Su Wan said, "We managed to get one from Patriarch Jiang's laboratory, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to bring him back."
Zhang Ying glanced at the defensive pistol hanging on her waist, then at her swollen calf, and said, "It must have been very dangerous for you to retrieve the defensive pistol. Why did you have to go into battle yourself? Didn't you ask Eagle King for help?"
Su Wan said, "It was quite dangerous. That person had a gun. I was afraid he would shoot Eagle. It was Miss Bai and I who worked together."
Zhang Ying opened her mouth as if to say something, but finally said, "Never mind, it's good that you're all alright. Let's not delay any longer, have her sit down. I'm going to start the extraction."
Su Wan arranged the chairs and came to Bai Zhiyi, saying, "Miss, come here and sit down."
"I won't sit," Bai Zhiyi continued tapping on the glass, saying, "I'm not tired."
Su Wan said, "His Highness will be here soon, and when he sees you like this, Miss..."
Before she could finish speaking, Bai Zhiyi immediately walked to the chair, sat down properly, and remained silent.
As Zhang Ying operated the device, she said, "The life factors in her body don't belong to her. I can extract them and transfer them to you without her consent. It will be done very quickly."
As the metal helmet descended and covered Bai Zhiyi's head, Su Wan asked, "What will happen to Miss Bai after the extraction is complete?"
Zhang Ying said, "Her ability to come back to life was originally saved by your life factors. After all of them were extracted, the remaining life factors were simply insufficient to guarantee her survival, so of course she would die."
After a pause, Zhang Ying said, "What, you can't bear to see her die?"
Su Wan said, "I don't want her to die. Can you save her?"
Zhang Ying pressed a button, glanced at the numbers flashing on the screen, and said to Su Wan, "Interesting. You can't even survive yourself, yet you have the leisure to care about other people's lives. Besides, she's already a dead person."
Su Wan said, "I know everything. It's all my fault, and I don't want anyone else to bear the burden."
Zhang Ying said, "I don't care, I just want to take Chu Ming back. Since you've made a request, I can make an exception and grant it. Her body is no longer usable, so I'll clone a new body for her, preserving the minimum amount of life factors necessary for her survival. She was originally from this world, and her life factors will gradually return to normal levels over time."
Su Wan was overjoyed and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I wanted. Will she still have her previous memories?"
A body can be replaced, but once memories are lost, that person is truly dead.
“It’s hard to say. I can’t control what she can remember,” Zhang Ying said. “She’s different from others; her consciousness comes almost entirely from you. But she shouldn’t forget what happened before she died, right? Shall we continue?”
“Do it.” Su Wan answered without hesitation, looking at Bai Zhiyi, “She has suffered too much. Even if she can remember a little bit of what she used to know, it will be good.”
"Do you have any other requests?" Zhang Ying smiled and quickly operated the control panel. "I feel like you still have something to say."
Su Wan said, "I've seen many flood victims trapped by the flood along the way. I want to help the floodwaters recede. Can you help me?"
Zhang Ying laughed and said, "Do you really think I'm a god? How am I supposed to retreat when the floodwaters are raging?"
Su Wan said, "Think of a way. If there's anyone in this world who can do this, it can only be you."
Zhang Ying looked left and right with a troubled expression, and finally fixed her gaze on the hibernation pod, saying, "The magic is definitely gone, but there is a scientific way to help you plug the breach in the dam."
Su Wan was secretly delighted. As long as the breach was plugged, no more water would rush downstream, and the floodwaters downstream would recede quickly.
She said to Zhang Ying, "This method is feasible, but how do we do it?"
Zhang Ying said, "The hibernation pod has a backup cryogenic generator. If you turn the power up to the maximum, it can instantly generate a temperature close to absolute zero, which can freeze the area within a radius of several hundred meters. You can adjust the power according to the size of the gap and drop this thing into the gap."
Su Wan said happily, "Great! Let's get started right away."
"No rush, stop making demands and finish what I care about most first."
Zhang Ying pressed a button on the control panel, and the metal helmet covering Bai Zhiyi's head slowly rose. Bai Zhiyi appeared to be asleep, her head drooping over her chest.
Su Wan stepped forward and touched Bai Zhiyi, only to find that she had already stopped breathing and her body was already cold.
“According to the cloning law, a new body can only be cloned after the original body dies. I have already extracted her consciousness,” Zhang Ying said to Su Wan. “Since I promised you, I will keep my word. Now it’s time to start extracting yours.”
Su Wan hesitated before looking up at the metal helmet hanging high above her head.
Before the helmet was removed, her life was full of hope; she might live to be eighty or ninety. Once the helmet was removed, she would only have six months left to live.
Unlike Bai Zhiyi, she couldn't use cloning to save herself.
Seeing her standing there in a daze, Zhang Ying urged, "Are you still hesitating at a time like this?"
Su Wan said, "I was prepared long ago. Faced with such a life-or-death matter, anyone would hesitate for a moment, right?"
Bai Zhiyi will regain her life, while she will experience the opposite.
Zhang Ying smiled, put the helmet over Su Wan's head, and said, "Didn't we already agree on this? You give me the life factor, and I'll give you Wei Jingzhuo in return."
After saying that, she pressed the button and turned her gaze to the screen.
Su Wan was initially plunged into darkness, then a flash of white light revealed her to be suspended in an endless space, with countless colorful rays of light weaving and intertwining around her. A cold, mechanical female voice rang out.
