Bengtetsu, the shapeshifting me, causes trouble everywhere.

Instead of continuing the topic, he asked:

So what are you planning to do next?

Although Huang Quan didn't ask, she could roughly sense that it wasn't time for Bai Ming to change his identity yet.

"I plan to go to Pinocchio next."

"Pinoccon? Why?"

Huang Quan tilted his head in confusion.

“I met someone at the Sea Patrol, a former nobody who was deeply involved in Pinocchio’s independence, but now he’s being blocked by those families from going in to see his former comrades.”

"So what are your own reasons?"

"As for me... my family uses star cores to stabilize my memory domain. I'm a bit curious about that technology. Since I'm the Great Monarch of Annihilation and I know a bit about harmony, I want to study it."

Apart from this point,

There's another reason that's not easy to say.

'Star Howl' is actually a reference to the ending of Pinocchio in the original game's storyline, which I have always been thinking about.

That part of the story was great in every way, but the part about the star core ended up being a disappointing mess in the final stages.

They made a huge fuss about it, but then they dug a hole and didn't fill it.

Now my identity and abilities are just right.

She made up her mind to go and take a look.

Although it's impossible to see the whole picture.

After all, it will be at least several hundred years before the main storyline begins.

But take a look at the star core.

Oh, and Mikhail is still alive, so you can take a look while you're at it.

This can be considered as making up for the regret.

Well……

I wonder when the train will return to Pinocchio in the future.

What will it become?

It is unknown whether Tirnan died in the war against Juro, or after returning to Pinocchio.

What kind of changes will this bring?

In short...

Whether Dan Heng will board the train or whether Ren will remain a Star Core Hunter is still uncertain.

'Star Howl' touched his smooth chin.

I always feel like I haven't been in this world for very long.

The main storyline will be completely distorted by myself in the future.

Forget it.

do not care.

My lifespan is only a hundred years, and it's uncertain whether I'll even live to see the main storyline.

……

I spent a day with her here in the underworld.

Back to reality.

I met Tirnan, who was ready to depart.

And beside Tirnan...

The older woman with the knife was also standing here.

"Camus is a good companion of mine. She plans to go to Pinocchio with me, saying she wants to see what it's like there."

Tirnan generously introduced his companions.

Camus, a sea ranger dressed in light armor, bowed slightly to Xingxiao.

"Thank you for your help this time, Ms. Xingxiao."

"It's alright, get on the spaceship, I'll take you to Pinocchio."

'Star Howl' had no idea how the addition of these two sea patrol rangers would change Pinocchio.

But there will definitely be some changes.

The future of Pinocone.

Chapter 36 No Entry Allowed, Pinocchio Does Not Welcome the Extinction Lord

Although they boarded the spaceship.

But this time, 'Star Howl' doesn't plan to continue slowly jumping in its spaceship.

Instead, it directly engulfed the entire spaceship with the Phase Flame.

They were sent to the Asdna system.

And now, in this era, Pinocchio...

It's not yet the star of the grand event to come.

The power of harmony had only recently entered Pinocchio, and hadn't even integrated those families into one system yet.

Although it was under Gopher's leadership, with the help of the star core and relying on harmonious music, people's thoughts were linked together.

They became a great tree that resisted the dangerous memory domain, forming an indestructible defense line.

Although the external threats have subsided, internal troubles continue to plague Pinocchio.

In Xingxiao's memory, the trouble lasted for a long time, until Gopher Wood turned evil before it finally ended.

I don't know the specifics of the situation.

all in all.

Pinocogniz today is not the popular vacation destination it will be in the future.

Only those who chase danger and opportunity come here.

In addition, there are disputes between the Pinocchio natives and the Harmony family, as well as other companies eyeing the area.

It's no exaggeration to say it was dangerous.

"To be honest... I actually think that it wouldn't be a bad option for you to withdraw with your former partners who helped you explore the frontier."

Before getting close to Pinocchio, 'Star Howl' and Tirnan talked about Pinocchio.

She also learned a lot about Pinocchio's past and the Star Train's past from Tirnan.

“I know that many of those indigenous people are not good people, and their families probably have ulterior motives, but in any case, there are still many innocent people who yearn for freedom and need to be saved. This salvation is not violence, but an idea.”

Pinocone was originally a prison for criminals.

Given the practices of Interstellar Peace Corporation, many of those working there are probably innocent people who were born here.

But that doesn't mean that everyone in this prison is innocent.

After joining the Sea Rangers, Tiernan traveled to so many worlds.

He finally realized what Pinocchio was lacking.

Even if a prisoner breaks free from physical confinement, he cannot find true freedom.

Because what imprisons them is their own hearts.

They ousted the company, but they didn't gain freedom.

Because they didn't know what to do after they were kicked out of the company.

Even Tirnan back then didn't know.

But now...

After consulting with so many experienced patrol officers, Tiernan finally understood.

That was the purpose behind Tirnan's return this time.

Only by breaking free from the prison of their own hearts can these people who pursue freedom find true freedom.

"It seems you're really prepared."

"Of course, during all these years of being shut out, I've been thinking, thinking, if I could go back, what else could I do besides this martial arts skill?"

Tirnan's tone became particularly emotional.

He gazed at the vast sea of ​​stars, feeling the familiar, memory-filled starry sky.

His eyes held unwavering determination.

“I’ve been making futile preparations for that vague dream, and I thought I would die somewhere in the universe with these futile results, but now, I’m really back.”

Tiernan looked at 'Star Howl' and revealed a bright smile:

“My efforts no longer seem futile, the illusory dream seems to be turning into reality, and I feel like I can really lead Pinocchio to pursue freedom once again.”

When Tirnan said these things,

The woman who came with him looked at Tirnan with eyes full of longing.

'Xingxiao' wasn't sure if there were worldly desires in those eyes.

But she must have found Tirnan incredibly charming, and the future he spoke of so dazzling.

That's why I willingly came to this dangerous world.

"Then I wish you success."

When I played games before, I didn't think things through carefully, and I didn't read a lot of the game text in detail.

But now it seems that with those bad guys mixed in, these natives may not be so innocent either.
