As the card-drawing craze on the space station was in full swing.
At the same time.
A holographic projection was moving around the cabin compartment, oblivious to its surroundings.
"Is this space station's management so bad? I've been here for hours, and no one has interacted with me. So boring." Silver Wolf complained as she searched for clues about the [Punk Lord Spirit] game cartridge.
When she last came to the space station, she saw many strange things but not the one she was looking for.
So she left electronic graffiti all over the space station as a backdoor program to hack into the station, so that after completing Alioth's script, she could return here and slowly search for [Punk Lord Spirit].
"If the Curios Containment Facility doesn't have it, then it's most likely hidden in the [Simulated Universe] by Black Tower."
Silver Wolf was thinking about finding a way to confirm this.
After all, the Simulated Universe was designed by several geniuses, and it would be risky to enter it rashly.
She didn't want to do pointless work.
At this moment, she saw a familiar clerk walking over from a distance.
The man's name was Leonard, a [Black Tower] network security engineer.
He was holding a file in his hand, muttering to himself: "Damn it, why do I have to do network security management at this time?"
"I just got my hands on [Black Tower], and I haven't even had a chance to look at it before I'm assigned work!"
Drawn?
Black Tower?
Silver Wolf was taken aback.
Although they were all familiar words, why did they become a sentence she didn't understand when combined together?
Could it be that this was related to the unusual atmosphere she experienced at the space station?
What interesting things have emerged here?
She smirked slightly.
She concealed her figure first.
And started heading for the main control cabin compartment where most people were.
Soon.
She saw a group of clerks gathered in front of a large screen, watching something.
It was... a live stream.
And it was a game live stream.
The streamer in the screen was playing a game she'd never seen before.
Looking closely at the scene, it seemed a bit familiar!
"Family! It seems like after the invasion of the Anti-Matter Legion, the space station's clerks are not in a good state."
"It's estimated they will need some time to recover!"
"Next, we'll go report to Aisthe!
The game streamer said.
At the same time, she controlled a character named Himeko as she ran through the map.
Silver Wolf narrowed her eyes slightly.
The style of this game seemed to be connected to reality.
This map.
It was clearly a map of this space station!
And what did she just say?
Anti-Matter Legion invasion?
Wasn't that what happened a while back!
"Could it be that this game is adapted from reality?"
However.
What happened next surprised Silver Wolf even more.
As she approached Aisthe, the plot triggered!
On the screen in front of Aisthe, many red danger signs suddenly appeared.
It startled everyone.
Immediately after.
A claw, as if cast in metal, descended from the sky.
It was breaking through the space station's protective shield at an incredible speed.
"You take the train, I'll stay." Aisthe said decisively.
The clerks gathered around also let out a gasp.
"Wow! It really came!"
"I knew that monster would appear! It's making me relive the terror of that day."
"Station Manager Aisthe is quite responsible."
"This time, we'll be able to witness firsthand how the Trailblazers are going to deal with this Doom Beast!"
But Silver Wolf, who was hiding nearby, was slightly taken aback!
What kind of game is this?
It actually restores the monsters of this Legion so accurately?
She was very familiar with that Doom Beast.
When she infiltrated the space station with Kafka, she deliberately led the Legion's forces in this direction.
Among them, was this Doom Beast!
It was specially designed to hold back the Stargazer Train.
Could it be that the plot of this game is recreating the experience of the space station back then?
As the members of the Stargazer Train arrived at the platform of the support cabin compartment, the Doom Beast arrived as expected.
It descended on the platform, causing a powerful shockwave.
But then!
It wasn't the scene of free combat that Silver Wolf expected.
Instead, the screen shattered.
Both sides took up their positions, facing each other in a standoff!
"This is... turn-based?"
A look of surprise flashed in Silver Wolf's eyes, then she shook her head slightly,
"Turn-based games, that was a popular gameplay style a few Amber Ages ago."
"It's a pity, I thought it was a good subject."
Soon.
The battle had reached a fever pitch.
The Doom Beast's attacks were wide and sweeping, each one causing the characters without shields in the team to lose a large amount of health.
The team's survival depended entirely on March 7th's shields.
With constant attacks and taking damage, the energy of the two characters was full.
"Life and Death are Real and Unreal, One Thought Makes the Difference."
Dan Heng's ultimate ability activated.
"Celestial Domain Transformed, A Long Dream Awakened."
A background of ink and wash appeared.
Dan Heng opened his eyes.
He thrust his spear forcefully towards the target!
"Break!"
[The Left Hand of Dawn] was shattered.
Next was the Trailblazer - Xing's ultimate ability.
"Rules are made to be broken."
"Decisive Strike!"
After those two ultimates, Silver Wolf's eyes lit up instantly.
She exclaimed: "So, those are the ultimate skills of the Train crew, nice work!"
"I admit I was a bit wrong before!"
Next.
She began to pay closer attention to the turn-based combat gameplay.
She quickly discovered.
Each character had different functions and was divided into different attributes.
The Doom Beast was divided into three parts, each with different attribute weaknesses.
And each character had a different speed, a different order of action, and they could activate their ultimate ability at any point, achieving a "queue jumping" effect.
This game was definitely not a simple back-and-forth battle mode.
Even with the mechanisms she had discovered so far, they could create a variety of different situations.
Silver Wolf watched the game screen, gradually becoming fully immersed in it.
She even muttered to herself, oblivious to her surroundings: "In this battle, the release of the characters' ultimate abilities is very important."
"Because the ultimate abilities can quickly break through the Doom Beast's weaknesses. You must use this method to interrupt its charge, you can't let it release that charged attack."
"But the few characters currently available don't seem to be enough to deal with it."
"The three parts of the Doom Beast are all weak to Fire attribute, Himeko is very crucial!"
"If Himeko's ultimate ability is a powerful attack, it would be much easier to fight."
At this moment.
Dan Heng's health was already at the bottom.
Guinaifen wanted to cast a shield to protect Dan Heng, but the Doom Beast unleashed a sweeping attack, and March 7th was directly controlled.
Unable to activate her combat skill!
The next attack arrived as expected.
Dan Heng fell.
The health of the other characters was also precarious.
Guinaifen suddenly felt a little panicked.
She didn't know how to operate for a while.
"Family! This battle is harder than I thought!"
"Dan Heng fell! Miss Himeko is about to collapse too!"
The viewers sent barrages of comments.
...
"Little Guinaifen is so nervous? You're sweating bullets just playing a turn-based game?"
"Wipe your sweat, Little Guinaifen, it's okay, this is just a battle in the game, we can try again if we lose."
"I suggest retreating first, level up your characters and pull some Light Cones."
...
Guinaifen had a look of despair on her face.
She replied reluctantly, "But the opponent is the Doom Beast of the Anti-Matter Legion, Little Guinaifen really doesn't want to lose to them!"
"Not even once!"
"No, I have to keep fighting, even if I'm down to the last character, I can't give up!"
Guinaifen rekindled her fighting spirit.
Coupled with the rousing background music, it created an atmosphere of "The wind is bleak and the water is cold, Yi Shui passes by."
At this moment.
A line of flashing blue text suddenly appeared in the barrage.
The font also had special particle effects, making it impossible to ignore!
"Can the streamer activate Himeko's ultimate ability and let me see? If it's a powerful area attack, there's still a chance."
