So, are pastries actually delicious or not?

Under Hei Ta's watchful gaze, Jiang Jiu finished the entire pastry with relish.

“It’s delicious, Ms. Black Tower.”

"I love so much."

Chapter 114 Saving you is just as important as saving the galaxy.

Ms. Black Tower left satisfied.

It seems she has a real talent for cooking; no wonder she is.

Jiang Jiu put the plate aside, watched the little black tower sitting there for a while, looking a bit emo. Then she saw the little black tower sigh, shake its head, and resignedly leave the lab with the plate that was three or four times its size.

...That's quite impressive.

"Okay."

As the black swan spoke, images of memories appeared on the screen.

At first, it was somewhat chaotic and blurry, as if shrouded in mist, and then the next moment... the scene before my eyes materialized.

The being crowned as the Third Emperor stands at the center of the universe. Her entire body consists only of bizarre yet exquisitely beautiful bones and skulls. Her head, adorned with a purplish-black crown, is slightly lowered, showing no regard for anyone.

Countless virtual soldiers floated around her.

Surrounded by layers of starfleet, the attack overwhelmed Emperor III in the blink of an eye.

Black Tower paused for a moment.

"This is...me?"

Jiang Jiu looked at the black swan in disbelief.

no......

Do you think you're writing a novel? Putting such a grand scene right at the beginning? Is that appropriate?

The black swan was very satisfied with its arrangement.

"I was shocked when I first saw this scene, and I didn't even understand what was happening. Later I learned that Lady Black Tower was willing to give up her life for the galaxy..."

Black Tower frowned slightly.

She recalled what Jiang Jiu had said to her when they first met.

"You will soon meet the Venerable Master through the audience system, and then you will sacrifice yourself to stop the Iron Tomb from destroying the world."

So this isn't just a possibility... but something that's actually going to happen in the future...?

Most of these images in memory are fragmented pieces or fleeting glimpses, just as the person recalling said.

The more memorable something is, the clearer it becomes in your memory.

From the initial encounter to gaining trust, and finally entering Onphalus, these images flash by, fragmented images, but they are still predictable.

Black Tower chuckled lightly: "You don't mean I'm involved every time, do you?"

Jiang Jiu was silent for two seconds, then softly hummed in agreement.

Black Tower: "Hmm? Really? But that's normal, after all, I'm bound to be curious about what you've done."

I participate because of curiosity.

The images flashed by so quickly that Jiang Jiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Wandering aimlessly, many days' memories pass by in a second, which is quite nice.

He'd spread the word about the Immortal Ship's situation to every corner of the galaxy, and he doubted it would dare to defy the law again...

The rapidly flashing memories suddenly slowed down somewhere in Onphalus.

Lai Gushi appeared, and he seemed to say something, but he was cut to pieces before he could finish his sentence.

next moment......

The power of nothingness attached itself to the Silent Star Sword, and the sword light, centered on Jiang Jiu, spanned the entire Onfaros.

The sky was split in two, formatted data appeared from mid-air, and the entire Onpharos shattered in two, even the scepter developed cracks.

The Iron Tomb makes its official appearance.

Black Tower crossed his arms and commented, "Did he get so angry that he just chopped Onpharos off? What an ugly thing... Was I fused with this thing?"

Jiang Jiu hissed, "Tsk, this part is a bit embarrassing, how about we skip it?"

"You got killed?"

"...The obvious answer."

"vegetable."

Jiang Jiu was speechless: "If you're so good, then you go and do it. That thing isn't at the level of an Envoy. It can wipe out the entire universe in one move. Anyone below the level of a Star God can't survive. You can't even scratch it."

The argument was refuted, but Black Tower wasn't angry.

More than that, she was curious about how a disaster of this magnitude was resolved.

"Why don't we skip this and go check on the situation of the immortal ship behind us? We don't need this now, no need to waste time..."

"But this disaster was bound to happen sooner or later, wasn't it?" Hei Ta looked at Jiang Jiu with some curiosity. "Did you do something bad? It seems like you're not happy to let us see it."

"If we have to face this disaster sooner or later, we might as well find a solution sooner."

"What if there's a better way?"

Jiang Jiu: "..."

Unable to refute.

"But I don't need a better solution, all I want is a solution. As long as it can be solved, I don't care what it takes to achieve it."

“It’s not up to you,” Black Tower said.

As a genius, of course I would look for the optimal solution.

But the images depict more than just despair.

It's an extreme difference in combat power.

The moment Iron Tomb opened its eyes, a devastating shockwave emanated from it, spreading out in a ring shape, causing the data space to crumble inch by inch wherever it passed.

The entire world began to collapse at an extremely rapid pace; in just one glance, the difference in strength was immediately apparent.

From a first-person perspective, I truly experienced what it means to be completely overwhelmed by combat power. It was from this point that Jiang Jiu's own figure began to appear in the footage.

Hei Ta pinched his chin, feeling that Jiang Jiu at this time was very different from now.

Jiang Jiu's eyes seem to be missing something right now...

"You... are quite different from before."

Jiang Jiu blinked, glanced at his hair subconsciously, and said helplessly, "There's a small problem, the color is fading a bit, but it's not a big deal."

Black Tower: "..."

Seeing the utter despair before him, Black Tower was speechless for a moment, because there was truly no other way to deal with this situation.

Under these circumstances, Jiang Jiu's chosen method was surprisingly to deny the Iron Tomb.

Unsurprisingly, he failed, suffered a backlash, and was utterly humiliated, but in the face of death, he actually managed a self-deprecating laugh.

After experiencing failure once, Jiang Jiu decided to give up on breaking through from within Onphalos and instead choose to find the Black Tower, unite the entire galaxy, and create an allied force to strike at the Iron Tomb.

This time, we've basically tried every possible method and sought out every possible ally.

In some ways, we have far more allies than we do now.

That timeline didn't have the threat of the global locust plague caused by the Immortal Ship, so Ruan Mei was also there, as were Luo Si, her, Jiang Jiu, and Stephen.

With five geniuses working together, it's hard to say that they could find a better solution.

"Black Tower, at worst we can start over, but we can't let it come to the point where you have to sacrifice yourself."

Black Tower saw himself and immediately retorted with a question.

"What are you going to do? Save the galaxy? Kill the Iron Tomb? Or... save me?"

She heard Jiang Jiu's sullen reply.

"...These three points make no difference to me."

"To save you, and to save the galaxy..."

"Equally important."

Black Tower paused for two seconds.

Something seems off about Chapter 115...

She hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Jiu.

"...Are we very familiar with each other?"

Jiang Jiu coughed lightly. Although he didn't remember when this had happened, well... he could continue the story.

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have come directly to you, would I?"

Black Tower pondered for a while, rubbing his chin, and finally concluded that his charm was indeed very strong; even a being like the savior could be attracted to him.

As expected of her.

Something just feels off...

Watching the images that follow, searching for Demuse, convening the Genius Club meeting, and then... the war begins.

Black Tower remained silent.

Jiang Jiu felt that his memories were strange. Since he could trust Black Tower, Screw, and Black Swan who were present, he made an excuse to go out for some fresh air.

Nothing will happen; at worst, we can just roll back the data.

That's what Jiang Jiu thought.
