"Folks, we've finally made it!"
"We attended the Arbiter-General's council meeting!"
"During this meeting, we established the guiding principle centered around the Marshal! We will steadfastly follow the Path of The Hunt!"
"General Huaiyan stated: This is a monumental change that the Xianzhou has not seen in a thousand years. In the future, besides maintaining our opposition to [Abundance], we will also direct our efforts against [Destruction]!"
"As the saying goes, 'Those who dare to harm the Xianzhou, no matter how far they are, will be punished!'"
"Reporter Little Gui continues to summarize the report for you!"
Guinaifen put on a professional expression.
Then she returned to her usual mischievous demeanor.
She sighed, thinking she was truly an excellent journalist held back by the streaming industry.
She looked at the screen.
Just when she thought the meeting was about to end.
Jing Yuan suddenly asked, "With Elder Huaiyan's insight, how will the Marshal respond?"
Huaiyan pondered and said, "At this point, the chessboard is set for a game unseen in thousands of Amber Eras. In such a game, even the players themselves will become pawns fighting on the battlefield, and the outcome will determine the rise and fall of countless stars in the sky."
"This old man… cannot assert the Marshal's decision. But she is not unaware of all our concerns. She has already ordered General Yaoguang (General Rongtao) to conduct day and night calculations to strategize the grand plan."
"The reason we gathered here today is not just to discuss the challenges of Luofu, but also because there is something that requires the presence of all three of us—"
"Yaoguang has sent her communication seal from the Yuque Xianzhou, and she wants to share the results of her recent calculations and insights from the formations with us."
"Jing Yuan, I need to borrow the chessboard from the Seat of Divine Foresight."
...
"Huaiyan's words indicate that the progress of the Aeon War has advanced another step."
"Let me know when the Aeon War is about to break out. I'll invest all my savings. I've never experienced the charm of a full Eidolon character in my life."
"In the past, I was simply happy. But since playing Honkai: Star Rail, I've had to worry about the major events of the universe every day. Sigh, the universe will surely be destroyed without me!"
"This job is unbearable!"
"I'm going to resign before the Aeon War starts and travel to Belobog and the Xianzhou, following the footsteps of the Nameless."
"Brothers, do whatever you want now. When the time comes, we small characters will just be numbers in the news reports."
"Jiejiejie! Why don't all you cosmic friends join my Scepter of Calculation and become digital lifeforms? You'll gain immortality!"
...
Amidst the chaos of the comments.
A line of text appeared in the game.
[Deep within the Yuque Xianzhou, an ancient bell was struck. Its lingering waves slid over the gravitational hills.]
[Then, light burst forth from the chessboard's grid, weaving into the seal representing General Rongtao.]
Following that.
Yaoguang's voice came through: "Everyone, long time no see! It's been over thirty years since the last council meeting. I've been thinking of you generals day and night during this time."
At the center of the three generals.
A blue seal emerged.
Different hexagrams were dynamically appearing on it.
Feixiao chuckled, "Is General Rongtao concerned about us, or about the trajectory of our destinies?"
"Haha, General Tianji is still as straightforward as ever, not exactly endearing, though."
"Earlier, you even said to Mr. Jing Yuan that it's fortunate I came this time, and if it were General Rongtao, the questioning might not have been so friendly—I saw it all clearly. I wonder if this conversation actually happened?"
Jing Yuan smiled slightly, "I've never heard that the Ten Directions Light Reflection Dharma Realm can even calculate whispered secrets so clearly. It seems the Marshal didn't just send two generals to Luofu for the ceremony, but a third guest has arrived uninvited."
...
"There's another master!"
"Wow, this computational power is not just a bit stronger than the Matrix of Prescience!"
"Yuque is the headquarters of the Divination Commission, kid!"
"Wow! Is Yaoguang using hexagrams as emojis?"
"Why does Yaoguang call Mr. Jing Yuan? Are they acquainted?"
"Yu Ling, hurry up and open the Yuque Xianzhou!"
"I'm waiting for the Marshal to enter the gacha pool, the power will definitely be explosive!"
...
"After all, the Alliance always says that Mr. Jing Yuan's wisdom shines brightly, not inferior to Rongtao. With Luofu facing such a calamity, Yuque naturally won't stand idly by."
"General Rongtao, the Huangzhong system can only be maintained for a limited time. Let's keep it brief," Huaiyan advised.
"Alright. Thanks to Mr. Jing Yuan, the two prisoners (Luocha and Jingliu) have been interrogated by Yuque."
Yaoguang casually uttered this sentence,
which immediately put the players in the live stream on high alert!
After such a long time!
These two heavyweight figures haven't had any related scenes for a while!
And Jingliu has been boasting through others' mouths for an entire version!
Now,
are we finally going to get the follow-up on these two?
...
The Shackling Prison.
Jing Yuan was originally sitting on a chair, one hand propping up his cheek.
Lazily and casually watching the live stream of the plot.
Unexpectedly!
With Yaoguang's appearance.
The plot took a sharp turn!
Something big is about to be revealed!
You should know!
Because of the appearance of "Honkai: Star Rail."
Many things in reality have already changed!
Similar to the butterfly effect!
So.
Luocha and Jingliu haven't been interrogated until now!
After witnessing "Honkai: Star Rail," these two also decided to wait and see for a while...
And now.
It's equivalent to exposing their original intentions in advance!
Jing Yuan's expression turned serious!
He couldn't help but lean closer to the screen by a large distance.
He had a premonition.
That what Yaoguang was about to say next would be extremely important!
"In their self-confessed crimes, sending the Stellaron to Luofu aligns with Mr. Jing Yuan's speculation, but it's just a fabricated smokescreen."
"And the real goal... is to use this to get an audience with the Marshal, to present their strategy for contending with the gods—this is absolutely true."
"What strategy did Jingliu and that foreigner present?" Jing Yuan pressed.
"It's an indescribable, magnificent vision. The secret lies in the coffin of that blonde foreigner..."
Here it comes!
It's coming!
Next.
Every word Yaoguang says.
Even every punctuation mark would be etched into the hearts of many!
"...It's actually the remnants of The Propagation."
As soon as these words were spoken.
In the universe.
It seemed as if the sound of gasps echoed across various regions!
"The remains of Plagues Author?"
Yao Guang's tone also became grave as she replied, "To be precise, it's a part of her divine body. In the future depicted by the two prisoners, it is the nail that will firmly seal Plagues Author's path to doom."
"And before that—to contend with a god, a larger alliance is indispensable. For this purpose, they have also introduced an ally to the Xianzhou."
"I'm sure you've all heard of the name Ruan Mei, the 81st member of the Genius Society, right? The eyes of Yuque have seen that this uninvited guest has already arrived at the Xianzhou Luofu."
"Three, two, one. Right on time! As for how to receive this distinguished guest… allow me to toss this hot potato to you all."
...
"!!!"
"Ahhhhhh?"
"Damn, the ending suddenly dropped such a heavyweight bombshell?"
"Damn it! I knew there was something extraordinary in Luocha's coffin, but I never expected it to be this!"
"Luocha! What are you planning to do?"
"Good heavens, a fragment of an Aeon?"
"Ruan Mei: A fragment of the Insect Emperor? (Delighted)"
"A certain master in the field of insects has caught the scent and is on her way."
"This one is even more heavyweight!"
"Huh? All coming to Luofu?"
"Luofu: Oh no, they're coming for me."
"Ruan Mei wants to cultivate an Aeon. It seems The Propagation is indeed gearing up for a comeback."
"Wait! If Ruan Mei is here, what are Himeko and Uncle Yang doing now? (Himeko mentioned she was going to help Ruan Mei earlier…)"
"Ruan Mei, save our Jiaojiao!! We'll do anything!!!"
