Chapter 322
Silver Wolf: "But you're not a Stellaron Hunter, why would Firefly listen to you?"
Stelle: "Because I'm Firefly's wing!!"
Paimon: "Uh..... don't I remember Miss Stelle saying that Miss Firefly is your wing??"
Stelle: "Hehe, it's all the same!"
March 7th: "Speaking seriously, Uncle Yang actually followed along to meet the Master of Dreams—will he really be alright?"
March 7th: "That Master of Dreams is someone who even dared to threaten Miss Huang Quan....."
March 7th: "He must have a few tricks up his sleeve, right?"
Stelle: "How about I go instead? If you push me too far, I can just self-destruct on the spot!"
Sparkle: "Ohoho, little gray-hair, why don't you go ahead and blow up for me?"
Stelle: "Dream on!"
Himeko: "It's fine. Since Welt has made up his mind, all we need to do is trust him."
Welt: "Mm, Himeko is right."
Welt: "Besides, under those circumstances, I'm the most suitable one to go."
Navia: "Then let's hope Mr. Welt and the other two won't run into any danger...."
The video continues.
【Everyone, please come over here.】
【Before we set off, there are still some preparations to make.】
After finishing the discussion with Sunday,
Welt led the Trailblazer group to a corner,
preparing to brief them on a few things.
【Although I was the one who volunteered to go along, facing the Master of Dreams on this trip..... the odds are likely not in our favor.】
Once everyone had settled in place,
Welt opened with this line.
【Huh? Even Uncle Yang is saying that—how powerful must this Master of Dreams be?】
Hearing Welt's words,
March 7th was startled for a moment.
【As the leader of Penacony's branch family, behind the Master of Dreams likely stands the entire Harmony faction....... Not to mention the Stellaron is also in his hands—we must prepare for the worst.】
Himeko said a line at this point.
【Eek, maybe Uncle Yang shouldn't go after all......】
Seeing Himeko say that,
March 7th suddenly felt a little uneasy.
【That won't work either.】
【Setting aside Miss Robin aside, I just feel that Mr. Sunday's attitude earlier was a bit off, but I can't quite put my finger on why......】
【At the very least, we need to make sure he won't turn coat at a critical moment.】
【Stelle, you should still have that keepsake the Company envoy gave you on you, right? May I borrow it for a moment.】
Welt shook his head,
then looked toward Stelle.
Seeing this,
Stelle was momentarily stunned,
then took out the chip Topaz had given her earlier,
and handed it to Welt.
【Heh, just as I thought......】
Welt looked at this chip,
his expression turning thoughtful.
【This thing probably can't work as a protective charm, right?】
Stelle looked at Welt's contemplative expression,
and couldn't help but chime in.
【Just as I suspected, the chip Topaz gave you...... is a small transmitter.】
【He's likely planning to use this device to track your movements, or to contact you when needed.】
【I didn't expect it would come in so handy in a situation like this.】
Welt looked at the chip in his hand,
feeling a touch of sentimentality.
【Topaz? Is he really still alive....... And what does negotiating with the Master of Dreams have to do with him?】
March 7th didn't quite understand what Welt meant.
【Do you remember what I said before?】
【Cooperating with the Company is not a bad way to keep the family in check.】
【Once the negotiation takes an unexpected turn, it would be tantamount to confirming the family's intent to get involved with the Stellaron.】
【That's exactly the breakthrough that envoy has been dreaming of.】
【When the time comes, I'll use this transmitter to send the information to the Company.】
【The only thing we have to gamble on is whether Topaz is still safe and sound.】

However, the company's communication lines are always closely monitored by designated personnel, let alone that he is an important official in the Strategic Investment Department—just sending a message should be sufficient.
Welt explained his plan.
...... Good luck, Welt.
Seeing that Welt had already prepared himself,
and that his resolve was firm,
Himeko could only offer him a farewell.
"Mm, you all take care too."
"If anything goes wrong... don't worry about me—just seal the Core."
Welt gave one final warning to everyone,
then followed Sunday and Robin.
Stelle: "No wonder Uncle Yang thinks so thoroughly!"
Stelle: "But the chip Sandgold gave me... is actually a surveillance device?"
Stelle: "No wonder he always knows where I am!"
March 7th: "You really thought company people would just give you something for free?"
March 7th: "Do you think they're fools?"
Sandgold: "Heh, it's not really surveillance—just a spare move."
Sandgold: "Still, from the footage, it seems this spare move is about to come into play."
Furina: "Knowing full well that danger lies ahead, Mr. Welt still walks forward without hesitation..."
Furina: "And for some reason, I feel like he's already very practiced at this sort of thing?"
Gallagher: "Sacrificing oneself for righteousness..."
Gallagher: "Mr. Welt is a true man, a true hero!"
Zhong Li: "Mm, truly admirable."
Welt: "You flatter me—I'm merely doing what I can."
Hu Tao: "From what Mr. Welt said in the video, it sounds like he doesn't fully trust Mr. Sunday?"
Keqing: "Mr. Sunday's expression just now was indeed strange."
Keqing: "It's natural for Mr. Welt to have doubts."
Paimon: "But... I think Mr. Sunday probably wouldn't turn traitor, right?"
Paimon: "After all, his own sister is on the Train Crew's side!"
Ying: "Yes, I also think Mr. Sunday wouldn't do that."
Botero: "Ha, don't jump to conclusions so quickly."
