"Row!"
She paused, then, as if remembering something, added a sentence.
"Don't put anything in the pastries."
She tilted her head slightly and gestured in Lin Si's direction.
"I suspect this little guy could summon a star god at any time."
Lin Si, sitting in her wheelchair, was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
Nguyen Mai did not answer his question immediately.
Her gaze lingered on Lin Si for a moment, as if observing something, before she turned to the Black Tower and nodded slightly.
"understood."
Her voice was calm, carrying a sense of composure that "I already understand the situation."
Lin Si watched the exchange of glances between the two women, and went over the information in her mind several times.
What's the meaning?
Does this genius like to add something to his food?
Well, thinking about it, that makes sense. After all, he's the most unconventional genius in the world.
Also, what does it mean to "summon the Star God at any time"?
Everything he is experiencing now, 'summoning a gaze from the star god,' is perfectly aligned with the right timing, location, and people.
If he really has that much ability, he'll push wheelchairs sideways from now on.
If you don't like someone, just go up to them and slap them!
Really!
He wasn't joking!
"Ms. Black Tower,"
He spoke up.
"What do you mean by saying I can 'summon the Star God at any time'?"
Heita didn't answer his question directly. She leaned against the table, as if considering her words, and then tossed out another question.
"Fu Li, did he personally send down a cone of light or something?"
Lin Si was slightly taken aback.
He has indeed encountered similar situations in this regard.
"I'm not sure if that's the Flowing Light Heavenly Lord."
He answered truthfully.
"But a light cone, I have indeed seen one fall from the sky."
He paused for a moment.
How did you know that?
Hei Ta and Nguyen Mai exchanged a glance.
That look was brief, but Lin Si understood its meaning: "See, I wasn't wrong, was I?"
Nguyen Mai nodded slightly, as if confirming a previous speculation made by the Black Tower.
Hei Ta turned his head back and looked at Lin Si.
"Little guy, didn't you say before that you had a wish to actively guide tens of millions or more lives?"
Lin Si nodded.
"Ah."
"Those desires will always surround you as long as your power has not expired."
"It's just that Fu Li sealed it away with a light cone. You can use it anytime you want."
Lin Si was stunned for a moment.
"...My authority?"
His voice carried a hint of surprise, as if to say, "I really didn't expect this."
"You were even able to deduce this?"
Black Tower rolled his eyes, as if to say, "What's so surprising about that?"
"Any genius can see it at a glance."
She paused for a moment,
"Star gods can be guided by mortals."
“The description of ‘wishes’ is different for each destiny. Some are willpower, some are memory, some are faith, and some are belief.”
"As long as the wishes corresponding to one's destiny reach a certain level, the wishes can be delivered to the ears of the corresponding star god."
"In general, the star gods will respond to these wishes in such cases."
"Because they have no other thoughts than their destiny."
She paused here, as if leaving a suitable ending to her statement.
"So you can use that cone of light to summon the Star God at any time."
"But it's not certain which one you'll summon."
"It can only be said that whichever of the wishes you have the most at the time will be the star god you can summon when you want to use this ability."
"For example, if the desire to protect is the strongest at that time, then you should be able to summon the Guardian; if the desire for revenge is the strongest, then you should be able to summon the Hunter, and so on."
Nguyen Mai nodded in agreement, her tone conveying a calm "I agree with this view."
"The desire that emerges in times of desperation is the most precious."
"But your power can help them when their lives are in dire straits."
"Therefore, the most precious wishes of life will flow to you."
"........."
Lin Si remained silent for a long time.
He sat in his wheelchair, his gaze fixed on the plate of pastries that were still slightly steaming, but his attention was clearly elsewhere.
After he understood everything, he only had one thought.
What's the meaning?
Dude, you're a Holy Grail, right?
The vessel of wishes?
He looked up, glanced at the Black Tower, then at Nguyen Mai, and spoke in a tone that said, "I need to confirm this."
"So what's this situation called?"
Black Tower thought for a moment, as if searching for a precise explanation.
"This situation should be..."
She tilted her head slightly.
"You are a cosmic-level humanoid self-propelled 'star core'."
That's roughly the idea.
"Star Core?"
Lin Si frowned slightly upon hearing this.
"That's right!"
Black Tower nodded.
“A star core is something that can carry and fulfill wishes, and your situation is very similar to that of a star core.”
She paused, as if remembering something, and added another sentence.
"By the way, that little gray-haired creature also has a star core inside its body."
"........."
Lin Si fell silent again.
good good!
No wonder Belloberg's star core called him "uncle," and Star also called him "uncle" when they first met. So he really met an "elder," right?
He gathered his thoughts and then asked another question.
"But Lady Black Tower, isn't the Star Core Nanuk's creation?"
Black Tower shook his head.
"I thought so too before I met you."
"But after seeing you, it's hard to say whether the Star Core is actually Nanuk's creation."
(At this time, the Black Tower was unaware that the Star Core was a harmonious creation.)
She shrugged casually.
But who knows?
"Perhaps because of Nanook's compassion, life can fulfill its last wish before destruction arrives?"
Lin Si did not respond immediately after hearing this.
He sat in his wheelchair, looking at the plate of pastries on the table that still smelled sweet, then at Black Tower's smiling face, and then at Nguyen Mai's calm and focused eyes.
The amount of information received today was a bit too dense.
Just as he was about to say something, a sound suddenly came from the end of the Black Tower.
She glanced down and then clicked her tongue softly.
"alright."
She looked up at Lin Si.
“I have something to take care of. You and Nguyen Mai can talk first.”
She turned and walked towards the door. When she reached the door, she glanced at Ruan Mei again, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she just waved her hand and then quickly left.
The door closed behind her.
The enclosed compartment fell silent again.
Ruan Mei withdrew her gaze, looked at Lin Si, smiled slightly, then picked up a pastry from the table and handed it to him.
"Mr. Lin Si".
Her voice was gentle.
"Would you like to try one?"
Chapter 359 Are these solutions that a normal person could come up with?
"Ms. Nguyen Mai".
Lin Si took the pastry, hesitated for less than half a second, and then took a bite.
The pastry was much more delicate than he had expected. It was soft, slightly sweet, and had an indescribable floral and fruity aroma. When it melted on his tongue, it was as warm and smooth as honey that had been sun-dried.
He chewed twice, swallowed, and then nodded.
"Your cooking skills are really good!"
He praised it sincerely.
Ruan Mei's baking skills are now comparable to Uncle Gao's.
