Star Railway: I'm developing the Star Railway mobile game at my company.

This sudden scene left the audience somewhat confused, and then Ladio continued to speak.

Knowledge should be circulated and shared, and so should truth.

On behalf of myself, I request that all pioneers be given the opportunity to receive knowledge and education.

[With the launch of the "Everything Flows" event in version 1.6, all pioneers who have unlocked the mailbox function can receive a limited five-star character, Doctor Truth, via mail.]

That is, myself.

Mediocre people will create the most popular characters in their own way.

That's all, goodbye.

At that moment, the audience felt that the icon representing Latio Communications avatar began to glow, as if a god had descended!

Many viewers rubbed their eyes in disbelief, making sure they weren't hallucinating.

After a brief moment of shock, all the players' emotions were ignited by this news!

"What's going on? Did I hear that right?"

"Holy crap! Holy crap! I can get five stars directly via email?"

"And it's not a permanent character, nor is it just a useless poster; it's a limited-time character! A limited-time character that's normally included in the limited-time gacha pool!"

"Could it be Aha Invasion causing trouble?"

"New players, don't panic! Even veteran players have never seen this before!"

"Godfather! Is it really Godfather?!"

"The One True God!!!"

"Knowledge should circulate and be shared; truth will always exist!"

"I love my teacher, but I love truth more!"

“He’s glowing!”

"Now, the truth is in everyone's hands!"

"Wait a moment, traveler. Do you acknowledge that the wisdom of Doctor Veritas Ladio, the Doctor of Truth, is unparalleled in the world?"

"Yes, I acknowledge that Doctor Veritas Ladio's wisdom is unparalleled!"

"I can hardly believe it. Given the current popularity of Star Iron, this giveaway will surely reduce revenue by at least hundreds of billions!"

"Calm down! This free character might not be that strong. Other games have given them away before, and they're basically just for show!"

"I'm going to stab him now, even if he's healing the monster!"

"I originally didn't want to take the Light Cone, but for my godfather, this gold is worth it!"

"I'll just buy a six-star Soul! That way I'll have an extra gift for my godfather!"

Chapter 206 There are more experts?! Pinocchio Pancake!

Just when players thought the preview was over, the news that the limited-edition character Doctor Truth would be given away for free caused a stir among players.

Nobody expected this surprise to suddenly appear in what was otherwise an ordinary program.

Even afterwards, players kept watching the recording of this preview program, some to confirm the authenticity of the news, and others to pay homage.

In short, after this show, Professor Ladio earned a title widely recognized by StarCraft fans: StarCraft Godfather!

But that's all in the future.

Back in the preview program, Jimi was also stunned by this move. After regaining his senses, he respectfully said...

[Okay, goodbye Professor! You're absolutely right! Knowledge should be shared, and so should information!]

And then, while players were still reveling in the surprises brought by Professor Latio, one last bombshell announcement was made!

The screen shows a poster for Dr. Truth who can claim rewards upon logging in, then the camera shifts and Jimi's voice sounds again.

Welcome everyone to the Family Harmony Ceremony press conference! I'm your host, Jimi!

[The grand celebration, held only once every Amber Age, is about to take place, and the world's attention is focused on Pinocchio, the star of this event.]

Tonight, we will bring you the latest updates on this year's Harmonious Music Festival!

When Sunday arrived, the players' emotions were stirred up again by the news that Dr. Truth would be given away for free!

"It's finally here! The Pinocchio I've been waiting for the most!"

"There are still experts?!"

"Wow, I didn't expect there to be a surprise at the end!"

"I really can't fit any more, there are just too many flatbreads!"

On Sunday, the host spoke eloquently and calmly about Pinocchio and the Harmony Grand Ceremony, leaving uninformed viewers completely unaware of what had actually happened to him.

[In this grand ceremony, the robin, on behalf of its family, will sing a hymn to the god of humor, thus opening the ceremony.]

In the background demonstration, the robin appears to be dressing up in front of a mirror, which is the very image that will later become the robin's signature light cone, "Nighttime Radiance".

As expected of a star in the StarCraft universe, the release of this robin image sparked cheers from a large number of robin fans among the player community.

"Wow, it's Miss Robin! Both of us are overjoyed!"

"Ahhh, Miss Robin is so beautiful!!!"

"Sunday, my brother-in-law!"

"The large-scale documentary 'Waiting for the Robin' has officially launched!"

As Sunday continued his introduction, Misha from the Daydream Hotel, Ryuhoshi from the Iris family, and Gallagher from the Hound family, who was in charge of security, all appeared before the audience.

New character content from version 2.0 is now being presented to players and viewers.

In this world without any insider spoilers, the novelty it brings dazzles the audience, making them feel overwhelmed by the sheer variety.

"So cute! Misha!"

"Is that a train ticket that only train crews have? Does that mean Misha is going to board the train?"

"Is the train crew getting a new member? Yay!"

"Oh my god, Liu Ying's smile is so sweet! She has the perfect girlfriend vibe!"

"She's so beautiful!!!"

"This is my favorite out of all the people I've fallen in love with!"

"March 7th, I'm sorry!"

"And this picture of Gallagher, he's a mature man who exudes a sense of security!"

"My XP system is completely controlled by the official developers!"

Seeing familiar faces appear in the preview program, Xing's expression was unusually sentimental.

“Misha... Galah...we will not forget you.”

As Sunday introduced it, he continued.

[There is no danger in Pinocchio's dream; the family promises that the safety of every guest will be guaranteed.]

This statement, which resembled a flag, made viewers, even those unaware of what had happened at Pinocchio, feel inexplicably uneasy.

Of course, the family embraces everything. As long as you have dreams and goodwill, even guests from the Annihilation Gang, or even... Star Core Hunters, Pinocchio will welcome you.

In the demonstration, an image of the Grand Duke of the Underworld, dressed in a formal suit, wearing a monocle, and with flames burning on his ram's head, appeared.

Following closely behind was the mech Sam, standing calmly before the towering flames.

"Lord of the Netherfire! The master of the Pursuit Set!"

"What a cool sheep's head!"

"Isn't that the goat-headed man from the Yepela Rebellion?"

"And Sam! Am I finally going to run into Sam in Pinocchio?!"

"Damn, now we've basically met all the Star Core Hunters except for Elio!"

"It's Sam who sends you emojis!"

"Mech Sam will definitely be released, right!"

After the opening introductions, Sunday announced that the guest list for the event would be released.

Then a powerful piece of music started playing, the melody from the Thousand Stars Chronicles which introduced the Star God, as Jimi read aloud.

[Dedicated to the Guardian Amber King, a senior executive in the Strategic Investment Department of the Galaxy's largest economic entity, the Interstellar Peace Corporation, and one of the legendary Stoneheart Ten, Sand Gold!]

Sitting at the gambling table, the blond man, dressed in fine clothes, propped his head up and glanced sideways at the camera. He was none other than Sand Gold, representing the company!

Seeing his own image appear on the show, a meaningful smile appeared on Sand Gold's lips.

The introduction continues; next up is the Star Train.

Explore, understand, build, connect, and inherit the nameless journey from the pioneering spirit of Archivist Aquitaine, connecting the routes between stars.

[Himeko, the navigator of the Starry Sky Train, will be visiting Pinocchio with the entire Starry Sky Train crew!]

Listening to Jimi's narration, and seeing the large image of Himeko's light cone from The Night of the Galactic Railroad, the audience once again realized just how prestigious the Starry Sky Train was.

[Using knowledge to trade for wisdom, using formulas to calculate wealth, transcending individual limitations through an interconnected academic network—Mr. Ladio, the renowned scholar of the Knowledge Society and Doctor of Truth!]

Seeing that picture of himself showering with light cones placed in this kind of presentation left Ladio speechless.

[Thought is existence, memory is proof of existence. Dedicated to the preservation and sharing of memories, transcending the physical body to travel through the starry sea, the Memory Maker from the Flowing Light Memory Court, Miss Black Swan!]

Upon seeing this veiled older sister again, players were reminded of her first appearance in "A Collection of Fables about the Stars, Part One".

The universe is merciless, yet joy can soothe pain. Never give up, never despair, never cry, never say goodbye.

[Miss Fireworks will represent the Masked Fool at the grand event!]

Beneath the dazzling fireworks blooming in the starry sky, a lively girl is setting off a firework in her hand, with a bright and sunny smile on her face. It's hard to believe that she is actually a masked fool.

[Walking the path of a hunter's quest, venturing to planet after planet, upholding justice, eliminating evil, and then embarking on a new journey.]

They've been out of the spotlight for too long; Miss Huang Quan will return to the stage representing the Sea Patrol Knights!

As the figure of Huang Quan, who looked remarkably like Seele, appeared.

That concludes the presentation of version 2.0 of the Pinocone pancake!

Chapter 207 Negative Score, Get Out!

After introducing the various factions, Sunday concluded by speaking.

On behalf of my family, I cordially invite you, our distinguished guests, to Pinocchio and join us for this grand celebration.

Honkai Impact: The Star Railway sign flashes by, and there's a little surprise right at the very end!

The scene then shifts to the bustling, brightly lit Pinocchio in real life.

With this final, dazzling scene, the 1.6 preview program comes to an end!

The audience was utterly shocked!

Countless words welled up from the bottom of their hearts and were displayed as bullet comments!

"A fantastic preview!"

"Seriously, this preview is incredibly important!"

"My favorite episode!"

"Is this Pinocchio finally here? Ah, the light! The water!"

"No wonder he's called the Star of the Event, just looking at him gives me the feeling of burning credits!"

"And the character trailers that were released at the end, they'll definitely be released, right? They'll all be released, right!"

"What a wallet killer! How come every character is so good-looking? I can't bear to give up any of them!"

"Black Swan! I've been waiting for her ever since the first PV introducing the Star Goddess. Is she finally coming?!"

"Fireflies are so cute!"
