"No shame, no regrets!"
"Why am I unworthy? Why must I kneel?"
"Right or wrong, truth or lie?"
"Choice has nothing to do with right or wrong..."
The singing continued to climb, higher and higher.
Behind the screen, the players watching the MV were already stunned and speechless.
A surge of heat rushed through their spines and into their brains, as if their scalps were on fire!
No one could have imagined it.
That's right, how could this freaking off-brand fan game have its own theme song?
And the quality of this theme song was actually this high?!
As they listened, they found themselves standing up, feeling an immersive sense of reality.
Most importantly, when the song ended and they scrolled down, players discovered something astonishing!
In the credits for the MV titled "the nameless one", the vocalist was actually—
Robin?!
[Huh?]
[Holy moly, this theme song is explosive! It's so good, I have to listen to it again!]
[Kids, is this right? This immersive feeling... where's that person who called it an off-brand fan game? Does your off-brand fan game have a theme song like this?!]
[Old Ji is a god!]
[No, wait, I feel like there's a lot of information hidden in the theme song. Any experts care to interpret?]
[Who cares about the game right now? Quickly scroll down and see who the singer is!]
[The singer... holy crap, what am I seeing? Robin—?!]
[Is Order's Dream still chasing me? Is it that world-famous superstar Miss Robin? She's the singer of this MV?!]
[I knew the voice sounded familiar! It really is her! I'm a huge fan!]
[Something's not right. What exactly is the identity of this game's Author? Normal interstellar companies definitely have no way to contact, let alone get Miss Robin to sing for them!]
There was no time to praise the explosive Amphoreus theme song, because next to appear was...
The galaxy-renowned Halovian singer, superstar, and famous philanthropist of The Family, who once assisted the Astral Express Crew in saving Penacony—Miss Robin!
Regardless of the game itself, Robin's fame alone could attract a massive number of players to Xu Qiong's game.
Facing the astonishment and questioning from the community, Xu Qiong naturally chose to stay hidden and hummed softly behind the screen.
On his phone, under an icon with a little blue bird.
Xu Qiong's fingers tapped away.
[Xu Qiong: Sorry to trouble you. I heard you pushed back your performances for the next few days for this.]
[Xu Qiong: At least let me compensate you for the losses of these past few days.]
[Robin: It's no trouble. Since you explained the situation to me, I will naturally do my best.]
[Robin: Pom-Pom Happy.jpg]
[Xu Qiong: Pom-Pom Thumbs Up.jpg]
[Xu Qiong: But I might need your help for a long time in the future. After all, I've prepared quite a few short films that need your vocals.]
[Robin: It's alright, I'm very happy to sing for you.]
[Robin: Back in Penacony, I still haven't figured out how to thank you for what happened with my brother.]
[Robin: Besides, these lyrics are truly wonderful. I don't think this is just a simple transaction or a favor.]
[Xu Qiong: Then I'll be sure to trouble you often.]
[Robin: Contact me anytime.]
[Pom-Pom Heart.jpg]
Closing his phone, Xu Qiong let out a long sigh.
"Connections, the Car Circle..."
To save Aha Star, he had used everything at his disposal, pulling together the power of the entire universe!
Unlike the community's shock.
After Welt and Himeko finished watching the video, their faces showed more of a heavy silence.
"It's over."
Welt said flatly.
Staring at the MV as it reached its end, many things were completely different from what they had guessed.
Initially, the reason the two were wary of this video was the fear that the game's Author was truly related to Aha Star and would send them some distressing messages about Stelle and Dan Heng being harmed.
However.
It now appeared that not only was it not a recording of them being harmed, but Stelle even seemed to have become some kind of Deliverer figure in this PV?
But what felt wrong to Welt was that every line of lyrics in this MV seemed to be trying to say something.
About a certain event?
Or about a certain person?
"Who planted the seeds of karma for me?"
"Born with shackles, unable to break free..."
Who was it hinting at?
Welt murmured to himself, but currently, there were no clues out here; everything was a mystery.
The only clue was the singer of the MV.
Miss Robin!
"Welt, this seems to be the only clue right now, but why would it involve Miss Robin..."
"I've asked Sunday to investigate this and gave him a general explanation. I think since it concerns his family, there should be news soon," Himeko mused.
If she was the singer, she might know something.
Welt nodded.
Despite this, what happened this time still caused quite a stir in their hearts.
Looking at the game that had already finished downloading, Welt felt that this trip to Aha Star would likely not be so simple.
The other party not only knew the Astral Express Crew very well, but he even seemed to have a thorough understanding of every faction in the galaxy—the Genius Society, the Stellaron Hunters, and even The Family.
So, who could he be to achieve all this?
"Just who is he?!"
...
"Who else could it be?"
"It's her! It's her!"
"I recognize her, everyone! It's Aglaea!"
In Guinaifen's livestream, while she was battling Nikador, golden threads suddenly rained down from the sky.
Accompanied by the words "Do it," a golden Weaver appeared upside down in mid-air, assisting Phainon in piercing through Nikador in one strike.
Seeing this, Guinaifen immediately shouted with excitement.
[Whoa! So beautiful!]
[Mommy!]
[Tell the Knights of Beauty, I've found Idrila!]
The livestream was also in an uproar.
At the same time.
Aglaea also brought some shocking news.
This wasn't the real Nikador; the Ember wasn't here.
In the conversation with her, Guinaifen learned that Aglaea was the current leader of Okhema and had even foreseen the attack by the strife.
"So Okhema wasn't suddenly attacked and overrun? Is it a strategy like the Empty Fort Strategy?"
"Luring the enemy into attacking, then finding their location to counterattack."
"This strategy looks like it was planned single-handedly by Aglaea and the Chrysos Heirs?" Guinaifen pondered and evaluated while playing.
Unexpectedly like an iron-blooded leader.
But her image was calm, heavy, elegant—a mature and beautiful older sister.
However, her pupils were unfocused, and her eyes seemed unable to see; it was said to be a trait of the Chrysos Heirs that set them apart from commoners.
Unfortunately, Guinaifen felt it was more like a curse.
Living in the apocalypse, carrying the burden of leadership while blind, yet possessing such strategic vision?
Guinaifen truly admired this character!
It couldn't help but remind her of the Generals of the Xianzhou; like them, she was also so charismatic.
"Everyone, I really want this one!"
"I wonder if the Author will make Aglaea a playable character too?"
Guinaifen had just finished speaking while pointing at the screen.
Unexpectedly.
The bullet chat quickly chimed in.
[Guinaifen, don't you know yet? Quickly check the honkai: star rail community, the big-shot Author has shown up!]
[The latest 'the nameless one' MV was released. Both the vocals and the lyrics are absolutely explosive!]
[Guinaifen is a prophet, isn't she? Kill the prophet!]
[The top-up system is officially open, and the latest character really is Aglaea!]
Guinaifen: "Huh?!"
