Star Dome Railway, I am surrounded by strange things!

However, Jiang Yan was extremely uncomfortable with this overbearing scientific research method. When he thought about how this material could be classified as "precious experimental material" by a scientific research holy place like the Black Tower Space Station, Jiang Yan suddenly realized a problem that he had previously overlooked:

"How many credits are there per kilogram of this stuff?"

However, Esther didn't intend to scare Jiang Yan by revealing the price per gram:

"It's rare for me to have a legitimate reason to satisfy my shopping urges, so please don't worry about this small amount of money!"

Soon, Jiang Yan witnessed the company's servility towards Ester, a lifetime premium member of Huanyu Jiapin.com. Just a few system hours later, an interstellar package arrived directly via an unmanned high-speed aircraft. This completely changed Jiang Yan's worldview, as he often waited a week or even two weeks for his orders.

Having learned from her previous experience, Ester opened the package first, then without further ado, found the shopping list and threw it into the shredder. Then, she handed Jiang Yan a large box of strange, azure-blue metal keys that looked like gemstones.

"Don't be afraid, even though it looks a little strange, it doesn't have any radiation!"

Everything has been stamped out, and there is no way to return it. Jiang Yan, who once again felt the strength of the rich woman, had no choice but to nod and began to try to inject the power of the star god into the key again.

Unfortunately, Krypton Gold isn't a panacea for scientific research. Although Jiang Yan clearly felt that using this special material had slightly improved the integration of Star God power, the actual results, after breaking a large number of keys, could only be described as negligible.

Something's wrong! Could it be that the geniuses of the past were so much stronger than me that they could just force a miracle and force "water" into "iron"? Impossible.

Such a huge gap made Jiang Yan completely confused.

Although he wasn't so arrogant as to believe that there would be counterfeit goods in the Genius Club, where the Master of Knowledge personally inspected the goods before issuing the certificate, he had witnessed the power of the Black Tower. But no matter how powerful it was, one couldn't ignore the nature of power!

There must be some trick!

Unfortunately, even though this note was widely circulated because Elijah Salas sent it to all geniuses, no one used the real long-distance remote sensing eyepiece at all, so naturally no one made it. Not to mention Jiang Yan, even the Black Tower didn't have one. Jiang Yan naturally had no reference and could only refer to and compare with other strange objects.

This research direction is not very creative. Almost every staff member who writes a paper on a rare object will talk about the difference between this rare object and ordinary objects of the same material. Some researchers even go to great lengths to find ordinary objects produced in the same batch as the rare object for comparison, trying to find some traces of the remnants of the star god's will.

But unfortunately, the researchers used almost all means and instruments, but still found nothing.

No matter from which data point of view, these strange objects are no different from ordinary items, but they can magically demonstrate the powerful power of the star gods, making the inspectors almost spit out blood.

However, Jiang Yan, who has witnessed the three kinds of star god power with his own eyes, has a deeper understanding of the star god power than an ordinary researcher.

After repeatedly savoring the artifact at the cost of damaging it, and after seeking Prometheus's help in analyzing it, Jiang Yan and Prometheus finally came to an outrageous conclusion:

The moment these artifacts were touched by the Star God's power, they were completely reconstructed. Even if the molecular formula and ingredient list remained identical, the uniformity, stability, and close integration of the Star God's power into the artifacts' materials still couldn't deceive Jiang Yan.

At this level, it is impossible to "dissolve" but rather erosion and reconstruction.

Then there was this ancient rumor: the moment a Star God ignited the divine fire, all of his past would completely vanish from the Tree of Existence, leaving only his body, the embodiment of his destiny. Putting this into context, Jiang Yan suddenly realized:

This group of geniuses did not even try to "pour water" into the "stone". Instead, they directly used the power of the messenger to completely reconstruct the "stone", making it contain water from the beginning, so there was naturally no problem in injecting the power of the star god.

Although Jiang Yan could easily analyze the energy structure of these stones, iron rods, music boxes, small axes... with the help of Prometheus, he had only been engaged in scientific research for a few days. How could he have the ability to design a new structure for these things that looked exactly the same but could not affect the original functions and deeply integrate the power of knowledge?

Jiang Yan felt that he might be able to perform this kind of operation of directly editing the material source code in the future, but it was definitely not possible at the moment.

However, this conclusion did not make Jiang Yan back down.

I can't refactor from scratch, so don't you all know how to copy and paste? Even I, the Knowledgeable One, dare to just dig into the code. This time, all I need to do is forcibly replace the powers of the other Star Gods with wisdom, and that's it, right?

However, the cruel experiment soon taught Jiang Yan that copying and pasting was not a panacea:

"The twelfth experiment... failed."

Jiang Yan looked at the music box in front of him, which no longer sang automatically, and shook his head helplessly.

Well, at least he didn't turn into ashes in front of me, which is considered progress.

During this time alone, he had scrapped a full twelve artifacts, the difficulty of operating a knockoff phone a harsh blow. The slightest instability in the collision and overlay of the Star God's power would instantly reduce the artifact to ash. The music box before him was the only successful creation still intact.

I can't even copycat or paste clothes? Not true!

If I can't even handle this, how can I have the nerve to call myself the 85th seat?

Jiang Yan immediately became ruthless and continued to practice!

It doesn’t matter if twelve are broken. It doesn’t matter if twelve, twenty-four, or thirty-six are broken. Can you still be stumped by the existing structure?

Finally, after breaking a lot of strange objects, Jiang Yan finally succeeded in perfectly replacing all the "destructive" power of a small axe that was always sharp with the power of wisdom, turning it into a smart axe, achieving an excellent start.

But before continuing to work hard to "replace the core" of the strange object, Jiang Yan faced an important problem:

The ones used this time are all ordinary people. How could they borrow the ability of Bo Shi Zun Xindao?

More importantly, if we cannot borrow it, who will fill the gap in enlightening ordinary people with the power of intellect?

Wait, the power derived from intellect, the convenient channel...isn't this Prometheus?

This group of people who couldn't even open the door to knowledge, even if they were really pulled into the palace of truth, would most likely just go crazy. Moreover, without the key to knowledge, it was impossible for them to use this route.

So, why not open a small private server under the official server?

After thinking about this, Jiang Yan's mind suddenly opened up. He connected the modified Little Axe directly to the Prometheus server. Prometheus, which already carried the access channels of two full planets, was already very familiar with this process. It quickly broadcast various algorithms derived from the Boshizun equation to Little Axe.

Jiang Yan certainly had no interest in creating a great artifact in one go. From the very beginning, he designed this downgraded version of the "Key of Enlightenment" just to do something for ordinary people. As long as everyone in the space station holds these Enlightenment Axes, Enlightenment Sticks, and Enlightenment Papers, and can receive information from the other side of the door, allowing them to find the door more accurately, wouldn't that be enough?

So he soon began to enthusiastically continue to transform these low-level strange objects that no one was interested in, while tempering his precise ability to operate the power of the star god, and making some preparations in advance for the huge demand in the future.

However, what Jiang Yan did not expect was that this demand came so suddenly. Just a few days later, before he could make many keys, he and Ester were blocked by a group of staff at the door of the laboratory.

"I'm sorry, I was a little too flamboyant." Estelle said apologetically.

She has been trying to digest the "Key to Enlightenment" during this period of time. She almost never lets go of this key, even when she is dealing with space station affairs. How can this not attract the attention of gossipmongers?

The characteristics of the "Key to Enlightenment" have taken this topic to a whole new level.

"Master Station Master, you've been playing with this token of love for so many days, aren't you tired of it?"

"What a beautiful key! This guy really knows how to do it."

"Wait a minute, what key? Why don't I see it?"

"What do you mean by that look? Hasn't the stationmaster been holding it in his hand these past few days?"

"Wait a minute... The stationmaster is here to take care of something... No! I'm sure she doesn't have anything in her hands."

"What are you talking about, upstairs? I'm not far from the stationmaster. Don't I have the key in my hand?"

"???"

After much discussion, everyone finally determined that it was a magical object that could only be seen by those who embarked on the path of knowledge.

At this time, the magical effect of this key gradually surfaced:

"Can you believe it? After taking a closer look at the Station Master's key, inspiration is pouring out of me."

"+1. Just looking at this key gives me a strong sense of satisfaction, more satisfying than drinking happy water."

"The guy upstairs, are you really not after the stationmaster's body?"

"Really not! That key is definitely poisonous! As long as you can see it, you will definitely feel it!"

Those who seek knowledge have never had any resistance to the unknown. Soon, a large number of interested travelers walked past Ester intentionally or unintentionally to take a look at the key in her hand.

Compared to completely "eating" it, this behavior of taking a look from a distance will certainly not have much effect, but it is definitely not nothing.

In order to attract more attention, the exaggerated descriptions of this group of experiencers directly turned the topic to a weird angle:

"So, this key is the tool this guy uses to hypnotize the stationmaster and make her do whatever he says... Which warrior will go and destroy it and save the stationmaster from hypnosis?"

Oops, I'm being haunted by a genius! : Chapter 167: Blessing or Curse

The space station staff cannot be entirely blamed for coming to the outrageous conclusion that "the stationmaster was hypnotized." It is really too much for Ester to never let go of the key even when performing normal official duties in order to digest this key of enlightenment as soon as possible.

In the eyes of the staff, even if it was a token of love they had just received, they wouldn't treasure it to this extent! Why would they have to hold it tightly in their hands and feed it to everyone around them indiscriminately?

There must be something fishy going on here!

After all, mind control, hypnosis, and possession—common methods in underground literature—are no joke in this universe. Even a space station has the ability to rewrite nonexistent memories for a person who has lost their memory, let alone the Xianzhou people, whose medical expertise is unparalleled in the universe.

If someone were a Xianzhou person, it wouldn't be impossible for him to create a key that could open the hearts of others, and make them obey the creator's words as long as they stared at it!

In particular, the two of them often used ordinary titles such as "assistant" and "team leader" in a way that made people feel itchy when they heard it, and it was impossible not to think of countless classic plots in underground literature:

"When we get to the space station, remember to call me by my name and don't reveal our relationship."

"No! Master, don't you want me anymore?"

"Hmm? Are you trying to disobey my orders?"

"Okay, okay, Master."

"Well... considering your obedience, when we return to the space station, you can be my assistant. Just call me team leader. I allow you to keep the title of master in private."

"Thank you Master!"

.......The following 100,000 words are omitted.

As reality becomes more and more like the plot everyone loves to see, and there is finally an opportunity to discuss this topic openly, who can limit the wings of the space station personnel's imagination?

In the blink of an eye, the private discussion about this key in the space station had become completely crazy. Countless versions of the story emerged like mushrooms after rain, and many even showed obvious signs of copying and pasting.

Of course, everyone wasn't there... well, not just to tell stories, but to discuss how to rescue the hypnotized webmaster. Soon, the staff members each showed their abilities and came up with various "rescue measures":

Someone took out a thought connection blocking device specially designed to deal with dangerous species;

Someone brought out a spiritual barrier designed to protect against the spiritual pollution caused by the Mysteries;

Someone obtained a spectrometer from the Interstellar Peace Corporation that can detect whether there are signs of interference and modification of thought pulses;

However, even though everyone successfully launched these "rescue measures" by inviting the stationmaster to inspect and requesting the stationmaster to personally inspect the equipment, these measures were all like a drop in the ocean, without any sound, as if the key in the stationmaster's hand was just an ordinary key.

How is that possible? Whose ordinary key is it that ordinary people can't even see?

It must be that the secret technique of the immortal boat attached to it is too powerful!

Only a stronger destiny can defeat destiny. We must seek help from the strong ones who have opened the door to the path of knowledge!

However, what these ordinary staff members didn't expect was that at this moment, the powerful people in these space stations were even more "hypnotized" than their station chief:

"I can't stand it anymore! It's all these guys' fault for scaring the stationmaster away from the cafeteria. Now if I don't see that key for another day, I'm going to die!"

"Me too, it's so uncomfortable!"

"How can such a miraculous object of knowledge exist? It's like a beacon. Just by being illuminated by its power, inspiration is triggered. Ahhhhh! I want it so much!"

For these seekers of knowledge, a moment of enlightenment and inspiration at a critical moment is more valuable than anything else in the world. Especially when important research encounters obstacles and cannot make any progress, in a sense, it is even more important than life itself.

In this situation, when someone comes up with something that can stably inspire inspiration, how can they not drool with envy?

"The webmaster makes a lot of money. If I weren't so old, I could be his girlfriend with such a gift."

"A boyfriend is fine too. It's just a surgery."

"Stop it! Even if we go back to the old ways a hundred times, we still can't be as good as the stationmaster. Does anyone have a few planets as a dowry?"

"Ah... But speaking of which, if we ask the stationmaster for permission to study this strange object, do you think it would be approved?"

"Approved? Don't be silly! Don't you see how much the stationmaster treasures this rare item? If I had such a rare item, I would hold it in my hand all day long."

"Forget it, I'll just continue waiting outside the stationmaster's laboratory for a chance encounter."

"Go together! Go together!"

In this way, a group of destiny travelers who were studying the subject with portable terminals and waiting for a chance encounter; and a group of researchers who were carrying various instruments and secret scrolls waiting to rescue Ester, soon blocked the door of Ester's laboratory.

Even if there are many reasons to explain the "coincidence", but so many people "coincidentally" together? It's a lie!

Before, she could understand the constant peeping as gossip, but with the current situation, Ester couldn't handle it anymore. She'd been completely focused on collecting keys, oblivious to what everyone else was talking about. It wasn't until she created several fake accounts to survey the public that she realized she had become the king of the space station's book club. Most people were trying to "save" her, while a few were simply hooked on the feeling of being near her, freeing her wifi—no, freeing her inspiration.

What's wrong with you guys? Do I look like I'm hypnotized? If you want the key, why not just tell me?

Esther, who was almost pissed off to death by her subordinates, rubbed her forehead and sighed.

Understanding that unequal distribution is more of a problem than a lack of resources, she had originally intended to wait for Jiang Yan to slowly practice with the rare items, optimizing them while stockpiling them until they were "fully stocked," and then share the good news with the space station. But if she kept stockpiling, she feared she would become the king of the entire universe. Was she only going to give them the keys then to provide them with better inspiration for their books?

Not wanting to be "saved" or followed by a bunch of freeloaders, she could only say awkwardly to Jiang Yan, who was busy replacing the core of the strange object:

"Um... can we hold a briefing on the Key of Knowledge first to satisfy the curiosity of the staff?"

After hearing Ester's opinion, Jiang Yan stopped what he was doing and turned around to ask doubtfully:

"Didn't you tell me yesterday that there's no need to rush and take our time researching, and that there's still time to craft a true Key of Enlightenment without using existing artifacts?

After hearing Jiang Yan's words, Esther's face turned even redder. After hesitating for a long time, she finally gave up and said:

"If we delay any longer, our reputation will be ruined!" As she spoke, she shared with Jiang Yan the content of the chats in several groups that she had infiltrated using the "unknown" pseudonym.

Jiang Yan only looked at it for a few seconds and was completely dumbfounded.

It's only been a few days? Why are the attachments to these group notebooks already numbered almost four digits?

Aren't you researchers who value rationality? How come when it comes to gossip and pornography, you're even more aggressive than the paparazzi at Yalilo No. 6?
