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

The train crew looked at each other, even the seasoned veterans like Himeko and Walter were at a loss for words.

"Poor child. Before even meeting, you must experience separation."

"If fate were a conscious being, it would definitely be a huge, huge villain!"

……

Within the light screen, Black Tower's expression was complex. He sighed deeply, "I won't say anything more, lest I spoil the atmosphere."

"But one last question, may I ask you?"

Xi Lian nodded: "Of course."

"Why?" Black Tower knew that Xi Lian was almost certain to choose this path. But why was she so decisive?

Xi Lian pondered for a moment, then smiled gently: "I've heard it said that divinity is flawless humanity, while humanity is flawed divinity..."

She gazed into the distance, as if she could see those "flawless" gods.

"Onphalus's children no longer believe in gods. Compared to them, who love to play pranks..."

She turned and met Black Tower's gaze, saying proudly, "I definitely trust her more, and myself as a human being."

[March 7th: Is this the story of the crystal flower?]

[Yao Guang: At this point, she had already taken a half-step into the realm of gods. Logically speaking, if she wanted to take another step, there was certainly a way. The fact that Bo Shi Zun saw two paths is proof of this, but she chose to become human, choosing to be flawed.]

[Black Tower: From naivety, to understanding, to now complete mastery, she has fully matured.]

After a moment of contemplation, Hei Ta exchanged a smile with Xi Lian and turned to leave.

She felt both relieved and regretful: "That's a... reassuring answer."

The entire space was enveloped in pure white light. When she was alone, Xi Lian pressed her hand to her chest, recalling a small regret: "As for that selfish desire that I find hardest to let go of..."

Space materialized into illusions according to her thoughts. Phantoms of stars appeared behind her, each moving in opposite directions.

That's fine too, isn't it?

Xi Lian smiled faintly: "One person remains in the past..."

"One person walks into the future."

Only then did she understand the true meaning of this oracle. Or rather, it wasn't an oracle at all, but rather—a self-narration.

"I believe that she, the one I care about most, will bear witness to the ripples of the past..."

"Every tomorrow shines brightly!"

[Star: I will, I always will!]

Tears still glistened in Xing's eyes, and her jaw was clenched tightly.

Can I let it go? How could I possibly let it go?

But she will definitely help Xi Lian fulfill her wish!

"I will witness every star shining tomorrow, and I will always remember you, my partner."

……

Within the light curtain, Xi Lian strolled in pure white light. There were no landmarks here, nor any sense of direction.

But she knew that she was going against the flow of time, and the significance of each moment was clearly visible.

"Is this the moment when the Iron Tomb declares victory and unleashes destruction upon the stars?"

She suddenly realized, then smiled shyly: "So, back then, in that narrow juncture of fate, it was [I] who found [myself]. The whispers of the gods were actually a young girl's own words."

"Thinking back, what I heard at the time was..." She closed her eyes and recalled that chaotic divine decree.

The screen flickers slightly, and in a moment of near despair, the pink-clad girl whispers in the ear of another pink-clad girl.

You were once a god, who descended to earth because of your sins. The poems you wrote will be your memories in Sudarsana. I am not a son of man, who fell to earth because of my blessings. The poems I erased were my forgettings in Sudarsana.

Xi Lian smiled with interest: "But what I really wanted to say was: [Don't give up, the stars will find you]..."

"Memory is truly amazing."

[Black Tower: The progress of this causal closure is much faster than I expected. Considering everything, the interval between Xi Lian sending the "divine oracle" to her past self might not even be a single system time?]

[Qingque: So this oracle was fresh out of the pot, it's still hot.]

[March 7th: Moreover, this "oracle" comes with a mystical translation. Does this mean the star gods actually speak in very simple language, and it's just that this makes it seem exceptionally solemn and sacred?]

[Fireworks: I don't know about others, but the God of Joy has never been solemn or sacred; if he is, it's just an act.]

[Himeko: Furthermore, this also explains why the "Floating Dawn" we see is always all talk and no action, behaving like a cunning schemer. We were all wrong before. From the beginning, there wasn't a god of memory battling destruction and intellect here. What we have here are mortals raising the banner of rebellion.]

Xi Lian smiled faintly: "Then let them exercise this power and sow the seeds of cause and effect for the destined miracle."

She raised her hands, sowing ripples of cause and effect, creating [a page of eternity].

The blank world began to come alive with color, and a magnificent temple unfolded before her eyes—that was her "Sudarsana" (or "Sudarsana").

"That being said, shall we continue all the way to the starting point of [memory]?"

Even with her optimistic nature, she frowned slightly: "It's such a long way, it's a bit lonely traveling alone."

[Xing: How about I go with you... Xi Lian, take me with you!]

Xing was heartbroken and wrote this out of deep feeling.

The people in the Milky Way immediately panicked, and while immersed in a faint sadness, they cried out no.

[Qingque: Huh? No, sis, you went to slack off? What if Mo Wang comes to cover for you? It's fine if you breathe on him, but if we breathe on him... well, that's pointless!]

[Silver Wolf: A direct B-end? No way, even a joker wouldn't act like this. You're having a winning game right now, and you're surrendering just to rush into the "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" situation? Where's your sportsmanship?! Better to get a slam thrashing than surrender!]

[Xi Lian: Ah~~ My friend is so reluctant to let me go? I'm flattered. But wait for me a little while, who knows, maybe on some sleepless night when you're counting stars, the pink-clad girl will suddenly rush into your arms♪]

[Star: Hahaha... I wouldn't even dare to dream of something this beautiful.]

Just as Xi Lian's melancholy was about to erupt, a sweet voice suddenly rang out behind her: "Then...would you mind if another person accompanied you?"

"Ugh!" Xi Lian's body stiffened, and her eyes widened suddenly. For a moment, she was as innocent as when she ran towards the train under Taozi's guidance.

That sound is...

She turned her head to look at her side.

The little girl in pink was standing with her hands behind her back, looking at her playfully.

"If it were peaches, I wouldn't mind having 30 million more, right?"

Ripples of the Past laughed and said, "One is enough."

"Let's get ready and set off."

"Walk along the ripples of memory to the past, and string together those moments of divine manifestation."
