Chapter 122 Chapter 122 [Dangerous Shortcut]
The moment the electric shock began, Lin Yimu lost consciousness due to the pain and lay motionless on the bed. If it weren't for his heaving chest and cold sweat on his forehead, one would have thought he was dead.
After a long while, Lin Yimu recovered from the pain and asked, "001, how many electric shocks are needed to achieve the effect you mentioned?"
Although Lin Yimu had learned about brain development before, this method could directly instill knowledge into his mind, similar to the ancient method of passing on skills. However, Lin Yimu only heard the system mention it once when he decided to accept it.
As for how many times he would have to go through electric shocks to reach the point where knowledge could be directly instilled into him, Lin Yimu was not quite sure. He asked this question not because he regretted it, but because he was really worried. If it lasted for a long time, he was really afraid that he would not be able to hold on. After all, the first level of electric shock was already so unbearable. Lin Yimu even felt that it was more painful than the punishment for failing to complete the previous task.
The virtual man in Lin Yimu's mind had been looking at him with a frown on his face after the electric shock ended. When he heard Lin Yimu's question and saw his expression gradually recovering, he was relieved and said, "Host, if you want to reach the level I mentioned before, you still need to endure nine days of electric shocks, and the level of electric shocks will get higher day by day. The last day will be the highest level of ten. If you can't bear it soberly, you will most likely become a fool. Are you sure you want to continue?" At the end, 001's expression became very serious, and even the look he gave Lin Yimu was full of seriousness.
Although it really wants the host to speed up the progress, it still sticks to its previous idea and does not want the host to take shortcuts, although this shortcut also requires the host to slowly comprehend the content.
However, 001 still hopes that the host can learn on his own. After all, learning requires experiencing the process, and this shortcut is really too dangerous.
Of course Lin Yimu could see that 001 didn't want him to continue with this method, but he also knew that 001 was just an auxiliary system, and there was a main system behind it that controlled it. Usually, the tasks assigned to him by 001 were very easy, but once he encountered a very difficult task, it was basically the main system that was causing trouble.
Just like before, he was asked to master all subjects, and now he has published an SCI journal paper in physics, and this time 001 suddenly became anxious, and even said that this is a shortcut that everyone would be tempted by.
Thinking of this, Lin Yimu smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "001, you should know that when you said this method, we already had no way out. No matter my own greed or the main system behind you, we will not be allowed to retreat."
001 lowered his eyebrows when he heard this. After a long while, he said unwillingly: "Host, you can actually learn slowly on your own. According to your current progress, although it is a bit slow, you can still catch up. You don't have to listen to the main system and accept this dangerous method."
Lin Yimu looked at 001 who was now wholeheartedly thinking about him. Although he seemed unreliable sometimes, he was much better than the mechanical feeling at the beginning. He even had the idea of disobeying orders for him. Lin Yimu actually liked 001 very much. Otherwise, even if he was very greedy, he would give up when he heard that he would become a fool.
But 001 is different to him after all.
001 is a friend to him, someone who accompanied him through the hardships of his previous life, and someone who knows where he came from, so that Lin Yimu will not be too lonely in this life of rebirth.
Although he looks fine on the surface, why did Lin Yimu study so hard after accepting the system even without 001's urging? In addition to wanting to change his own destiny and complete the task, he also wanted to keep himself busy so that he wouldn't have random thoughts in his free time.
Because sometimes when Lin Yimu looks at everything in the present, he feels that it is very unreal. He doesn’t even know why, but he has the illusion that he will return to his previous life when he wakes up.
Sometimes the feeling of weariness towards everything that welled up in his heart made Lin Yimu feel that everything was fake, and he even thought it would be better to die at that moment. It was only after seeing 001 in his mind that he felt that everything was real. Since then, he had no time to think about random things unless he kept himself busy.
Of course, Lin Yi Mu also knew that 001 would leave him one day, which 001 had mentioned before. So for his own sake, Lin Yi Mu also wanted to find something meaningful to do so as to adjust his mentality so as not to be at a loss when that day comes.
"001, what will you do if I accept this method?" After a thousand thoughts in his mind, Lin Yimu still asked this question that might not get a good answer.
001 fell silent when he heard the question, because he was just an auxiliary system split from the main system. If he didn't obey, he would most likely be taken back and transformed. Because he had a soft heart towards his host, he even regarded himself as a human being. He said that the way he got along with the host was a main-system relationship, but in fact they themselves knew very well that they became friends in the process of getting along.
Looking at the listless and silent 001, Lin Yimu already knew the answer. Instead, he stretched his stiff body and comforted him, "Don't think too much. This is my own choice. Don't you know that I am a selfish person? This choice is the best for me."
Upon hearing this, 001 curled his lips at Lin Yi Mu, obviously not believing what Lin Yi Mu said. After all, he and Lin Yi Mu had been together for two lifetimes. If he was really such a person, he would have been successful in the entertainment industry in his previous life, and there would be no chance for him to have any chance.
Looking at 001's expression, Lin Yimu didn't say anything. Since he had already made the decision, he would not regret it. As for whether it was true or false, it didn't matter at all.
"Okay, stop looking so sad. Although the electric shock is over today, there are still nine days to go. You might as well use this time to think of a way to keep me awake during the electric shock." Lin Yimu suggested in order to divert 001's attention.
Upon hearing this, 001 was no longer discouraged. Instead, he said eagerly, "Host, how about I play a song for you to wake you up when you receive the second-level electric shock tomorrow? This way you won't have the energy to care about the pain in your body."
Lin Yimu looked at the excited 001 with some suspicion and asked, "Is the music you play ok?"
The suspected 001 suddenly regained his previous lively appearance and said angrily: "Don't look down on Tong! I can also distinguish between beauty and ugliness and melodiousness! If you don't believe me, I'll play it for you tomorrow."
"Okay, okay, I'll wait. You should go find some nice songs first." Lin Yimu said with a smile.
001 snorted, "You wait!"
After 001 ran off to look for the song, Lin Yimu's originally calm expression immediately turned cold. In his heart, he was thinking about the main system behind 001. Was its existence dangerous to him? How could he disable or replace the main system's program with 001?
No matter what, Lin Yimu didn't like anything about himself, especially the fact that there was something in his brain that only gave him orders but had no obvious good or evil. 001 was also skinned by him in the past, and it was really not very smart, so he agreed to let it stay in his brain, even though he had no way to eliminate it.
Lin Yimu sighed helplessly, feeling that there were one problem after another around him, and that none of them could be solved with his current abilities. Relatively speaking, the problem of turbulence was relatively simple.
Thinking of this, Lin Yimu moved his body around and felt that he was not feeling unwell anywhere. Then he immediately started another data research. Although he was not needed at all due to the large-scale data screening, Lin Yimu still wanted to do more research.
Lin Yimu spent three days calculating data while enduring unbearable electric shocks. As for the problem of sticky data, Lin Yimu had no results for the time being. However, regarding what 001 had said about finding him a song to distract his attention, after 001 played a song called "Tension", Lin Yimu ruthlessly locked him up in a small dark room.
In the following days, because Lin Yi Mu lived in the same dormitory with Zhou Heyu, the time for receiving electric shocks was changed to night time. Every time, Lin Yi Mu relied on his own willpower to get through it.
Until the ninth day, when Lin Yimu was about to receive the ninth level electric shock, 001 was really worried, because Lin Yimu almost fainted in the middle of the eighth level electric shock the day before. This time, 001 was very worried whether Lin Yimu could hold on to the ninth level. After the ninth level, there was still the tenth level.
The pain of level 10 electric shock is no less than the pain a woman experiences when giving birth. Even interstellar people can't stand the pain and die when receiving level 10 electric shock punishment.
001 anxiously turned around a few times, repeatedly explaining the facts to Lin Yimu, and even said: "Why don't you just give up? The worst that can happen is that I will be recycled and transformed. As an auxiliary system split from the main system, I am also a part of him. He won't be too cruel to me."
Lin Yimu frowned when he heard this. He was very unhappy with what 001 said. His tone became firm and stiff. "No need. I said that this was my own choice. It has nothing to do with whether you are recycled or not. Since it is my choice, I can accept any consequences."
001 looked at Lin Yimu, whose expression suddenly turned cold and hard, and was so scared that he didn't dare to say anything more. He also knew that he couldn't persuade him at all, so he just listened to Lin Yimu's words reluctantly and started the ninth level of electric shock.
But at the moment the electric shock started, 001 couldn't help but cheat on Lin Yimu, even though the consequences would be serious for him.
