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

Chapter 409 Return, "Dividing the Spoils"

In the Iron Collapse Universe, in Ruan Mei's secret laboratory room amidst the starry sea, Dan Lei opened his eyes.

Crossing the world takes only a moment, so Danlei felt as if he were having a very long dream.

Moreover, since he had informed both of his wives about the time travel, Danlei simply lay in bed and traveled through time.

So when I woke up, Zhixin was lying next to me.

At this moment, Zhixin also woke up and found herself lying next to Danlei, her face immediately turning as red as an apple.

However, Zhi Xin wasn't scared into jumping up. Becoming Dan Lei's guardian angel meant that she would always follow Dan Lei, and it was normal for them to do things that involved men and women.

However, back in the Super God Universe, the closest thing Dan Lei and Zhi Xin did was hold hands, so Zhi Xin was still incredibly innocent at that time.

However, without the consent of his two wives, even if Dan Lei had ten times the courage of a dragon, he wouldn't dare to touch this little white rabbit.

So Danlei got out of bed, stretched his body, and then said...

"Zhixin, let's go. I'll take you to meet my two wives, and your teacher will be behind them."

Of course, you have to pass their test first.

At this moment, Zhixin clearly still didn't feel the reality. When Danlei decided to leave the Super God Universe and asked her to say goodbye to her friends in private, she imagined what it would be like to travel through the known universe.

But in reality, after Danlei took her to Vimana alone, she woke up in the blink of an eye and was lying next to Danlei.

However, Zhi Xin was able to confirm that the area she was in was indeed no longer in the known universe.

Because there seems to be a problem with my Dark Dimension, although the gene engine and other things are still usable, there is a noticeable lag when I open it.

Moreover, dark energy in the universe is significantly thinner, while imaginary energy is exceptionally abundant.

So, after Zhixin got out of bed with Danlei, she asked somewhat uneasily.

"Danlei, are we the only ones back? Where are Miss Koyanskaya and little Huanlong?"

Dan Lei knew that Zhi Xin was a little nervous about suddenly arriving in a universe where she was unfamiliar with everything, so he released Xiao Huanlong and secretly instructed her to swallow some of Zhi Xin's uneasy emotions, saying...

"Koyanskaya has gone back to where she belongs, and you normally won't see her again."

You've read her legend too; I can't possibly come back and keep her by my side forever.

If you feel uneasy, hold Xiao Huanlong; she can soothe your anxiety.

When Zhixin saw the familiar Xiao Huanlong appear, she naturally didn't stand on ceremony and hugged her in her arms like a doll.

Xiao Huanlong didn't hold back and immediately began to savor the burning anxiety, which quickly calmed her down.

Seeing that Zhixin's emotions had stabilized, Danlei took her out and headed straight for Ruan Mei and Heita's laboratory.

Dan Lei brought a winged angel to find them. Ruan Mei and Heita naturally knew that Dan Lei had been to the New World and returned after his trials.

So the two of them stopped their experiments and came out to see what good stuff Danlei had brought this time.

However, this time Danlei didn't come back and immediately try to coax his wife with all sorts of things, just like before.

Dan Lei needed Ruan Mei and Heita to maintain a certain level of prestige in front of Zhi Xin, so he first introduced Zhi Xin to the two of them and explained in detail how she ended up with him.

Just as Dan Lei had predicted, seeing that Dan Lei hadn't touched Zhi Xin, Hei Ta didn't immediately say, "The answer is... something that doesn't exist." Instead, he looked at Zhi Xin with a scrutinizing gaze and asked Dan Lei...
"So, your only gain from this trip to another universe was bringing back a concubine?"

Although Black Tower's reaction was within his expectations, Dan Lei still quickly explained.
"There are still quite a few good things, but we need to discuss them privately."

If you're being honest, my suggestion is that you and Ruan Mei take care of her for a while.

Don't let her seemingly easy-going appearance fool you; she has exceptional learning and research abilities. The powerful beings in that universe all follow the technological path, and each of them is a humanoid computer.

That universe has advanced biotechnology to the particle level. Although they are still carbon-based life forms, the powerful beings there can use technology to control the particles in their bodies and have computers engraved into their genes.

The simplified version of the imaginary subspace technology you gave me was mastered in just two weeks, even though she knew nothing about the properties of imaginary energy and only relied on my explanation. She even did some hands-on practice afterwards, which was a huge help to me.”

When Hei Ta heard that Zhi Xin had gone from knowing nothing about imaginary energy to mastering imaginary subspace technology in just two weeks, relying on Dan Lei's inadequate (genius perspective) knowledge of imaginary theory, Hei Ta immediately became interested in her.

So Black Tower immediately asked Zhi Xin a question about imaginary subspace technology: he recognized the two characters "Dan Lei," but couldn't understand them when put together.

Zhi Xin has already mastered the imaginary subspace technology given by the Black Tower. Dan Lei wasn't exaggerating; on the contrary, she has also conducted some basic theoretical research on this technology.

Zhi Xin answered Hei Ta's two questions fluently. Afterwards, Hei Ta looked at Dan Lei and commented.
"It's not bad. This little angel has indeed learned my simple imaginary subspace technology. I can try to teach her, but if she doesn't meet my requirements in the later stages of learning, I will kick her out."

Hmm, let me think. For the first challenge, I'll learn the theories I studied before I was ten.

The test that Black Tower gave Zhixin was by no means simple. Geniuses are unreasonable. Her theoretical research before the age of ten would probably be very difficult for even the most outstanding doctor in the Bo Shi Society to understand.

You should know that the Black Tower space station has a rare artifact called the "Childhood Kaleidoscope of Genius," which Black Tower uses to relive and admire his childhood beauty when he's feeling narcissistic.

As a result, because Heta began studying various profound theories from a young age, he spent his childhood surrounded by various formulas.

If an ordinary person with limited knowledge were to read this "Kaleidoscope of a Genius' Childhood," there probably wouldn't be any major problems.

But researchers of average ability would become immersed in those formulas and suffer a mental shock.

It's worth noting that the Lone Wave algorithm was solved during her teenage years at Black Tower. Although her exact age at the time wasn't specified, it wouldn't have been much older than Stephen Lloyd is now.

Therefore, Black Tower's research before the age of ten was most likely already the pinnacle of mortal achievement.

However, Dan Lei did not intend to interfere with the Black Tower's arrangements regarding the test. Zhi Xin wanted to be recognized by the two geniuses, so he had to show potential close to that of a genius.

Just as Dr. Truth was favored by Screw Gum, Zhi Xin also needs to prove with practical actions that she has merit in scientific research.

Therefore, after the Black Tower assigned the task, Dan Lei immediately instructed Xiao Huanlong to take Zhixin away from the laboratory, as she would likely be staying in the archives for a long time.

After Zhixin left, Danlei immediately revealed a smug expression, like a little fox who had stolen an egg, and said...
"Alright, now, here comes the real takeaway from this experience."

You see, I came back without fully grasping the rules of order, because I was eager to cash in on my gains.

"I can't fully understand the technology of that world myself; you'll have to do it." After saying that, Dan Lei kept taking things out of the Holy Grail space: the Immortal One from the artifact storage box, the Star Forger Dragon King, and all the god-level super gene samples that Dan Lei had encountered. He put them in the ecological cabinet for Hua Ye's main body, which was to be used as an experimental sample for Ruan Mei.

There are also materials like Dark Iron and Dark Silver that are not found in the Star Iron Universe.

Hei Ta and Nguyen Mai have different interests and hobbies, so what attracts them to each other at first is also different.

Nguyen Mai was clearly interested in various genetic samples because she knew that whatever Dan Lei collected, he considered valuable.

Dan Lei may not be good at scientific research, but Ruan Mei still trusts his eye for treasures.

Regarding the Black Tower, she directly opened the artifact storage box, took out the Immortal One, and asked...
"This is... a galaxy compressed using my imaginary subspace technology..."

"Danlei, it must be more than just a galaxy, right? What secrets does it hold?"

Regarding the Black Tower's question, Dan Lei answered with a smile.

"This is a nebula-level computer. The people over there connected the entire galaxy to create a supercomputer. It's a specialty of the universe I visited."

However, these supercomputers have very low energy efficiency, relying solely on their size to increase computing power. If this supercomputer is to be used normally, Black Tower will definitely need to redesign the program and optimize energy efficiency.

Furthermore, it contains all the technological data of an entire civilization, including information on genetic research, which Ruan Mei should be able to use as a reference.

When Black Tower heard that the "glass" sphere of the imaginary subspace contained a nebula-level supercomputer, his eyes lit up.

Since Rupert II's scepter system, no one in the universe has been able to create a supercomputer.

Moreover, even in a scepter system, a single scepter is at most the size of a star.

A nebula-level supercomputer—if not unprecedented, then certainly unprecedented. Even before Bo Shi Zun ascended to the Star God realm, its physical form wasn't this large.

Because the definition of the essence of the erudite being is a celestial computer.

Therefore, in principle, with the resources of an entire galaxy to squander, the Black Tower felt that it might be able to create a second Eminent Monarch.

However, seeing Black Tower's increasingly grotesque smile at Immortal One, Dan Lei immediately poured cold water on his enthusiasm, saying in a serious tone, in the words of the riddle master,

"Black Tower, I can probably guess what you're planning right now. You might already be thinking of teaming up with Screws, Goom, and Stephen to do something big."

However, from the moment I brought this computer into this universe, some being should have been aware of its existence.

Everything you do will be affected by it.

Therefore, I think whatever ideas you have, don't implement them now. We must find other forces to shield you from the influence of certain entities before we can get to work.

Heita understood what Dan Lei meant, but her genius-level arrogance led her to confidently reply...
"Danlei, do you think I'm the kind of person who's easily influenced?"

Don't worry, I will unleash the full potential of this supercomputer. With its assistance, my simulated universe will definitely reach new heights.

"Polkakaka, you didn't expect that, did you? You've made a mess of my simulated universe, but now it's actually making it easier for me to upgrade."

Seeing Heita's attitude, Dan Lei knew she wouldn't listen to his advice.

However, the Immortal One also has its own insurance, so Dan Lei added...
"Alright, Black Tower, you know what you're doing."

Furthermore, I raised hundreds of millions of computing power worms in this computer; they were the key to my takeover of this computer.

These guys are fine as long as they consume redundant computer data; don't kill them all.

Upon hearing Dan Lei's words, Hei Ta frowned slightly, because few normal girls like insects (Ruan Mei is an exception).

However, if these are all Dan Lei's pets, Black Tower will have a hard time cleaning them up and can only protest.
"Hundreds of millions of computing power worms? What are you planning to do with them? Paralyze all the computers in the universe? Or use them to attack Bo Shi Zun?"
Besides, couldn't you have kept them somewhere else? You're using such a great supercomputer to raise insects?

Dan Lei said he couldn't do anything about the Black Tower's protests, and shrugged.
"Tell me, right now, besides the supercomputer we have, what other computer in the universe can support so many computing power worms?"

You can't expect me to raise so many bugs on Screw Star, can you? Screw Gum will definitely challenge me to a duel.

Since redundant data already needs to be processed by a dedicated program anyway, using it to feed insects is a good way to make use of waste.

Moreover, external computing power worms are no match for my robust and powerful computing power worms; they are also natural enemies of hacker intrusions, and they can serve as the system's last line of defense.

Dan Lei's argument that the computing power worms should be used as firewalls convinced Black Tower, because the combat power of hundreds of millions of controlled computing power worms in the electronic field should not be underestimated.

To put it bluntly, algorithms and power specifically designed to kill computing power worms will be ineffective 99% of the time when faced with so many worms.

Because these insects have never been seen moving in groups of hundreds of millions; usually, it's already quite remarkable if a few dozen appear at once.

Since things had come to this, Black Tower could only say with disdain...
"Okay, okay, I'll make sure to save food for your insect pet."

Honestly, I'll have to give all those bugs a makeover later, at least make them look more presentable.

Seeing that Black Tower had compromised, Dan Lei didn't say anything more.

As long as these computing power worms remain inside Immortal One, this computer will not escape my control.

In the worst-case scenario, Dan Lei could also disable the supercomputer to prevent it from falling into enemy hands.

Moreover, we'll be heading to Onphalus next, whose true form is a scepter.

With so many computing power worms, they're sure to give the mastermind a surprise.

Therefore, Danlei took the initiative to ask...

"Black Tower, Zhi Xin has some experience in building supercomputer systems."

She had a sacred language for computers, which, although not very efficient, could still serve as a reference.

These next few days, please work hard to get this computer working again.

For scientific research, the more computing power the better, and Nguyen Mai will need the assistance of this computing power in the future.

"You know, this time I brought back the genes of an immortal dragon capable of creating planets. Combined with the super gene technology for traversing the universe, it should allow my immortal dragon body to advance even further."
