Star Iron, building an empire starting with game development

As Xing watched Silver Wolf continue playing Honkai Impact 3rd, using the three starter characters to outwit and outmaneuver the Honkai enemies, she suddenly thought of something and looked at Blade beside her.

"..." Blade suddenly sensed something was wrong, and then he saw Xing looking at him with a strange smile.

"Here you go, Silver Wolf, play this!" As soon as Silver Wolf finished a chapter, Xing handed him a USB drive with a grin.

"A new video?" Silver Wolf took the USB drive.

“Of course, fan-made videos, related to blades,” Xing said with a smile.

"Is it related to the older man? I hope you don't go too far." Silver Wolf thought of the fan-made creation between some star gods a while ago and subconsciously shuddered.

"No, no, you'll see once you release it," Xing said with a smile.

"Alright, I'll get started then." Silver Wolf transferred the video data from the USB drive to his computer with lightning speed, then connected to the live stream and started playing the new video.

"Huh? Death is imminent? Isn't this the PV that was released a while ago? Why is it happening again?" Looking at the title at the beginning of the video, Silver Wolf was puzzled and subconsciously looked at Blade not far away.

The scene begins with a sword called Zhili appearing on the screen.

"Oh, it breaks with the slightest touch," an old man's voice rang out.

"Huh?" Silver Wolf exclaimed.

Kiana: Hahahaha... As for getting to this point, those outrageous videos the Captain watched back then, do they even exist in this world?

[Ying: Indeed, the Traveler has even more outrageous videos that haven't been shown yet~]

[Walter: That voice... sounds so familiar]

[Star: Jackie Chan Adventures~ Uncle Yang]

[Walter: I see, that's Dad's voice]

"Xing." Ren walked over, intending to scold Xing, but saw Xing suddenly change her expression to a pitiful one, which stopped Ren from saying anything.

“…Never mind.” Looking at Xing, who was clearly doing this on purpose, Ren thought for a moment and decided to let her be.

The scene continues, with the blade dragging the broken sword away into the distance, the sword tip leaving a red trail on the ground.

"It's best if the ghosts don't come out. You don't want your father's herbs to be messed up, do you?"

—Exciting music begins—

"Dad didn't even blink." The image shows Blade in profile, with the large character "Blade" behind him.

Bai Heng: Hahahahahahahahaha...

[Mirror Flow: ? ? ? ? ? ? ]

[Jing Yuan: ?! ?! ?! !!! ! ...

【edge:……! ...! ...! 】

[Bai Heng: Huh? What's wrong with everyone?]

[Star: Hiss~ How did Bai Yan appear?]

[Bai Heng: I don't know. I remember I ran into an enemy, and then I was so confused that I couldn't open my eyes. When I was able to open my eyes and regain my senses, I found this live stream.]

[Bai Heng: Strange, where did Danfeng go? And Yingxing too...@%...]

[Mirror Flow: Bai Heng?!]

[Star: I've muted her and located her coordinates; I've already sent someone to pick her up.]

[Mirror Flow: That's good.]

[Star: Everyone, keep watching the video, keep watching, keep watching!]

—"Your lifeline is closed for the day's inventory~"

“I need to take stock of your sins first.”

The video shows Ren grinning as he fights his enemies.

"Father, this sword of hers is four-dimensional."

[Black Tower: Four-dimensional? Is this sword really that powerful?]

[Screw Gum: Inference: Based on Miss Hoshi's various preferences, this statement might have another meaning.]

In the scene, Ren walks towards a wounded Yunqi soldier who is crouching down and raises his weapon.

"I came to check on you, to see if you've done something bad!"

The visuals begin to employ alternative descriptive techniques, using selection to depict the blade's movement and inverted imagery.

"His soul can never return to his body."

"And one more thing!"

[Star: Ah~ That feels so much better now. After all, it's Dad's catchphrase and a symbol of his status!]

Walter: Indeed.

[Tesla: Walter, you... never mind, you're not him from our world.]

Walter: ...Sorry.

Kiana: Dr. Tesla, Welt from our world will return.

"His soul is no longer evil." In the scene, Blade is covering his head, and the camera slowly rotates around him.

"The power of darkness will no longer awaken its evil side. Unless—"

—The exciting background music starts playing again—

"It's about a demon possessing him." The scene shifts to Yin Yue Dan Heng, or rather, what Ren thinks is Dan Feng.

"Ah? Jackie Chan..." Before he could finish speaking, Dan Heng's Cloud-Striking Spear pierced his body.

—The sound of the suona suddenly rang out—

"The story is starting to get interesting!"

"Hahaha~" As the old man laughed, Blade in the picture also laughed a few times in sync.

[Player: No matter how many times I listen to it, the sound of this instrument called the suona still assaults my brain.]

Player 2: Indeed, the sound is too loud; it feels like it can drown out the sounds of other instruments.

[Xianzhou player: That's right, this is an ancient musical instrument from Xianzhou that has been passed down for thousands of years.]

—In the scene, there is the stabbed blade and Dan Heng, but the blade simply raises his hand to stab the Cloud-Striking Spear into himself, then pulls it out and throws it away.

But soon, Dan Heng reappeared, and amidst Ren's laughter, he was cleaved in two by Ren's sword and turned into smoke.

"Haha~ That's so evil. Evil~ Evil!!!"

The scene shifts, and Ren is covering his face as he looks at what's in front of him.

You look great!

With a leap, Ren slashed out with the fragmented sword in his hand, and red light scattered in all directions.

"Ouch!"

After the sword strike, Ren held the weapon upright in front of him.

"Demons and monsters, get out of here!"

[Star: Ah~ This sentence really brings out the flavor of Dad.]

Kiana: Hmmm~ I still don't understand what the captain meant.

Walter: Don't think about those things, just look at it your own way.

"You're even better as the devil, Jackie Chan!"

The screen went dark, leaving only Blade's red eyes. After the words "Jackie Chan" were written, the screen ended, and the game logo appeared.

—End of video—

"Alright, System, can you tell me about Bai Heng's problem?" Watching Silver Wolf excitedly chattering away with Blade, while Blade listened to Silver Wolf's words with impatience, Xing returned to her room.

"The world is full of wonders, not to mention that your three game worlds have been merged twice. Under such circumstances, it's not impossible for characters who disappeared in the story to reappear." The system replied while checking the records of the world management center.

"So, the Great Tree King and Guizhong will also return?" Xing realized something.

"It's highly likely, but judging from the timeframe and the energy accumulation after fusion, it won't be that fast," the system responded.
