Penacony.
Golden Hour.
Just as the players in the live stream had predicted.
Several scenes that appeared in the story now have many players rushing to check in.
At the Clockie Statue.
Many players are taking photos with the statue.
So players.
Are following the Trailblazer's footsteps from the story.
To recreate the Trailblaze journey.
"Friends, can you see the Origami Bird?"
"Can't see it!"
"Before heading to Dream's Edge with Firefly, I even t Clockie!"
"That part of the story really felt like a dream, I even got a Clockwork that can change emotions?"
"After all, you're the protagonist of 'Honkai: Star Rail,' we ordinary players shouldn't expect to recreate this part..."
"I don't agree with that! I think I still have a childlike heart, I should be able to see Clockie!"
"Let's go, let's try to find Clockie together!"
"Is anyone coming with to find the path to Dream's Edge?"
"Count in!"
"Don't bother looking, the Family has already taken control of that area."
"Huh?"
"The Family is so boring!"
"Good news: the Family plans to build a dedicated check-in spot there, and it will be open to the public once the construction is complete."
...
Aside from the offline buzz in Penacony.
On the internet.
Because the ga's storyline referenced Robin's If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking.
The song has exploded in popularity once again!
Even more than when it was first released!
It directly topped the charts on major music rankings across the galaxy!
The comnt sections have also been "overrun" by players.
[Those who spent 20,000 Credits on Firefly, co here and reflect on yourselves.]
[Dear Trailblazer, please stay a mont. Do you acknowledge that Miss Firefly's eyebrows are unparalleled? May Miss Firefly be with you.]
[Yu Ling's ga actually featured Robin's song, I'm ecstatic as a fan of both!]
[We Star Rail players are eating so well!]
[Can she be added to the gacha pool? I really like Firefly.]
[Reply: Absolutely.]
[Yu Ling better design Firefly as a Harmony character, just buffing from the back, leave the frontline battles to .]
...
The Iris Family.
All the agents are currently going crazy.
Just to find Firefly's whereabouts and invite her to beco an artist of the Iris Family!
A female star agent was on the phone at the mont.
Speaking impatiently to the person on the other end: "How many tis do I have to say it, use all the resources we have! All of them! Understand?"
"Do I still need to explain how valuable Firefly is right now?"
"If another agent finds Firefly before us, do you know what that ans?"
"Relax, in the storyline, Firefly used a fake identity as an artist of our family, which ans she's not opposed to this identity!"
"We'll invite her with the most sincere attitude, make her a true artist, and pour the best resources into her. She definitely won't refuse!"
"She's just an ordinary girl who loves adventure. With such generous conditions, how could she possibly refuse?"
"I don't care, according to the storyline, she must still be in Penacony!"
"Unless she can transform and fly? Otherwise, how could you not find her?"
After hanging up the phone.
The female agent took a deep breath.
Sat down on the couch.
And grumbled: "These useless people…"
"Can't even find a little girl's contact information."
"How does the Family end up with so many freeloaders?"
...
Little Gui's livestream.
The storyline continues.
Returning to the Golden Hour.
The once bustling streets were now eerily empty!
Following the storyline's guidance.
They arrived at the entrance of The Reverie Hotel in the Dreamscape.
From afar, they could see the figure standing there—Sampo!
"We et again, my dear…"
"Sigh, it seems you didn't take my advice to heart… What a pity, that girl has you so captivated?"
"You're really… too blind."
Sampo showed a look of regret.
Just as Stelle was about to step forward.
Firefly quickly moved in front to block her.
Her gaze turned serious: "Be careful. I can now confirm that your friend has so issues."
"Well, well, it seems this brave lady wants to protect you. Why? Are you two that close?" Sampo teased.
"Enough with the nonsense."
"I really like your personality, darling. I admit, you're different from that little gray-haired one. Your nose is quite sharp."
"But even so, you're still lagging behind the main group. Haven't you realized it yet—the secret behind this beautiful dream that the family is hiding?"
After saying this.
Sampo turned to Stelle: "And as for you—the Trailblazer who saved the world of ice and snow… Ah, how much did that Sampo guy exaggerate in the story of Jarilo-? Never mind, believing him was my problem…"
"I'm really, really disappointed in you."
As his voice faded.
Both Stelle and Firefly suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.
Pink petals began to float around them.
Behind them.
Red goldfish slowly swam into view.
At this mont.
It truly felt like they were in a dream!
And now, "Sampo's" eyes glowed with an eerie light.
He smirked mischievously: "Sorry about this."
"Please take a little nap."
"In the real Dreamscape."
The latter part of his voice had already shifted to a feminine tone.
He approached Stelle.
Reached out.
And with a gentle flick.
Stelle slowly lost consciousness.
Collapsing next to Firefly.
Before completely blacking out.
She saw that "Sampo" had completely transford into a red-haired girl.
...
"Is Sampo going through puberty?"
"So Sampo is a cross-dresser!"
"?"
"What are you looking at?"
"Miss Sparkle!"
"I knew sothing was off! So Sampo was really soone in disguise!"
"It seems that guy's warning earlier was right…"
"Old Sampo might be slick and cunning, but he wouldn't stoop this low."
"So Sampo being a Masked Fool is confird."
"Sparkle is this strong? She knocked out and Firefly so easily?"
"She's really beautiful."
...
"What's Sparkle's purpose for knocking out?"
"Is she here to break and Firefly apart?"
Guinaifen wondered.
As the scene shifted.
After waking up.
She found herself in an empty guest room.
At the sa ti.
She received a ssage from the Astral Express Crew.
[Hiko: It seems it's ti to return to reality.]
[Hiko: et in my room.]
Stelle replied: [Ran into a bit of trouble…]
But a prompt appeared below—
[(ssage failed to send)]
"Looks like I'll have to explore this strange place first."
"This doesn't seem like the hotel we checked into…"
Guinaifen casually browsed the room.
It looked sowhat like an office.
Not bad!
It even resembled her own live-streaming room!
So mory fragnts floated in the air.
Filling the room with an eerie blue glow.
The background music was sowhat similar to "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."
But it was mixed with so dissonant harmonies.
Before even starting to explore.
Guinaifen already had goosebumps!
A sense of strangeness washed over her.
Upon seeing the distorted clock on the wall and the cold light emanating from outside…
This feeling intensified!
And just as she was investigating the room.
On the wall,
On the bookshelf,
In the air,
Subtitles unexpectedly appeared.
As one drew closer, the voice of a young boy could be heard.
"Mikhail, are you in there?"
"Mikhail, where have you gone?"
"So quiet... Only the ticking of the clock..."
"Tick... tock... tick..."
Guinaifen couldn't help but shiver.
"Why does this place feel so eerie and scary...?"
"Another hotel layout."
"Wow, the imrsion is really at its peak now..."
...
Astral Express.
Upon seeing the na "Mikhail" appear in the room,
The Astral Express Crew imdiately perked up!
The na of a forr Naless!
It has appeared again!
Pom-Pom was especially excited!
Their big eyes were glued to the live broadcast screen.
As if they wished they could jump right in.
"Finally, finally, are we going to get to the part about Mikhail, Pom-Pom?"
However,
Little Gui was being a bit cautious.
After investigating the room for a while,
She seed to be affected by the eerie atmosphere and was hesitant to venture out for the ti being.
Seeing this,
Everyone exchanged glances,
And finally looked at Old Yang.
Old Yang nodded.
With a flick of his small hand,
He gifted five super Starskiffs,
Ten Diting storms,
And twenty Astral Expresses.
Under the shower of these generous gifts, Little Gui was bound to gain the courage bestowed by the Astral Express Crew!
Sure enough,
After receiving the continuous stream of gifts,
Little Gui's eyes lit up!
Her previous hesitation and doubt were completely wiped away!
"Thank you!... Uh... [An ordinary animation producer] for the gifts!!!"
"The animation producer boss is too kind!"
"Sending so much at once, how can I, Little Gui, accept it so easily!"
"Oh oh oh, you want to push the plot forward, right?"
"No problem, no problem!"
"Whether it's a dragon's den or a tiger's lair ahead, I, Little Gui, will bravely Trailblaze through it!"
Seeing the excited and seemingly transford Guinaifen,
March 7th couldn't help but tease, "Little Gui... you really understand Trailblazing...".
