Chapter 8
Unveiling the Birth and Fall of Pioneer Star Gods, Were the Star Gods Just Puppets of Destiny?

Star Rail world.

“Yare yare…”

On a certain planet, in a mysterious location, Kafka swirled the wine glass in her hand, watching the scenes unfolding on the screen, a beautiful smile blooming on her exquisite face.

She recalled the moment when she had gone to that star system on Elysia's behalf, picking up the fallen Firefly.

She had witnessed the destruction of that planet and the sight of Firefly floating through the stars.

Now, thinking about it, she felt a tinge of nostalgia.

“Tsk tsk, truly a Sam mech, such power is simply too outrageous.” Silver Wolf, who had been playing games, was also captivated by the scenes on the screen, unable to contain her admiration.

Every Star Core Hunter has the power to destroy a planet on their own.

But Sam FireFly is unique, her power is the most fearsome, the most destructive.

She's stronger than anyone else individually.

Even now.

Firefly's strength has grown far beyond its original level, probably not too far behind some weaker Envoys.

“She's currently in Pinocchio, she should be able to see this too, I wonder what she’s feeling, happy? Or shy!”

Silver Wolf remarked.

“Perhaps both!”

Kafka gave a slight smile.

“That's the Star Core Hunter, that Sam, I can't believe it's a little girl!”

“Even if she's a little girl, what does it matter, the Star Core Hunter has slaughtered countless lives, has repeatedly disrupted the plans and projects of the Interstellar Peace Corporation, stolen numerous Star Cores, she should have been killed long ago!”

“I never thought she would be able to make the list, it’s truly infuriating!”

Many executives, even some high-ranking officials of the Interstellar Peace Corporation, couldn't help but speak up.

They all recognized FireFly's identity.

“So that's the survivor of the Grammer Iron Rider, hmm, compared to those mass-produced mechs, this one is indeed unique, no wonder it's giving the company a headache.”

Black Tower Space Station, Black Tower, for once, put down her research, looking at FireFly's performance on the screen, she couldn't help but nod.

Such power, even among the Pathfinders, is considered extremely formidable.

Those mass-produced Grammer Iron Riders, while not bad, are not qualified to be compared to Sam.

“If only I could research it.”

Black Tower muttered to herself, she didn't mind, as an Envoy of Knowledge, replicating this kind of mech, while difficult, is not impossible.

But… she was too lazy to do it.

In the vast universe.

Star Gods observed in silence, only when they saw the endless swarms of bugs did their eyes flicker with ripples.

They recalled the Breeding Star God, Taizizhuros, the Star God who was slain by the gods.

“Poor Taizizhuros, you died so tragically, you were hammered to death by the dumb brain Kripper, haha, I feel so sorry for you, hahaha…”

In the boundless cosmos, Aha's laughter echoed, tearing apart pieces of the Imaginary Sea.

【This is a Pathfinder, the stronger the will, the more profound the path practiced, the more powerful the strength gained.】

【The gods walk between the galaxies, scattering their power, practicing their respective paths, but they are also bound by their paths, unable to transcend, unable to go against their path’s ideals.】

【Like the Destruction Star God Nanook, He is the embodiment of entropy, the master of the philosophical concept of destruction, the cosmic truth. His every move will practice the path of destruction, this is his ideal, also the binding path force.】

In the screen, a golden, blurred figure appeared. He stood between the boundless galaxies, majestic and magnificent, the galaxies seemed small and insignificant in front of him.

Endless golden divine blood fell, containing terrifying energy.

This scene made countless beings in the myriad worlds hold their breath, a sense of dread welled up in their hearts.

It was as if they had encountered a natural enemy, sheep meeting a lion, a natural and instinctive fear.

Everyone understood.

That is the embodiment of destruction, the enemy of civilization, the enemy of all intelligent life, civilization, and planets in the universe.

Super Beast World.

“Did you see that? This is the cruelty of the universe, the powerful act with impunity, regarding civilization as nothing, destroying it at will.”

Looking at Huo Lin Fei and the others, who were stunned by the Destruction Star God, Pluto said in a low voice.

“Hmph, you're the same kind of big bad guy, that's why you’re speaking for him. I believe that in that universe, there are also loving beings, there must be Star Gods who can counter this Destruction Star God!”

Huo Lin Fei snapped back, his face filled with determination.

【Between paths, there are also classifications, conflicts, like the rivalry between the Abundance Star God and the Hunt Star God, the Destiny Enemies of the Preservation Star God and the Greed Star God.】

【Fifteen Star Gods, representing fifteen paths, under the paths, there are also those who practice paths, follow their respective Star Gods, numerous forces that resound through the universe.】

【The Expansion Star God, Akiviri, He is the most human-like of the Star Gods, free and easy, expanding the myriad worlds. His star path allowed civilizations that were once bound to their own world to travel to all parts of the universe, exchange with countless civilizations.】

【The followers of the Expansion Star God Akiviri are the Unknowns, the Explorers, members of the Star Rail, they are renowned throughout the universe, they are sought after by countless forces and civilizations.】

【Sadly, the Expansion Star God Akiviri has long perished, the Star Path opened by the Star Rail was once broken, causing countless civilizations in the world to return to the darkness of ignorance.】

【Fortunately, in the Amber Era, 2157, the Star Rail set sail again, led by several new Unknowns, continuing the journey of exploring the myriad worlds.】

Scenes appeared on the screen.

It was in a long-gone era, before the birth of Akiviri, in the Milky Way galaxy, countless civilizations in the galaxy, their technology had advanced to the point where they could travel through space.

Countless spaceships wanted to leave their respective galaxies, but at the edge of the galaxy, countless Imaginary energy boiled, like a terrifying ocean engulfing a small boat, blocking their path forward.

The civilizations of the myriad worlds dimmed.

At one point, the Expansion Star God appeared, a blurry figure, his face was not visible, but he was extremely powerful, the aura surrounding him was terrifying enough to shake the universe.

Countless beings in the myriad worlds were shocked.

Even the ancient Supreme Beings, the Heavenly Palace Supreme Beings, and other supreme beings, all had solemn expressions, revealing their fear.

The power of these Star Gods is too strong, truly worthy of being the beings who control a certain Dao.

“These Star Gods are indeed strong, but limited by the constraints of their paths, their freedom is far inferior to our Ancient Emperors!”

“Ultimately, they are just puppets of power.”

“Even if they have great power, what good is it if they have no freedom? They are just tools for practicing paths, puppets of the Dao.”

In the Life Forbidden Zone, Supreme Beings spoke one after another, their voices indifferent, they had already seen through the nature of the Star Gods, although very powerful, they were ultimately just puppets.

In the screen, with the appearance of Akiviri, a train that pierced through the cosmos and traveled between the galaxies also appeared, opening up different galaxies, opening up one star path after another, allowing countless civilizations to connect with each other.

This magnificent sight made countless beings in the myriad worlds unable to help but admire and be moved.

Many people felt the same way.

But at one point, as if it was at its peak, the Expansion Star God unexpectedly perished, bringing a devastating blow to the Unknowns who were at their peak, the star paths in the myriad worlds began to break, and the Star Rail finally crashed.

The Unknowns disappeared.

Until now, after a long period of silence, the Star Rail set sail again, led by the Navigator named Kiana.

In the screen, the red-haired woman with a gorgeous dress, beside her were a few companions.

A Star Rail stretched across the galaxy.

Honkai World, Moon.

“K… Kiana Sensei?! And Welt…?”

Kiana was dumbfounded, seeing that familiar face on the screen, her eyes instantly welled up with tears.

The mighty Endbringer, the Heavenly Saint who could blow up a star with one shot, was now like a child, wanting to cry.

“Damn it, that bastard Lao Yang, he's been missing for so long, I thought he had died a sudden death, I can’t believe he ran to this Star Rail world, I'm so pissed off!”

On Earth, in a certain base, Tesla slammed her mechanical arm on the table in front of her, and let out a curse.

“Don’t let me catch him, or I’ll beat him to death!”

On the other side.

On the Star Rail, Welt felt a chill run down his spine, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

“Strange, why do I feel so cold!?”
