Bengtie: My death fueled their madness.

Upon regaining consciousness, Qi Zhimu looked at the two people in the Black Tower with a probing gaze.

"If my judgment and understanding are correct, the initiator of that attack was an Annihilation Lord."

Black Tower speculated, then changed the subject.

"As for Ruan Mei that you saw... that's a slice of her. Xing also encountered it during the first test. If you didn't come into contact with her slice, you don't need to worry about it."

Qi Zhimu asked curiously, "What if we've had contact before?"

"The port she's in charge of will receive records of your contact. Putting aside her, she's only responsible for R&D and maintenance. When it's not her turn, she doesn't care about anything," Black Tower replied casually.

Screw Gumu: "Conclusion: Mr. Zhimu's simulated event is a modern war: the sea patrol knight assassinates Zhu Luo."

"Strange, the timeline is set between 1380 and 1390 in the Amber Period, but it has entered the events of the 2148th Period..."

Black Tower didn't quite understand, so he sent Stephen a message asking if there was a problem with the Global Locust Plague Project.

Stephen conducted a remote inspection and quickly reached a conclusion.

The problem isn't with the project, but with Qi Zhimu.

When Qi Zhimu entered the simulated universe, his radio frequency broke the original setting, causing the timeline to become chaotic.

His consciousness left the simulated universe not because of a fatal attack, but because the underlying protective code cleared him out.

Otherwise, his radio frequency would break through more underlying frameworks, thus causing everyone's hard work to be wasted.

Black Tower and Screw Gum weren't entirely baffled by this conclusion.

To put Stephen's explanation in plain language: The simulated universe could not withstand the causal chain of the simulated factors, which were mainly composed of Qi Zhimu, causing the running program and logic to malfunction and attempt to save itself.

That's truly astonishing.

This is a simulated universe developed by a group of geniuses, and its massive computing power is so great that even the geniuses themselves can handle it!

Not long ago, the Star Core Hunter Silver Wolf threatened to destroy the simulated universe, but he actually doesn't have that ability.

Qi Zhimu was neither an envoy nor a star god, and there should have been no reason for him to venture into the simulated universe, yet the fact remains that entering the simulated universe brought enormous risks.

"Black Tower, before we figure out what's going on, I suggest we stop letting Mr. Zhimu conduct the simulated universe test," Screw Gum suggested.

"Let's put that aside for now, Screw. Don't you sense the problem?" Black Tower fell into deep thought.

"Speaking."

"The global locust plague is a separate sub-project, not connected to the database of the original simulated universe. In theory, even if the timeline is affected and becomes chaotic, it will not deviate from the 1380-1390 epoch."

"Hmm... his explanation does not fully encompass the answer to the question."

The simulation and birth of the Star Gods were handled jointly by Ruan Mei and Hei Ta.

One person established the destiny factor and the simulation factor, and another person assisted in anchoring the timeline. They tested them initially and there were no problems.

"The entire process of the Star God's ascension and fall, the hunting and destruction hadn't even begun yet, it's completely distorted."

Hei Ta met Qi Zhimu's innocent gaze, and a bold guess flashed through his mind.

Could it be that some causal chain he carried was accidentally read by the project's main program, which led to the Battle of Zhuluo's Fall?

After all—he is currently a patrolling sea knight.

"What are your thoughts on this simulation?" Hei Ta asked Qi Zhimu.

"No." Qi Zhimu simply shrugged.

He may exist in the timeline of that bloody battle, but it is definitely not in this life, nor in the previous life.

Unless he was one of the patrolling knights who assassinated Zhu Luo in that lifetime, it's unlikely that he would coincidentally walk the same path again.

It seems I need to find some time to ask the Undying Path what unknown things happened during that bloody battle, and who Tirnan really is.

Unable to continue with the simulated universe, Qi Zhimu returned to his post.

Heita casually sent Xing a message, asking her to come back to the space station when she had time.

I didn't have high hopes, but to my surprise, the latter actually had time and said he could come back today.

Hey, when you're about to fall asleep, someone brings you a pillow.

It seems that simulating the universe is best left to someone who can play the role of Akivilli; it will be much more efficient.

However, just as a smile appeared on Black Tower's face, he was rendered speechless by the news Star sent next.

During the expedition, she was stabbed in the chest. There were no doctors on the train and the medical care at the expedition site was relatively backward. She asked her to arrange for a doctor from the space station to help examine her.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Wouldn't any attending physician in the medical department be more than capable?

"Fail the course yourself, and Estella will reimburse you for the cost," Black Tower simply said.

……

Half a system hour later, in the cabin where the medical department was located.

"Sigh, that gun went straight through my chest. For a moment I thought I was going to die, but in the blink of an eye, I was still alive."

Xing lay on the examination table, excitedly recounting her first pioneering journey to Qi Zhimu, with a huge lance standing beside her.

She experienced a thrilling adventure on the icy planet called Yalilo-VI.

The various conspiracies and perils are described vividly.

"...You were pierced through the chest a few days ago, weren't you?" Qi Zhimu seemed to have thought of something.

"Three days ago, Amber King glanced at me and then slammed his hammer down hard," Xing said truthfully.

Qi Zhimu's expression immediately turned serious.

The guardian star god Krippar, also known as the Amber King, has never stopped forging special crystal walls in this galaxy.

Each time He strikes the hammer, it signifies the end of one Amber Period and the beginning of a new Amber Period.

It's no coincidence that the day of the falling hammer glanced at the stars at the same time.

Perhaps this humanoid self-propelled star core is bound by a cause and effect that could affect the fate of the galaxy.

Thinking of this, Qi Zhimu became even more serious.

"Put away your lance first. I need to activate the full dialysis machine to give you a thorough examination."

"Okay."

After a long while, Qi Zhimu came to a conclusion.

"Doctor, am I alright?"

"Congratulations, Ms. Xing, you are in excellent health and there are no problems whatsoever."

"As expected, I'm that strong. I was stabbed through the chest and I'm completely fine. I told you that March and the others were overly worried." Xing curled the corners of her mouth.

Qi Zhimu couldn't help but smile and correct her thinking.

"I suspect it was your will at that time that resonated with the Preservation Creed, attracting the Amber King's attention, and He granted you protection."

"Perhaps, Danheng also leans towards this view."

"...By the way, are you really okay with telling me the truth?"

"Oh, you mean Cocolia? Himeko said you're an irregular passenger on the train, so I can tell you about it."

Cocolia, the mastermind behind the journey of Arillo-VI, became a martyr in the eyes of the locals in order to save that crumbling world.

"To be honest, I don't really like the idea of ​​maintaining civilization through lies, but I can't find a solution. Maybe I'm just too stupid," Xing said, distressed.

"There's nothing wrong with leaving the right to choose one's destiny to the locals, thus sparing them from the taint of their future karma."

Qi Zhimu smiled calmly and casually changed the subject.

"Is the train still stopping at the Arillo-VI stop?"

"Yes~ Himeko said it's too early to go to the next stop, so let's stay there for now and help the locals rebuild."

At this point, Xing caught a glimpse of the company's unique logo on a certain medical facility and couldn't help but raise his index finger.

"By the way! After sealing the star core that Cocolia had touched, I actually received a sales call from the company in Yalilo-VI. That's pretty ridiculous."
