I'm in Honkai Impact's Infinite Abyss!

Luo Lin adjusted her mindset and charged into the final 17th level portal with a brave, sacrificial demeanor.

Elysia watched as "Stygian Nymph" vanished from sight. She gently touched the paralyzed tank beside her, pondering how Vill-V and Mobius would react upon seeing this device.

Suddenly, something nudged Elysia's thoughts. She looked up, warily scanning her surroundings.

"Hmm? What's this...?"

Miss Pink Elf was surprised to see a semi-transparent screen materialize in front of her. It bore a striking resemblance to the style from the previous era and appeared quite advanced.

Even more astonishing were the images displayed on the screen—it showed Luo Lin and another "Elysia"!

Elysia felt a connection between herself and the pink figure in the image. She even felt that she was capable of manipulating that character in some way.

Not long ago, Elysia had a similar experience with Luo Lin—feeling like she was inhabiting another body!

However, controlling the "BOSS" body linked to Elysia was more... troublesome compared to the character card provided by Luo Lin?

"Huh?"

Miss Pink Elf looked at the game controller in her hand, tilting her head and making a puzzled sound.

Unaware of this, Luo Lin focused on delivering heavy blows to the final boss blocking her path!

—Rewards, achievements, crystals, here I come!!!

"Swoosh—"

Facing the barrage of pink arrows shot by the figure, Luo Lin didn't dare to underestimate them. Ever since receiving direct teachings from Elysia herself, the Valkyrie understood that these crystal arrows might conceal various attack methods.

They could explode suddenly, form crystal amber to trap people, or even turn into tracking arrows that loop around and ambush from behind!

So Luo Lin chose to evade from the start, casually leaving behind a slash to collide with the arrows.

"Crackle!"

With a crisp sound, the crystal arrows exploded into pink mist, revealing their true nature as ordinary explosive arrows.

Luo Lin watched as the pink glow suddenly appeared beneath her feet, her pupils contracting sharply, transforming into a quantum butterfly and dodging to the side once again.

In the next moment, the crystal flower that could slow people down blossomed, and Luo Lin narrowly avoided the attack.

The boss on the opposite side sounded frustrated, "Luo Lin, you're so fast..."

"Ah? Elysia? Are you... personally coming to fight me?"

Luo Lin was startled by this sudden turn of events, taking several arrows from Elysia in succession. The layers of her "Vissicittude" shield dropped to zero, making her jittery.

"Not really, she's on auto-battle... probably."

Elysia's voice sounded somewhat embarrassed as she explained, "I'm currently watching you through some kind of screen, and there's a strange controller in my hand that seems to affect the actions of this body."

As she spoke, the boss in front of Luo Lin made a clearly meaningless backward step, leaving the Valkyrie dumbfounded.

Seeing this, Luo Lin directly shouted, "Elysia, why don't you just let me pass!"

"I can't do that! Since I've taken over, I can't go easy on the trial!"

Miss Pink Elf's voice was particularly sweet, almost drowning people, "Little Luo Lin, let me see! After being specially given by my signet, your combat power—"

"No, Elysia!"

The Valkyrie let out a scream.

Then Luo Lin saw Elysia raise her longbow, preparing to summon crystal pillars once again. The dazzling pink light emanating from the bow made her scalp tingle.

I bet you believe it was an accidental press~ I don't.

Luo Lin could only continue to output damage while dodging the increasingly numerous attacks from the crystal pillars on the field.

Fortunately, the full-field AOE damage from the "Setsuna 1" core quickly eliminated some of the crystals, reducing the pressure on Luo Lin.

As for Elysia on the other side of the screen, she found that summoning crystal pillars required a very long charge time. During this period, Miss Pink Elf couldn't perform other actions and could only stand there getting beaten up.

"Why do all these moves feel so clumsy!"

If she were personally in the battle, she could probably throw out four or five crystal pillars with just a wave of her hand—of course, the pillars wouldn't be as "stupid" as they appeared on the screen, mindlessly attacking, but would surely coordinate attacks with Elysia's rhythm.

Somewhat awkwardly, Elysia manipulated the joystick and buttons on the controller, but soon she became proficient, relying on her exceptional vision and combat experience to anticipate Luo Lin's actions.

Now Luo Lin had nothing to say.

Although the boss Elysia's movements before attacking were obvious and her actions were clumsy, under the control of Miss Pink Elf herself, she displayed formidable suppressing power.

Fortunately before Elysia became proficient in her manipulation, Luo Lin had dealt a heavy wave of damage. The boss's total HP had been reduced by nearly three-quarters, but the remaining one-quarter seemed like an insurmountable obstacle.

"Wow!"

Luo Lin accumulated two layers of "Visscitude" shield again and decided to launch a quick attack. After all, there wasn't much time left in the countdown to the end of the boss battle, and she had to quickly inflict more damage.

Although Elysia didn't know why Luo Lin suddenly became so aggressive, Elysia remained calm and manipulated the pink figure on the screen to try to create distance.

However, controller operation inherently had its limitations and couldn't precisely control the specific details of attack and evasion. Even someone as strong as Elysia could only rely on instinctive combat skills to predict Luo Lin's actions.

As everyone knows, when performance can't dominate, the stats in combat decide victory or defeat.

This also gave Luo Lin the possibility of a comeback—

The quantum light on "Stygian Nymph" flashed continuously as she overcame numerous obstacles, shattered crystal pillars, broke tracking arrows, and delivered the final blow amidst the radiant brilliance of Barrier.

Elysia reluctantly put down the controller, watching her image on the screen disappear into pink particles.

"Oh... what a pity. But this is still a very novel way to play."

Miss Pink Elf waved her hand to close the screen, holding the controller. She found that it was gradually fading, turning into data streams and disappearing.

"So you're also part of a special trial... interesting..."

While the controller hadn't completely disappeared, Elysia replicated an identical one with pink crystals.

She stood up, crossed the portal, and looked at the embarrassed Luo Lin.

At this point, the "Elysian Realm" had already settled the final score, all acquired Signets disappeared, leaving only the true power of "Ego" surging within Luo Lin's body.

"Elysia... you really went all out."

"Haha, but you still successfully passed the trial."

Elysia patted Luo Lin's shoulder firmly, revealing a kind smile.

"Next time, let's practice together?"

"Okay."
