"Bang!" the crisp barrel of the gun rang out violently, accompanied by the sound of a corpse with a faint putrid smell falling to the ground...

"The early dead are really ugly," Kiana shouted, shaking the 'fairy bow' in her hand. The early dead are a bit similar to the zombies in the movie, and the dead are more like their advanced evolution....

"We're in the heart of the town now, aren't we?" said Mei as she thrust the knife back into the scabbard... The bluestone brick road is flanked by various European-style buildings, and the shop doors stand here one after another... It's not hard to see that it was quite prosperous before the collapse happened...

"Bronya, have you found your detector~ It's very tiring to kill the soldiers..."Kiana stretched out, stretched out her hand and stabbed Bronya's waist and said...

The street in front of them had been cleared by them, and the dense stumps of the dead were scattered all over the ground... The only advantage of the dead is probably that there is not much blood in the body, so this scene is not so terrifying...

"The coordinates that Mr. Himeko gave us are here, but I don't see anything, is there a problem with our positioning system?" There was only a single figure in sight of the dilapidated shops, and the sound of their battle just now did not attract people...

"Why don't we go somewhere else?" Mei suggested... Kiana's little face collapsed, who was trying to touch the fish next to her... I'm going to go three in and three out of the dead group again...

"Sister Mei, wait a minute..."Bronya, who had been silent, suddenly stopped her voice and said...

"What's wrong, Bronya?" asked Mei Yi, who had a white-haired ball hanging from her right arm, looking back in confusion...

"According to the rabbit's life detector, there is a life reaction 50 meters to the east..."With her feet suspended in the void, Bronya manipulated the suspended virtual 3D list in front of her and said lightly...

"East ?..." Mei looked in the direction Bronya was pointing, and it was just an ordinary toy store with a closed door...

Mei Yi dragged the white-haired dumplings like a drag oil bottle to the front of the toy store... If it weren't for Bronya pointing it out, she wouldn't have noticed the specialness of this shop... The gate turned out to be an anti-theft door, and I don't know what the owner thinks...

"Is there anyone, please?" Mei Yi knocked on the door and whispered... Of course, there was still no answer...

"Mei Yi doesn't have to be so gentle.... "Raising the 'Fairy Bow' in her hand, she casually gave the door lock a shot, and Kiana, who kicked out with a chic and skillful kick, said calmly... With a roar, the security door opened at the feet of the white-haired dango... So Kiana, she just hates cultural people...

"Found it!" Kiana, who glanced at the store, said with a happy look at Mei Yi, who poked her head out behind her...

The cupboards in the toy store are full of all kinds of toy dolls, but there may have been something wrong when the collapse occurred, so many of the puppets fell to the ground, and there were even many puppets on the ground covered with a layer of blood... And what is a little strange is that there is a wheelchair parked in the middle of the store, and a girl in the wheelchair sits there quietly and seems to have fallen into a coma...

"I'll confirm..."Kiana took out her mobile phone and took a picture of the wheelchair girl and wittily sent it to Himeko, who was waiting for their message...

"Wake up... Wake up..."Without paying attention to Kiana's movements, Mei Yi reached out and grabbed the wheelchair girl's shoulder and shook it gently...

"Sister Meiyi, don't worry, this girl is just overly frightened and fainted..."Bronya briefly looked at the girl in the wheelchair and said calmly... With mercenary experience, she's half a doctor...

"........ woo.." A wheelchair girl with black hair, but a strange blue hair color on the inside, moaned before slowly opening a pair of black eyes...

"Who are you?!" The double-haired girl who didn't react was full of fear in her eyes...

"Hello, we're a Valkyrie team sent by the Far Eastern Branch to look for you, Miss Wendy..."Mei Yi, who took out her Valkyrie ID, said softly...

"You've finally found it..."The voice of Himeko of the Infinite Tower came out of the communicator in Kiana's hand, and through the video conversation, Himeko could also see the girl next to Mei... She was relieved that she would find it...

"According to the information just sent by the Oceania branch, this young lady is indeed the holder of the [Longing Gem], Miss Wendy..."Himeko's face relaxed slightly...

"That's... My name is Wendy..."Maybe it's because everyone is still a stranger, the girl named Wendy said timidly, the slightly longer bangs covering her forehead made her look a little gloomy, not as sunny as a certain white-haired ball...

"Hebrian is about to arrive in Queenstown, let me explain..."Himeko cleared her throat and said...

"A few years ago, during an experiment conducted in the Oceania branch, the [Longing Gem] was transplanted into Miss Wendy's leg, and the Honkai Energy Crystal was combined with her calf bone, hoping to gain the same power as the lawyer..."

"In that case, Miss Wendy should have a lot of power, but she looks weak now..."Maybe it's because she is also a fellow gem owner, Mei Yi said a little excitedly...

But like she said... Wendy in front of her looks like a dead house with a lot of money... Pale and bloodless... It's clear that it's not someone who has much power...

"Although Wendy was the best Valkyrie in the Oceania branch at the time, she once thought that she would become the fourth S-class Valkyrie in the next generation, but unfortunately, she couldn't control its power..."Himeko said in a slightly regretful tone...

"It's because I'm not strong enough, not only can't I control the power of [Longing for Gems], but because of the proximity, I can't even move my legs..."Wendy whispered with gloomy eyes... It's like a kid who did something wrong...

"How can this be...."It's also the first time that Mei has heard that she can't move because of the gem..."Then why don't you take the approach out, because of this, Miss Wendy can only be in a wheelchair now!" Mei is a little angry...

"There's no way..."Himeko said with a blank expression, "In almost all media, the form of the [Longing Gem] will be extremely unstable and even explode, but in Wendy's body, it can stabilize... That's why Wendy was chosen as the bearer..."

It's like Himeko has lifted open a scarred wound to reveal the blood and dirt underneath... This is a fact and helplessness, and it's no secret ... After all, Destiny is not a charity, and that's the dark side of it...

"In other words, in order to preserve the crystals, Destiny used Miss Wendy's body as a container? It's too much!" Mei said loudly with a glare... Destiny sacrificed a girl's flower years like this, so that she could spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair?!

After listening to Himeko's words, even Kiana, who was temporarily offline and linked to the monkey, and Bronia, who was silent, also had a resistance mentality...

But without waiting for the two of them to make a move, Himeko frowned and said loudly..."Okay, there's no point in arguing about this kind of thing here, it's not a matter of the Far East Branch, it's an order issued by the headquarters..."

"Now, take Wendy to the designated area and wait for Hubelion to arrive..."Himeko said in a deep voice, she slightly regretted telling Kiana about this...

However, it's like someone who is about to leave college and enter society... They must realize that the world is not so beautiful, and that the dark side of Destiny is still not even visible...

So, Himeko hopes that they can understand how happy they are now... Then work your way up... 8)
