Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 170 Treasure 1: Lowering the Bottom Line Again

Yunzhi wasn't very familiar with the Sea Patrol Rangers. Although he had kept an eye on them for a while, they were still not as well-connected as the Immortal Boat Alliance.

The direct descendants are just different, hahaha.

Forget it, it's better to say things like that less often; it just sounds a bit strange.

When the sea patrolling knights were slaying the Extinction Lord "Jura", Yun Zhi inquired and found that there was indeed a man named Tiernan.

However, no attention was paid to it.

Yun closed her eyes, trying to banish these thoughts from her mind.

Regardless of whether it's that person or not, at least for now, let's focus on what's in front of us.

Why is there an unmarked monument?

It should be the watchmaker's own tombstone, but why is there no name on it?

Gallagher stared at the tombstone, his thoughts seemingly drifting to the distant past...

But he quickly pulled himself out of it and didn't get too caught up in the memories.

"When Liumeng Reef was born, its owner had not yet passed away, but that person said, 'This day will come eventually,' and insisted on erecting a wordless monument for himself."

Gallagher's lighter clicked softly, a flame appeared, and then vanished in an instant.

"They didn't live to see true peace, and they didn't even leave their names behind."

Only in this place of exile, with the few words on the small stone tablet, can we prove that they once existed.

Yun closed her eyes.

The dawn that has never come...?

Lan looked up and gazed at the grand theater that emitted a faint blue light in the distance.

"To build such a massive Star of Gathering on this memory domain would be absolutely impossible without the intervention of either the Envoy of [Memory] or the Envoy of [Mystery]."

Other star gods' messengers do not possess these conditions.

However, most of Fuli's messengers were in the Flowing Light Memory Court and had no time to cause trouble. The messengers of the Mysterious Ones appeared and disappeared mysteriously, and at least He did not find any trace of them in Pinocchio.

So, who could do all of this...?

"These mortals... they really are insane."

Lan's tone became laced with harsh sarcasm.

Yun sighed: "Dealing with the star core isn't difficult, but I prefer a permanent solution."

Lan Shen agreed: "I feel the same way."

Gallagher: ……⊙﹏⊙∥

Do you two really have to say these things in front of me, the watchmaker's assistant?

Noticing Gallagher's somewhat complicated expression, Yun Zhi smiled and said:

"It's not difficult for us to manage this place; it's just that I initially came here for a vacation."

"So during my vacation, I still hope Pinocchio is normal—or just not come at all."

"But I've already decided to come."

So, do you want to decide for yourselves?

Gallagher must have used up all the horror he's ever experienced in his life today.

"I do hope someone can discover the truth about Pinocchio, but I also don't want Mikhail's efforts to be ruined..."

Gallagher was speechless for a moment.

He didn't know how to continue persuading them.

This dream of Noconi was originally obtained by some members of the "family" through a wish made to the star core. Now, they are indulging in the dream, using the "death of the human spirit" to nurture the dream.

Pinocone today is nothing more than a prison in another sense.

It has transformed from a physical prison into a mental one.

Yun Zhi chuckled sarcastically: "In the ancient legends of the Immortal Ship, there is also the story of 'A Dream of Yellow Millet.' Pinocchio created a beautiful dreamland for the universe, but forgot to tell everyone to learn to face reality."

Perhaps no one can distinguish between reality and dreams.

But in Yun's heart, reality is where people have goals and are able to work hard for them.

Lan turned around and looked once again at the large opening opposite the Pinocchio Grand Theatre.

He always felt that there was something inside, but upon closer inspection, it had vanished.

"The Star Core is that grand theater, right?"

In Yun's hand, points of light converged, and the heavy bow, tall enough to reach Yun, struck the ground with a dull thud.

"Then let's not just stand there, let's deal with this first before discussing anything else."

Come on, let's shoot an arrow. Who cares what the star core is? It'll be absolutely clean.

Gallagher: Σ┗(＠ロ＠;)┛

No! Stop!

Pinocchio's dreams are now all supported by the star core. If the star core undergoes a drastic change, it will be questionable whether the people in the dream can even wake up.

This once-and-for-all solution is a bit terrifying; Gallagher can't even imagine it.

But he didn't dare to go forward and stop him.

If you were to be hit by an arrow by chance, things would get really complicated.

At a crossroads...

"Come and see this place."

Lan suddenly spoke from behind.

Gallagher breathed a sigh of relief.

Yun glanced at him inexplicably, then turned and walked to Lan's side: "What's wrong?"

Lan pointed to the large hole: "Is there something in there?"

Yunzhi blinked.

He also looked into the large hole where the memory was leaking.

A hole constantly emanating memories appeared when [mystery] was born.

Former prisoners worked here.

Inside the large hole, a red dot seemed to flash by.

Yunzhi also saw it.

Lan crossed her arms: "What's that?"

It's unclear who he was asking, or if he was talking to himself.

Yun Zhi sheathed his longbow: "It's somewhat like the locust plague, but I'm not sure."

There are indeed many things related to Pinocchio and [breeding], but Yunzhi can't be sure what those things are.

...Maybe it's because the old rice (referring to a specific type of machine) was dropping frames when it was making the footage?

Pinocone is the "nuclear catastrophe" of the Asdna system.

I should have thought of that earlier.

Hipper mentioned the involvement of "Order," and now it seems like she's also seeing "Reproduction" in the picture...

Destroy it.

He was hoping that Pinocchio would be alright while he was there; what a pipe dream.

"Can't you at least let me have two days of peace and quiet?"

Yunzhi silently lowered her bottom line completely.

Gallagher: "That should work."

"OK."

Yun took a deep breath and then exhaled.

He put on a smile again: "I can't have anything happen to me for the next two days after I come with the invitation."

"It's that simple."

Even after the catastrophic event at the star core, we can't expect them to behave themselves. But if they want to play, let's do it for two days, and then we'll talk about it when we've had our fill.

If you still can't play in the next couple of days...

Well, the deaths of just a few people are not worth mentioning.

Then we can just take the nameless guest and a group of people out.
