The plot on the television continued.
As the last of the three female leads, Bronya also made her appearance.
She was currently hacking the warship's back door.
"Big Sister Mei… Kiana…"
"Bronya… must go faster…"
In this dangerous situation, her fingers struck the keys faster and faster, and the hacking speed increased even further.
"Hacking complete!"
Click, click…
The back door automatically opened.
Bronya hurriedly floated out…
That's right—unlike the others, she didn't use her feet to walk at all; she simply floated out just like that.
For a moment, Eden couldn't figure out how this scene had been filmed.
Seeing that everyone was completely drawn into the plot, she temporarily suppressed her questions and continued watching.
On screen,
the view was shown from Bronya's perspective. The deck was covered with the remains of Honkai beasts, all clearly sliced apart by sharp blades.
In the middle of the remains, Mei was holding the unconscious Kiana.
Only after seeing Bronya did Mei relax slightly: "Bronya… thank goodness, you're safe too…"
As her mind relaxed, the last bit of strength holding her up vanished.
Her whole body tilted and fell to one side.
Bronya quickly stepped forward and steadied her: "Big Sister Mei!"
"Mei?"
Kiana slowly opened her eyes.
Seeing Mei unconscious, she anxiously shouted: "Mei!!"
"Bronya, report the situation on site immediately."
Himeko's urgent voice also came through the earpiece.
Bronya immediately reported everything about the scene.
After hearing that everyone was okay, Himeko finally relaxed: "I understand the situation. Bronya, I'll leave Mei in your hands."
Bronya replied: "Major Himeko, please rest assured. Big Sister Mei's condition has already stabilized. Kiana is carrying her on her back. Leave the enemies to Bronya."
Kiana carried Mei on her back and entered the warship interior with Bronya.
She asked curiously: "Oh, right—Himeko, what was that 'restriction program' with Mei earlier? And something about a countdown? How come I've never heard of it?"
Himeko answered: "…It's a long story. Once the mission is over, I'll explain it to you properly."
Hearing this, Kiana didn't press further.
She could only continue the mission with Bronya.
Because they had entered the warship's interior, the pursuit by Honkai beasts had decreased significantly.
The two of them no longer had to fight constantly.
During this time, Mei also woke up from her coma.
Only after the two confirmed that her body was fine did they agree to let her down.
As they continued deeper,
the scenes inside the warship were fully revealed to the audience.
Whether it was the high-tech structures or the uniquely designed mechs, everything left the viewers in awe.
Eden was especially surprised: "Was this filmed inside a real warship?"
Elysia said proudly: "Nope~ All of this was actually created with post-production special effects."
Eden was still shocked: "Even if it's special effects, to be able to imagine such a realistic warship and film such authentic scenes—the director's ability already surpasses those famous directors in the entertainment industry."
One must know, in this world, domestic sci-fi films were quite poor.
The few excellent sci-fi works were all from abroad. While some had astonishingly creative ideas, their plots were often too simplistic.
As a result, audiences often said: "As long as the special effects are satisfying, it doesn't matter if the plot is good or not."
She suddenly noticed the strange mechs on screen.
She asked: "It can't be… that these mechs can actually be piloted…"
Before she could finish her sentence,
on the television screen, Kiana wanted to pilot a mech but was refused by Bronya.
This left Eden a little disappointed; she sighed softly: "So they can't be piloted after all."
No one present responded.
Instead, Elysia revealed a smile: "Just keep watching."
Eden watched the screen with a trace of doubt.
On screen,
Bronya explained: "Safely piloting a mech requires more than 10,000 hours of training and a basic mastery of electromagnetism, fluid dynamics, and aerodynamics to be competent."
Kiana completely refused to believe it: "Huh? You're lying to me! This thing looks simpler than riding a bicycle, doesn't it?"
Saying that, she directly climbed into the mech.
"Kiana, don't mess around—"
Mei still wanted to stop her, but it was already too late.
Kiana piloted the mech, turned around, and charged toward the pursuing Honkai beasts behind them.
Countless cannons exploded inside the warship. The mech rushed through the explosions toward the enemy group, easily tearing apart the Honkai beasts. The mechanical beauty of violence was fully displayed in this moment.
This scene left Eden completely stunned.
They could actually be piloted?
No…
Was this really just a television drama?
How on earth was this filmed?
She pointed at the screen and asked Elysia: "Ellie, don't tell me this is special effects too?"
Elysia nodded: "That's right, that's right! All of this is special effects. How could there be piloted mechs in this world? Right?"
"Special effects…"
"Have special effects become this realistic now?"
Eden still found it hard to believe and quickly pressed: "Who's the special effects artist? It can't be your husband too, right?"
"Of course not!"
It was Mobius who answered: "That man doesn't have that kind of ability. He only put forward the requirements for the special effects scenes and coordinated the overall picture."
Ah?
These words instead made Eden view Hessian even more highly.
