They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 153: Zero Deaths Successfully Achieved
When Dan Lei stepped out of the wormhole of the fourth mirror, he saw Walter knock out Star Core Energy, which was running rampant, with a single blow, interrupting the rampage.

Seeing that the battle was over, Dan Lei walked forward with a pretentious air and said coldly.
"I mean, can someone explain to me what's wrong with this girl? I can sense the power of the star core, and there's a lot of residue on her body. Is the stolen star core inside this girl?"

Danlei's arrival now is completely belated for the train crew; he's come far too late.

So, March 7th, who had just been rescued by Xing and was holding Xing, immediately complained.
"Danlei, why are you like a cop in a movie, only showing up after everything's over! We were almost wiped out by the Doomsday Beasts."

When asked about March 7th, Dan Lei looked directly at Walter and Dan Heng, but both of them awkwardly turned their heads away.

Clearly, neither of them used their full strength in the battle against the Doomsday Beast.

Because with their combined strength, each of them could easily take on a single Doomsday Beast if they went all out.

It would be fine if Walter didn't go all out. He probably thought that with his backup plan, the younger generation could practice against stronger opponents, and even if they lost, they could learn from the experience.

Of course, this was without his knowledge that Danheng had a second stage.

Let's not bring up Danheng anymore; let him keep it to himself.

Actually, this was already extremely dangerous. If Xing hadn't gone to save March 7, theoretically, the "ordinary girl" March 7 would have been blasted into dust by the antimatter bombardment of the Doomsday Beast.

At that time, Danheng will only be able to cry while holding the ashes (ice shavings) from March 7th.

Seeing their reaction, Danlei didn't bother to expose them and explained to March 7th...
"After I leave you, I will go after the two people who left traces of destiny energy in the room."

After catching up, I discovered it was the Star Core Hunter Kafka and Silver Wolf. I then kept chasing them, thinking that the Star Core that disappeared in that room was on them.

However, sensing the burst of star core energy here, I teleported here urgently. They should have escaped by now.

After saying that, Dan Lei took out Kafka's knife, coat, and Silver Wolf's arm armor to prove that he had indeed just fought against the Star Core Hunter.

The Star Core Hunters are now infamous throughout the universe. Although it's a notorious name, all factions know that their members are incredibly powerful.

This can be seen from the bounty amount offered by Interstellar Peace Corporation.

Kafka 10.899 billion, Sam 9.723 billion, Blade 8.13 billion, Silver Wolf 5.1 billion.

These bounties are a price that any bounty hunter would be willing to risk their life for.

Even for some of the company's middle and senior management, this is a considerable sum of money.

To put it simply, the development funds that Himeko painstakingly saved up after repairing the train (including the expenses already incurred for purchasing supplies) were not as high as Silver Wolf's bounty.

In his previous life, Danlei was a player who started the game at launch. By version 3.3, he only had a little over 4.8 million credits in the game.

But the Star Core Hunters are still alive and well, not only plundering Star Cores everywhere, but also causing widespread chaos and even the collapse of civilizations.

From any perspective, the Star Core Hunters would be categorized as terrorists.

So Danlei said he was chasing the Star Core Hunter and hadn't paid attention to anything else, which the train crew could understand.

Even March 7th was starting to feel sorry for Danlei, saying...
"Star Core Hunters? I've heard their bounties are incredibly high."

Danlei, you were able to disarm them, wouldn't you have had the upper hand in the battle? It's such a pity that you let them go like that.

If I could get that much money, then…

To this question, Dan Lei simply flicked March 7's forehead, pulling her out of her money-related fantasies, and then said...
"How can money compare to life?"

If the star core were to erupt here, the space station would be completely destroyed.

A space station can be rebuilt if it's destroyed, but I can't bring the people inside back to life once they die.

"Even if I tear the Star Core Hunter to pieces and torment his soul for eternity, it will be meaningless."

Dan Lei's words resonated with the values ​​of everyone present, and they all nodded silently in agreement.

March 7th was also one of them, so naturally he didn't dare to talk back and could only scratch his head to change the subject.

That's the logic.

Oh, come look at Xing, that's the girl, she's fainted again.

You guessed right, the stellar core energy erupted from her body. Quickly check if her body is damaged.

It's no secret that Danlei possesses medical skills and abundant life force; the entire train crew knows this.

So Danlei squatted down, lifted Xing's hand, and took her pulse.

Then Dan Lei sensed that Xing's pulse was unusually weak, a condition usually seen in terminally ill people nearing their deathbed.

However, by examining Xing's pulse more often, one can sense that Xing's condition is actually constantly recovering.

Although it's not as fast as when the star core was injected, which took only a few breaths to return a frozen person to normal, it will still only take two or three hours.

Therefore, Danlei directly provided the answer by referring to the game's storyline.
"Her pulse is very weak right now, but there seems to be a force within her body that is rapidly restoring her health."

Based on the current rate, she should recover in about two or three hours.

However, I cannot be sure that this unknown force will continue to help her recover.

Just to be on the safe side, send her directly to the medical pod. If that power suddenly disappears, the medical pod can keep her alive while she awaits other treatments.

Danlei's treatment plan was fine. On March 7th, he simply draped Xing's arm around his neck and pulled her up.

Danheng probably felt guilty for not using his full strength earlier, which led to Xing's current state, so he wanted to support Xing's other arm to help bear the burden.

However, Dan Lei directly stopped him.

"Danheng, shut up. Trying to take advantage of that girl again? I'll get someone to help you up. Go reflect on something else first. You know what I mean."

After saying that, Danlei used the substitution magic to replace the android Sheila, and made a temporary stretcher out of cloth and a few steel bars, so that she could help carry the stars on March 7th.

Then Danlei turned to Ji Zi and said...

"Miss Himeko, would you please accompany Mitsuki and this Miss Hoshi to the infirmary?"

There should be very few antimatter troops left on the space station now, but there may still be some that have slipped through the net.

Furthermore, the girl needs to take off all her clothes and change into special gowns before entering the medical ward, and it's not appropriate for the rest of us men to be present.

Danlei's request was reasonable, so Jizi naturally wouldn't refuse.

However, as she passed Dan Lei, Ji Zi whispered...
"Dan Lei, I know you seem to have a bit of a disappointment in Dan Heng."

However, give him some space and time; pushing him too hard can backfire.

Dan Lei simply nodded slightly at Ji Zi's words and said nothing more.

Of course, Himeko wouldn't ask Danlei to make any promises. After giving him a reminder, she simply followed San Yueqi and the others.

After Himeko and the others left, Danlei said to Walter and Danheng...
"Alright, let's head back to the main control module first. On the way, please tell me what happened on your end." Walter and Danheng naturally had no objections and told Danlei everything that had happened since they returned to the space station from the Star Train.

In fact, the experience of the Star Train is only slightly different from that in the game; most of it is the same.

After entering the Black Tower Space Station, Walter stayed behind to guard the train, in order to prevent the Antimatter Legion from invading the Black Tower Space Station and destroying the train.

Himeko and the others went to find Estádio, just like in the original story.

Even if they were to defend the Black Tower space station, the train crew would have to contact Estádio first and follow her orders.

Fortunately, Danlei bought enough time that Himeko and Estádio met before the antimatter legions that had breached Danlei's defenses began their attack on the space station.

Since this wasn't a sudden invasion, and it was aided by Dan Lei's beetle golems.

Under Estádio's command, and with the help of Loretta and her subordinates, Alan led the defense team to quickly divide the antimatter legion that was running rampant in the space station and began to eliminate it.

The three train crew members arrived at the main control cabin. Himeko stayed behind as a precaution, while Danko and Mitsuki went to support areas under pressure as a mobile force.

Not long after the two set off, Xing's distress signal was suddenly received. Dan Heng and March 7, as members of the mobile unit, were naturally sent to check what was going on.

Next comes the plot: after Danlei left, Xing, on March 7's advice, picked up the strange object [baseball bat] as a weapon and fought her way back to the main control room.

This time, however, there's no need to rescue Alan.

When the star arrived at the main control room, the plot took a slight turn.

When the Doomsday Beasts attacked, Himeko saw that the space station was no longer capable of fighting, so she volunteered to join the battle.

Xing was supposed to stay in the main control room, but March 7 had already built up trust in her after the previous battles.

Therefore, she took the initiative to suggest that Xing was also a considerable fighting force and could help fight against the Doomsday Beast.

Of course, this suggestion was made by March 7th without knowing how strong his Uncle Yang was or how powerful Dan Heng's hidden strength was. He believed that having more combat power would increase their chances of winning.

Xing naturally wouldn't refuse March 7's request, because Kafka had implanted a suggestion in her with the power of words, making her feel at ease to follow the person who found her.

Himeko noticed Hoshi's special nature and felt it would be safer to keep her by her side, so she agreed.

Following Estelle's guidance, the train crew arrived at the port platform of the Black Tower Space Station, the point of contention between the fateful battle against the Doomsday Beasts.

Because the Star Train was parked here, Walter was able to join the battle from the very beginning.

But the final result remained the same. Since the enemy was just a Doomsday Beast, Welt and Himeko exchanged a glance and understood that this battle was meant to be a test for the three young people.

Then, just like in the story, Xing, Danheng, and Sanyueqi joined forces and, with the support of the two "old men," managed to defeat the Doomsday Beast with great difficulty.

However, the three forgot to finish him off, giving him a chance to fight back desperately with his antimatter cannon.

And then, needless to say, from Walter's and Danheng's perspectives, they already knew what happened to Danlei afterward.

Actually, Danlei was just putting on an act here, just to prevent himself from accidentally revealing things he shouldn't know and being unable to explain how he knew them.

Therefore, Danlei remained a listener throughout the entire session and did not ask any specific questions.

Upon returning to the main control unit, Estella, who witnessed how Dan Lei single-handedly wiped out an entire antimatter legion, showed Dan Lei exceptional respect.

Here, Estelle and the others were unaware that the fluorescent green wings were not actually Dan Lei's ability.

As mentioned before, the battles of top-tier Destiny Walkers are so close that ordinary people can't even see them with the naked eye. If the naked eye can't keep up with a battle, it's even more impossible to keep up with it using a telescope.

In short, after this battle, Estádio felt that it was really stupid of her to have worried that Danlei would fight her for power.

Although Dan Lei is not a genius, he is still one of the strongest in the universe. He might actually be dating Lady Black Tower, so he has been shamelessly staying on the space station.

After all, when pursuing a girl, it's normal for guys to be a little shameless.

Estelle knew what it was like for her brothers to pursue the girls they loved, and she had also seen many young men shamelessly pursuing the other sisters in the family.

Moreover, from the perspective of male-female relationships, Ms. Black Tower often met Dan Lei in her true form. Even after removing Dan Lei from his assistant position, she did not mention taking back his room and even asked to pick him up from the airport herself.

It's clear that Ms. Black Tower has a special regard for Dan Lei, and this couple is very likely to get together.

Aistar already considers Danlei her future boss and husband. With Ms. Black Tower absent, Danlei represents Ms. Black Tower.

So when she saw Danlei return, she immediately came up to report the situation.

When Dan Lei saw Aista approaching, he didn't stand on ceremony and asked directly.

"Miss Estella, are there any casualties on the space station?"

Estella answered this question instantly.
"There were no deaths, but a dozen or so members of the Defense Section were wounded in the battle against the Antimatter Legion."

But everyone was rescued, and with our medical capabilities, no one will be left with disabilities; at most, they'll need some rest.

Dan Lei nodded after hearing this, indicating that his efforts had not been in vain, as the goal of zero deaths at the Black Tower Space Station had been achieved.

Then, Danlei asked again.
"Understood. What's the current situation on the space station? Have all the relevant permissions been regained?"

With the silver wolves gone, there was naturally no one to compete with these staff members for space station access, so Estádio nodded and replied.
"We've got everything back now, but all the on-site surveillance footage from the time the intruders controlled the site is gone. Other data wasn't lost."

As for the space station, the protective shield system suffered multiple damages, and there was a breach in the outer wall of the space station.

The extent of the loss of items within the station is currently unknown.

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei realized that the space station had actually suffered no damage.

The damage to the protective shield system was caused by the Doomsday Beast, and the damage to the outer wall was from the warehouse where I fought Kafka.

Moreover, when Dan Lei glanced at the main control module, he didn't see the widespread anxiety and unease among the space station crew members in the game. Instead, they looked at him with admiration.

Clearly, Dan Lei's performance in the previous battle gave them the feeling that they still had a pillar of strength.

Now that even psychological issues were resolved, Dan Lei naturally prepared to relinquish his responsibilities and directly addressed Aista.

"You did a great job. You can decide what to do next inside the space station."

Next, I plan to go outside and search the surrounding area for any remaining remnants of the antimatter legion, in case Azure Star is attacked by those surviving remnants.

"By the way, contact me immediately once Black Tower receives the message and returns, or once Miss Star wakes up."

After saying that, Danlei had the fourth mirror open a wormhole to the outside world, leaving the rest of the space station's affairs to Está.

　I checked the credit count of over 4.8 million when I opened the game while writing this chapter.

　　I always thought I had an endless supply of credits, but I didn't expect to find out how little I have left.
