Luo Lin knew many highly confidential pieces of information in the Honkai world that humans considered unknown, such as speculations about the nature of the Honkai, the secrets of the Divine Key, the anecdotes of the Fire Moths, Otto's grand plan, parallel worlds...
She could talk about even the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quanta. But when it came to the specific history itself, Luo Lin didn't know as much—after all, the game didn't delve into it!
Moreover, after the girl transmigrated, she faced a multitude of tasks and the possibility of espionage investigations from a certain blond archbishop.
To avoid exposure, Luo Lin chose to quickly absorb the key points of the textbooks.
Even the book "Chronicles of Honkai" was only skimmed through; knowing some common knowledge was enough.
When the Himeko Murata, taught Luo Lin in the system space, she didn't focus much on this aspect either. At most, she mentioned some knowledge points to deal with exams, as the Valkyrie's promotion exams required more study on combat skills and command techniques.
However, Luo Lin was confident in teaching this class. She was taught by the Valkyrie Academy's gold medal lecturer, Himeko, and her mind harbored the Herrscher of a Sentience with all her knowledge—someone once joked that understanding the symbols meant understanding the history of Honkai.
Luo Lin decided to use an entertaining approach to break down and teach them the knowledge. After all, she couldn't let Kiana fall asleep in class; otherwise, she might fail the cultural subjects when she went to St. Freya Academy.
Perhaps Cecilia from her Stigmata would come out and criticize both of them...
With this mindset, Luo Lin consulted the Herrscher of Sentience to recall some historical stories (most of which Fu Hua herself had experienced), while simultaneously teaching Raiden Mei and Kiana. Soon, they immersed themselves in the classroom, absorbing this knowledge.
Luo Lin glanced at the clock.
According to the old rules before transmigration, she stopped the class after forty minutes. She looked at the pensive Kiana and Raiden Mei, smiling as she asked, "How was it? Do you feel that this world isn't as friendly as you imagined?"
Raiden Mei calmly analyzed, "The Honkai... is indeed a dangerous thing, but it shouldn't just be as terrifying as you said. It should have other aspects—something special that makes people ignore these dangers and still want to touch it. Like power, or perhaps enough benefits."
"Yes, power and benefits."
Luo Lin couldn't help but applaud her. Raiden Rongma's education had indeed not been in vain; Mei demonstrated a vision and thinking level far beyond her peers.
"The Honkai can be an extremely special and versatile energy source. It can easily be converted into other forms of energy, and with the support of certain technologies, the Honkai Engine can become something like a perpetual motion machine... Moreover, in a certain sense, it can indeed grant immortality, as long as you have a good compatibility with Honkai energy..."
"Like me?" Mei asked.
"Exactly like you."
The girl with blue-purple long hair stared at her own palm, arcs of electricity jumping at her fingertips. Now that she knew about the Honkai energy, she wanted to manipulate the energy within her body and see how far she could go.
So Raiden Mei attempted to control the direction of the lightning. The arcs indeed gave her feedback, but they didn't fly in the direction Mei wanted; instead, they struck Luo Lin nearby.
The black-haired girl condensed Edge of Taixuan and dispersed the small out-of-control thunder in the air.
"Sorry..."
"It's okay, looks like you need to work on your control."
Raiden Mei fell silent for a moment, then earnestly said, "Teacher Luo Lin, please teach me."
"Anything can be taught... but not today." Luo Lin pointed to the dimming sky. "It's getting dark, and some things don't need to be rushed. You should go home now."
"Ah! I have to hurry home before my dad finds out anything!"
Raiden Mei stood up, handing Luo Lin and Kiana a key each. "Here are the keys. If everything goes as planned, we'll meet here after class!"
"Okay."
"See you tomorrow!"
With "Chronicles of Honkai" in her arms, the girl with blue-purple long hair left in a hurry. Luo Lin estimated she would stay up all night reading; after all, the excitement was still there...
Kiana was different. After finishing the lesson, she dropped the textbooks as if they were red-hot irons and happily started eating cake.
"Eat less, aren't you planning to have dinner?"
The Kiana puffed her cheeks. "What's wrong with that? This is called a pre-dinner dessert!"
Meaning there will be post-dinner snacks too, Luo Lin rolled her eyes.
Kiana ate for a while before going silent, seemingly conflicted to ask something in which Luo Lin noticed, Kiana seeing Luo Lin notice her, gathered her resolve to ask.
"Luo Lin..."
"Yes?"
"I want to ask... have Mom and Dad always been fighting against these things?" Kiana's fork-waving movements slowed down, and she asked in a low voice, "From what you said, there are many people fighting against the Honkai, why can't they just stop fighting and live peacefully with me..."
"Why is that?"
Luo Lin thought of many reasons—like the greater the power, the greater the responsibility, protecting humanity from Honkai extinction, exploring the path of civilization...
"Perhaps what they want most is to protect their beloved children from Honkai's harm."
"...Hmph, I've grown up already."
"Yes, you've grown up, Kiana." Luo Lin rubbed the Kiana's head, "Don't worry, I'm by your side, and I'll help you find Siegfried..."
"Mm."
Kiana smiled and finished the last piece of cake on her plate.
------------------------------
At night, Luo Lin arrived at the familiar system space and found Senti, the Herrscher of Sentience, lounging comfortably on the recliner, watching cartoons on TV—wait, they could watch TV in this godforsaken system space?!
"Hey, good evening!"
"...Can your TV receive signals?"
The Herrscher of Sentience snapped their fingers and leisurely said, "As an all-knowing Herrscher of Sentience, I can do anything... Well, actually, it was your system that set it up for me, saying it was to prevent me from getting bored..."
Luo Lin facepalmed with one hand, feeling too weak to retort, "Why don't you set up the signal for Seele too?"
"The host is right. Let's set up the signal for Seele! 5 crystals for honesty!"
"No, does it deduct crystals when you watch TV too?" Luo Lin looked at the helpless Herrscher of Sentience, "You're going to help me earn more crystals, right?"
"...Are you expecting me to wait here?"
Luo Lin shifted her gaze away from the speechless Herrscher of Sentience, calling up the system panel, opening the chronicles interface, and seeing the burning Babylon Tower, involuntarily recalling the "joyful" journey of the past three days.
"Let's not do this now; let's take a break!"
The girl immediately closed the chronicles interface and opened the newly appeared "Elysian Realm" module.
This was definitely a good place to earn crystals!
