Kyō already knew about the news that Himeko had announced.

She's joined the train yet again!

"Yay! Now there will be two Himeko-neekos on the train!"

Little March cheered with joy.

"Welcome new passenger, wait up!"

After finally changing out of her cute pink dress and into her formal uniform, Train Conductor Pam strode to the center of the carriage, her ears twitching with delight.

"There have been more and more passengers boarding the bus recently."

Pam was very pleased with this.

Just as Himeko said, it's becoming more and more like it used to be.

"Well then, thank you for waiting!"

"After a three-month stay in Onfaros, the train is about to set off again for the next planet."

"They're really moving at a breakneck pace, aren't they? But they've been itching to get started for a while now?"

When Alicia and Xilian stood together, they looked like a pair of stunningly beautiful sisters.

"This train conductor hereby announces that the jump route meeting is now in session, Pa!"

Pam coughed twice, her expression becoming serious.

"First of all, Pam would like to express his sincere gratitude to the Sky Passengers and Star Passengers, who have brought new power to the train, Pam."

"The trains we use now can leave our galaxy and travel to other universes to explore."

"Next, I will list a few options and ask everyone to vote by raising their hands."

"Option 1: Utilize the power of exploration and hope to undertake an unprecedented—alternate universe exploration mission!"

At this point, even Pam couldn't help but get excited, shaking her ears.

"Option Two: Continue exploring within our galaxy. Next destination: Earth in the solar system, the home of Walter's passengers."

As for where the train got its Earth coordinates?

It's very simple, fireworks have it.

She's even been to the solar system before.

They tricked Xiaowei into being the fool.

"Now let's vote by raising hands."

As Pam finished speaking, arms shot up.

The result was as expected.

"Sure enough, everyone is more interested in the more mysterious and unknown universe beyond."

Himeko smiled gently, “The train has truly attracted a group of like-minded companions.”

Option 1: Win with an overwhelming advantage.

"Uncle Yang, why did you also choose another universe?"

March 7th looked at Walter curiously, "Don't you want to go home and visit?"

"Ahem... After all, this is an unprecedented exploration of another universe, and I'm quite curious about it too."

Old Yang coughed lightly. He was mainly afraid of being beaten up by Tesla when he returned to Earth and having to kneel on a washboard when he got home.

"Alright, then I officially announce that the next stop is—the outer multiverse!"

Pam put her hands on her hips and excitedly announced.

"Since everyone agrees, then conductor, prepare for the jump."

Himeko gently brushed her red hair aside.

Half a system hour later, everything was ready.

Attention passengers—

"The train is about to leap forward—"

"Please sit tight and hold onto your handkerchief!"

Alicia, Xilian, and the Golden Descent members who were experiencing the leap for the first time all gathered in the observation car with the best view, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation.

"Ah Qi, this isn't your first time leaping, why are you so excited?"

Xing looked at March 7, who was jumping around excitedly and could hardly contain herself, with a puzzled expression.

"This time is different! This is traversing the multiverse! A completely new exploration that has never happened before!"

March 7th's eyes lit up as she clung tightly to Qiong's arm, looking every bit like an adorable girlfriend before a trip.

"Ah Qiong, what kind of world do you think we'll end up in?"

"Of course, we should ask our great prophet, Miss March 7th, to make a prediction."

Qiong gestured for Qiong to begin her performance.

"Hmm... then this girl's prophecy—"

On March 7th, he closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and looked very serious.

"We're definitely going to a super fun, super entertaining, and super relaxing world!"

Suddenly I remembered that I seem to have prophetic abilities, and I started giving birth on March 7th.

One minute to go.

The carriage gradually quieted down, with only the deep hum of the train engine and the sound of energy flowing through the pipes.

A voice came over the loudspeaker telling people to shut up:

"Thank you for riding the Star Train and joining us on our journey to the stars."

"Because of you, the stars are lit up, and beautiful stories happen."

"At this moment, please look up at the universe and see the faint glimmers of light that appear and disappear in the deep darkness."

"We are born of the earth, yet we always know—"

"That vast and boundless starry sky is our true home."

May this journey ultimately lead to the stars.

Buzz,

Intense light burst forth from the front of the train, and countless silver track phantoms spread and extended across the universe, pointing towards that unknowable dimension beyond.

The carriage shook slightly, and the familiar Milky Way outside the window began to distort and lengthen, transforming into a dazzling tunnel.

Star Train, leap in!

Volume 1: Author's Closing Remarks

From November 2024 to late March 2026.

It's been almost another year and a half.

Including the first book lying in heaven, this is already the fifth one (I'm a little emotional).

When I started writing the book, Xing Tie hadn't reached the Onpharos version yet. I was thinking that once I finished writing the previous few books, such as Ariello, Xian Zhou, and Pinocchio, I would have roughly finished the Onpharos version as well.

Hehe, the result was pretty much what I expected.

The original plan was to end after the Onpharos storyline. Although a new Two-Phase Paradise storyline was released, no outline was written for the later part.

With the current lineup of Qiongzai Xingbao and the train crew, the subsequent plot will be easy.

There's no need to force it.

Besides, the plot of Two-Phase Paradise is already so short; if I were to continue writing it, I would definitely be betrayed.

To be honest, I'm not feeling very well either.

If I do the math, I started writing this book in March 2021, so it's been exactly five years today.

This can be considered as revealing the author's professional hazard.

People with back pain and neck pain are all here.

In addition, the author's physical condition was already poor, and he had more and more health problems.

The time of daytime activity when we have energy is decreasing.

This is unbearable.

Therefore, I will not be releasing any new books in the near future.

They will rest for a considerable period of time.

It can take anywhere from a few months to half a year or a year.

Irregularly.

Take good care of your health.

Otherwise, I feel like I'm going to fall apart every day.

Once again, thank you all for your continued support!
