Star Dome Railway, I am surrounded by strange things!

This girl, I've long seen that she's not human!

For three days, Bronya, of course, without a hat of harmony, quietly endured the occupation of her chambers. She spent most of her free time investigating the origins of the uninvited guest known as the "Silver Wolf," who bore a striking resemblance to herself.

Soon, she found the wanted poster for Silver Wolf, with a bounty of 5.1 billion credits, and his basic information. She couldn't help but marvel at Jiang Yan's connections and immense power. No wonder he kept trying to dissuade her from taking action. If he'd seriously offended a Star Core Hunter, Bronya couldn't imagine the consequences for Beloberg.

But the good news is that with the help of Silva and Pella, Bronya persevered and read several research reports on the Punklod hacker. After gaining a deeper understanding of the dwarf, Bronya felt much better.

In her opinion, the guy in front of her who called himself Silver Wolf was most likely similar to the Rememberer of Liuguang Yiting. He was some strange memetic creature that could multiply and spread by copying memes.

This kind of person doesn't even have a physical body, so naturally they have no carnal desires, let alone human emotions. If they have any desires, it's probably to spread their memes as much as possible.

If that's the case, why should I bother with her? Even if Jiang Yan is a pervert, can he really enjoy such a perverted way of spreading memes?

How to fall in love when you have different values?

Since the other party had no intention of hanging some similar colors on her in her bedroom, Bronya naturally didn't want to earn the 5.1 billion credit points that she might not even have the life to earn, let alone the life to spend. She just wanted to quickly satisfy all the other party's needs and send this plague god away.

If she likes to spread memes, let her spread them. Anyway, this planet already has a lot of rift phantoms, and it doesn't matter if there are a few more unknown weird creatures.

Thinking of this, Bronya forced herself to ignore the scene in front of her that made her blood pressure soar. After resisting the urge to borrow Natasha's hand cannon and blow this close family of seven to ash, she spoke relatively calmly:

"Has the data been transferred?"

Hearing Bronya's words, Jiang Yan pointed at Prometheus with a wry smile and said:

"Here, this is the result. My 'daughter', also the most powerful AI, Prometheus."

Jiang Yan had come to terms with it. After all, the handheld still had a whole Ether Front event to compete in at Beloberg, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hide it from the ruler of this planet. Rather than being embarrassed later, it would be better to communicate in advance and ask the other party to help cover it up.

"Daughter?" Even though she was prepared, Bronya was still nearly thrown off by this bizarre claim. Although she already knew that memetic beings had strange perspectives beyond human comprehension, Bronya still hadn't expected these creatures to go so far as to pounce on someone and then simply replicate their memes and have children?

How is this different from a swarm of locusts that lay eggs and lay eggs when they pounce on people?

Daughter? How can she be considered a daughter? At most, she is a parasite on the host!

Thinking of this, Bronya suddenly felt that what she was seeing was likely a memetic creature's way of deceiving humans. This routine of giving birth to a child in three days and then getting married with the child, for a human with a strong sense of responsibility, wouldn't it be a special attack? As for what exactly they were trying to deceive, it was beyond her, a normal human, to understand.

No, I can't keep watching him get tricked by strange alien creatures!

Thinking of this, Bronya stood up without hesitation, reached out and grabbed Jiang Yan's arm, intending to pull him out of the door without saying anything.

How could Prometheus tolerate this strange creature of flesh and blood daring to steal his father? In a flash, a huge mechanical hand appeared and bent its index finger, ready to flick Bronya out of the door. Jiang Yan was shocked by this and quickly hugged Prometheus in his arms:

"Dad has some important business with her. Be obedient. I'll be back soon."

Even after becoming a living being, Silver Wolf's supreme authority still made Prometheus subconsciously obey all of Jiang Yan's orders. So, even though he was still very unhappy, Prometheus still deactivated the reality editor. After watching Jiang Yan and Bronya both leave the room, he looked at Silver Wolf expressionlessly:

"Mom, Dad is gone."

"Yeah, damn AFK guy! But it doesn't matter, I can crack his broken password in five seconds. Okay! "Worker", you take over his account!" Silver Wolf said nonchalantly.

Even though her understanding of the relationship between her and Jiang Yan had changed in her heart, in the eyes of Silver Wolf, Jiang Yan was still far less fun than the game. As long as he didn't come to disrupt the group every time, she wouldn't care what those humans in estrus wanted to do by dragging Jiang Yan away.

Sadly, this preference wasn't passed down to Prometheus. Emotions were merely a string of code for the Punklord hacker, but for Sui Yang, they were an irreplaceable need and a delicacy. Having just left Jiang Yan's embrace, even though his true form was still within him, Prometheus could still feel the excitement, care, and doting of being away from Jiang Yan. The sense of contentment that had once filled his body gradually vanished from his body like a bowl of steaming water.

Even though the hackers of Punklod were transmitting large amounts of information to her to make her stronger; even though her four sisters and mother were playing games and helping her improve the model to make herself more perfect; but this bliss for the hackers of Punklod was still not a substitute for Prometheus's satisfaction. Instead, it made the emptiness grow bigger and bigger and more and more unbearable.

Not long after, Prometheus could no longer bear it and put down the handheld device, and made a request to Silver Wolf:

"Mom, I want to go to the human settlement to learn about the real world. Come with Dad and take me there."

Oops, I've been entangled by a fool! : Chapter 109: Complex Relationships

On the other side, after secretly pushing Jiang Yan into her bedroom, Bronya started a small meme biology class for him.

Memetic creatures? What the hell?

Jiang Yan was confused. Aren’t these guys energy creatures?

However, Bronya's introduction quickly captured his attention. According to her, Silver Wolf and Prometheus were cybernetic ghosts whose souls were information. They existed as long as people knew them, but ceased to exist when no one knew them. Any attempt to harm them was meaningless; as long as people knew them, they were immortal. Because of this trait, they were extremely fond of self-propagation and replication, and Jiang Yan was one of their chosen seedbeds...

Although there were some subtle differences, Jiang Yan had to admit that compared to a standard energy creature like Sui Yang, the Punklord hacker who could escape along the Internet cable seemed to be more in line with the definition of a memetic creature. At least he seemed to be the "seedling bed".

So, Prometheus is a hybrid of a memetic creature and an energy creature, the daughter born from Silver Wolf, his sister and himself?

Jiang Yan, who had just begun to associate something, immediately shook his head violently and gave up on delving into this forbidden knowledge that humans should not understand. At the same time, he looked at Bronya in confusion.

Why was she suddenly sharing this strange little bit of information with me? It must have been difficult to get so much information.

It was only then that Bronya revealed the meat of the story. Faced with this nearly indestructible, troublesome creature, Bronya didn't intend to let Jiang Yan do a cyber ghost hunt. Instead, she calmly advised him not to get carried away, saying that this cyber wife and cyber daughter were too different:

"...So, when dealing with these strange creatures, never judge your relationship with them by human emotions. You are just a victim. Stay calm and get what you need."

Jiang Yan did take Bronya's concern to heart, but he had a strange understanding of it:

Yes, Bronya, you're a genius! Why can't I think of this way to whitewash and prevent social death?

After throwing out a bunch of strange concepts, things naturally went to another track.

A Cyber ​​daughter must be recognized, but a Cyber ​​wife can be denied!

I have been entangled by memetic creatures and have been contaminated by memes. I am a victim!

What do you know about meme creatures?

Jiang Yan immediately said excitedly to the man who had saved his reputation:

"Bronya, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long it would take me to figure it out."

Faced with Jiang Yan's willingness to accept advice, Bronya was naturally very happy. After three days of being depressed, she finally smiled again:

"It's nothing. Since it happened to me, I naturally won't ignore it. My friend, if you need any help, please feel free to ask."

Help? That's what you said!

Facing Bronya's support, Jiang Yan quickly said:

"Speaking of which, I really need your help. The Silver Wolf Star Core Hunter's reputation is a bit shady throughout the universe. If word gets out that Prometheus was created by her, it'll be quite troublesome for both her and me. Bronya, can you please come to a consensus and say that Prometheus is a super AI developed by the Beloberg Academy, a memetic lifeform born from the meme-like transformation caused by the Rift?"

With everything undecided and the world rift affecting him, Jiang Yan proudly threw out his own ideas.

When Jiang Yan thought about how people like Bronya and Seele, who had been dealing with the Rift all their lives, mistook the Silver Wolf for a creature from the Rift, he thought of the Rift as the perfect scapegoat.

Even after thousands of years of research into star cores and rifts, no one in the universe dares to claim complete mastery. Even the technologically advanced Black Tower Station couldn't restore a rifted module, let alone other forces.

I told you that memefication was caused by the Rift, and you don't believe me? I've already come back alive, and you're still questioning me? Do you want to spend a few days in there too?

Faced with this reason, Bronya also nodded.

Indeed, if something inexplicably bizarre happened in Beloberg, it would probably be reasonable to attribute it to the Rift Realm. The Rift Realm wouldn't dispute it, after all. Over the past seven hundred years, countless unsolved cases have been uncovered, so this one wouldn't be a big deal.

Jiang Yan, who received Bronya's approval, said even more proudly:

"If that's the case, even Prometheus's appearance can be explained. Isn't it normal for the Beloberg Academy to design an AI based on the image of the Great Guardian?"

"Eh? Me?"

Bronya never expected that Jiang Yan would even let her claim the memetic creature.

How can this be...it doesn't seem impossible.

As for the scandal with Jiang Yan, Bronya has long been numb to the point that she doesn't feel itchy even if there are too many lice. As long as he is not forced to ascend the throne in a wedding robe, and the people of Beloberg are happy, it's fine. What does it matter if there is one more scandal?

Thinking back to Prometheus, sitting in Jiang Yan's arms, looking almost identical to her childhood self, and then imagining herself replacing the Silver Wolf and sitting beside him, like a family of three, Bronya couldn't help but hesitate. Although she couldn't choose this kind of happy life, it seemed nice to experience it with her "adopted daughter"!

However, after falling in love, Bronya became anxious and worried.

Is it too unreserved to acknowledge this "mother" without saying anything? Will it cause the other party to have some strange misunderstandings?

No, I have to at least find a plausible reason...

So Bronya did not agree immediately, but opened the portable terminal and said to Jiang Yan:

"Wait a moment, I'll ask Pella to confirm the feasibility."

Soon, Pera, who was handling official business in Krippenburg, was summoned to Bronya's bedroom.

Jiang Yan "transmitted data" in his own bedroom for three days and three nights, and transmitted the cruel life of a child. Bronya did not hide it from Pera. Even the relevant information about the memetic creatures was collected by this intelligence officer.

However, even though she understood the reason, Pella still hated Jiang Yan for putting a hat of harmony on Bronya in Bronya's bedroom. When she saw Jiang Yan this time, she naturally didn't have a good face. She wanted to use the floater cannon to make a few holes in this guy's stupid head.

However, soon, Pella was completely stunned by Jiang Yan's imagination.

Good man, you're caught in adultery and you're going to kill the mother and keep the daughter, recognizing Bronya as your legal mother? Have you seen too many harem dramas produced by Epseron Entertainment, you bastard?

Well, this is a harem... but you've adapted to the environment a bit too much! How could Beloberg play such a perverted game?

But even though Pella had a thousand complaints in her heart, she lost her temper when she saw her great guardian looking willing and only asking this great scholar to debate for her.

You're clearly a great defender of the parliamentary system, yet you can tolerate such primitive social dregs? Even I, the spectator, can't tolerate it!

However, looking at Jiang Yan's neatly dressed appearance, Pella finally lowered her shoulders and sighed silently.

Oh... forget it, a stepmother is better than an aunt.

What else can she expect from an emotional loser who has been stuffing someone into her bedroom for so long and still can't get rid of them, and even had her home stolen? Even if she is not her biological child, even if she is not even human, having a "daughter" will always make the two of them closer.

So Pera started thinking about how to argue for this "adopted daughter of the Great Guardian".

She had already earned a double honors degree before she even reached adulthood, and was widely acknowledged to possess the brightest mind in all of Beloberg. After a short while, she began to speak:

"For Jiang Yan's safety, Grand Guardian, please accept this arrangement. Being possessed by a memetic creature is a serious matter, and we must implement some degree of countermeasures. Since memes can contaminate us, we can naturally contaminate them in return, just like fictional historians. Therefore, I support the idea that "Prometheus is a super AI originating from the Academy, possessing a soul due to the influence of the Rift." As for the Academy, we can simply attribute the "use of our own AI to counter the Interstellar Peace Company's source code" to a non-existent top-secret project team."

Good man, when it comes to spreading rumors, you have to be a cultured person!

The reason given by Pera was so powerful that even Jiang Yan began to doubt whether such a project team really existed.

When faced with the reason of "for Jiang Yan's life safety", Bronya readily accepted it.

The only question left was how to present Prometheus to the public in a very natural way, without creating any inexplicable trend like the last "wedding robe" incident.

The other party is living in Jiang Yan's body. You can't put him in a museum display case for the public to visit for three days.

"Direct publicity would be too deliberate. Great Guardian, find a few days for you and Jiang Yan to go shopping with Miss Prometheus. Beloberg's newspapers and radio stations will handle the rest for you. This will also help to address the recent public outcry that has been trying to force you two to marry."

"Great Guardian, Jiang Yan, you don't want to worry about being put in a wedding gown every time you go out, do you?" Pella stared into Jiang Yan's eyes and said with a hint of threat.

Pera's words directly hit Jiang Yan and Bronya's weak spot.

Both of them knew that as long as Jiang Yan continued to help Beloberg, the Beloberg people would never give up their plan to wrap the Great Guardian in a ribbon and give it to him.

That's because Bronya's reputation in Beloberg was sky-high, and everyone was reluctant to lose this great guardian. Otherwise, if Cocolia were in power, Beloberg's military nobles would have already staged a coup—no, forced a marriage—and shipped Cocolia off to Rofu. After all, that girl's only saving grace was her lingering charm. Having gotten rid of the blindly commanding Dacong and repaid a debt of gratitude was a perfect double blessing.

Faced with this kind of public opinion, you can hide it once, but can you hide it every time?

Not to mention the distant future, does Jiang Yan have to imitate that masked weirdo and wear a mask throughout the Ether Front Competition?

So, why not just fast forward to the moment where the Grand Guardian has already fathered a child for Beloberg's savior? And you noobs are still thinking about getting married? That's hilarious.

The position of the Grand Guardian is one of lifelong celibacy. Previous Grand Guardians have already set an example of having children without getting married, without even any moral pressure. Isn't that perfect?

As for public opinion and moral integrity, the official blame naturally falls on Rift. This is clearly the Academy's super AI, and due to the magical effects of Rift, a memetic life form was accidentally created! Believe it or not, that's how we'll promote it. As for how the public spreads it, whether they believe it or not, we can't control it. At most, we can perform a few miracles to dispel the rumors!

Bronya was stunned by this kind of routine, and even began to suspect that this guy was the mastermind behind the popular trend of "wearing wedding robes".

How badly does this guy want to get married? Why are you, a minor, so interested in this? Have you been hooked on "Snow Country Adventure"? I'll ban this rotten book that's poisoning the youth of Beloberg!

However, her intelligence officer said everything, both good and bad, and Bronya could not find any reason to refuse.

It's just a stroll, isn't it? Reputation? What reputation do I even have? Thanks to you, my kindhearted people, this little story has even reached Epseron!

Ever since she heard a radio drama based on herself one night, with the announcer confidently introducing her "real backstory," Bronya had lost all interest in redeeming her reputation. As long as she wasn't forced to establish the Rand Empire, she could do whatever she wanted.

Even Bronya chose to give up, so Jiang Yan naturally didn't care.

As Yarilo No. 6's communications with Rofu became more frequent, the rumors about him and Bronya had already spread in countless versions through the mouths of the Belobergs who came to recuperate and trade, constantly adding fuel to his already extremely strange reputation in Rofu.

When one is away from home, bragging and talking nonsense are inevitable. The already outrageous newspaper rumors were amplified by this group of people, becoming a perpetual topic of teasing when friends get together:

"Xiao Jiang, when will you bring your two older nephews from Beloberg back to show us?"

"Who are you listening to?"

"The Belobergs showed me all the newspapers!"

"Can you believe the newspaper?"

"But several newspapers say so!"

"That's all bullshit! I've been there for less than a year, so how did these two children come from? Were they grown in a petri dish?"

"Of course I can't say that about others, but you are Xiao Jiang!"

I've already "given birth" to rumors seven or eight times, so what's there to be afraid of? The game has already upgraded to the point where I gave birth to a dragon, so how can such old news make a splash?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan nodded and replied:
