The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

"Haha, you are too modest. Although we are nothing to Lord Black Tower, we are all brothers who fought together."

"Moreover, you are now the Dragon Lord, and as a member of the Black Tower Space Station, it is only natural that I should come out to greet you."

The other guards nodded in agreement. In the last situation, if it weren't for Bai Zhi, even with the Starry Sky Train coming to the rescue, they would have suffered heavy casualties.

"We heard from Station Master Estella that you and the person next to you are here to visit Lord Black Tower and several other geniuses, right?"

The security supervisor asked warmly.

“That’s right, we’re here to find Black Tower and a few other geniuses.” Bai Zhi nodded.

"Leave this to us. Our security department knows the location of the two geniuses besides Lord Black Tower because we are responsible for protecting the space station. We'll take you there now."

Upon hearing this, the security supervisor immediately patted his chest and gave a guarantee.

After being rescued last time, they had been trying to find a way to repay Bai Zhi's kindness, but they never had the chance.

They even contacted Xianzhou and sent them the video of Baizhi's battle on the space station, praising Baizhi's tremendous help.

Later, they wanted to ask Bai Zhi's address so they could send her some gifts to express their gratitude.

But Xianzhou always gave vague answers, and finally said it was a confidential matter.

Then, after some time, they saw the news of Bai Zhi being crowned Dragon Lord on the Star Headlines.

Bai Zhi is now a Dragon Lord. Although they can't contribute much in terms of strength and resources, they can still help her by guiding her and repaying her life-saving grace in a small way.

"Shouldn't we report this to Station Master Estáe and the Black Tower?"

"Don't worry, Station Master Estella is aware of this matter, so there's no need to report it again."

"Then I'll trouble you, Supervisor."

"Oh, no trouble at all. It's our insignificant abilities that make us feel guilty for not being able to help you more."

The security supervisor led the way from the side, saying with a sigh.

"Hehe, it's alright. I think seeing that the supervisor and everyone else are alive and well is enough to make my initial actions worthwhile."

The security supervisor didn't speak, but nodded slightly, thinking to himself: No wonder Bai Zhi was able to become the Dragon Lord in such a short time.

Look at their manners! They're already at the top of their class, yet they're still so kind and approachable to ordinary people like us.

If it were anyone else, they'd be strutting around like crazy.

There's definitely a reason for their success.

After walking for a while, the security supervisor pointed to a flashing silver-white automatic door and said, "According to our surveillance footage, Lord Black Tower and two other geniuses should be discussing matters inside."

“You can press the button next to the door to submit your application, and then there’s nothing we can do to interfere.”

"It's alright, thank you for your help on this journey."

"It's no trouble at all, just don't think we're useless."

The security supervisor bowed slightly, then led his guards downstairs.

Then, Bai Zhi walked to the door and was about to press the button when the door opened by itself.

"Come in, we've been waiting for you for a long time."

It was the voice of the Black Tower.

At the same time, a doll, a robot, and a tall woman with a serene demeanor and a remarkably imposing face came into view.

"Don't just stand there, come here."

Hei Ta beckoned to Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi wasn't shy at all, and directly pulled Naxi Da to the three of them.

"Hello, Miss Bai Zhi, I have long admired the name of the Divine Capital Dragon Lord of the Luofu Immortal Ship. The young lady next to you also seems quite extraordinary. I hope Miss Bai Zhi can introduce her to you."

The first to speak was Screw Gum, whose tone was gentle. If it weren't for the slight electronic tone in his voice, it would be hard to tell whether he was human or robot.

“Hello, Your Majesty Lord of the Screw Star, Mr. Screw Goom.” Bai Zhi nodded to Screw Goom in a friendly manner. “Next to me is Nasita, who is very knowledgeable about consciousness.”

"Hello, Miss Nasita." Upon hearing this, Screwgoom greeted Nasita as well, "Perhaps we will have a lot in common and a passion for discussion."

“Mr. Screws has been conducting in-depth research on consciousness. Nasita, perhaps you could discuss it with him.”

Bai Zhi whispered something to Naxi Da.

Among the three—Black Tower, Ruan Mei, and Screw Gumu—Ruan Mei seems to be the least emotional and the most abnormal.

In reality, both Heita and Ruan Mei are normal people. One is an arrogant genius, and the other is a reclusive biologist with little common sense about interpersonal relationships and emotions, who devotes himself to scientific research.

Screw Goom, as an intelligent machine, possesses an emotional logic and gentle temperament that is closest to that of ordinary people.

That's the weirdest thing.

However, it is precisely because of this that Nasita is able to communicate with Screwgoom, because Nasita's own thought process is indeed somewhat similar to that of AI.

“What a lot of formalities, little guy. This guy over here is Nguyen Mai, a genius specializing in biology. She might have the kind of technology you’re looking for.”

Hei Ta pointed to Ruan Mei and introduced her, while Ruan Mei looked at Bai Zhi with a slightly curious gaze.

She had seen videos of Bai Zhi fighting, so she was very curious about the power that Bai Zhi possessed that made people immune to death.

What is the upper limit of this so-called immunity to death, and can it affect one of her creations?

"Hello, can you cooperate with some experiments?" Ruan Mei said earnestly. "I can also help you develop the technology you want."

“Okay, very straightforward, that’s how this guy is.” Black Tower shrugged.

"But don't worry, although this guy sometimes seems very daring with certain experiments, he actually controls them very well and they basically won't go wrong."

"Does that kind of technology, which allows one to create a physical body of corresponding strength through consciousness, really exist?"

Bai Zhi asked with considerable curiosity.

Ruan Mei nodded slightly, then shook her head. "If your abilities are within my expectations and work in conjunction with my techniques to prevent the born body from collapsing, then it is possible."

"But if your abilities don't meet expectations, I can only create a relatively weaker body."

Chapter 485 Ruan Mei's Drugging Accident Backfires

The stronger the body, the higher its stability needs to be.

Ruan Mei knew this well. For example, the Star Shattering King Worm hidden in the concealed layers of the space station was only expected to exist for 56 seconds.

If other scientists could do this, they would probably be overjoyed and even become famous throughout the cosmos.

But for Nguyen Mai, this outcome was far too bad.

Less than a minute of life meant little to her.

But she had seen Bai Zhi's abilities. If she had Bai Zhi's abilities, could she prevent the physical bodies of the powerful creatures she created from collapsing?

She was actually skeptical about this.

The main point is that even though the Star Shattering King Insect Skarakabaz is incomplete, it still possesses some of the power of a Commander-level being.

Could that ability work against such a being?

"You really have a way, Miss Ruan Mei. I think we can definitely cooperate."

"I'll help you complete your experiment, and in return, you give me that technology. What are the terms?"

"Hey kid, you actually have that kind of ability?"

Black Tower glanced at Bai Zhi with some surprise, even though Ruan Mei thought she had fooled the others on the space station.

But even the Doctor of Truth from the outside world's Erudite Society knew about this, so how could the Black Tower, which has the highest authority in the entire space station, not know what Ruan Mei was doing in secret?

However, she knew her colleague's personality; to put it simply, he was someone who had gotten into biology and thought he could understand everything about humanity through his superior biology knowledge.

But in reality, this does not improve our understanding of human nature, much less our emotional intelligence.

They thought that if they could cultivate a planet, they could see through the essence of all life.

Even when communicating with people, they treat them like experimental subjects and lab rats.

"Sigh, studying biology is really harmful..."

"Ok?"

Bai Zhi looked at the black tower, who had suddenly sighed, somewhat puzzled.

"It's nothing. Since your research on Ruan Mei is helpful, you should go and help her."

"This guy, though a bit aloof, at least offers decent compensation."

"Hmm... I'll pay you. Would you like some of the pastries I made?"

Ruan Mei hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Wow, Miss Ruan Mei, as a genius of the Genius Club, I didn't expect you could also make pastries!"

Bai Zhi didn't refuse, even though she knew from the story that most of the pastries Ruan Mei gave her contained some kind of secret ingredient.

However, she had a horse charm, so she ate it without a care.

Just thinking about this, Bai Zhi suddenly understood what Hei Ta meant by "studying biology".

Ruan Mei may indeed be obsessed with studying biology; before she wants to accomplish something, she will try to control some variables of the experimental materials.

In her eyes, there was probably only the difference between experimental subjects and non-experimental subjects.

"Okay, then come with me, I'll bring you the pastries."

Ruan Mei's eyes lit up slightly as she spoke.

Ruan Mei took the lead and walked out of the conference room, while Bai Zhi also stood up.

“I suggest you don’t eat her food,” Black Tower suddenly said, and Screw Gum next to him nodded slightly.

"A reminder: Ms. Ruan Mei is a very meticulous scientist, so she tends to be quite controlling about things related to experiments. Ms. Bai Zhi, I hope you are aware of this."

Bai Zhi waved her hand, "Don't worry, I grew up in the Pill Refining Division, I'm not so easily poisoned by anything~"

“Nasita, you stay here and talk to the two geniuses. I’ll go and discuss other matters with Ruan Mei first.”

“Okay,” Nasita replied obediently.

I just chatted with this ScrewGumm, and I feel that there are indeed many things to discuss. For example, she seems to have her own unique insights into human nature.

This is also her weakness; her thinking is more like that of an observer, absorbing a lot of knowledge and experiencing everything, but not fully understanding the mysteries within.

It's simply because that's the answer, like the question of humans using the toilet.

Bai Zhi followed Ruan Mei to a small room, where a scene resembling a fairy boat had been projected onto the room.

On the central table, a plate of delicate pastries was placed there, emitting a faint fragrance reminiscent of plum blossoms mixed with honey.

"Miss Bai Zhi, please have a seat."

After Bai Zhi sat down, Ruan Mei also took her seat and gestured for the pastries on the table to be served.

"This was made with fresh plum blossoms from my hometown and some just the right amount of ingredients. As a participant in the experiment, Miss Baizhi should eat her fill before taking any action."

"It smells really good." Bai Zhi picked up a pastry, smelled it, and a refreshing aroma went straight to her mind.

Take a gentle bite, and it's as if a delicate flower is blooming in your mouth.

Upon first touch of the tongue, one can feel its soft and delicate texture, like dewdrops gently sliding off flower petals in the morning. A subtle sweetness, accompanied by the unique fragrance of other fillings, slowly spreads in the mouth, offering both a rich and refreshing sensation.

However, to Bai Zhi's surprise, the horse talisman was not activated.

Are there any strange or unusual drugs in these pastries?

But immediately, a feeling of heat arose, and Bai Zhi felt that her power seemed to be boiling, and her overall strength was temporarily increasing.

"These pastries contain some tonics that have a strengthening effect on the body, Miss Baizhi. These things may be helpful in enhancing your abilities."

"...Ms. Ruan Mei, I don't think this is a good idea!"

Bai Zhi suddenly grabbed Ruan Mei's hand, and as she spoke, sparks flew from her mouth.

She felt that this powerful tonic had somehow turned on some strange switch, and suddenly Ruan Mei in front of her seemed even more delicious. She really wanted to do something.

Feeling the burning sensation from her wrist being grabbed, Ruan Mei felt as if she had made a mistake.

"Miss Baizhi...can you let go of me? You're hurting me a little."

Ruan Mei, who had never known what fear was, said subconsciously, while tugging at her hand, but found it had no effect.
