"Xianzhou will definitely not let you down."
Everyone who heard this looked expectant.
With the explosion of the two PVs today, the upcoming PV's, and the Xianzhou drama, they dare not imagine how exciting it will be later.
---------------------------------
Just as Mihoyo was discussing the upcoming Xianzhou arc, the previews of two character PVs also made fans crazy over the internet.
"Death Approaches"
"Heaven and Earth as a chessboard!"
The number of views of these two PVs quickly rose to the top of the charts around the world as time passed. So, a strange scene appeared. On the playback charts of many regions, two PVs of several minutes each were suppressing a bunch of full episodes of other series. It was not Saturday yet. No one dared to think, after the release of the next Honkai: Star Rail episode, would other dramas still have a chance to survive?
...
: It's crazy. The short trailer, which is less than 10 minutes in total, blew up the sixth episode of Moon Warrior, which has been brewing for a long time.
: The science fiction category has been completely slaughtered by Honkai: Star Rail, and blood flowed like a river.
: The general category has also been killed.
: Please ask, are there any good dramas like Honkai: Star Rail that have Sci-Fi elements?
: The bad news is no, the good news is tomorrow, Friday, and the day after tomorrow is Saturday.
...
Fans from all over the world left colorful messages.
MiHoYo as a company was fast moving to the top in the entertainment industry getting interested glances from everywhere.
Honkai: Star Rail has once again dominated the hot searches.
Tonight, for fans, it is destined to be another sleepless night.
...
The next day.
Inside Mihoyo.
After finishing the shoot for the day and having lunch, the beautiful girls gathered in the screening room.
"Hey, Furina, what are you holding in your hand? So thick." March 7th looked at Furina curiously.
In Furina's hands, there was a stack of thick books.
"This is the complete script about all previous character PV's and episodes that I asked my boss for."
Furina weighed the script in her hand and said in surprise, "I just didn't expect it to be so thick."
"Wow..." After learning that it was a script, March 7th smacked her lips and said, "Forget it, I won't read it, or I'll get dizzy later."
"It doesn't matter, I've roughly finished reading it." Furina smiled, held the books in her arms, and sat next to March 7th.
"But there is a lot of content, and the Myriad Celestia Trailer will be broadcasted soon."
"So I can only give you a rough explanation." Furina sorted out her words and said while recalling "This script does not tell the full story of the High-Cloud Quintet."
"Of course, the story of the five heroes still occupies a large part, but at the same time, the boss used powerful means to achieve a big effect from a small detail."
"That is, with High-Cloud Quintet as the fulcrum, it expresses a deeper and more profound historical development related to the Xianzhou."
March 7th nodded as if she understood, and then smiled and said: "Then Furina, you have learned so much, you must be able to write such a script!"
"Ah, I, of course I can! After all I am very talented!"
Furina subconsciously looked up and said with all her might.
But in her heart, she felt extremely guilty and thought: "I can't think of an idea like the boss's!"
However, March 7th didn't notice anything, but said happily: "Then Furina, you will be great a great director in the future!"
"Yes, right?" Furina smiled guiltily.
At this moment, Xia Wen and Kafka walked in together.
Seeing everyone sitting in their seats and waiting, the corners of Kafka's mouth curled up.
It seems that everyone is looking forward to the plot of Xianzhou.
"Okay, I'm going over there. Remember our agreement."
Kafka winked at Xia Wen then she turned and left to find Himeko, Black Swan.
Xia Wen chuckled. The faint fragrance was still there.
As for the agreement between them, it was just Kafka's inner hope.
She hoped that Mihoyo could be like a real family, not abandoning or giving up, and walk to the other side of the dream with everyone.
"I would do it even without you telling me." Xia Wen thought to himself.
Then, he came to his seat.
Today's Myriad Celestia Trailer is probably the last Myriad Celestia Trailer in the entire Xianzhou arc.
The episode will be broadcast on Saturday, and then the PVs of Jingliu and Dan Heng will be released later.
It just happens to be connected with Myriad Celestia Trailer and the main drama.
Thinking of the speculations and comments about Xianzhou on the Internet, Xia Wen couldn't help but reveal a mysterious smile.
If the history of Xianzhou is grand, vast, and heavy, he is the confidence that it will eventually rise even if there are many difficulties.
Then this time, the High-Cloud Quintet is based on tragic and heroic, supplemented by cruelty and blood.
It should be completely different from what the audience thinks.
On the screen, The High-Cloud Quintet has been released on the official website on time.
The number of online viewers instantly exceeded one million.
...
: The last episode, yesterday's PV, today there is an even more awesome one!
: The last time I watched the history of Xianzhou many times, I was so excited!
: The High-Cloud Quintet? It's about the story of five heroes, right? I looked at the cover and there are several people who are not on the cover.
: Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Come out, Xianzhou with abundant martial virtues!
...
The barrage of comments passed.
The screen has gone dark. Mihoyo's logo appears.
There is no background music.
Only the sound of the breeze, the bright and hot sun, and the blue sky.
On a huge green lawn, two cute little girls are sitting together playing and fighting with each other.
"Sister, sister." The white-haired little girl was happily looking at her sister behind her.
At this time, her dear sister was covering her head with a woven wreath.
The two giggled.
Xueyi, Hanya. These are the names of the sisters.
The breeze blew, the large golden wheat fields around were surging with wheat waves.
The pleasant scenery almost made the audience mistakenly think that this was a rural film.
And shouldn't The Five Heroes on the Cloud tell the story of five heroes?
The audience watched it with curiosity and expectation.
As time went by, the sisters became tall and graceful young ladies. Both of them had delicate faces and outstanding figures.
Following the perspectives of the two, the audience watched them grow up and watched them suffer difficulties.
Gradually, they also got involved and smiled involuntarily.
It is foreseeable that the two girls will eventually live a happy life.
Until the audience learned from the younger sister where they were.
Xianzhou Cangcheng
...
: Ah? Cangcheng!? Damn it, Mihuoyou, please don't be such a jerk!
: Damn, don't mess with me, I'm here to watch a good show!
: Cangcheng seems to have been swallowed by something?
: My heart skipped a beat, please, don't!
...
The audience, after learning the name of Cangcheng, immediately felt that something was wrong.
However, the peaceful and happy story in front was like the fruit bestowed by the pharmacist.
It seemed sweet, but it concealed a tragic price.
The audience, who had been completely immersed in it, could only continue to watch with the camera.
Xueyi and Hanya became excellent warriors.
They set foot on the spaceship together and went on an expedition to the outside world.
The fierce battle made the audience extremely worried.
Because they had already known about the demise of Cangcheng in advance, the audience was always worried that any war in the picture might be the one that destroyed Cangcheng. However, after one battle after another, the two sisters were still unharmed.
"Sister, sister."
Just like the scene at the beginning,
Hanya and Xueyi, who had been fighting for many years, looked at each other.
But this time, Xueyi no longer put a crown on Hanya but showed a relieved smile.
Sandstorms, frost, mud marks... Time has left behind much dirt upon this face. But these hands will always gently and meticulously wipe away everything.
Just like herself, her sister has grown and matured. She shouldn't always wipe her sister's face clean in front of everyone like an anxious mother. But how could she ever just let go of things? She vowed to protect this face forever — vowing to do many, many things.
Just as Xueyi was thinking so, the surrounding environment suddenly turned blood red.
The younger sister standing in front of her also disappeared.
In the sky, a huge planet like a living creature could be seen. The trees and rocks on it have all turned into tentacles, falling from the sky, wrapping the entire Xianzhou Cangcheng in it.
Xueyi gasped and blinked.
Everything in front of her seemed to have become an illusion again.
"Sister, sister!" An anxious and frightened voice sounded.
It was the voice of her younger sister Hanya.
Xueyi immediately raised her head.
However, wherever she looked, there was a ruin and a sea of fire.
On the ground lay thousands of familiar but lifeless faces, including that of her sister.
But she couldn't find her own face.
"I can save her. I can save all of you. All it takes is a wave of the branch and I can teach flesh to regrow from the mere bones or let petals rise up out of the dust to the flower once more. You know very well I can."
Underneath her, a strange tree with a thousand faces spoke to her, and to everyone. THEY waved THEIR branches, penetrating deep into the earth.
"I am Shuhu. I am eternal. From me, you shall gain true immortality."
Sobbing, she closed her eyes, incapable of providing any resistance. At this moment, she was just an insignificant fruit upon this giant tree, powerless against mighty roots.
A colossal, blazing sword plunged down from the heavens, scorching away the sweet yet putrid atmosphere. A towering figure in formidable armor crashed onto the battlefield like a meteor, bellowing at the towering tree. The strange tree blossomed once more like a perennial flower, its golden branches growing ferociously to tightly entangle the enemy.
"Each time you overcome death, I am beyond overjoyed. Like them, your flesh and blood are insignificant, but your pain is something that pleases me."
Is it really like this? Xueyi, who has become a part of Them, looked at the bodies of countless people piled up on the Xianzhou with non-existent eyes.
After being swallowed up along with Cangcheng, some things naturally appeared in Xueyi's mind.
The abundance allows Shuhu to draw vitality from the people in Xianzhou.
"Sister... sister!"
The cries grew more urgent. She could feel herself being once again filtered, deleted, merged, and stuffed into a narrow and limited self.
Until this moment, from Xueyi's voice, the audience learned what happened.
The tragic scene took only a few minutes to completely overturn all the beauty.
Without a grand perspective, sacrifice and despair are no longer just a number, but are bloody.
The voice of sister seems to still echo in the minds of the audience.
The body of the Hanya is like a sharp blade, piercing everyone's heart.
...
: ...Why?
: I can't stand it anymore, I'm really feeling uncomfortable right now, and feel like crying.
: Ahhh, my heart hurts so much, Xueyi and Hanya, they are obviously two girls full of light! Why!!
...
Below the screen, the number of simultaneous viewers has exceeded 10 million.
At this moment, at least half of them exclaimed to embark on the path of the Hunt.
The beautiful girls in the theater felt that their hearts were blocked, as heavy as if they were filled with lead.
Kafka, Black Swan, Himeko, these big sisters, could not hide the pain in their eyes.
And March 7th, Xing, Furina, Ayaka and others bit their lips tightly.
There were already tears in their eyes.
The previous dramas or Myriad Celestia Trailers were mostly touching, passionate, or the perspective was too grand.
But this time, it showed the cruelty and description of a person in the Honkai: Star Rail Universe.
But the appetizer is not over yet.
On the Cangcheng, which had originally settled, the perspective suddenly shifted.
It was still the huge tree.
It was still Shuhu waving countless twisted limbs.
Above the sky, the Devouring World Rahu was still attached to it.
But this time, it was the perspective of the Hanya.
Hanya stood among a pile of corpses, holding a long sword, her eyes full of despair and determination. The tip of her sword was aimed at Shuhu.
But the next moment, Hanya, who had already held a desperate mentality, felt her hands tremble.
A branch fell from the tree, the branch squirmed and turned into the face of her sister Xueyi.
Hanya widened her eyes. Against the backdrop of this sea of fire, her hand gradually couldn't hold onto the sword.
Hallucination! This is an illusion!
Hanya cheered herself up. She tightened her grip on her sword again, but the next moment, a small flower on the tip of the sword actually grew out of the metal sword.
And it quickly turned into a brilliant flower.
The sword body gradually turned into powder.
It seemed that there was laughter coming from the tree, laughing at Hanya's powerlessness and weakness.
In this mountain of corpses. In a place engulfed by flames, Hanya held the hilt of the sword and slowly collapsed to the ground.
But even so, she still held the hilt tightly in her hand.
The screen gradually turned black.
"In the year 6300 of the Star Calendar, the Xianzhou Cangcheng was devoured by the activated planet Rahu."
"Rahu, the Devourer of Worlds, was brought to life by Shuhu, the emanator of abundance."
The appetizer is over.
The audience followed the perspective of the Xueyi sisters and thoroughly experienced the process of the destruction of Cangcheng.
And the terrifying pressure of Emanator of Abundance, Shuhu.
And the encounters of the sisters with Shuhu from different perspectives.
All of this made the audience fell stuffed.
As for the fate and ending of the sisters, there is no follow-up.
But for the two endings that have been revealed so far, none of them can see hope.
Anger, sadness, despair. This emotion was thoroughly conveyed to the audience.
----------------------
: Woo woo woo, seeing Hanya and Xueyi, two loving and supporting sisters, end up like this, my heart is broken!
: MD, they won't die without a complete corpse! Damn, this is too cruel! This is not Honkai: Star Rail! MiHoYo, stop it!
: Really, I'm so stupid, I should have joined the Xianzhou directly at the beginning and fought with this Abundance!
: Altruism? Healing? Selflessness? Is this your abundance? 666, no I have to join the Hunt.
: Family, my brother said he was Abundance's dog, and I picked up the keyboard and smashed it on his face. Do you think I did the right thing?
: The destruction of Cangcheng is really too desperate.
: Where are the High-Cloud Quintet, and General Jingyuan?
: Wait, it's 6300 years in the star calendar, damn it, the Xianzhou General History said that it was about 700 years before the timeline of the drama, and suddenly it came again. The story of the High-Cloud Quintet, couldn't it be that time?
: My God! I'm almost going crazy because of the knife. Don't do it! Please, MiHoYo!
...
The audience vented their emotions crazily on the barrage.
In the screening room
"Wow, I didn't feel anything after reading the script, but after seeing the specific scenes, I, I really can't bear to watch it anymore"
"Boss, you must have done it on purpose, just want to stab us! No knife, no knife!"
Seeing the exaggerated reactions of the beautiful girls, Xia Wen spread his hands helplessly.
This is just the appetizer.
The story of Hanya and Xueyi is just right.
Because the story of the High-Cloud Quintets, from the beginning to the end, the Emanator Abundance, Shuhu has a major role in it.
He is the cause of the High-Cloud Quintets being broken apart.
Only in this way can the battle of Shuhu, which caused the High-Cloud Quintets to part ways, be fully explained!
Thinking of this, Xia Wen looked at the screen.
On it, the timeline had shifted to the Xianzhou Luofu a thousand years later.
