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

"Procedural crashes initiated!"

"Hey buddy, keep your voice down!"

"That fox-man behind him must be Hu Lei's informant."

"Let's get out of here in the Starship!"

In the story, Jiaoqiu asks the other party to help her report the incident to the police at the Earth Balance Bureau, but the other party refuses the suggestion because she has business to attend to.

The conversation ended, and looking at the NPC who had disappeared, it was clear that he was in grave danger.

But if we're going to seek thrills, let's go all the way.

After that, Jiaoqiu went to the Diheng Division to try to report the crime, and even sought help from the Yunqi Army.

Although the last female Cloud Rider recognized Jiaoqiu and took the matter very seriously.

Unfortunately, one person's strength is not enough.

During the process, the audience also spotted Qingque playing cards on the map, but unfortunately there was no dialogue about asking Qingque for help.

Seeing this scene sent a chill down Qingque's spine for no apparent reason.

"Phew, that was close! Luckily I was focused on the game and didn't get distracted."

When Jiaoqiu arrived at the port to check the situation, he found that it was indeed not sealed off. This was naturally because General Huaiyan had kept the martial arts ceremony as usual while investigating in order to avoid panic.

Although the port was not blocked, Jiaoqiu, using Hulei's identity, found the mole waiting there and learned that they still needed to wait for a large ship that could accommodate everyone to arrive.

Unfortunately, that big ship won't be coming.

Because in version 2.4, Yanqing, Yunli, and Sanyueqi had already dealt with the spies who were preparing to leave with the Star Chariot.

After inspecting the port, Jiaoqiu obediently returned to Hulei.

At Hu Lei's hideout, the audience saw three familiar faces. They were the three people who had called for help earlier, and even the female Cloud Rider was among them!

【You're back, Pepper Hill.】

Come and see who these people are!

Because of his identity as the Cloud Cavalry Commander, which was not yet fully revealed, he didn't even need to lift a finger to trick the three of them into coming over!

Chapter 442 The Mystery of Hu Lei's Immortality

In the story, seeing the three people who had asked for help being brought over, Jiaoqiu immediately panicked.

[Middu, what do you want to do? This has nothing to do with them!]

[Irrelevant? I only asked you to go to the port to check the situation... I never allowed you to be distracted and talk to people.]

Remember, they died because of you.

As he spoke, the screen went black, and a nauseating sound of bones cracking echoed in the courtyard. There was no scream, not even a chance to struggle.

When the audience saw that someone actually died in the plot, they were all shocked.

"Holy crap, they really killed him?"

"Seriously? Are they really that arrogant?"

"Waaaaah, my Cloud Rider sister!"

"Seeing this made my vision go black, and I was filled with deep regret."

"It's so immersive, I already want to ignite the starry sea!"

"Zhao Che Wan Chuan!"

"Thank goodness I came to check. I wouldn't have done it like that if I were making it myself...it's scary."

"I want to confess. My intuition told me not to contact anyone, but I just couldn't resist wanting to see what would happen..."

"I was just about to ask Sparrow for help, thankfully there was no dialogue option."

"I don't think Jiaoqiu asked for help in real life. I hope she's alright."

"Of course, there's a fox spirit watching behind every person seeking help; they know that without even reading the conversation."

Watching this scene where someone gets into trouble because they asked a stranger for help, many people felt a pang of guilt. However, the real culprits were Hu Lei and his gang.

[What's here now isn't a pack of prisoners hiding in fear, but wolves that have wandered into a flock of sheep. My wolf cubs are ravenous; they crave to devour flesh and blood, using your fear as their meal.]

You may hope to escape this situation through your own quick thinking, but remember, we are in a crowded place, and you are not the only hostage. Any movement you make could lead to the deaths of innocent people.

Hu Lei deliberately used the lives of several passersby to warn Jiao Qiu not to act rashly, and then talked about General Yao Qing, who was in charge of hunting him down.

Before the hunt begins, I need to understand my opponent. You may refuse, showing me your mettle; or you may cooperate, saving time for both of us, medic.

As he spoke, Hu Lei's finger touched Jiao Qiu's shoulder blade with a speed so fast it was almost invisible.

It felt as if a piece of flesh had been ripped out by a dagger; the pain pierced between the joints, making it almost impossible for Jiaoqiu to stand up, causing it to emit uncontrollable cries of pain.

【Woo...】

The sudden and unexpected show of force seemed to be a warning to Jiaoqiu to make a careful choice.

Meanwhile, not wanting to make too much noise and be discovered by Hu Lei and the others in this busy city, the pained Jiao Qiu could only try his best to suppress his voice.

This scene resonated with many viewers.

"Master Jiao—!"

"No, why do I get hurt no matter which one I choose?!"

"Thunderclap!!! Show your health bar!"

Even Jing Yuan's expression turned serious as he watched this scene in the story.

After all, if Jiaoqiu really wanted to escape, she didn't need to worry about the bustling city of Luofu; she could have run away earlier.

But for the safety of the surrounding Luofu residents, he chose to endure it all.

Seeing that Jiaoqiu hadn't attracted anyone's attention with her screams, Hu Lei nodded in satisfaction.

Afterwards, Jiaoqiu said that she could tell the other party about Feixiao, but she would have to exchange one answer for another.

Although it's not really appropriate to negotiate under these circumstances, Jiaoqiu is quite assertive about it.

You can torture me until I talk; or... save us both some time, Chief.

Sensing the attitude in the other party's words, Hu Lei finally decided to listen to what Jiao Qiu wanted to ask.

So Jiaoqiu asked about the thing she was most curious about.

[A question has always bothered me. Why are you still alive and well after being tortured for seven hundred years? Humans shouldn't have such long lifespans... nor should they possess such tenacious regenerative abilities.]

When asked about this almost miraculous ability, Hure let out a smug laugh, giving his answer as if showing off.

For some, Hure was a hostage, but for others, the secrets he held were more important.

At the beginning of his imprisonment, some fox people came to study Hu Lei, trying to figure out the cause of the fox people's madness, but unfortunately they all came up empty-handed.

Some people pursue power to destroy their enemies, while others pursue power to become their enemies... Jiaoqiu, which one are you?

Ah, I understand! Yaoqing's healer, you are the most pathetic kind of person—you pursue power so that you can share it with others and use it to do good.

Let me tell you the answer you're looking for.

Then Hu Lei recounted the history of the Buli people, because the progenitor Dulan was not satisfied with his limited life and power, so he used the lives of countless Buli people and fox people to infuse the spring water blessed by the Lord of Longevity, and then a miracle was conceived, the Moon of Fetal Movement.

Just like the Jianmu tree sealed by Luofu Dragon Lord, this is the plague site that Tianfeng Jun of Yaoqing Immortal Boat is responsible for guarding.

Although the Immortal Boat Alliance has sealed away the plague after the war, its original product still became a symbol of Bu Li's war.

It was a heart shaped like a crimson full moon. Generation after generation of warriors had to cut open the chest of their predecessors and devour it, which was the real reason why Hu Lei was immortal.

Seeing this, everyone understood.

"The Lord of Immortality, is that what the Medicine Master gave me?"

"As expected, it still comes down to the power of abundance."

"No wonder there haven't been any new war leaders since Hu Lei was arrested; it turns out the core components are still here."

"No, no, no, the fact that the race is failing means they're not even in good shape. They had a warrior leader before Crimson Moon was created."

"So, as long as Feixiao consumes this Crimson Moon, he can truly suppress Yue Kuang?"

"The immortal general who achieved great victories is simply too powerful!"

"Alright, now it's your turn to tell me... everything about this General Sky Strike."

After Hu Lei finished speaking, the camera panned to a spot under a roof beam, where a familiar figure wearing a hood appeared.

【Pepper Hill...I've found you.】

Upon seeing Bakuzawa, the audience felt an immense sense of peace.

"Bakuzawa!!"

"finally come!"

"I'm so excited! Is there finally hope? (crying)"

"Waaah, I feel so safe again!"

"A reliable, mysterious hooded man!"

After the camera focused on Bakuzawa, the perspective shifted back to Hoshi.

At this moment, Xing and Yanqing were with Feixiao. Yanqing was somewhat incredulous when she heard that Feixiao had already obtained information about Bu Liren.

[Good. My subordinates are constantly searching for clues. Bakuzawa, what's the situation?]

Yu Zhao received a communication message from Mo Ze on the other end.

[General, before Jiaoqiu completely lost contact, I captured the jade omen signal on his body. It shouldn't be long before we can find out their whereabouts.]

Yanqing didn't understand this. Since they could find Bu Liren's location so soon, why not just go there to meet up and eliminate Bu Liren?

Feixiao then provided an explanation.

There's an old proverb among the people of Buli: in the forest, the roles of hunter and prey can change at any moment. Right now, we see ourselves as hunters, but blindly chasing after them will only make us the prey of Hu Lei in the end.

Although they are now on Luofu's home turf, the numerical advantage is meaningless to Hulei, this immortal monster, and the safety of Luofu's residents must be ensured. The situation in this battle is not as easy as imagined.

Chapter 443 A Thousand Stars Journey: The Flying Arrow Chasing Stars

In the story, Yanqing understood after listening to Feixiao's explanation that this operation had to succeed in one strike, otherwise if Hulei struggled, Luofu would be in chaos.

As for the tactics adopted by Feixiao, they are the military strategy of "surrounding three sides and leaving one side open."

A good hunter prepares thoroughly and waits for his prey to come to him in the most suitable location.

The first thing to do is to come to Star Harbor to continue the investigation and block the escape route.

Although Yanqing had eliminated several spies, if Hu Lei wanted to leave, Xingcha would be indispensable, and they would definitely send people to investigate again.

For example, right now, the number of people in this automatically operating area is unusually high.

Fei Xiao glanced casually around and led Yan Qing and Xing toward two of the Tianbo Division personnel.

Who are you people? Don't you know that Starport has been blocked?

Sigh, they're just a few uninvited tourists who wandered in by mistake. Let's talk this out.

The moment he opened his mouth, his speech immediately went viral.

"Well, the werewolf really got the chat going!"

"The Tourist"

"It's one thing for the Tianbo Division not to recognize Yanqing, but they don't even recognize the General?"

"Besides, as a fox-people general, what fox-people wouldn't know about Feixiao?"

Afterwards, Fei Xiao went to find the other staff members on site and found that everything seemed normal after careful questioning. So, Fei Xiao eventually returned to the two suspicious individuals.

When Feixiao returned, the two suspicious individuals even questioned his identity.

Feixiao directly confronted Feixiao about this.

You may never have seen me on the battlefield, but you've certainly heard my name. However, who gave you permission to answer questions with questions? Tell me—
