Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"I think there's no need for anyone to worry. I just need some time to check the engine. Please calm down."

Dan Heng's gaze remained calm:

"It's okay, we can face any crisis together."

After Walter got busy, the rest of the passengers dispersed to rest on the train.

Yinzhi came to Yan Huan's side and sighed:

"Mr. Yan Huan, have you noticed?"

"Everyone seems to have become negative..."

Ji Zi sat down next to Yan Huan and said with a faint smile:

"Trains always encounter various difficulties during their development, and this is not the first time."

"In the foreseeable future... I have no doubt that many similar things will happen, but we will not stop exploring."

"This is also the meaning of pioneering... We must all face the challenges."

"It is through this process that everyone gains experience and grows."

On the other side, Pam, March 7th, and Villette were also gathered together.

Villette frowned and said:

"Personal pursuits? I don't even have that!"

"I'm so busy with work every day that I completely forget about it."

"Maybe the company makes me immune to hallucinations...?"

"Anyway, I haven't had any major hallucinations so far."

Villette said again, filled with grief and indignation:

"How could such a bizarre thing happen! I've been swallowed by a cave for the second time... Is this my fate?"

Pam was also very anxious:

"We need to get out of the true stinging insect's stomach quickly! Pam, Pam doesn't want the train to get hurt at all...!"

"Calm down, everyone...!" March 7th didn't know what to say.

Yinzhi walked to the potted plant next to the three of them, picked it up, and comforted it:

Please do not worry.

"Allow me to say a final goodbye to the bonsai."

"Just like meeting you all, being able to make friends with so many lives on this train and discuss the path to pure beauty with everyone, I would die without regret!"

March 7th doesn't understand:

"You've picked up the potted plant again... How did you manage to develop such a deep friendship with it in such a short time?"

"Although I do worry about the toys in the room..."

Pam clenched her little fists and mustered her courage to say:

"The train is our home, and we face everything together!"

"Fortunately, both March passenger and Yan Huan passenger came back... They didn't go out and have fun, so we can all be buried together. Although... although it was a bit unfortunate."

Villette was very dejected:

"I never imagined that the first time I met you would be goodbye."

"Alas, it seems there's nothing I can do now. I, Villett, will use my last moments to listen to your stories about the train..."

"Don't talk nonsense, how could it be goodbye!" Pam looked out the window at the space station platform:

“But by this point, you’ve finally started to feel attached to the train, and Pam is very pleased!”

"Let Pam think about where to begin the story..."

Villette sighed:

"You'll develop feelings for each other after spending so much time together, right... But let's stop for a moment! Even though I say that, the train can still make one last effort, right?!"

Silver Branch looked at Vilit and said in a deep voice:

“Villit, I will escort you to your destination; a knight keeps his promise.”

Villette was about to cry:

"Don't think I'll be moved by saying things like that! I'm notoriously heartless! Waaaaah..."

March 7th quickly comforted him:

"Alright, everyone, cheer up! Especially in times like these, we need to spread confidence even more!"

Walter quickly returned, dodging the delivery robot that appeared out of nowhere, and said in a deep voice:

"I have completed the inspection of the train engine. Although the jump device cannot be activated immediately, temporary acceleration should be possible."

Chapter 571 Let Me Sacrifice

"If there are no strong objections from any of you, we will begin preparations..."

"Mr. Walter, please wait a moment."

Silver Branch interrupted Walter, saying in a deep voice:

"I'm sorry, but I suddenly had an idea that might help you all resolve this crisis."

"During the train preparation period, I hope to have the opportunity to discuss things with Mr. Yan Huan alone."

On March 7th, her delicate brows furrowed slightly.

"You! At a time like this, can't you just say what you mean?"

Silver Branch shook her head:

"If this idea were presented in public, it would be immediately rejected by you all."

"But as a knight, I must help the train solve its problems."

Walter stared at the silver branch and said in a deep voice:

"It seems you have some plans, although I'm not familiar with the traditions of the Pure Knights..."

After the others stepped aside, Yinzhi walked over to Yan Huan and sat down.

“Mr. Yan Huan, I apologize for my abruptness. It was very strange that I suddenly requested to speak with you alone.”

"In fact, I have a strong feeling... This is a battle that I, as a pure knight, must face!"

"???" Yan Huan, who was lying on the sofa eating pizza, looked completely bewildered, but still asked:

"What do you want to do?"

Yinzhi revealed a determined look:

“I think I can get off the train and confront the giant true stinging insect head-on—attack its stomach wall with a long spear, cause it to spasm, and make the train vomit.”

Yan Huan nodded slightly and asked again:

"Your spear...? Are you sure? I heard that thing can swallow a star destroyer. Your spear is nothing more than a toothpick to it."

Silver Branch sighed:

"This is the only way now, isn't it?"

He walked to the observation window, gazing intently at the staff members gathered below, his expression grave.

"I find it hard to describe this phenomenon... but when I see certain things, I feel a sense of beauty from the bottom of my heart. It is vague and can only be perceived instinctively."

"Perhaps it's because I've been traveling alone in the Milky Way for too long that I can't understand where this feeling comes from."

"But I know that as a knight, my duty is to protect the seed containing beauty, to stand before it, and to withstand everything..."

"And now..."

Yinzhi turned around, looking at Yan Huan with an extremely serious expression:

“The Star Train is this seed. It gives me a sense of belonging, a warmth like [home]. I believe this stems from the deep friendship between you all.”

"Therefore, I vow to use my body as a shield to defend this ray of warmth, instead of living in peace and letting it in turn become a shield to protect me."

"I am willing to protect these seeds of beauty again and again, so that they may bloom into pure and crystalline flowers, to prove my devotion to Him..."

"This is something that was bound to happen on the journey called [Silver Branch]..."

"Is She... the pure and beautiful goddess Idrila?" Yan Huan pondered.

"It is what I believe in, what my destiny seeks," Silver Bough praised.

"When I was bleeding and losing my mind in battle to defend the faith of beauty, I saw His traces countless times in my unconscious state, spreading from my feet and stretching into the unknown future."

"Is that really the Star God?" Yan Huan asked.

Yinzhi shook her head: "Reason tells me no, but I hope so."

"In that old illusion, I keep running."

“The footprints He left on the muddy road sadden me more than any weeping.”

“And each time, I was just a hair’s breadth away from seeing His figure.”

"So, you're fighting to see the Pure Beauty Star Goddess?" Yan Huan asked again, still holding the pizza.

"Hmm...that's my personal reason."

"Fall down, stand up, fall down again, stand up again, countless trials, hovering between life and death, all to bring us closer to the journey that [Chunmei] once traveled."

"This... is my oath as a pure knight."

"So... why did you tell me this alone?" Yan Huan looked stunned.

"Actually, I think Danheng or Walter would be more suitable to communicate with you."

Yinzhi shook her head slightly:
