Data Heartbeat: Out-of-Control Code of the Cold-Blooded Heir

In "Skyreach City", a futuristic metropolis ruled by four major financial magnates, Lu Chenshen, a cold-blooded heir to one of the magnates, is implanted with the "Scarlet Code" by ...

Chapter 113 Silent Cage

However, at the moment when this cold data stream was about to drown out his last bit of self-awareness—

Buzz!

Another completely different throbbing sensation, like a spark thrown into an ice river, suddenly came from the palm of his hand pressing on Xu Shuangyao's back!

It was Xu Shuangyao! It was that faint yet tenacious firefly of his soul, protected by his Dark Gold True Spirit Mark! Under the dual icy erosion of the logical suppression field and the cradle program fragments, that firefly didn't extinguish. Instead, as if enraged, it emitted a faint but incredibly clear, burning will filled with resistance and protection!

This heat, like a lit match in the darkness, instantly ignited the anger and protective fire belonging to "Pei Du" deep in Pei Du's consciousness, which was washed away by the data flow and was on the verge of collapse!

Cold fragments of logic... analytical power from the cradle...

The burning will to protect... comes from the resonance of Xu Shuangyao's soul...

Two completely opposite forces, in Pei Du's consciousness core that was on the verge of collapse, were like stars of ice and fire, violently...colliding with each other!

boom--!!!

It's not destruction! It's a kind of...inconceivable...fusion and sublimation!

Pei Du's mind, suppressed to near stagnation, was forcibly accelerated a billion times at this moment! The cold data stream was no longer just an invading enemy. Instead, like a tamed wild horse, under the control of his protective will, it instantly became a weapon that could penetrate the battlefield and analyze the rules!

[Logical Suppression Field… Entropy Silence-III… Forced Dimensionality Reduction Principle… Core Energy Node… Reverse Analysis…]

[Spatial structure parameters…Crack collapse critical point…87.5%…89.1%…Coordinates of spatial weak point: Locked!]

[Zero Sector's firepower coverage map...dynamic calculation...avoidance path...recalculated! Failure rate...78.3%...65.1%...41.9%...!]

[The attack trajectory of the mother tree's roots can be predicted... the impact point offset can be calculated... and generated using the shock wave vector!]

Countless cold data instantly reorganized, analyzed, and deduced in his mind! New paths, flickering with faint vitality, were forcibly outlined on the cold map of absolute dead end, like spider silk in the darkness!

"Right... now!"

Deep in Pei Du's molten golden pupils, that bit of human, violent will was perfectly integrated with the cold logical calculations, bursting out with an absolute edge that froze time and space!

He no longer tried to forcibly resist the logical suppression of the dark blue domain! Instead... he actively accepted it!

Buzz!

The dark gold lines covering his entire body suddenly lit up with their final, most dazzling light! But this light wasn't used to unleash his power, but rather... to guide it! He injected the faintest bit of control he had left within him, derived from the Thorn Kingship, with incredible precision... into an extremely brief, minute gap in the energy circulation within the Blue Logic Suppression Field, which he had reverse-engineered through the Cradle program fragments!

It's like inserting a red-hot steel needle precisely into the most vulnerable latch of a high-speed precision gear!

Snap!

A subtle, almost imperceptible shattering sound, as if coming from the space structure itself, sounded like thunder to Pei Du's suppressed senses!

The absolutely frozen dark blue field was like an ice surface with a stone thrown into it. With Pei Du's body as the center, a circle of fine energy ripples visible to the naked eye suddenly spread out!

The confinement... is loosened!

Although it was only for a moment! Although the range was limited to less than half a meter around him! But for Pei Du, it was enough!

"roar--!"

A roar, condensed with all his will, strength, and cold calculation, erupted from the depths of Pei Du's throat like a ferocious beast breaking free from its cage! This roar was no longer a physical sound wave, but a fusion of his pent-up rage, his protective will, the tenuous hold of the Thorn Kingship, and the coordinates of... the only path to survival, calculated by cold logic!

In that billionth of a second when a crack appeared in the logical suppression!

At that moment, the torn giant root above his head was about to fall with destructive kinetic energy and corrosive pus pouring down, and its shadow completely swallowed the canyon!

The moment several scarlet annihilation beams of the Zeroers behind him locked onto his afterimage again!

The space crack in front of him was smoothed out to the critical point of the last tiny gap!

Pei Du moved!

A body covered in dark gold lines erupted with speed beyond its limits! No longer a straight-line sprint, but within the less than half-meter loose area, he completed an incredible, extreme flash, as if space were folding! His trajectory completely defied the laws of physics, a twisted survival curve calculated by cold logic amidst multiple destructive attacks!

Swish!

He held Xu Shuangyao in his arms, like a ghost tearing through space, and at the last moment before the crack that was about to completely disappear closed, he forced his way in...!

Boom boom boom——!!!

At the same millisecond when his figure disappeared into the darkness!

Like a mountain collapsing, massive roots, packed with devastating force and a torrent of corrosive fluids strong enough to melt steel, slammed down on Pei Du's foothold! The entire canyon shattered and collapsed like a fragile eggshell under the terrifying impact! Charred rock and twisted metal debris were thrown into the air!

Several scarlet beams of annihilation light, like the scythe of the god of death, cut across the area, instantly vaporizing the remains of the roots and collapsed rocks!

Several even more powerful beams of destruction emanated from the diamond-shaped command ship, like spears of divine retribution, fiercely slamming into the core of the collapsing canyon! A blinding ball of energy instantly expanded, devouring everything! A terrifying shockwave, mixed with destructive energy radiation, swept out in a circular pattern, completely crushing all remaining vines, fungi, and even the distorted spatial structures around it!
