Honkai Impact: Grandma Pine Sparrow is still chasing me!

Chapter 327 This Mars is probably beyond saving.

"You, you actually—"

Unexpectedly, Sora refused. Leera, who was falling rapidly with Sora and was quite angry, gave Sora a ferocious look. Of course, Sora did not understand why Leera was angry and could only explain it simply as her being mentally unwell.

"Answer me! Answer me! You shouldn't have answered like that!"

"No, we're falling!"

Perhaps realizing his loss of composure, the "Dream Seeker" in Qiong's eyes, who was made up, dark-skinned, and glaring at him while talking to himself, quickly regained his composure.

"Yeah... never mind. Even though it won't last long, it's still..."

He knew about Hinadia, and he also knew the concept of a Dream Seeker, and even said that he was a Dream Seeker... Could it be that he really succeeded in developing his powers in the future to the point of infiltrating dreams and going against the current to return to the present?

Surely, hidden within his mind are secrets and clues to Hinadia's resurrection? Perhaps his memories hold the key to unlocking his powers to successfully return to the past? No, taking a step back, perhaps his heart holds certain things that Lithost and Nahera, even if they anger him, cannot reveal to him?

If Lithost and Nahera, or Serapem, heard these unrealistic fantasies, they would probably try to comfort the half-mad god—unfortunately, the passing of Sinadia is an undeniable fact, and they grieve as much as she does.

Miracles of immortality do exist, but they cannot bring the dead back to life; the dead cannot be brought back to life, but the living must continue to live...

Unfortunately, the current Goddess of Luo Xing doesn't want to listen to the living's advice. She only knows that she may have grasped a lifeline, a lifeline that may be able to bring back the deceased—even if the lifeline itself doesn't know that it has been used as a lifeline.

Reira's figure quickly "dissolved," and Qiong's body followed, landing painlessly on an open ground.

"What the hell is that?"

Confused, Qiong looked around. He was next to a lake—but there was no sound except for him, only an eerie silence.

Clearly, he was still in that inexplicable trial.

A sense of unease welled up in Qiong's heart. Wasn't this just a third-rate isekai anime with some melodramatic romance elements before? What the hell is this now?

“Sinadia…”

Because of the silence, Qiong, whose ears were exceptionally sensitive, noticed a dark figure she had just seen sitting on a large rock in the distance.

"is her?"

Qiong looked closely and realized that this was the "Dream Seeker"! However, the "Dream Seeker" in front of her was a little different from the one she had met before—to be specific, the long braid and clothing were more like the Dream Seeker Entropy in Qiong's memory, except for the glasses and the color scheme, it was basically the same!

The Dream Seeker—let's call her that for now—didn't find Qiong. Instead, she was sitting on a large rock. Although she was sitting comfortably, she looked around anxiously, as if waiting for someone.

Should we go take a look?

It wasn't far, and since he had nothing else to do, Qiong decided to sneak closer and investigate, thinking, "Since I'm already here." He cautiously crouched down, afraid that the woman would go crazy and turn into the same ferocious demon she had just seen, and approached the "Dream Seeker" step by step.

Just as Qiong was about to reach the nearest bushes, another white figure emerged from not far away. "Dream Seeker" immediately showed a look of surprise and rushed towards her like a fledgling returning to its nest.

"Sinadia!"

"It really is Hinadia?!"

When Qiong heard "The Dream Seeker" call out that name, she was startled. Looking at that white-haired, red-haired figure… could it be the so-called Goddess Xena?

"Speaking of which, that 'Dream Seeker' just asked me if I knew about Sinadia..."

There's no need to hide; we can't see you.

The indifferent voice of the "Dream Seeker" came from the sky. Qiong looked up, but saw no sun.

"Did you do this? Who are you?"

The "Dream Seeker's" voice did not answer, so Qiong could only turn her gaze back to the two of them: the "Dream Seeker" was nestled in Hinadia's arms and sat on the large rock they had just been sitting on.

Then, it seemed to be motionless... asleep?

We used to watch the sunrise together often, um... right there. That was Hinadia's special seat.

"So you two have known each other for more than a billion years..."

[A billion years? You just said a billion years, right?!]

Qiong heard a hint of joy in the voice of the "Dream Seeker," and his casual remark seemed to have pleased the "Dream Seeker"... Oh no, I've accidentally missed some time!

"Uh... I meant eleven years, you misheard me."

Do not attempt to deceive the gods!

"I think Hinadia is more like a goddess than you!"

The self-proclaimed god, the "Dream Seeker," started yelling and screaming. Qiong, whose head was buzzing, frowned. The "Dream Seeker" who was snuggling in the arms of the goddess Shen Xina suddenly became unlovable: this neurotic personality might be a cute point in anime, but in reality, it would only make people want to pin her down on their knees, pull down her pants, and give her a good beating.

No, it was a severe beating with a baseball bat—unless she was a female college student.

Speaking of which, the Dream Seeker is gentle and refined. Could this "Dream Seeker" dressed in black and without glasses be called "Reverse Entropy"?

"Maybe I should just call her Anti-Entropy from now on," Qiong thought to herself.

Qiong shook his head. To be honest, he didn't really believe that the Dream Seeker was the Goddess of Mars. In his eyes, the Goddess of Mars should be the goddess Xena. Besides, if a woman with such a dark aura became the Goddess of Mars, wouldn't the Martian civilization be doomed?

Wait, something's not right... Martian civilization seems to be really finished...

"You're right. I'm not worthy. I'm not worthy to be the god of Luo Xing. I've overstepped my bounds. The only god of this star is Hinadia..."

While Qiong was still listening to the "Dream Seeker's" "confession," the "Dream Seeker" in front of her had already lay down on Hinadia's lap, enjoying her gentle lap pillow.

Back then, I would always lean on her shoulder in a spoiled manner. She was always so full of life, always brimming with joyful energy, as if being near her meant I could share in some of it...

Qiong: ...

Why does Sheena radiate maternal glow? I get it, she's a fusion of Martian End of the World, Little March, and Kama.

"Um... I'm sorry, Hinadia, I fell asleep!"

The "Dream Seeker" jumped off Hinadia and apologized repeatedly, but the person being apologized to showed no dissatisfaction; she simply smiled gently.

"Why should I apologize, my little sleepyhead~"

A master Lu Xun from Shenzhou (or Phoenix Continent on Mars) once said that a young girl's skirt can hold all the gentleness and the height of summer, and this is no exaggeration. Qiong feels that Hinadia in a skirt does indeed possess a gentle charm…

"Sigh, Leera is so perfect, it would be even better if she could get rid of this habit of apologizing anytime, anywhere."

The "Dream Seeker," known as Leiera, blushed.

"I...I'm not as good as you say."

"Leera..."

Watching the two interact, Qiong touched her chin.

Okay, he just remembered. This "Dream Seeker" is Leiera, the name of the god that Lithost mentioned. That person is the real God of Luo Xing. Did he just offend someone who can fight Kiana? ...Probably not, right? After all, even someone as powerful as Sa couldn't withstand the power of a single finger from the End of Qi Bao.

【You're surprised? You haven't heard of me, you only know Hinadia?】

"Um, I admit I spoke a little loudly just now. Can't ignorance be excused..."

A true man can bend and stretch. Qiong decisively softened her tone. Although she couldn't beat Kiana, she was just a consciousness now. If she provoked the capricious and neurotic Martian God, what if she ended up in a vegetative state?

[What crime? You are innocent. Hinadia is the true goddess of Luo Xing. She chose this star, ignited the fire buried deep beneath the earth, and gave the barren planet a dancing heart. She watches over life and guards civilization. She loves us wholeheartedly, sincerely revealing her joy before all that is under her protection. She is the most beautiful goddess in the vast universe. Time can never wither her…]

Listening to the Dream Seeker… no, should it be called Leiera? Anyway, after listening to it, Qiong felt that this “beautiful night” had an almost fanatical worship of the “light of faith”: Sinadia chose Mars, Sinadia ignited the flame, Sinadia protected everything, Sinadia’s kindness can never be repaid, without Sinadia we are nothing…

That's not entirely true, after all, during the same period, Earth's evolutionary tree hadn't even shown any signs of sponges yet.

However, contrary to what Qiong had expected, Leiera did not stop; instead, she spoke even more enthusiastically.

[Sennadia is the true deity of Luo Xing! She etched truth and humility into her heart, and thus, ignorant life awakened from chaos, and the sound of blessings resounded throughout the world. She sheltered the past and embraced the bewildered. She loved us with all her heart, escorted us on the right path with noble sacrifices, and bestowed upon us her greatest promise—]

"Destiny? Seriously?!"

Leera didn't answer, but Qiong could tell that Leera was acting like a crazy fan and a fanatical missionary who was trying to promote her idol. Okay, let's put aside anything that might be related to "immortal destiny" for now. Just talking about the attitude of this fanatical fan, can this be a normal god?

"Um, Lord God?"

[I am only Leera, the goddess of Lostar is Sinadia—you come from the future, don't you?!]

"Ah."

Although she didn't know what the god was expecting, Qiong still responded—after all, she also had questions to ask.

[Really? It's actually true?! You really come from a billion years in the future?!]

"Yes, is there a problem?"

No, of course not! That's wonderful, truly wonderful! I can finally summon Sinadia back—

When Qiong heard Leiera's ecstatic voice and the commotion from the other side, he felt a chill run down his spine... Had he said something wrong?

Never mind, just ask the questions first, and lower your expectations...

"Excuse my intrusion... but may I ask, what is your divine power manager or something? Do you know anything about this shadow...?"

Perhaps having gotten the answer she wanted, Reira replied very directly and kindly.

[Do you want to know? It's not exactly a secret, it's just far too weak compared to Sinadia's power, a drop in the ocean... no, not even a drop in the ocean—Lithost, Nahera, if you interfere again, I won't be polite! They're just shadows. Those shadows are nothing more than my scattered shadow stewards.]

Qiong: ...

The shadow disaster that destroyed Martian civilization actually came from the power of the Martian god.

It sounds like this goddess knew the shadow creatures were threatening people's lives, but she did nothing about it?

The boss is the root of all disasters... No wonder he can raise a crazy knight like Lithost. Mars is probably beyond saving.

My stomach... You can't give yourself the door to laziness. I checked, and the amount I owe is truly shocking... I'm willing to make up for it, so I'll do my best... (First step: reduce the number of words in the chapters?)

But the game still has to be played—what? The Pioneers! Come to think of it, after all, this story exists because of you…

Xi Lian could understand, but how did the silly little San Yue suddenly become like she knew everything about treasures?

Never mind, let's prepare for Krystal and see how lucky we are with Heather.
