Honkai Impact: Star Railway: I'm really not a Star God!

"Ling Kong, what have you been doing all this time? You have no idea, we've been chased all over the place—"

"Alright, March, I think it's best to leave this matter to history to judge."

"What are you talking about, Star?"

Amused by the two women's bickering, he snapped his fingers in mid-air, and a ball of energy transformed into a holographic image of Bellberg.

"Look carefully, this is the upper zone, we are here, the lower zone, and the information I received is that the star core is here."

As the words were spoken from above, a red punctuation mark appeared in the upper right corner of the holographic map.

"Then let's not delay, let's set off immediately!"

Upon hearing this, March 7th, who was just about to go back to rest, immediately perked up and his energy was quickly restored.

"There's no rush. Dealing with the star core only temporarily solves the problem of Beloberg. This world needs a revolution."

"So...how did you convince them?"

After thinking for a moment, Dan Heng stretched out a hand and asked curiously.

Oleg, the leader of the Earth Fire faction, and Schwarz, the robot boss, were originally thought to take some time, but Ling Kong dealt with them so quickly.

With the idea of ​​avoiding conflict if possible, coupled with the two's polite attitude towards Ling Kong, Dan Heng found it hard to imagine what kind of spell Ling Kong had cast on them.

Why does being alone in mid-air possess such power?

Is it his special ability?

From Sambo to Schwarzkopf to Oleg... it's hard for Danheng not to suspect that Lingkong possesses a special skill that can be triggered when alone with someone.

"I have an idea. If everyone's power could be separated from the Star God as an intermediary, how powerful would the combined strength of everyone be?"

Ling Kong's words made Dan Heng's pupils shrink instantly.

He seemed to have guessed something.

The goal in the air... seems... a bit too ambitious.

"Remove the Star God? That seems like a feasible method, but—how could it possibly be done—!"

On March 7th, I racked my brains trying to understand Ling Kong's words, but found it to be a bit difficult.

What is Ling Kong saying? Without the Star God... I can't understand a word.

"Ling Kong...you mean...oppose the Star God?"

A strange feeling welled up inside Xing, the thought of fighting against the Star God... Why did it feel so familiar?

"Shh~"

He raised a finger and smiled slightly in mid-air.

"Keep your voice down, or you'll spoil the plot. As for what it is... I can only say that it will lead to a more distant future for this world."

Looking at Ling Kong, who was now acting as the riddle solver, March 7th shook his head helplessly.

It's so itchy, I feel like my brain is growing out of it.

......

After returning to the mining town with Oleg, Seele took Bronya to rest first, while Oleg left in a hurry, as if he had something very important to do.

Standing in front of the hotel, March 7th shivered.

"Ah... I feel some unpleasant memories coming flooding back..."

"Don't worry, March. We have Ling Kong here, so the underground is all our territory now!"

Xing patted March 7's shoulder with a hearty expression, as if she had conquered this land herself.

"Ling Kong, is there anything else you need to take care of? It's getting late... How should I put it? Should we go and rest, or wander around some more?"

Ling Kong shrugged and spread his hands.

"I don't care. Whether I rest or not is the same. I can travel around. After all, I haven't been running around much lately, and I haven't been drugged... I have plenty of energy."

"Hmm...that's true...So, Xing, what about you?"

"I'm tired, let's go back to our room and rest."

Dan Heng frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Just as Xing and March 7 were about to go to the hotel to rest, they stopped in their tracks, looked at each other, and then turned to look at Ling Kong.

wrong...

Did they just miss some very important information?!

They didn't seem to tell Ling Kong! They were drugged!

"Ling Kong...did you...say something?"

"Huh? What did you say?"

"Did you say... to knock me out or something...?"

"You must have misheard. You need to know that the oxygen content in the lower zones is not high. Sometimes, people are not used to it and it can easily lead to brain hypoxia, which can cause hallucinations."

Listening to Ling Kong's serious nonsense, March 7th stomped his feet in anger.

Damn it!!! Ling Kong must know something!!!

There's a traitor among us!

It was already suspicious enough that Ling Kong and Sang Bo had reconciled, but it was even more suspicious that Ling Kong knew Sang Bo had drugged them...

This is even more suspicious!

Furthermore, Sambo was even able to concoct an item that could knock out the three of them...

Now the answer... is obvious!

It was Sambo who was directing things from mid-air!

"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm truly innocent—I swear to God! When have I, Ling Kong, ever done anything to wrong you?"

The three of them exchanged a glance and nodded in unison.

Listen to that tone, isn't that the kind of lie Sambo usually uses?

Even more suspicious!

Lingkong was feeling sullen, so March 7th and Xing went back to their rooms to rest first, leaving Lingkong bewildered in the wind.

......

Nighttime, upper level.

"I've lost her... my wishes, your so-called plans... what's the point of all this?"

At her desk, Cocolia stood with a pained expression, her voice filled with sorrow...

"Abandon despair...abandon sorrow...abandon useless emotions..."

The voice of the star core still echoed, constantly influencing her.

With Bronya's departure, her inner defenses gradually crumbled, and her eyes were filled with confusion, but she gritted her teeth, unwilling to be controlled like this.

“Shut up! She’s my daughter, she’s my only one… What do you know, soulless creatures? You’ll never understand… never!”

"You haven't lost her... She's waiting to reunite with you on the other side."

The star core's words caused her pupils to gradually dilate...

"The New World..."

Yes... the new world... the world promised by the Star Core... the world that will resurrect the dead in another way... the Star Core can indeed do that...

"Rise up... Guardian... Fulfill your destiny... Fulfill a... Mother's wish."

Perhaps Bronya... still has a chance...

Her daughter.

[Well... um... I created a QQ group, although this feels familiar (I wrote about it for a long time in a book before, thinking readers wouldn't bother joining, turns out I just hadn't enabled search). Unfortunately, I'm not ready to start a Tomato group chat yet, so I only have QQ: 8587.610.92.]

Chapter 62 If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight.

Xing woke up with a start, wide awake, having had another strange dream...

Looking at the sky outside, Xing wondered whether she should get up now.

Well, the lower level has always been like this; you can only tell whether it's day or night by the clock.

Even after nightfall, the lights in the mining town remained lit, as if trying to prove something.

Even in the darkest of nights, someone will hold up a torch to light your way.

"Is this what the subterranean fire wants to do?"

Xing suddenly thought of this.

Although she felt that in reality, without lighting a fire, the lower level would be so dark that it would be pitch black.

After stretching, Xing decided to go out for a walk.

They originally thought that by striking from the air, they wouldn't have to worry about keeping watch at night or being locked up in jail while they were asleep. But lately, their dreams have been getting stranger and stranger.

This is so annoying! Can't I even get a good night's sleep?

......

"Who!? Who's there!"

Standing in front of the hotel, Bronya stared blankly at the dilapidated surroundings, but her body's instinctive alertness remained.

"Stay calm, stay calm, it's me."

Emerging from the darkness, he pinched the brim of his hat with two fingers in mid-air and bowed slightly to express his apology.

"It's you...? So it was you. Don't approach me from behind again next time. You should be glad I wasn't carrying a weapon."

"Isn't your weapon still in the clinic?"

Bronya's expression froze, and she was speechless.
