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

Klein, Möbius's puppet assistant.

"Yes, the Doctor created me two days ago and inputted a large amount of memories into my core."

"That's it..."

Bai Zhi nodded knowingly. She wasn't too surprised to see Klein here, after all, Klein had always been a good assistant to Möbius.

Even if we come here, it's perfectly normal to try to recreate Klein.

"Klein, she really is my dear boss, hehe, the very rich kind."

Mebius walked out of the research institute wearing a loose-fitting white lab coat and black circus gloves.

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi rolled her eyes at Mebius, annoyed. "300 billion credits, you'd better hurry up and produce the research results."

"Boss, Dr. Mebius has been working very hard lately. She hasn't slept for two days and is only keeping herself awake by drinking coffee."

Klein quickly added.

"Um... Bai Zhi, how about we wait until Dr. Möbius has rested before we talk about this?"

Misaka Mikoto, standing to the side, awkwardly tugged at Bai Zhi's clothes. The person in front of her looked ethereal and like she was about to die suddenly. Was it really okay for her to bother her like this?

It doesn't matter if my own strength doesn't improve, but if I cause the death of Bai Zhi's great scientist, I would be so ashamed that I would want to disappear.

“It’s okay, this is easy to solve. Besides, it’s not that I asked her to work overtime. I advocate for an eight-hour workday.”

"But didn't you just say you wanted to get the research results as soon as possible... Ah, sorry!!"

Misaka Mikoto muttered to herself, but immediately realized that she had said something that might have been disrespectful, and hurriedly bowed and apologized profusely.

"She volunteered to work overtime. Don't think of me as some evil capitalist who exploits his employees with a 996 work schedule!"

Bai Zhi sighed and rubbed her forehead, then walked up to the swaying Mebius and took his hand.

Horse Talisman and Dragon Talisman, activate!

Mebius, who had previously looked ethereal, suddenly lost his dark circles and felt his body brimming with energy, an inexplicable surge of motivation.

"Wow, my dear boss, you have this function too?"

Mebius stretched his body in surprise. "Why don't you stay here with me from now on? My research institute is quite big. You can play around as much as you want, and sleep when you're tired. No problem."

Bai Zhi crossed her arms: "Damn it!"

She knew perfectly well what Mebius was up to; this research fanatic was probably after the effects of her horse charm.

It can directly eliminate drowsiness and various negative effects caused by not sleeping—a standard scientific superpower.

"Doctor, please don't treat your boss like a high-class coffee shop. What if she gets angry and stops providing funding?"

Klein added from the side.

"Tch, fine, fine, then my dear boss, you didn't come here today to inspect my research results, did you? I bet it's related to this young lady next to you."

Mebius glanced at Misaka Mikoto and said.

"Pretty much. This is my friend Mikoto, from Academy City. In her world, there are all sorts of supernatural abilities, and many of these abilities rely on the brain's computing power. The stronger the computing power, the more powerful the superpower."

"Mikoto wants to improve her calculation skills, and I feel that you might be able to help her."

"Using computing power to enhance combat strength... Interesting. Just how good is her computing power right now?"

Mebius showed interest; this amazing way of enhancing combat power made her very eager to investigate it.

"I can't quantify this, but it should be at the level of being able to control the electricity of a huge city on one's own."

"Has it reached this level? That's certainly not low."

Mebius curiously looked Misaka Mikoto up and down at the electricity of a huge city. It was terrifying that it could be calculated and controlled by the human brain. It was indeed something.

Logically speaking, given the physical properties of the brain, this level of computation would almost certainly result in the brain being overheated.

"This child may have the potential to become a judge of reason."

Mebius said, half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Haha, maybe it really is true, but there's no Honkai energy in her world, so let's help her improve her computing power."

Misaka Mikoto's absurd calculation ability, if she were to actually travel to Honkai Impact 3rd and gain Honkai energy adaptability, she might actually be able to try and become the Herrscher of Reason.

"Okay, let's go collect the relevant gene samples and have a physical examination first. I'll analyze them and see how to proceed."

Mebius did not refuse. She was also very curious about what Misaka Mikoto's genes were all about. If she could study them, perhaps she could apply them to herself in the future.

After arriving here, she was quite envious of some intelligent machine beings, because some intelligent machines come with huge computing modules, and they might be good at scientific research.

"Then I'll leave her in your care. Oh, and don't forget, you and Mikoto are both coming to the concert tomorrow."

"I know, I know. I haven't forgotten about the concert with Alicia and Eden. Klein, set an alarm to remind me."

"Okay, Doctor."

Klein answered immediately.

"Miss Mikoto, come with me. I will help you improve your computing power."

After saying that, Mebius grabbed Misaka Mikoto and hurriedly ran towards the interior of the research institute.

Bai Zhi was stunned by his fanatical expression.

"Is everything... alright?"

Bai Zhi thought with some uncertainty that she had specifically mentioned that Misaka Mikoto was her friend, so Mebius shouldn't have turned her into some kind of alien or anything like that.

"Forget it, there's no point in worrying about this now. Who should we summon next?"

Bai Zhi stroked her chin and thought for a moment, the images of some people echoing in her mind.

"Oh, right, those two emperors, it seems like we haven't been paying much attention to them lately."

Bai Zhi immediately thought of who to invite. Ever since she transferred her wish power, the voices brought by those wishes had drifted away from her. She had almost forgotten the two emperors who initially brought her wishes power.

Chapter 586 Inviting Old Zhu: Could it be that Immortal Bai Zhi is the Lord of the Stars?

"Cough cough cough... Yunwen, you must remember, after I go to see your Empress Dowager, you must abide by some things... cough cough cough."

The old emperor touched the head of the young man before him, his cloudy eyes filled with regret.

"Grandpa, you are blessed with great fortune, you will surely not leave your grandson!"

The boy lowered his head, his voice trembling with tears, seemingly heartbroken, but a hint of joy shone in his unseen eyes.

The emperor sighed, looked at the boy, and gently shook his head.

Although his grandson seemed filial, how could he, as the founding emperor who had conquered the country, not see through the emotions hidden in him?

This kid is probably just waiting for me to ride the dragon to heaven and then take over this vast empire.

He was actually quite dissatisfied with the child, but fate had other plans. His child, the Crown Prince Zhu Biao, who was recognized by the entire court, escaped his first calamity with the help of a celestial being.

But during a cruise, he accidentally fell into the water and was swept away by a whirlpool before anyone could rescue him.

By the time the guards found him, the prince, whom he had painstakingly saved and even begged the immortal Bai Zhi to do, had already stopped breathing.

At that time, he was almost insane. He knelt under the huge statue of the immortal with his son's body in his arms, bathed in the infinite light of faith, hoping that the immortal would appear again and pull his son out of the underworld.

However, no matter how long he knelt before the statue of the immortal or how grand the sacrificial ceremony was, the divine light emanating from the largest statue could only prevent the body of his beloved son from decaying, but it could not awaken him from the darkness of death.

He knew that perhaps he had been too greedy. The powerful immortal had already shown mercy by saving his son once; it was not right to do it again and again.

Moreover, reversing life and death goes against the laws of nature, and even immortals would probably not be willing to do such a thing for him.

His wife, Empress Nama, also became depressed because of the news and died less than a year later.

This was an even greater blow to him. Zhu Biao was his only child, while the others were just princes.

Empress Ma was his only wife, his first wife; the other women were just ordinary concubines.

This mother and child were everything to Zhu Chongba; everyone else belonged to the Ming Emperor.

So over the years, he has aged too quickly. Even though the anti-aging medicine restored his body to its youthful state, he still looks like he is on his deathbed.

In order to allow his incompetent grandson to control this vast empire, he killed many of his former brothers and outstanding generals.

But seeing his grandson still so incompetent, and with Confucian classics ingrained in his mind, he still felt a sense of despair.

"Yunwen... After I meet your grandmother, you must not kill your own siblings, and you must also be careful to have your own ideas and not be led by others... cough cough cough."

He coughed violently several times, and a trace of blood appeared on his hand covering his mouth.

"Grandpa Emperor, I will remember this and never kill my own brothers. I will also treat my uncles well!"

Zhu Yunwen said with great conviction.

Old Zhu nodded slightly. Although his grandson was influenced by Confucianism and lacked his own opinions, he shouldn't do anything to his uncles.

After all, Confucianism also values ​​brotherly love and respect.

Old Zhu took a deep breath. "There's one more thing. Remember to pray to the Immortal Baizhi often. She has protected countless people like us."

"it is good……"

Zhu Yunwen nodded in agreement, but he didn't really mean it.

In his view, this immortal might really be very capable, but those Confucian sages could also place the statue of the deity aside and accept worship.

At least in the past, the name of this Bai Zhi Immortal had not been passed down. Perhaps he was just an unknown minor immortal from heaven. If he were to worship this sage Confucius, he might be able to attract the sage's attention and ensure that his dynasty would last for thousands of years.

"Okay, just remember that..."

Old Zhu said with relief, "As long as we remember the good deeds of that immortal and worship him every day, he might lend a helping hand when the empire is in danger."

As he spoke, Old Zhu felt himself getting sleepy again.

"Old man, how did you get so old? I remember giving you the anti-aging medicine! And where's your wife?"

Suddenly, a voice rang in his ear. He was stunned for a moment, and his first thought was—who is so bold as to call me an old man?

Then I sensed something was off. The voice seemed familiar, and I felt a strange excitement welling up inside me.

He subconsciously compared the fragments with his memories, and then opened his eyes in astonishment.

The air was filled with the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers. A short girl with dragon horns, dressed in gorgeous clothes, was staring at her curiously.

"The Immortal Bai Zhi?!"

Old Zhu's eyes widened in surprise. At that moment, he wondered if he was hallucinating.

Or is it that he died and ascended to the celestial realm, where he finally met this immortal?

"Has he gotten so old that he has dementia?"

Bai Zhi stroked her chin, looking at Old Zhu with his cloudy eyes, pondering whether the difference in the flow of events between the Star Iron World and the other world was too great. Had the other person already reached the age of dementia?

But in the history I studied, I never heard that Zhu De developed dementia in his later years.

Or is it that your medicine has changed something?

"Immortal, I...I'm alright. Is this the Immortal Realm? Am I dead?"

"Ah, it seems you can still talk. This place is my planet, um... you can think of it as a star in the sky."

Bai Zhi offered an explanation.

So the immortal is the Lord of the Stars!

Old Zhu was immediately shocked. This Lord of the Stars was no ordinary nameless immortal.

Just like the moon and the sun in the sky, each has its own star deity.

"And you're not dead. I'm going to hold a concert here, you can think of it as... a banquet!"

Old Zhu nodded frantically. He understood. Bai Zhi was the Lord of the Stars, and a banquet gathering of immortals was about to be held here.

To be able to invite so many immortals to a banquet at one's residence, the status of an immortal must be extremely high.

Bai Zhi scratched her head. She noticed that Old Zhu was staring at her strangely, and she felt that he had misunderstood something.

"But you look so old now, has many years passed?"

Bai Zhi felt it was difficult to explain planets to the ancients, so she simply stopped trying and asked a different question.

Chapter 587 Old Zhu, are you sure you want to hear a story about high blood pressure?
