章 82: Chapter 81: Plot Resolution? What Nonsense? Hurry Up and Release the Next Version Already!
Before the entrance to the Artisanship Commission, Master Gongshu halted his steps.
"I'll bid farewell here..."
"Just a few more steps and we're at the gate. Thank you for escorting us; let's part ways right here."
Sushang asked, "It's only a short distance left. Are you not leaving with us?"
"We all have our duties. Since joining the Artisanship Commission, my responsibility has been ensuring the smooth operation of its machinery without a day of negligence, and today is no exception."
"The students retreating to the gate is understandable, but as their teacher, I cannot show fear or cowardice before them. Accompanying you this far is enough. Now, I must assess what further contributions I can make to the commission." He paused, then added, "No need to persuade me further, young lady. I value my life greatly and won't act recklessly. Go on ahead."
With these words, Master Gongshu turned away, Ditti by his side, leaving behind a steadfast figure gazing resolutely towards the Artisanship Commission.
In times of peril, duty prevails above all else.
However, Guinaifen was well aware that soon, Master Gongshu would shout, "It's over! The furnace is doomed!" before rushing back into the commission premises.
Ultimately, they were saved by the Astral Express Crew.
So there was no need to worry about it anymore.
The mission continued—escort Xueyi to the Artisanship Commission's pier.
Suddenly,
an Aurumaton Gatekeeper blocked their path.
Upon seeing this monstrous creature,
Guinaifen felt overwhelmed with frustration.
"Oh no! We've encountered another door guardian spirit!"
They had faced this type of enemy before. Once its [Evil Punishment Mode] activated, not only did its weaknesses become ineffective, but it also summoned two goldfish monsters. Each subsequent strike from these creatures could weaken Jing Yuan's character significantly, exerting relentless control over him!
"It was this thing that continuously stunned Jing Yuan for multiple turns last time!" Guinaifen gritted her teeth, exasperated. "As soon as the Divine Monarch intervened, he got knocked back again and again!"
"I wish I could just take matters into my own hands and dismantle this door guardian spirit myself!"
[Combat begins.]
After unleashing two consecutive skills, the Aurumaton Gatekeeper's laser swept overhead.
"Blasphemy~"
Just as the tenth-floor Divine Monarch seemed poised to act,
Guinaifen shouted desperately, "Help me! Divine Monarch, please!"
However,
there was no familiar sight of the Divine Monarch's intervention with his signature move, "Leave Jing Yuan Alone."
Instead, the Aurumaton Gatekeeper delivered a brutal charged attack, firmly pinning down Jing Yuan!
It acted with such precision, almost as if controlled not by a game AI, but by an experienced player behind the scenes!
Once more, the Divine Monarch would have to start running all over again!
Guinaifen's blood pressure skyrocketed instantly.
If Sushang hadn't promptly restrained her, she might have started smashing her controller right then and there.
By now, she might have already started smashing her controller.
"Glug-glug!"
The goldfish monsters began exhaling their breath attacks as well.
Jing Yuan's health dropped below half-life.
Just at that moment!
The scenario-exclusive Luocha in their team suddenly raised its right hand.
"Blossoming White Flowers!"
Caught off guard and deep in thought, Jing Yuan abruptly straightened up!
"Many thanks!"
In the following instant, the tenth-floor Divine Monarch arrived as expected!
"Boom—!!!!"
Both goldfish monsters instantly self-destructed, leaving the Aurumaton Gatekeeper severely weakened.
"Huh?!"
Guinaifen, who had been ready to restart the level, nearly popped her eyes out upon witnessing this scene.
"So, Luocha's Skill triggers automatically!"
"And it can remove negative effects from teammates!"
"Wow!"
"That's incredibly useful!"
"It's practically the ideal support for Jing Yuan!"
"Aha!"
"It can dispel control effects, triggers automatically, and provides massive healing... This is undoubtedly the strength of a Five-Star Limited character!"
"For Jing Yuan! I must draw Luocha now!"
"Adding them to any team significantly increases its resilience."
"Yes, yes, well-designed indeed! No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get Bailu or Gepard, but finally, there's a Five-Star Abundance healer!"
Needless to say, Guinaifen was equally impressed. Having witnessed Luocha's game-changing impact in battle, she promptly added it to her list of must-extract characters.
Returning to the narrative:
The journey with Xueyi, the Judge, seemed to be nearing its end.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I see the star ferry," Xueyi announced.
"The rebirth of the Tree of Foundation will inevitably attract numerous calamities. The Cloud Knights are stationed near the Tree at the Alchemy Commission; we should head there."
"Thank you all for your protection along the way. For this virtuous deed, I shall report it to the Ten Kings, and if opportunity arises, I will surely repay you."
Xueyi boarded the star ferry, departing under their watchful gaze.
Turning around, Sushang addressed the others, "Alright, we've managed another good deed on this journey."
"She mentioned 'the Cloud Knights at the Alchemy Commission.' I plan to find a ship and return to our unit immediately. What do you think?"
[Danping District... Let's go together.]
[Should we part ways here?]
Guinaifen recalled that in the main storyline, the Astral Express crew traveled to the Alchemy Commission via the Artisanship Commission. Now, Dan Heng definitely needed to reunite with the protagonist group! She swiftly chose the first option.
Sushang chuckled, "After traveling together, can't bear to part from us just yet, right? Then let's move along."
With anticipation for the next segment of the mission building, Guinaifen stretched lazily.
Facing the camera, she announced, "Finally, the Astral Express Crew is about to reunite!"
"Oh right, I haven't been to the Alchemy Commission yet."
"I wonder what kind of scenery it has over there. Hehe, playing this game feels like going on a virtual tour, hitting all these locations."
"If it's nice, Little Gui might consider doing her next outdoor stream from there."
Just as Guinaifen gathered her spirits, brimming with confidence to continue... a sudden notification popped up on the interface:
[Challenge Completed]
[Rewards: Stellar Jade x30, Roaming Guide x2...]
"What?! This-this is already over?"
"I don't want rewards, give me more content instead!"
After exiting the level, Guinaifen hastily opened the quest list.
She discovered that under the [Trailblazing Quests] section, there were no further quests available.
All she saw were four words:
[To Be Continued...]
She closed and reopened the quest panel multiple times, double-checking repeatedly.
There truly was no new main quest line!
However, he had accumulated quite a few other side quests along the way.
These included tasks from the train, the space station, Jarilo-VI, and even Xianzhou.
Realizing this, the chatroom erupted!
"It's over, truly over!"
"Little Guizi has reached his limit now."
"Feathered Spirit sure knows how to leave us hanging! Just as we're about to reach the most critical moment—Danheng might join the train group or encounter Kafka and Blade, Yinyue-jun could possibly appear..."
"It's over, truly over!"
"Little Gui has reached her limit now."
"Feathered Spirit sure knows how to leave us hanging! Just as we're about to reach the most critical moment—Dan Heng might join forces with the Astral Express crew or encounter Kafka and Blade, and Imbibitor Lunae could even appear..."
"I can't begin to imagine how thrilling the upcoming plot will be!"
"Aaaaaah, I can't wait another second! Need more right now!"
"Hurry up and summon Zhao Xiangji, let her spill the future storyline details!"
Guinaifen felt somewhat disoriented.
Having followed the main storyline all this time, she seemed fully immersed in each phase of the trailblazing journey. Now, suddenly forced to halt, a sense of loss and emptiness washed over her.
"Hey guys, although I'm eager to see what happens next too, Feathered Spirit needs time to develop the game."
"We can only say, give Feathered Spirit some time!"
"Type '[Believe in Feathered Spirit]' on the screen!"
However...
Just as Guinaifen prepared to lead with this comment, gazing at the empty "Trailblazing Quests" section, something sparked within her!
"Wai...wait for what?! Absolutely no waiting!"
"Listen up, Feathered Spirit! Get your act together! Today, we demand the continuation of the story—immediately!"
"I want to witness the complete Trailblazing Journey on the Xianzhou!"
"Now! Right away!"
In the live stream chat,
many had already typed "Believe in Feathered Spirit," forming a queue of messages.
But Little Gui's sudden outburst left all the viewers momentarily stunned for a few seconds.
Then came an even more intense eruption!
"Agree with Little Gui!!!!"
"Little Gui nailed it! That's exactly how I feel!"
"Feathered Spirit, are you listening?! This is our collective bond as players!!!"
"Let's flood Feathered Spirit's account with comments! Take him down!"
"I'll lead the charge!"
