Transform into Ruan Mei and start from the battlefield of national destiny

Chapter 1 Sino Space Station

The universe is vast and filled with countless magical lives, but not every galaxy has life. In other words, galaxies with life are a very small minority in this universe.

No Man's Land, Ruan Mei is used to calling the planet she is on now, a planet covered with ice and snow all day long, with no signs of life.

Not only this planet, but also the galaxy where this planet is located and the vast area nearby, have no life. This is a planet located in the corner of the Milky Way, and even traveling merchants have never set foot here.

Therefore, this is the most ideal experimental site.

Ruan Mei can conduct experiments with peace of mind without worrying about the impact of these experiments on others, which makes Ruan Mei feel a little troubled.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not about “influencing others” itself, but the chain reaction that occurs after the impact.

In this galaxy, there is no shortage of nosy people, such as the patrolling rangers who follow the hunting star Shenlan to seek justice throughout the universe.

These true knights were not afraid of death. They even killed a Lord of Destruction with a lineup without any orders. Although the price was so high that the Sea Patrol Rangers suffered heavy losses and were severely damaged, they did not recover for many Amber Ages.

Suddenly, opera music came from the machine on the desk. Ruan Mei stopped what she was doing because it meant it was time to take a break.

The research on the false god of order is by no means something that can be accomplished overnight. Ruan Mei has enough time, so there is no need to rush and she just needs to be patient.

After making a cup of tea and arranging a stack of cakes, Ruan Mei sat down on a stone bench.

A soft touch came from beside my feet. It was the only living thing in the entire laboratory besides Ruan Mei, a cat.

Friends of Ram.

Not only does its appearance have elements of Ruan Mei, but its personality is also similar to Ruan Mei's, and it can endure loneliness.

"Would you like to eat something?" Ruan Mei smiled, picked up a cake, bent down and handed it to Maomaocao's mouth.

Maomao Cake made a cute sound, first rubbed the back of Ruan Mei's hand, and then put the cake into its mouth in one bite.

"The progress of the experiment is as expected." Ruan Mei in the mirror appeared on the screen in the laboratory.

"Yeah." Ruan Mei nodded.

"But you need to see this," she continued, and with a wave of her hand, a line of text appeared at the bottom of the screen.

That's an email.

"Dear colleague, I admire your feat of destroying a demonic star and creating a fairy ship. After seeing your magnificent creation, I am also sincerely delighted."

"I think it might be fate that when my research encountered obstacles, a genius like you, who has made outstanding contributions in the field of life sciences, was born into the world."

"Therefore, I sincerely invite you to join me in my research to explore the first cause of life."

"Looking forward to your reply."

"Ling, on behalf of your friend, Miss Xilian, a guest I met by chance, I would like to send you my greetings."

"Hi, good friend, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect it to be this long. This is my first time writing to you, hoping to get your help. However, you will surely forgive my little willfulness, right?"

Without a signature, even the IP address cannot be found.

Ruan Mei's expression seemed calm, she already knew where the letter came from.

The first cause of life.

A fellow member of the Genius Club.

Plus Xilian...

"Omphalos..." Ruan Mei whispered the place name.

In my memory, this is where the main storyline goes, and it is also there that the protagonist of the game meets Xi Lian.

Ruan Mei was not surprised by the invitation from Lygus—let's call him Lygus for now. In the development process of that world, there was indeed a transition from inorganic to organic.

Should I accept this invitation?

This is the problem that Ruan Mei is facing now. In fact, it is not a big problem. Since Xi Lian said so, why would Ruan Mei refuse?

But my interest in research has been interrupted.

After writing a reply letter, Ruan Mei decided to put the experiment aside for the time being.

She planned to go to a place where she felt something was attracting her.

That was the attraction Ruan Mei felt after the barrier of the cocoon was broken.

However, Ruan Mei had not been there for many years because there was no need. But now that Lai Gushi's letter had stopped her research, she had some free time.

……

Here is a huge space station floating on a blue planet.

Although it was obvious that the builders had put a lot of effort into it, not only was the structure tight, but even unnecessary decorations were carved with patterns, but even in this space that clearly took so much effort, Ruan Mei did not feel too much breath of life in it.

It looks like it has not been officially put into use. Only the lights indicate that there is still life in the space station.

"So this is the place..." Ruan Mei knew this space station.

Black Tower Space Station.

In the game, the first stop for players is the Novice Village.

Although the Black Tower Space Station project originated from the Black Tower, in reality, both the formal construction labor and financial investment came from the Interstellar Peace Company.

The empty space station in front of them was so luxurious because the Interstellar Peace Company wanted to curry favor with the Black Tower. After all, the latter was a famous Intellectual Envoy and one of the very few geniuses willing to cooperate with the Interstellar Peace Company - most geniuses didn't care about mortals at all.

So, why is there something attractive in this space station?

Ruan Mei fell into deep thought. Suddenly, a line from Heita to Ruan Mei in the game flashed through her mind: "What is there here that you're curious about? It can't be me, right?"

Putting the joke aside from her thoughts, Ruan Mei stood up and walked out of the spacecraft as the spacecraft officially docked with the space station.

Step onto the platform.

This is where the Starry Sky Train stops in the game, but compared to the platform in the game, the real platform is undoubtedly surprisingly large, but because of this, it also appears even emptier.

There was no one around and it was dead silent.

This kind of atmosphere is quite suitable for shooting a horror movie in this space station.

Ruan Mei continued walking forward, following her intuition, and came to a door that looked very high-tech.

Then, a very pleasant voice sounded behind Ruan Mei.

"Hey, who are you? Why are you here? This is not a place for you to hang out." Although it sounded nice, the tone seemed a bit arrogant, but it was precisely this arrogance that implied a kind of cuteness.

Ruan Mei turned around and looked at the person standing behind her and talking to her.

Chapter 2 Black Tower

Human, female, young, beautiful, cute.

Using these words to describe the woman in front of me is perfect and not inappropriate at all.

Ruan Mei knew her.

Member No. 83 of the Genius Club, the Messenger of Intellect, has a terrible personality, is extremely willful, and extremely narcissistic. She only does things that interest her, and doesn't care about things that don't interest her, nor does she care about other people's thoughts and feelings. Ordinary righteousness and morality have no binding force on her at all.

Just like in the game, if the protagonist chooses to stay in the space station, the Black Tower will finish its research on the protagonist and then throw the protagonist aside. It is still the stationmaster who is responsible for cleaning up the messenger. And as the high-ranking Intellectual Envoy, when inviting the protagonist to participate in the research through online chat, he will also reply with words like "please" to the protagonist's witty words.

It sounds like her personality is very similar to Ruan Mei's, but in fact, this is just a common problem for most geniuses. In essence, Ruan Mei and Heita's personalities are very different.

Although Heita doesn't care about other people's feelings, she is at least a "reasonable" person - she still has human moral values, and in a sense, although Heita has a bad temper, she is a good person.

As for Ruan Mei, she has no concept of "moral values". Although on the surface she pays more attention to moral values ​​than Heita, in fact, she just chooses to follow the "human consensus" in order to avoid trouble.

Just like some people don’t kill because they think killing is wrong, while some people don’t kill because others think killing is wrong.

Black Tower is the former, and Ruan Mei is the latter.

Beneath the mask of gentleness, aloofness, and easy-goingness, and the rules of conduct, lies a true self that is more selfish and willful.

In the game, Ruan Mei and Heita are not only colleagues in the Genius Club, but also participants in the same project. They can be said to be old acquaintances.

"Black Tower." Ruan Mei looked at the current Black Tower and confirmed that the girl who appeared in front of her was still a human being, not a puppet in the game.

"You know me? No wonder. After all, I'm the owner of this place and a renowned genius," Heita boasted, his hands folded, as if it was a given. "But don't change the subject. You haven't told me why you came here yet."

"I'm here to look for something." Ruan Mei replied calmly.

"Looking for something? Found my territory?" Heita raised his eyebrows, his tone slightly unfriendly.

"I have no ill will towards you, it's just that something attracts me here." Ruan Mei shook her head. She didn't want to conflict with the Black Tower because it would be very troublesome to deal with the aftermath.

"You don't know what that is, either? I'm suddenly interested in what you're talking about." Heita looked at Ruan Mei and folded his hands. "You're lucky. I happen to be free today, so I'll accompany you to see what it is that attracts you."

Heita guessed that it might be because of the strange object.

After all, there are many strange objects stored in the Black Tower Space Station. The Black Tower has conducted experiments on some of the strange objects and knows their uses, but for some of the strange objects, she has not had time to study them.

With this thought in mind, Heita said, "Tell me, where is that thing?"

Was it Area 1 of the containment chamber? I remember there was a broken flaming sword there. Or was it Area 2? I recently acquired a scoring gun. Could this guy be the owner of that gun? Or even, between the unknown and the unknown? That was my private collection room.

Heita was thinking about it, but she didn't expect that Ruan Mei would give an answer that she had never considered.

"It's just inside the door." Ruan Mei turned around and looked at the door in front of her.

"..." Heita was silent for a moment, then chuckled, "I say, you're not here to make fun of me, are you?"

"Do you know what's behind this door?" Heita said, taking a step forward, passing Ruan Mei and arriving at the main door. "This is my office."

"Ding - authentication completed, welcome, Ms. Black Tower." The combination lock next to the door made a mechanical sound, and the door slowly opened, revealing an empty office inside.

Ruan Mei took a glance.

The difference between this office and the one in the game was enormous, perhaps because the Black Tower Space Station had not yet been fully put into use. There was a lonely table in the middle of the room with a pile of documents on it. Apart from that, there was nothing else. As for the login entrance for the project called "Simulated Universe", there was no trace of it.

Ruan Mei walked into the office. She walked past Heita as if no one was around and came to the desk.

Things that attract you are right here on your desk.

Ruan Mei saw that thing at a glance.

Should I say, as expected?

The invitation letter from the Genius Club bears the logo of the Genius Club and the aura of Boshizun.

Heita watched Ruan Mei's actions leisurely, as if she was watching for fun. To be precise, she really wanted to know, was Ruan Mei's purpose of coming here to steal her research results?

If this is true, then it would be courting death. No one really thinks they can steal things from under the nose of the envoy.

However, seeing Ruan Mei walk past him without hesitation, Heita felt a little more approval of this person in his heart.

After all, so many people would bow down to him when they saw him, especially those guys in the company, who were afraid of offending him.

However, after Ruan Mei stopped in front of the desk, Heita's brows gradually furrowed.

She thought of a possibility, a possibility that she subconsciously ignored.

She knew that on her desk, besides a lot of her own research materials, there was another thing, which was an invitation from the Genius Club, and the recipient was the mysterious Seat 81.

Black Tower did not think of this possibility at first, because after the 81st Seat appeared, not only was the Interstellar Peace Company working hard to find him, but even the neighboring Immortal Boat Alliance was also searching the entire universe for this genius. However, so much time has passed, and there is no news at all.

Under Heita's complicated gaze, Ruan Mei picked up the invitation letter from the Genius Club.

"Ha... Is this what they mean by "after searching high and low for something, you still can't find it, but then you get it without any effort?" Heita walked towards Ruan Mei.

"Ruan Mei, the 81st seat in the Genius Club, a genius recognized by Bo Shi Zun." The violet pupils looked at Ruan Mei seriously this time, as if he wanted to see something different in her, to see the truth about the Star God.

What is it about you that makes you so different that even Boshizun has changed a little for you? I'm very curious, very curious.

Curiosity is the starting point of Black Tower's pursuit of knowledge. To know everything that is unknowable is her pursuit. And this time, this desire for knowledge falls on the uninvited genius colleague.

Little did they know that curiosity was the beginning of their downfall.

Chapter 3 Communication of Geniuses

"Hmm?" Ruan Mei turned around with a look of confusion.

"Let's get to know each other again," Heita said, his hands on his hips in front of Ruan Mei. "My name is Heita, Genius Club #83. Although this title is only the most insignificant of all my achievements, it is at least appropriate for communicating with you at this moment."

Ruan Mei nodded.
