"Uncle Yang, the battle here is over."
"The remaining Stellaron will be left to you to seal!"
"Let's meet on the train later. This Trailblazing journey hasn't been easy!"
"Even the final battle had some absolutely shocking moments!"
"Though you could observe it from above, you definitely didn't get to see it as clearly as we did on the ground."
Looking at the series of messages from March 7th, Welt Yang couldn't help but chuckle.
He really didn't know how to explain it.
Should he say, "We saw your entire Trailblazing journey crystal clear."
"Full perspective tracking, dynamic capture."
"Even the inner monologues and events in the mental world were vividly displayed!"
Forget it!
Better let Himeko explain it to them.
Old Yang quickly replied, "Got it, I'll handle the sealing of the Stellaron."
"Make sure to find Himeko. She probably has something to show you."
March 7th sent back a "OK" Pom-Pom emoji.
In Boulder Town.
March 7th, Dan Heng, and Stelle had already reported the good news of their victory to Natasha, informing her that the blockade between the upper and lower levels would soon be lifted.
The news spread rapidly through the [Moles] intelligence network.
The remaining residents of the lower level poured into the streets, celebrating as if it were a festival.
March 7th quite enjoyed the festive atmosphere, dragging Stelle and Dan Heng to take photos at various landmarks they had visited before.
Dan Heng, with his usual cold expression, said, "With the blockade between the upper and lower levels lifted, we can take the cable car back to the upper level."
"Don't be in such a hurry! There are still a few places in the lower level we haven't visited yet!"
March 7th was enthusiastic.
"Don't you want to see Hook, Clara, and the other kids?"
Dan Heng shook his head: "I'm not good with kids."
At that moment.
Stelle opened her phone.
Her smile suddenly froze.
"Is this... a video from Himeko?"
March 7th leaned over to look and said with a grin, "What's up? Did Himeko and Uncle Yang send us a message praising us?"
"Huh? A video?"
"Did they record the process of sealing the Stellaron?"
"Open it, quick!"
The reason Stelle was shocked was that the video's thumbnail showed her pulling out the flaming lance.
But that had happened in a mental space resembling the universe. How could Himeko have recorded that part of her experience?
Perhaps, it was just a coincidence?
She clicked on it.
A melodious tune instantly filled the air.
And the scenes within were exactly her drawing the lance in the mental world!
"How is this possible!?"
Stelle stood frozen in place, her entire body stiff.
March 7th, beside her, widened her eyes, as if she too had turned into a statue!
The bustling crowd, the noise and chatter of children, seemed to fade away for the two of them.
Their minds were completely captivated by the content of the video!
Hearing the tune playing in the background, even the usually indifferent Dan Heng felt a ripple in his heart.
Just as he was about to ask what the tune was, he noticed Stelle and March 7th staring at the phone screen in shock.
They had fallen behind, leaving a considerable distance between them!
Dan Heng frowned.
He even instinctively thought about summoning his spear.
This situation, why did it feel a bit eerie?
He quickly caught up to the two.
Just in time to see a figure fighting on the screen.
And that figure was none other than himself!
"Reality shifts, a long dream awakens."
"Break!"
The spear tip pierced through Cocolia's back.
Ink-like blood splattered across the screen.
Then.
Stelle's image appeared on the screen.
[The Unyielding Flaming Lance]
"The tip of the lance is ignited."
"Flaming Lance, charge!"
The fire effects almost overflowed from the screen.
A massive pillar of fire soared into the sky!
"Is this... a game...?"
Dan Heng noticed some game-like features on the interface.
But he still couldn't be sure.
Because the scenes were too realistic!
And there were additional special effects added.
"Was this recorded during the fight with Cocolia?" Star asked, puzzled.
"No, no! That's not how it looked when we fought her!"
"What's going on with this video? Did Himeko make this to mess with us?"
"But honestly, your battle scenes are really cool!"
"What about me? Is there any of me?"
"Himeko wouldn't have forgotten me, right?"
As soon as she finished speaking.
March 7th in the team made her move.
"Stand still, I'll give you a blessing~"
[Shield Boost]
"Huh?"
"Wait?"
"That's it?"
"Why do you two get to be so cool, and I just get to buff people?"
March 7th looked aggrieved.
Feeling like she was being left out compared to the other two.
Dan Heng, however, looked serious and said in a deep voice, "Quiet, March."
"We're about to reach a critical point."
March pouted in frustration, turning her pleading gaze to Star.
But her good friend didn't even acknowledge her, completely absorbed in the video playing on the screen.
"I shall forge a great new world with my own hands!!"
Cocolia hurled the condensed meteor in her hand, and the background music suddenly shifted to vocals.
Dan Heng shuddered.
Stelle's pupils contracted sharply, the hairs on her back standing on end!
March 7th looked utterly shocked, as if she'd seen a ghost!
It took a long time for the three of them to recover from the shock.
"This... this is a game?"
"The battle scenes..."
"Feel even more intense than what we experienced in person!"
