Chapitre 50: Chapter 49: The Stellaron Hunter's Performance - Breaking Conventions!
"Ding!"
"Ding!"
In Aurum Alley, within the villa,
Lin Yu picked up his phone and opened the latest message.
It was from Guinaifen:
"HAHAHA, thank you so much, buddy!"
"I wouldn't have discovered such an amazing game if not for your recommendation!"
"You're truly my lucky charm, bro!"
"Gotta run, I'm heading to stream now. Let's catch up over dinner another day!"
Even Guinaifen's profile signature had changed:
[Yueling, My Divine Hero!]
Lin Yu smiled warmly.
Little did Guinaifen suspect that the guy she had encountered that evening was none other than Feathered Spirit—the renowned developer behind the game sensation Honkai: Star Rail. Interestingly, if one reversed the name "Feathered Spirit," it revealed his true identity.
As Lin Yu read this signature line, he suddenly realized a crucial issue!
Even ordinary players like Guinaifen recognized "Feathered Spirit" as an incredibly influential figure.
Could it be that Kafka and her team were unaware of this fact? Were all Stellaron Hunters so naive? Was everything proceeding too smoothly? Did they believe every word he said without question?
If even regular gamers wouldn't trust such claims, how much less likely would Stellaron Hunters do so?
Upon closer thought, something felt distinctly off!
At that moment, another message arrived on his phone.
It was from Silver Wolf's secondary account: "I've reached Luofu now. Where are you?"
Lin Yu quickly focused his attention on the message.
Activating [Eyes of Prying]!
A three-dimensional scene materialized before him.
In a secluded area of the Exalting Sanctum, a woman with subtle makeup stood patiently waiting.
This was Kafka's disguise.
From appearance alone, they looked like an ordinary office worker, bearing no resemblance to their true identity.
Kafka's masking skills were indeed exceptional!
However...
Lin Yu realized he had made a fatal mistake.
"I underestimated the Stellaron Hunters once again!"
Quickly responding in the chat window, Lin Yu wrote, "Do you truly believe I am [Feathered Spirit]? Just another ordinary outlander?"
Kafka picked up their phone and replied, "What else could it be? Wanting to meet one's idol isn't unusual, right?"
Seeing this response confirmed his suspicions.
His gaze shifted towards Kafka.
The Eyes of Prying not only revealed the target's actions but also delved into their psychological state and behavioral patterns, allowing direct insight into their inner thoughts!
As soon as he probed deeper, a cool voice echoed—
"Is it you who has been secretly watching me?"
Lin Yu's hand trembled slightly.
Indeed!
Almost fell for their trap!
Continuing to probe deeper:
"Elio mentioned that you might possess [Insight] and [Record] abilities, so... Silver Wolf and I staged this performance."
"If we acted convincingly enough, you would likely lower your guard, wouldn't you?"
Wow, impressive...
Upon uncovering this truth, Lin Yu couldn't resist wanting to applaud the Stellaron Hunters.
They had cleverly turned the tables on him!
Through calculations and deductions, Elio concluded that Lin Yu possibly held similar [Insight] capabilities.
As a result,
they assumed he was constantly observing them!
And all the interactions witnessed earlier were merely performances!
Fortunately,
Lin Yu's ability not only allowed external observation but also insight into internal thoughts.
Kafka's mental activity continued:
"Why no response?
"Feathered Spirit, have you uncovered something..."
"BEEP!"
A notification sound interrupted Kafka's thoughts.
Lin Yu focused his consciousness and glimpsed the content on Kafka's phone screen.
The sender's profile picture depicted a black cat.
The name was... [Elio].
"Operation aborted. You've been discovered."
Seeing this message, Kafka shrugged helplessly.
Removing her glasses, she spoke towards the seemingly empty space ahead, "It truly was an engaging game of wits, don't you agree, Feathered Spirit?"
Lin Yu let out a resigned sigh.
As expected of the Stellaron Hunters; they weren't so easily manipulated.
At that moment,
another message appeared in Kafka's chat window:
"In the script of fate, your trajectory alone remains undetectable."
Lin Yu knew this message wasn't intended for Kafka but specifically directed at him.
"Feathered Spirit, I am truly delighted by your existence within this universe."
Following this, "Elio" didn't add anything more.
Kafka pocketed his phone and spoke to the empty air before him, "Feathered Spirit... honestly, I'm quite curious about who or what you really are."
"I'll continue experiencing this game you've created. When my character takes center stage, remember to make it particularly refined, okay?~"
"Now, it's time to participate in the next scenario."
"And if you're still watching me..."
"It would be an honor to present the upcoming performance, just for you."
Kafka waved casually.
From Lin Yu's perspective, it felt as though Kafka was addressing him directly.
"Not surprising from someone like you..." Lin Yu murmured.
He opened the system interface, unsure whether he should feel happy or disappointed. On second thought, effortlessly manipulating the Stellaron Hunters would indeed have been rather dull.

"First, focus on managing the game well..."
"Let's set a small goal: Draw an Aeon-level ability!"
