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

Chapter 371 Dan Lei: "Recall him? No way, I need to go find my wife first."

After Old Aodi left, Danlei and Sunday did not go to the room he had arranged, which was supposedly filled with the fragrance of young girls.

One of them had no interest in the ordinary women of the mortal world, while the other woman was only his sister and others in his eyes.

So the two of them watched the entire opening ceremony of the Harmony Music Festival from their VIP seats in the room.

Of course, just like in the game, as revenge for the other three major factions tripping him up, Robin directly spread the heroic deeds of the Starry Sky Train Crew at the opening ceremony and publicly gave the Celestial Stone to the Starry Sky Train Crew without Old Emperor's consent.

Old Emperor did not expect the robin to launch such a sudden attack. Just like in the game, Star Train has confirmed that it has acquired 5% of Pinocchio's shares.

In order not to offend the new shareholders and to protect Pinocchio's reputation at this stage, the old Aodi could only smile and admit the loss for now.

After the opening ceremony of the Harmony Grand Ceremony, Dan Lei went to Pinocchio in the real world, rescued Sunday's body, and then fulfilled his promise by simply leaving him unattended on the outskirts of Pinocchio.

On a pitiful Sunday, penniless, he was left to wander the wilderness outside Pinocchio like any other stowaway.

However, his suit and earrings were worth a lot of money, and his combat strength was not weak among the Fate Walkers, so dealing with stowaways would definitely not be a problem.

Dan Lei wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to survive in the suburbs of Pinocchio, or that he would be captured and sold into prostitution at a male escort club.

After saying goodbye to Sunday, Danlei took the pre-ordered gift to the Starry Sky Train to apologize.

The Starry Sky Train crew was relatively easy to talk to. When Dan Lei came to apologize, they only complained about him a few times before letting him off the hook and even agreed to take him to the Black Tower Space Station.

Normally, Black Swan should have already spoken to the Starry Sky Train crew about Onpharos by this time.

But Danlei didn't mention going to Onfaros together at all.

Given what Danlei did at Pinocchio, his willingness to go to Onfaros with the train crew is suspicious, even if Himeko and the others don't suspect he has ulterior motives. Black Swan will.

Therefore, Dan Lei had already decided that he would intervene in Onfaros's matter after the Starry Sky Train crew sought help from the Black Tower.

In any case, in the early stages of the Onpharos game storyline, Xing and Danheng only helped Aglaia and the others obtain the Titan Fire Seed, so whether they participated or not didn't make much difference.

However, just as Dan Lei had arranged with the train crew to return to the Black Tower Space Station the next day, Jing Yuan's Huang Zhong suddenly called.

Dan Lei knew why Jing Yuan was calling him, so he answered the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Jing Yuan, exhausted from preparing for the martial arts ceremony after being bombarded with a universe-wide announcement by [Aha], was exasperated with Dan Lei and simply said...

"My Lord Dragon, have you had enough fun in Pinocchio? Can we go home now?"

Dan Lei sensed the weariness in Jing Yuan's voice, but he didn't feel sorry for him, because his weariness was probably more of an emotional exhaustion.

Dan Lei had served as an acting general. In peacetime, a general's job is only to command the overall situation, and the heads of various departments will share the burden of specific matters with the general.

If all else fails, Jing Yuan can trick Fu Xuan into doing work by offering to experience the duties of a general. In any case, it won't tire Jing Yuan, who is already nearing the "old age" of the Immortal Ship people.

So Dan Lei said directly

“I didn’t play around at Pinocchio. If what I did counts as playing around, then all the major powers in the universe are just playing house.”

Also, I'm preparing to go home, but I'm going back to Ruan Mei's house.

"My current physical condition needs a thorough examination by Ruan Mei. After I swallowed the embryo of the philosophy of order, my body doesn't seem to have undergone any special changes."

Upon hearing that Dan Lei was going to Ruan Mei's place, Jing Yuan fell silent for more than ten seconds.

Then, Jing Yuan said in a routine tone...
"Okay, but I need to do my usual persuasion."

The Immortal Boat Alliance can also perform physical examinations; their technology is absolutely top-notch in the universe.

If needed, the Marshal can personally guard the gate for you, ensuring you will not be disturbed by any scoundrels.

Jing Yuan's words clearly indicated that it was a mission from the Immortal Ship Alliance. Someone had devoured the concept of the Star God, which was the first time in human history that such a person had done so, and it was even one of their own. Naturally, the Immortal Ship Alliance wanted to obtain firsthand information.

However, Dan Lei did not trust the Immortal Boat Alliance regarding the Star God issue.

Leaving aside the gap in scientific research capabilities in the biological field.

In terms of the purity of scientific research alone, the Fairy Boat Alliance is far inferior to the Genius Club.

Geniuses can abandon all unnecessary factors, including morality, for the sake of their research.

The Immortal Boat Alliance is clearly not an option, and it's inevitable that Dan Lei's return to the alliance for a medical examination will be entangled with various political factors.

Moreover, in terms of kinship, Ruan Mei, as his bedmate, is more trustworthy than Dr. Dihengsi of the Xianzhou Alliance.

At least Nguyen Mai genuinely wanted to document everything that happened during Dan Lei's journey to becoming a Star God, so she could analyze the secrets of the Star God.

Therefore, Nguyen Mai will definitely do everything she can to help herself become a star goddess.

However, political issues certainly can't be discussed openly, Dan Lei replied directly to Jing Yuan.
"Going back to the Immortal Boat Alliance is out of the question. In terms of equipment and research capabilities, the Alliance is still no match for Ruan Mei's side."

As you know, no matter how many resources the Immortal Boat Alliance has, it still can't compete with geniuses when it comes to scientific research. Geniuses are unreasonable.

Dan Lei's reasoning was irrefutable to Jing Yuan, and it was equally irrefutable to anyone from Xian Zhou.

Unless the Immortal Ship can find a genius in the field of life creation who is even stronger than Ruan Mei, it can only feel inferior in terms of technical ability.

So, Jing Yuan settled for second best and said in a serious tone...
"Understood, but you still need to show up at the Luofu Martial Arts Ceremony three months from now."

The Ming Clan needs your reassurance now. Your constant absence from the Immortal Ship has given many people the opportunity to stir up trouble.

When Dan Lei heard that the Luofu Martial Arts Ceremony would be held in three months, he figured that Ruan Mei was just checking her body and it shouldn't take that long.

Anyway, I don't necessarily have to wait for the report to come out before leaving; I can leave as soon as the examination is completed.

Danlei then agreed.

“Okay, I will return to Luofu before the martial arts ceremony, but I will leave again after the ceremony.”

You know, it's not good for me to be away from home all the time, and it's not good for me to stay in the Immortal Boat Alliance for too long either.

The best way to maintain the stability of the Immortal Ship Alliance is to keep it elusive and rarely seen.

Jing Yuan agreed with Dan Lei's statement, but he dared not say it in Huang Zhong's communications, so he laughed and said...

"Danlei, don't ask me for my opinion. I can't interfere in your affairs."

In some ways, you already have more influence in the league than I do.

Since Jing Yuan said that, Dan Lei stopped arguing, since he didn't dare to talk freely in the Huang Zhong system.

After exchanging a few more polite words, Danlei hung up the phone.

After finishing, Danlei immediately opened his group chat with Heita and Ruan Mei.

Dan Lei: "I've already arranged with the Star Train. We'll depart from Pinocene tomorrow and go directly to the Black Tower Space Station. It should take about a day."

"No problem, let's go straight to my tower for further research." Black Tower: "No problem, come directly to my tower for further research."

Nguyen Mai: "No, the equipment at the Black Tower isn't as complete as what I have at my research base."

Danlei, why don't you just come to my base? [Coordinates]

Dan Lei: "Ruan Mei, this will expose one of your bases again. I think it's better to come through the Black Tower."

Black Tower, this time when you went to Ruan Mei's place to conduct research, your tower's equipment is top-notch in researching imaginary energy, but it's still a bit behind Ruan Mei's in researching biological changes.

Anyway, it's the two of you studying me together this time, so it doesn't matter who's there." Black Tower: "Tch, got it. This time we'll go to Ruan Mei's place, and I'll upgrade my biological experimental equipment here later."

Nguyen Mai's procurement channels are far inferior to mine.

Heita was being arrogant again, so neither Danlei nor Ruan Mei responded, and instead changed the subject.

"Dan Lei, did you leave behind a sample of the embryonic form of your philosophy of order?" Ruan Mei asked.

Nguyen Mai asked this question clearly to see the difference between the so-called philosophical embryo and the simulated star god she was cultivating in the simulated universe.

At this moment, the embryo of the philosophy of order actually exists in Dan Lei's Memory Grail. Dan Lei has no idea how to refine this thing and can only passively absorb and analyze the divine mysteries within it through the Grail.

Therefore, if Danlei really wanted to remove some of it, it was actually possible.

But once this thing falls into Ruan Mei's hands, it's easy to imagine that she will definitely create an Ordered Creature.

Adhering to the principle of "the less trouble, the better," Danlei replied half-jokingly.
Dan Lei said, "I didn't leave any samples. At the time, I wanted to leave absolutely nothing behind. How could I have deliberately left any samples?"

Ruan Mei did not doubt that Dan Lei was lying. The concept of an embryonic philosophy of order was very abstract, and whether it could be brought out of the dream was a question. Dan Lei swallowed it all without leaving any residue, which was no problem. She would have done the same.

So, Danlei fobbed off the topic.

In the following period, Danlei began a large-scale shopping spree at Pinocchio, as he planned to undergo another trek after completing his medical examination.

Since the absorption of the embryonic philosophy of order may take time, given the pace of the Star Iron Universe's plot, if a problem arises that requires time, simply time travel will suffice.

However, it's possible that their large-scale purchase of basic supplies was too obvious, or perhaps someone on the Star Train side accidentally got the information out of them.

In short, the news that Dan Lei was leaving Pinocchio tomorrow spread like wildfire within a few hours.

So, while Danlei was waiting for the harvest, the robin came knocking.

As soon as the robin arrived at Danlei's place, it began to look around, hoping to find a figure it didn't recognize at all.

However, at this time, Sunday was probably still struggling to survive in the wilderness of Pinocene, so naturally she had nothing to show for it.

Seeing this, Dan Lei could only say helplessly.
"Robin, stop looking. You should know that I also saved Sunday's physical body in reality."

However, I didn't bring him with me, and he didn't want to work for me.

So, this guy should be experiencing the life of a stowaway in the Pinocchio wilderness right now.

Upon hearing this, the robin immediately asked with a worried expression.
"Huh? My brother is in the wilderness of Pinocene, isn't he in danger?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei shook his head speechlessly, and then said...
"You underestimate Sunday; he's not so easily defeated."

Also, now you understand how he felt when he knew you were running alone on the battlefield on Sundays.

Now that you two have switched roles as siblings, you should give him your full trust.

Dan Lei's words, "Our roles have been switched," effectively shut down the robin's entire sentence.

She realized that Sunday had worried about her just as much, so she shouldn't interfere with the problems Sunday was facing now.

In short, Danlei's unintentional remark made Sunday experience at least another month of hardship.

However, after figuring things out, the robin still bowed deeply to Danlei and said very solemnly.

“Mr. Danlei, I am here today to thank you for helping my brother get out of prison and for showing him a way out.”

Danlei fully accepted the robin's gratitude, but still politely said...

"It's not something that requires special thanks. After all, I did mess with Sunday, so this is just a small compensation to him."

As for giving directions, I certainly didn't point out the right path.

I simply suggested that he travel around the universe more, see more, and then think carefully about what his own order should really be like.

What he ultimately learns on Sunday is up to him.

If he insists on the principles of order, you siblings might clash over your ideas again in the future.

Danlei said that Sunday did not abandon the path of order, and the robin seemed neither surprised nor worried, simply saying
"That's good. After seeing the stars, my brother will surely be able to figure out a more reasonable path to order."

After saying that, the robin took out a small ball and handed it to Danlei, saying...

"This is a thank-you gift I prepared for you, Mr. Danlei."

I originally intended to give it to you on a more formal occasion, but I heard you're leaving Pinocchio tomorrow, so I can only give it to you now.

The robin brought him a gift, and Danlei curiously took it to look at it, then asked in surprise.

"This is an imaginary subspace factory, and a military factory at that. Not bad, it's a pretty good toy."

Yes, this is just a high-end toy, a toy from some advanced civilization.

With the imaginary subspace technology of the Star Iron Universe, it wouldn't be too surprising to compress an artificial galaxy inhabited by life within it.

Setting up a military factory that can automatically produce as long as there are resources is not a technical problem at all.

Of course, military factories are also divided into different grades.

The robin provides relatively high-end equipment, capable of producing everything from small firearms to large spaceships.

Of course, the spaceships produced were only the kind of military spaceships that could barely leave their star system and fly to nearby star systems.

The efficiency is about one ship per day.

This type of spaceship lacks a jump system. Although its energy source is imaginary energy, its engine is very rudimentary. When flying to a nearby star system, it can only accelerate to sub-light speed and then rely on inertia to fly for several years.

To Dan Lei, who was born in the Xianzhou League, it's just a toy.

Any random starship in Luofu that can travel to space is more advanced than this thing.

However, this factory is, after all, a military factory, and it would be easy to wipe out those civilizations that have just entered the universe.

The Interstellar Peace Corporation was established to prevent advanced civilizations from using this device to destroy other civilizations.

This item was directly classified as a controlled product and its sale was prohibited.

After all, any intelligent civilization, even one that hasn't yet left its planet, is a market that can be developed in the eyes of the Interstellar Peace Corporation.

Even if a planet has no special products, people are still a resource.

We absolutely cannot allow other advanced civilizations to run rampant.

Therefore, the value of this item lies mainly in its collectability, since it cannot be bought on the market.

Buying this thing through connections is a bit of a waste of favors.

　In the game, the martial arts ceremony and the Origami University storyline are clearly set to take place within a few weeks.

　　As clearly stated at the beginning of the Sunday farewell to the robin storyline, it takes place several weeks after the Black Swan persuades the train crew to go to Onphalus.

　　However, the issue of time in this book has been repeated several times, so I still won't be writing based on game time this time.
