The firelight dispelled the unknown fog, melting a corner of the iceberg that she found unfathomable.
Immersed in her own world, Ruan Mei was surrounded by countless fluorescent molecules that swirled around her arms like plum blossom petals. The virtual gene bank materialized into a swirling current, which twisted into a double helix of light as she gently raised her wrist.
Gene chain unwinding, life organization reconstruction, cell matrix reconstruction, ecological niche optimization...
Without needing to experiment, Ruan Mei had a strange intuition that if the design proceeded in this direction, the breeding envoy could last for 40 seconds, 45 seconds, 50 seconds...
Don't underestimate that one second; it's the most primal and purest mission—reproduction!
Every extra second meant she had ventured further into areas she didn't understand.
"what's the situation?"
Ruan Mei's unexpected action caught Hai Tu's attention. She then turned to look at the other three people who seemed to be frozen in place, and looked down at the cake in her hand.
"Is this a buff that prevents talking and moving? Or is it triggering some hidden quest for everyone?"
With these thoughts in mind, Haitu quickly walked to Qiong's side, grabbed Qiong's arm, and gently shook it:
"Qiong, are you alright? Wake up! Hey, hey, hey, one, two, three, hey, hey, hey, three, two, one?"
The familiar yet jarring lines, delivered with a discordant tone, jolted Qiong from her 'sudden realization,' unrelated to the shouts and shaking of the Haunted Rabbit; it was simply the end of the cake effect.
"I'm fine, just a little tipsy, and I suddenly have an urge to do advanced math problems."
Qiong rubbed his temples.
"What?"
The horrified rabbit's eyes widened, its expression one of horror.
"No, you're in this state, and you're saying you're fine?"
Who in their right mind would suddenly want to do advanced math problems?
Not to mention Sora!
"for you."
After hesitating for two seconds, Haitu immediately went to the Black Tower Space Station network and used a web crawler to grab several sets of exam questions, which he then projected onto Qiong's screen.
"Give it a try?"
"Thank you, benefactor. I no longer have those worldly impulses."
After glancing at the scroll covered with dense symbols, Qiong mercilessly clasped his hands together.
"So, the special effect of this thing is to make people want to do advanced math problems?"
Haitu glanced at the cake in her hand, tilted her head, and joked.
"In that case, I'll definitely stuff Xing to death."
Qiong casually picked up a pastry from the delicate round plate on the edge of the table in front of Ruan Mei.
"The effect is roughly a 50% increase in Inspiration and Wisdom attributes, followed by a burst state that lasts for a certain period of time."
"So, did those three completely fail in their intuitive judgment? Did their sanity drop to zero and they lose their minds?"
Haitu looked at the pastries that Qiong handed over and wanted to refuse, but Brownie thought they looked good and wanted to try them.
Helpless, a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face, but it was gone in an instant. In the end, she opened her lips and took a small bite on the spot where Qiong had left her bite mark.
Brownie lent him almost half her body for his use. How could he refuse such a small request from the person he liked?
Besides, he and Qiong are good brothers and teachers, so it's not unreasonable for him to eat a piece of cake, right?
Can brotherhood and teacher-student relationships deteriorate?
"No, I guess he was just too excited."
"A burst of inspiration? No wonder..."
As she savored the delicate sweetness and plum blossom flavor intertwined on her tongue, Miss Hatbite could fully appreciate the deliciousness of the food. But then, as if suddenly remembering something, she raised an eyebrow.
"Wait, 50%?"
"Hmm, 50%."
Qiong nodded in confirmation.
The effect of the book cake is a fixed percentage, meaning that the effect varies from person to person.
Qiong was definitely no match for the geniuses, which is why he was the first to wake up after eating the book cake.
If his inspiration and wisdom are 100, and the geniuses are 1000, then after the amplification explosion, it becomes 300 and 3000. Black Tower, Ruan Mei, and Screw Gum are still immersed in the leap of thought and the burst of inspiration.
Considering the cost, this thing is extremely poor value for money for ordinary people, but if you give it to a genius, then...
No wonder there are only six pieces.
"Incredible!"
With a lingering resonance in his voice, almost devoid of any mechanical quality, Screw Gumm's eyes regained their elegant radiance.
"My chemical neurotransmitter pathways are perfectly normal. This cake can actually act directly on the mental level, triggering a cognitive matrix resonance, and even I, a machine, can enter a state of flowing thoughts."
"If we analyze its underlying principles and mechanisms, we might be able to rewrite the cornerstone of the theory of the evolution of the mind of intelligent machines."
"Cognitive catalysis? A burst of inspiration... how is that done?"
Ruan Mei's fingertips traced the gene regulation formula suspended in the void. The life blueprints that had once grown wildly in her mind gathered in her palm like fireflies returning to their nests, condensing into a double helix of light.
Her delicate hands gently compressed and stored away.
She is now confident that the reproduction order will allow the clones to exist for more than three minutes. If she adds the data obtained from testing the simulated universe, it might actually be possible...
"This thing is truly amazing!"
The giant black tower doll stood up abruptly.
There are no stimulants to enhance inspiration in scientific research. Although some banned substances with severe side effects may have a similar effect, they are not applicable to geniuses.
"You always manage to come up with something new, you're quite the expert~ Qiong, hurry up and make me some more!"
Black Tower grabbed Dome's arm and urged him on.
It was just a few minutes of burst of inspiration. After the effect ended, some of the brilliant ideas disappeared, but a considerable amount remained. Those few minutes saved her several months, or even more than a year!
A genius's time is incredibly precious!
"Nothing."
"Please, make it for me, Dad!"
The Black Tower pleaded.
"No, that's really not true. All items in the synthesizer are truly random. Even if you put in the exact same raw materials, it won't produce the same thing."
Qiong shrugged: "Each one is a unique item."
"Tsk."
Black Tower's expression changed instantly, becoming even more excited.
Judging from the cake alone, this ugly-looking all-purpose synthesizer has, to some extent, exceeded her comprehension.
"However, a total of six were produced, and now we still have two left over."
Qiong pointed to the cake in Haitu's hand with the hand wearing the space ring.
As soon as the words were spoken, Hei Ta, Ruan Mei, and Luo Sigumu's gazes almost simultaneously sharpened, locking onto the object.
It would be a complete waste to give something with such miraculous effects to ordinary people!
Even someone as aloof as Ruan Mei would have such thoughts!
"How to say?"
The Haunted Rabbit, being stared at by the three, shrugged and stood beside Qiong.
This cake originally belonged to Qiong, but now all three geniuses want it.
"We're really not making the most of what we eat."
To be honest, aside from experiencing the thrill of solving calculus problems correctly, Qiong, as the 'Brownie', gained a lot in terms of hacking knowledge, but it certainly couldn't compare to the gains of geniuses.
"This piece, which belongs to Brownie, is for you to study."
Qiong placed the book cake in Haitu's hand on the table.
"Black Tower, is it alright to give her the Punk Lord spirit?"
"Take it."
Black Tower waved his hand dismissively.
That was just an ordinary oddity, with only a little collection value and no research value whatsoever. In her opinion, it was far less valuable than a piece of cake!
"Screw, why don't you teach her about hacking?"
Through the teaching of Silver Wolf, and then through the teaching of geniuses, Little Ha Rabbit, who possesses the same talent as Silver Wolf, can grow up in the shortest possible time.
"Absolutely: Miss Brownie can contact me if she has any questions."
"As for Ruan Mei... consider it as Ting Yun's medical expenses."
"can."
Ruan Mei nodded slowly.
As a result, everyone felt they had gained something, a true win-win situation.
Next, the three geniuses even postponed their discussion on simulating a global locust plague and began researching the universal synthesis machine together.
However, as the research progressed, the three geniuses fell into a slump.
how to say?
It's like the Trisolaran fleet was on its way to Earth, and the Sophon, with its overwhelming technology, was observing Earth when suddenly a cultivator appeared and chopped the Sophon down with a single sword!
Then, the Trisolaran spoke with a suppressed sorrow:
"Physics no longer exists."
PS:
Chapter 458 Giving the geniuses a little shock from the Wolf King.
"What's going on?"
The effect of the candy changing size disappears, and the large black tower doll reverts to the standard small black tower.
As a brilliant and insightful genius, Lady Black Tower was a prophet who had foreseen this outcome long ago.
Therefore, the clothes she had the little black towers deliver to the big black tower doll were specially made, with the function of automatically adjusting body shape.
Eliminating the possibility of sudden physical degeneration causing Little Black Tower to be exposed is not important.
Hei Ta's bony fingers held a spicy strip.
This thing is a snack made from the most inert metal currently available in the laboratory. It is so hard that even aqua regia cannot dissolve it on Earth. It is also made from ordinary food from the space station sent by the staff.
She flicked her finger at the synthesizer's edge, her face full of incomprehension.
"I personally adjusted and designed the analyzer, but it can't even detect its algorithm's fundamental frequency. This thing doesn't even seem to obey the law of conservation of energy?"
It doesn't refer to synthesis. This process still 'seems' to follow the law of conservation of energy. The stronger the yang energy involved in the synthesis, the stronger the snack's effect.
Instead, the synthesizer's operation seems to disregard the law of conservation of energy. Normally, the machine needs to absorb the energy of destiny to drive it, but Qiong's method of "if you don't synthesize, I'll dismantle you" actually works!
That's absolutely outrageous!
"The mass-energy conversion process cannot be detected! There is no sigma baryon involved... It may even exceed the Black Tower sequence."
That's what a genius is.
The theorems used in the exchange are all named after themselves.
Black Tower inserted the scanning probe into the universal synthesizer, feeling both surprised and bewildered.
The dozens of models she hypothesized all reported errors during verification!
Failure is very valuable to geniuses. Just like every time Black Tower hears the news of Ruan Mei's experiment failing, he rushes over to congratulate her!
