Xingtetsu: Why is the captain on the train?

"Then...the bad news won't be..."

[Miss Yuexia, unfortunately, the space station has lost contact with the captain and Xing.] Screw Gumm's voice sounded in Yuexia's mind, [Our original plan was to launch an easy simulation project, but without our awareness, the launched project was replaced by a new, huge project by the simulation of Boshizun.]

After a moment of panic, Yuexia immediately calmed down and asked, "Are you going to look for the captain and Xing?"

[No, don't go. It will probably be useless if you go.] Black Tower's voice sounded, [This is a very large project. Remember the "data" that Luosi mentioned to us before?]

"Yeah." Yuexia nodded.

[Currently, the data capacity of this simulated universe project created by Virtual Boshizun is extremely exaggerated. It is so huge that it almost fills up the entire simulated universe the moment it is put into operation, so that the entire simulated universe is now operating at close to full capacity.]

[The amount of data is too large, which is one of the reasons why it is difficult for us to contact Xing and the captain. ]

[The current project is almost equivalent to integrating dozens of star regions in the outside world, running synchronously and stably. It is almost impossible to find the captain and the star under such circumstances. 】

[However, the emergency chain breaking device is still operating stably, and the screws have been checked repeatedly to ensure that the chain breaking device is stable and reliable.]

Yuexia breathed a sigh of relief, "I understand. So what should I do?"

[Do you still remember our goal?] The Black Tower's tone was serious, [If there is any way to get the three of you together, then it must be our ultimate goal.]

"Witness the fall of [breeding]." Yuexia murmured to herself, "But without the stars, I can't find where [breeding] fell."

[Don't forget, [Frequency] died in the God War and can't find the place, but if we change our thinking, we can go find other [Star Gods]. As long as we can detect the direction of one or two [Star Gods], then me and Screw can help you lock a clear destination.]

"How to do it?"

[Remember? You are now in Pierpoint of the City Builders faction.]

[First, you have to disguise yourself as a [End] destiny walker.]

【Then, bring a false "prophecy" to the builders of Pierpoint.】

【Don't worry, I'll teach you. 】

【Take it one step at a time.】

Chapter 174: Simulated Universe·Final Test·Transfer (XVI)

The leader of Pier Point's "Builders" was named Louis Fleming.

At present, he is just a little-known [City Builder] in this messy world at the end of the locust plague.

However, through Heita's introduction, Yuexia got to know the person in charge of Pierpoint from scratch.

Louis Fleming, who is now little known.

In the near future, when the global locust plague is truly coming to an end, a brand-new organization will be led to start an invisible war in the world that will not see smoke but blood.

By then, the organization led by Louis Fleming was called the Interstellar Peace Corporation, and under his promotion, currency wars spread to countless star regions and countless civilizations, which was known in history as the Border Star Trade War.

[Don't panic. No matter how high his status will be in the future, he is only the leader of the city builders in Pierpoint. Your status is the [Emissary of the End], the Dancer of the Universe. In terms of status, your status is so high that it can scare him to the point of cardiac arrest. He should be the one panicking.]

[…But I just feel like something is wrong.] Yuexia responded to Heita's comfort somewhat powerlessly in her heart.

She clearly followed the Black Tower's script and acted out the feeling of a mysterious messenger of the [End]. Even Screw Gumm praised her. If all the prerequisite factors were put aside, even he would unconsciously believe in Moonlight's performance.

This is mainly a question of temperament.

Yuexia is, after all, a thousand-year-old monster, and has indeed witnessed the end of countless world bubbles. She doesn't even need to act much. As long as she mobilizes her emotions, she can naturally reveal a temperament far beyond that of an ordinary person and the most important thing of a universal dancer... She has witnessed the dullness and even coldness after countless dead ends.

But the problem is that performances require cooperation from others.

We have done our best here at Yuexia, but...

The Pierpoint side, including the person in charge, Louis Fleming, seemed to be holding something back, and their expressions and behaviors were very strange.

He didn't seem to doubt Yuexia's self-claimed identity.

But...something is wrong.

[Damn it, we can't even find out what happened. ]

The voice of the black tower complained in Yuexia's mind, "The entire simulated universe is running at a rapid speed, and tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of briefings are refreshed every second. We simply don't have the energy to find a needle in the haystack of these briefings."

[Speculation: Perhaps this is one of the purposes of the Virtual Knowledgeable Lord.]

[I'm sorry, Yuexia, we can't seem to help you much outside, just adapt to the situation.]

【Um. 】

Yuexia raised her eyes, maintained her poise, and followed Louis Fleming into the huge tent in front.

The door curtain was lifted, and Louis Fleming took a last strange look at the moon, and sighed, "It seems that something big is really going to happen in the universe..."

"Haha." The middle-aged man in his thirties, with a face full of determination and fighting spirit, laughed in a low voice, "Look, the small town of Pierpoint has welcomed two messengers of [The End], two Universal Dancers."

Her footsteps under the moonlight suddenly paused, and her originally calm heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

In the tent, the heart of another "Universal Dancer" who was waiting for Louis Fleming also suddenly jumped up.

I didn't dare stop under the moonlight and could only move forward.

The other "Universe Dancer" sitting in the tent could only grit his teeth and straighten his back.

"You two." Louis Fleming had already accomplished his goal. He took a leisurely look at the two cosmic dancers who were staring at each other in the tent and at the door of the tent. "So, can you tell me what prophecy [The End] brings to the [City Builders]?"

However, at the first moment, neither of the two universe dancers answered the person in charge of the [City Builder].

They just stared at each other.

When Louis Fleming wasn't paying attention, Yuexia opened her mouth towards the "Universe Dancer" with long bright red hair, her lips moved slightly, and she uttered three words silently.

【Ferryman】

The "Universe Dancer" with red hair, dressed like a real dancer, moved her eyes, trembled her lips, and uttered two words.

【captain】

So, in this huge [Simulated Universe] project.

Theresa Apokalis and Frederica Nikola Tesla confirmed each other's identities.

After eye contact.

Yuexia clasped her hands together, imitating the prayer posture of the "Saint" in her memory, and lowered her eyes, "The Amber King has moved forward."

And Dr. Tesla quickly took up the conversation, closing his eyes with compassion, "One is a group, and the other is the only king of sand, and it is about to collapse."

[Under the moon, point out the demise of "order"! Be a little vague! The theme is that this world will eventually return to the same rules! ]

"After the fall of the Sand King, the world will be under the same rules." Yuexia opened his eyes and stared at Louis Fleming, who looked inexplicably fanatical yet inexplicably worried.

"This..." Louis Fleming seemed to want to ask a question, but Yuexia had already turned his head and met Dr. Tesla's eyes.

"I didn't expect to see you in this place." Dr. Tesla smiled carelessly.

Yuexia just pursed her lips. She was still maintaining her own personality, so she just nodded lightly, "I couldn't think of it either."

"Do you two... know each other?" Louis Fleming looked at the two messengers of [The End] who were in a harmonious atmosphere in front of him, feeling a little surprised and doubtful.

The two of them looked away. They were both smart girls and knew that the more they spoke, the more mistakes they made, so they chose to ignore Louise Fleming's questions.

Louis Fleming himself didn't think anything was wrong.

After all, he was the messenger of [The End] and he had never met him before, so he could only regard the common reaction of the two as a tacit understanding that only existed within [Dancers of the Universe].

"Anyway, anyway, thank you both for bringing the prophecy to the City Builders..." Louis Fleming paused for a moment, "But, there are some things I don't understand."

[Don't give him any answers! You're just trying to raise the flag, right? ]

Tesla frowned slightly, seeming a little unhappy, and Tesla's expression was seen by Louis Fleming.

Yuexia follows Black Tower's instructions and speaks directly, "[The End] never bears witness, and never answers."

Louis Fleming was a little discouraged, but he quickly cheered up, "Well, two dancers...thank you for the inspiration you brought to the City Builder."

"So, is there anything I can do to help you two?"

"Yes." x2

Louise Fleming blinked and looked at the two dancers.

"Then please bring it up."

He didn't mind the two Universal Dancers' request.

Rather, he hoped that they would have countless requests.

In this way, he could pry out from the two of them the most crucial part of the vague prophecy that he wanted to know.

【The universe will be under the same rules.】

So, which star god is this rule from?

order?

Or...

Amber King?

Chapter 175: Simulated Universe·Final Test·Combination (Seventeen)

"It's my honor to help you two." Louis Fleming showed a very friendly smile on his face, "If you two need anything, as long as the current Pierpoint can do it."

Louis Fleming, who already had the idea of forming the [Interstellar Peace Company] in his mind, really needed the two [Universe Dancers] in front of him to carefully explain the common fables they brought.

I'm not afraid of having demand, I'm afraid of them not having demand.

"You speak first?" Tesla looked towards the moon.

Yuexia nodded slightly and looked at Louis Fleming, "I need to borrow all the high-power detection antennas currently available from the City Builder."

Louis Fleming raised an eyebrow.

This was completely different from what the City Builder had thought. He thought the Universe Dancers would have some... more specific requests, rather than simply helping like this.

"Of course, that's no problem." The man with a quick mind continued Yuexia's words and nodded with a smile, "It's just a piece of cake, but may I ask one more question? You need the antenna... What do you want to detect?"

In Louis Fleming's eyes, the moon seemed to hesitate and be silent for a moment.

However, Yuexia was communicating with Heita in her mind, confirming what method she should use to fool this extremely shrewd man in front of her.

"We are going to 'witness'." Nikola Tesla spoke before Yuexia. She appeared to be a bit careless, but compared to Yuexia, she also showed a lot of aggressiveness.

"Do you know that a new god has appeared in the universe? His followers are all memetic life, or modified memetic life. Dancers and Rememberers have reached a cooperation, and it just so happens that we have to witness the end of something, which is also our mission as dancers."

Dr. Tesla's wine-red eyes stared at Louis Fleming, whose brilliant smile gradually turned into embarrassment. "Boy, don't try to find out too much. Fables cannot be completely interpreted. The future is not necessarily absolute. It can even be said that it is definitely not absolute, but the trend of world development is always the same. [The End] is the end of everything. Any [order] will collapse one day."

Louis Fleming narrowed his eyes.

At first, he was a little annoyed, but he quickly calmed down and quickly took the hint from Tesla's words.

The hesitant expression met Tesla's questioning raised eyebrow.

"Are you pretending or are you really stupid?" Tesla rolled his eyes and pointed his finger at Yuexia who looked a little confused. "My request is the same as hers. Go and start the antenna, Mr. Louis Fleming."

Louis Fleming had fully understood. He stood up excitedly, said "Wait a moment, both of you", and quickly left the tent to arrange to activate the antenna of [City Builder].

[This friend of yours really knows a lot of secrets.] Heita's interesting tone echoed in Yuexia's mind.

[We did not strictly follow the timeline when launching various projects in the simulated universe. How did she know that [memory] was created during the locust plague in the universe?]

[It’s not important, Ms. Heita.] Yuexia interrupted Heita’s speculation about Dr. Tesla in a somewhat tough manner and walked slowly towards Tesla.

Tesla also restrained the arrogant and domineering look that he had just shown to Louis Fleming. He raised his head slightly and looked at Yuexia, who was half a head taller than him. His expression softened. "I didn't expect to see you here."

"Me too, Ms. Tesla..." Yuexia paused and changed the subject temporarily.

"Yeah." Tesla chuckled and opened his arms to the moon, and the two of them hugged each other gently.

During the hug, Tesla whispered in Yuexia's ear, "Let's talk about our affairs after we leave here. I already know that you and the captain have come in here to look for me many times."

"Yeah." Yuexia nodded slightly, and the two separated.

Outside the tent, Louis Fleming walked over quickly. "Ladies, the antenna has been activated. Whatever you are going to do, I suggest you hurry up. There is a group of bugs two light years away heading towards Pierpoint."

"Got it. Don't panic." Tesla led the way out of the tent, and glanced sharply at Louis Fleming, who did look a little anxious. "It's still a long way to go for Pierpoint to be exterminated."

Perhaps Tesla's performance was too deeply rooted in people's hearts. At least Louis Fleming was not so anxious after being criticized by Tesla.

At the same time, in the wreckage of an unknown planet.

The captain squinted his eyes in the wreckage of the spacecraft in deep space, looking at the central main engine of the battleship that was finally started up in front of him, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
