"Don't! I was wrong, Ai-chan! Don't ignore me; you're all I have now!"
Qiyana quickly apologized. In this world of One Piece, Ai-chan was the only two-dimensional girl she could communicate with. If Ai-chan really ignored her, Qiyana would feel like she was dead.
"Then I'll forgive you this once, Captain!"
Ai-chan crossed her arms and shot a sidelong glance at Qiyana, secretly thinking that if this perverted captain dared to do anything creepy, she would truly ignore her from then on.
"Thank you so much! Ai-chan is the best!"
With that, Qiyana dared not make any more perverted moves towards Ai-chan. Instead, she took out a basic learning chip to upgrade her Crimson Armor. A flash of light passed, and the Crimson Armor leveled up to level two. Now it was time to learn skills. Qiyana first opened the Home system to collect the coins from the Refinery.
"Just over a thousand? Sure enough, a level one Refinery doesn't produce much."
Looking at the coin count displayed above the Refinery, Qiyana sighed. "Well, a thousand is a thousand. A mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat. Let's collect it first."
Afterward, Qiyana collected the coins, and with a flash of white light, the coin count on the screen skyrocketed to over two thousand. There was also a number indicating a 208% increase next to it.
Is this a critical hit? Qiyana nodded in satisfaction. There was indeed a critical hit mechanism when collecting coins from the Refinery, but Qiyana never expected to be so lucky right off the bat.
The coin count immediately more than doubled, reaching over three thousand nine hundred, almost hitting four thousand. However, Qiyana wasn't too excited. She knew that nearly four thousand coins were not much; they would be gone in just a few uses.
Then Qiyana opened the skill interface, where the White Flower Armor and Crimson Armor were shining brightly. She first clicked on the White Flower Armor, where there was a little red dot indicating an option to learn skills. At that moment, only the normal attack had a red dot. Without thinking too much, she clicked in.
In the normal attack section, there were three small branches. After pondering for a moment, Qiyana chose the option to increase normal attack power. Then she exited the White Flower Armor and clicked into the Crimson Armor. However, due to its low level, many skills were locked, so Qiyana still chose normal attack and learned the Bleed skill. With a 5% chance to cause the enemy to enter a bleeding state when attacking, it dealt ten damage every 0.5 seconds for three seconds.
As the skill level increased, both damage and duration would rise, but currently, Qiyana couldn't learn any further.
With the skills learned and the tasks completed, what should she do next? Qiyana exited to the main interface, looking for ways to get stronger.
"...What's this? Achievement system?"
Qiyana noticed the little red dot in the upper right corner of the screen, which indicated the location of the achievement system. Right, the tasks were done; should she just wait for them to refresh? She could check out the achievements instead.
Soon, Qiyana clicked into the achievement system to see if it was the same as in the original game.
When Qiyana clicked in, tasks from the achievement list flooded in, with the top task already completed.
First battle completed, reward: 280 crystals.
"…"
To her surprise, the achievement system gave Qiyana a pleasant surprise right off the bat. She was certain that this task wasn't in the original game, and even if it was, the reward wouldn't be as high as 280 crystals—enough for a supply draw!
Qiyana hurriedly collected it, and soon the area displaying the crystal count in the upper right corner skyrocketed from five to 285 crystals.
Feeling delighted, Qiyana continued to browse through the achievement system, wanting to see what other task rewards there were.
However, the next achievement tasks made Qiyana a bit disappointed, as they were identical to the achievements in the original game.
Complete ten combos, reward: ten crystals.
Complete twenty combos, reward: fifteen crystals.
Achieve two hearts with a character, reward: ten thousand coins.
Most of the tasks were like this; there were no more tasks that offered one-time rewards of 280 crystals, with the highest being a task for achieving four hundred combos, which only rewarded over a hundred crystals.
It seemed that task was just a privilege for her as a traveler, Qiyana thought to herself.
When Qiyana saw the affection tasks, she couldn't help but feel troubled. As one of the selling points of Honkai Impact 3, interaction with the Valkyries was a big draw. Qiyana had initially gotten into the game for the chance to tease the Valkyries, imagining the shy eyes of a girl when touched on her chest, caught between wanting and resisting.
Just thinking about it made Qiyana excited, but what if the teasing target was herself? Touching herself? Just thinking about it made her feel embarrassed!
But she was a bit reluctant about the gold reward for completing the task, as she was fully aware of how scarce gold could become in the later stages of the game.
"It's just teasing myself, after all. It won't hurt."
Qiyana comforted herself as she slowly placed her hand on her chest, gently kneading it.
"...Uh, mm, ah!"
Qiyana didn't expect her body to be so sensitive, unable to help but let out a soft moan, and her face instantly turned crimson. This is too embarrassing!
Yet along with the embarrassment, there was also a tingling pleasure that made Qiyana unable to stop her movements. Gradually, her eyes became hazy, and her right hand began to venture lower, slipping into the crimson armor.
"Uh ah."
The soft sensation between her thighs enveloped Qiyana's right hand. So this is what it feels like for girls to do that? Qiyana felt herself on the verge of losing control.
At the same time that Qiyana was teasing herself, a phantom counter appeared in her mind that only she could see.
It displayed four heart-shaped boxes, one of which was already glowing pink, while the remaining three were dull and lifeless. Below the heart-shaped progress bar, there was also a progress bar slowly increasing with Qiyana's actions.
"Ah, oh no, I can't take it anymore!"
Finally, with heavy breaths, Qiyana collapsed to the ground, a satisfied smile on her face as her body twitched from time to time.
"...I didn't expect you to be such a captain. Have you finally become so insatiable that you have to take matters into your own hands?"
Suddenly, Ai-chan's horrified voice came from the phone, causing Qiyana to instantly spring up from the ground.
"Eh? No, Ai-chan, let me explain! I did it all for the mission!"
Qiyana reached out to grab her phone, but it unexpectedly flew up as if it had sprouted wings.
"Don't touch Ai-chan, perverted captain! Go wash your hands clean!"
"…"
Only then did Qiyana realize that her right hand was unknowingly covered in some unknown sticky substance, exuding a fragrant aroma.
"Ai-chan, you have to believe me! I really did it for the mission!"
Qiyana cried out in despair.
Afterward, she ran to the seaside to wash her hands clean, feeling deeply ashamed as she returned to Ai-chan.
"First, let's establish a rule: you're not allowed to touch your phone again."
As soon as Qiyana returned, Ai-chan's emotionless voice rang out mercilessly.
"Eh??? No, Ai-chan!"
