Upon extracting the keyword 'milk tea', a call from Ye Yan immediately came through on the phone:
[ Ye Yan: Really?]
[Star: " Pom-Pom is shocked. jpg"]
Just in case, Xing and Ye Yan used a non-existent 'secret code' to prepare for a round of anti-counterfeiting verification:
[Star: Question: Who is the next Chair of the " Church of Eternity "?]
[ Ye Yan: Milk Tea.]
[Star:" Pom-Pom's Silence. jpg"]
[Star: It's definitely me.]
Unexpectedly, she, the dignified Galactic Baseballer and the next Church Chair appointed by Emanator " Eternity " Order, was less important to Ye Yan than a cup of milk tea.
[ Ye Yan: Long time no see.]
[Star: With such human-machine dialogue, are you sure the one I'm talking to isn't the newly developed intelligent AI of the " Church of Eternity "?]
[ Ye Yan: The Church has such good stuff? How come I didn't know?]
[Star: Time is tight and the mission is heavy. Please give me some strategies for dealing with the " Strife " Titan!]
[ Ye Yan: Milk Tea.]
[star:...]
[Star: Don't say you can't live without milk tea! Do you think you can only chat with me because of milk tea?!]
[ Ye Yan:!!! You guessed that?!]
[Star: I have nothing to say.]
Xing's lips twitched; she was truly at her wit's end.
[ Ye Yan: Besides milk tea... you could also try soap.]
[Star: But I don't have any soap...]
Xing's eyes cleared instantly, and just as she was thinking of asking something else, Ye Yan sent her a message first.
[ Ye Yan: Let's look at it from a different angle. Why was Amphoreus called the " Land of Eternity " by that Memokeeper?]
[Star: Because of you.]
[ Ye Yan: Excellent answer, it made my milk tea swirl in my hand.]
[Star: Oh~ this damn translation tone~]
"But that aura was no longer pure; it was mixed with the stench of blood and the wails of the dead..."
The sound of Mydei and Phainon talking could be heard not far away. Xing suddenly realized that the flow of time around her had slowed down considerably while she was chatting with Ye Yan.
[ Ye Yan: The answer is concise and clear. The twelve Titan here all inherited some of the powers of " Eternity," and the " Strife " Titan corresponds to " Never-Falling Body."]
[Star: "Never to perish"... How do I even fight this?!]
[ Ye Yan: Milk Tea.]
Well, we've come full circle back to bubble tea. What else can we say?
Xing gave up on trying to extract information from Ye Yan and turned to count the number of milk teas. Her eyes lit up; there were exactly twelve cups!
The astute Trailblazer knew that the twelve cups of milk tea, symbolizing " Eternity," must be connected to the twelve Titan of Amphoreus, but...
The journey known as " Flame-Chase " is halfway complete; only the Core Flame of six Titan remain to be returned. Thinking about it this way, is the milk tea overflowing?
Meanwhile, in the former " Beyond the Myths " test field, now the " Eternity " audience area, Ye Yan's figure appeared.
"After Amphoreus, her ' Path ' will continue to unfold; we can't let that initial ' Eternity ' be buried..."
Ye Yan muttered to himself, since she intended to become the next Church Chair, she had to have the necessary strength.
" Aha! Aha in his masked form has arrived!"
A phantom image of Fool's Mask suddenly appeared beside Ye Yan, starting with a zero-frame attack:
"Wow~ They're actually making an exception and promoting that Little Grey Hair to ' Eternity ' Emanator? You're so despicable!"
"The pot calling the kettle black; at least I won't go so far as to have humans play the role of Aeon —that's just a fancy trick."
"What do you know? This is a ' Elation ' feature!" the masked man retorted.
Ye Yan's lips curled slightly upward, and he continued, "And the characteristic of ' Eternity '... is that it is unreasonable."
Ye Yan casually swatted away the illusory image of the scarlet mask, sat down in his seat, and shifted the perspective back to the Aedes Elysiae where ' Eternity ' had descended.
At this moment, the white-haired boy seemed to be at the pinnacle of the world, surrounded by the roars of monsters.
"Monsters are everywhere..."
"Where are you all...?" Phainon searched desperately for his comrades amidst the flames of war.
"My God, he's practically a superman! He single-handedly fought against so many Black Tide creations, and he's completely unharmed!"
While marveling at the mask, the masked figure didn't forget to change their voice, temporarily acting as a " Audience of Divine Ordeals."
"On the day the Black Tide struck, the hesitant boy finally set off, heading towards the first battlefield with his companions."
"And in the distant future, on the land of Amphoreus, the footprints of heroes will be etched: he will wield his sword and, in the epic of gold, write an immortal poem."
As the first rays of light rose above the horizon, a wounded boy stood on the scorched earth, silently burying the victims one by one...
"Together with his hometown, his past, his name."
Ye Yan watched from the sidelines, and to his surprise, it was actually quite impressive...
"With only his frail legs, he embarked on his journey, traversing Spine of Bedrock, crossing Chalice of Plenty, and walking through the cold, deathly mist of the Hand of Ashen Gloom..."
He wandered aimlessly, like a withered leaf falling in the wind. He passed through countless cities, etching the smiling face of a white-haired swordsman into his memory.
"He was not aimless. Deep in the boy's heart, a voice always guided him forward: to follow his heart's desire, to brave dangers and perils, simply to do what he could to save all those who deserved to be saved."
Just like the day we set off, I still hear the voice of that companion in my ear...
"Go protect those who deserve protection," the voice said. The man did not hesitate; he resolutely put it into practice.
"Only mediocre people can make extraordinary choices in this way."
He continued his wanderings until the cry for Flame-Chase resounded across the land. In the prophecy's depiction, humanity would triumph over the gods, seize Core Flame, and bring a new dawn to Amphoreus.
"However, the Flame-Chase is a journey of constant loss, and in all of that, life itself is as insignificant as a speck of dust."
"Only those who learn from the world can bear its destiny—are you ready?"
A voice whispered in his heart, and he responded softly, "It's alright, my life is insignificant anyway."
He made up his mind to answer the call of " Goldweaver " and travel to the holy city. But when faced with the young warrior, the elders only showed disdain and, with a cold laugh, threw him into the army.
"However, to the surprise of the world, and even himself, this new recruit of unknown origin would soon shine in a battle, becoming famous overnight..."
That was also the moment he first encountered all the companions in his life.
The masked voice returned to normal, "Reflecting on a man's life—what a magnificent adventure! The Hero's Journey has reached its end, and the truth of ' Re-Creation ' is about to be revealed—"
"But is that really the case?"
Bang!
Under Ye Yan's gaze, a touch of scarlet seeped into the Aedes Elysiae... no, to be precise, Amphoreus.
