As time passed, Eden finally reached the boss level of Chapter 7.
Upon entering the level, the first thing that caught her eye was an animated short film. Paired with exciting music, the animation created an immediate sense of oppression, portraying the trial-level Honkai Beast.
"Wow! The boss of this level is a Judgment-level Honkai Beast~" Alicia's eyes gleamed.
After familiarizing themselves with the game's world view, both Alicia and Eden understood the significance of a Judgment-level Honkai Beast. It was an immensely powerful monster, second only to the Herrscher.
Thinking of this, Eden became serious.
"This level is probably going to be tough... Alicia, why don't you give it a try?" Eden suggested.
Alicia smiled, "I believe in you, Eden~"
Eden hesitated. Honestly, after watching the animated short, she too was struck by the terrifying presence of the trial-level Honkai Beast. She wondered if Ji Zi would be able to survive against it.
"Alright... I'll give it a go," Eden finally decided, swallowing her nerves. She turned toward the screen with determination.
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and turned to Alicia. "By the way, if the character dies, can she be resurrected?"
Alicia, realizing what Eden meant, burst into laughter.
"Don't worry, Eden. If your Valkyrie dies, you can resurrect them by spending 15 crystals and restoring their health."
Hearing this, Eden's trembling fingers finally settled.
"Good to know..."
After murmuring to herself, Eden gripped the controls, focused, and directed Ji Zi into battle against Benares, the mighty Honkai Beast.
In comparison to the massive body of the Judgment-level Honkai Beast, Ji Zi's small frame looked fragile. But every swing of her sword sent a powerful recoil through Eden.
Swing the blade, dodge, unleash the ultimate move...
For the first time, Eden felt the joy of playing a game.
Fortunately, the main storyline wasn't overly difficult. After a minute of intense fighting, Eden managed to overcome the level.
Just before the level concluded, the screen transitioned to another short clip. Fu Hua, dressed in the fourth-generation Valkyrie armor, appeared in the sky, gazing seriously at Benares below. "No... With Helios' performance, I can't handle the Judgment-level Honkai Beast alone. I need help."
Both Alicia and Eden were surprised when Fu Hua spoke.
"Hey? Isn't that the girl who took Kiana away? She's actually coming to help?" Alicia asked.
Alicia grinned. "I told you there would be foreshadowing. This is definitely not just a story of a beautiful girl saving the world."
"I guess... Squad Leader Fu Hua must have gone undercover in Tianming," Eden added, nodding in agreement.
The two continued to immerse themselves in the plot. Soon, Eden reached the final level of Chapter 7.
"The last level."
Alicia's eyes sparkled as she looked at the game screen. "I get to try Fu Hua's S-class armor~"
Without hesitation, she grabbed Eden's arm and snuggled closer. "Little Angel Eden, let me play this level~"
Eden didn't object. She passed the keyboard to Alicia, resting her chin on her hand and watching her in silence.
[The fourth-generation Valkyrie Armor, Shadow Knight Moon Wheel. Restrictions removed!]
In the short video, Fu Hua's black armor quickly transformed.
The transformation scene had the audience in Alicia's live stream buzzing with excitement.
The game started, and the battle took place in a beautiful sea of clouds.
"Wow~ What a gorgeous scene..." Before Alicia could finish her exclamation, a loud alarm interrupted, followed by the sudden appearance of the Judgment-level Honkai Beast.
"Another defeated general? This time, I'll take you down~" Alicia declared confidently, now in control of Fu Hua.
She expertly dodged, punched, and performed combo attacks, effortlessly maneuvering Fu Hua's movements.
Her performance seemed much smoother than Eden's earlier attempt.
"This task is a piece of cake~" Alicia remarked smugly as the game ended. The game's settlement screen appeared, and she turned to Eden with a grin. "Do you want to compliment me, Eden?"
Eden smiled gently. "Alicia is amazing."
"Then, let's continue the [Beautiful Girl Rescue Plan]~" Alicia replied, clicking on the switch interface, only to find that Chapter 8 was the final chapter.
"The Queen is coming? I thought the game had only updated to Chapter 8."
Unlike Eden, Alicia's focus was clearly different.
"Look at Eden, Kiana and Mei are so sweet. Can I hold you like that too?" Alicia asked, glancing at the screen. On it, Qiyana was holding Mei in a princess-carry, looking incredibly adorable.
"Of course, if Alicia can hold it..."
"If it's me, then Alicia will have 100 times the power~"
The two girls joked with each other, but they didn't lose sight of the game's plot.
Meanwhile, the number of viewers in the live stream room hit 1 million, and it continued to grow.
Normally, Station B couldn't accommodate so many viewers in the same live stream. However, Eden had appeared on Alicia's stream multiple times already.
Given her past experience with a system crash, Bilibili took extra precautions every time Alicia broadcasted. This time, the staff was on high alert. They were working feverishly to ensure that the server could handle the heavy traffic generated by Eden's presence.
Even if other streamers had to cut their broadcasts short, Alicia's live stream would never collapse.
After all, this was a huge traffic boost.
In the Station B office, several staff members watched Alicia's live stream while commenting among themselves.
"As expected of Eden... Just her presence alone, without even interacting with the audience, is enough to skyrocket the popularity. The number of bullet comments is insane too."
"Things are precious. Eden doesn't make many appearances, and when she does, her fans go wild. Just seeing her on the stream will definitely send fans into a frenzy."
"She's probably going to trend on Weibo again after this..."
"By the way, have you heard of a game called 'Honkai III'?"
"I don't know much about it... wait a minute, could Eden be endorsing this game?"
"That's huge. I've never seen Eden take on an advertisement before!"
