The ancients watched me play the Starry Sky Railway

"Then why is that rare item listed as missing?" Xing noticed a loophole.

"Logically speaking, shouldn't you indicate the whereabouts of that strange object?"

"Putting Punklod's spirit into the simulation must have been a whim decision by the Black Tower, without informing anyone else, which is why it's listed as missing." Screw-Gum offered a highly plausible hypothesis.

"Xingyi thought about it, it really does look like something the Black Tower could do."

"That's fine."

"But Leonard is still a little worried. If he doesn't see the strange object with his own eyes, he'll always think it was stolen by the Star Core Hunter."

"In that case, if you don't mind, please allow me to contribute a little to your investigation," said ScrewGum modestly.

"He really has an aristocratic demeanor."

"Yeah, he's obviously a big, hard guy, but I find him so charming."

"What a pity! Why is it an iron lump?"

The young ladies from official families who gathered together to watch the sky curtain sighed in disappointment.

Why is it just a lump of iron?

…………

"As you know, the simulation will be temporarily shut down. Until the Black Tower and I come to a definitive conclusion, it will remain sealed and will not be reopened. Therefore, now is the last chance to investigate the data on the tape."

"I will use my special privileges within the simulation to provide you with the best assistance I can. This is also to express my apology for unilaterally requesting the closure of the simulation. This is my suggestion, please consider it."

"ScrewGum said so."

"Xing turned to look at Leonard, only to find that he was still trembling."

"She had no choice but to take Leonard aside, and Leonard was finally able to speak normally."

"But he was still very scared. He even wondered if it was because he had failed to stop the invaders that Mr. Screw-Gum was so pessimistic..."

"After a while, he was already imagining the scene where the Black Tower would be furious with him because of this incident."

(Those who understand the pain of migrant workers understand it.)

"After a while of soothing him down, Leonard finally perked up. He agreed to enter the simulation to investigate. Although he couldn't go inside, he would stay in the office and help Screw-Gum monitor the data flow within the system."

"Now that the decision has been made, Xing will turn around and tell Screw-Gum about their decision."

"But at this moment, he noticed that the black tower puppet standing next to the simulated universe suddenly moved?"

Xing quickly walked over and asked, "Are you back?"

"Heita said angrily: "Look at whose name is written on the office sign? Why can't I come back? Humph, I don't want to leave, I insist on standing here. What, you can't stand seeing me come back? Ha, I don't care what you want to do, do whatever you want, just leave me alone."

(Tsundere retired the Black Tower!)

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that this girl Heita is quite cute." Yang Jian couldn't help laughing at Heita's words.

How can you be like a child?

"Oh? Cute?" Dugu Jialuo caught the key words and looked at Yang Jian with a dangerous look.

"Uh..." Yang Jian's hair stood on end, and he said quickly, "Queen, I mean, the Black Pagoda is as cute as a child! Just like our daughter, don't you think?"

"You'd better think so." Dugu Jialuo withdrew her gaze, and finally made Yang Jian breathe a sigh of relief.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead... escaped.

Fortunately, I didn’t show it when I saw Kafka, Jingliu, Cocolia, Xier, Tingyun, Yukong... those beautiful women.

You must remember that if you think something looks good, you should keep it in your heart and never say it out loud!

"Xing smiled and said, "Then I'll go in first."

"Come on, come on. Remember to test the simulated universe." Heita waved his hand and told her to hurry up."

"Xing turned back to find ScrewGum and prepared to enter the simulation."

"I will use an unusual method to send you into the simulated universe, so your physical sensations may differ from your usual experience. This will help us quickly locate the cartridge within the vast and complex data of the simulated universe. Please prepare for a deep dive into your consciousness..."

"Screw Gum gave a warning and immediately activated the simulated universe."

"A ripple hit, and the huge feeling of weightlessness made Xing lose control of his limbs."

"A moment later, Xing suddenly woke up amidst rippling characters and codes—she had entered the simulated universe."

"And before her was the shadow of a silver wolf!"

"Goodness! The Silver Wolf has been waiting in the simulated universe for a long time!" Huo Qubing exclaimed in amazement. "I didn't expect that the two geniuses, Black Tower and Screw Gumu, hadn't even noticed the Silver Wolf."

Just think about it, if during the war between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu, he had sent a detachment of troops directly into the Xiongnu, and no one in the Xiongnu would have noticed anything was wrong.

What a terrifying situation this must have been for the Huns!

This is pretty much what Silver Wolf is doing now.

"Star core hunters are indeed extraordinary." Liu Che was also amazed.

We talked about how powerful the genius is before. Now seeing Silver Wolf enter the simulated universe of the Black Tower as if no one is there, it highlights how powerful Silver Wolf is.

And it happened right under the noses of two geniuses!

"Why do I feel something is wrong?" Wei Qing frowned, realizing that things were not simple.

Although he didn't know why, his instincts from years of fighting told him that something was very wrong...

…………

"Ms. Xing, are you okay?"

"The sound of Screw Gum reached Xing's ears."

"Xing looked at the silver wolf phantom in front of him and didn't know whether to say it was good or bad."

"So, she was first shocked by something else: 'There's a sound?'"

"You know, when I was helping Black Tower test the simulated universe, there was never any sound! Black Tower always communicated with her using text."

"That's the communication module operating normally—Black Tower often says it's a flashy feature, and she usually turns it off to increase computing power," ScrewGum explained. "But I believe that sound can carry more emotional fluctuations than words."

"Emmmm, after hearing this... why do I feel that Luosi Gumu, a lump of iron, has more emotions than Heita, a living person?" Xu Chu stared with his big eyes and scratched his head.

Everyone around nodded in agreement.

Indeed, compared to ScrewGum, Black Tower, who is too lazy to even talk to Xing unless necessary, seems even more indifferent... Or perhaps, Black Tower prefers to immerse himself in his own research world.

"Ah..." Cao Cao sighed, "Looking at Heita's personality, I'm afraid she can't be someone's wife."

Cocolia is still better. Although she is an adopted child, she is also a real wife!

Too bad, it's already cold...
