I, the Lord of the Fifth Throne, am the source of all things!

As Möbius, who was standing next to Duanmu Lian, processed the information in his mind, his curiosity and excitement growing stronger.

This world is still Earth, but the strange things that exist on this Earth are so fascinating that Möbius has a strong desire to study them.

"grown ups....."

Just as Duanmu Lian was about to leave the Sun God Cult base with Mebius, a Karula appeared in front of him.

This Karula, or rather the Karula given to Duanmu Lian by the Sun God Cult, is not a clone of Karula numbered 19835.

There would be no disobedience to orders; even if Duanmu Lian ordered them to die immediately, they would not hesitate for a moment.

"Kalulla, how many of you are left?"

Looking at Karura in front of her, Duanmu Lian stopped and asked how many she had left.

The Sun God Cult gave Duanmu Lian one hundred Karulas, and he didn't use them all up in three years.

Mebius looked at Carla with slightly burning eyes. According to the information provided by Duanmu Lian, the person in front of him was a clone of the Time Saintess who could manipulate time.

The power of time has been mass-produced to such an extent that it's impossible for Möbius not to be curious.

"Currently, 'I' have 28 individuals left."

"Send five of them to come with me. The rest will remain in this base, on standby and awaiting my orders."

"As ordered."

Karula nodded and immediately followed Duanmu Lian's instructions, selecting five Karulas to enter the recuperation pods.

Afterwards, Duanmu Lian used her mental power to carry five recovery pods, put Mebius's suitcase into her spatial ring, and then took her to her personal base.

but......

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!!

A sonic boom, faster than a lifetime, exploded in the sky, and the cause of this commotion was two people.

"Mr. Duanmu...didn't you bring any stable vehicle?"

High in the sky, Mebius, flying at Mach 20, looked somewhat pale.

At this moment, she was held under Duanmu Lian's right armpit, her entire body enveloped and protected by supernatural power, preventing her from being torn apart by the excessively fast wind.

"High-tech vehicles cannot be used recklessly in this world, and this is not going to be fast."

The sounds of wind and fire rang out as Duanmu Lian, riding on her Wind and Fire Wheels, spoke unhurriedly.

The flying magical artifact, the Wind and Fire Wheel, beneath his feet was shaped like a tai chi symbol, constantly rotating.

When the two wheels are in operation, wind and fire arrive simultaneously, so its power can chase the wind and fire, and its heat is endless.

In terms of speed, it can fly through the sky and into the sea, soar through the clouds and carry lightning, covering thousands of miles in the sky. Its speed is extremely fast, comparable to the somersault cloud in Journey to the West.

If he were to remove the restrictions, he could travel thousands of miles in an instant with a single step, and he could also be used on both land and sea, and travel by air, sea, and land.

Travel a thousand miles in an instant, reach the whole country in a moment!

"arrive."

Having arrived at a secluded place, Duanmu Lian descended from the sky with Mebius.

Just as she was about to put Mebius down, she saw that the other's legs were trembling and weak, so Duanmu Lian continued to carry Mebius and led her into her base.

"Mébius, what level are you at in the field of biology right now?"

After putting down Mebius, Duanmu Lian began operating within the base.

As he took some items out of his spatial ring and began assembling them, he asked Mebius a question.

"I'm currently preparing for my doctoral entrance exam..."

Mebius stretched his limbs and explained his current situation.

Although she is young, she is already planning to take the doctoral entrance exam, and with her confidence in her knowledge level, she will definitely be able to pass.

"Okay, then stick one of those chips to your forehead and the other to the back of your head, take this pill, and go inside and sit down."

After assembling the device, Duanmu Lian handed Mebius two chips and a capsule, gesturing for her to attach them to her head and then sit down inside the device she had assembled.

Mebius took the chip and capsule, looking at the device in front of him, which resembled a cabin, with a puzzled expression.

"...Aren't we supposed to be studying right now?"

"Yes, this is a learning machine. Once you go in, it will accelerate your thinking speed, and your mind and consciousness will enter a virtual learning space to learn. As for the effect of the drug, it is to develop and activate the brain's potential, without any physical side effects."

"No physical side effects?"

Mebius picked up the capsule that shimmered with a strange, dazzling light and caught the key point in Duanmu Lian's words.

If there are no physical side effects, does that mean there are side effects in other aspects?

Duanmu Lian glanced indifferently at the capsule in Möbius's hand and said calmly:

"Because in essence, it can't be considered a side effect. It can turn mediocre people into smart people, with photographic memory, the ability to learn a language in minutes, and the comprehension to easily understand complex formulas and equations, etc. But these are not permanent. Once the effect wears off, people will go from being smart to not smart, and they will experience unbearable pain, anxiety, unease, anger, and so on."

Upon hearing this, Mebius immediately understood.

People can easily accept becoming smarter, but the psychological pain of turning a smart person into a mediocre one is hardly a true side effect.

This drug can give ordinary people super wisdom, but once the effects wear off, the fall from a seemingly omnipotent state back to a state of mediocrity is indeed hard to accept.

Mebius herself was a smart person; she didn't understand the mindset of mediocre people.

But she could understand that it would be extremely painful to make her less intelligent.

The medicine that Duanmu Lian gave her only played a supporting role.

He needs to accelerate Möbius's development to a fully mature state in the shortest possible time.

Chapter 41 Gear Automaton - Ryuu-zuki

Mebius stepped out of the learning machine's cabin, rubbing his forehead.

At that moment, she felt a little lightheaded and confused.

Because within the learning machine, she was as if she were under the spell of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, learning knowledge and conducting experiments for a very long time in a very realistic world.

When she is mentally exhausted, she can relax by doing various things in the study space.

However, as long as the learning objectives are not achieved, her mind is not allowed to leave the space created within the learning machine.

Now that the effects of the drug have worn off, Mebius has experienced the side effects firsthand after being removed from the learning machine.

First, she felt an intense sense of disconnect from reality, and for a moment she couldn't tell whether the world inside the learning machine was real or the world she was seeing right now.

After all, her consciousness had already spent several years inside the learning machine.

But in reality, it seems that not much time has passed at all.

Secondly, after the drug's effects wore off, Möbius found that his mental agility had diminished considerably, and his information processing speed had decreased significantly...

This feeling of 'becoming dumber' is indeed very unpleasant.

People with weak willpower might act like drug addicts, hoping to regain their former intelligence through drug use.

While Mebius wasn't exactly a man of exceptional mental fortitude, he was by no means incompetent either.

She simply took a deep breath, organized the knowledge and understanding in her mind, and then shifted from the perception of herself as a 'peerless genius' back to the perception of a 'genius'.

How long was I inside?

As soon as she came out, she saw Duanmu Lian fiddling with something with her back to her. There were no clocks around, so she had no choice but to ask her.

"9 minutes and 57 seconds, you came out pretty fast."

Duanmu Lian was carefully operating the atomic robot, tidying up the internal mechanisms of the mechanical puppet on the experimental table. When she heard Möbius's question, she answered without turning her head.

On the experimental table in front of him lay a doll in the shape of a young girl.

She looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, with strands of exquisite, rare silver hair covering her forehead. Her innocent and flawless appearance made one think of an angel.

A classic black dress draped over the slender and delicate body of the doll-like girl, making her look like a sleeping princess.

“I spent a full ten years in ‘another world,’ and waking up now feels like going back to that time.”

Hearing that only about ten minutes had passed in reality, Mebius muttered to herself with a complex and weary expression. She walked towards Duanmu Lian, and upon arriving beside her, she saw the other woman fiddling with a girl's doll. Curious, she asked:

"What is this? A robot!?"

The white-haired girl lying on the experimental table was beautiful, but her chest and stomach were exposed.

Literally, the entire front of the body was opened, revealing incredibly intricate internal components.

Mebius was immediately drawn to the structure inside the girl's body.

Because she discovered that the inside of this girl-shaped figure did not contain any high-tech equipment, only a dense array of gears!

very beautiful!

This was Möbius's first impression: countless gears of varying sizes filled the body of the young girl doll in a peculiar way.

They fit together perfectly and seamlessly, rotating and operating slowly and methodically, exuding elegance and splendor.

"Automaton".

Duanmu Lian didn't look at Möbius beside her. She used her mind to control the atomic robot and construct mechanisms inside the doll girl's body.

Upon hearing that it was an automaton, Möbius walked to the other side of the experimental table to examine the girl-like figure more closely, and asked curiously:

"Is it similar to the armed puppet Klein that I created in the future?"

Among the future information that Mebius knew, automata were not unusual.

Dr. EINSTEIN of the pre-civilization era Mu Continent created autonomous weapons to preserve humanity's fighting power.

By combining a programmed Soul Steel mimicry core with weapons, an autonomous combat robot is generated.

These robots inherit the combat data of the weapons, making them experienced warriors from the moment they are born.

Therefore, they are also called "armed dolls".

After the continent of Mu was destroyed by the Ninth Herrscher, this technology was inherited by the Firemoth.
