I'm in Honkai Impact's Infinite Abyss!

Seemingly drawn by the upheaval in the world, the bustling sounds of people could be heard coming from the small town as residents emerged from their homes, staring blankly at the purple sky.

Luo Lin took out a Honkai detection device.

Although the Honkai energy levels around were high, they hadn't reached concentrations lethal enough to cause Honkai corruption, at most causing dizziness and discomfort.

Nevertheless, it was better to evacuate the residents here for safety.

Soon, sharp-eyed Luo Lin spotted several futuristic-looking helicopters approaching from afar, their engines gradually roaring louder as they landed in the open spaces around the town, with several familiar Valkyries running over.

"Captain Ragnar? You're here in person?"

"Mhm." Ragnar nodded hastily. "I also brought some Valkyries from the Belarus branch to quickly evacuate nearby residents... By the way, you mentioned earlier that Siegfried left town with his daughter?"

"Yes." Luo Lin nodded.

"Could it be that he found something..." Ragnar glanced at Siegfried's house, pondered briefly, then shook his head. "Forget it, let's return to deal with the Honkai beasts created by this Honkai outbreak..."

"Luo Lin!!"

A stooped figure walked over from the distance; it was Grandma Dalia. She looked at Ragnar and the well-equipped Valkyries behind him with vigilant eyes, shouting loudly, "Who are you?! What do you want?!"

"Grandma Dalia..." Luo Lin smiled bitterly, quickly stepping forward to support her. "These are my friends..."

"Friends? Luo Lin, you're not being deceived, are you?"

"Grandma, something big happened nearby..." Luo Lin said, "It's... dangerous. It's better for you to go to a safe place with our friends."

Almost everyone's phones received emergency evacuation messages from the operators, instructing them to follow the guidance of professionals and head to safe places for refuge. Grandma Dalia looked around, watching the Valkyries nearby using megaphones to inform residents door-to-door. Further away, slightly ordinary-looking buses were speeding towards them.

The old woman looked at Luo Lin thoughtfully and suddenly asked, "Luo Lin, you're not actually a painter, are you?"

"...Mhm, I'm actually responsible for handling these kinds of situations."

"Oh... Like the disaster in 2000, right..."

In 2000, during the Second Honkai eruption. Although the disaster happened in the sparsely populated Siberia, its impact was very wide-ranging, with almost the entire Europe and Asia observing abnormal weather phenomena. Grandma Dalia sighed and squeezed Luo Lin's hand tightly.

"Little Luo Lin... Come back alive..."

"Mhm."

Handing the old lady over to the nearby town residents who had come to help, Luo Lin turned around and boarded the Valkyrie's helicopter. As the door closed amidst the snowstorm, the girl's face sank into shadow under the cabin's lights.

"You got along quite well with the residents of the town..." Ragnar leaned back in his seat, staring at Luo Lin.

"Ah, Captain..."

"So we must do our best to deal with the Honkai, protect everything we have... Right?"

"Mhm."

The aircraft's speed was fast, and they returned to the Belarus branch in just a few minutes. The operations meeting room was bustling, with Ragnar sitting in the middle, Luo Lin assisting from the side, and Dr. Miriam sweating profusely as she operated her personal terminal, synchronizing data on the map. Soon, densely packed red dots were marked, each indicating high-intensity Honkai energy reactions, i.e., Honkai beasts. These could only give a rough idea; it was impossible to determine exactly how many Honkai beasts were in each red dot.

"They're converging."

On the vast land, the Honkai beasts gradually gathered, forming a force that couldn't be underestimated, then marching straight towards areas with human activity.

Dr. Miriam said, "No, this kind of convergence means there's an advanced Honkai beast, they already have a commander!"

"For an outbreak of this scale, it's strange if there aren't advanced Honkai beasts." Ragnar stood up and asked, "Is there a way to locate the position of the advanced Honkai beast?"

Dr. Miriam's face turned ugly. "The Honkai energy detection devices we deployed before can do it, but I have to go personally to calibrate the instruments."

"Then go, I'll send a team of Valkyries to protect you." Ragnar selected a few people, "Esther, Himeko... Luo Lin, you go too, keep in touch at all times."

"Yes!"

The named Valkyries responded in unison.

Himeko? She's still around?

"As for the others, form operational teams as usual, we'll take helicopters to intercept and eliminate those Honkai beasts!"

Ragnar nodded at the responsible person of the Belarus branch, "You also take action together, providing support."

The local Valkyrie nodded, "Understood, Captain Ragnar."

Everyone sprang into action, the gates of the Belarus branch's arsenal opened, rows of weapons, equipment, and supplies were carried onto transport planes by Valkyries, and the lights of armored vehicles and off-road vehicles illuminated the entire base. A few minutes later, the planes took off and the convoy set off. The Valkyries gripped their weapons, some nervous, some relaxed, but none faltered. The Schicksal, the machine to combat the Honkai, was operating at full speed, roaring forward.

North America, Entropy Research Institute.

"Dr. Einstein, Dr. Tesla!"

A lab-coated staff member hurriedly opened the door of the research lab, waving a piece of paper in his hand and shouting, "This is the message sent back by our operatives in Eastern Europe, a major Honkai outbreak has occurred in Eastern Europe!"

"Eastern Europe?"

The scientist with short blue hair looked up, surprise flickering across her cold face.

Liesel Albert Einstein.

Knocking on the door of the inner room, inside was a companion who was carefully studying data, completely unaware of the outside world. The companion put down the terminal in her hand, irritably rubbing her red twin tails.

"What's up, mop-head?"

"There's been a major Honkai outbreak in Eastern Europe, Dr. Tesla."

"Ah!?"

Tesla jumped up from her chair, quickly asking, "What's the situation?"

The staff member handed the paper to the two scientists, and they read the message carefully.

Putting down the paper, Tesla said uncertainly, "It seems, according to previous clues, we speculated that Siegfried is over there, right...?"

"If a Honkai outbreak occurs, he definitely won't sit still."

"But, Eastern Europe is the old territory of Schicksal, right?! Isn't he afraid of being captured?"

"Kaslana's people won't hesitate in the face of Honkai." Einstein concluded.

"Bring out our new airship, the one with the stealth function. This operation isn't suitable for making a big fuss; we need to act cautiously and try to find him before Schicksal catches him!"
