Collapse, surrender to me!

But Grayshu could still understand what the other party meant.

This red bean paste mooncake seems to be waiting for Ruan Mei to come back.

"Then you just keep waiting."

Gresh had no intention of taking the little fellow with her, and continued on her way.

But the red bean paste mooncake followed on its own and even started humming a song.

The meowing sounds became more frequent.

"Ruan Mei's creatures hold hands and form a circle."

"Ruan Mei rolled all the happiness and sadness into one ball."

"Ruan Mei, Ruan Mei, why don't you look back at us?"

"Ruan Mei, Ruan Mei, where will your future path lead to?"

"Isn't there...our presence there?"

The singing echoed in the cabin, sounding somewhat desolate and lonely.

The reason why Gresh didn't feel anything was scary was because this ballad only contained longing, but not much resentment as in strange stories.

This slight difference gives people two completely different feelings.

The former is a feeling of homesickness, and the latter is a strange revival.

When she came to the next cabin, she saw several other mooncake cats inside.

They have been waiting for Ruan Mei's return, and they have always believed that Ruan Mei will come back and accept them.

But the reality is, it won’t.

But what Ruan Mei can't do, Gray can.

She looked at the pile of pastries and cats in front of her, and an idea came to her mind. Her whole body gradually became like Ruan Mei.

Suddenly, these pastry creations surrounded her, meowing excitedly.

As simple beings, they could not tell the difference between the dyed Grace and Ruan Mei.

But sometimes, being silly can also be very happy.

At least for now, these pastry creations have realized their dreams.

The indifferent mother Ruan Mei began to play with them and tell them stories... just like what Grace did to Taizyuros.

Of course, it was impossible for Grace to play with these little guys all the time.

So she comforted him with her heart.

Soon, these pastry cats fell asleep one by one.

"Unfortunately, dreams end with awakening."

Grace sighed.

After all, she is not the real Ruan Mei... When she leaves, she will just stuff these little guys back to Ruan Mei.

After all, he is your own child, you have to be responsible for him.

Gray Xiu discovered that the cabin here also disciplined Ruan Mei's image.

"Who would write a diary if they were serious?"

Grayshut complained as she flipped through the pages.

"#23 Ah Cha's last days in the mechanical city inspired me. A life as long as hers will also come to an end... Now I am sure that the result of this training is: unqualified."

“The form of life itself is meaningless. These lives are so far apart in their own concepts that they can even trigger a chain reaction of synaesthesia, but this is not what I want.”

"I'm beginning to feel lost. Is there really no answer to the question 'the essence of life'? #1 Zandar, have you ever felt so lost... and so hopeless?"

"The essence of life..."

Grayshu suddenly remembered that Kyubey had mentioned a similar topic when he asked her to improve her mind and body to merge.

According to Cupid.

Life has no essence.

Because the essence of life can actually be sublimated with the advancement of civilization.

When civilization advances to a certain level, the life belonging to that civilization will gradually become "deified" and become an existence that ordinary people cannot understand.

In this process, the essence of life is not static.

Just like the average lifespan of humans on Earth is only a few decades, and an interstellar Earth civilization that has developed for tens of thousands of years and has an average lifespan of thousands of years, the nature of life has long since undergone tremendous changes.

It’s hard to say whether they are actually carbon-based life forms... maybe they have already achieved collective mechanical ascension.

In other words, all the conclusions drawn from Ruan Mei's current research on life will be overturned after she sublimates to another level.

Of course, this does not mean that Ruan Mei is doing useless work.

After all, a civilization can make breakthroughs in many aspects, thereby feeding back into research on life.

But Ruan Mei has only this one way to go.

Because of this, it was very difficult to walk.

She is a genius in life, but not an all-rounder.

What affects life is not just the nature of life.

Just like a high-quality seedling, it can theoretically produce 100 fruits.

However, due to various external influences, only 20 fruits were produced.

The conditions for the birth of any unique and great life are complex and multifaceted, and the structure and essence of life are only one part of it.

Grace looked at Ruan Mei with Kyubey's way of thinking about life and quickly saw some problems.

This shortcoming will probably become apparent soon.

Especially when she wants to study existence far beyond her current achievements.

“Life is colorful, I firmly believe it, its splendor is like a riot of colours, and I want to pick the one that never withers.”

"In order to avoid blindly following science, I cautiously raise a question - can Ruan Mei peel off the external disturbances like a coordinate axis and explore the most fundamental and beautiful form of existence of life?"

"I thought of a 'life form' that was enough to make me admit that it was elusive. That is . . . "

"Commander."

Just as Gresh thought.

Ruan Mei set her target on the envoy.

"I don't quite understand what the Lingshi is."

"Scholars regard it as a proxy for the power of the Star God. So, when and at what point did it become closer to the Star God than any other life?"

"At first, I tried to cultivate a genius. But I failed. This problem is still unsolvable and there is still a long way to go."

"But the destiny of the universe is not limited to intelligence. If we abandon rationality, are there more primitive and purer "commanders" on other paths?"

"Taizyuros, through the simulation of the universe, I was able to get a glimpse of the beginning and end of the locust plague in the universe - I seized the data of the insect king and his offspring, replicated and cultivated them, and thus opened up a new branch of research. It is a very reasonable judgment that I will succeed. The "it" restored by me will bloom with unprecedented life. "

……

"Cultivate Taizyuros?"

Grace was shocked. Even her own mother didn't have such an idea.

However, considering what Ruan Mei said, what should be cultivated is not the Insect King, but the Envoy.

And it seems that the locust plague data that Ruan Mei obtained was not the one that was tampered with by Gray, otherwise Ruan Mei would probably doubt her life.

The simulated universe would restart again and again. In order to obtain enough data, Ruan Mei probably simulated locust plagues countless times.

But it must have failed.

The birth of a Commander, even if it is a simple breeding of Zerg, will not make him a Commander simply because of the Zerg's excellent genes.

Grayxiu suddenly discovered that Ruan Mei was actually somewhat similar to herself.

What Ruan Mei did was also to collect data from some powerful beings and then replicate them.

But Grayshu's coloring is portrayed together with experience, years, the process of growth, etc. Ruan Mei's creations do not have these spiritual things, even if some emotional concepts are injected, they are not on the same level as the original.

From this, Grace could even imagine what the breeding order created by Ruan Mei would look like.

I guess there isn't much difference in appearance.

It's hard to say the strength.

But the character probably comes only from the violence deep within the Zerg's genes and the impulse to turn everything into a hive.

Grayshu soon arrived at the passage leading to the insect swarm breeding area.

But there is one person on this road now.

Doctor Truth wearing a plaster mask.

Playing a game of chess with myself.

"Playing chess with yourself... can you really do it?"

Grace didn't quite understand.

It's like two computers using one CPU.

After you make a move, the opponent almost knows all your moves, and after the opponent starts, you can also analyze all possible situations.

In other words.

If you play chess with yourself, and your computing power is strong enough, it is like playing with open cards.

After making a move, you can directly announce which side wins.

"Oh? Then are you willing to continue this game with me?" Doctor Truth saw Grace, looked her up and down for a while, and made an invitation.

"There's no need... My computing power is better than the Immortal Boat's Dayan Formation when it comes to observing in a small area." Grayshu made a voice of rejection.

"...Then, there is really no need."

Doctor Truth waved his hand and the chessboard disappeared.

He doesn't mind playing chess with others, but there is no need to seek abuse, as that is a waste of time.

Playing chess with the Dayan Formation that is comparable to the Taibusi?

That's not called playing chess, that's called going to jail.

As a scholar of the Society of Knowledge, Doctor Zhenli naturally has his own set of intelligence channels.

At first, I was just a little surprised to see Grayshu.

When Grayshu said that his computing power was comparable to that of the Dayan Array, Doctor Truth directly checked it out.

"So it's Grayshu... You have a very good relationship with Madam Black Tower. According to the information from the Institute of Knowledge, you seem to have mastered the power related to nothingness in the Black Tower, but the Black Tower itself does not have this ability..."

"Of course, none of this has much to do with me."

Doctor Truth closed the stone book.

"Are you here to help Black Tower deal with the things down there?"

"That's right..."

Gray nodded.

She couldn't say that she was summoned by the bugs.

"you are?"

"I was originally a visitor to the space station. I entered here by mistake and witnessed Ruan Mei's experiment... My purpose is probably the same as yours. Since you are here, I will not interfere; but if you fail, I will intervene forcefully to prevent some unnecessary trouble."

"Although, with the ability you have demonstrated in your record at the Academy of Knowledge, it is unlikely that you will fail, but nothing is absolute."

"…Then you are a very nice person."

Grayxiu smacked her lips.

Inexplicably, there is a personal master of Grayshu, although he is not needed.
