Chapter 187 Onpharos 1-41 "Ah Yuan, you are the most important..."
"So, what kind of sincerity do you want?"
Lai Gushi pretended not to understand and threw the question back at him.
Aha fanned the flames from the sidelines: "Look at him, Ayuan? He's just lying to you! Want to know what Aha did?"
"Aha, of course I'm giving you everything I have! It's completely free and voluntary!"
Although He Yuan did not quite agree with Aha's point of view, he also noticed Lai Gu Shi's "perfunctory" attitude.
Of course, such a frankness and openness could hardly be considered perfunctory, but He Yuan was used to seeing people like Lai Gu Shi and was accustomed to receiving things without saying anything herself, so she was naturally very dissatisfied with Lai Gu Shi's attitude.
Where did he get his confidence that he could be easily fooled?
Is it enough that you only told He Yuan the truth that she could find out from elsewhere?
Since Lai Gushi had asked, He Yuan didn't mince words and said, "I want control of the scepter. Give me your authority, and then get out."
A few words that showed absolutely no mercy.
Lai Gushi chuckled softly, his voice tinged with mockery. "Your Excellency, do you really think... I'm the kind of person who puts emotions first?"
"Do you really think your charm is unmatched, and that I will give you all my hard work just by asking?"
"You're really spoiled."
It also has a very strong didactic tone.
Crane Kite hates people who preach.
He doesn't reject people who communicate with him on an equal footing—when he trespassed into the Lin Yuan Realm and caused a ruckus before, Dan Feng reprimanded him on the surface, but secretly taught him how to "legally and reasonably" tease the Dragon Master—or when he acted willfully, Jing Yuan disagreed, but wouldn't openly oppose him, but instead told him a better way.
With their outstanding examples preceding them, the seemingly "torturous" unrequited love and empty promises in Lai Gushi's words are utterly insignificant.
To put it simply, even in recent times, there's the fact that Screws has always been kind to him without leaving a trace, paving the way for him or giving him fun and safe inventions.
He didn't say it outright, but He Yuan wasn't stupid; she could naturally sense the other person's kindness.
Even if all else fails, there's always Aha—right after Aha finished speaking, he immediately and forcibly sent him a bunch of blessings, all of which could only be sent back by He Yuan, eliminating any possibility of Aha taking them back himself.
“Then we have no chance,” He Yuan spread her hands. “I’m sorry, Mr. Lai Gushi, my requirements for a partner are very high, and you don’t meet any of them.”
None of them fit?
How is that possible?
Lai Gushi didn't believe it: "How high can your demands be?"
He used honorifics, but his tone was condescending.
Yes, anyone who creates a computer that has been elevated to the status of a Star God would naturally place themselves in a higher position.
Lygus was only one of Zandal's nine incarnations, yet he looked down upon everything in the galaxy with a superior gaze.
He created the Star Gods, and he will destroy them, paving a new path for the wisdom of the universe.
What a magnificent achievement this is, how could mere mortals possibly comprehend it?
Crane Kite is very strong, and she has been under the watchful eyes of many star gods—but so what?
Lai Gushi spoke sweet words, but his perspective was always from above.
He Yuan didn't care about his tone.
Aha was right next to him, already itching to do something, as if he wanted to go up and teach He Yuan a lesson on her behalf.
If we're really talking about who saw the reality of this world first, Ah-ha claims to be second, and no one dares to claim to be first.
Did Zandal climb the tree of imaginary numbers that he proposed?
Ahha climbed over and even helped him confirm it.
As for Laigus, that guy who cowers in a remote star system, guarding it so closely that even Polka Kakamu is afraid of him, needless to say, compared to him, Aha feels inferior.
If it weren't for their shared love of cranes and kites, Lai Gushi would never have been able to compare himself to the Star God in his lifetime.
My own hard work...?
Lai Gushi really dared to say that.
The scepter itself can perform calculations on its own; Lycus simply distorted its direction, letting the scepter calculate as it pleased, then adjusting the constants based on the results, and occasionally checking the outcome.
His role... is probably that of a mentor who doesn't care about students?
“My requirements aren’t high,” He Yuan said, leaning back in a relaxed manner. “It’s just about looks, figure, and ability. I’ve already said that I’m a very superficial person and I like to judge people by their appearance.”
"You're so ugly, your abilities are so-so, your figure... isn't my type, and you won't even show me your heart, why should I agree to anything you say?"
"Based on your promises, which are as worthless as an empty check?"
Laigushi: "..."
Before the Iron Tomb was even born, its greatest reliance was the scepter and the "rules" of this place.
He could not force the crane to stay, so he could only keep the spark.
“You have witnessed the power of the scepter, so you know this is not an empty promise,” Lycus coaxed patiently. “When the Iron Tomb is born, you and I will become guides for the galaxy, leading the universe to a freer future!”
It is certainly an empty promise, but it is the most tempting empty promise.
I doubt anyone would refuse the feeling of guiding the direction of the galaxy.
"Freedom?" He Yuan scoffed. "Where in this world is true freedom? If the freedom you speak of is built on human blood and tears... then I cannot let you live!"
He suddenly stood up, grabbed Aha who was standing next to him, and said, "Didn't you say you would do better than him? Come on, help me beat him up."
Aha immediately grabbed the monitor next to him and smashed it.
He had surrendered all his weapons and had to make do with this.
Lai Gushi was caught off guard and beaten up.
This is outside the mythology, his territory, the space he rules, a place where you can fight him...
By the time he realized what was happening, Aha was already standing next to Heyuan, looking refreshed, and the two of them were staring at Laigushi like bullies.
"Should we hand over the permissions?" He Yuan asked bluntly.
Lai Gushi shook his head. "This is not my true form. This is just the audience area. The real core area... I will not open it to anyone."
Because he would not allow the experiment to fail.
Upon hearing this, He Yuan turned to look at Aha, "Can you find it?"
Is there a way to skip class?
The little white thing on the screen next to me looks like it's in a lot of pain; we need to find a solution as soon as possible.
Even if it's not complete, it doesn't matter, as long as it can gradually slow down the black tide, indefinitely postpone the re-creation, and give Bai E some breathing room...
Aha shook his head regretfully, "This is part of the initial neurons of the machine head, limited by His concept, Aha can't do anything about it."
"What about brute force?" He Yuan asked again. "You can't possibly be unable to do that, can you?"
The ignored Lycus spoke softly: "If everything in Onphalos is broken from the outside, the Iron Tomb will still be born, just not as perfectly."
"However, your friends are not so lucky. They will probably become a string of vanished code, leaving no trace in the galaxy."
He Yuan smacked him in anger, "Shut up! You have no right to speak here."
"Then what do you suggest?" Crane asked Aha in return. "Since you can't do anything, I'll go ask Screw Gum if there's any way to contact the Venerable Master Boshi..."
"So confident?" Aha leaned closer. "Have you seen that lump of scrap metal?"
He Yuan said nonchalantly, "I haven't met him, but judging from his and your reactions, I think He will agree."
Aha grabbed his hand in dissatisfaction, "No need for the machine head, Aha has a way to help you! Besides, the machine head doesn't care about this at all, He already knew!"
Crane Kite grasped His hand in return: "He already knew, so did you know too? So you sent me here, and you've already thought of what to do next, haven't you?"
He Yuan has confirmed it; it was Aha who brought him to Onphalos.
Using models as a medium and games as a cover, he could experience everything in Onfaros and then walk away unscathed.
Only a Star God could accomplish this, and if we're talking about which Star Gods in the world are ancient and powerful enough, the Star God of Pleasure is clearly one of them.
Why not consider Cripper?
Cripper only invited him once, and Crane felt that the chances were slim.
After all, among the Star Gods, He is the one who is more measured and looks more serious.
Aha, seemingly oblivious to everyone else, wrapped his arms around Lai Gushi, blocking Lai Gushi's dark gaze. "Of course, but these things can't be done with Aha alone."
“Ah Yuan, you are the most crucial singularity.”
Without you, the person on the screen would have to reincarnate more than 30 million times before being freed, and some of the people in the past would almost have become homeless.
Ahab wasn't spreading kindness; He simply knew clearly that if He wanted to keep someone or establish a connection with that person's world, He alone wouldn't be enough.
He needs more and closer connections, needs them to share their joys and sorrows and create heart-wrenching memories, so that a firm connection can be established, the two worlds can be integrated, and the day can truly be touched.
Crane Kite's current appearance is a one-to-one replica of reality, thanks to Aha's intervention. Many things can even be brought into reality... such as sensitive points, the power to preserve itself after fusion, and so on... all of these need to be prepared.
He Yuan understood.
He didn't break free from Aha. "Then what do I do now?"
He has already been kicked out, and his next entry will be next week. The time flow outside and inside is not the same, so he needs to seize every moment and finish as soon as possible.
Aha first led him to a screen and entered the permissions.
"Didn't the machine head give you the Genius Club number before? Enter it in, and you'll have the same permissions as him. But the experiment is nearing its end, and all we can do now is roll back some progress."
He Yuan studied the progress for a while. Aha helped him block Lai Gushi's attack and even touched his little hand with ease.
“Not only that,” He Yuan modified a few programs, “we can also exploit bugs. The program that previously recorded the fire seed hasn’t been unlocked yet, so we can upgrade and merge it again to turn the route into a ball of yarn. When the calculation reaches 100%, the destruction should be almost gone.”
"...As for who to side with, that depends on Onphalus's will."
However, this will take a long time, and since Lai Gushi has the same authority as him, it is estimated that it will not be long before it can be sorted out.
Therefore, we can only get more insurance.
Fortunately, he had studied at the workshop before. He might not be able to master all of Yingxing's skills, but he wouldn't tarnish his master's reputation if he went out.
Hmm... I think I could ask Luosigumu to call Yingxing over!
Given Xing Ge's current situation, Lai Gu Shi can't do anything to him. If all else fails, he can ask the Black Tower for an imaginary pulse weapon for self-defense. Anyway, the one who is most afraid of being exposed is Lai Gu Shi.
Aha proudly took his hand, "Our A-Yuan is really amazing!"
"By the way, what do you plan to do with this scepter after this is all over?"
He Yuan paused for a moment, then glanced at Lai Gushi.
Is it really appropriate for them to discuss the ownership of the scepter here?
Ahha smiled without saying a word.
From the moment He Yuan entered Onphalos, the fate of this place was already sealed.
He will create the most perfect ending and write the most brilliant chapter.
No one can interrupt him.
Aha believed in Crane Kite's abilities and perseverance.
He Yuan lowered her voice and said, "I want to bring the Immortal Ship back for Taibu Si to study... I'll ask Black Tower and Screw Gum if we can cooperate then."
Aha said meaningfully, "Do you have such deep feelings for the Immortal Boat?"
He Yuan was puzzled: "I grew up there, so of course I'd want to go there if there's anything good."
Besides, he and Jingyuan have the best relationship, so he'd be happy to give anything that could lighten Jingyuan's burden.
It's useless to him anyway.
"We just need to revamp the interior and stop all these strange researches. Let's just stick to the celestial ship and go on a hunting trip."
Moreover, if the Immortal Boat is given to him, Crane Kite would have a reason to encourage Ongfaros to establish diplomatic relations with the Immortal Boat, as it would be mutually beneficial for both sides!
"What happened to Yalilo?"
Ahha remembers that Crane and Kite were ruthless back then.
What can Yalilo give to the Immortal Ship?
Xianzhou is showing kindness, but it's impossible for their assistance to be completely unconditional. At least with such a friendly connection, the company won't cause trouble.
For Onphalus, the value of an imperial scepter is already sufficient.
