Dimensional Gacha in Honkai Impact

On the Moon...

After storing the Bunker and several space fortresses in his Gate of Babylon, Takatsuki arrived here.

Actually, Takatsuki wasn't sure at first if the Gate of Babylon could do this, but then he thought that if Gilgamesh could fit a Vimana inside, then storing a space station shouldn't be a big problem, right?

Then, Takatsuki saw a rare sight: huge golden Ripples unfolded in space, even comparable to some smaller planets.

Fortunately, after putting the Bunker inside, Takatsuki didn't feel that the Gate of Babylon couldn't hold any more.

Just how big was this thing? Takatsuki couldn't imagine.

After storing it, he floated all the way to the Moon.

Ordinary people cannot survive in space, but…

Demons can.

Especially a Moon Demon who controls gravity.

Through special gravitational waves, Takatsuki resisted the negative effects of space. The only drawback was that gravitational waves could not replace oxygen.

However, with Takatsuki's current physique, holding his breath for several tens of minutes was no problem at all.

On the far side of the Moon, there were bases and lunar servers built by Androids.

Perhaps, in their view, machine lifeforms would not break through the atmosphere, so the defenses on the Moon were very weak.

Takatsuki had originally prepared to simply increase the Moon's gravity to destroy any androids if they attacked, but when Takatsuki stood in front of a server, no androids appeared.

Was it because he was human? Or because this was what he himself wanted to see?

Takatsuki didn't know, but it didn't stop him from striking the lunar server with a blade.

Takatsuki did not change the Androids' underlying logic of protecting humanity. Although it was still about protecting humanity, with humanity no longer existing, it might still lead to new possibilities. What Takatsuki changed was informing all androids that humanity had perished, with only genes remaining, and adding a new underlying logic for them: to survive.

Do androids count as living? Such a philosophical question seemed not to exist in this world. After all, even alien robots could be called lifeforms. As long as one wasn't too idle, one wouldn't nitpick over such things.

The purpose of this underlying logic was merely to give them a reason to live on after losing the motivation to do so.

After opening the passage to Earth, the air from the surface continuously rushed into the vacuum of space. Enduring the storm of air, Takatsuki returned to Earth through the passage.

"Phew…"

He exhaled a turbid breath and inhaled some fresh air. Although his Moon Demon Nen made him immune to the negative effects of space, the cold environment remained, and a layer of frost had formed on his hair and eyebrows.

Activating his Nen again, he returned to the treehouse where Mei was already preparing lunch? Or dinner?

The sun hadn't changed, so Takatsuki couldn't tell the time.

"Welcome back."

Seeing Takatsuki suddenly appear, Mei smiled gently.

Perhaps because she was cooking, her Raiden personality had receded again.

"I'm back."

A2 sat in the distance, not disturbing Takatsuki and Mei's private moment, or rather, she was already used to it?

"Is everything resolved?"

"Yes, we can go back now. The issues with the androids and machine lifeforms on Earth have also been resolved; they won't be hostile to each other for now, but what happens next will depend on their own choices."

Takatsuki had originally planned to send Eve back as a thunderbolt to blast through the machine lifeform network and tamper with its underlying logic.

However, he unexpectedly discovered N2's existence in the Bunker, so compared to Eve, N2, as the combined consciousness of the machine lifeforms, was the true core.

Therefore, after teaching N2 the concept of having enemies in one's heart and that all things can be enemies, N2 seemed to have found the door to a new world.

It must be said that although machine lifeforms had evolved, their creativity was still very limited; they mostly evolved through imitation and learning. If they relied on self-creation for evolution, it would take hundreds or thousands of years, which might be one of the reasons they pursued humanity.

"That's good. Shall we go back now?"

Although it was a world unrelated to her and the ending was not perfect, Mei still showed a slight smile upon hearing the suitable ending.

"Mei is already thinking of going back? Are you tired of this?"

He looked at the purple-haired girl with a half-smile, until a slight blush appeared on her face.

"Let's… go back in a bit."

…

After the YoRHa withdrew from this world, the machine lifeforms also found a target worthy of being considered an enemy.

N2's goal was to continuously evolve and surpass her underlying logic.

And Takatsuki pointed her to a clear path, so the androids on Earth were no longer considered by N2. It would be very easy for her to annihilate these androids; not to mention the resistance, she could easily annihilate the Androids on the Moon alone. In her eyes, they were no longer sufficient to be her enemies.

Because these androids could not bring her any evolution.

Her goal became the stars and the sea, that unknown starry sky.

N2 mobilized all machine lifeforms still connected to the network and began building arks sufficient for them to leave this planet.

Adam and Eve also stopped bothering Takatsuki.

Adam had once wanted to destroy the world after losing Eve, and if he couldn't destroy it, he wanted to destroy himself along with it.

But upon discovering that Eve was still alive, Adam abandoned such thoughts.

They also felt N2's summons and went to participate in the construction of the ark.

So, Takatsuki returned to a peaceful life here. A2 was sent by Takatsuki to build a house a bit further away to prevent disturbing his and Mei's life.

He had previously suggested letting A2 fall into slumber and enter the Gate of Babylon, to be released after they returned, but A2 refused. A2 wanted to guard them until they left this place.

Since A2 had made her decision, Takatsuki naturally didn't force her.

Even the most wonderful life has its moments of weariness.

It couldn't really be called weariness; after all, this world was quite monotonous. After living there for another month, the initial novelty had somewhat faded for the two of them.

It was also time to return.

This instance had no main quest and yielded no crystal gains, but after doing so many things, Takatsuki still completed a hidden quest. The hidden quest gave him an unexpected item, and he wasn't sure what its purpose was.

After placing A2 into the Gate of Babylon, Takatsuki, with Mei, activated the system and returned to the Honkai world.
