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

“‘Come if you want to,’ these were his last words. He sighed, understanding what kind of people the wandering knights were, and knowing they would all come.”

"As the person who fired that shot that was destined to kill many people, he believed he should be the first to step forward and fight."

"At the moment the gun was fired, countless meteors streaked across the sky. The meteors in the sky were boundless, gathering like grains of sand forming a tower, and converging into a torrent of hunting."

"The Star God of Hunting also appeared at that time. I don't know what He did, or maybe He did nothing at all. Perhaps He was just a backup plan for the wanderers."

"The God of my Pure Land also appeared to record all of this."

"That Annihilation Lord Zhuluo was fortunate enough to face a new breeding swarm of insects that possessed the resilience of the Abundant People, intelligence, but an intensified bloodlust, and a high resistance to destruction."

"The Ranger has initiated Plan Two, which is both the backup plan and the final plan."

"One after another, 'meteors' streaked down, crashing into Zhuluo, launching a desperate attack, all to disrupt Zhuluo's movements, correct his direction, and trap him firmly in the center of the swarm, which is also the center of the battlefield."

"Give him no chance to leave the battlefield, force him to continue fighting the swarm. As long as one Ranger remains, he will not be able to leave the battlefield."

"This is also the universally recognized war of exterminating Luo."

"The battle lasted for an unknown period of time. The actual engagement should have lasted for about three system hours. The calculated arrival of the Void Shadow was much later than expected, but thankfully it finally came."

"The shadow of nothingness enveloped the battlefield. Just as planned, after a terrifying explosion for no apparent reason, Zhuluo, the insect swarm, the ranger, and the molten knight all fell into the sea of ​​death in the shadow of nothingness, sinking towards the black sun of nothingness."

"They succeeded, they triumphed, they defeated and killed Zhuluo with their wisdom and their determination to die."

"This is the first and only case to date where a Fate Walker has killed a Commander."

"The price was that the number of the rangers summoned by the attack of the reverse time was less than one-tenth, and they were severely injured. Even the leader of the righteous heroes was killed on the battlefield. The patrol rangers will be silent for a long time, and only two people survived in the small group of rangers who organized the expedition."

"The nameless man of yesterday, the knight-errant of today—Borrecklin Tirnan, and the knight-errant Loretta."

"Unfortunately, after the war, Tirnan disappeared after being given that bullet that symbolized a chivalrous hero, and no one knows where he went."

"Loretta is still active in the galaxy, currently calling upon courageous and righteous individuals in the civilized world of 'Shin' to come and help the vanguard of civilization resist destruction."

"Ah, the topic has gone a bit off track, and the narrative has become a little complicated. I hope you don't mind."

"On the contrary, I hope it is as detailed as possible. There is not much recorded in this history. If I learn more from you, I can input the information into a simulated universe to make a differential universe and study that history with high research value."

Lin Yi praised the intricate narrative.

"I've already thought of a name for this Differential Universe project: 'Differential Universe - A Thousand Stars Chasing the Sun.' It should reveal a lot of interesting things."

"Hmm, this is bad. It seems too early to be thinking about differential universes before the simulated universe testers are even in place."

"Of course, if there isn't enough information, I wouldn't mind putting you into a simulated universe. After all, you know and have seen quite a lot, don't you?"

While brainstorming new projects, Lin Yi couldn't resist joking and teasing the Memory Master again.

Only Lin Yi himself knew how much of that joke was genuine and how much was serious.

"Pfft, just kidding. Look how nervous you are. We've been colleagues, so we're friends. Besides, I won't take my grudges against Liuguang Yiting to every other Memory Master."

Seeing Zhili's tense expression, as if she was about to run away at any moment, Lin Yi smiled to ease the atmosphere.

"But we're almost at the top of the tower, yet the story doesn't seem to have officially begun yet. The real story is probably still in its prelude, right?" Lin Yi asked again.

Zhili chose to answer with the sequel to the story.

"During the campaign to exterminate the Luo, I made several brief appearances and exchanges with those Gram Iron Cavalry members, and reached a deal with them."

"The details of the transaction are not important, and it is their privacy. I promised them I would keep it confidential, so please forgive me for not being able to tell them."

"In exchange, I gained their memories—extremely precious and invaluable memories."

"And their memories reveal an even more precious memory, the memory of a civilization, Alterac, a unique civilization."

"Born in a special time and inheriting special technology, they were forced by a turbulent environment to embark on a path different from normal civilization. Their path was more extreme, and they took unconventional measures only for the survival of civilization."

"But they still perished." ×2

Lin Yi couldn't help but interrupt again, but Zhi Li didn't say anything and continued telling the story.

"You're right, they still perished, destroyed by the stellar core. The core infected their star, causing it to emit an extremely strong radiation that is harmful to all animals at all times."

“Animals exposed to this radiation will die in a very short time, but plants are unaffected and even thrive.”

"To ensure the survival of their civilization, they built a towering structure that reached into the sky—the 'Great Curtain Tower.' The Great Curtain Tower created a special energy barrier to shield the heavens and isolate all light and heat."

"The importance of a star's influence to a planet and the civilization on it is beyond doubt."

"I don't know what happened next, I only know that Alterac has been destroyed."

"In the eight, no, nine Amber Ages since I started trading with those Gram Iron Cavalry, whenever I wanted to travel to that civilization to retrieve its memories, I was always delayed by all sorts of trivial matters."

"Until Alterac fell, all the troubles that had been preventing me from going there seemed to disappear along with it, and I don't want to believe it's a coincidence."

"Nine Amber Periods passed during which I was not worried at all, because the lifespan of a civilization is far beyond that of an individual life. Nine Amber Periods is a very long time for an individual, but a very short time for a civilization. It is not a big deal."

"It wasn't until its demise that I realized there seemed to be a hidden hand manipulating everything, elusive and imperceptible."

"After Alterac fell, I investigated and inquired from various sources, but that's all I could find out. It was completely destroyed, and no one knows exactly what happened back then."

"Until later, by chance, I learned about the existence of a group of Alterac people. It was neither too early nor too late, as if some unseen force was guiding me here."

"I had just arrived and hadn't yet uncovered the true truth when you arrived. It's another coincidence, isn't it?"

Zhi Li stared at Lin Yi with a meaningful look in her eyes.

Lin Yi saw the hidden meaning in Zhi Li's eyes, but it was all Zhi Li's illusion. He had only been in Beng Tie for a few years, and the cause and effect of this incident had been going on for countless Amber Ages.

"You'll know what happened next; the story ends here."

"The above-ground part of this tower is very similar in shape to the Great Curtain Tower, only much shorter. The king chosen by the people of Alterac—Dekalla—lives at the top of the tower. Now I have told you everything I know."

Just as Zhili finished speaking the last word, Lin Yi and his group arrived at the gate leading to the top of the tower.

It's clear that this is a rhythm that Zhili has carefully calculated; his sense of rhythm is excellent.

The three of them stopped in their tracks at the same time.

Zhi Li looked at Lin Yi and asked, "So, do you want to go in?"

Lin Yi responded with classics

"Since we're already here..."

Dongfang Qiqing remained silent. It wasn't her place to make decisions here; she would just be a good, invisible person.

Lin Yi was the first to push open the door and enter. A stirring melody rang in his ears. The music was uplifting and inspiring. It was a very exciting piece of music.

Lin Yi turned around and saw that Dongfang Qiqing had taken out a speaker that automatically floated and followed him from somewhere.

The music was coming from the sound system.

Lin Yi was filled with question marks.

"What...what are you doing?"

She's such a normal and dignified girl, how come she's acting so abstractly?

So, is it really true that those who are close to the stars become stars? The problem is, chasing stars doesn't make you a star!

"Uh... well, I was live-streaming the whole thing to Zhuxing, and he told me to take this out and play music."

"She said that background music should be played during these boss-like battles."

Dongfang Qiqing offered a somewhat embarrassed explanation.

"You believe everything she says?"

Dongfang Qiqing finally realized what was going on. Yes! Why did she believe everything Zhu Xing said?

This is clearly not normal!

They are clearly 'sneaking in' now. Although they are walking in openly and swaggeringly, it still counts as sneaking in.

Who would sneak in while playing music the whole way?

"It seems that the anti-model cannot resist the emotional contagion from pleasure, or rather, cannot resist the emotional contagion from pleasure, which is normal."

Lin Yi muttered something while rubbing his chin.

"Don't worry, it's just that Zhu Xing is experimenting on you," Lin Yi said, taking a deep breath.

"Hey, give me the live streaming equipment~ Never mind, I'll just make a phone call. I need to have a good chat with Zhu Xing to prevent her from becoming more like Aha."

A few minutes later, Lin Yi regained his composure. What family doesn't have a mischievous kid?

Dongfang Qiqing secretly made a video call to Zhuxing. In the video, Zhuxing clearly had a long face and was very unhappy. She didn't dare to ask what had happened.

But as they moved forward, their steps became lighter, and they secretly hummed a song, a smug smile creeping across their faces.

As it turns out, smiles don't disappear, they just shift; in situations that aren't disasters, schadenfreude is an unavoidable human trait.

"Let's go. We've taught the bastards a lesson. Since we've already been exposed, let's be open about it. There's an assassin organization here, and their creed is..."

"Nothing is true, everything is permitted."

"Their methods of stealth assassination were also unique, achieving a perfect assassination without being detected by killing everyone who witnessed them."

"I think we can learn from this; perfect infiltration isn't actually that difficult."

People were already on their way, and it was normal that someone would come to search since the music they had heard earlier had been detected.

Even if you speak softly, the "Nightmare Ring" can still cover it up. But with such loud music, no matter how good the "Nightmare Ring" is, it won't work.

The group that arrived stopped Lin Yi and his party. They had been drawn here by the music to investigate, and since Lin Yi and his party were no longer hiding, it was normal for them to be stopped.

Lin Yi first looked at Zhi Li.

Seemingly knowing what Lin Yi was thinking, Zhi Li replied immediately: "I am a Memory Being, and I have a meme body, so I am really not good at fighting."

Lin Yi looked at himself again and said with certainty, "I am a scholar and I am not good at martial arts."

Lin Yi then looked at Dongfang Qiqing, and before Dongfang Qiqing could speak, he clenched his left fist and punched his right palm, revealing a very confident and sure-fire expression.

"It's decided, you're the one. Go, Dongfang Qiqing, wipe them all out."

"Ah I?!"

"Elderly person's mobile phone on the subway (JPG)."

"Benboerba JPG."

As expected, Dongfang Qiqing showed this expression, and Lin Yi smiled knowingly.

What kind of decent person can get along with Aha?

"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. Let me think about what methods to use."

"I've got it! How about we banish them to a star?"

Lin Yi spoke terrifying words with a calm expression.

Upon hearing this, even though they didn't know if it was true or not, the guards had already raised their guns, ready to strike first.

"Let them in"

A young male voice rang out.

"Finally stopped pretending to be dead? Let's go in."

Lin Yi dropped his joking expression and became serious.

Zhili continued to smile, as if what had just happened was not worth caring about.

Dongfang Qiqing responded with an "Oh," blindly following in a daze.

"Greetings, travelers from afar! I am Dekkar, the new king of Alterac Valley!"

Inside, there was a dimly lit hall covered in dust.

A young man sat reclining on the throne, his chin resting on his hand. The area around the throne was clean and bright, a stark contrast to the dimly lit hall, as if they were two different worlds.

He sat up straight when he saw Lin Yi and his group enter, but did not get up.

"Please forgive me for not being able to rise and greet you, three distinguished guests from afar." The young man turned slightly to the side, revealing the various pipes connecting his body.

The young man spoke in a gentle and humble manner, but before Lin Yi and his group could speak, he did so.

"You three, please take a seat."

The young man raised his hand in invitation, and three chairs and a magnificent long table rose from the clean and tidy ground in front of him.
