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 ...
Dr. Qin closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, only the purest calmness and madness of a scientist remained in his eyes! He pressed the button!
Buzz——————!!!
The entire underground warehouse seemed to be plunged into the eye of an energy storm! All the connected medical bays simultaneously erupted in blinding white light! The thick energy pipelines suddenly brightened, emitting an overwhelmed hum! The data stream on the central console screen poured out like a flood!
"Neural connection... begin! Consciousness mapping... start!"
Consciousness sinks.
Wen Shifei felt himself being pulled by an irresistible force, passing through a bizarre tunnel made up of countless broken memories and chaotic emotions.
At the end of the tunnel is an endless, cold, dark void.
In the void, two huge balls of light were suspended, competing with each other.
One was a faint, flickering, warm yellow light, like a candle in the wind. Within it, the vague figure of Lu Cheneng could be seen, curled up, struggling in agony, resisting the immense tearing force from all sides. It was his "human" consciousness and soul being devoured.
The other was a vast, cold mass, emitting a faint blue metallic sheen, resembling a gigantic, icy gear. It slowly spun, each rotation releasing countless icy chains of data streams imbued with logical instructions. Like ravenous venomous snakes, they frantically coiled around, tore at, and devoured the warm yellow light. Wherever the chains passed, the void froze, leaving behind a cold, lifeless trail. This was the source of the contamination from the chip that had taken over his body—the icy will of the "weapon"!
The warm yellow light was torn by the dark blue chains, becoming increasingly distorted and dimmed, its range shrinking. Lu Cheneng's figure let out a silent, heartbreaking wail within the light.
"Shen Entropy!" Wen Shifei's consciousness condensed and took shape in the void, and she rushed towards the warm yellow light regardless of everything!
Her appearance was like throwing a hot stone into cold stagnant water!
Buzz!
The massive, icy blue gear suddenly froze! Countless icy "sights" instantly locked onto this "foreign object" of hers! Countless icy blue beams, filled with pure killing intent and purging commands, shot towards her like a dense rain of arrows! Their speed was so fast it surpassed all thought!
[Interference items... cleared! ]
The cold command echoed in the void.
Wen Shifei's pupils suddenly shrank! The chill of death instantly gripped her core of consciousness! She was just a projection of consciousness, without any defense capabilities!
At this critical moment——
"Crimson Blood... Guard!"
A low, hoarse voice with a strong smell of blood but extremely firm, like a vow that transcends time and space, exploded in the core of Wen Shifei's consciousness!
A diamond-shaped light shield burning with faint blue flames and flowing with ancient blood patterns appeared in front of Wen Shifei without any warning!
Chichichi--!!!
The dense blue beams slammed fiercely into the light shield! A sharp annihilation sound erupted! The light shield swayed violently, blood veins flickering, but it ultimately blocked the fatal attack!
"Yun Zhan?!" Wen Shifei was both surprised and delighted! She saw it! At the core of the light shield, the shadow of Yun Zhan's cold, resolute face loomed! It was him! He had somehow burned his life essence, projecting his will into her, becoming her protective shield! The price... was his life rapidly fading outside!
"Go!" Yun Zhan's shadow was extremely blurry, and his voice was extremely clear despite the huge effort. "Go... to him... I can only... block him..."
Tears welled up in Wen Shifei's eyes instantly, but she didn't hesitate at all! Using the shield of light as a cover, she used all her willpower and, like an arrow of light swimming upstream, broke through the icy blockade and slammed into the flickering warm yellow light!
"Chen En! I'm coming!" Her consciousness tightly hugged the curled up, struggling shadow.
Lu Chen's consciousness suddenly trembled! He slowly raised his head, and in his eyes, almost numb by pain and cold, he saw the clear and fiery figure of Wen Shifei. That warm, familiar breath, filled with endless love, was like a kind of fire thrown into the icy sea, instantly igniting the light that was about to go out in the depths of his consciousness!
"...Shi...Fei?" A broken, hoarse voice, but belonging to "Lu Cheneng", was squeezed out of his throat with difficulty.
"It's me! I'm here!" Wen Shifei hugged his cold consciousness tightly, her voice tearful but incredibly firm, "Look at me! Don't give up! Together! Let's drive it out!"
Her embrace, her voice, the pure and powerful will to live emanating from the depths of her soul, were like the warmest furnace, instantly melting part of the icy chains wrapped around Lu Chen's consciousness!
"Ugh!" Lu Cheneng let out a low roar of pain and relief, and the light of "humanity" in his eyes suddenly brightened a little! He turned his hand and hugged Wen Shifei tightly! The two consciousnesses hugged each other tightly in the cold void, and their light blended and grew stronger!
"Ants...struggle...meaningless..."
The cold gears roared deafeningly, a mixture of metallic friction and chaotic logic! It was completely enraged! Its massive body vibrated violently! Countless thicker, colder blue chains, carrying the soul-freezing aura of absolute zero, lashed out like dancing dragons, viciously biting at the two tightly embraced people! This attack contained all its power, aiming to completely crush and assimilate these two "interference factors" along with Lu Chen's remaining humanity!
