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

Chapter 312 The Black Swan That Courted Death
Dan Lei managed to dodge the question about Yi Ling and even got a free search for her from Black Swan.

There's no way around it, the black swan's curiosity is just too strong, and of all things, it has to be curious about what Dan Lei's memory spirit is.

If this matter is dragged on, who knows what she might do next, or what kind of huge mess she might create.

The truth about the source fire in [Suihuang] will only be revealed if you ask Black Tower, Ruan Mei, or the higher-ups of the Immortal Boat Alliance.

However, these people are clearly not people that Black Swan could access at Pinocchio.

However, even if Dan Lei prevented the black swan from making one fatal mistake, he couldn't prevent it from happening again.

Seeing that working could earn information and memories, Black Swan immediately asked...
"It is said that the women around Mr. Danlei are either envoys or geniuses."

"That beautiful and noble lady who appeared in the memories of the destruction of the Eternal Flame Mansion, can you tell me about her?"

When Black Swan asked this question, Dan Lei felt a surge of schadenfreude.

This marks the beginning of the black swan's transformation from a mysterious prophet to a prisoner.

This person has a truly sharp eye; they spotted the one person they absolutely must not mess with at a glance.

Therefore, Dan Lei shook his head slightly.

"Miss Black Swan, just listen to what you hear online. If you actually believe it, you'll only hurt yourself."

As for the woman you mentioned, I cannot disclose her information without her consent.

However, we'll relax for a while tonight in the banquet hall of the Daydream Hotel in the real world. If you have any questions, you can go and ask them in person.

"By the way, if you want to know anything else, help me find the person first."

After saying that, Dan Lei didn't wait for Black Swan's reply this time. He opened the dream portal he had just learned again and went inside.

This time, Danlei didn't go to the golden hour, but instead went to the twilight hour.

Dusk is a paradise for fashion, luxury, and consumerism, where most of the universe's luxuries can be purchased.

Pinocone offers delivery services, from real-world daydream hotel rooms to known galactic edges.

Danlei didn't come to the twilight to buy luxury goods; he had absolutely no interest in those things.

Danlei is here to attend the auction.

The appearance of the black swan disrupted Danlei's original plans to visit Adien Park.

So, Danlei decided to go to the auction to see if there was anything interesting.

Since I've come all this way to Pinocchio, I should bring back some gifts for Heita and Ruan Mei.

Even if they don't need gifts that don't help with research, it doesn't mean Danlei can really go back empty-handed.

Moreover, at Pinocchio's auctions, knowledge and experience can be turned into memory auctions.

Of course, these memory bubbles won't allow you to immediately learn the knowledge after reading them.

Scholars cannot be created through memory transfer; the Interstellar Peace Corporation has already proven this.

The logic is simple: even with the most basic language, if you instill it in someone who has never spoken a word, they will be unable to express the language in their mind.

The memory bubbles here are meant to transform you into an experiencer within them.

In theory, as long as one's intelligence is normal, if one goes through the memory bubble dozens or hundreds of times, even if one cannot apply the knowledge flexibly, one will still remember it by rote memorization.

The principle is to utilize the thought speed of intelligent beings in dreams, thereby eliminating the burden of physical exertion and enabling them to learn quickly.

MemoryPao Learning is a relatively efficient learning machine, similar in nature to the learning pods of Interstellar Peace Company.

After all, in the interstellar era, if we rely on the traditional teacher-student learning method, the total amount of knowledge that needs to be learned has already exceeded the total amount that short-lived species can learn in their lifespan.

Without increasing the speed of learning, relying solely on geniuses who don't share knowledge would have led to a major technological stagnation long ago.

Of course, the learning machine can only teach basic knowledge, such as spaceship piloting and the basic interstellar theory in the normal person's mind.

Like the "children's books" that Heita gave Danlei, none of the things in them could be learned through a learning machine.

However, the knowledge and information contained in the memory bubbles that appear at the Pinocchio auction have all been authenticated; ordinary knowledge is not qualified to appear here.

Therefore, based on the publicly available auction information, Danlei set his sights on several memory bubbles that contained knowledge of high-energy particles from the Boshi Society, planning to go in and study them properly when the opportunity arose.

There's not much to say about the auction that Dan Lei participated in.

After the auction house staff confirmed Dan Lei's identity, they immediately treated him with great respect, inviting him into the most luxurious private room and arranging for the most beautiful maids to serve him.

Although the purchases made at the auction cannot be fully waived by the purchases promised on Sunday.

But with Danlei's financial resources, he could buy back anything he wanted at a regular auction like this.

Soon, it was nighttime in Pinocchio in the real world.

Although the Pinocchio in my dream is said to be forever on the last night of the holiday.

In fact, each guest's dream passport serves as a reminder of the passage of time in the outside world.

Because room rates are settled daily, guests at the Daydream Hotel often run out of money in their accounts, making it impossible for them to pay their room rates, and are eventually evicted from the hotel.

Therefore, reminder services are essential.

At the appointed time, Danlei returned to reality and headed to the banquet hall of the Daydream Hotel to meet Xiao Huanlong and the others.

Through the contract, Danlei knew that they had already arrived at the banquet hall ahead of everyone else.

Upon arriving at the banquet hall, Dan Lei discovered that Huang Quan had changed his clothes and was wearing a formal suit; he had clearly dressed up.

Huang Quan clearly wouldn't do something like dressing himself up.

After becoming a self-destructive being, she gradually lost her human desires.

Although she understands cosmetics and even buys them as gifts for the train crew, she probably wouldn't use them herself; at least Danlei has never seen Huang Quan use any cosmetics.

Even if Huang Quan had the idea of ​​dressing up, it's impossible for him to dress up like this for the occasion.

Sure enough, as soon as Dan Lei arrived, Xiao Huanlong proudly pulled Huang Quan aside to show off, saying...
"Master, what do you think of the dress I chose for Sister Huang Quan?"

With makeup done by a professional makeup artist from COLORS Makeup, isn't it beautiful?

At this moment, Huang Quan was like a puppet being manipulated at will by Xiao Huanlong, cooperating with her performance with a blank expression.

Dan Lei could only give it a thumbs up and praise it.
"Xiao Huanlong, you have excellent taste! The makeup and styling you chose are also very exquisite."

"Not bad, not bad, Huang Quan, you're starting to make me a little smitten. I feel like you could directly compete with the robin for the title of Superstar of the Galaxy."

Although Huang Quan is usually taciturn, he can still tell that others are praising him.

So she nodded in response.

"Thank you, this outfit is indeed very beautiful, but it cost quite a bit of money. I..."

Huang Quan was unaware that Dan Lei could keep track of all such ordinary expenses, and thought that Xiao Huanlong had spent Dan Lei's money to buy herself clothes and accessories.

However, just as she was about to say that she would repay the money later, Dan Lei decisively interrupted her.
"Don't mention money, you should know I'm not short of it."

If you really feel guilty, dance with me later; you'll definitely be the center of attention.

It sounds a bit strange that a self-destructive person would become the focus of attention.

However, Huang Quan certainly has the qualifications. Does she really think that Mihoyo's famous female star is a pushover? She and her counterpart are still top sellers in another world.

Dan Lei didn't hold back his praise, and Xiao Huanlong immediately became very proud.

She started chattering on and on about how much fun she had at Pinocchio that day, how many people she had tricked and absorbed their emotions, saying it was simply paradise. It can only be said that Little Illusion, having restricted herself from actively harming others, is now showing signs of developing into the Masked Fool.

In order to provoke various emotions in others, she often chooses to play various pranks to cause misunderstandings around the target.

She would even orchestrate lucky pervert incidents just to absorb the target's peculiar feeling that he had gained something and that getting beaten up wasn't a loss.

Of course, she only did the "lucky pervert" incident once.

When Danlei found out later, he gave her a good talking-to and even put her in solitary confinement.

Now, she only dares to play harmless pranks.

For example, Huang Quan and herself would dress up beautifully (Huanlong's natural features are quite good), and then deliberately walk together towards men who have partners.

When a man's gaze is unconsciously drawn to Huang Quan and Xiao Huanlong, he can simultaneously experience two intense and complex emotions.

Of course, pretty girls not only attract the attention of men, but also female hooligans.

Suddenly, the black swan appeared out of nowhere, smiling as it walked towards Dan Lei, and said...

“Mr. Danlei, I now understand why you were so resistant to me.”

With two such beauties by my side, they certainly wouldn't look at a woman like me, dressed in simple clothes.

Black Swan's words, seemingly self-deprecating, actually express his dissatisfaction with Dan Lei.

After all, the Black Swan's looks and figure are undeniable, no less than Huang Quan's.

Of course, by saying this, she could also prevent her bodyguards, Draig and Albion, from stopping her immediately.

As soon as the black swan appeared, Xiao Huanlong looked at Danlei immediately, her eyes filled with only one thought.

"Master, are you out of your mind? Daring to mess with a new girl in Pinocchio."

Yes, Xiao Huanlong knows what's important. She is very clear that no matter how intimate Dan Lei and Huang Quan's behavior is, if the photos are leaked, Hei Ta and Ruan Mei will not have any objections.

A self-destructing being at the Commander level, regardless of whether the Yellow Springs still possess feelings like love.

Just the fact that Dan Lei dared to touch her is enough to earn him praise for his courage.

If they really had sex and Danlei is still alive, that would be a miracle in biology and the theory of nihilistic destiny; Danlei would be contributing to science.

But if it were a meme, Danlei would probably have to live as a meme himself from now on.

However, Dan Lei knew why the Black Swan had come looking for him, and directly replied to Xiao Huanlong with the contract.
"Don't look at me like that. Get ready for a big meal. This person's emotions will be very complicated later."

After speaking, Danlei introduced the topic to the others.

"This person who remembers is a black swan; I met her during the golden hour of the day."

I made a deal with her; we're practically friends.

After Dan Lei said that, the others understood that the Black Swan was most likely a temporary teammate with limited trust, so they all nodded to indicate that they would remember this person.

Black Swan clearly didn't care about the opinions of the souls under Dan Lei's command; these souls, attached to Dan Lei, would never reveal anything to him.

So the black swan directly extended its hand to Huang Quan, bowed, and smiled.

"Beautiful lady, would you like to dance with me?"

The black swan's behavior caused Xiao Huanlong, Dreig, and Albion to hold a small meeting in Danlei's mind to express their surprise.

"Danlei, where did you find this Memory Master? No one without the strength of an Envoy dares to dance with Miss Huangquan?"

Albion: "I can already see the end of this Memory Maker, corrupted by the power of nothingness until not even ashes remain."

Considering the fate of that vengeful spirit, Miss Huangquan is, in my eyes, nothingness descended to earth.

Little Illusion: "Master, are you sure the emotions behind this Memory Maker are edible? Will they be mixed with the power of nothingness and cause me to be infected by nothingness?"

No, I won't eat such dangerous emotions.

Dan Lei: "You guys, have some faith in Huang Quan, okay?"

When did she ever reveal the power of nothingness?

However, it would be interesting if the Black Swan dared to actively pry into the memories of the Underworld.

Don't worry, Xiao Huanlong. She doesn't have the ability to delve into the memories of the Yellow Springs yet. She'd probably be terrified just by looking at the white-haired mode on the surface.

This way, one will not be tainted by the power of nothingness.

So everyone, enjoy the show! Remember to clap after they finish dancing.

While Dan Lei and the other three were having a telepathic meeting, Huang Quan had already agreed to dance for the Black Swan.

At this moment, Huang Quan might be recalling his life in Izumo.

Since it was rare for someone to invite him to dance, Huang Quan naturally wouldn't refuse.

Once the two entered the dance floor, just like in the animated short film "Eternal Dance," the Black Swan's entrance sequence was quite intriguing.

At this time, the Black Swan is still the lead dancer, responsible for guiding Huang Quan in his dance.

However, when the two snapped together, their bodies pressed close and then separated, the situation instantly reversed.

The black swan instantly ceased to be the lead dancer and began to instinctively follow Huang Quan's movements.

Even from a distance, Dan Lei could see that the black swan's eyes were vacant, as if it had been broken.

Xiao Huanlong was also sighing in the mental chat room at this moment.
"Such pure fear. What did this person see in Sister Huangquan's memories?"

It's as if he was instantly skinned and dismembered, dying seven or eight times over.

In response to Xiao Huanlong's sentiments, Dan Lei said
"Little Huanlong, go and help the black swan back later, and eat some of her fear."

At this point, she'll definitely cooperate and let her emotions dictate her actions.

After saying that, Dan Lei remained silent, watching Huang Quan and the Black Swan finish their dance.

After the dance, the black swan meme was drenched in sweat.

She had regained her senses and was breathing heavily, as if she had survived a close call.

Seeing this, Danlei and Xiaohuanlong clapped and walked over to the two.

Dan Lei gave a gentlemanly bow and extended his hand to Huang Quan, saying...
"Miss Huang Quan, would you do me the honor of dancing with me?"

Huang Quan hadn't had enough dancing yet, so when Dan Lei invited him, he naturally let go of Black Swan and took Dan Lei's hand.

Black Swan was deeply moved when she saw Dan Lei sacrifice himself to save her from the tiger.

However, Xiao Huanlong had already taken advantage of the action of supporting her to begin to feast on her emotions.

The black swan naturally noticed Xiao Huanlong's actions.

However, at that moment she needed someone to alleviate the lingering fear in her heart, so she did not stop it.

　MiHoYo only counts gacha pulls; the character that makes the most money is Raiden General.

　　The reissue caught the wave of a surge in new players due to the pandemic, making it a well-deserved sales champion.

　　Of course, this can only be considered a gacha game.

　　If we consider all the surrounding miscellaneous things, Fufu should be higher than General Thunder.
