Honkai Star Rail: Developing Mobile Games on Xianzhou

Inside the Herta office,

the Herta Puppet was engaged in a remote communication session.

Before her stood a mechanical noble—the holographic image of Screwllum.

Herta appeared somewhat impatient. "Alright, that’s enough for now. Make time to come over soon; we need to discuss the new [Simulated Universe] project face-to-face."

"Additionally, the hacker girl you’ve been dealing with is here too."

"I haven’t settled accounts with her yet for stealing the Stellaron last time. This time, she needs to learn a lesson."

Screwllum questioned, "Herta, how can you be certain that Silver Wolf is within your space station?"

After all, Silver Wolf was his longstanding rival, and he was well-acquainted with the hacker girl’s tactics.

Generally speaking, discovering Silver Wolf’s trail meant she had already achieved her intended goal.

"Not so difficult, really. I had someone from the Cybersecurity Division track Silver Wolf’s movements, but they ended up being led on a wild goose chase."

"How could Silver Wolf resist infiltrating the space station to seek the Curio she desires?"

Screwllum gently tapped his head, contemplating.

Herta sighed, "Is this conclusion derived from organic beings’ emotional inclinations? Very well, I’ll attend the meeting on time."

After concluding their exchange,

Herta sent a message to the space station about Screwllum’s imminent arrival and then continued with her own tasks.

She had no interest in concerning herself with what the space station would do or how they’d handle the information.

Unbeknownst to Herta, that day at the space station, everyone had set aside their work to delve into a game called Honkai: Star Rail.

Within the space station,

including Asta among other management staff, all received messages from Herta.

In the past, they would have anxiously prepared themselves, but today, they completely ignored these messages.

Some were watching Little Gui Zi’s live stream of his story progress or Asta’s gacha draws,

while others directly engaged with Honkai: Star Rail themselves.

Everyone was utterly absorbed, deeply engrossed in the game!

After all, even the Station Head was busy making gacha pulls—there was hardly any attention left for messages from others!

[Combat Ends]

In Little Gui Zi’s Live Streaming Room,

just as everyone thought the Doomsday Beast had been defeated, an unexpected turn occurred!

A burst of intense light erupted from its head, lifting abruptly like a timed explosion.

A destructive beam swiftly shot forth.

The unfortunate target caught in its path was none other than March 7th, already exhausted below.

"March!" her companion warned.

But it was clearly too late.

Caught off guard, March instinctively raised her hands to shield herself.

Suddenly, a figure leaped in front of March 7th.

It was none other than our protagonist, Trailblazer!

"Damn, is the protagonist seriously this brave?!"

"That’s love, right?"

"How incredibly cool is he?!"

"Does such heroism exist in real life too? If I were March, I’d instantly pledge my undying devotion!"

The Doomsday Beast’s destructive beam struck directly onto Stelle’s body.

With arms outstretched, Stelle absorbed the torrent of energy entirely, shielding everyone behind him.

As the game’s protagonist and having survived thus far, it was clear to the audience—despite their initial concern—that he would likely be unharmed.

And indeed, moments later...

Stelle found himself transported to a peculiar space.

Above him, it seemed as though the sky had been torn open with a massive wound, from which flowed traces resembling golden molten lava.

Stelle continuously plummeted, as if falling into an endless abyss.

A disembodied voice whispered, "It’s time to embark."

While the previous act of blocking the ultimate attack was both moving and exhilarating, this sudden scene change left viewers’ scalps tingling and jaws agape.

Weren’t they in the middle of a battle?

How did the setting shift so abruptly?

Outside the crowd stood Silver Wolf, caught in a dilemma.

On one hand, the game’s storyline took a significant turn, seemingly triggered by the carrier she had personally printed—the pivotal moment for Stelle arrived! On the other hand, a new five-star character emerged, potentially Kafka or herself.

In two swift seconds, Silver Wolf utilized ether to construct an anti-gravity device for herself.

She then propelled towards the Live Streaming Room’s screen!

Characters were just one aspect of the game; she had already downloaded it, and eventually, while playing, she would likely obtain them too! However, the impact on the storyline was different!

This developer was truly exceptional!

They managed to replicate the characters’ ultimate abilities and powers with remarkable accuracy, even knowing various capabilities of the Doomsday Beast.

All these signs suggested that this developer might have significant origins!

There could be crucial information hidden within the game itself.

As a Stellaron Hunter, her duty dictated that she must grasp this information at the earliest opportunity!

Silver Wolf swiftly ascended into the air.

Hovering above the crowd, she secured the best vantage point for viewing.

The audience was captivated by the scene, drawing closer until they nearly surrounded the large screen entirely. From the back, all she could see were densely packed heads.

As the camera gradually pulled back...

The shattered golden wound was not the sky but rather a deep gash on someone’s chest!

To be more precise, it wasn’t just anyone—it was a deity!

An Aeon! The Destroyer Aeon, Nanook!
