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

[March 7th: Wait a minute. Star, tell me, what does "also" mean?]

[Fireworks: Oh, looks like it's not enemies meeting, it's colleagues meeting. Hmph, I didn't expect little gray hair to be so ambitious? I thought her goal was to become the Abstract Star God, but it turns out she wants to beat the Star God to death.]

[Sunday: Hmm... the world is indeed full of talented people. Welcome to Pinocchio by train; I will certainly do my best to entertain you.]

[Star: Huh? Me?]

"You consider me His faithful follower, don't you?"

Lai Gushi said calmly, "That's not the case. I did my best to bring about the birth of the Iron Tomb, just to correct the error of [Intelligence] that was created by human hands."

"I miss it dearly. In the days before the birth of the erudite monk, the boundaries of knowledge were like the starry sky, inspiring wonder and joy."

[Fu Xuan: The era before the Venerable Master of Broad Knowledge was born... This tone... it sounds like he didn't just yearn for it, but rather that he actually experienced it firsthand?]

[March 7th: Really? How old is Lai Gushi then?]

[Qingque: To be conservative, it would be over ten thousand years. Hmm... something seems off?]

He paused, his calm tone tinged with sorrow and resentment: "But now, the word 'truth' has become a sacrifice offered to him. Genius would say: The learned one already knew this."

"That arrogant star god was born from the driving force of humanity's thirst for knowledge, yet he personally blocked the path for mortals to seek knowledge. All I have to do is cut down a tree of calamity that we planted with our own hands."

He gazed at the core, overflowing with red light, beyond the myth, where the rage rooted was the weapon to burn away the greedy plant that parasitized intellect!

Returning to the present moment, Lai Gushi's tone relaxed considerably: "I must admit that the process of resolving your doubts... always reminds me of the joyful times I spent studying in my youth. But unfortunately, at this moment, within Onpharos, my true self... has to step in to deal with the [accident] caused by you."

[Xing: Ouch~~ That scared me to death. The first half of the sentence made me think they were going to recite poetry again, I almost broke my phone in two! But the second half... hehe...]

[March 7th: So, our train's raccoon really did find some crucial method that forced Lai Gu Shi to resort to such an unseemly approach? Great!]

[Walter: No, that's not the point... That one is still alive?]

[Su Chang: Huh? Who? Mr. Walter, what do you mean by that?]

Many people inquired frequently, but they soon discovered that, apart from Walter, almost all the leaders of the major powers had fallen silent at some point, and could not be found no matter how many times they tagged them.

But they didn't disconnect; they simply had no interest in answering these trivial questions.

For those who have far more information than ordinary people, the mask of the strategist has already fallen off by more than half.

There are many geniuses, and quite a few geniuses who despise the realm of omniscience.

But given these two conditions, who else could have existed before the birth of Abhisattva?

Zandal I. Kuwabara!

"He...wasn't he already dead?" Qingque's eyes were filled with deep confusion.

As the administrator of the vast library of Tabuan, she had read some classics in her spare time, both when she was slacking off and when she was working, and she knew how terrifying that person was.

The number one genius, only one of his life's deeds has been passed down, but it is enough to make him stand out from all humans. In the eyes of some, even the Star God cannot compare to him.

After all, a Star God cannot create another Star God!

At this moment, even Qingque lost all interest in slacking off.

"But clearly, he's back." Fu Xuan stared at the calm-looking android on the screen: "And he's come back with the intention of destroying what others see as his greatest achievement in life."

Jing Yuan closed his eyes and focused his energy for a long time before speaking: "If it's him, then everything makes sense. His own masterpiece, the culmination of his wisdom, has become the root of all evil in the world. He, along with all the geniuses of the universe, have been turned against and fallen into the trap of the Star God, becoming His experimental subjects. The resentment and despair he felt when he discovered all this is truly unimaginable."

"But..." he sighed softly, "his anger really shouldn't have consumed so many innocent people."

Among the Six Emperors, Dan Shu, who was temporarily in charge of the Pill Refining Department, sighed: "A lifespan of tens of thousands of years. Compared to that, our immortality is like a ephemeral mushroom that doesn't know the difference between dawn and dusk, or a cicada that doesn't know the difference between spring and autumn, utterly smug."

But compared to others, she felt an extra sense of exhilaration. Perhaps...

"The methods of a genius are ultimately unfathomable." Jing Yuan remained noncommittal. "What's truly worrying is... could he actually succeed?"

Previously, the image of the Iron Tomb corrupting the Venerable Master was merely a prophecy in Mirror Stream's eyes, but now...

This is backed by the status of the number one genius!

……

"really……"

Inside the space station, Black Tower leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed.

The last piece of the puzzle has been completed, and everything is clear. Looking at these pieces laid out before us, who else could it be but the maker of the machine head?

She took the coffee the doll had brewed and drank it all in one gulp.

The smile was as bitter as the liquid in his throat: "Even the old veterans who 'retired' to the underworld so long ago have actually made a comeback..."

No wonder, no wonder he dared to say that he would make Xing the only one in the galaxy, no wonder he could bring out such a terrifying weapon as the Iron Tomb. Now that I think about it, these things really are nothing.

He didn't pull out some kind of Star God on the spot; he was already being very lenient by going head-to-head with the concept of the Learned Venerable!

She couldn't help but recall the scene of her "meeting" with Lai Gu Shi.

What she said about her destruction being mutually assured of each other is actually quite humble in retrospect.

"But what is this? An academic debate where the galaxy was accidentally damaged in a fight between the two sides? Or a family dispute?"

A hint of confusion flickered in the mechanical eyes of Screw Gum.

How did the club end up like this?

"Anyway..." Black Tower's boots clicked as she looked at Star, who was "acting opposite" Lai Gu Shi on the light screen.

She pursed her lips: "It must have been tough on the little one."

To be able to cause such great trouble for Lai Gushi, forcing him to abandon all martial ethics and imprison him, is, frankly, quite remarkable and impressive in its ability to cause such trouble.

But these are far from enough.

It might sound a bit unreasonable, even ridiculous, but...

[Black Tower: Little guy, the main force capable of withstanding the senior's attacks and even shattering the crystallization of his new generation's wisdom, seems to be none other than you. Don't die!]

[Star: Please don't die... What a unique blessing.]

[Black Tower: That's already a very high level.]
