Although they boarded the starship,
'Star-shatterer' did not plan to slowly warp this time.
Instead, she directly let the Phase Flame engulf the entire starship.
Sending them to the Astdana system.
And Penacony in this era.
Was not the luxurious star of celebration it would be in the future.
The power of Harmony had only recently arrived on Penacony; it hadn't even unified the various Families yet.
Although under the leadership of Sunday, the thoughts of the people were connected by the melody of Harmony, using the power of the Stellaron.
It became a giant tree to ward off dangerous Memoria, building an unbreakable defense line.
But while external threats were hidden, internal strife still plagued Penacony.
In 'Star-shatterer's memory, the conflict lasted a long time, only ending when Sunday was finally pushed to the brink and turned against Harmony.
She wasn't sure of the exact circumstances.
In any case,
the current Penacony was not the sought-after resort destination of the future.
Only those chasing danger and opportunity came here.
Coupled with the disputes between the original inhabitants of Penacony and the Family, and the IPC lurking outside.
It was not an exaggeration to call it dangerous.
"Honestly... I actually think it might be better for you to take your former comrades and leave."
Before approaching Penacony, 'Star-shatterer' spoke with Ifrit about the planet.
And she learned a lot about Penacony's past and the Astral Express's past from Ifrit.
"I know that many of those original inhabitants are not what you would call good people, and the Family likely harbors dark intentions, but regardless, there are many innocent people who crave freedom, and they need to be saved. This salvation is not violence, but an ideology."
Penacony was originally a prison for criminals.
Given the IPC's style, there were probably many innocent people born there.
But that didn't mean the entire prison was full of innocent people.
After Ifrit joined the Galaxy Rangers and traveled across so many worlds,
he finally realized what Penacony lacked.
A prisoner, even if they break their physical cage, cannot find true freedom.
Because what imprisons them is their own heart.
Back then, they drove away the IPC, but they didn't achieve freedom,
because they didn't know what to do after the IPC was gone.
Ifrit didn't know then either.
But now,
having consulted so many senior Galaxy Rangers, Ifrit understood.
And Ifrit was returning with that very purpose.
Only by unlocking the cage in their hearts could these people seeking freedom find true freedom.
"You really seem determined."
"Of course. In the years I was locked out, I kept thinking, constantly thinking, what more could I do if I could return, beyond my martial skill?"
Ifrit's tone became particularly wistful.
He looked out at the vast star sea, feeling the familiar Memoria-rich void.
His eyes were filled with fierce determination:
"I have been making futile preparations for that ethereal dream. I thought I would die in some corner of the cosmos with those wasted efforts, but now, I am truly back."
Ifrit looked at 'Star-shatterer', showing a brilliant smile:
"My efforts no longer seem futile. The void's dream seems to be turning into reality. I think I can really lead Penacony to chase freedom once more."
When Ifrit said this,
the woman who had traveled with him watched his eyes, filled with longing.
'Star-shatterer' wasn't sure if that longing contained worldly desires.
But she certainly found this Ifrit charismatic, and the future he spoke of incredibly dazzling,
which was why she was willing to come to this dangerous world.
"Then I wish you success."
When playing the game before, 'Star-shatterer' hadn't thought deeply, and many game texts hadn't been thoroughly scrutinized.
But now it seemed that with so many villains mixed in, the native inhabitants might not be entirely pure either.
Plus, there was the later Dreamscape era, which drew a large number of outsiders to Penacony.
Sunday was a big shot in Harmony; he was eventually forced to switch his belief to Order.
It was clear how much chaos had unfolded in those few centuries.
It was genuinely hard to say who was completely innocent.
'Star-shatterer' watched Ifrit.
She was also a little curious about what this 'Harmony' born within the Path of the Hunt would eventually evolve into.
"Well, just consider this a final warning: no matter how sweet the Family's words are, the danger of the Stellaron cannot be eradicated. Penacony cannot function without the Stellaron right now, but you need to be careful not to be deceived by it."
"Thank you, Madam Star-shatterer."
'Star-shatterer' rose from the chair.
The silver ring on her left hand gradually seeped firelight.
Zhurong's blast that day had almost destroyed her little snake.
Fortunately, 'Star-shatterer' specifically allocated power to protect it.
Otherwise, her wonderful little magical gadget would be gone.
"Don't thank me. I will send you and the starship into Penacony, but how you sneak into the Dreamscape and rendezvous with your comrades is up to you."
'Star-shatterer' didn't intend to waltz in with them openly.
She hadn't forgotten that she was, after all, an Annihilation Gang Lord.
Her previous cooperation with the Galaxy Rangers could be rationalized as mutually beneficial.
But privately, she was still maintaining close contact with Ifrit.
The Family would likely use this as an excuse to cause trouble.
After speaking,
the Phase Flame released by 'Star-shatterer' consumed everything and everyone except herself and the starship.
Then, in the blink of an eye,
she appeared in the cosmos without any protection.
The dense Memoria made 'Star-shatterer' feel a little strange.
But it was a shame she didn't possess the skills of a Memokeeper.
'Star-shatterer' had sent off Ifrit and Camille.
She herself was flying toward Penacony at a steady speed.
Her goal was to ensure that the current Penacony discovered her presence.
As the target planet grew nearer,
'Star-shatterer' felt a certain familiar scent.
It was the power of Harmony.
And the very subtle power of Destruction mixed within Harmony.
Logically, the existence of a Stellaron should be difficult to detect.
But 'Star-shatterer' was an Annihilation Gang Lord now.
The presence of a Stellaron could not escape the eyes of an Annihilation Gang Lord.
However,
the Stellaron was indeed disastrous, but the current Penacony genuinely needed the Stellaron to sustain itself.
'Star-shatterer' didn't plan on simply taking the Stellaron away.
Just as she was thinking this,
a warning voice suddenly came from Penacony:
"Halt, traveler. Penacony does not welcome the Emissary of Destruction."
"Oh?"
'Star-shatterer' smiled.
She raised her hand, and a silent melody of Harmony smoothed over the incoming hostility:
"Then, does Penacony welcome an Emissary of Harmony?"
"..."
