Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

Seeing this scene alone would at most evoke some sighs from Jing Yuan. What truly stirred his emotions was the memory of the Five Heroes of Yunshang raising their cups together, the once-prosperous and flourishing Luofu Mountain, which had been buried under the dust of memories accumulated over hundreds of years.

Even though the appearance of this golden-horned dragon warrior was far removed from the image of the moon-drinking lord in his memory, who was dressed in a blue-horned robe.

"I long to buy osmanthus blossoms and share wine, but it will never be the same carefree days of my youth..."

Jing Yuan slowly leaned back in his chair, shaking his head and chuckling.

It seems my mental age is really getting old; I was so emotionally volatile because of just one glance at the scene.

"General, is there something wrong with this big brother from the Star Train?" Yan Qing scratched his head in confusion.

Why was her master both surprised and laughing? In just a short while, his expression changed at least four or five times.

The problem is, how come I can't see anything wrong with it?

The six emperors were also puzzled, but Fu Xuan seemed to be deep in thought.

"Big brother from the Starry Sky Train...you certainly have a sweet tongue." Jing Yuan's brow twitched slightly. "Yan Qing, last month you borrowed tens of thousands of credits from me to buy two limited-edition flying swords, right?"

What does this have to do with being sweet-talking?

Yanqing blinked blankly, "Yes. I'll pay it back when I get my salary next month, but I'll have to trouble the general with my food and drink this month..."

Jing Yuan said decisively, "To correct your spending habits, I'll add 30% interest."

"Oh? General, you can't do this!"

The six emperors fell silent, silently thanking Yanqing for her efforts.

[Mirror Flow: Drinking Moon, it seems you're doing quite well in your new life.]

[March 7th: Huh? Who? What's this "Drinking the Moon" thing? What moon are you drinking?]

[Dan Heng: ...I am not him.]

[March 7th: ? ? ?]

Within the light screen, Xing Shen took a deep breath.

"Be careful, it might be a trap."

The wisdom and scheming of Changyeyue are far superior to those of March 7th; we must be extra careful.

Dan Heng took a step forward, putting himself in the lead: "I understand. If anything seems amiss, stay behind me."

He turned to face the giant gate.

"Three, two, one..."

The two men pressed their hands against the door and pushed it open in unison, their nerves on edge, ready to face any possible sudden attack.

Sure enough, the door didn't budge an inch, and the yellow pattern on the door turned red, symbolizing an error.

A cold, female electronic voice came from behind the mechanical door. The program, named Scepter δ-me13, said: ">>> Warning: Object does not have access rights."

Xing scratched his head, this wasn't what he expected: "What was that noise? What did I bump into?"

Dan Heng calmly replied, "It has nothing to do with you; it's the security protocol of the scepter. It proves we've come to the right place."

"Warning warning warning warning..." The electronic voice of the scepter program became increasingly urgent, eventually turning into a jarring garbled noise.

coming soon!

Dan Heng stood ready: "Prepare for the attack—"

[Star: Damn it! How dare I, the mighty Galactic Baseball Man, the Pioneer Star God, the Envoy of Pleasure, and the half-brother of the Last King, be stopped by a mere iron gate? Let's see who comes out; I'll beat him to a pulp!]

The two put all their strength into it, preparing for a fierce battle.

But the next thing you hear is a soft, sweet female voice.

"＞＞＞▇Welcome back▇Star▇" Although it still spoke like a machine at an incredibly even pace, it was clearly not the same AI as before.

The two were completely taken aback.

Dan Heng was stunned: "What...?"

[Star: Welcome back? Me? Are you talking about me?]

[Sunday: It couldn't possibly be about me.]

[Star: I don't think I've ever been there, have I? So why am I "coming back"? That's strange. Could it be that Lai Gushi was so kind as to give me a premium account? That doesn't seem possible at all.]

[March 7th: And why does that voice sound so familiar?]

An unknown, sweet female voice said again: ">>> I will be waiting for you in the future."

Her voice gradually became mocking and harsh, but even this small amount of information was enough to leave the two of them completely confused.

"It mentioned...your name?" Danheng asked, puzzled.

Xing rested her chin on her hand: "Who's secretly helping us?"

She thought to herself: And it feels a bit like déjà vu...

Suddenly, she realized where this feeling came from: "When I first opened 'As I Write'? Luckily, it wasn't taken by [Long Night Moon]. Let's give it a try."

Heavy books floated in front of the door, their pages fluttering and dancing.

The emotionless electronic voice of the δ-me13 scepter re-announced: ">>> Operation authorized, protocol name: 【▇▇▇▇】"

The red pattern on the door turned blue, and the heavy iron door opened by itself without them having to push it!

Dan Heng clicked his tongue in amazement: "The seal has been broken. I never expected this book to play a role here..."

As the two entered the hidden "tomb," a figure suddenly appeared before them, startling them once again.

"That is..."

It's Xi Lian!

With her back to the two of them, she gave a charming smile and said, "Hi, did you miss me?"

[March 7th: Miss Xi Lian? Wait! Wasn't that the second female voice at the front door just now?!]

[Bai'er: Yes...yes! That voice, though cold and mechanical, was definitely hers. But the question is, why? She's my childhood friend from Arimixie, my comrade who fought alongside Caislan in the first life. How did she become connected to Onpharos's programming?]

[Black Tower: Oh, it seems we've all forgotten something extremely important. How did this little girl, who should have died at the beginning of each reincarnation, become the "Memory Spirit" of the Star? Another futile effort of thirty million lifetimes... Ha, March 7th, would you be interested in exchanging some insights with Eriol? Now that I think about it, she really should have been standing right in front of us long ago.]

[March 7th: You mean, Miss Xilian is the thirteenth Titan? The Iron Tomb weakness forcibly deleted by Laigus?! No… this… I… sigh!]

She felt her mind becoming increasingly confused.

The person who helped open the door was quite different from Xi Lian, whom they knew, wasn't she?

Isn't Miss Xi Lian's identity a bit too complicated?

……

Xing Shen paused, realizing that Xi Lian had gone missing during the battle to intercept Chang Ye Yue when the rescue on Sunday failed.

I never expected to meet you here again.

"Of course, where did you go before?"

However, Xi Lian's next words made her heart twist.

Without turning her head, she looked straight ahead and laughed, "Just kidding, this is the first time I've come to stand before you..."

The electronic voice of the scepter sounded again: ">>> Execution protocol λ003-097: Format object."

>>> Formatting process, 0.015%.

Xi Lian forced a smile and sighed softly, "It seems this is the last time."

Dan Heng suddenly realized, "Something's wrong. She's not talking to us. This isn't the [Mimi] you know..."

"Could it be the [Xi Lian] from the past?"
