"He's coming!" Heita's voice suddenly rang out in disbelief. "No, it's not him... it's another Star God! It's—"
"The sound of the black tower gradually faded away, as if the entire world was moving away from me, and everything around me became so unreal."
"Suddenly, Xing felt a bright light appear before her eyes. After she struggled to open her eyes, she could barely see everything in front of her."
"It was a blurry figure, his entire body like a crystal sculpture, as if composed of countless mirror fragments. His features were repeatedly refracted by the prism, forming a mystery. All that could be seen was a six-row pearl crown on his head and an ice lotus crown behind his back. The moment he looked directly at him, countless memories emerged in Xing's mind."
-
Tanjiro stood in a snowy forest.
His dark hair fluttered in the cold wind, and the scar on his forehead turned slightly red from the cold. He covered his neck with a thick scarf, his clear eyes piercing the drifting snow as he gazed at the hazy torch in the distance.
The father in my memory had lost his frail form. He walked barefoot amidst the torches, his arms extended to his chin, his back bent, his steps bent. Nezuko was on his back, his mother gently stroking his head.
"Huh, is this... Mom?"
"I remember I was—"
Tanjiro always felt like he had forgotten something. He was covering his red, frozen fingers when suddenly he heard a rapid shout in his ears.
"Tanjiro! Tanjiro!"
As a result, the picture in front of him gradually became blurred and collapsed. Tanjiro only felt his head swinging from side to side like a swing. When he barely came to his senses, he saw his senior brother, Water Pillar Tomioka Giyu, shaking his shoulders.
"Tanjiro, wake up!"
Tanjiro patted his head and finally woke up from his memories. He looked around and found that the entire Demon Slayer Corps was in chaos.
"What's going on?" Tanjiro still didn't understand the situation.
Tomioka Giyu frowned and said, "The third Star God appeared. The moment He appeared, everyone who looked directly at Him fell into a brief memory. Fortunately, this situation only lasted for a short time and was not serious. Most people have recovered."
"I originally thought the appearance of a Star God wouldn't affect us, but it seems I was overthinking it. Some Star Gods carry special effects of their own, and the moment they appear, they inevitably affect others."
Butterfly said with lingering fear, "This is just a virtual star god that appeared in the simulated universe. It is a human creation. If the real star god appears..."
Upon hearing this, several pillars present gasped in unison.
"Hey, come to think of it, can this situation be considered a 'miracle' in some sense?" Sound Pillar Uzui Tengen smiled bitterly. It was not until this moment that he realized how big the gap was between the world they were in and the world in the light curtain.
"Of course." Ubuyashiki Kōya smiled faintly. "According to the intelligence down the mountain, the government in many areas has already planned to build temples for the Star God of Destruction, Nanook. Many people have also begun to change their beliefs and believe in the Star God."
"Destruction of faith? That guy doesn't look like a good god, so I don't believe it." Fushigawa Miyabi frowned.
"But it's still better than believing in some weird cult," Shinobu Kocho said calmly. "I heard that not long ago, a sect called the Eternal Paradise Sect publicly announced a change of faith. Over 200 members have since converted to the Star God of Destruction, Nanook. Such a large sect... overnight, only their founder remains."
Chapter 18 Pink-haired, academic master, housekeeper... Deputy Section Chief Ya, you are not a rich woman too, are you?
"Xing saw Kafka, her body being pulled and deformed, mingling with the umbrella in her hand, and turning into water drops that fell at her feet."
"She discovered she was the crying baby of Adrifen, embracing her still-uncut umbilical cord. She remembered a golden scar on her body, golden blood flowing on a dead planet. She discovered her skin was dark, her robes sweeping across the wasteland."
"Then, his voice suddenly came from a distant place—"
"The robe floats, envelops you, and you travel, revealing your black skin. You sneer and explore, threads swirling and overlapping, warp and weft weaving into the ocean. Words..." Each word he uttered connected to the next, like a whisper. Without waiting for Xing to reply, he suddenly vanished."
"Xing was holding his head when he suddenly heard Heita's excited voice: "Success! That's Fuli. He thought you were the deceased Achievers and took the initiative to speak to you - this is even better than I imagined! Fuli is very helpful to my research because he has everyone's memory and knows more than anyone else!"
The speaker may not have intended it, but the listener may have taken it to heart. Xitrali put down the wine glass in her hand, her eyes drooped slightly, and she pondered secretly.
Possessing the memories of everyone, could it be that this “everyone” includes all human beings in the entire universe?
This is also...
As the great shaman of Lord Yanmi, Sittrali has some understanding of the Ruling of Death. Even though this Ruling holds the power over death, its scope is limited to Teyvat.
Judging by the worldview in the light curtain, there must be many worlds similar to Teyvat in their universe, and the star god of memory, Fuli, is in charge of the memories of these countless worlds.
Compared to the power of the Demon God, there is a huge difference...
Xitrali secretly glanced at Mavica. Mavica, who was chatting and laughing just now, had a rare serious expression after witnessing the power of the Virtual Star God firsthand.
"Come out, Xing. I'm going to upgrade the [Simulated Universe], so you'll have to stay in there longer."
"As soon as Heita finished speaking, Xing felt a hook tug at her belly button. She somersaulted over and when she opened her eyes, she found herself in Heita's office."
Black Tower was still immersed in joy. While manipulating the dial of the simulated universe, he muttered, "I need to tell Stephen about this result right away... Oh, Xing, don't just stand there. Go in and have a look. See if you can have a word or two..."
"Heita's complete disregard for others made Xing slightly dissatisfied: "You should give me some respect."
"Indeed, you're right." Heita continued to adjust the machine without turning back, not at all angry at Xing's retort. He said politely, "I got carried away. Sorry, Xing, you did a great job! If it's convenient, please go in and test it again."
“I’ve upgraded the simulation now. It has more memory and a longer process. I guess the last game was pretty boring, so I’ll ask Stephen to add some more fun stuff.”
"Uh, the personality of this lady from Black Tower..." Philen hesitated to speak.
"People with this personality type are rare in real life, but quite common in certain research fields."
Fulilian recalled meeting the court magicians decades ago. They were all eccentrics, but their skills were truly profound. They had devoted their limited and short lives to the research and deciphering of magic without hesitation, even sacrificing their humanity for the sake of insignificant progress.
In comparison, the case of this lady in the black tower is considered quite mild.
"It would be more practical to give me a little more reward." Xing spread out his hands.
"Oh, that's for sure. After all, you'll need to spend more time on this project. I'll arrange the reward later, so don't worry." With that, the Black Tower began to operate the simulated universe, clearly starting to upgrade.
"Looking at how busy Heita was, Xing tiptoed out of the office."
"Ding ding—" Xing heard her phone vibrate just after leaving the office."
"Esther: Xing, thank you very much for helping Ms. Black Tower with the simulation test."
"Esther: The test was not easy, was it? You've worked so hard. This is your reward. 30000000 credits. Please accept."
"Esther: I'm sorry, I don't know what reward to give you right now. I'll give you another reward when you visit the space station another day."
"Esther: Please forgive me.jpg"
"Seeing Ester's adorable emoji, Xing felt a warm sensation in her core. But when she looked up and saw the long string of zeros following the credit point, she gasped."
At the same time, everyone outside the light curtain also felt a sour feeling.
So this is financial freedom?
"A top student, young and beautiful, gentle and considerate, pink-haired, a housekeeper..." After carefully comparing Ester on the light screen, Asaba Yuzhen's gaze began to shift to Yue Chengliu who was eating a red bean bun beside him.
Except for one eye-catching part that is drastically different in size, everything else is a perfect match!
Could it be...
Qian Yuzhen chuckled and said, "Deputy Section Chief Liu, you are not also a hidden rich woman, right?"
"Huh? You're talking nonsense—"
Before Yue Chengliu could refute, You Zhen put his face close to her desk and pretended to be pitiful: "Deputy Section Chief Liu, you know me. I have been weak and sick since I was a child, especially my teeth are very bad. I can't eat hard food..."
"Really?"
Yue Chengliu pushed up her glasses, a serene smile still on her face, but her slender, white fingers were already resting on the retractable scabbard behind her back. Seeing this, Asaba Yuma broke out in a cold sweat and tactfully retreated his head.
but.
The next second, Youzhen felt something sweet and soft in his mouth. When he came to his senses, he found that a soft and sticky red bean bun was stuffed in his mouth.
——It’s Cangjiao.
"Yuma, can't you just eat solid food? Cangjiao, give you the red bean buns that Sister Liu gave me today!"
Cangjiao put her little head over at the right time. The smile on her face was innocent and cute, which made people unconsciously think of the budding flowers on the riverside of Guangying Square.
Yuma was stunned for a full ten seconds. Just when he was about to hug Sokkaku with tears in his eyes and exclaim "What a good boy", he found that Sokkaku was secretly hiding an empty lunch box in his hand.
Asaba Yuma's name was written crookedly on the lunch box.
When the girl smiled, she would inadvertently reveal two cute little canine teeth, but at this moment, Yuma felt that these two canine teeth were pricking him and made him gasp. Cangjiao raised the lunch box with one hand, proudly puffing out his chest, and said triumphantly:
"...Yuuma, you said you can't handle hard food, right? But don't worry, look, I've eliminated them all for you."
Chapter 19: Fernina's heart is pounding! Pam is so cute!
"Xing is walking in the space station, still hesitant about her future choices."
She saw Dan Heng from a distance, but when she approached him, she didn't know what to say. It was Dan Heng, who was usually aloof, who spoke first: "What's wrong? You look like you have something to say?"
Xing's face showed a hint of curiosity and doubt: "Ever since I first met you, I always felt that you didn't seem like someone who liked traveling."
Dan Heng shook his head, his handsome face remaining calm, though his tone fluctuated slightly. "Taking a train doesn't equate to 'travel' or 'adventure'... The Starry Sky Train represents 'exploration,' understand?"
"Exploration means the unknown, whether it's the unknown risks or the unknown pleasures," Dan Heng said after a pause. "In my opinion, the unknown is no more terrifying than the known. The unknown often means it can still be controlled and changed."
"Is that so..." Facing Dan Heng's straightforward and honest gaze, Xing's eyes slightly avoided, "But I am a little hesitant."
Dan Heng's cold voice echoed in my ears: "Don't use hesitation as an excuse. If you hesitate for too long, your original idea will also dissipate."
"Xing's whole body trembled, as if the clouds had cleared and the sun had come out. She had already made a decision in her heart."
"Thank you, Danheng."
Dan Heng nodded slightly, turned around and continued to look at the starry sky.
"Having made up her mind, Xing walked towards the platform where the Star Train was parked. Upon seeing Himeko's signature long red hair, she approached and greeted her warmly."
"How's it going? Have you made up your mind?" Ji Zi smiled slightly. "You can say whatever you want."
"After thinking for a moment, Xing finally asked the question hidden in his heart: "Why did you invite me in the car?"
"Jizi didn't intend to hide anything and said straight to the point, 'Because you are different from everyone else, the [Star Core] in your body is the primary reason, but it's not the only reason.'"
"I think you need a chance to discover what makes you different from everyone else. Everyone tells you how unique you are, that you have a [star core] within you..." Jizi paused, shook her head, and continued, "But knowing this clearly for yourself is completely different from someone else telling you—no matter how believable it may seem."
"Only after you have experienced enough can you know what you have gained and lost from the 'Star Core', and who you really are. Only by learning how to control this 'Star Core' can you control your own destiny."
-
"If she came to our village, this girl would probably be the 'Star Core Jinchuriki', right?"
"But it looks like the Star Core is much more dangerous than you."
"Oh?" Jiu Lama snorted with a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Oh, oh, don't be angry." Naruto laughed heartily, "I believe in the 'Cancer of All Worlds' statement. This thing may have the power to destroy the world. But in my personal opinion, this thing is both a danger and an opportunity."
Naruto, who also has a nuclear-class weapon sealed in his body, agrees with Himeko's opinion. It was because he had the Nine-Tails sealed in his body that the villagers regarded him as the embodiment of destroying the village's peace and often looked down upon him.
But as he gradually practiced, from the half-tailed beast that he couldn't control at the beginning to the nine-tailed mode... he knew very well what a leap his strength would take after he fully mastered the nine-tailed chakra in his body.
"If Xing is willing to come to the village as a guest, I would be able to get along well with her." Naruto held his chin with one hand, imagining that one day in the future, the light curtain would open a channel connecting the two worlds, and he would have a cordial conversation with the people on the Starry Sky Train.
"Aren't you afraid of the danger brought by the Star God?" Jiu Lama warned.
When the Memory Star God appeared in the simulated universe, even someone as strong as Naruto couldn't help but fall into memories - although he woke up quickly, he also had a preliminary feeling of the Star God's power.
"Well, I have thought about this. Of course there are dangers."
Naruto was more open-minded. He stood up, stretched, and patted Kurama, who was lying on the ground, with a smile on his face. "Opportunities and dangers always come together... Haven't we overcome all the dangers we encountered over the years?"
"After Himeko's explanation, Xing became even more certain of her inner thoughts—she wanted to go to the train!"
She raised her head and formally told Jizi her decision. Jizi just smiled gently and gently placed her hand on her shoulder: "Get in the car, we're leaving."
"After the group boarded the train and several minutes of preparation, it finally slowly began to move. March Seven stood at the window, enthusiastically greeting the people outside."
"On the platform, Ester and Alan politely waved goodbye to them. After confirming their safe departure, Heita turned around and continued his research without looking back."
"Xing was sitting by the window, looking at the space station with some reluctance, when a sudden "Hello" interrupted the melancholy atmosphere that had just been brewing."
"Hey! I'm calling you!"
"Xing followed the sound and saw a strange furry creature slowly approaching. It wore a tall hat and a cute red uniform, and had a pair of huge ears drooping to the ground. It looked like a rabbit, but it walked upright."
"But this creature doesn't give people a particularly strange feeling. On the contrary, no matter how you look at it, it is 90% or even 100% cute."
"So... so cute!" Funina's heart was immediately pounding!
Even if she had lived for 500 years, and even if she had witnessed the popularity changes of countless Fontaine plush toys in these 500 years, she had never seen such a cute "little animal"!
...was stabbed hard.
Not only that, the entire Teyvat began to be swept by a wave of enthusiasm overnight.
Pam's image was immediately photographed, and all the major toy manufacturers in Fontaineland heard the news and took action. Various Pam plush toys and clay figures were produced overtime, just to seize the market as soon as possible.
Because they know...the code of wealth is here!
