"Are you joking, Professor?"
Aventurine took off his sunglasses.
He chuckled dismissively.
"I think the only people in the company who might beco pool characters are those with compassion, like Topaz."
"How could soone like , a ruthless gambler, possibly beco a playable character in Honkai: Star Rail?"
"Are we really expecting all the players in the universe to draw from a gambler's pool?"
"Moreover, for the position I've reached now, I certainly don't want Yu Ling to expose the unsavory things I've done."
"That would only make my scummy partners hate even more."
"Oh, of course, that doesn't include you, Professor."
Aventurine took a sip of water.
He felt that Ratio was joking to so extent.
Ratio closed Honkai: Star Rail and opened another interface.
Little Gui's livestream.
At the sa ti, he said, "In that case, why don't you bet with ?"
"Bet on what?" Aventurine beca interested.
"Let's bet on whether we will beco playable characters in this ga."
"Sure, Professor, but you should know that my luck has always been good."
Aventurine was quite confident.
He felt that soone like him could basically be ruled out from the ranks of playable characters.
In fact, becoming a weekly boss was more likely than becoming a playable character!
Because.
From the player's perspective.
Soone like him had no "charm" to speak of.
Self-serving.
Full of lies.
He had been complained about by many colleagues at the company.
Aventurine didn't expect anyone to like him.
However.
He was quite confident in his sches.
"At the very least, I believe I will have a role in the Penacony storyline."
"As a villain, I suppose I'm a decent one, right?"
"Maybe Yu Ling will arrange for to be a weekly boss."
"What do you think, Professor Ratio?"
Aventurine looked over.
He saw that Ratio had already put on a plaster cast.
While typing a line of text on the screen in front of him, he replied, "So what do you think? How would the skills of a self-proclaid [Dr. Ratio] be designed if he beca a playable character?"
Aventurine leaned closer.
Seeing that the screen was Little Gui's livestream, he couldn't help but tease, "So you watch livestreams too? Actually, I quite like this strear..."
As he spoke halfway through, Aventurine paused. Ratio had just sent twenty Diting Storms!
And sent that line as a comnt.
[Go to the space station and accept the mission [The Genius Stars Shine Bright]]
...
In Little Gui's livestream.
A line of cool special effects exploded on her livestream interface.
[[Dr. Ratio] gifted strear Little Gui 20 Diting Storms and comnted: Go to the space station and accept the mission [The Genius Stars Shine Bright]]
Guinaifen was montarily stunned.
She imdiately rubbed her hands together in excitent.
"Thank you to [Dr. Ratio] for the twenty Diting Storms; what a generous boss!"
"Space station?"
"Huh? There's actually a mission there?"
"Isn't that our Trailblazer's starting village?"
Guinaifen teleported to the Master Control Zone of the space station.
Wandering aimlessly on the map.
Soon.
Near an advertisent board, she saw two staff mbers discussing sothing.
One of them said, "Exciting news has arrived!"
"What news?"
"Don't spread it—Ruan i is coming to the space station!"
Guinaifen could be certain.
This conversation was definitely added after the version update!
Previously, she had thoroughly explored the entire map of the space station, finding all the treasure chests and hidden easter eggs.
She had no recollection of this conversation.
And the keyword [Ruan i] made Guinaifen pause.
"Why does that na sound familiar?"
At that mont.
It seed she had triggered this easter egg.
She received a ssage in the ga.
It was from Herta.
But this ti she wasn't there to urge players to test the Simulated Universe.
[Herta: I have good news for you]
[Ruan i is coming to the space station]
[Stelle: Ruan i?]
[Herta: Genius Society's Ruan i]
[I called her here; Screwllum is also here, and we need to discuss sothing important]
[Co back when you have ti to introduce yourself, so she knows who is testing the Simulated Universe]
[Rember to show respect to Ruan i; you won't have many opportunities to et her]
After the ssage was sent.
A prompt popped up below.
[Would you like to accept the mission: The Genius Stars Shine Bright?]
[You can choose to watch the preview short film of the storyline mission; click here to play.]
Guinaifen let out a big sigh of relief!
Because the color of this mission.
Was gold!
This indicated that it belonged to a Trailblaze Mission or Trailblaze Continuance.
It was considered the main storyline mission of Honkai: Star Rail.
"I knew it!"
"I was wondering why I couldn't find any new main storyline missions!"
"The missions I accepted were all various side quests; it turns out the real main storyline mission has returned to the space station!"
"I was careless; I missed it right under my nose!"
"It seems that after this major update, the last two limited five-star characters will be in this mission!"
The corners of Guinaifen's mouth slowly curled up.
She really had to thank this ID nad [Dr. Ratio]!
Not only did he give her a wave of rewards, but he also pointed her in the direction of the main storyline mission.
Double benefits!
Guinaifen prepared herself, leaning closer to the screen.
Ready to watch this preview short film carefully.
Not wanting to miss any detail inside!
anwhile.
At Herta space station.
Nurous staff mbers gathered in front of the big screen.
Their expressions were excited and thrilled.
A passing female staff mber held a docunt, already accustod to this situation.
Ever since Honkai: Star Rail beca a sensation at the space station.
These staff mbers had transford like this.
They no longer cared about their research.
Instead, they gathered in front of the big screen to watch the ga's storyline.
After all.
The female researcher couldn't understand these people.
She had joined the space station with the ambition of becoming a biological expert like Ruan i!
Although as she delved deeper into the field, she gradually realized the gap between herself and Ruan i...
She was still determined to get as close as possible to that genius!
She had no ti to play gas.
She devoted all her energy to scientific research.
The female researcher gently adjusted her glasses.
Imagining herself as Ruan i, she would surely be disdainful and have no further expectations for these researchers who "indulged in trivial pursuits."
The diversity of life was vividly displayed in them.
Just as the female researcher passed by.
Suddenly, she heard soone exclaim in surprise: "WTF! So the hidden main storyline is here!"
"The main quest has returned to our space station!"
"And! Ruan i is going to appear in the plot!"
The female researcher was stunned.
What did I just hear?
Ruan i?
Is Ruan i really in this ga?
She imdiately put down the docunts in her hands.
And joined the crowd of onlookers.
