Characters Present

Murata Himeko

Fu Hua

Frederica Nikola Tesla

Start

Patter... patter...

🔇 N/A

The sounds echoed in her ears.

🔇 N/A

It sounded like rain splattering on an umbrella... or the fluttering of a dove's wings.

🔇 N/A

When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the metal-plated ceiling.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

... where is this place?

🔇 N/A

Himeko swooned as she struggled to get up.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

... is this a prison?

🔇 N/A

Himeko

Of course, I was defeated and arrested. What happened next?

🔇 N/A

She nearly fell flat on the ground when trying to get out of bed.

🔇 N/A

Patter... patter...

🔇 N/A

A strange sound continued to echo within her mind.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

Gosh, this noise in my head...

🔇 N/A

Himeko

... My body feels so clumsy and heavy... how long have I slept?

🔇 N/A

Himeko

...I must get out of here... Theresa and the girls... They need my help...

🔇 N/A

She staggered for the door but the noise in her head kept getting louder and louder.

🔇 N/A

Exhaustion soon overwhelmed her. She collapsed and fell on the floor, only a few feet from the door.

🔇 N/A

Himeko struggled to sit up, panting laboriously as she leaned against the metal doors.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

Huff... huff...

🔇 N/A

Himeko

... hmm?

🔇 N/A

She suddenly noticed a test tube in her hands.

🔇 N/A

CN

JP

Himeko

This... blood serum... where did it come from? Is it you, Fu Hua?

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

......

🔇 N/A

Himeko

... You changed a lot.

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

......

🔇 N/A

Himeko

So what can this prisoner do for you?

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

...that tube contains a Honkai-neutralizing serum that will delay the Honkai corruption in your body.

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

...find a safe place to use it.

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

You will lose your Valkyrie powers after the serum neutralizes the Honkai within you.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

......

🔇 N/A

Himeko

...a gift? Thanks anyway...

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

The Herrscher has awoken.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

...!

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

Leave this place then head north. You will see a guard tower.

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

The place is safe. You can hide there. There will be guards along the way, but nothing strong enough to stop you.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

I don't need to know that. Where are Theresa and the girls?

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

......

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

If you want to save your friends...

🔇 N/A

Fu Hua

... then go around the tower. I will be waiting at the labs on the other side.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

......?

🔇 N/A

Himeko

Hey, don't leave me just yet...

🔇 N/A

There was no response. Nothing could be heard on the other side.

🔇 N/A

Himeko forced herself to stand up and shoved the door open with every shred of her strength.

🔇 N/A

And then the surprising thing happened.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

Hmm, the door is ajar. Someone else probably opened it.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

...no time for this.

🔇 N/A

She stuffed the serum into a pocket and quickly left Containment Bay 7.

🔇 N/A

< The screen goes black, then switches to the Containment Bay, where the Captain will have control of Himeko's [Scarlet Fusion] battlesuit. >

< Reach the end of the stage without getting caught. >

Himeko:

Drone patrols...

Himeko:

Can't risk detection. I'll go around carefully...

< Interact with the control panel. >

Himeko:

That building over there should be the Guard Tower that Fu Hua mentioned...

Himeko:

The labs should be around it... but it seems to be guarded...

Himeko:

Gotta find a weapon first...

Himeko:

There's a small passageway here. I can avoid enemy patrols here.

< Interact with the greatsword. >

Himeko:

A Proto Pulse Cleaver... grr... well, it's better than nothing.

< Interact with the control panel. >

Himeko:

I've heard of Helheim Labs before, but never expected to be here myself.

Himeko:

This place sure creeps me out.

< Defeat the enemies. >

< Enemies defeated. >

Himeko:

Huff... huff...

Himeko:

That's the last of them...

Himeko:

This is the Guard Tower... we need to go up.

Himeko:

...! Is anyone here?

???

Hnngggh...

🔇 N/A

Himeko

...the voice?

🔇 N/A

???

Hnngh hnngh hngh hngh hnngggh!

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Hnngh hnghhngh hnghhngh!

🔇 N/A

Himeko

Tesla?

🔇 N/A

Himeko saw a familiar figure at a distance.

🔇 N/A

Tesla was tied to a chair with plenty of rope. She couldn't move at all.

🔇 N/A

They even gagged her with an intricate, black-colored scarf. Himeko tried not to laugh at this hilarious sight.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

Calm down. I'll ungag you.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Hnngggh...

🔇 N/A

Tesla

...!

🔇 N/A

Tesla

That evil maid! I don't want to see her ever again!

🔇 N/A

Himeko

What did she do to you?

🔇 N/A

Tesla

...she gave me a world of humiliation.

🔇 N/A

Furious at being tied to the chair, Tesla shook her body violently.

🔇 N/A

Himeko then realized that the rope was tied into a beautiful knot behind her back.

🔇 N/A

...The knot looked so perfect that it was almost a shame to untie it.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

......oh dear.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

She kept apologizing while tying me up!

🔇 N/A

Tesla

"Ooooh... I'm so sorry, this might hurt..." What the hell!? Why would you tie me up if you were sorry at all!?

🔇 N/A

Tesla

The worst part was that she "kindly" applied some perfume on her hankie. That's not funny at all.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

I'll untie you first...

🔇 N/A

Himeko told Tesla what happened before this.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

...that's all I know.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Now I'm really worried about mophead...

🔇 N/A

Tesla

... we're not in a great shape either.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

I guess we can only head to the lab that somebody mentioned.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

We need to find a way to contact the Hyperion.

🔇 N/A

< Interact with the control panel. >

System

Beep...

🔇 N/A

System

Error code 110327. Target not found. Access denied.

🔇 N/A

Himeko

This elevator looks broken.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

It's just an elevator. I'll let you call me a moron if I can't fix this.

🔇 N/A

Tesla

Let's backtrack a bit. I need a terminal connected to the mainframe.

🔇 N/A

Tesla:

A question.

Tesla:

What's up with that second rate sword?

Himeko:

I've a question myself. Is there something better than this butter knife?

Tesla:

This place should have plenty of Honkai-powered weapons.

Tesla:

See if you can find anything that strikes your fancy.

Himeko:

Let's look at what's inside these 2 chests.

< Interact with the first chest. >

There are only some scraps and components left inside...

Let's look somewhere else.

< Interact with the second chest. >

There is a usable cross weapon here, but I'm not specialized in handling that sort of weapon.

Himeko:

There seems to be a chest down here too.

Theresa...

< Interact with the third chest. >

Balmung... This one looks like it will do.

I'll give it a try after finding the terminal. Tesla will need to activate the elevator.

< Interact with the terminal. >

Tesla took out a small red device from her gauntlet and inserted into the terminal port.
