Chapter 3: Explosive Opening—The Antimatter Legion and the Stellaron Hunters

    What appeared before Guinaifen and all the livestream viewers was a massive space station, suspended in the vastness of space.

    The station was enormous and highly advanced, floating above a brilliant blue planet.

    As a soft, melancholic canon melody played in the background, shimmering illusions began to appear around the station.

    It only took a single glance for Guinaifen to recognize them.

    These creatures were clearly inhuman—their bodies encased in armor, their weapons brimming with antimatter particles.

    And the moment she saw them, her expression darkened.

    Because—

    Her own homeworld had been destroyed by the Antimatter Legion.

    For her, these inhuman creatures were all too familiar.

    The painful memories of the past surged forward, making her unconsciously clench her fists.

    Inside the Space Station

    Panic erupted everywhere as the unexpected attack sent people into chaos.

    Security personnel rushed to evacuate the researchers, while warning signals flashed bright red across every screen.

    The sheer urgency of the situation could be felt through the screen.

    However—

    Amidst this crisis, a woman in a long coat remained eerily calm.

    She moved gracefully, her hands dancing through the air in a bizarre, theatrical manner.

    She held no actual instrument, yet she moved as if playing an invisible violin, completely immersed in her own performance.

    Her serene demeanor stood in stark contrast to the panic around her.

    And even more bizarrely—

    Her seductive red lips curled into a faint smile, as if she was enjoying the chaos.

    As the camera slowly spun 360 degrees, the woman’s face was fully revealed.

    Guinaifen took a deep breath, calming herself.

    She adjusted her camera angle, making sure the livestream audience could see the gameplay clearly.

    Without a doubt—

    This opening CG had already captivated both Guinaifen and her livestream audience.

    And Lin Yu had been watching it all unfold.

    But this—

    This was just the beginning.

    The real bombshell was yet to come!

    BOOM!

    An explosion suddenly erupted near the woman in the long coat.

    Emergency lights flashed, shattering her moment of self-indulgence.

    The woman finally spoke.

    Her voice was husky, yet magnetically alluring.

    At that moment—

    A silver-white emblem appeared on the screen in front of her.

    It resembled the silhouette of a wolf.

    Then, a young girl’s voice echoed from the screen.

    The scene shifted.

    The game officially transitioned into actual gameplay.

    The same young girl’s voice continued:

    Guinaifen tapped her forehead, trying to recall.

    Then—her eyes lit up.

    Antimatter Legion, Stellaron Hunters…

    Right from the very beginning, Honkai: Star Rail had dropped a bombshell.

    Guinaifen was completely stunned.

    She had never heard of a game bold enough to feature two of the galaxy’s most dangerous factions right at the start.

    She wiped the sweat from her forehead.

    At the same time, she noticed that her livestream audience was skyrocketing.

    So, she tapped on the screen to continue the dialogue.

    The only kind of person who could speak so casually with Kafka was, without a doubt, another Stellaron Hunter.

    This conversation was chilling.

    It felt like eavesdropping on a high-level terrorist exchange.

    How could it not send shivers down people’s spines?

    And from the way Kafka spoke to the mysterious voice…

    It was clear—

    They were planning something big.

    It was terrifying to even imagine.

    Under the dual assault of the Antimatter Legion and the Stellaron Hunters…

    Just how much devastation would this space station suffer?!
