Everyone was shocked.
Lu Wentian frowned and took a step forward. "What happened? Are you injured?"
"No." Bai Zhi shook her head. "Something happened to my body. I can only hold on for a month or two at most. I'll help you put order into this world."
She devoured the consciousness of that higher world. That consciousness was so powerful. Combined with her own powerful consciousness, this body could not support it at all!
And although she had devoured the creature's consciousness, it had not yet completely transformed into her own, and her brain was still collapsing and rebuilding all the time.
Lu Wentian's eyes were complicated, and he couldn't help but frown even tighter.
Even the big leaders and others were speechless.
——They all knew that the reason why Qiao Baizhi would not live long was definitely related to the previous battle with higher beings.
Humanity won, but Qiao Baizhi...
Everyone looked at Bai Zhi with respect.
However, Bai Zhi didn't care at all. Her mission in this world had been completed and she could leave at any time.
Staying a little longer also has its own purpose.
The collapse and reconstruction of the brain will take at least a month.
"Ms. Qiao, you are a hero of mankind. We have the best medical team in the world. We will definitely find a way to solve your health problem..." The leader looked worried.
Bai Zhi interrupted him: "No, the medical team can't solve my problem."
After saying that, she waved her hand and continued——
"There are still many 'gu' out there. Gu is a substance that comes from a higher world. I've explained before that it's meant to invigorate human consciousness. As long as they don't devour each other and eliminate their appetite and aggression, they're beneficial to Earth's creatures."
Everyone can imagine this.
Humans have become stronger, live longer, are healthier, and can even set fire and fly. If they didn't know the truth, many people would think this is evolution.
If the danger is eliminated and they are no longer raised Gu, then the substance "Gu" can indeed be used well by humans.
On Bai Zhi's pale face, a cold light shone from her gold-rimmed glasses.
"Now that the invaders are dead, leaving behind substances from a higher world, we can officially name this substance, spiritual energy. Eliminating dangerous Gu is equivalent to spiritual energy. Next, we will enter the era of true spiritual energy revival."
"Everyone, let me now show you how to transform this Gu into spiritual energy that is beneficial to humans!"
Humanity spent eight years in a scorched earth world, but in reality it was only eight days.
They were pulled into the conscious world on the sixth day, so in total, fourteen days had passed in this world.
Except for those who died in the first six days and could not be rescued, there were no more deaths after the sixth day.
During these fourteen days, people, animals and plants came out one after another. Humans gathered together, and with the country's defenses, many aggressive animals and plants were eliminated.
But even so, this world is still scary and dangerous under the influence of "Gu".
But this time, humans are different from those in the scorched earth world.
——They all fought side by side against the creatures of the higher world.
——They have died once and are no longer as stubborn as they were the first time.
——They understand the power of the country and know that they should unite and work together at this time.
So although it is dangerous, it is not chaotic.
On the third day after the invasion, the authorities issued two notices:
[1. Under the leadership of Ms. Qiao Baizhi, scientists from various countries have created a new substance that can eliminate the devouring desire and aggressiveness of all organisms affected by "gu". We officially named this new substance - Baizhi substance.
All major cities will release Angelica dahurica substances for 24 hours from 12:00 tonight to 12:00 tomorrow night. Since there are great individual differences in the absorption of the released substances, people in all countries are required to inject Angelica dahurica substances locally. At the same time, volunteers with high degrees of mutation will be recruited to resist attacks from other animals and plants that still exist.
Second, we will judge those who maliciously kill or eat people in the scorched earth world according to unified standards. At the same time, we have discovered that some individuals are extremely malicious toward others and must receive psychological education and counseling. The official trial results are announced as follows...
As soon as the notice was sent out, everyone started discussing it online——
"They actually developed a vaccine so quickly! Wow, scientists are amazing!"
"It's mainly Ms. Qiao Baizhi. She's truly amazing. She can even create a world of consciousness and kill higher life forms. Making a vaccine is no problem at all for her!"
"It's said that her health is very poor, she's vomiting blood, and she won't live long. But even so, she's still working hard in the laboratory for humanity, wanting to solve humanity's problems before she passes away..."
"I cried and was grateful. Humanity will never forget her."
…
Some people are also very concerned about another issue -
"Trial? What basis for trial? We didn't really kill anyone, it was all fake!"
"Yes, and at that time it was either you or me, killing was a form of self-preservation!"
"Oh my god, I can't believe my eyes. Who are those people in front of me? Are they murderers?"
"There's absolutely nothing wrong with the trial, okay? You can all see clearly that those who kill in self-protection are not held accountable, they're just given psychological education! Those who are actually sentenced are those who actively killed and ate people from the beginning, all kinds of disgusting things, okay?"
"I agree. If there's no trial, those who were killed and eaten may still be alive, but their memories are still there. If there's no accountability, how can their anger be appeased?"
"Those who say we shouldn't allow a trial are flawed. In my opinion, this trial was very fair."
"I agree. Why bother talking nonsense here? Get ready! The police are coming soon."
"I was 'eaten' by someone. I need psychological counseling to come to terms with that experience. I can't watch the people who tortured and murdered me go unpunished!"
…
Only a few people have objections to the trial, especially those who are full of malice, but basically everyone else has no objection.
Because there is video evidence, almost everything that happens to everyone on trial is recorded.
Do you have any comments?
Then I'll dig out your video and let you see for yourself what disgusting things you did!
Those who died without killing anyone are victims.
Those who are in danger if they don't kill, those who kill in self-defense, and those who fight between two people will not be tried, but will only receive psychological education.
Even if someone actively and maliciously kills someone in prison, they will not be sentenced like in the real world. After all, because of the environment and the influence of consciousness, many people cannot suppress the malice in their hearts.
If someone in prison saves or helps others and then kills someone, their sentence will be reduced based on the good deeds they have done...
In short, the result of this trial was acceptable to most people. It served as a small punishment but a great warning, appeased the "victims" and did not cause those being tried to feel overly resistant.
Of course, if the person is really too malicious, the sentence will be quite severe.
Liu Jingwei is it.
She lived too long, and too many people died at her hands.
and……
She took the initiative to kill "Qiao Baizhi" at the beginning. She clearly knew something, but she hid it from the country. She only cared about herself and hurt others.
Liu Jingwei was not surprised by the trial result and did not feel any resistance.
After injecting the angelica substance, her mind became clearer, and the guilt and self-blame in her heart had long since overwhelmed her.
The trial results have been announced for more than a month. During this period, all appeals have concluded. None of them were misjudged, wrongly convicted, or harshly sentenced. Their trial results are all corresponding to the evil they have done.
Next, they will serve their sentences.
Liu's father and mother hugged her and cried in frustration, their faces full of guilt and regret.
Liu Jingwei smiled and patted them: "Mom and Dad, take care of yourselves. Although my sentence is long, I am quite capable. As long as I continue to help the country and receive a good education in prison, I will get out."
"Jingwei..." Aunt Liu's voice was choked with sobs.
Liu Jingwei: "Mom, it's really okay. It's really good to be able to live well and soberly without having to worry."
She smiled sincerely, "In the scorched earth world, I was too selfish and too bad. Now I understand a lot of things and know how wrong I was. I should accept reform."
She used to be such a kind and gentle person.
A rebirth made her selfish and full of malice, and she really regretted it now.
Soon, someone knocked on the door.
Mr. and Mrs. Liu's expressions changed.
"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving. You must take good care of yourself."
After a pause, she added, "Please apologize to Mr. and Mrs. Qiao for me..."
After saying that, she stood up, opened the door, and was taken away by the police.
Liu's father and mother hugged each other and cried.
——They made a mistake, and this is the price they have to pay.
Liu Jingwei thought she would go straight to prison, but she didn't expect them to take her to the Academy of Sciences.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly had an answer.
——She was going to meet the person she was afraid of and felt guilty about.
Sure enough, Qiao Baizhi, with a pale face, was sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed out by General Lu Wentian. She stopped in front of her with an expressionless face.
Everyone else retreated, leaving the two of them alone.
Liu Jingwei opened her mouth but no words came out.
——What did Qiao Baizhi want to see her for? Did she want to meet the person who "killed" her?
Liu Jingwei smiled bitterly.
She was such a disgusting person. To survive, she killed Xiao Qiao and even her childhood friend who clearly posed no threat to her...
At this moment, she felt full of guilt towards this childhood friend.
However, Bai Zhi directly asked: "Can you cooperate with me in an experiment?"
"Ah?" Liu Jingwei was stunned.
Bai Zhi looked at her and said calmly, "You are reborn. I am very curious about your rebirth, and therefore have some doubts."
Liu Jingwei's expression was completely broken.
She actually knew she was reborn!!
That’s right, Qiao Baizhi, with her evolved brain, her brain can deal with creatures from the higher world, let alone see through her, an ordinary person who was reborn?
After a while, she slowly said, "Okay..."
So soon, Liu Jingwei was lying in Qiao Baizhi's laboratory.
She felt like she had a good sleep. When she opened her eyes, she didn't feel any discomfort. Her mind went blank for a moment before she remembered where she was.
She sat up.
Bai Zhi was sitting next to the computer, operating three computers at the same time. Lu Wentian, a general, stood beside her, like a bodyguard, guarding her safety.
"Ms. Qiao." Liu Jingwei spoke softly.
They grew up together, but for some reason, she always felt uneasy when facing the current Qiao Baizhi. It was not only because she "killed" her, but also because... Qiao Baizhi's current aura was so powerful.
Even though her face was pale and she was weak, she was still the powerful Ms. Qiao.
"It's been three days, you should rest." Lu Wentian said.
Bai Zhi shook her head: "No need."
Then, she looked at Liu Jingwei and asked her: "Do you have any special feelings before and after your rebirth?"
Liu Jingwei was stunned.
After thinking for a moment, she shook her head. "No, I died in the fifth year of the Spiritual Energy Revival Era in my previous life. At that time, our family was targeted. In order to save my life, we targeted Xiao Qiao. Because Xiao Qiao refused to eat the food we drugged, we started a fight..."
She felt a little guilty, but she still said seriously, "I accidentally killed you. Everyone in my family was terrified. Later, Xiao Qiao rioted and killed us all. After that, I knew nothing. When I opened my eyes, I found myself on the third day of the spiritual energy revival."
Bai Zhi touched her chin, a thought flashing in her eyes. She said, "Did you know? Your consciousness is infected with Gu. It's not the Gu of today, but more like the Gu from a long, long time ago. In other words, you brought your consciousness from your previous life into this life."
She had a Gu worm in her mind in her previous life, so the Gu in her consciousness in this life was from a long, long time ago.
Liu Jingwei looked at her blankly, her eyes confused.
Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow: "So, maybe you are not as bad as you think."
Gu can make people full of devouring desire and aggressiveness, that is to say, Gu can subtly make people "bad". Liu Jingwei, who had Gu in her consciousness for several years, was reborn, and the situation was quite serious at the beginning.
So she will be the final winner, so she will be selfish and malicious towards others from the beginning.
After hearing this, Liu Jingwei was stunned for a long time.
It was not until Bai Zhi had left the laboratory for a long time that she hugged her legs and burst into tears.
While crying, I couldn't help but smile.
Fortunately, she is not as disgusting as I imagined.
It’s great that she doesn’t have to hate and despise herself anymore.
——She is not that bad, so she can become good again, right?
Lu Wentian pushed Bai Zhi out.
He was as calm as water and couldn't help but say, "You should pay attention to rest. Your body is in pain now."
"It's okay, I like to discover the truth." Bai Zhi said softly.
"So what did you find?" Lu Wentian frowned. "Liu Jingwei doesn't have any serious problems. She just regained consciousness due to a mistake."
Bai Zhi smiled: "Wrong? Why is it wrong?"
"Cough cough!" She coughed violently a few times, and her head felt extremely swollen and painful, but she still endured it.
Lu Wentian quickly poured her a glass of water, then patted her on the back and looked at her with concern.
Bai Zhi let go of her hand, and the handkerchief was covered in blood. Lu Wentian's eyes changed slightly, but she didn't care at all. She just took the water and drank two sips.
Her gold-rimmed glasses shone with a cold light, her eyes were full of meaning, and her voice was filled with laughter.
"Why is there rebirth? Because of a mistake, because of a bug, a...a bug in the existence of a powerful being, and also a loophole in a powerful being."
Her smile was so meaningful and her eyes gradually became fanatical.
Lu Wentian didn't say anything.
After a while, Bai Zhi put away the enthusiasm in her eyes and took a deep breath——
"Call my parents over. I'm leaving this world. I've discovered all the truths and found a solution. It's time to end everything."
Lu Wentian still didn't speak. After a while, he softly replied, "Yeah."
The voice sounded very calm, yet it seemed as if all the surging emotions were suppressed under this single word.
Ms. Qiao Baizhi passed away!
She solved all the hidden dangers in this world. The mutated plants and animals all became emotionally stable and no longer attacked people. The angelica substance stabilized the Gu, and the Gu was officially renamed spiritual energy.
Through photosynthesis, the mutated plants will produce a gentle aura under the action of angelica substances.
Gentle spiritual energy lingers on the earth all year round, slowly changing the human body.
——They are evolving, but they have no desire to devour and no aggressiveness. Devouring has no effect on them.
Aura has become a product of the new world.
The true era of spiritual energy revival has just arrived.
And all this is because of Qiao Baizhi.
She changed their nightmare, prevented destruction, and created a new life. She was an important turning point in human history, an existence that will be recorded in history and remembered forever.
——Her appearance was short but brilliant.
She left behind many precious notes and records. Under her guidance, scientists have gained a preliminary understanding of consciousness. It may take them hundreds or even thousands of years to catch up with her.
But as long as they keep making progress, one day they will discover the secret of consciousness!
On the day she left, the whole world designated this day as a memorial day, to commemorate Qiao Baizhi and the scorched earth world that was destroyed in their place.
The era of true spiritual revival has arrived, and this day is also regarded as the dividing point between the old and new centuries.
The new century is called——
Angelica Century.
On this day, flags were flown at half-mast around the world, and people from all countries spontaneously mourned her.
They were filled with grief and regret from the bottom of their hearts. If she were still alive, how much change would she have brought to mankind?
Her death was also because of humanity, she was a hero.
People from all over the world bid her farewell, and a senior leader personally presided over the farewell ceremony. Qiao's father and mother had red and swollen eyes, but there was pride and pride in their eyes.
——Their daughter is their eternal pride.
The country should give them the best treatment and support them on behalf of Baizhi.
But Qiao's father and mother did not agree.
"Xiaozhi, you will still be our daughter in the next life."
"We are so proud of you."
On the tombstone, Qiao Baizhi looked at them with a smile.
Qiao's father and mother wiped away their tears and touched the head of little Qiao with golden hair.
Baizhi and 444 left the mission world.
444 was furious: "Master, was what you said before true? Because you devoured the consciousness of higher beings, your consciousness has become extremely powerful. An ordinary person's body can't withstand it?"
Bai Zhi nodded: "Yes."
She took a deep breath, a look of enjoyment on her face.
She is conscious now and does not have to suffer the discomfort that the original owner's body could not bear. Of course, she is very comfortable.
The ball of light grabbed his head and said angrily: "Ahhh, ordinary people can't bear it, then how can we complete the mission in the future? Master! What should we do!"
It's about to collapse.
The original owner's problem is the same problem that all future hosts will have. If it is not solved, then Bai Zhi will only have a short time to complete each mission?
Moreover, because the consciousness is too vast, the body cannot bear it and will feel very uncomfortable...
444 wanted to grab Baizhi and shake her hard, asking her what she was thinking!
But when he saw her faintly oppressive consciousness, he dared not say anything and gave in.
——Her consciousness is so powerful now that even if it is a system, she can really destroy it with just a thought!
444 felt the immense pressure next to such a massive consciousness and trembled.
Thinking of the problems they were facing, it sighed and said weakly, "Forget it, forget it. I'll summon the mall and see if there's anything I can do to help you. Otherwise, even if we complete the mission, she'll die as soon as we enter the original owner's body..."
As it said that, it summoned the mall to search for something useful.
However, 444 micro-pause.
"Huh? Where's the mall?" 444 found that he couldn't summon the mall.
It scratched its head and said, "Strange, why can't I summon the mall? Should I try to summon the original owner?"
The original owner was not summoned out either.
"Rankings?"
Still not summoned.
"What's going on?" 444 was dumbfounded.
This has never happened before.
Beside it, Bai Zhi looked at it and said in a faint voice: "444, don't you find anything wrong?"
"What's wrong?" 444 looked bewildered. "That's how it's summoned. In the system space, just a thought can summon..."
Bai Zhi raised her hand to push up her gold-rimmed glasses and smiled——
"No, 444, let me introduce you, this is Bai Zhi Kong Jian."
