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

"Kamen Rider in Build, also known as Build Rider, is a technological armor system developed in our world called the Rider System."

Jiang Ning spoke at a moderate pace, methodically introducing the Build Driver in his hand to the Black Tower doll.

What do geniuses usually like? What are their common hobbies?

invention!!

By catering to their preferences, you can gain control of the communication!

A flicker of curiosity flashed in the Black Tower Doll's purple eyes as it pointed to the Rabbit Tank Energy Bottle and the Build Driver in Jiang Ning's hand.

"Build...?"

You mean these strange bottles you have, and the belt that can summon armor?

Jiang Ning nodded, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, but secretly suppressing a laugh.

Plans are in place! (God's laugh)

Black Tower has gradually lowered its guard and shifted its interest to Build Driver; everything is moving in a positive direction!

Sorry, Zhan Tu! Due to the urgency of the situation, I was forced to use your intellectual property rights. You should understand, right?

"Um?"

The Black Tower doll leaned slightly forward, its delicate little face close to the driver, its violet pupils carefully examining the structure of the Build Driver.

"show me."

She snatched the Traverse Driver from Jiang Ning's hand and deftly manipulated it with her fingertips.

"It doesn't seem that special; it's just a simple energy conduction and mixing device."

And this design... is so tacky and crude.

Gears plus an external grip? Azure Star would have phased out such an outdated structure eight thousand years ago.

Is the technology in your world so primitive?

The scathing comments hit the nail on the head.

Sure enough, this is Black Tower's style—sharp and biting words, showing no mercy whatsoever.

But Jiang Ning had no way to refute it.

After all, given the technological level of the Honkai Impact 3rd world, Black Tower could easily create creations with performance far exceeding that of the Build Driver if it wanted to.

Even if Katsuragi Takumi himself came to the space station, he would probably only be able to obediently act as a junior to be manipulated in front of this genius.

The Black Tower Doll shoved the driver back into his hand with a look of disgust, then picked up the two energy bottles and examined them closely.

"That's quite interesting."

She ran her fingertips along the bottle, raising an eyebrow slightly:

"What material is this? I've never seen it before."

It can actually compress and store energy, and even regenerate the energy itself inside the bottle…”

Click—

She turned the knob on the rabbit energy bottle.

The Black Tower doll brought the bottle opening close to its small nose and took a gentle sniff.

"The olfactory module and component analysis feedback indicate that there is no corresponding substance record in the database."

This technology definitely doesn't belong to this universe; it's quite interesting.

Judging from your attire, you must be a technician, right?

Did you build this yourself?

"……ha?"

Jiang Ning looked down at his clothes, and his heart sank.

They forgot they were wearing clothes!

She was still wearing the computer room work clothes she wore before she time-traveled, which looked similar to a laboratory research coat...

A bad feeling welled up inside me.

Why does it feel like the script is heading in a strange direction...?

"Interested in working on the Black Tower space station?"

Hei Ta casually tossed the rabbit energy bottle back to Jiang Ning, extending an olive branch in the process.

"Working on the space station...? Me?"

Jiang Ning pointed to himself, somewhat incredulous.

"This universe is not as peaceful and tranquil as you imagine, Mr. Outsider."

Hei Ta casually explained, tapping his fingertip lightly on the terminal he carried with him.

"Although I don't know where you come from, based on the architecture of the various worlds I've traveled through, our universe is far more dangerous than the rest."

Have you been to other worlds, Mr. Outsider?

Without giving Jiang Ning a chance to answer, she spoke again.

"I've had many similar experiences."

My collection room contains many otherworldly artifacts, such as those bizarre gray wings imbued with elemental energy, and a fragment of a red greatsword made of an unknown metal…”

As Jiang Ning listened to the Black Tower puppet in front of him speak eloquently, he was secretly plotting how to secure a position in the Black Tower Space Station.

"Tell me what to do?"

Or rather... how do you want me to prove my worth?

Upon hearing this, Black Tower's lips curled into a handsome smile.

"Great, chatting with you is effortless. You're not like those idiots who only know how to flatter."

After a brief pause, Black Tower's smile faded, and he changed the subject.

"I will allocate you a top-of-the-line independent laboratory, and you can use all the materials, precision equipment, and CNC workshops in the entire station free of charge."

Within a limited timeframe, perfectly replicate an energy bottle with identical parameters, materials, and energy cycle.

At this point, a playful smile appeared on her lips:

"If you can do it, I will acknowledge your identity as an interdimensional researcher and provide you with resource support within the space station."

I can't make it...

She paused, her joke fading, her tone indifferent yet genuine:

"Then you're just an ordinary person who found a treasure and then trespassed into the restricted area of ​​the space station."

I have no interest in useless people. I'll just kick you off the space station and permanently blacklist you from interstellar research.

If it's boring, just discard it.

This genius only keeps interesting and valuable people and things; she doesn't even want to waste time looking at mediocre and hypocritical people.

Cold sweat quietly soaked his back, and Jiang Ning's mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts.

For him, this was undoubtedly a trial.

Success brings fame and fortune, failure brings nothing!

I'm taking the gamble!

He gritted his teeth, raised his head, and his eyes were resolute:

"I'll do it! I'll replicate it for you!"

Black Tower was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting him to respond so decisively.

I thought it was just a bluff and sophistry, but I didn't expect this visitor from another world to actually have real confidence.

Now, she was truly interested.

The long-dormant research life has finally become a bit more enjoyable.

The smile in Black Tower's eyes deepened as he lazily clapped his hands.

In a corner of the control room, another programmed, standby Black Tower puppet opened its eyes and stood up. Its purple eyes were neat and cold, without a trace of liveliness; it was a standard AI-controlled puppet.

Jiang Ning could tell the difference at a glance.

The puppet in front of me, which is intelligent, lively, and full of emotions, is remotely controlled by Black Tower himself.

The machine that approaches is a rigid, mechanical thing that only executes preset commands.

"You will remain on the space station until the verification is complete."

Black Tower calmly gave the order:

"Your accommodation and meals will be provided in accordance with the standards for core researchers; you will not be treated unfairly."

This puppet will monitor your experiment progress throughout, preventing cheating, delays, and escape.

She glanced up at Jiang Ning and casually added a warning:

"I don't have much patience, and my curiosity runs out even faster."

Before I completely lose interest in you, produce results that satisfy me.

Don't disappoint me, little researcher from another world.

As soon as she finished speaking, she waved her hand gently.

The guard stepped forward and gently gestured for him to lead the way, his movements neat and gentle, without the slightest hint of force.

"Follow me, the laboratory has been set up in advance."

Jiang Ning had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow.

Following the puppet through the various modules, he finally got a direct feel for the terrifying vastness of the Black Tower Space Station.

Previously, the transformation combat and high-speed travel only felt grand;

Now, walking slowly forward, gazing at the boundless research tunnels, the various precision instruments I've never seen before, and the interconnected starport passageways, I am filled with awe.

This super scientific research fortress floating in the sea of ​​stars was far larger, deeper, and more mysterious than he had imagined.
