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

Seeing Welt's stunned expression, Himeko stepped forward to comfort him: "Speaking of which, Welt, you were just like this when you first met me."

Himeko: "I don't know if this time it's someone you know or a stranger who looks like that person. But if you want to go and see, the train crew can change the itinerary a little."

Walter regained his composure and gradually calmed down: "No need. I was just overreacting. That guy couldn't possibly still be alive."

March 7: "Uncle Yang, who exactly is that guy who could turn such a composed senior like you into this?"

"He is the kind of person who is very, very..."

Walter couldn't find a suitable adjective to describe Otto for a moment.

Walter Young: "Never mind, you'll understand in March after I tell you what he's been doing."

March 7th: "Alright then, Uncle Yang."

March 7th stood opposite Qiong with her hands on her hips, just like Qiong.

Round Three - Begins

March 7th: "Hmph~ You've passed Danheng and Uncle Yang's test, but you haven't passed mine yet~"

Qiong: "I've read through your diary~"

March 7th's expression changed repeatedly: "Stop! Don't say anything! You've passed! Don't tell anyone! Do you think our future relationship will be that good?!"

Will the abstract Qiong be obedient?

Of course not—

Qiong said in a strange tone, "You are the last survivor of Adrefin from the Diamond World, the last princess... Ugh—ugh—ugh, let me go, I won't say anything more, just let me go!"

On March 7th, she fiercely pounced on Qiong and covered her mouth.

March 7th: "I'm going to burn my diary when I get back! I'll remember this grudge!"

March 7th was very fortunate that she had covered Qiong's mouth, otherwise she probably would have wanted to dig a hole with her toes.

Then he wrapped himself in six-phase ice, threw himself in, and buried himself there, thus isolating himself from the world.

Finally, Sora looked at Himeko.

Himeko: "I don't need to. Anyone who wants to board the Star Train is welcome to be its navigator."

Debate over – a great success!

This is a lie! Himeko said she didn't need it because she was afraid her own secrets would be exposed.

Himeko: "Whether you are truly a nameless traveler who returned to the present from the future or not, this is a new beginning."

"We can encounter familiar or unfamiliar people on this new journey. We can leave our pioneering footprints once again in the footsteps of those who came before us."

"Welcome to the Starry Sky Train!"

Qiong also reached out and shook hands with him.

March 7: "Welcome to the Starry Sky Train"

Dan Heng: "...Welcome."

Himeko then looked at Hoshi: "And what about you? If you still have doubts, you don't need to rush to give me an answer."

Xing replied decisively: "I'll join too!"

Although Xing only has a general understanding of the Star Train so far, the details are not clear.

But since the guy she was born with has joined, she'll join too.

March clapped: "Great! The train crew has two more new members."

After another round of casual conversation among the train crew—

Lin Yi: "Gentlemen, please allow me to interrupt for a moment."

At this moment, Lin Yi arrived at the platform, with Estádio following behind him.

With the Black Tower absent, Estádio naturally came to greet them personally.

She's been treated like a shared beast of burden before.

Heaven knows how overjoyed Estella was when she saw Lin Yi, after just moments before worrying about the chaos on the space station.

Estelle immediately dropped everything and made welcoming the genius her top priority.

As long as the genius is treated well, nothing else matters.

And just as Estelle had predicted, upon learning of the arrival of a genius at the space station, the station's crew, initially in chaos due to the Legion's invasion, immediately calmed down, methodically repairing the defense systems and activating their self-defense weapons.

Even though Lin Yi did nothing, and they could have done it even without him, it's as if only the presence of a genius gives them the confidence to act.

No wonder Ladio came to the space station to cure his chronic dullness.

Chapter Two: During the Day

Chapter 144 Qiong: Where did the Genius Club get #85?

Judging solely by their intelligence, the crew members on these space stations are either outstanding individuals or stubborn and dull-witted fools.

They have developed a dependency, and once abandoned by the Black Tower, they will be helpless. They are far from being like these clerks when they first arrived at the space station.

What about... the space city?

Could it be the same?

But that doesn't matter anymore, we'll just call a bunch of doctors later~

Lin Yi greeted Himeko: "Ms. Himeko, it's been a long time."

Himeko: "Mr. Lin Yi, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to be at the Black Tower Space Station as well."

Lin Yi glanced at the people next to him; it was astonishing how harmoniously the two-dimensional world could be transformed into the three-dimensional world.

Lin Yi: "These must be Walter, Danheng, and March 7th."

March 7: "Wow, it really is Mr. Lin Yi from Genius Club #85. I heard you were a guest on the Starry Sky Train."

The existence of the Abyss has not yet been made public. Currently, experiments are being conducted to see if the knowledge of the Abyss held by Rosgomun and others will fade away over time.

This is to verify whether Ahab's blessing truly offsets the subtle influence of nothingness.

So Lin Yi is still #85.

March 7: "It's a pity I hadn't boarded the Starry Sky Train when you were on it. Could you sign your name for me?"

On March 7th, I took out a copy of "Travel Notes".

This is a book compiled by Lin Yi in his spare time, recording his experiences and observations during his travels and explorations.

Each site was described in great detail, and Lin Yi was not short of money at all. Many of the things recorded in the book were things that ordinary people could hardly understand.

Therefore, this book has become a global bestseller and is hailed as an essential guide for traveling to the stars.

In addition to the observations, there were also photos attached, and those photos were actually quite special; they were all original artworks of the Light Cone.

"Moment of Eternity" truly lives up to its reputation as a marvel created based on "Divine Face"; its pure and beautiful aesthetics are simply beyond reproach.

The original artwork for each light cone is a masterpiece.

Lin Yi smiled gently: "An autograph? Of course, but I don't really like the term 'guest.' According to the Starry Sky Train, everyone who has boarded and traveled with us is an anonymous guest."

"I also boarded the train and traveled to the same station, so I can be considered an anonymous passenger. Pam didn't erase me from the list~"

"Although I'm not on the train, who says that exploring the boundaries of knowledge doesn't count as exploration?"

Himeko: "Mr. Lin Yi is right. There has never been a rule that only those on the train are nameless passengers."

At this moment, Lin Yi turned his head and saw the train tickets pinned to the corners of Xing and Qiong's clothes. Lin Yi understood that the two of them had chosen to join the Starry Sky Train.

Xing was alright, she just stared blankly at Lin Yi like he was a complete stranger.

Qiong's face was filled with confusion and bewilderment. Genius Club #85? Is there such a person? Isn't there only 84 seats?

Is this still the past? My head is itching! I need to get a brain...

Lin Yi took the initiative to speak, breaking the awkward silence and explaining the cause and effect: "Hello, pioneer from another world."

Walter took a half-step forward out of politeness to greet him, thinking that Lin Yi was talking to him. But when he saw that Lin Yi was staring at Qiong while he was speaking, he quietly retreated.

Qiong: "Who are you? I don't recognize you."

Xing thought for a moment, then mimicked Qiong's actions: "I don't know you either."

March 7th secretly tugged at him and whispered, "Hey, at least show some politeness to a genius."

Lin Yi smiled wryly: "It's alright, he probably really doesn't recognize me. From what you said, I roughly know that I don't exist in the other world, which is exactly what I expected."

"There's another one, but you've only just been born, so of course you don't know me."

“I know you have a lot of questions, and I will explain them to you, but Black Tower hopes that the two of you can help test the simulated universe. We can talk as we go.”

“The train crew are considered family members, and they can accompany us to learn more if they want, except for the simulated space test.”

Himeko: "In that case, Welt and I will accompany you. You two are free to do as you please."

March 7: "But Sister Himeko, I also want to go and see."

Himeko: "Then let's all go together."

Lin Yi: "Whatever you say."

Lin Yi: "I conducted an experiment before the two systems were in operation. The detailed principles are difficult to explain now. Basically, I combined the technologies of two other geniuses to complete an experiment that broke through the limitations of time and space."

"Does this time seem familiar? That's right, it's the time you were born."

Walter Young: "Born?"

Lin Yi waved his hand: "Don't ask me about the details, it has nothing to do with me. I'm just using this incident to push the top leader to complete an experiment."

"Note that the experiment is about breaking through spacetime, not time. In other words, you, Qiong, are not from the future, but from another universe that does not belong to the universe within the wall in the conventional sense."

"The success of this experiment signifies a major breakthrough in the model of the universe, and the unknown boundaries of knowledge have been expanded countless times."

Qiong murmured softly, "It's not the reversal of time, but the convergence of different universes..."

Qiong: "So the Star Train here isn't the Star Train I know?"

Lin Yi nodded: "Yes."

Qiong's expression shifted from abstract to urgent: "How am I supposed to get back? Danheng is waiting for me! Sanyue is also frozen and her fate is unknown. I must go back!"

As expected of an unnamed passenger on the Star Train, his first thought was for his companions.

Lin Yi was stunned and then fell silent. He had only considered bringing in a Star Core Essence, but had not considered whether the other party was willing.

Now, when Qiong mentions Lin Yi, he realizes that Qiong has his own social life and his own friends.

Bringing him to this unfamiliar universe seems a bit too... domineering?

No, no, when has he ever been so reasonable?

Lin Yi: "How do I go back? I don't know either. Even if I did, you are now the anchor connecting the two worlds. Before a new anchor is established, I can't let you go back easily."

"As for your companions over there? Don't worry, they're all anchor points, so they're naturally anchored in time and space. When you go back, you'll return to the time you left."

"To cooperate with my research and enjoy the pioneering achievements that even Achievli never accomplished... well, it seems that's not necessarily true."

Lin Yi really didn't dare to say that now. If he could do it, how could Akivili not do it?

Lin Yi: "In short, every step you take now will add countless fuel to the Star Train you once belonged to."

"And I can promise you that when I have the opportunity to send you back, I will give you a very generous reward. For example, research on entropy loss; or if I have the opportunity to help you check on March 7th."

"For example, I can promise you a condition, and in the process you can make some requests to me, and I will agree to anything that is not excessive."

I'll sort out the timeline, for example, when exactly did events that were no longer part of the main storyline, such as "The Crown of the Gods" and "The Tale of the Mediocre" occur?

The space station and space city are written as small-scale activities.

Chapter 145 Qiong: No one knows better than me how to test a simulated universe

Qiong: "Anything is fine?"

Lin Yi: "Don't worry about whether I can do it or not. You should understand that as a genius, most of the world's wishes can be fulfilled for you."

Qiong: "I want a star destroyer."
