Kevin, but he is a male mother in Xingtie with little Ai Li

Later, yes, later! Black Tower still wants the future!

This is her true purpose!

Everyone knows Sima Zhao’s heart!

It was unknown whether Kevin had heard the hidden meaning, but this did not prevent the fact that there was such a successful person with a long career in business beside him. Topa immediately stood between the two of them and formally defended his contractor: "In the future? No, no, no, Ms. Heita, I don't think Mr. Kevin has fulfilled that necessary obligation."

"From the perspective of the formal contract, this test is actually an obligation that you, Ms. Heita, should fulfill to the 'company'. As an equal partner of the 'company', Mr. Kevin theoretically has no legitimate relationship with you, so naturally there is no similar obligation."

After saying this, Topa suddenly felt as if something was missing. After she twitched her fingers and thought for a moment, she immediately added, "Of course, there is no improper relationship at all."

As a qualified debt handler, Topak knows very well how to distance himself from others in many cases.

"What?! You...you!" Looking at Topa who suddenly appeared in front of him, Heita gritted his teeth and said, "But you don't have any reason to stop me from cooperating with others, right?"

If this guy hadn't said anything, she might have succeeded just now!

"Well, that's true. But Ms. Heita, you shouldn't ask me, you should ask Mr. Kevin." Having said this, Topa turned sideways to reveal Kevin behind him, and made a gesture of invitation to the other party.

The opportunity was clearly right in front of her, but Heita inexplicably panicked in an instant - it was precisely because she was really interested in everything about Kevin that she was very scared. She was afraid that if she asked, the other party would refuse her without hesitation, what should she do?

Before making such an important decision, everyone will inevitably have similar hesitation and confusion, and Ms. Heita is no exception.

"Well, then you...then are you willing to..."

This stumbling tone really makes people wonder if there is something wrong with the puppet's language module, which causes Black Tower to speak so strangely.

Unfortunately, before she could finish her words, Kevin shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't think I can agree to your proposal."

"Wha...what?!"

“It’s good research, but I’m not in the mood to go looking for that much history, so it’s not a very productive proposition for me.”

Kevin explained it very clearly. If this was a training device that could really improve his strength, then he would certainly be willing to come. But unfortunately, this is not the case.

Just when the Black Tower finally fell silent and everyone thought that the topic was about to end, the other party suddenly came forward and hugged Kevin's thigh, causing everything to quickly develop in an unknown direction -

"I beg you."

"...?"

"Hei... Miss Heita, where did she learn this skill of begging people?!"

Little Paduo felt shocked, but she heard Ruan Mei's voice coming from the communication that had not been closed: "No, I never taught her this."

Before Kevin could speak again, Heita added another weight to the scale: "Or, do you want anything else? The entire space station is mine, you can pick whatever you want."

But that being said...why is Ms. Black Tower's gaze drifting towards Ester? !

Under such an attack, Kevin finally covered his head helplessly and said, "Okay, okay... I can promise you to do some tests when it is not necessary. But the price is that I have to share enough information from you."

At least Kevin could understand with certainty that these guys in the genius club definitely had a lot of secrets about most things.

"No problem, absolutely no problem, no problem at all!"

The moral bottom line of her Black Tower is very high. When has she ever gone back on her word?

Chapter 247 It doesn’t matter. I can also beg you?

Even today, Kevin believes that he should never forget the importance of information. If humans back then could understand the true nature of Honkai to a certain extent, perhaps... they would have been able to break through the endless cycle of fate in their previous civilization?

Even if you have the strength to be the best in the world, there is no way to be sure that there is not such a ridiculous weapon - that can kill with one blow as long as it touches it, right?

In a sense, agreeing to Black Tower's proposal was not a bad thing. At least this genius in the club could provide Kevin with information that he would not be able to access on his own, and it was also possible for him to connect with more people in the club.

Kevin had learned one thing a long time ago from his interactions with those smart people, that is, never try to understand these geniuses with your own thinking, otherwise there would not be so many scientists who would be called crazy.

——Seeing that the black tower stood up directly after getting his consent, as if the one just hugged in someone else's lap was not his own, Kevin really tried hard to find some strong reasons for her in his heart.

"Look, Miss Topa, now the negotiation between the two of us has come to a successful conclusion. And I think if nothing unexpected happens, there will be no problem with the test of the simulated universe, right?" Black Tower returned to its original appearance and spoke to Topa.

I believe everyone can see it. Even without talking about the extremely real feeling in the simulated universe, the fact that it can simulate the existence of various star gods so realistically is enough for all forces in the universe to attach great importance to it.

After all, just like Klipper, who advocates "protection" in the "company", the major forces in the universe can basically be attributed to the subordinates of a certain star god.

"Please trust my professionalism, Ms. Heita. I will definitely report what I have seen and learned to the top management of the 'company' truthfully."

Topa was not dissatisfied with the difference in attitude between Heita and before. He just asked curiously, "But, Ms. Heita, are you really not going to seduce me a little? I can also say a few good words for you then, okay?"

"Really? If you can multiply the amount of money the company transfers next time, then it doesn't matter if I come to you for help. I'm serious." Although she said so, Heita showed an indifferent attitude, and the expression on her face didn't even change.

But even so, Kevin had to start to doubt whether this guy was really saying that he had a corresponding moral bottom line.

Before he became what he is now, Dr. Mobius always claimed that he had a very solid moral bottom line and there were certain things he would never do.

"Okay, okay, there's no need for you to stay in my office all the time. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be here for the next ten hours to modify the code for the simulated universe. Can you please give me a quieter environment?"

As expected, after achieving his goal, Heita immediately started to drive people out of his room, and even waved his hands impatiently.

But think about it, no worker can laugh successfully and naturally in the first few minutes of work.

"Well, since Ms. Heita still has things to do, how about I take you all to visit the various wonders in the space station? Or...if you want to rest for a while, I have already prepared guest rooms here, so you can check in anytime without any problem."

Fortunately, the Black Tower still has a smart and capable stationmaster like Esta. She immediately stepped forward to politely lead everyone out of the office, and then patiently asked for everyone's opinions.

And there is no doubt that little Ai Li raised her little hand at the first moment——

"Look at the strange things, look at the strange things! We are going to see the strange things!"

Strictly speaking, the so-called rare objects are those collections in the Black Tower Space Station that are so rare that there is almost only one such copy.

Strictly speaking, the Black Tower Space Station was not built as a research site, but simply to provide a good 'storage room' for the valuable collections that she had found but which she had temporarily lost interest in researching.

But as time went by, this space station gradually evolved into a special place that combines the nature of a museum and a research institute under Esta's management.

After all, although these collections were collected by the Black Tower and studied by her for a while, most of them were ruthlessly abandoned by Ms. Black Tower when she lost interest in them just halfway through the research... She didn't even leave behind any research notes.

So strictly speaking, most of the collections in the space station are still a complete unsolved mystery, which gives the staff in the space station some room for survival - of course, the research projects in the space station are not limited to these collections, but are more comprehensive.

To be honest, Kevin was actually somewhat interested in seeing the strange things in the storage room, but since Alicia said so...

"..."

Little Ellie soon noticed that Kevin looked a little strange, so she immediately waved her hands in protest, "This is not just for fun! I'm sure I'm not the only one who is curious about those collections!"

"Right, right?"

Little Ellie immediately turned her gaze towards Paddo and Topa beside her, and blinked her eyes very hard, trying to show her cuteness to the fullest.

Cats are always very curious, so when hearing about these seemingly unsolved mysteries, Paddy was definitely more curious than little Ellie, but she didn't dare and didn't want to rebel against her boss Kevin.

Thanks to Miss Topa who successfully accepted Little Ellie's charm skills, she said to Kevin: "I don't think there's anything wrong with going to see those collections. Children should always be allowed to gain more knowledge so that they can have a better future."

"Besides, this is my first time at Ms. Black Tower's space station... I'm actually quite interested in those strange objects."

In a sense, these collections can be called priceless treasures - after all, the value of the collections is always given by the collectors.

"Ugh......"

But then again, Kevin doesn't dare to expect any future for little Ellie now.

If nothing unexpected happens, this child will never want to grow up, and he may really have to raise a naughty child for the rest of his life.

Chapter 248 So why not ask the magical conch?

"Strictly speaking, the collections in the space station are indeed some very wonderful things. Some of them can even exert power beyond human imagination. These are things that cannot be achieved by any kind of technology."

"But... I think you should understand that if this power can be used in a certain scenario to create value, it is very likely that it will not be thrown into the space station by Ms. Black Tower as an ordinary collection."

In order to prevent people with ulterior motives from eyeing the space station, Estelle would always give a similar introduction before introducing others to visit the collections and wonders.

In fact, there are still quite a few of those strange objects that have various magical powers. But from the perspective of Ms. Black Tower, she doesn't think highly of these little gadgets.

But if these collections were simply placed on that planet, they might very well be regarded as some kind of priceless treasures, thus attracting countless people to scramble for them, and a bloody storm could easily unfold.

Long experience has taught her that it is absolutely necessary to hide one's shortcomings to a certain extent.

It's a pity that she seemed to have forgotten that there was a knowledgeable guy among the people in front of her -

"Ms. Esta, there is absolutely no need for you to be so secretive. As far as I know, there was once a cosmic-level tycoon who wanted to buy Ms. Black Tower's collection at a high price, but the result was... Ms. Black Tower didn't even bother to pay attention to him."

As he spoke, Topa spread out his hands slightly and said softly: "Even though these are just collections that Ms. Black Tower has temporarily lost interest in researching, she still thinks that these things are more important than simple credit points. Although... there may be some ideas in it that she doesn't care about money at all."

You mean the credit points in the account? Ms. Heita is a super negative woman whose credit points are always negative. You don't need to expect her to pay you much money.

But if there was an asset assessment, she would definitely be at the top of the wealth list. After all, even if we don't count other industries, she has more than one storage room like this space station.

But then again...isn't a financial situation like this a little too abnormal?

"In fact, she is not as powerful as you said, Miss Topa. Strictly speaking...it seems that it is because Ms. Heita's personality is indeed a bit weird, right?"

Esta sighed and said, "Although there are indeed a few rare items in the storage room that can be of great use in some aspects, most of them are only of collection value and have some research value... The first storage room is in front of us. Miss Topa can study those rare items by herself."

After she finished speaking, Esta placed her hand lightly on the right side of the door, opening the door in front of everyone.

"Strange... the security here doesn't seem to be very strict?"

Perhaps out of some weird professional ethics, this was what Padu imagined the first moment she saw the door open?

After the door was no longer covering them, a huge storage room suddenly appeared before their eyes. Perhaps for the sake of safety, each collection was separated by a considerable distance and sealed with some special transparent material, allowing these items to be perfectly displayed to everyone.

There is even a micro terminal underneath each collection so that visitors can check out the research and history about it.

This doesn't look like a treasure room in the strict sense at all. It looks more like... a museum?

As if she had seen everyone's doubts, Esta immediately explained, "Sometimes, in order to ease expenses, the space station does open up museum business, but more often it is to attract external staff to choose to join the space station."

"Also, there are many magical objects whose abilities really sound powerful but are completely useless... like this conch."

Esta took a few steps forward and clicked on a display stand placed on a conch shell for everyone to see. She allowed everyone to observe the information registered on it.

[A clean conch shell, covered with star-ring patterns, you can hear distant jokes told in the shell. As long as you can hold back your laughter, you can slowly gain the power bestowed by the existence in the shell. Those who try to gain power in this way will eventually die in depression due to their unrivaled power. It is said that three users are still alive in the world, living in seclusion. ]

"It sounds amazing, right? But the reality is that no officer has been able to successfully gain power from it so far. And the slowness here is really, really slow... According to the officers' research, the time can probably be counted in hundreds of years at least."

With so much time spent in earnestly pursuing strength, he must have already reached a considerable level. What is the point of using such a broken conch?

"No, no, no, this thing is great! It's perfect for this big ice cube! I haven't seen this guy laugh in tens of thousands of years!"

But suddenly, little Ai Li fell directly under the booth, wishing she could take out the conch directly.

Of course, strength is secondary. Little Ellie just wants to see Kevin laugh.

But obviously, it is unlikely that other people would agree with her statement - not to mention that she now looks like a child and has not laughed for tens of thousands of years. Is there really anyone who would choose to believe such a statement?

They should doubt whether the two of them have really lived for tens of thousands of years, or why little Ai Li still looks like a child after tens of thousands of years?

Fortunately, everyone thought it was just an exaggeration of the child, and no one explained it. However, when everyone looked at Kevin, they saw him shaking his head silently.

"I have always believed that any power comes with a price and responsibility... you just don't realize it yet."

So, is this an admission that he hardly ever laughs?

And who knows, wouldn't the side effect of this conch gaining power be to cause all the hair to fall out bit by bit?

"Yes, that's very true. In fact, I don't mind using something of unknown origin to gain power. Just thinking about it makes people feel suspicious." Estelle nodded in agreement.

What unrivaled power? Clearly she didn't need that.

Chapter 249: Wings of Wind and Broken Blades

"I'm sorry, everyone. I may have to be away for a while... Most matters in the space station require the presence of the station commander, so I can't be away for too long."

"You are all honored guests of the Lady of the Black Tower. You may freely visit the rare objects here. Some of them can even be taken out for close inspection... In short, please do not cause any trouble!"

After personally leading everyone to visit a few rare objects, Esther suddenly received a notification from the communication and had to wave her hand to say goodbye to a few people after explaining some precautions, and then quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

No one knew what this job had brought to Miss Esta. According to the situation when they just arrived at the space station, not only did the Black Tower not pay her even a dime of salary, but the entire space station was a huge economic black hole that required her to constantly put money into it.

Maybe, this is something that ordinary people can't understand at all...the joy that rich girls have when they spend money?

No, Little Ai Li really doesn't envy her at all. Thinking back to when her wife Eden was still alive, she never worried about money.

"......"
