In the universe.
At a resort on an ocean planet.
On a beach chair.
Lin Yu took a sip of a refreshing drink.
In front of him.
A blue system screen appeared.
["Honkai: Star Rail"Version 2.6 Content: Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age]
[Bonus Content: Version 2.6 PV]
["Honkai: Star Rail"Version 2.7 Content: A New Venture on the Eighth Dawn]
[Bonus Content: Version 2.7 PV, Golden Epic PV: Amphoreus Hero Chronicles]
Seeing the two items refreshed in the store.
Lin Yu's eyes lit up.
He immediately chose to purchase them!
"Finally, the content for the next versions is here!"
"And it's two at once!"
"Next up is "Honkai: Star Rail"Version 3.0!"
"Honkai: Star Rail" is now a sensation across the universe, raking in an astronomical number of Credits.
The system's points are no different.
There's simply no way to spend them all!
After purchasing sufficient self-defense abilities and items, Lin Yu couldn't be bothered to keep track of those numbers anymore.
Now,
Unless all the Aeons descended simultaneously and acted together, there might be a chance to threaten him!
Of course.
This would also require Lin Yu to voluntarily remove all his protective and rule-based artifacts.
He has already reached the pinnacle of this world!
And for now, Lin Yu has no intention of ruling the universe or conquering everything.
He still has plenty of time.
He plans to travel the galaxy as an ordinary interstellar tycoon, marveling at the wonders of the universe.
Additionally.
Honkai: Star Rail must continue to operate!
From Lin Yu's current perspective.
This game will make the real Honkai universe even more beautiful.
As the saying goes—
Let this imperfect story become what we hope for!
"Calculating the time, it's about time for the next version update."
"Let's release the version PV first..."
"Logging into the main account~"
...
[Yu Ling has posted a new update, let's take a look~]
Penacony.
Somewhere in the Dreamscape.
Rappa pushed her goggles up onto her forehead.
Leaning against the nearby railing, she decided to take a break.
Just now.
She had discovered quite a few Sleepy Banana Monkeys here.
It took some effort to clear out these malevolent creatures.
She was about to eat her bento to recover some health.
When her phone chimed with a system notification!
Her eyes immediately lit up!
She looked excited!
She swallowed the fist-sized bento in one gulp.
While struggling to swallow, she checked the latest update!
What new content would Yu Ling release this time?
New character illustrations?
A preview of the upcoming version?
Or a new story short?
Honkai: Star Rail holds an extremely high place in her heart.
No less than Galactic Ninja Scrolls, which left a deep impression on her during her childhood!
Moreover.
The content of Honkai: Star Rail now far surpasses Galactic Ninja Scrolls!
It can be said.
Watching Honkai content has become one of the most important things in her life!
Clicking on the link.
A richly colored cover image appeared.
Rappa immediately noticed the two large graffiti-style words in the bottom right corner!
[Annals of Pinecany's Mappou Age]
[v2.6 is about to begin!]
Pinecany...
No,
Penacony!
Isn't that where she is right now?
Looking further to the side.
There was a girl who occupied most of the cover.
As expected.
This girl must be the protagonist of the next version.
When she saw her face.
Rappa was stunned.
She couldn't help but exclaim, "How bizarre!"
"This person bears a striking resemblance to the Dazzling Ninja!"
"Moreover, she is also a ninja skilled in using Dazzling Ninja Talismans!"
As she continued to look.
Rappa's expression grew more and more incredulous.
Finally.
She was completely thunderstruck!
She slammed into the railing behind her.
So shocked.
That she even spoke normally!
"This, this can't be me, can it?!!!"
...
Across the universe!
No matter what all the Honkai: Star Rail players were doing the second before.
Now.
They all stopped.
And unanimously performed one action!
Click, play!
...
"It's here, it's here!"
"Pa, it came in so fast!"
"It's actually the preview PV!!!"
"Rising from my deathbed, the King of Hell praises my robust health!"
"The earliest episode yet!"
"I heard that arriving early makes everything popular."
"Yu Ling, slow down with the character releases. I haven't even paid off last month's loan yet!"
"Let me take on a couple more [Kill Me Now] orders. I'm going for a 6+5 pull in this version's character banner!"
...
Before the video even started, a dense barrage of comments had already flooded in!
The video begins.
With the sound of a DJ scratching.
A man's voice says, "Actors, take your positions."
A girl dressed in eccentric attire flashes by.
Then.
A school classroom scene appears!
March 7th, Dan Heng, and Stelle have all become part of the student body!
"3, 2, 1..."
"ACTION"
The man speaking also appears in this classroom.
He doesn't look like a teacher.
More like a director.
Bowing deeply to the front.
The video's scene instantly transforms into a film negative style!
A multitude of monkeys and the Dreamjolt Troupe appear within the negative.
As if on stimulants.
They strike various poses in the frame!
The out-of-control Dreamjolt Troupe.
Even chases after passersby in the streets and alleys.
Paired with upbeat music, it creates a sense of dark humor!
...
"Next version returns to Penacony, yay!"
"Did I see that right? Stelle, March 7th, and Dan Heng actually appeared in the same classroom, becoming classmates?"
"Wait, where did this take me?"
"Stelle is a genius! Just born 1 year ago and already in university!"
"This is Penacony, what kind of dream can't you have? (doge)"
"This negative style has a vibe of overly beautiful mental state."
"Dreamjolt Troupe goes wild!"
"Folks, is this person's leak reliable?"
...
At this moment.
The entire screen is covered in color.
The black-and-white negative disappears.
Replaced by the confident face of a young girl!
Casually tossing a paint can!
Then,
She leaped directly off the edge of the rooftop!
A stylish landing.
Simultaneously, she drew her shuriken.
Charging into the out-of-control Dreamjolt Troupe ahead.
Swinging her shuriken as if freely splashing graffiti!
Various vibrant colors blossomed in the air!
"The ninja power here is quite dim."
"Let us paint the colors of Dazzling Tumult Ninjutsu!"
After clearing the mobs.
She placed one hand on her waist and the other on her hat.
Striking a pose.
"Great Lan God above!"
"Dazzling Tumult Ninjutsu, Brocade Ink Painting!"
...
"Huh?"
"Although I didn't understand what she was saying, it was so cool!"
"Deadly Soul-Chasing Spinning Shuriken!"
"Oh my Great Lan God!"
"Does Lan have a new nickname now?"
"The Beauty Idrila above!"
"Order Ena above!"
"Merciful Medicine King above!"
"Lan: Let me see what's going on here?"
"Who is this cool and aloof little girl?"
