Honkai Impact 3rd, Play Sky Meteor at the Beginning
Chapter 156
The maid who poured the wine immediately knelt down in fear and kept kowtow. Then a guard came and dragged her down.
Two more maids came up, took new wine bottles and wine, and refilled them.
The captain only felt that his throat was a little dry. Now stargazing makes him feel very unfamiliar.
In order to relieve the tension, he took a sip from the wine glass.
After gradually calming down, the captain noticed one thing.
"By the way, Rita...Is the Prime Minister not here?"
The movement of stargazing suddenly stagnates, and after a moment's pause, she raised her wine glass and made a pair with the sky in the distance, as if drinking from the stars.
"Rita is dead."
After a long while, Star Watcher said in the calmest, but also the most indifferent tone.
Just like her heart, she died with Rita's passing.
The Prime Minister... is dead?
At this moment, not only the captain, but everyone in the question-and-answer space also showed a look of astonishment.
They still know about Rita. They had Rita in the introduction to stargazing before, and in the picture that flashed just now, there is also Rita.
They knew that Rita was the prime minister of the Huang Empire, and at the same time, she was the most trusted and closest person to Star Watchers. The two of them jointly guarded the Huang Empire for thousands of years.
But, Rita is actually dead?
The captain's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief,
"Impossible! Theresa was still asking about Rita's whereabouts just now, didn't she know?"
Stargazing expressionlessly took a sip of wine,
"You must have noticed that you came here three months later than Lonely... In these three months, the world has undergone tremendous changes."
"And the reason for the change is the three years spent alone on the desert island."
After that, as Stargazing explained word by word, the captain and everyone in the question and answer space gradually understood everything.
It turned out that in the three years that Star Watcher left this world, the disaster broke out, and the first attack was the Huang Empire, and Rita, as the prime minister, was naturally responsible for resisting the invasion of the disaster.
After Gao Xing came back, she wanted to use the formation method from a thousand years ago to seal the disaster again, but she no longer had her old friends by her side.
She tried to ask the King of Heroes and the King of Pirates for help, but let alone the reply, even the two envoys who went there were gone.
Hearing this, everyone completely understood why Star Watcher had such a deep resentment towards the Hero King and Pirate King.
However, when Stargazing finally came up with a new sealing formation, and wanted to find Rita and seal the calamity with her...
Everything is too late.
With the sound of stargazing, the picture also became her memory.
Everyone could see that in the raging battlefield, stargazing was like a lost child, anxiously looking for Rita's figure everywhere.
In the end, she finally saw Rita's scythe by the river, and there was no trace of the calamity, only the petals rising and falling along the water.
In the rushing river, Rita's body lay there quietly, as if she was asleep.
Accompanied by the sad music, the calmness in the sound of stargazing, listening to everyone's ears, is as uncomfortable as being cut by a knife.
"Rita was lying in the water, like she fell asleep quietly."
"She has wounds all over her body, but the wounds have long stopped bleeding."
"Gu picked up Rita, her clothes were soaking wet, but her body became so light and light, as if the blood had drained from her body..."
"Looking at the prime minister, Gu suddenly felt that he didn't know her, but Gu didn't know why."
"After thinking about Gu for a long time, I finally understand. Whenever Rita looks at Gu, Gu always feels that she is smiling because her eyes are always smiling."
"But... Gu can't see her eyes anymore."
Looking at the star-gazing star in the picture holding Rita's body quietly, staying from day to night, and waiting from night to dawn, the stillness and sadness emanating from her body can be felt by everyone in the question-and-answer space even across the screen. arrive.
Now everyone understands.
Why does stargazing change so much?
Qiana, who had some criticisms about stargazing just now, has red eyes, not to mention how uncomfortable she is.
"Hey, the truth turned out to be like this..."
Theresa sighed. The most important person left, let alone stargazing, it would be unbearable for anyone.
No wonder her temperament changed drastically, becoming so cruel and indifferent.
"This hero king and pirate king are really not good things!"
Kiana exclaimed angrily, this time she called the right name,
"It doesn't matter if you don't help to send troops, and you also leave the envoys sent by Star Watcher. Isn't it obvious that they want to wait until the Huang Empire is defeated by disasters, and then they will pick up the leaks?"
"It's a shame I thought they were a little pitiful just now!"
"Forehead...."
Fu Hua and Ji Zi looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed.
After all, how can the hero king and the pirate king do this kind of thing with their faces facing them...
"By the way, what about Mr. Assassin?!"
At this moment, the little ancestor seemed to remember something, and suddenly exclaimed.
Hearing what she said, everyone immediately reacted.
Right, what about Mr. Assassin?
The confession of Star Watch to Mr. Assassin that time, but it was not clear that they were a bunch of single dogs.
Since both Xinggao and Rita have obtained immortality and lived for thousands of years, it makes no sense that Mr. Assassin, whom Xinggao likes, could not get immortality, right?
"Mr. Assassin... Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he has never been seen since the beginning."
Bronya said thoughtfully.
This is indeed a bit strange. It can be seen from the attitude of Mr. Assassin from Stargazing last time that Mr. Assassin is definitely a very important person to her, even no less than Rita.
But why didn't he appear in the video this time? Not even a message.
"Could it be... That Mr. Assassin died a thousand years ago, when stargazing sealed alien beasts?"
Jizi speculated.
"That's not right either."
Tesla said,
"If Mr. Assassin died during the seal battle, then why didn't Star Watch make a wish to let him come back to life? Star Watch can't be the kind of person who would give up resurrecting his beloved for the sake of his longevity."

Chapter 248 Stargazing and the captain have long known each other?
"So, Mr. Assassin died in a disaster after the alien beast was sealed?"
Raiden Mei guessed.
"It's possible, but it's still the same question, why didn't Stargazer use the wishing machine to resurrect Mr. Assassin? And this time too, Rita died, Stargazer should find the wishing machine to bring Rita back to life, and It's not that she gave up on herself, she couldn't have imagined this."
Theresa mused,
"Could it be that.... what limitations does this wishing machine have? For example, like the Seven O's, there is a cooldown for wishing? Or it cannot be resurrected?"
"Well, my inference is the same."
Einstein nodded and said,
"This so-called wishing machine must have some limitation or price, so that the star-gazing can no longer wish to bring people back to life, so she was so desperate that her temperament changed greatly."
"what!"
Suddenly, Kiana screamed as if she had remembered something.
"Stargazing, she drank just now!"
Because they were immersed in the stories told by Stargazing, everyone forgot for a while how Stargazing died.
Hearing what Kiana said at this moment, everyone reacted.
No wonder Stargazing just took a sip and his expression changed drastically, and he threw the wine bottle on the ground.
Obviously, she has discovered that the wine is poisonous.
However, what puzzled everyone was that since she had found out that the wine was poisonous, why didn't she have the imperial doctor come over?
Are you still pretending that nothing happened?
What is this...
In the picture, the memory picture is over. Stargazing holds a wine glass and calmly said,
"You may have guessed the story later, Gu Shi wanted to avenge the Prime Minister."
"Just now, I killed the pirate king and the hero king alone, but... there is still one person who has not yet been killed."
"No, it won't be Theresa..."
The captain swallowed and guessed anxiously.
"Of course not. Why did Gu kill a crazy person?"
Stargazing shook his head,
"She didn't believe that Rita was dead, and she always wanted to sing to her. Huang Kingdom can't have such a ruler, so I forced her to step down."
"At the same time, I asked her to sing to me alone, and she was not allowed to see Rita. In this way, it would not be surprising to her that she could not see Rita... After all, I imprisoned her."
After speaking, Star Watcher drank the wine in the wine glass, and for the first time a faint blush appeared on her face.
Afterwards, she changed the subject, took out the chessboard, and wanted to play a chess game with the captain.
The captain didn't know what she was going to do, but he got off with her anyway.
The two continued their conversation while playing chess.
"It's ironic, because with the death of the Prime Minister, everything that has not been done in hundreds of years was completed in three months."
"I always remember what the stone man said, [From now on, the two of you will have immortality. If there is no external disaster, you will live forever.]"
"But immortality...not immortality."
As the chess game gradually fell into a battle, Stargazing's breathing became heavier, but his eyes gradually became brighter, not as cold as before.
"Mr. Stargazing, do you want to take a break?"
Noticing that Stargazer's breathing was getting heavier, the captain said worriedly.
"It's okay..."
Guanxing shook her head and refused, but after playing a few more chess moves, her movements stopped.
"...Captain."
"What's the matter, Mr. Star Watcher?"
"Thank you, I'm willing to play this game with Gu. Xiang five to seven... Captain, you lost."
It was as if he tried his best to speak, and at the moment when the voice fell, Guanxing's raised hand fell weakly, knocking the wine bottle to the ground.
And her body also lay softly on the seat.
"Stargazing!!!"
The captain stood up abruptly, and the guards immediately surrounded him when they heard the movement, with the spears in their hands aimed at the captain.
"You all step back! Tell him if you have something to say. You are not allowed to take a step forward without an order from Gu, or you will be killed!"
Gao Xing gasped for breath, barely supporting the table with one hand, but still pointed at the chessboard with the other.
"I know I lost, Mr. Stargazing, please tell me what happened..."
Stargazing sighed a long time, then smiled.
