The Light Cones were introduced one by one. First was the Destruction Path Light Cone: Brighter Than the Sun, which is Dan Heng: Imbibitor Lunae's signature weapon.
The second was the Preservation Path Light Cone: She Has Already Closed Her Eyes. This one belongs to Fu Xuan.
And the third Light Cone was naturally of the Nihility Path, Imprinted Radiance. That would be Nero's signature weapon.
The first two don't need much introduction here. Let's focus on Nero's Light Cone.
The image on this Light Cone shows an incredibly dazzling explosion, one that lights up the galaxy and the depths of space.
Blinding light and high-energy jets surge outward endlessly, expanding like madness into the infinite distance. And within the explosion, Imbibitor Lunae can see a faint, barely discernible figure.
That figure has its eyes gently closed. You can't tell its gender. Only long white hair drifts in the void. Its body stretches slowly, as if dancing gracefully, like a flawless work of art under a spotlight.
"Wow, the picture on this Light Cone looks really familiar," Sushang said.
"Yeah, isn't this the scene Nero left behind above the Xianzhou after swallowing that neutron star explosion?" Fu Xuan said.
"That's right. This is exactly what was left behind from that explosion. I've heard that everyone sees a different figure within it. Maybe that's why the radiance imprinted here looks so unclear," Jimi said.
Sushang froze on the sofa for a moment, then shivered. "Honestly, this kid is seriously bold. He even dared to swallow a neutron star explosion."
"Well, at this point we have to mention a famous quote from the renowned sword immortal Nero, 'Astral projection is astral projection, death is death. You have to tell them apart,'" Fu Xuan said from the other end of the phone.
"If we apply that here, then swallowing a neutron star explosion is swallowing a neutron star explosion, and death is death. These two things also need to be distinguished clearly."
After Fu Xuan finished speaking, Nero's little avatar blinked twice, looking puzzled.
"Is there a problem? I think it makes perfect sense. Swallowing a neutron star is swallowing a neutron star, death is death. Swallowing a neutron star doesn't necessarily mean you'll die!"
Dan Heng, sitting to the side, let out a sigh. "That may be true, but people have different constitutions. The theories and results that apply to Nero don't necessarily apply to others.
"So if possible, I hope none of you try to swallow a neutron star. Because Nero might not die from it, but if an ordinary person tries it, they probably won't survive."
Jimi narrowed his eyes and complained from the side, "Where would an ordinary person even find a neutron star to eat in the first place?"
After saying that, he shook his body and continued, "Alright, now that we've introduced the new characters and the new Light Cones, next comes the long-awaited Version 1.3 banner schedule."
As Jimi's voice fell, Siberian Duck, sitting in front of the computer, straightened up a bit, her eyes widening as she stared intently at the preview screen.
That's right, the banner schedule was exactly what she had been waiting for.
Besides, in this version, whether it was Dan Heng: Imbibitor Lunae, Fu Xuan, or Nero, they were all characters she wanted to pull.
Even though she knew that in the end she would definitely resort to the power of money, at the very least she still had to put on a show right now, acting as if she were seriously planning her pulls.
After all, it made her feel a bit more justified at this moment. As for whether she would regret it after spending all that money…
She could only brush it off with a well-known saying, since I'm already here, and the money's already spent…
And it wasn't just Siberian Duck. The viewers in the livestream also became a bit more serious at this moment.
They weren't like her. Even if they spent money, they couldn't just comfort themselves with "money's already spent" so easily.
On the preview screen, Jimi began speaking again.
"First, in the first half of Version 1.3, Trailblazers can obtain the limited five-star character 'Dan Heng: Imbibitor Lunae' from the Warp 'Brilliant Rainbowfall,' and also obtain the limited five-star character 'Nero' from the Warp 'Carefree Mortal World.'"
"In the Light Cone event Warp for this phase, you can also obtain the five-star Light Cones 'Brighter Than the Sun' or 'Imprinted Radiance' from their respective Warp events."
"In the second half of Version 1.3, Trailblazers can obtain the limited five-star character 'Fu Xuan' from the character Warp 'Calculated Insight.'"
"The four-star character 'Lynx' will also join this Warp. At the same time, in the Light Cone Warp, the drop rate for the five-star Light Cone 'She Has Already Closed Her Eyes' will be increased."
"And similarly, in the second half, everyone can still obtain 'Nero' and the five-star Light Cone 'Imprinted Radiance' from 'Carefree Mortal World.'"
After finishing, Jimi paused for two seconds before continuing.
"Alright, that was a moment for everyone to think it over. You might be surprised by this banner arrangement, but I, Jimi, can say this responsibly, viewers, you heard it right."
"The 'Carefree Mortal World' banner will last throughout the entire Version 1.3.
"This is an adjustment the company made after receiving a request from Nero's Rift Factory. As for the reason…"
At this point, Jimi looked toward Nero in the guest seat, raised his wing, rubbed his bird hands together, and smiled. "I wonder if Boss Nero could explain it for us?"
Nero's little avatar nodded and said, "Of course it's for the development of Nero's Rift Factory! After all, it's time to go public now."
"Even though we have Rift creatures as our workforce, we're still short on manpower. Mainly, we lack intelligent beings to handle things like product promotion."
"These were all things Sister Tingyun told me. So she gave me this idea. She said we could use this method to attract some kind-hearted friends to come help."
"Because before, she said that putting up my standee at Evernight Pavilion could increase its customer flow. And after trying it out, the effect was indeed very noticeable. So this time, I'm listening to her again."
"Of course, even though our Nero Rift Factory keeps Rift monsters working non-stop, we won't make anyone who comes to help work for free!"
After Nero finished speaking, the screen behind him changed. Two types of tickets that were extremely appealing to Trailblazers appeared, and Jimi continued from where Nero left off,
"That means, starting from Version 1.3, after completing the Nero Rift Factory event, Trailblazers can not only exchange their performance points for 1,000 Stellar Jades, but can also additionally exchange for five Star Rail Passes and Special Star Rail Passes.
"Hehehe, Boss Nero really is generous!"
"Mm." Nero's little avatar nodded, then added, "Also, to celebrate the successful launch of Nero's Rift Factory, I'll prepare a welcome gift of 1,600 Stellar Jades for every Trailblazer… hehe… I hope all the Trailblazer brothers and sisters can stay happy even while working~"
As Nero's little avatar spoke those blessings, rainbow bubbles once again floated through the air around him.
