[What else can I say? A girl willing to dig through trash cans for me…]
[There's even a fork in her hair, I'm crying.]
[Damn it, don't people in Belobog know how to sort their trash?]
[I used to love Twilight, now I absolutely adore Twilight]
[Although I feel sorry for the white-haired sister, I have to switch sides!]
[Harem? What harem? You know, Twilight and I have always been pure love~]
[A free 5-star Preservation character, even at full Eidolons, I don't know when Mihoyo became so generous.]
[This one, no longer needed (referring to March 7th)]
[Just you wait, the more popular she is, the happier Mihoyo will be when they kill her off! Better to follow me and believe in the white-haired sister. As everyone knows, villains live long, so bad women aren't afraid of being killed!]
Browsing through the player forum trends in her mind, Twilight smirked inwardly. As expected, on the path of farming favorability, she only needed to make a slight move to already know the limits of this field~
Although it had been less than two months since this alt account was created, the protagonist team consisting of Caelus, March 7th, and Dan Heng had already been easily handled by her. Not only that, but the favorability from the players had also risen significantly.
By Twilight's estimation, if she were to drop dead right now, she could probably get three or four million favorability… This was a considerable amount of energy.
You should know that Unit 1 Lihua, after working diligently for so many years, had only earned 5 million from the audience. As expected, a supporting character in a side story and a female protagonist accompanying the player were completely incomparable in terms of farming favorability and waiting for the energy explosion.
The only regret was that Caelus had run into a white-haired older sister who popped out of nowhere in the space station… Caelus's absentmindedness at that time must have been because of this.
Damn it! The fact that she wanted to kill her was irrelevant, but this bastard actually dared to compete with her for Caelus's favorability, and even targeted the players… Although she hadn't seen this person's face, her existence truly made Twilight feel an unprecedented sense of crisis—the crisis of competition!
The key point was that Twilight didn't remember this character in the original plot. It seemed to be another butterfly effect caused by her appearance. Fortunately, this person had only appeared twice so far, and for short periods.
Although she had already gained quite a bit of favorability, it was still limited and far from Twilight's position as the female lead. Otherwise, Twilight might have considered taking her offline physically… After all, this person wanted to kill her, so it would be normal for her to fight back, right?
Even if she didn't fight back, throwing her into a black hole would also work. Anyway, she just needed to prevent her from ruining her plan within a year.
After all, the current Twilight was still far from achieving her plan. Let alone the target energy of 100 million, she hadn't even earned back the nearly 20 million energy used to create the account… The energy farmed in these two months added up to less than 200,000, and that was with the bonus from the lifespan reveal event…
She still needed to continue thinking of ways to farm favorability—but before that, she should take a bath.
After all, to make herself look more disheveled, she had really put in effort when digging through the trash cans…

"Anyway, when we meet that Supreme Guardian later, don't be so agitated. Let me talk to her first."
On the way to Qlipoth Fort, Welt painstakingly persuaded March 7th, Caelus, and Twilight: "We are not robbers, we can solve problems with words! What kind of behavior is fighting all day? If this gets out, how can our Express crew face others in the future?"
"I know!"
Twilight actively raised her hand: "If anyone disagrees with my actions, just take them out too! If the whole galaxy disagrees, just take down the entire world alone!"
"…" After a long silence, Welt silently adjusted his glasses. "Twilight, don't read those comics and novels Caelus bought anymore next time."
"Oh."
Seeing Twilight lower her hand aggrievedly, Welt sighed. Unlike Caelus, whose mind was relatively mature, Twilight was completely a child, and she also possessed terrifying power. If she wasn't guided correctly, a beautiful flower might grow crooked later:
"We can't be bullied, but we can't bully others either… Little Twilight, you have to learn to judge in the future. When to use power to deter, and when to talk gently with the other party…"
Seeing Twilight nod obediently, Welt felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, Twilight was an appreciative and obedient child, teaching her wasn't difficult… This reminded Welt of his other student.
That gray-haired, twin-tailed loli who should still be on Earth… Completely opposite to Twilight, although petite, she knew a lot. The key point was that she was not only unappreciative but also sharp-tongued, plus her terrifying learning ability and knowledge reserve… Every time he taught her something, it was torture for Welt.
"Lady Bronya, good afternoon!"
Oh dear, just thinking about her brings back those unbearable years on Earth, it's like hearing someone calling her name—wait, it seemed like someone really was calling!
Welt suddenly opened his eyes and found that the figure standing in front of Qlipoth Fort greeting them looked exactly like the Bronya in his memory, the only difference being that she seemed to have grown up a bit.
Wait, wait… Not only was the name of that Guardian Cocolia familiar, but now Bronya had also appeared?!
Welt's heart suddenly tightened. The galaxy was vast, sometimes worlds separated by countless light-years would exhibit similar characteristics and have similar existences—but he had only heard about it, never seen such a situation!
There was Cocolia, there was Bronya… Could this Jarilo actually be a parallel version of Earth?!
Then those lunatics like Kevin, Otto, and Eleanor, could they also be in this world…?!
At this moment, Welt felt those memories that should have been dead begin to attack him frantically. Being toyed with and beaten by the Schicksal trio, being defeated by Kevin like trash, being ravaged by the Honkai…
Calm down, Welt, maybe it's just the same name! These two people are just a coincidence, it's impossible to really replicate Earth's situation!
Hoping for this, Welt gritted his teeth, his expression solemn, and walked towards Bronya, who looked like she was facing a formidable enemy.
"Miss Bronya, may I ask what your relationship with Cocolia is?"
Welt tried to keep his tone calm, but it only put more pressure on Bronya.
Although the other party's tone was polite, that terrifying aura seemed to declare that he could kill her at any time… As expected, these people are not good! Mother's deduction was correct, they are messengers sent to destroy Jarilo's hope…
Trying desperately not to show any fear, Bronya stood straight with a blank expression: "She is my mother."
"…Adopted?"
They even know this information? Bronya's eyes flickered, and she nodded: "Yes."
"…You didn't used to live in an orphanage and have a childhood friend named Seele, did you?"
Orphanage? Seele?
It seemed somewhat familiar, yet also not…
Bronya couldn't answer immediately, but Welt had already gotten the answer he wanted.
At this point, the truth was obvious—Damn it, Honkai was still chasing him!!!
Could the coldness of this planet really not be because of the Stellaron, but because of the damn Herrscher of Ice?!
Could it be that in some corner, a white-haired Kevin would suddenly jump out, shouting 'Why do birds fly', and then want to destroy the world?!
Welt was really panicking. If someone like him could become much stronger after embarking on the Path, what would happen to the universe if a Kevin walked the Path of Destruction or The Hunt? He didn't dare to imagine.
As a victim who had gathered the power of the entire world yet was still beaten by Kevin, and was even thrown into another world, he practically had Kevin PTSD. Just thinking about that man made him panic.
If he really appeared, how could he stop him? Could he protect these children behind him? Or could March 7th, Dan Heng, Caelus… could they stop him?
Cold sweat began to form on Welt's temples. The nightmare of the past swept over him at this moment—then, he felt a warm hand gently patting his back.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
He turned around in surprise and found Twilight standing beside him, earnestly stroking his back, seemingly comforting him.
"Uncle Yang, don't be afraid. I'll protect Uncle Yang."
