The image of everyone becoming players seemed to emerge in his mind. Yu Qi curled the corners of his mouth slightly and was a little absent-minded for a moment.

It was not until his clothes tightened slightly, as if someone was pulling him, that Yu Qi came back to his senses. At the same time, an impatient voice rang in his ears: "Hey, I've called you several times, what are you thinking about, so serious?"

"Eh?" He looked down and noticed Heita, who was holding his clothes impatiently: "Heita?"

After putting away the crystal without leaving a trace, Yu Qi looked at the black tower in confusion: "I'm not thinking about anything. What, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"Yes, there is something." Without paying attention to Yu Qi's little action, Heita let go of his hand and said casually, "I have something good to talk to you about. I wanted to send you a message, but I couldn't find your contact information, so I had to come to you in person."

"Hurry up and go to my office. I'll be waiting for you!"

"Ah? What's the good news? Can you tell me about it?"

"Oh, I can't explain it clearly at the moment. Remember to go to my office!" Waving his hand, Heita turned around and walked back to the corner, standing without saying anything, as if he was too lazy to explain to Yu Qi.

Seeing her series of actions, Yu Qi was confused: "No, what's the matter? You are already here, just say no; and you are standing here, and let me go to your office?"

"Hey, Black Tower?" Waving his hand in front of the Black Tower, Yu Qi couldn't help but complain: "Don't play dumb, say something!"

However, facing Yu Qi's 'harassment', Heita just looked up at him impatiently: "Don't stare at my doll, do you have beautiful nostrils?"

"?"

"Hiss~" Startled by the strange words, Yu Qi reacted after a while: "Tsk, it really is a puppet for possession, I thought you were always like this!"

"Please, have some common sense~" As if realizing that Yu Qi had not yet been triggered, the Black Tower's consciousness came online again: "Although I don't care whether I am famous or not, but you have been in the space station for so long, normal people should know that I am a human, right? Who would have thought that a puppet would have its own consciousness? Do you think I am that mechanical head? Or do you think I am Screw Goom?"

"Ah, this..." Yu Qi smiled awkwardly and spread his hands: "But the problem is, I don't know the two people you mentioned, whether it's Robot Head or Screw Gumm!"

"I find that there is something wrong with your brain circuit? Is this the key point?" Glancing at Yu Qi, Heita seemed to have lost the desire to continue the conversation: "Okay, okay, remember to come to my office quickly!"

After saying that, he went offline again, and his consciousness left the puppet.

"...What a weird personality." He complained in a low voice, but Yu Qi didn't mind it too much. After all, in the second dimension, being tsundere and sharp-tongued is also considered cute~

Besides, he was the host and said he had good news for me... After thinking for a moment, Yu Qi decided to go to the Black Tower office.

On the other side, after separating from Yu Qi and the others, Xing simply pulled San Yueqi and ran straight to the trash can not far away.

"Hey, didn't you say you wanted to take a look around the space station? Why did you drag me here?" Looking around, Sanyueqi was a little confused: "Is there anything interesting here? A billboard? A potted plant? Or a beverage machine?"

"Hehe..." Without answering San Yueqi's question, Xing looked at the bucket in front of him with shining eyes.

The triangular body is so regular. Mathematical knowledge and the beauty of mechanics are perfectly combined in this small barrel, as if every inch of it is explaining the mysteries from the universe. The white body is not stained by dust, and every bit of garbage is firmly sealed in the barrel.

Facing Xing's gaze, the dark gap between the lid and the body of the trash can seemed to exude the breath of the abyss, tempting her and making her subconsciously take a step closer. A reassuring smell rushed into her nose, slightly pungent yet so fascinating.

In a trance, Xing seemed to see the trash can holding a pair of non-existent arms, staring at her sternly.

Garbage should stay in the trash can! This is the dignity of the trash can, and it must never be trampled upon!

Even if someone often throws garbage outside the trash can, even if someone tramples on the empty trash can at will, but at all times, it will stick to the pride of being the trash can, guarding all the garbage inside, preventing them from polluting the outside world, and even more so, it will not let the outside world disturb the peace that belongs to the garbage!

Frightened by the trash can's firm belief, Xing couldn't help but take a step back and took a deep breath. She looked at the trash can in front of her with admiration, and the greed in her eyes gradually faded away, replaced by another kind of desire!

It is the desire for treasures, the longing for the garbage that others have discarded!

Garbage is a treasure placed in the wrong place!

The expression on her face became extremely sincere, and Xing took another firm step towards the trash can. The light in her eyes was so shining that even the trash can couldn't help but admire her and be moved by her sincerity.

The non-existent arms slowly loosened, and the trash can opened its arms to Xing.

Garbage is something whose value is not recognized, but since someone needs it, the trash can will naturally not refuse to let it find its own value again!

Taking another step forward, Xing took a deep breath and raised her hand to place it on the pure white lid of the trash can. At this moment, she felt the encouraging gaze from the trash can.

Come on, it has nothing to do with belief, it has nothing to do with persistence - at this moment, the ideals of billions of garbage converge into a single ambition - open the lid of the barrel, this is - the inscription of "garbage"!

Her breathing became rapid and Xing's eyes became blurry. She could feel the heaviness of that gaze, carrying the dream of garbage and representing the dignity of the trash can!

'The garbage road is opened up again!'

His eyes suddenly became extremely determined, and Xing opened the lid of the trash can without hesitation. The moment the pure white lid was opened, a purple light suddenly appeared in Xing's eyes.

Firm and heavy, with an irresistible sense of security, the power of protection and the belief in the trash can are perfectly integrated at this moment, illuminating Xing's eyes!

It also illuminates the pioneering path of the stars!

"Ah?" Looking at the orange-yellow amber placed on the trash can full of garbage in confusion, March Seven felt his mind go blank.

From just now on, she couldn't understand what Xing was doing. He stood in front of the trash can for no apparent reason, as if struggling. Then, as if frightened by something, he moved back and forth for no apparent reason, and finally, he suddenly reached out and opened the lid of the trash can.

If she didn't know that Xing had no mental problems, she would really think that Xing had some mental illness!

But what made Sanyueqi even more confused was why there was such a thing in the trash can?

Although San Yue Qi had never seen this piece of amber before, the undisguised strong protective power on it allowed San Yue Qi to quickly guess its identity - according to legend, it was the material used by the Amber King Clipper to build walls!

According to historical records, this amber is a fragment of a wall that was accidentally shattered when the Amber King was fighting his enemies. It contains extremely powerful protective power, and even the company itself does not have many pieces.

but……

"Why is there something like this in the trash can?!"

"Hehe~" Carefully reaching out and taking out the amber, Xing happily raised it, turned to look at March Seven, and cheered: "Treasure, March, I've given out a reward!"

At this moment, the undisguised protective power had attracted the attention of many people. Esta, who was not far away, trotted over and looked at the amber held high in Xing's hand in astonishment.

"What is this?!" As the eldest daughter of the Interstellar Peace Company, Estelle had naturally seen the amber enshrined in the company's headquarters when she was a child. At this moment, she also recognized the origin of the amber in Xing's hand, and for a moment she couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Just when everyone was silent and only Xing was cheering, a playful voice broke the silence: "Hey~ Isn't this the junk that those people in the company treat as an heirloom? Xing Core kid, how did you get it?"

With brisk steps, Heita walked over in two or three steps and glanced at the crowd watching: "What are you looking at? Don't you have anything to do?"

Faced with Heita, a figure of ancestor level, many clerks naturally did not dare to offend him casually. They dispersed in groups of three or four to continue their work, looking back at this side as they walked.

Completely ignoring the looks of the staff, Heita came close to Xing and looked around her curiously: "Hey, Esta, I remember that your company doesn't have many of these things, right?"

"Ah, yes!" Awakened by Black Tower's words, Estelle nodded blankly: "The company didn't receive much grace from the Amber King."

Then, she turned to look at Xing: "Xing, if you don't need this piece of amber, can you sell it to me? I can buy it on behalf of the company at a suitable price!"

"what do you think?"

Chapter 227 Simulated Universe, Beginning

The transaction for this amber was not completed. It was not because the value given by Esther was not enough, but...

"Well, although I'm tempted, this is the first reward I've offered after all, so I still want to keep it as a collection." Xing decisively rejected Estelle's offer and carefully put the amber into his personal backpack.

"Okay~" Although she felt a little disappointed, Estelle didn't feel disappointed and nodded: "Well, next time if you can get similar materials and want to sell them, please remember to contact me!"

Patting her still plump chest, Esta said confidently: "I will definitely give you a satisfactory price!"

"Okay!"

"Hey, are you done?" Heita impatiently interrupted the conversation between the two. Heita stretched out his hand lazily and pointed at Xing: "You, go to my office now, and don't look at me like that. Don't worry, I'll find you something good!"

"Ah? What's the matter? You are right here, just tell me directly." Xing looked at the trash can beside him with a little reluctance. He didn't want to go to the black tower. After all, there were many "treasure chests" in this space station waiting for his visit.

"I have things to do here!"

"It's hard to explain right now. If your business is urgent, just do it first and come back to me when you're done!" Heita spread his hands indifferently, his attitude seemed perfunctory: "That's it, just remember to come to my moving company!"

In fact, according to Heita's original character, when she wanted Xing to help, even if Xing clearly refused, Heita would still pester her relentlessly, or even ask for help directly; but there was nothing she could do, because now there was someone who interested Heita far more than Xing.

Therefore, she could only let Xing go for the time being.

"Uh..." Watching Heita stagger back to the aisle and stand still, Xing thought for a moment, then walked over and asked, "Well, is there a reward?"

It's not that Xing didn't want to open the trash can, but she suddenly realized that the trash can was right there, and if she wanted to open it, she could open it anytime, but this "task" in the Black Tower might really be too late.

There are permanent rewards that can be kept for a short period of time, and time-limited tasks that cannot be started again once missed. Although Xing, as a 'newborn', has never played the game, her instinct still makes her make the most 'correct' choice.

Just as he was about to transfer his consciousness away, he suddenly heard Xing's question. Heita looked up at her and nodded: "Of course, I'm not the kind of black-hearted boss who makes people work 24 hours a day without paying them."

"If you help me, I will definitely pay you. Tell me, what do you want? Credit points? Ancient Dream Hua? Trace materials? Light cone? Relics? Or do you want the 'Plane Ornaments' that I made exclusively for you?"

"Wait a minute, what are these 'plane accessories' you just mentioned?" Xing was stunned for a moment when he suddenly heard a strange yet familiar word, and subconsciously clicked on his character attributes to take a look.

If she read it correctly, in the relics column on the character panel, the inner circle relics that have not yet been unlocked require "plane accessories", right?

"Oh, it's a plane ornament. It's an artificial relic I made using the principle of the rift. The data comes from the simulated universe. Well, that's what I want you to help me test this time."

Seeing Xing's intention, Heita smiled slightly and folded his arms: "How about it, are you interested? This is my exclusive invention, you can't find it anywhere else."

"Moreover, the plane ornament is an artificial relic that simulates the principle of the rift world, and the world that exists in theory can be encapsulated in it. Therefore, compared to normal relics, its power is naturally stronger and purer."

"Okay, that's all. If you're interested, come find me in my office."

After saying that, Heita's expression paused, and his consciousness had already left the doll. No matter how much Xing asked, he was too lazy to speak.

"So, you are going to help Black Tower now?" After watching the whole conversation between Xing and Black Tower, Sanyueqi looked at the puppet with some curiosity: "I don't know what happened that made Black Tower take the initiative to find you."

Of course, she was more curious about why the inner circle relics of the characters in the game could only use the "plane accessories" produced by the Black Tower. If the Black Tower did not ask them for help, wouldn't it mean that they, the players, would never be able to obtain plane accessories and would never be able to equip the inner circle relics?

"I don't know. We'll find out when we go over there and take a look."

After saying goodbye to Ester, Xing and Sanyueqi walked side by side towards the Black Tower office not far away.

…………

"Well, you're here at last."

"Ah? Black Tower?" Walking into the office, Xing looked at the Black Tower standing in the room and was stunned: "How come... you are too fast, weren't I still outside just now?"

"I didn't move." He rolled his eyes unhappily, then shook his arms, revealing the round puppet joints: "The body you see is a remote-controlled puppet I made. There are many of them in the space station. I'll transfer it to wherever you need it."

"Dolls?! There are so many of them?!" His eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something. The burning heat in his eyes scared Heita.

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense." Waving his hand, he wiped away the strange feeling in his heart, and Heita put his hands on his waist and introduced Xing: "As you can see, several colleagues and I are working on a big project. If successful, we can solve the ultimate problem that has troubled us for thousands of Amber Ages: the mystery of the "Star God". "

"'Star Gods' - just think about it, what a magical existence! Some of the Star Gods were once ordinary humans like you and me, but somehow they gained power beyond our imagination! They are mysterious, powerful, silent, and terrifying! The mystery of them cannot be explained in a few words."

Black Tower's words gradually became excited: "How were they born? Why were they born? What was the purpose of their birth? ... I ask you, Xing, have you ever thought about these questions?"

"? What does that have to do with me?" Xing said indifferently, but his eyes did not move away from the black tower at all: "I don't even know how many star gods there are, what they look like, and what they are called. Why should I care about the reasons for their birth? Do you have nothing better to do?"

"Well, what you said is not wrong. Star God and the like are indeed none of your business, but there is nothing we can do. Your situation is special and we need you." Seeing Xing's impatience, Heita thought of a way to appease her: "Be patient, Xing, ahem, Xing! I will give you benefits later!"

"What benefits?" Staring at Heita's petite figure, Xing's emotions were so passionate that Heita seemed to be infected by her, and his words became excited.

"As you can see..." Pointing to the huge machine in the office, Heita proudly introduced it: "This is a program written by four geniuses in the club. There is a universe in this machine: it is just like the world we live in, but it is more streamlined and more customized..."

"So, I call it..." Halfway through his words, Heita seemed to realize that he had strayed from the topic, so he paused and continued, "Well, you can just call it the 'simulated universe'."

"Come, stand here. The machine will read your brain waves and automatically match the immersive simulation system..."

When Yu Qi rushed to the Black Tower office, he just saw Xing log in and enter the simulated universe.

Although in terms of time, Black Tower found him first and then notified Xing, but Yu Qi had already walked to the support section by then, unlike Xing and the others who were still in the main control section, only a few steps away from Black Tower's office.

"Hey, Yu Qi, you're here too." Seeing Yu Qi walk in, San Yue Qi, who was standing aside watching the stars log into the simulated universe, greeted him and asked, "Could it be that the Black Tower is also looking for you to help test the simulated universe?"

"Testing, simulating the universe? What is that?" After a pause, Yu Qi walked to San Yue Qi's side, looked at Heita who was concentrating on operating the instrument not far away, subconsciously lowered his voice and asked: "What's going on? I only heard Heita say that she had something good to talk to me about, but I don't know what she wanted to talk to me about."

"Oh, that's right." After explaining the situation of the "simulated universe" to Yu Qi in detail, Sanyueqi opened the player panel and pointed: "Look, the plane accessories we need to equip here are the ones that can only be produced in the Black Tower."

"Is this so..."

As he was talking, the black tower over there also saw Yu Qi, and the action of operating the simulated universe stopped instantly: "You are here, tsk, you are a little late!"

Looking at the prepared Xing, and then at the confused Yu Qi, Heita sighed: "I was planning to let you be the first one to help me test the simulated universe."

"Ah, this, it's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

…………

There was a flash of white light, and Xing felt his eyes light up. When his vision returned, he found himself at the platform passage of the support section. He looked around at the empty platform, and was a little confused: "Black Tower?"

"Hello, hello, Xing, can you hear me?" Black Tower's voice suddenly sounded in his ears. Xing nodded instinctively, but his eyes involuntarily looked at a supply box placed on the side of the road not far away. It was a box used to store supplies in the Black Tower space station. Xing had seen quite a few on the roadside before, but had never paid much attention to it.

But for some reason, standing in the simulated universe at this moment, Xing always had an urge in his heart to swing the bat in his hand and smash the supply box to pieces...

"Bang~"

"Hey, what are you doing?" Heita's helpless voice suddenly rang out, waking Xing up. Only then did he realize that he had unknowingly swung the baseball bat and smashed the supply box in front of him to pieces.

Heita had no idea what Xing meant by this. Just as he was about to speak, his eyes swept across the screen beside him, and his expression suddenly changed: "Wait? This is impossible? How could this be?!"

"In the simulated universe, an extra piece of data suddenly appeared out of thin air? How is it possible..." After checking the system quickly and unbelievably, Black Tower confirmed again and again that this piece of data did appear out of thin air in the system - at the moment when Xing smashed the supply box!

Subconsciously, he looked up at the simulated universe. At this moment, the screen showed that Xing was rummaging through a broken supply box. When the debris was pulled away, a piece of paper glowing white appeared in Xing's hand.

"Well, let me see... "Daily Essays"? " Xing looked at the paper in his hand and a hint of joy appeared on his face: "It turns out to be material that can provide character experience? Great!"
