In the live stream, Little Gui Zi mirrored the space station researchers' reactions—nearly speechless with excitement.
Once she composed herself, her eyes blazed with determination as she declared, "I must summon Miss Himeko!"
"I could watch this ultimate ability animation all day!"
"Hey folks! This current version of Himeko is just a trial, unlike March 7th and Dan Heng, who were given away for free."
"After this storyline concludes, Miss Himeko will leave our team."
"I can't imagine even a minute of Star Rail without Miss Himeko!"
"The streamer's about to start drawing cards! Oh wait, I mean 'Pulling'!"
Guinaifen switched to a local Luofu song symbolizing good luck and opened the Pull interface.
For a moment, the chat in the live stream fell silent, likely overwhelmed by the impact of Himeko's ultimate ability.
But as soon as they heard the streamer was going to draw cards, the comments began flooding back in droves.
"I just checked—Himeko is a Five-Star character!"
"That pose! Those effects! If she's not Five Stars, I'll lose it!"
"So, where can we draw her?"
"In the beginner pool, of course! The description says there's guaranteed at least one Five-Star character after fifty draws. We might even get lucky and score Himeko!"
"Does that mean there are other Five-Star characters too?"
"Oh Emperor Archer, may my single pull bless me with Himeko!"
"Himeko belongs to the Erudition Fate Path; you should be praying to All-Wise Tianjun."
First, Guinaifen used her free standard tickets.
Without exception, she obtained only Three-Star Light Cones, not even a single Four-Star character.
Unwilling to give up, she checked the Pull explanation again.
"Every ten Pulls guarantee at least one purple, which means either a Four-Star character or Light Cone..."
"After a maximum of ninety Pulls, you're guaranteed a Five-Star character."
"So that's how the gacha system works."
"But for the beginner pool, just fifty Pulls can yield a gold-tier result."
Having grasped the rules, Guinaifen naturally proceeded to open the recharge interface.
"Fam! I finally found the recharge page!"
"[First-time top-up doubled per tier, limited to once]? Wow, why wait? Let me top up the first few tiers right away."
"And these [Train Supply Vouchers] seem quite a good deal too—buying them as well."
To prevent revealing her payment password, a Little Gui Zi emoji appeared on the screen.
In no time, Guinaifen completed the initial recharge tiers.
At the same time, she cautioned, "The premium purchases in this game are quite expensive. Even with the first-time double bonus, one ten-fold draw still costs nearly ten thousand credits."
"That's roughly what most of us earn in a day."
"So everyone, please spend wisely!"
By then, Guinaifen had already accumulated over ten thousand Starexpanse points in the top right corner, enough for her guaranteed fifty draws from the beginner pool.
She turned up the background music for good luck and even went to wash her hands deliberately.
With everything prepared,
it was time to [Pull]!
[Pulling 10 times.]
Behind Conductor Pom-Pom, purple light flickered.
The train doors opened.
On the screen, several three-star Light Cones and a four-star character were displayed.
"Is this... March 7th?"
"But we already have a March 7th."
"Duplicate characters transform into Eidolons? Can they unlock additional abilities for the character?"
Following the instructions, Guinaifen opened the Eidolon interface.
It resembled fragmented pieces of a shattered mirror, each shard showcasing close-up shots of the character from different angles.
Upon reaching the sixth Eidolon, Guinaifen's eyes widened instantly.
"This-this-this..."
"If it revealed any more, my stream would be doomed!"
"Could it be that every character's sixth soul is like this...?"
He swiftly checked other characters to confirm.
After one minute...
Guinaifen silently swallowed hard.
"Erm... let's continue drawing cards, shall we?!"
"It's only our first tenfold draw, and getting Miss March 7th isn't bad at all!"
Inwardly, however, tears involuntarily welled up at the corners of Little Gui Zi's mouth.
Damn you, game developers!
Unlocking original poses with the sixth Eidolon?
Who could resist that?!
Especially since it wasn't fully exposed, just perfectly toeing the line of acceptability.
Yet unexpectedly, this created a tantalizing sense of mystery, sparking vivid imaginations.
Taking a deep breath, Guinaifen knew she was firmly hooked by this game. But what could she do? She simply couldn't control herself!
With her second tenfold draw, another new four-star character appeared. Composing herself, she looked at the screen.
"Hey folks, this seems to be a brand-new character."
"Hahaha, just from the portrait, it looks remarkably like one of my close friends!"
Suppressing a giggle with her hand over her mouth, she proceeded to open the new character's panel.
[Sushang (New), Physical Attribute, Four Stars, The Hunt]
"Haha, not only does the character resemble her, but even the name is the same as my friend's!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Guinaifen froze for a moment before realizing:
"Aaaaaah, that's Sushang herself, isn't it?! How did you end up in this game too?!"
Shocked, she recoiled several meters away from the screen, as if she had seen a ghost.
Viewers in the live stream also reacted with surprise and uncertainty.
"No way! Is that truly Miss Sushang?"
"I initially thought it would only feature characters from the Astral Express and the space station, not realizing we'd get Xianzhou's personalities too!"
"Hold on! Just how many hidden surprises does this game have that we don't know about?"
"Keep drawing, streamer! Now I suspect there might be even more unexpected characters in this game. Who knows, maybe we could draw our own Xianzhou General!"
"You're probably overthinking it! Getting this Cloud Knight girl might just be a special Easter egg or something. Wanting to draw Jing Yuan General? The production team would likely face scrutiny from the Ten-Lords Commission first."
After taking several gulps of her soda to calm down, Guinaifen returned to her screen, fists clenched tightly.
"I just have to see how they've portrayed our Sushang!"
"If the skill effects don't capture Sushang's true essence, I absolutely won't approve of it!"
