Chapter 106: The Weak Scientist Is Bad at Combat

“Then let me see if your technical ability can surpass my Omniscient Domain!”

“Within my Omniscient Domain, I am the rule!”

She stepped forward, and a chain of causality materialized out of thin air before her.

The scalpel slashed along the chain of causality.

“Hm?”

Ruan Mei frowned.

She could sense that the Lord of Silence severed a crucial, unknown node with every strike.

Is she trying to slowly cut away her own information encryption, then follow the causality to erase herself in one stroke?

Ruan Mei’s expression flickered, then returned to calm: “Futile effort! I admit, your Omniscient Domain can turn all unknowns into knowns.”

“This technique does hold a sliver of potential to kill me.”

“But only if Itachi can truly crack my information encryption!”

As Ruan Mei spoke, the cloned [Star-Shattered King Worm] suddenly ignited out of nowhere in the nutrient tank.

The spectral afterimage of the Star God of Fertility, Tai Ziyuluo, appeared out of thin air, transforming into an overwhelming torrent of complex data that drowned the Lord of Silence.

For this universe, Star Gods represent information black holes!

Ruan Mei didn’t need to fully decrypt all of Tai Ziyuluo’s data.

She only needed to locate this segment of the information black box and hurl it before the Lord of Silence.

As long as it couldn’t be breached, Ruan Mei’s technology was absolutely unbreakable!

Seeing the situation was hopeless, Polka Kakamu’s figure began to fade. She gazed deeply at Ruan Mei: “I hope your Tai Ziyuluo’s data never burns out… Next time, the outcome will be entirely different!”

Yet the next instant, countless rhombic mirrors materialized out of nowhere.

Each mirror refracted light and shadows from different dimensions of the universe.

These dimensional lights and shadows locked the Lord of Silence firmly in place.

“Hmph! Polka Kakamu, Itachi think Itachi can just leave without playing with me?”

At that moment, the figure of the Great Black Tower also appeared on the scene, staring at Polka Kakamu, her eyes glinting with cold fury: “I’d like to see what gives Itachi the audacity to keep sabotaging my Black Tower research—again and again!”

Recalling how every time she was on the verge of success, unforeseen accidents had ruined her experiments.

The Black Tower’s gaze toward the Lord of Silence was unmistakably hostile.

“For countless amber eons, I’ve erased countless variables and possibilities—but the birth of geniuses has always been beyond my control.”

Facing the unexpected intrusion of the Black Tower, Polka Kakamu’s expression had now become utterly serene.

Yet the fate energy swirling around her grew even more violent, nearly boiling over.

A near-substantial concept of [Omniscience] and [Causality] began spreading endlessly, filling the entire cosmos.

Even Ruan Mei, far away, grew grave—this pressure had surged a thousandfold beyond what she’d felt facing the Lord of Silence alone!

This was the Lord of Silence in her peak form—Polka Kakamu!

“In the past, when I killed #7 Seat Bóhuán, #8 Seat Lám, #9 Seat Kleine, and #27 Seat Rupert, none of them faced what I am now. Itachi are the first, Black Tower.”

The Black Tower’s expression had turned utterly serious. She knew this confrontation would not end quietly, as before, with her experiments merely sabotaged and the opponent vanishing.

“Black Tower, your experiments with Hermes have utterly shattered the Perfect Future Model calculated by the Omniscient One.”

“Now Itachi’re dragging Ruan Mei and Screwgum into this experiment as well.”

“I can no longer tolerate your actions!”

As Polka Kakamu spoke, she twisted her scalpel, as if ready to sever the universe’s variables and restore stability to this perfect cosmic model, now teetering into uncontrollable chaos.

“Polka Kakamu, seeing Itachi in person, I’m already beginning to wonder why the Great Mechanical Head ever selected Itachi for the Genius Club.”

The resolve in the Lord of Silence’s eyes made the Black Tower find her utterly incomprehensible. She sneered coldly: “We are geniuses. Learning the known, exploring the unknown—that is an instinct etched into our very souls!”

“But look at yourself now—are Itachi still a genius?”

Can Itachi deny the unknown just to preserve your Omniscient Domain and the Omniscient One’s calculations?

Where is the breadth of vision a true genius should possess?

“Enough talk. Let me see the courage behind your defiance!”

Words fell flat; both women had banished all hesitation from their minds.

As Envoys, their bodies unleashed an almost infinite torrent of Fate energy in an instant—neither held back a single ounce.

BOOM!

Who says Fate-Path practitioners of the Path of Knowledge are scientists who can’t fight?

It’s a joke!

To ordinary people, their Path of Knowledge energy lacks the visceral destructive power of, say, Destruction.

But in the hands of geniuses, every single ounce of their power can leverage a hundredfold or thousandfold multiplier, unleashing unimaginable, terrifying force.

The greatest sound is silent.

Throughout the entire cosmic galaxy, every major power capable of monitoring the galaxy noticed two terrifyingly brilliant suns slowly rising in the cosmos!

Merely from the impact of their clash, a torrent of imaginary energy had formed a cosmic catastrophe.

Ruan Mei, present at the scene, was nearly flung into another galaxy by the sudden, overwhelming force.

“Ruan Mei, come to me.”

At the critical moment, Hermes wrapped his arm around Ruan Mei’s waist and pulled her to his side.

“Hermes!”

Seeing the man suddenly appear, Ruan Mei wasn’t surprised—but…

She glanced from the Black Tower, radiating unshakable confidence, to the man before her, whose very presence screamed something deeply wrong. Her eyes betrayed unmistakable shock.

Unlike their previous remote communication, now that he stood before her in person, Ruan Mei’s mind was swept by a storm of disbelief.

In that instant, she felt this man had undergone an unimaginable transformation since the first time she’d seen him at the club.

As the pinnacle of cosmic life science, Ruan Mei’s perception was extraordinary.

The moment she looked, she nearly thought he wasn’t human at all—but…

A god!

A Star God!

“I have not yet ascended to godhood.”

As if sensing what Ruan Mei was about to say, Hermes offered a faint smile and explained.

Not yet ascended?

That meant he already had the power to ascend?

Meanwhile, the troubled Luo Fu Immortal Vessel, mere star systems away from the battle between the Black Tower and Hermes, was caught in the crossfire.

General Jingyuan, the Divine Strategist, felt two torrents of imaginary power—thousands of times beyond his own limits—crushing down upon him.

His face turned ashen.

Unjust misfortune!

Utterly unjust misfortune!
