Chapter 222: Firefly's prestige continues to rise! The most bizarre gathering begins!
Penacony.
Golden Hour.
Just as the players in the live stream expected.
Several scenes from the plot now had players rushing over to check in.
At the Clockie statue.
Many players were posing for photos with the statue.
There were also some players.
Who were following the Trailblazer's footsteps from the plot.
Embarking on a replica journey of Trailblazing.
"Trailblazers, can you see the Origami Bird?"
"Can't see it!"
"Before heading to Dream's Edge with Firefly, I even met Clockie!"
"That part of the plot really felt like a dream. I even unlocked Clockwork, which can change emotions?"
"Well, we are not the protagonist of 'Honkai: Star Rail', us normal players shouldn't expect to replicate that part…"
"I don't agree! I still have a childlike heart, I should be able to see Clockie!"
"Let's go, let's go together and see if we can find Clockie!"
"Anyone want to go with me to find the way to Dream's Edge?"
"Take me with you!"
"Stop looking, the Family has already cordoned that area off."
"Huh?"
"The Family is so boring!"
"Good news: The Family plans to build a dedicated check-in spot there. It'll be open once construction is finished."
......
Aside from the offline heat in Penacony.
Online.
Because the game plot referenced Robin's song.
The song exploded in popularity once again!
It was even more popular than when it was first released!
It went straight to the top of the galaxy's major music charts!
The comment section was also "conquered" by players.
[ Those who spent 20, 000 credits on Firefly, come reflect on yourselves. ]
[ This Trailblazer, please stop. Do you acknowledge that Miss Firefly's eyebrows are unparalleled in the 270 worlds? May Miss Firefly be with you. ]
[ Robin's song actually appeared in a Feathered Spirit game, my dual-fan heart is ecstatic! ]
[ We Star Rail players are eating so well! ]
[ Can she join the banner? I really like Firefly. ]
[ Reply: It's a lock. ]
[ Feathered Spirit better design Firefly as a Harmony character, adding buffs in the back while the Trailblazer handles the front lines. ]
......
Iris Family.
The various talent agents were going crazy.
They were desperately searching for Firefly's tracks, hoping to invite her to become an artist for the Iris Family!
A female celebrity agent was on the phone, speaking impatiently to the person on the other end: "How many times do I have to say it? Use every resource we have! Every resource! Understand?"
"Do I still need to explain how valuable Firefly is now?"
"If other agents find Firefly first, do you know what that means?"
"Don't worry, in the plot, the fake identity Firefly used was an artist from our family, which means she isn't opposed to this identity!"
"We'll invite her with the most sincere attitude, let her truly become an artist, and pour the best resources into her; she definitely won't refuse!"
"She's just an ordinary girl who loves adventure. With such generous terms, how could she refuse?"
"I don't care, according to the plot, she must still be in Penacony!"
"Unless she can transform and fly? Otherwise, how could you not find her?"
After hanging up the phone.
The female agent let out a deep breath.
Sitting on the sofa.
She said unhappily: "These useless bunch…"
"Can't even find a little girl's contact information."
"Why does the Family raise so many good-for-nothings?"
......
Guinaifen's live stream.
The plot continued.
Back to the Golden Hour.
The previously bustling street was now completely empty!
Following the plot's guidance.
She arrived in front of The Reverie in the dream.
From afar, she saw a figure standing there—Sampo!
"We meet again, my dear…"
"Sigh, it seems you didn't take my advice to heart at all… What a pity, is that girl really so fascinating to you?"
"You are truly… too blind."
Sampo showed a look of regret.
Just as Stelle was about to step forward.
Firefly stepped in front faster.
Her gaze became serious: "Be careful. Now I'm certain, this friend of yours is suspicious."
"Oh my, it seems this brave young lady wants to protect you. Why? Are you two that close?" Sampo teased.
"Cut the crap."
"I love your personality, my dear. I admit, you're different from that little gray-haired one; your nose is quite sharp."
"But even so, you're behind the main force. Haven't you discovered it yet—the secret behind this beautiful dream that the Family is hiding."
After speaking.
Sampo looked at Stelle again: "And as for you—the Trailblazer who saved the ice world… Sigh, just how much filler did that guy Sampo add to the story of Jarilo-VI? Forget it, it's my own fault for believing him…"
"I'm really, really disappointed in you."
As the words fell.
Stelle and Firefly suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.
Pink petals drifted around them.
Behind them.
Red goldfish slowly swam over.
At this moment.
It felt like a dream in the truest sense!
And at this moment, "Sampo's" eyes lit up with an eerie light.
A charming, evil smile: "Sorry."
"Please, just take a little nap."
"In the true dream."
The latter part of the voice was already a young girl's tone.
She walked up to Stelle.
Extended a hand.
And flicked lightly.
Stelle completely lost consciousness.
Collapsing with Firefly.
Before losing consciousness completely.
She saw the "Sampo" in front of her had completely transformed into a red-clad girl.
...
"Did Sampo hit puberty?"
"So Sampo is a crossdresser!"
"?"
"What kind of look is that?"
"Miss Sparkle!"
"I felt something was wrong! So Sampo was really someone in disguise!"
"Looks like that bro's warning earlier was right…"
"Old Sampo is slippery and mercenary, but he wouldn't go this low."
"Looks like it's confirmed Sampo is a Masked Fool."
"Is Sparkle this strong, easily knocking out the Trailblazer and Firefly?"
"She's really pretty."
...
"What's Sparkle's goal in knocking out the Trailblazer?"
"Could it be to break up the Trailblazer and Firefly?"
Guinaifen wondered.
As the scene shifted.
After waking up.
She found herself in an empty guest room.
At the same time.
She received a text message from the Astral Express Crew.
[ Himeko: Looks like it's time to return to reality ]
[ Himeko: Come to my room and gather ]
Stelle replied: [ Ran into some trouble… ]
But a prompt appeared below—
[ (Message failed to send) ]
"Looks like I have to explore this inexplicable place first."
"This doesn't look like the hotel we checked into…"
Guinaifen browsed the room casually.
This place looked a bit like an office.
Don't say it!
It was actually a bit like her own live stream room!
Some memetic substances were floating in mid-air.
Making the whole room filled with an eerie blue light.
The background music was a bit like the tune of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star."
But mixed with some discordant harmonies.
Before she even started exploring.
Guinaifen already had goosebumps!
A sense of weirdness welled up in her heart.
After seeing the twisted clocks on the wall and the cold light emanating from outside the door…
This feeling was even stronger!
And just as she was investigating the room.
On the wall,
On the bookshelves,
In the air,
Lines of subtitles actually appeared.
When she got close, a little boy's voice sounded.
"Mikhail, are you in there?"
"Mikhail, where did you go?"
"So quiet… only the ticking of the clock…"
"Tick… tock… tick… tock…"
Guinaifen couldn't help but shudder.
"Why does this feel a bit weird and scary…?"
"It's the hotel layout again."
"Damn, the immersion is fully maxed out now…"
......
Astral Express.
Seeing the name "Mikhail" appear in the room.
The Astral Express crew all perked up!
The name of a former Nameless!
It appeared again!
Pom-Pom was especially excited!
Its big eyes stared unblinkingly at the live stream screen.
Wishing it could jump inside.
"Finally, finally, is the plot about to tell the story of Mikhail, Pom!"
However.
Guinaifen was a bit cautious.
She investigated the room for a long time.
Seemingly affected by the eerie atmosphere here, she was a bit afraid to go out for a while.
Seeing this.
Everyone looked at each other.
And finally looked at Mr. Yang.
Mr. Yang nodded.
With a flick of his small hand.
He gifted five Super Skiffs.
Ten Diting Storms.
Twenty Astral Expresses ticket.
Under the baptism of the gifted rewards, Guinaifen would surely gain the courage given by the Astral Express crew!
Sure enough.
After receiving the continuous gifts.
Guinaifen's eyes lit up!
The original hesitation and doubt vanished!
"Thank you! …Uh… [ A Normal Animator ] FOR THE GIFTS!!!"
"The animator boss is too polite!"
"Sending so many at once, how could I, Guinaifen, have the face to accept them!"
"Oh oh oh, hurry up and advance the plot, right?"
"No problem, no problem!"
"No matter if there's a dragon's pool or a tiger's den ahead, I, Guinaifen, will forge ahead without looking back!"
Seeing the excited Guinaifen, who seemed like a different person.
March 7th couldn't help but tease: "Little Gui… you really understand Trailblazing…".
