I'm playing Honkai Impact 3

"You, you, how...how did you...become...like this?"

Stephen asked, somewhat stammering and flustered, his voice barely audible.

Although the other person is not the same type of socially anxious person as himself, he is indeed one of the people Stephen finds easiest to communicate with.

Especially the section on gamified test design within a simulated universe.

He liked to design tests like games, and Xingqiong happened to enjoy playing games.

Qiong could offer him many imaginative yet highly valuable suggestions, and the two often discussed game mechanics and Easter egg designs in an encrypted channel.

After a while, they became quite familiar with each other.

This surprised both Heita and Nguyen Mai.

As long-time technical collaborators, they were well aware of Stephen's level of social anxiety, and they never expected that Qiong could become friends with Stephen.

"Oh, this? It's just a small opening."

Qiong originally didn't want to activate it, after all, who knew what impact the transformation into Yog Sothoth would have on the simulated universe.

But Polka insisted on forcing him to show off his skills, what could he do?

There's nothing I can do about it~

Well, the ability to defeat Polka was entirely due to Sora's superb control, and had nothing to do with the hero Yog Sothos's stats.

"Young Master..."

Only after confirming that the stranger-looking girl was actually a familiar person did Stephen emerge from his social anxiety and calm down.

Then he discovered the anomaly in the simulated universe.

"this!"

"Who...who...used some kind of cheat device?"

"How did the simulated universe become...like this?"

Not only is there new, unknown knowledge everywhere, but a lot of data has also gained new knowledge, come alive, and developed self-awareness.

Much data has disappeared from the bottom layer, as if it has merged into the void, or been swallowed by the void.

The entire simulated universe looks similar to before, but in reality, it has been completely transformed!

"Ahem, let's not worry about the simulated universe for now."

Qiong waved her hand, indicating that she had already done her best to control the effects of Yog-Sothoth's power.

"What are you planning to do with this guy?"

The white-haired, purple-eyed girl pointed at the malfunctioning Polka.

"Should we kill him?"

"Can you do it?"

The Great Black Tower straightened her clothes, which had become disheveled from when Qiong Jerry had been crawling all over her.

"It's possible within a simulated universe."

With Yog Sothos's status, strength, and fully upgraded six-god equipment, Qiong was invincible in the simulated universe for ten minutes with her friend's assistance!

Let alone Polka, even if Aha came, Qiong was confident she could turn him into a funny little girl in a skirt!

However, the limitation of this power is that it cannot transcend the simulated universe, and the restrictions are much stricter than those of Tom and Jerry.

After all, having friends assist you in battle is a reward for completing the simulated universe series of missions.

Dungeon only.

“Polka’s life form is very special; this is not all of Polka.”

The Great Black Tower nodded and added, "She possesses the power to freely manifest along the causal chain."

"Whether it's imitating her data entity, studying her files, or even just calling her by name, she can sense it. Tch, she's almost as good as a witch with magic."

"From the perspective of biomorphology."

Ruan Mei’s voice was gentle, “Similar to a rare causal-level meme life form.”

"Perhaps it's related to her research project."

Polka could sense if anyone in the universe thought of her, missed her, or wanted to make progress.

As soon as she senses that the Black Tower's research is at risk of going beyond the circle of knowledge, she will arrive silently and use her ability to manipulate probability to make her experiment fail.

This ensures that no genius in the universe can step outside the circle of knowledge.

"How can anyone else possibly compete with such a powerful Grand Assassin?"

Star's Commentary.

"Therefore, I cannot be sure whether the person I killed in the simulated universe was the real her."

Qiong was not the real Yog Sothoth after all; she did not possess the other's knowledge and was merely borrowing the other's body and power.

According to Polka, the contest between geniuses is a model of erudite thinking, and the selected geniuses are mostly capable and willing to create intellectual singularities.

However, the "omniscience" aspect of the machine head's divinity should be greater than the "seeking knowledge."

Therefore, Polka could kill other geniuses as easily as cutting vegetables.

Is that guy with the machine head really that eager to improve?

Let the geniuses suffer, and let Polka bear the infamy?

"If you're unsure, why kill them?"

The big black tower shrugged.

"Although I can't kill her, I can keep her under control for a long time."

All Qiong needs to do is use her body's instincts to fill Polka to the brim, completely occupying her CPU, and she can truly become Kars.

Before that knowledge is digested, it all becomes a sculpture.

Do you need it?

Qiong looked at the Black Tower. He believed that after this, Polka would never dare to approach him again without a sufficient plan and confidence.

"never mind."

Daheita waved his hand, his tone somewhat listless.

"Just when we successfully invited the fifth genius to join the simulated universe project, she declined. Well, knowing the answer is enough."

It truly lives up to its name, Black Tower.

"At a time like this, you're still thinking of inviting her?"

Xing scratched his head, not understanding.

"Sigh~ The more I think about it, the more it's a pity. Her ability to manipulate probability and simulate the universe are a perfect match."

The big black tower looked regretful.

"If we could collaborate, so many interesting projects could be accelerated."

She seemed to see countless experimental plans that had become incredibly sophisticated and efficient thanks to Polka's abilities.

"Alas, Black Tower and Polka, what a tragic couple."

Xing followed suit and sighed in a mocking manner.

"There's no need for that."

Ruan Mei and Luo Sigu both rejected Qiong's proposal, even though Polka might threaten their lives.

However, once they know her methods and objectives, they are fully capable of dealing with her as long as they take targeted precautions and establish early warning mechanisms in advance.

Moreover, the polka dot can be used as a marker to indicate whether one is about to step out of the circle of knowledge.

Once she comes to me, it means that I have reached the edge of the knowledge circle in the corresponding research area.

This is actually a different kind of "recognition" and "beacon".

"Truly a genius."

Since none of the main figures cared, Qiong naturally prioritized Ruan Mei and Hei Ta's opinions.

“Then we won’t kill them, but…”

The white-haired, purple-eyed little girl walked towards the sculpted Polka and peeled away the cognitive filters from her face.

A face that could be described as stunningly beautiful, exuding the charm of a mature and sophisticated woman, yet appearing somewhat serene due to a loss of consciousness, was exposed to the starlight of the simulated universe.

"I'm going to Photoshop her photo into an emoji and upload it to the most prominent section of the Interstellar Peace Network."

"Yes, yes, yes! Let's do it that way!"

The big black tower's eyes lit up instantly, and it clapped its hands excitedly and jumped up, all its previous regret vanishing.

"You and I are thinking the same thing!"

Volume 1: Chapter 776 Ta'er, It's Time to Pay Back the Debt

Inside the Black Tower Laboratory.

"Ugh."

Ge You lay on the office chair in the Black Tower, which was even more comfortable than an armchair, and Qiong let out a long sigh, filled with endless emptiness.

A moment later, he turned over, face up, staring at the ceiling, and let out another melancholy sigh.

Elena sat on a chair not far away, with a famous Pinocchio Sky Wing Burger from Xing Share on the table. The golden and crispy fried wings emitted an enticing aroma.

She picked up a fried chicken wing and pointed it at the sky.

What's wrong with him?

Qiong turned around and faced her, and their eyes met.

When Elena saw Qiong, her eyes were empty and lifeless, and she was curled up in the armchair, like a dried-up salted fish that had lost its dreams.

"Has it been like this ever since we came out of that simulated universe?"

They blinked at each other, and Qiong, like a stranded fish, stretched forward, opened his mouth and took the fried chicken wings that Elena was pointing at him into his mouth, then lay back down.

Elena: "?"

She kept her hand raised, her mouth slightly open, and her eyes wide open.

Because Kyō's movements resembled those of a terminally ill patient, Irena did not perceive any intimacy in the feeding process.

The guy had a fried chicken wing in his mouth, too lazy to even move his hands, just fiddling with it with his mouth, his cheeks puffing out and deflated.

Then, with a tilt of his head, he spat the bone precisely onto the paper in Elena's hand with a "poof".

He slumped back into his chair, propped his head up, and sighed again.

"Ugh."

Qiong rolled over and opened her mouth to catch the plum blossom cake that Ruan Mei fed her.

Consuming some sugar can keep you in a good mood.

"Why are you sighing and groaning, Qiong?"

The screw makes a warm, magnetic sound.

His fingers moved rapidly across the holographic projection screen, processing complex data streams.

"The unknowable domain has completely disappeared."

"Although Lady Black Tower's project to calculate Miss Elena's magical model failed due to Polka's interference, it was not a complete loss; perhaps she gained even more."

Besides the knowledge left over from the simulated universe, Screwgoom saw the cenotaph that Emperor II had built for him, as well as the bouquet of flowers in front of the tomb.

That shattered his long-held understanding of anti-organic equations and even the Emperor.
