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

"If you want to get along well with Stephen, you should keep some 'Stephen bait' on hand, which is fruit jelly. Watermelon jelly and strawberry jelly are best, but not pumpkin jelly."

"Prepare a 'Stephen's Bait,' and you can catch a Stephen to do you a small favor—a very cost-effective exchange."

Lin Yi glanced at Stephen: "This is Ruan Mei's daily summary, and no one but a genius knows about it."

This was something Ruan Mei discovered little by little through trial and error; it's Stephen's secret treasure!

They even figured out the flavors.

If the company knew how lucrative the business was, they would probably go crazy.

Stephen had already squatted down and was making circles, looking emo.

He felt like he had been thoroughly investigated.

Chadwick: "Uh...is that so?"

Lin Yi casually took out a thin booklet: "I'll also give you a Stephen user guide that I, Heita, and Ruan Mei compiled together."

Stephen has become even more emo; he's really been figured out.

Chadwick solemnly removed his hat, treating Stephen like a child at all: "Well then... greetings to you, Mr. Stephen."

Stephen said in a voice tinged with extreme shame and resignation, "Um, Stephen Lloyd, greetings. And... I prefer the strawberry flavor of 'Stephen's Bait'."

This is another extremely difficult long sentence for Stephen.

Stephen emphasized the words "Stephen's bait."

Lin Yi: "It seems that social anxiety can indeed be effectively eliminated."

Stephen let out a defiant "Hmph~"

I estimate I won't be talking to Lin Yi for quite a few days.

Because of the cognitive filter, Lin Yi couldn't see Stephen's true expression.

However, completely eliminating social anxiety remains a long and arduous journey.

This lighthearted and humorous introduction, a joke that can only be made between close friends, effectively eliminated the initial awkwardness between Chadwick and Lin Yi.

This helped Chadwick integrate into the group.

Chapter 353 Sculpting the Body

Appropriate enjoyment is a good way to foster harmonious relationships between strangers, of course, at the cost of a small sacrifice for Stephen.

Lin Yi: "A more specific understanding can be gained through future interactions."

“Now… we need to think about how to get Chadwick out of his current state of being in a dream bubble. Otherwise, he won’t even be able to act independently outside of Pinocchio’s dream.”

"This isn't difficult at all; we have a ready-made Abundance Divine Fruit. Although I don't know where the company got it, it just so happens to come in handy."

"Ruan Mei will cooperate with me later to use this unknown abundant divine substance to sculpt a suitable and perfect body."

"Black Tower and Screw, you two go to the real-world 'Daydream Hotel' and do some processing on the memory bubble containing Chadwick, changing its form so that it no longer maintains its memory bubble form."

Lin Yi: "Chadwick's memory bubble isn't very convenient to detach from Pinocchio, so let's proceed here."

Lin didn't make a complete decision on his own: "Chadwick, what do you think? Screw Goom has the source code of the soul, and everyone here is 'very familiar' with memory matter."

"The memory essence within the memory bubble is, in a sense, a soul; they go to repair it and incidentally transform its form."

“Ruan Mei and I will use this abundant divine fruit to shape a body for you.”

"You can 'eat' it directly if you want, as the power of abundance is enough to rejuvenate you, but I don't really recommend doing so."

Chadwick bowed slightly: "I owe you all a favor."

Lin Yi waved his hand: "This kind of small thing doesn't take much time or cause any damage. It's not really a favor; it's just helping each other out."

"If we're really talking about personal favors, there's another way—"

Chadwick asked curiously, "What's that?"

Lin Yi presented the "Phase Walker," and at Lin Yi's instruction, the abundant branches that seemed to be entwined around it stretched out as if they had come alive.

Then it slowly subsided and wrapped itself back up.

Lin Yi: "Yes, this is it, the abundant branch. I still have one more chance to meet the 'God of Abundance,' as promised."

"If you are not satisfied with the body we have rubbed, then I can also pray to the apothecary to bestow a blessing upon you, so that you may be reborn under the abundant rain and dew."

"The price is that you'll owe me a huge favor, until you feel in your heart that you can repay it."

Lin Yi encouraged, "What do you think? Do you want to choose this option? Being reborn under the blessing of the Star God is definitely perfect."

Chadwick was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile: "What have I done to deserve this? A chance to meet the Star God is wasted on a wraith like me... what a waste..."

Lin Yi felt a little regretful that he couldn't take this opportunity to have another almost permanent employee.

Given Chadwick's morality, the idea that he could, based on his own conscience, repay such an abstract thing as a divine gift from the stars is itself a huge pitfall.

Lin Yi: "Alright then, let's begin!"

They exchanged a glance, and the figures of Black Tower and Screw gradually faded and disappeared, as they were expelling this dream.

Abyss is much less troublesome. She doesn't have a real physical body. With a flash of quantum ripples, she has already appeared in the Daydream Hotel in reality and is waiting for you.

The treatment of the "memory bubble" should not be done too early or too late. It is best to do it in sync with body shaping.

Abyss was able to seize opportunities by getting involved with Lin Yi.

Stephen stayed to help, and Yu Qingtu also chose to stay and help.

Lin Yi appeared with a crown of thorns on his head, using his abundant power to guide the endless vitality hidden within the divine reality to break free from the shackles of the divine reality itself, burst forth, and shape it.

The invisible life force and the flesh of the divine fruit flowed freely with the movement of Lin Yi's fingertips, like a lump of clay that could be sculpted at will.

Ruan Mei began to develop a basic plan and template from scratch based on the Chadwick gene and evolutionary map in front of her.

Yu Qingtu suggested that there was no need to use the Abundance Divine Fruit alone, as it would leave too much of an impression of abundance and make it difficult to fully unleash the power of the divine fruit. He suggested adding something else to neutralize it.

She and Ruan Mei worked together. Ruan Mei listed the results of gene compilation and the final human predictions, while Yu Qingtu, based on this atlas, threw all sorts of random things into the muddy, solid object in front of Lin.

Then, using that glass rod that symbolizes 'harmony,' stir it around.

Ruan Mei readjusted the plan based on the new clay, and Yu Qingtu added some materials again.

Ruan Mei and Yu Qingtu are like adding flour when there's too much water, or adding water when there's too much flour.

Lin Yi was also constantly stimulating that pure life force, and the mud ball itself was slowly and rhythmically expanding.

After three minutes of 'mixing the filling', the life essence that would become Chadwick's new body was ready.

Chadwick watched the whole thing from the sidelines. If it weren't for the fact that these people were geniuses, he would have really suspected that this was some kind of evil potion from an evil wizard.

Although he did not study life sciences much, the cultivation of a well-fitting body should take time and effort in complex instruments, right?

What is this indescribable fluid?

And it's only been three minutes...

Stephen then occasionally gestured to Chadwick, and occasionally gestured to the lump of mud.

Then he put on some unknown gloves and kneaded something from a distance.

Stephen was the true shaper, while Lin Yi was the one who made this thing obey.

A few dozen seconds later, a lifelike Chadwick appeared, which Stephen then dismantled and started over, even though it looked like a perfect work.

Stephen made a peace sign and cut in the air, throwing in some unseen, invisible substance and reshaping it.

Stephen said to Lin Yi, "Draw off one-third of your life force and throw it away."

A little over a minute later, a Chadwick who looked exactly the same as before appeared.

The body was formed from the life force of abundant divine essence and all sorts of random things, while the divine essence itself, stripped of its life force, was used to make this garment.

Lin Yi used his abundant power to shape this mold, making it irreplaceable, and locked away its abundant vitality, letting it lie dormant within him.

Chadwick looked at the young man in front of him, somewhat dazed.

How casual! But this body seemed to have a strange attraction for him.

If this creation were to be compared to a painting...

Ruan Mei is the one whose requirements were given by the question setter.

Yu Qingtu prepared painting tools and pigments.

Stephen specifies which paint and which brush to use for which area, and how much pressure to apply.

Then, under Stephen's guidance, Lin Yi painted and completed the painting.

Chapter 354 The Master of the Mask

Lin Yi patted Chadwick on the shoulder: "Alright, stop standing there. The Black Tower screws are all taken care of. What's holding you together now is no longer the memory bubble. Hurry up and get into this body, or you'll get hurt."

The heads of the Pinocchio family now have mixed feelings.

Previously, a hunting dog reported that it was impossible to enter "Dream Border". The entire "Dream Border" seemed to have been stripped of the main body of the "Pinocchio" synesthetic dream.

The first reaction of the family heads was that things were not good. Chadwick was still inside, and there was no guarantee that some people who couldn't stand to see Pinocchio doing well would try to sabotage it.

At this critical juncture, if that powder keg Chadwick were to have an accident with "Pinocconi," they dared not even imagine the consequences.

I tried several times but couldn't find the entrance to "Dream Frontier".

After several attempts, Don Wyatt, the very Tang-like hound owner, came up with another idea: to pull Chadwick out of the dream world through the dream bubble in the real hotel.

Well, after leaving, a certain mobile credit point did not inform "Pinocchio" that the genius had arrived.

All I can say is that if Don Wyatt hadn't already been the fourth-generation head of the family, the others would have really wanted to send this brainless guy to take the fall and shoulder the blame.

Fortunately, news soon came from the front desk of the Daydream Hotel: it wasn't that something had happened to Chadwick, but that the geniuses had already arrived at "Pinocchoni" and were already dreaming...

Huh?! Genius has reached Pinocchio?! And he's already in his dreams?

Black Tower Screws didn't pay much attention to "Pinocconny," only asking them to lead the way to Chadwick's memory bubble.

This is something that makes the top executives of Pinocone both relieved and uneasy.

On the border of dreams, Abyss, Black Tower, and Screw Gum are back.

Lin Yi: "How are you feeling?"

Chadwick shifted his body slightly: "It's subtle, or rather... it feels the same as when I was truly alive in reality. The Dreamland is also repelling me."

Chadwick exclaimed, "A long-lost feeling..."

Ruan Mei lightly tapped a small light screen: "Gene comparison complete, body completion is good, and the match with consciousness is normal. It is expected to be fully compatible after a few system cycles of adjustment."

"Chadwick's new life has been a great success."

Lin Yi handed over a storage device: "There's still some compensation left from the company. Theoretically, this should belong to you. After you've packed it all up, let's talk somewhere else."

"Whether it's my Divine Firmament Space City, other places, or even the 'Banquet Dimension'? Compared to the extravagance and noise of Pinocchio, I still prefer other places, at least there won't be wave after wave of disturbances."

"Pinocone's hounds have been trying to knock on the door outside many times."

Chadwick shook his head: "I have no face to take these things. They should belong to everyone. You should divide them up."

With that said, Lin Yi and his group wouldn't politely decline; the idea of ​​repeatedly declining or refusing was completely out of the question.

If you dare to be polite, Lin Yi and the others will accept it without any qualms, without being pretentious at all.

Of course, Chadwick wasn't just being polite.

This time, Lin Yi took the fragment of the "Original Codex of Order".

It is said that these were the original laws established by the God of Order for the Land of Order's Protection.

There are only some basic rules of order, similar to a three-point agreement.

Lin Yi thought this thing might be used to strengthen "Sword Overhead" and update its judgment.

Standards of good and evil, moral standards, and population size... a complex system may not necessarily be able to compete with the power of order.

Whether they can integrate remains to be seen and requires further investigation.

After everyone had chosen one item, there was still one item left that no one had chosen—the Broken Fool's Mask.

A series of very fake sobs came from the air: "Waaah~"
