Chapter 561: Stelle: Shocked, I

Stelle: "Tsk tsk tsk, the company's ambitions are truly grand!"

Furina: "So even the company doesn't favor the Star God of Order?"

Zhong Li: "The company seeks to establish new cosmic rules through its credit system."

Zhong Li: "Thus, for the company, the Star God of Order cannot exist."

Zhong Li: "As the Jade Lady said, a universe needs no two orders."

Hu Tao: "I'm starting to suspect—did the company have a hand in the Star God of Order's death?"

March 7th: "Ah... but that's a Star God!"

March 7th: "Even if the company is powerful, it couldn't possibly have that kind of capability, could it?"

Truth Doctor: "Indeed, it's obvious this must be a struggle among Star Gods."

Truth Doctor: "The specific details remain unknown to us."

Amber: "By the way, if the company truly brings the entire universe under its credit system, would that be a good thing or a bad thing?"

Wind: "Hehe, probably a mix of both."

Wind: "A unified system would better promote cosmic development—and peace, too."

Wind: "But the key issue is, the company's power would become monstrously large."

Wind: "If the company ever plots something sinister, resistance would be nearly impossible!"

Zhong Li: "Yet the fact is, the company's expansion has never ceased."

Zhong Li: "Unless a great upheaval arises, this trend may be hard to reverse..."

Gan Yu: "Then we can only hope the company never forgets it is a believer of Preservation."

{.... }

{Ho ho ho, good, good! }

{You've convinced me. }

{Now tell me—what is that solution? }

{Let's see if we're thinking of the same thing. }

Old Otto fell silent for a moment,

then burst into laughter,

accepting the Jade Lady's proposal.

{Then let's return to the previous topic. }

{Topaz, invite Ganlu to join the table. }

No sooner had the Jade Lady spoken,

than Topaz entered the meeting room with Himeko from outside.

Stelle: "Eh???"

Stelle: "Ganlu is Himeko-sis??"

Stelle: "How did Himeko-sis become Ganlu?"

March 7th: "Uh... Stelle, you're speaking strangely."

March 7th: "From how it looks, Himeko-sis is clearly the representative of our Star Rail, isn't she?"

March 7th: "But why did the Jade Lady summon Himeko-sis?"

March 7th: "To help persuade Old Otto?"

March 7th: "But didn't he already compromise?"

Welt: "It's for the solution the Jade Lady mentioned just now."

Furina: "That one about expanding the influence of the Star of Kuodasheng Society?"

Furina: "Could it be... the Jade Lady wants to use the Star Rail's reputation to bolster Penacony's prestige?"

Ying: "Yes, I think that's very likely."

Stelle: "Wait a second... is the Star Rail really that famous across the universe?"

Stelle: "I never felt it was that well-known."

Brother Dan Heng: "Perhaps our generation's train has only just begun its journey and hasn't yet gained great renown."

Brother Dan Heng: "But in past eras, the Star Rail's fame was truly known throughout the cosmos."

Botelho: "Hey, a bunch of old good souls riding the train everywhere, linking starways and eliminating disasters."

Botelho: "Even at the cost of their own lives."

Botelho: "How could their reputation not be loud?"

Stelle: "So we're that great?"

Stelle: "Wow, then I've got to be proud!"

The video continues.

【Mr. Oti, allow me to introduce—this is one of Penacony's future shareholders, Ms. Himeko of the Astral Express!】

{Mr. Otto, allow me to introduce you—this is Ms. Himeko of the Star Rail, one of Penacony's future shareholders! }

The Jade Lady introduced Himeko's identity to Old Otto.

{Mr. Otto Ifa, it is an honor to meet you. }

{I am honored to represent the Star Rail in meeting with you. }

March 7th: "Wait a minute!!"

【60】 March 7th: "Did we hear something wrong??"
