Damn it, something's wrong with the gacha I got.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Walter, you must have found this amusing."

Only after the boy's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor did Jing Yuan shake his head and chuckle, raising his hand to invite Walter to sit down and talk with Walter Yang.

“General, you flatter me.” Walter settled comfortably into his guest seat and nodded slightly. “Which family doesn’t have a few troublesome kids? The young people on the Star Train can be even more unruly than that.”

He said he could understand, after all, the personalities and behaviors of the few clowns on the Star Train were even more unconventional than those of General Luofu's beloved apprentice.

"With youthful spirit and unwavering demeanor, I see that Yanqing Xiaowei has a solid foundation and extraordinary bearing. Given time, he will surely become a pillar of Luofu Mountain."

Jing Yuan picked up the teapot and poured tea for each other. The rising steam blurred the deep look that flashed across his eyes: "Thank you for your kind words, sir. But what do you want to discuss with me?"

After listening, Walter's expression became more serious.

He then revealed how Huanlong, disguised as Tingyun, infiltrated Luofu and caused chaos.

Of course, all of this was told to him by Qiong from a parallel world, and naturally, he also told Jingyuan.

Jing Yuan's expression turned serious, and he pondered for a moment before saying:

“I knew that Luofu must have external enemies, because the star core could not have appeared out of thin air. Someone must have used some means to bring it into the immortal ship and infiltrate it. The internal troubles of Luofu must be the evil organization that calls itself Fengrao – the Secret of the Medicine King. But I did not expect that it was actually a Great Lord of Annihilation who was involved.”

"So General Jingyuan believes us?"

Walter countered.

"The nameless passengers on the Starry Sky Train are naturally trustworthy, and I had long suspected that the Star Core Hunter was not the mastermind. I originally intended to use the power of these nameless passengers to lure out the mastermind, but I did not expect Mr. Walter to bring me a shocking piece of news."

Jing Yuan admitted that he had never doubted the Star Train from the beginning.

Putting aside the fact that the Starry Sky Train represents the orthodox pioneering force and has countless connections, what benefit would it bring to scheme against Luofu in this way?

Furthermore, it does not align with the concept of "exploration".

Therefore, it is highly likely that another force has intervened.

As for why they didn't suspect the Star Core Hunter, the answer is obvious.

If the Star Core Hunters were truly the mastermind, they wouldn't have needed to go through all this trouble; they could have simply stirred up chaos in Luofu.

He didn't think about why the Star Core Hunter would attract the nameless passengers of the Star Train.

"So, General, what should we do next?"

Walter nodded and asked.

"Since it is Huanlong, the Great Lord of Annihilation, who is hiding in Luofu, then this general naturally cannot sit idly by and wait for death. I will contact another immortal ship to come and provide support. I also ask Walter to help restrain Huanlong and not to alert him."

Jing Yuan thought for a moment and replied.

It's really a stretch for him to handle Luofu's current troubles all by himself.

He could handle the secrets of the Medicine King of Luofu with ease if he were dealing with it alone, but now that the Great Lord of Annihilation has been added, the level of danger has increased significantly.

Even he, the General of Luofu, had to waver.

After all, the Extinction King is not to be underestimated.

"Alright, our Starry Sky Train will certainly do our best to help. However, I heard from Qiong that the true form of that illusion might be Suiyang. General, do you have any countermeasures in case of any unforeseen circumstances?"

Walter nodded slightly and then asked.

Suiyang, which has an inseparable relationship with the Immortal Boat Alliance, is a strange energy life form that feeds on the emotions and memories of living beings.

It caused many crises, but later, under the chaos of Jianmu, Lan, who had not yet become a god, merged with Suihuang and used his power to quell the Fengrao Rebellion. Afterwards, he ascended to become a god - [Xunlie].

"The Illusionary Cloud is the essence of starlight, and its purpose is to seize the power of the Jianmu tree. I will have the Ten Kings' Division take the [Hidden Moon Gourd] with them, and when the time is right, they can make their move to capture it."

"If that's the case, then that would be wonderful."

Immediately afterward, Walter and Jingyuan discussed the remaining details of their operation before leaving to meet up with Chen Bai and the others.

Meanwhile, Kafka, who was leisurely sipping tea while waiting for the train crew to catch her somewhere, suddenly looked up.

A holographic projection appeared before my eyes.

The newcomer had silver-gray hair, rabbit-ear-shaped accessories, goggles, and black hair clips. He was also wearing a white jacket with a fur collar that revealed his navel, giving him a cool look.

"Why are you here, Silver Wolf?" Kafka put down her teacup.

"I've brought you the new script." Silver Wolf manipulated his [Ether Editor] and tossed the so-called new script to Kafka.

"A new script?"

Kafka's gaze lingered on the future, but after she finished reading the script, the faint smile on her lips did not fade.

"I never expected that another pioneer from a parallel world would be summoned here. What an unexpected start. Did Elio say anything about that stranger named Chen Bai?"

Kafka put down her script and picked up her teacup again to take a sip.

Testimonials

It's about to be released! Thank you for your support!

Originally, we planned to release it on New Year's Day to time it, but after consulting with the editor, we learned that Hedgehog Cat is always released on Fridays. So after updating today, it will be officially released tomorrow!

Whether you like this book or not, thank you for following along.

This is my first time writing a book on Hedgehog, so please point out any mistakes.

I started writing this book after playing the game "Honkai Impact 3rd" and reading other fanfiction, but many authors backed out, so I decided to write one myself.

However, I don't usually watch the plot when I play games, and I mostly researched when writing this book. Please point out any mistakes.

Of course, if you don't like certain critics, you are free to leave and read other books. Everyone has a different style and writing style, and no one is forcing you.

And I also hate these kinds of trolls. If you say my book is worthless, then I have to ask you, what are you? Flies?

Of course, whether it's Hedgehog Cat or other novel platforms, there's no shortage of trolls and paid commenters, which greatly affects the reading experience.

Finally, no matter what, thank you again for your support!

And then, Happy New Year! Wishing everyone a bright future in 2026, and may all your wishes come true, and may you count money until your hands ache!

Chapter 58 No need, I'm here.

"Elio said he himself couldn't see the variable clearly, but overall the future outcome is good, just a bit turbulent."

Silver Wolf's projection took out a piece of chewing gum and started blowing bubbles while talking.

"Ups and downs?" Kafka was a little puzzled.

“That’s right. Any scene involving that variable is, as Elio says, a tangled ball of yarn that gives rise to countless possibilities from the original script that led to the final outcome. Elio is still working on it right now. However, the script here at Immortal Boat Luofu remains largely unchanged. We can lend them a hand if necessary.”

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Silver Wolf."

Upon hearing this, Silver Wolf replied calmly, "Alright, that's all I have to say. There's still a game I haven't finished back there, so that's all."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Silver Wolf's projection disappeared in front of Kafka.

A glint flashed in Kafka's violet-like eyes.

"When the stars converge, it's time to forge a new era of glory... In that case, it's time for me to set off."

After saying that, Kafka stood up and disappeared into the crowd.

......

Meanwhile, Chen Bai and his three companions were strolling around Changletian, enjoying food, drinks, and entertainment along the way.

Especially the two raccoons, who practically ransacked the entire trash can in Changletian. If it weren't for Sanyueqi and Chen Bai stopping them, the two of them might have ended up with Uncle Yunqijun.

As the ordeal continued, Jia Tingyun's face grew increasingly dark.

What terrible things has she done?

Have the minds of this year's anonymous guests been clouded by pleasure?

Each time she caused quite a stir, her plan to disrupt Luofu and seize the Jianmu tree was repeatedly delayed.

Should we directly target these nameless guests and then rush into the Scale Abyss to seize the Jianmu Tree?

No, no, I am the Absolute Lord Illusion. If I do that, wouldn't I be no different from a brute like Star Scream?

This doesn't align with her aesthetic of destruction.

So it's better to be patient a little longer.

It's time to urge these anonymous guests to get down to business.

Just as Jia Tingyun was about to step forward to urge Chen Bai and the other three to get down to business and pursue Kafka, Walter arrived at Changletian and joined Chen Bai and the others.

Seeing this, Jia Tingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, a parent arrived.

Now there shouldn't be any problems, right?

So she stepped forward, maintaining a polite smile, and said, "Mr. Walter, you're finally back. As for Kaffa..."

She glanced at Chen Bai and his three companions who were buying snacks at a food stall somewhere.

The implication is clear: hurry up and take your kids to do some serious business, I'm not interested in playing around with you anymore!

Walter pushed up his glasses and replied calmly, "Miss Tingyun, I'm really sorry to trouble you. There are a few young people in my car who are causing a bit of trouble."

Jia Tingyun snorted coldly in his heart.

It's more than just a commotion! She can't even wipe her butt as fast as these four gentlemen!

Putting aside the incident of two abstract little gray creatures rummaging through the trash can, when we arrived at Changletian and boarded the Starship, an unnamed guest named Chen Bai suddenly went crazy and insisted on personally experiencing piloting Luofu's unique flying vehicle.

Before she could even organize her thoughts, a scene of speed and passion unfolded before her, leaving her hair, which she had carefully combed that morning, all wild and unruly.

Now she just hopes that Walter, this seemingly more mature-looking nameless stranger, will hurry up and take the four little ones to capture Kafka.

They had been wandering around Changletian for so long without seeing any sign of the Star Core Hunters, which clearly showed that these four didn't take the mission seriously.

“Mr. Walter, you are too kind. It is my duty. Since it is the order of Lord Yu Kong and General Jing Yuan, I will naturally treat you all well. But, may you, my benefactors, now set off to hunt down Kafka?”

Jia Tingyun suppressed her disgust and loathing and responded with a forced smile.

“This is not a sudden stop, Miss Yun?” Walter replied.

Jia Tingyun: "..."

What does it mean to not be in a hurry?

Did I hear that right?

“These kids didn’t get a proper rest during the pioneering work at the last stop, so let them have some fun now. Besides, the Star Core Hunter should still be in Luofu; he can’t escape.”

Jia Tingyun: "..."

Very well, after I seize the Jianmu tree, I will definitely make good use of these nameless guests.

Now we can only continue to endure it.

Therefore, Jia Tingyun could only continue to accompany him.

Just then, March 7th walked over, holding a cell phone, and said to Walter:

"Uncle Yang, I just sent a message to Danheng, but it seems like it won't send."

Chen Bai chimed in, "Mine is the same. I was going to share my experiences in Luofu in the group, but it seems I can't send it out."

Walter speculated, "The technology for long-distance communication is not very mature, or perhaps the presence of the star's core is interfering with signal transmission."

"No, I can still use the Global Social Network, and all other functions are working normally. It's just that the communication with the train is being interfered with."

As he spoke, Chen Bai directly took out his phone and showed it to Walter.

At this moment, Qiong came over and glanced at it, saying, "Don't look anymore, it must be my aunt's doing."

March 7th was immediately dumbfounded: "Auntie? Where did you get an auntie?"

Xing seemed to realize something: "You're not talking about Silver Wolf, are you?"

Qiong: "That's right, it must have been Aunt Silver Wolf who made the move."

Walter: "It's very likely that little hacker from Star Core Hunter."
