Chapter 327: A Li, Tianhe's Past (Collapse of the Starry Sky Railway)
Let's first clarify one thing. The ley lines only appear on the continent of Teyvat. The group that the ley line network is aimed at should be the people of Teyvat, so the people invited to the Tianhe party should actually only be the people of Teyvat.
So, why can all friends in Honkai Impact 3rd and Honkai Impact 3rd receive party invitations?
Then we have to mention our Ali. The reason why she likes to sleep is actually because she has consumed a lot of energy in order to help Tianhe travel through time.
Therefore, whether before or after losing his memory, the system Tianhe had from the beginning to the end was actually Ali. However, the world Tianhe first traveled through was actually the Collapsed Star Railway.
In the timeline, Tianhe was actually the first member to join the Star Core Hunters. Later, there was a sixth member named Aha who wanted to (fool) cross him out and begged him to be the Masked Fool for a while.
Then, if nothing unexpected happened, Tianhe must have rejected this God of Fun and humiliated Him severely. He turned Him into a little Loli with white hair and red eyes, and then sent it to the tavern group through hacking technology. This incident once became a signboard in the tavern.
At that time, even several [Joy] emissaries, after learning about this, began to add fuel to the fire and decided to nominate Tianhe to become the [Joy] Star God, and asked Aha to give up his position quickly.
Although Tianhe did not admit that he was the Masked Fool, all the Fools in the tavern did not think so. They all recognized that Tianhe was the real God of Fun in the tavern. As for Aha? Who was Aha to be fooled by a Star Core Hunter?
So, since then, Ahab, who was expelled from the Fool's Tavern, followed Fuli. They followed Tianhe everywhere, and Ahab never cared that he had been played by Tianhe and became a joke. He only knew that following Tianhe would definitely be fun.
Ah Ha actually knew very well that Tianhe was not a person in the universe at all. In fact, the universe he was in was most likely above the Tree of Imaginary Numbers.
However, He would not tell anyone about this. Even if He told anyone, no one would believe Him. Who would believe Ah Ha? Because even the tavern now has a sign that reads "Aha and dogs are not allowed in."
This wave of operations vividly illustrates that Aha really has no face, Aha really has no face!
During the time when he was a star core hunter, Tianhe completed many tasks very well. However, when Elio asked why Tianhe wanted to be a star core hunter.
As a [slave of fate], Elio believed in the [End Star God], the Last King. Naturally, she knew very well that Tianhe was definitely not from this universe, because she could not see any of Tianhe's past in the universe. But she still wanted to understand why Tianhe wanted to join the Star Core Hunters.
Tianhe said to Elio very firmly: "I want to lead this imperfect world to a perfect ending and prevent it from collapsing." After hearing Tianhe's answer, Elio was silent for a moment.
If someone else heard Tianhe's words, they would just think that Tianhe was having a second-year syndrome. But Elio, who can see the future, can't see Tianhe's past, but she can see what the future will be like with Tianhe in the universe.
Therefore, this is why Elio believes that with Tianhe's ability, he can definitely turn what he said into reality. Therefore, Elio has never actively interfered with anything Tianhe did in the universe. After all, Tianhe's purpose is the same as that of the Star Core Hunter.
As for Tianhe's later withdrawal from the Star Core Hunter and joining the Interstellar Peace Company, this was actually part of the plan. However, the company was very confused when it learned about this. A notorious Star Core Hunter in the universe came to join our company?
However, after learning about this, the board of directors personally met with the former star core hunter. This fully demonstrated that there is no only fighting and killing in the universe, and the rivers and lakes are all about human relationships and worldly wisdom.
In addition to the high bounty, there is another item on Tianhe’s wanted poster that is different from other star core hunters.
That is, Tianhe's wanted order is the same as Elio's, no one is allowed to hurt him or make him lose his ability to think independently. In simple terms, he can only be captured alive, and he must surrender obediently.
Therefore, when Tianhe withdrew from Star Core Hunter, the company's board of directors learned the news at the first time.
Almost at the same time, the company removed all wanted orders for Tianhe in the universe. This is why, when Tianhe came to Interstellar Peace Company and expressed his desire to join, the board of directors personally met with him.
Originally, the board of directors wanted Tianhe to be the director of a department. With his ability and connections, there would be no problem for him to have a seat on the board of directors.
But Tianhe wanted to be one of the [Stone Heart Ten]. Of course, he would not do anything most of the time and would only get a salary. When the board of directors heard his idea, they were stunned. Although they did not know what the former star core hunter wanted to do, they still agreed to it.
However, the board of directors of Interstellar Peace Company did not expect that when Tianhe got this job that could almost be called a retirement job, he did not choose to lie down in the office and rot, but instead ran around the universe and won a lot of reputation for the company.
This included the war in which the Sea Patrol Ranger surrounded and killed [Extinction Lord] Zhu Luo. Although the Sea Patrol Ranger used the insect swarm to devour Zhu Luo's fleet, how could Zhu Luo, the Extinction Lord, be killed by the insect swarm?
But as Tianhe joined the battle, the balance of victory, as expected, fell directly to the side of the Patrol Ranger. After all, Tianhe, a multi-destined commander, had the highest output and participation rate in the game.
Tianhe not only killed Zhu Luo, but also lured the Sea Patrol Rangers to devour the swarm of insects in Zhu Luo's fleet and slaughtered them all. As for how he killed them, we have to mention the "One Arrow to Stop the Water" of a certain executive officer of our Teyvat!
First, the "Severance of Flow" of the son of Tianhe Society, plus Nashida's "All Hearings and All Countings", and that Aha, without thinking twice, directly made Tianhe his [Pleasure] messenger. So, with additional attacks, plus "Severance of Flow", plus "All Hearings and All Countings", a set of combos, the insect swarm was directly blown up.
Seeing this spectacular sight, everyone present was stunned. Ah Ha said that Tianhe was better at making fireworks than Krippo, the old lady in civil engineering. The last time such a big firework was made was during the locust plague in the universe, when Ah Ha was killing insects.
Aha never expected that the fireworks made by Tianhe would be more pleasing to the eye than the ones he had played with before.
In comparison, he felt that the fireworks he had set off before were not joyful at all. On the contrary, the fireworks made by his own messengers were more joyful than his. If the people in the tavern knew about this, they would probably laugh at him again.
Fu Li recorded this scene very seriously. He did not expect Tianhe to play so big. It unexpectedly matched his inner aesthetics. He estimated that if Nanook was called over, Tianhe would be the new Lord of Extinction.
With Tianhe's participation, the original siege against the Great Lord of Extinction turned into a righteous beating. Originally, the patrol rangers were prepared for more than half of them to be killed or wounded, but they did not expect that the street urchin Tianhe would actually pass by here.
In the end, thanks to Tianhe's participation, the casualties of the Sea Patrol Rangers were virtually zero. After unanimous agreement within the Sea Patrol Rangers, they handed a specially made bullet to Tianhe.
He was told that if he encountered a problem that he could not solve, he should shoot this bullet into the sky, and the Sea Patrol Ranger's [Hunting] would surely come. However, with Tianhe's strength, perhaps this bullet would never be used. Therefore, Tianhe simply regarded it as an honor.
Tianhe later met Tiernan, the sea patroller and unknown passenger of the Star Train. This also laid the groundwork for Tianhe to become the navigator of the Star Train.
Because of Tianhe's identity as the "Ten Stone Hearts", after this war, the Sea Patrol Rangers rarely had conflicts with the Interstellar Peace Company. In addition, Tianhe did a lot of other things, which I will not go into detail here.
The [Diamond] Director of the Strategic Investment Department did not expect that Tianhe, a street urchin who traveled around the world and did not do any work most of the time, could win huge reputation, connections and benefits for the Strategic Investment Department.
The other nine of the [Shixin Ten] clearly had more resources than Tianhe, but in the end, they were no match for Tianhe.
If the other ten stone-hearted people knew what Diamond was thinking, they would definitely complain: "Boss, don't you think about what Tianhe did before he became the ten stone-hearted people? Moreover, his strength far exceeds that of you, the guardian envoy. How can we compare with him?"
Therefore, before Tianhe withdrew, the [Ten Stone Hearts] began to roll inwards. Although they all knew that no matter how hard they tried, they could not surpass the first place, after all, the candidate had been decided. But at least, they could make themselves look useful and not look like a waste.
It was not until Tianhe, the street scoundrel, announced his departure from the company that Shajin joined the Strategic Investment Department [Shixin Ten] through the recommendation letter from Tianhe that the involution stopped.
However, when they knew that Shajin was invited by Tianhe himself, they naturally did not dare to underestimate her. After all, who would have thought that the street urchin was the murderer who caused all of them to roll inward, but none of them hated him.
This former star core hunter was very easygoing and would help them from time to time, so he actually had a very good relationship with the [Stone Heart Ten]. With the help of other seniors, Shajin soon demonstrated his strong abilities in the Strategic Investment Department and even in the entire Interstellar Peace Company.
Although, she had a quirk at first, she particularly liked to gamble with her life. However, when Tianhe was mentioned, she began to cherish her life. There was no other reason, just because Shajin wanted to repay this benefactor. Later, for this reason, her quirk disappeared.
When talking about Tianhe becoming the navigator of the Star Train, we have to mention Aha. It was he who brought Tianhe to the planet where Jizi was, and happened to meet Jizi in her teenage years. At that time, she had not yet met the Star Train.
With the help of Tianhe, they soon found the almost scrapped Star Sky Train. Tianhe once suspected that it was done by Ah Ha, the old man, because Ah Ha turned into a little loli and pretended to be indifferent, which made it hard not to suspect that it was her who did it.
However, with Tianhe's help, it took only two months to completely repair the Star Dome Train. During this period, Jizi also recognized Tianhe's true identity, a former Star Core Hunter, a former Stone Heart Ten, a suspected (crossed out) Joy Order Envoy, a Sea Patrol Ranger, and a good friend of the Immortal Boat Alliance.
Ji Zi never thought that she would meet such a strong man in her lifetime. After the train was repaired, Tianhe originally wanted Ji Zi to be the navigator, because he knew that Ji Zi's future code name would be "Explorer of the Stars". He would be the train's guard and escort the Starry Sky Train on its journey.
But Ji Zi refused, she chose to be the administrator of the think tank, and the more experienced Tianhe became the navigator of the Starry Sky Train. So, the Starry Sky Train started running again, [opening up] the unknown starry sky.
The various forces in the universe soon discovered that the long-lost Star Train was [opening up] the starry sky again. And the identity of the new navigator of the Star Train was Tianhe, who was once famous throughout the universe.
Although there were only Tianhe and Jizi on the Starry Sky Train, Jizi was still very happy. Not only could she [explore] the unknown starry sky, but she could also travel with a strong man like Tianhe. It was really great.
Ji Zi had never expected that the identity and resume of the person she met by chance would be so terrifying. Therefore, Ji Zi thought that she was not worthy of being a navigator, which made Tianhe feel very helpless.
Therefore, Tianhe had to serve as the navigator of the Starry Sky Train. However, many people came here to become pioneers. The train conductor Pam always accepted everyone except the Masked Fool.
Of course, Tianhe was an exception. Although he was the [Pleasure Envoy], he was dedicated to repairing the train. Moreover, Pam heard that Tianhe had severely punished the worst nameless guest and seemed very happy.
Later on the Starry Sky Train, Tianhe and Jizi came to the Collapse III world and invited the former Anti-Entropy leader and animation storyboard artist Walter Yang to board the train. However, Tianhe did not expect that Old Yang had also become feminine? Moreover, the other party seemed to know him.
By chance, when passing by a meteorite belt, he accidentally discovered Sanyueqi wrapped in six-phase ice, so he abducted her onto the train. Of course, Tianhe would not take advantage of someone's misfortune, such as peeking at Sanyueqi. Peeping at a fool is illegal! Sanyueqi is a fool to begin with.
Tianhe also went to the immortal boat [Luofu] and used sweet words to lure the newly born Yinyue Jun Danhan onto the train. However, Danhan could recognize at a glance that this person was the benefactor of the Immortal Boat Alliance, so she did not choose to get off the train, but became a train guard.
Originally, everyone on the train thought that Tianhe, the navigator, would always accompany them. But on the way to the Black Tower Space Station.
Tianhe received a task issued by the system, and then he resigned from the position of navigator and let Jizi become the new navigator of the Starry Sky Train. After that, he got off the train and disappeared, and was classified as missing by the company.
Tianhe received the task of going to the pre-civilization period of Honkai Impact 3. Although, A-li was very lenient with Tianhe, the opening time was decided by Tianhe, and before that, he could stay in the universe for a long time.
Ali didn't expect that Tianhe would decide to leave the universe so soon and go to the pre-collapse civilization. He didn't even choose to tell anyone. When Ali asked Tianhe, Tianhe just set a flag, we will meet again, but not now.
Then, Tianhe disappeared from the universe, as if he had never existed. However, all those who had a very good relationship with Tianhe felt a little sad, as if they had lost someone important.
Finally, after Tianhe disappeared for a long time, all the major forces began to look for Tianhe's traces. Patrol Ranger, Interstellar Peace Company, Xianzhou Alliance, Tavern, Genius Club, Knowledge Society, Star Dome Train, Star Core Hunter...
In the end, without exception, they all ended in failure, and Tianhe could only be classified as missing. It was not until Ali sent an invitation to Huanyu on behalf of Tianhe that everyone learned the latest news about Tianhe. To be continued...
