Lin Yi:
"What happened?"
Lin Yi:
"Did your account get banned again?"
Silver Wolf:
"?"
Silver Wolf:
"Again?"
Silver Wolf:
"No bans, but the other side's indiscriminate attacks destroyed all my game accounts."
(crying)
Lin Yi:
"You agreed to the deal earlier."
"You can't complain just because you took extra losses."
Lin Yi:
"If you suffered additional losses, that just means your skills weren't good enough."
(laughing)
Silver Wolf:
(crying and throwing a tantrum)
Lin Yi:
"Alright, stop pretending."
"With your abilities, you can easily press the '~' key later and claim compensation for the accounts."
Lin Yi:
"And if that doesn't work, you can just go to the Interastral Peace Corporation headquarters and retrieve backup data."
Silver Wolf:
(poking fingers together awkwardly)
Lin Yi:
"I know what you want."
"Making you fight an unknown Genius for only twenty game cartridges was a bit unfair."
Lin Yi:
"After this is over, I'll give you the Curio Game Life."
Silver Wolf:
"Really?!"
Silver Wolf:
"THANK YOU, GODFATHER!!"
Silver Wolf immediately went offline and launched an even more ferocious attack.
Everything—
for the sake of the Curio.
The Stellaron had not even appeared yet, but this Silver Wolf already had that "Stellaron vibe."
See?
This was how Lin Yi built his connections.
Give and take.
Next time he asked Silver Wolf for help, would she refuse?
But Lin Yi had already prepared a couplet for her.
Upper line:
When a Herrscher can't keep her driver's license
Lower line:
When a hacker can't keep her accounts
Horizontal scroll:
Crying and throwing a tantrum
Whether Silver Wolf understood it or not did not matter.
When Lin Yi slipped this couplet into the Curio package and sent it later—
he would laugh about it for a long time.
That was enough.
Lin Yi chuckled.
"Little Silver Wolf…"
"How ridiculous."
The Interastral Peace Corporation certainly had backup data for Silver Wolf's game accounts.
The IPC's data storage center used the Nine-Character Algorithm, developed by Genius Society #22 Lierta, a famously selfless mathematician and physicist.
This algorithm made the IPC database extremely secure.
No matter who attacked—
the Nine-Character Algorithm could stall them for three minutes.
Even a beginner hacker could break it after three minutes.
Even a Genius specialized in hacking would still be blocked for those same three minutes.
But those three minutes of absolute safety were enough for the IPC to transfer data and pull the plug.
Of course, this storage system had disadvantages.
Otherwise it would have been widely adopted.
Its flaw was simple:
Outside those three minutes of protection, it had basically no other advantages.
Meta-Domain
Silkall shook her head violently.
"This isn't right."
"This is really not right."
"Why do I feel like the entire world is my enemy?"
"It feels like I'm not fighting a single opponent…"
"But the whole universe."
"This must be a dream."
"A strange dream…"
"…Wait, no!"
"Did the other side cheat?!"
Silkall was furious.
The battle had suddenly shifted from balanced to completely one-sided.
Earlier, some unknown hacker had also tried to join the fight.
Silkall admitted—
that hacker's skill was excellent.
But—
not enough.
She casually wiped them out.
Their data was completely shattered.
Apparently they had tons of game accounts too.
Silkall laughed.
"Someone with that many gaming accounts…"
"Must be a kid."
"They're probably crying somewhere right now."
But after crushing Silver Wolf—
Silkall realized something was wrong.
The opponent's computing power was increasing every moment.
And attacks kept appearing from all over the universe.
Those attacks were individually weak.
But there were so many.
Like mosquitoes in summer.
You could kill them with one slap—
but they never stopped coming.
That was exactly how Silkall felt right now.
Originally Silkall estimated that she and her opponent—likely Screwllum—were evenly matched.
The opponent had somehow obtained huge computational resources.
But her Meta-Domain could match them.
Under normal conditions, this epic cyber war should have lasted at least a month.
Unfortunately—
someone had no sense of honor.
Instead of a fair duel—
they called in reinforcements and ganged up on her.
The Meta-Domain had accumulated power for over a thousand Amber Eras.
That was terrifying.
But fighting the entire universe was still impossible.
Silkall's feeling that the world was against her was not an illusion.
The Interastral Peace Corporation had been confused at first by Lin Yi's strange request.
It was almost like:
"Please kneel down and help me."
But they reacted quickly.
Opportunities to gain favor with a Genius were extremely rare.
Especially since the IPC had long maintained a strategy:
Build strong relations with Genius Society #85 Lin Yi.
Only after losing a Genius did the IPC truly realize how valuable they were.
When Genius Society #22 Lierta was alive—
they understood geniuses were important.
But they did not truly feel it.
Until Lierta died.
The feeling was like Liu Shan losing Zhuge Liang.
For more than a thousand Amber Eras, the IPC had desperately searched for a replacement for Lierta.
But after losing him, they learned something:
Not every Genius was easy to work with.
Even someone like Genius Society #56 Elias Salas, a social fanatic and friendly old eccentric—
his friendliness was directed only toward other geniuses.
For people who could not keep up intellectually—
he had no interest in speaking with them.
His idea of friendship was limited strictly to geniuses.
That was why Elias Salas created inventions like:
Synesthetic BeaconsHyperdistance Telepathy
These were meant to help geniuses communicate.
But when the geniuses refused to socialize and ignored them—
he discarded the inventions like trash.
Later, scholars from the Intelligentsia Guild found the abandoned manuscripts and revived them.
Even someone as mild-tempered as Elias Salas behaved like that.
Other geniuses were far worse.
Some were even like:
Genius Society #27 RupertGenius Society #57 Dr. Primitive
The sort of geniuses who would literally "tear out your heart and lungs."
After waiting countless years—
the IPC finally found someone willing to cooperate.
Genius Society #79 — Cameron Chadwick.
The IPC had waited over a thousand Amber Eras for someone like him.
But they never expected—
after so many eccentric geniuses—
this one would be different.
Cameron Chadwick had the intelligence of a Genius.
But the heart of an ordinary person.
He was unbelievably kind.
So kind it almost felt wrong for a Genius.
His moral standards were absurdly high.
So high that the IPC found it painful.
Because if he had such strict moral purity—
if he was such an extreme lawful-good personality—
then why…
Why would he research something like:
Imaginary Collapse Pulse?
