Chapter 744: You're the one with the heaviest taste, huh!

"What is it, exactly like this?"

"The stubborn donkey kept exerting force, completely failing to give Zhang Jie the answer he wanted; Zhang Jie clicked his tongue, truly somewhat helpless."

"It's just what you see."

"It's precisely because of that accidental crash that I gained my previous memories."

"Zhang Jie explained, and Lin Ran then fell into thought, but in reality she still didn't quite grasp how the two were related."

"But speaking of which, it turns out Zhang Jie crashed his own aircraft that time, and she had forgotten all about it."

"Back then I was just an ordinary person; strictly speaking, that crash was equivalent to me already being dead."

"Then, some mysterious entity found me interesting and started meddling."

"Zhang Jie shrugged and said that, so you tell me if he's right or not—couldn't this simulator be considered some kind of mysterious entity?"

"True and false, false and true—let alone others, even he himself doesn't know where this simulator actually comes from."

"So, I can't control this thing either."

"Zhang Jie spread his hands, indicating he was powerless, while Lin Ran fell into deep thought."

"She actually wasn't particularly angry about this, just a bit worried—if it keeps going like this, won't things eventually fall into chaos?"

"This guy who came this time brought something that almost destroyed an entire star field; as for the previous Xiao Jiu, I won't say anything—after all, he's one of our own, basically a pit we dug for ourselves."

"But what about the Blue Gem from before last time? Don't look at her now, all wronged and curled up on Yuan's leg—if she ever loses control, the Alliance will suffer an extremely heavy price because of her."

"So, if things keep going this way, Lin Ran doesn't know whether one day they'll truly face an enemy they can never deal with."

"The current Alliance—no, I should say all major civilizations today, even including the Star Sea Hall—are not the pinnacle of this universe."

"In the records of the Star Sea Hall, a civilization's technology once reached the point where they could casually fold an entire nebula; to them, the universe was like a toy."

"They could even freely reverse the spin direction of those gigantic black holes at the center of supergalaxy clusters; they could go wherever they wanted and do whatever they pleased."

"At that level, the Dawn Judgment would be to them no more than a firecracker, right?"

"Thinking of this, Lin Ran couldn't help but furrow her brow; the technology of those hidden civilizations might not reach the level he imagined, but it's certainly higher than that of any civilization currently active in the Star Sea."

"I just want to ask you...."

"Will this situation... have an end?"

"Lin Ran remained silent for a long time, and finally asked this."

"....."

"There is, of course there is an end."

"It should be coming soon.... not far away."

"Zhang Jie said with some relief, the mysterious marks have already gathered six, and so far he hasn't encountered any entropy disaster in this universe."

"That means the universe is still a very long way from heat death."

"I also don't know what pit the simulator has dug, but if we go by what Lin Ran said, when will it end?"

"Zhang Jie thought, it shouldn't be far off."

"....."

"So I'm just here to watch the show, then?"

"Yuan stroked the Blue Gem lying on his leg, somewhat speechlessly saying, her staying here isn't completely useless, is it?"

"\"Yuan Mama! Come on, say something for the Blue Gem! \"

"The Blue Gem panicked, wriggling on her leg, while Qi Yu remained curled up on the sofa, silent."

"Yuan chuckled, tapped his chin in thought for a moment, then spoke up."

"\"Zhang Jie, the future.... what do you plan to do about these things? \""

"Zhang Jie froze for a moment; this is also something he wants to know. Given his personality, if he can't give everyone an ending that satisfies him, he won't resign himself to it."

"But... it's easy to say, how do we do it?"

"Zhang Jie fell silent, Zhang Jie sank into thought, Zhang Jie remained speechless for a long time, Zhang Jie's CPU was a bit overloaded...."

"\"I also don't know... this thing... is really hard to solve. \""

"Zhang Jie helplessly sighed; the question Yuan asked was really too tricky, a short sentence that hit all of his current pain points."

"But, when the boat reaches the bridge it will naturally straighten—just because we can't solve it now doesn't mean we won't be able to in the future."

"\"Let's take it step by step.... \""

"\"Now for the serious matter, Qi Yu, how exactly did you come here? \""

"\"Ah? Oh! I am...... \""

"Qi Yu hesitated for a moment, then lifted his eyes to look at Zhang Jie."

"\"I was originally in another universe, but for some reason, your pheromone suddenly appeared. \""

"\"Just all of a sudden, very faint, very faint..... \""

"Zhang Jie:???"

"What she said—could it be just when she recently obtained the high-dimensional retrograde? Besides, it's across several universes; transmission should also need speed, right? How could she possibly detect it that quickly?"

"\"How did you detect it? Pheromone? Doesn't that require transmission? \""

"\"No! My pheromone isn't a smell or odor; it's a kind of... uh... quantum fluctuation similar to high-dimensional energy! \""

"Zhang Jie was completely bewildered; he hasn't done much research on high-dimensional energy, but Yuan is very interested in it."

"For a scientist, there's nothing happier than having a new system to study, because every step forward is a surprise."

"\"Little guy! Hurry up and tell me—what exactly is your pheromone communication like? \""

"\"Eh? Ah? Uh.... \""

"Qi Yu, not used to Yuan's enthusiasm, stumbled over his words for a long time without managing to say anything coherent."

"But Yuan couldn't wait; he quickly rose and moved closer, and the poor Blue Gem was tossed straight off his leg by him with a slap, landing on the floor."

Blue gemstone:?

The poor little catgirl felt so wronged she rolled and crawled all the way to Zhang Jie's leg, but still her Knight Sir is good!

"Teacher Yuan, let's still talk about the main matter first..."

Zhang Jie is speechless to death—look what you've turned this little worm girl into?

"Fine..."

Yuan nodded his head somewhat dejectedly, and now Qi Yu finally has a chance to speak.

"Master, why have you become like this now?"

She still isn't used to it, or rather, she still likes Zhang Jie's previous full-face whiskers look.

Zhang Jie:....

"You really like my previous full-face tentacles look that much?"

Lin Ran:?

"What?"

Full-face tentacles? What is that? Wait a moment, wait a moment!

Before she could react, Qi Yu pursed her lips and began to recall.

"Exactly, Master! I really like it! The way your whiskers wriggle is unlike anyone else's! It's very special!"

Zhang Jie:?

Lin Ran:?

"So you're the one with the heaviest taste!!"
