When the seven characters ["May this journey lead us to the stars"] appeared on the screen,
Guinaifen had a feeling.
This ti, the main questline should really be over.
Just as she was about to open a web page to search for Robin's new song,
On the interface,
A new scene and voice appeared once again!
This ti,
It was a familiar face!
"Glad to hear your voice again. Congratulations on becoming the biggest behind-the-scenes winner of this grand event."
This was...
Jade's voice!
Although her role in the previous storyline wasn't extensive, her voice left a deep impression!
Guinaifen's raised hand had to be lowered again.
Once more!
Just when she thought it was over, sothing new erged!
Three tis, three tis!
How many more twists are there in this plot? Bring them all out, and I'll watch them all at once!
It seems that this ti, the final blow cos from the corporate forces.
The scene shifts.
Inside a hotel room.
The person currently in a remote communication with Jade is Aventurine.
Aventurine: "You called just to tease ?"
"Not at all, I'm just marveling at how you once again didn't lose. Not only did you venture alone into the wolf's den and uncover the truth of Dreamflux Reef, but you also managed to escape unscathed with the help of that Knight of Beauty…"
"Oh, and that recording you received from your Trailblaze friend—it's now the most valuable chip on this gambling table."
"However, as the price for winning all this… losing a Cornerstone is still too costly. Diamond just called a eting, a eting about you."
Aventurine's eyes narrowed slightly as he calmly said, "As expected. So, is Diamond planning to demote or kick out of the Ten Stonehearts altogether?"
Inside the corporate spaceship.
Aventurine was intently following this plot!
It concerned his future!
At the end of the Penacony main storyline, Yu Ling actually didn't forget to address his situation—what a rare occurrence!
Beside him.
Topaz showed a look of keen interest.
In the ga's storyline, she had been demoted from P45 to P44 due to the failure of a debt collection project.
But in reality,
thanks to the popularity of Honkai: Star Rail.
After watching the Belobog storyline, Topaz imdiately proposed a joint tourism planet developnt project with Belobog to the company.
Although the planet wasn't fully brought under the company's control, it was still a significant project that brought in a massive cash flow.
So, in fact,
she not only avoided demotion but was even rewarded for it!
This was seizing the opportunity brought by Honkai: Star Rail!
Now,
this opportunity falls to Aventurine.
The situation in Penacony is currently complex.
The storyline also hints that there are still other secrets hidden in this place.
Plus, with all players in the universe now focused here.
Securing this place might be even more challenging than in the ga.
But if approached from a different angle, perhaps… even greater wealth could be created.
It all depends on how Aventurine seizes this opportunity!
Continuing to follow the plot.
"Such a rare opportunity, why not take a gamble?" Jade said with an eager tone.
"Hmph, fine. Then I'll bet—he's going to promote to P46, right?"
"Mm, and what are you going to wager?"
Aventurine smiled: "Real or fake? I don't want to pawn anything to you, lest I get completely devoured."
"But if it's just for fun, then let's do it like the first ti we t—I'll wager my life, madam."
...
"Just for Fun"
"Betting his life? Feels like a sure win!"
"Aventurine has never lost a life bet."
"Wow, you guys in the company play this big?"
"This is it, this is it, this is the company!"
"Opponent: Let's play small today, just bet so Credits. Aventurine: I'll bet my life."
"Early congratulations to Director Aventurine on his promotion!"
"Aventurine! My good brother, stop gambling! Quickly switch to being a dance strear, just perform 'Sleepless Night' live every day, and you'll definitely blow up!"
...
On the other end of the phone, Jade remained calm and composed.
"Interesting. But since it's Diamond's decision, no one could have guessed the outco in advance."
"I'm on my way to Penacony. Once the remaining matters are settled, we'll return to Pier Point together and await the reveal."
Aventurine: "Sounds like there's nothing for to do in the short term. Does that an I can enjoy my vacation?"
"Leave it to and Topaz, kid. Thanks to you, the company's arrangents were completed the mont the Jade Stone was delivered to the family's stronghold."
Jade's tone deepened slightly,
"The seeds we planted have already taken root and sprouted, and now... it's ti for the harvest."
At that mont.
Aventurine suddenly let out a sound of confusion.
He looked toward the room's door.
"...Huh?"
Sure enough,
The sound of approaching footsteps and the door opening soon followed!
"Let's end it here for now. It seems we have a guest..."
After hanging up the call.
The uninvited guest walked in.
Cowboy boots clacked against the floor.
The newcor stepped in front of Aventurine.
Aventurine shook his head: "Oh? Today's full of surprises. A Galaxy Ranger and wanted criminal actually delivered himself to my doorstep—"
"—And even took out two company employees right under the company fleet's nose. Do you know what that ans?"
Boothill's eyes widened.
As soon as he spoke, the aura of a seasoned veteran erged!
"Screw your Woobaboos, I just put them to sleep for a bit. Quit threatening with that crap. Besides, I've taken out more company dogs than the surplus value you've squeezed out. I don't mind a few more zeros on my wanted poster..."
"I have a question for you. Be honest, or I'll blow your brains out right now—"
With that,
Boothill directly pulled out his revolver.
The barrel was aid straight at Aventurine!
The live chat exploded with activity!
...
"Boothill, what are you doing!"
"Aventurine's expression... it's like three question marks are about to pop up on his forehead."
"Completely caught Aventurine off guard."
"Aventurine: Feeling harassed... not sure."
"I'm already laughing."
"The atmosphere was so serious, but Boothill's shout just made lose it..."
"Ten steps, one love."
"A gun that's been pointed at the Ten Stonehearts, an Emanator of Nihility, and the Vidyadhara High Elder [facepalm]"
...
After a brief standoff.
Boothill gritted his teeth and asked, "Tell ... where is Osvaldo Schneider (Head of the Marketing Developnt Departnt)?"
After he asked this question.
The screen slowly darkened.
The words "To Be Continued" appeared.
[In Our Ti, and on the eighth day... the mission was completed]
Although the mission was over.
The final scene sparked heated discussions!
Earlier, during Aventurine's storyline.
In the live stream,
a knowledgeable viewer had explained the atrocities committed by the Marketing Developnt Departnt.
Now,
with the ntion of this na.
Another expert imdiately chid in with an explanation in the chat!
...
"The suffering of Aventurine's people is also tied to Osvaldo. In fact, you could say there's a blood feud between them!"
"Here's the explanation—"
"On Kakavasha's birthday, known as the Day of Kakavasha, the Avgin anticipated that the Katika would launch a surprise attack during the celebration. However, this ti they had the company's assistance, so they decided to fight the Katika to the death."
"Kakavasha's sister and the tribe hoped that Kakavasha, the child blessed by the Earth Mother, would survive, so they did not let him participate in the battle."
"Yet, the result was... the second Katika-Avgin extinction incident still occurred!"
"Many Avgin, including Kakavasha's sister, were slaughtered by the Katika, and the company did not provide the promised aid during the incident."
"The company departnt responsible for the Preservation of this planet at the ti was the Marketing Developnt Departnt."
"Even so ga-related materials hinted that this extinction incident was orchestrated behind the scenes by the Marketing Developnt Departnt."
"What?"
"Thanks for the info, boss!"
"Damn it! I knew the Marketing Developnt Departnt was no good!"
"The Strategic Investnt Departnt and the Marketing Developnt Departnt are also sworn enemies!"
"The Strategic Investnt Departnt is still the best! The Ten Hearts care for each other like family! Even the Cornerstone can be trusted!"
"Allies, they are allies!"
"Aventurine: You should've said so earlier, bro. We could team up and take them down together!"
