Belobog.
Central Square.
Snowflakes drifted down.
But the square was not cold at all.
Some tourists even took off their coats.
The light snow became a decoration.
Many people gathered to watch the storyline.
Both Belobogians and tourists.
At this moment in the storyline.
Lynx sought Qingque's help to restore part of the Jade Abacus's content.
On the big screen.
The recorded content of Belobog's legendary warrior Igor during his lifetime was being played.
"Trust me, with your skills, you could definitely make a name for yourself in the interstellar circuit. Prize money, fame... what others can't earn in a lifetime, you can achieve with a wave of your hand!" The company employee's voice was excited.
"Winning... of course, I'm happy, but I hope people will listen to my post-match speech," Igor said solemnly.
"I know what you want to do. I've heard about what happened to your hometown."
"In fact, many worlds have been attacked by Nanook's mad army. So I have to remind you, the audience paid for excitement, they're not interested in hearing your doomsday warnings."
"Igor, you're a miracle. A fighter from a border planet making it to the finals in Pier Point, there haven't even been ten in history. Kid, cheer up!"
On the spaceship's window.
Igor's reflection appeared.
The curve of his lips disappeared.
Her tone grew heavier: "I'm just a toy to entertain them. Look at what I've done... I cut off my perfectly good arm and replaced it with a corporate prosthetic, all just to make the matches more dangerous and thrilling."
"If my mother saw me like this... she would be heartbroken."
The corporate employee was unfazed, even a bit excited: "If your mother saw the prize money you're winning now, she would understand!"
"With my prize money, could I buy an army?"
"...To afford a standard-equipped mercenary army, you'd need to win at least twenty more championships and secure countless endorsement deals. Can you last that long? Can your hometown last that long?"
In the square.
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
Only the sound of the passing tram rang out, unusually crisp.
Everyone knew.
This city had weathered countless storms.
It had survived only through the "Preservation" of generations of Belobogians.
And now.
Witnessing the Hero of that era struggling to seek help everywhere.
Yet powerless in the face of reality...
It truly brings a sense of heartache and regret!
Even the visiting tourists feel this way.
Not to mention the local Belobogians!
In their hearts,
Igor is a legendary hero.
The stories passed down through generations all speak of his bravery and fearlessness!
How he drove the monsters from the Rift into a panicked retreat!
As if he were invincible!
Yet, there are rarely such delicate descriptions!
He too had moments of helplessness and despair...
Many Belobogians have already shed tears.
After a moment,
someone couldn't help but exclaim,
"I can't imagine how desperate Igor must have been back then..."
"He was truly always thinking of ways to save Belobog, to save this city."
"Luka also got a mechanical hand, but he lost his arm protecting others, while Igor lost his for the sake of a performance..."
"This is even darker and more realistic."
"Wuwu... this is the situation the city faced hundreds of years ago..."
"I can't believe I'm now touring and visiting such a place..."
"Look at how well they've built it now! If Igor could see it, he would surely be very pleased!"
...
In the universe,
Inside the Belobog spacecraft,
Everyone continued to focus on Luka's performance in the storyline.
During the previous battles,
Luka would always experience hallucinations,
seeing his opponents as monsters from Belobog.
This time, when facing Topaz, it was even more absurd!
He actually hallucinated Topaz as Cocolia.
After the battle,
Stelle took Luka to see Lingsha for a consultation.
Lingsha gave her diagnosis.
"Being in a foreign land, it's inevitable to feel some nervous tension. This restless mental state was exacerbated after you drank the Sweet Dreams Soda."
"That drink contains a lot of memory essence, originally meant to enliven dreams and bring pleasant sleep. But for some reason, it amplified your sense of unease, ultimately triggering severe hallucinations."
Lingsha suggested that Luka explore more of Luofu to experience the impact of new things.
She also gave him a small Tuskpir to aid in his treatment.
Seeing this round, chubby little creature,
Sushang beside them immediately became as excited as if she had been injected with adrenaline!
"Oh my god... what is this? Let me touch it! Oh my god... what is this? Let me touch it!"
"Oh oh... so cute, baby, you're a strawberry bun~ mwah, baby, mwah~"
Faced with Stelle's advice to calm down,
Sushang only got more excited!
She said with conviction, "Faced with such an adorable creature, I can't be rational at all!"
Lingsha quickly added, "This is a Tuskpir from the Zhuming Xianzhou, mild in nature, sweet in taste, but not edible."
...
"Mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah!!!"
"What is this? Let me lick it! What is this? Let me lick it!"
"Sushang is exactly like me when I see this little cutie!"
"Querying Sushang's mental state."
"Everyone is searching: [Does Sushang have an IQ of 80?]"
"Oh my goodness, it looks so delicious, no! So good to touch!"
"The texture... no! The feel is especially good!!!"
"Topaz trap.."
"Sushang baby, you're a big yellow peach can ah ah ah."
"It's over, Sushang's character has collapsed, now she's a perverted girl."
...
Luofu, Starskiff Jetty.
Sushang had just stepped off the Starskiff.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"I've been out on field duty all day, I'm exhausted."
"Finally, it's time to clock out!"
"Let me see what's new in the Honkai: Star Rail event!"
She opened the live stream.
A familiar voice rang out!
"~Mwah, baby, mwah~!!!"
To ensure she could receive messages in real time, Sushang had even turned the volume on her Jade Abacus to the maximum.
The sudden blaring sound was like a loudspeaker!
It immediately startled many passersby around her!
They quickly turned to give Sushang strange looks!
Sushang hurriedly turned the volume down!
What the heck!
Where did this come from!
What's going on with the Honkai: Star Rail storyline?
If I didn't know better, I'd think I was watching something weird!
Who is this anyway!
Why is there such an abstract voice in the storyline!?
It's almost as bad as Skott the Lone Wolf!
After turning the volume down.
Sushang took a closer look.
It felt like she had been hit in the head while chest-crushing a boulder!
She was stunned!
"This... this can't be me!"
"How could I make such a strange sound!"
However.
Her own "episode" was still ongoing!
In the storyline, she was blushing with excitement.
Pointing at a strawberry daifuku on the ground, she said, "Hey! You two! You must have other things to do later, right? Carrying this baby must be really inconvenient, right? Right, right?!"
"You go ahead and take care of your business. I'm just heading back to the Skysplitter to deliver medicine to the team… As a Cloud Knight, I'm always ready to help others and do a good deed every day. This Tuskpir, I can help you carry it back to the restroom! I'll just hold it for a bit, I won't keep it for myself!"
After getting permission.
She then made a sneaky expression!
"Come here, baby, hehehe~ A little Tuskpir like you was born to be eaten by Sister Shangshang~ hehehe~"
"Mwah? Mwah! Mwah mwah mwah!"
...
"3! 2! 1! Tuskpir connection!"
"Lick it, twist it, and dip it."
"It's hard to imagine what Sushang would do with this pet after getting it…"
"This is the most cultured episode of Sushang, she actually used three idioms in one breath!"
"The poor girl's face is all red from holding it in."
"I'd like to call her Lady Sushang!"
...
Ahhhh Honkai: Star Rail, you're making a fool out of me!
My image is completely ruined, wahhhh!!!.
