Collapse Iron: After transmigrating, he was exposed to the entire universe by the Last King.

Just after playing the video, Elio suddenly felt a pang of heart palpitation, a feeling he had experienced before when the script reached the point of the Immortal Boat Luofu.

Back then, because of Jiang Lin's involvement, the script was a complete mess, but now...

Elio hesitated for a moment: "No way..."

So, the hardworking Mr. Elio started working overtime on site.

And this led to...

March 7th: Huh? Streamer, streamer, it's been so long, no video and no words, isn't it over yet?

"Qingque: Indeed, I've already finished a game."

Fu Xuan: @Qingque, I... never mind, I'm too lazy to even talk to you anymore. Get back to work!

"Jadeite: @Jiang Lin, I understand your conditions. The company will process them as soon as possible. Please do not forget your agreement with us."

"Topa: @JiangLin, after careful consideration, we have agreed to abide by your conditions, but we have decided to terminate another condition of the deal..."

Jiang Lin: Oh? It seems you have a new plan. Never mind, you should know what I care about most. Don't disappoint me.

"Star: What kind of riddle are you guys playing?"

"Gold Sands: @Sunday, I plan to submit my resignation. When should I collect my foundation stone and key money?"

March 7th: Huh? This... the Harmony Festival hasn't even started yet... why are we leaving already?

Himeko: I suppose this Mr. Sand Gold's purpose isn't really the Harutsu-gaku Grand Ceremony?

Fireworks: Hehe, this is getting more and more chaotic.

Oswaldo Schneider: What are you guys doing? You're just going to give up on such an important project like this?! Humph, you might as well have given it to me.

Diamond: Huh? Who gave you the right to speak?

"Potio: Holy crap, @Oswaldo Schneider, you little brat, you've finally shown yourself! Tell me where you are?"

Meanwhile, Jiang Lin had already entered Pinocchio's dream through the Dream Pool.

When Jiang Lin opened his eyes again, he found himself above a luxurious city.

The whistling wind passed by his ears as Jiang Lin's body continued to fall downwards.

In an instant, Jiang Lin realized his predicament. He looked around and then froze in mid-air.

Then they landed at a secluded alleyway.

Naturally, some people witnessed the event, but they did not show any surprise. They merely glanced at Jiang Lin a couple more times before paying no further attention.

Afterwards, Jiang Lin checked his current state and found it to be relatively stable.

Jiang Lin casually found a seat, grabbed a bottle of Sulfamethoxazole, and quietly observed everything before him.

Bustling, lively, fantastical...

This is a characteristic of this dreamscape, but Jiang Lin felt unusually quiet and peaceful.

Jiang Lin could hardly remember the last time he felt this relaxed.

And so, Jiang Lin sat there for a long time, doing nothing and thinking nothing, just quietly emptying his mind and spacing out.

It wasn't until a person reminiscing passed by Jiang Lin that he came back to his senses.

Ordinary people cannot discover those who remember, but Jiang Lin is no ordinary person either.

However, Jiang Lin ignored him. After all, he was just a memory user. He didn't even want to care about the memory user on the train, let alone this one.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Lin got up and left, walking towards a large eyeball in the distance.

At that moment, things changed again in the live stream.

[Huang Quan, with her flowing purple hair and graceful figure, gripped a sword in her left hand, the scabbard pointing directly at Grand Duke Minghuo, who sat slumped on the ground, leaning against his throne.]

The once luxurious mansion was now engulfed in flames. The flames above the Duke of the Underworld's head were no longer raging, and his tone had lost its previous majesty.

"It seems the outcome was already decided."

"They're still alive, and so are you. You still have a choice: keep the music box, and then go."

Huang Quan's tone was indifferent, as if the scene before her did not evoke any emotion in her whatsoever.

"A choice? The bloody path of 'destruction' allows no room for hesitation."

[The voice of the Grand Duke of the Underworld carried a hint of self-mockery and helplessness.]

"Fire Demon of Tophat, even if you offer your life to that star god, you will not gain His favor."

Grand Duke of the Underworld shook his head. "Ranger, you travel within the narrow confines of hunting; naturally, you cannot understand. We come from fire, are born of fire, spread, burn, destroy, until the fuel is exhausted, leaving only ashes."

"Burning is the beginning and end of the fire demon's life. We are born with a longing for each other only to embody a universal truth: all things are born for destruction."

"Your companions don't seem to think so; they fought for your life," Huang Quan stated calmly, recounting the events that had just transpired.

"They are my children, just like I once was, like flames yet to burn brightly."

They are still young, I will not blame them. But my flame is already hoarse, and time is running out.

Do you see the star of the grand gathering in the distance? I will take Purgatory there—so before that, I must cross you.

"Why?" Huang Quan looked at the fire demon on the ground, its flames almost extinguished, and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"For you have gone further than I have in the path they opened, O sir—"

"Gopher: I guessed right, an envoy who stole the tickets from other guests."

"Potio: What the hell? What's with that roasted sheep's head's eyes? She doesn't look like a knight-errant at all!"

"Flying Skies: A Narrow Hunt?"

"March 7th: But he's really stubborn. Even Miss Huangquan is planning to let him go."

"Black Swan: Memories Worth Cherishing"

"You can't hide your identity. Draw that knife. We will stay here, we are destined to fight to the death, because I have chosen this path."

[Then, Grand Duke Minghuo continued in a serious and solemn tone:]

"Destruction is a magnificent moment; if one seeks survival through baseness, life is far too long."

Chapter 57 The situation is tense

Sambo: He laughs at jokes, not people; a true man in prison.

"Star: +1, wait, something's wrong, Sambo, aren't you next to me?"

"Fireworks: Hehe, even Prisoner has experienced the strength of the Underworld."

"Danheng: Although Grand Duke Minghuo is an absolute villain, he is also a truly devout follower of destiny."

"Jing Yuan: Indeed, a great reputation is never undeserved. The fact that Grand Duke Minghuo has such a reputation throughout the world is no accident."

Yanqing: It's a pity he's already dead, otherwise Yanqing really wanted to personally kill him with his sword.

Yunli: @Yanqing, why aren't you still depressed?

"Star: @Phantom, look at others, then look at yourself."

"A certain entertainer: @Nanook, what a wonderful farce, this is simply a joke. Your team-building skills need improvement. I'll show you what truly interesting 'trouble' looks like later~"

Su Chang: Huh? Is the person upstairs really that bold?

"Fireworks: Has the God of Fun used another alt account to infiltrate the crowd again?"

"Even if the answer might be your own destruction?" Huang Quan asked.

"The answer is not important; what matters is its existence, just as your existence is. Everything exists to be destroyed—and so it is."

Even in the void, beautiful dreams can be born; what seems impossible is merely something yet to come.

【“…”】

"Okay, I promise."

"You will witness the most brilliant and explosive fire in the world. May this burning illuminate your unfathomable dreams."

"A bottomless dream...indeed, but you've misunderstood something." Huang Quan's tone was calm.

"This knife remains sheathed, not out of pity or contempt. It is a secret I do not wish to reveal, but as a form of retaliation..."

Huang Quan's hand slowly rested on the scabbard.

"I will be honest with you. 'Hunting' is not the path I choose."

[The long sword was slowly drawn from its sheath—]

A profound silence fell over the Darkfire Mansion, with only a few ashes drifting down.

"May death end your long dream... and lead you back to the world of wakefulness."

"Gold Sand: This is the whole process of the death of the Lord of the Underworld. It is a truly terrifying power."

"Jade: @Sunday, regarding the cornerstone, since the family cannot provide a reasonable explanation, the company has no choice but to seek an explanation on its own."

Scott: Sirs, I'm willing to be the vanguard.

"Sunday:……"

"Robin: Brother, what happened? Are you hiding something from me?"

"Topa: @Sajin, @Ladio, you two leave Pinocchio first, I'll come pick you up."

"Firefly: @Star, please follow me closely, something big might be about to happen at Pinocchio."

Himeko: Everyone, please be careful.

After the video ended, the atmosphere at Pinocchio instantly turned tense, triggered by the conflict between the company and the family in the live stream.

Representatives from various factions sensed that something big might be about to happen in Pinocchio.

At this time, Jiang Lin, on Dr. Edward's "recommendation," emptied the dream shop.

Just as Jiang Lin finished paying the bill, a group message popped up on his phone.

Star Train Family

Himeko: @Everyone, the situation at Pinocchio may have changed. Let's meet at the Clockwork Boy statue first.
