Chapter 119: The High-Cloud Quintet — Yingxing III
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Qingque: Hehehe, I never expected the General to have these kinds of thoughts. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Jing Yuan: I don't! I really don't! ]
…
On the screen, two figures slowly appeared. It was indeed Jing Yuan and Yingxing.
The two of them were currently driving a starskiff, speeding down the street without stopping.
Even though the rear of their starskiff was currently spewing fire, they were still racing like madmen.
At this moment, Yingxing noticed the burning starskiff. His pupils shrank, and he turned his head to shout at Jing Yuan, "Brother, your ride is on fire! Drive slower, brother!"
"No worries, I am the Mount Akina God of Racing. You have to believe in my tech-nique!" Jing Yuan raised a hand, pointed at himself, and said with a proud face.
"God of Racing my foot! I believe in your mother's hammer! Do you see the ditch ahead?!" Hearing Jing Yuan's words, Yingxing's anger instantly flared up. He slapped the back of Jing Yuan's head and said angrily.
But Jing Yuan ignored him completely, driving faster and faster instead.
"Ditch, ditch, ditch!" Seeing that Jing Yuan had absolutely no intention of slowing down, Yingxing instantly became even more panicked. He shook Jing Yuan's shoulders repeatedly, pointed at the deep ditch not far away, and lost his voice screaming.
"Go, go, go!"* Jing Yuan thought Yingxing was telling him to speed up. He got even more excited, raising one hand to wave it around while using his other hand to twist the throttle all the way down.
But the next second, with a loud bang, the entire starskiff flipped over and exploded violently.
On the screen, Jing Yuan and Yingxing slowly crawled out of the burning starskiff.
"Jing Yuan, you motherfker! I already told you there was a ditch ahead, and you still fking accelerated! Do you have water in your brain?" Yingxing pointed at Jing Yuan with a face full of rage, cursing him for being an idiot.
"How was I supposed to know what you were saying? I thought you were telling me to speed up." Jing Yuan didn't realize his mistake at all. He pouted and retorted directly.
"You motherfking egg!" Yingxing tackled Jing Yuan to the ground and started punching him repeatedly.
Soon, the screen gradually faded to black, and the classic screams of Tom Cat echoed from within.
"This is the end of the video!"
…
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Fu Xuan: Hahahahaha! Jing Yuan, you have your day too! ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Yanqing: General, what's wrong with you? Did you get Alzheimer's at such a young age? Is your hearing bad too? ]
[ Genshin Impact - Hu Tao: Ah, young age? You're telling me a person over a thousand years old is at a 'young age'? ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Yanqing: What of it? Compared to the Aeons and those surviving Thirteen Flame-Chasers who were previously featured in the stream, the General is indeed considered young. ]
[ Genshin Impact - Xiangling: Ah, this… when you put it that way, it actually makes a lot of sense. I don't even know how to argue with you. ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Elysia: Oh, we still haven't seen Kevin from fifty thousand years later speak up. What is he doing? Why is he hiding from us old friends? ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Theresa: And we haven't heard of World Serpent taking any action either. What on earth are those guys doing? ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Kevin: I always feel like my future self from fifty thousand years later is plotting something big. ]
At this moment, inside World Serpent, Kevin saw his self from fifty thousand years ago saying this and let out a small smile.
"Alright, alright. Next, we will proceed to the prize quiz segment!"
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Qingque: Heeheehee, it's my favorite segment again. ]
[ Genshin Impact - Zhongli: Ah, the reward for a correct answer. I would like to try answering again as well. ]
"Question: What does the current Blade want to do the most?"
"To increase the difficulty this time, you will have to answer freely. I will not provide options. After all, multiple-choice questions all the time would be too boring."
[ Genshin Impact - Kaeya: Hehe, the reward for a correct answer—our Knights of Favonius want that too. ]
[ Genshin Impact - Diluc: Hmph. Relying on those guys from your Knights of Favonius to answer questions? You might as well just give the opportunity to others. ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Kallen (Revived): Otto, come over quickly! Stop reviewing those useless documents and hurry over to help me think about the question. ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Otto: I understand, I'm coming right now! ]
At this moment, Otto glanced at the documents on his desk, sighed helplessly, stood up, and walked out.
He had no choice but to answer Kallen's call. After all, she was the person he loved.
"Stop chatting and hurry up and answer. Once we're done, we can move on to the next feature of the High-Cloud Quintet!"
Seeing the stream's prompt, everyone in the chat stopped bickering. They began to think seriously about the question, recalling the previous feature on Yingxing to find some clues.
…
Inside the Overseer's Office of Schicksal.
"Otto, what do you think the answer will be?" Kallen rested her chin in her hand, falling into deep thought.
Otto was also recalling the video just now, trying to find a sliver of a clue. As his thoughts deepened, a hypothesis suddenly occurred to him. He raised his head and said to Kallen with a serious face, "I have a somewhat immature idea."
"Oh? What idea?" Hearing Otto's words, Kallen couldn't help but blink, looking at him with curiosity.
"My idea is…" Otto walked over to Kallen's side and whispered into her ear.
"Your hypothesis is indeed possible. Let's test our hand speed in a bit then." Hearing Otto's words, Kallen frowned, but agreed that his theory was plausible, so she nodded.
…
There were many clever people in the stream. Through the previous video, they had also gradually formed some ideas, though they weren't entirely sure.
However, the rewards offered by the stream were simply too tempting, making them eager to answer.
Just as everyone in the stream was caught in a dilemma, the stream suddenly spoke up, as the countdown had reached its end.
"Alright, since no one has answered, the stream will now randomly select a participant."
[ Genshin Impact - Ningguang: Selected by the stream? Perhaps that is also a good choice. ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Einstein: Yes, this is a decent option, since we aren't sure of the answer either. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Herta: Well then, let's see who the unlucky or lucky soul will be. ]
Everyone in the stream held their breath, waiting for the selection.
"Let us congratulate…"
…
Note:[ Gōu - ditch ] sounds very similar to "Go" in English, which leads to Jing Yuan's misunderstanding.)
