The compilation of the Trailblazer on the big screen continued.
[In Belobog]
[When cornered…]
Her chest was pierced by Cocolia's ice spear, but she didn't die.
Instead, she awakened the Path of [Destruction].
She picked up the flaming spear.
And pointed it at the enemy in the sky.
...
"Flaming Spear, charge!"
"The most badass form of the protagonist."
"Stelle: Yes, this stubborn one is going to pick it up!"
"The first god-tier moment in Honkai: Star Rail!"
"I was so hyped when I saw this part in Little Gui's stream!"
"It was so epic when I first cleared this as a newbie [crying]."
"When Wildfire plays, I'd even dare to fight an Aeon!"
...
[Gaining the Aeon's gaze purely through her own will!]
The scene seamlessly transitioned to Penacony.
The final battle against Sunday.
"The so-called [Trailblaze]…"
"Is to walk further along the paths left unfinished by those before us."
"The Penacony in Mikhail's dreams does not belong to [Order]!"
The gaze of [Harmony] followed immediately.
The atmosphere at the scene was instantly pushed to its peak!
On the stage.
Brilliant fireworks exploded!
Accompanied by tsunami-like cheers.
At this moment.
Even Stelle herself felt a surge of excitement!
She couldn't help but put her hands on her hips.
Feeling like she was absolutely amazing!
"Next up, we have another activity!"
The host's voice rang out.
"As everyone knows…"
"Right now, the latest storyline of Honkai: Star Rail is unfolding!"
"We will invite the Trailblazer to watch it with us in real-time!"
With the atmosphere already at this level.
Stelle naturally had no reason to refuse.
Before coming, she had already been watching the storyline with March 7th on the train.
Now it was just a bigger venue.
Stelle appeared full of confidence.
After all.
She had nothing but highlight moments in Penacony!
This main storyline would surely be no exception!
She immediately nodded.
Accepting the host's invitation.
The crowd also began chanting her name!
"Trailblazer! Trailblazer!"
"Bat-wielding hero! Bat-wielding hero!"
"Stellaron spirit is awesome!"
Enjoying the cheers of everyone.
Stelle's lips curled into a smile.
This feeling…
Wasn't too bad.
As she took her seat in the guest area.
Soon.
The latest storyline appeared on the big screen.
The negotiations between the company and the family had concluded.
Now it switched to [Firefly]'s perspective.
"Sneaking in was easier than I thought. The family's security is still full of holes."
On the deck of The Radiant Feldspar.
Firefly observed her surroundings while sighing in her heart.
"So this is The Radiant Feldspar… it's really luxurious."
"Through a pawnshop where you can fulfill your wishes by mortgaging something, does such a place really exist on this ship?"
"Whether the rumor is true or not, I can only find out for myself."
Looking around.
Soon.
Firefly arrived at the Main Banquet Hall.
A familiar figure caught her eye!
"Is that... Stelle?"
Stelle paused briefly at the foot of the stairs.
Then she dashed upstairs, seemingly drawn by something interesting.
Firefly couldn't help but remark, "She disappeared in an instant. So the Astral Express is here too."
On the scene.
Stelle smiled slightly.
This time, the storyline...
Wasn't from her own first-person perspective.
Instead, she saw herself through Firefly's eyes!
How intriguing!
In Firefly's eyes, she must appear even more elegant and dashing, right?
Nearby.
Robin was conversing with a waiter.
Robin: "...Oh, and one more thing."
"Mr. Oti and I have already discussed it. To express our gratitude for the Nameless's contributions to Penacony, I will present a gift to the Astral Express In the Name of The Family."
"Please help prepare the necessary arrangements."
The family waiter nodded. "Right away, Miss Robin."
Firefly first inquired about the location of Lady Ciyu from the waiter.
Then she headed straight to the second floor.
Since Stelle had run in that direction earlier, following the same path might lead to an encounter.
Upon reaching the second floor.
Indeed!
She saw Stelle engaged in a fierce... showdown with an Intellitron man!?
Stelle's gaze sharpened: "If I win..."
"Your treasure chest is mine!"
At these words.
Many players couldn't help but burst out laughing!
The Intellitron man also looked puzzled: "...Who said I was going to gamble with you?"
"I did!" Stelle declared, hands on her hips.
Firefly thought to herself with a smile, "So spirited, just like before."
"Sorry, Stelle. I need to find Lady Ciyu first."
...
"A healthy, confident smile."
"As expected of me."
"So cute, Sister Stelle~"
"Truly divine, it made me laugh."
"Classic Stellaron behavior, staying true to character."
"Hahaha, the Trailblazer is always full of boundless energy."
"That's what I said (confidently)."
"Passerby: Truly divine. Firefly: Truly spirited!"
...
On the scene.
The audience erupted into laughter.
Stelle herself scratched her head, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Sigh!
The game Honkai: Star Rail is great in every way.
It's just that sometimes...
When you want it to be serious, it insists on playing around with memes!
Leaving Stelle feeling slightly awkward now.
The once confident and majestic Trailblazer style had been somewhat diluted.
The story continued.
Firefly followed the coordinates to Lady Ciyu's location.
As expected.
Lady Ciyu was none other than Jade.
Firefly was still using the fake name Samuel, which Silver Wolf had hacked for her.
After a brief exchange of greetings.
Jade got straight to the point.
"Samuel, a fine name indeed. So, Miss Samuel, what is it that you desire? And what are you willing to give in return?"
"I want to live. For that wish, I am willing to stake everything I have," Firefly said earnestly.
A wanted criminal of the company and a high-ranking executive of the company...
Two individuals who should have never appeared in the same frame.
Yet here they were, standing together.
It sounded absurd.
But it had indeed happened in the storyline of Honkai: Star Rail!
Of course.
Their current identities were not that of a wanted criminal and a high-ranking executive.
But rather, the owner and guest of Ciyu Pawnshop.
"Everything you have?"
"Yes, everything."
After hearing this.
Jade suddenly turned around.
"Miss Samuel, please leave. I think you don't yet understand the true meaning of pawning."
"I can sense your intense desire to live, it burns like a flame; but in contrast, you have nothing of equal value to offer as collateral."
"Hah... I see."
Firefly immediately stopped smiling and shook her head.
"So, this pawnshop that claims to fulfill wishes through pawning... is just a bunch of smoke and mirrors."
Jade replied indifferently, "That's quite a harsh accusation. It's understandable that you don't get it. But it's fine, I'll help you see clearly."
"Go and find these people, they've all visited my pawnshop. Use your own eyes to witness whether their wishes have come true."
"Then, come back to me, and I'll help you understand what pawning truly means, and what you're still lacking."
Firefly quickly checked on the recent statuses of Lady Ciyu's customers.
All three had their corresponding wishes fulfilled.
This added a layer of mystique to Jade!
After all, she was one of the Ten Stonehearts.
Her identity was completely different from your average charlatan.
Seeing all this.
Many players began to wonder.
Could it be...
That Jade truly had the ability to grant time-limited wishes?
Having obtained the results.
Firefly was about to return to Jade.
However.
Stelle appeared right on cue in her line of sight.
She was with Dan Heng in an area surrounded by balloons.
"Which one should I pop?"
Feeling a bit hesitant.
She started reciting a rhyme.
"One, two, three, four, five..."
"Dan Heng fights the Voidranger..."
Dan Heng's mouth twitched, "Don't just change the lyrics."
By the time they reached the ship's cabin.
The two were in the middle of a conversation.
"Hey, did you see that?"
"That gray-haired person outside..."
The Pepeshi showed a seasoned expression and warned, "Don't stare, just drink your wine!"
"That person seems mentally unstable..."
Taking a glance at the channel deck.
Sure enough...
It's Stelle again!
This time.
She even climbed onto the back of the sculpted bird outside the railing.
Squatting there, teasing a pink Origami Bird.
"Chirp, chirp..."
"Origami Bird... Little Chirpy..."
...
"I really am hahahahahaha, is this how I usually am?"
"The unique beautiful mental state of our little gray-haired one."
"Speaking of which, except for the Nameless, others can't see the Origami Bird... So in the eyes of passersby, we're lying on the ground going crazy at the air..."
"This is too much fun!"
"Who's that mentally ill person? Oh, it's me, never mind then."
"Oh my Wooboo!"
"Think about the Stellaron in Belobog, how insane that was! So how could our little Starlet's mental state possibly be stable?"
"The protagonist is consistently performing."
"So this is how my daily life looks from others' perspectives? So crazy?"
