"Then there's no problem."
Himeko's smile, as warm as a spring breeze, returned. March 7th, at the side, wore a "so this is the world of adults..." expression. Miss Asta also let out a long sigh of relief. After all, in her eyes, anything in this world that could be solved with money was not a problem at all!
The girl with the pink side-ponytail scooped up the dumb white puppy Peppy, who was squatting nearby and knew nothing, and hurriedly said to Himeko on the screen.
"The space station's defense system is now open to the Astral Express. The train can dock at our station's platform at any time!"
"I still have to direct the researchers to evacuate and fight, so I'll hang up now!"
"Please be careful."
"I will!"
"Woof!"
The virtual screen closed, replaced by a floating control system. Miss Himeko chose to accelerate towards the Herta Space Station. Pom-Pom nervously hugged his small broom, his soft, floppy ears covering his face and large, crystal-blue eyes. Pom-Pom is not good at this kind of thing! He couldn't leave the train, so he could only silently cheer for everyone from aboard.
Welt raised his cane. With his calm and reserved personality, he had always been the most reliable combat force on the Astral Express. As for Dan Heng and March 7th, they worked together as a team and possessed considerable combat power. Miss Himeko would also provide significant fire support from a distance. Don't ask, the answer is follow-up attacks!
The train sped towards the distant Herta Space Station, which was now under red alert.
And the terrifying Voidrangers, these monsters from the Antimatter Legion born only for destruction, were constantly tearing through the Herta Space Station's external defenses with the blades on their arms and their energy cannons, madly invading it. But in truth, an even more terrifying threat was already... on its way. Not only were the crew of the Astral Express unaware at this moment, but even the Stellaron Hunters who had successfully infiltrated the station had not received any information from Elio.
...
Time rewinds to before the Antimatter Legion's large-scale invasion of the Herta Space Station.
After Elio's script was released, the Stellaron Hunters, with the exception of Sam, were all deployed. That is, Kafka, Silver Wolf, Blade, and Zāwù were all, without exception, part of this crucial operation to seize the Stellaron, becoming characters in the script, acting towards a predetermined ending.
But Kafka had raised a small objection. She believed that for a mission of this level, only she and Silver Wolf were needed. As for Blade and Zāwù... for their own respective reasons, they shouldn't have been deployed.
First was Blade. Any mission that required him was bound to be somewhat terrifying. A crazed Blade could rarely be controlled by anyone other than Kafka and Sam. Wherever he went, there would inevitably be corpses strewn across the ground and rivers of blood.
Then there was Zāwù. He was still too young, too naive, and lacked experience.
But Elio didn't think so. Because Zāwù had an incredible aptitude and talent for learning. He had not only learned a set of sword techniques belonging to the former Sword Champion of the Xianzhou from Blade, but had also been successfully taught by Silver Wolf to become an outstanding cyber hacker. The vast majority of security systems in the universe would probably be unable to withstand his attacks and intrusions now. Even becoming one of the top cyber hackers in the universe was just a matter of time for the boy.
Although Silver Wolf couldn't yet break through the information defenses of Genius Club member Screwllum, she believed that in the near future, the legendary hacker duo formed by her and Zāwù would shake the entire universe! At that time, no Screwllum or Button-llum would be a match for them. Do you inorganic lifeforms have bonds like these!? Your bonds are just binding you up! At that time, the defeated Screwllum would probably say helplessly in an interview with an interstellar news agency:
—"They just charged at me shouting things like 'corrupted friendship' and 'bonds,' and then they broke through my information defenses."
But that was a story for later. The debate between Kafka and Elio finally ended with Elio's one sentence.
—"Don't tell me you're afraid?"
Kafka couldn't explain her feelings at that moment. Afraid? Why would Elio say that? What exactly was fear...? She didn't understand.
But when Elio's script required Zāwù to act as a decoy, to lure an Antimatter Legion force from a nearby planet to the outside of the Herta Space Station, a trace of annoyance inexplicably rose in Kafka's heart. Images of Zāwù's smiling faces from the past month—not too short, but not too long either—flashed through her mind. And his obedient expression, full of attachment, when he called her "Big Sis Kafka." His brows, his eyes, his hair, his increasingly tall figure, his polite and gentle demeanor. Every little bit of him, day and night.
How strange. She didn't understand.
"Illuminate the Myriad Rivers!!"
High above, the boy followed Blade's teaching, shouting the phrase that was said to increase damage. At the same time, holding a Xianzhou longsword, he gracefully flipped his elegant body and rained down thousands of silver-white sword lights. With this "Fleeting Blooms, a River of Dreams" that he performed, he dealt a massive blow to the Antimatter Legion on that strange planet!
You could see, on the yellow, sandy ground, a huge fissure dozens of yards long and deep suddenly split open! The Voidrangers hit by the sword light were naturally decapitated. And the ones who were lucky enough to miss the sword light couldn't avoid falling into the deep abyss, perishing there!
This undoubtedly ignited the anger and pure desire for destruction of this group of monsters in an instant! But at the same time, Zāwù, who had landed on the ground, was also in an almost hopeless situation, surrounded by the Antimatter Legion, becoming a tempting little cake.
"I've already opened the portal for you! Hurry and warp out of there!" Silver Wolf's anxious voice came through Zāwù's earpiece. His earpiece was also from Silver Wolf, a spare model she would never give to anyone else.
"Okay, thank you, Big Sis Silver Wolf!"
"S-Stupid, it's just for the mission!"
The portal opened by Silver Wolf would transport Zāwù to the starship the Stellaron Hunters were riding. Then, the starship would perform multiple short-range warps. This would ensure that the Voidrangers, like monsters in a game, wouldn't lose their aggro on them. Finally, the Antimatter Legion would suddenly appear outside the Herta Space Station, destroying the station's defenses. And Kafka and the others would need to take this opportunity to snatch one of Herta's collected Stellarons. And use it for...
