Chapter 173 - Chapter 172: My Beloved Daughter Bailu! I’m Developing a Marketing Account in Honkai: Star Rail

Alchemy Commission.

After watching this part of the story.

Bailu felt a mix of emotions.

Although it was just a storyline in the game, it left her with a sense of loss.

From a third-person perspective.

This Heliobus wasn't truly evil.

It even appeared on its own when she fell into a trap.

Bailu couldn't help but sigh, "If only I could release Luxie and play together someday..."

She knew it wasn't very realistic.

After finishing this part of the story, she decided to go to the furnace in Fyxestroll Garden to see it.

Though they had never met in real life.

Bailu still wanted to talk and chat with this Luxie.

Beside her.

Jingliu remarked, "It's wonderful to see Miss Bailu so full of energy."

"It's just a pity that she's constantly controlled by those medical officers, lacking freedom and joy."

"If Bailu minds, perhaps she could bring it up to the general here."

"Jing Yuan, you'd understand, right?"

Jing Yuan immediately wore a bitter smile.

What a thing to say!

Even you, Jingliu, are speaking up...

He could only reply, "I'll notify the Alchemy Commission to take Miss Bailu out for consultations more often and add an extra half-day holiday each week..."

Hearing this, Bailu's face lit up with joy!

"Thank you, Sister Jingliu!"

"Actually, things are already quite good now!"

"As long as they don't confiscate my Jade Abacus, I'm fine."

"In this game, even if I don't leave the house, I can still roam the world as a Nameless, sword in hand~"

The words "Sister Jingliu"

actually brought a rare smile to Jingliu's face!

And Blade also spoke up.

He took out his phone.

And shared his contact information with Bailu.

Saying, "If anyone locks you up again, call me."

Jing Yuan: "..."

Do you really need to join in?

But Bailu had already added the contact.

She happily said, "Thank you, Uncle Blade!"

Jing Yuan looked helpless.

Once Bailu spends more time playing Honkai: Star Rail, she'll realize just who this "Sister Jingliu" and "Uncle Blade" she's just met really are.

From now on.

She'll be able to walk freely across the Xianzhou!

It seems I'll have to visit Bailu more often under the guise of "consultations."

However.

Though Bailu is a bit childish, she's still kind and adorable.

And now, all the Preceptors who had their eyes on her have been dealt with.

I shouldn't need to worry too much.

Continuing with the story—

As the Heliobus disappeared.

Bailu also snapped out of her playful obsession.

She said with some guilt, "Though my memories are a bit hazy, it seems like I did a lot of strange things before..."

Guinaifen comforted her, "Don't feel guilty, Miss Bailu. Just think of it as a dream where you played freely. It's not your fault."

"But... but everyone went through so much trouble for me... I still remember, I'm really sorry."

"Being controlled and confined makes one want to escape. Isn't that just human nature? The problem lies with those adults who always want to correct behavior, those who think they know what you should do."

"I had my apology all prepared... Big sister, you've thrown me off track."

Guinaifen: "Why apologize? I'm just like you. Even though I'm almost an adult, I can't help but miss the days of my childhood when I ran around barefoot."

"Being scolded by my older brother, being told to do this and that, being told to grow up... followed by rebellion and running away, to prove that I could live well without my family... So, I settled down on the Xianzhou."

"It seems that whether it's the Dragon Maiden or an ordinary person like me, most people's life trajectories are quite similar."

"One day, Miss Bailu, you too will have the strength to leave this chapter of your life and move on to the next... So I suggest you cherish the joys of the present and stop apologizing for its troubles."

Bailu: "Big sister, you're quite good at dishing out motivational speeches. Why not hang your shingle at the Alchemy Commission's clinic as a psychologist?"

Seeing this scene.

The chat exploded!

...

"Guinaifen is so kind!"

"Bailu is so mature too."

"The streamer is right!"

"Little Gui is so warm."

"Can someone help me with the Preceptor?"

"Damn, I was laughing so hard just now, and then this tear-jerking conversation came out of nowhere..."

"I feel like I've been possessed by a Heliobus. I can't go a day without watching Little Gui's Star Rail streams!"

"Look at Little Gui in the bottom right corner, why are her eyes flickering?"

"Is Little Gui moved by herself?"

"Streamer, take off your colored contacts..."

...

In front of the camera.

Guinaifen took a deep breath.

That's right.

Just now, she was moved to tears by the story within the game.

Memories of her childhood surfaced...

Fortunately.

Guinaifen is a professionally trained... streamer.

She wouldn't allow her emotions to get out of control during a live stream.

It's no big deal...

Those shameful, painful experiences will pass.

My duty now is to bring joy to everyone!

Thinking this.

Guinaifen's eyes cleared up again.

She sighed, "Did you notice, family?"

"Bailu is practically Yu Ling's own daughter, appearing in almost every version and showing up in side quests too."

The viewers in the live stream immediately responded.

...

"Who wouldn't love Bailu? She's not only kind but also adorable!"

"If you say that, then Jing Yuan is the same. He shows up in anything related to Luofu and always plays a big role!"

"Like in this ghost-catching squad, Old Jing made another appearance."

"At least Bailu is the mascot of Honkai: Star Rail, Jing Yuan is a workaholic, always on the job."

"Speaking of which... General Jing Yuan is so old, why hasn't he thought about getting married and having kids?"

"Jing Yuan: Luofu is not yet prosperous, how can I talk about romance!"

"Poor Jing, Luofu would be in chaos without you..."

"If you say that, then I, Yanqing, won't accept it. I get beaten up in almost every Luofu event, and by different people too. So, what does that say about my worth?"

"What are you talking about! In this storyline, there's no way I, Yanqing, will get beaten up again, right?"

...

Looking at the barrage of comments, Guinaifen's mouth twitched.

She thought to herself, "As expected of Star Rail players. They really dare to say anything! Aren't you afraid that Jing Yuan might be watching the live stream right now?"

Hmm... that's probably unlikely.

The general is swamped with affairs of state; he probably wouldn't have time to casually drop into the live stream of an outsider like me.

Back to the mission!

Judging by the situation, there's definitely more than one Heliobus here.

After leaving the illusionary maze, everyone gathered and sighed.

"To be honest... Luxie doesn't seem as dangerous as the other Heliobus we've encountered before."

Sushang chimed in, "Yeah, this time, aside from the increased physical activity, it wasn't to the point of stopping my heart. But if I had to run a few more laps, I'd have to file for work-related injuries."

"Heliobus are neither good nor evil; they simply act according to their desires and emotions. I hope it'll be this easy when we need to subdue other Heliobus."

[As long as the matter is resolved satisfactorily.]

Bailu said, "I should also go and turn myself in to the two medical assistants who worked so hard to find me."

Next.

It was time to announce this victory to the public on Ghostly Grove.

They needed to downplay the danger of the incident to avoid causing panic while also attracting attention to highlight the Ghost-Hunting Squad's triumph. The complexity of this task was no less than the exorcism of the Heliobus!

Fortunately.

The players didn't have to write the content themselves.

The system directly provided three different content orientations.

[Shocking Headlines]

[Supernatural Science]

[Entertainment Gossip]

Guinaifen tried selecting the [Supernatural Science] orientation.

The specific content was automatically generated.

[So that's it! It's a phenomenon of parallel spacetime entities!]

Guinaifen was stunned.

"What the heck!"

"This is way too convenient!"

"Am I studying journalism in Honkai: Star Rail?"

"No, no… I'm developing a marketing account in Honkai: Star Rail!"
