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

In the chat group, the viewers' eyes twitched and their brows trembled slightly.

You know a bit too much, don't you?

Inside the space station.

The three members of Black Tower exchanged bewildered glances. Developing a star core... they really didn't know how.

But they wouldn't be bothered by vanity. What truly kept them on edge was that Lai Gushi had managed to pull off such a massive undertaking as the Iron Tomb without running out of energy or wisdom!

He spoke modestly, saying "just happened to be one of them," but his casual attitude of treating the star core like a melon seed, as if it were just a random trinket to play with, was impossible to hide.

The gap between geniuses seems quite large?

Black Tower's eyes narrowed.

"This guy shouldn't be unknown; his name should be familiar to everyone! But..."

Did he also use some method similar to Polka's to conceal his existence? How come this person doesn't fit the description at all?

She flipped through the club's information compilation in her hand. The further she went, the more incomplete it became. Some of the information was missing, with no biographical details about the individuals except for their achievements. Even their birth and death dates were only approximate.

Perhaps only the Venerable Boshi knows the true identity of Laigushi at this moment?

"Tsk..."

It's not just geniuses.

Now, everyone in the entire Starsea is a bit paranoid about Lai Gushi's research project. With the Iron Tomb case as a precedent, everyone feels that he's about to pull out some amazing treasure from his crotch!

[March 7th: You... is there anything in this universe that you can't do? Why don't you create a star god?!]

[Star: This guy has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. And... he really wants to turn me into some kind of weird mutant! It seems like if he weren't so busy training Iron Tomb, he might have pulled off some amazing feats!]

[Fireworks: What exactly is a Star Core? It's certainly rare, but it doesn't seem like it's all that scarce, right? Even if it has some use, does it really mean Little Gray can directly super evolve and surpass Iron Tomb?]

[Star: Let's see what Gu Shi has to say.]

Xing's face froze for a moment, then she murmured the description Lai Gushi had given to the "Star Core": "The seed of [Destruction]...?"

[March 7th: Is there anything wrong with what you said?]

[Dan Heng: Judging solely from the literal meaning of the sentence, it could be understood as the root of the disaster. However, given that "destruction" is a destiny, if we speculate in an absurd direction, perhaps it could be understood as... having a core completely identical to that of the Destruction Star God.]

[March 7th: Huh?!]

[Star: Huh? Teacher Danheng, don't talk nonsense! Does that mean if I conquer the Star Core, I can stand on top of all the Annihilation Lords and become the Crown Prince of Destruction? Ah, that's not quite right, is it?]

[March 7th: What kind of weird female lead is this?]

[Dan Heng: This... I was just explaining it.]

[Lagushi: Lord Star. Your thinking... well, Nanuk's perspective is truly unique.]

Lai Gushi said calmly, "This matter is of great importance, please consider it carefully."

His tone was unhurried, like a trillionaire slapping a million-dollar check into a homeless man's hand and telling him not to lose it. His words were sincere, but not particularly earnest or enthusiastic.

He simply said it: "After all, the choice before you... has a one-in-three chance of elevating you to the status of a unique being in the galaxy."

[Star: ...Holy crap, Hakivili! Teacher Danheng, you seem to have guessed right!]

Unfortunately, no one responded to her surprise.

Lai Gushi's casual remark silenced the entire group chat.

The description of "the only existence in the galaxy" is vague and sounds like the mystical talk of a charlatan.

But given that it was Lai Gushi who said this, people could only guess the worst possible outcome!

What does it mean to be unique in the galaxy? The Iron Tomb certainly can't reach that level. There are at least six other Great Lords of Annihilation like him.

That means there's only one option left within the known range... Star God!

A star god with a unique destiny and extraordinary combat power!

Creating a star god? What arrogance! To say something like that so casually is worse than a fortune teller on the street. It's such a huge boast that only a fool would believe it.

But... he's a Rikushi!

These three words have been imbued with a certain magic; no matter how outrageous the words are, everyone in the galaxy has to carefully consider them before they come out of his mouth.

[March 7th: I... I didn't misunderstand, did I? He means to elevate a star to a star god? He... he can't really do that, can he?]

"???" Hei Ta slammed her hand on the table and stood up. She frantically flipped through the documents in her hand, all the way to the last page. Looking at the name on it, her eyes were filled with doubt and uncertainty.

"Could it be... impossible!"

The few lines of records still undeniably surpassed everyone in the Genius Club, and even... more than just people!

"If that's the case, then not only will Bo Shizun's reputation become strange, but the very existence of the club will become absurd."

She quickly sat down, trying to suppress her emotions.

No, there's no evidence, there's still no evidence, it might not be true...

Who knows, maybe Lai Gushi really did spring out of a rock?

[Potio: Should I call the Star Core a monster, or this guy a monster? What kind of adorable things are these?]

[Fu Xuan: This is so bizarre...]

[Jing Yuan: Is it bizarre? Perhaps our guess is even a bit conservative. Even if one becomes a Star God, does that mean one is unique in the galaxy?]

[Sunday: If we focus solely on the key word "unique," then clearly, overwhelming the Star God—note, it must be overwhelming—and establishing a new order and structure in the universe is the only way to truly live up to the title of "unique" in any sense.]

[Hanabi: Wow~~! Does Little Gray Fur have this kind of potential?]

[March 7th: Stop guessing! What will the stars become if you keep guessing? I'm starting to get the feeling that she's standing outside the "membrane" of the universe, poking at it with her finger like dough, making the universe bouncy and chewy!]

[Star: If that's the case... then agreeing doesn't seem like a bad idea?]

[Bai Er: Partner! A hero can't give up halfway!]

[Star: Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Why don't you think about it the other way around? I'll pretend to agree first, then once I'm invincible, I'll go back on my word... oh wait, what's that saying again? Right, it's that great men don't concern themselves with trifles. I'll just slap Iron Tomb to death, and everything will be solved, right?]

[Bai E: This method is really...]

Partner, how could you say that so confidently?

[Star: @Laigushi, come on, I agree. If you don't believe me, I swear by the Milky Way!]

[Laigushi: ...No need. I wonder if anyone has ever said that your ingenious ideas and...flexible approaches are perhaps unique in the galaxy.]
