Chapter 666 - 671 Dan Heng: Am I Seeing Ghosts? Too Many Things Defy Reason!

Chapter 666: Chapter 671 Dan Heng: Am I Seeing Ghosts? Too Many Things Defy Reason!

Luofu.

Starskiff Haven.

"You two look unfamiliar. Where would you like to go?"

The Starskiff driver enthusiastically asked the passengers in the back seat.

In the back seat.

Himeko glanced at Black Swan.

Black Swan gave a slight nod, returning a "you understand" look.

Clearly,

she had used the power of Remembrance to temporarily alter their appearances, to avoid being swarmed by players as soon as they arrived on Luofu.

They were here to try and save March 7th, after all. Better to keep a low profile.

"To the largest park near Aurum Alley," Himeko replied.

Hearing this,

the driver’s face showed a flash of understanding!

"Oh~ You distinguished guests are heading to the ’[Beautifully Frozen Girl]’ attraction, right?"

???

Himeko was stunned!

What on earth?

They’ve turned my March 7th into a tourist attraction?!

Has it already reached the point where even random passersby know about it?

The news spreads way too fast on your Luofu!

I should never have let March 7th come to Luofu.

Keeping her on the Astral Express, I could have taken care of her anytime...

Fortunately,

Himeko’s heart had already endured several shocks today.

After a brief moment of sorrow, she composed herself.

"That’s right, driver."

"To that... ’[Beautifully Frozen Girl]’ attraction."

"Alright, you two hold on tight. I’m famously fast on Luofu!"

...

"This will be hard to explain to the Astral Express."

"Miss March 7th encountering such a situation on our Luofu was truly unforeseen."

Jing Yuan sighed.

At that moment,

a Cloud Knight hurriedly arrived before the tent.

"Reporting, General! Miss Himeko of the Astral Express has arrived at the entrance!"

"Accompanied by the Memokeeper Black Swan!"

Jing Yuan’s drowsy eyes instantly opened wide.

"Quickly, invite our honored guests inside."

Soon,

Himeko and Black Swan entered this temporarily erected tent.

Centered on the area where March 7th was frozen, the park’s facilities had been dismantled.

A large canopy had been erected.

The area where everyone stood was its outer section.

Himeko was the first to arrive at the observation area.

She looked toward the situation at the center of the field.

"March..."

Though she had mentally prepared herself, Himeko couldn’t help but feel heartache seeing this frozen scene.

"General Jing Yuan, we need to observe from a closer distance," Black Swan spoke up.

"Of course, Miss Black Swan’s abilities are evident to all. Perhaps you can resolve this misfortune for the Nameless."

"Haha, General Jing Yuan, please don’t flatter me."

Arriving at the center of the field.

One could feel the air turning cold.

Himeko called out softly.

As expected, March 7th showed no response.

Soon,

a strange expression appeared on Black Swan’s face.

She said, "Miss Himeko, it’s difficult for me to describe this feeling in words."

"I can only say..."

"Aside from the situation of her memories being held hostage, it seems... there is also a peculiar force protecting her."

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, Himeko was somewhat surprised.

"Could it be that March 7th herself possesses some hidden power?"

Black Swan shook her head: "I cannot provide an answer to that question."

At that moment,

a voice sounded from behind the two of them.

"Indeed, I share the same view."

It was Fu Xuan.

Seeing their gazes focused on her,

Fu Xuan slightly straightened her posture and lifted her chin,

assuming an air of presiding over the situation.

"March 7th is not in serious danger. Though unconscious, her life is not at risk."

"I suggest... we first watch the storyline of Honkai: Star Rail to see how events unfold. Perhaps we can find corresponding clues within the plot."

Himeko’s gaze shifted slightly: "So... it has come to this after all."

After a moment,

she seemed to accept the reality before her.

Turning around,

she addressed Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan behind her: "Everyone from Luofu, thank you for taking care of March 7th."

"You’re too kind, Miss Himeko. The entire universe is now concerned with the fate of the Astral Express. We have merely done what we can."

"Then... let us continue watching."

Himeko’s heart remained unsettled.

At this point,

all they could do was wait and see what followed.

She hoped everything would go smoothly for Welt and the others...

And also,

for Dan Heng and Stelle, far away in Amphoreus.

This time,

they must return safely.

...

Amphoreus.

Somewhere in the Abyss.

Amidst a pile of rubble,

Dan Heng’s eyelids suddenly trembled several times.

Then,

they snapped open!

His eyes were coated with a layer of clear, radiant light.

Pushing aside the stones covering him,

he looked into the distance.

His pupils instantly contracted!

"She’s gone..."

He remembered that before being knocked unconscious, Stelle had been in that very spot.

Now, not even a trace of her remained!

"Damn it..."

"Is this another upheaval in Amphoreus?"

Dan Heng’s fists clenched slightly!

Within his heart,

a surge of anger began to rise!

The train had been pierced through.

Stelle had lost her vital signs...

And now!

Even her body had been taken away!

All talk of trump cards and probing... none of it mattered anymore!

The instigator must pay the price.

"Amphoreus... you’ve gone too far!"

Symmetrical red eyeshadow appeared at the corners of his eyes.

Azure dragon horns sprouted from his forehead!

Just then,

a familiar voice sounded from behind.

"What do you mean, ’gone too far’?"

Dan Heng froze!

As if his transformation had been abruptly interrupted,

all changes on his body instantly receded, returning him to the usual cold Little Azure Dragon.

Turning around...

Upon seeing Stelle completely unharmed.

His heart was instantly swept by a tidal wave of shock!

Am I seeing a ghost!?

Not only did she come back to life.

But,

She’s practically as good as new!?

The wounds, the blood—all of it has vanished without a trace.

As if nothing had ever happened before!

For a moment, Dan Heng even wondered if he had been dreaming.

"Here, your phone."

"I just found it near the train."

"You can lose other things, but not this one."

Stelle stood with her hands on her hips, speaking with confidence.

Seeing that Dan Heng still seemed utterly bewildered,

Stelle couldn’t help but tease, "This Amphoreus isn’t all that tough, huh?"

"This Galaxy Batting Hero just took a nap and we’re here."

Dan Heng brushed the dust off his clothes and said, "Only you would call losing consciousness ’taking a nap.’"

Outwardly, he was agreeing with what Stelle said.

But inwardly, his mind was racing!

He had thought this Trailblaze journey to Amphoreus had veered off the plot from the very beginning...

But now, it seemed to have aligned again!?

Though it was all rather baffling...

Seeing Stelle alive and kicking once more,

This feeling wasn’t so bad after all.

"I just tried sending a message in the group chat, and as expected, it failed to send."

"Looks like it’s just you and me this time~"

Sending messages!?

Right!

He had tried doing the same back then.

In the end, he had sent a message to Pom-Pom through the friend chat in Honkai: Star Rail!

Thinking of this,

Dan Heng immediately opened his phone!

The phone that had been nearly shattered earlier was now perfectly restored!

Could it be...

That it really was all a dream!?

The moment the screen lit up, the main interface of Honkai: Star Rail greeted his eyes.

And in the chat interface at the bottom left,

It was still frozen at the moment he had sent the message to Pom-Pom.

[Attacked upon arrival, Stelle lost vital signs]

In the chat box, there was also an unfinished line he had typed—[We need]

It wasn’t a dream!

It really wasn’t a dream!

Then... it was likely that some kind of incredible power had brought her back to life!

Dan Heng looked up at Stelle standing before him.

He saw her also staring thoughtfully at her phone screen.

Dan Heng’s heart skipped a beat!

Suddenly, another possibility crossed his mind—

Could this Stelle before him... be a fake!?

Was it possible she had been replaced?

"Hah, my screen is still stuck on Little Gui’s livestream," Stelle said excitedly, pointing at her own screen.

Hearing this,

Dan Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If she knew about Little Gui’s livestream, she definitely couldn’t be a fake.

Wait!?

Little Gui’s livestream?

You can watch livestreams here in Amphoreus?

That doesn’t seem... quite right.
