Chapter 667 - 672: There Really Is a "Game" Path! You Can Even Watch Livestreams in Amphoreus!

Chapter 667: Chapter 672: There Really Is a "Game" Path! You Can Even Watch Livestreams in Amphoreus!

Little Gui’s livestream.

"See! Amphoreus is just too easy!"

"Look at Dan Heng’s words—"

"’Subjectively, it took us about twenty system hours to grasp the current situation in Amphoreus and establish connections with the locals. That’s a good start.’"

"What does that mean?"

"It means this interrogation was completely under Dan Heng’s control from the start!"

"He was certain you Chrysos Heirs wouldn’t dare to step out of line!"

"If you want to interrogate us, the Astral Express Crew, you’re still not quite there yet!"

Little Gui was completely immersed in the story at this moment.

Completely unaware,

That the outside world was already in an uproar over the plot of Honkai: Star Rail!

And now.

Countless eyes are also gathered within this live stream.

Quietly observing the subsequent developments.

...

[I didn’t expect Aglaea to be so heartless...]

Dan Heng, however, analyzed seriously: "But I feel her sudden outburst might have other reasons behind it."

"With so many mysteries, we can only face them with all our strength."

"After all, there’s no standard answer to Trailblazing. Apart from immersing ourselves fully in this world’s cycle and taking things step by step, there doesn’t seem to be any other way."

"Although there are still many questions, my mind is too tired to think... Phainon was right, let’s rest first and leave the problems for tomorrow."

As the story continues,

The live stream’s bullet comments keep flowing.

...17"Since things have come to this, let’s sleep first!"

"Having Teacher Dan Heng here makes me feel much more at ease..."

"Teacher Dan Heng! Peerless in martial arts! Teacher Dan Heng! Wise and courageous! Teacher Dan Heng! Unmatched in the world!"

"According to reliable sources, the real Astral Express Crew has also entered Amphoreus. I hope everything goes smoothly for them~"

"If only they could start a live stream, I’d like to see the differences between reality and the game..."

"Wishful thinking, Amphoreus has absolutely no signal."

...

Amphoreus.

Somewhere in the Abyss.

Dan Heng looked at the content on his phone with a surprised expression.

Not only could he watch the live stream, but even the bullet comments loaded!

This was really too... unbelievable!

"I clearly contributed a lot too!"

Stelle crossed her arms, looking unconvinced.

Her focus was on why the bullet comments were all praising Dan Heng.

She couldn’t find a single comment complimenting herself!

"If I hadn’t been charging ahead, how could Dan Heng have obtained information so easily?"

"Hmph... when Amphoreus data gets tallied, I probably won’t get a 3.0 rating, will I?"

While Stelle was muttering to herself.

Dan Heng focused on the fact that live streams could still be watched in Amphoreus.

He tried with his own phone.

And found that he could enter any live stream related to Honkai: Star Rail!

Other live streams had no signal at all.

This seemed to be the same situation as being able to log into the game normally!

Some incredible power was maintaining this connection.

Unaffected by interstellar communication restrictions!

"I think I know the reason now..."

Dan Heng’s eyes shifted,

"It should be Yu Ling’s authority, maintaining all this."

"I’m starting to believe now that the Path of games truly exists."

"In any case..."

"Since we can normally watch live streams and log into the game, things are much easier."

"I’ll contact the Express first, you keep following the Honkai: Star Rail storyline."

Stelle patted her chest: "Don’t worry, I’m an old regular in the live stream!"

...

At this moment.

The perspective shifts to the Chrysos Heirs side.

Tribbie stood in the garden, gazing at the Negative World Titan in the distance.

"...Aya, will this expedition go smoothly?"

"Do not hesitate, my Teacher. You are the one who interprets divine oracles for the Chrysos Heirs. Your wavering words and actions will shake the people." Aglaea said solemnly.

"I know, I know, but right now it’s just you and us here..."

Tribbie changed the subject,

"And... Aya, actually what I wanted to ask was, back at the vortex heart, you weren’t really planning to..."

"Of course not," Aglaea replied without hesitation.

"Ah... that’s good."

"Why ask when you already know? If you were certain I had murderous intent, you would have intervened."

"You saw right through me. We just wanted to know... Aya, what were you truly thinking?"

"...My original plan was to use exile as a threat to test the will and determination of those two."

"But I sensed Castorice’s unease. She trusts them and even secretly contacted Phainon, thinking I was unaware..."

"So I went along with it. I simply changed exile to execution, using the most extreme scenario to measure their resolve."

"At the same time, it could also foster a deeper relationship between them and Phainon and Castorice."

...

"So that’s it!"

Seeing this, Stelle showed a look of sudden realization!

She turned to look at Dan Heng: "Dan Heng, you didn’t see through their act from the start, did you?"

"I didn’t know."

Dan Heng didn’t even turn his head.

He was busy sending a message to Pom-Pom using the in-game chat.

"I was worried earlier that this Aglaea was really a threat to us, but it turns out it was all just an act."

"Now I can rest easy!"

After successfully sending the general situation to Pom-Pom,

a flicker of complexity flashed in Dan Heng’s eyes.

As for that previous message...

He had wanted to explain it,

but didn’t know how.

He could only stick to the facts.

Soon,

Pom-Pom sent a response.

[That’s great... What about Stelle, is she okay?]

Dan Heng replied: [Alive and kicking, just like before.]

After a slight hesitation,

he sent another message.

[Some kind of special situation must have occurred earlier. In any case, we’re fine for now.]

[We’ll stay in touch at all times.]

Pom-Pom replied with an OK emoji

and said they would immediately relay the news to Himeko and Old Yang.

Dan Heng let out a long sigh of relief.

His anxious heart temporarily settled.

He looked over at Stelle’s side.

The live-streamed plot was continuing.

...

"But this way, it’ll be even harder for them to trust you again..." Tribbie said with some concern.

Aglaea shook her head: "That doesn’t matter."

"One day, you and I will step off this stage, and the fate of Amphoreus will be handed over to others... That’s the future you saw, isn’t it?"

"...Yes."

Aglaea continued: "That divine oracle of salvation is murky and unclear. It urges us to challenge the gods but never reveals what the prophesied tomorrow looks like."

"For now, people are willing to believe in the oracle, which is why they gather around the Chrysos Heirs. But one day, if the faith of the world wavers... everything will collapse."

"So we must be prepared. What does it matter if you and I wear rags? We should focus on weaving the battle armor for the savior."

A barrage of comments suddenly erupted!

...

"Wow!"

"’The fate of Amphoreus will be handed over to others’? Could it be that this world’s sovereignty is going to be sold?"

"Interastral Peace Corporation: Are you thinking about me?"

"Does ’step off this stage’ mean what I think it means?"

"Yes, that’s exactly what it means. Both of them are certain they aren’t the ones who will reach the end of creation or salvation, so they’ve prepared to sacrifice themselves early to pave the way for the one who will eventually reach the finish line."

"Who is the savior, though? It’s really hard to guess!"

"If only Amphoreus could play Honkai: Star Rail too—it would absolutely overturn the worldview of every Amphorean."

...

Deep within the Abyss.

Stelle and Dan Heng were still intently watching the story!

Some detailed bullet comments naturally drew their focused attention.

After all, these were the Chrysos Heirs they would soon encounter.

Any extra understanding beforehand was valuable.

Suddenly!

Dan Heng’s expression shifted slightly!

He signaled Stelle to lower the volume.

Then,

he spoke gravely toward a certain direction: "Stop hiding. Come out."

Two seconds later.

A white-haired man hesitantly emerged from behind the ruins.

Stelle and Dan Heng were taken aback.

Then they exchanged a glance.

A knowing look passed between them.

The man was... Phainon.

The first person encountered in the story!

And in reality, it was the same.

However,

he wasn’t as composed as during his first appearance in the story—where he snatched Stelle’s bat and snapped Dan Heng’s Cloud-Piercer...

Instead, his expression was complex!

He seemed to hesitate, holding back words.

Like a young girl meeting strangers for the first time!

After a long pause.

He tentatively asked, "You two..."

"The message slab just now... it emitted the voices of Teacher Tribbie and Aglaea... right?"
