Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

“Lykuergos, Lygus.”

"Well done, Lagushi." Black Tower crossed his arms, his eyes filled with disdain.

"You don't actually think I'm asking about a name, do you?"

Lai Gushi frankly stated:

"I'm sorry, I don't have the authority to explain more to you."

"But standards are always flexible."

"I can reveal one piece of information without violating the ultimate agreement."

"As you might expect, this is the entrance to Onphalus."

"Now, please go back, madam."

Lai Gushi raised his hand and stretched it out towards Onphalus.

"Unfortunately, Onphalos is not a world you should be in."

"No matter how many great achievements you have made, this place will not easily open its doors."

Looking at the respectful yet somewhat arrogant robot before him, Black Tower calmly said:

"You seem to know me very well. Then you should know why I should listen to you?"

Lai Gushi shook his head and sighed slightly at these words.

"Your reaction is exactly as I calculated."

"It seems that even after a long period of observation, my assessment of human nature remains accurate."

"You possess a beautiful thirst for knowledge."

"But my answer will not change. Madam, I suggest you return the way you came in the best of my ability."

Black Tower remained unmoved by Lai Gushi's order to leave.

His tone remained aloof:

"Let's assume, Mr. Legus."

"If I didn't have such a good temper, if I insisted on seeing the secrets behind you..."

"—How do you plan to dissuade me from this willful idea?"

Chapter 1497 Who is afraid of whom?

"..."

Lai Gushi remained silent for a while, carefully examining the Black Tower.

"Within the scope defined by the ultimate protocol, I have 178244 logical chains that can be used to persuade you."

"After filtering, I believe that only three of them are needed to achieve the result I want."

"Oh?" Black Tower became interested. "Tell me about it."

Lai Gushi remained very calm:

"Firstly, for reasons that cannot be explained, Onphalus is an absolutely closed celestial body."

"There is no way to help you get in except by me."

"Secondly: If you plan—as you just implied—to coerce me into coercing you into cooperating under the pretext of declaring war, please be aware..."

"Like you, I have also been dazzled by the wisdom of the mind, and I solemnly declare to you that in extreme circumstances, our destruction is mutually assured."

“…Oh?” Black Tower fell into deep thought.

"No wonder I couldn't find the back door after scanning the whole place."

"The security protocols on you are comparable to those on screws. Interesting."

Lygus continued:

"I suppose you'd like to hear about the third logical chain?"

“Of course, why not?” Black Tower tilted his head.

Lai Gushi calmly recounted:

Thirdly: Even if you use every means at your disposal to try and find a way to break through my defenses...

"But once you learn of the serious consequences this will inevitably lead to, you will also give up trying it."

"After all, in your long life—even if you may not admit it—[conscience] plays an extremely important role."

"Huh?" Black Tower chuckled dismissively.

"What an arrogant robot."

"Do you think you can understand me based on your own limited calculations?"

"But since we've come this far, let's talk about it: what are the consequences?"

Upon hearing this, Lai Gushi slowly began to speak:

"It concerns the third destiny that binds Onphalus, the one that you and your friends have yet to unravel...destruction."

"If you ignore my warnings and insist on going your own way—"

"You will shatter the chains of an Extinction Lord, whose wrath will engulf the galaxy."

"..."

"interesting."

soon.

The Black Tower's data spirit disconnected and temporarily returned to the train carriage.

Inside Yan Huan's room, Hei Ta opened his eyes, seemingly lost in thought.

Upon seeing her return, Walter asked curiously:

"Ms. Black Tower, have you made any discoveries?"

Black Tower slowly turned around, blinked, and couldn't help but mutter:

"What connection do you have with the path of destruction? This Onpharos is indeed no ordinary person..."

Upon hearing this, Walter pondered:

"destroy?"

"You mean that the third fate that binds Onpharos is actually destruction?"

“Yeah, exactly what it sounds like.” Black Tower shrugged.

"The machine head guarding the gate told me that there is also a Great Lord of Annihilation being imprisoned inside Onphalus."

"If we don't do something, Ms. Yan Huan will probably be locked in a stalemate with the forces of destruction again..."

"Hopefully, his current stats are enough to withstand the command."

"Okay, I'm going back."

Seeing the Black Tower walk towards the space station portal, Sunday couldn't help but ask:

Are you planning to abandon the aid?

"?" Upon hearing this, Black Tower turned around and glanced at Sunday.

"Young man, why do you always talk in such a sarcastic or sarcastic way?"

Do I look like someone who's afraid of the Great Lord of Annihilation?

"Since I, Black Tower, have promised to provide assistance, I will never go back on my word."

"Besides... what is the Great Lord of Annihilation anyway?"

"Even if the Star God of Destruction comes, he will eventually become my experimental subject."

"You guys, come with me. We're going to find Screws to discuss the next steps in the intrusion plan."

……

Black Tower Space Station.

After a period of time, the power supply here was restored to normal.

The staff members who had finished their shifts returned to their work posts.

"Ugh, I really don't want to go to work..."

The chubby clerk lay on the keyboard, feeling the keyboard and screen grow increasingly cold.

"What exactly is the data that Ms. Black Tower sent, and why does it require so many people to monitor it together...?"

"And we also have to write an 8,000-word report every day, which is too abstract."

"That's how bosses are. They just assign tasks, but the employees have to think about a lot more..." another clerk reluctantly agreed.

"Everyone, please cheer up."

Aista entered the office cabin carrying a large bag of drinks, looking serious.

"This incident involves the Extinction Lord, and if not handled properly, it could be extremely dangerous for the entire galaxy."

"???" The staff members sat up abruptly, staring wide-eyed at Estella by the door.

"What? The Great Lord of Annihilation?"

"Station Master... this isn't right! Last time the antimatter legion invaded, we almost met our maker..."

"If it weren't for Huan-ge being there, I could have sent that Doomsday Beast away."

"Haven't the antimatter legions killed enough people in the universe?"

"Please don't panic," Estella reassured them.

"Mr. Yan Huan has already gone to the birthplace of the Great Lord of Annihilation to explore, and they need our assistance..."
