Star Railway: I'm developing the Star Railway mobile game at my company.

In Chapter 15, should you choose to stay at the Black Tower Space Station?

As soon as the official account released the server launch announcement, a large number of comments appeared below!

"A fan of ten years, here without being asked!"

"This game is so realistic! Both the characters and the storyline have real-world counterparts!"

"Which company is the official agent? I've never heard of this game before?"

"Now that even the God of Destruction has appeared, I don't even dare to think about what might happen next!"

"Thanks for the invitation. I'm currently in the Annihilation Clan, and I've just become the Great Lord of Annihilation!"

"I got 20 free draws in the game's mailbox, go get them!"

"Waaah, could you please increase the drop rate for permanent characters separately? I want Clara (crying)!"

"Interstellar Peace Company is launching its flagship product, Galaxy Daily Credit! You top up 6480 credits, and we'll cover the payment! Click on my profile picture to apply now!"

May the pharmacist bestow blessings!

"What's going on? Why are the comments increasing so fast?"

Most people didn't read the game announcement immediately; they just opened the comments section to express their feelings.

When everyone noticed the contents of the announcement, everyone's breathing became much more rapid!

"My God, am I seeing things? This is a launch reward?"

"Stolen...Young Master?!"

"One 10-pull, two 10-pulls... that makes a total of 70 pulls!"

"But they're all general admission tickets. I think there's also a Star Trail special ticket, which is probably for drawing limited characters!"

"Be content. Didn't they give us 1600 Star Domes? The production team needs to eat too!"

"The other server, Yuan Nong Zhou, only gives away 20 free draws when it launches! That's outrageous!"

"Yuanbao, please don't contact me anymore. I'm afraid Xingbao will misunderstand!"

"The production team is so generous! I'll just recharge ten 6480s to support them!"

"Wow! Thank you so much, server-raising master!"

"And these free characters even include Lady Black Tower!"

"It looks like it should be Lady Black Tower's doll. Otherwise, given Lady Black Tower's status and strength, she should at least be a 5-star DPS!"

"I disagree! The Black Tower clearly looks like an Ace!"

"You little brat.jpg"

Looking at his current exploration level, Lao Mu realized he was only one level away from receiving the 10 Star Trail Passes for level 5 in the event rewards, and he was immediately filled with motivation to explore new areas.

"Charge! Charge! Brothers, let's go!"

The plot has now reached the point where the protagonist is being watched by Nanuk and is about to lose control when Walter interrupts him. Now that he has awakened, Danheng tells him to go find Himeko.

"It's almost time. The person I'm waiting for should be arriving soon."

As Himeko finished speaking, the Black Tower, which had just returned to the space station, appeared.

"I've only been gone a few months? Huh? The space station is already in this state?"

"You're back, Black Tower."

Looking at his own avatar in the game projected onto the screen, Black Tower found it amusing while also wondering how the other party had learned all this and created a game based on it.

"Interesting, a game featuring that Star Core girl as the main character..."

Black Tower began to speculate on the upcoming plot. If she wasn't mistaken, the next thing would be her simulated universe project. She wanted to see how this game planned to be presented.

"This is the true owner of the space station, [Genius Club] #83, Black Tower."

Black Tower was clearly not satisfied with the number 83.

“I’ll introduce myself properly, why mention the club? I have so many extraordinary achievements, which one doesn’t sound better than #83?”

This dismissive remark immediately struck a chord with many people.

The Genius Club is a place where only geniuses who have received the attention of the erudite can join. The achievements of each genius there can influence the development of the universe!

As long as these geniuses are willing, all the major powers in the galaxy will be vying to cooperate with them, and wealth and status will be a piece of cake!

And Black Tower actually complained that the 83rd seat was too far back in the seating arrangement...

The difference between ordinary people and geniuses is a threshold that countless people dream of crossing!

However, Black Tower's achievements are indeed outstanding even among the genius club, and he is also an intellectual envoy!

They were just stating the truth!

In the story, the Black Tower was clearly interested in Xing, who had absorbed the star core. It circled Xing's body several times, its curious gaze constantly scrutinizing him, making Xing feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"Hmph, truly amazing. To restrain this unactivated star core and save Azure Star from disaster, I built an entire space station, yet someone has gone back to basics and managed to do it all with just this brat's body—how did they do that?"

Black Tower and Himeko discussed the matter face-to-face, and three options appeared in the story.

I'm not a little kid.

My name is Xing.

Do you really have to discuss me to my face?

Lao Mu chose the third option in an attempt to protest, but it was clear that the discussion among geniuses would not care about the opinions of mortals.

After the protests went unanswered, Black Tower looked at Himeko and asked if she could use the stars to conduct some experiments.

"I can't make that decision; you'll have to ask Xing yourself..."

Three options reappear before you.

No way!

What research?

【How much? 】

"Oh my god, how am I supposed to choose? This is so difficult! Will choosing the wrong option affect the later stages of the game?"

Lao Mu was torn between the three options before him.

"Is that even a question? Of course, I'll choose the amount! My main motivation is to contribute to science, not for the money!"

"Who knows what kind of experiments the Black Tower plans to do to us? We might get our kidneys ripped off in a minute! We'll definitely be the first ones!"

"How about we choose the second option and see how things go?"

"Actually, I also have an experiment related to [breeding] that I need to conduct with the Black Tower!"

"Wake up, that's a doll!"

"Hmph, that's because your belief in [breeding] isn't deep enough!"

"It's all the same. The choices in this kind of game don't affect the plot, so just pick one!"

"That's right, streamer, hurry up!"

Seeing the comments urging him on, Lao Mu chose the third option. Sure enough, the plot eventually came to the point that Black Tower wanted to keep Xing at the space station to study the star core, and Himeko also extended an invitation to Xing.

"Star...you know you have another option. There's a Star Train parked on the platform. If you'd like, you can come with us."

"Damn, is there even a choice? Of course, we'll travel through space with the Star Train!"

Having gone through the choices before, Lao Mu suddenly had a thought: what would happen if he continued to follow Black Tower?

This idea also came up among the train crew.

On March 7th, looking at the stars, he asked curiously.

"Star, if I choose to keep you at the Black Tower Space Station now, what will happen next? Will you still board the Star Train?"

"There shouldn't be such a choice. Although the dialogue options were indeed a bit different in the previous few conversations, the key points of the event shouldn't change. I will definitely still board the train in the end."

Xing stroked his chin and thought for a moment before speaking.

"Let's give it a try now, maybe we'll unlock another timeline!"

Chapter 16 Simulated Universe, Akivili the Ghostly Boy

In response to the invitations from Heita and Himeko, Lao Mu also joined the discussion in the live chat.

On one hand, they choose to stay on the space station to cooperate with Black Tower's research, but in the plot, Black Tower clearly states that he is only temporarily interested and will be of no value once the research is over or he loses interest.

On the other hand, they could join the Star Train, whose knowledge of the Star Core could also help them.

Most normal people would choose the Star Train, not because the Star Train option is so good, but because the Black Tower has made its stance clear in the story.

In reality, this choice is self-evident, but in the game, many people's curiosity begins to surface uncontrollably.

"Brothers, if I accept Black Tower's invitation to join the space station, what will happen next? Will I end up on the Star Train again?"

Lao Mu looked at the discussions on the live stream, and they were all encouraging him to give it a try.

"That's possible. These kinds of game storylines usually don't give you options that affect the overall game progress!"

"Who knows! After all, Star Railway is a different game; maybe it really can be added to the Black Tower Space Station!"

"Let the streamer pick Black Tower for everyone! I'll gift you a big House!"

"Fortune favors the bold!"

So Lao Mu made up his mind and was about to make some changes in his choices when the story suddenly ended!

Then came the text message from Black Tower.

Black Tower: [Hey, Star, this is Black Tower. I have something good for you.]

Black Tower: [Come to my office immediately! I'm waiting for you!]

Xing: [But you're right next to me!]

Black Tower: [Auto-reply: Hello, I'm currently unavailable and will not be contacting you for a while.]

Looking at the phone messages in the plot, Lao Mu was also very confused. Weren't they just discussing it on the side? How did it switch to other plots?

Lao Mu didn't think much of it, assuming it was just some side quests inserted after the main storyline came to an end, and followed the plot to the Black Tower's office.

Black Tower, inside the space station, smiled slightly after witnessing this scene.

"I didn't expect that even my simulated universe project would appear. At this stage, it should still be a test version. I wonder how it will perform?"

When the story takes place in the Black Tower office, the Black Tower doll stands in front of a mainframe computer.

"Oh, you've finally arrived."

After some conversation, Heita explained the purpose of finding Xing in the office.

"Let's get straight to the point, Xing. A few colleagues and I are working on a big project. If it succeeds, we can solve the ultimate problem that has plagued us for thousands of years in the Amber Era: the mystery of the Star God."

"【Star Gods】—Just think about it, what amazing beings they are! Some Star Gods were once just ordinary humans like you and me, but somehow they gained power beyond our imagination! They are mysterious, powerful, silent, and terrifying! The mysteries surrounding them cannot be explained in just a few words."

"How were they born? Why were they born? What was the purpose of their birth?... I ask you, Star, have you ever thought about these questions?"

"Are you even listening to me? We want to uncover the secrets of the Star God! And we want you to participate in this project!"

The long string of dialogue left the audience completely bewildered, and they only realized what was going on after the last sentence.

"My God, is this the project that geniuses are researching? They're actually researching Star Gods!"

"As expected of a club for geniuses!"

"But what does this have to do with me, the butcher?"

"Damn it, my head is so itchy, it feels like my brain is growing out of it!"

"From now on, I'll be someone who's participated in big projects. I'll put 'Participated in Lady Black Tower's Simulated Universe Project' on my resume! Let's see who dares to look down on me now!"

"Holy crap, is he really a genius?"

"Then I'll write that I was watched by Nanuk, the god of destruction!"

"Well said! You're rewarded by being assigned to the center position in the Antimatter Legion!"
