Chapter 18

"What survivors? Everything is just a fake illusion forged by the monsters!"

"You cosmic Forget-Me-Not! Pay with your life!"

"..."

Regardless, the audience watching this scene was genuinely happy that this civilization still had a few survivors.

Even the staff of the "Herta" Space Station, who were in a desperate situation, briefly forgot the pain of losing children, the pain of losing spouses, and the agony of being separated from loved ones by life and death.

At that moment, they truly believed that this universe might possess warmth and would not descend into ultimate despair and destruction.

And on the Astral Express.

Pom-Pom coughed lightly and tilted its head to look at Bai Xuan, who was treating it like a large doll, pinching its ears and trying to tie them into a knot:

"This file is coming to an end, right? How about we find an opportunity to go pay our respects later?"

Bai Xuan rubbed the rabbit ears in his hands without answering the question directly, instead staring blankly at the image in the sky.

At this moment, he looked more like a philosopher.

Pom-Pom saw his state was a bit strange, so it asked softly:

"Passenger Bai Xuan, are you also feeling sad for the lives lost and moved by the lives that survived?"

Pom-Pom suspected this footage had touched upon Bai Xuan's past, which was why he was making such an expression.

Bai Xuan raised his right hand and tapped the frame of his glasses:

"No, I am pondering a philosophical question."

"When the prey knows the bait is bait, when does it look at the bait; when does it swallow the bait?"

"What do you think, Pom-Pom?"

Pom-Pom shook its head; Bai Xuan was again saying things it found hard to understand, so it had to continue watching the screen to pass the time.

"Pom-Pom is just Pom-Pom; I don't understand the question you're asking." ===== CHAPTER 20 =====
