Little Gui's livestream.
"Outside the car window, this night, dazzling and colorful~"
Guinaifen hummed a few lines from time to time.
Clearly, she had been brainwashed by "Sleepless Night"!
While singing, she opened the music app, ready to add the song to her playlist.
She hadn't expected it, but the song was already being promoted on the homepage!
Guinaifen clicked on it and was instantly stunned.
"Huh?"
"Yu Ling actually registered as a singer!?"
She opened the major music charts across the galaxy.
"Sleepless Night" had only been released for a few hours, yet it had already topped the charts!
"I knew this song would be a hit, but I didn't expect it to blow up like this!"
"Yu Ling, you're just too amazing!"
"Are you really an all-around talent?"
She clicked on the comments for "Sleepless Night."
[May this journey reach the stars!]
[First listen, nothing special. Nth listen... my brain is about to explode, it's so good!]
[Can't stop listening!]
[Honkai: Star Rail Season 2 is about to air.]
[Open the door, we've arrived at Penacony!]
[We Honkai: Star Rail players are eating so well!]
[Have you been infected by Sleepless Night? Do you know what happens to those who are infected? They become more handsome, and their gacha luck skyrockets.]
One comment after another left Little Gui slightly breathless!
"How does everyone know how to say such perfect things!"
"I can't keep up with all the likes!"
The live chat was flooded with messages.
...
"Holy crap! Is the intensity of online surfing this high now?"
"I heard Duke Inferno died this morning, and then Yu Ling released Sleepless Night in the afternoon, which topped the galactic charts by evening?"
"This is too dramatic! Even Aha would get a smack on the head for this!"
"Does anyone even remember Duke Inferno died?"
"Not a hint of regret for the Duke's passing, because what's coming next is—Sleepless Night!"
"Duke Inferno: 6"
"The Duke must be thinking: 'Do I really have to die for you all to start celebrating?'"
...
Guinaifen logged back into the forum.
Sure enough.
Many players were discussing Sleepless Night here too.
She scrolled through the posts one by one.
Aside from the content about Sleepless Night.
She also noticed some posts that caught her attention.
[Penacony Completely Bans Honkai: Star Rail? What the hell are these people hiding in their hearts!]
[Stop thinking the Harmony of the Family is so wonderful! The actual rulers don't even dare to let Star Rail appear.]
[Are there really still people going to Penacony for vacation?]
[Currently at The Reverie Hotel, trying to get the Family to refund my money!]
[They've offended players across the universe. I don't think this Charmony Festival is going to happen.]
"So Penacony really banned Star Rail content? I thought it was just a rumor."
Guinaifen looked puzzled.
"Could the Family really be hiding something shady?"
"Anyway, I'm definitely standing with Yu Ling!"
"Are there any family members in Penacony in the live chat? Tell us what's going on over there!"
In the chat.
A viewer immediately replied.
...
"Hahaha, it's so lively over here!"
"Apparently, earlier today, Black Swan showed up in the Hotel Lobby and set up a fortune-telling booth."
"Holy crap! Really? Is it too late for me to go to Penacony now?"
"After Yu Ling released the first part of the Stellar Parables, she disappeared, but the hotel's surveillance caught that moment."
"Secretly telling you all, Topaz and Aventurine are sitting in the private room next to me, discussing something with the Family."
"Go eavesdrop! See you in the insider section!"
"I just tried, but the company's security kicked me out."
"I'm in the Hotel Lobby, and the Family's management has collapsed! All the tourists are demanding refunds if they can't play Honkai: Star Rail in the Dreamscape."
...
Guinaifen was stunned.
"Huh?"
"Is it really that lively?"
"You're making me want to go see it for myself!"
"Let me book a ticket to Penacony right now!"
Guinaifen acted immediately.
She opened the app and started booking her ticket.
...
"Little Gui is coming too?"
"Finally getting to see the streamer in person?"
"Welcome, welcome...!"
"If you make it here..."
...
Suddenly.
These Penacony players seemed to have collectively gone offline.
All of them stopped talking!
Guinaifen waited for half a minute, but no one sent a message.
"What the... What's going on?"
"Family in Penacony, are you all okay?"
After another half a minute.
Among the flood of messages.
Finally, one of the Penacony players replied.
"Dr. Ratio is here!!"
Below.
Countless comments followed in rapid succession!
"Ah!"
"Ahhhhh!!!"
"Is it really him!?"
"I'm heading to Penacony right now, this instant!"
"Can you get me an autograph!?"
"Please, sneak a photo of Professor Ratio for me!"
However.
Several minutes had passed.
And there was no further response from the players in Penacony.
For a moment.
All the players in the livestream, including Little Gui, were burning with curiosity.
What on earth was happening at The Reverie Hotel in Penacony right now?
They wished they could fly through the internet.
To witness the scene firsthand!
...
Hotel Lobby.
The company's security personnel kept the enthusiastic players at bay.
Guiding Ratio to the private room where Aventurine and Topaz were waiting.
This reception room was luxurious and spacious.
At the moment.
Aside from Aventurine and Topaz, who represented the company, there were also family members present.
The representatives sent by the family were sitting there on pins and needles.
Clearly.
During the previous discussions, Aventurine and Topaz had already applied significant pressure!
And Ratio's arrival.
Completely ignited the fire.
Ratio didn't even sit down. He glanced at the family members present and said, "Forgive my bluntness, but the family's decision to ban 'Honkai: Star Rail' is utterly foolish."
"I had expected Mr. Sunday, the head of the Oak Family, to come and explain himself. I didn't think you'd send a few shields instead."
The family members' faces immediately turned grim!
As expected!
This Professor Ratio was just as straightforward and harsh in real life as he was in the game!
We're still high-ranking members of other families, you know! Have some respect!
Just as someone was about to retort.
Ratio made a gesture to stop them.
"There's nothing more to discuss with you. Either have Sunday come out to meet us, or we'll go find him ourselves."
Aventurine smiled slightly.
Giving Ratio a "well done" look.
Ratio, of course, ignored him.
Aventurine didn't mind.
Leaning back in his chair.
He continued to admire his own dance moves in "Sleepless Night."
Beside him.
Topaz also looked completely confident.
Originally.
The company's goal was to find a reason in Penacony to expedite the reclamation of this planet.
Now, the family's actions were like shooting themselves in the foot!
Topaz and Aventurine could barely suppress their smiles.
On the other side, the family members.
Were sitting there, already drenched in sweat.
Finally, someone couldn't take it anymore.
They said, "Sigh… please wait a moment. I'll contact Mr. Sunday right away."
...
Penacony.
Golden Hour.
The number of tourists seeking sweet dreams had dropped by more than half!
Keep in mind.
This was during the preparation period for the Charmony Festival.
It should have been the most bustling time, but due to the family's announcement to ban Honkai: Star Rail, a large number of dream chasers left the Dreamscape.
Some returned to their rooms, while others headed to the Hotel Lobby to join the masses in denouncing the family!
It can be said.
This move.
Directly caused a severe credibility crisis for the family among the visitors!
At this moment.
Several Dreamweavers arrived at the bustling Oti Mall.
Although they worked for the family, they were also players of Honkai: Star Rail.
Since the family issued the lockdown order.
They felt extreme anger and dissatisfaction!
Thus.
They quickly reached a consensus.
Decided to do something big!
They were dividing tasks, some cracking the signal points, others setting up memory essence.
"Even if I lose this job, I will make Honkai: Star Rail appear at the Golden Hour!"
"Brothers, after this, remember to take photos and post them on the forum!"
"Absolutely!"
"Players, unite!"
"Resist the family's injustice!"
Soon.
With strong conviction, they successfully cracked part of the family's information blockade.
And directly broadcast the video of Sleepless Night on the screens of Oti Mall.
In an instant.
All advertisements, live news broadcasts... everything came to a halt.
After a brief silence.
A melodious whistle sounded.
The visitors of the Golden Hour.
All stopped in their tracks!
Looking towards Oti Mall!
"What's that sound!"
"Holy crap! It's Sleepless Night!"
"This... didn't the family block Honkai: Star Rail information!"
"Am I hallucinating!"
"No, it's real! And all the screens at Oti Mall are showing Sleepless Night!"
"Was it those Dreamweaver players?"
"Amazing! They really did it! You guys are awesome!"
"And you, my friends, you are the true Heroes!"
"Family leaders, come out and speak!"
"Oti Mall has been taken over by us players!"
"This is a victory for Star Rail players!"
"Now it's truly a Sleepless Night!"
