At first.

No one had reacted yet.

Unaware of which mastermind was posing such soul-searching questions!

They were only marveling at the puppets that appeared in the theater.

They looked strange and twisted.

But seemed to be filled with a sense of sacredness!

Next.

The scene suddenly changed!

A beam of light shot straight into the sky!

Like a signal flare fired by someone!

What followed was the sight of Penacony's prosperous city rapidly dissolving!

The rooftops of skyscrapers, the pipelines in the air, the luxurious sports cars on the ground... all were stirred by this gust of wind!

Quickly disappearing and dissolving!

Turning into vast amounts of blue memory essence.

Everyone present was dumbfounded for a moment!

"Again?!"

"Twice in a row?"

"The Second Incident of Penacony!"

"By the Thousand-Faced God, what sin has Penacony committed to be destroyed twice in one day?"

"I'm numb."

"I'm tired, just let it be destroyed!"

At the top of a lighthouse.

A man was holding onto the railing with one hand, gazing into the distance at Penacony.

Beside Boothill.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Bro, why does that figure look so much like you?"

"Damn it! That's me!"

Boothill's row of shark-like teeth gleamed brightly.

He never expected it!

He actually appeared in the storyline of Honkai: Star Rail!

"All those times I robbed the company's bank to top up 648 for this game were worth it!"

Next.

The scene changed.

In a dark sea.

Acheron with white hair and another person appeared.

Standing opposite each other.

Acheron's expression shifted slightly.

Meanwhile, in the corridor.

Aventurine's reaction was even more intense!

"Is that... me?!"

Unfortunately.

This shot was only a brief moment.

Aventurine only caught a glimpse of that figure.

He had no idea why he appeared in this scene!

Now, his mind was filled with questions!

He couldn't wait to fast-forward to the next update.

To see what he had done in the game!

"Like a moth to the flame, born to die..."

In the next scene.

It was actually Firefly!

After saying these words.

She turned and left.

As if she had made some kind of resolution.

"Firefly won the revival match!"

"I told you Firefly could still be saved!"

"Damn it! I believe it! I completely believe this trailer now!"

"Is the background music this hype?"

"The next enemy must be the real boss!"

After Firefly's scene ended.

Stelle put on a peculiarly shaped hat.

Black Swan looked back in the crowd.

These were likely preparations before the final battle.

Suddenly!

A pale dragon swam past the camera!

In the next scene...

It was actually the golden, radiant Divine Sovereign!

The pale dragon circled around the Divine Sovereign.

And at the center of these two colossal beings.

Were two figures standing in mid-air!

Dan Heng and Jing Yuan!

Dan Heng wielded the heavy Abyssal Pearl in his hand, while Jing Yuan gripped his formation blade, ready to strike.

"A combined ultimate move? Holy crap!"

"Jing Yuan truly has a 100% participation rate!"

"Divine Sovereign paired with the pale dragon? It's a guaranteed win!"

"Wait, are you two even in the same art style?"

"Look closely! Behind them are the Starskiffs of Xianzhou!"

"Holy crap! Xianzhou has come to support!"

"It's settled! It's settled!"

"It all matches up!"

"Everyone, look above you! It perfectly aligns with the game. Xianzhou is really here!"

"Has Penacony already been taken over by Xianzhou?"

At this moment.

Above Penacony.

Jing Yuan and Dan Heng were naturally keeping an eye on the situation.

Ready to provide support at any moment.

On the screen before them.

This scene naturally appeared.

Jing Yuan immediately smiled knowingly.

This was exactly a glimpse of the future that Yu Ling had revealed to him before!

Now it all matched up!

This video must indeed be Yu Ling's work.

It could be considered an early leak of the storyline.

And the next scene.

Was even more surprising and shocking!

In the sky of Penacony.

A circular rift opened.

From it fell a shower of golden rain!

A voice said, "I will overturn this beautiful dream."

"And create the grandest death."

The rift was enormous.

Almost enveloping the entire city below.

Combined with the words in the background.

It felt as if Penacony was about to be destroyed!

The onlookers were already stunned.

"Again?"

"Three times, three times!"

"Penacony is really suffering!"

"Damn it! Is everyone trying to destroy Penacony today?"

"That voice sounds familiar, doesn't it?"

"Doesn't it sound a lot like Mr. Aventurine?"

"Golden rain?"

"Could this person be the final boss?!"

As the perspective zoomed in.

It became clear.

That it wasn't golden rain.

But an endless sea of golden chips filling the sky!

The figure in the air.

Held a gemstone in their hand.

Anyone with a keen eye could tell that this wasn't just any ordinary gemstone—it was the Cornerstone possessed by the Ten Stonehearts!

It was none other than the Aventurine Stone!

Paired with their extravagant attire!

Their identity was unmistakable!

In an instant!

Many eyes turned to Aventurine!

"Well, well… the final boss was right beside us all along!"

"So you're the final boss?"

"Prisoner Aventurine, care to explain?"

"Alright, alright, everyone's been hiding something!"

"Brothers, we've all been used as pawns!"

"From now on, I'm not trusting anyone!"

"Until Yu Ling's official storyline is revealed, I suggest everyone keeps a cool head!"

"In one word, trust Yu Ling!"

Now.

Everyone's belief that Acheron was the final boss had been severely shaken!

What followed next.

Completely dispelled all lingering doubts!

As the golden rain fell.

March 7th's face twisted in agony.

And before the Astral Express Crew.

Someone stepped forward!

With a single step.

The ground in front of them seemed to be drenched in ink, taking on a state of Nihility.

In an instant.

All the chips in the sky came to a halt.

The person standing before the Astral Express Crew was none other than... Acheron!!

This scene left everyone utterly stunned!

According to the family's previous descriptions, Acheron sat firmly on the opposite side of everyone, a Messenger who brought Destruction and death, seeking to overthrow Penacony and more...

But now!

Just as Aventurine sought to shatter the dream and bring death, at the moment when the Astral Express Crew needed aid the most...

She stepped forward!

Raising her longsword to her chest, one of her hands had already turned red. This was her gesture before drawing her blade!

At the same time, the scene suddenly flashed back, likely representing Acheron's past memories.

In a dim setting, Acheron stood amidst the wreckage of a battlefield. Weapons were embedded in the ground around her, but there were no survivors in sight. Only Acheron's solitary figure remained!

Strangely...

In this flashback, Acheron had her longsword sheathed at her waist, but a pair of horns adorned her head. The others didn't think much of it, assuming it must be related to Acheron's past experiences.

Acheron herself was slightly moved when she saw this scene.

She sighed, "Izumo..."

This was something that had happened when she was still in her homeland. She never expected it to be recorded in Yu Ling's storyline. This made Acheron feel a sense of wonder once again. A world that had already returned to "Nihility" could still be preserved within this game. Did this signify a way to resist Nihility?

As Acheron pondered, someone nearby was even more shocked than she was!

Old Yang, upon witnessing this scene, was as if struck by lightning! The hand holding his cane trembled slightly.

During the era of fighting against the Honkai, that woman had made a resolute choice. She joined the World Serpent, embraced the Honkai within her, and declared to the world the return of the Herrscher of Thunder.

Her name was... Raiden Mei!

And this background perfectly overlapped with Old Yang's memory of Mei's Herrscher of Thunder form!

Old Yang took a deep breath, suppressing the impulse within him. If the situation hadn't been so tense, he would have gone up to ask Acheron if her real name was Raiden Mei!

After the flashback ended, Acheron's hair had turned pale, and her pupils shifted from purple to red. Blood tears fell, and red lightning surged from her longsword. Meanwhile, golden chips were falling from the sky. The two sides had now formed a confrontation.

At this point, it was clear that Acheron had stepped in for the sake of the Astral Express Crew! This completely overturned everyone's previous impressions!

Several seconds passed before someone exclaimed in a hoarse voice, "So... Acheron is actually... an ally?"

"Is this for real...?"

"Holy cow!"

"I think the video has made it pretty clear."

"This..."

"An Emanator... is on our side!?"

"Lady Acheron! I was wrong!"

Many others were still struggling to process this. It was a complete reversal of expectations!

In the previous videos, Acheron's power and terror had been deeply ingrained in everyone's minds... Facing her, everyone felt immense pressure. The Astral Express Crew had even prepared to stake their lives on the line.

But now!

The video brought by Sparkle today had completely overturned all those perceptions!

Acheron was actually on the side of the Astral Express Crew!

The final boss turned out to be an ally!

This kind of treatment,

has never been seen before!

Among the crowd.

There were some eager onlookers who reacted immediately.

They secretly recorded this scene.

And uploaded it online!
