Jimi continued, "Because this power doesn't belong to any current destiny path, the damage dealt by 'Hengjin Pioneer' is all special numbers that are gold with white edges."
The screen displays the character's skills.
From left to right are:
Kafka, Black Swan, Hengjin Trail Blazers, Rakshasa.
(P.S.: You can skip to the following section; there's a summary at the end!!!)
Basic attack: Single-target damage, applies 1 stack of Price Tag to the target.
Skill Effect: [Star wields a closed fan, thrusting or sweeping rapidly like a short stick. The coins at the end of the fan clang with a crisp metallic sound as they swing, leaving a brief golden afterimage upon hitting an enemy.]
Combat Skill: Deals golden damage equal to 50% of the Trailblazer's attack power to all enemies and applies 2 stacks of Price Tag.
Then trigger "Weigh": If the target's current price tag layer is odd, apply an additional layer; if it is even, immediately trigger "Pre-Checkout" - dealing damage equal to 40% of the Trailblazer's gold bonus (this damage is considered damage over time and can trigger DoT-type buffs).
(P.S.: "Pre-payment" is similar to conditions like weathering, electric shock, lacerations, etc.)
Xing gracefully unfolded her fan, partially obscuring her face, and the numbers on the fan instantly brightened. She swung the fan forward, and seven golden beams shot from the tips of the blades, leaving price tags on the enemies.
Finisher (Checkout Day): The Trail Blazers announce a "forced checkout" for all enemy targets holding price tags.
Each price tag deals gold-attribute damage equal to 80% of the Trail Blazer's attack power.
Based on the total number of layers removed, trigger additional effects:
• Total stacks ≥ 6: Inflicts "Insolvency" status on all targets, causing them to suffer continuous damage equal to 100% of the Trailblazer's attack power at the start of each turn, lasting 2 turns.
• Total number of layers ≥ 12: Reduces all elemental resistances of all targets by 15% for 2 turns.
• Total floors ≥ 18: Immediately restore 2 skill points to the entire team.
[The Star General fully unfolded her fan, raising it to her chest, and the numbers on the fan surface began to jump wildly. With a flick of her wrist, the fan drew a golden arc in the air like a peacock spreading its tail, simultaneously illuminating the price tags of all the enemies. Then she abruptly snapped the fan shut—with a crisp "snap," all the price tags simultaneously "settled," and the golden-white numbers scattered like falling leaves.]
Talent: "Price Tag".
[When Xing unfolds her fan, the numbers on the fan will display the current total number of enemy price tag layers in real time.] (Similar to a counter)
Secret Technique: Upon entering combat, apply 2 stacks of price tags to all enemy targets and delay their actions by 20%.
(Xing gracefully unfolds her fan, partially obscuring her face; the numbers on the fan are reflected in her eyes. She enters "Payment" mode—a faint circular field of golden light forms at the edge of the fan. To enter combat, she closes the fan and taps it lightly, "delaying" all enemies.)
......
Track 1 – “Interest-free loan”:
When a Trailblazer uses a combat skill, if the target price tag has ≥5 layers, the combat skill will not consume combat skill points. It can be triggered once every 2 turns.
Track 2 – “Inflation”:
The trigger frequency of the "Compound Interest" talent has been increased: it now triggers twice per turn. Additionally, the maximum number of stacks on a price tag has been increased from 9 to 12.
Track 3 – “Debt Inheritance”:
When an enemy target with a price tag is defeated, the price tag on its body is transferred evenly to the surviving enemy targets (rounded up).
6 Lives: Finishing moves no longer remove price tags, and the price tag cap is increased to 15 stacks.
......
Finally, there's the exclusive light cone—"Predestined Fate."
"Recording my first encounter with Him was my destiny."
"Star: Really? Do I believe it?"
Besides the card given as a reward in the story, players can exchange for a fully upgraded version in the Forgotten Garden shop.

Character voice acting
Nice to meet you:
"It seems like I can't deny this gold coin."
Open the character interface:
"Want to see the bill? Let me make it clear first, I can't understand it either."
Using secret techniques:
"Pay first, enjoy later—I didn't set that rule."
Unleash your finishing move:
"It's time to pay the bill!"
Hit:
"Tsk...interest rates have gone up."
Teammate falls:
"I'll remember this debt."
Caught in a crisis during the battle:
"...Can I buy on credit?"
Back on the train:
"March! Help me figure out what this number means—wait, why has it changed again?!"

Special Actions
Standby Action 1: Xingjiang twirled the closed fan in his palm, then rested it on his chin, tilting his head to look at the markings on the fan ribs, revealing a puzzled expression.
Standby Action 2: She unfolds her fan, pretending to fan herself. The numbers on the fan are reflected on her face. She glances at them and mutters, "They're rising again..."
When running: the fan is folded up and hung at the waist, the gold chain sways gently, occasionally touching the side of the leg and making a soft tinkling sound.
As the battle began: Xing drew a fan from her waist, twirled it twice between her fingertips, then unfolded it with a "whoosh," partially obscuring her face, and said, "Let's put the score first."
When the battle ended, she closed her fan, gently tapped the gold coin mark on her left palm, and sighed, "Another debt."
+——————Divider Line——————+
To explain what this character does in one sentence...
She was the accountant who "labeled" the enemy.
The higher the stack of tags, the more the enemy will lose when it's time to "settle the bill".
Core gameplay: Attach price tag → Price tag increases automatically → Checkout at the designated time.
You can think of the whole process as giving the enemy a credit card with compound interest:
1. Attach price tags (everything has a price)
Whoever you hit, a golden number will appear above their head.
This number represents the price tag layer. The higher the layer, the more debt the enemy owes, and the more damage you will inflict on him later (whether it's the slowly increasing bleeding damage or the continuous follow-up attacks from teammates, the damage will be higher).
2. Interest on interest (compound interest mechanism)
Here's the most convenient part—you don't have to keep folding.
The price tag above the enemy's head increases by two levels each turn (after learning Tracks).
It's like usury; if you leave it alone, the debt will just pile up on its own.
3. Finalize the accounts (closing date)
When you've accumulated enough energy to amplify it, that's "checkout day."
She would tear off the price tags from everyone's heads and launch a massive "debt collection attack" based on the level of debt owed.
If the level is high enough, it can also inflict a continuous bleeding status on the enemy called "Insolvency" or restore valuable skill points to the entire team.
For Team Dot:
She is a super amplifier.
The price tag increases the damage of all DoTs, and her ultimate can instantly turn the enemy's debt into a large amount of bleed damage, perfectly solving the problem of DoT teams lacking burst damage.
Kafka players are ecstatic.
For the pursuing team:
She's a money-printing machine for combat skills.
The pursuit team is most lacking in skill points, but her mechanics (especially after learning all her skills) allow her to have an abundance of combat skill points.
Moreover, the price tag can also increase the damage of follow-up attacks, so every hit from Dr. Truth and Jingyuan "God Lord" can benefit from the increased damage.
cycle:
Dot team strategy: Start by attaching a tag → teammates apply poison/bleed → the price tag increases on its own → save up your ultimate to clear the debt and explode a huge number.
Pursuit Team Gameplay: Start by attaching tags → Teammates relentlessly chase and attack (tags rise rapidly) → She is responsible for generating points with basic attacks → Ultimate skill reduces defense and restores combat skill points, allowing teammates to continue unleashing unlimited firepower.
Full Constellation Transformation (Star Soul 6): This is the most outrageous change - the ultimate skill no longer tears up the bill, it just takes a picture for record.
The price tag above the enemy's head never disappears, it keeps stacking higher and higher, and every round of ultimate moves can enjoy full damage increase, making it more and more painful the more you fight, truly the "ultimate loan shark".
Bullet comments:
"Looks pretty good, probably for supporting Kafka's team, right?"
"Official pairing, that's how much influence KAMA has!"
"I still think the God-King is more handsome, so he should be usable too, right?"
"It's a pity there's no self-pull feature; it would be so much better if we could pull the God-King up!"
"With the new permanent character and the protagonist's new form, it feels like we can create three distinct systems!"
......
"Now that we've introduced the new form of the Trailblazers, let's wait and see what unique experiences it will bring us in the game's storyline!"
Finally, the mechanics and characteristics of the three forms of the Immortal Ship's big boss, "Immortal God Realm: Illusion".
Jimi removed his top hat: "That concludes this live stream. Thank you to all the Trail Blazers for watching."
See you next time!
