Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Silver Wolf's Perfect Moves, Are Kafka and I Characters Too?



"Who's this big shot?"

"Is that font reserved for prestigious super VIPs? I've never seen anything like it before!"

"I've been watching streams for ten years, and this is my first time seeing such a font."

"Haven't we already seen Himeko's ultimate ability demo? Is this big shot new?"

Naturally, Guinaifen also noticed this unique comment.

Licking her lips, she addressed the camera, "Is that true?"

"Himeko's energy is nearly full; she should be able to unleash her ultimate ability next turn."

At that moment,

the blue-purple chat message appeared again: "March 7th, continue providing shields for Himeko."

March 7th had just recovered from her restrained state.

Initially, Guinaifen planned to have March 7th cast a shield on herself since Himeko still had half of her shield remaining, while both March 7th and the Trailblazer were completely unprotected.

More importantly, all three characters had low health.

At this critical juncture, whoever received the shield would likely survive!

After some thought, Guinaifen decided to follow the advice from the chat message.

She refreshed the shield on Himeko.

The enemy's turn arrived.

The [Antimatter Engine] launched a powerful single-target attack.

And its target was precisely Himeko, who had just been granted a fresh shield.

This assault reduced the shield to mere slivers, barely holding on.

Without refreshing Himeko's shield just now, she might have been instantly defeated!

Moreover, due to this attack, Himeko's nearly depleted energy finally reached its maximum.

Excitedly, Guinaifen exclaimed, "Now we can teach that Doomsday Beast a lesson with Himeko's Fallen Star Fire!"

Just as she was about to unleash the ultimate ability, a blue comment appeared:

"Don't rush your ultimate yet! Wait until the weakness on the Doomsday Hand's left arm recovers."

Guinaifen wanted to ask why.

Isn't it best to use an ultimate ability immediately upon cooldown?!

If the next attack from the Doomsday Beast were AoE, wouldn't Himeko's energy overflow?

Her moment of hesitation allowed the Doomsday Beast to take its turn.

This time, instead of attacking directly, it focused both recently recovered weak arms onto the Antimatter Engine, beginning to charge a powerful strike.

At that instant, the stream viewers also realized what was happening.

"666666..."

"So that's how it works! Himeko's ultimate ability instantly shattered the newly restored weak points on its hands!"

"Holy crap! That's insane, man!"

"Is this newcomer for real? I've watched over a dozen battles and never noticed such patterns!"

"I suspect you still don't fully understand." Himeko sat in her chair, sipping coffee while gazing at the stars.

"Humans have never concealed their desire to control the cosmos, and naturally, I am no exception."

The railgun descended vertically from space.

Instantly, the Doomsday Beast was engulfed within a massive pillar of fire, simultaneously exploiting its three weakened areas.

"You can't escape this time!"

At that moment, Himeko triggered her Talent's Follow-Up Attack.

She tossed the briefcase, releasing the single-molecule saw blade that sparked brilliantly against the Doomsday Beast, further reducing its health bar during its second phase!

The enemy's action gauge was pushed significantly back.

Himeko's turn had only just begun.

The tide of battle completely turned!

It's now our chance for a full-scale counterattack!

"Oh my goodness! Did the pro account for this too?"

"So that's how you play the game!"

"As expected from a true master, their understanding of the game is truly terrifying!"

"If only I had such insight; even without drawing Five Stars, I'd still dominate."

As Silver Wolf read these amazed comments on her screen, she couldn't help but blush slightly.

In reality, during this half of the battle, she had simply noticed a pattern:

Characters with March 7th's Shield seemed to attract more enemy attacks! It was unclear whether it was due to game mechanics or if March 7th inherently possessed a taunt skill.

So, her objective was to lure the Doomsday Beast into attacking Himeko, allowing her to build up energy quickly. This way, her next move would generate a significant energy boost.

However, what followed—Himeko's ultimate ability breaking three weak points at once and triggering a Follow-Up Attack...

was not within her calculated plan.

She merely anticipated that Himeko's ultimate ability wouldn't be weak, making it suitable for re-breaking weaknesses. But its sheer power exceeded her expectations!

The impact wasn't just visually stunning; considering the Doomsday Beast had Fire attribute vulnerabilities in all three targeted areas,

With just one use of [Heavenfall Flame], she nearly struck at the heart of the game's mechanics!

After all, Silver Wolf had only been observing for a short while and wasn't yet fully familiar with the characters' abilities or systems.

However, this experience seemed to reveal the essence of the game to her. She couldn't wait to download it herself!

"Based on what they said, Himeko is the only five-star character, while the rest are four-stars?"

"Great! I want to draw Himeko too!"

In the live stream footage,

the Doomsday Beast's three targeted areas were completely incapacitated, leaving it weakly collapsed on the platform.

Now was the time for the final onslaught.

The surrounding scientists began cheering enthusiastically.

Meanwhile, in the Live Streaming Room, comments like "Legend, you're amazing!" and "Legend, carry me!" flooded the screen.

Smiling, Silver Wolf quietly departed, content to remain unsung behind her accomplishments.

At the same time,

she summoned an interface before her, remotely activated her phone, and started downloading Honkai: Star Rail!

Why bother searching for the "Punklode Spirit" when there's this?

Is this game really more entertaining than mine? I'm a decade-long fan of turn-based RPGs!

I must personally conquer this one!

[Download Progress: 100%]

Silver Wolf eagerly launched the game, his gaming spirit ablaze with excitement.

Suddenly, a scientist's startled exclamation echoed nearby.

"Miss Asta got another pity pull! But it's a new five-star character!"

"Not Himeko or Welt?"

"Oh wow! It's not from the Astral Express crew; it's an entirely different female character!"

"No way! Could she have drawn Kafka or Silver Wolf?"

The fingers hovering over the screen paused momentarily.

Silver Wolf's ears seemed to perk up instantly.

Did I just hear that?

Kafka?

Silver Wolf?

No way... Is there no limit to your audacity, developers?!

Could it be that both Kafka and myself have been included as characters within this game?
