[ Galactic Baseballer ~ Open your eyes~ I... cough, I'm Milk Tea Aeon ~]

Milk tea and Aeon? How are these two words connected?

Hearing the mechanical voice echoing in her mind, Xing was still somewhat dazed. The surroundings were still filled with endless darkness, and she had no idea what had happened to her companions.

But for some reason, Xing felt a little excited. After staying in Amphoreus for so long (a whole day), she had finally gotten something big.

When in doubt, milk tea is the best choice!

In this pitch-black darkness, only milk tea can give Xing a little sense of security. Don't underestimate the power of light!

[ Mimi?]

A pink ball of light suddenly appeared in front of Xing, and inside the ball of light, a cute little fairy was looking at Xing Curiosity.

"It's you again?"

Xing patted the pink fairy's head, but then saw a familiar ornament.

Not to mention the ruby around the pink fairy's neck, her two lively ears were adorned with a milk tea and an hourglass respectively...

Xing immediately began to think, " Ye Yan keeps pets? Hmm~ I wonder what Peppy would think if she saw this... No, I got it wrong, it seems to belong to Station Master Asta."

"But... what breed is this little guy? Rabbit ears? Dog... cough, fox Tail?"

"Hey~ I'm not a pink puppy!"

"He spoke?!"

Xing took a step back, shielding the milk tea in front of her.

"Hmm~ What a cute voice, isn't it?" The pink fairy flew above the milk tea and instinctively hugged it.

"He's even possessive of his food...?"

" Mimi love milk tea."

Seeing how affectionate the pink puppy was with Milk Tea, Xing became even more convinced that she was Ye Yan's spirit pet.

"Tell me honestly, what is your relationship with Ye Yan?"

" Ye Yan...? I don't know him."

"I knew it... wait a minute?"

Xing stood there, stunned, looking at the little fairy who was trying to drink the LED-lit milk tea.

Whether it's related to Ye Yan or not is no longer important; the most important thing now is to stop her from drinking the milk tea! Once the milk tea is gone, the light source will be gone!

"Stop drinking the tea!" Xing snatched the milk tea back and tossed it high into the air.

"Hey? That's so mean..."

Seeing the pink puppy with its droopy ears, Xing felt a little sorry for it and coughed lightly.

"You can have the milk tea." She took out a small amount of flavored milk tea from her stock. "But... you need to answer a few questions for me."

"Hmph~ They're very open with their knowledge!"

The pink puppy stood with its hands on its hips, looking confident and composed.

What is your surname?

"As expected of you, you stumped them with the very first question!"

The pink fairy began to rack her brains. "Name? Xi... Lycurgus... Milk Tea... Demiurge? Ugh~ My head is so messed up, I can't remember."

Congratulations, you've missed out on the grand prize!

"Is this something to celebrate?"

In the end, the pink fairy gave up struggling. Xingjian kept calling her " Mimi," so he started calling her Mimi.

" Mimi... Hmm! I really like this name!" Mimi said excitedly.

"My second question is, do you know where this place is?"

"I don't know."

Star: ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ...

"You know nothing when I ask you anything. Tsk, Mimi, I'm so disappointed in you."

"Waaah~ I'm guilty, I repent."

I asked Mimi a few more questions, and unsurprisingly, she couldn't answer any of them. Isn't that a kind of reverse orientation?

However, it's still possible to glean some information from the little one, such as... her past.

Golden rice paddies, a peaceful village—a boundless fire burned everything to ashes. Other details are Mimi; she only remembers a warm current enveloping her and bringing her here.

Both are beings who have lost their Remembrance, and Xing still resonates with Mimi.

Now that things have come to this, regardless of what Mimi's relationship with Ye Yan was in the past, from this moment on, this place is called Galactic Baseballer Square!

Mimi is her personal guide in the Galactic Baseballer, and no one can shake her position!

"Hmm~ I don't know where this is, but it seems like it drifted over from over there." Mimi pointed ahead, but unfortunately, she couldn't see anything clearly.

"Then let's go! An episode in Amphoreus —a ' Trailblaze ' journey into the endless abyss!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the familiar Black Tide once again engulfed Xing and Mimi, but this time it gave them a chance to react.

"Ha! The same old tricks. Galactic Baseballer won't fall into the same trap twice!"

With the " Eternity " milk tea as their shield, they are naturally invincible.

Unexpectedly, it was this dazzling light that gave the ' Black Tide ' an opportunity. The invisible giant hand directly locked onto its target, pulling Xing and Mimi inside.

Xing never expected that the Black Tide would resort to provocation.

"Damn it, I better not find out who did this!"

Meanwhile, the Church of Eternity's temporary stronghold, " The Vortex of Genesis," was also established.

Blake stood silently before the black-robed swordsman, now a stone statue, a fleeting, almost imperceptible trace of pity in his eyes.

" Khaslana, I assure you," his voice was deep and resolute, echoing in the silence, "The story of Amphoreus will never end in tragedy."

Without the intervention of the Astral Express and the Church of Eternity, Amphoreus's fate... might have truly been irrevocably sliding into the abyss.

In the name of " Eternity "...

Blake clenched his fist slightly, the plain bar of soap digging painfully into his knuckles. "The final chapter of ' Destruction ' will be rewritten."

His gaze shifted to Lygus in the cage beside him, and finally turned into a helpless sigh.

" The First Cause of Life...?"

The computational project of the " Amphoreus " experiment was originally the task handled by the Scepter δ-me13 as the " Erudition " neuron. After it was abandoned, the solution is still being worked out.

Originally, there was no problem with focusing on " Erudition " honestly, but due to the corrections made by Lygus, the nature of calculations underwent a drastic change, shifting from " Erudition " to " Destruction ".

The surrounding Stellaron contamination has been cleared by the Church. This was originally Lygus to ensure the experiment was kept secret and to minimize the possibility of interference from the outside universe.

In addition, Lygus used sonnets and Memoria- encrypted environment to seal off the "ripples" of the experiment, thus blocking the observations of the " Genius Society " #4 Polka Kaka.

To this day, Amphoreus's secrecy has not diminished; on the contrary, it has been enveloped in an even more powerful virtual isolation field—a masterpiece constructed by the Church's Acting Priest.

As for now... apart from the Garden of Recollection, Amphoreus remains highly concealed, but has instead been fitted with an even more powerful virtual isolation shield, which is being studied by the Church's Acting Priest.

You wouldn't believe it, but the Acting Priest is also a researcher. As they say, appearances can be deceiving; she not only has outstanding research abilities but also possesses superb combat skills.

The so-called combat skills refer to the fact that the child has no other abilities, only sheer brute force!

An eyewitness once said that she could easily pick up and toss the " Antimatter Legion's" Voidranger, the Voidranger: Trampler, with just one hand, as if it were a pillow...

Sigh, my thoughts seem to have drifted a little...

Blake composed himself and approached the silent stone statue again. He gently placed his hand on the cold stone surface, murmuring an ancient and solemn prayer:

"May this blazing sun... defend the Eternity and supreme glory. I will take on that unfinished mission."

As soon as he finished speaking, Blake's figure surged like ink, his outline reshaped, and finally became indistinguishable from the black-robed swordsman.

"After all, someone always has to play the 'villain,' right?"
