Chapter 245

Where the Astral Express crew is.

March 7th patted Stelle on the shoulder, gave a thumbs up, and smiled: "Mm, not bad, you have 80% of my skill."

Welt Yang pondered: "However, looking at the plot in the livestream, it seems we have all found some information during this time. With the various forces of Penacony gathering in the plot, one really can't be careless."】

Dan Heng nodded and said: "But once we meet up and exchange the information we've obtained, we should be able to formulate corresponding countermeasures."】

【After taking the photo, a message suddenly appeared in the 'Astral Express Family' group on the phone—】

【Himeko: Everyone, are you having fun?】

【March 7th: Fun is fun】

【March 7th: But I always feel something is wrong......】

【March 7th: There's a sense of unreality, it's weird, I can't put my finger on it.】

【Stelle typed and sent: The investigation is a bit tense.】

【March 7th: I met a man with a plaster head at the auction, he left without doing anything, it was fine.】

【Welt: I also have some unpleasant discoveries. The situation is complex, it's best to talk in person.】

【Himeko: Me too.】

【Himeko: It seems it's time to return to reality.】

【Himeko: Come to my room to gather.】

【After the brief exchange, Stelle explained to Firefly that she needed to meet up with her companions.】

【Firefly was slightly stunned and sighed with some loss: "Are you going back? Time passes so quickly."】

【Immediately, Firefly also expressed understanding and said softly: "I also plan to return to reality to rest...... Let's go, we'll part ways at the 'Golden Hour'."】

In the livestream chat.

"Are we parting ways with Firefly already? No, I'm reluctant."】

"Wuwu, I'm reluctant too."】

"But Mr. Welt and Miss Himeko seemed to have discovered some important news just now; this is indeed serious business, so we shouldn't delay."】

"Eh? What's going on?"】

"This is......"】

Everyone only realized that after the conversation at Firefly's secret base, Kafka had switched the livestream screen to a new page.】

"Is this a new PV?"】

"Kafka Mama is still sharp; otherwise, we would still be immersed in the plot and wouldn't have noticed this new PV."】

"Let me see, is the protagonist of this PV that Masked Fool girl in the red dress?"】

"Ah, I remember, this girl's tongue is sharper than a sword."】

"The name of the PV is: 'Honkai: Star Rail' Sparkle Character PV—Solo Performance. In other words, is that Masked Fool's name Sparkle?"】

"Looks like another character who will enter the gacha pool; let's take a look quickly."】

【As Kafka clicked play, in the livestream, a hand gently shook the liquid flickering with beautiful light in a glass cup,】

【Subsequently, Sparkle was seen walking into the room with the mask that was originally tilted on her head, and caught off guard, she raised the pistol in her hand and fired directly at the front of the screen.】

【Hearing a loud gunshot, a bullet flickering with gorgeous colors dragged lines of color through the void, accompanied by the suddenly ringing hurried, joyful-style music, which instantly shocked everyone.】

【In the grand city of Penacony, Sparkle seemed like an ordinary girl without worries or constraints, jumping and bouncing on the street, appearing very lively and cute.】

【But under this BGM, it always gave people a weird feeling.】

【That colorful bullet rose in the air, Sparkle's back suddenly shook, and then she was penetrated by the bullet flowing with colorful light, falling to the ground with a bang.】

【And in the camera lens, the shooter who walked over slowly was still Sparkle?】

【The murderer and the victim were actually the same person, and appeared in the same frame, plus this strange music, making people's hearts lift without knowing it.】

"Is this what 'Solo Performance' means? In this PV, everything is played by Sparkle?!"】

"It should be. Should I say as expected of a Masked Fool who walked on the Path of Elation? It's really heart-stopping."】

"Hehehe, Sparkle's little feet, fragrant and soft."】

"Good guy, to the person above, are you really not afraid of social death?"】

【In the light and weird music, Sparkle jumped and bounced away, and behind her, under her feet, were the 'corpses' of Sparkle herself who had fallen.】

【In the subsequent scenes, one Sparkle after another competed to appear in the same frame, doing all kinds of actions. This scene, which looked very weird, seemed to be slowly accepted by everyone at this time.】

【However, as the gun-wielding Sparkle passed by, they were shot and killed one after another.】

"Hiss~ I know Sparkle is fine, but watching these Sparkles shot and falling one by one, I always feel creepy."】

"Me too, this Elation is a bit underworld."】

【At this time, in the PV, Sparkle probed the revolver magazine of the pistol, confirmed the number of bullets, pressed the revolver back and said: "There is one bullet left, want to play a game?"】

【As she spoke, the gun-wielding Sparkle aimed the muzzle at someone in front of her who had their back to Sparkle.】

【The Sparkle being pointed at by the gun had no panic or worry on her face, but instead revealed a crazy smile and asked with interest: "Read what?"】

【The gun-wielding Sparkle laughed: "The life of a fake?"】

【As she spoke, she raised the pistol and fired a shot at her own head, but it was an empty chamber.】

"This Russian roulette? Isn't it too crazy? Is this a Masked Fool? The style is completely different from the previous characters."】

"What to do, I'm a bit terrified, but also a bit hooked."】

"Is this Sparkle's true personality? Compared to this, the previous part where she was sharp-tongued to Aventurine was just child's play."】

"Indeed, what does a sharp mouth count for? I'm not normal anymore."】

"And this music, it all carries a sense of absurdity and weirdness. Not to mention, it fits Sparkle quite well."】

【At this moment, monsters in the dreamscape appeared and launched an attack on Sparkle.】

【Sparkle easily dodged the attack, and while knocking back the monster attacking her, she said: "Looks like there are people getting in the way?"】

【Another Sparkle revealed a dangerous and charming smile, took the pistol and fired a shot at herself; it was another empty chamber.】

【"So what?"】

【"Let me tell you what stupidity is!"】

【She fired an empty shot at herself again; the monster behind her suddenly attacked, but was easily avoided by Sparkle.】

【Sparkle took the opportunity to jump up and flip, firing another bullet at herself in the air; unsurprisingly, it was another empty chamber.】

【Afterward, Sparkle landed on the monster's head and joked: "Self-righteous, like you."】

【"Then...... what is a Fool?"】

【In the blink of an eye, the monster was defeated, and Sparkle sat leisurely on the monster's body, elegantly saying: "Knowing when to play dumb, like me."】

【Sparkle said, aiming the muzzle at herself again, revealing a crazy smile, and firing an empty shot.】

【Finally, Sparkle aimed the muzzle at another Sparkle in front of her and mocked: "Now, do you understand?"】

【The Sparkle being pointed at by the muzzle had an expression that seemed terrified, yet also expectant.】

【Next, the scene came to the bodies of the Sparkles who were shot, and the scene became black and white and weird.】

【Then, the scene returned to normal, coming to the gun-wielding Sparkle and the Sparkle being pointed at by the gun.】 【I saw the Sparkle being pointed at by the gun seem not to care about the last bullet at all, but instead dragged the muzzle to her head and laughed crazily: "I...... am Elation!"】

【"Hahahahahahahaha......"】

"Ahhh, this laughter, this music, my goosebumps."】

"Is this what a follower of Elation looks like? I finally understand why people in the universe avoid these people."】

"But I think this kind of Sparkle is even more likable, what should I do?"】

"To the person above, you are not alone."】

"You are not alone +1"】

"You are not alone +2"】

"You are not alone +10086"】

"Are you guys cursing people?"】

"It might also be that I was infected by Sparkle's Elation."】

【With Sparkle's crazy laughter, the scene began to become increasingly weird.】

【The colors were chaotic and disorderly, and Sparkle's smile and music filled everything with the style of Elation.】

【In the singing of the music, Sparkle's appearance constantly changed, dancing her posture, and finally, a bullet passed through, and the mask Sparkle was wearing also fell powerlessly into the water.】

【Just when everyone was guessing, the mask was picked up by Sparkle and put on her face.】

【The scene plunged into darkness, and then appeared again in a flash.】

【I saw in a room, Sparkle's eyes flickering with dangerous and weird light, looking straight ahead with a strange smile, as if she had passed through the screen and looked at all the viewers watching the PV.】

【As the camera slowly pulled away, Sparkle bodies like corpses appeared in the scene in a disorderly manner. In front of these Sparkles was a table of sumptuous food.】
