Star Dome Railway, why are they also simulating!

The fictional historian looked at Ron deeply. There was no disgust or hostility towards Ron in his eyes, only deep helplessness:

"It's hard for you to understand what I'm saying now, because you can only understand this kind of thing when you learn a lesson from it..."

As he spoke, he used a feather pen to draw a few strokes on it, apparently erasing something, and then turned and walked towards the stairs leading to the sky:

"History is not real, it can be erased objectively; let the past not exist, let it only exist in the present, in your mind and mine, and be dressed up by anyone. This is the idea of ​​our fictional historians..."

"I don't ask you to understand this concept now, nor do I expect you to understand what we are facing. If you choose to convert to the [mysterious] myth and blur this history at this moment, this is the best choice... but it doesn't matter if you don't do this."

He walked quickly up the stairs, climbing up bit by bit on the spiral staircase that rose straight up into the sea of ​​stars and pierced into the darkness. His figure gradually became smaller and moved away from Ron.

His voice came faintly from the sky:

"I just hope you can understand that I have no ill will towards you. I am really trying to help you... And, remember that!"

His voice became noticeably louder, and he turned around on the tall spiral staircase and glanced at Ron:

"All the haze and illusions you see outside the fictional world constructed by the code, all the mysteries that have been erased from reality and become chaotic, are all my great masterpieces - I am not *simulated*!"

His voice echoed throughout the library.

He turned his head and walked down the stairs into the darkness of the misty sea of ​​stars. Ron saw that the entire sea of ​​stars was surging with misty undercurrents at this moment, and a rosy mist was precipitated above the dome of the library and gradually covered the entire library.

Standing in this rosy mist, Ron could smell a strange, illusory fragrance.

He felt his perception gradually becoming confused, his consciousness unable to think because of the shrouded fog, a torrent of metaphors penetrated his body, and a vague indescribable feeling emerged from his heart.

He seemed to be coming into contact with the biggest mystery in the entire sea of ​​stars, and seemed to be trying to understand the fog that shrouded the sea of ​​stars.

The layers of fog seemed to be peeling away for Ron, revealing the indescribable truth at the core.

But the next moment, the world before his eyes suddenly changed——

A misty sea of ​​stars? A rosy mist? A fog that shrouds our consciousness?

All the confusion ended at this moment. Ron opened his eyes and found that there was no library surrounded by the sea of ​​stars, nor was there the rosy mist or fog that enveloped his consciousness.

He was standing on the simulated universe recording device, and what he could smell was the fresh scent brought by the frequent ventilation in the space station. Next to him was the simple and exquisite space station of the Black Tower. Everything was so clear, without a single speck of dust covered with a misty black veil.

At the side, Black Tower, who had forcibly shut down the simulated universe, was standing with his hands on his hips, looking at him seriously.

..........................................................

PS: I had some things to do at the beginning of the month, so I went out to have dinner with friends. When I came back, I delayed it until very late again. I was unable to finish the update before 12 o'clock on the 3rd, so I simply left it until now and resumed the previous punctual update.

Just pretend that I didn’t update yesterday. I owe everyone 4,000 words a day. Counting my previous debts, I now owe 7,000 words.

There hasn't been anything else realistic going on in the last few days, so I'm trying my best to pay off my debts.

Chapter 4 - Gift from the Black Tower (5k)

"You failed to attract the Star God."

Heita looked at Ron with his hands on his hips, his expression was calm and lazy:

"You haven't paid your price. Do you think I should throw you out of the space station? Or should I deprive you of your human rights now and throw you into the World Species Laboratory for adoption, labeled as 'Hairless Monkey on Yalilo-VI'?"

Ron couldn't help but reveal a helpless smile - he had clearly already attracted the Star God, and the miracles created by him were about to appear because of [Mystery] Myth and [Wisdom] Knowledgeable Lord.

It has to be said that the virtual personalities of the star gods in the simulated universe do have a certain influence on them. If these two star gods were in reality, it would be impossible for them to appear so quickly, or even want to appear in front of Ron in their true form.

But after modifying their virtual personalities to maximize their social tendencies, they will be more active in achieving their goals...

But Ron never expected that it would be so easy to attract the Star God in the simulated universe, and his deal with the Black Tower was also easy, but when it was about to be completed, it was inexplicably broken by a sudden fictional historian -

The fictional historian's final writings and drawings on the book before his departure were obviously not just casual touches, but a real revision of history, and it is obvious what this history is.

He modified the history of Ron attracting the Star God in the simulated universe, so after the Black Tower closed the simulated universe, it said that Ron did not attract the Star God, and believed that he failed to pay the price just agreed upon.

Looking at the lazy and calm puppet in front of him, with no expression on his face, Ron sighed helplessly:

"If possible, I don't want either of these two endings..."

As he spoke, he pointed tentatively at the simulated universe input terminal next to him:

"How about...we try it again?"

"Since you have prayed sincerely, I will be merciful and let you do it again - do you think I would say that?"

Heita raised his head and put one hand on his waist:

"I'm not interested in watching you do it again in the simulated universe..." She hesitated for a moment, and seemed to swallow the words that were about to come out:

"... to engage in a childish escapade, which is no fun."

She said this, hesitated for a moment again, and added:

"...But I suddenly have some interest in your planet. I will ask Estelle to pack the things you want for you. Just consider it as my small help to you——"

"I will visit your planet in a while. I hope you can rely on my assistance to complete your research."

She gestured "please" toward the door:

"Well, get out of here, and go back to where you came from before I change my mind."

A mysterious force suddenly emerged, gently pushing Ron and Xing out of the office, and then the door of the office closed in an instant. The steel door was tightly closed at this moment, which shows how much Black Tower does not want to contact anyone now.

The image on the screen faded, and new words appeared on it:

[Heita kicked you and Xing out of her office, but she didn't hold you accountable.]

[For some reason, she has become interested in Yalilo-VI, agreed to help you, and will go to Yalilo-VI after a certain period of time... in the body of a doll. ]

[You keenly discovered that the changes in the black tower were traceable, even to the point where she didn't even try to hide it——]

[She knew that the fictional historian had been here, and she knew that the fictional historian had revised history.]

[For some reason, she did not bring this matter to the table. She was not even angry about the fictional historian invading her most important simulated universe project, and she did not hold the fictional historian accountable.]

[Perhaps... they have reached some deal in secret that you are not aware of, or for some reason Black Tower is afraid to take action and chooses to keep quiet? ]

【You don’t know this.】

Looking at the words on the light screen, Ron couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

The appearance of the fictional historian was indeed beyond his expectations, and it slightly disrupted his plans for a while.

However, the final result did not change. Black Tower still gave him the information and research equipment he needed, but did not change the outcome of the matter.

Ron can still rely on these data and research equipment to promote one technological revolution after another on Yalilo-VI as he had expected, quickly push the entire Yalilo-VI into the interstellar society, shift all conflicts to the development of the universe, use greater interests to suppress Beloberg's conflicts, and slowly digest them.

......But, does Ron really dare to do this now?

Ron clicked on the light screen in front of him to bring up the previous scene, scrolled forward on the progress bar, and watched it carefully several times at a low speed, frowning tightly.

Not only did the appearance of this fictional historian exceed Ron's expectations, but even the attitude of this fictional historian was difficult for Ron to understand.

He was too serious and too friendly.

Although he reprimanded Ron as soon as he appeared and was very angry about Ron's behavior, no matter how Ron looked at the footage, he could not see any malicious intent from this fictional historian.

He seemed to...really have good intentions, which is why he tried again and again to tamper with the history of Ron's research into those miracles, and again and again to prevent Ron from following the history of Yalilo-VI, discovering the truth of history, and obtaining more advanced and clear technology in history.

But...why can this be an act of goodwill?

You know, if Yalilo-VI doesn't go all out to develop technology and make its civilization gradually stronger, the future outcome will obviously be destruction by the remnants of the frozen legions and withering on this frozen planet where the ice and snow have not yet melted.

Unless... if Ron's behavior is allowed to continue, triggering miracles again and again, it will lead to more serious disasters and put the entire planet in a more dangerous situation. Even with those advanced technologies, it will be absolutely powerless to resist, and will end up in a more tragic ending than being destroyed by the remnants of the Legion.

Ron frowned and continued to scroll up and down the light screen, looking at the latest simulation entries and carefully sorting out the current situation.

Heita's behavior was also extremely strange... She must have discovered this fictional historian, there is no doubt about it.

Not to mention that the simulated universe itself is Black Tower's territory, and it is also a project jointly promoted by four geniuses in the Genius Club. Just given Black Tower's identity and ability as the Envoy of [Intelligence], it is impossible for a fictional historian to sneak into the simulated universe to modify history without discovering his existence.

[Mystery] Misconception and [Wisdom] Boshizun have been in opposition for such a long time without any major turmoil. It is obvious that these two star gods are equally powerful, and there will definitely not be any essential huge differences in the abilities of their messengers. It is impossible that the Black Tower will not discover the existence of this fictional historian.

Moreover, in the last scene on the light screen, Ron was clearly about to be invaded by the power of the [Mysterious] Mystery, lose his consciousness, and have his memory disrupted by the rosy mist.

It couldn't be a coincidence that the Black Tower immediately closed the simulated universe and kicked Ron out at that time.

But she pretended not to know that she had been invaded by the fictional historian, and even found an excuse to agree to the deal with Ron...

According to Heita's temper, she would never do such a thing unless there would be a huge price to pay for not doing so. She would have already fought with the fictional historian who dared to stop her from exploring the secrets of the Star God.

This guy won't wait until the next day to take revenge, there's no way he can hold back... There must be something wrong here.

Ron briefly reviewed the current situation, but it was difficult for him to draw a conclusion for a moment, knowing why the fictional historian and the Black Tower behaved so strangely.

He could only suppress the doubts in his heart and click on the light screen to let the simulation continue, to see if the next simulation could answer his doubts.

The words on the light screen faded, and new words appeared on it:

[You were kicked out of the Black Tower office, but your mood has obviously improved a lot——]

[Because you know that although Black Tower said that she was only investing in you out of interest, she actually agreed to the deal between you.]

[Although this transaction did not go ahead on the surface, it is no longer important to you. ]

[After receiving a private message from Black Tower, Esta quickly arranged for the staff to prepare the scientific research assistance that Black Tower would give you.]

[By the way, out of courtesy, I paid for you to buy a large scientific research starship on [Universe Products] and gave it to you as a gift to support your scientific research.]

[This starship is a large research ship customized by the Interstellar Peace Company when it was assisting the Polyscience Society. There were only a few of them originally, but an unnamed executive forcibly transferred one of them and put it up for auction on [Universe Products]. The price is 5 million credit points, which is several hundred million credit points more expensive than the latest model of Star Destroyer auctioned at the same auction.]

[Faced with so many gifts, your heart is filled with passion, and you can't help but think about how advanced a civilization you can build in the future with these gifts...]

[But a sense of trance emerged in front of your eyes, and a familiar voice suddenly sounded in your ears. ]

[The words of the fictional historian echoed in your mind. You suddenly remembered his warning, and a trace of fear that was bound to happen suddenly arose in your heart.]

[The well-intentioned warning from this fictional historian and the vagueness of the black tower made you vaguely sense that something was wrong.]

[Why do they behave like this? What kind of future will the opportunities you have discovered lead to? ]

[What should we do to move towards the right future? ]

[Should I accept this gift and devote myself to scientific research, or should I listen to the warnings of fictional historians and give up everything that is within my reach?]

[This will greatly affect everything that happens next... You must make a careful decision for this.]

The text on the light screen faded, and a deep red option appeared on it:

[1. Accept the gift from the Black Tower.]

If we allow others to manipulate Yarilo-VI and perform a drama according to a predetermined script, even if it survives in the end, what dignity of civilization can we talk about?

You don’t know where Beloberg’s future is heading. It can go towards destruction or revival, but it should never be in the hands of others.

You can't let go of this opportunity to determine your future.

You decide to accept the gift from the Black Tower and strive to complete all your research plans, and use the miracles you have researched to upgrade Beloberg as quickly as possible across the entire Yalilo-VI, allowing civilization to completely ascend to a new era. 】

[2. Give up the gift from the Black Tower.

You know that the behavior of the fictional historian and the Black Tower is not normal, and they must be hiding some truth with great influence.

Faced with this danger that could silence the two emissaries and make them unwilling to reveal everything to you, you have already begun to think of retreating.

It's not that you are afraid of it, but you know that sometimes you should retreat bravely and not hold on and get yourself hurt.

Belloberg is far from ready to face the danger of silencing the Herald...

Now that there is no threat from the star core on Yalilo-VI, there is a period of safety for the time being. You may be able to find new ways to survive in this danger.

You decide to give up the gift from the Black Tower and try to solve all the problems facing Beloberg without triggering the miracle research. 】

Looking at the deep red option on the light screen, Ron's frown could not be relaxed at all.

"Deep red... another legendary option?"

Ron muttered to himself. After so many simulations, he probably had a basic idea of ​​what the legendary options were.

Most of the legendary options are related to Star Gods, and the weakest are at least related to the Messenger. All of them are exceptional options, enough to bring about huge changes in the subsequent development of this simulation.

The reason why the Black Tower and the fictional historian reacted in this way might be related to a Star God. If they choose option one, they might face a crisis at the level of an Envoy or even a Star God.

but......

Ron rubbed his temple with a headache and clicked option number one.

There was no way he would choose option number two - to hand over the future of Yalilo-VI to someone else, to let someone like Sambo play with it at will and use it as a stage in his script, and there would be no way that Beloberg could reach the dawn.

Even if Yalilo-VI does not eventually turn into burning ashes at the hands of the remnants of the Legion, it will surely slide into the abyss due to other dangers.
