I loaded the dream game

Hubie nodded in response, looking curiously at this small room which was completely different from the "bathroom" in his memory.

Relying on her extraordinary observation and calculation abilities, she quickly identified the purpose of the mechanical devices in the bathroom.

It's amazing, the humans in this world...

She thought silently in her heart.

"By the way, I've been wanting to ask you since a while ago..." Xia Zhi's eyes fell on the two tail-like tubes behind the girl, which would respond to the girl's movements. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are these two tubes behind you?"

Why do you connect the wires behind your back... that's what she wanted to ask.

"this one?"

Hubie grabbed a pipe behind him and explained, "This is... Hubie's power source, the virtual spirit power corridor connecting the nerves..."

"But, it's useless now..."

"..."

In short, they are similar to some terms used in cosplay, right?

Xia Zhi thought to herself.

"Can you take it down?"

"No..." Hubie shook his head, thought for a moment and added: "But...it can be cut off..."

…Let’s just forget it, Xia Zhi thought.

Anyway, the girl will be able to take it off herself when she takes a shower later, right?

"The hot water is already on. Let Xiao Xiu wash first before you... Do you need my help with your hair?"

Her eyes fell on the girl's hood. Although it was covered, she could vaguely see from the gap that there was long hair underneath. It would probably be difficult to wash it.

Hubie shook his head first, then asked curiously: "Can... Xia Zhi come to help wash it?"

So... I am being disliked?

"...No." Xia Zhi said sullenly after being treated differently by the girl in front of her.

"This... also requires the consent of the family members?" Hubie continued to ask.

"...So be it."

Pity……

Hubie thought silently in his heart once again.

……

Not knowing about the friendly interaction between the two girls in the bathroom, Xia Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief after tidying up the utility room and making the bed, and temporarily returned to his room.

After closing and locking the door again, he came to the desk, put the books and notes on the desk aside, and took out a strange polyhedron from his personal universe and placed it on the desk.

It was a polyhedron with a pentagram on it, a star-shaped regular dodecahedron, shining with a bright blue light like stars under the light.

As for the true identity of this beautiful and exquisite polyhedron that looks like a work of art, it is the souvenir that Xia Zhi brought back from another world - it represents "omniscience and omnipotence", giving the holder the power above all else and the title of "the only god", and it is the ultimate conceptual device with the power to control everything in the world.

——「Star Cup」.

Chapter 200: The Newborn Universe

After all, it was something he had spent so much effort to obtain, so it was impossible for him to leave it in that world after just using it once, so Xia Zhi simply brought it back.

By the way, he also wanted to verify whether the Star Grail, which possesses omniscience and omnipotence, could still play a role in this world.

But unfortunately, the final answer is no.

Although holding the Star Cup in his hand, Xia Zhi did not feel the power he had felt in that world, the power to create and rewrite reality at will. It was as if this Star Cup, which was embodied by the concept of omniscience and omnipotence and represented all the great powers in the world, was just an ordinary, beautiful glass product with a peculiar shape in this world.

As a result, some of the settings that Xia Zhi had added to himself in that world using the power of the Star Grail also lost their effectiveness after coming to this world.

They also add to and modify the settings, but unlike the dream game, the ability of the Star Grail seems to be limited to that world.

This world does not recognize the authority of the Star Cup.

"pity……"

Xia Zhi thought with some regret.

Theoretically, it is possible to "restore" the Star Cup to such authority, but the number of dream points required is not much different from directly granting the concept of "omniscience and omnipotence 030". At least for him now, it is an absolutely astronomical figure.

After thinking about it, he simply placed the star cup on the table. If nothing else, it would look pretty good as a decoration.

Afterwards, he pulled out a white storage box from under the bed, put the several unusual items on his body back into it, and closed and sealed it.

After doing all this, he took a deep breath and his consciousness sank into his personal universe again.

"Then, let's begin!"

Looking at the bright galaxy in front of him, which appeared to be shining with stars on the surface but was actually dead silent, he snapped his fingers lightly.

The slowly expanding universe suddenly stagnated, and the next moment, it was as if a black hole with infinite gravitational force suddenly appeared in the center of space and time. The space and time structure of the entire universe collapsed in an instant, and all the galaxies and stars within sight were dragged by the collapsing space and time and "fell" towards the "center". In the end, even light could not escape the drag of space and time, and was stretched into a long-wavelength blue, then gradually darkened, until it finally disappeared completely.

At this point, time and space merged, entropy was reset, and the entire universe finally collapsed into an extremely small space-time singularity.

Then, it exploded again——

Based on the world data obtained from the previous dream copy, Xia Zhi made subtle adjustments to some tiny parameters of this most important moment in the early days of the universe.

Under his careful control, the universe began its initial evolution.

First, there was the Planck period when everything was united. After this short period, the universe underwent its first phase transition, and gravity was successfully separated from the four unified fundamental forces.

Soon, in less than one ten-millionth of an attosecond, the universe underwent a second phase transition, and the strong force was successfully separated, leaving only the weak force and the electroweak force bound together by the electromagnetic force.

At the same time, the universe during this period experienced an extremely short but extremely important inflation, which caused the entire universe to rapidly expand to 10^26 times its original size in less than one ten-millionth of an attosecond, and the temperature dropped to one hundred thousandth of its previous value.

After that, the expansion of space finally slowed down. The energy released by the inflation caused most of the elementary particles to begin to form. A large amount of quark-gluon plasma filled the entire universe. Various particle-antiparticle pairs continued to appear and quickly annihilated. However, under the deliberate manipulation of Xia Zhi, the number of positive particles that appeared was slightly more than that of antiparticles, causing the number of positive particles to gradually gain the upper hand.

Then, after the universe experienced another picosecond of time, the third phase transition of symmetry breaking finally occurred, causing the electromagnetic force and weak force to separate from each other.

From then on, the four basic forces finally became independent and began to perform their respective functions.

After that, as space continued to expand, the distance between the quarks in the universe (bidc) was rapidly pulled apart, the strong force of gluons connecting them completely collapsed, the quark confinement effect appeared, and two new quarks appeared at the two ends of the originally broken quarks, re-forming two new quark pairs, and protons and neutrons composed of quarks were born.

Then, as the temperature and density continued to drop, various leptons began to form, and the originally produced neutrons, protons and other baryons also formed the initial atomic nuclei after undergoing nuclear synthesis. The prototype of matter was finally basically determined.

Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and readjusted the flow of time in his personal universe.

Because after that, the speed of the universe's evolution will slow down completely, and the large number of high-energy photons will frequently collide with atomic nuclei and electrons that are still in a free state, making it impossible to form the initial atoms.

It would take about 240,000 years before stable atoms actually began to form in large quantities.

Taking into account that frequent changes in the speed of time may affect the space-time structure that has been carefully adjusted, it is best to make as few changes as possible. Xia Zhi simply temporarily set the speed of time to a ratio of 10,000 years per hour, and consider increasing the speed of time after this important period of material formation has passed.

After doing all this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt at ease.

Compared to the past, this creation process can be regarded as the one that took him the most time and effort. Although it seems that a lot of things happened, if you really count it, it actually took less than ten minutes. If the speed of time had not been adjusted, Xia Zhi would not have been able to make so many targeted adjustments to various parameters and evolution in such a short time.

"Leave it alone for now and come back to check it tomorrow."

Thinking this way, Xia Zhi exited his personal universe and returned to his room.

Come to think of it, I always feel like I have forgotten something?

Xia Zhi thought to himself, his eyes fell on the several notebooks brought by Kato Megumi that he pushed aside, and he fell silent.

The time now… is already half past nine in the evening, and he hasn’t even read a single word of the “remedial” lessons he promised.

...Or, how about taking a day off tomorrow as well?

Xia Zhi thought to himself.

But... what reason should I use? It's such a headache...

God, if you can hear me, please let the school explode tomorrow.

"Really...can't you make some more realistic wishes?"

A crisp voice came from behind, causing Xia Zhi's body to pause slightly.

"No matter how unrealistic a wish is, it may come true... Who can say for sure about that kind of thing?"

He turned around and looked at the blonde girl who appeared behind him at some point, and asked with a smile:

"…What do you think, my Lady Suwako?"

Chapter 201: Farewell Encounter

Her neck-length straw-blonde hair was covered by a straw hat, and her hair on both sides was tied up with red ribbons into two delicate double knots. She wore a blue and white-based casual dress with a frog pattern on it, white velvet over-the-knee socks, and a pair of brown leather shoes that were somewhat different from the slightly classical style of her upper body.

The girl who appeared in front of Xia Zhi at this moment was no different from the one he first met, but she was slightly different from the familiar image of the girl in his memory, which gave him a subtle sense of time and space dislocation.

Bowl……

This sentence involuntarily emerged in Xia Zhi's mind.

He shook his head, his eyes fell on the strange hat with two eyeballs on the girl's head, and he felt a sense of emotion:

You finally found your true self.

"Why... why are you staring at my hat?" Suwako asked in an unnatural tone with her face slightly flushed and her hands pressing on her hat.

Xia Zhi was a little confused: You were not shy when I stared at you before, why did you become shy when I stared at the hat?

Sure enough, this hat is your true self, right?

"Is it alive?"

Xia Zhi walked forward curiously and poked the eyes on the hat with his hand, which attracted a slightly annoyed gaze from the other party.

"Is that kind of thing important?"

The girl turned her head slightly, looking a little unhappy.

"I'm just a little curious."

Xia Zhi touched the girl's head through her hat. The feeling he felt was not the soft hair he was familiar with, but the rough texture of the hat. It felt quite novel.

Then, he suddenly felt as if he had touched something hard.

"I always carry this with me..."

Seeing the puzzled look on his face, the girl lifted the brim of her hat slightly, revealing a blue-green crystal hairpin underneath.

"Because I promised, I will cherish it."

What you wish for will be granted one day - has this blessing been fulfilled?

The girl didn't know, but what she knew clearly was that she had indeed gotten what she had expected.

Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether such a blessing will come true or not.

"Welcome back, my sir god." Xia Zhi rubbed her head again and said with a smile.

"But...how did you find this place?"

He remembered that he didn't seem to tell the girl his home address, right?

"I didn't... come here on purpose..." Suwako turned her head away and said with a slightly red face: "I just... came out for a casual stroll..."

"But there's nothing I can do. Your presence is too conspicuous. Before I knew it, ..."

So that's it, this is the excuse. Xia Zhi suddenly realized.

Without exposing the girl's little thoughts, he changed the subject and asked, "So... would you like something to drink? How about black tea?"

"Xiazhi, don't you dislike drinking tea?"

"Except for iced tea."

The girl nodded thoughtfully, then shook her head and said, "But... No, I just said I wanted to go out for a walk. If I go back too late... Sanae will definitely be worried."

That's true, Xia Zhi thought, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, people with families are different."
