Xingtetsu: You are not included in Elio's script!

Estelle was stunned. She had never thought that a bartender's ability could be applied to such cutting-edge energy experiments.

The following experiments became more complicated and dangerous.

The Black Tower kept ordering attempts at various extreme energy combinations and switching sequences, and the seeds were sometimes stable and sometimes on the verge of losing control.

Lin Yu was concentrating on controlling the various powers of destiny, and sweat oozed from his forehead.

Ruan Mei kept a close eye on all the data and made adjustment suggestions from time to time.

Yu Qingtu always intervenes in her own unique way at critical moments, pulling the experiments back from the brink of collapse time and time again.

The atmosphere between Heita and Yu Qingtu was still tense. Every time Yu Qingtu successfully intervened, Heita's face became colder, but she could not deny the effectiveness of the other party's methods.

This is a competition based on different concepts and paths, silent but fierce.

Just when a weak energy was injected in an attempt to simulate the "end" of fate, something strange happened!

The seed seemed to have an unprecedentedly violent reaction to this extremely special energy, one that involved the concepts of time and destiny! It suddenly erupted with an intense gray-white light, the entire container humming violently, and even tiny cracks appeared on its surface! An indescribable aura of annihilation, as if it could devour all meaning of existence, permeated the air!

"Energy overload! Structural integrity is about to collapse! The suppression field cannot be completely restrained!" For the first time, Black Tower's voice was obviously urgent.

"Forcefully interrupt energy injection! Activate the highest level isolation protocol!" Ruan Mei said immediately.

"No! The inertia of the energy circuit is too great. Forcibly interrupting it may cause a more violent explosion!" Lin Yu felt the terrible suction force inside the seed that was madly absorbing and distorting the "end" energy he simulated, and his face was solemn.

The aura of extinction even began to affect reality. The light in the laboratory became dim, and the instrument screens flickered, as if everything was coming to an end.

"Let me do it." Yu Qingtu's expression became extremely serious for the first time.

She clasped her hands together, and a soft yet tenacious pink light emanated from her fingertips. The light was not strong, but it seemed to contain some kind of anchoring power of "existence", which was completely different from the lazy and charming feeling she usually gave people.

She pushed the light toward the seed, trying to fight against the extinction.

But the seeds resisted fiercely, and the grayish-white light continued to erode the pink light.

At this critical moment, Estelle didn't know where she got the courage from. She rushed to the main console, operated it quickly with her hands, and shouted loudly.

"Ms. Black Tower! Activate the energy in all non-essential areas of the space station, temporarily construct a 'protection' barrier, and superimpose a stabilization field! Use external energy fields to forcibly stabilize its internal structure!"

Heita looked at Ester and finished the calculation in almost a ten-thousandth of a second. "The plan is feasible!"

Estelle received the authorization and pressed the execute button without hesitation.

In an instant, the entire space station shook slightly, and the lights in all non-core areas dimmed instantly. Huge amounts of energy were temporarily drawn away and gathered in the laboratory through a complex energy network. Several layers of thick amber barriers were instantly constructed around the seed container, and at the same time, a harmonious and balanced force field permeated it!

With Yu Qingtu's "emotional anchoring" inside and the "protection" and "balance" power that Esther had quickly mobilized outside, the seed's violence was finally gradually suppressed, the gray-white light slowly retracted, and the cracks no longer expanded.

Crisis resolved.

The laboratory was completely silent, with only the hum of residual energy and the slightly rapid breathing of everyone.

Heita looked at Estella deeply, with surprise, scrutiny, and perhaps a very faint hint of... recognition?

"Well done, Ester." Her tone returned to calm.

Asta's legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground, but was supported by Lin Yu beside her.

Her heart was still beating wildly, but her face lit up because of Heita's rare affirmation.

Yu Qingtu put away the light, exhaled lightly, and the round fan appeared again, waving slowly, as if the serious person just now was not her.

"Oh my goodness~ That was really thrilling~ Looks like this 'security consultant' salary isn't going to be easy to come by today~"

Ruan Mei has already begun examining the subsequent data from the seeds. "The seed structure is partially damaged, but the core is intact. We've successfully recorded an extreme reaction pattern to 'terminal' energy. The data is valuable, and the experiment's purpose has been partially achieved."

Heita snorted lightly, ignoring Yu Qingtu's teasing, and said to Ruan Mei, "Subsequent data analysis will take time. The simulated universe needs at least 12 hours for self-inspection and energy purification. You can stay in the space station for the time being."

This means that today's experiment has come to an end.

The atmosphere was tense as everyone left the laboratory.

Heita was still aloof, Ruan Mei was still indifferent, Yu Qingtu was still smiling, and Lin Yu took care of the somewhat exhausted Estella and the still excited Lin Ruan.

But there is no doubt that after this thrilling experiment, something has quietly changed.

Ester's emergency response, Yu Qingtu's difficult-to-define ability, and the relationship between Heita and Yu Qingtu, which is both competitive and forced to cooperate, have all planted more suspense for the future.

...

The high-intensity composite energy test in the seventh laboratory of the simulated universe has come to a temporary end. The "Star Seed" that almost caused a major accident has been placed back in the highest level of stasis field. The colorful glimmer flowing inside it indicates potential and risks that have not yet been fully explored.

After submitting the final data report to the Black Tower, Ester almost stepped aside in a hurry, trying to reduce her presence. The blush on her cheeks had not yet completely faded.

However, at this moment, everyone's attention was involuntarily attracted by the new figure that appeared at the entrance of the laboratory.

The person who came was not the familiar, slightly mechanical puppet from the past, but Heita himself.

She stood quietly at the intersection of light and shadow on the porch. Her figure did not appear particularly tall because she was not a doll, but she had an indescribable, condensed and powerful presence.

She was still wearing her iconic dress that blended Gothic Lolita with mysticism. The dark purple and gray-black tones made her look calm and intelligent. The "mysterious hands" embroidered patterns on the dress seemed to whisper silently under the light of the laboratory.

She did not hold any instruments in her hands, but simply folded them casually in front of her, her fingertips white.

The most different thing is her eyes, which belong to a true top genius, as deep as the sea of ​​stars, and seem to be able to see through the essence of all things.

With her unique curiosity, scrutiny and a subtle hint of pure pleasure in seeing something interesting.

Her eyes first swept over the stable "seed", nodded slightly, then fell on Lin Yu, who looked a little tired but excited, and Ruan Mei who was standing quietly beside her, and finally fixed on Yu Qingtu, who was waving a round fan and looking at her with a smile.
