Chapter 30

"General, I want this!"

"General: Get lost! No money!"

"I want to name my cat as two hundred thousand starships, and my dog as a commander rarely seen in a hundred generations; with such a combination, can I fight the Foundation?"

"The fleet in the game, no matter how large the scale, is fake; the fleet in reality, no matter how small the scale, the maintenance cost is real."

"Alright, next, countries will be busy calculating where the Foundation's headquarters is; the employment situation for astronomy students will definitely be good. Those who need matching guidance can add contact information:..."

At this moment, in the small star system, more than two hundred thousand starships of all levels were spread out.

Even a Lord Ravager, wanting to come here, would have to weigh whether they could retreat unscathed.

Antimatter Legion?

They were already dead men.

Unless the Aeon of "Destruction" Nanook intended to come in person.

"Truly spectacular..."

Himeko looked up at the starry sky.

The strobe lights on the outside of the starships flashed, and the number was so many that it looked like twinkling stars.

After many years, she actually recalled the experience of gazing at the Milky Way on a summer night in her childhood on a space station.

After enjoying the beautiful scenery, Himeko looked at Bai Bai Xuan, intending to thank him.

But she saw the latter had already arrived at March 7th's side, confirming Stelle's condition together.

March 7th, who was sitting on the ground, had been red-eyed, pulling the other party's clothes, signaling him to sit beside her.

Alright, no need to say thank you now.

Himeko put her hands on her hips, looking at Bai Bai Xuan, half helpless, half happy, and the remaining ninety-nine percent was joy:

"Sigh, hero saves beauty, such an old trope."

At this time, Welt Yang arrived late, and he pushed his glasses:

"Old-fashioned, but effective, isn't it?"

Himeko didn't refute, spreading her right hand:

"Yes, the only uncertainty is Stelle's condition."

"She was grazed by the Doomsday Beast's attack and fainted, but it's as if she dreamed of something terrifying."

As she spoke, she looked at the unconscious girl.

Stelle lay on March 7th's lap pillow, Dan Heng was taking her pulse, and Bai Bai Xuan was pressing his fingers against her forehead.

Only her expression was a bit ferocious, even painful.

I don't know what she saw.

I'm not satisfied with how this part is written; I'll change it when I think of a better way to write it...

Everything was filled with white.

A scorching wind blew.

"Star" felt as if she were falling.

Falling.

Falling toward the deeper depths.

[It is time to set off.]

As if the heavens and earth were just beginning, a woman's voice came from afar.

Following closely behind was a man's voice, both mature and callow.

[Cosmic Superman, open your eyes; I am Zoffy.]

"?"

"Star" slowly opened her eyes, but what she saw before her was a completely different world.

Between heaven and earth, there was only one hazy figure, emitting a golden light like the sun.

A golden wound ran across it, like a golden cyclopean eye, or perhaps a crack in the earth.

Golden liquid, golden lava, flowed out.

She couldn't help but wonder:

"What on earth is this..."

[Go and reach that end.]

The woman's voice continued, seeming to come from the depths of her soul, rooted in her past.

Below, invisible ripples spread out, impacting her body.

Something within her was awakened, instantly erupting with immense energy.

"Star" was shocked by the changes in herself.

She wanted to stop it, but could only watch helplessly as it all continued.

"...Who are you?"

[Use your own will to reach that conclusion.]

As the woman's voice sounded again, fragmented images appeared before her eyes.

A woman pressed her hand against her chest...

Himeko was smiling...

In a dark world, two gorgeously dressed young women stood back-to-back, one with hair like cyan, the other with hair like navy blue...

A figure stood in the sky holding a spear with one hand; behind her was a massive machine towering into the clouds...

Pain!

So painful!

My head hurts so much!

Her mind, filled with broken images, surged uncontrollably.

"Star" only felt her entire head throbbing abnormally, as if being poked by Dan Heng's spear tip, or repeatedly sliced by Himeko's drones.

"Star" furrowed her brows, her hands tensed, wanting to drive all of this out of her mind, leaving not a single trace!

But more images kept emerging, beyond the interference of her will.

Dan Heng blocked a strike...

Red alarms filling the screen...

The woman's voice continued, as if stating, as if pronouncing judgment—

[He has already noticed you.]

The roaring Doomsday Beast...

March 7th locked on by the Doomsday Beast...

The face of a woman with wine-red eyes...

And the scene of herself blocking the Doomsday Beast's attack.

That was the final image.

Because the figure entrenched in the world opened His eyes.

An eye containing countless golden lights, cold and indifferent, devoid of emotion.

Its owner was a white-haired man with a bare upper body, golden lava flowing over his entire frame, his expression cold and ruthless, as if looking down on all living things, looking down on the same ending.

The Aeon of "Destruction," Nanook, cast His gaze.

Yet, at that final moment, a gaze of equal majesty was cast from even further away, crossing time and space, pressing down upon Nanook.

At the very end, when her will could no longer hold on, a mature yet callow man's voice echoed in her mind—

"Patchouli♂Go!!"

Herta Space Station, on the platform.

The starships filling the sky had already annihilated all the Antimatter Legion on the exterior.

Perhaps out of fear of friendly fire, or perhaps out of concern for causing secondary damage to the space station.

Not a single starship used its main weapon; the most enemies destroyed, besides the point-defense system, were unmanned fighter jets.

Himeko even saw the grand occasion of a Voidranger: Trampler being focused-fired by forty battleships using secondary guns.

The barrage of fire was dense, weaving a tight net in the universe.

I don't know if they were here to escort the curios, to deal with the "Destruction" Legion, or to show off their military might.

Or were they prepared to accidentally dismantle the Herta Space Station?

But regardless, no more legions would come to die.

The space station's crisis was resolved.

They could turn their gaze to Stelle, who was still unconscious.

Stelle was now with her eyes closed, brows furrowed into a ball, teeth clenched, hands clenched into fists, and legs kicking violently from time to time.

What she saw in her dream was definitely not a wonderful scene.

Welt Yang walked to the side of the group, squatted down, and asked softly:

"Bai Bai Xuan, how is she?"

As he spoke, he gently brushed Stelle's gray hair, making it no longer messy.

March 7th and Dan Heng also looked at Bai Bai Xuan, their eyes full of anxiety.

Bai Bai Xuan pondered for a moment:

"From the perspective of life safety, she has no problems."

"And then, she is about to wake up, but there will be quite a big commotion."

"I can handle it, Mr. Yang can handle it, and Himeko can handle it."

March 7th pulled Bai Bai Xuan's sleeve hard, blinking her eyes.

Bai Bai Xuan looked back, then smiled slightly:

"You and Dan Heng really can't do this."

Seeing that Bai Bai Xuan had said so, Welt Yang intended to let him solve Stelle's predicament.

Among all the train crew members, except for Pom-Pom, the mascot who couldn't leave the train, Bai Bai Xuan was the most leisurely.

It's just... the commotion would be a bit big...

Welt Yang nodded:

"Hmm, then I'll leave it to you."

"Little March, Dan Heng, you two come over first."

Dan Heng frowned and sighed silently.

Stelle's expression was still ferocious; even if he grabbed her hand and helped her sort out her meridians, it couldn't alleviate the symptoms.

Her pulse was very chaotic at this moment, her heart rate was extremely high, and her state was very dangerous.

At this time, Bai Bai Xuan patted his shoulder and smiled slightly at him.

"Don't worry, a nightmare will eventually wake up."

Dan Heng nodded, stood up silently, and then walked to Welt's side.

As for March 7th, she slowly transferred Stelle into Bai Bai Xuan's arms and puffed out her cheeks.

Then her eyes lit up, and she used both hands to grab Bai Bai Xuan's hair.

When the latter looked at her suspiciously, she had already run far away, stood beside Welt, raised her right hand, bent her middle, ring, and little fingers, extended her index finger and thumb, and made a pistol shape:

"Hehe, biu~"

"This is a blessing added to you by a beautiful girl~"

The monocle reflected March 7th's innocent and happy smile, and Bai Bai Xuan also curled his lips.

Afterwards, he covered Stelle's forehead with his palm, closed his eyes slightly, and his consciousness sank.

He intended to take a look from afar and see this allotrope of "Khorne."

Not long after, Stelle woke up.

The double severe pain from spirit and body made her let out a painful cry:

"Hmph, ah, ahhhhhhh—"

And at the same time, in front of her chest, a bright light cluster appeared, erupting with incomparably tyrannical energy, and light strips like solar coronas erupted from it.

Even though March 7th and the others had stood far away, they still felt this wind was incomparably violent.

Stelle's body also floated uncontrollably.

"Everything is over, don't worry, have a good sleep."

"Have a good dream."

At that instant, the palm Bai Bai Xuan pressed on her forehead erupted with a profound power.

In a flash, everything returned to calm.

Bai Bai Xuan half-squatted on the ground, Stelle pillowing on his arm, sleeping soundly.
