"What are these slime and instrument fragments?"
Stelle walked to the center of the circular platform, surveying the chaotic scene before her. She crouched down, reached out, and pinched a bit of the slime scattered across the floor, her expression puzzled.
Wasn't there supposed to be a culture vessel here, and a big problem inside it?
Why is there just this unidentified liquid and debris everywhere? Where's the vessel?
Wait...

Stelle stood on the elevator, gazing at the massive, devastated chamber before her. The scene was chaotic, littered with puddles of unidentified liquid and shattered fragments of unknown devices. The constant electrical hum filled her ears, plunging her into deep thought.
"What a huge room... I never knew the Space Station had such a vast, empty space..." she murmured, her uneasy premonition growing stronger with each passing moment.

As the story progressed, Little Bear, who was live-streaming, finally understood the nature of Ruan Mei's experiment on the Space Station.
An experiment to create an Emanator—and one as dangerous as an Emanator of Propagation... A single misstep could plunge the entire Space Station into a severely weakened version of the S...

As the story progressed, Little Bear controlled the protagonist, following Ruan Mei's footsteps to the conference hall indicated by Herta.
Listening to the characters' information-dense conversation, Little Bear was thoroughly engrossed.
His eyes lit up instantly upon hearing about Polka Kakamond and Dr. Primitive, but the light quickly faded when no particularly useful information emerged.
The very next moment, however, his eyes brightened again upon learning that Lumina kn...

"It seems that after Version 1.6's Space Station event, the next version will take us directly to the planet Lumina pointed to, and then Lumina will get her first banner."
Midway through his conversation with Lumina, Little Bear paused to ponder, ultimately arriving at a conclusion that was as insightful as saying nothing at all.
The live stream audience was immediately exasperated by their streamer's utterly useless conclusion, and they promptly voiced their opinions:

Population is undoubtedly a major constraint on national development. Take the Grand Duchy of Augustus, for example: the vast majority of its people are engaged in logging-related work, with only a small number maintaining farmland and constructing houses.
In other words, nearly everyone has their own tasks and jobs. The Grand Duchy of Augustus has hardly any idle population left. To develop new industries, it would be necessary to pull people from their existing jobs.

In the real world, it was a time shortly before the official launch of Honkai: Star Rail Version 1.6.
On the Bilibili platform, in a live stream channel called "Little Bear," the streamer, Little Bear, had been camping out around the clock. He managed to be the first to enter the game.
The first step upon entering the game was, of course, claiming the Monthly Pass rewards. Then, he checked his inbox for the 600 Stellar Jade compensation from the server maintenance. After ...

"Since everyone's time is precious, I'll get straight to the point." Herta scanned the room, hands on her hips, ready to dive into the agenda.
"I believe it's time to find another partner."
"Are you going to kick Stephen out?" Ruan Mei asked calmly, her arms crossed, showing no change in her expression upon hearing Herta's words.
"No, of course not. Stephen doesn't want to get involved in this matter and abstained from the vote," Herta replied smoothly, shaking her head.

Upon activating her Ultimate, Lumina's radiant Character Portrait appeared on the screen. The words "Flawless Melody, Eternal Garden" materialized in the lower right corner, presumably the name of her Ultimate.
With the Ultimate activated, the game's focus shifted to Lumina. Her eyes were closed as she sat on a green swing that had materialized out of thin air, a faint smile gracing her lips. Her Staff had vanished, and several butterflies of vary...

At that moment, March 7th, Dan Heng, Seele, and Bronya witnessed a shocking scene. They saw the Underworld entrance completely occupied by a large contingent of Silvermane Guards. Underworld residents and Wildfire members stood armed, their faces tense with wariness and anger as they glared at the Silvermane Guards.
Sampo was pinned to the ground by Gepard, who had his knee pressed against Sampo's back and his hands yanking Sampo's arms backward.

Theresa's transformation was far from complete. Under the searing blood-colored flames, the Oath of Judah, which she wore around her neck, reverted to its original form before, to everyone's astonishment, transforming into a Spiritual Blade: the Salvation of Sakura.

Half a month flew by in a blur. Tribios finished her teaching for the day and left the 'school'. Of course, calling it a school was a stretch; it was simply a designated patch of land where students sat on the ground. The teacher stood among them with a parchment scroll, lecturing directly to the students.
Construction plans for a proper school were underway, but it wouldn't be ready anytime soon, so they'd have to endure this arrangement for a while longer.

Qin Yu glanced at the calendar.
Today was the last day of her vacation. Tomorrow, she would officially return to work.
The thought sent a wave of anxiety crashing over her.
"I don't want to work! I don't want to work! Aaaah, I don't want to work!" Qin Yu rolled around on her bed, clutching her blanket and muttering to herself.
She felt like a pig being dragged off to slaughter, its limbs bound.

So, these are all Sumeru items?

The next morning.
Qin Yu lazily climbed out of bed, picked up the thin blanket that had half-fallen to the floor, tossed it back onto the bed, and went to wash up, yawning.
Looking at her slightly disheveled reflection in the mirror, her sluggish mind slowly began to recall today's plans.
Today, I'm going on a date... going out with Keqing.
Last night, Qin Yu had considered planning the route, but then she thought: Keqing's reaction time could probably cir...

2400-meter track, grass field, reverse course.
The layout was nearly identical to the Japan Cup, but with a flatter gradient and slightly different grass quality. From the start, it was a one-on-one duel. Narita Brian immediately showcased her dominant running style, the Monster's form already etched into the world's collective memory.
Yet something felt off. Her running posture, while familiar, carried an inexplicable stiffness, a subtle disharmony that confirmed Kousei's suspici...
