Chapter 497: The Fool's Gambit
【Kiana: Um... does Su actually like playing this too?】
【Herta: Guys from higher dimensions all like playing cards and chess. I'm afraid that man called Su also needs such skills after arriving in a higher dimension.】
【Kosma: It really does have a... feeling of a master living in seclusion.】
【Bronya: But isn't she already the Eye of Heavenly Wisdom? Are there still playstyles she doesn't understand?】
【Stelle: So, the person who becomes Su's opponent should also be Vita... after all, she possesses the corresponding Wings of Omniscience.】
【Otto: Oh ho~~ If that's the case, then the outcome of the next match will be interesting.】
【Dr. MEI: Heavenly Wisdom and Omniscience, whose specifications are higher? This is indeed a question that makes one curious.】
Outside the light screen, in the Valkyrie dormitory of St. Freya Academy, the night had grown deep.
But in the video, Su seemed particularly obsessed with the 【Fool's Cards】.
This aroused the girls' confusion.
"Could it be that this Fool's card really contains the secret to certain victory?" Kiana's voice carried a hint of bewilderment.
Bronya stood to the side, her gaze cold and stern, also drawn in by this mystery.
"It is indeed puzzling. But perhaps, just as everyone said in the barrage, gods of higher dimensions, those old grandfathers in TV dramas, all like to play chess and cards to pass that infinitely long time." She responded briefly and forcefully.
Raiden Mei said in a soft and profound voice.
"To be taken so seriously by two wise figures like Vita and Su. Perhaps the outcome of the card game will determine certain things."
Immortal Fu Hua shook her head gently, a look of contemplation appearing between her brows. "Information is scarce at the moment, making it difficult to make an accurate analysis." Her words revealed a sense of helplessness.
Kiana nodded silently, the curiosity and unwillingness in her heart weaving into complex emotions. "Su's thoughts are truly impossible to fathom!"
On the other side of the light screen, in the conference room of the Moth of the Fire in the previous civilization era, the atmosphere was equally tense and subtle.
Griseo's eyes sparkled with curiosity, her body leaning forward as if she wanted to swallow the entire screen into her eyes.
"Griseo wants to know how this Fool's card is actually played!" Her voice was filled with a longing for the unknown.
Vill-V expressed her confusion concisely and clearly: "Don't understand." Her gaze drifted across the screen, attempting to find an answer.
When everyone's gaze converged on Elysia, she shrugged helplessly, her smile carrying a hint of apology. "I don't understand either~" Her voice was soft and candid.
Eden spoke steadily, attempting to point the way for everyone: "Perhaps the follow-up of the video will reveal the answer for us." However, her heart was also filled with the unknown and anticipation.
Returning to the video,
The video had been edited to a certain extent.
The outcome of the card game was decided very quickly.
Regarding the strength of Vita, Sparkle, and the "Cabbage Head" trio.
Su had clearly failed; he was seen bowing his head and sighing with emotion.
"Hmm, I lost. Because I was in the darkness, did I see things too shallowly..."
Unexpectedly, even in a higher dimension, possessing even more unimaginable power.
Su had actually still lost in the card game.
However, it is also possible... that it is because he is not skilled at these 【Fool's Cards】.
It is also possible that Su is unwilling to use the power of the 【Eye of Heavenly Wisdom】 in these games.
It was the "Cabbage Head" on this side, however.
Looking at the regretfully defeated Su, she made a sound of confusion.
"That's not the problem, is it."
However, while the "Cabbage Head" was speaking.
Su was still immersed in the previous failure.
No!
It should be said... Su was thinking about where exactly he had failed.
Is his own calculation power really inferior to the opponent's?
And looking at Su, who was completely lost in thought.
Vita, on the side, made a teasing sound.
"Looks like someone who can't multitask."
"No choice, let's go find the Doctor to confirm the method for dispelling the darkness."
As she spoke, after Vita cleverly inquired and found the method to dispel the darkness, the cabin suddenly brightened, illuminating every corner.
Su slowly looked around, a light of emotion flickering in his eyes, his voice echoing in the quiet space.
"Oh, the room has suddenly brightened up; it feels quite nice."
Watching such a "troublesome" Su, Sparkle on the side secretly complained.
"This person must have annoyed quite a few people in his daily life..."
The "Cabbage Head" also made a sound of emotion.
"Sigh... anyway, it's good that the matter is resolved."
【March 7th: Uh... I am completely confused about the ins and outs of this whole thing. Bai Feng is always unwilling to give us the full picture of the story.】
【Stelle: Because it involves other, more stories. That's why quite a few parts of the story were hidden, right.】
【Kiana: Speaking of which, why is Su trapped here? Isn't he a being of a higher dimension? And why did he descend into the Honkai: Star Rail World?】
【Herrscher of Sentience: Besides, didn't that guy say he possesses the 【Eye of Heavenly Wisdom】? How could he lose his way in the darkness?】
【Raiden Mei: Perhaps it's a fan-made video? Or it could just be a representative form of Su.】
【Dr. MEI: Not clear... let's continue watching the follow-up of the video.】
【Vill-V: On this point, I am also full of curiosity.】
【Pardofelis: But, isn't the video over now? I hadn't even understood it yet, and the video just stopped abruptly.】
【Elysia: Heh, all of this came too suddenly, catching people off guard.】
In the live broadcast room.
Bai Feng: "Alright, audience, are you satisfied with the video just now?"
"Perhaps everyone has some doubts in their hearts regarding Su's performance."
"But in reality... this is only a part of his consciousness."
"Moreover, he didn't really show his calculation power."
"However, it is worth mentioning... actually, the Su at the beginning, his power was inferior to Vita's."
"This point is a bit counter-intuitive."
"But it is also a fact... because Vita entered the Sea of Quanta countless years earlier than Su."
"In terms of volume, Vita is definitely higher than Su."
"Back in the day, Su's consciousness entered the Sea of Quanta, and after being discovered by Vita, he was chased and slashed. Nowadays, Vita has killed the Sa and become a god, while Su has already ascended to a higher dimension and doesn't play with Vita anymore."
"So... regarding this question, everyone doesn't need to worry."
"And next... the next video... I want to introduce another familiar character to the audience, introduce a different side of him, introduce the 【Pure Love War God】 side of Otto!!!"
177. The true peak of Honkai Impact 3rd, the 【Pseudo-God Otto】 who transcends Aeons!
【Kiana: Ah? Otto is a Pure Love War God? What kind of spoof title is this? How could he possibly be a Pure Love War God!!!】
【Otto: Oh my~~ This is truly a misunderstanding. Actually... I really am the man in this world who understands love the most.】
【Theresa: Uh uh... Grandfather, even I feel embarrassed when you say that.】
【Bronya: But Bai Feng never says things without basis... this title should have some basis.】
【Himeko: But after watching the previous video, it's still hard to associate Otto with the words "pure love".】
【March 7th: +1】
【Stelle: After all, there are too many beastly behaviors.】
【Welt: No, although Otto is a pure villain. But in a sense... he is indeed "pure love".】
【Otto: Oh? You are actually speaking up for me? Didn't you hate me the most?】
【Welt: Emotions are emotions. Facts are facts.】
【Raiden Mei: Let's listen to how Bai Feng explains it.】
In the live broadcast room.
Bai Feng, in order to prevent the audience from feeling that giving Otto the title of 【Pure Love War God】 was too outrageous.
So, he also made up for Otto by saying.
"In the story after Otto shot Immortal Fu Hua..."
