Lin Shuang pursed her lips; she knew Herta would say that.

Fortunately, Lin Shuang hadn't told her that the reason she had this ability was because of her 'marriage' with your doll.

While people like Acheron or the Stellaron Hunter found it amazing, they weren't researchers, so they didn't say much beyond their amazement.

But the Herta is different.

If Herta finds out, who knows what he'll do.

He might just wave his hand and make the women on the Space Station line up to marry Lin Shuang.

In any case, Lin Shuang wouldn't dare let such a person know about these things.

"What, is that not allowed? Whatever your requirements are, we can discuss them."

Herta looked up at Lin Shuang, assuming that Lin Shuang was unwilling.

"That's researching my own body, you know that."

"Ah, I understand, I understand. You mean the safety of the experiment, right? We can sign a contract, and you can write down your bottom line..."

Hearing Herta speak eloquently, Lin Shuang nodded, then said very seriously:

"No, I mean, it has to cost more."

"Hey, you're pretty good at making money."

Herta laughed, then nodded in satisfaction at Lin Shuang:

"It's settled then. Next time you come to test the Simulated Universe, you can do that too."

After saying that, Herta logged off.

The Herta Puppet, now disconnected, fell silent.

"You're leaving already?"

Lin Shuang sighed, feeling relieved.

Even if Herta doesn't care, it's still quite embarrassing to be caught doing this.

Lin Shuang continued to direct the Herta Puppet to tidy up the room and change its clothes back.

Lin Shuang changed her clothes and then collapsed onto the sofa.

He opened Acheron's chat window and began to ramble on about what had happened that day.

[Lin Shuang: Are you there? How far are you from Penacony?]

Fortunately, the signal was received in the area where the Acheron reside.

Therefore, Acheron's message was replied to very quickly.

[Acheron: I'm here]

[Acheron: It's not far, there's still time before the Charmony Festival.]

[Acheron: Are you done with your work?]

[Lin Shuang: Yes, she's back.]

[Acheron: Then let me go back.]

[Lin Shuang: Okay.]

By now, Lin Shuang's sense of shame had been worn away to almost nothing.

Calling someone "sister" is nothing to be ashamed of.

Of course, mainly because at times, Acheron would also call Lin Shuang" sister".

In a way, they evened things out.

"Help me, Sister Acheron ~"

As Lin Shuang called softly, Acheron appeared in the room, fully dressed.

His previously tense expression visibly relaxed upon seeing Lin Shuang.

What happened next?

When they contacted each other before, Acheron only knew that they had encountered the Anti-Matter Legion at the Space Station, and he hadn't heard Lin Shuang tell him what happened after that.

"Nothing major happened. I mainly met the Herta and the people from the Star Rail Express..."

Lin Shuang remained sprawled on the sofa, beckoning Acheron to sit down as well.

However, as Acheron approached, Lin Shuang caught a whiff of lingering 'battle'.

Something must have happened again.

Lin Shuang didn't intend to ask.

The probability of encountering danger in unexplored areas is far too high.

"The Stellaron Herta had placed on the Space Station was taken by Kafka and inserted into Xing's body. However, Herta didn't seem to mind; instead, it became very interested in Xing's physique."

"That's something Ms. Herta would do."

Acheron wasn't surprised at all by this; Herta, as a genius, was also known for his capriciousness.

Just as they were speaking.

The Herta Puppet came out of the room. She had changed back into her own clothes and went to the kitchen to pour Acheron a glass of water.

"This is?"

"The Herta doll—she said she wanted to study me, and I asked for it. I never expected the Herta to actually give it to me."

"So kind of you?"

Acheron took the water glass with some surprise, examined it carefully, and suddenly saw the faint, flickering blue-green flames in the eyes of the Herta Puppet.

"... It's simply that Herta doesn't care; she only pays attention to things that interest her."

"Oh... so, did you also perform some kind of Ritual with this doll?"

Acheron nodded slightly, and then his words almost made Lin Shuang spit out her drink.

"Ahem... Why did you have to start with that?"

Despite Lin Shuang's complaints, Acheron calmly drank her water; she actually quite enjoyed seeing Lin Shuang get angry.

The fluctuating emotions in Acheron will make him feel the meaning of life.

"Isn't that right? I remember you used to really admire those high-end Spaceship, but you didn't want them when you came into contact with the Herta this time. I think it can only be for 'power'."

"..."

Lin Shuang was speechless, feeling as if she had been thoroughly exposed.

"Okay, that's me."

As she said this, Lin Shuang pursed her lips and took out the Light Cone.

"After Herta had me test one of her projects, she gave me a Light Cone. My new ability is to make the Remembrance within the Light Cone clearer, indirectly enhancing the power of the Light Cone."

"This is... The Permanence."

The moment Acheron saw the Light Cone, his eyes immediately became serious.

This is a Light Cone that clearly records the appearance of the Aeon.

Moreover, she was an Aeon who disappeared early on, making it very difficult to find information about her.

This Light Cone is incredibly valuable...

Not only is it incredibly powerful, but the Remembrance sealed within it are enough to make countless people pursue it.

Furthermore... if the Sushang found out, who knows what might happen.

"Yes, it's that the Permanence scene, it actually happened during a test of Simulated Universe..."

Lin Shuang explained the origin of the Light Cone and why it had turned into the shape she held in her hand.

Even the Aeon of Elation has appeared.

Thinking of this, Acheron couldn't help but sigh.

Volume 1: Chapter 183 Acheron: Is this child mentally challenged?

Acheron sighed silently in his heart.

Do you really think being targeted by so many Aeon is a good thing?

What's more, there's also the rather abstract Aha around, who knows what he might do.

The whole "Simulated Universe" thing sounds off. Could a simulated Aha really have that kind of ability?

While Acheron was still worried, Lin Shuang, standing to the side, was still grinning foolishly, seemingly carefree.

Acheron couldn't resist any longer and raised his hand to pinch Lin Shuang's still-smiling face.

Stretch it with force.

Is this child a little dim-witted?

"Hey, what's wrong...?"

Lin Shuang, who was inexplicably pinched on the cheek, slapped Acheron's hands away in annoyance.

In just a short while, Lin Shuang's face was pinched until it turned bright red, Acheron hadn't even held back much.

Lin Shuang glared resentfully at Acheron, then raised her hand and rubbed her cheek.

However, Acheron showed no intention of apologizing. Instead, he said in front of Lin Shuang:

"How come I never realized you were so dim-witted?"

"What are you talking about? What do you mean by 'stupid'? How am I stupid?"

Seeing that Lin Shuang seemed completely clueless, Acheron was almost amused by her audacity.

She suddenly stood up, turned around, and pinned Lin Shuang to the sofa, rendering her unable to move.

Then, Acheron said from his superior position:

"Didn't I tell you before not to mess with someone like the Emanator?"

"I didn't! I'm innocent, sir! The entire Anti-Matter Legion, including that most powerful Doomsday Beast, is still lying outside our house. Where Emanator from?"

"..."

Acheron almost laughed out of anger.

You're the kind of kid who'll listen to reason, so I'll tell you not to Emanator an enemy like the Envoy again, like last time.

So you went and attracted the attention of an Aeon, didn't you?

Especially since he's an Aeon of Elation.

"So you've angered that Aeon of Elation, haven't you? Are you trying to skip grades like this?"

"Oh no..."

Seeing that she couldn't get away with just a perfunctory response, Lin Shuang curled the corners of her lips into a bright smile.

"Ouch, that hurts! Stop pinching me!"

Thus, Lin Shuang was mercilessly punished by Acheron.

Furthermore, since Lin Shuang was no match for Acheron, she was unable to break free.

"Don't force me to do it, waaaaaah--!"

Lin Shuang's face turned red with pain, and she grimaced, but she still raised her hands to threaten Acheron.

However, Acheron didn't take it seriously at all.

Seeing that gentle persuasion wasn't working, Lin Shuang had no choice but to resort to harsher measures.

Massage skills – activated!

He placed both hands directly on Acheron's waist and lower abdomen, unleashing his full power!!

At that moment, Acheron's body trembled noticeably.
