Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 152 [Harmony] Hippe

Hipper's reputation, well, it's not particularly good.

Although His philosophy of "helping the weak with the strong and protecting the living with the dead" sounds selfless, it is ultimately a definition given by humans.

His bad reputation stems from the fact that he assimilated the One of Order.

It was during the time of the God Wars.

The war of the gods that caused the global locust plague was originally led by Taiyi. As a result, after the war ended, the enemy died, but Taiyi was gone.

The timing of Hippe's assimilation of Taiyi was somewhat subtle, but no one could fathom the Star God's thoughts; they could only judge whether Hippe had malicious intent based on their own narrow sense of good and evil.

The scientists of the Genius Club, the scholars of the Erudite Society, and the believers of [Order] have all speculated about this.

In reality, it was completely unnecessary. Leaving aside how humans could possibly understand the Star God, even when Yun Zhi—the only messenger who could look directly at the Star God and converse with him—went to ask Him, He evaded his questions.

He doesn't want to say, so no one knows what He thinks, nor do they know what the guys who participated in the war of gods thought.

Even Aha doesn't say that.

Why is it so hard to find a star god who will answer all your questions?

"Hahaha, Xiao Zhi asked me, ask me now!"

A familiar voice came to my ears.

Lan's face darkened again.

Yunzhi: "...Lord Changletian, may I ask why Xipei assimilated Taiyi?"

"Hahahaha, little Zhizhi, become Aha's messenger, and Aha will tell you, hahahaha..."

Yunzhi: I knew it.

Lan: ...Get out of here!

"Then forget it. Anyway, we've already swallowed it. Even if we knew what Hipe was thinking, we couldn't make Him spit out Taiyi."

The crescent moon in the clouds.

Aha continued laughing, his voice fading into the distance.

But He did not disappear.

Who knows where they're still spying? Lately, the antics of Xianzhou have provided them with all the laughs for the year.

Embarrassing.

"No matter what, let's go see Hipper first. After all, things are probably a bit troublesome with Pinocchio."

Yun made up her mind.

------------------

the next day……

For some reason, after leaving the immortal ship, Yunzhi suddenly had a strange feeling of "Ah, I'm free".

Lan didn't come along.

He wasn't particularly fond of Hippe, who liked to ask questions like "Want to be family with me?" as soon as they met.

Moreover, Hipe is a cluster of star gods, and when you talk to Him, you always feel like you are talking to a multitude of people.

The galaxy where [Tong Xie] is located is quite magnificent.

At least that's how it is around Hipper; he's surrounded by countless puzzle pieces.

It gives you a feeling of...childhood.

Scattered puzzle pieces and such...

When Yun arrived at the [Tongxie] star system, he saw from afar that the three-faced but quite handsome star god was closing his eyes and hanging his hands, gazing at a world of unknown origin.

But it's so weird, that jigsaw puzzle body is really weird.

Yun took a deep breath.

The true form of the Star God was enormous, so Yun Zhi naturally used his true form to communicate with him.

Otherwise, the Star God truly wouldn't be able to see him.

His figure expanded, he dismounted, and stepped into the void.

Yun bowed to Xipei and said, "Your Majesty, it has been a long time since I last greeted you."

Noticing the person in front of her, Hippe smiled, her eyes crinkling:

"Oh, it's you."

He welcomes everyone in the same way.

But Yunzhi still didn't get too close.

Although there is no situation where the fates of [Hunting] and [Harmony] are similar, it is still best not to get too close to Him.

Moreover, Hipper's gaze at him gave him a bad feeling—it was as if thousands of eyes were staring at him.

Truly the focus of everyone's attention.

"Having heard that the Harmonious Music Festival will soon be held in Pinocchio, I have come to offer my congratulations. Will the Heavenly Lord descend upon Pinocchio incarnate?"

Hippe laughed happily: "I know the answer perfectly well."

Why bother asking?

"Even though I know..."

"That place..."

"It's not very good right now."

A man's voice, a woman's voice, a child's voice, an old person's voice...

Yunzhi filtered the information in his ears and put it into a single sentence.

Although the family always proclaims that "the embodiment of harmony will descend during the Harmony Ceremony," with many titles such as "The Choir of Harmony" or "The Infinite Chief," because Hippe is a thousand-faced god, with one face in front.

However, it is not necessarily the embodiment of "harmony".

After all, no one knows what the Star God's incarnation looks like... except for Lan, but it's not always like this.

Yun sighed, clearing his mind of the noise, and continued listening to Xipei speak.

"them……"

"Promoting my alter ego..."

"But not all of them are my incarnations..."

Hippe's voice, like singing, became increasingly rhythmic.

"singing……"

"It's not harmonious anymore..."

"There's static..."

"Zhi...Yunzhi..."

"Did you hear that?"

The voice grew increasingly alluring.

What, does that mean other sounds got mixed in with the singing of "Tong Xie"?

"Is it related to [order]?"

[Order] There used to be a choir.

Hippe smiled gently, but did not answer Yun's question; instead, she gave an irrelevant answer:

"I……"

"Looking forward to it..."

"Pinocconi's..."

"Belonging—"

Is it "storage protection"?

Is it "order"?

Is it 【同谐】?

Or, it is—

【open up】?

Yun Zhi rubbed his forehead.

I almost forgot, that's not the point. He came to find Hippe because...

"Your Majesty, I will also be attending this Harmonious Music Ceremony."

"If things really escalate accidentally, I hope the Heavenly Emperor will forgive me."

If something really happens there, don't blame him for calling on the Immortal Ship Alliance to take the Star Destroyer and shoot Pinocchio to pieces.

Hipper: ...

Having understood Yunzhi's subtext, the collective consciousness felt as if it had choked.

So, what I've been asking all this time is to say that if Pinocchio has any problems, then let Pinocchio be completely fine.

Judging from Yunzhi's expression, he must have come specifically to inform Him.

At that moment, the master of [Harmony] wanted to throw this [Hunter] deputy general out of the star system.
