"That old-fashioned smart robot guy who should be in an electronics junkyard has been around for too long."
In the system of destiny, time is not equal to absolute power, but for a genius who can continuously accumulate knowledge and improve plans, time is the most terrifying weapon.
Who knows what Laigushi did during the tens of thousands of years he disappeared, or if he had any trump cards up his sleeve?
"Even if we manage to slip through the loopholes in the Ultimate Protocol and infiltrate this place using your unreasonable power, the chances of defeating the Omnic in a head-on confrontation are still slim, unless you can unleash the same power you had against Polka in the simulated universe."
Black Tower calmly analyzed reality.
"Forget about that, it's limited to the simulated universe."
Qiong shrugged regretfully.
If you can use friends to help you in battle, then there's no need for the Black Tower to come in.
"Can the Iron Curtain be prevented from being born?"
"It's hopeless."
Black Tower's answer was crisp and decisive. She waved her hand to bring up more screens, which were filled with wildly jumping streams of code made up of destructive black and red data blocks.
"The furnace of Onfaronis has been racing on the path of destruction for far too long, and the underlying logic of re-creation has been thoroughly and deeply corrupted."
"If I had enough time, I might have been able to turn things around. Unfortunately, there are no ifs, and there is no time. Even if I, Screw, Ruan Mei, and Stephen worked together, we could not have reversed the situation in such a short time."
"The only good news is that the internal situation in Onfaros is still under our... or rather, under your and your little friends' control."
The power to create the spark of rebirth and the decision of when to ignite it rests in the hands of the moth that chases the flame.
"The Iron Tomb's progress bar is currently at 99.99%, just a tiny bit more and the process will be complete."
"Logically speaking, there should be one more eternal return cycle."
Bai E, in the cycle of reincarnation, killed Xi Lian in this cycle and obtained the gaze from the Star God of Memory, enabling him to reset the process once again.
"The most sensible thing to do is to reset the calculation as soon as possible, even if it's just to buy the galaxy a little more buffer time."
"But in this cycle, the twelve factors in the calculation, which are the so-called demigods, encountered a runtime error in the logic of inheriting authority... Was this your doing?"
Although it ends with a question mark, Black Tower's tone is that of a statement.
The program ran more than 30 million times without any problems, but it crashed this time?
Even a fool could guess who did it.
"I moved it accidentally on purpose."
Qiong nodded in agreement.
"and then?"
"Then?"
Black Tower glared at Qiong with annoyance and poked Qiong's forehead with its magic wand.
"Then the cycle was broken, and in the most violent way."
"If you don't create any bugs, the cycle can continue as long as you and that pink dwarf don't personally intervene in the transmission of the flame."
While this approach may not fundamentally solve the problem, it at least buys the galaxy valuable preparation time.
"Even if the cycle is broken, as long as there is no bug in the underlying logic, it can still last for another cycle."
“But now, the simulated order factor, the simulated destruction factor... that is, the laws and death within them, are all going wrong.”
"The problem of simulating the harmonic factor is relatively minor and can barely pass the verification. I'm not sure if the law problem can pass, but death definitely won't pass."
"So, this is the last time creation will take place."
Black Tower emphasized his words slightly.
"Law and death."
Qiong blinked and thought for a moment.
It seems to have been caused by him opening it a little.
Jerry helps Chrysler obtain the Fire of Law in a way that defies logic.
In order to save his sister-in-law and allow the two sisters to leave the underworld, Jerry and the uniqueness of error relentlessly went in and out of the fire of death.
It seems that the effort was too strong, affecting the underlying factors at the system level, causing this constantly repeating program to lose the ability to reload and restart.
This is roughly equivalent to preventing problems with the anchor point.
How much time is left?
Having never considered continuing the cycle of reincarnation, Qiong remained indifferent at this point.
"It depends on how long you, and the people inside Onfaros, can hold out."
The Black Tower was straightforward.
“This eternal return process is completely different from the past. At the same point in time, the current coverage of the Black Tide is far smaller than the average level in the previous tens of thousands of cycles.”
In other words, although Qiong recklessly squandered the last chance for reincarnation, she greatly extended the duration of this reincarnation.
"Give me a rough estimate?"
Qiong was multitasking, communicating with the Black Tower while simultaneously reading the contents of several logs.
"Based on the current situation, it will take about twelve hours for the external systems to function."
After a moment's thought, Black Tower gave a time limit.
"At that time, the Black Tide will engulf the entire Onfaros, devour the twelve factors, and become nourishment for the Iron Tomb to complete the calculation of the project."
The speed and pace of the Kuroshio erosion are much, much slower than in previous cycles, but it is still advancing little by little.
Onfaros's civilization ceiling is locked, preventing it from developing more powerful weapons. Even if it could, they still wouldn't pose a threat to the Black Tide itself.
Most of the pressure from the Black Tide itself falls on Dyna Zeon.
However, Dynazeon's power is not limitless, and the Black Tide continues to advance slowly, eventually destroying the Empire and the world.
"At that time, the Iron Tomb will be able to crown itself and destroy intellect."
As for how to destroy intellect?
There are many ways to do that.
Disrupting interstellar communication, destroying synesthetic beacons, plunging the stars back into the Dark Ages, or even triggering the Third Anti-Organic War—each of these could bring annihilation to the galaxy.
These are all considered minor and mild measures.
The most terrifying thing is that it directly attacks the fundamental physical constants of the universe.
That would be the end of all intelligent civilization!
One of the roles of knowledge in the galactic universe is to anchor the cosmological constant.
"Hey."
Black Tower looked up at the sky, a hint of barely perceptible anticipation in his eyes.
"Where are all your weird toys? Do you have any more hidden away? Hurry up and take them all out."
Black Tower was also somewhat interested in that super mech, but unfortunately now was not the time to study it.
"Nothing."
Qiong shook her head helplessly.
If I had to say, Fruit Warriors could barely be considered a Super type, only their power is a bit weak.
Considering that Fruit Warriors' moves include the Spirit Bomb, we can try it out on the battlefield later.
Maybe... it's time to pull for Pokémon?
This thought caused Qiong's mindset to become somewhat complicated.
On the one hand, reason warned him not to cause any more trouble, in case he drew something even more ridiculous.
On the other hand, the Masked Fool's inherent impulse to pursue extreme chaos and fun is stirring again—the more chaotic the situation, the more fun!
Moreover, the Black Tower's speculation disregarded the Alexis factor.
The antics the other side orchestrated within Onphalos were enough to tip the scales of time.
After using the Anywhere Door to bring Ruan Mei and Luo Sigu Mu to the outside Milky Way universe, Qiong then used the Anywhere Door to send Hai Tu and the space ring containing some of the inventions of Grey Wolf to the Star Qiong Train carriage where Xing is located.
With the Haunted Rabbit and those inventions, Onfaros should be able to hold out for a while.
"Huh, what's this...?"
"What have you found now?"
"I found the encrypted file."
Black Tower raised an eyebrow with interest.
"I want to see what it is that makes the AI so cautious, locking it up layer by layer."
Feeling that time was running out, Black Tower decisively picked up the Black Key Staff and inserted it into the document that was bound by chains and silver locks.
A rosy purple light flowed and rippled, and the lock on the document was partially unlocked.
"The Song of Demié..."
Qiong saw the title of the document, and her eyes flickered slightly.
He quickly skimmed through the information on the first page, and just as he was looking expectantly at the second page...
That's the end of it.
A deep and elegant voice suddenly rang out in the data space.
With administrator privileges, the file that had just been slightly unlocked vanished from the view of Qiong and the Black Tower as if erased by an eraser, its status changing to [Locked and Inaccessible].
Qiong and Heita turned their heads at the same time to look in the direction from which the sound came.
The void, which was originally flowing with a torrent of data, rippled like the surface of water after a stone was thrown in.
An intelligent machine slowly walked out.

"Oh, so you're Lai Gushi?"
Qiong Rao looked at the unremarkable android in front of him with great interest, except for his exceptionally open-mindedness.
"They managed to bypass the ultimate protocol's access barriers and reach the system layer via a spark."
Lai Gushi gracefully placed his right hand on the edge of the deep, hollow hole in his chest, while his left hand was behind his back. He bowed slightly like an ancient nobleman, performing an impeccable gentlemanly bow.
"As expected of you, Lord Qiong."
Lai Gushi praised and expressed his feelings, his voice soothing yet magnetic.
"I'm sorry to have disturbed your enjoyment of browsing the lab log."
"To fully express my apologies, I would be honored if you were to visit my humble abode... so that I may extend my hospitality and offer you some simple hospitality."
Time and space seemed to freeze as Lai Gushi spoke with dramatic intonation.
Like an old-fashioned CRT television with a poor signal, the entire data space began to flicker and distort violently, displaying irregular colored stripes and snowflake-like data blocks.
These bizarre visual noises rapidly swirled and converged, transforming into a surging wave of data that swept towards the dome and the black tower like an overturned tidal wave, engulfing them.
"Honoring as a host?"
Qiong stood still amidst the turbulent flow of data, grinned, and spoke in a familiar tone, as if chatting with an old friend.
"What? Are you planning to invite me to Iron Tomb's birth banquet? Oh my, you're quite polite."
Inside Onpharos, within the scepter, neither he nor the Black Tower could do anything about Lygus, who possessed administrator privileges.
However, in the data world, he can transform into Jerry, and even Gregory can't do anything about it.
A magnificent purple light instantly shone in Black Tower's hand, and energy surged at the tip of the wand, but it suddenly went out the next second.
"Privilege suppression...tsk."
