Ripples spread across the surface of the magic mirror, and a tall, slender beauty in a black dress, wearing a pointed witch's hat, emerged from them and stepped out.
"Coach, I want to learn magic!"
Xinghe and March 7th ran over.
"This is science, science! You just don't understand the formula."
Black Tower waved his staff and put away the magic mirror.
"Wow, is this Lady Black Tower's true form? So beautiful!"
March 7th exclaimed in amazement.
"Hmph~ Be grateful, those in the entire universe who can see my true form are extremely fortunate."
Black Tower, narcissistic, tossed her brown hair with her delicate hand and spread her slender white hand towards the sky.
"Where's that super interesting thing you were talking about? Give it to me."
"here."
Qiong held two earrings that shone like blazing gold pearls, but did not place them in the palm of the Great Black Tower.
"Don't rush."
When the Great Black Tower reached out to take it, it dodged backward. Qiong asked with a grin:
"I'm trying to collect a debt from the company, do you want to get involved?"
"Clam?"
This left Daheita momentarily stunned: "Asking the company for money?"
"Here's what happened!"
On March 7th, the chattering and gesticulating animatedly and indignantly described the company's unreasonable and thuggish debt collection practices and Qiong's retaliatory measures.
After listening, the Great Black Tower paused for a second, then scoffed:
"More boring chores. I'll have the company withdraw immediately and waive all of Ariello's debts, okay?"
The Black Tower and the Interstellar Peace Corporation are highly intertwined partners with equal power.
The company provides infrastructure and financial support, while Black Tower contributes scientific research results, and a dynamic balance is formed between the two parties in the game.
The company leverages Black Tower's research capabilities to strengthen its technological monopoly, while being wary of its intellectual leadership and technological prowess.
Black Tower, on the other hand, avoids directly challenging corporate financial hegemony and focuses on academic exploration.
When necessary, the Black Tower can resolve conflicts through technological countermeasures or high-level power struggles. For example, when the Estád family attempted to seize power, the Black Tower directly intervened to protect Estád and forced the company's top management to compromise, demonstrating its deterrent power over the company.
"Oh no, we haven't gotten our maintenance fees back yet."
Qiong shook her head.
"Even if I help you, the company can't possibly give you that amount of compensation... Are you really going to fight the company head-on?"
The big black tower twitched its brow.
The company will definitely give her face and let the matter rest, but if she tries to collect the debt, she might be able to get some compensation back. The amount Qiong is asking for... unless she fully supports Qiong.
But she still needs the company to handle many miscellaneous matters and doesn't want to fall out with the company.
"Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you."
"What does what Britta did have to do with your Black Tower?"
Qiong placed one earring in Black Tower's hand and tossed the other earring to Miss Hatto.
Black Tower, unaware of the earring's effects, observed it and asked curiously:
"Bunita? Who's that?"
"?"
Knowing the function of the earrings, the Haunted Rabbit craned its neck, stared wide-eyed, and slowly typed a question mark as it pointed at itself.
Let me merge with this narcissistic old woman?
What kind of interstellar joke is this?!
"A new genius."
Qiong winked at Haha Rabbit, and Brownie canceled the auto-battle, regained control of his body, and reminded Haha Rabbit in the telepathic channel.
Merging with geniuses can indirectly acquire a vast amount of knowledge, allowing one to grow rapidly to the point where they can construct and replicate starships.
That's right!
Upon hearing this, Miss Hatto immediately put aside her disdain for the narcissistic old woman.
Actually, that's not all. Once Secondary Silverwing obtains the Herrscher of Reason core, she will directly construct a star destroyer in the Honkai Impact 3rd world!

Volume 1: Chapter 469 Black Tower + Brownie = ?
The gaps in the sea of clouds reveal the dim and soft sunset, sometimes like a drawn curtain, and sometimes quickly rolled into a spiral ribbon.
That's an optical effect caused by the fleet's deployment of gravity anchors and atmospheric ionization.
The atmosphere on the rooftop of Cripper Castle was relatively quiet, with the sounds of bustling activity coming from the city of Beloborg audible.
The pointed witch's hat blooms with purple lisianthus flowers, and the great black tower's steps are elegant and relaxed.
Her left hand casually hooked around the carved shaft of the magic wand, which was covered with purplish-black vines that matched the pattern on her skirt. The top of the wand had a prismatic crystal inlaid with a deep purple gemstone, resembling a giant key.
"Mirror, did it detect anything?"
The fingers with purple manicured nails exuded a pleasant fragrance. The big black tower twirled the Tapora earring, and faint purple lightning flickered at the tip of his finger, but his brows furrowed as he did so.
She tapped the magic mirror with her wand.
"Oh—! The stunningly beautiful Lady Black Tower~ A great intellectual envoy! A true genius!"
The mirror's surface rippled with the flattering voice, rising and falling in cadence; the gems inlaid in its frame shimmered with each accented note, like a sound and light show.
"Please, please be gentle. I'm just a fragile little mirror, so delicate that I can't withstand a single blow."
When the tip of the Black Tower Staff impatiently tapped the edge of the mirror, the mirror instantly switched to a tearful mode, then raised its voice in a pitiful tone, like a shy girl about to be pinned down by her beloved.
"...As a mirror, isn't your sense of humor a bit excessive?"
The Great Black Tower's core chuckled as it gazed at the mirror:
"If you keep spouting nonsense, you'll be dead right here today, and my assistant's name will become 'The Fifth Mirror.'"
"Report the test results immediately."
"Yes!"
The fourth mirror startled her. It was clearly a mirror, but Qiong had the illusion that it was standing at attention, chest out and saluting.
"Reporting to Ms. Black Tower, the target appears normal at the macro level, except... in the imaginary state mode, there seems to be a horizon line, the interior of which is 'invisible'."
"An invisible event horizon? Could it be a new type of horizon in the ninth quadrant? That shouldn't be the case... surely there must be imaginary states?"
The Black Tower used a magic wand, a magic mirror, and scanning equipment mounted on the Little Black Tower doll to observe the target, but it didn't get much useful information.
At first glance, these gold earrings seem like ordinary jewelry, but the feedback from the magic mirror is enough to show that they are special.
It wasn't that there were no special features, but rather that the simple observation equipment she carried with her was inadequate.
"Stop researching, why not experience it for yourself?"
Qiong maintained her smile and pointed to 'herself' with her thumb:
"Here."
Brownie wore a tech jacket half-open, revealing a cropped tank top underneath. He had one hand in his shorts pocket and the other fingertip holding a gold-plated pearl earring.
She glanced in the direction of the fleet, which was out of sight, and proudly raised her head.
Hey, let's go big!
Neatly worn on his left ear, Brownie flicked the earring pendant with his finger, the metal knuckles striking the gold beads with a clear, resonant sound, as he raised an eyebrow at the Black Tower.
"..."
Brownie's deliberately drawn-out words made the Great Black Tower fall silent for a second, mainly because Qiong had laughed more than once before when teasing her true form.
"What do you mean?"
Black Tower quickly extinguished this thought—a thought that would never normally arise—due to his curiosity about Doraemon's magical gadgets:
"Let me wear it?"
"Wear it on the opposite ear as brownie."
Qiong pointed to the right ear of the Great Black Tower.
"Is that so?"
Daheita lightly twirled the earring with his slender, white fingertips, without even a second's hesitation, and fastened it to his right ear.
The metal clasp clicked shut, and she elegantly tossed her long, elegant brown hair, which danced lightly in the air like the finest silk, with stardust shimmering in the air.
"She's so beautiful."
Xing jumped over.
"But it's my turn soon."
Qiong replied in a barely audible voice.
"?"
Not having heard what Qiong said, Hei Ta tilted his head and cast a questioning glance:
"And then what...?!?"
The sound stopped abruptly, like water flowing out of a dam. The moist, rosy lips remained slightly parted, and the large black tower seemed to sense something, revealing a look of surprise.
Before she could experience more, her body was captured by an invisible force field, and her long, black-stockinged legs under the witch-style skirt were displayed right in front of Qiong's eyes.
The Great Black Tower had no interest in such a trivial matter as Qiong seeing under her skirt; she could clearly feel the other half of the earring.
The two bodies were drawn together like magnets, their curves, which combined were not even as big as Toppa's, collided with each other amidst Black Tower's subtle and slightly "wow" expression.
As their clothes intertwined, their noses almost touched, their bodies merging as if collapsing, and a dazzling white light shone forth.
In the bright light, an elegant yet dashing, aloof yet playful figure slowly emerged.
Her long, cool brown-gray hair, gradually fading to blue-purple, reached her waist, and a purple lisianthus crown adorned her head, standing up and swaying like rabbit ears.
The girl wore a black, functional long coat with fluorescent blue trim that resembled a flowing band of light. The purple patterns on the cuffs and hem resembled climbing bellflowers, and the purple dress she wore underneath cascaded down to her fair, alabaster-white legs.
The silver chain at her collar swayed gently, complementing the black choker adorned with purple flowers around her neck, making her appear both a scientific genius traversing a futuristic laboratory and a deity reigning over the world in the internet age.
Ankle boots encased adorable feet as they stepped onto a dark purple platform that seemed to have appeared out of thin air, its futuristic design etched with patterns reminiscent of a magic array.
What's most eye-catching is that stunningly beautiful face!
The concept of beauty was brought to its extreme at this moment. It is no exaggeration to say that if the God of Pure Beauty had not fallen, He would probably have descended to gaze upon her the instant the girl was born!
Toppa, Hoshino, March 7th, Bronya, and even Sora couldn't take their eyes off that face; she was like a witch.
The only drawback is her barely curved breasts.
"What?"
"What is this!?"
The first to scream was the fourth mirror, which jumped up in mid-air in a very human-like way, its corner pointing at the girl incredulously like a finger.
"Ms. Black Tower has merged with a little rabbit!?"
"Why did this plot twist happen?!"
"What on earth is that earring?!"
"Mirror."
The unfamiliar voice was like cold jade, a perfect blend of vitality and languor, with a hint of baby formula. What remained unchanged was the casual way of addressing the person and the commanding tone.
"Uh, I'm here!"
