High-end ingredients often use the simplest cooking methods.
Tea is no exception.
Tea brewed with water from the Scalegorge Waterscape often amplifies the fragrance of the leaves, not only refreshing the mind but also leaving an endless, lingering aftertaste.
But this business water clearly has a bit more of a technological flavor.
Dan Heng felt a bit of regret.
He had specifically brought the premium tea leaves he bought on the Luofu for this viewing, and it was truly a waste.
At this moment,
March 7th's head leaned over from the side.
She asked:
"Dan Heng, is this your first time watching a live screening?"
"Why aren't you nervous at all?"
Dan Heng shook his head.
He said calmly: "To me, this place is no different from the Data Bank."
"The noise and chaos outside are just distractions. March, you still have a lot to learn."
March 7th pouted, feeling a bit deflated.
Even though he's the same age as me, he talks like an old scholar.
Meanwhile.
In the story, Dan Heng was also making his move.
"No need to rush to give an answer."
"Becoming a Nameless means you no longer cling to the past but choose to Trailblaze into the future."
Dan Heng smiled slightly upon seeing his own words.
Indeed,
his lines were always the most serious.
His performance in the story could also be described as steady and solid.
Unlike little March and Stelle, who often said shocking things.
The story also frequently had "iconic moments,"
which later became memes…
Dan Heng's calmness stemmed from a special confidence he had in himself.
A straight body fears no slanting shadow!
Even Yu Ling cannot create something out of nothing.
So, there's no need to worry at all.
Let's continue watching the story.
...
March 7th: "Rather than focusing on yourself, you love exploring the world more."
Welt: "You're about to leave the familiar life behind and embark on an adventure into the unknown world."
Himeko: "No longer yearning for the ground beneath your feet, but instead, you see the distant stars as your homeland."
Pom-Pom: "And most importantly—becoming a Nameless means that the responsibilities you'll bear in the future far outweigh the rewards."
"Trailblazer, even so, do you still wish to become a Nameless?"
[Become a Nameless]
[Do not become a Nameless]
The choice was once again placed in Stelle's hands.
March 7th, like a student whispering in class, turned her head toward Stelle.
"What are you waiting for, Big Sister?"
"Hurry up and choose to become a Nameless! Everyone's watching!"
However.
At this moment, a flash of inspiration struck Stelle!
This was a flashback to a past memory…
Back then, she had indeed chosen to become a Nameless.
But what if!
What if she chose not to become a Nameless? What kind of magnificent journey would that be?
Would Yu Ling depict this undiscovered path of life?!
Stelle felt as if she had been possessed by the Aeon of Trailblaze!
She was about to explore this unknown option!
[Do not become a Nameless]!
The scene erupted in an uproar!
"As expected of Sister Stelle!"
"She really knows how to make things entertaining!"
"Hahaha, I'd choose the same!"
"Report to the Conductor, we have a passenger with dangerous thoughts!"
"Pom-Pom, who's watching the live broadcast, clenched her fists!"
...
"Mm-hmm, since you've decided to become… what?! You actually refused!"
Pom-Pom's eyes widened instantly!
And she started sweating!
"Alright… then, passenger, if you're not going to be a Nameless, what do you want to do?"
[Join the Galaxy Rangers, prove your path through martial arts!]
[Join the Interastral Peace Corporation, get promoted and earn a raise!]
[Become one of The Riddlers, babble babble!]
Stelle's face appeared in close-up on the big screen once again!
She herself was also taken aback!
Several previous versions of the story had focused on the Galaxy Rangers.
Boothill, Rappa…
Even Acheron once claimed to be a Galaxy Ranger!
Now,
This identity had reached its peak in terms of historical reputation!
Romantic, just, unwavering until death, carefree, and freedom-loving… these were the words used to describe them!
So!
Stelle decisively chose the first option!
[Join the Galaxy Rangers, prove your path through martial arts!]
[Punch, punch, punch. Until the cheers and applause gradually turn into awe and fear, and the last being worthy of being called an enemy falls before you. The moment you raise your fists under the spotlight, you leap to become a martial arts master, suddenly comprehending the true essence of it all.]
[Total annihilation is peace.]
[The End]
???
This could actually happen!
And they even depicted the life that would result from this choice!
After a brief moment of shock,
The audience and the barrage of comments exploded!
...
"Pom-Pom: That's not what the script said!"
"Bat: Passworded (disappeared into the Gobi)"
"Is this about achieving sainthood through physical combat?"
"Fight hard! Fighting is so damn exhilarating!"
"Total annihilation is also a good ending, huh?"
"Good heavens, Nanook, the Aeon of Destruction..."
"Obtained: Nanook's Glance."
"Elio: The sky has fallen."
"The show's over, everyone can go home now."
...
Stelle clenched her fist.
Who would have thought that after joining the Galaxy Rangers, her life would take such a turn!
Just as she was lamenting.
Three options appeared before her eyes once again!
[Join the Galaxy Rangers, prove your path through martial prowess!]
[Join the Interastral Peace Corporation, climb the corporate ladder and get a raise!]
[Become one of The Riddlers, babble babble babble!]
The organizers must have used another account here!
Seamlessly connecting to the plot!
Allowing the audience to fully witness other possibilities!
Of course,
Stelle herself wanted to see it too!
Such a direct chance to peek at the script doesn't come often!
[Join the Interastral Peace Corporation, climb the corporate ladder and get a raise!]
Stelle's eyes widened!
She's been so poor!
She couldn't afford to miss a single second!
[Holding a cup of cold brew coffee with ten shots of espresso, you gaze through the glass at the dawn of Pier Point.]
[From your 5,000-square-meter office, you look down at countless employees standing on the crisscrossing escalators, rushing for money, fame, and the upcoming performance review.]
[Their worries, desires, and endless days of non-stop hustle resonate far less with you than a single number on your report.]
[You sneer: The difference between you and them is far greater than the difference between them and the Wubbaboos.]
[The End]
...
"The Wolf of Pier Point."
"Did she make it to P47?"
"My god, 5,000 square meters? An office spanning five kilometers?"
"A 5,000-square-meter office, I'd exhaust myself just commuting in and out of it."
"Wow, I'm absolutely floored!"
"The Great Trailblazer' Chronicles"
"See this flame spear? It was given by the Amber King!"
"The Eleven Stone Hearts * Pebble!"
"Good at everything, huh?"
"The Rise of the Stellaron Spirit!"
"Please, give us a tutorial!!"
