『 [ …This illusion is too sweet, making me keenly aware that it is nothing but a dream. ]
[ And this is our final hope. Ena's Dream is founded upon the Harmonious Choir, namely, everyone's shared wishes. It will only materialize once the aspirations of all beings in Penacony merge as one. ]
[ Now, it has become indestructible because of people's desire to sleep in a dream. If we want to destroy it— ]
[ We must make everyone in Penacony want to wake up from the dream. ] 』
『 ....』
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
Paimon: "Make everyone in Penacony want to wake up from the dream??"
Paimon: "This goal… isn't it a bit too big?"
Furina de Fontaine: "There must be at least hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people in Penacony right now, right?"
Furina de Fontaine: "So many people… are we supposed to wake them up one by one?"
Furina de Fontaine: "That feels like we'd be exhausted to death before we finished…"
Stelle: "That's not actually the point."
Stelle: "The point is, we likely can't wake these people up."
Stelle: "Their current wish is to sleep in the dream."
Stelle: "To enjoy so-called fake happiness."
Stelle: "How could we wake them up with just a few words?"
March 7th: "Then what should we do?"
March 7th: "If we don't wake them up, the Ena's Dream cannot be broken."
March 7th: "Doesn't that mean we can't truly escape from the dream?"
....
『 [ But the problem is, how to do it? ]
Black Swan frowned, feeling that this matter was very tricky.
[ Should we just go back to Ena's Dream… ]
Stelle scratched her head, feeling that this was unsolvable.
[ Giving up? ]
[ It's a pity, human consciousness always tends towards reality. ]
[ Since you have already noticed the flaws in the dream, you can't go back. ] 』
『 ....』
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
Stelle: "What?"
Stelle: "Can't go back once I'm awake?"
Stelle: "NOOO!!"
Stelle: "MY BEAUTIFUL ENA'S DREAM!!!"
March 7th: "What's wrong?"
March 7th: "Are you starting to linger?"
Guinaifen: "To be fair, I think if one could experience this thing occasionally, it would be quite nice."
Guinaifen: "Just think of it as daydreaming to relax."
Guinaifen: "It's just a pity that once you enter this dream, it's hard to come out."
....
『 [ Human yearning for beautiful illusions is almost paranoid; this psychology makes people subconsciously resist… the cruel truth. ]
[ I also spent great effort choosing a moment when Stelle had no defenses, guiding her to uncover the truth herself. Only then could she regain clarity. ]
[ But everyone in Penacony… making such a large crowd have the same will is probably as difficult as ascending to heaven. ]
Black Swan shook her head, unable to think of a way to make everyone wake up at the same time.
[ Exactly so. ]
[ The difficulty of this plan is probably not much different from resurrecting an Aeon..... ]
Acheron also nodded in agreement. 』
『 ....』
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
March 7th: "The same difficulty as resurrecting an Aeon???"
March 7th: "My god!"
March 7th: "Is our Trailblazing journey really coming to an end?"
Stelle: "Good grief, if the difficulty of the two is equivalent."
Stelle: "Then instead of waking these people up, I might as well think about how to resurrect Akivili."
Stelle: "If I could resurrect the Trailblaze, I could have THEM solve the problem here."
Qingque: "So, do you know how to resurrect the Aeon of Trailblaze?"
Stelle: "What do you think?"
Stelle: "Just as I can't think of a way to wake these people up, I naturally can't think of a way to resurrect the Trailblaze."
Hu Tao: "Sunday made this so seamless, didn't he?"
Hu Tao: "Could it be that he really can't be stopped?"
Furina de Fontaine: "No, there will always be a way."
Furina de Fontaine: "Sunday is ultimately not an Aeon, it can't be this unsolvable!"
March 7th: "That's right!"
March 7th: "Even Aeons aren't invincible, let alone Sunday!"
March 7th: "We will definitely find a way to break this Ena's Dream!"
....
『 [ But no matter what, we cannot sit idly by. ]
After Acheron finished speaking, Dan Heng and Boothill walked from somewhere and stood with the others.
[ This is a critical moment for the survival of the universe; when is there time to dwell on a broken number? ]
Boothill said with a smile.
[ How come someone suddenly appeared to act cool? ]
Stelle was a bit surprised to see Dan Heng and Boothill appear suddenly.
[ Thanks to Miss Black Swan. ]
Dan Heng thanked Black Swan.
[ A small effort. ]
[ We must also thank the Memokeepers in Penacony; your three companions… should all have awakened from their respective dreams. ] 』
『 ....』
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
Stelle: "Almost forgot, Penacony is full of major factions now."
Stelle: "It's not just Black Swan who is a Memokeeper."
Stelle: "If we organize these Memokeepers, could it have the effect of saving people?"
Black Swan: "Saving a few people might be possible."
Black Swan: "For the whole of Penacony, it would be a drop in the bucket."
March 7th: "Speaking of which, since Welt and Himeko have woken up, where are we?"
March 7th: "Such an important meeting, are we actually not present?"
Welt Yang: "Probably not in the same location."
Welt Yang: "It takes time to rendezvous."
Himeko: "We really owe a lot to Miss Black Swan this time."
Himeko: "Without Miss Black Swan's guidance, relying on ourselves to wake up might take a long time."
Himeko: "By then, Sunday's plan would probably have been achieved."
Black Swan: "This is not my credit alone."
Black Swan: "It is everyone's credit."
Black Swan: "If your will was not firm enough, and you were unwilling to wake up from the dream,"
Black Swan: "Even if I am a Memokeeper, I could not make you leave the dream."
Lumine: "Escaping from a beautiful and happy dream… this also requires great courage, right?"
....
『 [ This is the first step of the plan. ]
[ With the help of the Garden of Recollection, people who are strong enough like you will gradually wake up from the dream. The awakened free will will become a dissonance that shakes Ena's Dream. ]
Acheron described the first step of the plan to break Ena's Dream.
[ But a few dozen people are like a drop in the ocean in front of such a huge dream. ]
[ We must find other ways to awaken free will in units of hundreds of thousands or millions in a short time. ]
Dan Heng shook his head, feeling that a new method must be found.
[ If it is difficult to break through from the inside, seek help from the outside. We have long known there is a way. ]
[ Asdana is a galaxy known for its abundant memoria and the remarkable phenomenon known as Synesthesia Dreamscape. When people first enter this place, they often find themselves and others sharing a collective dream... ]
[ And at this very moment, the entire Asdana galaxy is just one dream. ]
Acheron had already thought of a way.
[ You mean, as long as we can get a large number of interstellar travelers to jump to the Asdana galaxy, their free will will be mixed into this dream, shaking its foundation...… ]
Dan Heng understood what Acheron meant.
[ But those who come in response might also sink into the beautiful dream and become the cornerstone of Order instead. ]
[ The real difficulty lies in how to gather a large group of people as firm as you all in a short time. ]
Black Swan raised the key difficulty in this.
[ ... ]
[ Looks like the Jade Abacus of Allying Oath will be the only solution. ] 』
『 ....』
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
Qingque: "Eh?"
Qingque: "So, this Jade Abacus was useless all along?"
Qingque: "No wonder the General didn't go at all."
Stelle: "Damn, that scene was actually just my imagination in the dream."
Stelle: "But, is there a possibility for this imagination to become reality?"
March 7th: "The plan proposed by Miss Acheron, besides using the Jade Abacus to summon the Xianzhou Cloud Knights,"
March 7th: "There's no other way, right?"
March 7th: "So in the end, we might still see General Jing Yuan teaming up with everyone to attack Sunday?"
Boothill: "Who said there's no other way?"
Boothill: "Ha, such a small matter doesn't necessarily need to trouble the Xianzhou Alliance."
Boothill: "We Galaxy Rangers can do it too!"
Dan Heng: "Indeed, the Galaxy Rangers are also a group of people with firm will..."
Dan Heng: "They have their own unshakeable beliefs and will not fall into Ena's Dream."
Furina de Fontaine: "But the question is, how are you going to gather the Galaxy Rangers?"
Furina de Fontaine: "After all, didn't you say that the Galaxy Rangers fight on their own and have little contact with each other?"
Boothill: "That's right, I did say that."
Boothill: "And normally, I indeed have no way to gather them."
Boothill: "But… the me in the video has already obtained something."
Boothill: "With that thing, gathering the Galaxy Rangers to Penacony is not a difficult task."
Hu Tao: "What is it?"
Hu Tao: "How come we didn't notice?"
Acheron: "It is… his relic…"
....
『 [ —No, there's no need for that. ]
[ No need to disturb the Xianzhou Alliance. You keep that treasure that can only be used once in a lifetime. ]
[ Thousands of free wills? A piece of cake— ]
[ Leave it to the Galaxy Rangers to solve. ]
Boothill rejected Dan Heng's proposal, confidentially taking on this matter.
[ You can assemble the Galaxy Rangers? ]
Dan Heng was a bit skeptical.
[Ha! Outsiders think the Galaxy Rangers are elusive and have no connection with each other, and if you ask me—that's true! ]
[ But precisely because of this, there is an unwritten rule… ]
[ Acheron, do you know what this is? ]
Boothill took out the thing Acheron had previously handed to him.
[ It is the relic I returned to you. ]
Acheron replied.
[ Right. ]
[ Its owner must have told you that this thing is worthless to anyone other than a Galaxy Ranger, and it only works when returned to its rightful owner. ]
[ Because this is a funerary object, only a hero who has made great achievements for the Galaxy Rangers is worthy of owning it. ]
[ When its light illuminates the universe, it means the fall of a hero, and in the direction it falls... ]
[ Countless meteors will streak across the sky. Those 'meteors' are Galaxy Rangers coming from all corners of the Cosmos, driven by a shared purpose, without questioning the cause or counting the cost. Because we abide by a bottom line...]
[ The shooting stars of The Hunt only descend on the longest night, and with them... comes the dawn. ] 』
『 ....』
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
Furina de Fontaine: "Every time I hear Boothill talk about the Galaxy Rangers, it always gives me a shocking and romantic feeling."
Xingqiu: "The shooting stars of The Hunt only descend on the longest night, and with them... comes the dawn!"
Xingqiu: "This is the true hero!"
Xingqiu: "My blood is boiling now, I really want to rush out of Teyvat and join the Galaxy Rangers, becoming one of them!"
March 7th: "I always feel that in just a few words, Boothill gave the Galaxy Rangers a very effective advertisement."
Stelle: "That's probably because the Galaxy Rangers are really cool, right?"
Stelle: "Asking no reasons, counting no costs, only because they adhere to one common bottom line…"
Stelle: "Honestly, for this kind of faction, it's hard not to feel a yearning."
Stelle: "If I weren't a Nameless of the Astral Express, I would probably choose to join the Galaxy Rangers."
Stelle: "After all, I have the heroic name of Galaxy Baseballer too!"
Paimon: "Acting chivalrously across the universe, everyone in the Galaxy Rangers must be a great hero, right?"
Boothill: "Haha, I wouldn't dare call myself a hero."
Boothill: "Just an ordinary person who loves to stand up for others."
Boothill: "If you want to talk about a real hero, the owner of this relic, that is the real hero without a doubt!"
....
『 [ We have been silent for too long. ]
[ It's time to make all the cowards, parasites, and oppressors in the universe remember the name of the Galaxy Rangers again. I will fire the first shot. ]
Boothill said with determination.
[ After the dream is shaken, the second step of the plan will be completed by me. ]
[ I will use the song of Harmony to tune the sleeping people, passing the dissonance of Trailblaze into their hearts, pointing out the direction to reality. ]
[ People certainly have distinctions between strong and weak. If Trailblaze is the mission of a hero, then the responsibility of Harmony is to support the weak with the strong, because the savior of Penacony can only be the people of Penacony themselves. ]
[ Everyone's happiness and path should be created by themselves. ]
[ Although I am not Nameless, I am willing to pass the courage to fly into the sky to everyone who needs it. ] 』
『 ....』

Furina de Fontaine: "Miss Robin's practice of Harmony is really deep into her bones."
Furina de Fontaine: "I feel that it would be hard to find a purer practitioner of Harmony than Miss Robin in all of Penacony."
Stelle: "I said before, this Penacony should let Robin be the Dreammaster."
Stelle: "With Robin's leadership, the people of the Family can do something that truly supports the weak."
March 7th: "Miss Robin is the true child of Harmony."
March 7th: "I think Harmony should bestow blessings upon her, giving her the ability to better support the weak with the strong!"
Hu Tao: "Miss Robin is the child of Harmony, then Mr. Sunday is the child of Order."
Hu Tao: "Tsk, I suddenly remembered a sentence that Mr. Gallagher sighed about."
Gallagher: "It's all fate's mockery. If not for this damned Path, we might have really been able to sit down and have a drink together."
Hu Tao: "Yes, yes, that's the sentence, it's really fitting!"
