Chapter 191
That is to welcome the arrival of Ms. Herta.
The next moment.
The spaceship's hatch opened, and a young girl wearing a pointed hat, like a magic user, appeared in the center of the hatch.
However, the first to come out of the hatch were rows of puppets.
They laid out a soft and fluffy carpet, laying it all the way to Lin Qi.
Then they divided into two rows and stood on both sides of the carpet.
Full of ritual.
And then.
That "magical girl" stepped out and walked off the spaceship.
"Not bad, this welcoming ceremony."
The magical girl said so.
"Is that so? I thought you would dislike it." Lin Qi was surprised.
"How could that be? Although someone didn't put their heart into it, my puppets laid the carpet very straight!" Herta snorted lightly and said so.
Lin Qi then understood that she wasn't praising him, but her puppets.
One can only say...
It really is worthy of being Herta.
Thus.
After Ruan Mei, another genius visited Jarilo.
94. Simulated Universe upgrade? Lin Qi's Aeon creation plan
The relationship between Lin Qi and Herta is actually a bit special, and it is very different from Ruan Mei.
To describe it in four words, it is both teacher and friend.
Speaking of the latter, they can be considered quite close friends.
As for the former...
Sometimes Herta is the master, and sometimes Lin Qi is the master.
However, in recent years, Lin Qi has been the "master" more often.
It is mainly because with the increase in influence points, Lin Qi has drawn more and more technology, and the great Ms. Herta hadn't had time to figure out a problem before Lin Qi obtained quite a few new technologies again.
Back and forth.
Herta gradually became a "student."
Actually, at the beginning, Lin Qi asked her for advice more often.
Later on.
Herta's questions became more and more, so many that some Lin Qi couldn't answer.
More importantly, he didn't have time.
Therefore.
Lin Qi temporarily left the Herta Space Station.
And since then, the number of times Herta herself went to the space station has gradually become less.
Although the two have been in contact, meeting in person outside of puppets is the first time in ten years.
However, after not seeing each other for so many years, it doesn't seem unfamiliar at all.
It is still as familiar as before they parted.
"Before I came, I thought you were just messing around, thinking why didn't you go to the space station to be the station master; now I know, it turns out you thought my place was too small!"
Herta looked at the Dyson ring, her tone sounding both like praise and sarcasm.
"How could that be? Azure Star is also my home planet; I wouldn't dislike any place, let alone Azure Star!" Lin Qi replied.
"Changing the subject! I'm talking about the space station, not Azure Star!" Herta's tone became heavier, but she soon recovered, "Forget it, expecting the space station to keep you was not realistic to begin with; seeing that the acting station master you found is doing quite well, I forgive you."
"Thank you for Ms. Herta's understanding!" Lin Qi replied quickly.
Two years ago, Asta followed Lin Qi's instruction and went to the space station to be the acting station master.
Currently, judging from Herta's feedback, she is doing quite well.
"Hmph! One thing at a time; you stood me up for ten years and hid from me, I haven't settled that account with you yet!"
Herta turned her head, only showing Lin Qi a side profile.
Suddenly.
She seemed to have thought of something and turned her head back to ask.
"I asked you to get me an Anywhere Door; how did you reply?"
"Did you ask?" Lin Qi asked in confusion.
"Do you want me to take out the key and smash it on your forehead to help you recall it properly?" Herta said angrily.
"I remember now!" Lin Qi suddenly realized, "It seems there was such a thing! I seemed to have promised you at the time, saying I would build you a super plus version of the Anywhere Door, the only one in the universe that can cross star systems! Yes, that's it!"
"Heh~"
Herta sneered and didn't expose him, asking again.
"So, where is that super plus version of the Anywhere Door?"
"Isn't it... because key technology hasn't been broken through yet, so it hasn't been built."
Lin Qi said embarrassedly.
"If I believed your nonsense, I might as well believe that the mechanical head is actually Aha in disguise! Anyway, the Aeon images of both of them are a big round ball!" Herta said unhappily.
"It really is worthy of being Ms. Herta, discovering the number one secret of the universe so quickly!" Lin Qi praised.
"Hehe~"
Herta didn't bicker with Lin Qi anymore; anyway, she had vented her anger enough.
"Then forget about that super plus version of the Anywhere Door; just get me a normal version, and I'll take it as you making amends to me."
"In addition, I came here for a matter, but the chat software is too slow; one or two sentences are fine, but if the information volume is large, it's easy to not explain it clearly."
"Let me briefly summarize my purpose for coming here."
"Simulated Universe, do you remember?"
Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Of course I remember; the answer Nous gave me was this. Why? Is this project completed?"
"Just about."
Herta walked while saying, "But because I upgraded it, it is still in the debugging stage. However, the point is not this, but your test candidate for the Simulated Universe; have you found them?"
"..."
Test?
What test?
Did Lin Qi dare to say he had forgotten?
There's no helping it.
The matter of the Simulated Universe had been quite a few years.
Thinking back, it was about eight years ago.
At that time, he had just been gazed at by two Aeons.
Afterward.
It was busy with Jarilo, which is the building of his own force.
Then he was busy until now.
Where would he have time to find a tester for the Simulated Universe?
"I knew you forgot!"
Herta had an "as expected" expression.
Obviously.
Lin Qi's reaction was within her expectations.
Then, she directly gave her solution.
"If you haven't found a suitable test candidate, then you test it yourself; that's very reasonable, right?"
Hearing Herta's words, Lin Qi didn't answer immediately.
Instead, after thinking for a while, he asked.
