Opening the character trial interface.
Guinaifen swallowed hard.
She knew.
Once she tried out Seele, she wouldn't be able to resist pulling for her!
But there was no helping it.
In Belobog, she even rummaged through trash bins. How could she possibly ignore this character trial?
"Whatever, let's check out Seele's skills first!"
After entering the trial scenario, Guinaifen immediately activated Seele's skill and charged at the enemy leader.
The interface on the right briefly introduced Seele's skills.
"Both her skill and ultimate deal single-target damage…"
"Killing an enemy grants an extra turn?"
"To be honest, Seele's skills aren't complicated. Let's see how she performs in actual combat."
[Entering Battle]
"When controlling Seele, the first thing to do is activate her skill. Not only does it deal damage, but it also increases her speed for two turns!"
On the battlefield, Seele shifted from holding her scythe with one hand to resting it on her shoulder.
At the same time, her figure flickered intermittently, as if she were phasing between reality and the quantum realm.
"As expected of a limited 5-star! Even the skill effects are this flashy!"
After activating the skill.
Seele seemed to tear through space, warping like she was traversing a wormhole, appearing in front of and behind the enemy to deliver rapid strikes.
This attack defeated the monster, triggering [Resurgence].
She used another skill to defeat a second monster.
By then.
Her ultimate energy was fully charged.
"Buzz!"
"Let me set you free."
[Chaotic Butterfly] activated!
Spinning her scythe.
She shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.
Her speed was so fast that Seele's entire visual style became increasingly exaggerated, her head taking up half the screen.
"Fade away with the butterflies, phantom of the past!"
Then, amidst a flurry of light beams, she dealt massive Quantum damage!
[Resurgence] triggered!
It was Seele's turn again.
"Is her damage really this high?"
Guinaifen was shocked by the five-digit damage number in the top right corner of the screen.
At this stage of the game, most characters weren't highly built, so this damage number was groundbreaking.
...
[Chat]
"Why is it still Seele's turn?"
"You've already taken four actions!"
"The monsters and allies haven't even moved once!"
"Is this how you play a turn-based game?"
Seeing this, the livestream chat exploded.
…
[Chat]
"This ultimate effect… I thought Seele was going to jump out of the screen and attack me!"
"Is this the power of a limited 5-star?"
"You wiped out four monsters in one turn. Are you sure you're a Hunt character?"
"Good thing I didn't rush to pull. Getting Seele now is a steal!"
…
Guinaifen bit her lip.
It seemed like she was wrestling with her inner self.
A voice in her head whispered—
"Isn't this exactly the single-target DPS you were looking for?"
"The first limited 5-star since Honkai: Star Rail launched. Her value is off the charts!"
In the end, Guinaifen gave in.
The next moment.
A cartoon image of Guinaifen appeared on the livestream screen.
Covering up her top-up interface.
…
"Guinaifen, what are you doing? Stop! We agreed not to spend money!"
"Oh no, Guinaifen has fallen!"
"I've already spent!"
"Pulling for Seele is a no-brainer!"
…
Soon.
Guinaifen had topped up all the first-time purchase tiers.
Before spending, she felt a bit guilty. But now, looking at the tens of thousands of Stellar Jades, all she felt was nervousness and anticipation!
"I wonder if I can get Seele and her signature Light Cone with this many Stellar Jades?"
"No worries, I'll play Hao Yun Lai(song) first!"
She switched out of the game screen, ready to open a music app.
Suddenly, she noticed a pinned notification on her phone.
[Rich Lady's Firsthand Experience! All 7 5-Star Characters in Star Rail's Gacha Pool Revealed!]
This notification must have gained immense popularity in a short time to be pushed to her phone.
Anything related to Star Rail, Guinaifen didn't want to miss!
Especially such big news!
"There are 7 5-star characters in total!?"
"That means there are several I haven't even seen yet. I need to check this out!"
"Folks, hold on! Let's see what other top-tier characters are in the standard banner!"
[This video is based on firsthand testing by a rich lady who wishes to remain anonymous! She spent over 200 million credits to uncover all the 5-star characters in the gacha pool!]
[The rankings are based on the creator's subjective opinion and are for reference only for Honkai: Star Rail players!]
[Top Tier: Bronya. That's right! This Silvermane Guard girl from Belobog, as a Harmony support, provides insane damage buffs and can even manipulate turn order. She's undoubtedly the strongest support character so far!]
[Second Tier: Gepard, Bailu. The value of survival characters in this game is undeniable! Gepard's team-wide shields make everything so much easier! Meanwhile, Bailu has the strongest healing abilities and can even revive a teammate, offering incredible utility!]
"Bailu?"
"Is that the Dragon Lady I know?"
Guinaifen looked surprised.
The next moment, the video showed Bailu holding a gourd, grinning happily, confirming Guinaifen's guess.
"The Dragon Lady is already a famous doctor on the Luofu. In the game, she can heal and even revive teammates, making her a 5-star Abundance character. That makes perfect sense!"
