Honkai Impact: Grandma Pine Sparrow is still chasing me!

Chapter 140 Theresa: I'll beat you until your father acknowledges you!

"Okay, I'm going then!"

"and many more!"

Theresa looked at Walter.

"Walter, you go with him, and you must bring them back to me!"

"Headmaster, I want to go too!"

"Bronya too."

Behind the four, Raiden Mei and Bronya had been listening the whole time. From their conversation, they both came to the same conclusion: this man was Kiana's father!

"Excuse me, ladies."

Siegfried looked helpless.

"I don't think the small planes that this ship carries can carry eight people at a time."

Walter nodded; in fact, four people were already a bit of a stretch.

"Mei, Bronya, trust your teacher, we will definitely bring them back safely."

-----------------

On the island, a large number of Honkai Beasts charged towards the five. Himeko wielded her greatsword, trying her best to reduce the number of Honkai Beasts on both sides; Sora set up her Flame Spear to block the front, occasionally striking with her staff and throwing a hat, temporarily blocking the front; while Kiana was at the back, constantly firing at the Honkai Beast horde and protecting Fu Hua and Xing in the middle.

It should be said that the three's resistance was quite effective, but unfortunately the Honkai Beasts seemed endless, while their stamina had its limits.

"One after another, it just never ends!"

Even with superhuman physique and combat skills, the Valkyrie is still human. Himeko, who was the most exhausted among the three, was the first to show signs of fatigue.

After briefly repelling another horde of Honkai beasts, Sora suggested retreating to more defensive terrain.

"Himeko-neechan, let's retreat to the cave!"

However, his proposal for a strategic retreat was immediately rejected by Himeko.

"No, it seems there are Honkai Beasts inside the cave since earlier. If we retreat in, we might never come out again!"

"There's no way out either?"

Qiong was in a dilemma. Himeko was running out of stamina, and he felt that he was also running out of fire: he had already burned a lot of fire fighting with Vaitan before, and with this level of consumption now, he was afraid that if a few more waves came, everyone would be finished!

Is there any way to solve this problem? The only thing he can think of is to sacrifice himself, get away from everyone, and use his flame spear to taunt the Honkai Beasts... but he doesn't want to die! Is there any other way?

Are we going to die?

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, Xing no longer displayed her previous arrogant "I am the boss" attitude, but instead showed some of the emotions that a girl of her age should have.

"I don't want to die! There are so many damn bastards in the world, why me of all people—"

"A communication call is coming in? Silence!"

Himeko, wanting a quiet environment for the communication, snapped at Anzu. With Fu Hua unconscious, the three of them, carrying two others and unsure of their way out, depended on this communication. "Quiet down!"

However, Himeko's reprimands not only failed to subdue Anzu, but instead made her even more agitated.

"I can't die! I haven't wiped out all the scum of destiny yet, and I haven't fulfilled my mother's wish. Who will take care of my bunch of brats without me? No, I can't..."

Kiana was also unhappy after being scolded by Anzu.

"Kid, if you keep insulting us, we're not going to take care of you anymore!"

"Alright, since things are like this, let's all think of a solution."

I've heard that patting a child's head can calm them down, so Qiong decided to reach out and pat Xing.

But he didn't expect that Xing was a mad dog.

As soon as he reached out, Xing bit down on Qiong's hand.

"Grey Hair, how are you! You brat, what are you doing!"

"Aaaaaaah! Let go! Let go! Are you a dog?! Ah...ah?"

Qiong screamed in pain and instinctively tried to hit Xing.

But in the next moment, he felt no pain?

While there was no pain, a cool sensation seemed to flow from Xing's teeth into Qiong's chest.

"Let go of my mouth!"

Kiana punched An on the head, knocking her unconscious.

However, at her own wounds and where her teeth were separated, the sharp-eyed Qiong saw "black energy" that had solidified into a tangible form.

Damn, I almost forgot how the baseball bat came out! Could this be Anne Mar's fear?

"Now I know what it means to have good deeds go unrewarded! If it weren't for her connection to Bronya, I really wouldn't want to get involved with her! Gray Hair, let me bandage you! Where's the wound?"

Kiana cursed and swore as she hurriedly pulled out a bandage from her pocket—the one from Sora had been used on Anzu.

"Don't worry, Kiana, I have no wounds."

Qiong stared at her raised hand, turning it over and over to look at it, but she couldn't find any wound.

"Impossible! I saw you bleeding!"

If it weren't for the cone-shaped teeth marks and the blood dripping from the side, who would have guessed that Qiong had just been viciously bitten by the little girl lying on the ground?

"There's no best option yet. Don't worry about me. Focus on stalling until the rescue team arrives!"

In the past, a large number of Honkai Beasts would have already rushed over, but this time they didn't.

"Kid Qiong, don't worry, no Honkai Beasts are coming over!"

Himeko's reply caught their attention. Looking up at the Honkai Beasts, they noticed they had all stopped and were hesitant to move forward; there were all sorts of Honkai Beasts of varying levels. The group of Honkai Beasts formed a semi-circle about twenty paces away from them, refusing to approach.

"What's going on here?"

"Who should I ask?"

Qiong's eyes widened, and Kiana looked equally bewildered.

"Why don't you give it a try?"

But Qiong had a slight suspicion. He tried to flick the warm blood at the Honkai Beast not far away, but the originally aggressive Honkai Beast turned around and fled.

"Qiong boy, your blood?"

Himeko looked at Sora with a complicated expression. Could it be that the blood of a quasi-Herrscher or a Herrscher helps to fight against Honkai?

"I don't know, but now we have a solution!"

The unexpected solution filled Qiong with joy, but soon Himeko's hand chopped him on the head.

"Don't even think about risking your life and bleeding to be a hero, the rescue is coming soon!"

Upon hearing the word "rescue," Kiana jumped up with joy.

"Really? Aunt Flo finally came? That's great!"

"Hmm, but it seems there's something else? Kiana, come here, Theresa wants to see you."

"Looking for me? We can talk about it later!"

A puzzled Kiana took the communicator from Himeko.

"Hey, Auntie, it's me, Kiana. Is there anything I can't say when I get back?"

"Of course, it's something very important!"

Theresa smiled on the other end of the phone. Siegfried and Walter would arrive at the coordinates in five minutes. They actually thought they could keep this from their daughter? Don't even think about it!

"Get ready, my dear Kiana-chan."

Theresa's smile grew even brighter.

"Your damned father will be flying over to pick you up soon! If he doesn't acknowledge you as his daughter, beat him until he does!"

After ending the call, Theresa's smile turned into an uncontrollable AK, just waiting to see the good show of father-daughter affection!

"Headmaster, didn't Mr. Siegfried say..."

Yae Sakura's subtle questioning didn't bother Theresa at all.

"What right does he have to say anything? This is the Hyperion, what right does he have to tell me what to say?"

"but……"

Yae Sakura hesitated, then decided against it, thinking it best not to say anything and risk making her angry.

"But the headmaster."

Raiden Mei and Bronya also gathered around Theresa.

Why wouldn't Kiana's father tell her that he was right beside her?

"How would I know? I don't care why. I only know that someone has to take responsibility and be a good father!"
