"What has Leon been doing recently?"
Herta really hadn't paid much attention to Leon's whereabouts; she wasn't that much of a simp.
Hmph, she was very busy.
She had no ti for soone who didn't even send a single ssage on normal days.
He said to contact him if she had issues, but after saying that, there wasn't a peep.
If there's nothing wrong, couldn't you send so "Good morning" or "Good night" or chat about random things?
What, would she not reply?
"You an Mr. Leon."
Asta let out an "Oh," her reaction showing she clearly knew.
Herta felt she should know too, otherwise she wouldn't have asked her.
This little girl surfs the web the hardest.
Once Leon does sothing, she's probably the first in the entire Space Station to know.
"Recently?"
Asta tapped her index finger on her chin, recalling.
"Mr. Leon made a movie recently."
"It's quite popular. Although he didn't show his face, I still recognized Mr. Leon at a glance."
Asta said with a smile.
"Rather, he's the only Galaxy Ranger whose tracks can still be found nowadays."
"Movie?" Herta took a sip of black tea.
"What movie?"
This sentence was asked by Ruan i.
"It's called 'Rise of the Black Fla Knight'."
"It tells the history of Penacony, plus the story of a girl born as a weapon of war against the 'Swarm' finding redemption."
From this answer, one could see this damn kid Asta had really watched it.
"'Swarm'?"
Ruan i caught the key point, murmuring in a voice only she could hear.
"So that's it..."
As expected, is it related to Leon? She thought.
See, she said this Heavenly General was either doing sothing big or on the way to do sothing big.
"I understand, thank you."
"What do you understand? You understand?"
Herta spoke in a tone of "What kind of spell are you under," wanting to know what she actually ca for this ti.
"In the end, why do you suddenly care about him?"
Seriously sis, spending so much effort just to ask this?
Although she long knew Ruan i had this indifferent personality, Herta still wanted to say sothing.
Asking about Leon's current situation, but not asking about herself, whom she has known for many years.
Is that not a bit inappropriate?
At the very least, ntion the Simulated Universe; Herta would actually be happy to see her bring it up.
That represents she cares about work.
What the hell is Leon?
Is your relationship with him that good? It seems not even half as familiar as hers with him, right?
The relationship between Leon and Ruan i could be called strangers who t once, no problem.
Yet today she specifically ca to ask about matters concerning him; there must be sothing fishy in this.
"Send his contact information."
Ruan i thought of sothing and asked Herta for sothing before hanging up.
"? Are you serious?"
Herta felt her partner might have taken the wrong dicine today.
First asking about Leon's recent days, now asking her for his contact info.
Has Ruan i gone mad from repression?
"What do you want his contact info for?"
Herta felt sothing was wrong and asked warily.
"There are so matters."
Ruan i spoke calmly, giving a one-sided answer.
"If there are matters, I can convey them for you."
This was obviously not what Herta wanted to hear.
Ruan i remained silent, seeming unprepared to answer.
She was thinking about whether to hang up directly and find Leon's contact info elsewhere.
But no matter what, anything related to Leon was locked down.
The Corporation didn't release it, setting it as top secret.
The Xianzhou Alliance would never let related things leak out even a bit.
Going through Herta was indeed the fastest channel right now, and the only one Ruan i could access.
"My experint requires his assistance."
Ruan i thought about it and didn't embellish much.
This was the truth, although initially she just thought to inquire.
But after confirming it was Leon's doing, she probably wouldn't be able to resist contacting him to chat later.
"What experint?"
"Herta, this is my subject."
Ruan i spoke faintly, not informing her.
Just like the Galaxy Rangers.
Although the Genius Society is a sheet of loose sand, there is an unwritten rule among mbers.
That is, never interfere with other people's subjects.
One sentence killed the match.
Thesis: How to make Herta obediently hand over the contact info of the man she fancies with one sentence.
"I'll give it to you."
Before Herta could speak, "Herta" directly agreed.
"Ruan i, I look forward to it, look forward to your subject dragging into it as well."
Seeming to have so feelings about Ruan i standing on her side when she announced to the geniuses earlier, "Herta" spoke to the other self's communication device.
The communication couldn't see the appearance, only hear the voice.
But the two's vocal cords were completely identical.
Logically, Ruan i shouldn't be able to distinguish which Herta said this.
But she surprisingly could distinguish.
Because Herta's sharpness is never concealed; confident, proud, but not conceited.
While "Herta" has experienced too many things.
Knowing too much from "Nous", causing the sharp edges to be smoothed out a lot.
Not that her personality changed, just that she is much steadier compared to before.
"Thank you."
Ruan i had no emotional fluctuation.
She hasn't experienced the things "Herta" spoke of, so expecting her to have emotions is naturally impossible.
After getting the answer she wanted, Ruan i hung up imdiately.
"Rember to give it to her."
"Herta" also lifted her cup and took a sip of tea, saying to the other self.
"? Wasn't it you who agreed?"
She would definitely give it to Herta, but she still wanted to say: Why must I, Lu Xun, pay the debt owed by you, Zhou Shuren?
"My own account is not in the service area."
"Herta" thought of sothing and said, "Mm, could borrow Asta's though."
How to put it, she is similar to those Golden Progeny.
All exist in this world relying on the person Leon.
"It is my honor, Ms. 'Herta'."
Asta heard this, with a face of considerable willingness, imdiately offering up her Jade Abacus with both hands.
"Hey, Asta, I am Herta!"
Herta smashed the cup bottom onto the table, glaring at her.
"Uh..."
Hearing this, Asta looked awkward.
Sowhat in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.
Both of these are Ms. Herta, even those puppets are Ms. Herta to her.
They are the idols she admires, peerless geniuses.
"Ah, right, does Ms. Herta want to watch the movie Mr. Leon starred in?"
Asta tried her best to change the subject.
"Not watching."
Usually not a greeting, a guy who tells her nothing.
Who cares about him, who cares about him.
"Let's watch it."
But the other self clearly held a different attitude.
Two Hertas spoke in unison, but gave completely different answers.
Asta was sweating a bit.
Thinking it over, she decided to stick to Herta's previous declaration.
"Yes, obeying your command."
That is, when opinions differ, listen to "Herta".
"I am Herta!"
Herta looked at the other self and said coldly.
If she hadn't indeed said before that "Herta's" opinion would be the standard, she almost couldn't hold back from blurting out "Asta, you will regret this."
"At least until you win against , you aren't."
"Herta" looked directly at her with a bit of playfulness in her eyes.
"Don't be smug, there will be such a day sooner or later."
Herta crossed her arms, her brows showing so impatience.
When the two decided to coexist, they were destined to distinguish a primary and secondary.
Whose words carry weight is a very important question.
Said before, Herta has always been proud.
She won't allow another self to step on her head, even if this self is the real self.
The two agreed to decide the winner by intellect.
Among geniuses, this is the most convincing way.
Herta was full of confidence; Herta was hard to conceal her elegance; Herta showed full decadence.
Herta was stunned and speechless; Herta went off-air in humiliation.
This was her series of ntal journeys, and the final result of who is primary and who is secondary between the two.
Herta originally thought that even if she lost to anyone, she couldn't possibly lose to herself.
But she was wrong, and lost utterly.
What the "Perfect Scholar" relies on behind her back is "Nous".
The geniuses wandering the stars are just insignificant neurons to Him.
Creation, how can it defeat the Creator itself?
Herta indeed lost; she and the other self are not on the sa level at all.
The gap between the two is hard to describe in words.
Many questions she only had concepts of, the other self could give accurate answers to.
Questions worth a genius studying for a lifeti, she could give corresponding solution hypotheses for all of them.
That mont, Herta realized.
Apart from Zandar and Kakamond...
The self before her eyes might be the person closest to "Nous" in the current galaxy.
In the self-competition between the two, Herta couldn't say a word.
Finally, she naturally fulfilled the promise.
Admitted in public that the other self is the real Herta, and everything takes her as the standard.
What she says is Herta's aning.
And Herta herself was stepped on the head by her own counterfeit (gritting teeth).
Beca an existence only one level higher than the puppets she made.
Thinking of almost sitting at the sa table as puppets, Herta's sky collapsed.
Damn it, just a re "Perfect Scholar"!
What a joke, how could she lose to a guy defined by "Nous"?
Thirty years east, thirty years west!
The humiliation received from herself, Herta will claim it back from herself sooner or later!
Now endure for the ti being, just waiting for the ti to be ripe!
"Heave-ho, done!"
Asta set up a projector, directly playing "Rise of the Black Fla Knight" in the void.
"Mr. Leon's scenes are very few, just a tiny bit of fragnts."
Finished speaking, the images of "Rise of the Black Fla Knight" appeared before the two Hertas.
"Oh? Glamoth?"
"Herta" watched the story playing in the film, thoughtful about the war weapon against the Swarm.
"Is this your path, Ruan i..."
The budget-heavy images reflected in her pupils, she muttered to herself.
"Adapted from real history?"
Where is the reality, she asked?
Herta didn't care about that much; she just wanted to see what the hell Leon was doing.
No Man's Land, Research Institute.
Sa as them, Ruan i was also watching this film at this mont.
The mont Firefly's image just appeared, the larva in the cultivation pod suddenly beca restless.
It constantly ramd its head against the glass of the cultivation pod, making bang-bang sounds!
As if seduced by sothing, unable to wait to break out of the shell.
"This is truly rare."
Ruan i looked at the larva's reaction, feeling quite novel.
"The index that has been silent directly rose to complete form."
Under Ruan i's intentional control.
According to the original estimate, this larva would only have such vitality when it grew into a complete form and was released from the cage by her.
But now, everything was broken, contrary to normal behavior.
"This situation is simply like sothing has hooked the 'Propagation' instinct in the genes."
Regarding the larva's near-violent charging, Ruan i just analyzed as usual.
Seeming completely unconcerned that it might hurt her, this weak scientist, after rushing out.
Based on Ruan i's research on "The Propagation".
This intense reaction of the larva should be called an obsession desiring to return to the swarm and pledge allegiance.
But there is no other Propagation bug nearby; where does this swarm call reaction co from?
To trigger this kind of reaction,
At the very least, it must be a King Swarm acting as an "Emanator".
Ruan i pondered for a mont, then cast her gaze again at the film just playing.
Is the problem here?
It was after she played this film that the larva started to get irritable.
Before, it was the usual silence.
"Her?"
Ruan i looked at the Glamoth Iron Cavalry in the play, then glanced at the larva in the cultivation pod.
Felt she seed to have found the answer.
"Just this kind of one-sided contact can cause such a big reaction?"
Ruan i muttered to herself, feeling sowhat incredible.
After all, according to her research findings, to cause a collective reaction of the insect swarm.
Even if it's a King Swarm, the person must be present more or less.
When separated by a large distance, if a King Swarm wants to call the insects wandering outside to return to the swarm.
Not only must a great price be paid, but one must also bear the risk of causing a big commotion and being discovered.
Then the risk of major factions starting a crusade against oneself.
And Ruan i, apart from Leon's movie.
She hasn't heard anything related to "The Propagation" in the outside world.
"Mm..."
Ruan i looked at Firefly in the play, and fell into deep thought.
Firefly herself didn't appear directly; just relying on the image, this kind of propagation useless except for the picture.
Could cause such a big reaction in the larva.
Interesting, looks like she has to ask to get to the bottom of it.
Ruan i thought this way, summoning the system operation panel.
After a burst of tapping, the larva in the cultivation pod underwent a violent reaction completely different from just now.
It whined painfully, limbs struggling constantly.
The nutrient fluid in the cultivation pod seed to beco that bottomless ocean, and the larva beca a person falling into the ocean, struggling for a while and then drowning.
In a mont, the larva completely stopped breathing.
And its body seed to be directly corroded.
Evaporated from the world, no trace to be seen.
As its creator, the creature's life and death naturally depend only on Ruan i's single thought.
This 'cat' already has the root of trouble; it can die.
Making a decision with a single thought.
After doing everything, she dialed the contact number she got from Herta.
