[“I’m sorry, Mr. Ron… I just did a quick search on the HR manager of the marketing department and found out that this guy is just a temporary worker and is not actually part of the company’s staff…”]
[She said, and deleted the consciousness data of the branch manager that she had just received from Ron: "This debt dispute may have deeper reasons. We believe that the fault is not yours, but the tragedy caused by the arbitrary decision of this temporary worker."]
[“Perhaps we should recalculate this debt… But let’s not talk about this little thing for now. As the team leader of the [Strategic Investment Department], I am quite interested in Mr. Ron’s abilities. I wonder if Mr. Ron has any intention of cooperating with the company?”]
"As expected of a commissioner of the Interstellar Peace Company... He is flexible and can make a 180-degree turn for the sake of profit..."
Looking at the words on the screen, Ron couldn't help but feel a little emotional:
"But who is this woman? Why does she look like someone other than an ordinary person? She looks familiar, but I don't remember her being in the game?"
Ron scratched his head and simply recalled his memory:
"Could it be a character that hasn't been released yet... No, it looks like a character illustration on a light cone - could it be a satellite character that hasn't been released yet?"
Ron couldn't think of any information about this woman, so he gave up and clicked the light screen in front of him to continue the simulation:
[The company calculates the benefits in great detail - no matter who you are, if you want to prove your worth, you must first add value to the company.]
[And you easily proved your worth to Topa... The value that cooperation with you will add to the Interstellar Peace Corporation is unimaginable, far more than the value of a Yalilo-VI.]
[Companies are greedy, but they are also extremely generous when working with others for higher value——]
[Topa proposed a simple agreement to you, stipulating the cooperation and communication between you and the Knowledge Society sponsored by the Interstellar Peace Company, and stipulating that after the cooperation project between you and the Black Tower produces results, you will sell your share to the Interstellar Peace Company...]
[They will purchase these achievements at a very high premium. When you see the sample bill given by Topa, you can't even count how many zeros there are in the credit column at first.]
[You and Topa had a pleasant conversation and soon reached a consensus and signed this friendly cooperation agreement... Because of this cooperation agreement, the debt between Yalilo-VI and the company "miraculously" changed from an astronomical figure to hundreds of thousands of credit points, and these credit points are almost equivalent to nothing on the scale of a civilization.]
[Topa is very satisfied with your cooperation. In order not to disturb the people of Yalilo-VI, she quickly led the fleet of giant ships to withdraw from the planetary orbit of Yalilo-VI and quickly left the Yalilo galaxy, restoring the stability and tranquility of this galaxy.]
Looking at the words on the light screen, Ron nodded with satisfaction.
The company really thought the same as he did. As long as it could prove its value, the company didn't mind others' provocations against it. As long as the profits brought to the company could outweigh the losses, the company would never show its fangs.
"This crisis has passed without any major problems... With the cooperation agreement with the company, the development of New Beloberg has been settled..."
Ron muttered to himself, but did not change his mind about the current development direction of New Beloberg.
After all, although he had reached a cooperation agreement with the company, Yalilo-VI had a channel for material supply, but it did not mean that it was safe.
The Interstellar Peace Company will not provide protection to Yalilo-VI just because of this cooperation agreement. If there is really an invasion by the antimatter army, the Interstellar Peace Company will never send a giant fleet capable of destroying the galaxy like it did this time to picket the debt.
Or you must have the power to hold it tightly in your own hands...
Ron thought thoughtfully and clicked the light screen in front of him to continue the simulation.
......
Time passed quickly, and several months passed. During this period, New Beloberg had been producing starships, and Ron had been constantly innovating the starship design drawings, accumulating strength for New Beloberg.
This period of stable development was a rare free time for Ron in this simulation. Apart from his daily research tasks, it was the first time that Ron could spare some time to do some social activities that had no meaning other than to relax his mind...
For example, he began to take time out to check his personal terminal every day and chat with his friends via text messages.
It's a pity that he lives a secluded life and doesn't know many people. Apart from the train crew, only Estella and Black Tower can chat with him, and the people he chats with are quite fixed.
Although these useless social behaviors were basically just a waste of time, Ron still got a lot of interesting information from them -
For example, according to the conversation with the train crew, Ron learned that after being found by Kafka, the Starry Sky Train initially jumped to the Luofu Fairy Boat as in the original story, but then saw some particularly strange situations...
For example, the Grand Astrologer Fu Xuan seems to be arguing with Luofu General Jing Yuan over the route of the immortal ship Luofu;
The atmosphere inside the Immortal Boat is also very strange. It is said that the Danding Division has been inexplicably blocked. There are rumors that someone there has made incredible progress and was blocked by the Ten Kings Division.
The strangest thing was that as soon as they arrived at the Immortal Boat, they heard the sound of bells. It was said that it was the Huangzhong system of the Immortal Boat Alliance, which was used to leave messages with other Immortal Boats...
Not long after, the Yaoqing Immortal Boat jumped and sailed to the galaxy where the Luofu Immortal Boat was located. The two immortal boats temporarily traveled together, and it was unknown where they were going.
However, not long after that, the influence of the star core gradually manifested itself, Jianmu began to grow again, and Luofu fell into a great civil strife.
The Lord of Extinction, Huanlong, has been hiding in Luofu, secretly allocating and dividing, secretly creating virtual soldiers, and mass-producing antimatter legions, starting a tug-of-war within the Xianzhou Alliance.
This war lasted for more than a year. A month or two ago, General Jing Yuan of Luofu devised a plan to raid Linyuan Realm. Together with General Fei Guang of Yaoqing, they killed the Great Lord Huanlong of Extinction who had usurped the body of Jianmu with the force of thunder, and finally put an end to the turmoil...
Looking at the text messages in the simulation, Ron scratched his head, feeling that the illusion that the immortal boat faced in this simulation was a bit too strong.
With the two generals Jing Yuan and Fei Guang, it will take a year to seesaw? I feel that this illusion of strength in the explosive killing game has a true beauty of strength of the double destiny of destruction and abundance...
However, this was meaningless to Ron - no matter how strong Huanlong was, it was impossible for her to affect Yalilo-VI. She had just been defeated and was probably still hiding in some corner dropping pearls. Even if the new Beloberg really faced an Extinction Lord in the future, it would not be Huanlong.
After all, she had just suffered a defeat in the Immortal Boat Luofu and had no energy to invade Yalilo-VI...
Even if she really invaded Yalilo-VI, New Beloberg did not have something like Jianmu that could allow her to possess herself. She could only be a small flame and was completely unable to exert the combat power of the Lord of Extinction.
Instead of spending this much time, it would be better to worry about the Black Tower - more than a year has passed, and the Black Tower has not yet sent Ron an invitation, and there is no reply to the messages sent in the simulation, as if it has disappeared from the face of the earth without any response.
Ron began to wonder if something went wrong when the Black Tower was preparing for the project. After all, shaping a star god, which sounds a bit abstract, can easily run into big troubles...
But before he could even begin to feel a bit worried, a new note popped up on the screen in front of him:
[You ended your daily slacking off, closed the chat interface between you and Xing, and refocused your energy on the desk in front of you, devoting yourself to scientific research...]
【But the door of the laboratory suddenly opened. 】
[The puppet that Heita left on the research ship is back online. She walks into the room with a hint of excitement in her eyes:]
[“I have already debugged the simulated universe…How do you say, let’s test it?”]
Chapter 115—The Black Tower: This will be the greatest discovery since the beginning of history!
Is the Black Tower finally ready?
Looking at the picture on the screen, Ron suddenly became alert. He sat up from the bed and stared at the screen in front of him intently.
In this situation, Ron has to be serious... If there is anything he gained from this simulation, it is the research on star cores and the cooperative research project with the Black Tower.
Even if he could only simulate this unimaginable thing of creating a star god once, Ron felt that he could gain unimaginable benefits from it...
He had been looking forward to this research project, and for this reason he did not even avoid the crisis warned by the fictional historian, which was very likely to become more dangerous because of Ron's research. Instead, he was ready to let New Beloberg build a fleet and directly prepare for armed resistance.
Ron didn't hesitate and immediately clicked on the light screen in front of him to continue the simulation.
He watched the image on the screen fade away, and a crimson option box appeared on the screen:
[After nearly two years, the puppet stored by the Black Tower on your research ship finally came online. When you were researching, she opened your laboratory and told you that she had successfully updated the simulated universe and was ready to create a star god from scratch.]
[But facing the invitation from the Black Tower, you calmly think about everything now, and a clear fact is becoming clear in your mind——]
[If I reject the Black Tower's invitation now and escape from the battlefield, I may be able to save my life.]
[No one knows what the collaborative research with the Black Tower will bring... Shaping a star god is definitely a taboo among taboos. The crisis that will be caused by not following the script in the mouth of fictional historians, you feel it is getting closer as time goes by.]
[The cooperation with the Black Tower may yield some interesting results, but it is these results that will make this cooperation extremely dangerous——]
[Is it really worth it to risk your life for some knowledge that you shouldn't know? ]
[You must think carefully, this may be your only chance to regret...]
【请选择——】
[1. Sorry, Black Tower.]
Reason eventually overwhelms the desires in your heart. You know that you shouldn't be so reckless and shouldn't bet your life with the new Beloberg... You don't need more knowledge, and you don't need to find out the absurd truth in this universe.
Knowing the nature of the star core was beyond your preparation. You were not a cowardly ostrich who only dared to bury his head in the sea of ignorance. Instead, you clearly understood a fact -
If you delve deeper into all this, everything you find out may be extremely absurd and hopeless... You don't have an obsessive desire to explore the truth. You just want to live well, and you just want your heart Beloberg to live well in this sea of stars.
You have to suppress your curiosity... Sometimes ignorance is not without benefits.
If you choose this option, you will change your mind temporarily and reject Black Tower's invitation to cooperate with you.
Black Tower's favorability towards you will drop significantly, she will terminate all cooperation agreements with you, and start the project of shaping the Star God on her own.
The contract you signed with the Interstellar Peace Company will also be questioned, and you will need at least one piece of miracle technology to dispel the doubts of the Interstellar Peace Company and prove your value.
Project: "Shaping a Star God" will be completely closed to you, and you will no longer be able to trigger this project, but at the same time, the probability of triggering the events: "End of Hope" and "Dawn of Destruction" in this simulation will be reduced to zero.
Event: The disaster level of "Fated Disaster" is slightly reduced from 30 to 10. 】
2. What are we waiting for?
All the puzzles in this sea of stars should have an answer. Although you are not interested in answering everything, the cooperation project with Black Tower is a rare and interesting scientific research option for you.
As the de facto leader of New Beloberg, all your research is in the service of its development. Many times, the needs of the group are more important to you than your personal desire for exploration. Your research is for the entire New Beloberg, and never once was it truly for yourself.
But this time, you decided to be a little willful - you have already agreed to the Black Tower, so how can you go back on your word at the last minute?
You also want to see with your own eyes what the truth is in this false sea of stars.
By choosing this option, you will gladly accept the invitation from the Black Tower and immediately drive the research ship to the Black Tower Space Station in accordance with the previous cooperation agreement between you and the Black Tower.
Select this option, and the Black Tower's favorability toward you will increase slightly, waiting for you to start the project together: "Shaping a Star God".
Project: The initial completion rate of "Shaping a Star God" will be increased to 30%.
The contract signed between Interstellar Peace Company and you will therefore be favored by the company's strategic investment department. When the project completion reaches a certain level, you will receive a "small" assistance from Interstellar Peace Company.
At the same time, the probability of the events "End of Hope" and "Dawn of Destruction" occurring will increase with the completion of the project. When the project completion reaches 100%, one of the two events will be triggered as the final event according to the project results.
Event: The disaster level of "Fated Disaster" has been slightly increased from 30 to 50. 】
Looking at the crimson option box on the light screen, Ron was slightly startled.
This was the first time he saw the legendary choice that had appeared before. After a choice had been made, another confirmation choice was triggered before the choice event began.
Moreover, compared with the first decision, the second decision clearly stated the pros and cons in more detail. The consequences of accepting the Black Tower's invitation to shape the Star God had been fully anticipated and marked on the simulation options.
To be honest, after carefully reading these two options and thinking about them briefly, I feel that option 1 will be much less troublesome no matter how I think about it.
After all, the two events "End of Hope" and "Dawn of Destruction" are both abnormal events no matter how you look at them, and neither of them seems to be a good thing. After the project of shaping the Star God is completed, one of them will definitely be triggered, which means that they are destined to face such a super trouble.
Furthermore, that so-called "predestined catastrophe" was clearly not a good thing, and was probably the trouble that the fictional historians had warned about.
The difference between the disaster degree of the doomed calamity of choosing option one and option two is a full forty points. The difference between the disaster degree of ten points and the disaster degree of fifty points is five times, which means that choosing option two will face a disaster at least five times that of option one...
Compared with these, the minor troubles such as the deteriorating relationship with Heita and the need to respond to the company's questions are not troubles at all. After all, if the relationship with Heita deteriorates, Heita will only terminate the cooperation agreement and there is no talk of more retaliatory actions.
The company's doubts were nothing. The many technologies in Ron's hands were enough to make the company very interested. Not to mention the detailed research data on the star core, just the reproduction of the antimatter legion technology in Ron's hands was enough to make the company pay a large price.
But... despite this, Ron looked at the options on the light screen and chose option number two without hesitation.
All in all, all these troubles are just troubles in the simulation, nothing more.
Even if he really died in these disasters and the entire New Beloberg was destroyed, it actually didn't matter to Ron -
This was just a simulation after all, even though it was the last simulation Ron had decided to do on Beloberg, but that was all.
Ron has experienced failure countless times in simulations, and he doesn't mind experiencing it again...
This simulation gives me a chance to explore the secrets of the Star God. If I succeed in shaping the Star God, I might be able to find an inherent way to become a Star God...
Ron felt that this deal was totally worth it, as he got such a profit from a simulated failure.
He is not someone who is afraid of trouble if there is enough profit to be made.
Ron thought silently in his heart, watching the option box on the light screen fade away, and a new note appeared on it:
[You have confirmed your choice. You have not regretted it, but are ready to do your best to help Black Tower.]
[Project: "Shaping the Star God" has been completed to 30%. ]
The note on the light screen suddenly flashed, revealing a lavender color, and then disappeared in an instant:
[A faint sigh came to your ears, which dissipated under the gaze of the black tower and completely disappeared beside you.]
[You temporarily returned to New Beloberg to say goodbye to Cocolia, informed her of your whereabouts, and copied the research ship think tank backup you had prepared to the giant computer built in New Klipperburg a few days ago, and told Cocolia how to use the think tank AI. ]
[You hope that she can develop New Beloberg during the time you are away, build starships step by step, and assemble several large fleets for New Beloberg. The fleet strength needs to be comparable to the antimatter army that eliminated the Grand Lord, and must have the ability to defeat the antimatter army under the order. ]
[Cocolia said there was no problem with your request. You left New Beloberg in a dusty state, drove the research ship across the starry sea, and followed the route of [opening up] Akivilli to the Black Tower Space Station.]
[You enter the space station, and walk smoothly all the way to the Black Tower's office.]
[And Heita is sitting in the office with his hands on his hips, waiting for your arrival.]
The text on the light screen faded, and a new picture appeared on it:
Ron rushed to Heita's office, exhausted. Heita was standing in front of the input terminal of the simulated universe, with his hands on his hips, looking at Ron, with a hint of smile in his eyes:
"So anxious? I'm not rushing you."
