Star Railway: The Last of the Grammer Riders

Chapter 115 Genius and Gem

At the same time, the location of Ye Tianyu's real body.

Black Tower Space Station…

"Oh? What brings you here? The Messenger of Joy or... the Messenger of the End?" A magical girl dressed like a girl from an anime... well... it shouldn't be a Mahou Shochu bar? It should be a Mahou Shooting Range (magic grandma).

"Oh? I didn't expect that the first thing I would see when I came here this time would be the real body of the black tower, the big black tower." Ye Tianyu teased as he looked at the black tower whose real body was not as tall as himself.

"Tell me, why did you come here this time?" said the Big Black Tower.

"The main reason I came here this time is because I want to ask Ruan Mei for a favor. I happened to learn that the three of you will have a meeting here in a while to discuss the updates of the simulated universe. So I came here." Ye Tianyu did not hide anything and directly stated the purpose of his visit.

"Do you need help from Ruan Mei? As far as I know, you can solve your own problems. If that's the case, why do you still need help from Ruan Mei?"

"It has nothing to do with my defect. I came here to help a friend from Xianzhou. His body was possessed by the Lord of Extinction and is now covered in destruction, but my soul was saved. Now, because I used too much power last time, she can only put herself to a deep sleep to reduce energy consumption." Ye Tianyu explained.

"If you want to find Ruan Mei, you can go to the lower level of the confinement compartment of the space station now. She is doing her experiments there." The big black tower explained Ruan Mei's location to Ye Tianyu.

"Oh? It sounds like you, Big Black Tower, seem to know what she is doing?" Ye Tianyu said with narrowed eyes.

"What a joke! My Black Tower's puppets are spread all over the space station. How could I not know what she is doing? After all, I am also interested in this artificial messenger, otherwise I would never let her conduct such a dangerous experiment in my space station." said the Big Black Tower.

"Oh? I didn't expect that you, Heita, are such a tsundere~" Ye Tianyu teased.

"Tsundere? Me? Are you kidding?" Big Black Tower said speechlessly.

"How is it not tsundere? You care so much about your good disciple Esther, but you don't show it. You have been secretly helping her with the troubles in the space station, and you have been suppressing the pressure from her family, but you have never shown it once. If this is not tsundere, what is?" Ye Tianyu said with a smile.

"I just don't want such a nice wallet to be gone. I don't care about her." Da Heita explained. "Okay, don't you want to meet Ruan Mei? Why don't you go?"

"Well, if Esta knew you just wanted her money, she would probably cry. Well... no, she might really give it to you without hesitation. After all, she really admires you." Ye Tianyu disappeared from the black tower but his voice remained. "Teach her well, she doesn't have the same lifespan as us. Don't regret it at the end."

After listening to Ye Tianyu's words, the Big Black Tower began to think.

After all, Ester was indeed a student she recognized, and if she didn't achieve anything ambitious in the future, it would be a disgrace to her as a genius.

Forget it, I still have to teach her from time to time.

This is really troublesome...

When Big Black Tower walked back to the laboratory, he saw a crystal clear blue gem on the table and a note next to it.

It was someone who just went to the confinement section and stayed here.

[This is a gem with one of the powers of "Tree". It will be helpful for your research. It can help you understand and reproduce things and create everything you know.

But there is a requirement, which is a large amount of imaginary internal energy and ether singularity. You and I can easily solve the former, but I still can't do the latter.

However, it can be made by decomposing and reconstructing the required materials.

I believe that you, as the "Intellectual" Envoy, would be the right person. 】

"This is interesting. Hmm? There seem to be words at the end?" The Big Black Tower said with interest while fiddling with the blue Herrscher Gem.

[Please note when using it: Once you use it, you will enter a trial. If you succeed, this gem will become your most precious power, but the price of failure is the erasure of your personality. Note: It cannot erase the consciousness of the level of the envoy, so it has no side effects for you, but it will still be a tricky trial. You will know after you experience it.]

"Interesting, failure will wipe out my personality, which is also a difficult test for me. The power of this "tree" is a good collection. The power in it will indeed help me a lot in my future research." The big black tower sneered at the notes on the back of the note. "But there is an old saying in Xianzhou: the weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken, I'm afraid this guy has bad intentions."

Lower Deck of Confinement Compartment

"Why are you here?" Ruan Mei, who was writing an experimental report, heard the sound of the sensor door opening, looked over, and saw a black-haired boy.

"Of course I have something to talk to you about. Don't worry, there is a reward." Ye Tianyu explained why he came here.

At the same time, Tingyun's body and soul were handed over to Ruan Mei.

"She is both lucky and unlucky." Ruan Mei said as she looked at Tingyun's body which was almost destroyed and corroded.

"Alas... yes, it's unlucky to meet Huanlong, but it's lucky to meet me." Ye Tianyu said with a sigh.

"The body is almost destroyed and infected. It is impossible to completely eliminate the infection." Ruan Mei briefly examined the body and came to a conclusion, shaking her head.

“It is not necessary to eliminate it completely. Fusion and absorption is also a good option. After all, this energy is already ownerless.” Ye Tianyu gave his suggestion.

"Ownerless? Did you deal with Huanlong?" Ruan Mei frowned and said.

"She was taken away by a friend of mine and is no longer within the range of the 'tree'. It can no longer affect the energy in her body." Ye Tianyu explained.

"I see. But it may be difficult for her to integrate and use it." Ruan Mei still expressed her opinion. "But if we can suppress the violent energy in her body, maybe it can be..."

"Take this and follow me." Ye Tianyu thought for a while and handed a purple gem to Ruan Mei and asked her to follow.

"What is this?" Although Ruan Mei didn't know what it was, she could feel that it was very unusual.

"Power." Ye Tianyu said briefly.

"Power?" Ruan Mei was a little confused.

"Yes, the power from the 'tree' represents life and death. If you want to create any life, you only need to conceive its structure and then use the power to create it. You can also destroy it at any time and it can be eliminated painlessly." Ye Tianyu explained.

Ruan Mei was a little shocked by this, but what Ye Tianyu said later made her calm down.

“But to master this power one needs to go through trials. As for what the content is… I don’t know. Maybe it’s an illusion from the past, or maybe it’s a confrontation with the dark side of one’s heart.” Ye Tianyu said after thinking for a while.

"Is that so..." Ruan Mei nodded and said.

"If you have made up your mind, just crush it. The trial will begin the moment you crush it." Ye Tianyu said.

Ruan Mei hesitated for a moment and then crushed the gem.

She hesitated not because she was afraid, but because she felt it was a pity and wanted to finish researching it before using it, but time did not allow it.
