Everyone thought the most powerful scientist they had ever seen was a national treasure-level technologist, until they met Bai Zhi—the Light of Technology, a cosmic-level scientist.
Congrat...
444 was stunned for a long time, not quite understanding what this sentence meant.
Baizhi space?
"W-what do you mean?" 444 looked at her with a dazed expression.
Bai Zhi's smile remained unchanged, a glint gleaming from the corners of her gold-rimmed glasses. Her voice was hoarse and low, but full of laughter: "Literally."
444: “!!!”
Indeed, 444 felt from the bottom of his heart that everything was possible for Bai Zhi.
But when he understood what she meant, 444 was still frightened.
The entire ball of light trembled, and 444 stammered, "Master... Are you saying that we're not in the system space right now, but in another space?"
"That's right." Bai Zhi raised her hand slightly.
The entire space swayed slightly, and the energy generated by the turbulence allowed 444 to clearly sense that this was indeed not the system space. The atmosphere of this space was both familiar and unfamiliar.
444 is really stupid.
It knew that Bai Zhi was powerful, and also knew that this host had an extremely high IQ and was omnipotent, but it never imagined that she could actually break the Creator's program and interfere with its own system!
The host cannot enter or leave the mission world alone, and it all depends on the system.
As a system, 444 does not understand the rules and procedures here, because these are all set by the Creator. Which world to go to and how to get there, 444 only plays a connecting role and does not understand the principles.
——Of course, it has not thought about the principles.
In the eyes of their system, the Creator is a truly omnipotent God who only exists in legends.
Create countless systems, allowing the host to travel between various worlds...
If not God, then what is?
It had never imagined that Baizhi could actually change the program set by "God"!
She had expressed her curiosity about the Creator many times, but because the Creator was so powerful and because she had not done anything to actually threaten the Creator, 444 had never thought that she could make such a big move quietly!
With the connection of the system, they can go directly back to the system space from the mission world, and then go to the next world from the system space...all of this is operated by it!
And she actually let it take her into another space that was exactly the same as the system space and was built at an unknown time without knowing anything about the connection.
This is really terrible.
444 looked at Bai Zhi as if he was looking at a devil, full of shock and disbelief.
How on earth did she do that?!
Could it be that she had truly completely understood the secrets of the system, the system space, and the Creator?!
444 trembled all over at the thought of this.
It has existed in Baizhi's mind all year round and is inseparable from her, yet it knows nothing!
Just thinking about this made its hair stand on end and its spine shiver.
"You...you...what are you going to do?!" 444's voice trembled and he stammered.
If it had eyes, they would be wide open in terror.
Bai Zhi narrowed her eyes slightly, her expression calm: "Don't worry, I'm waiting for someone."
444: "?" Waiting for others?
It was completely confused and couldn't help but doubt——
Had it really traveled with her through so many worlds?!
Why was it that they were bound together and it couldn't even understand what she was saying?!
Just when 444 was about to collapse from confusion, a shadow slowly emerged from the unclear fog in the distance.
444 looked over in shock.
In the system space, each person is bound to a system and completes his or her own task. It is impossible for him or her to communicate with other taskers. Systems can still communicate in the system forum, but taskers will never be able to intersect with other taskers in the system space.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for other taskers to appear in the system space that belongs exclusively to the tasker!
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared, making 444's already shocked heart even more terrified.
The fog dissipated and the figure became completely clear.
A familiar face of a thirty-year-old man, neither Bai Zhi nor 444 was unfamiliar with it.
——Lu Wentian.
"Why are you here?!" 444 people jumped up and raised their voices, "Why are you here?!"
This is General Lu from the world just now!
If he wasn't responsible for protecting Qiao Baizhi, 444 wouldn't even give this ordinary human a second glance.
It never expected that this man, whom it ignored, would appear here!
As the mysteries piled up, 444 felt that his already weak brain was becoming even less capable...
Lu Wentian glanced at the frantic 444, then turned his attention to Bai Zhi. Then, he revealed a puzzled expression, "Ms. Qiao, where is this place?"
Bai Zhi raised her eyebrows and said with a half-smile: "This is not the system space, no need to pretend."
"I don't understand what you mean..." Lu Wentian frowned.
444 turned to look at Bai Zhi: "Master, why is he here? Isn't this the Bai Zhi space you created? Why did you bring such an ordinary person here?"
It now has a hundred thousand whys and its head is full of question marks.
Bai Zhi stared straight ahead, staring intently into Lu Wentian's eyes. "Are you still pretending? General Lu, or... Ye Tian? Yu Tian? King Yan? Xuan Tian? Baili Tian? Or... Mo Tianwen?"
444: “!!!”
It didn't think it was stupid before, but after binding with Baizhi, it gradually realized its own stupidity, or at least... not very smart.
But not being smart doesn't mean it has a bad memory. On the contrary, because it's a system, its memory is amazing. When Bai Zhi read out these names, its mind instantly remembered the people corresponding to these names -
Ye Tian, in the world of the Republic of China, during the era of warlord separatism, Jiang Tian, the son of Jiang Cheng, changed his name to Ye Tian after following Bai Zhi. He was the heir chosen by Marshal Ye Bai Zhi.
Yutian, the king of demon cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation, was hatched by Baizhi herself and stayed with her for a thousand years. Finally, she named him Yutian.
King Yama, the world of yin and yang, is the black-clothed King Yama summoned from other underworlds when Bai Zhi left the underworld.
Xuantian, the zombie king in the apocalyptic world, is brought by Baizhi. He has followed Baizhi for many years and is the leader of the knights of the pampered little princess.
Baili Tian, the world of dumplings, the mount of Dumpling Eliza Xiaobai, a human-insect combination, the king of the Federation.
As for Mo Tianwen...
Isn't that the host who ranked first in the host rankings, with scores dozens of times higher than the second place, the host who dominated System 666, and a legend in the system world?!
444 was stunned.
What does Angelica dahurica mean?
Why are these names put together?!
At this moment, it turned into a small question mark, its jaw dropped to the ground, and it felt that its worldview was shattered.
After hearing this, "Lu Wentian" suddenly switched his thirty-year-old face between several handsome young men, finally settling into a familiar yet unfamiliar face.
A handsome boy of eighteen or nineteen years old, with a pretty and delicate face that was a little pale, and dark eyes, but the bottom of his eyes was a deep and thick ink that could not be erased.
The reason why this face is familiar is that traces of Ye Tian and others can be found on it. The reason why this face is unfamiliar is that his face is not exactly the same as Ye Tian and others.
He looked back at Bai Zhi, a smile slowly forming on his lips, his voice a bit hoarse: "Although we are already very familiar with each other, today should be the first time we officially meet. I am Mo Tianwen, the host of Domination System 666."
Reach out your hand.
Bai Zhi also extended her hand: "Bai Zhi, host of Wish System 444."
Hands clasped together, eyes met, thousands of years of time, several lifetimes of tacit understanding, are all contained in this sentence.
Releasing his hand, Mo Tianwen glanced into the void, his eyes filled with mixed emotions of surprise and delight. His voice was hoarse, "Xiaozhi, I never thought you could create something like the system space. You always exceed my imagination."
Bai Zhi accepted the compliment and raised her hand to push her eyes open. "I'm also surprised that you trust me so much and followed me here directly. You should know that by coming here, you are becoming an enemy of the so-called Creator."
"If you want to break free from the shackles, you will become the enemy of the Creator sooner or later." Mo Tianwen's voice was very soft, but his tone was very firm.
At this moment, a ball of light separated from his body.
——System 666.
If it weren't for the current environment, 444 would have definitely become a little fanboy the moment he saw 666.
However, at this moment, 444 didn't care that his idol 666 appeared in front of him. He looked at the two people in front of him with confusion.
It's really shocking!
Those people were actually Mo Tianwen!
It had actually been in the same world with Mo Tianwen multiple times, and it had even met the legendary Mo Tianwen of the system world and the dominating system 666!
Its mouth never closed that day.
Every time it felt that it was already extremely shocked, but it never thought that it could be even more shocked!
666's voice is different from 444's silly and angry voice. Its voice is very steady.
"Master, what is going on?"
Apparently, it was just as confused as 444.
But its performance is much better than 444 which is dumbfounded with a question mark next to it...
Bai Zhi chuckled: "Then I and... well, let's just call you Xiaotian, it'll be easier to get used to it. Xiaotian and I will explain it to you together. It just so happens that I have some questions to ask as well."
Mo Tianwen nodded.
Bai Zhi conjured up a set of coffee tables. She and Mo Tianwen sat at either end, with tea placed in the middle.
The two light balls 666 and 444 stood aside, one calmly waiting for the answer, while the other was scratching his head with a big question mark on his head.
"Your performance in each world is a little different?" Bai Zhi finally spoke.
Bai Zhi's personal traces are quite strong in every world she travels through.
And Mo Tianwen seemed to fit into the "role" in many worlds very naturally, so she only discovered in the later worlds that they were the same person.
Mo Tianwen: "I have completed many, many missions in the world. I have been traveling between the worlds, and there is no end. This feeling has become clearer after hundreds of worlds."
He pulled the corners of his mouth, and his smile was a bit bitter. His bottomless black eyes seemed to reveal the loneliness of traveling through countless worlds and tens of thousands of years.
He continued, "So later I sealed off my memories and entered the mission world with a blank memory, leaving only a few traces of consciousness in my mind. Just knowing my mission was enough. I could only recall all my memories when I returned to the system space."
Bai Zhi nodded.
Mo Tianwen looked at her, a hint of warmth in his eyes: "I guessed you were the tasker as soon as the cultivation world ended. I also knew who you were based on your name."
"So when you reminded me in the Yin-Yang World that points are good things and should not be wasted, you were hinting to me not to use the points earned from the mission." Bai Zhi chuckled.
Her voice was very firm, and it was obvious that she understood the hint of "King of Hell" at that time.
444: "..." It really looks like a little idiot.
Why doesn't it know anything?!
Why didn't it find anything at that time?!
Beside him, 666's steady voice rang out: "It's not that you're stupid, it's that our host is too smart."
666 looked at the person opposite Mo Tianwen. It originally thought that Mo Tianwen was already a very smart and terrifying tasker, but now there was another one, a terrifying existence that made people... fearful.
444: "..." Thank you, but I didn't feel comforted.
"666 is right, you are really very smart and capable."
Mo Tianwen nodded, smiling as he held up his teacup. "You had already completed missions from several worlds back then. You were the first person in the system space, as far as I can remember, to make it onto the leaderboard after completing only a few single-digit missions, and to climb to such a high position. I was certain then that I could work with you. Seeing you awakened some of my memories, and that's when I got the hint of the Yin-Yang world."
Bai Zhi didn't show any other expression at all because of their praise. Her eyes were still full of confidence and self-righteousness.
After listening to Mo Tianwen's words, he raised an eyebrow and said, "I'm curious, why are we assigned to the same world so many times? The number of taskers is almost countless, and the number of worlds is also countless. It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Mo Tianwen nodded. "It's really impossible to be such a coincidence. I've encountered other taskers before, but not as often as you. I've traveled through so many worlds, so I was able to discover that we entered the same world. It must have been arranged by the system."
444 interrupted: "I don't have any plans..."
Bai Zhi glanced at it sideways, her voice hoarse and smiling: "Little idiot, stop showing off your despicable IQ. Look at 666, stupid but silent, this is a good system."
666: "..." 444 is so pitiful when encountering this devil host!
444: “…” Damn, I’m used to being hit :).
Bai Zhi said in a hoarse voice, neither hurried nor slow:
"I've never considered the Creator to be a god, but he is indeed very powerful. He created the system world. Small systems like 444 and 666 are just carriers, connecting us executors and managers.
"As for the so-called manager, I don't think it's the creator. It's the program established by the creator that effectively allocates tasks, conducts analysis and data processing. The creator is the developer and may not be involved in directly managing or allocating us."
She paused, then continued, "It's the Administrator who decides which world the tasker will be assigned to. And because the Administrator is merely a program set by the Creator, it uses its standards to determine which world we'll be assigned to. Because its judgment is rather mechanical, even if we've been assigned to the same world multiple times and it hasn't achieved its goal, it will still assign us the same world the next time."
The first management system put them in the same world to achieve a purpose.
But the result was not achieved.
Therefore, when they are redistributed, they still need to enter the same world according to the standards, and the management system will mechanically put them into the same world again.
Anyone who personally manages so many worlds would know that putting them into the same world would not achieve the goal.
Mo Tianwen was obviously a little surprised. He paused holding the water cup and looked at her: "Have you guessed the reason why we entered the same world?"
Bai Zhi chuckled: "There's no need to guess. As long as we know the Creator's purpose, we can immediately understand the purpose of sending the tasker to the same world."
Although 444 warned himself to remain calm, he couldn't help but ask eagerly, "What's the purpose?"
Bai Zhi raised the corner of her mouth and sneered: "Points, for the so-called points."
444 was stunned.
Mo Tianwen took a deep breath. "I've traveled through countless worlds to learn this secret, and you've actually known it in such a short time..."
Bai Zhi looked at the teacup, suppressing the emotions in her eyes——
"After I finished my first world, I received points. Before I knew what they meant, I wasn't planning on using them. Later, I discovered that you, number one on the leaderboard, hadn't used any of them, so I decided against using them.
"After experiencing so many worlds, I've always had two questions. First, where did the original owner go after the grading was completed? Why did he disappear almost immediately after the grading was completed?"
"What about the second question?" 444 continued to ask.
Bai Zhi looked at it and said, "My second question is, why would such a powerful creator create such a dumb system? You guys are completely clueless about anything outside of the mission! And you're so focused on encouraging the mission takers to spend their points. I don't think you're aware of this either."
444 was shocked.
Bai Zhi had mentioned these questions before, especially the second doubt, which made her think about it for a long time.
But she didn't give it an answer at that time. Today, will it finally know?
Under the tense gazes of 444 and 666, Bai Zhi said calmly—
“After the world of consciousness and the world just now, I finally became completely certain—integral is consciousness.
"The Creator's goal is to plunder consciousness. Therefore, after the original owner was scored, the contract with the system took effect. The consciousness was immediately devoured by us and completely disappeared from all worlds, with no more reincarnation!
"This devouring is a direct operation of the system space, and we are not aware of it. And the reason why systems like 444 are not smart and only know how to encourage us to spend points is clear, isn't it?"
As carriers, 444 and 666 certainly don’t need to be smart!
Make them smart, let them know a lot of information, do you want them to help the tasker discover the truth?
They only need to encourage the tasker to "consume" and actively transfer their consciousness to the Creator.
Bai Zhi's lips curled up, her gold-rimmed glasses gleaming coldly: "By the way, letting the taskers enter the same world is to make us enemies and consume points."
Those who have this "honor" are probably strong people.
They are so powerful that there are almost no rivals against them in the mission world, and their points are consumed too slowly.
But if powerful taskers are put into the same task, and they happen to be enemies, when they fight each other, won’t they need a “golden finger” and consume points?
Whether it's Ye Baizhi and Jiang Cheng's son Jiang Tian, or the Demon Cult leader Sang Baizhi and the Demon King Jinlong, or the little princess of the end-time human world and the zombie king...
They are naturally hostile to each other and should fight each other under normal circumstances.
Unfortunately, no one expected that the devil Baizhi and the super king Mo Tianwen would meet. Each world lived in harmony, and Mo Tianwen became a follower and successor, completing the tasks very well.
