Honkai Impact: Grandma Pine Sparrow is still chasing me!

Chapter 250 "Infiltration"

The seemingly frail pink-haired girl appears to prove an eight-character adage: the pinker the hair, the fiercer the fight.

The smile on her face might have had the power to heal hearts, yet she was defeated by the Valkyries who came at her shouts of "Hah!" and "Ha!"...

Seeing the several Valkyries fall, Coralie gasped. Although they had launched a surprise attack, catching the enemy off guard, the intensity of the attack...

It won't change the overall situation.

Once the Valkyries realized that close-quarters combat was not going to be advantageous, almost all of them opted for a strategic retreat after a brief period of chaos. Schicksal's Valkyrie reinforcements also stopped attacking directly and instead surrounded the Third Airport, with only the mech units still on the offensive.

"This can't go on."

Smashing it with a single blow probably means it's a mass-produced knock-off of the Godfather's Destiny mech, a design copied from Tesla. Coralie shook her head, trying to shake the overly familiar alarm broadcast sound out of her brain.

Local tactical victories cannot change the fact that they only have five people (two of whom are men whose combat effectiveness is not guaranteed). The overall situation is developing in an increasingly unfavorable direction for them. Coralli has reason to believe that after defeating the counterfeit godfather, the next step will be for more advanced mechs such as Divine Machine? Heldam to come and fight, or even Durandal with the Black Abyss White Flower... If they do not act quickly, the final result will be that the five of them will be worn down to death!

"That's right."

Danheng agreed with Coralie's assessment.

Compared to the massive numbers of March 7th fighters, Danheng's single shot and mech seemed somewhat lacking—but considering he was a man, Coralie and Helia decided not to dwell on it.

"Please take care of me on Sunday."

Unfolding the book in his hands, the refined Sunday smiled and agreed.

"Please feel free to leave it to me."

"No trace of intruders found in the East District!"

"Nothing was found in the West District either!"

"It can't be missing, it can't be missing! Their vehicles are still there! Search, search quickly! The intruders must have gotten in!"

"Damn intruders, I haven't even had lunch yet!"

In a corridor, the five people were surrounded by Valkyries searching for them.

As a soldier, the Valkyrie would never show any friendliness to a dangerous enemy attacking during mealtimes.

Watching the Valkyries coming and going, their anger levels already maxed out from investigating intruders without having eaten, Helia's heart was filled with guilt—and perhaps also the fear of being exposed and killed.

Helia felt her heart pounding, especially when the Valkyries looked in their direction or stopped to ask, "Have you seen any intruders?" Fortunately, they hadn't been discovered yet.

"Mr. Sunday, aren't we going to be exposed like this?"

"Don't worry, ma'am."

On Sunday, her confidence remained undiminished.

"To outsiders, the five of us are just five ordinary people of different heights with no distinguishing features."

Although the power of harmony could not be mobilized in large quantities here, it was more than enough to deal with the disguise. Sunday was convinced that his disguise was flawless: his disguises were all based on the most common and unremarkable templates, how could they be discovered?

"Which unit are you from?"

Just then, a group of Valkyries who had already passed by suddenly stopped and looked directly in their direction.

"We've been exposed?"

Helia unconsciously tightened her grip on her weapon, and Coralie also quietly clenched her fist, ready to strike at any moment.

"Madam, we are new employees in charge of logistics."

On Sunday, he still wore a smile. He took a step forward and instinctively gave a graceful bow, his voice calm and steady, as if he were truly just passing by.

Disguising oneself as an unimportant, ordinary logistics staff member is the best approach.

However, the Valkyrie did not dispel her doubts and still looked at them suspiciously: they might not recognize all the Valkyries on this floating island, but she and some of her sisters knew all the male creatures, even the cats and dogs, very well. How come they had never heard of these two young men before? Even if they were newcomers and looked so ordinary, they couldn't possibly be so unfamiliar, right?

There's something off about it... Yes, it's too elegant! What kind of logistics staff would be so polite and elegant?

"I've never seen you before. You know these are special times, right? Please cooperate and show me your identification."

The Valkyrie spoke firmly and her attitude left no room for doubt. Although now was not the time to investigate and perfect the Schicksal Headquarters’s strange intelligence network (you could ask Schicksal Headquarters’s biggest intelligence broker, Aylvit, and she would definitely know), she was curious and suspicious: were these ordinary-looking people who didn’t have any distinctive features really doing logistics?

Sunday paused, startled. Was this investigation going too far? Weren't men in this world supposed to be easily overlooked and lack fighting ability? He hadn't prepared for, or even seen, this kind of identification before…

It seems we weren't prepared enough?

On Sunday, Danheng turned back to Danheng for help. Danheng looked at Helia, who called herself a Valkyrie, while Helia looked at Coralli, who waved her hand.

What kind of logistics personnel identification do they have? Do you want the Valkyrie's identification? No, there's been at least two reforms by Bishop Theresa, so the Valkyrie identification cards from this era are probably not interchangeable with theirs.

"It happened so suddenly, we were all in a rush to leave, and none of the five of us brought anything with us..."

It's perfectly reasonable to leave without your ID if you're in a rush, right?

"Oh, so who is the head of your logistics team?"

Sunday:……

Seeing this, Danheng shook his head. They were too hasty. They needed to find a place quickly so that Sunday could give them a change of disguise. Right now...

"March, make your move!"

"Watch us!"

On March 7th, he immediately made his move, having already switched his weapons from dual swords to a bow and arrow. With a casual pull, an ice arrow shot towards the group of Valkyries.

"Enemy attack!"

The Valkyries reacted quickly, drawing their weapons to defend themselves. However, their resistance was futile, as March 7's objective was not to kill them.

As the ice arrows approached the Valkyries, they suddenly exploded, transforming into a cloud of icy mist. The mist rapidly spread, enveloping the Valkyries and turning the closest ones into ice sculptures.

"team leader!"

The Valkyries were somewhat flustered by the sudden appearance of the icy mist; they hadn't yet realized what was happening.

"Get out!"

Under Danheng's command, except for the stunned Helia, the five of them quickly turned around and ran wildly in a direction they didn't even know where they were going.

"Miss March, didn't you say you wouldn't kill anyone?"

Only then did Helia realize something was wrong and take off running. However, she expressed strong dissatisfaction with March 7's "murder": To save someone, you have to kill a Valkyrie? This could have been completely avoided!

"Oh dear, that's just frozen. It'll be fine once it thaws! I'm not that heartless!"

The five people navigated through the intricate passageways of the Destiny headquarters, with alarms blaring all around them.

"This is a bit of a problem... Hurry, keep up with me!"

Coralie frowned. As a Valkyrie from headquarters, she knew the layout of this place perfectly, ideal for an escape. Unfortunately, this section had few forks in the road and was extremely close together...

"Don't panic, let's find an empty room and let Sunday—"

"Take down all five of them! We absolutely cannot let them escape!"

Several groups of bloodthirsty, hungry Valkyries surged in from all directions, attempting to block them in the passageway.

"At times like these, you have to look to me! Come and experience what I'm capable of!"

On March 7th, she leaped into the air, drawing her bow with both hands. A crystal-clear ice arrow instantly materialized from the deformed bowstring, shattering upon impact into countless strange little ice blocks (ice sculptures?) that hurtled towards the surrounding Valkyries. The Valkyries, struck by the icy force, were rendered immobile—they were all temporarily trapped within the ice.

"Hurry up, there's a three-way intersection ahead, and the surveillance cameras there have several blind spots!"

The implication is that it's very suitable to disguise oneself again.

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

"Since the start of the journey, I never imagined I would be doing such intense exercise..."

"This is a common occurrence on pioneering journeys."

"That's right, that's right!"

March 7th nodded in deep agreement: Based on her experience, the train crew would be wanted every three worlds they explored, and it seemed like that was enough now.

After the last person passed through, Danheng decisively deactivated the emergency button on the gate, causing it to fall and temporarily blocking the pursuing Valkyries on the other side.

"Finally, I can take a break!"

No, not yet.

Danheng grabbed March 7, who was about to sit on Coralie's hammer without any regard for her image, and pointed to the red light in front of them.

"what is that?"

On March 7th, upon closer inspection, they saw something at the end of the passage emitting a cold red light, slowly approaching them.

"How many, robots?"

Upon seeing the mechs, March 7th laughed: "How many have they already dismantled? What's this little bit of trouble!"

"It's not just robots, it's uninvited guests."

Upon hearing this sound, everyone jumped in fright.

"Danheng, Sunday, don't you think it sounds a lot like Miss Tingyun?"

"Ms. Rita?! What's she doing here?!"

From the shadows, a girl dressed in dark green silk stockings, with a gray-gold frizzy head covering one of her wine-red eyes, emerged.

"I am Rita Losweiser, the vice-captain of the Undying Blade."

She politely bowed to the five people, then took out a sickle.

"Everyone, please surrender, or Rita will not be able to guarantee your safety."

It seems like there should be more updates...
