Honkai: Man(Sludge) From Future

Kiana felt that her current state wasn't right.

She discovered that she could "see" a world she couldn't see before.

Her body was changing, a change that confused Kiana, and at the same time made her brain experience a certain degree of mental slowdown.

The world in her eyes was slowing down. Eyes of different species gradually opened on her skin, allowing her to see slow-motion like a fly, be more sensitive to light like a gecko, see more colors like a spider, observe heat sources like a snake, and simultaneously focus on the people around her like a bird...

Kiana easily dodged the surrounding attacks. Every angle was under her gaze, and her body structure became increasingly bizarre.

The way people looked at her also continuously shifted from initial shock to fear.

Kiana didn't realize that during the process of using her body, she hadn't fully developed its capabilities. All of her current actions were merely driving this body to continuously integrate the existing characteristics of other creatures, thus completing a multi-integrated biological form.

She couldn't yet completely drive it to create new tissue.

For example, the 'nose' was a very simple and crude imitation of an animal's nose using tentacles, senselessly stacking olfactory receptor cells.

But even so, she was powerful to an unbelievable degree.

'How disgusting...'

Kiana's head received a jolt. She had never smelled such complex odors in the world before, and almost passed out.

In Bronya's eyes, the current Raiden Mei was becoming increasingly terrifying.

'She's constantly getting stronger, seems to be adapting to her new body...'

The small figure aimed her sniper rifle at 'Raiden Mei' from afar. She couldn't understand why Raiden Mei had turned into this form.

Fear, strangeness, and an unsettling feeling.

'Crap, she saw me!'

An accidental reflection from her scope exposed Bronya's location. Kiana, very familiar with firearms, quickly noticed that someone was sniping her.

Countless eyes simultaneously focused on Bronya.

In that instant, Bronya felt like someone had suddenly yanked her scalp.

She threw down her rifle in horror and turned to run without hesitation.

But the Raiden Mei at this moment wasn't the original Raiden Mei. She was Kiana, who had adapted to her new body amidst chaos.

A black, sturdy tentacle suddenly ripped through the clothes on her back and extended out.

Her winter school uniform was like paper in her hands.

She learned from Spider-Man, swinging between the tall buildings.

'The muscles in my legs are changing, my bones are as strong as alloys, my body is as light as a bullet shooting out of a gun.'

'So there really was someone monitoring Raiden Mei? Is it them?'

The flexible tentacle turned into rubber, directly launching Kiana.

Bronya rolled and slid down the building, with Project Bunny pulling her quickly away from the building she had been hiding in.

The loud sound of the building collapsing caused cold sweat to break out on her forehead.

'What is that thing?'

'A Herrscher? Doesn't look like it... there's no Honkai energy reaction on her.'

'But... then what is it?'

Just as Bronya was thinking, a series of inexplicable small black balls suddenly shot out of the room she had just been in and headed in her direction.

"Project Bunny...?!"

These black balls didn't directly attack her. Instead, they all attacked the area around her body.

"Crap!"

Bronya's years of experience as an assassin told her that the current situation had reached its most dangerous point, but it was already too late.

She slammed Project Bunny into the black balls.

But the black balls scattered like water droplets the moment she attacked. The black liquid landed on her body, a slight stinging sensation followed…

Bronya felt like her heart had been suddenly grabbed and pulled by something. The black liquid turned into needles and pierced into her body.

'I'm going to die! I'm going to die! I'm going to die!'

She had no time to block it. The black liquid was splattered all over her, even cutting off her limbs wouldn't be enough to handle this.

'My body...'

Bronya's head spun and she collapsed.

The entire contact time was less than twenty seconds. Kiana had captured Bronya with ease, almost in the blink of an eye.

"That was too weak..."

"No, it's that this body is too strong."

"What's going on? Why do I have no idea what kind of poison I used?"

Kiana scratched her head. She had simply thought for a moment and easily completed all the following actions.

"Can my mind no longer control my actions? Does this body have an auto-pilot function? What kind of environment do future people have to live in to design such bizarre functions into their bodies?"

She complained as she used her tentacles to pick up the little loli.

"A child should not learn to use guns..."

She trailed off, obviously remembering that she herself was no older than the girl when she started using guns.

"Put that girl down!"

Because the distance wasn't far, someone quickly caught up.

It was clear that these people weren't the local layabouts that usually clocked in and out of their jobs.

Looking at the symbols on their clothes, two of them had symbols that looked like silver wings.

The leader seemed to be a woman, though she was wearing some strange and revealing clothing.

Kiana tilted her head, looking at the newcomers, not understanding why they still dared to block her way.

She shook Bronya with her tentacle, and after confirming that she was breathing normally, she turned to face the newcomers.

"You guys haven't run away yet?"

"Or are you the ones who implanted the gem in my body?"

'Raiden Mei's' words confused the Valkyries who had arrived. They didn't know what she was talking about.

They had just come to test the opponent's combat power.

"What are you talking about?!"

The Valkyrie's face revealed a bewildered expression. She didn't understand why Raiden Mei would suddenly mention gems and such.

Kiana, for some reason, could easily tell from her heartbeat and scent that the other party wasn't lying.

'If things keep going like this, who can fight me?!'

'I am simply too strong!'

Kiana was shocked, realizing that she had already reached the peak of humanity 130,000 years into the future.

She had nothing left to fear.

But her words had already reached their intended destination through Bronya's communication device and the Valkyries' communication device.

"That's strange... so it wasn't you?"

'Raiden Mei's' tentacle scratched her head, thinking about what method she should use to provoke the people behind the scenes.

Her world-shaking wisdom was a flash of inspiration. She immediately realized what she should say.

"Although I don't know if you really don't know, I've already handed over the gem in my body to another person who is more suitable."

"Well, that's it, goodbye."

Kiana's body turned into a liquid, wrapping around Bronya. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the city's sewers.

She was getting more and more used to traveling through the sewers.
