Chapter 342

"That should be right, otherwise Boothill won't let it go."

【Acheron stepped forward and said: "Sorry, this is my request. For some reasons, I was exiled from Penacony. Fortunately, this Memokeeper followed me all the way, so I had the opportunity to quietly get rid of the Family's control."】

【Black Swan looked at Acheron, her face showing a helpless smile: "Actually, it wasn't following, it was stalking. The process can't be called 【quiet】 at all... but forget it, I'll follow you."】

【Acheron continued: "I asked her to take me to a place outside the Family's sight and contact a few people worth contacting, which is you all."】

【Hearing this, Boothill couldn't help but sneer: "Trust? Haha, hahahahaha... Little cutie, are you treating me as a lunatic or a fool?"】

【Saying that, Boothill took out his gun and pointed it at Acheron: "How about this, let me open a few holes in you first, see what is hidden inside, and then we can talk about trust..."】

The livestream room.

"Although Boothill's words are quite harsh, why don't I feel nervous?"

"I think Boothill's bullets are not as fast as Miss Acheron's blade."

"No, do you remember who the last person Boothill pointed his gun at was?"

"The last one? Is it... Dan Heng?"

"Haha, that's right, I think Boothill's handgun has some kind of causality law. Whoever he points at will become a teammate. Dan Heng before was like this, and Miss Acheron should be no exception."

"It appeared, my little alliance handgun."

"God-tier causality weapon, little alliance handgun, you guys have such big brains."

Somewhere in the universe.

Boothill had black lines all over his head looking at the content of the barrage.

"Damn it, little alliance handgun, do you want to ask those little cuties who were loved to death by my gun what they think."

【In the plot, Acheron, who was pointed at by Boothill's handgun, looked calm and had no panic. She shook her head slightly and said: "No need for this. I will tell you everything you want to know, but not now... If my identity hadn't been exposed, perhaps there would be more time, but right now we can only do this."】

【Boothill was a bit confused by Acheron's words: "Only? What only?"】

【Acheron looked at the people in the Parlor Car and said shocking words: "Only in this way can I guarantee your safety..."】

【"Please let the Astral Express jump immediately and leave the Asdana star system."】

【As soon as these words came out, everyone didn't react for a while.】

【Pom-Pom looked at Acheron with confusion and said: "What does this passenger mean..."】

【Black Swan spoke at this time: "In my opinion, she has no malice, and she is telling the truth."】

【Acheron looked at Dan Heng and continued: "Mr. Dan Heng, I once traveled briefly with your companions and know where they are. Please believe that the Nameless are still safe and sound, but they also need our help."】

【Then, Acheron looked at Boothill and said: "And Mr. Boothill, you might have guessed it... I am waiting for your arrival. Galaxy Rangers have unpredictable whereabouts and have little contact with each other. Forgive me for only being able to make 【contact】 with you in this way."】

【"Only in this way can I find a real Galaxy Ranger. And only in this way can I fulfill a long-standing promise..."】

【"... to return 【his】 relic to its rightful owner."】

The place where the Astral Express crew is located.

March 7th held her phone and said: "So, Miss Acheron really intentionally impersonated a Galaxy Ranger to attract the real Galaxy Ranger Boothill to find her!?"

Welt Yang said: "Before, Miss Acheron once said that she came to Penacony because of a dying wish, and this dying wish should also be closely related to the Galaxy Rangers."

Dan Heng also sighed: "Because of a promise, she crossed the sea of stars, not hesitating to risk her life to come to Penacony..."】

The Luo Fu Xianzhou.

The Seat of Divine Foresight.

Lieutenant Yanqing couldn't help but be shocked: "Because of a promise, she did this much. Miss Acheron is worthy of a promise worth a thousand gold."

General Jing Yuan also vaguely guessed the reason and couldn't help but sigh: "Is this the reason why Miss Acheron impersonated a Galaxy Ranger? Sigh..."

Somewhere in the universe.

Boothill looked at the plot in the game with a solemn face. When he heard Acheron say that she wanted to give him the relic of a person because of a promise, his face became heavier.

【In the game, the screen gradually turned into a black curtain.】

【Acheron's calm voice carried a faint sadness and she spoke softly: "Someone once said to me... every rain is the mercy of heaven for the world."】

【"Rain and dew are the tears of gods, shed because of the sorrow of the human world. Just because they still fall, it means the gods have not yet lost hope for this world."】

【"So..."】

【The screen showed an image. In a dim sky, Acheron held a red oil-paper umbrella and stood quietly in the rain with a figure wearing a bamboo hat and a cloak.】

【In the sky, apart from the dim dark clouds, there was only a black sun.】

【It was dripping unknown, mysterious, and ominous black substances downward.】

【And in front of Acheron and the cloaked figure was a sea.】

【In the sea, countless eerie arms were reaching toward the black sun in the sky, as if because of some obsession, continuing these behaviors without stopping.】

【Acheron asked softly: "How long has this rain been falling?"】

【The mysterious person wearing a bamboo hat and a cloak made an old voice and said: "Once, I was just like you, expecting it to stop one day, and so a few years, decades passed... In the end, 【hope】 reached its end earlier than this rain."】

【"It seems that the god you speak of does not exist."】

【When saying this, the old man's gaze was always looking into the distance. In that dense black rain, countless, smoke-like changing, hazy shadows of hands emerged from the sea one by one, reaching toward the sky.】

【The mysterious person's old voice said: "Let me tell you a story..."】

【"Mortals walk on the path like a small boat crossing the water, leaving a winding trace, pushing away ripples of countless possibilities. Compared to the fleeting life of humans, these waves will not calm down for a long time."】

【"And among them, some people have traces of existence that are too strong, leaving their own reflections in these clusters of waves."】

【Acheron said softly: "Just like... those shadows on the sea."】

【The mysterious old man said: "【Blood-Sin Spirit】... the obsession of path walkers. They are born from the shadow of IX, regarding themselves as the subject, unknowingly repeating the behaviors of the deceased."】

【"They are born from 【Nihility】 and go toward 【Nihility】, spending a meaningless life. But it is such a group of empty phantoms..."】

【"... that were once my important companions, a group of Galaxy Rangers."】

The Luo Fu Xianzhou.

The Seat of Divine Foresight.

Lieutenant Yanqing looked at the hunched old man in the game and the eerie shadows in the sea, and said with difficulty: "Galaxy... Rangers... are they all Galaxy Rangers?"

"Becoming like this, is it because of IX? What is going on?"

General Jing Yuan closed his eyes slightly, sighed, and said: "This is Nihility. It equally covers all people and things in the universe. These former Galaxy Rangers could not avoid it either."

【Acheron asked softly: "Are you watching over them?"】

【The mysterious old man shook his head slightly and said: "Watching over? No, I am delivering them."】

【"That was a tragic war, a crusade that shocked the universe. The universe witnessed the fall of the Lord Ravager 【Zhuluo】, but the cost... apart from those who experienced it, no one will remember the cost."】

【"The death will of 【The Hunt】 will not subside until the end of life, so someone must guide these dead souls. They were heroes before they died, and should not become puppets of 【Nihility】 after death."】

【"As for me... I also lost too much on that battlefield and could no longer embark on the journey, instead becoming the most suitable person to complete this matter."】

The place where the Astral Express crew is located.

March 7th covered her mouth and said in a lost voice: "Lord Ravager 【Zhuluo】! Such a long time ago?"

"In other words, this old man and those Blood-Sin Spirits in the sea are all Galaxy Rangers who once crusaded against the Lord Ravager 【Zhuluo】!"

Welt Yang sighed and said: "Not only those sacrificed Galaxy Rangers, but now this old man who guides them is also a hero..."】

Dan Heng closed his eyes and sighed, saying: "It's hard to imagine how tragic that battle was."

The livestream room.

"Galaxy Rangers crusading against the Lord Ravager 【Zhuluo】! My god, I didn't expect that one day I could witness the shadows of these heroes."

"This is too hard. They finally killed 【Zhuluo】, but encountered Nihility, watching these past comrades turn into Blood-Sin Spirits. How painful it must be."

"Why do heroes have such an ending?"

"Sigh~ my heart is sour, it's really uncomfortable."

"You are all heroes, the universe will witness your achievements in crusading against 【Zhuluo】, and we will also remember what you did."

"So, the dying wish and relic Acheron spoke of were delivered by this old Galaxy Ranger?"

"That should be it. Although Miss Acheron walks on the path of Nihility, she has been fighting against Nihility from beginning to end. Such a person and that Galaxy Ranger must also be very good friends."

"So, in the end, this Galaxy Ranger also passed away, right?"

"From his state in the game, it seems he is already like a candle in the wind. Being able to meet Miss Acheron, perhaps this is the last luck of his remaining life."

Somewhere in the universe.

Boothill looked at the content in the plot, gritted his teeth, and said: "Damn it, is it actually this reason?"

"However, if what that Acheron said is true, then she should have that thing."

【Acheron's voice said the ruthless reality: "But you know, these Blood-Sin Spirits... after all, are not them."】

【The mysterious old man asked Acheron back: "In your opinion, does this matter have no meaning?"】

【Without needing Acheron to answer, the mysterious old man said leisurely: "But some things, even if they have no meaning, must always be done."】

【Seemingly moved by the mysterious old man's behavior, Acheron said softly: "I can help you."】 ===== CHAPTER 343 =====
