Zone Zero: I'm invincible now that the heavenly fire has killed Nineveh!

Firefly hung up the communication and prepared to follow Kafka's instructions.

Or perhaps this is closer to her pursuit of self-meaning.

Previously, I obeyed Elio's script in the hope that one day I could be cured of entropy and gain the right to pursue the meaning of life.

But now that Pinocchio's script is in disarray, let's skip this part for now and try to live our own lives for the time being.

After all, in Pinocchio's dream world, in this world made of memory matter, she could break free from the protection of the Sam Armor and be unaffected by entropy loss, and experience a wonderful life that she could not experience before.

So what should we do next? Should we go find Silver Wolf and Mr. Su Chen to play together again?

Let's wait a bit. They just parted ways recently, so it's not good to disturb the two of them who are having a great time.

Fireflies sat quietly on the rooftop, gazing up at the night sky of their dreams amidst the city's dazzling neon lights.

Quietly, this is just fine.

……

And at the same time.

At the Star Core Hunter's base.

Kafka, wearing a white shirt and a burgundy women's suit jacket, leaned casually against the sofa armrest, her beautiful figure causing the shirt buttons to be tightly pressed down.

She looked at a black cat and said in a deep, soothing voice, "Elio, did you hear that?"

"Silver Wolf is not in immediate danger, but we still underestimated this strategist who suddenly intruded into the script."

The black cat paced back and forth, its fur reflecting the light in its elegant steps, muttering to itself with a hint of anxiety: "He is a drop of pitch-black ink, coloring the entire white sheet of paper. He hasn't been here long, but he's at a crucial juncture."

"We still don't know his attitude. Does he want to stop Taiyi's revival, or does he want to help him?"

"If order is restored, will the Tongxie, which has absorbed order, begin a life-or-death struggle with it?"

"If the war of the Star Gods begins ahead of schedule, the hopes of you, me, and all Star Core Hunters will be dashed."

Pinocchio's future is currently unclear to him, but stripping away all unnecessary details, the most crucial outcome boils down to two possibilities: the Star God of Order revives, or the Star God of Order does not revive.

And this worst-case scenario will lead the universe down a path toward destruction, a future they do not want to face.

"Should we correct him? Let's gather all our strength."

Kafka frowned slightly and asked calmly.

The Star Core Hunters are not without means to deal with a Commander.

In the past, they were used to taking a script and finding the most appropriate entry point to stir up a huge storm with their meager strength.

But let's not forget that in their early years, when they searched for stellar cores in the stars, they destroyed countless forces.

"Identify his purpose, then correct it."

The black cat raised its head, its golden eyes flashing with unwavering determination.

"Let me go."

Ren leaned against the door with his arms crossed, and suddenly spoke.

He had been listening for a long time, and this was the time for him to step in.

If we need to test a powerful figure of unknown origin, who could be more suitable than this monster trapped by the demonic spirit?

There's also Danfeng's reincarnation there, ah, how wonderful!

There were five people, and the price was three...

If he could kill Danfeng and then die, that would be the scenario he longed for most.

Ren felt that the pain all over his body was becoming nourishment for his emotions, and his eyes glowed red.

A crisp snap of fingers.

"Ah Ren, your demonic possession has flared up again."

Kafka sighed helplessly, her fingers twitching slightly, and several threads intertwined to fix the blade in place.

As is well known, the people of the Immortal Ship are blessed with abundant resources and have endless lifespans, but their mental fragility causes them to gradually lose their minds around the age of a thousand, eventually leaving only a body that has transformed into a monster of abundance to wander the world.

This is the demonic body.

Blade's condition was even more severe. As a short-lived species, he was corrupted by the Envoy of Abundance, and coupled with the severe psychological trauma he suffered at the time, he immediately went mad.

When he was seeking death, he was slashed by a woman named Jingliu who had also gone mad, but he did not die. The pain left in his body made him even more insane, and his demonic body was even more severe than that of the Immortal Boatman.

It flares up every now and then, which is very difficult to manage.

This state is completely unlike someone who can communicate rationally.

Kafka used the guiding threads to finally stabilize Blade's emotions after several hypnosis sessions.

She looked at the pitiful man and said calmly, "This time, I'll go. We need to confirm his objectives, not to carry out a scorched-earth operation."

There was nothing that could be done; the Silver Wolf was incompetent and had brought shame and humiliation upon the nation.

Fireflies are innocent and guileless, so they cannot play a role.

It seems she has no choice but to come out of retirement.

"..."

Blade calmed down and silently watched Kafka walk out of the base.

Since his return from the last celestial journey, his demonic possession has become increasingly severe.

Copinoxon has tannins...

Can't think, can't think.

I hope Kafka's trip goes well.

Although he really wanted to die, he didn't intend to let the universe descend into a disastrous end.

……

Golden moment.

Su Chen and Silver Wolf were playing all sorts of arcade games at Edion Amusement Park.

There are few copyright issues in the dream world, so there are tons of reskinned games here.

After another two-player competitive game ended.

"You're terrible."

Su Chen looked at the silver wolf with some disdain and said.

Unable to find a worthy opponent, he sought thrills in the game, only to discover that this self-proclaimed number one gaming expert in the galaxy was utterly useless.

You can't say the food is badly cooked; you can only say it's a 90% discount on a water bottle.

"I am the most skilled gamer in the galaxy, a regular on the top leaderboards for all game genres, and I broke countless records when I was a kid in Punk Lord..."

"Try a few more games, I'll win!"

Silver Wolf blushed and uttered some incomprehensible words such as "a small loss is not a loss," "the enemy is too cunning," and "something is not right."

Although she lost dozens of competitive games, it was just a matter of luck; she just happened to pick games that Su Chen was good at but she wasn't.

If she had chosen any other game, she would definitely have won; that's the dignity of the King of Games!

"I bet you know how to cheat, don't you?"

Su Chen was speechless, and said with even more disdain, "Is it meaningful to change the stats? Is it superior for a gunslinger with one million attack power and one hundred thousand health points to beat a fighter with one thousand health points and three hundred attack power?"

"You've changed the rolling invincibility frames to invincibility frames, and made bullets infinite. You've really got something!"

"You...you noticed everything!"

Silver Wolf panicked immediately.

Even though Su Chen didn't say anything while he was playing, he just kept attacking, so she thought he didn't know anything.

"Nonsense, I just don't feel right playing against you. If it weren't challenging, I would have beaten you already."

Su Chen crossed his arms and said dismissively.

With his skills, he's a pro at fighting games.

Now he can confidently fill out any game survey questionnaire, which is very simple.

Just now, a thousand HP dealt damage to a hundred thousand HP, and three hundred attack damage dealt damage to a million. Just treat this as a no-damage boss battle, it's a piece of cake.

Fortunately, Silver Wolf didn't do anything like being invincible or having his health locked, or else he would have drawn his holy sword and given him a good beating that night.

"..."

The silver wolf shattered completely.

It turns out that even with her stat boosts, she was no match for the experts.

Does this mean she'll have to use a cheat code next time, becoming invincible and able to clear the entire map?

I encountered a monster in the game; his skills were so amazing that he was as strong as a monster, and I couldn't defeat him no matter how hard I tried.

Even with cheats, I still can't beat them. It's so sad, waaaaah...

"Yo yo yo, isn't this the famous Star Core Hunter?"

"I lost dozens of games in a row, and I was so angry that I had a mental breakdown. I cried and made a scene!"

"Waaaaah, so pitiful!"

The short girl in red skipped and hopped in her wooden clogs, whispering mocking words in the silver wolf's ear, displaying great liveliness.

"I didn't cry or make a scene!"

Silver Wolf immediately retorted, then stared at the girl in front of him for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying, "It's you! The guy on that light cone!"

As we all know, Memory Detectives are everywhere and love to take photos secretly, so it's perfectly normal for anyone or anything to appear on the screen.

However, at the same time, the person who obtained the light cone and saw the light cone was obviously very unusual.

So, the case is solved. Her defeat was all the work of this guy in front of her!

She knows this guy, and she even asked him to act in Pinocchio's script. It's quite possible that he would do something like this as the Masked Fool!

"It's me, it's me, it's definitely me!" The girl in red twirled around, bowed, and said, "The brightest little firework!"
