The silver-haired woman stood with her back to the camera. It was clearly visible that the ends of her long hair were curled into three distinct spirals.
Indeed.
That was Bronya's signature feature!
When the woman turned around, Welt was completely stunned, as if struck by lightning!
T-this is definitely her!
Bronya, when did you get here? And how did you end up playing the role of the Supreme Guardian's daughter?
Wait, no!
This Supreme Guardian is Cocolia.
Bronya was originally her daughter too.
But you two...
Did you guys get a new script and move here to be actors?
Is your mission back on Earth finished, and you came here for a career change because you were laid off?
Silver Wolf had already surprised Welt once before. Now, the game wasn't even trying to hide it. This was clearly a grown-up Bronya!
The name, the face, even the temperament were strikingly similar.
Unfortunately, the scene had been fleeting, and he hadn't been able to examine this Bronya's details closely. However, given the plot, he would surely see her again soon.
Welt set his phone down.
He needed to stand up and walk around the car for a bit. He gazed out at the deep universe and the brilliant galaxy, trying to suppress the absurdity of his emotions.
Just then, Himeko let out a small cry of surprise.
"Hm? The developer gave us 1600 Stellar Jade as a gift. They also mentioned a new limited character banner... oh, it's already live?"
"Welt, look. This is a new character. Her name is [Seele]."
"Who?"
The peace Welt had just managed to regain was shattered instantly. When he saw the character art on the screen, he was dumbfounded!
That hair color!
That butterfly motif!
That classic scythe weapon!
This was basically a grown-up Seele!
Fine.
Bronya is here, and now Seele is here too!
Did everyone get together and sign a contract for a game script while I was away?
Belobog is full of my old acquaintances!
"Welt, what's wrong?" Himeko asked with concern.
Welt felt that if he didn't vent his thoughts, he might suffer internal injuries. He proceeded to tell Himeko that these were people he knew.
After listening, Himeko pondered for a moment.
"I've encountered similar situations before," she said. "Some souls are so brilliant that they leave similar imprints even in different worlds."
"But one or two is one thing. If you're saying the entire planet is full of people you know, that is indeed very strange."
"Uh, actually, not all of them are acquaintances," Welt explained. "For instance, that Sampo and Gepard from the beginning were not."
"I see. Then I'm still inclined to believe they are just 'Similar Flowers'."
Welt nodded helplessly.
He would keep playing. If another one appeared... yes! If one more acquaintance with the same name showed up, he would have to go to that planet in person to see for himself.
Perhaps... it would feel just like going home!
Little Gui's Live Stream.
Her game progress was also quite rapid. She had already reached the Underworld.
She had met the elite of [Wildfire], Seele; the Underworld's local doctor, Natasha; the leader of the Moles, Pitch-Dark Hook the Great, and others.
Currently, she was preparing to assist [Wildfire] in handling a dispute between miners and vagrants over a new ore vein.
Guinaifen directly activated Himeko's Ultimate.
[Heavenly Flare] descended, instantly breaking three vagrants, and Himeko followed up with a follow-up attack.
The battle ended in a single turn.
Guinaifen couldn't help but exclaim, "Himeko is so strong against groups!"
"Aside from being a bit weak against elite enemies like Bronya, she's incredibly useful elsewhere."
"I have a bold idea if I pull an ultimate single-target character, won't I be able to handle every situation perfectly?"
The viewers in the stream began to reply.
"Genius!"
"How did you know I pulled Welt in ten draws?"
"Hehe, I just beat Bronya in one go using Welt! Welt's Skill is just too fast at breaking Imaginary Weakness shields!"
"You all have five-star characters? Excuse me, where do I go to claim mine?"
Guinaifen was liking her Himeko more and more by the minute.
She treated her like a treasure, equipping her with the family's best Relics, wishing she could train Himeko to be the strongest.
Then, she opened the Warp interface.
Looking at her 6,000+ Stellar Jade, she said eagerly, "Family! Do you think I should try to fish for Mr. Welt? I wonder if he'd be super strong paired with Miss Himeko?"
Just then, a new banner suddenly refreshed next to the standard one.
It featured Seele's image.
Below it, a Light Cone featuring Seele's image also appeared.
Guinaifen's first reaction was that she had encountered a bug. Suddenly, a mail notification appeared at the top of the screen.
She opened it immediately.
The first thing that caught her eye was a generous gift of Stellar Jade!
"Oh my god! How is there another 1600 Stellar Jade in my mailbox? Is the dev team giving out freebies again?"
"Wait, why did I say 'again'?"
Guinaifen made a "crying from happiness" face. She began to read the game announcement seriously.
Two minutes later.
"What? A new five-star limited character?"
"We haven't even met all the characters in the standard banner yet! And they're already releasing new ones?"
"They made Seele a limited five-star?"
"Lin Yu, your development efficiency is way too high!"
