Patreon.com/ThatGreatStuff ****** "The clock traversing time begins to move in reverse~" On the streets of Aurum Alley, Lin Yu hummed a tune while strolling through the bustling night market. Having just enjoyed Aunt Gao's Lotus Root Cake with warm milk, he felt thoroughly satisfied and well-fed. In his hand, he held a skewer of vibrant red Qiongshi Bird fruits. They resembled candied haws but were actually a local Luofu delicacy, offering a unique taste and texture. This wasn't Lin Yu's first time purchasing them. As he was about to unwrap the packaging, a subtle blue glow flickered in his eyes. "Someone familiar is approaching." Quickly, Lin Yu made his way to a vending machine on the street corner. There, a small figure leaned against the wall, retching uncontrollably. "Ugh!" "I thought this Soda Soy Milk would be delicious... " "After taking a big gulp, the flavor is overwhelmingly strong!" "My nose feels like it's going to burn out!" "Eww~" Lin Yu approached and gently patted her back, comforting her, "To drink half a bottle of Soda Soy Milk in one go, you're definitely one of Luofu's seasoned gourmets." The girl turned around, accepted the tissue from Lin Yu to wipe her nose, and once recovered, looked at him curiously, "Who are you? Why do I feel there's something quite special about you?" "What's so special about me?" Lin Yu asked. "I sense a tyrannical aura around you!" Lin Yu remained silent, unsure how to respond. "No, wait, I misspoke. There's actually an ominous presence emanating from you!" The girl placed her hands on her hips and slightly lifted her chin. "Don't dismiss it! Do you know who I am? I am the esteemed Draconic Lady Bailu, a renowned healer far and wide!" "You better heed my words and drink what's inside this gourd!" Bailu handed Lin Yu a small container with unwavering confidence. Without even looking, Lin Yu replied, "Isn't that just your leftover soda-bean juice?" "Wow! How did you know...?" Bailu exclaimed, startled. Instantly, the gourd in her hand transformed into a bottle filled with thick bean juice. "Not only did I know that, but I also know you're not really Bailu." "Am I right, Sparkle?" Upon hearing this, [Bailu]'s surprise deepened even further. Quickly, it transformed into delight. With a sudden shift, [Bailu] reverted to Sparkle's original appearance. A pair of smiling pink eyes gazed at Lin Yu warmly. "I knew I wasn't mistaken; you truly are an intriguing person!" "Let me think... Someone capable of seeing through my disguise yet residing in such a mundane place must surely harbor some undisclosed secrets!" Sparkle leaned close to Lin Yu, her eyes reflecting his entire face. Suddenly, her pupils morphed into flower shapes, shimmering with bright pink highlights. From within, a red goldfish emerged. However, Lin Yu remained completely unaffected. Smiling slightly, he said, "Little Sister Sparkle, I also have several pet goldfish at home. Would you like to come see them?" On the sea journey towards Scalegorge Waterscape: Inside the ship's cabin, Luocha, Yanqing, and Welt were resting. The remaining Astral Express Crew members and Stellaron Hunters were engrossed in surfing the web. Silver Wolf, controlling the screen before her, glanced briefly at March 7th on the other side. "Hmph... So you're 'Zhao Xiangji,' huh?" she muttered. "Stealing my scoop this time? Looks like I'll have to pull out something even bigger." She edited the footage she had captured and then posted it on the Honkai: Star Rail forum under her username, "[Account Banned]." Perhaps it was a nod to her numerous banned gaming accounts. With the thread title finalized, she clicked upload! [Major Scoop! Upcoming Characters for Future Updates!] [Beyond Yinyue! Here Are More Characters!] [Hey Friend, Have You Saved Enough Stellar Jade?] Upon seeing this headline, every player browsing the forum couldn't resist clicking to check it out! At present, Honkai: Star Rail's game storyline had surpassed real-life events! Forget mere leaks— Players dared not even guess how the story would unfold next! The previous leak by "[Zhao Xiangji]" had already caused a seismic wave across the internet, capturing the attention of numerous influential figures at Luofu. This time, however, user "[Account Banned]" was about to reveal more than just one character—it was a whole group! "What's with today?! Another insider strikes!" "Are they stealing Feathered Spirit's entire lineup?!" "For real? Is Feathered Spirit releasing this many characters?" "Don't spill any more; I'm starting to panic..." "Feathered Spirit might say: 'Since you guys love leaks so much, I won't bother updating anymore!'" Despite their apprehension, driven by curiosity, players couldn't resist clicking in to see for themselves. "It's certain that Luocha will be added to the card pool, but who is this veiled woman...?" "That's Jingliu! She appeared in Feathered Spirit's short film Soaring Light!" "Jing Yuan's master? But isn't she already deceased?" "Could it be that Jingliu is still alive and heading towards Luofu?" "T-t-this...this means another wave of bloodshed and chaos!" "Friends of Luofu, take care!" Within the live stream... Little Gui dabbed away tears with a tissue and couldn't help but exclaim, "Feathered Spirit, you've truly gone too far!" "Making side quests so romantic and emotional!" "You owe me for these tears, arghhh!" Suddenly, a gift notification appeared on the screen, accompanied by a message: "Little Gui, quickly check the forum! There's another insider leak!" Upon reading this, Guinaifen immediately opened her bookmarked forum. Following the guidance of fellow viewers, she clicked on the new post. "The poster isn't [Zhao Xiangji], the usual big shot? It's a new user named...[Account Banned]?" "This profile picture..." "It matches the one from the person who guided me earlier in the chat!" "Could it be the same person?" "Hey, big shot, why switch from being a hardcore gamer to an insider leaker?" After reading through the post, Guinaifen took a deep breath. "This speaking style really makes me think it's that same big shot!" "Jingliu... seems quite formidable. Wonder when she'll be released; let's keep an eye out for now." Suddenly, a line of shimmering blue text appeared in the chat. [Yes, that account was indeed mine.] [In the future, you can follow my posts. Apart from leaks, I will also create a character strength ranking to help players better understand this game.] With those words, [Banned Account] casually sent over a dozen Super Star Ferries to Little Gui as if with a wave of their hand. Guinaifen excitedly exclaimed, "Thank you, Banned Account! I absolutely adore you!" "I won't bother looking at other guides anymore; just waiting for your strength rankings, oh great one!" "I can't believe it's actually them!" "That familiar blue font! It brings such a reassuring feeling." "Is Banned Account perhaps Silver Wolf's chef? The profile picture screams 'Silver Wolf' vibes." "More scoops coming up? Any news from Feathered Spirit?" "Holy shit!" "You guys really exposed something!" "Even Feathered Spirit has posted an announcement now!" "Hurry! Quick, let's go check it out!!" "Go, go, go!"
