Although this battle hadn't satisfied everyone, Stelle and Kiana had still presented an excellent visual feast.
Even though the crowd remained unsatisfied, they could only return home disappointed.
After sending Stelle, Himeko, and the others back to the Black Tower Space Station, Victor took on the task of escorting Kiana back to the Honkai Impact 3rd world.
"Mr. Welt, you haven't been back to Earth in so long. Do you want to go back and take a look?"
Just as Victor was about to step through the dimensional gate, he suddenly thought of something and turned back to ask.
Himeko and Markh also cast curious glances at Welt.
Welt habitually pushed his glasses up on his nose, thought for a moment, and finally shook his head. "Forget it. That place isn't the hometown I know, after all."
Although it was also the Honkai Impact 3rd world, the timeline there was far too early.
When he came to the Honkai universe, Kiana had already become the Herrscher of Finality.
Furthermore, the Kiana from his world hadn't joined the chat group, which showed they weren't from the same world.
"I wanted to see two Mr. Welts in the same frame." Victor sighed, looking a bit disappointed.
"Well then, I'll be leaving first. Goodbye."
"Victor, take care! Remember to come visit us again!" Markh stood on her tiptoes, raising her right hand and waving goodbye.
"Oh, some people..."
Carrying the unconscious Kiana through the dimensional gate, Victor found himself confronted by a scene that nearly gave him a nosebleed.
He saw a woman with long purple hair, completely naked, with her back to him.
That graceful back was utterly captivating.
As if sensing the movement behind her, the woman slowly turned around, revealing her perfect curves in full.
"Kiana, you're finally back, "
She froze mid-sentence.
Immediately after, a blush quickly spread across Mei's beautiful face.
In an instant, her originally fair skin turned as red as a ripe apple.
"Ahh!"
A scream resounded throughout the Valkyrie dormitory.
Mei quickly turned around and crouched down.
Victor snapped back to his senses and was about to speak when he heard a loud bang. The tightly closed door suddenly exploded inward, and a short figure rushed into the room.
"Sister Mei, you... hm?"
Seeing Victor in the room, Bronya also froze.
"Ahem, sorry. I didn't mean to." After two dry coughs, Victor set down the Kiana in his arms and consciously left the room.
A few minutes later, Victor sat on the soft sofa, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, drinking it calmly.
Bronya, Theresa, and Himeko Murata looked at him quietly.
After a long silence, someone finally broke it.
"So this really was an accident."
Theresa considered Victor's explanation from earlier and confirmed it indeed hadn't been intentional.
Victor nodded and took out a jade bottle from the system space. "Although this truly was an accident, I can't deny that I was wrong for not choosing to close my eyes immediately."
"To make up for my mistake, this bottle of medicine is my apology."
A similar accident had happened the last time he'd visited Boss Bai's place, but he hadn't expected to make the same mistake again.
Since he'd been at fault first, Victor was willing to make compensation.
"There's no need to compensate. You weren't wrong."
That familiar gentle voice came from behind.
Looking back, he saw Mei, now fully dressed, walking down from the second floor.
At this moment, her face was still flushed red.
She was clearly the victim, yet her eyes kept darting away, as if she were the guilty party, not daring to look Victor in the eye.
Victor shook his head and said seriously, "No, no, no. You should still take it. That way, I'll feel better."
Accidentally seeing such a gentle woman's body, ahem, what a sin!
Seeing that Victor insisted, Mei didn't refuse anymore.
"It's getting late. I should go make lunch."
After saying that, Mei ran toward the kitchen as if escaping.
"Victor, do you want to stay and eat with us?" Little Theresa invited him.
Victor thought about it and nodded. "Alright."
It had been a long time since he'd last tasted the delicious food made by Mei, so he was rather looking forward to it.
Upon hearing this, Mei in the kitchen immediately decided to prepare the best dishes to entertain Victor.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
After a hearty meal, Victor didn't rush to leave. Instead, he asked to visit the Hyperion.
As a former captain, he'd finally come to the Honkai Impact 3rd world, how could he not go see his cloud battleship?
Theresa naturally wouldn't refuse Victor's request.
She also personally acted as a tour guide and took Victor to the airport.
"That's the Hyperion. How about it? Isn't it impressive?"
Theresa put her hands on her hips and looked proudly at the white warship docked in the airport as she introduced it.
Victor looked at the spaceship but found that the Hyperion before him was completely different from the one he was familiar with.
But thinking about it carefully, he understood why.
At this time, the Hyperion hadn't undergone any Anti-Entropy modifications, so its appearance was naturally still in its most primitive form.
And it was only about two hundred meters in size.
In the game, after being modified and upgraded by Anti-Entropy, the appearance of the Hyperion became familiar to players.
Not only had the size increased significantly, but the firepower and protection had also been greatly improved.
Suddenly, a bold idea popped into Victor's mind.
"Principal, have you ever thought about sending the Hyperion to the Honkai: Star Rail world for modifications? To make it a space battleship capable of interstellar travel?"
As soon as these words left his mouth, Theresa's eyes lit up. "What a great idea! Why didn't I think of that before?"
Himeko Murata poured cold water on the idea at this moment. "Principal, the idea is good, but we don't seem to have the money to hire someone to help us modify it."
"That's true."
Theresa, who had been full of expectations, suddenly deflated.
"Ever since we became independent from Schicksal, we've been living a rather poor life and have very little money."
"Besides, it seems we can't spend the money we have over there."
Victor said, "That's easy. If you want to upgrade the Hyperion, I can help you find someone to upgrade it!"
Given his relationship with the Xianzhou, if he asked them to help upgrade a battleship less than three hundred meters long, they definitely wouldn't refuse.
Of course, he didn't need to bother the Xianzhou, he could just ask Herta for help.
He didn't think she'd refuse.
"Then I'll leave it to you!"
If there weren't so many people here, Theresa would have kowtowed to Victor on the spot for the sake of the Hyperion.
"Once the Hyperion is upgraded, I'll let you be the captain!"
Victor was stunned when he heard this and whispered in Theresa's ear, "Not the kind of captain who can only clean with a broom and mop and can't touch anything except the elevator buttons, right?"
Theresa blinked and said in surprise, "How could that be? Can that even be called a captain? That's clearly called a cleaner!"
Good grief, it's confirmed!
It turns out that back then, the players really were just cleaners!
