Star Dome Railway, I am surrounded by strange things!

Oops, I've Been Haunted by a Genius!: Chapter 205: Mechanical Ascension

After hearing Jiang Yan's words, Ruan Mei smiled.

Unlike the polite and stereotypical smiles she had before, it was a genuine smile that was inadvertently displayed because she was being pleased, a smile that even surprised Ruan Mei herself.

Sure enough, the person in front of her was qualified to be her assistant and qualified to walk the same path with her.

Only science will never let you down. So I don't need friends or family, I just need assistants who understand my path and can keep up with me.

Now it seems that my choice was not wrong.

When was the last time you were so happy?

When the development of the life spinning embroidery method is completed?

When a breakthrough is achieved in the study of the origin of life?

Or... when you were enjoying the "reward" in your distant childhood?

Recalling the few things in her memory other than science, the awkwardness in Ruan Mei's expression caused by not knowing how to express kindness immediately disappeared without a trace. Her smile, which was originally as beautiful as a blooming winter plum blossom, was even more dazzling with a touch of almost crazy obsession, forcing Jiang Yan to look away.

However, the next moment, Ruan Mei's words immediately grabbed all his attention:

"In my opinion, although all things are essentially the same, their existence is short-lived. They will eventually wither and wither. They cannot withstand too much 'change' and naturally cannot achieve 'immortality'."

"But petals that haven't bloomed won't be blown away by the wind. Omnics are just that kind of thing. While Gruntgrum's understanding of life is vastly different from mine, his inventions are perfectly suited to your current situation."

"What invention?"

"Screwgum has always sought the evolution of intelligent machines and how to escape the enslavement of the anti-organic equation. So, he imitated human tissue structure and created mechanical cells that can autonomously divide, proliferate, and repair themselves."

"I will first replace the epicardium and valves that were damaged in your earlier experiment with stronger mechanical cells, resistant to the erosion of Immortality. After the genetic assembly is complete, I will peel them off one by one, relying on the self-repair ability of Immortality to refill these areas. Are you willing?"

A flesh-and-blood heart can't withstand the drastic "changes" brought about by the power of "immortality," so is it replaced with a metal protective shell? A heart isn't a phone; can it be re-shelled?

Ruan Mei's ruthless work, though abstract, was at least within Jiang Yan's realm of imagination. After all, in this day and age, building a metal pacemaker for one's heart or constructing a bridge out of various artificial materials was nothing new. Compared to these, fitting one's heart with a triple-proof, explosion-proof, deformation-proof, and corrosion-resistant phone case—no, a heart case—was probably also considered normal...

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan quickly convinced himself of his three views and asked Ruan Mei:

"You didn't propose this plan right away. Is there any hidden danger in this approach?"

Facing Jiang Yan's question, Ruan Mei just said one word calmly:

"Anti-organic equation."

Then he slowly explained:

"Even though the omnics have invested countless time and resources, the principles and countermeasures of the Anti-Organic Equation remain unsolved. Mechanical cells have never been combined with human tissue. Whether this method will allow organics to be affected by the Anti-Organic Equation as well, or whether it can be used to allow omnics to escape its effects, remains unknown. Even Grunt-Grum cannot be sure."

"So before we use this plan, we must invite ScrewGum to join us and, through a simulated universe, conduct a more detailed investigation into the history of the birth of the Anti-Organic Equation. Only then can we completely eliminate this huge hidden danger."

Ruan Mei's words poured cold water on Jiang Yan, who was eagerly waiting to have his heart replaced.

Yes, who wouldn’t be afraid of this anti-organic equation?

If the heart turns into an evil dragon, at least you can get a spare heart, but once the iron heart is enslaved by the anti-organic equation, you will become a idiot who will chop anyone you see. Who can stand this?

Although the last time the anti-organic equation was activated was countless Amber Ages ago, who would be willing to set a time bomb on themselves that might explode at any time?

So Jiang Yan nodded and expressed his agreement with Ruan Mei's safety measures.

"I have no objection. It's never too much to be extremely cautious when it comes to anti-organic equations."

At this time, after completing the migration of all the blood vessels in the heart, Ruan Mei reached into Jiang Yan's chest and took out the small Ruan Mei that had turned into a heart without a drop of blood. She placed it into the "rice cooker" that Jiang Yan's heart had just been in, and instructed:

"Don't worry about the mechanical cells. I'll go talk to ScrewGum about it in detail. But while I'm on Screw Planet, you shouldn't continue your experiments."

After that, he checked the various readings on the "rice cooker" and continued:

"To be on the safe side, I will keep your spare heart for the time being. Remember to carry this little one with you. I've enhanced her strength, so if anything happens to the new heart, don't worry. It'll be enough to last until I return."

Hearing that Ruan Mei had already started the creation process after a disagreement, Jiang Yan quickly said:

"Wait a minute! I get along very well with little Ruan Mei. Please preserve her memory and feelings. Please."

After being saved by little Ruan Mei, Jiang Yan became even more determined to save her life.

The heart isn't a comfortable position. Enormous forces surge through the body, requiring constant activation and regulation. Forcing a living being to bear this burden is like tying a person to a waterwheel and spinning them madly. Even a simple thought from Jiang Yan could understand that the pressure little Ruan Mei endured while "taking over" for his heart wasn't much better than when his blood was racing.

So "holding on long enough to be rescued" refers to her, not me? Will she have to endure the same pain many more times afterwards?

This favor is quite big. I will pay for her snacks for the rest of her life!

Faced with Jiang Yan's request, Ruan Mei didn't care at all. She just injected some power into the "rice cooker" and made some adjustments.

Not long after, the little Ruan Mei, who was exactly the same as the original one, appeared. She showed Jiang Yan the same smile as Ruan Mei just now, then sat skillfully on Jiang Yan's shoulders, looking at Ruan Mei with anticipation.

Ruan Mei didn't mind the "praise me, praise me" expression written all over her creation's face. But Jiang Yan came to her aid at this moment, using his eyes to hint at Ruan Mei to give the little guy a response.

There was no other way, so Ruan Mei could only say "Well done" very uncomfortably, and then hurriedly left the laboratory. However, this one sentence was enough to make little Ruan Mei's two little feet swing back and forth unconsciously, and she was obviously very satisfied.

However, with Ruan Mei's departure, the alchemists in the laboratory seemed to have experienced a dream and completely forgot that Ruan Mei had ever been to the laboratory:

"Hey, when did he get better? How did that spare heart come back? Did I fall asleep?"

"Stop it. You were giving first aid one second, and you can fall asleep the next?"

"What's going on? Never mind."

"Yeah, never mind, as long as everyone is okay."

Seeing a group of meticulous alchemists completely ignore this drastic transformation, Jiang Yan was completely unaware that Ruan Mei had unleashed another terrifying combination of amnesia and pheromone attacks. Jiang Yan could only accept the ruthlessness of Ruan Mei, who drugged ordinary people without hesitation.

However, even though Bai Lu and Yu Luo became victims, Jiang Yan had no interest in speaking up for them.

Can a genius be called a genius without some serious illness? After all, there's a fundamental difference between not wanting to make deals with others and being an incinerator who burns away other people's precious memories. Regarding Ruan Mei's strange hobby, Jiang Yan could only try his best to persuade his friends to be as understanding as possible, and by the way, help her, a cosmic-level social anxiety, smooth things over:

"Actually, it was Ruan Mei who came over and saved me just now. She also restored little Ruan Mei to her original state."

Seeing that Bai Lu and Yu Luo were still confused and doubting their lives, Jiang Yan hurriedly explained.

"Huh? That genius has been here? Why don't I remember him at all?" Bai Lu asked with great curiosity, and Yu Luo looked at Jiang Yan very seriously, hoping to get an answer.

For such an important experiment, if the experimental report had a bad ending like the novel, not only would the Dragon Lords skin her alive, but even she herself would be completely unacceptable.

Medicine is no different from other professions. A few seconds of delay in administering medication could cost a life. And yet, there's a huge window of opportunity for clinical trials? Seriously, take off your Dandingsi uniform now and go tell a story at Buyehou!

Seeing that he couldn't fool them, Jiang Yan had to explain tactfully:

"Well, Ruan Mei doesn't like interacting with people. Usually when she goes out, she either uses pheromones to make people ignore her, or erases her memory so that people can't remember her."

However, what happened next was completely beyond Jiang Yan's expectations. Neither Yuluo, Bailu, nor the other alchemists seemed to care about Ruan Mei's extremely impolite behavior:

"Ah this...she should have told us!"

"Forget it, he's a genius after all!"

"It's a pity that I couldn't meet and ask for advice while I was sober."

"What kind of medicine is so powerful? Is there a formula?"

Jiang Yan was not aware that the reputation of the members of the Genius Club in the universe already included such bad labels as "a group of extremely socially anxious guys", "never interacting with ordinary people", "not doing anything human and never sharing any wisdom no matter how much".

Add to that Rupert, Dr. Original, who is more like Nanook than Xinbo Shizun and is crazy about ruining the club's reputation, and Ruan Mei, who deletes her browsing history wherever she goes, and they are already considered easy to communicate with.

More importantly, she actually helped Jiang Yan! This is not genius at all!

It's a rare opportunity to meet a genius who can help. What else can we complain about?

Jiang Yan was confused and it took him a long time to understand the logic of this group of people.

All right, as long as you are happy.

Having gotten rid of his biggest worry, Jiang Yan could finally get down to business. He told Yu Luo and Bai Lu all about Ruan Mei's plan, and successfully earned their surprised expressions that almost made their jaws drop.

What? Transforming into a giant dragon isn’t enough for you, so you want to transform into a space mechanical dragon?

The entire Vajra Clan is waiting for you to give birth to a dragon, but you want to ascend mechanically?

Mechanical ascension is an evil way!

The two wanted to dissuade Jiang Yan, but the huge defeat just now made Yu Luo realize that he was in no position to persuade him.

If you say it's not possible, you have to come up with a workable solution, otherwise what's the difference between that and making trouble?

However, the two alchemists could not bring themselves to bring up such a conservative approach as relying on fate to slowly improve one's physical fitness.

Although the descendants of "Immortals" are considered to be one of the strongest races in the universe in terms of physical strength, the way they temper their bodies is actually just to pile up time. Several dragons are at least 10,000 years old, so how can they not be strong?

So, Xiao Jiang had to train for ten thousand years to acquire a body strong enough to carry the power of "immortality"? Isn't that bullshit?

In desperation, Yuluo had to persuade:

"Xiao Jiang, no matter how much the mechanical cells can help, the iron must be strong itself, and the strength of one's own bloodline cannot be compromised. After Miss Ruan Mei returns, we can be conservative and try to merge the bloodlines of several Dragon Lords first. We all share the same origin, so the difficulty of merging them will be much easier than other bloodlines."

Yu Luo didn't want to be cruelly stabbed in the back by Jiang Yan's "I have a dream of mechanical ascension" when several Dragon Lords sent people to support, accept and review.

Encouraging a Dragon Lord to undergo mechanized transformation? You guys are pretty good! Is the reason you didn't get involved with the Medicine King's Miraculous Transmission because you thought they weren't extreme enough?

When Yu Luo thought of this scene, his eyes went dark.

Xiao Jiang's dream of mechanical ascension must be shattered no matter what.

It must be replaced by Jiang Erhuang, Jiang Nianzu, and Jiang Fanzu Meng, otherwise no one will have a good time.

So she persuaded with all her humility and sincerity:

"And according to the data from this experiment, if you continue with the gene splicing, not only your heart, but your other organs won't be able to withstand the massive blood flow it will cause! So while you're doing the gene splicing experiment, you must also continue to strengthen the resilience of your other organs to be on the safe side."

Although he didn't understand Yu Luo's strong desire to survive, Jiang Yan agreed with her point of view.

Although the sister brand fuse is good, it is a waste to burn such great power directly. The best option is to be able to withstand this power and slowly transform the body.

Besides, it would be a lie to say Jiang Yan had no interest in the bloodlines of the other Dragon Lords. The healing Cloud Chant alone was so powerful, so if he could master a killing technique like the Qilin Dragon Skyfire, wouldn't that be a huge win?

Recalling the magnificent fire dragon move at the Qilongtai, Jiang Yan's mind immediately shifted.

Ruan Mei only said not to perform heart transformation during this period, so it should be okay to try to integrate the power of other organs with the close bloodline!

When the reinforcements arrived, he had a lot more medicines and elixir supplies, as well as the even more powerful little Ruan Mei to help him. How could he still fail?

This wave is stable!

Oops, I've Been Haunted by a Genius!: Chapter 206: Phase Spirit Fire

This experiment was truly exhausting for the alchemists aboard the medical ship. Even with centuries of medical experience at the Danding Division, how could anyone have witnessed such brutal feats as heart rate symphony, myocardial disco, meridian violin, blood pressure surfing, and the suiyang fire human meat barbecue? In the end, patient Jiang Yan emerged from the lab unharmed, while several of the alchemists were nearly frightened out of their demonic forms. After the experiment was complete, he was carried directly to the ward.

Several of the saviors had collapsed, and the rest were exhausted, both physically and mentally. The long-planned celebration and thank-you banquet naturally lost all its atmosphere. Even Bai Lu, who loved food, was so exhausted from the long spells and constant mental stimulation that she fell asleep in her chair after just a few words. Not to mention the other alchemists, who, after a polite moment of stirring their chopsticks, leaned back in their chairs or simply slumped over the table.

Seeing the miserable state of the people in front of him who were scared half to death, Jiang Yan, the culprit, was naturally embarrassed. He simply announced on the spot as the captain of the medical ship that everyone would be given a long collective vacation. Anyway, whether Ruan Mei went to Screw Star to bring Screw Gumm back, or the supply fleets sent by the Dragon Lords were prepared and arrived at the Black Tower Space Station from their respective immortal ships, it would take some time. As for the space station matters, all of them could be postponed.

So, amid the voices of "Captain, you are wise", Jiang Yan finally had a rare vacation.

However, just when he woke up feeling refreshed and was about to enjoy his rare leisure time, he saw an explosive news from his portable terminal - a black tower puppet located on the base outside the station was attacked for unknown reasons, its whereabouts were unknown, and its signal could not be located.

He even dared to rob Lady Black Tower's puppet? So brave? Whose general is this?

Jiang Yan understood very well the idea of ​​having a life-size black tower doll that would spin around at home, because he had the same idea himself.

But how many lives does it take to put this idea into practice? Does this veteran who can make the Interstellar Peace Company lick their boots really think he's a vegetarian?

Who on earth could have done this? Jiang Yan couldn't imagine who among the mainstream forces had the motivation and ability to do this.

Forget it, no matter what, I have been staying in their territory for such a long time, so as a partner, I should say hello first.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan opened the portable terminal.

Jiang Yan (abandoning Rong from the pen): "Ms. Black Tower, is someone trying to harm you?"

Black Tower (This account is inactive | Business contact: Ester): "Disadvantage? Who? Me? What are you talking about?"

Jiang Yan (discarding Rong from his pen): "Didn't someone launch a surprise attack and steal one of your puppets?"

Heita (This account is inactive | Business contact: Ester): "That's it? If you have any questions, go to Ester. Yapoli from the company's technical R&D department needs me for something. I'm out now. Let's talk later."

Seeing the Black Tower's indifference, Jiang Yan naturally didn't want to continue to make things difficult for himself. Instead, he went to meet Estelle for breakfast and see if he could help. After all, if the Black Tower didn't intervene, the responsibility of resolving the situation and calming people's hearts would naturally fall to Estelle. Especially unlike the last Antimatter Corps invasion, which was witnessed by few people, the Black Tower Station was now filled with Key Seekers from all sides. With countless eyes watching, if one wasn't handled properly, the image and reputation the station had cultivated over eight Amber Ages would be destroyed.

Esther was naturally very happy about Jiang Yan's concern, but unfortunately, she couldn't do anything about the current situation for the time being:

"The attack occurred at an off-site station, outside the surveillance area. Ms. Heita didn't take the incident seriously and was out on patrol. Naturally, I couldn't obtain the puppet's final records."

"If it were just that, it would be fine. However, in the past few days, eight key seekers have disappeared one after another. They come from different and even hostile forces. Even if no conflict breaks out due to their eagerness to obtain the keys, if the suspicion continues, it will easily lead to large-scale conflicts." The worried Ester didn't touch the breakfast in front of her at all and said with a frown.

This method of carefully selecting targets and then carrying out actions obviously has great ambitions. If this enemy hiding in the shadows were to really start a big fight in the space station, Estelle could hardly imagine how she would explain to the Black Tower.
