Star Railway: The story of Kaffa being born with two babies at the start shocks her.

It seems that this strange object merely simulated the events inside the Cat Tail Tavern.

Zhou Xingxing shook his head; it seemed his wish to see Mondstadt in person was not going to be fulfilled.

"Guest, your wonderful Summer Dreamy Melancholy Coral Sparkling Tea is ready. There are seats available on the second floor, and you can also sit at the bar."

Diona handed over a light blue drink with iridescent bubbles, in which a small piece of coral floated and sank.

"Thank you."

Stephen Chow picked up the glass of wine; it was quite a large glass, and it would be difficult to finish it in one go.

"I wonder if there are any people I know in this tavern."

Seeing that the first floor was full of unfamiliar NPCs, Stephen Chow took his wine glass and went up to the second floor.

But the style on the second floor seemed to change all at once.

A strange aroma filled the air, and dim light emanated from the oil lamps on the bar, barely illuminating the entire tavern.

There was no one at the bar, except for a woman sitting in front of it, leaning on one side and drinking beer.

The sight of that figure made Stephen Chow pause in surprise, then a smile appeared on his lips.

A black fur shawl and hem, paired with red external armor, and long, fiery red hair piled up.

He was all too familiar with that slightly languid figure, but he never expected to encounter him here.

Stephen Chow slowly walked forward and sat down next to him.

"You don't mind me sitting here, do you?"

"random."

The woman waved her hand dismissively, picked up her beer glass, took a big gulp, and then let out a satisfied sigh.

Feeling the gaze of the person next to her, the woman slowly turned to look at the person.

"Staring at a strange woman is not a polite thing to do."

The woman smiled and spoke slowly to Stephen Chow, but there was a hint of warning in her voice.

"Excuse my bluntness, but I think... perhaps we should get to know each other again."

Stephen Chow put down his wine glass, and in the flickering lamplight, he could finally see the face of the person in front of him.

The woman didn't speak, but just stared at Zhou Xingxing quietly, waiting for him to speak.

"Hello, Miss Murata, please allow me to introduce myself. I am the captain of the Hyperion. Or rather... I used to be."

Chapter 194 The more people, the more enjoyable the test.

Upon hearing this, Himeko's eyes flickered, and she involuntarily dropped her glass onto the table, spilling a few drops of beer.

"captain..."

Himeko wanted to reach out and touch the person's cheek, but a sudden headache made her hold her forehead. Ever since she inexplicably appeared in this space, her memory had been very vague.

Only the time spent with his students remains vividly etched in his memory.

"Himeko, are you alright?"

Seeing Himeko clutching her forehead in pain, Zhou Xingxing quickly stood up, but he didn't want to touch her, so he could only stand aside and ask anxiously.

"It's nothing... I just... forgot a lot of things. But thankfully, Captain... I still remember you."

Himeko lowered her hand and looked at Stephen Chow.

That's right, although I am also the captain of the Hyperion, I am not the first one.

Although the person in front of me did not look exactly like the mysterious captain in my memory, for some reason, I had no doubt about what he said at this moment.

"You believe it?"

Seeing that Ji Zi was alright, Zhou Xingxing sat down and asked with some surprise.

"A complete stranger called me by my last name and even mentioned the name Hyperion the moment we met. What else could I possibly doubt, Captain?"

Himeko smiled slightly at Stephen Chow, then sighed.

"But... I never expected that you, Captain, would also die..."

"puff..."

Upon hearing this, Stephen Chow couldn't help but spit out his drink.

"Um, did I say something wrong?"

Himeko felt embarrassed by Stephen Chow's reaction.

"Actually, I didn't die, but just like you are now, I've also been drawn into other worlds."

"Is that so... Ever since that incident, Captain, you disappeared. We searched for you desperately, but we couldn't find a single clue... Kiana and the others cried for a long time because of this, but we all believed that you were not dead."

Hearing this, Stephen Chow felt a pang of sadness.

At the same time, I couldn't help but curse the scriptwriter in my heart. When I first started playing, the Valkyries would call me "Captain, Captain" all the time, but later the Captain just disappeared. I was really helpless.

"What a pity... I was really curious to see how they are doing now."

Himeko couldn't help but sigh.

"They have defeated the Honkai and are doing well now."

Stephen Chow took a sip of his drink and said to Himeko.

"Is that so... As expected of my student."

Himeko chuckled upon hearing this, a proud expression on her face.

"But Captain, weren't you long gone from that world? How do you still know about this?"

"Although I am not here, I can still observe it through some means, but I can't explain the specifics very clearly. Perhaps it would be better to let a participant who experienced it firsthand tell you all about it."

"Those who experienced it firsthand... unfortunately, you can't find them in this fake world."

Himeko gave a helpless, bitter smile.

After waking up, I tried to explore this world, but unfortunately I couldn't find a way out. I also realized that this was just a fictional world, and I was just like a program in a computer.

"This is indeed a fictional world called the Simulated Universe, and I came here to test it out for the creator of this Simulated Universe."

"So, this world has an owner?"

Himeko was taken aback. She knew this world was virtual, but it was different from the real-world simulations of all the memory battlefields in Schicksal. It felt more real, but at the same time, something about it felt unreal. If she had to put it into words, it reminded her of the Sea of ​​Quanta.

"That's right, Himeko, you should be very clear about your current situation, right?"

"Yes, I know very well that I died a long time ago, in the battle against the Herrscher of the Void. Now I am just a wisp of spirit? Or soul? I don't know how to describe it."

Himeko shrugged helplessly and took another sip of her beer.

"The fragments of the Godfall Sword are currently in the hands of the master of this world, the Black Tower. Perhaps she has a way to get you out."

"Really?"

Upon hearing that she could leave, Himeko felt a surge of excitement.

Although this simulated universe is not small, it is ultimately just a virtual world. It would be best if we could go outside.

Although in his current state, he could probably only stay near the Godfall Sword, that would be enough.

Because this wisp of my soul... seems exceptionally stable.

Zhou Xingxing nodded, thinking that Ruan Mei would be arriving at the Black Tower Space Station soon, and perhaps he could ask her for help then, since she was at the forefront of the field of life research.

"Also, Himeko, an old acquaintance of yours is with me; we've been traveling together for a while now."

Stephen Chow chuckled and said.

"An old acquaintance of mine?"

Himeko was taken aback by what she heard.

"You'll see when I bring him here. Wait for me here."

"Captain...you really like to keep things in suspense."

Himeko smiled helplessly upon hearing this and promised that she would wait there.

After quickly going through the simulated universe once, Zhou Xingxing immediately exited.

"Hey, why did you cancel it? I only tested it once!"

Seeing that Zhou Xingxing had left the simulated universe on his own, Hei Ta immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.

"Don't worry, I said I'd test you, so I'll test until you feel comfortable. I'll go get someone else to test with me now, is that alright?"

Zhou Xingxing said to the black tower.

"Oh, so you're going to call someone. I thought you weren't going to test me. Go on then."

Upon hearing this, Black Tower nodded in satisfaction.

The more people who can test you, the better, as this will make the testing more efficient.

Back on the train, Walter was sitting with Bronya and Shibao, and the three of them were discussing something.

"Shi Bao, I didn't know you knew so much."

"Of course, what don't I understand?"

Bronya praised Shi Bao, while Shi Bao looked smug.

It is itself an all-powerful object finder, and with the awakening of its intellectual destiny, it has access to most of the knowledge in the universe.

"Uncle Yang, come here, come here."

Stephen Chow waved to Walter.

Seeing this, Walter got up and walked to Zhou Xingxing's side.

"what happened?"

"Uncle Yang, let me take you somewhere to meet someone."

"Meet someone?"

Walter was puzzled by Zhou Xingxing's mysterious demeanor.
