They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 170 Ruan Mei, who directly raided the house

Although Danlei's soul creation skill is magical, he is not actually satisfied with its practicality.

Because the souls you create yourself don't obey your commands at all.

Let's talk about that lab rat without using any additional contractual means.

Danlei told it to take two steps east, and it focused on eating corn. Danlei told it to squeak twice, and it focused on eating corn. Danlei took the corn away and gave it a small stick to chew on, and it kicked the stick away and squeaked for corn from Yunli, who was holding the corn.

This plunged Danlei into deep self-doubt. He had put in so much effort only to create a glutton?

The subsequent android experiments were quite satisfactory. Danlei bought a flying motorcycle produced by Interstellar Peace Company and gave it a soul.

After the motorcycle came to life, Danlei couldn't forcibly control it, but it was much more obedient than the little white mouse.

According to Modi (the name Danlei gave it), its intelligent system already has voice recognition software, making it much smarter than a lab rat.

However, this guy likes to race cars and often races alone on Zhu Ming's open road at night, which resulted in Dan Lei waking up to find himself with more than a dozen tickets from Zhu Ming's shipping company.

So, believing that he should ask a few geniuses to help him explore the possibilities, and also wanting to show off a bit, Dan Lei used his phone to connect directly to the private network provided by Black Tower, created a group, and then pulled Black Tower, Ruan Mei, and Luo Sigumu into it.

How many possibilities are there for the emergence of mechanical life?

After the group was created, Danlei immediately uploaded a photo of himself with a motorcycle taxi driver, and then said...
Dan Lei: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have created a new mechanical life form called [Motorcycle Taxi]. Let me introduce it to you."

Screw Gum "?"

Black Tower?

Ruan Mei: "Dan Lei, why do you have horns?"

Black Tower: "Yeah, how come you suddenly grew horns? I remember that only those who learned some kind of wonderful technique and became Dragon Lords in the Ming Clan could grow horns, right? Did you go to the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship and steal some wonderful technique from there?"

Dan Lei: "→_→, Hei Ta, if you keep doing this, I'll sue you for defamation. When have I ever stolen someone else's martial arts techniques?"

As Dan Lei typed these words, he added in his mind, "I obtained all my cultivation techniques by robbing or trading; I have never stolen them."

"Stop talking nonsense. You said you created a new mechanical life form, what do you mean? I remember this vehicle is a product of the Interstellar Peace Corporation."

"This is the KTM 3500 EXC-F hoverbike produced by KTM Machinery, a subsidiary of Star Peace Corporation."

Logic: This is a high-quality hovermobile.

Danlei: "That's right, it was originally a hover motorcycle, but I gave it a soul."

Black Tower: "You've written a new set of intelligent logic?"

No, with your abilities, you can't write any useful logical code.

There must be another reason why you came all this way to show off to us.

Dan Lei said, "I said I created a new mechanical life form, so why can't I be the one who turned this motorcycle into an intelligent machine? I didn't use awakening code or logic to copy it."

Screw Gum "?"

Nguyen Mai “?”

Black Tower?

Seeing that the three geniuses had asked three question marks in a row, clearly disbelieving, Dan Lei quickly said...

Dan Lei: "Screw Gumu, you are the representative of intelligent machines. I'll have the motorcycle taxi driver talk to you. You can talk to it yourself and then determine whether it is an intelligent machine."

"Okay, but Danlei, I might need you to open the data connection channel next."

Communication between intelligent machines is more precise using data.

Dan Lei naturally agreed with what Luo Sigu said.

Since there is no Screw Gum to testify, unless he goes to Black Tower and Nguyen Mai to perform for them, it will be quite troublesome for him to convince them that he has the power to give souls to inorganic matter, given their meticulousness.

So after Danlei replied "No problem" in the group, he made a video call, then pointed his phone at the motorcycle taxi's data port so that Luosigumu could connect and communicate with the motorcycle taxi's data.

Five minutes later, the data communication ended, and Luosigumu immediately used the group chat to prove Danlei's innocence.

"I've communicated with the motorcycle taxi driver. It is indeed an intelligent machine, and it was awakened by Dan Lei. It was awakened to intelligence suddenly without any code or program."

No, according to Danlei, it is the bestowal of a soul.

I must say, this result caused all the parts of my body to rub and heat up at high speed.

Logic: I'm very excited.

"It is indeed surprising that modern intelligent machines only need sufficiently powerful hardware and a piece of code to awaken from ordinary machines." Nguyen Mai said.

But that code is of utmost importance.

"Yes, Danlei's discovery is so amazing. How inorganic life was originally born has always been a mystery."

The Society for the Study of the Wisdom once speculated that the intelligence of inorganic life originated from a cluster of electrons that were born by chance.

This is interesting, but now, Danlei seems to have come up with a new solution.

Just like the group's name suggests, how many possibilities are there for the birth of mechanical life? Sparks of thought are colliding, and I am now very interested in this topic.

Danlei, please provide the possibility of your discovery.

Dan Lei said, "It is power. I obtained a small part of the soul creation power of the [Suihuang] in Zhu Ming. As a member of the Chiming clan, the immortal creation power hidden in my genes has also awakened to some extent."

Here, Dan Lei briefly recounted what happened five days ago, but concealed his serious injuries, only saying lightly that he had entered the [Suihuang] origin by using the Suiyang card bug, thereby obtaining a portion of its energy.

After explaining, Danlei gave a summary.

Dan Lei: "In short, after the two powers were combined, I gained the ability to give soulless targets a soul."

This target can be organic or inorganic.

Although Nguyen Mai could do the same or even more extraordinary things, such as revitalizing a planet, all I need to contribute is power.

"Danlei, do you mean that you don't need to understand Ruan Mei's theory of life creation, which she developed after years of research, to directly apply it?"

Dan Lei said, "I can only give a soul; I cannot create a new type of life from scratch that did not exist before, like Ruan Mei did."

Moreover, my power is limited; I cannot currently bestow a soul upon a planet.

Furthermore, if you give me a piece of ordinary meat and ask me to imbue it with a soul, the very next second after the soul is imbued, the body will die because it can no longer sustain the soul.

Dan Lei's statement that his abilities are not as comprehensive as Ruan Mei's research is not an act of modesty.

Rather, it's because Ruan Mei is a genius in the field of creation; based on what Dan Lei knows, she is indeed that strong.

Creating a soul?
Nguyen Mai can tell you directly that the recipe for the soul is spirituality, practice, and astral vibration.

When these three things are mixed in a 1:1:1 ratio, they form the foundation of wisdom.

You asked what spirituality is, what astral vibration is, and how to visualize the practice of this.
Dan Lei said that if he could understand all of that, then he would be a genius.

In any case, through science, Nguyen Mai can fine-tune the formula to create all sorts of souls, which are more omnipotent than her own powers.

If we must point out where Dan Lei's scientific abilities surpass those of Nguyen May, then...

It's estimated that it's about the same speed. Ruan Mei needs to think about what the physical body should look like before creating a soul, and it also requires a certain amount of time for the proportions to be matched. Dan Lei only needs to consume enough power to instantly bestow the soul.

However, Nguyen Mai still affirmed Dan Lei's power. Nguyen Mai said, "Even so, Dan Lei, your power still points directly to the essence of life. I need to study it carefully after coming to me."

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei felt a chill run down his spine; he knew he couldn't leave Zhu Ming's Immortal Boat now.

Because in this back and forth, the weapons won't be lost, but one will be late for the battle of Luofu Huanlong.

So Danlei could only find a reason to refuse in the group chat.

Dan Lei: "Um... Ruan Mei, I'll come back in about half a year. I'll wait for my custom-made weapon in Zhu Ming."

After all, I have something rather troublesome about me.

Nguyen Mai: "???"

Here, Heita instantly understood Danlei's meaning: [Aha]'s tears were a secret known only to herself and Danlei, and Heita had not told anyone else.

The most important reason Danlei went to Zhuming this time was to get a prop that could safely carry it, otherwise he wouldn't feel at ease leaving this thing anywhere.

Therefore, Black Tower spoke up for Dan Lei.

"The trouble Dan Lei is my problem; he really can't just walk away." Black Tower said.

Nguyen Mai: "Okay, I'll go over there."

"Screw Gumu: That's fine too. Zhu Ming Xianzhou and Screw Star are the three great technological holy lands in the universe. I think it's very suitable for a visit and exchange."

Dan Lei was even more alarmed when he saw that Ruan Mei and Luo Sigu were coming to Zhu Mingxian Boat. He had to stop them immediately.

Dan Lei: "No, don't come any closer."

I asked General Huaiyan to help me forge weapons and equipment.

Once you arrive, he will have to come out of the pass to receive you, which means my weapons and equipment will have to be delayed.

Six months, just six months, please be patient.

If you're in such a hurry to study this, why don't you each send me a sample? I'll give it a soul and return it to you, then you can study the samples first.

Screw Gum, being the most human-like intelligent machine, saw that Dan Lei was in a real predicament and didn't force him.

"No problem, I'll send you a few cuckoo clocks with smart modules."

Seeing that Luo Sigu Mu was backing down, Ruan Mei thought about it and realized that sending things was still inconvenient.

However, this would also negatively impact Dan Lei's plans, so Ruan Mei decided to launch a surprise attack.

Anyway, I have the Immortal Boat Alliance Pass, so once I get to the Zhu Ming Immortal Boat, I'll have plenty of ways to sneak in as an ordinary tourist.

So Ruan Mei stopped replying in the group and went offline.

When Dan Lei saw that Ruan Mei had suddenly gone offline, he didn't even want to complain about how Luo Si Gu Mu was going to send him a cuckoo clock.

After all, reality is not a simulated universe, and the cuckoo clock series doesn't have so many outrageous side effects.

Dan Lei immediately switched to the backend and opened Ruan Mei's private chat, quickly explaining that he didn't not want to see her.

Fortunately, Ruan Mei hadn't actually gone offline. Seeing how nervous Dan Lei was, she smiled and reassured him before finally putting down her phone.

Dan Lei was relieved to learn that Ruan Mei had logged off simply because she felt there was nothing else to do.

Because if it were any other girl, she would definitely not mean what she said, and if the guy believed her, the relationship would probably be half over.

But women like Heita and Nguyen Mai are exceptions.

Black Tower would definitely vent her anger on the spot; she wouldn't hold back.

Ruan Mei simply won't explain herself; she won't reply to any messages until her anger subsides.

But as long as she replies and explains her reasons, it proves that she wasn't angry at all.

However, two days later, the doorbell of Danlei's temporary home rang.

Upon opening the door, Dan Lei nearly jumped out of his skin in fright. He grabbed the person in front of him and pulled them closer to the door. After glancing around furtively like a thief, he closed the door and asked...
"Ruan Mei, what brings you here? Did you sneak in?"

To this question, Nguyen Mai shook her head and said frankly...

"No, I have a pass for the Immortal Ship Alliance, which allows me to travel between different Immortal Ships."

I just used a little trick to make Tianbosi here mistakenly think I was just an ordinary tourist.

After all, the name Ruan Mei isn't patented in the universe.

While speaking, Ruan Mei clearly became interested in Dan Lei's dragon horns, directly touching them to feel their texture and power, and the more she touched them, the happier she became.

Dan Lei naturally wouldn't stop Ruan Mei's actions. Reassured that Ruan Mei hadn't revealed her identity, he said...
"Oh, then you can stay here with me for the time being. My temporary home is quite big."

Nguyen Mai naturally wouldn't object; after touching the horn, she opened her arms and said...

"How about a reunion hug this time?"

Seeing this, Danlei didn't stand on ceremony and immediately hugged him.

Unfortunately, just as the two embraced, Danlei's door opened again.

In Zhuming, only one person has the key to Danlei's house, and that person is Danzhu.

As soon as Danzhu opened the door, she saw Danlei embracing a classical beauty. She was so shocked that the ancient books she was holding fell to the ground. Pointing at Danlei and Ruan Mei, she asked in astonishment...

"You...you, what's going on here?"

Upon seeing this, Danlei felt a sudden tightness in his chest, just like when he was on a date with a girl in his class in junior high or high school and was unexpectedly discovered by his mother.

Dan Lei immediately released Ruan Mei with a slightly flustered expression, but his hand was still on her shoulder. He then introduced her:
"Danzhu, this is Ruan Mei, whom I mentioned in my previous letter. She is seat 81 of the Genius Club and a genius in the field of life creation."

She is, and I am…

Dan Lei really didn't know how to explain his relationship with Nguyen Mai.

Danzhu is not an outsider, so you can't just casually say he's a friend.

But Danlei was afraid that Ruan Mei would be unhappy if they were lovers, since she had never said that she accepted him.

However, here Ruan Mei took the initiative to help Dan Lei out of the predicament, and in a way that made Dan Lei the happiest.

Ruan Mei gave a slight bow, a gesture typical of juniors, and said...
"You must be Miss Danzhu. Danlei often mentions you to me. My name is Ruan Mei, and Danlei and I are a couple."

Upon hearing Ruan Mei's words, Danzhu was instantly stunned, as if struck by lightning.

Dan Lei knew that he had a good relationship with the 81st and 83rd seats of the Genius Club. For a period of time, Dan Lei's letters mainly consisted of complaining about how troublesome it was to help them clean up the mess.

But Danzhu never expected that Danlei would actually be able to win someone over.

At the same time, the Black Tower, located in a tower on the edge of the Milky Way, suddenly sneezed. She suddenly felt as if she had lost something, but she couldn't remember exactly what it was.

So she spoke to the little black tower dolls around her.

"Quickly clean my room again, there's so much dust it's making me sneeze!"
