Bengtie: A Genius's Out-of-the-Domain Idea

A closer look reveals that her body is composed of memory matter rather than the flesh and blood that appears on the surface. Her structure is similar to that of the memory dwellers in the "Flowing Light Memory Garden," but there are still differences.

This form is like something reconstructed using memory or an individual created by a fictional historian. Hmm... Without detailed study, Lin Yi could only deduce this much based on his initial visual observation.

Screw Gumm: "This lady just tried to steal my top hat and monocle."

Lin Yi couldn't help but look at the cat on Screw's hand with new eyes: "Wow~ You can't judge a book by its cover, daring to steal Screw's things."

With Screwgoum holding her by the back of her collar, Sephiroth said weakly, "Um... could you put me down first? And... could you tell me where we are?"

As for why Sai Fei'er is here, well, it's a short story.

The cat is feeling wronged~ As the true Titan who betrays the world. Saifeier was still wandering outside of Ohma day after day.

But a few months ago, a dramatic change occurred in Onphalos, and a terrible calamity appeared that was ten thousand times more terrifying than the Black Tide.

Suddenly, a number of Antikythera people and similar creatures appeared in Onpharos.

But without exception, these creatures exhibited strong hostility towards the living.

Fortunately, most of these creatures are engaged in dogfighting among themselves and the Black Tide's creations within the areas ravaged by the Black Tide. Only a small number of individuals have wandered out and are invading Ohmma.

Most people in Ohmma are optimistic about the emergence of this unknown entity, believing it to be an unexpected change that may bring a different tomorrow.

But things developed far beyond expectations. In just a few months, these metal creations seemed poised to overthrow the entire Onphalus and destroy the world.

In the moment of crisis, a powerful swordsman dressed in black robes stopped these mad creations.

Yes, the current situation in Onfaros has been abstracted to the Black Tide and Ohma fighting together against this suddenly appearing force.

At this moment, the most senior senator in the Senate, Lycurgus, found her and said a bunch of incomprehensible things to her.

—They say this is an external "anti-organic equation" that reacted with the carrier of Onfaros.

—It is also said that this equation was greatly weakened by another will, but it is still not something Onpharos can handle and he must ask for help.

—And what about choosing the lesser of two evils, compared to the great emperor's equation, which is more harmful.

—Finally, he told her that she was the only one who had any hope of leaving Onphalus at this time and seeking help from outer space.

And so, in a completely bewildered way, Saifeier was thrown out of a special place by Laigushi.

It was only then that Sai Fei'er realized how powerful this elder of the Senate was. She was, after all, a demigod, yet he had captured her and thrown her out so easily.

Saifeier remembered passing through a strange passage where she felt she couldn't even perceive her own body. Then she saw a huge creature that looked like it was made of crystal, but it seemed to just look at it.

Then, for no apparent reason, she appeared beside the scepter outside the "Divine Firmament Space City".

Although she didn't understand, Saifeier still remembered Laigushi's last instructions before throwing her out: find a genius, find a guy named "Ross Goom," because only he could save Onpharos.

Finally, I was just wandering around and wanted to ask someone where I was. I saw ScrewGumm and wanted to say hello and ask him for a chat in exchange for returning my things. But ScrewGumm grabbed me by the back of the neck with one hand.

Lin Yi looked at Luo Si: "So where did this cat come from?"

With her hands on her hips, even as she was arrested for theft and being dragged around, she remained 'arrogant': "I'm not a cat~ I'm the legendary rogue star Sefalia from Doros, and also Sefalia, the demigod of trickery in Ohma. May I ask which city-state this is? Or is this the legendary outer realm?"

Lin Yi stroked his chin, pondering, "It sounds like 'Talia,' but it probably isn't. The thieves there wouldn't dare call themselves demigods. Demigods and an outer realm...it seems to come from a primitive civilization that hasn't yet connected with the stars."

Lin Yi had no idea about Onpharos; the game version hadn't even been updated to that point yet.

Saifeier said angrily, "I can tell that this isn't a nice thing to say—Ohm is not ignorant."

Lin Yi shook his head: "Whether your hometown is ignorant or not is not important. What is important is why you are here?"

Screw Gum quickly stepped in to smooth things over: "Let me explain, Mr. Lin Yi. I might know her background—"

Screw Gum: "I do have special business in 'Divine Firmament Space City' this time. Due to some special reasons, I may need to touch the Rupert Scepter that Mr. Lin Yi unexpectedly found in 'Laplace's Demon'."

"But perhaps not anymore. Ms. Seifer's appearance signifies the worst-case scenario I don't want to face..."

Screwgoom paused: "I saw residual information from the 'Anti-Organic Equation' in her."

Intelligent people don't need to be too explicit.

Screw Gum put Cypher down: "I'm sorry, madam, please forgive my rudeness just now, but it was to remove the dangerous information from you."

Upon hearing the term "anti-organic equation," Lin Yi's expression turned serious. He understood that if it were merely a remnant of the anti-organic equation that had survived the Imperial War, Screw would not have taken it so seriously.

Upon hearing the keyword, Saifei's ears perked up, and her tail twitched repeatedly: "'Anti-organic equation'? Yes, that's right, that's what Laigushi calls it too~ Could you tell me what that is?"

Neither Lin Yi nor Luo Sigumu paid any attention to the cat.

Lin Yi looked at Screw Gumu and said in a tone that was both teasing and serious, "Tell me in detail? I don't want to experience the Third Emperor's Battlefield firsthand."

Hey, let's start with an AI dungeon.

Chapter 216 Native Cat

Lin Yi: "I especially don't want to see you go from 'Mechanical Aristocrat' O. Screwgun I to 'Mechanical Emperor' O. Screwgun III~"

Screw Gum: "Rest assured, I will do my utmost to prevent the outbreak of the Third Imperial War. As long as I am here, a full-scale war between inorganic and organic life will not come."

Saifei caught the keyword again: "Srogoum? You just mentioned Rogoum, right? This elegant scholar who looks exactly like the Antikythera people, is that Rogoum?"

"Is this Mr. Screw Coulomb... a genius?"

Considering what the elder Lai Gushi had told her, and that she might need his help, Sai Fei'er still used a respectful form of address.

But she was actually a little dismissive of it.

Saifeier felt that in the long span of more than 1000 light-years, what kind of people hadn't she seen? She had seen all kinds of geniuses, but none of them had been of any help to her journey to pursue the fire.

What's so special about this 'genius'? The idea that only a genius like O-Screwgoom can save Onpharos is mostly alarmist.

But since she found it so easily... she might as well give it a try. Besides, she was really curious about where this place was.

This genius is far from being a genius in the conventional sense.

Well, I hope that after the cat has gained some knowledge of common sense about the world, it can still remain so calm and indifferent.

Lin Yi looked at Sai Feier with surprise again: "Being able to know about geniuses and Screw Gum doesn't mean you're completely closed off."

Lin Yi scanned Sai Feier with a probing gaze: "But your tone of voice reveals your ignorance. I'm quite curious about what your hometown is like."

He then invited ScrewGumm, saying, "This place isn't suitable for conversation. I have a feeling you're about to reveal something big to me. Let's go to my private residence; the level of confidentiality and protection there is extremely high."

Screw Gum nodded in agreement: "Thank you for your invitation."

Lin Yi didn't forget Sai Feier either: "And you too~ You're also involved, perhaps closely related to the incident, so let's include you~"

In an instant, Lin Yi, along with Luo Sigumu and Sai Feier, appeared at Lin Yi's private residence in the Seventh Heaven.

To be honest, he doesn't come here often. After all, there are places to rest in the lab, in the "Garden of Life"... there are places to rest everywhere.

The area most frequently used is the rest area in the laboratory, which is just as good as this.

Given that they've been lying around like corpses for a long time, the clones can just lie in the incubation chamber.

However, whether or not one can use it is one thing, and whether or not one exists at all is another.

Saifei'er's eyes widened: "So fast, I didn't even have time to react! No, this isn't speed, it's more like Sister Tian's 'opening the door,' but it's also a little different."

Saifei looked around and saw a huge floor clock. It was a gift from Screw Gum.

Lin Yi: "Screw. This guy doesn't seem to understand common sense. I don't want to have to stop and explain every now and then. How about we wait two minutes, put a special synesthetic beacon on her, and give her some common sense before we talk?"

Screw Gum: "Approved."

Lin Yi raised his hand and flicked his finger, and two small light screens appeared in front of him and in front of Zhu Xing, who was signing for the express delivery.

As soon as I returned from chasing stars, I received delivery notifications from "Universal Masterpieces" and "Interstellar Peace Logistics" and went to sign for the "Limited Edition Deluxe Star Destroyer" that I had ordered.

Zhu Xing bought it in Lin Yi's name, and the delivery was very fast.

To be honest, this Star Destroyer's performance wasn't actually that great, although it was better than regular Star Destroyers on the market. But it was just something that could be sold and traded.

The toy that Zhu Xing made himself two years ago was better than this, and the "Rare Ship" that Lin Yi modified with a lot of things from the "Erudition Society" was also better than this ship.

Most people buy the Star Chaser because of its good looks.

But when he returned, Lin Yi took Huanlong away, while Zhuxing went to hand Lancelot and Ruoyue over to Ruan Mei for treatment and to help out.

I just finished working on it. Then I went to sign for it right away.

Just as Zhu Xing finished inspecting and confirming the delivery, and saw off the company's logistics personnel, before he could even take a closer look at the Star Destroyer, he received a communication screen from Lin Yi.

Zhu Xing: "Is there anything I can help you with, teacher?"

Lin Yi instructed, "Zhu Xing, fetch a special synesthetic beacon and a readily available 'Starry Sea Common Sense Memory Bubble' and bring them to my residence. They'll be used to help a suspected native who is unfamiliar with Starry Sea common sense and doesn't seem to have connected with it understand the basic knowledge of interstellar space."

Looking at the ship's projection on the bridge, Zhu Xing said with a hint of reluctance, "The teacher will be here soon~"

Saifeier was somewhat indignant: "I'm not a native."

Lin Yi retorted, "Then do you know who I am?"

Sai Fei'er remained silent for a moment before whispering, "I don't know her..."

Lin Yi understood, and reached out to ruffle the cat's head: "That'll do, you naughty native cat~"

With her other hand, she took a porcelain cup from Sai Fei'er and placed it back on the coffee table. It was a gift from Ruan Mei; it was part of a complete set, and it wouldn't be good if one was missing.

I don't know who taught this cat to steal things, how did it develop this bad habit? Bad cat!

Sai Fei'er angrily slapped away Lin Yi's hand that was rubbing her head, her tone full of resentment: "Are you that famous? Why should everyone have to know you? Do you dare to say that everyone knows who you are?"

But Saifeier was still startled. Although she didn't gain super speed by flipping a coin, she was still very agile and swift. How come she was caught by Screw Gum with one hand just now, and now she can't avoid this guy's hand?

Lin Yi smiled when he heard Sai Fei'er's question, a smile just like the expression on Black Tower's face when Xing asked, "Is Black Tower great?"

Lin Yi: "Am I famous? Heh~ You can boldly remove the 'ma' and then change the question into an affirmative statement."

"Standing before you now are two geniuses from the 'Genius Club'—aside from the Venerable Master of Learning, the most intelligent beings in the world."

"This is Screwgoom, the leader of all inorganic life forms in the 'Genius Club' #76, the emperor of Screwstar. No civilization with internet access could possibly be unfamiliar with him."

"I, the Envoy of Abundance, #85 of the 'Genius Club,' have only recently bestowed my blessings upon all living beings in the universe, and now is the height of discussion—praise or curses alike."

"But—unless it's a completely isolated, unconnected, and utterly ignorant place, it's impossible for them not to know who I am."

Sai Fei'er looked incredulous, just then Zhu Xing arrived with some things. Lin Yi was quite curious to see if Sai Fei'er could still maintain this expression after learning about the common knowledge of the universe.

The reason why Cypher was chosen was also carefully considered. Onpharos needs the support of Titans or demigods, and Cypher's cunning and authority can use lies to deceive the world and create the 'lie' that she has not left and is still supporting the world.

Chapter 217 "Inverse Organic Equations" 2.0

Zhu Xing: "Teacher, the things have arrived."

Hearing the voice that suddenly appeared behind her, Saifei almost got angry again, her tail standing straight up.

'Another one who appears out of nowhere, in a way that's completely incomprehensible.'

'Who are these guys anyway? Am I really some clueless native? I'm feeling even more nervous than when I'm facing the seamstress...'

It's all that bastard Lai Gu Shi's fault, he didn't even explain anything clearly. When we get back, I'm going to wipe out all of Lai Gu Shi's possessions—I'd be a fool if I could leave even a single Li Heng coin! The demigod Sai Fei'er thought angrily.

Lin Yi took the things Zhu Xing brought: "That's all for you, go have fun~"

Chasing Stars: "Oh~"

Chasing Star left decisively without the slightest hesitation, eager to play with the newly arrived toys and make some modifications.

Lin Yi suddenly remembered the two dying guys brought back by the immortal ship and called out to Zhu Xing: "Oh right, how are Lancelot and Ruoyue?"

Zhu Xing: "Sister Ruan Mei has roughly treated their injuries. They are not dead, but the residual destructive energy in their bodies needs to be treated in a complicated way. There is no need to rush."

Lin Yi waved his hand: "Alright, it's really nothing now, go ahead."

Lin Yi adjusted the memory bubble. After a rough check and finding no problems, he transformed the information and fed it into a special-purpose "synesthetic beacon," then waved to Sai Fei'er.

Lin Yi: "Hey you, native cat. Come here, give me your hand, let me teach you some basic cosmic knowledge."

Sephiroth: "I don't want a shot~ And! I'm not a native cat, I have a name—Sephiroth or Sephiroth."

Only a coin tossed upwards remained, along with the lingering echo of Sai Fei'er's voice. As for Sai Fei'er herself? She had long since vanished without a trace.

Lin Yi closed his eyes, reached out and grabbed her from the edge of the residence.

Lin Yi was somewhat approving: "That speed is impressive. It's almost like a spatial leap to teleport with pure speed. If this weren't an independent space, I don't know how far you would have to run."

With a hint of disdain, she said, "You're such a grown-up, why are you afraid of needles? Hurry up and hold out your hand, don't dawdle. Don't worry, this is a 'synesthetic beacon,' you won't feel anything."

Saifeier closed her eyes and shouted.

"Eh~ It doesn't hurt at all. Wait... what is a Star God... a celestial being with a spirit... the embodiment of philosophy..."
