"There are also quite a few Club members who get killed because of certain matters."

"Under such circumstances, it is even more impossible for you to meet all the Club members."

Luo Feng spread his hands and said to the Doctor.

"Can members of the Club also be killed by others?"

Nahida asked in surprise.

"That's right, even though every member of the Genius Society is extremely outstanding."

"It is still inevitable that some will be killed by people who are stronger and more ruthless than themselves."

Luo Feng said.

"Talents with such minds can actually die."

"This is probably a great pity for the advancement of knowledge."

Lisa murmured.

"Not necessarily; not all knowledge researched by geniuses can lead to progress."

"Some knowledge researched by geniuses can also bring disaster."

"If we use the words of the Grass Archon, these are probably forbidden knowledge."

Luo Feng said, glancing at Nahida.

Sure enough, after hearing Luo Feng mention the words "forbidden knowledge,"

Nahida's spirit was immediately shaken.

"Even so, the fact that a genius of this level can be killed by someone."

"Is in itself enough to make one feel surprised."

Lisa sighed with emotion.

"Even if some scientific researchers possess very brilliant minds."

"Their combat power is not necessarily all that strong."

"Being killed by some ruthless people is not something worth being overly surprised about, right?"

The Doctor murmured a sentence.

However, Luo Feng directly refuted what he had said earlier.

"There are no weaklings in the Genius Society."

"Even without relying on inventions, every single one of them could probably easily destroy a world with mere brute force."

Luo Feng shook his head and said.

The Doctor: "Easily… destroy a world?"

Luo Feng: "Don't underestimate people who can meet an Aeon on their own merits, Doctor."

The Doctor frowned, wanting to continue questioning.

Luo Feng had already stepped in front of a projection where the facial features were unclear.

"Polka Kakamond, 4th seat of the Genius Society."

"This mysterious woman can be considered the most ruthless person in the entire Genius Society."

Luo Feng murmured.

"The most ruthless person?"

Nahida's face revealed a look of doubt.

"That's right! It can be said that the reason why the number of living members in the Genius Society has decreased now."

"Is in large part because of her."

"Quite a few people in the Genius Society have fallen by her hand."

"Legend has it that even the 【Emperor】 Rupert, the 27th seat of the Genius Society, was destroyed by this Polka."

Luo Feng said, raising his hand to tap on Polka Kakamond's projection.

【Polka Kakamond, 4th seat of the Genius Society… many members of the Club have fallen by her hand.】

【There has been no news of her for many years, but I firmly believe she is still alive.】

【Hey, Silent Lord, if you come here… I am Herta, 83rd seat of the Genius Society, I want to meet you. I believe you and I will have many common topics!】

【Kaeya: Oh my, even the voice introduction mentions that she killed many members of the Genius Society. It seems this matter is true.】

【Paimon: Herta actually wants to meet her? This Polka is so dangerous, why does Herta want to meet her?】

【Venti: Perhaps only Herta herself knows that.

Come to think of it, why is this Silent Lord's facial image blurred?】

【Luo Feng: Because she once destroyed her own portraits and photos across the entire universe,

now there is probably no one left who possesses photos or images containing her face.】

【Venti: To be able to destroy one's own portraits on such a large scale,

one couldn't accomplish such a thing without powerful strength and special means.】

【Zhongli: Even a genius like Herta hasn't been able to get a photo with the Silent Lord's face,

perhaps the Silent Lord really has completely destroyed all photos that have her face.】

………………

"Actually killing members of the same club!"

"Why would she do such a thing?"

Nahida frowned and murmured.

"Obviously, even among people in the same organization."

"There will exist all kinds of conflicts."

"Come to think of it, Feng mentioned Emperor Rupert specifically earlier."

"Is this one also an incredible existence like Lady Spider?"

Lisa asked curiously.

"Compared to Lady Spider, the Emperor does indeed have some similarities."

"In terms of birth."

Luo Feng rubbed his chin and said.

"In terms of birth… it seems this Emperor's growth will also be very inspiring… no, it should be said to be very discouraging."

The Lady shook her head and said.

If a person's achievements can inspire others to move forward, that can indeed be considered inspiring.

But if a person's achievements are beyond the reach of others,

then that would probably only make others feel deeply discouraged.

"Even if the Emperor's achievements are beyond reach."

"But at least we need to have the courage to catch up, so that we can progress."

The Doctor said with a serious face.

Nahida nodded in agreement.

The behavior of Siskarn wanting to progress even at the end of her life had already inspired her.

She did not want to lose the motivation to work hard because of discouragement.

Luo Feng smiled and said:

"Siskarn was a spider with a lifespan of only 29 days."

"And Emperor Rupert was initially just a piece of iron without even life."

Nahida: "A piece of iron?"

Luo Feng nodded slightly and said:

"This Rupert is quite an incredible figure."

"Clearly just a computer discarded as trash, yet it miraculously developed self-awareness."

"Then, he relied on this bit of self-awareness to constantly perfect himself."

"Finally, from abandoned trash, he became an existence that caught the attention of the Aeon of Erudition."

【Kaeya: Good heavens, this time it's not only not a human, it's not even an animal!】

【Wriothesley: From mechanical trash to a genius, I really don't know whether to admire it or sigh that humans are inferior to machines.】

【Scaramouche: Heh, that's a bit interesting.】
