Xingtie: Starting with an in-depth analysis of the Yellow Springs

"As expected... Miss Saifeier did not fail in her mission!"

At this moment of near collapse, we finally received a boost.

The group arrived at the bathhouse via the bathhouse elevator.

Through his ability to sense the water, Danheng learned that Ohmma was almost entirely filled with grief and despair, as well as a sense of unease.

A dark purple flame flickered, and the Fire Thief emerged from the flame, blocking its path.

This time, it didn't say much, and several avatars surrounded them from all directions.

Feeling uneasy, "Could it be that Wan Di..."

Now, Bai'e had no choice but to accept this cruel truth. Since the Fire Thief was here, then all enemies…

[Nicole: Seriously, Onpharos, what the hell do you want? Firewalker, give us back Tibbo and Invincible!]

[Qingque: Oh dear, I can't take it anymore.]

[Ying: That's a bit too much, isn't it? Cat, Wind Violet, Ten Thousand Enemies... are you planning to kill all the remaining Golden Blood members? One day... no, not even one day yet!]

[Star: *Chirp chirp chirp*, Lagushi, I wish you a terrible death.]

[Aglaia: Bai'er, go relax and relieve some stress.]

[Bai E: I'm fine...]

[Bai Lu: Bai E seems to be shattering. Don't cry, don't cry. No matter what you face, you must stay optimistic. This is Doctor Bai Lu's exclusive secret.]

[Walter: Star, let's go talk to Bai Er for a bit. I'm a little worried he's been holding it in for too long. Resentment and anger don't disappear; they just linger inside, waiting for an outlet.]

[Star: Mm-hmm.]

Xing pulled out his baseball bat. "You guys go, I'll cover you!"

“No.” Dan Heng came to the two of them. “Bai E, take Xing to the core of the Creation Vortex. I’ll stay here and hold it off.”

"Danheng, you..."

"Don't hesitate, Bai'e—you still bear the mission of recreating the world. There may be other Fire Thief Walkers ahead... Star, stay by Bai'e's side to protect him from any unforeseen circumstances."

Danheng looked sharply at the Fire Thief, “The Onpharos always talk about destiny… that destiny of pioneering is that we will always tie the survival of each world to ourselves.”

“I’ll stay with you…” Xing suggested.

Dan Heng shook his head: "Someone has to buy time."

"I don't plan to say goodbye to anyone forever, Hoshi—don't worry, I will do everything I can to survive."

The Fire Thief said coldly, "Time... is running out..."

"Everything... will be reduced to zero."

"Go!" Dan Heng roared.

Xing shouted at him, her words filled with worry: "You must keep your word, Danheng... you absolutely cannot die here!"

Danheng nodded, then walked toward the Fire Thief.

A flute melody in the style of a fairy boat rang out, as if flowing water gently before one's eyes.

"Where there is flowing water, I can use its power to cleanse away evil."

The scene flashed by, and the exceptionally handsome Danheng Dragon Lord appeared, with blue dragon horns on his head, and he controlled all the waters.

The Fire Thief was stunned. "This power... is unfamiliar..."

Chapter 483 Should I leave?

"Who are you...?"

Dan Heng, though not angry, exuded an imposing aura. "Even if I am just a passerby, I will not hesitate to protect the unfamiliar world beneath my feet with my life... This is the inescapable destiny of pioneering."

"I am an anonymous visitor, and what I have to do..."

"It is to defend all hope that is about to fade away."

[Jiko: Who is it? 】

[Fireworks: Oh dear, I'm just a passing-by Vidyadhara Dragon Lord. (Dragon Lord shaking.jpg)]

[Dan Heng: ...]

[Barbara: Judging by this trend, could it be that Mr. Danheng will also be killed by the Fire-Stealing Walker?]

[Star: Impossible!]

[Sambo: The Firewalker seems a bit too strong. Wan'e is, after all, a demigod of the Strife, whose strength once surpassed that of the Titans at their peak.]

[Walter: Who exactly is it? Could it be a special variable from Onphalus?]

[Billy: I'm not even moved by Danheng turning into a dragon. Bai'e, you must avenge the other Golden Blood!]

[Black Swan: Ah… Chaos and disorder, I can't even penetrate its memories.]

[Fu Xuan: How could that be? I have a bold theory, though: the Fire Thief is the Iron Tomb's incarnation within Onpharos.]

[The Little Candle: No. Caesar believes that, regardless of whether it's a fire-stealer or a pot-stealer, Onphalus's only threat is Lygus; by eliminating him, the way to destroy the Iron Tomb can be found.]

[Bai'er: But even now, he hasn't taken any action... This means Onphalus is still heading towards destruction.]

[Danheng: We need the help of geniuses now.]

The perspective shifts to the stars and the white calamity.

Two holy city guards stood before the palace gates. "Lord Bai'e!"

"Finally, you're back!"

Bai'er was grateful, "Even in such a desperate moment, you still kept your promise to me... I have no way to thank you."

“Bai E, this is…” Mimi asked in confusion.

He issued orders methodically.

"The Firewalker is causing chaos in the city, and he has many clones—Zeff, please have someone inform Kratrus to lead his elite guards to stand watch at the city's gates—"

"Until I complete the return ceremony...please do your best to rescue the people in the city."

Bai E then looked at the female guard.

“Nimosini—several citizens are trapped in the Garden of Life, temporarily taking refuge under the barrier of the Wind Violet. Can you send some people to evacuate them?”

"Although... I don't know where to send them either."

The guard assured him, "Leave it to us, Lord Bai'er—you just need to focus on your mission."

Bai E finally fixed his gaze on Xing. "Hmm. As for Xing and Dan Heng—I'll leave their escort to you personally."

"Are you hiding something from me, Bai E?" Xing suddenly sensed something was wrong.

"I'm sorry, Xing. I took it upon myself to do this."

Bai'er's eyes were melancholy, yet filled with a resolute determination. "Before the campaign against Aigler, I made the worst preparations. Even if Ohma were to one day fall to the Black Tide..."

“But as long as we defeat Aegler and end the curse of the sky… at least you and Danheng will have a chance to return home safely.”

Xing expressed her disbelief, saying, "The progress bar is at 95%, and you won't let me see the ending?"

“I know this is hard to accept... but even if I have to be blamed for the rest of my life, I have to be responsible for you.”

“You and Danheng taught me what pioneering spirit is, buddy. The best decision I ever made was following my gut and choosing to trust you guys.”

Bai'er was unwilling to drag innocent people into the hopeless Onpharos, where no one could guarantee what would happen in the future of re-creation.

Moreover, the two of them had already helped them so much.

[Star: Bai Er, you've been pulling stunts behind our backs again?]

[Danheng: The Nameless One will not abandon his companions. Since we chose to participate, we are prepared to sacrifice ourselves.]

[Bai'er: Sigh, we still couldn't hide it. Actually, I discussed this with Aglaia and the others. Based on the information we have so far, we can't guarantee that the miracle will happen, so...]

[Star: March is in Onphalus, we absolutely cannot leave.]

[Xiangling: Being a novice is so difficult.]

[Tining: This was... a decision we made together, so don't blame Xiaobai.]

[Xia Die: Lord Xing, although I very much want to keep you here, Lord Bai E is right, Onpharos doesn't need to sacrifice your future.]

[Star: I...]

[Fireworks: Savior, hurry up and get on the Trail Blazers' bus! Even I can't stand your gloomy expression anymore.]

Paimon: You wretched Ragus, it's all your fault.

He told Xing, "Danheng told me many stories of the Nameless Ones' adventures, two of which impressed me the most: Bellenberg and Pinocchio—"

"The previous story taught me that the fate of a world should be determined by its people. And you—even if you are willing to risk your lives for a strange world—will eventually embark on a journey to the next world that needs to be saved."

"Because that is your mission... the destiny you have embarked on."

"And in the second story, Danheng and I talked about those nameless guests who paid with their lives on the prison planet. I know very well that you two are willing to make the same choice for Onpharos."

"After hearing those stories, I made a decision on my own—"

Bai E closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his expression was extremely solemn.

“I will never let your journey end here, Star. In the heavens beyond the reach of the Onpharos, there are many people waiting for you to come home.”

"The oracle was vague and unclear. Even if the twelfth fire was returned, no one knew how the re-creation would manifest itself... let alone whether a miracle would befall the two visitors from outer space."

"The last thing I can do for you before you step into an unknown destiny... is to help you return to your families."

Bronya: Berloburg, thanks to the help of these anonymous guests, otherwise we might have been lost in the galaxy over time.

[Hook: Honorary members are the best!]

[Ring: Cocolia's fusion core is truly terrifying; the oppressive feeling is palpable. Bronya, don't be modest; your leadership and decisions are also crucial.]

(Ariello and the space station have been played by default.)

[Seele: Never lose hope, Onpharos. I believe the stars can save your world just as they saved us.]

[Robin: May Onpharos survive this galactic catastrophe. I have decided to immediately travel to a nearby star system to offer assistance...]

Sunday: ...Be careful, I'm always behind you.

Xing wanted to retort, "Leaving aside the divine oracle, we can't go back now."

The male guard explained with a smile, "Please don't worry, Lord Xing. Lord Bai'e has already entrusted Councilor Lai Gushi to repair your vehicles."

"Lord Tinin's Hundred Realms Gate is located on the main road outside Ohma, Your Excellency Star," the female guard said.

Bai E touched his chest to show his apology.

Chapter 484 The Last Gift

"I'm sorry to make such an unreasonable request. But we live in an imperfect era... there is no perfect choice."

Xing looked into his eyes and said, "A hero... doesn't have to bear everything alone."

Bai'er said in the gentlest tone, "We all have the right to make a choice. If you cannot accept the decision I made on your behalf..."

"...Then forge a new path with your own choices—that's what you do best, isn't it?"

"But in any case... Danheng is still struggling to hold on. Don't keep him waiting too long, Xing."

"I hope that one day we can reunite under the witness of the stars... Then, let's hold a belated celebration banquet."

After saying that, Bai E turned and walked into the bathhouse.

[Fou: Bai'er actually secretly helped us figure out how to fix the carriage; he really wants us to leave Onpharos.]

[Star: You said we would become heroes together. In that case, we have no choice but to leverage the connections of the Star Train. I will use pioneering spirit to lead you to a new beginning.]

[Danheng: If there's no other way, Himeko, please don't hesitate to use the Alliance Orb.]

[Aglaia: Go do it, Byr. Go and make this imperfect world the way you want it to be.]

Kiana: Waaah, Aunt Himeko… I miss you.

[Himeko Murata: Kiana, you are excellent. I believe you will become a hero for everyone, just like Bai'e.]
