Honkai Encyclopedia: Start with the Sky Meteor!

The pioneer quickly returned to the Black Tower Space Station.

The Black Tower Office.

It seemed that Black Tower and Screw Gum had been waiting here for a long time.

"You are here? You are quite fast."

Black Tower said when he saw the pioneer.

"Why is Screw Gum here too?"

The pioneer looked at Screw Gum with some surprise.

"Long time no see, Ms. Xing. I hope you are doing well recently."

Screw Gum greeted.

"No time for you to exchange pleasantries, Screw. Let's talk business quickly."

Black Tower urged.

"Don't worry, Black Tower. Assuming that Chadwick has already stayed in tens of thousands of systems in Pinocchio's dream, then we don't need to be nervous about this few minutes of discussion."

"You've said all the nice words - I don't want to wait! The things he has are too valuable."

Screw Gum said.

"So, Chadwick is indeed..."

The pioneer hesitated.

If not, Black Tower would not have called her over so anxiously.

"Yes - he was indeed a member of the "Genius Club" before."

"That person is genuine... Well, I mean, the topic he is studying is very valuable."

Black Tower nodded.

"Calderon Chadwick, Genius Club #79. Specializations include solid physics, applied theory of imaginary numbers, and orbital mechanics. ”

Screw Gum added.

…

[Theresa: “She is a member of the Genius Club.”]

[Susanna: “She is the 79th seat. That’s incredible.”]

[Himeko: “She seems quite impressive, but why didn’t Black Tower remember her before?”]

[Kiana: “You are so forgetful.”]

[Tesla: “She sounds impressive, but compared to a genius like Black Tower, she is insignificant.”]

[Herster of Knowledge: “She is so impressive, but Black Tower can’t remember her? Oh my god!”]

[Shigure Kirara: “There are so many geniuses in the Genius Club. It is not easy to remember them all.”]

[Padofilis: “It is even more impossible for a normal person to be remembered by Black Tower…”]

[Alicia: “Black Tower is only the 83rd seat.” ”】

[Yulan Daier: “This seat is probably arranged according to the time of joining the club, and the level of achievement has nothing to do with it.”]

010

[Raiden Mei: “That’s no wonder. Black Tower joined later than Chadwick, so there is no impression of him.”]

[Xi’er: “And Chadwick doesn’t seem to be particularly famous…”]

…

“The seat is higher than Black Tower?”

The pioneer was surprised.

“…The seat is not equal to the status. You want to motivate me with this? No chance.”

Black Tower said.

"Since the fire of life was ignited in my core, I have rarely met souls that truly deserve the word "genius" in this long journey across the starry sea."

"Ms. Black Tower beside me is one of them, and so is Calderon Chadwick."

Screw Gum said.

"Hmph... and you even praised me, thank you."

Black Tower snorted coldly, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"I have met Dr. Chadwick twice. The first time was when he was young and energetic, and the second time was decades later. The two meetings were very different.

"Memories: Dr. Chadwick once asked me for help. He should have been around fifty years old at that time."

"I agreed to his request at that time. Since then, Calderon Chadwick has disappeared, as if there is no trace of him ever being in the starry sea. ”

“Until Ms. Black Tower received your message.”

Screw Gum explained.

“He is under house arrest in Pinoconi.”

The Pioneer said.

“The family… who knows what they are planning behind the scenes. Come on, screw, how do you want to act?”

Black Tower looked at Screw Gum.

“There are many doubts behind this matter, and I can’t sort out a convincing conclusion based on the limited information for the time being.”

“Hypothesis: Dr. Chadwick is indeed hated by the family for some reason and is under house arrest in the dream world; there are still unexplained loopholes in this deduction.”

“As far as I know, Calderon Chadwick is not an immortal. And many years have passed since he last communicated with me.”

Screw Gum thought for a while and analyzed.

“The situation is getting more and more confusing. ”

The pioneers didn’t understand what happened.

What allowed Chadwick, an ordinary human, to survive until now?

“I’m afraid there is only one way to solve the mystery.”

“I want to go to Pinoconi in person and visit Dr. Chadwick under the pretext of visiting him. Ms. Xing, would you like to go with me?”

Screw Gum looked at the pioneers and invited them.

“Let’s go, I’m so curious.”

The pioneers couldn’t wait any longer.

“I’m always fascinated by the passion you show in the face of the unknown.”

“Before we set off, there’s one more thing I need to let you know, Ms. Xing.”

“The most outstanding achievement of Calderon Chadwick’s life is a weapon called “Imaginary Collapse Pulse”——”

“——That weapon has taken away countless people’s homes and lives. "

Screw Gum reminded the pioneers.

...

[Raiden Mei: "Imaginary collapse pulse? !"]

[Kiana: "Imaginary energy? I didn't expect Chadwick to be able to use the power of imaginary numbers?"]

[Yulandel: "Don't worry, Kiana, the imaginary numbers they are talking about may not be the same as what we think of themThe same concept."]

[Einstein: "Yes, but it is certain that the power of imaginary numbers is spread throughout the universe, and it may be the same..."]

[Himeko: "After all, he is a member of the genius club, so it is understandable that he can touch imaginary numbers."]

[Shigure Kirara: "But, he can actually use the energy of imaginary numbers, which even the Herrscher may not be able to control..."]

[Theresa: "Huh, what's the fuss? It's just the power of imaginary numbers, but it's really amazing that a mere human can control the collapse of imaginary numbers."]

[Tesla: "Chadwick should not be able to control this energy correctly, otherwise he would not have destroyed the homes and lives of countless people..."]

[Xi'er: "I don't think Chadwick looks like a bad guy, there must be some reason."]

[Hei Xi'er: "Xi'er, don't be too naive, will a bad guy write me on his face? ”】

……

Afterwards, ScrewGum and Pioneer met in the lobby of Pinocchio Hotel.

“Finally we meet again, Ms. Star.”

ScrewGum greeted Pioneer.

“You’re really quick.”

Pioneer said.

“Haha, I have to praise the miracle that Pioneer has brought to this universe.”

“I haven’t been here for a long time. The lobby of the Daydream Hotel is still as extravagant as I remember.”

“Let’s go to the front desk to ask about Chadwick’s whereabouts.”

“I have always been in awe of “dreams”, so I don’t often visit Pinocchio’s so-called “Dream of the Gala”.

“To me, the so-called beautiful dreams are sweet and fake, which is far from what a “dream” should look like. ”

“I wonder if Chadwick, who has been immersed in the dream for a long time and is still in reality, is safe.”

On the way, Screw Gum couldn't help but sigh.

The two came to the front desk.

The one who was responsible for receiving them was still Miss Ellie.

“Welcome back to Pinocchio, Miss Xing. Is there anything I can do for you?”

Ellie still remembered the pioneer.

“Who is this person next to you…”

She looked at Screw Gum next to the pioneer and asked in confusion.

“My name is Screw Gum, ma’am. Please forgive me for coming here uninvited and not checking in. You should be able to find my name on the family’s “permanent VIP list”. "

Screw Gum said.

When she heard the four words "Screw Gum", Ellie's facial features twitched slightly, but she remained calm. You sincerely admire her professionalism.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Screw Gum."

"..."

Ellie turned to check and came back soon.

"I have confirmed that your name is indeed on the "Permanent VIP List"Welcome back to Pinocchio, Mr. Screw-Gum. Is there anything I can do for you?"

...

[Herstress of Knowledge: "Permanent VIP? Screw-Gum's status is really high."]

[Raiden Mei: "He is the leader of mechanical life and the master of Screw-Gum Planet. How can his status not be high..."]

[Padofilis: "I knew Screw-Gum was very powerful, but I didn't expect him to be so famous in Pinocchio?"]

[Himeko: "I feel like a star... No, a superstar!"]

[Rosalia: "When Ellie heard the name of Screw-Gum, her eyes were different."]

[Theresa: "Maybe we are so often exposed to Screw-Gum that we don't feel anything anymore. In the eyes of ordinary people, Screw-Gum can be regarded as a legendary existence. ”】

[Rosalia: "Permanent VIP means you can stay at the Daydream Hotel at any time, wow, so cool."]

[Theresa: "The current Pinocchio is not a good place. There are too many ugliness under the beautiful dream."]

[Tesla: "Hehe, Pinocchio is still a prison after all."]

……

"Xing and I came here to visit a guest."

"Dr. Calderon Chadwick-Can you arrange a meeting for us? As far as I know, he should have stayed in Pinocchio for a long time."

Screw Gum spoke directly.

"Calderon Chadwick... Strange, I don't remember this name. Please wait a moment, I need to call up the system data..."

Aili prepared to check it.

"That's not necessary, Ali. ”

Just at this moment, a familiar and indifferent voice sounded.

“…I’m sorry, both of you. Dr. Chadwick is not available to receive visitors.”

Moira came to the frontier of the pioneer and screw-gum.

“It’s you!”

How could the pioneer not remember this member of the hound family.

“Before, at the border of dream building, I made an exception for you. The same thing will not happen again”

“You should be glad that Mr. screw-gum is by your side, dream chaser. Otherwise…”

Moira’s voice gradually became colder, and the threat in her eyes was not concealed at all.

“I think we don’t need to make the situation so tense. I guess everyone in the family doesn’t want to disturb the guests coming and going in the lobby, right?”

“As far as I know, Calderon Chadwick is not an immortal. And the last time I spoke to him…”

“…took place two Amber Ages ago.”

“Question: What methods did the family use to extend Calderon Chadwick’s life?”

“Has this method been approved by the Interstellar Medical Organization and is it in line with the regulations formulated by Pinoconi itself?”

Although Screw Gum did notHe was not angry, but his question made Moira feel pressured.

“…”

“I don’t have the authority to answer your question, sir. I also don’t have the authority to allow anyone to visit Dr. Chadwick privately… Please go back, there is no room for compromise here.”

Moira was silent for a while and spoke.

“I understand. All your actions are out of loyalty to the family”

“Then, can I assume that: in order to stick to your principles, you would rather push the entire family to the opposite side of Screw Star? Can you bear the consequences of being an enemy of the “Genius Club”? ”

Screw Gumu’s tone was flat, but the oppression between his words made people feel suffocated.

…

[Theresa: “Screw Gumu is so strong?”]

[Rosalia: “A bit domineering, worthy of being the master of Screw Star.”]

[Alicia: “This is the leader of mechanical life, how can you give in. ”】

[Jezi: “The usually gentle ScrewGum suddenly becomes strong, I’m a little uncomfortable…”]

[Padofilis: “After all, Chadwick is also a member of the Genius Club. Why does the family put him under house arrest?”]

[Herrscher of Knowledge: “Oh, ScrewGum is so strong, I like it!”]

[Yulandel: “That’s how it should be, otherwise the people in the family really think they can do whatever they want in Pinoconi?”]

[Kiana: “So cool, ScrewGum!”]

[Shigure Kira: “Moira, don’t be so arrogant, this is related to the survival of Pinoconi.”]

[Prometheus: “I think the family must have some unspeakable secrets to provoke the people of the Genius Club!”]

[Seele: “Maybe it has something to do with the imaginary collapse pulse? ”】

[Jizi: “It’s very likely!”]
