Character cards revealed so far: Lord Ravager Xiliao, Firefly, Himeko Sets Out, and Herta
After transmigrating to an unfamiliar planet, Qi Ye thought for a while that he had landed in a peaceful life of lying flat, until he learned of the terrifying ironclad law governing the planet: every seventy years, half its inhabitants vanished without a trace.
He immediately quipped, “This isn’t an ordinary otherworld at all. It’s an infinite Thanos snap!”
Trying to stay optimistic, Qi Ye comforted himself that, at least, he was a chosen transmigrator. Surely he wouldn’t be among the fifty percent doomed to vanish. But the Day of Desolation arrived. Heaven and earth fell silent as a dark torrent swept over everything, and, sure enough, he became one of the chosen sacrifices.
Yet the death he had expected never came. He and those who had been taken away with him plunged into a dimensional hellscape, beginning a death game that would last ten years.
The rules were cold and cruel: clear challenges to earn points, but die and your score drops to zero. When the ten-year deadline was up, if the group’s combined score fell short of 2.44 trillion, everyone would be annihilated together.
In the desperate prison, with contestants turning against one another and countless players on the brink of collapse, only Lin Ye’s eyes blazed with determination.
He raised a character card that brought forth the Stellaron hunter, and the three-minute superhero swept the field. The boy shattered despair beneath his feet and shouted:
“Rules are made to be broken!”
But Qi Ye didn’t know that every move he made was being livestreamed in real time to every living being across the entire universe of Honkai: Star Rail.
