Chapter 553 - 559: The Astral Express Crew's Cozy Daily Life! It warms my cold, dead heart.
A 5,000-square-meter office?That... that's almost the size of a football field, isn't it?
Could my peak really be sitting in an office of that magnitude?
If the office is like that,
The money I'd earn would probably last me a lifetime, wouldn't it?
And the status would be different too!
Second to none, above all others!
A single glance, and the company employees would tremble in fear.
Thinking of this.
Stelle felt her mouth go dry!
Her back straightened slightly.
Is it too late for me to join the Interastral Peace Corporation now?
Just as she was completely immersed in this feeling.
The third option has arrived!
[Become a Riddler, Babibabobala!]
On the big screen,
The style suddenly changed!
[To create the most postmodern stainless steel hamburger that aligns with ontological representation, one must balance the discrete variables of the foundational matrix and apply active earth pressure to strip the signifier from the acrylic coating.]
[When filling out the divorce application for adjacent buildings, one should follow the electronic line folding of set construction symbols, align the granularity, and then fuse the self.]
[The End]
...
"What the hell, this..."
"? What did I just watch?"
"Now that's the right flavor!"
"That's more like it!"
"Very postmodern."
"The first two were still a bit too fantastical, this one feels the most plausible!"
"I have some objections about the third option. Whoever can write this stuff is truly a genius! A real Riddler, seeing a steel bar and not thinking of using it to cut tires—have they never eaten red sausage or seen sugar-roasted chestnuts in Izumo..."
"But you haven't considered the social chaos caused by a decades-expired bowl of fried noodles, which could lead to the instantaneous explosion of countless water molecules. If we separate astronauts from real estate, the Anti-Organic Equation wouldn't be destroyed by Aventurine and Wuwu Bo, causing the lifespan of stars to vanish on the Star Rail, with consequences as dire as Pom-Pom being unable to eat the phonograph planted in the pot!"
"Insane!"
"It's over! The real Riddlers are here, we're doomed!"
...
Riddlers hidden across the universe were all exposed!
Fortunately,
March 7th's voice timely rescued all the players from this riddle-filled madness!
"Stop, stop, stop, stop daydreaming! Please make a proper choice!"
[Become a Nameless]
After making the choice, March 7th excitedly pumped her fist.
"Yay! We're definitely going to be the best Trailblaze partners!"
"Since Stelle has made her decision, everyone, please gather in a circle and prepare for the new member joining ceremony of the Astral Express!"
After Pom-Pom finished speaking,
The five members of the train had already formed a circle,
With Pom-Pom in the center.
[Are we about to make a blood oath?]
March 7th: "Exactly, I had to personally crush one back then... Just kidding, it's not like we're a criminal gang!"
"Passenger Stelle, please recite the Trailblazer's creed with me."
At this moment, two more options appeared.
[(Recite the creed)]
[This is too embarrassing, I refuse...]
On the scene,
Stelle took a deep breath,
Looked to both sides.
Himeko, Dan Heng, and March 7th all shot her sharp, sword-like glances!
The message was clear—
Choose the second one!
Everyone is here right now!
Reciting the creed would be a total social disaster!
Stelle nodded,
Understanding perfectly.
Chose [This is too embarrassing, I refuse...]
Meanwhile,
On the train.
Since Pom-Pom couldn't leave the train, it was immediately focused on the live broadcast!
Seeing the scene where the Trailblazer's creed was about to be recited, its eyes practically lit up with excitement!
"It's here, it's finally here!"
"This is the perfect opportunity to educate everyone about the Trailblazer's creed!"
"Passengers, it's up to you now!"
"Show the entire universe the essential creed of becoming a Trailblazer!"
Perhaps,
After this event,
The Path of Trailblazing will extend in some way!
Pom-Pom excitedly rubbed his hands together!
However,
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!
The next second,
Stelle actually chose the second option!
"This... where's the shame in it? Rituals are important, Pom!"
March 7th waved her hand: "See! I told you everyone would find it embarrassing!"
"Let's just cancel this segment from now on," Dan Heng said indifferently.
"Yes, let's cancel it," Himeko agreed.
The only one who didn't join in, Welt, said helplessly, "Sorry, Conductor, it seems we're in the minority."
Ahhhhhhh!
It's really gone!
Damn it!
You guys are on cleaning duty for the next week when you get on the train!
Fortunately,
There are still many in the barrage who support it!
...
"The oath clearly has a sense of ceremony!"
"I think the oath is important."
"One, even as the Path rises and falls, the Trailblazer should have their own stance. Two, even when facing stormy seas, the Astral Express Crew should move in unison."
"Three, even in life-and-death situations, one should still stand against injustice. Four, even if forgotten by the world, one should not dwell on the aftermath."
"Five, even as the galaxy fades into twilight, one should still illuminate the long night. Six, even in chaotic situations, one should look forward and crush the chaos."
"May this journey lead us to the stars."
"Looking at it this way, Uncle Yang is more ceremonial!"
"Wrong! Actually, Uncle Yang is just a kid at heart!"
"It's very chuunibyou, and he loves it."
...
"Alright, the Conductor can only respect the voting results, Pom... But no matter what! Passenger Stelle, welcome to becoming one of the Nameless!"
Pom-Pom reluctantly compromised.
"Then let's return to the original topic... Stelle, as a Nameless of the Astral Express, you should have your own room."
"That's right! Passenger Stelle finally has a place to call home, Pom is so relieved!"
Welt: "It's just that, compared to the past, the train now has far fewer carriages. There are only four rooms in the Passenger Cabin. Strictly speaking, three. Dan Heng even sleeps in the archives."
Dan Heng shrugged: "I don't mind."
[Let's buy another carriage!]
"The parts to build a carriage aren't that easy to come by, Pom..."
"But Stelle's room doesn't necessarily have to be in the Passenger Cabin," Old Yang suggested again.
"Exactly! There happens to be an unused room on the second floor of the Party Car that can be Stelle's room~ Let's go take a look!"
...
"I thought it was a foldable design, but there are really only four rooms?"
"Damn... I feel like clicking every option in this dialogue!"
"This is a great opportunity to learn about the Astral Express!"
"I love watching their relaxed daily lives!"
"It warms my cold, dead body."
"Yu Ling, you get it! In Honkai Impact 3rd, you cut me to pieces, but this version's story is so healing, you've got me dying and coming back to life, damn it!"
"The new characters this version are Sunday and Tingyun, I suspect they'll board the train."
"If that's the case, I wouldn't mind squeezing in with Tingyun."
"Is that really why you want to squeeze in with Tingyun? I'm too embarrassed to call you out!"
"Sunday can sleep in my room!"
