Collapse Iron Live Broadcast Connects All Worlds, Scares Away Wuzhan at the Beginning

Celie rested her chin on one hand and said calmly, "Curses can be countered with reversal magic, and mental magic can be completely blocked if one has high mental resistance. But the power of fate, emanating from the Star Gods, can directly distort certain concepts—this is beyond the reach of magic, and it presents an unsolvable problem."

"Although a first-level magician is supposed to transform the 'impossible' into the 'possible'...but powers from outer space are not within that scope. Of course, if one day you embark on a corresponding [Destiny], perhaps you can try to offer a different solution."

“‘When the time comes, verify your findings with me. If we both agree, or if you can bring me more…’ Sunday raised his voice joyfully, ‘then He will be able to truly show you His love and truth.’”

"...You shameless hypocrite! You confiscated everything I had, and you still want me to tell you the truth? That's unfair. In this money-grubbing amusement park of yours, money gets you nowhere." Gold Sand said bitterly, gritting his teeth.

"This should be a personal act of your own, without the family's help. Your duffel bag is there, lighten it up, and I believe you can exchange this bag of cheap jewels for everything. This is what gamblers do best, isn't it?"

"Sunday glanced at the duffel bag at his feet."

"Go ahead, Mr. Gold Dust. You are 'free.' I will be waiting here to announce the good news."

"Throughout the conversation, a dark-colored crow stood high above, quietly observing everything that happened in the room."

"Shajin walked to the door with his duffel bag. Before leaving, he glanced back at the man behind him. "So, this meeting wasn't an interrogation, but it wasn't a negotiation either... It was a complete lynching, correct?"

Sunday still laughed and retorted, "How could that be? Mr. Gold Dust, I really just want to know what a 'passerby' who 'accidentally' appeared at her murder scene could 'discover'...that's all."

"By the way, before you leave, I have a rather personal question."

Shajin glared at him angrily: "What's wrong?"

""Do you...really want to destroy this world with your own hands?""

-

Fate.

"I don't know if he wants to destroy the world, but right now he should really want to destroy you... the kid with two wings on his head."

Lancer crossed his arms and uttered an unpleasant "tsk." Normally, he looked down on such despicable tactics, but now that they were being used by an even more sinister kid, he was extremely upset and wanted to rush in and give him a good beating.

"A bag of jewels... what can you do with it? He's not really planning to take over the entire Pinocchio with these, is he?"

Toosaka Rin couldn't help but feel her scalp tingling. This mission was probably even more difficult than winning the Holy Grail War single-handedly with bare hands? It was simply impossible! Seventeen system hours! At least give her four or five days, right?

"It's hard to say." Acher crossed his arms and said calmly, "Don't forget who he is. He still has the indelible code of a Tsyganian slave on his neck. He was able to rise from a slave to a company executive... Just guess how many people he has won over along the way?"

"I know he's powerful... but no matter how powerful he is, he's still just a human. Facing the unreasonable power of Harmony, what good is all that money?"

Toosaka Rin sighed softly and said, "Some people win their whole lives, but lose everything in one failure. Is this kind of thing rare? What if luck is not on his side this time?"

Chapter 386 Pinocchio (Sixty-five)

"The desolate Gobi Desert stretched out in the twilight. The scorching wind blew up fine sand, which slammed against the shaky, crude tents. A blonde woman stumbled out of the tent, trembling and clutching the boy's shoulders tightly."

"Kakavasya, where have you been...are you hurt!?"

"The boy's dusty fingers slowly pulled out a crystal necklace from his pocket."

"I got it back... sis."

The woman asked in disbelief, "You went to find them...? It's too dangerous! This is just a necklace, not edible, and it's not water. We can survive without it." The woman's voice trembled, almost choking with sobs, "But I can't live without you, brother... Don't go near those Kartikas again, okay?"

"Sister, don't be afraid. The Kartikas are stupid, but I'm smart. If I play games with them, I'll definitely win."

"Win? What happened? Tell me."

"The boy said in a childish, immature voice, 'I made a bet with them: which of the two desert birds and I would die first? I won.'" At this point, the boy puffed out his skinny chest with a hint of pride. "They suspected I was cheating, but I wasn't... I won fair and square."

-

Kobayashi's Dragon Maid.

"Don't talk about such a horrible thing in such a light tone!"

Thor covered his eyes, unable to bear to watch any longer.

She was so young, yet she was already gambling with her life. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have found it hard to imagine this was the childhood of a human child. It was like dancing on the edge of a knife!

"He has been gambling with the Kartika people since he was a child. It's a miracle that he can still live to this age and even become a company executive..." Xiaolin just found it incredible. This means that in the gambling game between him and the group of executioners, Sha Jin has never lost... not even once.

Losing means death.

This can no longer be explained simply by good luck, it is as if he has received a kiss from God.

"I want this kind of good luck too..." Thor lay on Xiaolin's thighs and began to make wishes.

"Maybe luck does play a big role in his success. But there is one thing I admire most about him. Do you know what it is?" Kobayashi suddenly asked while fiddling with Thor's hair on his forehead.

"Huh? What is it?"

"...He dares to gamble," Xiaolin said. "No matter how much he has or how high his status is, he dares to bet without hesitation. Not only that, he can even attract his colleagues to join him in this life-threatening gamble."

"In this game that belongs only to the brave, he is definitely the bravest one."

-

"I know you can win... You've always been a lucky child, your luck is a gift from the Earth Mother... But that's no reason for you to confront the Kartikas head-on. They're bloodthirsty, cruel, and insatiable—don't forget mom and dad..."

"Her voice was choked in her throat as she tried to suppress the warmth that suddenly welled up in her eyes. She hugged the boy tightly in her arms, wishing she could squeeze all the love and care she had given him over the years into this momentary embrace."

"It's just a necklace... but Kakavasa, you are the last of my family."

Feeling his collar wet with tears, the boy panicked, "Sister, I'm sorry... I thought you'd be happy. Because this is the necklace Mom left for you..."

The woman shook her head gently. "It is important, but more important is you, my beloved brother... I won't blame you, but you must remember what Mother said... Suffering and poverty are tests from the Earth Mother, but She also grants us opportunities. That is your luck, Kakavasya. Your good fortune is ours... and the most precious treasure of all the Ewekin people."

"You are a child blessed by the Earth Mother, and you can lead the clan to happiness. So, always remember to protect yourself, and never resent pain and poverty... okay?"

"The little boy doesn't quite understand."

"But the woman just gently rubbed his head and said, 'Be obedient and swear to the Mother Goddess.'"

"...Okay. I swear to the Mother Goddess that I will forever protect this treasure... But, sister... If the Three-Eyed Mother Goddess is truly watching us... Then why didn't the Mother Goddess protect Dad when he was swept away by the quicksand? He went to the Kartikas to prepare an offering for her..."

“When Mom slowly grew cold in our arms, where was the Mother Goddess?… Until the moment Mom closed her eyes, she was still begging for her forgiveness…”

"Sister, everyone says I'm smart, but I don't understand... If every rain is the Mother Goddess's forgiveness and gift..."

"Then how many mistakes did we make... to be born into this world only to die...?"

-

MyGO.

"Is this Mr. Gold Dust's childhood? His sister is his only family! The Kartikas won't even let go of his only sister?"

"Woooooooooooo..."

On the first floor of RiNG, a pink-haired dragon was already slumped over the dining table, sobbing uncontrollably. The entire restaurant was filled with her sobs. Within four or five minutes, the trash can at her feet had been completely filled with napkins used to wipe away her tears and snot.

Su Shi sighed softly. She, who was always elegant and calm in front of others, couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat. "Indeed... When I first saw him in the sky dome, I thought he was a playboy. I didn't expect him to be... Sigh."

They all knew what happened next. After that, Shajin's clan suffered a brutal massacre, and he was most likely the only survivor among the Evikin people.

And his sister...

When people thought of this result, the atmosphere in the entire hall became extremely solemn.

"He is the only one who survived, so he must be very lonely." Gao Songdeng closed the notebook and murmured softly.

"Hey, Deng—" Riki opened his mouth to comfort Deng, but was interrupted by Aine's sudden movement. The pink-haired girl suddenly jumped up from the chair, and because of the large amplitude of the movement, her knee accidentally hit the corner of the chair, making a "bang" sound.

“Ah! It hurts, it hurts—!” Aine hopped and spun around on one foot. Tears were still lingering in the corners of her eyes, but she was already waving her arms with full energy. “But! Everyone, I just came up with a brilliant idea!”

"what?"

"Let's write a song for Mr. Gold Dust! Even though we can't get it to him through the skylight, we can sing it at our next live, how about that?"

Chapter 387 Pinocchio (Sixty-six)

Li Xi's brows knitted together immediately. "Huh? I still have three new songs to arrange, okay?" She scratched her hair irritably. "Are you trying to tire me to death?"

Deng gently tugged at the corner of Ain's clothes and whispered, "Lixi, it's been really hard lately..."

Seeing that the light was speaking for him, Li Xi's attitude softened immediately, and his voice unconsciously dropped an octave. "It's not that tiring, it's just... uh, the normal workload..."

Aiyin took the opportunity to rush over and put her arm around Rikki's shoulders: "Then Rikki will be in charge of composing the music~ Leave the lyrics to me!"

"You!?" Li Xi glanced at her with disdain. "The lyrics you wrote last time were like lines from an idol drama stitched together. Something like 'kissing the gears of fate before the meteor falls'... gave me goosebumps."

"That's too much! I'm just speaking my mind!" She turned and rushed towards the lamp. "Tomori, do you think my lyrics have improved?"

The lamp swayed from side to side as Aine shook it, but she nodded seriously. "...Aine's lyrics are very sunny... Let her try this time, shall we?"

Deng Du had already said so, and Li Xi finally gave in. "It's up to you...but the theme of Gold Dust needs to be clear. It should not only highlight his background and sense of fate, but also fit in with the style of our band."

Li Xi sighed helplessly: "...Really, if you don't write the lyrics well, you won't be able to pass my test."

"In the lobby of the Daydream Hotel, the front desk couldn't find any information about Firefly."

"…That's not surprising. I'd like to ask, what kind of traces do people usually leave behind when they dream?" Jizi asked.

"The front desk stated that the Dream Pool records physiological indicators and then passes them on to the family. All of these measures are designed to force awakenings in emergencies, all for the safety of the guests. Furthermore, the front desk's authority doesn't allow them to use this as a starting point for investigation."

"However, before leaving, Himeko still used her conversational skills to inquire about Miss Robin's situation. Seeing the confused expression on the receptionist's face, Himeko became even more convinced that the family had concealed Robin's death very well."

"As expected, no one knows about the robin, which isn't surprising." Jizi frowned. "But Miss Liuying is truly mysterious. The hotel system can't even find any information about her. Even if she's a stowaway... she should have a disguise after entering the country, right?"

"There are only two ways to sneak into dreams without anyone noticing. One is with the help of the Rememberers. They are so adept at memories that entering dreams is easy. The other is Silver Wolf, one of the Star Core Hunters. She can use unconventional means to break the blockade of the Dream Hotel. Jizi also deduced that the Hunters must be behind the Firefly incident."

Maze rice.

"The Star Core Hunter is too evil, isn't he? He even wants to take advantage of a little girl like Liuying."

The fire crackled. Malushel scooped slime from a bowl with a spoon and said unhappily, "The Star Core Hunters are a dangerous bunch...Hasn't Liuying ever seen their wanted posters before? How dare she be so bold as to cooperate with them...Alas, she's so young."

"That's not the point—" Zilchak drank the slime in his bowl in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said, "The point is the Star Core Hunter's goal. Star Core Hunters have always targeted star cores, and this trip to Pinocchio is definitely no exception."

"...In other words, Pinocchio actually hides a star core?"

Zilchak sighed helplessly. "Malushier, you haven't forgotten what you said on Sunday, have you? If Pinocchio doesn't have a star core, how could he have the research data he promised Professor Latio? Furthermore, if there's no star core, I can't imagine any reason for the Star Core Hunters to be dispatched."

"And do you remember Liuying's purpose in coming to Pinocchio? She also wanted to pursue the [Watchmaker's Legacy]. If the Star Core Hunters share her goal, can we conclude that the so-called legacy... is actually a star core?"

"While we were discussing this, we suddenly heard a commotion from the residents nearby. Several heavily armed company personnel arrived, preparing to conduct an armed evacuation."

“Armed evacuation? Boss, are you drunk…”

"A soldier nearby trembled and said he had already given his entire year-end bonus to Beloberg. If he continued, he might be issued a major disciplinary notice."

"Fortunately, Topa stepped in just in time and gave them a beating, dragging the disgraceful team leader back to the guest room."

"Everyone on the train crew was delighted to see Topa. Finally, someone familiar from the company has arrived."

"Long time no see, everyone on the Star Train. I've heard all about you from Gold Sand... Hmm?" Topa's earpiece seemed to receive a message. She immediately put on a more serious expression and instructed the people inside: "...It's okay, just do as they ask, and try to avoid conflict with the family... Report to me before taking any action. Okay."

"After that, Topa sighed deeply. "Alas... As you can see, the company isn't very popular in Pinocchio. The family's courtesy is merely superficial. What was once a frontier prison is now shackled to the company's employees."

Fullmetal Alchemist.

"Ahhh, it's Miss Topper—!"

"Miss Toppa, I'm going to report you. It's all that Shajin kid's fault. He betrayed your trust and ruined your bright future!"

"Idiot, who are you reporting to through a curtain? Can they hear you?"

"..."

The restaurant was filled with sounds like this, which made Edward laugh.

Indeed, the moment he saw Miss Toppa, he felt like he had met an old friend in a foreign land, and even his mood, which had been a little bad because it was Sunday, recovered a lot.

"Brother, why are you laughing?"

Alphonse looked at him puzzledly.

Edward forked a steak into his mouth, his voice unclear. "...Nothing. I was just imagining what Miss Topal would look like if she knew she had lost her cornerstone along with the aventurine."
