[Contract Summoning Card] ×1.
Ordinarily, Xu Yuan should have been thrilled to receive this reward.
But...
With a full 2% on the Honkai Progress Bar, shouldn't there have been double rewards?
Could there be some hidden catch?
Xu Yuan deliberately checked the information. Compared to when he had first obtained the summoning card, it was exactly the same.
Forget it. It wasn't a good place to study it with so many people around.
Xu Yuan put the matter aside and headed toward Jingliu, planning to discuss it after they returned to their room.
Dai Mubai's unconscious body was covered in blood. The sight was truly nauseating, and Xu Yuan had no desire to linger.
Seeing that the excitement was over, the bystanders stopped gawking and dispersed.
"Big Sister, where did those two go?"
Xu Yuan scanned the area as he asked, but Tang San and Xiao Wu were nowhere to be seen.
"When you used the Darkgolden Terrorclaw, they checked out and left."
Jingliu gently removed the black silk cloth and opened her beautiful crimson eyes as she replied.
"By the way, Little Brother, that girl..."
Jingliu's slender brows furrowed slightly. She could sense that the girl in the pink dress did not seem to be human.
"Big Sister, I made a discovery. I'll tell you later."
Xu Yuan nodded and casually tossed a bag of Gold Soul Coins to the lobby manager as compensation for the repairs.
Then, he took Jingliu's hand and headed to their room.
After reaching the top floor of the hotel, Xu Yuan found the door marked [Red Ocean].
With a twist of the key, Xu Yuan slowly pushed the door open.
The next second, a red ocean filled his vision.
The room was enormous, and the fragrance of roses hung in the air.
The most eye-catching thing was the enormous red heart piled from roses in the middle of the hall.
The heart covered a full two square meters. It must have taken at least a thousand roses to make, and a delicate ribbon hung above it with a line written on it.
One thousand and one—you are my only one.
As expected of a couple's hotel. The atmosphere was certainly there, but Xu Yuan was somewhat of a clean freak.
With a casual flick of his hand, Xu Yuan opened the system space.
He took out a pristine Myriad-Year Profound Ice Bed. A faint chill spread out, instantly overpowering the scent of flowers.
After closing the door, Xu Yuan finally looked at the silent Jingliu beside him, with her white hair and red eyes.
"Big Sister, I successfully Trailblazed a [Contract Summoning Card]."
Xu Yuan smiled faintly and opened his palm, revealing the item within.
It was a nine-colored card.
The moment he spoke, Jingliu's crimson eyes, calm as still water moments ago, immediately lit up as she stared intently at the card.
"Little Brother, begin right away."
There was a trace of excitement in Jingliu's voice as she urged him on.
"Alright."
Xu Yuan did not delay. In his heart, he silently invoked Aha, the god of fun, the Reignbow Arbiter, the Merciful Medicus, and prayed for the Amber Lord's blessing before offering everything up.
Then he directly used the card.
With a gentle squeeze, the card shattered into motes of light.
Buzz~!
A rift tore open in the space before him, and then a petite figure with black twin-tails appeared.
"Ta-da~~ Lady Sparkle has arrived—!"
A young girl's voice, part playful and part teasing, sounded softly.
The black-haired twin-tailed girl wore a flowing kimono in vivid colors like a goldfish's tail fin.
A fox mask was pinned in her hair, and her red kimono was exceptionally light. Her two fair, tender legs were slender and long.
A pair of delicate little feet stood in wooden clogs.
This time, he truly had to praise Aha, the Aeon of Elation.
The petite black-haired twin-tailed girl before him was none other than—
"Masked Fool."
"The Tavern's big sister."
"The foremost figure of the Path of Elation faction."
"Penacony's number one troublemaker, No. 1."
Lady Sparkle!
No...
Xu Yuan remembered that before his transmigration, the game's story had already updated to Edo Star, also known as the Bensaiten Kingdom.
That was Aha's territory, where many powerful figures of the Elation faction had gathered. Sparkle undoubtedly had a role there.
There was a setting in Star Rail—SP characters often had another kind of power sleeping within them.
For example, the silly March 7th, as well as... the Memokeepers' strictest mother—Evernight!
So...
Was the girl before him Sparkle, or Firework?
If it was as Xu Yuan had guessed, then it was no surprise why there had only been one card despite the 2% progress increase.
At that thought, Xu Yuan swept his gaze over her, and Sparkle's ability panel quickly appeared.
[Contractor: Sparkle] [Level: 99 (Strength converted to Douluo Continent levels after suppression by the world's laws)] [Martial Soul: Mask of Elation] [Soul Rings: Red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red] [Note: Sparkle/Firework, twin flowers of the same origin]
Hiss~!
It was Xu Yuan's first time seeing the note information on a summoning card. In other words, the Sparkle before him could transform into...
Firework?!
So that was it. No wonder the progress bar had risen by 2%, yet there had only been one card as a reward.
Level 99 was the limit of this Douluo Continent world, not the limit of Jingliu and Sparkle.
Hmm... buy one, get one free. That was a fantastic deal.
But no matter what, the two had already formed a contract. Xu Yuan was merely practicing Aha's path.
All karma and blame would be placed upon Aha!
Joyous Heavenly Lord above, this was too Elation.
Aha: "..."
"Sparkle?"
Xu Yuan was slightly stunned. Could it be that praying for Aha's blessing this time had actually worked? Was this the power of absurdly good luck?
"That's right, it's Sparkle~~"
Sparkle curled her lips at his words. Her body leaned forward slightly, and her long, smooth twin-tails naturally draped over her chest.
Since it was an off-the-shoulder style, Xu Yuan immediately caught sight of the girl's soft, fair shoulders. She was truly beautiful.
Like a swimming fish, the girl swept through the air.
The next second, Sparkle, dressed in her kimono, suddenly appeared before Xu Yuan.
Sparkle gently raised her head. Her seductive pink eyes swept over Jingliu in the room before settling on Xu Yuan.
"What is Elation? I... am Elation!!"
"Ahahahahahaha, hahahahahahahahahaha—"
A demonic and crazed laugh echoed through the room, sounding strangely familiar to Xu Yuan.
God said there must be laughter.
The power of Elation was incredibly penetrating and unmistakable.
Sparkle's laughter continued for half a minute before gradually growing quieter.
Not because Sparkle had laughed enough, but because...
Another white-haired, red-eyed person began laughing wildly as well, and Jingliu's laughter drowned out Sparkle's.
"Ahahahahahahahahahaha...!!"
Xu Yuan: "..."
She was doing the cute squealing thing, wasn't she?
Not good. Xu Yuan suddenly realized that he had two maniacs from the Star Rail world at his side who loved to laugh crazily.
Perhaps because Jingliu's long-held hopes had been shattered, while Sparkle's laughter was simply too infectious.
Overcome by the moment, Jingliu started doing the cute squealing thing on the spot.
The next second, Jingliu's crimson eyes abruptly widened, and a sword was already in her hand.
The sword was about three feet and seven inches long, light as though it weighed nothing.
It was formed from a segment of deep-blue ice, faintly gleaming as though she held a strand of moonlight in her hand.
Endless killing intent spread out, locking onto Sparkle at once.
Sparkle, "..."
Everyone, could Lady Sparkle reconcile with her?
