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

Master Boshi: "██The end is born, but the end must already exist██."

The dim red light flickered frequently, becoming increasingly glaring.

"██There are four possibilities, three of which are known: destruction, nothingness, and harmony. Regardless of the four, pioneering has already reached its end, or has become the end██."

[March 7th: Or perhaps the end... General Yao Guang was right! Is pioneering and the end truly two sides of the same coin? Why?!]

[Gold Sand: Now that I think about it carefully, the movement trajectories of the Star Train and the Star Core Hunter do indeed overlap significantly? @Kafka, my respected... well, business rivals who are currently difficult to deal with amicably, there aren't many legends about the End Star God, but each one is incredibly legendary. And the most intriguing one is naturally that He came from the apocalypse towards us. In other words, as His direct descendants, you should know far more than all of us, right? And the future of the universe...]

[Kafka: I'm so sorry, but Eriol is an "improvisational" screenwriter; he can't possibly cram a complete script into our hands all at once. In fact, we haven't even received our part about Onpharos yet.]

[Star: Tsk, it seems fate is being too lenient with Eriol, this slave of destiny. Whip him harder, or grab his legs and swing him against a tree—that'll definitely give him a burst of inspiration!]

[Fireworks: Cat lovers strongly condemn this. You're treating it like a slave to its fate!]

[Silver Wolf: Um...is it possible that your choices change drastically each time, making it pointless to know too much beforehand? And isn't there an even more explosive revelation behind that previous sentence?]

[Qingque: Four possibilities for the "end" of the universe, or rather, game over? Wow, the universe's demise is quite elaborate. And, Master Boshi has already calculated it perfectly?]

[The Robin: Destruction and nothingness are among them, which is not surprising. But why would harmony cause such a huge disaster? And what about the unknown fourth...?]

[Su Chang: The universe is so pitiful, being tormented by so many guys in turn.]

[Sunday: There is a solution. Since these destinies lead to the end, then... severing them all will naturally ensure safety.]

[Qingque: Good heavens, a Bloodbath Faction? This is a desperate measure. But regardless, it seems the outcome will depend on the actions of the Star Train?]

[Star: Wow...that's classy! As expected, the train is the absolute protagonist of the galaxy, the coolest thing in the entire universe!]

[March 7th: What are you focusing on? Think about what's happening right now. If you answer wrong, forget about the end of the universe, you won't even be able to get past the Iron Tomb!]

Everyone was immediately brought back to their senses from the bewildering "major revelations about the future of the universe".

Yes! We don't know what's going on with the universe, but our own "end" is already at our throats!

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the Venerable Master asked his second question, but it was exactly the same as before: "██ I ask: If that's the case, why did you expand ██?"

[Star: Isn't He annoying? Why is it always that line?]

[Black Tower: It's still not quite the same. Translation: Even if you survive the fourth moment by sheer luck, the impending apocalypse will still bury everything. If that's the case, what sustains you in this meaningless exploration?]

[Qingque: Ah~ I'm going to die sooner or later anyway, I've given up on resisting.]

[That Moment Xia: It's not that there's no way to break through. As this machine head said, even if the encounter between pioneering and the end is inevitable, for the Star God, there has always been one option: Devour Him! Don't become Him, but let Him become you. The journey will not end, and the destination will never be reached.]

[March 7th: That's easy for you to say...]

[That Moment Summer: Is it difficult? Of course it is. But how could saving the world be easy? When you encounter an obstacle, you either overcome it or you stumble and die on it—it's that simple. But, do you, or rather, all of us, dare to step up?]

[Star: What's there to be afraid of? Galaxy Baseball Man never runs away from a fight! Pioneers don't do comfortable things in comfortable places; they do things that make everyone happy, precisely in uncomfortable places!]

[Himeko: Hmm, it seems even the youngest member of our train has his own pioneering spirit.]

The light screen shifted, facing seemingly repetitive questions.

Xing took a deep breath and said solemnly, "No matter what, someone needs to keep going."

[Star: Forward, forward by any means necessary. As long as we keep exploring, the road will keep extending!]

The red light on the car was ticking, and everyone stared nervously, their heartbeats pounding.

But almost instantly, He said, "██I have learned: the end is still unknown██".

[March 7th: This is... I passed?!]

She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and exhaled a puff of breath.

[Qingque: Hmm... That's great, I can live a little longer, that's wonderful.]

[Black Tower: The End Point Remains Unknown? In other words, even the machine head hasn't figured out what the solution will be?]

[Fireworks: Commonly known as "I don't know."]

[Yao Guang: That's good news. As a diviner, I'm not afraid of good or bad fortune, but I am afraid of absolute certainty with no room for maneuver. Even if the future looks bleak, this vagueness still allows for some flexibility!]

[March 7th: But what exactly is the attitude of the Venerable One? Will He help us or not? There are still a few questions waiting for us; will He keep asking them indefinitely?]

Inside the train, March 7th looked distressed.

This "mental bungee jumping" was so uncomfortable; every question made her nervous and terrified.

Especially since the respondent is Xing, who knows if she might suddenly come up with some clever idea?

"Why didn't He ask about me and Professor Danheng? We were pioneers too."

After venting his frustrations, on March 7th, he clasped his hands together, nervously prayed, and made a grand vow: "Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, learned immortals, please show your power! Please save yourself! If successful, I can study diligently every day and read 10 books, oh, 8, 7, 6... 3 pages each!"

The light curtain flows.

The next question from the Venerable Master emerges: ██As I see it: Exploration is an infinite, disordered chaos. On its path, the stars have fallen, destiny has crumbled. Everything ceases to exist, and existence itself ceases to exist██”

"██Nameless people, lifeless people██"

[Star: Why do you explore new frontiers?]

Master Boshi: "I asked: If that's the case, why did you expand?"

[Star: Isn't He annoying? Or has the Iron Tomb virus taken full effect, rendering Him incoherent?]

[The Black Tower: No, there are still subtle differences. It said: She has seen that pioneering possesses all possibilities, but many "constants" can no longer be variables. Among these, the Star Gods and Destiny are bound to collapse, unable to offer any assistance. You can do very little, but the consequences you face are extremely heavy, so heavy that no one can bear them. Given this, why do you still insist on pioneering?]
