Although the image of the young hero Xianzhou is impressive, how can it compare to the cosmic knight traveling across the sea of stars?
This is okay! No, it must be!
Jiang Yan's enthusiasm towards Ruan Mei immediately soared, and he said eagerly:
"That's no problem. I'll trouble you, Ms. Ruan Mei."
Facing Jiang Yan's courtesy, Ruan Mei just shook her head:
"My dear, you are my assistant. You don't need to be polite to me. I said that as long as you become my assistant, I will give you enough "rewards", no matter what you ask for."
While honorifics were perfectly natural for this veteran, a formidable figure who was older than Ms. Black Tower and had lived for at least ten Amber Ages, they would need to collaborate closely on two major projects for a considerable period of time. Using honorifics in every sentence would be exhausting.
Besides, since she had already called him "dear", it would be a bit too much for him to keep his distance. So Jiang Yan decisively followed Ruan Mei's request and said:
"Okay, Ruan Mei. Where do we start next?"
When Jiang Yan thought of the transformation device and space knight armor that he had been longing for, he became anxious.
However, Ruan Mei, who was originally the advocate, said calmly:
"No rush. We need to wait for Grum and Stephen to arrive and, together with Black Tower, initiate the Universal Insect Plague. Only then can you truly understand the meaning of 'breeding' and successfully embark on your destiny."
"Before that, I will conduct some experiments here. As for teaching you how to weave imaginary numbers..."
After thinking quietly for a moment, Ruan Mei took out a smaller and cuter doll that looked exactly like her. After gathering virtual power in her hands and "stroking" it, she handed it to Jiang Yan.
This kind of abstract operation completely shocked Jiang Yan.
What do you mean? Are you trying to remotely control the puppets for distance learning? We're all at the station, so why not just come to you?
Just when he was confused, a cold voice came from his hand:
"Please be gentle, I have the ability to feel pain and touch."
This sentence frightened Jiang Yan so much that he almost threw the puppet in his hand. It was only then that he discovered a blind spot that he had just overlooked:
This "doll" has no joints and feels just like flesh and blood. Considering Ruan Mei's identity as a crazy biologist...
Is this really a puppet?
Sensing Jiang Yan's confusion, Ruan Mei calmly said in a voice almost identical to the puppet's:
"Don't be surprised. It does have language and emotions, and can take on different forms depending on its mood. I've already copied the relevant techniques to her. If you have any questions during practice, you can always ask her."
Alive? Making a gene-edited copy of yourself? Just how crazy is this guy?
Honestly, the alien feeling Jiang Yan felt in Ruan Mei, a human, was second only to his own sister. Compared to her, even an abstract digital life form like Silver Wolf, whose emotions were more like those of a human, rather than an unknown creature in the guise of a great human.
However, since he had already had a third-level contact with this alien, Jiang Yan could only try to understand, no matter how bizarre his perspective was. After finally recovering from the shock of his perspective, Jiang Yan quickly reorganized his thoughts, organized his words, and asked:
"Don't worry, I will take good care of her..."
Halfway through his speech, Jiang Yan suddenly got stuck again.
How do I care for this thing? Do I wind it up? Do I feed it energy? Or does it eat like a human? What's its diet? Do I need to bathe and change its clothes?
Jiang Yan's thoughts became increasingly complicated, so he had no choice but to continue asking, "How should I take care of her?"
However, facing Jiang Yan's question, Ruan Mei hesitated and said:
“How do I take care of it? You mean… how do I ‘nurture’ it? It’s a bit complicated right now, but I can try to iterate on a simple solution later.”
"For now, just feed them human food."
Ruan Mei's words made Jiang Yan's eyes go dark again.
What do you mean by feeding? You make a puppet of yourself, how can I abuse her?
But he knew nothing about this "doll" and couldn't guarantee anything, so he could only say vaguely:
"Okay, I'll return her to you as soon as I'm done studying."
However, Ruan Mei shook her head:
"That's not necessary. You can keep it if you like. You're welcome. It's just a little experiment."
No more chatting today...
Jiang Yan completely gave up on communicating smoothly with this genius. He had no choice but to gently hold the "doll" in his arms like a princess, said goodbye to Ruan Mei, and left the confinement section.
However, just as he left the confinement section, a message came from his portable terminal:
Heita: Did you meet Ruan Mei? How was it? What were your feelings?
Seeing the black tower filled with words of "gloating" even through the portable terminal, Jiang Yan could only smile bitterly and reply:
Jiang Yan: Sure enough, I'm still a long way from being a true genius...
Heita: If you want to say we're all a bunch of weirdos, just say it. I don't deny it. Now you understand how precious it is that I was able to find three people among a bunch of weirdos who can at least communicate and work on a project together. If you understand, then let's work hard from now on!
Jiang Yan: Of course, of course. By the way, our experiment just now caused great damage to the floor of the confinement compartment. I’m sorry.
Heita: It doesn’t matter. The company will pay for it anyway. Even if it is penetrated, it won’t be blamed on me.
Jiang Yan: Ms. Heita, do you mind? My experiment with Ms. Ruan Mei...
Black Tower: What does it have to do with me? I'm used to turning a blind eye to things, to save trouble. If anything goes wrong, don't blame me. Do you understand?
Seeing Heita's words, Jiang Yan knew that this guy knew everything that happened in the confinement compartment. He just didn't care.
Jiang Yan: I understand.
Black Tower: Screw Gumu is coming to finish the work at hand, so don’t run around during this time!
Jiang Yan: Okay!
After waiting for Ms. Heita's tacit approval, Jiang Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fighting in private among others, even almost destroying someone's house, is unacceptable no matter where you go.
With Heita's permission, Jiang Yan finally felt relieved and returned to his dormitory. After carefully placing the "doll" on the table, he lay down on the chair and began to enjoy this rare rest time.
However, he was soon numbed by the gaze of Ruan Mei's "puppet", which was exactly the same as the real person. He could no longer lie down like Ge You, so he had to straighten up and asked politely:
"How should I address you, young lady?"
"You can call me whatever you want. I'm not a work approved by Ruan Mei, and she didn't give me a name."
Even though the voice was exactly the same cold and clear as Ruan Mei's, Jiang Yan could hear an unconcealable sense of loss in it.
Even if she was just a "puppet", since he was planning to learn from her, Jiang Yan didn't intend to let her continue to feel disappointed, so he spoke directly:
"In that case, I'll call you Little Ruan Mei."
Oops, I'm being haunted by a genius! : Chapter 185 Tutorial Begins
Unfortunately, facing Jiang Yan's deliberate flattery, little Ruan Mei's expression remained unchanged, and she continued calmly:
"Since Ruan Mei has handed me over to you, you are free to call me whatever you want. But the right to name us belongs only to the great creator, Ruan Mei."
At some point, a miniature teacup the size of a beverage bottle cap appeared in the little Ruan Mei's hand. After taking a sip of tea gracefully, she continued speaking:
"I am Ruan Mei's experimental creation, born as a 'born genius'. However, the experiment was unsuccessful, and I, who should have been collected and destroyed, do not deserve a name. Therefore, please do not lavish excessive attention on me. My entire value is merely the knowledge and power Ruan Mei temporarily bestowed upon me, commanding me to teach you."
Hey...this is too tragic.
Looking at little Ruan Mei, whose hair was steaming with the aroma of boiling tea, Jiang Yan didn't know what to say for a moment.
If you say this is abuse of creation, the creation itself has no objection and is still full of respect and love for its creator.
If this isn't cruelty to creation, then this "collection and destruction" is a bit too scary. Jiang Yan couldn't help but ask:
"How many of you did Ruan Mei create?"
Hearing Jiang Yan's question, little Ruan Mei put the teacup back into her personal space and said in a tone that seemed to have nothing to do with her:
"Seven. Creation Zero 'Ram' perfectly recreated the soul of Ram, the eighth member of the Genius Club. However, Ram was unwilling to return to this world and chose to disappear."
"From then on, the experimental topic shifted to 'Creating Creatures with Genius Traits'. Experimental subjects numbered one through five were respectively Rusuo Gumu, Yu Qingtu, Sisi Kaer, Heita, and Lierta. Ultimately, due to the low level of genius traits within the 'experimental subjects', the experiment failed and has now been sealed."
"I'm Number Six. Ruan Mei poured a lot of energy into it, but still failed to become a genius. You can call me that if you like."
Jiang Yan's heart almost stopped when he heard the shocking news that little Ruan Mei revealed after a disagreement.
Oh my god! This guy really dares to do anything!
Is this something I should know?
Jiang Yan simply couldn't imagine, leaving aside the fact that Sisikar and Lier were already fallen geniuses, what would the other three feel when they knew that Ruan Mei was trying to create life-like figures of them.
Jiang Yan, fearing that this little Ruan Mei would throw out some more explosive information that would get him killed, quickly waved his hand:
"Um, I'm just asking out of curiosity. If it involves Ms. Ruan Mei's secrets, you don't have to tell me specifically, little Ruan Mei."
However, facing Jiang Yan's respectful attitude, little Ruan Mei's face, which was exactly the same as her own, showed no emotion at all, and she continued calmly:
"Don't worry. Answering your questions is the mission Ruan Mei has given me. As Ruan Mei's only experimental assistant, you are entitled to know all of Ruan Mei's experiments. Within the scope of my knowledge, you can ask me questions at any time. Even if there are questions that I don't know, I can ask Ruan Mei to answer them for you through the resonance of my soul."
This unreserved attention made Jiang Yan feel flattered but also under great pressure.
If the other party spends so much money and still doesn't get what they want from you, will they be so disappointed that they even plan to "collect them all and destroy them"?
It has nothing to do with strength. Faced with this crazy scientist who acts without any scruples, Jiang Yan really can't help but have wild thoughts.
Just as Jiang Yan was imagining Ruan Mei pushing him into a life incubator to merge with a bunch of cat cakes, the little Ruan Mei who had been staring at him said:
"Can we start the lesson now?"
"Oh, okay, Miss Ruan Mei, I'll be thanking you for the rest of the process."
Facing this little fellow who had a blank expression but eyes that showed "I don't want to disappoint Ruan Mei again", Jiang Yan certainly would not dampen his enthusiasm for teaching. He quickly took out his own Ruan bag and gave it to him as a cushion and teaching aid. Then he sat up straight like the most obedient student, ready to listen to this palm-sized little teacher explain to him the imaginary force manipulation technique that is considered top-notch even in the entire universe.
However, in the face of Jiang Yan's kindness, little Ruan Mei did not treat A Ruan's bag as a cushion, but pulled up a corner of the bag with great cherishment and draped it over her body. She closed her eyes and quietly felt Ruan Mei's power for a moment before she stretched out her little fingers and easily pulled out a thin silver-blue line of imaginary force.
"You should be able to do this."
"Uh, okay."
Jiang Yan, who had expected the other party to explain with pictures and texts or give a long lecture, was stunned by the skill of the little guy in front of him in using imaginary force with ease.
Most real humans can't do this, right? How can someone who can do this still be called a failure?
However, the little guy in front of him obviously could not accept any criticism against Ruan Mei, so Jiang Yan had to hide his complaints in his heart. Following the other party's method, he inertized the outer layer of an imaginary force and pulled out a long imaginary force line.
This is no simple matter. Imaginary force constructs everything in the universe; even space and time are manifestations of imaginary force. Therefore, when a Destiny Walker activates imaginary force, once unleashed, it inevitably interpenetrates, reacts, and merges with the surrounding imaginary forces.
Even after Jiang Yan's deliberate inertization, this "thread" will still completely dissolve into the air in the near future, like a drop of ink falling into the sea.
Even so, Jiang Yan felt that without Tingyun's countless "special trainings," he would never have been able to achieve this. At least among his friends, only Yanqing could do this kind of delicate work; Su Shang and Gui Naifen simply couldn't even think about it.
However, faced with the "homework" handed in by Jiang Yan, little Ruan Mei did not comment, but quickly pulled out another imaginary force thread, and after twisting the two threads together, the two threads quickly turned into a strange double helix structure that was like two snakes entwined with each other, but had no contact with each other.
The next moment, countless imaginary force connections formed between the two imaginary force threads due to their completely opposite polarities. These connections not only completely stabilized the unstable double helix structure, but also allowed the two threads to form a completely complete imaginary force circuit, generating a strong repulsive force against external imaginary forces, almost completely blocking their penetration, reaction, and fusion.
Jiang Yan's eyes almost popped out as he watched this miraculous scene before him.
Isn't this the double helix structure of the DNA molecule? Ruan Mei actually used this trick to study imaginary numbers?
Hands rubbing the DNA double helix? Is that a human?
Oops, I've been entangled by a genius! : Chapter 186: Life Spinning Embroidery
"This is the method of creation that Ruan Mei De Meng Bo Shi Zun glimpsed—the weaving of life, a unique weaving method of imaginary force in the universe."
"I can't promise that I can teach you to master this technique, but I can promise that it's worth your lifetime of practice."
After being completely stunned by this move, Jiang Yan could only nod repeatedly when faced with little Ruan Mei praising her creator whenever she had the chance.
"Please teach me quickly, little teacher Ruan Mei. I can't wait to learn the secrets!"
Jiang Yan was not very interested in creating life, but he was very interested in creating a basic unit of imaginary force that was almost unaffected by the outside world.
Just like the imaginary force threads created by Jiang Yan, any move, once released, will inevitably dissipate rapidly as time and distance increase. The stronger the move, the faster it dissipates.
Who could accept that after launching a move, only a fraction of the power would remain after hitting the enemy? This is precisely why so many people in this era of the universe are still obsessed with melee weapons.
But if you can weave and embroider the power you drive in advance, wouldn't you be able to attack the enemy with almost no damage and easily break through any defense of the same strength?
Learn, learn, learn. If you don’t learn, you are not a human being!
Faced with Jiang Yan's positive attitude towards learning, little Ruan Mei nodded in satisfaction, and pulled out two translucent imaginary force threads that were much thicker than before. She demonstrated them to Jiang Yan again at a speed several times slower than before, while explaining:
"Life Spinning, as the name suggests, is a method of creation that uses imaginary forces to weave simulated life. Ruan Mei used imaginary forces to weave the basic units of life—DNA. These basic units were then woven into tissues, organs, and systems, ultimately creating us, the creatures that we are."
