Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

[Star: Hehehe, no, I can't help but laugh when I think about it.]

[Fireworks: Ready, one, two, three...]

"That door wasn't locked," Sunday said, turning his head away.

"That door wasn't locked!"

Under the direction of the great director of fireworks, the fun-loving people in the universe completed a perfect grand chorus, successfully stirring up the genius's nerves.

[Black Tower: Ha, such a boring little trick, you think you can pluck the strings of Lady Black Tower's heart? Humph, naive...]

At the dining table, Nguyen Mai looked at the coffee cup in Black Tower's hand, which was rattling and almost crushed by his bare hand, and thought to herself: Your actions don't seem to match your words.

But since she's the Black Tower, she still has to save face.

But in the next instant, without anyone provoking her, Ms. Black Tower also lost face.

"what?"

In the light screen, Black Tower's eyes suddenly widened, becoming incredibly clear. His chubby cheeks under his hat even made the sharp-tongued genius look adorable.

The three looked at each other, and the atmosphere became very awkward.

[Star: So it wasn't that it wasn't locked, it was that you forgot to lock it?]

[Fireworks: Hahaha! I thought there were only two idiot characters, but there are three! Hahaha... Shocking! The mission to meet the Star God, which cost the company countless resources and was crucial to the future of the universe, has unfortunately failed. And the root cause of its failure is—Ms. Black Tower is forgetful and forgot to lock the door!]

A considerable number of people in the universe couldn't help but chuckle.

The mirror flashed: "Even geniuses can ruin everything with such a basic mistake? Well, it seems losing four million credits in the stock market isn't so bad after all."

The fisherman next to me said, "Hey? So, does that mean if I throw out ten pounds of bait and catch a 30g fish, it's not a failure?"

"But the cat that had been watching you longingly for four hours didn't think so. It looked at you with concern and then brought you a three-pound rat as alms."

"This is outrageous!"

"Hehehe~~ Even when Lady Black Tower makes a silly mistake, she's still so cute."

[Silver Wolf: Hey, hey, Black Tower, you who wears a padlock on your chest, you actually forgot to lock the door? How embarrassing!]

[Dr. Truth: I have no intention of defending genius. However, I must remind everyone that perhaps we are destined never to meet the Venerable Master of Learning.]

[Yao Guang: Indeed, there must be something fishy about this. I can't deny the possibility that this major blunder is possible, but isn't it all too coincidental? And isn't the timing of Sunday and Walter's arrival too precise?]

[Black Tower: Phew~~ Need I say more? Machine Head! Even though the Omniscient Realm was denied by Zandal, it's not like He couldn't have foreseen these trivial matters. He's the one orchestrating all of this behind the scenes!]

[March 7th: Huh? It's the Star God again?]

[Star: Why? If He doesn't want to see me, he can just disappear, right? Why go through all this trouble? Lady Black Tower, what exactly are you asking about?]

Hearing Sunday's words, Black Tower sighed helplessly: "Fine, fine... I'm a reasonable person, so this isn't your fault."

"I remember Mr. Yang from the Starry Sky Train. And this gentleman next to you is...?"

On Sunday, like a good boy, he looked at Walter again before speaking.

She said she didn't recognize herself. Was she really not just deliberately trying to cause trouble?

Walter lowered his voice and said, "...It seems that Lady Black Tower isn't very sensitive to news from across the galaxy."

[Star: Oh, what an obedient old Japanese man! He's even more well-behaved than a baby bird.]

[Fireworks: I've already started hallucinating him sniffling. Although I know he probably doesn't understand whether Black Tower genuinely doesn't recognize him or is just pretending. After all, he's caused quite a commotion.]

[Qingque: I'm speechless about Sundays.]

[Aista: Given Lady Black Tower's... free-spirited work habits, she probably wouldn't know anything about this without the light screen.]

[Sambo: Oh dear, the space station is so rich, why didn't they install a TV in Lady Black Tower's bedroom? I have a great one here, a highly acclaimed and tried-and-tested product from Belloberg, with both practical and collectible value. Buying it is a steal! For the sake of allowing geniuses to better benefit the universe, I'm splurging, selling it to the space station for 100 million credits!]

[Bronya: Bay City is able to resume television production?]

[Sambo: Hmm... When it last started up, Yalilo 6 was still a lush, green oasis.]

Sunday smiled politely: "Please forgive me, in my haste I forgot the most basic etiquette—my name is Sunday, and I'm just an ordinary hitchhiker."

Black Tower scoffed: "An unknown traveler... is the destined traveler of [Harmony]? Humph, who would believe that?"

"So, I guess you two didn't come here just for sightseeing?"

Walter nodded: "Although the current situation is quite different from what we expected... in any case, it's good that the space station is alright."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, he revealed his purpose: "Ms. Black Tower, we have come for [Onfaros]."

[Star: Oh~~ So this timing is to allow March to thaw! It's connected!]

[March 7th: I remember now, there will be a segment later where Himeko and Black Swan are talking in my room, and Black Swan assures everyone that everything is under control, but then she's so frightened by the fleeting power of Fuli that she changes her mind?]

[Fireworks: Yes, and then it was Hoshino and Danheng's turn to drive the train and sing, only to be intercepted by the Titan of Strife with a single shot.]

"Oh." Black Tower's expression remained calm and composed. "Not surprising at all."

"I've already told Himeko, this is very strange. The machine head has cast its gaze upon so many worlds... they're all etched into my mind, how could any have escaped?"

"Either you've been misled by Yi Ting's people. Anyway, I first searched for those four words using a simulated universe, although I've already filtered out any irrelevant results..."

She shrugged: "But there's still an astronomical list left—like the [Onfaros God King Team] will be using King Bavilu instead of their logo next season—hopefully that will be helpful to everyone."

[Feixiao: I only watch the Immortal Boat Fox team.]

[Star: Should Teacher Tibbo consider starting a Team Rocket?]

Even with such an absurd result, Walter didn't give up: "...It's alright, please show us."

Black Tower was somewhat surprised by their persistence: "But I'm still curious, didn't the Star Train already depart? Is that world really that magical, that it would make you make a special trip back?"

Walter: "Because...we're in a dilemma."

"Two companions who were very important to us disappeared without a trace after entering Onphalus."

At this point, the image on the light screen freezes and gradually dims.

[Fireworks: So, my first field mission on Sunday ended up with this Iron Tomb thing? The tutorial is straight to hell difficulty, the game's balance is just too bad, isn't it?]

[Star: Thinking about it now, my newbie level where Uncle Yang gave me a good beating on the head was actually kind of gentle?]

Thinking about it this way, fate has actually been quite kind to her; the difficulty is progressing step by step...

"Hmm, will each one get harder than the last?"
