Star Railway: The Last of the Grammer Riders

Chapter 175 Unexpected Situation! The Arrival of the Iron Tomb!

As the Harmonious Music Festival was being held as scheduled…

Pinocogniz welcomed an uninvited guest.

Well... I can't really call them guests...

Rather, they are invaders.

However, no one knew of His arrival…

Well... it's not that nobody knows.

The messenger, the dream master, and the bell, among others, sensed the other's presence.

The former was somewhat curious but felt that the other party couldn't cause any trouble.

(Hilarious! There are at least three envoys here, and even two star gods watching. Who would go looking for trouble? They'd have a death wish!)

The dreamer also viewed it from the above perspective.

Ling, on the other hand, was curious about the other person's arrival, but nothing was as interesting as participating in the Harmonious Music Festival with her sister. Anyway, those big shots would handle it.

It has no effect on her, a mere Herrscher of Corruption.

Of course, there wasn't just one Herrscher of Corruption present!

Another one secretly boarded the train by hiding inside Alicia's body. (Although it was just a clone with limited power.)

Pam: There are passengers who evaded fares, Pam!

After sensing the strange data stream, Little Erosion stealthily crept over.

But then they encountered a gigantic... indescribable... creature? Or perhaps that so-called mechanical life form?

Only upon closer inspection could the small erosion be confirmed…

That thing is actually a data entity that is similar to its current form.

However, Xiao Erosion could sense that the opponent was much stronger than himself.

I'm afraid that the moment I begin to invade, my opponent will notice and I'll be killed in retaliation...

So she only peeked for a short while before leaving.

After all, they couldn't afford to offend the other party; if they did, wouldn't they be doomed?
And she had a feeling…

The other party definitely has ill intentions.

Now she has to go back to Alicia or go find that nasty guy…

When Little Erosion returned to the Grand Theater, he didn't see the two of them, but he happened to catch Eden's performance.

After thinking it over for a moment, he slipped away to the backstage area of ​​the theater.

Then I saw Ai Li and Peng Hao seemingly making some preparations.

Seemingly because there weren't many people backstage, Ellie unceremoniously lay down on Peng Hao.

Peng Hao didn't stop Ai Li from playing with his horn.

Seeing this, Little Erosion became genuinely anxious.

They directly pulled Ai Li off Peng Hao.

"Huh? Little Erosion, what are you doing here?" Ellie was shocked to see Little Erosion here. She thought Little Erosion was still in Paradise.

"What? Can't I be here?" Little Erosion, her face somewhat displeased, wrapped her arms around Ellie's waist and glared angrily at Peng Hao.

Seeing Xiao Qing's state, Peng Hao felt somewhat helpless.

"Herrscher of Corruption, stop fooling around. What do you want with us?" Peng Hao looked speechlessly at the little Herrscher of Corruption who was holding the helpless-looking Alice.

Only then did Little Erosion remember the purpose of its visit.

"Ahem... It's like this. Just now I..." Little Erosion released Ellie and explained to the two of them what she had just seen.

As she spoke, Ellie held Little Erosion in her arms.

Although still a little shy, Little Erosion continued to talk about everything she had seen until she finished and then lay limply on Ellie's body.

Afterwards, Eden, Kevin, and Ye Tianyu returned to the lounge and found Little Erosion lying in Ellie's arms. It seemed that Ellie's actions had burned out her CPU, or rather...

Allie had completely ruined him. Just then, Robin emerged from his dressing room.

Seeing this scene was somewhat unexpected.

Miss Ellie is ravaging another Miss Ellie who looks like she's faded.

And the faded Miss Ellie lay in Miss Ellie's arms, her body as if it had lost its bones.

Then she looked at Eden and then at Peng Hao.

I never expected that it would be Miss Airi who started the harem...

But thinking about it, it makes sense...

After all, Miss Ellie was very charming and approachable, making people willing to trust her; even she almost fell for her.

"Alright, can you two stop being so lovey-dovey? Robin, you can forget about it too. I also know about what Little Erosion said. But before that, I'd like to hear your thoughts," Ye Tianyu said, stopping everyone's wandering thoughts.

"Why don't you just take care of Him directly? With your strength, wouldn't it be easy to slaughter Him?" Little Erosion replied.

“Although I am not clear about the strength of you all, according to this… Miss Ellie’s description, what she saw should be the ‘Destruction’ Envoy of the ‘Destruction’ faction—Iron Tomb.” Robin expressed his opinion.

"Yes, just as the robin said, it is indeed the Iron Tomb." Ye Tianyu agreed with the robin's opinion.

“Mr. Tianyu, if it really is the Iron Tomb… then Pinocchio’s dream is extremely dangerous right now!” Robin said nervously.

"What? Robin, you don't believe in the power of harmony?" Ye Tianyu said with a slight joke.

"That's not the case, sir. According to the information the company is sharing globally, the Iron Tomb is essentially a 'virus' that corrodes all technological creations, including the Dream Pool. Once the Dream Pool malfunctions, visitors will lose protection in their dreams, and if they die..."

“Then you’ll never wake up again, right?” Peng Hao continued.

“Yes,” the robin agreed.

"I have two pieces of good news and one piece of bad news. Which would you like to hear first?" Ye Tianyu said with his usual calm and collected expression.

Everyone was stunned by Ye Tianyu's words.

Or rather, the robin was stunned.

Because the others present probably understood what Ye Tianyu was going to say.

It's nothing more than...

There were two Heralds of Erosion and two Heralds of the End present, who were definitely capable of fighting against the Iron Tomb.

"Well... let's start with the bad news." The robin looked at the group's expressions returning to normal, somewhat unsure of what was going on, but guessing they might know something, so he asked.

"The bad news is that the Iron Tomb has indeed arrived in Pinocene, and the original body that came is much stronger than the ones the company has observed in the past. Some of the Dream Pools have already been eroded."

The robin's heart skipped a beat when it heard the news.

"The good news is that, thanks to the Herrscher of Corruption and the power of 'Harmony' and 'Order' within Pinocchio, the Iron Tomb cannot achieve deeper corruption for the time being. Another point is... the current combat power within Pinocchio is enough to overwhelm the opponent. However, very few can actually harm Him, such as Faded Ellie, Lady Black Tower, or Lady Yomi in front of you."

The robin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the problem could be solved.

Although it's unclear what the so-called Herrscher of Corruption is, the title itself suggests that the being possesses abilities similar to those of the Iron Tomb. And the faded Miss Aili before them is that so-called Herrscher of Corruption.

Upon seeing the other bird again, the robin's eyes were filled with respect.

This made Little Erosion a little shy.

After all, in a true sense, it wasn't her who made the move.

It was that senior, Suzu.

“But I don’t think Lady Black Tower and that Miss Yellow Springs can act rashly, right?” Ellie asked at this moment. “After all, one is an envoy known throughout almost the entire world, and the other… if she were to make a move, even the dream world would probably collapse, right?”

"Well, the Black Tower can't make a move. If it does, there's a risk of making mistakes. Also, the Intelligence Commander's strength is more about technology, and their weapons are easily possessed by the enemy. If Huang Quan makes a move, it will cause Pinocchio's memory to become disordered. In addition, the Iron Tomb has now eroded part of the Dream Pool. If someone in the eroded Dream Pool dies in their dream, they will also suffer brain death in reality," Ye Tianyu explained.

"So...we'll have to rely on Little Erosion this time?" Ellie said, looking at Little Erosion lying on top of her.

"That's absolutely impossible. I'm just an avatar right now. I can't beat that big guy!" Little Erosion refused.

"Little Erosion, you have to believe in yourself! Don't forget, we're here for you," Ellie comforted her.

Although Little Erosion was still a little nervous, her expression relaxed considerably after hearing Alicia's gentle words.

She now feels incredibly strong!
