The second restaurant mainly served fish. Crispy grilled tuna was placed on a tray full of vegetables and then stewed on the stove. The aroma quickly wafted out. However, the food here was the same as the barbecue at the previous restaurant. The food disappeared into the young girl's stomach as soon as it was served.

 Estelle and March 7th had already accepted the fact that the little girl had a large appetite, but what surprised them the most was that the little girl's eating speed hardly changed. She even chewed up fish bones and swallowed them. The analogy of a star was very apt, just like a black hole.

 Then came the third store, the fourth... until the little girl had eaten at all the stores, and finally bought five more tubs of ice cream.

 "O△O~ Ahh~=~=" The little girl scooped out a big spoonful of ice cream and stuffed it into her mouth. Because it contained a lot of strawberry and mango pieces, the sweet and sour taste made the little girl's golden eyes squint slightly. The ice cream that was gradually melting in the little girl's mouth was full of milky flavor. The little girl then scooped out another spoonful and put it into her mouth.

 There were already three ice cream buckets at the little girl's feet. Xing and March 7 were speechless. If a big eater could eat a whole shop until it closed, then the little girl had eaten the entire third floor of the reception cabin until it closed. Even so, the little girl was still not full, so she planned to eat again.

 After finishing the ice cream bucket, the little girl continued her daily routine. For most people, eating alternating hot and cold foods would definitely upset their stomachs, but for the little girl, her powerful digestive system and invincible stomach could easily overcome these minor problems.

 But after eating her way through the food, the little girl found herself still a bit unsatisfied. Perhaps it was due to the energy content of the food. She tilted her head and took out a female Rathalos that she had previously stored away.

 "boom!"

 Both March 7 and Estella were startled when they saw the body of the unknown creature that suddenly appeared in front of them, while Hoshi and Danheng remained calm and even took out their baseball bats and long guns.

 After refusing the chef's request to use the ingredients for research, the chef, having given up, quickly cooked the whole female Rathalos. As expected, the young girl quickly devoured the Rathalos. Of course, Xing and March 7 also received some, but not much, mainly because they were too full to eat any more.

 As for the remaining scales and bones, Estádio will take care of them herself.

 After dinner, it was still early, so Estella thought she would first send Hoshi and March 7 to Himeko and Welt, and then see where she could go for a stroll. So they headed toward the Black Tower's office, but before that, they could take a look at the strange items collected by the Black Tower along the way.

 [Buried Soil] [Turned into Dust] [Dream Jar] [Memory Wheel] [Jellyfish on the Stairs] [Super Beyblade] [Space-Time Prism] [Saliva Cheese] [Punk Lord's Greeting] [Self-Awareness's Depression] [All-Knowing Pouch], etc., these are all strange items collected by the Black Tower, and the scholars here sometimes conduct research on them.

 Of course, not all artifacts are safe, such as the memory fragment from the Black Tower itself that Estella is about to introduce to March 7.

 In the little girl's eyes, the strange object looked like a jellyfish floating in the sea, swaying back and forth. The little girl couldn't resist such a temptation, so she curiously touched it, and the jellyfish-like thing then enveloped the little girl's head.

 Upon seeing this, Estella exclaimed, "Oh no, Star, Robin, please take good care of Hikari. I'll call Alan to come over; Hikari needs emergency treatment."

 "Emergency assistance? What happened?"

 "That artifact is Lady Black Tower's private collection. Because it has no destructive power, it wasn't sealed off. However, the artifact itself is a fragment of Lady Black Tower's memory. This artifact is extremely dangerous; staring at it without permission can easily lead to severe mental attacks. The only way is..."

 Before Estella could finish speaking, the strange object detached from the little girl's head and obediently returned to the display stand. The little girl looked at the anxious Estella with confusion. Estella could hardly believe what she was seeing, but she had indeed witnessed it.

 My CFB blind boxes of the Black Dragon and Storm Dragon arrived! I have to say, the Storm Dragon is really beautiful, and the Black Dragon is beautiful too! However, the Black Dragon has a few minor flaws.

 When I have money, I'll order the CFB statue with white stockings. Right now, I just need a Black Dragon figurine.

 I can conquer them all now, hehehe~

 Volume 1: Chapter 528 - Adventure with Strange Objects

 Huh? When the little girl emerged from the memory, she couldn't understand what she had seen: strange plush toys, glittering metal objects, and arrogant female creatures.

 The young girl's only comment on this was, "What a weird thing."

 Besides, plush toys aren't like that. She also has those kinds of plush toys, one is a goose doll she got in Teyvat, and the other is an octopus doll she bought herself.

 When the young girl thought of this, she took out the goose. Although she didn't hug the goose and octopus as often when she slept after Lanmei came along, she would usually put them by the bed.

 Moreover, with Melaloo in charge of cleaning, the little girl was very fond of the two dolls. She grabbed the goose by the neck with one hand and the octopus by the mouthparts with the other, placing them at the same height as herself. Then she nodded in satisfaction. In the little girl's opinion, her goose and octopus were much better than those dolls.

 But biological instincts are always a bit strange. For example, you can't lick the tip of your nose with your tongue. Even if you know you can't do it, you still subconsciously try, and you really can't do it, right?

 For the young girl, even though she had already experienced the contents of the memory once, she still wanted to see it again. When the young girl pulled her head out of the memory, Estella finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, when she saw the young girl plunge back in, her eyes instantly turned to horror.

 However, this time the little girl still pulled her head out of the memory after five or six seconds.

 Estella gently touched her chest, feeling a lingering fear as she walked to the little girl's side. She grabbed the girl's shoulders to keep her from moving, squatted down, and asked in a trembling voice, "Hikaru, are you feeling dizzy? Do you remember where you are? Do you remember who you are?"

 The little girl nodded nonchalantly, her eyes still holding the familiar wisdom that Estella knew so well. Estella breathed a sigh of relief and hugged the little girl tightly in her arms.

 Although Estella's grip was quite strong and she kept shaking her body, the little girl could sense that Estella was genuinely worried about her, so she neither refused nor immediately tried to escape from Estella's embrace.

 Xing and March 7th hadn't seen the strange object yet. Noticing Estella's special attention, Danheng carefully walked up to the object. Next to it was a sign that forbade touching, and the sign also warned that if you accidentally touched it, you should take psychiatric medication immediately. At the bottom of the sign were notes from two researchers.

 Judging from the contents of the record, the notes record the reactions of the reviewers after they accidentally entered the memory artifact. One of them got lost in the infinite and void ocean of numbers, thus falling into a philosophical paradox and causing mental derangement. The other saw the Black Tower in its childhood, but the Black Tower at that time had already shown superhuman wisdom.

 So all the reviewers could do was shout, "Ms. Black Tower is the best! Ms. Black Tower is unparalleled!" Of course, there was a solution. Following Ms. Black Tower's instructions, Estelle found a book published by the Society of the Learned and read it to them. After that, the two reviewers returned to normal.

 "This strange object was created by Ms. Black Tower and Yi Ting in collaboration. Its main purpose is to allow Ms. Black Tower to relive her childhood. If you accidentally come into contact with it, there is a very high probability that you will suffer a severe mental attack. Although there is a solution, temporary mental disorder is not pleasant, so it is strictly forbidden to touch it."

 "Wow, this thing is amazing! Let me see..."

 Before Danheng could finish speaking, Xing, who had heard that the artifact contained memories of Black Tower's childhood, was immediately intrigued. Although Estella warned that the artifact was dangerous, Xing didn't care about that now. She went to the artifact and touched it.

 "vomit!"

 As soon as Xing was enveloped by the strange object, she pulled her head out of it. After gagging twice, Xing looked up at March 7 and Dan Heng. Holding back the tears in her eyes, Xing said to March 7 and Dan Heng, "March, Dan Heng, the things inside are so beautiful. Black Tower was really cute when it was little. You should come and see for yourself."

 "Hey, at least wipe your tears before you say that. How could I possibly fall for something so simple?"

 Even though Xing was still trying to drag her into this mess, March 7th still walked behind Xing and gently patted her back to make her feel more comfortable. Estella only spoke up after seeing that Xing didn't have any strange symptoms.

 "This artifact contains a large amount of research records and calculation methods about the Black Tower Lady. People without professional training would find it difficult to process and analyze this knowledge immediately upon exposure, which would lead to mental confusion. Xing's reaction was the mildest. As for Xiao Guang, there is only one reason I can think of: Xiao Guang is really smart. She must have understood the Black Tower Lady's knowledge to remain unaffected."

 Upon hearing this, both Dan Heng and San Yueqi looked at the young girl in surprise. Xing's reaction wasn't unexpected; as a Star Core Essence, Xing's condition couldn't be judged by normal standards. But the young girl's reaction...

 Why is that? Could it be that there is a galaxy inside the young girl's body?

 Meanwhile, the young girl was playing with a strange object called the "Super King Spinning Top." According to records, this object originated from the Academy of Sciences and was created by Dr. Dewey.

 What started as a cosmic spinning top competition held within a laboratory took place during the semi-finals. In an attempt to defeat a formidable opponent in the finals, Dr. Dewey, driven by an insatiable competitive spirit, added some weaponry and power modules typically found only on warships to his Super Beyblade. The result, of course, was that it successfully caused an explosion during the finals, injuring and hospitalizing hundreds of spectators.

 Logically speaking, given the young girl's age and demonstrated abilities, she should have no understanding of this spinning top, or even heard of it before, and therefore wouldn't understand how it was constructed. However, in reality, the young girl simply tried a few times and disassembled multiple devices on it, including the particle destroyer, the sword-shaped swallowing bullet, and the cheerleading horn.

 Danheng had read the description of the spinning top, and Estella also clearly understood the destructive power of the spinning top. However, the little girl disassembled the spinning top right in front of her, which was hard for Estella to imagine. Could the little girl really be a genius?

 The way the young girl took out the plush goose and the plush octopus was exactly the same as the "All-Knowledge Pouch" in the Black Tower's collection, or even another application of the "All-Knowledge Pouch".

 However, just as Estella was still considering these things, the robin chirped softly, reminding her that the little girl seemed to be touching something again. Estella was initially wondering whether to stop the visit, but when she heard the robin's words, she looked up and saw that it was the Time Prism!

 The spacetime prism looks like a cheese stacked with mirrors, which results in multiple uneven mirror surfaces. Each small hole is an individual mirror surface, and different effects are produced when different surfaces illuminate it.

 According to the experimental records, the subjects' bodies grew larger or smaller after being irradiated by the spacetime prism. Some subjects also received memories that were completely unfamiliar to them. These subjects were eventually diagnosed with fictitious memory disorder. They even insisted that the tenants saw the mysterious face of the star god Fuli in the prism.

 According to the space station's safety protocols, the spacetime prism should be placed in a light-proof box, and no one would want to touch it. However, Estella did not expect that the little girl would just take the spacetime prism out like that.

 Upon noticing the appearance of the spacetime prism, Estella exclaimed, "Get down!" Although the others didn't know what was happening, they obediently lay down.

 Although Estella's timing in dodging was excellent, she was ultimately struck by the spacetime prism because she failed to dodge in time.

 The moment Estella was struck by the refracted light, her body shrank considerably. Strangely, the little girl's body did not change at all. Although Estella had shrunk, her knowledge and abilities were not rendered useless due to her physical condition.

 Estella immediately walked over to the little girl with her short legs, trying her best to be gentle, but her voice still trembled slightly as she said, "Please give this to your older sister."

 The little girl nodded. She only thought about Estella's sudden shrinking for a few seconds before no longer caring about it. Estella carefully took off her shrunken coat and used it to wrap the spacetime prism. After making sure nothing was missing, she let the others stand up.

 "Ah, Estella, Estella, how did you shrink? You're so cute, no, you're really so cute!"

 "Wait, March 7th! What's going on? Can it turn back? What do we do? What do we do? What do we do?!"

 "It's alright, don't worry. If there's a problem with the artifact, just go to Lady Black Tower. But don't worry, Lady Black Tower has handled many similar cases before, so it's not a difficult thing."

 Inside the office, Heita, Himeko, and Walter were talking to Nguyen May.

 Ruan Mei took a test tube from the box next to her and handed it to Himeko and Walter. The test tube contained some white gold and blackish purple powder. The boundary between the two colors was not obvious. However, it was clear to the naked eye that the powder was very small. So much so that when Ruan Mei handed the test tube over, Walter and Himeko initially thought it contained liquid.

 “You still remember Clover, don’t you?” Nguyen May’s voice was as cold as her face.

 "Clove, that's her login name on the Interstellar Peace Corporation. Her login name on the Immortal Ship should be Cangxiu Twenty-Three. It's said that a while ago, that planet was hit by a planet-wide plague, turning the entire planet into a dead star in a very short time. Could it be that Ms. Ruan Mei means that the destruction of the planet is related to this thing?"

 "Your guesses are very accurate. These things caused the planet's destruction. After this period of investigation, we have confirmed that these are some kind of biological metabolic products. Moreover, this substance is very strange. It contains four sets of genetic information, all of which have a triple helix molecular structure. These four sets of genetic information are completely different but do not interfere with each other. In order to find out what kind of organism this comes from, I think..."

 Nguyen Mai paused, put down the test tube in her hand, swept her hand across it, and said...

 "I would like to ask your Star Train to go to the Deep Realm of Jinlunga to bring back some remains of ancient beasts for me."

 Walter pushed up his glasses. "The Deep Realm of Jinlunga, huh? I do have some impression of it. It used to be one of the Twilight Battlefields, and many ancient beast remains lie there. Akivili has also been there. But according to Ms. Ruan Mei, why would studying those substances require the remains of ancient beasts?"

 "The purpose is very simple." Ruan Mei said, holding up the test tube in front of Himeko and Walter. "In my previous experiments, even the bodies of ordinary individuals and even Doomsday Beasts could hardly withstand the power of these materials. And if we look upwards, the easiest thing to obtain is the remains of ancient beasts."

 As for why Ruan Mei didn't use the materials from the Breeding Order, well, don't even think about it, that's quite a leap.

 "Is this material really that amazing? I really didn't realize it."

 "It's less about being miraculous and more about being violent. Apart from mechanical lifeforms, any organic life form can be infected by this substance, which then induces nervous system disorders. Moreover, analyzing this substance is extremely difficult. After reacting with the blood and nerves of a living organism, this substance rapidly invades the organism's tissues, but once the organism dies, these tissues gradually degenerate back to their previous state..."

 Before Ruan Mei could finish speaking, she saw March 7th and Xing, along with several others, lead Estella into the Black Tower's office in a grand procession. Xing was the first to enter, carrying the shrunken Estella. When the Black Tower saw that Estella had shrunk, he rolled his eyes and his face showed a vivid expression.

 However, when Estella reached the Black Tower, she jumped down from Hoshino's arms.

 “Ms. Black Tower, just now in the artifact collection room, I didn’t handle the artifacts properly, which caused Xiao Guang to use the spacetime prism, and then I accidentally turned into this state. I’m sorry, Ms. Black Tower. Also, that memory artifact doesn’t seem to have any effect on Xiao Guang. I suggest you check it out.”

 Hearing Estelle's words, Black Tower remained unmoved. After glancing at the young girl, Black Tower immediately called Alan to take Estelle to the treatment room. The anomaly caused by the spacetime prism was not difficult for Black Tower to resolve, but Black Tower also noticed the strange things Estelle mentioned, namely that the memory artifact had no effect on the young girl.

 After learning that the Black Tower could handle Estáe's shrinking, Xing and March 7th relaxed. Ruan Mei noticed the young girl and Lan Mei as soon as they appeared, and naturally thought that the young girl and Lan Mei were the two magical little ones that the Black Tower had told her about before. The Black Tower didn't know much about biology, but Ruan Mei could tell something was wrong at a glance.

 Simply put, the star has a star core inside its body, and the young girl seems to have something similar inside her body. Moreover, that energy seems to be in a standby state, so Ruan Mei can't say for sure what it is, but her curiosity has indeed been piqued.

 Since Ruan Mei noticed the young girl and Lan Mei, Lan Mei also noticed the Mad Dragon Virus in her hand.

 Volume 1: 529 - You need to be either delicious or obedient, at least one of those qualities.

 Despite the departure of one person, the Black Tower's office still looked rather crowded.

 Just now, Hoshi, March 7th, and Robin barged into the Black Tower's office out of concern for Estella's feelings. The Black Tower had clearly kept Welt and Himeko behind because he had something to say to them. Now it seems that this matter is also related to Ruan Mei. However, now that Estella has left, Hoshi and March 7th don't know what to say.

 Robin was used to such occasions. She would occasionally encounter such situations when she decided to become a singer and go out with her brother. However, she felt much more at ease here now than she did back then. Thinking of this, Robin observed Black Tower's office with great interest.

 The entire office was filled with nothing but instruments, and in the very center stood a huge machine emitting a blue light. Apart from these things, the only decoration in the office was the holographic painting on the left wall upon entering, whose names, judging from the labels, belonged to members of the Genius Club.

 For geniuses, the doors of the Genius Club will not open to them until they receive the glimpse of the [Intellectual] Star God, the Great Sage.

 This has led to rumors that members of the Genius Club are portrayed as eccentrics, madmen, lone wolves, autistic geniuses, and socially awkward individuals, but ordinary people will never meet a member of the Genius Club in their lifetime.

 Robin now met two members of the Genius Club, Lady Black Tower (#83) and Lady Nguyen Mai (#81). Robin felt quite lucky, but the little girl and Lan Mei next to her didn't seem to care at all. Lan Mei held the little girl in her arms, and the little girl's long white-gold tail was tied around Lan Mei's waist.

 Lanmei gently swayed the little girl's body, and the little girl's hair and tail moved from side to side with Lanmei's movements. The robin wanted to join in, but it seemed there was no room for her anymore.

 Himeko and Walter noticed the somewhat awkward atmosphere in the office. After exchanging a glance, Himeko smiled at Black Tower and Nguyen May and said, "As members of the Starry Sky Train Group, Hoshi and March 7 are trustworthy juniors and companions of Walter and me. I wonder if Ms. Nguyen May would mind telling them about the contents of the commission."

 As the creator of the simulated universe, Ruan Mei was naturally very familiar with Xing, the test subject abducted by the Black Tower. After all, Xing had once been Ruan Mei's assistant. However, geniuses are always selfish and stubborn. For example, right now, Ruan Mei was more concerned about the young girl and Lan Mei standing behind her than Xing.

 However, Ruan Mei did not mind telling them the details of the commission. She shook her head slightly and said, "No, this is a simple and private commission of mine. Black Tower recommended you, and I think it is more appropriate to entrust the commission to you than to let the Plum Blossom Merchant Guild communicate with those strange organizations."

 "Thank you for your trust, Ms. Nguyen Mai. Since you trust us so much, we will accept this commission."

 Now that the next commission had been confirmed, Welt and Himeko had no reason to stay any longer. After saying goodbye to Black Tower, Himeko left the office with Hoshi and March 7. However, just as the young girl and Arashi were walking out with them, Black Tower called out to the young girl.

 "Hey, you, kid, it's you. Wait a minute, don't go yet. Don't you really want to try the simulated universe? I, Black Tower, have never invited anyone before. You're the first. You know, even if the Interstellar Peace Corporation invited me, I might not go."

 Just as Robin took the little girl down from Lanmei's arms, she heard Black Tower talking to her. Curious about what the little girl was thinking, Robin looked down and saw only O_o. Xing asked curiously, "Did something get updated?"

 "Yes, Emperor Wars has been updated. If you want to experience it, you can do so now."

 Xing waved her hand, indicating that she would be going to the Luofu Immortal Ship tomorrow and wanted to take the test again when she returned from the Luofu Immortal Ship. Black Tower naturally agreed. As for the young girl, after glancing at the big guy in the room, the expression on her face changed from O_o to O_O.

 "It doesn't taste good, and it's not fun, I don't want it."

 "Huh? Simulated universes aren't fun, I get it, you've never played one, right? Wait a minute, I'll find you something suitable..."

 After leaving the Black Tower office, everyone planned to rest for a while before going to their respective destinations.

 "I always felt that the way she looked at you was strange."

 "cactus!"

 A big question mark appeared above the robin's head. A cactus? Who has anything to do with cacti?

 Lanmei, who had a telepathic connection with the young girl, understood immediately. "But like that short girl, they all have a somewhat aggressive look in their eyes. I really don't understand."

 I don't understand~

 The little girl, lying on the bed, wiggled her fair feet and fiddled with the red and blue game console that Black Tower had given her. Her gaze was a little aggressive, but that wasn't a problem for the little girl and Lan Mei. Lan Mei also explained to the robin why the little girl remembered the cactus, because the color of Ruan Mei's clothes was similar to the color of the cactus, which made the robin laugh out loud.

 However, on the other side of the Luofu Immortal Ship, Fu Xuan and Yan Qing had already made preparations to pick up the people.

 As for why Fu Xuan did not leave the Luofu Immortal Ship, in fact, Fu Xuan did not expect things to turn out this way. She had already boarded the star raft heading to the Jade Palace, ready to be questioned by the marshal, but the star raft returned urgently shortly after leaving Luofu.

 On the star raft, Fu Xuan learned that his next task was to take good care of the young girl and Lan Mei, as well as the robin, but this task could be assigned to Yan Qing. The marshal's original words were that the specific responsibility would be given to the two of them.

 The next day arrived in the blink of an eye. Himeko and Welt took the Star Train to the Deep Realm of Jinlunga, while March 7 and Robin needed to take the shuttle ship to the Luofu Immortal Ship.

 On the shuttle, the little girl was surprisingly quieter than Xing and March 7. This was partly because the Black Tower had given her a game console with the classic red and blue color scheme. It's also worth mentioning that the Black Tower had connected this game console to the simulated universe, meaning that if the little girl wanted to play in the simulated universe, she could do so through this game console.
