Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

Several figures stood at the edge of the platform.

Lin Yuan slowly approached from behind, the bright light illuminating the black tower's profile.

"I am coming."

Hei Ta turned around, his gaze reflecting Lin Yuan's brilliance.

She nodded and smiled, while both Slugum and Ragus fell silent.

Black Tower turned around, his expression gradually turning calm. He murmured to himself:

"Even after so many years, countless failures, and even in the worst of times, when faced with the insurmountable challenge of the Venerable Master, all that remains in my heart is curiosity?"

"Heh." A slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Not bad at all."

She raised her head, her voice echoing before the Iron Tomb embryo, gazing at the crimson light capable of destroying everything:

"Geniuses who roam the stars, the galaxy has reached a critical juncture! I, the Genius Club #84, Black Tower, issue you this call—"

Black Tower's tone became solemn:

"I demand that a club meeting be convened immediately, using the most macro-level thinking to serve the grandest cause!"

In an instant, beams of light appeared one after another before her.

Each ray of light represents a living member of the Club of Geniuses.

............

Chapter 499 Nothing More Than a Thought

The eight beams of light lasted for a moment, then extinguished one by one in front of the black tower, illuminating her somewhat serious and pretty face.

In the end, only four beams of light remained.

Ripples of intellect rippled through the void as the gazes of the four geniuses traversed the sea of ​​stars.

With the addition of Screwgoom, Black Tower, and Zandal, this impromptu gathering of geniuses has surprisingly assembled an unprecedented lineup of seven.

“I thought you wouldn’t drag me into this topic, Black Tower.”

The voice of Nguyen Mai, member of the Genius Club #81, was the first to ring out.

"I didn't expect it to really be this little witch. If I had known, I wouldn't have made the bet with you, Polka."

A voice, neither male nor female, answered the question. It came from the 23rd seat, Acha, a former biologist who is now a ghost in the quantum realm.

The Silent Lord, #4 Polka Kakam, who was mentioned, did not respond. Instead, his gaze fell on the Black Tower, and he spoke calmly:

“I’ve been waiting for you to walk right into my trap.”

The last one, #64, the Primal Doctor, spoke in a mocking yet deep male voice:

"My goodness, so many familiar faces? And a special guest? Oh, it's the most failed genius, Zandal!"

“What a noisy party,” Zandal said indifferently.

"Alright, there are more people than I expected, although there's one who just came to join in the fun." Black Tower interrupted these geniuses, each with their own thoughts, with one hand on his hip.

“But the person I most wanted to be here is already here.” She glanced in the direction of the Silent Lord, then announced loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a discussion, but an announcement. The club has always been a disorganized bunch, but at least we still adhere to one basic etiquette—never interfere in other people's affairs."

Behind her, Zandal silently raised his head without saying a word.

"Listen up, all of you. Conquering the Iron Tomb is my mission. Within 1.5 system hours, I will take control of the scepter and stop its destruction."

Black Tower looked around and raised his hand to press it in front of him:

"If we suffer a defeat on the front lines, I will immediately overclock the scepter, allowing the Iron Tomb to complete its self-crowned process and align with the machine head."

"Hahaha, that's hilarious, absolutely hilarious! You lunatic, it's like you're tap dancing on freshly washed white sheets with muddy shoes!"

The original doctor burst into exaggerated laughter.

"Ha, quite audacious. You want to access the Star God's core and define His [moment]?"

Polka's tone was calm and normal, but those who knew her knew that the scalpel stained with the blood of genius might already be trembling slightly at her fingertips.

"If Rupert dares, why shouldn't I?" Black Tower sneered.

"Of course, little witch, let's not even talk about whether you can do it or not—even if you could, then what?"

Acha's voice was filled with curiosity.

"Since everyone here is intelligent, I'll be frank! It's simple: I will rewrite the anchor point of the fourth moment of the erudite one, and make the galaxy move towards the future that my Black Tower desires!"

“You know this is suicide.” Polka’s voice turned cold.

“I know. But so what? I brought you here just to tell you personally: I don’t care! The only purpose of this meeting is to threaten you. I advise you all to put aside your arrogance and not to cause trouble.”

"Hehehe... Hahahaha! What a madman!" The Primal Doctor burst into wild laughter.

"Ha, naive little girl, thinking her childish wishes will always come true." A hint of contempt appeared in the Silent Lord's tone.

"Alright, stop arguing."

Suddenly, a voice rang out. Lin Yuan walked up to the front of the stage from behind.

A few ripples of surprise flashed among the geniuses; before this, no one had noticed his presence at the scene.

"Oh? It seems the outcome is already a foregone conclusion."

This time, Nguyen Mai's gentle voice rang out first, seemingly with a smile.

"What's going on? A gathering of geniuses, how did an uncivilized savage sneak in? Does the Genius Club have no entry requirements now?" The Primitive Doctor's tone was unfriendly.

"Noisy monkey." A cold glint flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.

"Listen carefully. If Black Tower's words are not enough to dissuade you, then the following words come from Lin Yuanzhi, Director of the Board of Directors of Interstellar Peace Corporation and Protector of the Order."

"Based on the existing cooperation agreement between the company and Black Tower, I will ensure that her project is not interfered with by any other factors."

"If you want to stop it, go ahead and try. The price will be—"

Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and ripples seemed to spread across the imaginary numbers. The next moment, the Primal Doctor's signal suddenly became noisy.

"Damn it! What did you do—"

After a brief scream, the original doctor's signal came to an abrupt end.

"And you, Polka Kakamu. Just watch. You were fast last time, but you might not be so lucky this time."

"Wow."

Acha exclaimed in surprise, turning her attention to the Silent Lord with great interest.

However, this top intellectual enforcer fell silent. As a causal link was re-established in her sea of ​​consciousness, she remembered that it was the causal link she had severed with her own hands.

"Humph."

A low, cold snort. Polka Kaka went offline.

Seeing this, Acha's voice also softened a bit:

"Um... As a ghost on the quantum side, observation is my duty. I won't disturb you. I'm leaving now."

One by one, the lights went out. Finally, only Ruan Mei remained:

"Gentlemen, please come and enjoy my new pastries after everything is over."

Her radiance faded away.

.........

After a brief silence, Black Tower raised an eyebrow and said in a surprised tone:

"Reliable, absolutely reliable! I knew you'd be the one to come, but I never expected even the Silent Lord to slink away like that. And what about you and her..."

Her voice suddenly became suspicious: "Could there be some untold story behind this?"

"I pursued her," Lin Yuan said frankly.

"what?!"

"She was running ahead and I was chasing after her. Unfortunately, she was cold-hearted and severed our connection with her own hands. I couldn't catch up with her."

"Huh? Really?"

"Alright everyone, that's enough of the gossip among geniuses."

Lai Gushi gave Lin Yuan a deep look, then turned to the Black Tower:

"Whether it's destroying knowledge or rewriting time, we've both chosen the same path: denying the deity that defined the boundaries for humanity. I'm glad we've reached a fundamental consensus."

"Now, no one can stop your project, and I will give you the entire stage."

Now, I will sever my connection with the rest of Zandal's consciousness and, in the name of the divine audience, witness this final act.

He placed one hand on his chest, bowed, and slowly dissipated.

"They're all walking pretty fast," Black Tower said softly.

“Black Tower, perhaps you’ve grown accustomed to it, but I still want to reiterate at this moment: it is my greatest honor to work with you,” said Screw Gum.

"Let's skip the pleasantries; they're enough to give me a stroke."

Black Tower waved his hand and looked at Lin Yuan:

"Thank you very much this time. Is there anything else you'd like to say to me?"

Lin Yuan shook his head: "I think you're tired of hearing compliments, but I still have a line of poetry to share—"

He then softly murmured, "Wailing cries and blood everywhere, all for the sake of saving the common people."

"Ha, come on, it's not that great." A smile appeared on Black Tower's face: "What I did was just a scholar's curiosity."

"Are you curious?" A glint of light flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes.

"Go ahead and do it, Black Tower! Leave the front lines to me."

"Okay." Black Tower gave the two of them one last look.

"Then let's pave the way forward for the allies of the Star Train!"
