Sky Curtain: The Darwin Incident at the outset, the Declaration of the People's League

"But we will fight."

Tony smiled.

"Yes, we will fight. Because this is the only way for us."

"Also, don't be so pessimistic. Did you hear what that black-haired guy said? A big shot in the universe has happened, and he's going to protect Earth."

"Ah... to be honest, I feel a bit awkward. Usually, all the ones coming from space are enemies."

"You know what, I'm a little bit too."

"Besides, I also feel a bit awkward talking to you so peacefully, you old-fashioned person."

"Me too!"

Chapter 43 The Loneliest Genius in the Entire Universe

"Suck ~ suck~"

"Ah—hiccup~"

After letting out a burp and tidying up the snail rice noodle mess, Bai Jin began to think about what he should do next.

Go back to bed and sleep?

He's not a pig; he can't just eat and sleep all day.

So, playing games?

I'm not really interested in competitive games.

Why don't you try the new Stellaris DLC?

Without hesitation, Bai Jin immediately opened his favorite resource website and searched for a long time before finally managing to get the new DLC.

However, it will still take some time to download.

So what can he do during this time?

All I can do is keep watching videos.

Rick Sanchez – The Loneliest Genius in the Universe

—The World of Rick and Morty—

"wtf!"

Upon seeing the new headline, Rick spat out his drink.

He touched the corner of his mouth, looking at the name on the sky with a puzzled expression, and made sure again and again that it was his own name and not a hallucination caused by drinking too much.

"Hey Rick, is that you in there?" Morty's voice came from the corner, with his usual tone of curiosity mixed with fear.

"Although I have many, I am probably the loneliest genius."

"Grandpa! You've made it onto the Sky Canopy! OMG, I have to post this on social media!" Xia Mo excitedly pulled out her phone.

Rick rolled his eyes.

"Xia Mo, perhaps you could send a message to your father."

"Loser doesn't deserve attention!" Jerry walked by and was kicked away by Xia Mo.

—The Collapsed Iron World, Black Tower Space Station—

"Genius? How genius could he be?"

The Black Tower doll tilted its head, its tone carrying its usual arrogance.

Screw Gum stood to the side, his mechanical pupils flickering slightly.

"The fact that Tianmu has dedicated a special feature to introducing him suggests that he is no ordinary person."

Black Tower snorted.

"Let's see what makes him worthy of being called a genius."

—One-Punch Man World, Z City—

Saitama was eating dinner when he heard the word "genius" and paused for a moment.

"Genius? How genius could he be?"

Genos replied seriously, "Based on the previous introduction, this Rick Sanchez is probably the smartest person in the entire universe."

Saitama thought for a moment.

"Could he destroy the Earth with one punch?"

Genos was stunned.

"...Teacher, well, being smart and being good at fighting are not the same thing."

"Oh," Saitama continued eating. "That's no fun."

Rick Sanchez—it's normal that most people haven't heard of him.

The screen showed a guy with drool at the corner of his mouth, blue hair, a balding forehead, sitting lazily on the sofa, with a look of utter disbelief on his face.

Other worlds: "...?"

This guy looks like an ordinary old man with a lot of bad habits.

His existence is unknown to most people, and they can never reach his level in their lifetime.

What? You're saying the genius club next door isn't happy?

[This is normal. Since ancient times, there has been no first place in literature but there is a second place in martial arts. It is normal for scholars to look down on each other, especially the guys in the genius club, who are all arrogant and proud.]

[But honestly, if we had to make a comparison, Rick's abilities might be slightly higher than those of the geniuses in the Talent Club.]

There's no way around it; it's a problem with the way their universes are set up.

The universe of Honkai Impact 3rd seems vast, and it truly is, but it often follows a universe theory... well, that's assuming some players create a copy of Honkai Impact 3rd and then play it themselves.

[After all, players like to do this.]

When players get involved, things tend to become very uncontrollable.

It's different in Kirk's area.

He himself is an uncontrollable factor.

Do you know why it's considered the loneliest thing in the entire universe?

Come on, let's rewind time and see how Rick came to be.

The images on the screen rapidly changed, eventually arriving at a garage.

"what……"

Seeing the garage and the people inside, Rick let out a helpless sigh and closed his eyes in resignation.

Rick, what's wrong?

"No, it's nothing... You'll see when you read on."

In the scene on the screen, a young man named Rick, who was much younger than the Rick from before, picked up a gun filled with an unknown liquid and pulled the trigger.

Then, two blue vortexes suddenly appeared.

Then he threw an apple in, and a pile of ashes fell out of another vortex.

This is a picture of Rick when he was very young, researching portal travel.

Portal travel?

interesting.

—Star Trek World—

Captain Kirk's eyes lit up.

"Teleportation travel? This is a technology that the Federation has been researching for centuries but has not been able to fully master!"

Spock nodded.

"According to the footage, he is already conducting experiments on interspatial matter transport. Although it's not yet stable, to achieve this at his age—"

He paused.

"He truly deserves to be called a genius."

However, he hasn't succeeded yet. While he was still a graduate student, another version of himself arrived here.

A green portal opened, and another Rick appeared, wearing a dark jacket and with the same appearance as Rick.

"Wait, what do you mean? What do you mean by another version of him?"

"Could it be... a parallel universe?!"

"Isn't that just something that exists in theory... Oh, and the canopy isn't normal either."

This is Prime Rick, or rather, Jacket Rick, the one who started it all.

After Rick arrived, the two Ricks had a conversation.

"Wow! Isn't that us?"

Do you know what the worst thing about inventing teleportation technology is?

"Suddenly, you are able to travel across the entire galaxy, and the first thing you discover is that you are the last person to invent teleportation technology."

"Fortunately, you are going to invent something even more amazing."

Jacket Rick started talking non-stop as soon as he appeared, and it wasn't until he finished speaking that Rick in the garage asked, "What?"

The other party raised the green liquid pistol in his hand.

"Imagine yourself, doing whatever you want, traversing timelines you've never explored before!"

Imagine being able to go anywhere anytime, anywhere, with no one able to stop you!
