奇物 Curio
黑塔女士的奇物展览柜，千奇百怪的小玩意。 Madam Herta's Curio cabinet is filled with a myriad of strange gadgets, each with its own story.
降维骰子 Dimension Reduction Dice
九枚六面骰组成了这个奇特的三角体，它能对自身进行持续不断的降维，从而以二维平面的方式存在于立体的世界里。谁以何种目的将其创造出来，目前还不清楚。
Nine six-sided dice make up this bizarre pyramidal device. It can continuously reduce the number of dimensions it occupies and exists in the 3-dimensional world as a purely 2-dimensional entity. No one knows who created it or why.
混沌云芝 Chaos Trametes
云朵是水汽聚合的产物，它们来得全无目的，散得毫无征兆，可人们注视着随机诞生的浮云时，却往往会看见想象之物现于天际——混沌医师相信世上没有绝对的虚无，一切看似无意义的存在都有其无法背离的含义。「混沌云芝」是他们最常使用的奇物道具，用来帮助那些颓唐的自灭者重建对生命价值的信心。
Clouds are born from a collection of moisture. They are created for no purpose, and dissipate without forewarning. However, when humans gaze upon the randomly created clouds, they often project their imagination onto these shapes. The Doctors of Chaos do not believe in absolute nihility. All that appears meaningless must have its own irrefutable purpose. Chaos Trametes is their most common Curio item, used to restore the confidence of despairing Self-Annihilators to have purpose in their lives again.
跃迁复眼 Warping Compound Eye
无名客分为两种，一种享受未知的神秘，另一种则偏向于有计划地开拓宇宙。后者利用阿基维利的力量制造了「跃迁复眼」，它的光线能率先跃迁至前方的星系，带回新世界的信息。对于那些孤身上路的无名客来说，跃迁复眼是必不可少的装备，它能防止无名客一头扎进被香涎干酪填满的世界里。
There are two types of Nameless. One type enjoys the mysteries of the unknown, while the other tends to trailblaze through the universe with a plan. The latter created the Warping Compound Eyes with the power of Akivili. The light of these gadgets can warp forward to the stars ahead of the user and bring back news from new worlds. For the Nameless who travels alone, Warping Compound Eyes are irreplaceable tools that prevent the Nameless from plunging headfirst into worlds filled with Ambergris cheese.
异木果实 Fruit of the Alien Tree
这颗形似心脏的果实来自于某株被药师赐福的大树，据说已有五十琥珀纪的历史。虽然不知它是否能使食用者长生不死，但显然它本身已是一种不死孽物。
This heart-shaped fruit comes from a tree blessed by Yaoshi and is supposedly 50 Amber Eras old. It is unclear whether the fruit would give immortality to those who eat it, but the tree itself is definitely an immortal abomination.
测不准匣 Casket of Inaccuracy
这只匣子的每一面都能够打开，本应重合的空间并不重合，由于这种独特的性质，你无法确定打开匣子后会发生什么，因此也并不建议在里面存放任何东西。
Each side of this casket can be opened. The spaces that should be overlapping are not overlapped. Due to this unique characteristic, no one can be sure of what will happen when the box is opened. Therefore, it is not recommended to store anything in it.
香涎干酪 Ambergris Cheese
曾有一个保姆机器人突发奇想，将丰饶香涎做成干酪，好满足小主人看似永无止境的食欲。不料香涎干酪竟自己生长起来，保姆机器人和主人开足马力，消化速度却也跟不上干酪的生长速度。于是他们只好求助路过的悲悼伶人，搭乘贡多拉逃去了别的星系。直到现在，银河中仍然有一个星系被美味的干酪塞得严严实实，一丁点空隙也没留下。这个故事很有教育意义：不要浪费粮食。
Once upon a time, a helper robot turned Ambergris of Abundance into cheese on a whim to satisfy its little master's seemingly never-ending appetite. Unexpectedly, the Ambergris Cheese started to multiply on its own. The helper robot and the master worked at full speed, but their digestion still could not keep up with how fast the cheese was multiplying. Therefore, they had to ask for help from a group of passing Mourning Actors and escaped to another world on a gondola. That one world in the cosmos is still stuffed full of delicious cheese to the day, packed so tight that not a single centimeter of space is left. The story teaches an important lesson about not wasting food.
福灵胶 Fortune Glue
运气是一种能力吗？也许；运气能够被改变吗？黑塔认为能。这位天才发明了「福灵胶」，将它涂抹在眼皮上，将获得整整24个系统时的好运。黑塔太空站的许多人欣喜若狂地试用这项发明，他们全都度过了波澜不惊的一天，这说明在动荡的世界上，能平凡地生活就已经很好运了。
Is luck an ability? Maybe. Can luck be changed? Herta believes it can. That genius invented the "Fortune Glue." Just apply it on your eyelids and you would get a full 24 system hours' worth of good luck. Many at Herta space station were ecstatic to try out this invention. They all had an uneventful day, which shows that it is already lucky to be able to live an ordinary life in a turbulent world.
永不停嘴的羊皮卷 The Parchment That Always Eats
在黑塔的奇物清单里，这张羊皮卷的危害等级被标注为极高。流落到黑塔空间站之前，它曾属于一位虚构史学家。羊皮卷以人类的历史为食，贪婪的舌头搅动着文明的集体潜意识，使之支离破碎。黑塔伪造了虚假的世界记忆供它吞噬，以此满足其无止境的饕餮欲望，不过总有一天，这张羊皮卷会识破天才的诡计。
In Herta's Curio list, the hazard level of this parchment is marked as extremely high. It once belonged to a History Fictionologist before ending up at the space station. The parchment feeds on the history of humanity, its greedy tongue churning the collective subconscious of civilization to pieces. Herta forged false memories of the world for it to devour to satisfy its endless gluttony. But one day, this parchment will see through the genius' tricks.
破碎咕咕钟 Broken Cuckoo Clock
一位咕咕钟匠人偶然得见「末王」，她手中的钟在惊诧中摔落在地，于「末王」的过去破碎损毁。这位匠人后来加入了厄兆先锋，试图以咕咕钟来解读末王的预言。虽然她生平创造无数，却始终珍藏着这台破碎的咕咕钟。它破碎之时，匠人已经遇见末王；它破碎之时，末王却未遇见这位匠人。
A cuckoo clock craftmaster once encountered Terminus. The clock in her hand fell to the ground in her surprise, becoming shattered and broken in Terminus' past. The craftmaster later joined the Omen Vanguards, trying to use cuckoo clocks to interpret Terminus' prophecy. Although she went on to create countless more clocks in her life, she always treasured this broken cuckoo clock. She had already met Terminus when it broke. Terminus had yet to meet her when it broke.
机械咕咕钟 Mechanical Cuckoo Clock
第二次鲁珀特之乱后，公司一度计划对全宇宙的机械生命进行残酷的灭绝。所幸在该计划尚未通过之时，#76螺丝咕姆被博识尊选中加入天才俱乐部的消息传到了公司的耳中。为了向新的天才示好，公司制造了这台机械咕咕钟作为礼物。以如今的眼光看来，这礼物也太过平平无奇——但那可是一个机械生命遭到迫害的年代。机械咕咕钟的诞生本身，就是和平的象征。
After the Second Rubert Rebellion, the IPC had once planned a brutal extermination of all mechanical life across the Cosmos. Fortunately, before the plan was passed, the IPC heard that #76 Screwllum was selected by Nous to join the Genius Society. The IPC then made this mechanical cuckoo clock as a gift to appease the new genius. This gift is very unremarkable in today's view, but that was an era when mechanical beings were persecuted. The birth of the mechanical cuckoo clock itself is a symbol of peace.
博士之袍 The Doctor's Robe
在第Ⅸ机关的秘密暗网，一件天价商品引来了无数竞拍者的关注。这件长袍据称曾属于天才俱乐部#64「原始博士」，拥有不可思议的力量。将它挂上暗网的是一位匿名用户，人们相信他是巡海游侠的一员，纷纷向之发问，但遗憾的是，直到长袍被拍下，这位神秘主人都没有作出任何回应。
An incredibly expensive item surfaced on Device IX's dark web one day and grabbed the attention of countless bidders. This robe was reportedly once owned by member #64 of the Genius Society, Dr. Primitive, and supposedly had incredible powers. The seller on the dark web was anonymous. People believed them to be a member of the Galaxy Rangers and kept sending them questions. Regrettably, this mysterious owner did not make any responses even after the item was sold.
俱乐部券 Society Ticket
天才俱乐部#56以利亚萨拉斯曾经有个美好的愿望：俱乐部里的天才们能够欢聚一堂，其乐融融地交流生活、爱情与梦想。为此，他发明了「俱乐部券」，并设计了一整套系统，保证即使在他死后，每位入会的新人都能得到这张能够即时传送到某个宴会位面的入场券。事实是，#56以后的每位会员都确实使用过「俱乐部券」，可时间从来没有重合过哪怕一次。
Genius Society #56, Elias Salas, once had a beautiful dream. He wished the geniuses of the Society could come together and happily converse about their lives, loves, and dreams. For that purpose, he invented "Society Tickets" and designed an entire system that ensured every new Society member would receive this ticket even after his death. This ticket would instantly teleport the user to a specific dimension decked with festivities. The truth is that every new member after #56 had indeed used their Society Ticket, but not a single one of them had used it at the same time as someone else.
信仰债券 Faith Bond
在星际和平公司中荣升P40级的员工，都将获得认购「信仰债券」的权利。它意味着路易斯•弗莱明对你的肯定，并附带了一项神圣无比的承诺：即在「琥珀王」命中注定的存护伟业之中将拥有你的一席之地。你的能力微乎其微，你的财富不足为道，你的信仰如同浩瀚星海中的一粒微尘。但一代又一代的「你」汇聚起来，终将拥有守护整个宇宙的力量。
Interastral Peace Corporation staff members who are promoted to level P40 gain the right to purchase Faith Bonds. These bonds indicate Louis Fleming's affirmation of the individual staff and come with a sacred vow: The staff now have a place in the Amber Lord's destined achievement of Preservation. One person's abilities amount to nothing, their wealth also amounts to nothing, and their faith is like a single particle of dust in the wide starry seas. However, generations of humanity will join together and ultimately obtain the power to protect the entire universe.
纯美之袍 Robe of The Beauty
纯美骑士纵横星海的时代，全宇宙都为他们的风采所倾倒；这群追寻着美的高贵骑士身着光耀照人的金银甲胄，肩披丝线与星光织就的华美战袍，在头盔之下，是俊美有如天神的绝代容颜。即使在「纯美」已然消逝的现代，那些曾经一睹骑士风华的人们依然相信伊德莉拉终将归来。
The entire universe bowed before the grace of the Knights of Beauty while they still traversed the skies. These noble knights who chased beauty wore resplendent gold and silver armor, and donned magnificent robes woven from silk and starlight. They had divinely beautiful features under their helmets. Even in the current era when the Beauty had already faded, those who had once witnessed the magnificence of the knights still believe Idrila will one day return.
分裂金币 Gold Coin of Discord
并非所有星球都对星际和平公司的商业帝国张开双臂表示欢迎，在不断扩张的星系版图之中，总有极个别的例外拒绝了公司的好意。「谢谢，」他们说，「但我们不需要信用点，我们完全有能力照顾自己。」面对如上情况时，公司的代表会耸耸肩，然后轻描淡写地摧毁该星球的金融体系根基——通常是黄金。
Not all planets opened their arms and welcomed the expansion of the Interastral Peace Corporation's commercial empire. While the cosmic map kept expanding, there were always rare exceptions that refused the IPC's beneficence. "Thank you," they stated, "but we don't need credits. We can look after ourselves just fine." The representative of the IPC would usually shrug at these statements, then casually destroy the root of that planet's commercial system — it is usually based on gold.
无效文字打印机 Useless Typewriter
这台打印机是从一位被公司流放的「谜语人」身上缴获的，它拥有27个按键，通过排列组合，能够产出宇宙中所有意义不明的语言。现在，你可以看看身旁有没有臃肿无聊琐碎混乱的文字，没准就是它的杰作呢。
This typewriter was confiscated from a Riddler exiled by the IPC. It has 27 keys and can produce all the undeciphered languages of the universe via its combinations. Now, look around to see whether there are meandering, pointless, broken, and chaotic words around you! Perhaps that would be the creation of this typewriter.
空无烛剪 Void Wick Trimmer
很少有人用这把烛剪处理蜡烛，却往往把它用在更残酷、更黑暗、更痛苦的地方。剪刀剪断的不是物质，而是生物心中的热量——被称为热情的动力。假如空无烛剪划过你的心脏，你将感受到的不是痛楚，而是冷漠。
Few would use this candle wick trimmer on real candles. This is usually reserved for purposes more cruel, dark, and painful. This trimmer does not cut anything material. It cuts the heat within a living organism's heart — the motivation named "passion." If the Void Wick Trimmer trims at your heart, you will feel no pain, only apathy.
万识囊 Omniscient Capsule
博识学会中有一群人认为科学与魔法本为一体。发达的科学即是魔法，严谨的魔法则是科学。他们从远古的奇幻传说中汲取灵感，制造了「万识囊」——一种轻巧的便携储物装置。在博识学会的构想中，万识囊最终将连接向一个个独立的半位面，拥有无限的空间，而不是如今所使用的超距折叠技术……他们仍在努力。
There is a group in the Intelligentsia Guild that believes science was originally the same as magic, that advanced science is magic and rigorous magic is science. They drew inspiration from ancient fantastic mythologies and created the Omniscient Capsule, a light-weight and convenient storage gadget. The Intelligentsia Guild planned for the Omniscient Capsule to ultimately lead to independent demiplanes, thus obtaining infinite space beyond the advanced spatial compression technologies currently in use... And they are still trying.
天外重声大碟 Record from Beyond the Sky
当「秩序」太一被希佩吸收时，天外合唱班失去了信仰，那曾经庄严井然的和声也随之哑然，令群星沉默无言。仅有少数几张由爱好者录制的唱片至今仍流传于世，将它放入特制的唱机中，你将听见来自宇宙彼端的歌唱，饱含秩序的美好。最后一台秩序唱机在帝皇战争中损坏，唱片上厚厚的积灰似在抗议那无声的时光。
The Beyond the Sky Choir lost their faith when Ena the Order was absorbed by Xipe. The once-solemn chords fell silent and the stars turned mute. Only a few records, made by the Choir's devoted audiences remain in this world today. When these records are placed within specific phonographs, you will hear songs from the end of the universe, sounds that contain the beauty of Order. The last Phonograph of Order was destroyed in the Emperor's War, and now the thick layer of dust on the records are protests to that soundless era.
万象无常骰 Entropic Die
万象无常骰曾在宇宙中极为常见，造成无数微小但邪恶的混乱。它的使用方法是这样的：手掌紧紧握住骰子，默念任意一句有意义的话，想着你最想吃的食物同时将骰子掷出。某一面向上时你会得到意外之财，某一面向上时你会收获美好的爱情，但更多面的结局是疾病、霉运、诅咒和终生相伴的梅雨。尽管如此，仍有许多人热衷于投掷万象无常骰，并快乐地宣称这不过是假面愚者的一个玩笑。
Entropic Dice are common in the universe and cause countless tiny but malevolent disturbances. To use it, you grab the die tightly and think of any meaningful sentence in your head, then as you throw the die, think about the food you want to eat the most. You will receive unexpected wealth if the die lands on a certain number and wonderful love on another number, but the ends you will meet for other numbers include illness, bad luck, curses, and lifelong rain. Despite this, many people still love to play with these dice, and happily declare that these items are just a joke made by the Masked Fools.
闪耀的偏方三八面骰 Shining Trapezohedron Die
这枚骰子的各面并不规则，内部有奇异的光彩肆意流转，传说封印着恐怖而不可名状的邪神，必须避免在无光的环境下与之接触。过去有人不相信上述传说，执意在黑暗中与骰子共处一室，却发现骰子自身的光华无法遮蔽。由此产生了著名的「闪耀偏方三八面骰悖论」：你没法证明没法证明的事情。
This die has irregular sides and a wondrous light that twirls unrestrained within it. It is said to be the seal of a horrible and indescribable evil god, and one must avoid contact with it in dark places at all costs. Some people did not believe in the above myth and insisted on staying in a dark room with the die, only to find that the light within the die itself cannot be blocked out. That is how the famous Shining Trapezohedron Die Paradox came to be — You cannot prove something that cannot be proven.
存护火漆 Sealing Wax of Preservation
颓唐的自灭者中流传着一个说法：即宇宙万物并无意义，人类在星神眼里亦不值一提。如果星神当真凌驾众生，高高在上，又怎会在乎凡人的爱恨苦乐？沉眠无相者Ⅸ的存在就是明证。为了向自灭者证明星神在乎，混沌医师结合秘学僧侣的巫神术制造了星神火漆，据说盖下这枚火漆，就会遥遥吸引对应星神跨越时空的瞥视——目前还没有成功案例，不过，确实有些自灭者盖下火漆后，重拾了对宇宙、星神及其它一切的信心。
There is a saying amongst the dejected Self-Annihilators that the universe has no purpose and humans are nothing in the eyes of the Aeons. If the Aeons truly stand above all lifeforms and rule supreme, then why would they care about the everyday concerns of mortals? The existence of the sleeping and shapeless IX is proof of that. To show the Self-Annihilators that the Aeons do care, the Doctors of Chaos combined the demon god crafts of the occult monks to create the Sealing Wax of Aeons. It is said that stamping with this Sealing Wax will attract a glimpse from the corresponding Aeon from across space and time — There are no successful examples yet, but some Self-Annihilators did regain their faith in the universe, Aeons, and everything else after stamping with this sealing wax.

乱七八糟的代码 Corrupted Code
没有缩进，换行随意，连变量和函数名都是不知所云的缩写…它是如此丑陋，以至于你无法用肉眼确认是否存在错误。
There are random line breaks, no indentation, and even the names of variants and functions are incomprehensible abbreviations... It's so ugly to the point that you can't proofread it with the naked eye.

碎星芳饵 Shattered Star Bait
在黄昏战争前，混沌星云膨胀所产生的爆炸碎屑可以作为饵料，其特有的宇宙尘埃芳香能够吸引到古兽前来觅食。但在这场覆界浩劫之后，「碎星芳饵」似乎失去了其原有作用，无论学者如何研究改造饵料，都再没有人能够成功寻得古兽身影。
Before the Dusk Wars, the exploded fragments born out of the expansion of disordered nebulas could be used as lures, and their unique aroma of cosmic dust could attract Leviathans to feed on them. However, the Shattered Star Bait seems to have lost its original effectiveness after that catastrophic disaster. No matter how much scholars researched and modified the lure, no one was ever able to glimpse the form of the Leviathans again.
湮灭烛剪 Obliteration Wick Trimmer
如果用这把烛剪剪断烛芯，愤怒的反物质火焰反而会将蜡烛点燃，粒子碰撞下整个蜡烛会在燃烧数秒后立刻湮灭。如果用剪刀划过你的皮肤，则会立刻发生能量逸散反应，它触碰过的部分都会立刻化成负粒子在躯体中震荡，接着四散逃逸。
If this candle wick trimmer is used to cut a wick, the angry anti-matter flames will ignite the candle, and the entire candlestick will be obliterated within seconds under the intense particle collisions. Exothermic reactions will be immediately triggered if this trimmer grazes your skin. Any parts of the body that the trimmer touches will instantly turn into antiprotons, reverberate throughout the body, and then scatter.
虫网 Insect Web
武装考古学派曾几次报导在野外遇到的危险经历，他们在洞巢深处遇到铺天盖地的虫网，粘着衰败的虫蜕、数以万计的虫泡以及各类分泌物，如果不慎触碰很可能会感染寄生幼虫。为将资料交由博识学会进行研究，曾有被寄生的武装考古学派成员咬牙从自己臂下剜出幼虫，学界皆对此举赞叹不已、彻夜研究，最后得出结论：它们很可能是虫皇塔伊兹育罗斯繁育的后代子嗣。
The Armed Archaeologists had repeatedly reported on the dangers they met in the wild. They had encountered a never-ending stretch of insect webbings deep inside a nest, with the decaying shed skins of worms, tens of thousands of egg sacs, and various secretions stuck to it. Touching this web carries a high risk of becoming infected by the parasitic larvae. Once, a parasitized Armed Archaeologist steeled themselves and sliced out larvae from underneath the skin of their arm with a knife in order to deliver data to the Intelligentsia Guild for research purposes. The academic world gave this act high praises and devoted much research into it, coming to the conclusion that these creatures are very likely the descendants of Tayzzyronth, the Imperator Insectorum.
天使型谢债发行机 Angel-type I.O.U. Dispenser
星际和平公司业务巩固部推出的谢债发行机，打开外壳后会通过电子波粒聚象成天使计数器，公司同时推出了多种型号，包括腕戴型号与助眠抱枕型号，客户使用它时需定期投喂金币，谢债周期结束后将获得数倍收益，本质上是个投资产品。
A debt dispenser distributed by the Business Consolidation Department of the Interastral Peace Corporation. Once the outer shell is opened, it will condense into an angel-shaped counter through electron particle-wave projection. The IPC simultaneously produced many types of this item, including ones that can be worn on the wrist or in the shape of hug pillows that act as sleep aids. When using it, the client needs to periodically feed it Gold Coins, and will receive returns many times higher than the principal at the end of the debt cycle. In essence, it is an investment product.
换境桂冠 Laurel Crown of Planar Shifts
每个星系中最智慧的头脑获得博识学会的认可后，在其王国灵性典仪上可被授予换境桂冠，桂冠树叶取自掉落的介子衰变叶片，冠底用量子光束绑为树枝状编织而成，被认可之人戴上它后，将感到自己身处宇宙不同境界之中。
After the most intelligent minds from each star system are acknowledged by the Intelligentsia Guild, they could be granted the Laurel Crown of Planar Shifts at the Imperial Sentience Ceremony. The leaves of the laurel crown are made of leaves of decayed mesons, and the crown itself is woven in the shape of branches using quantum beams. After the acknowledged one puts it on, they will feel that they exist in a different plane of the universe.
时空棱镜 Space-Time Prism
被做成奶酪外型的多面棱镜，每一个小孔都是单独镜面，被不同棱面照射到会产生不同效果，部分参与实验者被棱面照射后身体被放大或缩小，而部分参与实验者被照射后身体与原来并无区别，却无一例外接收了不属于自己的记忆，他们患上虚构记忆症，并认为在棱面中看到了星神浮黎谜样的面容。
A multifaceted prism made in the shape of cheese. Every hole is an individual surface, and reflections from each prism surface produce a different effect. Some participants in experiments have their bodies physically enlarged or reduced after being reflected in the prism. Meanwhile, other participants have no bodily alterations, but instead receive memories not of their own. They become diagnosed with fictmemoria, and claim that they saw the enigmatic face of the Aeon Fuli in the prism.

万识囊 Omniscient Capsule
博识学会中有一群人认为科学与魔法本为一体。发达的科学即是魔法，严谨的魔法则是科学。他们从远古的奇幻传说中汲取灵感，制造了「万识囊」——一种轻巧的便携储物装置。在博识学会的构想中，万识囊最终将连接向一个个独立的半位面，拥有无限的空间，而不是如今所使用的超距折叠技术……他们仍在努力。
There is a group in the Intelligentsia Guild that believes science was originally the same as magic, that advanced science is magic and rigorous magic is science. They drew inspiration from ancient fantastic mythologies and created the Omniscient Capsule, a light-weight and convenient storage gadget. The Intelligentsia Guild planned for the Omniscient Capsule to ultimately lead to independent demiplanes, thus obtaining infinite space beyond the advanced spatial compression technologies currently in use... And they are still trying.
卜筮咕咕钟 Divination Cuckoo Clock
这只咕咕钟会在每天凌晨时分吐出一张写有诗句的纸条，所有的句子都由远古时代数学体系名词组成。有人认为纸条上写的一定是对未来的预言，并称自己已经快要成功破译，但它却突然凭空消失。预见未来的可能性本身就已价值连城，所有人都企盼它再一次流通在市场，那时候星系中所有的财富都会向它涌流——也有人觉得它只是一只被设置为擅长写诗的酸臭咕咕钟。
Every day at dawn, this cuckoo clock will spit out a piece of paper with poetry written on it. All the sentences in the poems are composed of jargon from ancient mathematical systems. Some believe these poems to be prophetic and claim to be close to deciphering them, only for the clock to suddenly disappear. The possibility of foretelling the future is already priceless, and everyone is hoping for the clock to once again be circulated in the market. If that ever happened, all the riches of the universe would pour towards the clock — But there are also those who think it is only an artistic cuckoo clock designed to be good at writing poems.
黑森林咕咕钟 Black Forest Cuckoo Clock
第二次机械危机结束后，大量机器人陷入应激状态，对一切可能发酵的矛盾十分敏感。一道流言称机械生命将带来最终的灾厄，于是立刻引起众机器人的重视，成立远征队三次涉猎未被开辟的陆地，他们到达陆地最南端的岛屿，在一片被笼罩在黑暗中的森林中揪出了制造流言机的罪魁祸首——躲在山中研究邪恶科技的工匠大师。
After the end of the Second Machine Crisis, many robots became very anxious and were sensitive to any possible conflict. A rumor claiming that mechanical lifeforms will bring about the final disaster immediately drew the attention of all robots, and they formed an expedition team to scout unexplored lands three times. They reached the island at the southernmost tip of the land and dragged out the rumor's creator from a forest enveloped in utter darkness — A master artisan who hid in the mountains to study evil technology.
永动咕咕钟 Perpetual Motion Cuckoo Clock
自从#76螺丝咕姆为机械生命争取来之不易的和平后，螺丝星迎来了第二次工业复兴运动，无数发明家层出不穷，他们创造诅咒机、概率机与糖果守卫，并热衷于研究七大不可思议课题，「永动」作为排行第二的课题被机械生命热衷，而螺丝星排行第十九的发明大师在生命的最后向大家展示了自己的永动咕咕钟——它的作品将利用阿基米利螺旋能量永不止熄，但发明大师却在得到莫大殊荣后亲手终止了自己的生命，原因不明。
After Screwllum, #76 member of the Genius Society, gained a hard-won peace for mechanical lifeforms, Planet Screwllum welcomed a Second Industrial Revolution. Countless inventors created curse machines, probability calculators, and candy guards, and passionately researched topics on the Seven Great Mysteries. As the topic ranking second amongst all, "Perpetual Motion" was loved by mechanical lifeforms. A great inventor, ranked nineteenth in Planet Screwllum, presented to the public their own Perpetual Motion Cuckoo Clock at the end of their life — This fine work used the Archimeles Spiral Energy to keep itself perpetually in motion, but the great inventor ended their own life for no apparent reason after receiving supreme honors for their creation.
朋克洛德精神 Punklorde Mentality
生命只是一场游戏——对于赛博世界「朋克洛德」的一众黑客，这句玩笑并非戏言。他们游走于网络空间，用名为以太编辑的技术改写现实，将人生编写成一场宏大的游戏。偶有天才之中的天才，得以飞向星球之外，将广袤的银河当作新手村外的第二片舞台。这张卡带记录了某位传奇黑客的故事，他的一生始于朋克洛德的地下水库，终于巡海游侠的簇拥之中。据说那场葬礼安静、无声，只有一张游戏卡带静躺于棺木之上，为一位黑客的结局落下「通关」的注脚。
Life is just a game — This sentence is no mere jest for hackers from the cyberworld Punklorde. They traverse the internet and use a technology known as aether editing to alter reality, making life into a great game. Occasionally, the cream of the crop among them gets to soar away from the planet and use the vast Cosmos as the second stage beyond the tutorial area. This cassette tape records the story of a legendary hacker. His life began in Punklorde's underground water reservoirs and ended in the company of the Galaxy Rangers. It is said that the funeral was a quiet one, with only a game cassette silently lying atop the coffin, serving as a footnote of "Finished the Game" at the hacker's final rites.
信标着色剂 Beacon Coloring Paste
信标着色剂的强烈色彩与视觉刺激使星际救援队极易发现它所绘制的救援图案。它的发明者乃是一位画技卓绝的无名客。该无名客曾因航行事故受困于一片蛮荒的无人星区，借由白矮星碎片的边角料，他最终调制出了救援史上殊为伟大的信标着色剂。
The bright, visually stimulating colors of the Beacon Coloring Paste allow the Galactic Rescue Team to easily spot signs written with it. It was invented by a Nameless who possessed great artistic abilities. This Nameless once experienced a flight incident and was trapped in a barren and desolate star system. In the end, with the use of scraps from a white dwarf star fragment, he was able to produce the most magnificent item in the history of search and rescue — the Beacon Coloring Paste.
公司咕咕钟 IPC Cuckoo Clock
公司最初的零号咕咕钟，代表着咕咕钟计划的启动。很多人都非常好奇咕咕钟计划究竟为何而诞生——路易斯•弗莱明声称这是出于对存护星神克里珀的追随，需要保护公司来之不易的存在。他在演讲中表示星际和平公司虽然已是宇宙金融主宰，但仍需保持对终末灾厄的警惕，继而他一手创造咕咕钟系列，旨在收集这位星神的相关讯息，严防公司在未来星河历程中任何一点破产或解散的可能性。
The IPC's initial Prototype Cuckoo Clock represents the beginning of Operation Cuckoo Clock. Many are curious why Operation Cuckoo Clock was conceived — Louis Fleming declared that the worship of Qlipoth, Aeon of Preservation, means the IPC needs to protect its hard-won presence. In his speech, he stated that while the Interastral Peace Corporation is now the master of the universe's finances, it still needs to remain vigilant against the catastrophe of Finality. That is why he advocated the creation of the cuckoo clock series to collect information regarding that Aeon, meticulously removing any possibility of the IPC becoming bankrupt or disbanded in its future cosmic journey.
机械咕咕钟 Mechanical Cuckoo Clock
第二次鲁珀特之乱后，公司一度计划对全宇宙的机械生命进行残酷的灭绝。所幸在该计划尚未通过之时，#76螺丝咕姆被博识尊选中加入天才俱乐部的消息传到了公司的耳中。为了向新的天才示好，公司制造了这台机械咕咕钟作为礼物。以如今的眼光看来，这礼物也太过平平无奇——但那可是一个机械生命遭到迫害的年代。机械咕咕钟的诞生本身，就是和平的象征。
After the Second Rubert Rebellion, the IPC had once planned a brutal extermination of all mechanical life across the Cosmos. Fortunately, before the plan was passed, the IPC heard that #76 Screwllum was selected by Nous to join the Genius Society. The IPC then made this mechanical cuckoo clock as a gift to appease the new genius. This gift is very unremarkable in today's view, but that was an era when mechanical beings were persecuted. The birth of the mechanical cuckoo clock itself is a symbol of peace.
分裂银币 Silver Coin of Discord
星际和平公司的技术部门善于挖掘具有商业潜力的产品，在星际通信网络刚被建立时，联络天线供不应求，公司很快意识到星际市场中潜在的需求，便想出一条好点子：银的延展性极佳，一克便能拉成数尺的联络天线，于是某位研究员研造出分裂银币，令银币不停分裂数量剧增，又被公司熔铸成天线出口各个星系，极大地推动了星系间的交流。
The Technology Division of the Interastral Peace Corporation is adept at unearthing products with commercial potential. When the interstellar communication network was just being established and the supply of antennas fell short of demand, the IPC quickly recognized the latent need for this item in the cosmic market. An ingenious plan was born: Since silver's exceptional malleability allowed it to be stretched from one gram into yards of antenna, a researcher devised a Silver Coin of Discord that split itself infinitely, dramatically increasing the quantity of silver available to meet demands. The IPC then melted these coins into antennas and exported them throughout various star systems, enormously advancing interplanetary communications.
家族缘结 Family Ties
有出逃者称自己曾因打开奇怪的匣子获得一枚家族缘结，误入信仰「同谐」希佩的家族聚会，他描述自己见到了前所未有的画面：群星意志彼此相连，拧成一股绳结。在家族缘结下，人们睁大双眼、面露微笑，他们的表情惊人一致，并互相看着彼此。当他发出疑问时，大堂内数千人同时看向他，并异口同声发出了同样的声音——「欢迎。」出逃者立刻毛骨悚然，最后，为谋生存，他只好同样睁大双眼、面露微笑。
An escapee reported that he had acquired a Family Ties after opening a peculiar box, and inadvertently entered a gathering of The Family that venerates Xipe the Harmony. He described witnessing an unprecedented scene: The will of numerous heavenly bodies were intertwined, coiling into a single bound knot. Under Family Ties, people open their eyes wide, their faces etched with eerie smiles, staring at one another with identical expressions. When he voiced a question at the scene, everyone in the grand hall simultaneously shifted their gaze towards him and spoke with the same voice — "Welcome." The escapee was instantly unnerved, and, in a desperate bid for survival, he too held his eyes wide, his face plastered with the same smile.
黑洞之阱 Black Hole Trap
星系中时空曲率最大的地方曾出现疑似「虚无」星神的巨影，祂的影子乃是层层迷雾，曾有学者认为自己得到启示，为追随那道晦暗丢下一切，奋不顾身前往其中，再没有回来过。学界主流观点认为这是有暗地势力刻意布置的陷阱，但据探测，此处确有不同寻常的隐秘能量流动，其原因未知。
The places where the space-time curvature are most extreme are suspected to be locations cast in the vast shadow of the Aeon of Nihility. However, as THEIR presence is shrouded in mist and mystery, there have been many a scholar who thought they have received revelations from the Aeon, causing them to leave all behind to seek Nihility's gloom without giving thought or concern to their own safety. In the end, none of them ever returned. It is a common belief among mainstream academic circles that this is a trap intentionally set by hidden powers, but according to survey data, there truly seems to be some kind of unknown energy flowing through these parts for reasons unfathomed.
星际大乐透 Interastral Big Lotto
如何令一个商业模式持续运作下去？在银河大乐透广获好评之后，星际和平公司的业务巩固部接棒奥斯瓦尔多•施耐德的产品远见，出售了星际大乐透，他们祈愿它同样能够获得成功，并为此打造了八十六条配套产业链一并推广——虽然公司打造的代言人「大乐透女神」宝乐思•梅丽在此后因不明原因身亡，但更多信用点最终涌入了星际和平公司！
How do you make a business model last? After getting rave reviews for their Cosmic Big Lotto, the Interastral Peace Corporation's Business Consolidation Department followed Oswaldo Schneider's product vision and put the Interastral Big Lotto on the market, hoping that it would bring them success as well. They even connected eighty-six complementary industrial production chains and promoted them as a single entity. However, although the "Lotto Goddess" Beatrice Mellanine the IPC wished to develop as their spokesperson for their product perished due to reasons unknown, the IPC still reaped a windfall of credits in the end!
分裂咕咕钟 Fission Cuckoo Clock
收到「终末」的厄兆后，关于分裂灾变的咕咕钟突然出现在黑森林中，黑森林无机生命团块链因此发生了不明原因断裂。一位闯入黑森林的无名客却因对咕咕钟的狂热喜爱而将其收藏，并执意将之带去自己的故乡——分裂咕咕钟在旅途中不断分裂，最终将无名客的飞行器塞得满满当当。但因其并未在有限时间内参悟分裂咕咕钟不停分裂的现象预示何物，他在星际旅行的半路被虫潮吞没。
After receiving an omen from the Finality, the Cuckoo Clocks connected to the cataclysm suddenly appeared in the Black Forest, causing blockchains of inorganic entities to break up for reasons unknown. A Nameless intruding in the forest, however, began collecting the clocks for reasons related to passion and was determined to bring the clocks back home with them. The Fission Cuckoo Clock constantly split during the journey, and in the end, the ship of the Nameless was filled to the brim. However, due to not comprehending the hints given by emerging phenomena resulting from constantly splitting the Fission Cuckoo Clock within the allotted time, the Nameless was devoured by the swarm halfway through their interstellar voyage.

天才俱乐部普通八卦 Typical Genius Society Gossip
「黑塔情商低下，螺丝咕姆则需要学习更多有机生命的常识！」俱乐部粉丝群总对天才们议论纷纷，他们围绕斯蒂芬•劳艾德的真实年龄争论不下，有人认为他是中年男士，有人则坚称他是孩童。纷杂议论中，粉丝提出这样一件趣事：曾有传言称天才俱乐部里的「科学怪人」是位男性，没想到她不仅是位女科学家，并且气质脱俗。于是他们吸取经验，抛出了新的问题：斯蒂芬•劳艾德的性别是真是伪？
"Herta's EQ is too low and Screwllum needs to learn more common knowledge regarding organics!" Fans of the Genius Society are always arguing over the various geniuses, and they often find themselves squabbling over things like Stephen Lloyd's actual age. Some believe he is a middle-aged man, while others maintain that he's just a child. In the chaos of their arguments, fans have brought forth an interesting anecdote to note: It is said that the being known as "Mad Scientist" among the members of the Genius Society was once rumored to be a man. No one expected a female scientist, let alone one possessed of refined manners. As such, the fans learned from this experience and posed a new question: Is Stephen Lloyd's gender also a fabrication?
混沌特效灵药 Tonic of Efficacious Chaos
混沌医师对无意义的反抗精神总令人感到十分没有意义，他们曾在混沌特效灵药中放入异问魔门牙、巴维鲁黏液、游荡恶魔的血液，最终再以心灵感应蜘蛛的额头触碰封缄瓶口。混沌医师相信该药对治疗病人的孤独有奇效，但病人服药后往往对医师的敌意更甚——它的副作用时常令自灭者望见「虚无之影」。
The Doctors of Chaos can't see the point when it comes to meaningless demonstrations of rebelliousness. They once placed the fang of an Inquisition Spirit, Baviru mucus, and the blood of a wandering devil within a Tonic of Efficacious Chaos before touching it to the head of a telepathic spider to seal the tonic's opening. The Doctors of Chaos believe that this tonic can work wonders when treating a patient's loneliness, but it also makes them grow increasingly hostile toward the doctors at the end of the process. Its side effects can commonly cause Self-Annihilators to behold the "Shadow of Nihility."
鲁珀特帝国机械齿轮 Rubert Empire Mechanical Cogwheel
#鲁珀特二世自称继承了天才俱乐部#27帝皇鲁珀特的记忆，并展开席卷寰宇的第二次反有机帝皇战争，战争期间生灵涂炭。在第二次反有机帝皇战争结束后，星际和平公司曾花费天价信用点，多次对#鲁珀特二世遗体进行鉴定，却最终得出骇人的结论：#鲁珀特二世为血肉之躯。
#Rubert II professed to have inherited the memories of Emperor Rubert, listed as Genius Society #27, and initiated the second cosmos-spanning anti-organic Emperor's War. With the war came terrible calamity, and at the end of the conflict, the IPC spent vast amounts of credits to repeatedly appraise #Rubert II's remains. This, however, led to a dreadful revelation: #Rubert II was a being of flesh and tissue.
龋齿星系模型 Cavity System Model
黑塔曾为一个遥远的故事收藏了一份模型：龋齿星系联邦政府总为不定期到来的区域充气糖果风暴焦头烂额，财务部门每个自然年都花费无数信用点对被侵蚀土壤进行修复。曾有一位无名客到达过此星球，并试图探索它的形状，在数月探索后发出惊呼：「宇宙是不规则的，就像个牙齿！」
Herta once collected a model for the sake of a faraway story she heard. The federal government of the Cavity System always found themselves irregularly hard-pressed by a storm of invading inflatable candies. Thus, their financial affairs department were forced to spend uncountable credits to resolve the damages inflicted upon their corroded soil each natural year. Once, there was a Nameless that passed by this planet, and they sought to suss out its shape, and after several months of exploration, they cried out in shock: "The universe is irregularly shaped, just like a tooth!"
愚者面具 Fool's Mask
假面愚者的面具象征着对「欢愉」的信仰，佩戴一份面具成为愚者在世界尽头酒馆集结时的入场凭证。它们质地厚重且色彩艳丽，笑容狂妄却笔触内敛，等待每份纵情的捉弄，附有假面愚者认证的虔诚——但好像都是从悲悼伶人的船上偷来的。
The mask of the Masked Fools is symbol toward their faith in the Elation, and wearing said mask is effectively an admission ticket when they gather at the tavern at the edge of the world. These masks are made of heavy material, are vibrant in color, and with a maniacal smile yet with surprisingly intricate brushstrokes, as if waiting for each playful prank. They bear the devout certification of the Masked Fools, but it seems like they were all stolen from the ship of the Mourning Actors.
虚构机兵 Illusory Automaton
虚构史学家所虚构的机兵群体，据传其被制造的目的是实现批量、高效的虚构，表征为各种颜色的烟雾；但因虚构史学家对历史文档的管理习惯不佳，最终机兵群体通过阅读秘密得知了自身的被虚构性，并提出了质疑：虚构史学家本身是否也是被虚构的？
Automatons fabricated by the History Fictionologists are rumored to have been made to create a large amount of high-quality fabrications that can be symbolically understood as a highly efficient and multicolored smokescreen. However, due to the History Fictionologists' poor habits when handling their own historical documentations, the automatons eventually discovered their own illusory design by reading such classified texts, and furthermore called another matter into question: Could the History Fictionologists themselves be fabrications as well?
人造陨石球 Man-Made Meteorite
在同一世纪内，同一颗星球上同时诞生了三名被智识星神瞥视的天才——#7柏环、#8拉姆和#9克莱恩，因此该时代被称为「黄金年代」。据传三人间曾展开一场爱情喜剧，在此期间天才俱乐部#9克莱恩曾制作一枚人造陨石球送给#7柏环，陨石球表面坐落着由其复刻的「博识之眼」。
Within the span of a century, three geniuses who drew the gaze of the Erudition Aeon were born on the same planet. They were Bohdan #7, Lambda #8, and Klein #9. Hence, this epoch was known as the "Golden Age." Rumor has it that something of a romantic comedy unfolded between the trio, as during this time, Klein — #9 of Genius Society — once created a man-made meteorite for #7, Bohdan, and upon the meteorite's surface existed a replica of the Eye of Erudition.
塔拉毒火焰 Thalan Toxi-Flame
天才俱乐部#55余清涂热爱为鸡尾酒起些花哨的名字，这其中或许暗含秘辛——正如塔拉毒火焰的名字，它即为七百七十四种剧毒鸡尾酒之一。有记载在尔特勒克西亚星系，塔拉毒火焰曾作为最佳口味鸡尾酒一度畅销，每一位品尝过塔拉毒火焰的居民都不再有机会讲述它的口味。嗅觉敏锐的皮皮西人却在此后乘胜追击，于银河中推广了塔拉奇火焰、塔拉毒水焰和塔拉不毒火焰等多款仿制品——安全无害，不含酒精。
Yu Qingtu, Genius Society's #55, has a predilection for giving cocktails gaudy names. Some among them might even have names with special implications, connected to stories known only to a few — stories such as the Thalan Toxi-Flame, which exists on record as one of the 774 most toxic cocktails. Records show that in the Aterlexian System, the Thalan Toxi-Flame was once extremely popular among the locals, with each of the locals that sampled its taste no longer able to describe the flavors thereafter. The Pepeshi people, imbued with acute olfactory senses, would use their understanding of the beverage to their benefit and introduced other counterfeit drinks such as the Thalan Mysti-Flame, the Thalan Hydro-Flame, and the Thalan Detoxi-Flame to the cosmos, with each of them being entirely harmless and alcohol-free.
粉红冲撞 The Pinkest Collision
天才俱乐部#55余清涂的音乐品味不俗，她与阮•梅私交甚好，曾在自己最爱的古琥珀纪乐曲中选取亮眼的名字制成饮品送给阮•梅；余清涂所调制的特饮粉红冲撞被证明无毒，但一位调酒师曾夜以继日研究它的配方，试图证明其中有数种虫类尸体：虫类孢子、甲壳以及磷粉——他判断该酒可能有致幻效果。
Yu Qingtu, Genius Society's #55, has good taste in music. On account of her fantastic friendship with Ruan Mei, she once made a drink — to which she gave an eye-catching name taken from the title of her favorite ancient Amber Era music — as a gift to the other woman. The drink Yu Qingtu concocted, named the Pinkest Collision, was proven to be non-toxic, but a mixologist once spent days trying to recreate its formula, seeking to prove that the beverage was made from various insect carcasses, insect spores, carapaces, and phosphorous — he concluded that this drink may possess hallucinogenic qualities.
繁育火漆 Sealing Wax of Propagation
颓唐的自灭者中流传着一个说法：即宇宙万物并无意义，人类在星神眼里亦不值一提。如果星神当真凌驾众生，高高在上，又怎会在乎凡人的爱恨苦乐？沉眠无相者Ⅸ的存在就是明证。为了向自灭者证明星神在乎，混沌医师结合秘学僧侣的巫神术制造了星神火漆，据说盖下这枚火漆，就会遥遥吸引对应星神跨越时空的瞥视——目前还没有成功案例，不过，确实有些自灭者盖下火漆后，重拾了对宇宙、星神及其它一切的信心。
There is a saying amongst the dejected Self-Annihilators that the universe has no purpose and humans are nothing in the eyes of the Aeons. If the Aeons truly stand above all lifeforms and rule supreme, then why would they care about the everyday concerns of mortals? The existence of the sleeping and shapeless IX is proof of that. To show the Self-Annihilators that the Aeons do care, the Doctors of Chaos combined the demon god crafts of the occult monks to create the Sealing Wax of Aeons. It is said that stamping with this Sealing Wax will attract a glimpse from the corresponding Aeon from across space and time — There are no successful examples yet, but some Self-Annihilators did regain their faith in the universe, Aeons, and everything else after stamping with this sealing wax.

降维骰子 Dimension Reduction Dice
九枚六面骰组成了这个奇特的三角体，它能对自身进行持续不断的降维，从而以二维平面的方式存在于立体的世界里。谁以何种目的将其创造出来，目前还不清楚。
Nine six-sided dice make up this bizarre pyramidal device. It can continuously reduce the number of dimensions it occupies and exists in the 3-dimensional world as a purely 2-dimensional entity. No one knows who created it or why.
混沌云芝 Chaos Trametes
云朵是水汽聚合的产物，它们来得全无目的，散得毫无征兆，可人们注视着随机诞生的浮云时，却往往会看见想象之物现于天际——混沌医师相信世上没有绝对的虚无，一切看似无意义的存在都有其无法背离的含义。「混沌云芝」是他们最常使用的奇物道具，用来帮助那些颓唐的自灭者重建对生命价值的信心。
Clouds are born from a collection of moisture. They are created for no purpose, and dissipate without forewarning. However, when humans gaze upon the randomly created clouds, they often project their imagination onto these shapes. The Doctors of Chaos do not believe in absolute nihility. All that appears meaningless must have its own irrefutable purpose. Chaos Trametes is their most common Curio item, used to restore the confidence of despairing Self-Annihilators to have purpose in their lives again.
跃迁复眼 Warping Compound Eye
无名客分为两种，一种享受未知的神秘，另一种则偏向于有计划地开拓宇宙。后者利用阿基维利的力量制造了「跃迁复眼」，它的光线能率先跃迁至前方的星系，带回新世界的信息。对于那些孤身上路的无名客来说，跃迁复眼是必不可少的装备，它能防止无名客一头扎进被香涎干酪填满的世界里。
There are two types of Nameless. One type enjoys the mysteries of the unknown, while the other tends to trailblaze through the universe with a plan. The latter created the Warping Compound Eyes with the power of Akivili. The light of these gadgets can warp forward to the stars ahead of the user and bring back news from new worlds. For the Nameless who travels alone, Warping Compound Eyes are irreplaceable tools that prevent the Nameless from plunging headfirst into worlds filled with Ambergris cheese.
异木果实 Fruit of the Alien Tree
这颗形似心脏的果实来自于某株被药师赐福的大树，据说已有五十琥珀纪的历史。虽然不知它是否能使食用者长生不死，但显然它本身已是一种不死孽物。
This heart-shaped fruit comes from a tree blessed by Yaoshi and is supposedly 50 Amber Eras old. It is unclear whether the fruit would give immortality to those who eat it, but the tree itself is definitely an immortal abomination.
测不准匣 Casket of Inaccuracy
这只匣子的每一面都能够打开，本应重合的空间并不重合，由于这种独特的性质，你无法确定打开匣子后会发生什么，因此也并不建议在里面存放任何东西。
Each side of this casket can be opened. The spaces that should be overlapping are not overlapped. Due to this unique characteristic, no one can be sure of what will happen when the box is opened. Therefore, it is not recommended to store anything in it.
香涎干酪 Ambergris Cheese
曾有一个保姆机器人突发奇想，将丰饶香涎做成干酪，好满足小主人看似永无止境的食欲。不料香涎干酪竟自己生长起来，保姆机器人和主人开足马力，消化速度却也跟不上干酪的生长速度。于是他们只好求助路过的悲悼伶人，搭乘贡多拉逃去了别的星系。直到现在，银河中仍然有一个星系被美味的干酪塞得严严实实，一丁点空隙也没留下。这个故事很有教育意义：不要浪费粮食。
Once upon a time, a helper robot turned Ambergris of Abundance into cheese on a whim to satisfy its little master's seemingly never-ending appetite. Unexpectedly, the Ambergris Cheese started to multiply on its own. The helper robot and the master worked at full speed, but their digestion still could not keep up with how fast the cheese was multiplying. Therefore, they had to ask for help from a group of passing Mourning Actors and escaped to another world on a gondola. That one world in the cosmos is still stuffed full of delicious cheese to the day, packed so tight that not a single centimeter of space is left. The story teaches an important lesson about not wasting food.
福灵胶 Fortune Glue
运气是一种能力吗？也许；运气能够被改变吗？黑塔认为能。这位天才发明了「福灵胶」，将它涂抹在眼皮上，将获得整整24个系统时的好运。黑塔太空站的许多人欣喜若狂地试用这项发明，他们全都度过了波澜不惊的一天，这说明在动荡的世界上，能平凡地生活就已经很好运了。
Is luck an ability? Maybe. Can luck be changed? Herta believes it can. That genius invented the "Fortune Glue." Just apply it on your eyelids and you would get a full 24 system hours' worth of good luck. Many at Herta space station were ecstatic to try out this invention. They all had an uneventful day, which shows that it is already lucky to be able to live an ordinary life in a turbulent world.
永不停嘴的羊皮卷 The Parchment That Always Eats
在黑塔的奇物清单里，这张羊皮卷的危害等级被标注为极高。流落到黑塔空间站之前，它曾属于一位虚构史学家。羊皮卷以人类的历史为食，贪婪的舌头搅动着文明的集体潜意识，使之支离破碎。黑塔伪造了虚假的世界记忆供它吞噬，以此满足其无止境的饕餮欲望，不过总有一天，这张羊皮卷会识破天才的诡计。
In Herta's Curio list, the hazard level of this parchment is marked as extremely high. It once belonged to a History Fictionologist before ending up at the space station. The parchment feeds on the history of humanity, its greedy tongue churning the collective subconscious of civilization to pieces. Herta forged false memories of the world for it to devour to satisfy its endless gluttony. But one day, this parchment will see through the genius' tricks.
博士之袍 The Doctor's Robe
在第Ⅸ机关的秘密暗网，一件天价商品引来了无数竞拍者的关注。这件长袍据称曾属于天才俱乐部#64「原始博士」，拥有不可思议的力量。将它挂上暗网的是一位匿名用户，人们相信他是巡海游侠的一员，纷纷向之发问，但遗憾的是，直到长袍被拍下，这位神秘主人都没有作出任何回应。
An incredibly expensive item surfaced on Device IX's dark web one day and grabbed the attention of countless bidders. This robe was reportedly once owned by member #64 of the Genius Society, Dr. Primitive, and supposedly had incredible powers. The seller on the dark web was anonymous. People believed them to be a member of the Galaxy Rangers and kept sending them questions. Regrettably, this mysterious owner did not make any responses even after the item was sold.
俱乐部券 Society Ticket
天才俱乐部#56以利亚萨拉斯曾经有个美好的愿望：俱乐部里的天才们能够欢聚一堂，其乐融融地交流生活、爱情与梦想。为此，他发明了「俱乐部券」，并设计了一整套系统，保证即使在他死后，每位入会的新人都能得到这张能够即时传送到某个宴会位面的入场券。事实是，#56以后的每位会员都确实使用过「俱乐部券」，可时间从来没有重合过哪怕一次。
Genius Society #56, Elias Salas, once had a beautiful dream. He wished the geniuses of the Society could come together and happily converse about their lives, loves, and dreams. For that purpose, he invented "Society Tickets" and designed an entire system that ensured every new Society member would receive this ticket even after his death. This ticket would instantly teleport the user to a specific dimension decked with festivities. The truth is that every new member after #56 had indeed used their Society Ticket, but not a single one of them had used it at the same time as someone else.
信仰债券 Faith Bond
在星际和平公司中荣升P40级的员工，都将获得认购「信仰债券」的权利。它意味着路易斯•弗莱明对你的肯定，并附带了一项神圣无比的承诺：即在「琥珀王」命中注定的存护伟业之中将拥有你的一席之地。你的能力微乎其微，你的财富不足为道，你的信仰如同浩瀚星海中的一粒微尘。但一代又一代的「你」汇聚起来，终将拥有守护整个宇宙的力量。
Interastral Peace Corporation staff members who are promoted to level P40 gain the right to purchase Faith Bonds. These bonds indicate Louis Fleming's affirmation of the individual staff and come with a sacred vow: The staff now have a place in the Amber Lord's destined achievement of Preservation. One person's abilities amount to nothing, their wealth also amounts to nothing, and their faith is like a single particle of dust in the wide starry seas. However, generations of humanity will join together and ultimately obtain the power to protect the entire universe.
纯美之袍 Robe of The Beauty
纯美骑士纵横星海的时代，全宇宙都为他们的风采所倾倒；这群追寻着美的高贵骑士身着光耀照人的金银甲胄，肩披丝线与星光织就的华美战袍，在头盔之下，是俊美有如天神的绝代容颜。即使在「纯美」已然消逝的现代，那些曾经一睹骑士风华的人们依然相信伊德莉拉终将归来。
The entire universe bowed before the grace of the Knights of Beauty while they still traversed the skies. These noble knights who chased beauty wore resplendent gold and silver armor, and donned magnificent robes woven from silk and starlight. They had divinely beautiful features under their helmets. Even in the current era when the Beauty had already faded, those who had once witnessed the magnificence of the knights still believe Idrila will one day return.
分裂金币 Gold Coin of Discord
并非所有星球都对星际和平公司的商业帝国张开双臂表示欢迎，在不断扩张的星系版图之中，总有极个别的例外拒绝了公司的好意。「谢谢，」他们说，「但我们不需要信用点，我们完全有能力照顾自己。」面对如上情况时，公司的代表会耸耸肩，然后轻描淡写地摧毁该星球的金融体系根基——通常是黄金。
Not all planets opened their arms and welcomed the expansion of the Interastral Peace Corporation's commercial empire. While the cosmic map kept expanding, there were always rare exceptions that refused the IPC's beneficence. "Thank you," they stated, "but we don't need credits. We can look after ourselves just fine." The representative of the IPC would usually shrug at these statements, then casually destroy the root of that planet's commercial system — it is usually based on gold.
空无烛剪 Void Wick Trimmer
很少有人用这把烛剪处理蜡烛，却往往把它用在更残酷、更黑暗、更痛苦的地方。剪刀剪断的不是物质，而是生物心中的热量——被称为热情的动力。假如空无烛剪划过你的心脏，你将感受到的不是痛楚，而是冷漠。
Few would use this candle wick trimmer on real candles. This is usually reserved for purposes more cruel, dark, and painful. This trimmer does not cut anything material. It cuts the heat within a living organism's heart — the motivation named "passion." If the Void Wick Trimmer trims at your heart, you will feel no pain, only apathy.
天外重声大碟 Record from Beyond the Sky
当「秩序」太一被希佩吸收时，天外合唱班失去了信仰，那曾经庄严井然的和声也随之哑然，令群星沉默无言。仅有少数几张由爱好者录制的唱片至今仍流传于世，将它放入特制的唱机中，你将听见来自宇宙彼端的歌唱，饱含秩序的美好。最后一台秩序唱机在帝皇战争中损坏，唱片上厚厚的积灰似在抗议那无声的时光。
The Beyond the Sky Choir lost their faith when Ena the Order was absorbed by Xipe. The once-solemn chords fell silent and the stars turned mute. Only a few records, made by the Choir's devoted audiences remain in this world today. When these records are placed within specific phonographs, you will hear songs from the end of the universe, sounds that contain the beauty of Order. The last Phonograph of Order was destroyed in the Emperor's War, and now the thick layer of dust on the records are protests to that soundless era.
万象无常骰 Entropic Die
万象无常骰曾在宇宙中极为常见，造成无数微小但邪恶的混乱。它的使用方法是这样的：手掌紧紧握住骰子，默念任意一句有意义的话，想着你最想吃的食物同时将骰子掷出。某一面向上时你会得到意外之财，某一面向上时你会收获美好的爱情，但更多面的结局是疾病、霉运、诅咒和终生相伴的梅雨。尽管如此，仍有许多人热衷于投掷万象无常骰，并快乐地宣称这不过是假面愚者的一个玩笑。
Entropic Dice are common in the universe and cause countless tiny but malevolent disturbances. To use it, you grab the die tightly and think of any meaningful sentence in your head, then as you throw the die, think about the food you want to eat the most. You will receive unexpected wealth if the die lands on a certain number and wonderful love on another number, but the ends you will meet for other numbers include illness, bad luck, curses, and lifelong rain. Despite this, many people still love to play with these dice, and happily declare that these items are just a joke made by the Masked Fools.
闪耀的偏方三八面骰 Shining Trapezohedron Die
这枚骰子的各面并不规则，内部有奇异的光彩肆意流转，传说封印着恐怖而不可名状的邪神，必须避免在无光的环境下与之接触。过去有人不相信上述传说，执意在黑暗中与骰子共处一室，却发现骰子自身的光华无法遮蔽。由此产生了著名的「闪耀偏方三八面骰悖论」：你没法证明没法证明的事情。
This die has irregular sides and a wondrous light that twirls unrestrained within it. It is said to be the seal of a horrible and indescribable evil god, and one must avoid contact with it in dark places at all costs. Some people did not believe in the above myth and insisted on staying in a dark room with the die, only to find that the light within the die itself cannot be blocked out. That is how the famous Shining Trapezohedron Die Paradox came to be — You cannot prove something that cannot be proven.
存护火漆 Sealing Wax of Preservation
颓唐的自灭者中流传着一个说法：即宇宙万物并无意义，人类在星神眼里亦不值一提。如果星神当真凌驾众生，高高在上，又怎会在乎凡人的爱恨苦乐？沉眠无相者Ⅸ的存在就是明证。为了向自灭者证明星神在乎，混沌医师结合秘学僧侣的巫神术制造了星神火漆，据说盖下这枚火漆，就会遥遥吸引对应星神跨越时空的瞥视——目前还没有成功案例，不过，确实有些自灭者盖下火漆后，重拾了对宇宙、星神及其它一切的信心。
There is a saying amongst the dejected Self-Annihilators that the universe has no purpose and humans are nothing in the eyes of the Aeons. If the Aeons truly stand above all lifeforms and rule supreme, then why would they care about the everyday concerns of mortals? The existence of the sleeping and shapeless IX is proof of that. To show the Self-Annihilators that the Aeons do care, the Doctors of Chaos combined the demon god crafts of the occult monks to create the Sealing Wax of Aeons. It is said that stamping with this Sealing Wax will attract a glimpse from the corresponding Aeon from across space and time — There are no successful examples yet, but some Self-Annihilators did regain their faith in the universe, Aeons, and everything else after stamping with this sealing wax.

乱七八糟的代码 Corrupted Code
没有缩进，换行随意，连变量和函数名都是不知所云的缩写…它是如此丑陋，以至于你无法用肉眼确认是否存在错误。
There are random line breaks, no indentation, and even the names of variants and functions are incomprehensible abbreviations... It's so ugly to the point that you can't proofread it with the naked eye.

碎星芳饵 Shattered Star Bait
在黄昏战争前，混沌星云膨胀所产生的爆炸碎屑可以作为饵料，其特有的宇宙尘埃芳香能够吸引到古兽前来觅食。但在这场覆界浩劫之后，「碎星芳饵」似乎失去了其原有作用，无论学者如何研究改造饵料，都再没有人能够成功寻得古兽身影。
Before the Dusk Wars, the exploded fragments born out of the expansion of disordered nebulas could be used as lures, and their unique aroma of cosmic dust could attract Leviathans to feed on them. However, the Shattered Star Bait seems to have lost its original effectiveness after that catastrophic disaster. No matter how much scholars researched and modified the lure, no one was ever able to glimpse the form of the Leviathans again.
湮灭烛剪 Obliteration Wick Trimmer
如果用这把烛剪剪断烛芯，愤怒的反物质火焰反而会将蜡烛点燃，粒子碰撞下整个蜡烛会在燃烧数秒后立刻湮灭。如果用剪刀划过你的皮肤，则会立刻发生能量逸散反应，它触碰过的部分都会立刻化成负粒子在躯体中震荡，接着四散逃逸。
If this candle wick trimmer is used to cut a wick, the angry anti-matter flames will ignite the candle, and the entire candlestick will be obliterated within seconds under the intense particle collisions. Exothermic reactions will be immediately triggered if this trimmer grazes your skin. Any parts of the body that the trimmer touches will instantly turn into antiprotons, reverberate throughout the body, and then scatter.
虫网 Insect Web
武装考古学派曾几次报导在野外遇到的危险经历，他们在洞巢深处遇到铺天盖地的虫网，粘着衰败的虫蜕、数以万计的虫泡以及各类分泌物，如果不慎触碰很可能会感染寄生幼虫。为将资料交由博识学会进行研究，曾有被寄生的武装考古学派成员咬牙从自己臂下剜出幼虫，学界皆对此举赞叹不已、彻夜研究，最后得出结论：它们很可能是虫皇塔伊兹育罗斯繁育的后代子嗣。
The Armed Archaeologists had repeatedly reported on the dangers they met in the wild. They had encountered a never-ending stretch of insect webbings deep inside a nest, with the decaying shed skins of worms, tens of thousands of egg sacs, and various secretions stuck to it. Touching this web carries a high risk of becoming infected by the parasitic larvae. Once, a parasitized Armed Archaeologist steeled themselves and sliced out larvae from underneath the skin of their arm with a knife in order to deliver data to the Intelligentsia Guild for research purposes. The academic world gave this act high praises and devoted much research into it, coming to the conclusion that these creatures are very likely the descendants of Tayzzyronth, the Imperator Insectorum.

Once the outer shell is opened, it will condense into an angel-shaped counter through electron particle-wave projection. The IPC simultaneously produced many types of this item, including ones that can be worn on the wrist or in the shape of hug pillows that act as sleep aids. When using it, the client needs to periodically feed it Gold Coins, and will receive returns many times higher than the principal at the end of the debt cycle. In essence, it is an investment product.
换境桂冠 Laurel Crown of Planar Shifts
每个星系中最智慧的头脑获得博识学会的认可后，在其王国灵性典仪上可被授予换境桂冠，桂冠树叶取自掉落的介子衰变叶片，冠底用量子光束绑为树枝状编织而成，被认可之人戴上它后，将感到自己身处宇宙不同境界之中。

A multifaceted prism made in the shape of cheese. Every hole is an individual surface, and reflections from each prism surface produce a different effect. Some participants in experiments have their bodies physically enlarged or reduced after being reflected in the prism. Meanwhile, other participants have no bodily alterations, but instead receive memories not of their own. They become diagnosed with fictmemoria, and claim that they saw the enigmatic face of the Aeon Fuli in the prism.

万识囊 Omniscient Capsule
博识学会中有一群人认为科学与魔法本为一体。发达的科学即是魔法，严谨的魔法则是科学。他们从远古的奇幻传说中汲取灵感，制造了「万识囊」——一种轻巧的便携储物装置。在博识学会的构想中，万识囊最终将连接向一个个独立的半位面，拥有无限的空间，而不是如今所使用的超距折叠技术……他们仍在努力。
There is a group in the Intelligentsia Guild that believes science was originally the same as magic, that advanced science is magic and rigorous magic is science. They drew inspiration from ancient fantastic mythologies and created the Omniscient Capsule, a light-weight and convenient storage gadget. The Intelligentsia Guild planned for the Omniscient Capsule to ultimately lead to independent demiplanes, thus obtaining infinite space beyond the advanced spatial compression technologies currently in use... And they are still trying.
卜筮咕咕钟 Divination Cuckoo Clock
这只咕咕钟会在每天凌晨时分吐出一张写有诗句的纸条，所有的句子都由远古时代数学体系名词组成。有人认为纸条上写的一定是对未来的预言，并称自己已经快要成功破译，但它却突然凭空消失。预见未来的可能性本身就已价值连城，所有人都企盼它再一次流通在市场，那时候星系中所有的财富都会向它涌流——也有人觉得它只是一只被设置为擅长写诗的酸臭咕咕钟。
Every day at dawn, this cuckoo clock will spit out a piece of paper with poetry written on it. All the sentences in the poems are composed of jargon from ancient mathematical systems. Some believe these poems to be prophetic and claim to be close to deciphering them, only for the clock to suddenly disappear. The possibility of foretelling the future is already priceless, and everyone is hoping for the clock to once again be circulated in the market. If that ever happened, all the riches of the universe would pour towards the clock — But there are also those who think it is only an artistic cuckoo clock designed to be good at writing poems.
黑森林咕咕钟 Black Forest Cuckoo Clock
第二次机械危机结束后，大量机器人陷入应激状态，对一切可能发酵的矛盾十分敏感。一道流言称机械生命将带来最终的灾厄，于是立刻引起众机器人的重视，成立远征队三次涉猎未被开辟的陆地，他们到达陆地最南端的岛屿，在一片被笼罩在黑暗中的森林中揪出了制造流言机的罪魁祸首——躲在山中研究邪恶科技的工匠大师。
After the end of the Second Machine Crisis, many robots became very anxious and were sensitive to any possible conflict. A rumor claiming that mechanical lifeforms will bring about the final disaster immediately drew the attention of all robots, and they formed an expedition team to scout unexplored lands three times. They reached the island at the southernmost tip of the land and dragged out the rumor's creator from a forest enveloped in utter darkness — A master artisan who hid in the mountains to study evil technology.
永动咕咕钟 Perpetual Motion Cuckoo Clock
自从#76螺丝咕姆为机械生命争取来之不易的和平后，螺丝星迎来了第二次工业复兴运动，无数发明家层出不穷，他们创造诅咒机、概率机与糖果守卫，并热衷于研究七大不可思议课题，「永动」作为排行第二的课题被机械生命热衷，而螺丝星排行第十九的发明大师在生命的最后向大家展示了自己的永动咕咕钟——它的作品将利用阿基米利螺旋能量永不止熄，但发明大师却在得到莫大殊荣后亲手终止了自己的生命，原因不明。
After Screwllum, #76 member of the Genius Society, gained a hard-won peace for mechanical lifeforms, Planet Screwllum welcomed a Second Industrial Revolution. Countless inventors created curse machines, probability calculators, and candy guards, and passionately researched topics on the Seven Great Mysteries. As the topic ranking second amongst all, "Perpetual Motion" was loved by mechanical lifeforms. A great inventor, ranked nineteenth in Planet Screwllum, presented to the public their own Perpetual Motion Cuckoo Clock at the end of their life — This fine work used the Archimeles Spiral Energy to keep itself perpetually in motion, but the great inventor ended their own life for no apparent reason after receiving supreme honors for their creation.
朋克洛德精神 Punklorde Mentality
生命只是一场游戏——对于赛博世界「朋克洛德」的一众黑客，这句玩笑并非戏言。他们游走于网络空间，用名为以太编辑的技术改写现实，将人生编写成一场宏大的游戏。偶有天才之中的天才，得以飞向星球之外，将广袤的银河当作新手村外的第二片舞台。这张卡带记录了某位传奇黑客的故事，他的一生始于朋克洛德的地下水库，终于巡海游侠的簇拥之中。据说那场葬礼安静、无声，只有一张游戏卡带静躺于棺木之上，为一位黑客的结局落下「通关」的注脚。
Life is just a game — This sentence is no mere jest for hackers from the cyberworld Punklorde. They traverse the internet and use a technology known as aether editing to alter reality, making life into a great game. Occasionally, the cream of the crop among them gets to soar away from the planet and use the vast Cosmos as the second stage beyond the tutorial area. This cassette tape records the story of a legendary hacker. His life began in Punklorde's underground water reservoirs and ended in the company of the Galaxy Rangers. It is said that the funeral was a quiet one, with only a game cassette silently lying atop the coffin, serving as a footnote of "Finished the Game" at the hacker's final rites.
信标着色剂 Beacon Coloring Paste
信标着色剂的强烈色彩与视觉刺激使星际救援队极易发现它所绘制的救援图案。它的发明者乃是一位画技卓绝的无名客。该无名客曾因航行事故受困于一片蛮荒的无人星区，借由白矮星碎片的边角料，他最终调制出了救援史上殊为伟大的信标着色剂。
The bright, visually stimulating colors of the Beacon Coloring Paste allow the Galactic Rescue Team to easily spot signs written with it. It was invented by a Nameless who possessed great artistic abilities. This Nameless once experienced a flight incident and was trapped in a barren and desolate star system. In the end, with the use of scraps from a white dwarf star fragment, he was able to produce the most magnificent item in the history of search and rescue — the Beacon Coloring Paste.
公司咕咕钟 IPC Cuckoo Clock
公司最初的零号咕咕钟，代表着咕咕钟计划的启动。很多人都非常好奇咕咕钟计划究竟为何而诞生——路易斯•弗莱明声称这是出于对存护星神克里珀的追随，需要保护公司来之不易的存在。他在演讲中表示星际和平公司虽然已是宇宙金融主宰，但仍需保持对终末灾厄的警惕，继而他一手创造咕咕钟系列，旨在收集这位星神的相关讯息，严防公司在未来星河历程中任何一点破产或解散的可能性。
The IPC's initial Prototype Cuckoo Clock represents the beginning of Operation Cuckoo Clock. Many are curious why Operation Cuckoo Clock was conceived — Louis Fleming declared that the worship of Qlipoth, Aeon of Preservation, means the IPC needs to protect its hard-won presence. In his speech, he stated that while the Interastral Peace Corporation is now the master of the universe's finances, it still needs to remain vigilant against the catastrophe of Finality. That is why he advocated the creation of the cuckoo clock series to collect information regarding that Aeon, meticulously removing any possibility of the IPC becoming bankrupt or disbanded in its future cosmic journey.
机械咕咕钟 Mechanical Cuckoo Clock
第二次鲁珀特之乱后，公司一度计划对全宇宙的机械生命进行残酷的灭绝。所幸在该计划尚未通过之时，#76螺丝咕姆被博识尊选中加入天才俱乐部的消息传到了公司的耳中。为了向新的天才示好，公司制造了这台机械咕咕钟作为礼物。以如今的眼光看来，这礼物也太过平平无奇——但那可是一个机械生命遭到迫害的年代。机械咕咕钟的诞生本身，就是和平的象征。
After the Second Rubert Rebellion, the IPC had once planned a brutal extermination of all mechanical life across the Cosmos. Fortunately, before the plan was passed, the IPC heard that #76 Screwllum was selected by Nous to join the Genius Society. The IPC then made this mechanical cuckoo clock as a gift to appease the new genius. This gift is very unremarkable in today's view, but that was an era when mechanical beings were persecuted. The birth of the mechanical cuckoo clock itself is a symbol of peace.
三角滚奏器 Triangular Drum-roll Device
在「秩序」太一尚未陨落的时代，当一些星球取得惊异的文明进步时，会有清灵祥兆从远方传来，颂声如同神圣祝福，其中音阶并不止于八度音程，和声总能组合出新的调式，永不重复。天外合唱班崇拜这种能无限变化，却永在「秩序」之中的音律，便试图制造三角滚奏器来描摹其中的无限音阶。
In the age when Ena the Order still lived, extraordinary leaps in civilization on certain planets would be accompanied by pure and fortuitous hymns congratulating them from far away. These songs of praise resembled divine blessings and their melody were not limited to the form of the traditional octave, with their harmonies creating ever-new combinations, never duplicating. The Beyond the Sky Choir revered how this melody infinitely varied and yet always stayed within the realms of "Order," thus seeking to create a Triangular Drum-roll Device to replicate this infinite spectrum of notes.
分裂银币 Silver Coin of Discord
星际和平公司的技术部门善于挖掘具有商业潜力的产品，在星际通信网络刚被建立时，联络天线供不应求，公司很快意识到星际市场中潜在的需求，便想出一条好点子：银的延展性极佳，一克便能拉成数尺的联络天线，于是某位研究员研造出分裂银币，令银币不停分裂数量剧增，又被公司熔铸成天线出口各个星系，极大地推动了星系间的交流。
The Technology Division of the Interastral Peace Corporation is adept at unearthing products with commercial potential. When the interstellar communication network was just being established and the supply of antennas fell short of demand, the IPC quickly recognized the latent need for this item in the cosmic market. An ingenious plan was born: Since silver's exceptional malleability allowed it to be stretched from one gram into yards of antenna, a researcher devised a Silver Coin of Discord that split itself infinitely, dramatically increasing the quantity of silver available to meet demands. The IPC then melted these coins into antennas and exported them throughout various star systems, enormously advancing interplanetary communications.
破碎咕咕钟 Broken Cuckoo Clock
一位咕咕钟匠人偶然得见「末王」，她手中的钟在惊诧中摔落在地，于「末王」的过去破碎损毁。这位匠人后来加入了厄兆先锋，试图以咕咕钟来解读末王的预言。虽然她生平创造无数，却始终珍藏着这台破碎的咕咕钟。它破碎之时，匠人已经遇见末王；它破碎之时，末王却未遇见这位匠人。
A cuckoo clock craftmaster once encountered Terminus. The clock in her hand fell to the ground in her surprise, becoming shattered and broken in Terminus' past. The craftmaster later joined the Omen Vanguards, trying to use cuckoo clocks to interpret Terminus' prophecy. Although she went on to create countless more clocks in her life, she always treasured this broken cuckoo clock. She had already met Terminus when it broke. Terminus had yet to meet her when it broke.
家族缘结 Family Ties
有出逃者称自己曾因打开奇怪的匣子获得一枚家族缘结，误入信仰「同谐」希佩的家族聚会，他描述自己见到了前所未有的画面：群星意志彼此相连，拧成一股绳结。在家族缘结下，人们睁大双眼、面露微笑，他们的表情惊人一致，并互相看着彼此。当他发出疑问时，大堂内数千人同时看向他，并异口同声发出了同样的声音——「欢迎。」出逃者立刻毛骨悚然，最后，为谋生存，他只好同样睁大双眼、面露微笑。
An escapee reported that he had acquired a Family Ties after opening a peculiar box, and inadvertently entered a gathering of The Family that venerates Xipe the Harmony. He described witnessing an unprecedented scene: The will of numerous heavenly bodies were intertwined, coiling into a single bound knot. Under Family Ties, people open their eyes wide, their faces etched with eerie smiles, staring at one another with identical expressions. When he voiced a question at the scene, everyone in the grand hall simultaneously shifted their gaze towards him and spoke with the same voice — "Welcome." The escapee was instantly unnerved, and, in a desperate bid for survival, he too held his eyes wide, his face plastered with the same smile.
血锦之纪徽章 Medal of the Gloryblood Era
琥珀纪与联觉信标推广一百纪后，星际贸易持续发展，资源交换成为燃眉之急。一些星球跃升成为炙手可热的星际埠口，第二次繁荣来临——史称「血锦之纪」，持续近五百个琥珀纪。血锦之纪在晚期进入颓靡之势，然而即使是堪称浩劫的星际能源战争也未能耗尽第二次繁荣的辉煌成果。与此同时，「智识」博识尊突然中断了对宇宙奥秘的运算。
A hundred Amber Eras after the proliferation of the Amber Era system and the Synesthesia Beacon, interstellar trade continued to develop and resource exchange became a pressing matter. A few planets ascended to become bustling interstellar hubs, signaling the onset of the Second Prosperity termed the "Gloryblood Era." The Second Prosperity endured for nearly five hundred Amber Eras before entering a gradual decline, but not even the apocalyptic Interstellar Energy War could erase its resplendent achievements. At the same time, Nous the Erudition unexpectedly terminated their calculations regarding the mysteries of the universe.
黑洞之阱 Black Hole Trap
星系中时空曲率最大的地方曾出现疑似「虚无」星神的巨影，祂的影子乃是层层迷雾，曾有学者认为自己得到启示，为追随那道晦暗丢下一切，奋不顾身前往其中，再没有回来过。学界主流观点认为这是有暗地势力刻意布置的陷阱，但据探测，此处确有不同寻常的隐秘能量流动，其原因未知。
The places where the space-time curvature are most extreme are suspected to be locations cast in the vast shadow of the Aeon of Nihility. However, as THEIR presence is shrouded in mist and mystery, there have been many a scholar who thought they have received revelations from the Aeon, causing them to leave all behind to seek Nihility's gloom without giving thought or concern to their own safety. In the end, none of them ever returned. It is a common belief among mainstream academic circles that this is a trap intentionally set by hidden powers, but according to survey data, there truly seems to be some kind of unknown energy flowing through these parts for reasons unfathomed.
星际大乐透 Interastral Big Lotto
如何令一个商业模式持续运作下去？在银河大乐透广获好评之后，星际和平公司的业务巩固部接棒奥斯瓦尔多•施耐德的产品远见，出售了星际大乐透，他们祈愿它同样能够获得成功，并为此打造了八十六条配套产业链一并推广——虽然公司打造的代言人「大乐透女神」宝乐思•梅丽在此后因不明原因身亡，但更多信用点最终涌入了星际和平公司！
How do you make a business model last? After getting rave reviews for their Cosmic Big Lotto, the Interastral Peace Corporation's Business Consolidation Department followed Oswaldo Schneider's product vision and put the Interastral Big Lotto on the market, hoping that it would bring them success as well. They even connected eighty-six complementary industrial production chains and promoted them as a single entity. However, although the "Lotto Goddess" Beatrice Mellanine the IPC wished to develop as their spokesperson for their product perished due to reasons unknown, the IPC still reaped a windfall of credits in the end!
分裂咕咕钟 Fission Cuckoo Clock
收到「终末」的厄兆后，关于分裂灾变的咕咕钟突然出现在黑森林中，黑森林无机生命团块链因此发生了不明原因断裂。一位闯入黑森林的无名客却因对咕咕钟的狂热喜爱而将其收藏，并执意将之带去自己的故乡——分裂咕咕钟在旅途中不断分裂，最终将无名客的飞行器塞得满满当当。但因其并未在有限时间内参悟分裂咕咕钟不停分裂的现象预示何物，他在星际旅行的半路被虫潮吞没。
After receiving an omen from the Finality, the Cuckoo Clocks connected to the cataclysm suddenly appeared in the Black Forest, causing blockchains of inorganic entities to break up for reasons unknown. A Nameless intruding in the forest, however, began collecting the clocks for reasons related to passion and was determined to bring the clocks back home with them. The Fission Cuckoo Clock constantly split during the journey, and in the end, the ship of the Nameless was filled to the brim. However, due to not comprehending the hints given by emerging phenomena resulting from constantly splitting the Fission Cuckoo Clock within the allotted time, the Nameless was devoured by the swarm halfway through their interstellar voyage.

天才俱乐部普通八卦 Typical Genius Society Gossip
「黑塔情商低下，螺丝咕姆则需要学习更多有机生命的常识！」俱乐部粉丝群总对天才们议论纷纷，他们围绕斯蒂芬•劳艾德的真实年龄争论不下，有人认为他是中年男士，有人则坚称他是孩童。纷杂议论中，粉丝提出这样一件趣事：曾有传言称天才俱乐部里的「科学怪人」是位男性，没想到她不仅是位女科学家，并且气质脱俗。于是他们吸取经验，抛出了新的问题：斯蒂芬•劳艾德的性别是真是伪？
"Herta's EQ is too low and Screwllum needs to learn more common knowledge regarding organics!" Fans of the Genius Society are always arguing over the various geniuses, and they often find themselves squabbling over things like Stephen Lloyd's actual age. Some believe he is a middle-aged man, while others maintain that he's just a child. In the chaos of their arguments, fans have brought forth an interesting anecdote to note: It is said that the being known as "Mad Scientist" among the members of the Genius Society was once rumored to be a man. No one expected a female scientist, let alone one possessed of refined manners. As such, the fans learned from this experience and posed a new question: Is Stephen Lloyd's gender also a fabrication?
混沌特效灵药 Tonic of Efficacious Chaos
混沌医师对无意义的反抗精神总令人感到十分没有意义，他们曾在混沌特效灵药中放入异问魔门牙、巴维鲁黏液、游荡恶魔的血液，最终再以心灵感应蜘蛛的额头触碰封缄瓶口。混沌医师相信该药对治疗病人的孤独有奇效，但病人服药后往往对医师的敌意更甚——它的副作用时常令自灭者望见「虚无之影」。
The Doctors of Chaos can't see the point when it comes to meaningless demonstrations of rebelliousness. They once placed the fang of an Inquisition Spirit, Baviru mucus, and the blood of a wandering devil within a Tonic of Efficacious Chaos before touching it to the head of a telepathic spider to seal the tonic's opening. The Doctors of Chaos believe that this tonic can work wonders when treating a patient's loneliness, but it also makes them grow increasingly hostile toward the doctors at the end of the process. Its side effects can commonly cause Self-Annihilators to behold the "Shadow of Nihility."
鲁珀特帝国机械齿轮 Rubert Empire Mechanical Cogwheel
#鲁珀特二世自称继承了天才俱乐部#27帝皇鲁珀特的记忆，并展开席卷寰宇的第二次反有机帝皇战争，战争期间生灵涂炭。在第二次反有机帝皇战争结束后，星际和平公司曾花费天价信用点，多次对#鲁珀特二世遗体进行鉴定，却最终得出骇人的结论：#鲁珀特二世为血肉之躯。
#Rubert II professed to have inherited the memories of Emperor Rubert, listed as Genius Society #27, and initiated the second cosmos-spanning anti-organic Emperor's War. With the war came terrible calamity, and at the end of the conflict, the IPC spent vast amounts of credits to repeatedly appraise #Rubert II's remains. This, however, led to a dreadful revelation: #Rubert II was a being of flesh and tissue.
龋齿星系模型 Cavity System Model
黑塔曾为一个遥远的故事收藏了一份模型：龋齿星系联邦政府总为不定期到来的区域充气糖果风暴焦头烂额，财务部门每个自然年都花费无数信用点对被侵蚀土壤进行修复。曾有一位无名客到达过此星球，并试图探索它的形状，在数月探索后发出惊呼：「宇宙是不规则的，就像个牙齿！」
Herta once collected a model for the sake of a faraway story she heard. The federal government of the Cavity System always found themselves irregularly hard-pressed by a storm of invading inflatable candies. Thus, their financial affairs department were forced to spend uncountable credits to resolve the damages inflicted upon their corroded soil each natural year. Once, there was a Nameless that passed by this planet, and they sought to suss out its shape, and after several months of exploration, they cried out in shock: "The universe is irregularly shaped, just like a tooth!"
《鸡窝头侦探》 Tousled Detective
星际和平公司曾制作了大量的综艺节目碟片，皆因销量惨淡而被传统项目部收纳。根据各「养老星」埠口运输车队的街头流言，传统项目部亲切和蔼的老主管在田对其中一份《鸡窝头侦探》十分喜爱，曾循环播放了六十三系统时；众职员怀疑其中才华横溢的综艺侦探大明星，很可能让他看到了自己年轻时叱咤风云的过往。
The Interastral Peace Corporation once created a great many variety show disks that are now held by the Traditional Project Department due to poor sales. According to rumors from the transport fleet from the ports of the retirement planets, Arita, the amiable and kind old manager of the Traditional Project Department, was deeply interested in a show about a certain Tousled Detective. After replaying the show consecutively for 63 system hours, the staff suspected that maybe the talented variety show detective might have reminded him of his star-shaking past during the days of his youth.
愚者面具 Fool's Mask
假面愚者的面具象征着对「欢愉」的信仰，佩戴一份面具成为愚者在世界尽头酒馆集结时的入场凭证。它们质地厚重且色彩艳丽，笑容狂妄却笔触内敛，等待每份纵情的捉弄，附有假面愚者认证的虔诚——但好像都是从悲悼伶人的船上偷来的。
The mask of the Masked Fools is symbol toward their faith in the Elation, and wearing said mask is effectively an admission ticket when they gather at the tavern at the edge of the world. These masks are made of heavy material, are vibrant in color, and with a maniacal smile yet with surprisingly intricate brushstrokes, as if waiting for each playful prank. They bear the devout certification of the Masked Fools, but it seems like they were all stolen from the ship of the Mourning Actors.
邪恶机械卫星#900 Vile Mechanical Satellite #900
卡戎·塔尔金星系联盟通过生产两种类型的思想改变装置来维持经济运转，外界抵达该联盟皆需通过一位庞大智械生命的神经滑轨。据传卡戎·塔尔金文明与有机生命敌对——它们是典型的反有机文明，对待有机生命手腕狠辣，而其中尤以卫星#900最为邪恶。但它最终被当地人排挤在外，只因其自豪的机械外表在已将全体居民改造为有机伪装的卡戎·塔尔金星系联盟中格格不入。
The Charon-Targin System Alliance's economic operations are supported by the sale of their two types of thought-altering devices. Should the outside wish to reach the alliance, they must pass through the neural pathways of a titanic Intellitron life form. It is said that the Charon-Targin System Alliance is hostile to all organic life, and is a very typical anti-organic civilization in the ruthless tactics it employs against its foes. Of their many instruments of ruination, Satellite #900 stands among the vilest of them all. However, the satellite was ultimately disregarded by the denizens of the Charon-Targin Alliance due to its obvious and proud mechanical visage which integrated poorly with the populace who had taken to disguising themselves as organics.
纯美骑士精神 Spirit of the Knights of Beauty
最爱与纯美骑士打交道的派系恐怕是假面愚者，这些愚者时常拿骑士对伊德莉拉终将归来的信仰逗闷取乐，而高洁的骑士总是十分虔诚，固执地践行纯美的信仰。出于上述理由，悲悼伶人从骑士团的精神中获得了共情——他们收藏了纯美骑士在践行「纯美」时牺牲的一颗牙齿，它也如此美丽。
The faction that likes dealing with the Knights of Beauty the most are most likely the Masked Fools. These Fools like to amuse themselves by exploiting the knights' faith in the eventual return of Idrila, while the knights themselves remain ever-pious and obstinate practitioners in the ways of Beauty. Due to the reasons listed above, the Mourning Actors developed a sense of empathy for the knights from the spirit they demonstrated, and they collected a tooth sacrificed by the Knights of Beauty in their practice of seeking aesthetic perfection, with the tooth's desirability enduring even till the present.
虚构机兵 Illusory Automaton
虚构史学家所虚构的机兵群体，据传其被制造的目的是实现批量、高效的虚构，表征为各种颜色的烟雾；但因虚构史学家对历史文档的管理习惯不佳，最终机兵群体通过阅读秘密得知了自身的被虚构性，并提出了质疑：虚构史学家本身是否也是被虚构的？
Automatons fabricated by the History Fictionologists are rumored to have been made to create a large amount of high-quality fabrications that can be symbolically understood as a highly efficient and multicolored smokescreen. However, due to the History Fictionologists' poor habits when handling their own historical documentations, the automatons eventually discovered their own illusory design by reading such classified texts, and furthermore called another matter into question: Could the History Fictionologists themselves be fabrications as well?
一撮胡须火药 A Pinch of Bearded Gunpowder
相较石块、木料、黄金、超钛金属与货币，游牧矿工更热衷于挖掘「以太」。他们曾一度痴迷在矿地间用手指挖掘巨量「以太」的手感，但这种体验曾招来不幸：数名超巨型矿工终在不明区域被火药炸死，其间仅一位身材矮小的矿工得以幸存，它的胡须自此以后永远跳跃着一撮火焰。
Compared to currencies of stone, wood, gold, or supernium metals, the nomadic miners are more obsessed with the excavation of Aether. There was a period when they were infatuated with the sensation of digging vast quantities of Aether using their bare hands while in the mines, but these experiences brought calamity upon them. Several large-stature miners finally met their ends via exploding gunpowder in unknown areas, while only a short and small miner managed to survive. Its beard henceforth always flickered with a pinch of flame.
人造陨石球 Man-Made Meteorite
在同一世纪内，同一颗星球上同时诞生了三名被智识星神瞥视的天才——#7柏环、#8拉姆和#9克莱恩，因此该时代被称为「黄金年代」。据传三人间曾展开一场爱情喜剧，在此期间天才俱乐部#9克莱恩曾制作一枚人造陨石球送给#7柏环，陨石球表面坐落着由其复刻的「博识之眼」。
Within the span of a century, three geniuses who drew the gaze of the Erudition Aeon were born on the same planet. They were Bohdan #7, Lambda #8, and Klein #9. Hence, this epoch was known as the "Golden Age." Rumor has it that something of a romantic comedy unfolded between the trio, as during this time, Klein — #9 of Genius Society — once created a man-made meteorite for #7, Bohdan, and upon the meteorite's surface existed a replica of the Eye of Erudition.
塔拉毒火焰 Thalan Toxi-Flame
天才俱乐部#55余清涂热爱为鸡尾酒起些花哨的名字，这其中或许暗含秘辛——正如塔拉毒火焰的名字，它即为七百七十四种剧毒鸡尾酒之一。有记载在尔特勒克西亚星系，塔拉毒火焰曾作为最佳口味鸡尾酒一度畅销，每一位品尝过塔拉毒火焰的居民都不再有机会讲述它的口味。嗅觉敏锐的皮皮西人却在此后乘胜追击，于银河中推广了塔拉奇火焰、塔拉毒水焰和塔拉不毒火焰等多款仿制品——安全无害，不含酒精。
Yu Qingtu, Genius Society's #55, has a predilection for giving cocktails gaudy names. Some among them might even have names with special implications, connected to stories known only to a few — stories such as the Thalan Toxi-Flame, which exists on record as one of the 774 most toxic cocktails. Records show that in the Aterlexian System, the Thalan Toxi-Flame was once extremely popular among the locals, with each of the locals that sampled its taste no longer able to describe the flavors thereafter. The Pepeshi people, imbued with acute olfactory senses, would use their understanding of the beverage to their benefit and introduced other counterfeit drinks such as the Thalan Mysti-Flame, the Thalan Hydro-Flame, and the Thalan Detoxi-Flame to the cosmos, with each of them being entirely harmless and alcohol-free.
粉红冲撞 The Pinkest Collision
天才俱乐部#55余清涂的音乐品味不俗，她与阮•梅私交甚好，曾在自己最爱的古琥珀纪乐曲中选取亮眼的名字制成饮品送给阮•梅；余清涂所调制的特饮粉红冲撞被证明无毒，但一位调酒师曾夜以继日研究它的配方，试图证明其中有数种虫类尸体：虫类孢子、甲壳以及磷粉——他判断该酒可能有致幻效果。
Yu Qingtu, Genius Society's #55, has good taste in music. On account of her fantastic friendship with Ruan Mei, she once made a drink — to which she gave an eye-catching name taken from the title of her favorite ancient Amber Era music — as a gift to the other woman. The drink Yu Qingtu concocted, named the Pinkest Collision, was proven to be non-toxic, but a mixologist once spent days trying to recreate its formula, seeking to prove that the beverage was made from various insect carcasses, insect spores, carapaces, and phosphorous — he concluded that this drink may possess hallucinogenic qualities.
繁育火漆 Sealing Wax of Propagation
颓唐的自灭者中流传着一个说法：即宇宙万物并无意义，人类在星神眼里亦不值一提。如果星神当真凌驾众生，高高在上，又怎会在乎凡人的爱恨苦乐？沉眠无相者Ⅸ的存在就是明证。为了向自灭者证明星神在乎，混沌医师结合秘学僧侣的巫神术制造了星神火漆，据说盖下这枚火漆，就会遥遥吸引对应星神跨越时空的瞥视——目前还没有成功案例，不过，确实有些自灭者盖下火漆后，重拾了对宇宙、星神及其它一切的信心。
There is a saying amongst the dejected Self-Annihilators that the universe has no purpose and humans are nothing in the eyes of the Aeons. If the Aeons truly stand above all lifeforms and rule supreme, then why would they care about the everyday concerns of mortals? The existence of the sleeping and shapeless IX is proof of that. To show the Self-Annihilators that the Aeons do care, the Doctors of Chaos combined the demon god crafts of the occult monks to create the Sealing Wax of Aeons. It is said that stamping with this Sealing Wax will attract a glimpse from the corresponding Aeon from across space and time — There are no successful examples yet, but some Self-Annihilators did regain their faith in the universe, Aeons, and everything else after stamping with this sealing wax.
降维骰子 Dimension Reduction Dice
九枚六面骰组成了这个奇特的三角体，它能对自身进行持续不断的降维，从而以二维平面的方式存在于立体的世界里。谁以何种目的将其创造出来，目前还不清楚。
Nine six-sided dice make up this bizarre pyramidal device. It can continuously reduce the number of dimensions it occupies and exists in the 3-dimensional world as a purely 2-dimensional entity. No one knows who created it or why.
混沌云芝 Chaos Trametes
云朵是水汽聚合的产物，它们来得全无目的，散得毫无征兆，可人们注视着随机诞生的浮云时，却往往会看见想象之物现于天际——混沌医师相信世上没有绝对的虚无，一切看似无意义的存在都有其无法背离的含义。「混沌云芝」是他们最常使用的奇物道具，用来帮助那些颓唐的自灭者重建对生命价值的信心。
Clouds are born from a collection of moisture. They are created for no purpose, and dissipate without forewarning. However, when humans gaze upon the randomly created clouds, they often project their imagination onto these shapes. The Doctors of Chaos do not believe in absolute nihility. All that appears meaningless must have its own irrefutable purpose. Chaos Trametes is their most common Curio item, used to restore the confidence of despairing Self-Annihilators to have purpose in their lives again.
跃迁复眼 Warping Compound Eye
无名客分为两种，一种享受未知的神秘，另一种则偏向于有计划地开拓宇宙。后者利用阿基维利的力量制造了「跃迁复眼」，它的光线能率先跃迁至前方的星系，带回新世界的信息。对于那些孤身上路的无名客来说，跃迁复眼是必不可少的装备，它能防止无名客一头扎进被香涎干酪填满的世界里。
There are two types of Nameless. One type enjoys the mysteries of the unknown, while the other tends to trailblaze through the universe with a plan. The latter created the Warping Compound Eyes with the power of Akivili. The light of these gadgets can warp forward to the stars ahead of the user and bring back news from new worlds. For the Nameless who travels alone, Warping Compound Eyes are irreplaceable tools that prevent the Nameless from plunging headfirst into worlds filled with Ambergris cheese.
异木果实 Fruit of the Alien Tree
这颗形似心脏的果实来自于某株被药师赐福的大树，据说已有五十琥珀纪的历史。虽然不知它是否能使食用者长生不死，但显然它本身已是一种不死孽物。
This heart-shaped fruit comes from a tree blessed by Yaoshi and is supposedly 50 Amber Eras old. It is unclear whether the fruit would give immortality to those who eat it, but the tree itself is definitely an immortal abomination.
测不准匣 Casket of Inaccuracy
这只匣子的每一面都能够打开，本应重合的空间并不重合，由于这种独特的性质，你无法确定打开匣子后会发生什么，因此也并不建议在里面存放任何东西。
Each side of this casket can be opened. The spaces that should be overlapping are not overlapped. Due to this unique characteristic, no one can be sure of what will happen when the box is opened. Therefore, it is not recommended to store anything in it.
香涎干酪 Ambergris Cheese
曾有一个保姆机器人突发奇想，将丰饶香涎做成干酪，好满足小主人看似永无止境的食欲。不料香涎干酪竟自己生长起来，保姆机器人和主人开足马力，消化速度却也跟不上干酪的生长速度。于是他们只好求助路过的悲悼伶人，搭乘贡多拉逃去了别的星系。直到现在，银河中仍然有一个星系被美味的干酪塞得严严实实，一丁点空隙也没留下。这个故事很有教育意义：不要浪费粮食。
Once upon a time, a helper robot turned Ambergris of Abundance into cheese on a whim to satisfy its little master's seemingly never-ending appetite. Unexpectedly, the Ambergris Cheese started to multiply on its own. The helper robot and the master worked at full speed, but their digestion still could not keep up with how fast the cheese was multiplying. Therefore, they had to ask for help from a group of passing Mourning Actors and escaped to another world on a gondola. That one world in the cosmos is still stuffed full of delicious cheese to the day, packed so tight that not a single centimeter of space is left. The story teaches an important lesson about not wasting food.
福灵胶 Fortune Glue
运气是一种能力吗？也许；运气能够被改变吗？黑塔认为能。这位天才发明了「福灵胶」，将它涂抹在眼皮上，将获得整整24个系统时的好运。黑塔太空站的许多人欣喜若狂地试用这项发明，他们全都度过了波澜不惊的一天，这说明在动荡的世界上，能平凡地生活就已经很好运了。
Is luck an ability? Maybe. Can luck be changed? Herta believes it can. That genius invented the "Fortune Glue." Just apply it on your eyelids and you would get a full 24 system hours' worth of good luck. Many at Herta space station were ecstatic to try out this invention. They all had an uneventful day, which shows that it is already lucky to be able to live an ordinary life in a turbulent world.
永不停嘴的羊皮卷 The Parchment That Always Eats
在黑塔的奇物清单里，这张羊皮卷的危害等级被标注为极高。流落到黑塔空间站之前，它曾属于一位虚构史学家。羊皮卷以人类的历史为食，贪婪的舌头搅动着文明的集体潜意识，使之支离破碎。黑塔伪造了虚假的世界记忆供它吞噬，以此满足其无止境的饕餮欲望，不过总有一天，这张羊皮卷会识破天才的诡计。
In Herta's Curio list, the hazard level of this parchment is marked as extremely high. It once belonged to a History Fictionologist before ending up at the space station. The parchment feeds on the history of humanity, its greedy tongue churning the collective subconscious of civilization to pieces. Herta forged false memories of the world for it to devour to satisfy its endless gluttony. But one day, this parchment will see through the genius' tricks.
博士之袍 The Doctor's Robe
在第Ⅸ机关的秘密暗网，一件天价商品引来了无数竞拍者的关注。这件长袍据称曾属于天才俱乐部#64「原始博士」，拥有不可思议的力量。将它挂上暗网的是一位匿名用户，人们相信他是巡海游侠的一员，纷纷向之发问，但遗憾的是，直到长袍被拍下，这位神秘主人都没有作出任何回应。
An incredibly expensive item surfaced on Device IX's dark web one day and grabbed the attention of countless bidders. This robe was reportedly once owned by member #64 of the Genius Society, Dr. Primitive, and supposedly had incredible powers. The seller on the dark web was anonymous. People believed them to be a member of the Galaxy Rangers and kept sending them questions. Regrettably, this mysterious owner did not make any responses even after the item was sold.
俱乐部券 Society Ticket
天才俱乐部#56以利亚萨拉斯曾经有个美好的愿望：俱乐部里的天才们能够欢聚一堂，其乐融融地交流生活、爱情与梦想。为此，他发明了「俱乐部券」，并设计了一整套系统，保证即使在他死后，每位入会的新人都能得到这张能够即时传送到某个宴会位面的入场券。事实是，#56以后的每位会员都确实使用过「俱乐部券」，可时间从来没有重合过哪怕一次。
Genius Society #56, Elias Salas, once had a beautiful dream. He wished the geniuses of the Society could come together and happily converse about their lives, loves, and dreams. For that purpose, he invented "Society Tickets" and designed an entire system that ensured every new Society member would receive this ticket even after his death. This ticket would instantly teleport the user to a specific dimension decked with festivities. The truth is that every new member after #56 had indeed used their Society Ticket, but not a single one of them had used it at the same time as someone else.
信仰债券 Faith Bond
在星际和平公司中荣升P40级的员工，都将获得认购「信仰债券」的权利。它意味着路易斯•弗莱明对你的肯定，并附带了一项神圣无比的承诺：即在「琥珀王」命中注定的存护伟业之中将拥有你的一席之地。你的能力微乎其微，你的财富不足为道，你的信仰如同浩瀚星海中的一粒微尘。但一代又一代的「你」汇聚起来，终将拥有守护整个宇宙的力量。
Interastral Peace Corporation staff members who are promoted to level P40 gain the right to purchase Faith Bonds. These bonds indicate Louis Fleming's affirmation of the individual staff and come with a sacred vow: The staff now have a place in the Amber Lord's destined achievement of Preservation. One person's abilities amount to nothing, their wealth also amounts to nothing, and their faith is like a single particle of dust in the wide starry seas. However, generations of humanity will join together and ultimately obtain the power to protect the entire universe.
纯美之袍 Robe of The Beauty
纯美骑士纵横星海的时代，全宇宙都为他们的风采所倾倒；这群追寻着美的高贵骑士身着光耀照人的金银甲胄，肩披丝线与星光织就的华美战袍，在头盔之下，是俊美有如天神的绝代容颜。即使在「纯美」已然消逝的现代，那些曾经一睹骑士风华的人们依然相信伊德莉拉终将归来。
The entire universe bowed before the grace of the Knights of Beauty while they still traversed the skies. These noble knights who chased beauty wore resplendent gold and silver armor, and donned magnificent robes woven from silk and starlight. They had divinely beautiful features under their helmets. Even in the current era when the Beauty had already faded, those who had once witnessed the magnificence of the knights still believe Idrila will one day return.
分裂金币 Gold Coin of Discord
并非所有星球都对星际和平公司的商业帝国张开双臂表示欢迎，在不断扩张的星系版图之中，总有极个别的例外拒绝了公司的好意。「谢谢，」他们说，「但我们不需要信用点，我们完全有能力照顾自己。」面对如上情况时，公司的代表会耸耸肩，然后轻描淡写地摧毁该星球的金融体系根基——通常是黄金。
Not all planets opened their arms and welcomed the expansion of the Interastral Peace Corporation's commercial empire. While the cosmic map kept expanding, there were always rare exceptions that refused the IPC's beneficence. "Thank you," they stated, "but we don't need credits. We can look after ourselves just fine." The representative of the IPC would usually shrug at these statements, then casually destroy the root of that planet's commercial system — it is usually based on gold.
空无烛剪 Void Wick Trimmer
很少有人用这把烛剪处理蜡烛，却往往把它用在更残酷、更黑暗、更痛苦的地方。剪刀剪断的不是物质，而是生物心中的热量——被称为热情的动力。假如空无烛剪划过你的心脏，你将感受到的不是痛楚，而是冷漠。
Few would use this candle wick trimmer on real candles. This is usually reserved for purposes more cruel, dark, and painful. This trimmer does not cut anything material. It cuts the heat within a living organism's heart — the motivation named "passion." If the Void Wick Trimmer trims at your heart, you will feel no pain, only apathy.
天外重声大碟 Record from Beyond the Sky
当「秩序」太一被希佩吸收时，天外合唱班失去了信仰，那曾经庄严井然的和声也随之哑然，令群星沉默无言。仅有少数几张由爱好者录制的唱片至今仍流传于世，将它放入特制的唱机中，你将听见来自宇宙彼端的歌唱，饱含秩序的美好。最后一台秩序唱机在帝皇战争中损坏，唱片上厚厚的积灰似在抗议那无声的时光。
The Beyond the Sky Choir lost their faith when Ena the Order was absorbed by Xipe. The once-solemn chords fell silent and the stars turned mute. Only a few records, made by the Choir's devoted audiences remain in this world today. When these records are placed within specific phonographs, you will hear songs from the end of the universe, sounds that contain the beauty of Order. The last Phonograph of Order was destroyed in the Emperor's War, and now the thick layer of dust on the records are protests to that soundless era.
万象无常骰 Entropic Die
万象无常骰曾在宇宙中极为常见，造成无数微小但邪恶的混乱。它的使用方法是这样的：手掌紧紧握住骰子，默念任意一句有意义的话，想着你最想吃的食物同时将骰子掷出。某一面向上时你会得到意外之财，某一面向上时你会收获美好的爱情，但更多面的结局是疾病、霉运、诅咒和终生相伴的梅雨。尽管如此，仍有许多人热衷于投掷万象无常骰，并快乐地宣称这不过是假面愚者的一个玩笑。
Entropic Dice are common in the universe and cause countless tiny but malevolent disturbances. To use it, you grab the die tightly and think of any meaningful sentence in your head, then as you throw the die, think about the food you want to eat the most. You will receive unexpected wealth if the die lands on a certain number and wonderful love on another number, but the ends you will meet for other numbers include illness, bad luck, curses, and lifelong rain. Despite this, many people still love to play with these dice, and happily declare that these items are just a joke made by the Masked Fools.
闪耀的偏方三八面骰 Shining Trapezohedron Die
这枚骰子的各面并不规则，内部有奇异的光彩肆意流转，传说封印着恐怖而不可名状的邪神，必须避免在无光的环境下与之接触。过去有人不相信上述传说，执意在黑暗中与骰子共处一室，却发现骰子自身的光华无法遮蔽。由此产生了著名的「闪耀偏方三八面骰悖论」：你没法证明没法证明的事情。
This die has irregular sides and a wondrous light that twirls unrestrained within it. It is said to be the seal of a horrible and indescribable evil god, and one must avoid contact with it in dark places at all costs. Some people did not believe in the above myth and insisted on staying in a dark room with the die, only to find that the light within the die itself cannot be blocked out. That is how the famous Shining Trapezohedron Die Paradox came to be — You cannot prove something that cannot be proven.

在黄昏战争前，混沌星云膨胀所产生的爆炸碎屑可以作为饵料，其特有的宇宙尘埃芳香能够吸引到古兽前来觅食。但在这场覆界浩劫之后，「碎星芳饵」似乎失去了其原有作用，无论学者如何研究改造饵料，都再没有人能够成功寻得古兽身影。
Before the Dusk Wars, the exploded fragments born out of the expansion of disordered nebulas could be used as lures, and their unique aroma of cosmic dust could attract Leviathans to feed on them. However, the Shattered Star Bait seems to have lost its original effectiveness after that catastrophic disaster. No matter how much scholars researched and modified the lure, no one was ever able to glimpse the form of the Leviathans again.
湮灭烛剪 Obliteration Wick Trimmer
如果用这把烛剪剪断烛芯，愤怒的反物质火焰反而会将蜡烛点燃，粒子碰撞下整个蜡烛会在燃烧数秒后立刻湮灭。如果用剪刀划过你的皮肤，则会立刻发生能量逸散反应，它触碰过的部分都会立刻化成负粒子在躯体中震荡，接着四散逃逸。
If this candle wick trimmer is used to cut a wick, the angry anti-matter flames will ignite the candle, and the entire candlestick will be obliterated within seconds under the intense particle collisions. Exothermic reactions will be immediately triggered if this trimmer grazes your skin. Any parts of the body that the trimmer touches will instantly turn into antiprotons, reverberate throughout the body, and then scatter.
虫网 Insect Web
武装考古学派曾几次报导在野外遇到的危险经历，他们在洞巢深处遇到铺天盖地的虫网，粘着衰败的虫蜕、数以万计的虫泡以及各类分泌物，如果不慎触碰很可能会感染寄生幼虫。为将资料交由博识学会进行研究，曾有被寄生的武装考古学派成员咬牙从自己臂下剜出幼虫，学界皆对此举赞叹不已、彻夜研究，最后得出结论：它们很可能是虫皇塔伊兹育罗斯繁育的后代子嗣。
The Armed Archaeologists had repeatedly reported on the dangers they met in the wild. They had encountered a never-ending stretch of insect webbings deep inside a nest, with the decaying shed skins of worms, tens of thousands of egg sacs, and various secretions stuck to it. Touching this web carries a high risk of becoming infected by the parasitic larvae. Once, a parasitized Armed Archaeologist steeled themselves and sliced out larvae from underneath the skin of their arm with a knife in order to deliver data to the Intelligentsia Guild for research purposes. The academic world gave this act high praises and devoted much research into it, coming to the conclusion that these creatures are very likely the descendants of Tayzzyronth, the Imperator Insectorum.

The leaves of the laurel crown are made of leaves of decayed mesons, and the crown itself is woven in the shape of branches using quantum beams. After the acknowledged one puts it on, they will feel that they exist in a different plane of the universe.
时空棱镜 Space-Time Prism
被做成奶酪外型的多面棱镜，每一个小孔都是单独镜面，被不同棱面照射到会产生不同效果，部分参与实验者被棱面照射后身体被放大或缩小，而部分参与实验者被照射后身体与原来并无区别，却无一例外接收了不属于自己的记忆，他们患上虚构记忆症，并认为在棱面中看到了星神浮黎谜样的面容。
A multifaceted prism made in the shape of cheese. Every hole is an individual surface, and reflections from each prism surface produce a different effect. Some participants in experiments have their bodies physically enlarged or reduced after being reflected in the prism. Meanwhile, other participants have no bodily alterations, but instead receive memories not of their own. They become diagnosed with fictmemoria, and claim that they saw the enigmatic face of the Aeon Fuli in the prism.

万识囊 Omniscient Capsule
博识学会中有一群人认为科学与魔法本为一体。发达的科学即是魔法，严谨的魔法则是科学。他们从远古的奇幻传说中汲取灵感，制造了「万识囊」——一种轻巧的便携储物装置。在博识学会的构想中，万识囊最终将连接向一个个独立的半位面，拥有无限的空间，而不是如今所使用的超距折叠技术……他们仍在努力。
There is a group in the Intelligentsia Guild that believes science was originally the same as magic, that advanced science is magic and rigorous magic is science. They drew inspiration from ancient fantastic mythologies and created the Omniscient Capsule, a light-weight and convenient storage gadget. The Intelligentsia Guild planned for the Omniscient Capsule to ultimately lead to independent demiplanes, thus obtaining infinite space beyond the advanced spatial compression technologies currently in use... And they are still trying.
卜筮咕咕钟 Divination Cuckoo Clock
这只咕咕钟会在每天凌晨时分吐出一张写有诗句的纸条，所有的句子都由远古时代数学体系名词组成。有人认为纸条上写的一定是对未来的预言，并称自己已经快要成功破译，但它却突然凭空消失。预见未来的可能性本身就已价值连城，所有人都企盼它再一次流通在市场，那时候星系中所有的财富都会向它涌流——也有人觉得它只是一只被设置为擅长写诗的酸臭咕咕钟。
Every day at dawn, this cuckoo clock will spit out a piece of paper with poetry written on it. All the sentences in the poems are composed of jargon from ancient mathematical systems. Some believe these poems to be prophetic and claim to be close to deciphering them, only for the clock to suddenly disappear. The possibility of foretelling the future is already priceless, and everyone is hoping for the clock to once again be circulated in the market. If that ever happened, all the riches of the universe would pour towards the clock — But there are also those who think it is only an artistic cuckoo clock designed to be good at writing poems.
黑森林咕咕钟 Black Forest Cuckoo Clock
第二次机械危机结束后，大量机器人陷入应激状态，对一切可能发酵的矛盾十分敏感。一道流言称机械生命将带来最终的灾厄，于是立刻引起众机器人的重视，成立远征队三次涉猎未被开辟的陆地，他们到达陆地最南端的岛屿，在一片被笼罩在黑暗中的森林中揪出了制造流言机的罪魁祸首——躲在山中研究邪恶科技的工匠大师。
After the end of the Second Machine Crisis, many robots became very anxious and were sensitive to any possible conflict. A rumor claiming that mechanical lifeforms will bring about the final disaster immediately drew the attention of all robots, and they formed an expedition team to scout unexplored lands three times. They reached the island at the southernmost tip of the land and dragged out the rumor's creator from a forest enveloped in utter darkness — A master artisan who hid in the mountains to study evil technology.
永动咕咕钟 Perpetual Motion Cuckoo Clock
自从#76螺丝咕姆为机械生命争取来之不易的和平后，螺丝星迎来了第二次工业复兴运动，无数发明家层出不穷，他们创造诅咒机、概率机与糖果守卫，并热衷于研究七大不可思议课题，「永动」作为排行第二的课题被机械生命热衷，而螺丝星排行第十九的发明大师在生命的最后向大家展示了自己的永动咕咕钟——它的作品将利用阿基米利螺旋能量永不止熄，但发明大师却在得到莫大殊荣后亲手终止了自己的生命，原因不明。
After Screwllum, #76 member of the Genius Society, gained a hard-won peace for mechanical lifeforms, Planet Screwllum welcomed a Second Industrial Revolution. Countless inventors created curse machines, probability calculators, and candy guards, and passionately researched topics on the Seven Great Mysteries. As the topic ranking second amongst all, "Perpetual Motion" was loved by mechanical lifeforms. A great inventor, ranked nineteenth in Planet Screwllum, presented to the public their own Perpetual Motion Cuckoo Clock at the end of their life — This fine work used the Archimeles Spiral Energy to keep itself perpetually in motion, but the great inventor ended their own life for no apparent reason after receiving supreme honors for their creation.
朋克洛德精神 Punklorde Mentality
生命只是一场游戏——对于赛博世界「朋克洛德」的一众黑客，这句玩笑并非戏言。他们游走于网络空间，用名为以太编辑的技术改写现实，将人生编写成一场宏大的游戏。偶有天才之中的天才，得以飞向星球之外，将广袤的银河当作新手村外的第二片舞台。这张卡带记录了某位传奇黑客的故事，他的一生始于朋克洛德的地下水库，终于巡海游侠的簇拥之中。据说那场葬礼安静、无声，只有一张游戏卡带静躺于棺木之上，为一位黑客的结局落下「通关」的注脚。
Life is just a game — This sentence is no mere jest for hackers from the cyberworld Punklorde. They traverse the internet and use a technology known as aether editing to alter reality, making life into a great game. Occasionally, the cream of the crop among them gets to soar away from the planet and use the vast Cosmos as the second stage beyond the tutorial area. This cassette tape records the story of a legendary hacker. His life began in Punklorde's underground water reservoirs and ended in the company of the Galaxy Rangers. It is said that the funeral was a quiet one, with only a game cassette silently lying atop the coffin, serving as a footnote of "Finished the Game" at the hacker's final rites.
信标着色剂 Beacon Coloring Paste
信标着色剂的强烈色彩与视觉刺激使星际救援队极易发现它所绘制的救援图案。它的发明者乃是一位画技卓绝的无名客。该无名客曾因航行事故受困于一片蛮荒的无人星区，借由白矮星碎片的边角料，他最终调制出了救援史上殊为伟大的信标着色剂。
The bright, visually stimulating colors of the Beacon Coloring Paste allow the Galactic Rescue Team to easily spot signs written with it. It was invented by a Nameless who possessed great artistic abilities. This Nameless once experienced a flight incident and was trapped in a barren and desolate star system. In the end, with the use of scraps from a white dwarf star fragment, he was able to produce the most magnificent item in the history of search and rescue — the Beacon Coloring Paste.
公司咕咕钟 IPC Cuckoo Clock
公司最初的零号咕咕钟，代表着咕咕钟计划的启动。很多人都非常好奇咕咕钟计划究竟为何而诞生——路易斯•弗莱明声称这是出于对存护星神克里珀的追随，需要保护公司来之不易的存在。他在演讲中表示星际和平公司虽然已是宇宙金融主宰，但仍需保持对终末灾厄的警惕，继而他一手创造咕咕钟系列，旨在收集这位星神的相关讯息，严防公司在未来星河历程中任何一点破产或解散的可能性。
The IPC's initial Prototype Cuckoo Clock represents the beginning of Operation Cuckoo Clock. Many are curious why Operation Cuckoo Clock was conceived — Louis Fleming declared that the worship of Qlipoth, Aeon of Preservation, means the IPC needs to protect its hard-won presence. In his speech, he stated that while the Interastral Peace Corporation is now the master of the universe's finances, it still needs to remain vigilant against the catastrophe of Finality. That is why he advocated the creation of the cuckoo clock series to collect information regarding that Aeon, meticulously removing any possibility of the IPC becoming bankrupt or disbanded in its future cosmic journey.
机械咕咕钟 Mechanical Cuckoo Clock
第二次鲁珀特之乱后，公司一度计划对全宇宙的机械生命进行残酷的灭绝。所幸在该计划尚未通过之时，#76螺丝咕姆被博识尊选中加入天才俱乐部的消息传到了公司的耳中。为了向新的天才示好，公司制造了这台机械咕咕钟作为礼物。以如今的眼光看来，这礼物也太过平平无奇——但那可是一个机械生命遭到迫害的年代。机械咕咕钟的诞生本身，就是和平的象征。
After the Second Rubert Rebellion, the IPC had once planned a brutal extermination of all mechanical life across the Cosmos. Fortunately, before the plan was passed, the IPC heard that #76 Screwllum was selected by Nous to join the Genius Society. The IPC then made this mechanical cuckoo clock as a gift to appease the new genius. This gift is very unremarkable in today's view, but that was an era when mechanical beings were persecuted. The birth of the mechanical cuckoo clock itself is a symbol of peace.
分裂银币 Silver Coin of Discord
星际和平公司的技术部门善于挖掘具有商业潜力的产品，在星际通信网络刚被建立时，联络天线供不应求，公司很快意识到星际市场中潜在的需求，便想出一条好点子：银的延展性极佳，一克便能拉成数尺的联络天线，于是某位研究员研造出分裂银币，令银币不停分裂数量剧增，又被公司熔铸成天线出口各个星系，极大地推动了星系间的交流。
The Technology Division of the Interastral Peace Corporation is adept at unearthing products with commercial potential. When the interstellar communication network was just being established and the supply of antennas fell short of demand, the IPC quickly recognized the latent need for this item in the cosmic market. An ingenious plan was born: Since silver's exceptional malleability allowed it to be stretched from one gram into yards of antenna, a researcher devised a Silver Coin of Discord that split itself infinitely, dramatically increasing the quantity of silver available to meet demands. The IPC then melted these coins into antennas and exported them throughout various star systems, enormously advancing interplanetary communications.
家族缘结 Family Ties
有出逃者称自己曾因打开奇怪的匣子获得一枚家族缘结，误入信仰「同谐」希佩的家族聚会，他描述自己见到了前所未有的画面：群星意志彼此相连，拧成一股绳结。在家族缘结下，人们睁大双眼、面露微笑，他们的表情惊人一致，并互相看着彼此。当他发出疑问时，大堂内数千人同时看向他，并异口同声发出了同样的声音——「欢迎。」出逃者立刻毛骨悚然，最后，为谋生存，他只好同样睁大双眼、面露微笑。
An escapee reported that he had acquired a Family Ties after opening a peculiar box, and inadvertently entered a gathering of The Family that venerates Xipe the Harmony. He described witnessing an unprecedented scene: The will of numerous heavenly bodies were intertwined, coiling into a single bound knot. Under Family Ties, people open their eyes wide, their faces etched with eerie smiles, staring at one another with identical expressions. When he voiced a question at the scene, everyone in the grand hall simultaneously shifted their gaze towards him and spoke with the same voice — "Welcome." The escapee was instantly unnerved, and, in a desperate bid for survival, he too held his eyes wide, his face plastered with the same smile.
血锦之纪徽章 Medal of the Gloryblood Era
琥珀纪与联觉信标推广一百纪后，星际贸易持续发展，资源交换成为燃眉之急。一些星球跃升成为炙手可热的星际埠口，第二次繁荣来临——史称「血锦之纪」，持续近五百个琥珀纪。血锦之纪在晚期进入颓靡之势，然而即使是堪称浩劫的星际能源战争也未能耗尽第二次繁荣的辉煌成果。与此同时，「智识」博识尊突然中断了对宇宙奥秘的运算。
A hundred Amber Eras after the proliferation of the Amber Era system and the Synesthesia Beacon, interstellar trade continued to develop and resource exchange became a pressing matter. A few planets ascended to become bustling interstellar hubs, signaling the onset of the Second Prosperity termed the "Gloryblood Era." The Second Prosperity endured for nearly five hundred Amber Eras before entering a gradual decline, but not even the apocalyptic Interstellar Energy War could erase its resplendent achievements. At the same time, Nous the Erudition unexpectedly terminated their calculations regarding the mysteries of the universe.
黑洞之阱 Black Hole Trap
星系中时空曲率最大的地方曾出现疑似「虚无」星神的巨影，祂的影子乃是层层迷雾，曾有学者认为自己得到启示，为追随那道晦暗丢下一切，奋不顾身前往其中，再没有回来过。学界主流观点认为这是有暗地势力刻意布置的陷阱，但据探测，此处确有不同寻常的隐秘能量流动，其原因未知。
The places where the space-time curvature are most extreme are suspected to be locations cast in the vast shadow of the Aeon of Nihility. However, as THEIR presence is shrouded in mist and mystery, there have been many a scholar who thought they have received revelations from the Aeon, causing them to leave all behind to seek Nihility's gloom without giving thought or concern to their own safety. In the end, none of them ever returned. It is a common belief among mainstream academic circles that this is a trap intentionally set by hidden powers, but according to survey data, there truly seems to be some kind of unknown energy flowing through these parts for reasons unfathomed.
星际大乐透 Interastral Big Lotto
如何令一个商业模式持续运作下去？在银河大乐透广获好评之后，星际和平公司的业务巩固部接棒奥斯瓦尔多•施耐德的产品远见，出售了星际大乐透，他们祈愿它同样能够获得成功，并为此打造了八十六条配套产业链一并推广——虽然公司打造的代言人「大乐透女神」宝乐思•梅丽在此后因不明原因身亡，但更多信用点最终涌入了星际和平公司！
How do you make a business model last? After getting rave reviews for their Cosmic Big Lotto, the Interastral Peace Corporation's Business Consolidation Department followed Oswaldo Schneider's product vision and put the Interastral Big Lotto on the market, hoping that it would bring them success as well. They even connected eighty-six complementary industrial production chains and promoted them as a single entity. However, although the "Lotto Goddess" Beatrice Mellanine the IPC wished to develop as their spokesperson for their product perished due to reasons unknown, the IPC still reaped a windfall of credits in the end!
分裂咕咕钟 Fission Cuckoo Clock
收到「终末」的厄兆后，关于分裂灾变的咕咕钟突然出现在黑森林中，黑森林无机生命团块链因此发生了不明原因断裂。一位闯入黑森林的无名客却因对咕咕钟的狂热喜爱而将其收藏，并执意将之带去自己的故乡——分裂咕咕钟在旅途中不断分裂，最终将无名客的飞行器塞得满满当当。但因其并未在有限时间内参悟分裂咕咕钟不停分裂的现象预示何物，他在星际旅行的半路被虫潮吞没。
After receiving an omen from the Finality, the Cuckoo Clocks connected to the cataclysm suddenly appeared in the Black Forest, causing blockchains of inorganic entities to break up for reasons unknown. A Nameless intruding in the forest, however, began collecting the clocks for reasons related to passion and was determined to bring the clocks back home with them. The Fission Cuckoo Clock constantly split during the journey, and in the end, the ship of the Nameless was filled to the brim. However, due to not comprehending the hints given by emerging phenomena resulting from constantly splitting the Fission Cuckoo Clock within the allotted time, the Nameless was devoured by the swarm halfway through their interstellar voyage.

天才俱乐部普通八卦 Typical Genius Society Gossip
「黑塔情商低下，螺丝咕姆则需要学习更多有机生命的常识！」俱乐部粉丝群总对天才们议论纷纷，他们围绕斯蒂芬•劳艾德的真实年龄争论不下，有人认为他是中年男士，有人则坚称他是孩童。纷杂议论中，粉丝提出这样一件趣事：曾有传言称天才俱乐部里的「科学怪人」是位男性，没想到她不仅是位女科学家，并且气质脱俗。于是他们吸取经验，抛出了新的问题：斯蒂芬•劳艾德的性别是真是伪？
"Herta's EQ is too low and Screwllum needs to learn more common knowledge regarding organics!" Fans of the Genius Society are always arguing over the various geniuses, and they often find themselves squabbling over things like Stephen Lloyd's actual age. Some believe he is a middle-aged man, while others maintain that he's just a child. In the chaos of their arguments, fans have brought forth an interesting anecdote to note: It is said that the being known as "Mad Scientist" among the members of the Genius Society was once rumored to be a man. No one expected a female scientist, let alone one possessed of refined manners. As such, the fans learned from this experience and posed a new question: Is Stephen Lloyd's gender also a fabrication?
混沌特效灵药 Tonic of Efficacious Chaos
混沌医师对无意义的反抗精神总令人感到十分没有意义，他们曾在混沌特效灵药中放入异问魔门牙、巴维鲁黏液、游荡恶魔的血液，最终再以心灵感应蜘蛛的额头触碰封缄瓶口。混沌医师相信该药对治疗病人的孤独有奇效，但病人服药后往往对医师的敌意更甚——它的副作用时常令自灭者望见「虚无之影」。
The Doctors of Chaos can't see the point when it comes to meaningless demonstrations of rebelliousness. They once placed the fang of an Inquisition Spirit, Baviru mucus, and the blood of a wandering devil within a Tonic of Efficacious Chaos before touching it to the head of a telepathic spider to seal the tonic's opening. The Doctors of Chaos believe that this tonic can work wonders when treating a patient's loneliness, but it also makes them grow increasingly hostile toward the doctors at the end of the process. Its side effects can commonly cause Self-Annihilators to behold the "Shadow of Nihility."
鲁珀特帝国机械齿轮 Rubert Empire Mechanical Cogwheel
#鲁珀特二世自称继承了天才俱乐部#27帝皇鲁珀特的记忆，并展开席卷寰宇的第二次反有机帝皇战争，战争期间生灵涂炭。在第二次反有机帝皇战争结束后，星际和平公司曾花费天价信用点，多次对#鲁珀特二世遗体进行鉴定，却最终得出骇人的结论：#鲁珀特二世为血肉之躯。
#Rubert II professed to have inherited the memories of Emperor Rubert, listed as Genius Society #27, and initiated the second cosmos-spanning anti-organic Emperor's War. With the war came terrible calamity, and at the end of the conflict, the IPC spent vast amounts of credits to repeatedly appraise #Rubert II's remains. This, however, led to a dreadful revelation: #Rubert II was a being of flesh and tissue.
龋齿星系模型 Cavity System Model
黑塔曾为一个遥远的故事收藏了一份模型：龋齿星系联邦政府总为不定期到来的区域充气糖果风暴焦头烂额，财务部门每个自然年都花费无数信用点对被侵蚀土壤进行修复。曾有一位无名客到达过此星球，并试图探索它的形状，在数月探索后发出惊呼：「宇宙是不规则的，就像个牙齿！」
Herta once collected a model for the sake of a faraway story she heard. The federal government of the Cavity System always found themselves irregularly hard-pressed by a storm of invading inflatable candies. Thus, their financial affairs department were forced to spend uncountable credits to resolve the damages inflicted upon their corroded soil each natural year. Once, there was a Nameless that passed by this planet, and they sought to suss out its shape, and after several months of exploration, they cried out in shock: "The universe is irregularly shaped, just like a tooth!"
愚者面具 Fool's Mask
假面愚者的面具象征着对「欢愉」的信仰，佩戴一份面具成为愚者在世界尽头酒馆集结时的入场凭证。它们质地厚重且色彩艳丽，笑容狂妄却笔触内敛，等待每份纵情的捉弄，附有假面愚者认证的虔诚——但好像都是从悲悼伶人的船上偷来的。
The mask of the Masked Fools is symbol toward their faith in the Elation, and wearing said mask is effectively an admission ticket when they gather at the tavern at the edge of the world. These masks are made of heavy material, are vibrant in color, and with a maniacal smile yet with surprisingly intricate brushstrokes, as if waiting for each playful prank. They bear the devout certification of the Masked Fools, but it seems like they were all stolen from the ship of the Mourning Actors.
邪恶机械卫星#900 Vile Mechanical Satellite #900
卡戎·塔尔金星系联盟通过生产两种类型的思想改变装置来维持经济运转，外界抵达该联盟皆需通过一位庞大智械生命的神经滑轨。据传卡戎·塔尔金文明与有机生命敌对——它们是典型的反有机文明，对待有机生命手腕狠辣，而其中尤以卫星#900最为邪恶。但它最终被当地人排挤在外，只因其自豪的机械外表在已将全体居民改造为有机伪装的卡戎·塔尔金星系联盟中格格不入。
The Charon-Targin System Alliance's economic operations are supported by the sale of their two types of thought-altering devices. Should the outside wish to reach the alliance, they must pass through the neural pathways of a titanic Intellitron life form. It is said that the Charon-Targin System Alliance is hostile to all organic life, and is a very typical anti-organic civilization in the ruthless tactics it employs against its foes. Of their many instruments of ruination, Satellite #900 stands among the vilest of them all. However, the satellite was ultimately disregarded by the denizens of the Charon-Targin Alliance due to its obvious and proud mechanical visage which integrated poorly with the populace who had taken to disguising themselves as organics.
纯美骑士精神 Spirit of the Knights of Beauty
最爱与纯美骑士打交道的派系恐怕是假面愚者，这些愚者时常拿骑士对伊德莉拉终将归来的信仰逗闷取乐，而高洁的骑士总是十分虔诚，固执地践行纯美的信仰。出于上述理由，悲悼伶人从骑士团的精神中获得了共情——他们收藏了纯美骑士在践行「纯美」时牺牲的一颗牙齿，它也如此美丽。
The faction that likes dealing with the Knights of Beauty the most are most likely the Masked Fools. These Fools like to amuse themselves by exploiting the knights' faith in the eventual return of Idrila, while the knights themselves remain ever-pious and obstinate practitioners in the ways of Beauty. Due to the reasons listed above, the Mourning Actors developed a sense of empathy for the knights from the spirit they demonstrated, and they collected a tooth sacrificed by the Knights of Beauty in their practice of seeking aesthetic perfection, with the tooth's desirability enduring even till the present.
虚构机兵 Illusory Automaton
虚构史学家所虚构的机兵群体，据传其被制造的目的是实现批量、高效的虚构，表征为各种颜色的烟雾；但因虚构史学家对历史文档的管理习惯不佳，最终机兵群体通过阅读秘密得知了自身的被虚构性，并提出了质疑：虚构史学家本身是否也是被虚构的？
Automatons fabricated by the History Fictionologists are rumored to have been made to create a large amount of high-quality fabrications that can be symbolically understood as a highly efficient and multicolored smokescreen. However, due to the History Fictionologists' poor habits when handling their own historical documentations, the automatons eventually discovered their own illusory design by reading such classified texts, and furthermore called another matter into question: Could the History Fictionologists themselves be fabrications as well?
一撮胡须火药 A Pinch of Bearded Gunpowder
相较石块、木料、黄金、超钛金属与货币，游牧矿工更热衷于挖掘「以太」。他们曾一度痴迷在矿地间用手指挖掘巨量「以太」的手感，但这种体验曾招来不幸：数名超巨型矿工终在不明区域被火药炸死，其间仅一位身材矮小的矿工得以幸存，它的胡须自此以后永远跳跃着一撮火焰。
Compared to currencies of stone, wood, gold, or supernium metals, the nomadic miners are more obsessed with the excavation of Aether. There was a period when they were infatuated with the sensation of digging vast quantities of Aether using their bare hands while in the mines, but these experiences brought calamity upon them. Several large-stature miners finally met their ends via exploding gunpowder in unknown areas, while only a short and small miner managed to survive. Its beard henceforth always flickered with a pinch of flame.
人造陨石球 Man-Made Meteorite
在同一世纪内，同一颗星球上同时诞生了三名被智识星神瞥视的天才——#7柏环、#8拉姆和#9克莱恩，因此该时代被称为「黄金年代」。据传三人间曾展开一场爱情喜剧，在此期间天才俱乐部#9克莱恩曾制作一枚人造陨石球送给#7柏环，陨石球表面坐落着由其复刻的「博识之眼」。
Within the span of a century, three geniuses who drew the gaze of the Erudition Aeon were born on the same planet. They were Bohdan #7, Lambda #8, and Klein #9. Hence, this epoch was known as the "Golden Age." Rumor has it that something of a romantic comedy unfolded between the trio, as during this time, Klein — #9 of Genius Society — once created a man-made meteorite for #7, Bohdan, and upon the meteorite's surface existed a replica of the Eye of Erudition.
塔拉毒火焰 Thalan Toxi-Flame
天才俱乐部#55余清涂热爱为鸡尾酒起些花哨的名字，这其中或许暗含秘辛——正如塔拉毒火焰的名字，它即为七百七十四种剧毒鸡尾酒之一。有记载在尔特勒克西亚星系，塔拉毒火焰曾作为最佳口味鸡尾酒一度畅销，每一位品尝过塔拉毒火焰的居民都不再有机会讲述它的口味。嗅觉敏锐的皮皮西人却在此后乘胜追击，于银河中推广了塔拉奇火焰、塔拉毒水焰和塔拉不毒火焰等多款仿制品——安全无害，不含酒精。
Yu Qingtu, Genius Society's #55, has a predilection for giving cocktails gaudy names. Some among them might even have names with special implications, connected to stories known only to a few — stories such as the Thalan Toxi-Flame, which exists on record as one of the 774 most toxic cocktails. Records show that in the Aterlexian System, the Thalan Toxi-Flame was once extremely popular among the locals, with each of the locals that sampled its taste no longer able to describe the flavors thereafter. The Pepeshi people, imbued with acute olfactory senses, would use their understanding of the beverage to their benefit and introduced other counterfeit drinks such as the Thalan Mysti-Flame, the Thalan Hydro-Flame, and the Thalan Detoxi-Flame to the cosmos, with each of them being entirely harmless and alcohol-free.
粉红冲撞 The Pinkest Collision
天才俱乐部#55余清涂的音乐品味不俗，她与阮•梅私交甚好，曾在自己最爱的古琥珀纪乐曲中选取亮眼的名字制成饮品送给阮•梅；余清涂所调制的特饮粉红冲撞被证明无毒，但一位调酒师曾夜以继日研究它的配方，试图证明其中有数种虫类尸体：虫类孢子、甲壳以及磷粉——他判断该酒可能有致幻效果。
Yu Qingtu, Genius Society's #55, has good taste in music. On account of her fantastic friendship with Ruan Mei, she once made a drink — to which she gave an eye-catching name taken from the title of her favorite ancient Amber Era music — as a gift to the other woman. The drink Yu Qingtu concocted, named the Pinkest Collision, was proven to be non-toxic, but a mixologist once spent days trying to recreate its formula, seeking to prove that the beverage was made from various insect carcasses, insect spores, carapaces, and phosphorous — he concluded that this drink may possess hallucinogenic qualities.
繁育火漆 Sealing Wax of Propagation
颓唐的自灭者中流传着一个说法：即宇宙万物并无意义，人类在星神眼里亦不值一提。如果星神当真凌驾众生，高高在上，又怎会在乎凡人的爱恨苦乐？沉眠无相者Ⅸ的存在就是明证。为了向自灭者证明星神在乎，混沌医师结合秘学僧侣的巫神术制造了星神火漆，据说盖下这枚火漆，就会遥遥吸引对应星神跨越时空的瞥视——目前还没有成功案例，不过，确实有些自灭者盖下火漆后，重拾了对宇宙、星神及其它一切的信心。
There is a saying amongst the dejected Self-Annihilators that the universe has no purpose and humans are nothing in the eyes of the Aeons. If the Aeons truly stand above all lifeforms and rule supreme, then why would they care about the everyday concerns of mortals? The existence of the sleeping and shapeless IX is proof of that. To show the Self-Annihilators that the Aeons do care, the Doctors of Chaos combined the demon god crafts of the occult monks to create the Sealing Wax of Aeons. It is said that stamping with this Sealing Wax will attract a glimpse from the corresponding Aeon from across space and time — There are no successful examples yet, but some Self-Annihilators did regain their faith in the universe, Aeons, and everything else after stamping with this sealing wax.
许愿星 Wish Upon a Star
陨星散落宇宙各处，有人表示曾听到它与自己交流，诱惑人们向其许愿。它是否真的无所不能，实现愿望又是否不需要代价？据传有组织行走星间，只为收集解开陨星的奥秘。没人知道这是某位星神的赐福，还是所有人都落入了一场人造的阴谋之中。
Meteorites fell across all corners of the cosmos. People once claimed they could hear these rocks communicating with humans, luring people to wish upon them. Can they truly grant any and all wishes without a cost? It's said that there's an organization that strides between stars solely to uncover the mystery behind the meteorites. No one knows whether these rocks are an Aeon's blessings, or whether everyone has been drawn into an artificial conspiracy.
和平的代价 Price of Peace
琥珀王支援队在寰宇蝗灾后期急速扩张，改组成立「星际和平公司」，一度发展至鼎盛。但在边星贸易战争和帝皇战争的连番打击下，通向星际和平的道路愈发艰险。这场持续了十数纪的战争以机械帝国的陨落告结，自此，宇宙终于迎来持续数百纪的「第二次繁荣」。人们相信这场繁荣永远不会结束——直到日后更为惨烈的星际能源战争悄然揭幕。
The Amber Lord Support Group rapidly expanded in the years after the Swarm Disaster, establishing themselves as the Interastral Peace Corporation, flourishing to unreachable heights. But, affected by the Borderstar Trade War and the Emperor's War, their road toward interastral peace grew increasingly arduous. After more than ten Amber Eras, this war ended with the fall of the Machine Empire. The universe finally welcomed the "Second Prosperity" that would last for hundreds of Amber Eras. People believed this era of prosperity would never end — until the day the even more terrifying Interstellar Energy War lifted its curtains.
「楼梯上的水母」 "Jellyfish on the Staircase"
谜语人间流传着一种说法：宇宙中每有一处神秘现象发生，便会在虚空中留下一处「楼梯」，那些消融的现实会沿着阶梯淌下，汇聚成形如水母的斑驳之物。曾有一位无名客声称自己与「楼梯上的水母」有过接触，他疯狂地表示水母会开启大脑灰质的认知区域——那是一片凡人无法想象的广袤天地。
The Riddlers have a saying: Every time that an enigma manifests in the universe, it will leave behind a "staircase" in the void. The dissolved realities will then drip down the steps, condensing into a mottled thing bearing semblance to a jellyfish. There was once a Nameless who claimed to have made contact with a "Jellyfish on the Staircase." In madness, he proclaimed that the jellyfish will activate the cognition regions within the gray matter of one's brain — a vast place beyond the fathoming of mortal minds.
理性的溃败 Rationality's Fall
真理究竟为何物？无人能参透。倘若「愚钝」是世界的顽疾，传播智慧便是在医治宇宙。但「书」可以医治众生吗？根据博识学会记载：历史上，月桂冠系的哲学家联合曾爆发过一场内乱，血液和机油浸染了沉思者柱廊的所有书籍，哲人们死伤无数，最终被目睹这一切的公司雇员称为「理性的溃败」——书籍以这样荒谬的方式，实现了对一个世界的再清洗。
What is truth? No one truly knows. Supposing that "stupidity" is an incurable disease in this world, then disseminating knowledge counts as a treatment for the universe. But can "books" mend all living things? According to the Intelligentsia Guild's historical records, the Philosopher Union of the Laurel Wreath Galaxy once erupted in civil war, and blood and machine oil had stained all the books in the contemplators' corridors. Uncountable numbers of scholars died, and the IPC employees who witnessed it all deemed this occurrence "Rationality's Fall" — Through such absurd means, books cleansed a world of its impurities once more.
猜不透匣 Indecipherable Box
一个能够预判开启者想法的匣子，在打开它的时候，匣中之物就会幻化为你头脑中的想象。它曾被黑塔评为最难对付的奇物之一，她与「猜不透匣」数次较劲，但每次都无法在开启匣子时控制自己脑内的构想。最后黑塔扔下「猜不透匣」，再也没碰过它——也许黑塔无所不能，唯独做不到放空大脑。
A box that can predict the thoughts of the one who opens it. When the box's hatch is lifted, the item within will manifest into what your mind envisions. Herta once rated it as one of the hardest Curios to deal with. She had butted heads with the Indecipherable Box numerous times, but never was she able to control the thoughts in her mind when she opened it. Finally, she cast it down and never touched it again. Perhaps Herta is capable of almost anything - except completely emptying her mind.
腐化异木果实 Rotting Fruit of the Alien Tree
「求药使」曾寻得一颗已然腐烂的异木果实：它的表皮色泽变得诡异，由澄黄褪色为粉蓝。为求药理，双胞胎求药使一前一后，分别吞下了异木果实与腐化的异木果实：他们一人拥抱蜕变，一人当场毙命——但因没有第三者在场，无人知晓幸存的是双子中的哪一位，他吞下的又是哪颗果实。
The Elixir Seekers once found a rotten Fruit of the Alien Tree. The color of its skin was already odd, having shifted from a faint yellow to powdery blue. To understand the pharmacology behind this fruit, a pair of Elixir Seeker twins separately ingested a normal Fruit of the Alien Tree and a rotten version. One of them immediately welcomed metamorphosis while the other instantly perished - But because there was no third party present, no one could confirm which twin survived, or which fruit he consumed.
海绵王 King of Sponges
于黑森林中，一块海绵奇迹般地产生了自由意志。它试图与同样产生意识的螺丝展开社交，却屡屡碰壁；它痛定思痛，学会了抹去身上所有的棱角与漏洞，让自己不断焕发光彩，跻身上流社会——它最后变成了一块圆滑的海绵。现在，它正致力于帮助那些被丢弃在垃圾堆里的海绵萌生自由意志。
In the Black Forest, a sponge miraculously became sapient. It tried to interact with the similarly sapient screws, but found itself hitting a brick wall. It pondered about its painful experience and learned to smooth away all the edges in its personality, allowing itself to constantly shine and climb up the societal ladder, ultimately turning into a smooth and slick sponge. Now, it dedicates its efforts to uplifting discarded sponges into developing their own self-awareness.
「神秘」磁力 Mysterious Magnetism
为对抗「智识」的确定性，谜语人曾在不确定领域做出诸多努力。他们将思想之雾和感官之雨塞入一枚棱镜，雨与雾结合的色彩变幻莫测，形成一种能够扰动感官的「磁场」。谜语人大为惊喜，渴望将此项研究继续进行——但它最终被叫停，因为越是研究，人们就越是不确定是否要继续研究。
To combat the determinacy of Erudition, the Riddlers performed a great deal of labor in aspects of knowledge that has yet to be set in stone. They inserted the Fog of Thought and the Rain of Sensation into a single prismatic lens, and their combined colors shifted endlessly to form a "magnetic field" that can disturb the senses. Revelrous in their success, the Riddlers sought to push this line of research onward but were made to stop, for the more they committed to this study, the more they grew uncertain of the necessity of its continuation.
「有机心脏」 "Organic Heart"
对有机生命的刻板印象也存在于机械群体间，例如这颗与苹果合二为一的心脏——或与心脏合二为一的苹果。可惜这个问题的答案已经无从考证，因为其创作者，奥尔森博士，因被指控「太过了解有机世界」而在战争期间遭到机械帝国处理。毋庸置疑：能证明其清白的也只有有机生命。
Mechanical lifeforms also have stereotypes for organics. For example, take this heart merged with an apple - or an apple merged with a heart. Unfortunately, the nature of this question will remain forever inconclusive. Its creator, Dr. Olsen, was accused of being "too cognizant of the organic world" and was "resolved" by the Machine Empire during the war. Undoubtably, only an organic lifeform could have proven its innocence.
阿阮袋 A-Ruan Pouch
天才俱乐部群星荟萃，总有人想为天才们的创造分个高低——阮·梅的口袋便在其中名列前茅。据称她希望将宇宙随身携带，却最终因为口袋内的维度不断膨胀而不得不将其封印；阿阮袋最后的时光在橱窗中度过，斯蒂芬·劳艾德曾将其视作重要的伙伴，大抵是因为某种特殊的情结——他不曾向任何人透露过，自己想钻进口袋里躲避家人的想法。
The Genius Society is awash with legendary figures, and so there are always people who wish to rank the creations of each genius. Ruan Mei's pouch stands at the forefront of such creations. It is said that she wished to carry the universe in her pocket, yet was forced to seal it when the dimensionality within continued to expand. The A-Ruan Pouch spent the remainder of its time in a display window. Stephen Lloyd once viewed it as his important companion for some reason — he never revealed to anyone how he contemplated hiding within the pouch to avoid his family.
智识火漆 Sealing Wax of Erudition
颓唐的自灭者中流传着一个说法：即宇宙万物并无意义，人类在星神眼里亦不值一提。如果星神当真凌驾众生，高高在上，又怎会在乎凡人的爱恨苦乐？沉眠无相者Ⅸ的存在就是明证。为了向自灭者证明星神在乎，混沌医师结合秘学僧侣的巫神术制造了星神火漆，据说盖下这枚火漆，就会遥遥吸引对应星神跨越时空的瞥视——目前还没有成功案例，不过，确实有些自灭者盖下火漆后，重拾了对宇宙、星神及其它一切的信心。

「无效念头」代码机 "Cognito Invalidater" Codebuilder
「人会在何时变成机械？机械又会在何时变成人？」这一天机械时午后三点，侵入性「无效念头」准点步入机械城某位有机体的脑内。起初，他对自己脑内不受控制的想法束手无策，紧接着，他发现写下记录可以有效对抗「无效念头」带来的焦虑和空虚。于是他开始提笔，如同呕吐一样，将那些杂乱无章、毫无意义却聒噪难耐的念头倾泻而出，转化为一行行乱码——他最终引起了谜语人的注意。
"When will the human race become machines? And when will machines become human?" Following the machine era calendar, on this day at three in the afternoon, the invasive "Cognito Invalidater" entered the mind of a certain organic individual in the Mechanical City. At the start, he was helpless against the uncontrolled thoughts in his own mind. Then, he realized writing notes could help him effectively counter the anxiety and meaninglessness the "Cognito Invalidater" inflicted on him. So he began to write, spewing forth words, expelling the chaotic and incoherent noises in his head that remained deafening loud despite being bereft of substance. He produced lines and lines of error code. This eventually drew the Riddlers' attention.
「中等念头」群体机 "Cognito Averagifier" Communal Nexus
这一天机械时午后三点，侵入性「中等念头」准点步入机械城某位自命不凡的有机体脑内。「中等念头」令他心碎：他发现自己所有天赋的极限都只能触及群体机里的「中等」。但他并不泄气，很快他运用这项珍贵的才能，在无机群体中藏匿爱恨情仇，成为一群机器中最中等的中等者，从此踏上「均衡」的命途。
Following the machine era calendar, on this day at three in the afternoon, the invasive "Cognito Averagifier" entered the mind of an arrogant organic individual in the Mechanical City. The "Cognito Averagifier" dealt him heartbreak. He realized that the limit of all his talents could only brush against the most average members of the community. But he did not despair, for soon he learned to master this new and unique skill, concealing his flurry of emotions from the inorganic masses, becoming the most average of all machines, and embarking on the Path of Equilibrium.
「心如死灰」密码机 "Ashheart" Ciphertech
这一天机械时凌晨一点，「心如死灰」密码机又一次进行了自我重启。它将组成自己躯体的密码进行多次编篡、打碎、再重组，但无论如何都逃脱不了「心如死灰」的结局。重复叁仟陆百次后，它终于发现：自己的程序密码含义即是「心如死灰」本身。
Following the machine era calendar, on this day at one at night, the "Ashheart" Ciphertech rebooted itself once more. It rebuilt the code comprising its body over and over, breaking them, assembling them, but never escaping the final results of utter despondency, as hopeless as ashes and cinders. After trying over and over for three thousand and six hundred times, it finally realized the meaning of its own sequenced code was "Ashheart" itself.
「极佳念头」彩虹机 "Revelrous" Rainbowmaker
这一天机械时清晨六点，侵入性「极佳念头」准点步入机械城某只一角兽的脑内——机械城未经改造的动物已不多了。从此，在所有令人沮丧的失败、糗事、恐惧面前，囤积的「极佳念头」都能让这只一角兽安然度过难关。它开始以悲伤为乐，以痛苦为乐，压力成为兴奋递质分泌的信号——直到某天它意识到，自己已无师自通，学会将「情绪」变成可自由调节的参数。此后，它永远信心满满，一往无前——它变成了一只「彩虹一角兽」。
Following the machine era calendar, on this day at six in the morning, the invasive "Revelrous" entered the mind of a mono-horned beast in the Mechanical City. Only paltry few unmodified animals remained in the city. Hence, fueled by the "Revelrous" contagion, the mono-horned beast was able to overcome all manner of despairing defeats, awkward incidents, and crippling moments of dread. Sadness became joy for it, pain became pleasure, and pressure became a trigger for secreting excitatory neurotransmitters — Until one day it realized it had taught itself how to convert "mood" into a freely adjustable parameter. Thereafter, its confidence was perpetually high and unshakable, turning it into a "Rainbow-Radiant Unicorn."
「奇思狂想」机器团 "Wildminder" Machine Cell
「我见过帝皇鲁珀特！」这一天机械时傍晚九点，侵入性「奇思狂想」准点步入机械城某罐缸中之脑的思维。它无法辨别自己是有机还是无机，抑或只是一团气体？它声称自己面见帝皇，只为摆脱脑内的「奇思狂想」——它在它脑袋里乱撞，过载的思考令它疲惫不堪，而鲁珀特只是修改了一处不起眼的代码，就令它如梦初醒——它醒来后意识到一切从未发生，这不过是又一次狂想。
"I've seen Emperor Rubert!" Following the machine era calendar, on this day at nine in the evening, the invasive "Wildminder" entered the thoughts of a certain brain-in-a-jar in the Machine City. It was unable to distinguish whether itself was organic, inorganic, or just a gaseous lifeform. It claimed to have met the emperor, only to break away from the "Wildminder" in its head — The thought slammed the limits of its brain, overloading its thoughts to the point of exhaustion. But after Rubert fixed a single line of unmarkable code, it awakened from this haze, coming to realize that none of this had happened, that it had only been another illusion.
