Collapse Iron: After watching the simulation, they all turned to the dark side.

"B, you dare touch someone I protect? Black Tower, let's make our move!!!"

"C. Black, a hymn to nothingness!!"

Lu Qing chuckled lightly. How could she possibly choose? It was too easy.

To be honest, this is just a simulation; you can choose whatever you like.

Suddenly, a wind rose, causing the boy's clothes to sway and flutter.

A pair of broken corners quietly emerged, and a colorful yet meaningless black spread out from Lu Qing as the center.

In the void, meaningless mandalas bloom one after another.

He reached out and grabbed the ethereal naginata.

In an instant, the unique aura of the envoy spanned the heavens and the earth.

The previously calm Grand Duke of Netherfire suddenly narrowed his pupils, his subconscious telling him something.

He will die! ! ! ! !

"You've won. I'm leaving." Grand Duke Netherfire slowly rose, his face filled with apprehension as he stared at the young man before him.

He is crazy, but not stupid.

Lu Qing didn't say anything, and simply sheathed his sword.

"Make a wise choice, or nothingness will engulf you."

Grand Duke Minghuo left quickly. Duanmu Zhai, the head of the conglomerate, wiped the cold sweat from his brow and then jogged over:

"I am deeply grateful, my lords."

Lu Qing ignored him and instead looked at Duanmu Laifu, whose face had unknowingly turned red.

"Let him be the next successor."

“Of course, Your Majesty’s will is my will,” Duanmu Zhai replied.

[Walter: Why do I feel that Lu Qing's appearance just now is very similar to that of an old friend of mine?]

[Walter: Why is the Collapse of the Trench still chasing me?!]

[Rakshasa: What does this mean?]

[Walter: Lu Qing slapped you once, but you slapped me twice.]

[Hanabi: What about Himeko?]

[Hanabi: Oh, I remember now, Himeko has been burned to ashes, not even a trace left.]

[Walter: Void Treasury, open!!!]

Chapter 11 Who Can Resist Hugging a Powerful Backer?

The wine glass was swirled, and the amber-colored liquid inside emitted a wonderful aroma.

However, Duanmu Laifu seemed a little reserved. After all, he hadn't expected that the stationmaster in front of him, who looked extraordinary except for his appearance, was actually a Commander, or rather, a Void without a Commander as rumored.

"Stationmaster, thank you very much for today." His somewhat round and comical face was full of gratitude.

Lu Qing smiled nonchalantly: "I still prefer your previous unruly self."

Duanmu Laifu gave an awkward smile, and being a shrewd person, he immediately skipped the topic: "Station Master, as a Commander, you actually work for Lady Black Tower?"

Lu Qing was momentarily at a loss for words.

It's not like I'm saying that Aha did it all; no one would believe that.

However, Lu Qing soon had a good idea. He first glanced at the little black tower that was eavesdropping out of the corner of his eye.

"Ms. Black Tower's legs are so white and smooth, who wouldn't want to cling to her thighs!"

Duanmu Laifu gave him a look that any man would understand.

"Don't worry, I understand everything."

Lu Qing had a feeling that he was thinking the wrong thing; his eyes didn't look like those of a good person.

Finally, Black Tower spoke: "Hey, you there, go out for a bit. I need to discuss something with Lu Qing."

Although Duanmu Laifu didn't know what had happened, he still looked at Lu Qing with a "I believe in you" look.

"what happened?"

"Our Great Envoy of Pleasure, it turns out, has a dual destiny?" Little Black Tower's tone was somewhat aggressive.

Lu Qingcai then realized that he seemed to have forgotten about this:

"You're angry."

"I'm just a little curious. You're clearly tainted with an aura of pleasure, yet in the end you're just an empty messenger. I'm getting more and more curious about your purpose in joining the Black Tower Space Station."

Seemingly remembering something, Heita added, "If you continue to use the excuse that you are Ruan Mei's admirer to brush me off, then pretend I didn't ask."

Lu Qing could only raise her clear, dark eyes with a hint of helplessness, and rub her temples in exasperation.

Everyone has their own secrets, don't they?

"But what if I want to uncover this secret?"

Is this the curiosity of a genius? Lu Qing has witnessed it firsthand today.

"Is it possible that I'm just here at the Black Tower Space Station to curry favor with you?"

"Okay, come to my room tonight, you can hug me then."

[Star: Wait, is this part of the story I can watch?]

[March 7th: Hey, hey, hey, why are you thinking dirty thoughts again!]

Lu Qing chose to remain silent and shut his mouth.

The corners of Xiao Heita's lips curled up almost imperceptibly.

He was indeed a giant in thought, but an incompetent pragmatist.

As the saying goes, patience brings peace, but retreat only breeds more anger. Lu Qing glanced at the little black tower, who was secretly laughing:

It seems necessary to give my female boss a good talking-to.

"Are you sure you can keep things under control if you let me into your room tonight?"

Now it was Black Tower's turn to be silent. She had just been talking nonsense too, but thinking of that overwhelming aura of emptiness, even that madman didn't dare to resist and slunk away.

"I...I was just joking..."

[Fireworks: Lu Qing: If you're bad, practice more.]

Silver Wolf: Seeing Black Tower get its comeuppance always makes me feel refreshed.

Little Black Tower seemed to suddenly remember something and asked, "Hey, by the way, if you're so powerful, why do you insist on having me protect you?"

As he spoke, Black Tower's eyes widened, and he looked at Lu Qing with a complicated expression, as if he were looking at a nobody.

"You, you, you wouldn't be thinking of making a move on me, would you?!"

"Pah, you old woman, you've really gone too far. Who's after you anyway?"

Black Tower continued to ponder, then suddenly frowned and asked, "I remember reading in a book that the closer one gets to nothingness, the more power one can gain, but also the greater the price one must pay. Is that why you don't want to take action?"

Lu Qing was taken aback for a moment, then smiled calmly:

"Not bad, you noticed that."

"Give me your hand."

"Auntie, I'm not interested in you at all."

Black Tower remained silent, but simply grabbed Lu Qing's hand.

She closed her eyes and sensed something slightly.

"Why...why did you do this..." Black Tower's expression was completely expressionless.

"Why? Because I need to help a woman who doesn't know how to plan to clean up the mess she left behind."

"In a few days, I'll have Ruan Mei come and take a look at you. It should be able to solve the problem."

"No need."

"This is not a request, just informing you."

As always, he acted arbitrarily.

This was the first time Lu Qing had activated this talent. He discovered that each time he activated the Void Anchor Point, the flow of time within him would accelerate.

In other words, every time one activates the power of nothingness, a portion of one's own life force is lost.

However, he didn't really care about these things.

After all, this hardly affects the simulation's settlement, and it doesn't matter if the simulation's life is consumed.

But Black Tower clearly doesn't think so:

Although she remained stubborn as always, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"As a short-lived species, would he be willing to sacrifice his already limited lifespan for the space station and for me?"

So, he doesn't like Ruan Mei, but likes me?

Was it just an excuse to stay by my side?

He likes me, he has me in his heart!!

[Doctor Truth: The logic is sound, but the process is entirely correct while the answer is completely wrong.]

[March 7th: Is this the dark history of a genius? How interesting!]

[Star: Seeing that even a genius is as slow as March makes me feel relieved.]

[March 7th: Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by "as stupid as me"? Do you really think I'm that dumb?]

[The Great Black Tower: I'm so ashamed I can't face anyone anymore...]

[Aista: @BigBlackTower, so you don't like him, right?]

[The Big Black Tower: He's just a good cook, he helped me with some of the work, he provided some research ideas, and he even sacrificed part of his life to help me solve the space station's problems. I have no reason to like him.]

[Estella: Phew, that puts my mind at ease.]

[Ruan Mei: I feel that Hei Ta's speech was a bit too long.]

[Hanabi: Yeah! Why? It's so strange! It's so hard to guess!]

[Aista: Don't even think about trying to sow discord between me and Lady Black Tower!!!]

Chapter 12 Black Tower: This is utter torture!!!

The vast universe was utterly silent.

Inside the completely silent, pale silver spaceship, only faint, low breathing could be heard.

Lu Qing fell asleep.

Black Tower sat beside him, silently watching his sleeping face.

I have to say, he's really good-looking.

She remained silent for a long time, then spoke in an unquestionable tone:

"Little follower, I'll find a way to make up for the time you've lost."

Black Tower has never liked owing favors.

Now, the same is true.

[Fireworks: Lu Qing's kindness can never be repaid!]

[Big Black Tower: Damn it, do you want seaweed and egg drop soup?]

As Lu Qing was sleeping, she felt a sudden jolt in the carriage, and then her body involuntarily slumped to one side.

After hesitating for a moment, Hei Ta used both hands to support Lu Qing's head and placed it on her knees.
