Qiong turned his head and saw it was the man who had fought Xingxiao to save him. "Brother Hua? When did you arrive?"

Hua Wu held his phone, typed "Aista" into his contacts, and switched the call chip to the third one, Zhang Wei. "Three seconds ago. I'm asking now. Actually, I also think it doesn't need to be returned. But out of politeness, we should ask."

Soon, Estella's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Wei, what's wrong...?"

"Your pig is with me, no need to look for it."

"Pig? Mr. Wei, you've got the wrong number. I'm not Miss Topa. If you're going to play a prank with the account book, you should call..."

"No, I'm looking for you, the ethereal spirit with emotional characteristics in your warehouse. The ethereal piggy bank whose data wasn't completely deleted is with me."

"Is this...important?"

"It doesn't matter? That's good, it's mine now."

"Um... just for this?" Estella's tone was somewhat surprised.

"Otherwise what? Do you expect me to steal the entire Imaginary Energy Generator of the Academy of Erudition, stuff them into the core of Pierpont, and then use that to scare you?"

"That's good..."

"Maybe I really will, hahaha...who knows."

“Mr. Wei, this is not funny.”

"But that doesn't stop me from laughing."

Hua Wu swiped his finger and decisively hung up the phone.

"Perfect, we don't need to pay it back."

Xing looked smug. "I knew it! Estella's family is so powerful, she wouldn't care about a pig."

Qiong, meanwhile, was observing her surroundings. "What about that one?"

Hua Wu was completely confused. "Which one?"

"That's the one."

"Which one?"

Qiong pointed to the side next to Hua Wu, then gestured, "I dare not say his name, I'm afraid I'll jinx it."

Hua Wu smiled faintly, "Oh, don't worry. I've made her go back to do her homework."

Danheng looked incredulous. "Homework? What homework did you assign her?"

Hua Wu replied casually, "Counting stars."

star:......

Are you sure she has that kind of patience?

“She didn’t, but I told her that if she wanted the chance to dance with me, she would need to tell me how many planets her legion controlled.”

Qiong asked in shock, "This... you sold yourself?"

Xing calmly replied, "Is it possible that if she sent her entire legion into the sky, she wouldn't have a legion anymore, she..."

Hua Wu quickly covered Xing's mouth, "Damn it, how could I not have thought of that! You can't talk about things like that!"

Hua Wu scanned his surroundings, but apart from the crowd that had dispersed after the competition, he didn't see anyone else.

Except for the March 7th, which is being talked about in the distance.

"March? What's she doing on the other side?"

Qiong scratched her head, "Uh, I forgot. I didn't call her when I came over."

Xing looked at him with disdain, "Why didn't you forget yourself?"

Xing teleported March 7 over. After seeing everyone, March 7 complained, "Am I even a member of the train? I want to go back to the train. Anyway, I'll just be forgotten here because I'm too normal."

Qiong said nonchalantly, "Then let's go back."

Xing reminded her, "But I remember... isn't there a Cocolia funeral tomorrow? It wouldn't be right for us to just leave like this, would it?"

Hua Wu asked, puzzled, "Do you intend to steal Cocolia's tribute?"

Qiong: ......

March 7th: ......

star:......

Walter: ......

Danheng: ......

Even Qiong, who was always prone to erratic behavior, found this statement a bit abstract. "What you're saying... Brother Hua, respect for the dead is paramount."

Hua Wu remained calm. "What's the big deal? I once stole some offerings from the cosmic birdmen. To be honest, they were absolutely awful."

......

The next day————

Cripper Castle —

"Everyone on the Star Train, are you planning to leave?"

Walter said regretfully, "Yes. We are very sorry about what happened to your mother..."

Bronya faced the crowd and said, "This wasn't your fault. Without you, I don't even want to think about Belloberg's future."

At this moment, Qiong stepped forward and took out his Flame Spear. "This Flame Spear has been reborn in my hands."

A hint of surprise flashed in Bronya's eyes. "As expected, I wasn't wrong... It can bring about change to this planet, and it can certainly carry the will of Amber."

Qiong glanced at Hua Wu, then looked at Bronya guiltily and said, "There's one more thing... Your creation engine has merged with it."

Bronya's eyes flashed with shock, but she quickly recovered. "Huh?! There's such a thing?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Walter and Danheng's eyes, but they quickly dismissed it after glancing at Hua Wu.

Qiong spoke nonsense with a straight face: "Although I know this is a bit strange, it really happened."

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself because of this. At this point, Belloborg no longer needs the Creation Engine. Letting it sink into the past with time is not a bad thing. The wind and snow and the star core have also left Yalilo. Even if they stayed in Belloborg, I can't think of any use for them."

Bronya looked at the dome and took a deep breath, as if she had made a decision. "Let this machine of history accompany you in shaping the future. Arilo's future will no longer need it. But your future may need it."

"You mean, you gave it to me?"

“Since you have inherited the will of this planet in the past, you shall also accept the assistance from the past. Nameless Guest, I have read your information. If the Creation Engine can help more people without Yalilo, I will not leave it behind for my own selfish reasons.”

Bronya stood up in front of her desk and said to the group, "Have a safe trip."

......

Star Train —

Looking out the window at the bald, dark landscape of Yalilo, on March 7th, I wondered, "Are we really leaving like this?"

Flames burned in Qiong's hands. "We don't need to join in on Cocolia's memorial service. We are just nameless guests, mere passersby. Besides, I've seen many such scenes. Every Guardian's sacrifice, even when bewitched by the Star Core, has not forgotten to protect the masses."

“But Cocolia is an exception. She almost brought rifts and destruction to Arilo. As a Great Guardian, she is unqualified. Compared to the others, she is unqualified.”

Xing chimed in, "You've never experienced other people's suffering, yet you make it sound so easy."

"I am indeed an observer, and as an observer, isn't it normal for me to give my evaluation?"

"Yes, yes, yes, they got the benefit and are still acting innocent, they stole the engine and then..."

Chapter 218 Hua Wu: I can no longer allow that virus to exist here, so I've come to kill it!

"What is stealing? It is pioneering connection."

"You... have a lot of twisted logic. Taking something without asking, isn't that stealing?"

"Connection, it's connection!"

"Thief!"

"coupling!"

The two argued incessantly like children. They were indeed children, two children capable of easily destroying civilization.

Just then, Hua Wu, who was watching the show on the sofa, received a message from the space station.

The message was extremely brief: "[Come here]." How could those two short words possibly give Hua Wu any ideas?

[Didn't you see? Your previous test data was abnormal, causing another version of you to appear in the simulated universe. He's completely messed up my simulated universe.]

Another message arrived, this one exceptionally long. Hua Wu remained unmoved.

[You were trying to create more simulated universes within the simulated universe. The celestial beings within them have become gibberish, a jumbled mess of characters.]

Hua Wu revealed a smile, a smile of schadenfreude.

[Haha, how can you be so sure it wasn't something Aha did?]

[So you can check your phone. Come over if you see it.]

Hua Wu smiled as he looked at his phone. The keyboard on the phone started typing automatically: "[I'm lazy, can't you just delete it? You can't even delete something virtual? You're not lying to me, are you?]"

[I'm not that bored, because of the server you left behind. It now exists in any simulated universe, and a single server can support a maximum of 1024 identical universes. A single server contains countless amounts of data, existing in a completely different format.]

Upon hearing this, Hua Wu realized it was the same security software that had been on his computer. His anger surged.

[I can no longer allow that virus to exist in this promising simulated universe, so I will blast it and all those other things to smithereens!]

[Dismantle it? You'll compensate me? And how will you repay the time spent in between?]

[Let the mechanical head heal you! That damn virus is plastered on my face, now I'm here to kill it!]

[Silver Letter, this isn't how you come over!]

The next moment, a fist carrying thunder and ice slammed into the Black Tower office.

"boom!"

Last time, Xingxiao opened a straight line in the Black Tower office, but this time Huawu destroyed everything inside.

Black Tower already knew this outcome, or rather, she had anticipated it when she sent the message.
