Chapter 122: There's even a collab event? Kafka personally introduces her skills!
"The silk is too fragile to be a threat."
"It breaks at a touch."
"Unless you're more fragile than the silk."
"Case in point—"
Kafka arrived at another corridor at this moment.
One hand held a knife in reverse, while the other held a submachine gun.
The moment she raised her head.
A sharp purple light flashed in her eyes!
The company security patrolling here suddenly reacted, just about to open fire.
Kafka directly threw her knife out.
At the same time!
The pointer on the clock dial moved from 12 to 11.
Another employee holding a long spear swung it over.
Kafka dodged with a side step.
She finished him off with a shot from her other hand.
Using the recoil, she jumped onto the wall.
She kicked another employee unconscious.
"Buzz!"
The dial pointed to 9.
She took care of three people in less than a breath.
This left all the players dumbfounded!
"Isn't this a turn-based game?"
"This camera work! Feathered Spirit, you must be on site!"
"The mother is strong!"
"Rose petals instead of blood, is this mom's perspective?"
"This is a character PV! You should show Kafka's skills in the game, what's the point of all this real-time footage!"
"Even Kafka herself is smiling, looks like she's very satisfied!"
Amidst the exclamations.
Kafka solved two more people as smoothly as flowing water.
Facing the enemies rushing over for reinforcement.
She held two submachine guns and started sweeping!
Finally, she spun 180 degrees in the air, finishing off the last enemy in an inverted position.
At this moment.
The pointer pointed to 2!
She pulled out the knife stuck in the ground.
She casually added another shot.
The dial reached 1!
At the same time.
The elevator door,
Opened.
She walked step by step into the spacious lobby.
And here.
It was already filled with company employees!
All held weapons, aimed at Kafka, who appeared from the corridor.
But Kafka seemed to ignore all of this.
Staring at the knife in her hand that emitted an eerie purple light.
" Sigh.."
"Destiny clearly has thousands of faces,"
"Why does it choose...to wear this one?"
While sighing.
With Kafka as the center.
Red cracks expanded in all directions.
As if space was being eroded.
Like a spider totem.
Or like burning demon wings.
Everyone realized!
The most explosive ultimate skill was coming!
Even Kafka herself.
Slightly sat up from her seat.
Her expression showed a hint of anticipation and pleasure!
"Stealing a glance?"
Under the spotlight of the stage.
Kafka snapped her fingers.
In an instant.
Lights flashed!
Kafka then held two submachine guns and started spinning and sweeping!
Paired with the background music building to a climax.
A burst of exclamations erupted on the scene!
Even if they had experienced it in advance.
Even if they had seen it in advance!
But at this moment.
They were still genuinely amazed and shocked!
In this twilight rain of intertwined light and bullets, all the employees became like background boards.
Finally.
Only one employee was still leaning against the wall.
Kafka smiled and approached step by step.
"Sooner or later, the curtain has to fall."
In her hand.
The silver coin from the beginning reappeared.
And on its face.
The character "1" was engraved.
"As for how the ending turns out…"
"Wanna take a guess?"
Kafka casually tossed it into the air, then grasped it.
The screen briefly turned black.
It was unknown whether it was heads or tails.
But.
A gunshot still broke the silence.
The next moment.
In a blood-red background.
Kafka stood by the railing like a lone traveler.
Holding a black umbrella.
"Heads or tails…"
As the tail end of the music reached its climax.
The camera zoomed in step by step!
Kafka's face turned around.
"What's your answer?"
The video ended!
Kafka in the studio curled her lips into a pleasant arc.
Clearly.
She was very satisfied!
She even clapped lightly!
"Not bad."
"I cannot give a concrete answer for my definition of beauty, based on my past experience."
"The more beautiful something is, the more fragile it tends to be."
"And this habitual logic seems to be a bit unworkable in the work created by Feathered Spirit…"
Kafka said in a tone of annoyance.
But no matter how you looked at it.
It seemed like an unconventional way of affirming this PV!
After listening to Kafka's evaluation.
All the players in Aurum Alley Plaza also clapped along.
Their eyes filled with amazement and shock!
It could be said.
Today, Feathered Spirit brought everyone a visual feast!
And with Kafka's personal affirmation.
Undoubtedly pushed this feeling to the extreme!
"Kafka, we don't have much time."
A familiar voice came from behind the studio.
The crowd stirred again!
"It's Silver Wolf!"
"As expected! She also participated!"
"The bond between us Stellaron Hunters is too deep!"
Kafka nodded slightly.
"Okay."
"Next."
"I will introduce the new character appearing in "Honkai: Star Rail"."
"…Kafka."
She softly spoke her own name.
But in the ears of all the watching players.
It was like thunder!
One by one, they stood rooted to the spot.
At a loss!
In the crowd.
Guinaifen's face was filled with shock and pleasant surprise.
She was so anxious she couldn't even speak!
She took a few deep breaths before regaining the ability to organize her words.
Facing the live broadcast camera.
She said in a suppressed, excited voice: "Families!!!!"
"We are fortunate enough to witness history!"
"Kafka is actually going to personally explain her skills!"
"I never dreamed that something like this would happen!"
"Today is definitely going to be a legendary day!"
In the plaza.
The whole place was in an uproar for a moment!
"I… I didn't hear wrong, did I!?"
"What kind of divine collaboration is this!?"
"Feathered Spirit!!!! What did you do! You actually got Kafka to be the personal narrator?"
"I can't breathe anymore! Someone save me!"
In the studio.
Kafka switched the game data Feathered Spirit had sent her earlier to the live broadcast screen.
This was the game character—Kafka.
One of her idle animations.
She was playing with the intricate purple threads in front of her.
Kafka softly said: "Hello, players of "Star Rail", this is the new limited five-star character, Kafka."
"Feathered Spirit's positioning for her is: Lightning element, Nihility Path."
"She is skilled at manipulating hearts with her Spirit Speech, binding her prey to her fingertips like a spider web; few can escape her grasp."
Seemingly introducing a game character.
In reality, it was a self-introduction!
This strange and bizarre feeling made all the players feel as if a current swept over them.
Goosebumps rose all over!
Kafka continued to introduce in a charming and dangerous voice: "She knows no fear, yet is skilled at bringing the deepest fear to her enemies."
On the screen.
A combat scene appeared.
"Her Basic Attack is [ Midnight Tumult ], the name is good, but it's not used in actual combat, so I won't introduce it."
"Her Skill is [ Caressing Moonlight ]. Look, this is a diffusion-type skill, she will draw her knife and initiate a thrust. Besides dealing Lightning damage, it will also detonate all DoT effects on the target."
"From this, it can be seen that Kafka not only possesses the magical [ Spirit Speech ] ability, but is also proficient in the use of various weapons in combat."
"For example…"
"This Ultimate—[ Tragic End Tremolo ]."
"Feathered Spirit's naming style, it's as if he peered into my heart and then expressed it with the most suitable words."
"Oh~ I'm getting off topic."
At this moment, the Ultimate had been activated.
The splash art of her holding an umbrella flashed by.
Holding two submachine guns, one above and one below.
Black and red particles intertwined at her feet.
"When Kafka activates her Ultimate…"
"Her elegant dance will play the tremolo of a tragic end for her enemies."
"After releasing the AoE attack, it also detonates all DoT effects on all enemies, but… the multiplier is much higher than the Skill, and it can also apply the [ Shock ] effect to the enemies."
"Clearly, the design of the character Kafka is to fully utilize the DoT effects applied to enemies by her teammates."
"The longer the battle, or the stronger the enemy, the better her effect can be utilized."
"This also aligns well with how I treat my prey."
The watching players immediately shouted excitedly: "Mom, you can't praise yourself like that!"
"Exposing your abilities on a live stream! Besides my Mom Kafka, looking across the entire galaxy, who has this kind of courage?"
"We Kafka simps are already too happy to breathe!"
"This is too great, isn't it? If only every character could introduce their own skills like Kafka in the future!"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Having Kafka herself introduce it is enough, I already love this game to death!"
"Just for this scene today! I'm going to play until I'm old!"
In the studio.
This novel method of self-introduction obviously made Kafka feel very interested as well.
She put down her crossed legs.
She said to the back: "Darling, do you want to talk about it from a professional player's perspective?"
"Is Kafka—this character worth pulling for?"
Silver Wolf's voice came: "You're having so much fun, I almost don't want to tell you: the IPC fleet is about to surround this place."
"If we don't leave now, we'll be a buy one, get one free deal."
Kafka deliberately showed a surprised expression.
She waved at the camera.
"Then, everyone, goodbye."
"Whether to pull for this character or not, that's up to you to decide."
After saying that.
All the screens turned to static.
The live broadcast signal was interrupted.
On the scene.
Everyone hadn't fully recovered yet.
A few minutes later.
They all excitedly took out their phones and Jade Abacuses.
"How can I not listen to what Mom says!!"
"Gotta pull for her!"
"Doesn't matter, it's just a month's salary!"
"Just for this scene today, I wouldn't mind charging ten 64800s!"
"This is Dan Heng's test for me… Ahhh, I'm sorry, Dan Heng!"
"What strength? What stats! I just want to bring Mom home!"
