Ironclad: How can hand-crafted knight belts not be considered genius?

Leira's finger froze above the button.

Looking back, a purple witch's hat was the first thing that caught my eye.

"Black... Lady Black Tower?!"

"It's actually him?!"

The staff members gasped in surprise.

The staff members' previously subdued mood was suddenly elevated.

On the "Black Tower" space station, you can see Black Tower figures everywhere.

Although the replica is said to be seven or eight parts similar to Ms. Heta's appearance when she was a child, Ms. Heta's real appearance has always been a hot topic of conversation among the staff.

Apart from a small number of senior staff members who were fortunate enough to witness it, for most other staff members, the true appearance of Lady Black Tower was the biggest secret of the Black Tower space station.

After all, the Black Tower was completely indifferent to the trivial management of the space station. Despite being the true ruler of the Black Tower space station, he lived in seclusion for many years.

All the complicated affairs and miscellaneous scientific research were handled by the little black tower clone, allowing him to focus solely on exploring the profound mysteries of the universe.

This appearance of the Black Tower has undoubtedly become a lifeline for the crew members on the space station.

"Lady Black Tower! The antimatter army is back! You have to save us!"

"Yeah, yeah! And there were doomsday beasts!! We almost all died here!"

"Tsk..."

Listening to the chaotic noise of the crowd, Daheita frowned impatiently.

"It seems your subordinates really need you, Black Tower."

Another clear, cold female voice rang out.

A black-haired woman wearing a light blue off-shoulder short cheongsam emerged from the "fourth mirror" beside the Great Black Pagoda.

The woman had delicate and beautiful features, as if she were a fairy who had stepped out of a painting. Although she was expressionless, she gave people a sense of approachability.

"Nguyen... Nguyen Mai?!"

"Ms. Nguyen Mai from the Genius Club #81?!"

My God, is this what they mean by "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger"?! I actually met two geniuses in one day!

"Mom, I have no regrets in this life..."

The big black tower ignored the noisy staff, crossed his arms, and looked at Ruan Mei.

"Alright, even now you can't resist making fun of me?"

Black Tower's tone was resentful, and he was clearly impatient.

"I was just stating the facts; I didn't mean anything by it."

Ruan Mei chuckled softly in response.

"Lady Black Tower!"

Estelle rushed to the Great Black Tower, her expression panicked.

"Jiang Ning! Mr. Jiang Ning is still alive..."

"No need to say anything, I know everything."

The Great Black Tower waved its hand, interrupting Estelle.

"That guy actually dared to play the self-sacrifice card..."

The Great Black Tower recalled every scene he had seen through the "Fourth Mirror," and his brow furrowed even deeper.

"Who gave him the guts?"

Estella keenly sensed that something was amiss and silently took a step back.

"So, are you planning to go rescue your interesting experimental sample?"

Ruan Mei seemed oblivious to the annoyance of the Great Black Tower, raising her eyes to look up and speaking calmly.

"You seem to be in a hurry."

Please make this clear: those were my experimental materials.

Nguyen Mai shook her head and chuckled softly.

"certainly."

She was already used to Daheita's "food-guarding" behavior, and she had her own other ways to "borrow" Jiang Ning.

Seeing two world-renowned geniuses still arguing about the ownership of the so-called "experimental material" at such a critical moment, Leira couldn't help but clench her hands.

Unable to contain her anxiety, Leira finally stepped out of the crowd and stood in front of the Great Black Tower.

"Ms. Black Tower...you must save Jiang Ning!"

As she spoke, Leira bowed deeply to the Great Black Tower, giving a very proper bow.

"Ha, what does it matter to you whether my experimental subjects live or die?"

Are you a crew member on the Black Tower Space Station? What's your name?

The Great Black Tower looked at Leila with great interest.

Leila's bent body trembled involuntarily, and she bit her lower lip hard with her silver teeth.

"Ms. Black Tower, Leira was indeed a bit reckless... but she was also too worried about Mr. Jiang Ning..."

Estella quickly helped Laira find a way out.

"Yes, I am both stupid and impulsive..."

Laira's voice trembled slightly, and it was clear that she was trying her best to control her emotions.

"But Jiang Ning went to face the doomsday beast alone for the safety of all the space station crew! Now he's facing a life-or-death situation!"

"Lady Black Tower... I'm begging you, please use your unparalleled talent to save him..."

The safe house fell into a brief silence.

Laila's voice wasn't loud, but it resonated deeply with all the staff members in the safe house.

"Yes, Ms. Black Tower... Mr. Jiang Ning did indeed make unimaginable sacrifices..."

It's fair to say that if it weren't for Mr. Jiang Ning, it's uncertain how many of us would have survived...

"That's right..."

Listening to the disjointed chit-chat of the crowd, Da Heita sighed helplessly and scanned the clerks with the look of someone who thought they were idiots.

"I'm telling you guys, you don't even know the real situation over there."

Is it too simplistic to label that guy as "dying" based solely on conjecture?

Leira raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, carefully pondering the meaning behind the Great Black Tower's words.

"Ms. Black Tower...you mean him...?"

As soon as a conjecture surfaced in her mind, Leira was startled by the audacity of her own idea.

"He...he...but...how could this be?!"

Seeing that Leira seemed to have realized what was happening, the Great Black Tower raised his hand and summoned the "Fourth Mirror" to his front.

"Alright, this genius doesn't have time to explain."

In short, that guy is incredibly tough; he won't die.

"Hey, Nguyen Mai, do you want to go check it out on site?"

Nguyen Mai nodded naturally, her tone calm and composed.

"Since you invited me, I naturally won't refuse."

Without saying anything more, Daheita and Ruan Mei stepped into the mirror again, one after the other.

After the two figures disappeared, everyone in the safe house was still immersed in what the Black Tower had just said.

Laila let out a long sigh of relief, then collapsed backward, completely exhausted.

"Miss Laira!"

Estelle reacted quickly and caught him to prevent him from falling.

Alan stepped forward and took Laiira's pulse.

"It's nothing, Miss Leira is just overworked and under a lot of mental stress. She just needs to rest."

While Estelle was taking care of Laira, Alan looked up at the calm, still surface of the "Fourth Mirror" and murmured to himself.

"Mr. Jiang Ning, you didn't break your promise..."

………………

Platform battlefield.

The "Fourth Mirror" slowly emerged from mid-air, its surface rippling, from which emerged Dahei Tower and Ruan Mei, one after the other.

The Great Black Pagoda's calm, unwavering gaze swept indifferently over the surrounding area.

The already dilapidated platform is now completely shattered, with almost no stable open space to stand on.

In the distance, in space, half of the Doomsday Beast's remains floated silently, having completely lost its energy fluctuations.

Looking at the scene before him, Daheita raised an eyebrow.

"Jiang Ning...you really left me with a huge mess."

With a sigh, Daheita began searching for the location of Jiangning.

In an instant, a black afterimage stepped on the broken platform and rushed to the front of the Great Black Tower in the blink of an eye, smashing down with a fist carrying immense power.

The wind from the punch howled, scattering the long brown hair on the Great Black Tower's forehead.

The Great Black Tower remained unmoved, standing quietly in place.

Finally, the fist stopped 3cm away from the big black tower's face, and wouldn't come any closer.

"You dare to lay a hand on me? It seems you've truly lost your ability to think."

A seven-colored crystal chain extended from the "Fourth Mirror," tightly binding and restraining Jiang Ning's hands, feet, and torso.

The Black Tower examined the Danger Rabbit Tank's armor structure with great interest, and then immediately noticed the conspicuous crimson Danger Trigger.

"This is the source that drives you to do all this, isn't it? That's quite interesting."

However, your aesthetic sense still needs improvement; this armor is all black and looks terrible.

Jiang Ning instinctively began to struggle, his limbs exerting force, causing the chains binding him to tremble violently under the strain.

The Great Black Tower frowned slightly, raised his hand to summon his magic wand, and pointed it at Jiang Ning.

The next moment, more chains shot out from the "Fourth Mirror," binding Jiang Ning tightly like a giant rice dumpling, making it impossible for him to move even an inch.

The Great Black Tower twirled the life-length magic staff in his hand, a dangerous smile curving his thin red lips.

"Although you lost consciousness and attacked randomly, it's understandable that you would take action against me."

But this genius has never been reasonable.

As he spoke, the Great Black Tower slowly raised its magic wand, its tip pointing at Jiang Ning's brow.

The next moment, a seven-colored, transparent imaginary energy wave passed through his body, and Jiang Ning's struggling movements seemed to be paused abruptly.

The "Fourth Mirror" slowly retracted its chains, the Danger Rabbit Tank armor turned into black smoke and dissipated, and the Build Driver automatically detached from Jiang Ning's waist.

The Great Black Tower reached out and caught Jiang Ning's unconscious body, which was then automatically caught by the magic staff, hanging there like a dead dog.

With everything settled, the Great Black Tower, wielding its magic wand, led Jiang Ning slowly toward the "Fourth Mirror."

"Black Tower".

Nguyen Mai's voice rang out from a corner of the platform.

"What is it? This genius is busy going back to work on the project, so forget about using the Jiangning slices for research."

The big black tower spoke impatiently.

"I've found something great that I'm sure you'll be interested in."

"What makes you so certain?"

Daheita's curiosity was piqued, so he turned around and walked towards Ruan Mei.

Nguyen Mai would not make fun of her about such things; if she says it exists, then it truly exists.

Ruan Mei turned around, her arms somehow revealing a pile of scattered energy bottles.

Those energy bottles were all lost by Jiang Ning in the previous battle, so there was nothing new about them.

The Great Black Tower frowned, about to unleash a torrent of abuse, but Ruan Mei reached into the pile of energy bottles, pulled one out, and handed it to her.

"Take a look at this."

The big black tower took it and looked at it.

The energy bottle was entirely golden, and the energy inside was so solidified that it resembled blazing golden blood, constantly circulating within.

"This is…"

The black tower's pupils contracted sharply, and its fingers gently twisted the knob on the bottle, producing a crisp click.

The next moment, a rich aura of destiny spread out from it.

"The destiny energy of 'destruction'...?"

Daheita and Ruan Mei exchanged a glance, a slight smile playing on their lips, and spoke in unison:

"He saw this place."
