Chapter 92: Black Tower Super Evolution
In the Court of the Star Crown, within the courtyard.
Hermes and the Black Tower exchanged a glance, both simultaneously smiling with quiet delight.
It was the satisfied pleasure after pulling off something monumental.
“Phase One experiment… perfectly successful!”
Hermes smiled warmly and projected a virtual screen before him, displaying recent news from the Interstellar Peace Corporation to Flowying.
The Empress, the Grammer Empire, the Iron Cavalry, the friction between Interstellar Peace Corporation and the Grammer Empire…
Flowying stared blankly at the flood of information flashing before her.
Only this much time?
In just this short time, a Grammer Empire suddenly appeared?!
Is this what it means to control time, to rewrite history and reshape the past exactly as one desires?
This is simply…
Absolutely wonderful!
Flowying naturally also longed for companions—
Even if the former Grammer Empire was but a hollow dream.
Yet this faith was etched into her body, into her consciousness, utterly undeniable.
For this is the very meaning of the Grammer Iron Cavalry’s existence!
Though she never dreamed.
Yet what unfolded in reality was even more perfect than the most flawless world she could ever have imagined.
Tears glistened in Flowying’s eyes—was this the perfect answer Elios spoke of…?
“Thank Itachi. I am truly, deeply grateful.”
She choked out, kneeling before Hermes, her voice trembling with sobs: “Thank Itachi… for granting me this dreamlike reality…”
“Enough, Flowying.”
Hermes stepped before her, his voice gentle as he comforted: “This is not only what Itachi desired—it is also what I wished for.”
Watching the girl weeping with joy, Hermes, though rarely swayed by emotion, felt a faint warmth of satisfaction in his heart.
Turning imperfection into perfection, transforming sorrow and regret into pure beauty…
How many cultivators have sought this fulfillment and never found it?
Flowying is satisfied. Hermes is satisfied. Is this not the perfect outcome?
In the end, only Interstellar Peace Corporation was wounded—and the world was balanced.
“Istarlu!”
Hermes gave a slight nod.
“Understood, Lord Tianli!”
Istarlu, rare in her smile, stepped forward gently and led Flowying away.
“Black Tower, what’s wrong?”
After the two girls left, Hermes noticed Black Tower’s odd expression and asked curiously.
“Screwgum and Ruan Mei contacted me.”
Black Tower hesitated: “They’ve probably guessed this major event was our doing.”
Should we meet?
We’re all geniuses—who doesn’t know who?
Outsiders aside, every member of the Genius Club is seen as dangerous—a supreme terrorist.
But within the same club, if a major event occurs, a little calculation and deduction will almost always pinpoint the culprit—if no deliberate concealment was made.
“Then bring the connection in.”
After a brief pause, Hermes agreed to meet.
As Black Tower suspected, Hermes still couldn’t bring himself to refuse these two geniuses.
Just look at Black Tower—how long has she been here?
How much has she already helped Hermes?
Soon, two phantom projections appeared before them.
Seeing Black Tower and Hermes standing together, Ruan Mei’s eyes revealed quiet understanding, her voice as gentle as ever: “Black Tower, Itachi seem to have had quite a bit of fun this time.”
One glance was enough—Ruan Mei saw on Black Tower’s face that distinctive, faint satisfaction only those who’ve pulled off something grand possess.
“Hmph!”
Black Tower crossed her arms, her tone sharp, yet her eyes glinted with playful amusement: “Ruan Mei, Screwgum—Itachi two rarely come to me of your own accord.”
“When I wanted to simulate a universe, Itachi all either stalled or vanished completely…”
“Now Itachi’re suddenly in a hurry.”
She wasn’t surprised Ruan Mei had figured it out.
Screwgum’s mechanical body emitted a faint cold glow, stepping in with a soft sigh to steer the conversation back on track: “Black Tower, this isn’t a time for jokes.”
“Itachi and Hermes have pulled off a massive event!”
“Interstellar Peace Corporation is frantic—they’ve been probing me nonstop.”
“Not only that—the Immortal Boats Alliance is stirring.”
“The Reflection Court’s reaction is even more intense—the Mirror of Memories is operating at maximum overload!”
“Even secondary-tier major factions seem to have sensed something.”
Ruan Mei is a recluse—none of this matters to her.
But Screwgum is the sovereign of Screw Star, the spiritual leader of all non-organic life in the cosmos.
Facing this flood of overt and covert probes…
He cannot pretend not to see them.
His pressure is immense.
“It’s not just that, is it? I sense Polka Kakamu has already begun moving.”
Hermes’s eyes glinted with amusement: “If she hadn’t lost track of us both for now, she’d have shown up already.”
Actually, he was looking forward to it.
Free labor walking through the door—why wouldn’t he be pleased?
“Polka Kakamu?”
“Hmph!”
At the mention of her name, Black Tower sneered. Since arriving at the Court of the Star Crown and surging in power, she’d only now realized—this woman had been subtly manipulating and laying traps against her.
No doubt she sabotaged many of Black Tower’s experiments!
Keep in mind.
Many breakthroughs in research come from years of accumulation, followed by the capture of a fleeting spark of inspiration…
Polka Kakamu deliberately targeted those critical moments, giving just the slightest nudge.
And Black Tower’s inspiration vanished forever.
“If she dares show up again, I’ll make her regret it—I’ll show her Black Tower isn’t to be trifled with!”
The current Black Tower was supremely confident.
Though Polka Kakamu had existed far longer, possessed overwhelming first-mover advantage, and was a top-tier genius in complete form…
But Black Tower now had plenty of trump cards ready.
This time, she’d make her pay.
“Hmm? Black Tower, Itachi’ve improved a lot in this short time!”
“Now Itachi’re even thinking of taking on #4?”
Ruan Mei, watching the confident Black Tower, couldn’t help but show surprise in her gentle eyes.
Ruan Mei didn’t think Black Tower was inferior to Polka Kakamu.
It was simply that Black Tower was still too young—geniuses need time to mature.
“Hehehe!”
Black Tower smiled without speaking.
Hermes gained much—does that mean Black Tower gained nothing?
With just a few more spacetime interference experiments, Black Tower was confident she could achieve a Super Evolution—becoming—
Super Black Tower!
Then, who would be beating whom?
Polka Kakamu?
Even if I let Itachi use one hand, Super Black Tower will still reign supreme across the entire galaxy!
