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

[Star: You mean, the thing you're planning to use to replace intellect is headless and incapable of thought?]

[Rakushi: Simply put, that's true.]

[Star: I...]

For a moment, she almost laughed out of anger.

Will all people in the universe who believe in knowledge be controlled by a brainless person in the future?

Legos is really creative!

But it seems like he's not sick? After all, he successfully resolved the issue of Bo Shizun's mental illness.

If you don't have a brain, you won't get sick!

[Star: This is worse than putting March on the throne of the machine head! At least she knows to eat when she's hungry and runs home when it rains.]

[March 7th: Exactly! Wait, what you're saying... doesn't seem like a compliment, does it?]

[Black Tower: Senior, your preparations are truly flawless...]

Even as her eyes twitched, she uttered those words. Aside from her, the entire intellectual community of the universe felt as if something was choking them.

Are we being ruled by someone who is physically "brain-dead"?

Based on this outcome, even if the Iron Tomb doesn't harm any innocent people, they might as well be dead.

The Genius Club, in particular, might really have to be renamed the Smart Club!

[Dr. Truth: The members of the Genius Club always manage to pull off some truly astonishing feats!]

[Na Ke Xia: Why not let the Earth Beasts sit in this position? They are intelligent and kind; it would be beneficial for them in every way.]

While the intellectual faction was in a frenzy, the images on the screen did not stop.

"So, do you all understand?" Rigus said, "As Caiuslana said, [destruction] is not a process, but a result..."

"It is a radical transformation, a rebirth after everything was burned."

For him, it was like the universe regaining its freedom, but for others, it all seemed too cruel.

In intellectual infighting, they don't even have the right to participate.

"Heh..." Heather scoffed dismissively.

Xing retorted angrily, "Shut up! This is not Bai E's idea at all."

For them, it was meaningless no matter how noble Laigushi's starting point was.

One thing is clear: they, and everyone in the universe, will become an insignificant footnote in that grand scheme, a price destined to be paid...

Hazel's eyes were cold and arrogant: "The Onpharos have already given their answer. Whether you become a small fish to be swallowed or a giant whale to face a grand sinking..."

Xing stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with her last companion in this world, giving her a reassuring look.

In an instant, Heather found a pillar of support.

"I, Helechula, once Caesar's servant, now the blade of the Savior—will fight against fate to the very end."

She was met with scattered applause.

[Black Tower: Senior, your metaphors are as brilliant as ever. But from beginning to end, isn't this all just your personal wish? You simply don't want to be bound, and you're unwilling to be controlled by the Venerable One. As for the liberation of others, it's merely a byproduct of your obsession. Just like that world where ultimate beauty perished, what meaning does your sublimity have in a world without people?]

[Sunday: For most people, the boundaries of their thinking will never be reached in their lifetime. Living in a vast circle with no horizon is not so bad; compared to the "freedom" that can never be experienced due to diminishing marginal returns, simply surviving is what truly matters.]

[Fu Xuan: Lai Gushi, we have no way of knowing what kind of person Zandar really is. But you, standing before us, are nothing more than a tyrannical despot of "knowledge," acting arbitrarily for your own pleasure. You are extremely indignant towards the Learned One, but how are your actions any different from his?]

[Chaos: Compared to them, even the wicked ninja seems kind-hearted and soft-hearted. How ironic...]

[Legius: Ah, the universe has always been so ironic. Everything has two sides, even the pioneering Archivist. His orbits connected the universe, bringing joy to countless people. But when swarms of insects and antimatter legions surged in the same direction, who could judge the extent of the evil involved? Since that's the case, then what's wrong with me being the villain in the eyes of the masses, sacrificing myself to ensure the continuation of truth?!]

[March 7th: What is this guy saying? He seems so rational on the surface, but is he actually a madman?!]

[Black Tower: In a sense, this is also the essence of genius.]

"The noble chivalry is truly moving." Regus didn't seem to mind, but he still gave the two men a standard gentlemanly bow.

"As a sign of respect, at this historic moment, I will also reveal my true self and offer you a humble piece of academic advice."

His arms hung down, and his head was lowered as if trying to awaken something.

Soon, Lai Gushi's voice became solemn and serious: "The following words come from the Genius Club #1: Zandal I. Kuwabara, the Hidden Drahi (First Promoter) of the Beginning and End of the Universe—"

"There's no need to be angry about the truth: the value of a calculation lies solely in the answer itself—"

"As for the process of finding the solution, whether it is elegant or violent, solemn or humorous—"

Ultimately, it all means nothing.

Canglang!

The sound of swords clashing rang out, and the battle between the audience and the performers was about to begin!
