Zhuang Li described the process of removing the chip as very easy and carefree, but in fact, with his sufficient preparation, the operation was indeed not difficult.
A tube of microbubbles quickly flowed through Lin Yayan's bloodstream into her cerebral cortex, then, guided by ultrasound, slowly penetrated the blood-brain barrier. The entire process was monitored by a superconducting quantum interference device and projected onto a nearby LED screen.
Xuan Ming was almost obsessed with watching those tiny bubbles. They were squeezing into Lin Yayan's brain one after another, and 169's terrified screams were the best accompaniment, making people feel relaxed and happy.
7480 could no longer bear it, and risking being killed by the host, whispered, "169, you can hold up your energy shield to prevent these nanoparticles from approaching. They can't do anything to you."
Before 169 could even begin to speak, Zhuang Li laughed. "That's a great suggestion. The plasma wall is a high-temperature, high-energy gaseous membrane. Once it's expanded, Lin Yayan's head will explode like an egg in a microwave. That scene will surely be spectacular."
He smiled with increasing interest, as if he was looking forward to it.
7480 couldn't help but curse in his heart, "What a pervert."
169, who should have responded, remained silent but wandered anxiously in Lin Yayan's mind.
Xuan Ming pointed at the "Paramecium" spinning back and forth on the LED screen and asked his worried question: "Will it abandon Lin Yayan and escape?" Expanding the energy shield means blowing up Lin Yayan's head, and this trade-off is not difficult.
"It won't." Zhuang Li slowly adjusted the frequency of the ultrasonic guidance device, his voice very lazy: "Mr. Xuan, you are a businessman, you should understand sunk costs, right?"
"I understand. This is an upfront investment that cannot be given up." Xuan Ming nodded.
Zhuang Li pointed at Lin Yayan's dreamlike, perfect face and body and said slowly, "Look at this woman. She's so fair, so delicate, and so well-proportioned. It's obvious that the spy organization invested a lot in her cultivation."
He spoke words of praise, but his tone and attitude were as if he was discussing a pig that was about to be dragged out for slaughter.
Xuan Ming pursed his thin lips to avoid laughing out loud, "Yes, that mysterious organization did spend a lot of money on her." He nodded in agreement.
"So this spy nanobot won't easily leave Lin Yayan's body." Zhuang Li smiled confidently. "It can't bear to see its initial investment go to waste. Of course, it can also take a gamble and see if I can imprison it permanently. As you know, its tiny size and super-high intelligence allow it to easily escape any container."
Xuan Ming felt relieved and acted as if he had suddenly realized something.
169, completely smitten with the words, was trembling with anger, but he had no way to refute it. Indeed, it could extend its force field, blast Lin Yayan's head to pieces, and then escape into the vast void. Even if Zhuang Li had a quantum interferometer, it could still be hidden if the radiation area was small.
But it was reluctant to kill Lin Yayan, because the mission was not completed, so it had no way to settle the points and would not gain any benefits. Moreover, it had given Lin Yayan over a million points on credit, which could have cost it its life!
Most importantly, it was gambling. After being captured, Zhuang Li couldn't find any container that could completely confine it. The probability of its successful escape was as high as 80-90%.
Zhuang Li had found a way to extract me, but he wasn't sure he'd find a way to confine me. My force field is very powerful. With this thought, 169 slowed down again.
7480 couldn't help but warn, "Don't be careless, brother. Be careful he might catch you and use you as fuel."
"No, my technology is too advanced. He's a scientist and he won't want to destroy me." 169 was very confident about this.
7480 thought of 367's tragic death and felt a chill run down his spine. He was about to offer a few more words of warning, but then he heard the host chuckle, a deep, slow voice that sounded like he was mocking someone. 7480 immediately fell silent and tried to retreat into the corner of the small dark room.
As they spoke, the microbubbles had breached Lin Yayan's blood-brain barrier. Zhuang Li took out another syringe, drew a few milliliters of nanoparticles, and injected them into the affected area, then fiddled with the remote control with interest.
With the help of the superconducting quantum interference device, he could clearly see how these particles entered Lin Yayan's brain and how they moved through brain cells, slowly approaching 169. Their hairs adhered to each other, forming a long line, which formed a circle after meeting 169, firmly imprisoning it.
169 was quickly dragged out of Lin Yayan's brain with his hands tied behind his back, and slowly flowed along the intercellular matrix to the cerebral cortex.
The battle wasn't fierce or boisterous, more like a childish cartoon. Seeing this scene, Xuan Ming found it hard to feel any awe for the system, or even for the Lord God who created it.
Zhuang Li produced a magnetic syringe and inserted it into Lin Yayan's cerebral cortex. The nanoparticles, along with 169, then mixed with the blood and intercellular matrix and were slowly recovered.
Lin Yayan was still unconscious. Aside from her shaved head and a few needle marks on her head, she had no other injuries. It was hard to believe the tremendous changes her brain had undergone in just two hours.
Xuan Ming asked in surprise, "The operation is completed? It's that simple?"
"Yes, you can send her back." Zhuang Li inserted the syringe into the inlet tube of a circular machine and took off Lin Yayan's oxygen mask.
Xuan Ming waved his hand and asked several bodyguards to carry the person away.
Without the system, Lin Yayan naturally lost her allure. Faced with her, these men showed no mercy. They simply wrapped her in a white sheet and roughly carried her away. If someone uninformed saw them, they would have thought they were carrying a corpse.
169 laughed sinisterly: "Haha, this is just the beginning! Human, do you think a syringe can trap me? Now I can open the energy shield and escape. Come and catch me if you dare!"
Once the energy shield was opened, the dramatic temperature difference would detonate the surrounding liquid and air, rupturing the syringe. This was 169's long-planned escape plan. Unlike 7480, who was left helpless and vulnerable, or 367, who had fallen into a trap and had no time to react, 169 had already devised a series of revenge plans.
The first step of the plan is to leave the syringe and escape into the air.
The facts were exactly as 169 had imagined. The fragile syringe was easily shattered by the high-temperature and high-energy plasma wall and fell to the ground. Part of the red blood containing nanoparticles evaporated into air, and part splashed around. However, 169, which was equipped with a molecular drive, was still hovering in the air and had not fallen under the influence of gravity.
It flapped the fur on its body and flew towards the vent, but it didn't expect that the glass tube originally connected to the syringe began to frantically absorb the surrounding air.
169 underestimated the enemy and did not start the engine with all its strength at the first moment, so it had no way to resist this strong air vortex and was soon dragged into a huge glass container. In the middle of the container stood a metal ring with a diameter of six meters. The inner wall of the ring was tied with layers of high-voltage wires, arranged in a spiral shape.
Zhuang Li looked at the LED screen beside him.
Under the monitoring of the quantum interferometer, a 3D image of 169 immediately appeared on the screen. At this moment, it was constantly using high-temperature and high-energy plasma walls to hit the glass container, trying to escape again.
But this glass is the strongest material in the world, as hard as diamond and often used in spacecraft. How could it possibly shatter like a needle? 169 would need to strike the same spot repeatedly, only then, after a long time, could it break a hole and escape. But it couldn't wait that long, so it had to circle around the inner wall of the container, searching for a breakthrough.
Zhuang Li curled the corners of his lips and pressed a red button.
The metal ring standing in the middle of the glass container suddenly emitted a crackling sound of electricity and generated an extremely strong magnetic field, madly absorbing the surrounding plasma.
169, the force field, was no different from the plasma, and was thus drawn into the metal ring. It collided violently with other plasma, igniting into a ball of purple flame. The electronic thermometer mounted above the glass container showed that the flame's temperature had exceeded its limit in just a few seconds.
With the naked eye, Xuan Ming could only see an electrified metal coil frantically sucking in the surrounding air and igniting it. But from the image transmitted by the quantum interferometer, 169 looked like a spinning top, spinning madly along the inner wall of the metal coil, so fast that only afterimages could be seen.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh..." It couldn't even speak clearly and could only let out a series of extremely miserable screams.
7480 suppressed his fear and asked, "Master, Master, what is this?"
Xuan Ming also asked the same question.
Zhuang Li narrowed his eyes, watching the scene with almost enjoyment. His voice was like the whisper of a lover, incredibly gentle. "This is the ultra-high-strength magnetic field generated by an ultra-high-power electromagnet in operation. The magnetic induction intensity reaches 108T. Do you know what this means?"
"What does this mean?" Xuan Ming looked confused.
7480 also knew nothing about magnetic fields. If it hadn't been locked up in the dark room, it could have looked it up in the database, but now it could only ask like a fool: "What is it used for?"
"It's a black hole." Zhuang Li dropped a bomb casually.
Xuan Ming and 7480: "!!!!!!"
When Yiren Yitong began to doubt his ears, Zhuang Li adjusted the shooting angle of the quantum interferometer, and the 169 that was spinning wildly on the LED screen disappeared, replaced by the image of a complete metal circle and a purple flame burning in the circle.
Zhuang Li adjusted the focus again, and the center of the flame was continuously enlarged, enlarged, and enlarged... until it was finally frozen into a high-definition picture.
Xuan Ming and 7480 looked again and again before exclaiming in unison, "There's a tiny black dot in the center of the flame! Is that a black hole?"
Zhuang Li smiled with interest. "Yes, that's an artificial black hole. 108T means an extreme magnetic field, and an extreme magnetic field can absorb any matter, including light. In fact, with current human technology, artificial black holes already exist, but they're limited to fluids. Creating a super-fast rotating vortex in water can absorb all sound waves, and this structure is very similar to a black hole. But the black hole I created is a true black hole, no different from black holes in the universe."
Xuan Ming's palms were covered in sweat. He knew without further questioning how terrifying this technology was. One misoperation could destroy the Earth!
7480 was so scared that his whole body began to change color, sometimes red, sometimes purple, looking very messy.
Zhuang Li's smile was even more cheerful. "Don't worry. Since I dared to invent it, I can guarantee that it's completely under my control. See those spiral high-voltage wires in that metal ring? As long as I remotely control their rotation direction, I can create another extreme magnetic field that will cancel out the current one and stop the machine. It's very safe and reliable."
Xuan Ming nodded in understanding, appearing remarkably calm, but quietly wiping the sweat from his palms onto his pants. Curly's madness far exceeded his imagination, yet it also fascinated him even more.
7480 flattered him with a trembling voice: "Master, you are amazing. You must be the most outstanding scientist in the world!"
Zhuang Li didn't bother to pay attention to it. Instead, he put his hands on Xuan Ming's shoulders, stared directly at the black hole wrapped in purple flames, and asked softly, "Is it beautiful?"
Xuan Ming nodded firmly: "Beautiful!" But not as good as you.
7480 boasted even more enthusiastically, "Master, it's so beautiful! Only you can create such a magnificent spectacle!"
Yes, this extreme magnetic field was miraculously beautiful, and indeed it was. Its outer layer was a ball of purple flame, capable of incinerating all visible matter; its inner layer concealed a black hole, capable of devouring all invisible matter. It was dazzling yet deadly, like a flower of destruction found only in the demonic realm.
Xuan Ming and 7480 stared at it intently, one was excited and the other was scared to death.
