"In ancient legends, the progenitor of the Borisin, Dulan, was dissatisfied with his limited life and power. He yearned to dominate the skies, to become the master of the stars."
Hoolay spoke gravely,
"To this end, he sacrificed countless lives of Borisin and foxians, injecting the spring water blessed by the Lord of Longevity. Under the influence of genetic sorcery, the water gave birth to a miracle—the Lunar Embryo."
"After ascending to the birthing bed of the moon, Dulan obtained what he had always dreamed of—a heart shaped like a crimson full moon. Dulan cut open his chest and replaced his own heart with this moon."
"This heart-moon has pulsed through the bodies of Borisin war chiefs for generations. The ritual to determine the next war chief involves the successor cutting open the chest of the predecessor, consuming this divine flesh, allowing the strong to possess it!"
"Devouring, this is the true essence of life's continuation and growth. It condenses the life essence of the prey we devour, making us stronger and more formidable!"
"After enduring seven hundred years of punishment, I once thought all hope was lost, but now, this heart has begun to beat once more."
This scene from the story.
Was broadcast across the universe.
The greatest secret of the Borisin was now fully exposed!
...
"Ah..."
"So this is... the secret of the Borisin war chiefs..."
"Holy crap!"
"One war chief eats another, and then inherits the Crimson Moon? My god..."
"So the Borisin war chiefs are each stronger than the last, otherwise they couldn't defeat their predecessors."
"That's why the Borisin have been in decline ever since Hoolay was captured by Jingliu, with no war chief to lead them. The answer is, only a Borisin who possesses the Crimson Moon can become a true war chief!"
"No wonder we must rescue Hoolay to lead the Borisin, because we're missing that heart!"
"What exactly is this Crimson Moon?"
"The Lunar Embryo and the Crimson Moon, the Ambrosial Arbor and its fruit."
"No wonder he's been unkillable! He actually has Abundance's blessing within him!"
...
At the auction venue.
After Hoolay revealed the secret he had kept hidden for over 700 years...
Almost everyone.
Their eyes burned with desire!
"It's the Crimson Moon!"
"A miracle of Abundance!"
"Damn those Borisin, they actually have something like this!"
"Damn it, I almost had it!"
"I bid 4 billion!"
The host looked at the scene in disbelief!
Just moments ago, it was only 2.5 billion!
In an instant.
The price skyrocketed!
Almost doubling!
It was terrifying!
All of this was thanks to Honkai: Star Rail.
Hoolay's words and actions in the storyline were undoubtedly an excellent act of self-promotion.
Causing his value to soar in such a short time!
...
The Shackling Prison.
Feixiao patted Jiaoqiu on the shoulder.
"Not bad, staying calm under pressure and even extracting the secrets from the Borisin war chief."
"Jiaoqiu, this time, you've made a great contribution."
However.
Facing Feixiao's praise.
Jiaoqiu remained unmoved.
Staring at Hoolay in the storyline.
Lost in deep thought.
"What are you thinking about?"
Jiaoqiu finally snapped out of it.
He spoke, "I'm thinking, if there's really a chance to use Hoolay as medicine, now we only need one thing from him."
"—The wolf's heart."
Feixiao: "..."
"You don't actually think Hoolay can cure lunacy, do you?"
"There's no way I'd ever eat something like that."
Feixiao crossed her arms.
Looking as if she'd rather die than eat the heart of a Borisin war chief.
Her attention returned to the storyline.
"I should probably make my move now."
Feixiao murmured.
Sure enough.
Next.
The perspective shifted to the protagonist's side.
Feixiao suggested abandoning the large-scale hunt and instead focusing on understanding the prey's thoughts and desires.
She explained that this was a tactic of leaving one side open while surrounding the other.
After some questioning.
They indeed found something suspicious!
Two Sky-Faring Commission employees, without receiving any orders, had privately sealed off Stargazer Navalia.
The group turned back.
Confronting the two once again.
"Why are you all still here? I just said, Stargazer Navalia has been sealed off."
This time, Feixiao didn't hold back, saying directly, "I never gave such an order."
"Who are you?"
"You may have never seen me on the battlefield, but you've surely heard my name. But who gave you the right to answer a question with a question! Tell me—"
As she spoke.
Feixiao's tone shifted from polite to overwhelmingly oppressive!
"How many accomplices do you have? Where was the original plan to rendezvous with Hoolay?"
The two Sky-Faring Commission employees were instantly terrified!
"That woman… she's the general of Yaoqing! What are you waiting for, attack!"
Combat ensued.
The Borisin also revealed their wolf soldier forms.
These small fry were naturally no match.
The battle ended quickly.
Feixiao left one alive.
Preparing to interrogate him.
The wolf soldier spoke first, "As someone who was once a war slave, you should be quite familiar with us, the descendants of Dulam..."
"Go ahead, try it. Use whatever methods you know to force me to talk. All I can offer you... is blood and fangs."
"Too bad you couldn't catch my comrade... He will warn the others—"
Feixiao, however, smiled faintly.
She calmly walked up to the wolf soldier.
"Before you close your eyes, you should know that it was I who allowed him to escape. Your comrade will lead the Cloud Cavalry to Hoolay's whereabouts."
"Ahhhh—!!!"
The wolf soldier's scream echoed.
Feixiao's methods were beginning to show!
Seeing this scene.
The barrage of comments instantly started rolling!
...
"Holy crap! Is this the general's method?"
"Borisin: Completely broken!"
"My god! She knows hunting too well!"
"Feixiao is amazing!"
"Big sister is so domineering!"
"I'm totally in love!"
"Damn, I'm completely conquered by Feixiao! How can this woman be so cool and so strong!"
"I can't take it! I must pull Feixiao to max Eidolons and farm her a perfect ultimate Relic set!"
...
Seeing the barrage of comments.
Feixiao smiled confidently.
It has to be said.
This Star Rail...
Really knows how to do it!
In just a few hours of storyline.
The content it presented.
Far surpassed any accumulation of rhetoric, any gorgeous description, and struck a deeper chord in people's hearts!
And in the storyline, she herself wasn't overly proud.
Instead, she calmly said, "This is the most common hunting tactic of the Borisin."
"I know these abominations' methods too well. They always leave an escape route, letting the prey flee in panic. Then comes the almost playful chase and hunt, and in the victims' misery, the Borisin always find immense satisfaction..."
Yanqing was already impressed by Feixiao's methods.
He exclaimed, "So this is what 'leaving a way out' means...? Letting the Borisin escape, then hunting them down along their route."
"Were these things you witnessed personally? That guy called you... a war slave, so what exactly did you go through?"
...
"Yanqing really asked the question I most wanted to know."
"General Feixiao has a past she doesn't want to recall..."
"It seems related to the former general of Yaoging."
"I've got my tissues ready, just tell us."
"I'm just silently eating melon on the side."
"Yanqing: A new big melon has appeared, how can we stop moving forward!"
"Is it coming..."
...
