Star Railway: The Last of the Grammer Riders

Chapter 153 Hell? All an Illusion

Many people have collapsed inside the Grand Theater.

Several of them were acquaintances…

Kosmo, in a state of artificial collapse, has lost half of its body and is no longer alive.

Bai Zhi's body transformed into the World Tree, protecting a few weaker individuals (Klee, Desdovia, Rin, Eden, and Blanca).
Gretchen, pierced through the body by her own lightsaber, is dead.

He was found with lacerations; his hands were torn apart and his heart was pierced, confirming his death.

Cecilia, in order to protect everyone, erected a shield, but ultimately lost her holy blood and died.

Sakura, with both legs broken, is unable to move and is in a state of death.

Sirin, who has lost one arm, is unconscious and is being protected by Bellenas.

Silly Goose, holding the Black Abyss White Flower, wearing Star Armor, died kneeling on one knee but never fell.

Hu Xiaoyao is in a state of artificial collapse, surrounded by flames and remains, and is dead.

Hua's memories have been completely burned away, leaving only an empty shell.

Kevin, in his Savior form, joins Peng Hao and Alicia in their Herrscher forms to fight against Dominix and "Taiyi".

Everyone collapsed and died, leaving only Kevin and two others still holding on.

Their anger had already overwhelmed their fear.

They all started targeting Dominic.

Dan Heng immediately assumed the stance of the Moon Drinker. He unleashed a powerful Azure Dragon's Chaos at Dominix.

March 7th also activated the power of the six phases of ice within him, releasing a large area of ​​ice that froze Dominix.

The flaming spear in Xing's hand also changed shape.

Just like before with Belloborg, it was disassembled into a weapon resembling the Heavenly Fire Greatsword.

He slashed directly at Dominic.

Kiana, Raiden Mei, and Bronya team up once again.

Kevin, Peng Hao, and Alicia face off against "Taiyi".

At the same time, Xiao Shi angrily used his power of consciousness to control "Taiyi" and Dominix, and finally stopped with tears of blood.

Gongsun Ming also used the Fool's Mask to forcibly control "Taiyi".

However, because the opponent is a Star God, even if the Star God who was resurrected after dying is much weaker than before, he is still a Star God.

It can only control it for a second or less at most.

Although a second is very short, it was enough for the group.

Jiang Tianxing handed the sleeping Naxida to Bai Zhi, who had transformed into the World Tree, and then initiated a deliberate collapse, descending onto the battlefield in his final form. Without any rashness, he attacked "Taiyi," tearing off its hand in one swift motion.

Everyone instantly unleashed their strongest attack, aimed directly at "Taiyi".

Ultimately, "Taiyi" was completely killed by the massive attack.

Dominic was eventually defeated by the combined attacks of the group.

This battle, which resembled a scene from hell, has finally come to an end.

And the price of victory…

It is also very heavy.

Of the 43 people who boarded the train, only about 30 remain.

The group returned to the train in sorrow, but Pam was nowhere to be seen.

Only Qianjie remained in the car, along with Mebius, who was seriously injured and noticeably smaller.

In addition, there are the severed limbs of May and Wilvey in a state of artificial collapse.

Just as the group was fighting against "Taiyi" and Dominix in the dream.

The swarm of insects attacked the train.

Ultimately, Thousand Calamity burned almost half of the carriages, while Mebius fought the swarm with a life-or-death strategy.

May and Wilwick, outnumbered, were eventually devoured.

Kevin was devastated when he saw May's severed limbs.

Seeing everyone dead or injured, Peng Hao's expression didn't look good either.

Seeing the tragedy unfold before her eyes once again, Xing felt extremely resentful.

I resent my own powerlessness.

He was furious that he couldn't save everyone.

This anger drew a glance from "Lan".

Thus, the star was destined to go on a hunting expedition.

Can…

She wasn't happy.

So what if one is burdened with multiple destinies?

He still couldn't save his own partner.

"You don't like this ending either... right?" a voice rang out at that moment.

Xing looked around and realized that it wasn't the people around him who were speaking.

After looking around, they finally found it...

one person…

She was the Memory Provider, Black Swan, whom Xing had encountered in an accident in Pinocchio. "Don't you think... there's something... a little strange about this story?" Black Swan continued.

Hearing what the black swan said, Xing suddenly remembered something...

Details she hadn't thought about carefully before.

There are fewer people here.

Black Tower, the cowboy Dan Heng mentioned, Padofelis, Uncle Yang, and Himeko didn't even see the self-destructing beings that Dan Heng had mentioned coming to the train, nor the black swan in front of them, on the battlefield.

Even Ye Tianyu and Liu Ying disappeared in the final battle.

In fact, there were far fewer people involved in this battle.

The Masked Fool, the Sea Patrol Knight, the Company, the Self-Destructor, and the Flowing Light Memory Court did not appear.

And most importantly…

Pam is not on the train now!
You should know that he stayed at Liumeng Reef to spend more time with the three former nameless guests.

It's much safer there than other places.

“Do you remember now? Many people are missing from this story, and where do you think they are? And where are you... us?” the Black Swan prompted.

“So that’s how it is… We… We’ve been in a dream all along… We haven’t woken up yet.” Xing then revealed the answer to everything.

"This... is a memory you 'lost' before entering this deep dream. After you read it, you will know some things." The Black Swan said, handing a playing card with a star illustration to Star.

Xing crushed it, and the memory was absorbed into her mind.

She remembered.

At that time, they did not actually enter Liumeng Reef, but instead entered a deep dream.

The watch boy who had always followed her didn't come either.

There they found the "legacy" left by the watchmaker... (which they didn't yet know was it).
It's a letter.

The letter was addressed to a child named 'Misha'.

but…

Who is Misha?

Could it be Mikhail's child?
So the group began searching for a child named Misha.

But no one is seen in this deep dream.

Then the group encountered "What is Heading Towards Death," which is actually Mianmian.

He then sent them into the Dream Reef.

But this does not include Gongsun Ming.

Because he was indeed sent in by Naxida and Xiaoshi.

However, after being brought in, the dreamer discovered it and blocked the passage.

Ultimately, the others could only be sent into the deepest dream realms to find a solution.

However, the dreamer blocked the entrance.

This resulted in everyone losing their memories of the deep dream when they later arrived at Liumeng Reef.

The second layer of the dream begins at this point.

"So...it was all fake..." Xing breathed a sigh of relief after learning the truth.

“Now that you remember… hurry up and wake up in reality. But before that… you must find the watchmaker’s ‘legacy.’ Only by finding him can you truly resolve these multiple dreams,” the Black Swan warned.

Then Xing felt as if she were falling.

The scenes keep changing: a train, a golden moment, a deep dream, a dream reef, and waking up facing an unfamiliar ceiling.

Xing rubbed her head; the feeling of constantly falling was really unpleasant.

I don't want to experience it again.

"Oh? You're awake? You're the seventh to wake up," Gallagher's voice came through. "Want a drink?"

"Gallach, she's a patient who just woke up, don't force her to drink," said a cute little boy with light blue hair.

"Misha, I do know these things. This is just ordinary milk and juice. It's not alcohol. It has a refreshing effect. So, little Star Core girl, what kind of dreams did you have?"

“It’s a scene from hell. There are corpses everywhere…” Xing replied.

“Hmph, doesn’t sound like anything good,” Gallagher replied.

“Where are the others? Where did they go?” Xing asked.

“Oh, they were sent back to the Golden Age by Mist after they woke up,” Gallagher said. “Oh, you’ve met Mist before, she’s the little guy who brought you to Dream Reef.”

"Little...little guy?" Xing thought of Mianmian's appearance and realized that she couldn't compare to Xiaozuo.

"Wait... your name is... Misha?" Xing belatedly noticed Gallagher's address to the little boy next to him and asked.

“Yes, my name is Misha, what’s wrong?” Misha asked, puzzled.

“That’s you! Before we came to Dream Reef…” Xing slowly recounted what had happened before they arrived at Dream Reef.

"You mean... there's a letter left for me in my deepest dreams?" Misha asked back.

“Well, if your name really is Misha, and there’s no other Misha here, then it’s you,” Xing said.

While the group was talking...

The others who were still asleep gradually woke up.

　How did you feel about this chapter? Did it give you a feeling of betrayal? Hehe…
