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

"We Star Iron players can now make our own knives and eat them. They're delicious, so delicious! (Nervous)"

Then the perspective returns to Xing, who is now returning to Xuanfeng City with Mimi and Xiadie.

Nicardoli's roars could still be heard in the distance, which at least proved that the battle on the other side was still going on. If they wanted to help them, they had to follow the breath of memory and go back to the past to break Nicardoli's immortality.

After collecting enough memories, Mimi opened the door to the past for the two, and the once prosperous Xuanfeng City reappeared before their eyes.

Chapter 580 This puzzle is mocking me!

After arriving safely in this warrior city, Xiadie was slightly amazed by the spectacular scenery of Xuanfeng City.

And because Dan Heng joined the battlefield, the situation on Xing's side also began to become tense.

[Hurry up, otherwise by the time we get back, Dan Heng will probably have evolved into Dan Shu.]

Xiadie: [Dan...vertical?]

Although she didn't understand some of it, Xiadie also understood that she was racing against time.

The two of them looked around and found that there were a lot of passers-by around, as if some kind of festival was being held.

So the two of them found a fighter wearing a helmet to ask about the situation, but the other party's reaction was not simple.

Xiadie: [Excuse me, are you here for Nicardori's festival?]

After a moment of silence, the fighter in front of him sighed, left a few words, and turned away.

[How stupid...]

This special reaction was like a golden question mark appearing above the NPC's head, highlighting that this person was by no means simple.

However, Xiadie thought that the other party should just be a person who was traumatized by the war, so the two of them began to investigate clues from other passers-by.

Among them, an indignant member of the Xuanfeng tribe was cursing Maidemus who abandoned his honor and left Xuanfeng City. He praised the current leader of Xuanfeng City, King Oripon, and said that he was still defending the city-state to awaken the Titan.

Listening to these discussions, Xiadie explained for Xing.

[At that time, people still did not know the fate of the old king.]

[...The ending where he was killed by the Lord Wandi.]

Just like the development of many stories of ancient civilizations, the old king is incompetent, the crown prince flees, and he kills his father to succeed to the throne. This series of routines makes everyone feel quite familiar.

"Hoho, is there anything worth seeing here like a loving father and a filial son?"

"What Oedipus the King?"

"Bronya's 'Mother's Day' and Wan Di's 'Father's Day'"

"Looking forward to a hit Father's Day hit"

"Are you devils?"

After some investigation, Xiadie decided to take Xing to participate in the festival and enter the city first, and then see what happens next.

The registration officer standing guard at the gate was announcing the unfortunate departure of the three warriors who had left earlier. Although they had been chopped into mincemeat by the Heavenly Punishment Vanguard, it was believed that Nicardi would accept their heroic spirits.

[Next group! Where is the next group of fighters coming to challenge? ]

Listening to the other party's report, Xing's mouth twitched slightly.

This project sounds quite time-consuming...

Just as the people around were hesitating, the silent fighter appeared and asked them to make way.

Officer Xuan Fengxuan's attitude towards this somewhat taciturn fighter did not seem friendly.

[It's you again, you idiot who can't even speak clearly! You're unarmed, yet you still dream of joining the Hanging Blade Festival? This is disrespectful to the Spear of Scourge!]

"I've emphasized this already—this is a test for three people! If you can't even find a companion willing to risk your life with you, then it's best to return home and herd your cattle!"

It just so happened that Xiadie and Xing also needed to enter the city together, so they said that they were each other's companions.

This clumsy trick could not be hidden from the registration officer, but he still chose to let them participate in the festival together.

The thrilling scenes are almost becoming aesthetically tiring, so adding a series of interludes with vastly different strengths is a nice change of pace.

The disparity in strength was so great that everyone started to hold back their laughter.

It was not until the registration officer asked for the name that everyone learned the fighter's name, Gnaeus.

We successfully entered the festival, and surprisingly, the first part was not a battle, but a puzzle-solving part.

Gnaeus: [I don't understand... What's the point of wasting the time of someone destined to die?]

The complaints from Gnaeus also touched the hearts of many viewers.

"Hahaha, so they really want to solve the mystery?"

"At least we have Xing Qiong to solve the mystery, but they are really suffering."

"The most supportive of Gnaeus"

"My brother is talking to you!"

"I actually think The Golden Scapegoat is quite entertaining, and several of the passages in it feel like foreshadowing."

"In five steps, my past self will become my enemy!"

"The Fate Abyss isn't that sinister. It even gives you hints when your brain is overloaded and you can't solve it for a long time!"

"If you don't understand, just ask. Isn't it good to give hints?"

"It's not good to give a hint! It's taunting me!"

After a boring puzzle-solving process, the three of them met a middleman who recycled soldiers' weapons. He was the weapons dealer they had seen at the city gate before.

In a place like Xuanfeng City where honor is valued above all else, recovering the weapons of dead soldiers and selling them is a stain on their honor.

So when facing such a person, Gnaeus showed his murderous intention, but was finally stopped by Xiadie.

In this regard, Xiadie gave her own reasons.

[Although he was despicable and dirty, his crime did not deserve death and he should not become a sacrifice to the Gray Hand.]

Although she is the embodiment of death, Xiadie cherishes life very much.

[What drives us to wield our swords is never the passion for killing, but the fear of death.]

This explanation naturally won everyone's approval. After all, the other party was just picking up a weapon, not killing people for treasure. It was really unbearable to be killed like this.

After this brief interlude, the group continued on their journey.

During the process, through Xiadie's ability to call upon the souls of the dead, they learned the true purpose of this ceremony.

It turned out that the Titan of Dissension had already begun to go crazy at this moment, and the old king Oripon hoped to use the atmosphere of the festival's discord to temporarily calm Nicardoli.

Because he was afraid of losing his faith, the old king Euripon did not intend to kill the gods, but wanted to use the power of many priests to seal the souls of the gods.

It just so happened that the Titan of Strife was currently battling the Invisible Ones and had no time to care about the stupidity of mortals.

As for why I know so much...

Gnaeus: [Perhaps it was Nicardoli himself who whispered in my ear.]

After both sides exchanged information frankly, the situation began to become clear.

Today, Nicardoli's soul is divided and stored in containers, which is also the secret of his body's immortality.

[Reassemble its soul and unite its divine core once again. In this way, it will regain its dignity as a Titan, and you will have a chance to defeat it head-on.]

Courage, honor, perseverance, sacrifice, and reason.

Then Xing began to piece the five-part Titan back together.

During the process, everyone gradually learned from Gnaeus the story of the Strife Titans' struggle against the Black Tide.

[At some unknown time, a black tide emerged from the distant horizon—it slowly approached the border of Ompharos, and Nicardori was the first Titan to come into contact with it.]

Although Nicardoli fought the black tide for a long time with his willpower, he was eventually defeated.

Before being completely contaminated, it peels off a part of itself, which is also the part it most wants to preserve intact - that is, reason.

It believes that one day its sanity will respond to the call, return to the body of the god, and complete its mission.

At this point, everyone has their own guesses about Gnaeus's identity.

The so-called Gnaeus is the embodiment of Nicardo's rational divinity!

In order to wake himself up, Gnaeus tried again and again, and finally realized that Nicardoli's soul had rotted and could no longer be redeemed.

The only variable to break this endless cycle is the star that comes here!

Gnaeus: [The seal binding the divinity has been lifted. As long as the soul is forged here, Nicardoli will be able to return to wholeness.]

You will fight a Titan who is almost at his peak strength; at the same time, the glory of killing gods will bloom before you.

Chapter 581 That earth-shattering blow!

When listening to Gnaeus talking about facing the Titans, the audience, who were a little bored by the boring puzzle-solving, suddenly became excited.

"Is it finally here?! I told you the previous boss fights were a little too easy!"

"A Discord Titan in its prime, I feel like it would be the top-tier combat force under the Order!"

"Xing: I'm fighting a dispute, is that true or false?"

"By the way, what's the approximate strength level of our little gray-haired boy?"

"The Star Crusher King Bug that fought against Ruan Mei could last 56 seconds before. It should be a bit stronger now."

Then Xiadie talked about Gnaeus's situation, but he didn't care about it.

I will return to myself, a fragment of Nicardoli's divinity.

[Will the corrosion consume me? But to end the madness, this step is unavoidable.]

"That is my origin, my mission. I am not mortal, nor do I fear death—even so, are you going to mourn for me?"

This embodiment of conflicting reason did not give up on awakening himself even after failing countless times. This willpower made many viewers admire Gnaeus.

In response to Gnaeus' question, Xiadie responded.

【All partings in this world are sorrowful, sir.】

Xiadie has always had some strange feelings about death, one could even say resentment, resentment about why something like death that separates people forever exists in the world.

Gnaeus seemed to have seen through her thoughts, so he offered to teach Xiadie one last lesson as a reward before leaving.

Gnaeus: [Do not despise your gifts, do not hate death. The greatness of the journey, the grandeur of the epic, is because all things must eventually die.]

Precisely because everything will pass away, the brilliance that shines in a limited time is particularly precious.

Only when exposed to conflict can civilization grow. People are born to hate suffering, but only suffering can make people stand firm...

Xiadie didn't quite understand these words at the moment and needed time to digest them.

In addition to enlightening Xiadie, these words also gave Sunday some insights outside the screen.

His eyes moved from the plot on the screen to the starry sky outside the window, which he never got tired of looking at. Sunday's mind inexplicably recalled a sentence that he had previously recorded in the train think tank.

If at home there is no law and the people are disloyal, and abroad there is no enemy and external threats, the country will inevitably perish. Then we will know that life is born from worry and death from comfort.

Perhaps in one's ideal paradise, these disputes are inevitable.

“It’s such an amazing journey.”

Then returning to the plot, both sides are ready to fight.

Then the screen shook! The crimson filter once again stained the entire scene, accompanied by Gnaeus's high-pitched call to war.

[I am the Spear of Scourge, Nicardoli—the messenger of chaos, the embodiment of strife!]

[Remember—I am a necessary scar in this world! ]

The high-spirited and passionate self-narration made everyone feel instantly excited!

Then the stone pillar representing rationality shot down divine light, completely devouring Gnaeus!

The stairs slowly rose, as if some kind of existence was awakening!

Then, as if sensing something unusual, Xing turned around and looked back.

The shadow from the present world Dan Heng passed by Xing's side. Looking closely, the shadows of three people fighting with each other appeared in front of him. This shot of traveling through time and space was amazing.
