Chapter 530 - 536: I’ve Been Reborn, But It Seems This Universe Has Been Reborn Too!
"Huh?"Seeing this overwhelming flood of comments,
Tingyun was momentarily stunned!
What... what is going on here?
Am I not the only player of Honkai: Star Rail? Isn't this game supposed to be a product of this lab?
And! Why do these players have such deep feelings for "Tingyun"? I didn't even know I had so many fans!
Tingyun took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down and figure out what was happening.
She opened the comment section. There were literally billions of comments!
"Is... is the entire galaxy playing this game?" she wondered.
As she scrolled down, Tingyun saw IP addresses from all corners of the universe—various star systems and planets, many of which she had never even heard of!
"Is this for real? What have I missed during the time I was unconscious?"
The more she read, the more shocked she became. Through the players' comments, she discovered an unbelievable truth—this game wasn't just a realistic simulation; it was a complete reflection of reality, accurately depicting everything that was happening in the real world!
Although she had sensed this before, confirming it now still left her feeling absurd and surreal. She had always thought Honkai: Star Rail was extraordinary, but now it seemed even more miraculous than she had imagined. It could only be described as a "divine miracle."
Tingyun licked her dry lips. If that was the case... she had to keep watching!
...
At this moment, the story shifted to the Palace of Astrum.
"I still can't believe it. Is that battle report really not some poorly crafted joke?" Lady Yukong stared blankly at her folding fan, her voice trembling.
"The Antimatter Legion appeared on the Xianzhou? And Tingyun... she's a disguise of a Lord Ravager? I can't believe it..."
"That Tingyun, who worked alongside me for over thirty years, who managed the Sky-Faring Commission with me—how could she be a disguise of some monster? Where is the real her now?"
Yukong's face was filled with disbelief. This was the first time Tingyun had seen Lady Yukong in such a state. Her heart ached, but she also felt a sense of warmth. Lady Yukong didn't feel like her superior; she felt more like a kind elder. The emotions she showed upon hearing about Tingyun's misfortune weren't some necessary performance—they were genuine and heartfelt.
"I'm sorry... I understand... I understand. It's just hard for me to accept..."
"Thank you for bringing Tingyun's belongings back to the Palace of Astrum. In this Stellaron disaster, we've lost many comrades, brothers, sisters, and children..."
"I'd like to invite you all, as witnesses to this battle, to participate in the memorial ceremony the Sky-Faring Commission is holding for the fallen. What do you think?"
A memorial ceremony?
Seeing those words, Tingyun was stunned. For the Long-life Species of the Xianzhou, matters of the afterlife had always been a distant and abstract concept. The only ones who placed importance on posthumous rituals were the fox people, whose lifespans were limited.
Lady Yukong... she was personally preparing to send her off! Tingyun was deeply moved and comforted by how much Lady Yukong cared about her afterlife. Few people could witness the emotions their loved ones displayed upon their "death" firsthand. Perhaps... only in moments like this.
In ordinary times, emotions that are often overlooked or unnoticed can fully reveal themselves.
So many people still care about her—
That's certainly a good thing!
But the problem is—
She's still alive!
After Tingyun was reborn,
She did indeed have the impulse to return to Xianzhou immediately.
But now, it seems,
Perhaps it's not quite appropriate?
Her farewell ceremony.
It seems it's already been held!
Just as Tingyun continued to read on,
A voice sounded behind her.
"It seems you've recovered well."
Her fox ears twitched slightly!
She turned around,
And saw that elegant figure.
"You are…"
"Ms. Ruan Mei?"
While going through the storyline, she had also come across information related to Ruan Mei, so she naturally knew.
This was a genius beyond description!
She recalled that during her coma, while struggling on the brink of life and death, there had been a voice guiding her all along.
It was Ruan Mei.
Tingyun immediately showed a hint of gratitude.
"Thank you for saving me."
"You… are the developer of the game Honkai: Star Rail?"
Hearing this,
A ripple appeared on Ruan Mei's otherwise cold face.
"Developer?"
"No,"
"You've just woken up, so it's clear you're not yet fully aware of how extraordinary this game is."
"Developing a similar game would naturally be effortless for me."
"But this game,"
"Every detail corresponds perfectly with reality."
"To this day, its storyline continues to update."
"Moreover,"
"It often moves one step ahead of reality."
"In simpler terms,"
"It can predict the future."
"For example, the current you has also appeared in the preview of the new storyline."
As Ruan Mei spoke,
She lightly pointed at the Jade Abacus.
A video was pulled up.
[Latest teaser from the livestream revealed! Tingyun's extraordinary journey, unlike a fleeting cloud, is exposed…]
Following Ruan Mei's gesture,
Tingyun watched with a mix of curiosity and confusion.
A few minutes later…
Tingyun was utterly shocked!
So much so that she had to place a hand on her chest to ease the impact of the video's content on her.
It took her a while,
Before she finally recovered.
She couldn't help but say,
"This…"
"To think that the inner journey of a young lady could be portrayed so vividly?"
"To achieve such a level of meticulous detail..."
Ruan Mei spoke up:
"Not just you,"
"Me, Herta, and other geniuses have also been thoroughly understood."
"Every character that has appeared so far, including the generals of Xianzhou, the Self-Annihilators of Nihility..."
"He even understands you better than you understand yourself."
Hearing Ruan Mei's statement.
Tingyun's heart was filled with even greater astonishment.
She exclaimed, "Could the developer be some kind of Aeon?"
"Aeon?"
Ruan Mei's gaze darkened slightly,
"An Aeon is a being that has ascended from an intelligent life form. Once a being ascends to become an Aeon, they gain control over a Path and can manipulate the Imaginary Energy within that Path."
"Fundamentally, this is also a natural phenomenon in the universe."
"But the emergence of Honkai: Star Rail is something I still find difficult to explain."
"However... I already have a Conjecture."
"What Conjecture?" Tingyun instinctively pressed.
Ruan Mei, however, shook her head.
"This, you don't need to know right now."
"If you're still uncertain about the path ahead,"
"Perhaps you should continue to follow this game."
"Without a doubt,"
"In the next version,"
"It will be your story."
After saying this.
Ruan Mei left indifferently.
Tingyun, meanwhile, stared at the game in a daze.
Her heart still churning with turmoil.
"Sigh..."
"Let's try to understand as much as possible."
"I have been reborn."
"But this universe... seems to have been reborn as well."
"This little game can actually expose the existence of beings in the universe that are beyond the reach of ordinary people..."
"Let this young lady thoroughly understand,"
"What the universe,"
"Has become now..."
