Wanjie Game Hall, I sent Kiana to Silent Hill

One could only say that face is like that, sometimes good, sometimes bad. Sometimes the sun is shining, sometimes it's cloudy. Although things like luck do exist in the world, Wang Xuanqiao didn't want to see it and blocked his vision.

Feixiao watched as her seemingly large savings vanished in an instant, almost in half, and she had no choice but to call it quits. She quickly calculated the remaining amount in the prize pool and realized that if she could mobilize more people to participate in the lottery, she could actually get the injection for a hundred times less than the original price.

As for whether it will be picked up by someone else along the way, we can just negotiate another deal then.

"Alright, I've got it figured out." Fei Xiao formed a general idea and prepared to go back and get everyone else to come to the arcade to get a card and then participate in the lottery. For example, Jing Yuan, he had helped him a lot during the martial arts ceremony, so he should at least return the favor.

Before leaving, Wang Xuanqiao helped Feixiao connect to the cross-border information interaction station in the game hall. He connected both Yuzhao and the newly drawn mobile terminal so that she could choose which one to use.

Feixiao also asked Wang Xuanqiao for a cardboard box to store the vegetable drinks she had drawn. Then she left the game hall carrying the herbivorous dragon's hind leg meat in one hand and the cardboard box in the other, looking like she was going home after buying vegetables on the street.

After dealing with Feixiao's affairs, Wang Xuanqiao decided not to return to the Luofu Immortal Boat today. Since Bianca was going to start supervising Kiana's studies, he probably didn't need to stay at the Yichen Inn to accompany Kiana overnight.

This time, the whole night was truly silent. Wang Xuanqiao lay comfortably at home all night, feeling refreshed.

Soon after, the Luofu Immortal Boat officially kicked off its Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony to demonstrate its prosperity and stability and show the power of the Immortal Boat to the outside world.

Originally intended for war, the Jingfeng ship had been repurposed as a plowshare, finding its remaining usefulness beyond the battlefield. The massive cannons mounted on its hull were raised to the sky, unleashing a series of thunderous salutes in accordance with the strict etiquette of the Immortal Ship.

During that time, the Star Rafts surrounding the Jingfeng warship's inner harbor were like a road during rush hour, practically jammed with traffic. After all, the Jingfeng warship also had a throughput limit, so the Star Rafts had no choice but to queue up at the back.

Such a bustling scene made the Cloud Cavalry, who had witnessed Hu Lei's escape, feel as if nothing had happened. Just a few days ago, they were still engaged in a fierce battle with the Buli people, but now they were busy guiding visitors to the martial arts ceremony and assisting in directing traffic on the Star Chariot.

The incident of blocking the Star Chariot had no effect on Wang Xuanqiao and others. They had already obtained special permission from the Tianbo Division, which meant that Bianca's somersault cloud could fly directly inside the fairy boat.

Upon hearing about the availability of a convenient means of transportation, even the train crew rushed to take advantage. Crowding aboard the cloud summoned by Bianca, they soared over the blocked Starship and rushed aboard the Jingfeng ship.

Now, it’s time to register for the competition!

When it comes to genes, let's put Ruan Mei.jpg

Volume 293: : The Starry Sky Martial Arts Ceremony Begins!

To participate in the excitement of the Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony, Kiana changed into her usual outfit. Although her signature double braids were gone, she still wore a ponytail, but the white battle uniform and orange jacket alone were enough to make her recognizable.

Even the weapon was specially replaced with a baseball bat. If Raiden Mei or Bronya were here, they would definitely feel as if they were seeing a photo in time.

Perhaps Kiana didn't wear her hair in pigtails because she wanted to differentiate herself from her past self. Of course, it's more likely that she woke up late and didn't have time to fix her hair in the rush to get out.

At least, Wang Xuanqiao felt that this was the truth. After all, if someone accepted themselves, why would they need to distinguish themselves from their past selves? She was who she was then, she is who she is now, and she will remain who she will be in the future.

Bianca, who partnered with Kiana, was wearing the clothes she usually wore for exercise. She did not hold any weapons and showed a very pure sports style. She was like a morning jogging girl you met on the street. It was impossible to tell that she was here to participate in the competition.

Everyone boarded the Jingfeng ship together, but it seemed they were about to separate. Dan Heng had no plans to compete, but was just there to watch the excitement, so he headed towards the spectator seats. San Yueqi, having been specially invited, went directly to the contestant lounge with Li Suchang.

Kiana and Bianca, who had registered, needed to go to the registration location for the martial arts ceremony to register on site. For a while, Wang Xuanqiao and Xing were left there with nothing to do.

Wang Xuanqiao originally wanted to go with the two sisters, but Xing pulled him aside, insisting that she needed a companion to explore the new map, and begged Wang Xuanqiao to run the map with her.

"Please open the map with me! I can't do anything!" Xing said.

"Why do you still say you are addicted? And you are wrong. What you said is that you won't do anything." Wang Xuanqiao couldn't just give up in public, so he could only let her stay.

Kiana wanted to say something, but when she thought of Xing's style of doing things, she suddenly felt that what she was about to say might be a bit redundant, so she swallowed it back into her stomach.

The first three groups each went in one direction, and Xing took the lead in the fourth direction, just like real-time strategy game players exploring the fog of war.

However, apart from private places like the players' lounge, there was really no place on this Jingfeng ship that they could not go.

Wang Xuanqiao followed behind Xing, watching her looking around as she walked, very purposefully. For a moment, he couldn't help but wonder if there really was a treasure chest on the Jingfeng ship like in the game?

That's strange. If there really is a treasure chest, can it be Xing's turn to open it? It can't be a gift from pioneering.

"What are you looking for?" Wang Xuanqiao asked her directly.

"It's garbage." Xing replied as if it was a matter of course.

Wang Xuanqiao:?

Never mind. If it's a star, it makes sense. Wang Xuanqiao sighed.

"Manager, don't underestimate the process of finding trash," Xing said seriously. "You know, trash is the mirror that reflects the truest appearance of a place. As long as you search through all the trash in a place, you can thoroughly understand the true nature of that place."

Wang Xuanqiao couldn't help but gave her a cold look.

"If I remember correctly, this sentence should not have been rubbish originally." Wang Xuanqiao complained.

"How is that possible! I copied this sentence from the Internet without any signature. How did you know it, store manager?" Xing looked at him in shock.

"Now I know." Wang Xuanqiao raised his eyes and pretended to look at the sky.

"So you were trying to trick me, Manager." Xing smiled awkwardly and shook her head. "But picking up trash does have its meaning. At the very least, it can make a place cleaner, and noble morals will praise me for it!"

Don't even mention that thing, you can buy it on the Jingfeng ship with money. Wang Xuanqiao couldn't bring himself to say it, so he could only give a dry laugh.

"Then again, you haven't been picking up trash everywhere since the Black Tower Space Station, have you?"

Since he had nothing else to do anyway, Wang Xuanqiao simply started a conversation with Xing about trash collection. If the game's description of the pioneers in this way had initially seemed like a joke, it gradually became less and less like a joke, rather like a pretext for exploiting the issue.

Just ask me directly what's going on.

"When we were at the Black Tower Space Station? I didn't do anything like that back then. I couldn't remember what happened before that, so I was quite serious at the time." Xing recalled the time when he had an encounter with the train and talked about old things.

"You may not believe this, Manager. After I took the train to Belloberg, I saw that gray trash can on the street in Winter City. I don't know why I felt a sense of familiarity in my heart, and I couldn't help but want to open it and take a look."

"At the time, I thought, since my life before this was a blank, I had to follow this rare impulse that came straight from my heart. Maybe this could be the clue that would lead me back to my past? It's just a matter of lifting a trash can lid. I don't have anything to lose."

Hearing Xing's description, Wang Xuanqiao nodded gently. This reason made sense. If someone woke up to find their life was blank, it was impossible not to want to explore what happened in their past.

An impulse that comes from the heart is undoubtedly an anchor for exploration.

Moreover, according to the research and speculation of railway scientists, the image of the trash can is likely a metaphor for the life-support cabin, referring directly to someone.

But Firefly has been on the train for so long, and Xing hasn't reacted at all. I'm afraid the trash can will really replace the original pictographic object...

"Besides, picking up trash is pretty good. Every now and then I'll come across something that requires the Galaxy Batman to appear. Sometimes I can't help but think that trash must be the guidance given to me by the path of pioneering!"

Xing started talking nonsense seriously again.

"Perhaps it's not the path of development, but the path of cleansing." Wang Xuanqiao could only grumble, "Sweeping away the evil that's happening is also a form of cleansing, wouldn't you say?"

"Well said! I'll tell her that next time March asks."

"Hey! Copy it in front of me!"

The two of them chatted as they walked, and the topic changed as quickly as a meteor and a banana, but there really wasn't a single piece of garbage to be found on the Jingfeng ship. It seemed that the cleaning workers on the Xianzhou were very helpful and didn't give anyone a chance to find fault.

However, perhaps because of the mention of Beloberg’s relationship, Wang Xuanqiao and Xing actually met someone from Beloberg as they walked.

It was none other than the protagonist of the Starry Sky Martial Arts Ceremony in the game—Luca the Iron-Armed from the Lower City of Beloberg.

This surprised Wang Xuanqiao a little. Logically speaking, Xinghe and he had taken a completely different route from the original plot, but he still met this young man who represented civilization and was the first to go to the stars.

Destiny is not a machine that runs along a predetermined path. It is just a hope, but it can be good or bad.

At that moment, Wang Xuanqiao recalled the fate the god had spoken of. He didn't doubt the other "fate" Ah Ha had loudly mocked, because as long as he stood there, that thing would never dare to reach out.

But running into Luca by chance was definitely a coincidence. People can decide who they meet, but they can't decide who will meet them.

Meeting an old friend in a foreign land was like a soothing medicine for Luca, who was so nervous that his stomach was cramping.

"What a coincidence, Sister Xing! You are also here... Luofu?" Luca raised his hand and greeted Xing, then turned his gaze to Wang Xuanqiao who was standing next to Xing and greeted him as well.

"Hello, my name is Luca, from Beloberg."

After a brief exchange of acquaintances, Xing took the opportunity to ask Luca why he was on the Luofu Immortal Boat. This question naturally opened up Luca's conversation.

Wang Xuanqiao knew the whole story, but hearing the person involved tell it again was actually quite interesting. After all, in the game, you can directly see what happened, while Luca in front of him could only narrate it himself.

Simply put, Beloberg was once closed off due to a cold snap triggered by the star core. Later, the Star Train arrived and resolved the calamity, allowing Beloberg to reopen. Recently, after repairing the intergalactic communication base station, Beloberg received an invitation to the Starry Sky Martial Arts Ceremony from the Luofu Immortal Ship.

Bronya Rand, the Great Guardian of Beloberg, took advantage of this invitation to start a selection within Beloberg, preparing to select a warrior who can represent Beloberg to participate in the Luofu Immortal Boat ceremony.

And Luca is the warrior selected by Beloberg.

However, participating in this martial arts ceremony was not a pure fighting competition. Luca was on a mission to promote Beloberg to the stars. Before coming to Rofu, he even owed a victory to the champion of the then selection competition, Jeppard.

Being in an unfamiliar place and carrying tremendous pressure on his heart, it is normal that Luca cannot adjust in a short period of time.

After learning about Luca's question, Xing turned around, looked at Wang Xuanqiao with a smug look on his face, and said, "Look, Manager. I said that picking up trash must be the guidance given to me by the Way of Pioneering!"

Are you still thinking about this? Wang Xuanqiao could only smile helplessly and shook his head.

"So what are you going to do?" he asked Xingdao, but he didn't have the necessary conditions to become Luka's coach yet.

"Of course, a bottle of soda soy milk first!" Xing was about to take it out, but Wang Xuanqiao was quick to stop her greedy behavior.

Are you kidding! Luka is already stressed out. If he drinks another sip of soda, he might not even have the chance to play.

"Ahem." Seeing that his attempt to get rid of the soda bean juice had failed, Xing had no choice but to clear his throat and get back to the point. "Luka is just not confident right now, so why not just win a game first?"

You’re absolutely right. As long as you keep winning, you won’t lose, and you’ll naturally regain your confidence... Bullshit!

As long as people keep living, they won’t die, right?

"Anyway! Let's go see who Luka's opponent will be in the first game!" Xing once again took the lead and started the charge.

——The author has something to say——

As for why the Trail Blazers are obsessed with trash cans, judging from the current copywriting, we can only say that it is really out of control.

The recent renovation event also mentioned that the pioneers actually brought garbage onto the train and stored it. Although it is not clear how the garbage was finally disposed of, such as Pam sweeping it up or throwing it into the synthesis machine, the pioneers picked up the garbage and put it on the train.

At the time of the 2.0 plot, many people have researched that the trash can might be a metaphor for Firefly or Sam, for example, the round body of the trash can resembles a life support pod, or the silver-gray iron shell resembles the Firefly mecha, etc. But to be honest, it feels like the trash can's attraction to the pioneers is getting more and more outrageous now.

Who knows what big things the text might be hiding, such as the plot of the recent Banana Banana event, or settings like meme infection, right?

Also, don't worry about this book having Xing picking up some disgusting trash or something confusing. As far as I've written, although Xing has a bit of a craving for trash, just like the original character, he only picks up dry trash like empty bottles and packaging bags, which doesn't affect his personal hygiene.

Volume 294: : The Lower Nine Classes Go First

In the players' lounge, there's a large screen for players to rest and read match information. While it looks more like a blackboard, that's the style of Xianzhou Technology, a simple exterior that showcases advanced functionality.

As expected, Luca's first-round opponent was the Guibao Fan Club led by Xianzhou Suchang. It was a shame that Sanyueqi didn't have to play in this qualifying match, otherwise we might have had the chance to see Li Suchang lead Sanyueqi against Xianzhou Suchang.

"So you're going to fight Shang Shang? That should be pretty promising, right?" Xing touched his chin and said to Luca, "How about I tell you her weakness?"

"Isn't this inappropriate, Sister Xing?" Luca waved his hands quickly.

"It's okay. She wants to bring a bunch of people to beat you up, so it's reasonable for you to ask about her weakness." Wang Xuanqiao gave Luca a thumbs up.

"Ah, ah?" Luca didn't react for a moment, and the camera lady next to him, Ka Meili, explained to him that the Xingtian Martial Arts Ceremony allows teams to participate, and the schedule does not deliberately distinguish between team and individual competitions. Who will compete depends entirely on the luck of the draw.

At this time, Wang Xuanqiao also received a message from Kiana. She and Bianca had completed the competition confirmation and would soon enter the knockout round schedule. However, the underlying meaning of this message was still telling him to prepare to watch the competition.

Wang Xuanqiao said hello to everyone and left to find Kiana and the others.

This little episode did not disrupt anyone's plan. Xing, adhering to the principle of seeing the best possible outcome, simply took Luca to the outside of the player's lounge to try his luck and see if he could run into Su Shang and get some information in advance.

As the saying goes, "enemies often cross paths," and they actually ran into each other right outside the rest area. Su Shang was browsing the bulletin board with her fan club team when Xing and Luca came out and bumped into them.

"What a coincidence, family, you came to watch my game?" Su Shang smiled brightly when she saw Xing coming over.

"I'm here to help Luca get some information." Xing said bluntly.

Su Shang immediately burst into a question mark, and this sentence almost burned her CPU.

"Simply put, your friend is now our enemy," the Cloud Rider beside Su Chang reminded him, "She's trying to gather our intelligence."

"But she didn't hide it at all?" Su Shang touched her head and after a moment, she showed a look of sudden realization, "Oh! I understand."

What do you understand?

"You must be thinking that, given our relationship, although I can't tell you any information, I have to teach you a few tricks for the sake of our sisterhood." Su Shang put her hands on her hips and acted as if she saw through everything.

"That's right, sister." Xing agreed deeply and followed Su Shang's words and said, "Then teach me a few tricks."

"No problem! But I don't see you on the list of contestants. You should be a coach like me. Stand closer when we go on stage to compete. I'll explain it to you in conjunction with the competition."

"No, Su Shang, aren't you just supporting our opponent?" Another member of the Yunqi team couldn't help but complain.

"Oh! They say friendship comes first and competition comes second. Besides, there is only one person on the opposite side, and we have more people. The Cloud Cavalry knows how to form a formation to fight the enemy. It's not good to bully them like this, right?" Su Shang retorted.

"No matter what, if we lose, it's yours." The Yunqi team members chose to pass the blame.

Elsewhere, Wang Xuanqiao followed the address sent by Qiyana to find the two sisters warming up in the players' lounge. According to the jade signs displayed inside, the two members of the team named Zongheng Xinghai Yuyumao were about to face an opponent named Ruojin. Wang Xuanqiao glanced at them and remembered the low-class players from the storyline.

The Mingming Tianwu Yanyidian is a place where strength speaks louder than words, but this guy only dares to use tricks such as spreading rumors, slandering, and making groundless accusations to attack his opponent, in order to interfere with his opponent's mind to the greatest extent and win for himself.
