Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go

Inside the Starry Sky Train, as everyone was looking forward to heading to Thousand Star City, Cheng Xiao suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Wait a minute, isn't someone missing?"

"Huh? Who is it?" Xing asked, looking puzzled.

"Where's Yao Guang?! Where did Yao Guang go?!" Cheng Xiao discovered the problem after inspecting the area.

Bai Heng: "<(ºOº)> General Yao Guang is still trapped in the world of the painting!"

(Yao Guang: The world...forgot me....)

After a chaotic scene, Cheng Xiao successfully freed Yao Guang from the world within the painting.

"Phew—although I predicted good fortune and smooth sailing in everything, I never expected to wait so long for victory." Yao Guang patted her chest. If she didn't receive news of victory soon, she would have to find a way out herself.

"Haha...there was a little accident."

Cheng Xiao scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

"It's alright. Now that you're out of trouble, sir, things must have been resolved satisfactorily. I'm not bored at all; Miss Feiying is keeping me company in that painting."

"More or less. Guiji has been brought to justice, but the problem of gluttony has not been eradicated."

"I see... then there's still a headache to be had." Yao Guang frowned, looking troubled.

"When gods fight, mortals suffer. What happens next is beyond the reach of a mere celestial general like myself."

Fei Ying paid no attention to any of that; she looked at Cheng Xiao excitedly, her pink ears twitching:

"Wow! The entire Nichi-Hara Paradise has been restored! No wonder it's Xiaoxiaolong from 'Sora no Koro ni Furuko'! That's amazing! Can I have an autograph?"

"Of course, but what exactly is Xiaoxiaolong?"

"Hehe, he's a super big shot from 'The Loose Sky Loose Ship'." Fei Ying took out the comic book and showed Cheng Xiao the cartoon image of Xiao Xiaolong.

Author: Teacher Two-Dimensional Ma.

Well, it really was that guy Xu Zhao who did it. Very much in line with Aha's style.

Cheng Xiao glanced through it briefly, and wow, it seems that Aha had been paying attention to it since the train departed.

"Hey, Xiaoxiaolong, look, look! I even have some side stories here, like 'The Love-Hate Relationship Between Yunwu Team and Xiaoxiaolong,' 'Xiaoxiaolong's Culinary Adventure,' and oh right! There's also the 18+ story 'Xiaoxiaolong's Defeat'... Sorry, I took the wrong one~"

Wait, did something terrible just sneak in?

You lousy cartoonist, what kind of fan art have you created?!

After experiencing so much trouble, even Cheng Xiao felt a bit tired. After arranging things for Yao Guang and Fei Ying, Cheng Xiao returned to the train.

At this point, everyone was already discussing the dice that had returned to silence.

"Old Guiji, you said this die is a prize, but what is it actually used for?" Xing asked directly.

"Hey, hey, hey, this is so rude to an elderly person! Is this how you ask a question? Give me some respect!" Gui Ji was very dissatisfied. This generation of pioneers was simply too low in quality.

"Huh? Old Deng, you're not joking right now, are you? Do you know your place? You're a prisoner, a captive. You won't answer, huh? My baseball bat has plenty of ways to make you talk. Dignity, my foot! You've got all that dignity eaten by dogs!"

March 7th agreed, "Exactly, they're still so arrogant. As pioneers, they not only don't give us gold coins, but they also create a bunch of troubles for us to clean up."

Silver Wolf's projection appeared, tapped the keyboard, and said, "Don't misunderstand, I've already allocated Guiji's pension to the Star Train's budget. It's not much, but it's still a bit of gold coins."

"You bastard! Are you kidding me? Fighting is one thing, but taking someone else's pension is just too inconsiderate!" Guiji became agitated upon seeing the silver wolf.

"Who cares about you? I can't beat you, but can't I at least disgust you a little?" Silver Wolf disdainfully raised his middle finger.

Guiji gave up struggling after being thoroughly taught a lesson by the young man.

"Forget it, it's all about the winner and the loser. I didn't leave anything for the younger generation, but this die is very useful, so consider it my compensation..."

"So what exactly is it used for?"

"You can use it as a teaching tool. If young pioneers need to hone their skills or find the journey boring—just toss it up. It will bring them unique and interesting adventures, but whether it's good or bad... depends on the probability."

"That sounds interesting. Let's try it now." Xing found it intriguing and immediately wanted to roll the dice.

"Isn't this a bad idea? After all, it's something on the head of the Great Lord of Annihilation. In the end, is this die the head or that hand?" March 7th was a little worried.

"Why worry about all that? Just build it!" Xing's curiosity was at its peak.

"Wait! Star passenger, stop right now!!!" Pam noticed the commotion and shouted in terror after seeing Star's movements.

"What are you doing, Pam? Don't you want to give it a try?"

"You guys almost got into big trouble, you know that!" Pam took a breath and reprimanded them sternly.

"Pam recognizes this thing. I think this wicked guy is playing a trick on you."

"Oh? Then Pam, explain the function of this thing. I will decide how to deal with disobedient prisoners based on the results." Xing twirled the baseball bat with style, but the powerful force made Gui Ji break out in a cold sweat.

"So never roll the dice carelessly, or everyone's blood pressure will go up and down," Pam said with lingering fear.

"Train conductor, it's so disheartening to hear you say that. Isn't it true that only adversity can temper a pioneer?" Gui Ji's tone was full of regret.

"That's just something to comfort you when you're down on your luck! Don't use it like that in everyday life, Papa! This thing is too dangerous, don't use it carelessly. Just cover it with a rag later."

Pam was speechless.

Himeko walked over and said, "Ms. Shinju, Ms. Eyo, and Ginrou, the three of them will be staying at Nijisan Paradise. The company's staff will temporarily handle the losses at Nijisan Paradise, but most of it has already been restored, so the losses shouldn't be too great. Now, let's head to Thousand Star City."

Walter said, "Himeko and I just discussed that although most of the people have escaped through the tavern, the people on the train still need to be evacuated. We've split into two groups: Hoshi, Sanyue, Chengxiao, Baiheng, and Sunday. I'd like to ask you to go to Thousand Star City."

Himeko: "As for us, we will stay in Nissou Paradise to ensure that no further anomalies occur."
