Inside the Echo Sons' workshop, the hum of gears and steam echoed. Sinonin was crouched beneath the axle of a wheelbarrow, expertly disassembling it.
——Half an hour ago, Mavica drove back the wheelbarrow with the front part of the vehicle badly smashed. The billowing smoke even made Sinoning suspect that it would explode at any time. Although the flames might not hurt the Lord God of Fire, the same could not be said for her.
"Ma, Vi, Ka--!!"
The tighter she tightened the screws, the more furious she became. Her teeth clenched and clicked. "Why is it that Ren Neng can drive the car smoothly and well without sleeping for 20 hours, but you can crash the car like this after just a few hours of sleep?"
"Me? Haha... I happened to encounter a volcanic eruption when I was passing through the Land of Volu." Mavica blinked with an innocent expression, "You know, there are huge chunks of volcanic rocks rolling down there at any time--"
"So you just ran right into it? You can't die like Blade, right?"
Mavica laughed heartily and gently patted the smoking front of the wheelbarrow. "Don't you want to give it a try? I've never tried this before."
"Next time if you do something risky like this, don't drive your scooter to my place!!"
Sinonn took a deep breath and resisted the urge to throw the wrench. But just as she was busy replacing the new part, Mavica poked her shoulder gently again.
"What?" She glared at him unhappily.
"Xinoning, look at the sky." Mavica pointed at the fireflies and blades flying across the sky.
"dont see."
She could hear the abacus beads.
"Hmm, can you help me change the design of my wheelbarrow? Add two more wheels and transform it into the one Blade is driving now?"
Mavica, with an eager expression on her face, completely oblivious to the gradually distorted features of the master blacksmith in front of her, chattered on, "Isn't it cool? And it can even carry one person! If you want to go for a ride, I'll give you a ride. Of course, the same rules apply, Mora, you can make any request, and I'll have it delivered to your workshop the next day."
"Add... two wheels?" Sinonen's voice rose dangerously. "How simple... You thought the modification was as easy as your request, didn't you?"
"Uh……"
Kagami finally realized that the atmosphere was not right, but it was too late——
"Mavica! Get out of here! Drive your scooter! Now! Right now!"
"Eh?! Wait! Sinonin! I can still--"
"boom!"
The workshop door slammed shut in front of Mavica, almost hitting her tall nose. She touched her nose in frustration and turned to look at her beloved, smoking wheelbarrow.
"This is troublesome...what should I do?"
-
"The infiltration is over. You can activate SAM anytime."
Liuying shook her head slightly. "There's still some time until the next scene in the script. Let me stay a little longer, using this body."
"Then there was a long silence. The two of them stopped talking about anything else, as if they were used to this kind of silence. It wasn't until a long time later that the girl's sigh was heard again in the car:"
“What a long tunnel! I didn’t realize it was this long when I started.”
"In half a system hour, it will lead us to Kafka, and then the destruction of the Yepera Brotherhood."
"Are these also scripts?" Liuying asked.
"It's in your script, too."
“Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.”
"Even if you choose to ignore it, their fate won't change." Ren said calmly, "I told you, this is a bad habit."
"What about you? Can you get the [Death] you want this time?"
Blade's tone was filled with regret. "As always, a blank. It's not on this planet. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
"Liuying explained seriously, "Because I'm driving a car while fatigued... I hope it arrives safely."
“…”
Blade's silence was deafening. After a long pause, he spoke helplessly, "This car is on autopilot. I'll just put my hands on the steering wheel, okay?"
-
fate.
"I have a strong desire to survive..."
"Hahahaha Firefly is so cute!!"
After sending Gilgamesh away, Toosaka Rin's laughter became noticeably more unbridled.
Her first impression of Liuying was that she was a girl like Sakura, a flower in the morning mist, perfectly suited to being a high school girl. Her second impression was that she was a Berserker, a towering, destructive mecha. She hadn't expected to form a third impression today... the girl had a surprisingly good sense of humor.
Unconsciously, the "cold" impression that belonged to Grammer on her was weakened a lot. The girl seemed to be changing from a "weapon" to an ordinary person who could gradually make jokes.
"The person in the driver's seat: overly fatigued, possessed by a demonic spirit, and seriously suicidal. And she's sitting in the passenger seat." Lancer leaned lazily on the table. "If Blade could get the death he wanted in Yepera, he'd probably just crash into it."
"Speaking of which, this is actually the memory of the Yepera Brotherhood before its destruction... But why did the Star Core Hunters target the Brotherhood? Aren't they going to destroy the Eternal Flame Residence as well?" Saber was a little curious. After all, they were all forces of [destruction], so it didn't matter if these guys died.
"The Underworld Lord should still have some strength." Shirou returned with a few bowls of rice soaked in tea and placed them in front of everyone. "Compared to the Underworld Lord, who has many offspring and is even harder to kill, it would be easier to destroy the brothers, right?"
-
Liuying couldn't help but smile: "I'm just kidding."
“…Elliot always said there’s only one fate, and no one can escape it. He can see the future, and we…we also know our own [predetermined endings]. But until that moment arrives, we can still choose what to do for ourselves…we all have that right, right?”
Blade nodded. "After today, Yepera's name will vanish from galactic history, and the Everfire Residence will take its place. In the near future, you'll receive an invitation... that will be your next stop."
"Dreamland, Pinocchio."
"May you find the answers you seek there... or perhaps, relief."
-
Harry Potter.
"Everything was calculated by Elio."
Hermione murmured, unconsciously twirling a strand of hair between her fingers. "It's like playing wizard chess. He's already calculated the next twenty moves."
"No, to be more precise, he saw the only path to victory in the God War. There might be more than twenty steps, perhaps two thousand... but he just needs to advance steadily."
Chapter 432 2.2 Master Pinocchio (113)
Harry adjusted his glasses and asked curiously, "...Without that invitation, Huang Quan wouldn't have arrived, the Gold Dust would have failed, and everything would have stagnated. But the strange thing is, Elio did so much. Could it be because Pinocchio has an ally like Luofu Xianzhou worth winning over?"
"Of course, isn't that Huang Quan?" Ron interjected.
"I can't say she isn't, but as the dreamer said... Miss Huang Quan is a self-destructor, just like the legion leader we encountered during the locust plague. Her fate... may be annihilation. Besides, someone like Miss Huang Quan, who would take those around her with her into extinction, is unlikely to be traveling with the train. I'm not sure if I'll ever run into her again."
"Could it be the company? In this matter, the Strategic Investment Department and the train crew are in the same boat."
"That's just the Strategic Investment Department, right? Not to mention the questionable attitude of the department head, Diamond, there are so many other departments in the company. And there are so many factions within the company, we're not even united." Hermione curled her lips and wrapped the blanket around her tighter. "Instead of targeting the Strategic Investment Department, it's better to target the company's board of directors."
"The board of directors? They're higher up than the Diamond Envoy, right? They seem like a bunch of old monsters..."
-
"When Xing woke up again, she saw Mr. Walter standing in front of them."
"Mr. Walter, are you here too?"
"Liuying looked at Xing: "[Close your eyes]... This is the answer. Isn't it incredible? The monster we always thought of as [Death] is actually the guardian of the Exiled Land. It follows a certain pattern, abducting those in their dreams and bringing them here."
"Walter: "Our previous puzzlement over the question of whether true death exists in dreams now appears to be a complete mental trap set by the mastermind to conceal the truth behind the disappearances and... this fortress called [Liumeng Jiao]."
"Considering that every appearance of the meme is related to the Watchmaker, Walter also hopes to gain some inspiration here on the issues that are troubling them."
"There's no family-like management on Liumeng Reef, so people live a very unorganized life. But through bits and pieces of conversation, Liuying still heard a familiar name... Gallagher."
Walter frowned slightly. "It's this man again. He always appears at every critical point at just the right time... This saves us the trouble of looking for him."
"Jizi and Sanyueqi have already left, but before they set off, Xing was still worried about the impact of Huangquan's sword."
"No wonder Miss Huang Quan remains so reluctant to draw her sword... It's hard to imagine that such terrifying power resides within that plain sheath. If the power of the gold dust weren't derived from [Preservation], the entire dreamland would be affected."

Re: Life in a Different World from Zero
"Why don't you say thank you to the gold dust?"
"Huh? 486, whose side are you on? They can't hear us, right?"
Betty hummed softly, then lowered her head to feed Parker. She carefully held the elf in her arms and fed it cream soup with a spoon.
"I didn't expect that guy to choose 'protection' in the end... It seems that [Nothingness] only affected us for a dozen seconds, and he also contributed to this."
Parker, satisfied with his drink, burped, flew over to Betty's shoulder, and stretched out. "When he first spoke to Topa on the phone, I thought he was a conspirator who had given up his bottom line. I didn't expect his bottom line to be higher than anyone else's."
"So he's worthy of the name of 'Protector.'" Emilia clasped her hands in her lap, her cyan eyes reflecting the dark fortress against the backdrop of the sky. "I still hope we can find him here quickly. This place is truly... unsettling."
The sky of Liumeng Reef seemed to be splashed with a layer of turbid mortar, forever frozen in the gloomy moment when it was about to rain but had not yet rained. It was somewhat similar to the original dreamland where the star was originally located.
Emilia wouldn't find it strange if a memory meme popped out from any corner.
"If what Mr. Walter said is true, then all the residents of this fortress were killed by the memory domain meme and brought here?" 486 narrowed his eyes. He had already seen the drunkard vomiting in the corner of the fortress, combined with the garbage bags piled up everywhere... Even if he wasn't there in person, 486 couldn't help but pinch his nose and lean back.
"Oh~ah~" Roswaal said, holding the black tea Ram had brewed, narrowing his heterochromatic eyes. "Isn't this~the~most interesting~situation?"
"Nei~~" His ending tone was strangely elongated, just like the singing in a musical: "If the murdered person will come here~, then the honorable Mr. Sunday and Miss Mockingbird are here too? Looking forward to their meeting, ah ha~ what a wonderful drama~"
"Look, look, look, seeing this dirty and backward dream, I wonder what the Oak family master would think."
-
"As we journeyed deeper into Dream Reef, we encountered a path filled with lost wanderers. After taking the elevator, the three of us quickly arrived at the center of the fortress."
"It's unbelievable that, beyond the family's sight... in this dream, there exists a settlement of this magnitude." Walter looked around. The Clock Boy billboard in the distance was dim, as if it hadn't been cared for in a long time. "The atmosphere of this fortress... is so different from my beautiful dream."
"I was also surprised when I first saw it. The sky here is like... a reflection of the Twelve Dreams. Even stranger, this place is divided into trading areas and residential areas. Although simple, it is very complete. It seems that a considerable number of people live here."
"Considering that the Star Train requires some space for internal discussions, Liuying will separate from the two and go look for Gallagher alone."
"Although Xing was a little worried, she still let her move first under Walter's persuasion. Not only did the two of them need to be observed, but he also wanted to find someone to talk to."
He turned around and glanced at Misha, who was not far away: "Look, it's over there..."
"Not far away, Misha is with the smiling Clock Boy."
"The doorman at the Daydream Hotel, how could he be here, so soon after Miss Huang Quan's dream ended? Just to be on the safe side, I'd better confirm it."
Misha greeted the two warmly, and Walter politely responded. However, upon seeing the Clock Kid at his feet, he paused. "...Huh? Who's that person next to you..."
"Tick-tock! Old friends and new friends, high five!"
Chapter 433 2.2 Master Pinocchio (114)
Marvel Universe.
"Wow! He can actually see Clock Kid!" Rocket Raccoon was so shocked that he almost jumped up from his seat in the cockpit. "Walter is even more childish than that girl named Firefly! I can't believe it. Does he like cartoons or something like that?"
"When it comes to childlike innocence, how can Liuying compare to her? I don't know if she has childlike innocence, but she definitely has murderous intent—it all depends on who's standing across from her." Peter Quill took off the headphones that were playing rock music. "When she transforms into Sam and holds the enemy's head, she can interrogate them. If they say they don't have childlike innocence, she can crush their head—I guarantee that she must be the girl with the most childlike innocence in the universe."
"Okay, don't you find it strange? Xing can see Clock Kid, and it can be attributed to the influence of the star core, but why can Walter also see him?" Gamora folded her arms and frowned. "Perhaps there is something in common between the two of them."
"Are they all human?"
Gamora couldn't help but roll her eyes at Quill: "Did your brain get flushed down the toilet and turned into space junk? Isn't Firefly a human?"
"Strictly speaking—" Drax the Destroyer suddenly raised his head, "Is she a genetic human? Perhaps only half human?"
"Strictly speaking, stars don't count. How could a human be gazed upon by several star gods at once? How could a star core be stuffed in their chest?" Gamora corrected sternly. "My opinion is: besides Misha, perhaps only the people on the train crew could see it."
"You mean... Clock Kid is related to [Pioneering]?"
Gamora nodded. "Yes, of course it's easy to verify. Just bring Clock Kid to Himeko and the truth will be revealed. If we really judge based on childlike innocence, then March Seven should be the most childlike. She will definitely be able to see it."
-
Walter was stunned for a moment before slowly asking, "Are you... a memory domain meme?"
Misha quickly denied, "No. Clock Kid is my good friend, and we both have our home here. How did these two guests get here? Logically, this dreamland shouldn't be open to the public... Could it be [Mianmian]?"
“You said this is your home?”
