Chapter 340: The plan is set! The new album "INSIDE" is released!
Little Gui's livestream room.
The scenes unfolding in the plot were quietly influencing the landscape of the entire universe!
After Boothill finished his speech, out in the cosmos, Galaxy Rangers from all over began to gather.
As if by common consent, they all started heading in the direction of Penacony!
At this moment, Robin began to explain the next step of the plan.
"With the Dreamscape shaken, the second step of the plan falls to me. I will use the song of Harmony to tune the minds of those who sleep, sending the discordant notes of Trailblaze into their hearts, pointing them toward reality."
"People are indeed divided into the strong and the weak. If Trailblaze is the mission of heroes, then the responsibility of Harmony is to support the weak with strength. Because Penacony's savior can only be the people of Penacony themselves."
"Each person's happiness and path should be forged by themselves. Though I am not a Nameless, I am willing to pass on the courage to take flight to everyone who needs it."
"And that includes my brother. The Order's dream… is far too cruel for him, and for everyone else."
…
"Well said! People can only save themselves!"
"Ugh, I never realized before how gentle and strong Robin is…"
"I'm in love!"
"I'm going to put all of Miss Robin's released songs on repeat right now!"
"To create human happiness, we must rely entirely on ourselves!"
"There has never been any savior; we are all saving ourselves!"
"This is a true Pathstrider of Harmony!"
"Born with a natural Harmony constitution."
"So when is the new album actually releasing?"
…
At this point, Black Swan spoke up. "It sounds like a very meticulous plan, but it still has a bit of… idealistic romance to it. The weaknesses of human nature cannot be overcome overnight. Can these efforts alone truly make everyone abandon the darkness and turn to the light?"
"Indeed, Miss Black Swan. Therefore, the most important part of the plan is not to make everyone abandon the darkness…" Acheron replied, "…but to make everyone choose to save themselves."
Black Swan smiled and looked at Acheron. "So, in the end, it comes back to you, doesn't it?"
"The power of the Choir of One is no different from an Emanator. Ultimately, we need an equal force to counter it. The final step to subverting the sweet dream… will be completed by me."
Acheron closed her eyes slightly, as if she had made a certain decision.
Seeing Acheron like this, the smile on Black Swan's face grew even brighter. "Hearing you say that is truly reassuring…"
Boothill was also very excited. "Since the roles are assigned, let's head out to our respective battlefields! Get ready to—make a big splash!"
…
"Ah?"
"Is Acheron going to make a move again?"
"The players in Penacony are in for a treat now~"
"Acheron: Time is running out [ Smile ]"
"[ Penacony Mega-Documentary: The Emanator of IX is on Our Side ]"
"We still have to rely on her 'modest effort' to be reliable."
"Acheron: Don't want to wake up? Then I'll just slash Penacony to pieces! Let's see if you wake up then!"
…
In the rift between the Dreamscape and reality.
Acheron was sitting at a table, closely following the plot.
Seeing the group disperse to carry out their respective plans, she nodded.
The approach in the game was already very clear.
As expected… in the end, she would still need to contribute her own modest effort.
So, in reality… she just had to emulate this approach.
With just one slash, she would shake those who were drowning in the Order's dream. Out of survival instinct, they would subconsciously want to wake up.
Indeed, this was feasible.
Turning around, she looked at Black Swan beside her.
Regarding the timing of her strike, she should probably ask her Memokeeper friend.
However, when she walked over, she realized that Black Swan was actually highly active in a group chat named "Memory Reconstruction World"!
At this moment, Acheron didn't have any thoughts about respecting privacy. After all… privacy didn't seem to apply very well to a Memokeeper and a Self-Annihilator.
Standing right beside her, she looked at the contents of the group chat.
[ Black Swan: Everyone, how is the matter I asked you to look into going? ]
[ Messenger: The Astral Express has currently landed in Penacony. ]
[ Messenger: But the Nameless have not gotten off the train yet. ]
[ Messenger: For some reason, I cannot enter the interior of the Astral Express right now, so I can only deduce— ]
[ Messenger: The Nameless should be inside the cabins playing Honkai: Star Rail. At the same time, we cannot rule out the possibility that they have fallen into the Order's dream. ]
[ Sparrow Whisper: Currently, a large number of Galaxy Rangers can be observed gathering in the Asdana star system. ]
[ Sparrow Whisper: A group of Galaxy Rangers had already come during the previous crusade against Acheron. ]
[ Sparrow Whisper: Right now, the two groups are converging near the star system. ]
[ Sparrow Whisper: They are waiting for the right moment to charge into Penacony together. ]
[ Black Swan: [Heart] ]
[ Black Swan: Thank you all for your hard work. ]
Acheron tilted her head and couldn't help but comment, "You Memokeepers… actually have a group chat?"
Black Swan smiled. "What… are you surprised?"
"This is our Memokeepers' exclusive channel."
"Though there are other ways to communicate, this is undoubtedly the most concise and convenient one."
"Of course, it's also thanks to Honkai: Star Rail that we've become so familiar with each other."
"Now these two matters have been confirmed."
"There's still one thing left."
Black Swan closed the chat interface and opened a galactic music app instead.
She tapped on her "Following" list.
Robin's profile immediately popped up on the screen.
"You even follow her…"
Black Swan glanced at Acheron with an unsurprised expression and said, "Don't you know yet?"
"Miss Robin's new album, 'Inside the Cocoon', is a collaborative album between her and Feathered Spirit."
"Right now, in the cosmos, whether they are music lovers or not, everyone is filled with anticipation for this album."
"Feathered Spirit…" Acheron's eyes narrowed slightly.
When it came to this person, she naturally couldn't afford to be careless.
Black Swan tapped on the homepage.
Just five minutes ago, Robin had posted her latest update!
[ Preview of the New Album 'Inside the Cocoon' ]
Tapping on the video, a familiar figure immediately appeared on the screen!
To everyone's surprise, it wasn't Robin, but Serval from Belobog!
The blonde Serval waved at the camera.
"Long time no see! I'm Serval, the lead vocalist of Belobog's Mechanical Fever."
"Miss Robin's new album is about to go online."
"As a fellow musician, I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of work she will bring this time."
"Oh, right! I heard that Feathered Spirit also participated in this album…"
"That makes it even more exciting!"
"If the new album isn't released soon, I won't even be able to eat dinner!!"
The screen transitioned.
This time, the person who appeared was… Sunday.
"Hello, everyone. I am Sunday, the leader of the Penacony Oak Family."
"As a praise-singer of Harmony, Robin delivers strength through her songs and spreads harmonic music to all realms. She is the pride of the Family."
"I am very pleased that her new album 'Inside the Cocoon' is about to be officially released."
"And as her older brother, I also deeply appreciate everyone's continuous support for Robin."
"Thank you."
Sunday bowed slightly, expressing his respect and gratitude to everyone before the screen.
And the video's bullet comments erupted like a volcano!
…
"Bro Sunday!"
"The Emperor of Sunday!"
"Wait, Brother Sunday, instead of hosting the Order's dream, why did you jump out to promote your sister's new album?!"
"What in the world, I actually saw Sunday here again!"
"This must have been recorded before he initiated the Order's dream, right?"
"We never saw him this happy in the main plot!"
"As expected, nothing in the world can stop Brother Sunday from supporting his sister!"
"Saying 'she is the pride of the Family' is just too gentle, isn't it?"
"Miss you, Brother Sunday!"
