The ancients watched me play the Starry Sky Railway

"The simulated universe requires errors—that's what you said. The current situation is clearly a perfect match, so why are you dissatisfied?" Black Tower was unhappy.

"ScrewGum: "I appreciate the flow of knowledge, but I don't agree that the simulated universe will always be just a piece of paper on the to-do list. Black Tower, think about it, how many surprises has this project given you? Think again, how many disappointments has it brought you?"

"The simulated universe never lets me down. It's you, Screw, who lets me down. Do you think you're that great? You're just like, a... a guy from the Idiot Club." Heita racked his brains, trying to find some curse words from his mind."

"But unfortunately, her brain is already filled with all kinds of knowledge, and there is no room for meaningless language like 'swearing'."

"Ah..." ScrewGum sighed, "Black Tower, I have no intention of questioning you, nor will I deny your efforts in simulating the universe. I simply hope to give knowledge and inspiration more room to grow freely."

"That's enough! If you don't want to do this, just quit and go talk to the other two people... Oh, take your skills with you too, I don't want them."

"I could go to Adrian Taylor, or the red-nosed old man from Epseron, or even the Society of the Loremasters—at least they wouldn't give up halfway."

"Heita no longer wanted to argue and turned and left."

When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped. "Screwgum, we've known each other for so long, and this is the first time... I feel like you're just a piece of cold iron."

"What are you talking about? Isn't this screw grum just a big piece of iron?" Zhu Gaoxu was speechless.

A being like Black Tower, who could be glanced at by the Intellectual Star God and possessed extraordinary wisdom, would actually spout such nonsense...

"You idiot!" Zhu Di glared at his second son. "That Snail-Gum may be made of iron, but it has its own consciousness and intelligence. Aside from its flesh and blood, is it any different from a human? Black Tower's words are practically equivalent to calling Snail-Gum a non-human."

Especially since these two people have known each other for many years and should still be friends, hearing these words from a good friend... that is really hurtful!

But after he explained, seeing that Zhu Gaoxu still looked unconvinced, Zhu Di became furious.

This stupid son is like me in terms of bravery, but in terms of intelligence...how can he be a fool!

"After watching this, Xing and Leonard had different expressions. Xing looked like he had witnessed a great show and made a lot of money, while Leonard was trembling, afraid that he would be silenced."

"I'm sorry, ma'am, sir, for making you laugh," ScrewGum said apologetically to the two.

Leonard quickly waved his hands, indicating that he hadn't seen anything.

"She actually had that kind of expression?" Xing was curious. In her memory, Black Tower never looked like that."

"This matter was caused by me. I was the one who unilaterally proposed to Black Tower to terminate the academic cooperation."

"Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against her or this project. The simulated universe is a magnificent experiment, and Black Tower is an absolute genius."

“But we have some disagreements on the long-term direction of research, and disagreements often lead to bias, which hinders the formation of knowledge.”

"So, should I end this collaboration that has betrayed our original intention? Emotionally, I want to trust Black Tower. But objectively, I must act immediately."

"ScrewGum slowly explained his position."

"Bias will hinder the formation of knowledge... I can't believe that a robot made of steel can say such philosophical words." Xunzi was amazed.

A being made of iron not only has life, but also has its own thoughts and even such wisdom.

This sky curtain really refreshed his cognition from beginning to end.

"Write this sentence down on the bamboo slips. This is the philosophy of a great sage who was once glanced at by the Star God of Wisdom."

He picked up the carving knife and prepared to carve the words.

…………

"The emotions of organic life are like the tides. I misjudged the direction of the moon. Let Heita be alone for a while to release his emotional fluctuations. This will also be beneficial to our subsequent discussions."

"As for the simulated universe... if that's what you're here for, perhaps I can provide some explanations."

"Even if ScrewGum used his little toes to think, he would know that Xing and Leonard came here for business, not just to stroll along."

"Xing then recounted what had happened."

"'Punklod Spirit?'" ScrewGum quickly searched his database for the relevant information. "That's no ordinary artifact, my friend. It's a love letter from a sea ranger to this universe... Ms. Star, how much do you know about Punklod?"

"No one understands Punk Lord better than me." Xing played the accordion.

“She actually doesn’t understand anything.”

"Cough cough..." Ying Zheng was drinking water and choked when he heard these words.

You don’t understand anything and yet you say that!

"Xing, this kid, is getting better and better at making up stories..."

He shook his head helplessly, but for some reason, he felt that the posture of playing the accordion... seemed quite interesting.

He tried to pull it, and said to himself: No one understands Daqin better than me!

Hey, that's quite exciting.

Fusu, who was standing by, noticed his old father's actions and immediately turned his head away, pretending not to see it.

I don’t dare to ask.

"Hahahaha, communicating with you is such an interesting and enjoyable experience." ScrewGum chuckled.

"It is a planet constructed of data and characters. In Punklod, the boundary between reality and illusion is as blurred as its day and night."

“And the Ether Cassette is a chip that Punklord hackers use to edit reality, recording how they perceive and rewrite the world.”

"The Ether Cassette is a record of the hacker's life, proof of his existence. And this one, stored in the space station, belongs to one of those legends."

"By chance, he became a sea ranger. Over a long period of time, he traversed the Silver Sea, traveled far and wide, and witnessed many extraordinary people and events."

"It contains details that neither the company nor the Evangelist Society has ever recorded. Therefore, it has become part of the vast algorithm used to simulate the universe. So don't worry, my friend, this tape has never left the station."

"He explained a lot, but Xing didn't quite understand. But she did understand one thing—it turns out this strange object is part of the simulated universe!"
