[Hanabi:......]

[Firework: Sister Fu Ruo, I'm embarrassed for you.]

[Fu Ruo: How presumptuous of me! Isn't it fun? Isn't it interesting? Why isn't there any reaction at all?]

[Topa: Let's not focus on these unimportant things for now. I've heard that the Glazed Light Belt was created by a Great Lord of Annihilation, but there's no need for Burning Wind to ambush the Nameless Guest so far in advance; it's not worth it.]

[Gold Sand: The question now is, is this "in-only" blockade of this star system a temporary measure, or a trap designed from the beginning?]

[Topa: What's the source? What is the source?]

[Jade: Perhaps... a star core?]

[Opal: This is quite possible. Mr. Walter once said that there is a star core in the glassy band, but it's still unclear who placed this star core.]

After all, the destruction faction has a branch that has spread.

It doesn't seem too difficult for others to obtain it either.

[Robin: ...So, after leaving Pinocchio, my brother went straight to his death with the train crew?]

【Sunday:......】

[Sunday: It's too early to draw conclusions.]

[Fireworks: But if we don't leave on Sunday, won't we still be wanted?]

[Robin: That's an internal matter within our Harmonious Faction.]

Jiang Jiu was actually somewhat prepared for all possibilities.

Not to mention the train crew being trapped in the glass light belt.

Jiang Jiu had anticipated that he would directly collide with the Burning Wind upon entering the Glazed Light Belt.

When did this happen?

"what?"

"Only in, no out."

Fu Ruo tilted her head and thought for a couple of seconds: "Well... I don't remember the exact time, but I'm sure that the Great Lord of Annihilation never intended to let this place go from the very beginning."

She stood up and patted off non-existent dust from her clothes.

“The mourners thought they had found a place where they could grieve to their heart’s content, but in reality they had only moved into a giant cage.”

"And the owner of the cage..."

She looked at Jiang Jiu, her smile deepening.

"We're watching you."

Fu Ruo smiled happily, as if she could remain detached from the situation.

"Do you think you can escape? If the Burning Wind comes, everyone will die... including you." Jiang Jiu looked at Fu Ruo and questioned her calmly.

"Oh! This~" Fu Ruo smiled even more happily, "Because of pleasure."

[March 7th: What does "pleasure" mean? Does it mean she finds it fun to be killed by the Lord of Annihilation? I really can't understand the Masked Fool's thought process...]

[Star: If the thought process of the Masked Fools could be understood, they wouldn't be called Masked Fools.]

[March 7th: What time is it already...? The Burning Wind is coming soon. This star field only lets in and not out. She's clearly going to die, yet she can still be grinning like an idiot...]

[Dan Heng: Fu Ruo's attitude doesn't reflect the severity of the situation. The most important thing now is to figure out the blockade mechanism of this star field and the exact location of Fen Feng. Just observe the attitudes of Hei Ta and Jiang Jiu.]

[Topa: The situation is indeed tricky. A sealed-off starfield, a star core of unknown origin, an Annihilation Lord hiding somewhere, and a group of innocent civilians trapped here. It seems like a dead end.]

[Gold Sand: But with Jiang Jiu and Black Tower present, and both envoys involved, it's not entirely hopeless.]

[Jade: Victory is possible, but what's the cost? Burning Wind is no ordinary opponent; he's the most terrifying being among the Destruction Envoys. If Jiang Jiu goes all out, what will be left of this star field?]

If the two envoys fight, let alone people, how can the luminous belt still exist?

[Shu Ju: It seems that Lady Black Tower is under no less pressure than Jiang Jiu. Even protecting the people in this star field during the battle between the two Annihilation Lords is difficult.]

[Zhenzhu: If Lord Jiang Jiu can intercept Fenfeng outside the star field before he makes his move, the damage to the star field's interior can be minimized.]

[Topa: Is it possible?]

[Jinju: I don't know.]

Facing the nameless guest who was single-mindedly thinking about how to survive, and Jiang Jiu who was pondering where Burning Wind would be, Fu Ruo looked at the Great Lord of Annihilation who claimed to be dealing with the end of the world and thought for two seconds.

Suddenly, without any warning, he began to talk about the essence of pleasure.

"Jiang Jiu, do you know what Le Zishen saw when he climbed the Tree of Existence?"

Jiang Jiu ignored her.

Fu Ruo continued speaking on her own, regardless of how much Jiang Jiu actually listened to, or whether she listened to a single word.

She didn't care much.

Regarding the nature of pleasure, and regarding the beginning and end of pleasure.

The "yǔ" in "yǔyù" (joyful) is not the same as the "yǔ" in "yǔ" (entertainment), but rather the "yǔ" in "yǔyā" (pleasant).

Jiang Jiu's reaction after listening: Baffling.

He completely ignored Fu Ruo and turned to say a few words to Hei Ta.

"you sure?"

"It's highly likely. The star core might be interfering with the train's warp drive. I'll deal with the star core. You take a few of them back to the train. No matter what, we have to get on board."

"Leave this to me. Come back alive!"

Once the logic holds true, there's no time to hesitate.

Walter Yang's intelligence was roughly the same as what the two geniuses had guessed. He quickly contacted the three little ones and took Black Tower directly to the train.

Just as Jiang Jiu was about to leave, Fu Ruo suddenly called out to him.

"Time's End!"

Jiang Jiu paused, clicked his tongue in annoyance, and said, "If you really don't want to live anymore, I can send you off first—"

Don't you want to know why the God of Fun likes you?

Fu Ruo stared at Jiang Jiu and said, word by word.

"It's because in His eyes, everything you did—all that you sacrificed to protect those who were unrelated to you, your determination to try again even in dire straits..."

"They are the most brilliant light of life."

"Those are the most powerful mockery of nothingness!"

[March 7th: ...Huh? What did Fu Ruo just say? The essence of pleasure? Why does Le Zi Shen like Jiang Jiu? Eh? Why don't I understand anymore? Weren't we just joking around?]

[Star: That's right, you don't understand. I didn't understand either. We're a perfect match!]

[March 7th: What nonsense is this! Don't you think it's strange that she's suddenly saying these things? She was always joking around before, how come she's suddenly...so serious?]

[Danheng: Perhaps she was never really joking around. Perhaps those "unserious" things were just her way of expressing herself.]

[Himeko: What Furuo just said didn't seem like a spur-of-the-moment decision; it seemed more like... something she had prepared for a long time.]

[Walter: The determination to try again even in dire straits, the most powerful mockery of nothingness...? What is she telling Jiang Jiu?]

[Pam: Why does Pam feel like... Lady Furu is relaying a message from Aha?]

[ScrewGumm: I think this isn't a message, it's a reminder.]

[Aista: Lord Screw King is right! Jiang Jiu's condition has been terrible lately. When the little girl guarding the tomb disappeared, I felt he was on the verge of a breakdown. If Lady Black Tower hadn't appeared in time, he might already be...]

[Star: It has completely vanished into nothingness.]

[March 7th: Yes, oh no, oh right... no, why are you being so direct!]

Jiang Jiu did not linger.

Watching Jiang Jiu's departing figure, the image lingered on Fu Ruo's face, where the smile was slowly deepening.

"Go for it, Shi Jin."

She spoke softly.

"Let me see what your pleasure is like~"

"By the God of Fun~ The show is about to begin—"

After saying that, she transformed into a mask and fell to the ground with a thud.

Then it exploded into a wisp of mist.

Movie Review (100) - If Foehn wants to touch Lady Black Tower...

[Firework: Oh my, Sister Furuo has finally shown her true colors! I thought she was just a silly girl... Turns out she can speak human language too!]

[Fu Ruo: Little Firework, what you said seems a bit harsh. Did I do something wrong before?]

[Fireworks: Isn't that right?]

[Fu Ruo: ...Hmm?]

[Silver Wolf: You Masked Fools all know each other? So what exactly is Fu Ruo's identity? How come she seems to know more than the ordinary Masked Fools?]

[Firework: That's a good question, Sister Fu Ruo, who exactly are you?]

[Fu Ruo: I'm just an ordinary masked fool~ I've just lived a few more years, seen more things, and said a few more things~]

[Sambo: You've lived a few years longer? Fu Ruo, don't you feel guilty saying that? You've outlived most people in the tavern!]

[Fu Ruo: That's rude of you. How can you just casually say a girl's age?]

[Sambo: ...I wasn't even born when you were young.]

[Fu Ruo: That's because you were born too late~ It's not my fault~]

[Firework: Alright, alright, nobody wants to hear you two bickering. Now everyone's probably more interested in knowing what Sister Fu Ruo meant by that.]

[Fu Ruo: How should I know? Drag me out of the video and ask me! Besides... do you really think that's me?]

Silver Wolf realized in a matter of seconds that Fu Ruo was an envoy of the pleasure faction and had a strong desire to compete with her.
