Chapter 521

Just then, the phone rings. Asta answers the phone and says: "Arlan, how is it now?"

On the phone, Arlan's voice comes: "Miss, the staff on the space station have been comforted, but our permissions cannot reach the cabin where the Trailblazer arrived in the game."

Asta is not surprised and says: "It's okay, Arlan, you come back first. I will ask Ms. Herta for instructions on the subsequent matters."

After hanging up the phone, Asta also sees the short message sent by Herta——

【Herta: Wait until Ruan Mei comes to the space station to talk about it.】

Besides this, there are no other explanations or instructions.

Asta puts away her phone, sighs softly, and says helplessly: "Although looking at Ms. Herta's appearance, this crisis won't be a problem, but people on the space station are inevitably panicked."

Somewhere in the universe.

Ruan Mei looks at her experiment being exposed in the game's story, but her expression still has no changes.

Is there really anything in this world that makes her emotions fluctuate violently?

Ruan Mei shakes her head slightly and says: "It seems it is indeed necessary to go to Herta Space Station."

Lieutenant Yanqing is surprised: "Can Miss Ruan Mei really resurrect the Propagation Emanator?"

Jing Yuan shakes his head and says: "No, rather than resurrection, it's better to say cultivation, creation."

"However, thinking about doing this, even Miss Ruan Mei probably cannot truly do it. I guess the so-called Propagation Emanator that Miss Ruan Mei cultivated is not complete."

Lieutenant Yanqing hears this and also relaxes.

After all, looking at Firefly's PV, the pressure of those bugs still puts a lot of pressure on people's hearts.

On another unknown planet in the universe.

Firefly looks at Ruan Mei's experiment in the game's story, and her expression suddenly becomes solemn.

If there is anyone who hates those bugs the most, Firefly can definitely rank in the forefront.

Thinking of the comrades and companions who died in the Swarm War in the past, Firefly silently shakes her head.

【In the game's story, after all the records are read, Stelle's expression is also complex.】

【Just then, the Leftover-Reheating Robot in front of her emits a voice again: "Identification passed, hiss."】

【"Select the following services: 1. Visitor record query. 2. 【Petri Dish】 entrance opening."】

【From the visitor records, she knows that some time ago, there were Ruan Mei, alien species, and the plaster-head man.】

【Stelle looks at these records and is somewhat confused: (... seems like something has been added compared to before?)】

【Finally, thinking of the 【Big Trouble】 Ruan Mei mentioned at the beginning, and the truth of the experiment seen from the records, Stelle gulps and chooses to open the 【Petri Dish】 entrance.】

March 7th covers her forehead, looks at Stelle, and says: "I'm saying, are you that brave? Clearly knowing there is a 【Propagation Emanator】, you still dare to rush forward alone, don't you know how to ask us for help?"

Stelle giggles, puts her hands on her hips, and holds her head high: "Of course, I'm super brave."

March 7th covers her head and says speechlessly: "Don't be inexplicably confident in such a place."

Welt Yang adjusts his glasses, looks at the game's story, and is somewhat confused: "In that visitor record, Ruan Mei, alien species, I can understand, but that plaster-head man..."

"Could it be him?"

Himeko and Dan Heng look at each other and also think of a person. But how could he appear on Herta Space Station?

Luo Fu Xianzhou.

In a teahouse where players gather.

The adult Xianzhou man looks at the visitor list and also finds the point: "That plaster-head man, who do you think it is?"

A player at the next table guesses: "As far as the current situation is concerned, the only one who meets this condition is probably 【Dr. Ratio】, Professor Veritas Ratio."

The Foxian woman is also surprised: "Although so, what did Dr. Ratio come here for? Could it also be related to the Propagation Emanator cultivated by this Miss Ruan Mei?"

The Foxian woman's best friend says: "It's impossible to determine now. What if it's not Dr. Ratio?"

The companion next to the adult Xianzhou man also nods and says: "It's possible, but it's all Aventurine's fault. Now whenever I hear plaster-head, I think of Dr. Ratio."

【With the permission opened, Stelle also notices the movement from upstairs and guesses that the entrance should be there.】

【Walking up the stairs, opening the door switch, passing through a dim passage, she arrives at the elevator where she first arrived.】

【It is also here that Stelle sees a figure appearing in front of the elevator——】

【(Huh? There seems to be someone in the distance... Who is it?)】

【As Stelle gradually approaches, she sees a plaster-head man wearing blue clothes, looking at the utensils in front of him leisurely, appearing here.】

Live stream chat.

"Holy crap, this outfit, this voice, this chessboard, it's definitely Godfather."

"So, is this perhaps our first meeting with Dr. Ratio?"

"From the story, it should be like this. In this way, it can also explain why Dr. Ratio and the Trailblazer know each other in Penacony."

"Hahahaha, is Godfather's first appearance so flamboyant? Look at these crossed legs."

"Speaking of which, we should all be seeing Dr. Ratio wearing a plaster mask for the first time, right?"

"Hehehe, preparing to take a screenshot as a souvenir."

"But what did Professor Ratio come here for?"

"Probably for Miss Ruan Mei's experiment. After all, even if it's not a complete 【Propagation Emanator】, it shouldn't be underestimated. Although Dr. Ratio is sharp-tongued, he is a really good person."

Dan Heng looks at the content in the game's story, nods slightly, and says: "It seems this is Stelle's first meeting with Dr. Ratio. No wonder it looked very familiar in the Penacony story."

【In the game screen, Dr. Ratio gently plays with the white chess piece on the chessboard in front of him and says to himself: "Look——"】

【"A genius move, how will you break it?"】

【Subsequently, Dr. Ratio asks and answers himself: "Oh, only an idiot would ask such a question."】

【Saying this, Dr. Ratio moves the black chess piece and says: "Just move it here..."】

【Just then, a rush of footsteps comes, making Dr. Ratio's action of moving the chess piece pause, as if it interrupted Dr. Ratio's train of thought in playing chess.】

【Dr. Ratio puts away the chessboard, walks towards Stelle, and says: "You look very troubled."】

【"Encountered trouble?"】

【Stelle looks at the plaster-head man who is still a stranger at this time, seemingly preparing to say something. However, she only sees Dr. Ratio turn around calmly and say: "Since that's the case——"】

【"Think of a way yourself."】

Live stream chat.

"Holy crap! This sudden turn, it twisted my waist."

"Hahahaha, is this the first meeting between the Trailblazer and Dr. Ratio?"

"Haha, I inexplicably feel that Dr. Ratio here is a little bit cute, what's going on?"

"You are not alone."

"You are not alone."

"You are not alone."

"You are not alone."

"No, this can also be a meme. I never expected it."

"Before, Dr. Ratio was playing chess with himself, right? The perspective conversion feels a bit like a split personality."

"Dr. Ratio has a split personality? No way, I didn't feel it in the Penacony story?"

"Don't listen to the wind and rain..."

"Taking things out of context, excerpted from don't take things out of context."

"I have to say, this is indeed Dr. Ratio's flavor, very pure."

【In the game's story, looking at the dull Trailblazer, Dr. Ratio wearing a plaster mask says coldly: "What are you doing standing there? Do you have a lot of time? I don't think so. Take the elevator down, what you are looking for is there."】

【Stelle is surprised and says: "Do you know what I'm looking for?"】

【Dr. Ratio wearing a plaster mask says calmly: "Before asking, why not think about whether the answer is beneficial to the problem you are required to solve."】

【"If not, it's best not to ask. Clearly, both your time and mine are precious."】

【Suddenly, Dr. Ratio sighs helplessly and says: "... Forget it, let's just demonstrate: I know who you are, and I know you are working for Ruan Mei; I was originally a visitor to the space station, accidentally entered this place, and witnessed her experiment."】

【"My purpose is roughly the same as yours. Since you are here, I will not interfere; but if you fail, I will intervene forcefully to stop some unnecessary trouble."】

【"Knowing this is enough—a total of two sentences, very effective communication."】 ===== CHAPTER 522 =====
