Chapter 163 - Chapter 156 - Trotter??!

"Huh? What the heck is a Version 1.1 additional update?"

Looking at the new post just released by the official Honkai: Star Rail account, Sister Guoguo frowned in confusion.

"Sister Guoguo! Do you have anything to drink in your house?" Dogzi's voice came from inside Sister Guoguo's home.

"Oh, there are some drinks in the fridge, help yourself!"

[What's the situation, Dogzi is visiting Sister Guoguo?]

[Yeah, Dogzi posted about it yesterday. Her viewers went so wild yesterday that her stream got banned for seven days. Now she has a legitimate excuse to slack off…]

[Hiss, as expected of Dogzi's audience…]

"Sister Guoguo! Why does your fridge reek of fermented mung bean soda?"

Dogzi drank the coconut milk in her hand with a disgusted look on her face. The drink had been thoroughly marinated by the sour stench of the fridge. She now suspected she was actually drinking fermented mung bean coconut milk…

"Err… I bought some mung bean soda for a gag video before and accidentally spilled it all over the fridge… hehe…" Sister Guoguo said to Haihai, looking slightly embarrassed.

"Err…"

Suddenly, the coconut milk in her hand didn't seem so appealing anymore.

Sigh, might as well see what kind of shenanigans Star Rail was pulling now.

"Dear Trailblazers, in Version 1.1, we will be implementing a small-scale update to the Simulated Universe: a new event will be added, which we believe will be of great help to all Trailblazers.

New Event:

Himeko's Coffee

Description: (Omitted)

Effect: (Omitted)

We hope all Trailblazers have a wonderful time in the Simulated Universe.

————The Official Honkai: Star Rail Stunt Team (crossed out)"

[It's the Stunt Team, right? They have to be pulling a stunt, right?]

[Doesn't look fake.]

[Didn't April Fools' Day already pass?]

[As expected of Himeko's coffee, it can actually kill an Aeon!]

[Terrifying! Truly terrifying!]

[A cup of coffee down the hatch, takes you on an extraordinary experience!]

[Your whole being just melts away, right?]

[To be honest, the effect is pretty mediocre. It looks awesome, but in reality, you just lose the blessings of one Path. Unlucky players still won't be able to draw the Path they want!]

[Malicious! You malicious person!]

[Life is hard enough, don't expose the painful truth!]

"Where's the 'End Simulation' portal we were promised? Why is there another stage?"

Wende complained wearily, staring at the world of ice and snow before him.

"Maybe it's a hidden stage?" Stelle pinched her chin, a thoughtful look on her face. Then she looked up ahead, froze for a second, and her expression instantly twisted into one of ecstatic joy.

"Is that the final hidden boss? Have you ever fought this thing before?" Wende asked, looking with bewilderment at the girl beside him, who was on the verge of drooling.

"Umm… I don't think so? Suhā…"

Wiping the drool from the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, Stelle shook her head as she gazed at the Trotter before her, which was as massive as a small mountain.

"So big! What a huge Trotter! What a pity this is the Simulated Universe. If this were real, how much Stellar Jade would it drop!"

Stelle's eyes had already turned into the shape of Stellar Jades. Even though she knew Trotters in the Simulated Universe didn't drop Stellar Jades, that didn't stop her from getting her kicks!

"Hmm… Are you sure you want to charge right in?"

Wende looked at the enormous Trotter. Hmm… a pig, gigantic body size… could it be…

Watching Stelle charge straight in, a sudden sense of foreboding washed over Wende.

"Stelle, be careful! This Trotter looks a little off," Wende shouted a warning to her, his eyes filled with worry.

Sigh, this child… since she cares so much about money, maybe I should teach her my massage techniques. She could open a massage parlor on the Xianzhou, and then the Express would have a constant stream of funding!

Yes, Wende was still fixated on his massage parlor plan.

"Hehe! Trotter!"

Stelle swung her baseball bat, a foolish grin plastered on her face.

If there were a ranking of things Stelle loved, Wende would be number one, trash cans would be number two, and Trotters would be number three!

Who could refuse a wandering 60 Stellar Jades!

"Hmph!!!"

The Trotter, which had been dozing, suddenly felt something hit its lower abdomen. Its massive body angrily lumbered toward Stelle.

Seeing this, Stelle immediately dodged out of the Trotter's falling range, her baseball bat continuing to strike its body, sending waves of black flesh rippling across its dark belly!

"Pfft~ Pfft~ Pfft~"

"Strange, why is this Trotter's hide so thick?"

Stelle tilted her head, puzzled. Her attacks didn't seem to have any effect on the giant Trotter. And from the looks of it… it seemed to be enjoying it?

"Hmph hmph~"

The giant Trotter's snout twitched, its huge mouth seemed to be smiling, and its massive body lay on the ground as it scratched its belly with its short, pillar-sized legs.

"Tsk…"

Seeing this, Stelle immediately circled around to the back of the prone Trotter. She swapped out her baseball bat, and the flaming lance appeared in her hands.

"Puchi…"

"ROOOOAAAAAR!!!!!!"

"Hiss…"

Wende, who had witnessed the entire scene, sucked in a sharp breath. He thought he had just seen a massive "WEAK POINT" icon pop up above the Trotter's head…

"AWOOOO!!!!"

The enraged Trotter instantly flipped over. Its huge body curled up slightly as it glared at Stelle, who was holding the lance behind it. Then, its corpulent body curled completely into a ball… It… it started rolling!

"Hmm… what a strange sense of déjà vu."

Wende shook his head helplessly, then shot a lightning needle into Stelle to boost her strength.

"Waaah!! What is this thing!"

Stelle was chased by the rolling Trotter all over the map. Wherever the Trotter went, it kicked up clouds of frost and snow.

"Will of Preservation!"

Seeing the Trotter's attack getting closer and closer, Stelle had no choice but to throw a shield on herself, preparing to tank the meatball impact head-on.

"AWOO!"

"Aah!!"

Stelle's shield was instantly shattered. She, her lance, and everything else were sent flying into the sky by a single strike from the Trotter's tusks.

"Heh… I told you to be careful," Wende said helplessly to the Stelle in his arms.

"Oh… right, right!"

---o---

"Hiss? Is that a Trotter? It doesn't look like a pure data entity… So big… how did it appear here?"

Silver Wolf, who had popped her head out of the snow like a little radish, lowered the goggles from her head and carefully observed the duo battling the giant Trotter on the other side.

"Mmm, they're so close. No wonder Kafka always looks like such an underdog when she watches the recordings!"
