to do, he just didn't know how to say it. He couldn't find a reason to convince everyone to agree to enter Chi You's belly and cause trouble from the inside...

Qiong hesitated for a moment, wondering if she could persuade Bronya.

“Bronya, I have an idea, but it sounds rather risky: we could send a few people inside Chi You's belly to find its core or weakness from the inside, and then sabotage it!”

Everyone except Bronya, who had a blank expression, looked surprised upon hearing this.

"Kid, are you crazy? This is the first time I've heard of someone wanting to fight inside a Honkai Beast, but it is a novel idea..."

Siegfried looked Qiong up and down. He had noticed the male Valkyrie earlier, but he hadn't spoken to her because Kiana was more important to him.

"What's your name? Are you from the Kaslana family?"

Logically speaking, Valkyries who are able to go out on missions should be quite outstanding. How could a gray-haired male be an outstanding Valkyrie?

Although Siegfried, the clan leader, basically doesn't get involved in anything, he should have met all the younger generation around Qiong's age. He really can't recall having such a person in his memory.

Could they be from the Shaniat side? But the hair color is wrong, isn't it?

“Mr. Siegfried, my name is Qiong, and I have no relation to your three great families of Destiny.”

Siegfried looked at the dome thoughtfully.

"Neither Kaslana nor Shaniat? That's unusual. Kid, what's your last name? What about your parents...?"

"Hey old man, what are you doing? Checking someone's household registration? Let's get down to business!"

Kiana interrupted Siegfried's question, which left Bronya slightly disappointed.

“Although Qiong’s method is risky, it’s worth a try. Bronya is willing to go with you.”

"No, it's too dangerous! I object!"

Raiden Mei cast her vote against it.

“But Sister Mei, Bronya believes that this tactic has a success rate of up to 50%, and it may be the only effective way to defeat Chi You.”

It's either success or failure, isn't it 50%?

Siegfried stroked his chin. This young man in front of him was quite bold; he liked him.

"Thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem like a bad idea. If we really have to do it this way, I, as the senior, should lead the team. After all, I have some experience dealing with such a big guy."

"Siegfried, how old are you? Why are you messing around with a child?!"

While everyone was still arguing, Himeko ignored what the others were saying and aimed the Hyperion's main cannon at Chi You.

"Why think about something so dangerous? Let's try it out first! Ai-chan, lock onto that monster's head, calibrate the Hyperion main cannon, fire in ten seconds!"

"Understood, boss! Target locked, ten..."

As the Hyperion's main cannon fired, a massive beam of light shot towards Chi You. Accompanied by a dazzling light and a violent explosion, Chi You's advance came to a halt.

"Was it successful?"

Everyone watched nervously as Chi You, headless, slowly collapsed.

"Haha, it worked!"

Theresa cheered. Qiong glanced at her helplessly; this wasn't over yet!

With the crisis averted, everyone except Qiong breathed a sigh of relief.

"See, Qiong boy. Stop thinking about reckless, suicidal tactics. You have to trust everyone. Theresa, quickly get the people from headquarters and other branches to clean up the battlefield! Oh, right, this is what we got from this trip: the Xuanyuan Sword!"

Himeko stepped off the control panel, patted Sora on the shoulder, and picked up the Xuanyuan Sword to show everyone.

"Weapons..."

Walter suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity to finalize the deal for the Moon Throne.

"Headmaster, are you interested in the 'Moonlight Throne'?"

"what is that?"

"A weapon that can unleash Honkai energy... Wait, Himeko-sensei, is the sword in your hand made of Soul Steel?"

Just when most people thought everything was fine, Ai-chan's alarm went off.

"Um, boss..."

Ai? Hyperion called out to Himeko.

"What's wrong, Ai-chan?"

"The target Honkai Beast has risen again and launched an attack on us!"

"what!"

Roar roar roar—

The faceless Chi You stood up again and roared. A purple beam of light nearly struck the Hyperion, and then its massive body continued to advance towards the Shenzhou continent.

"How is this possible? Its head was pierced through, yet it can still move? Is it indestructible?"
