Chapter 240 The Body
Xin Que stood before layers upon layers of electronic prisons.
The woman's atrophied body was in a heavily guarded prison.
"The vital signs of the serious offender Xin Que are still stable and he can withstand a period of interrogation."
The regulator reported this to her.
"Is that so?" Her expression was calm, revealing no flaw. "Then her supervisory level will remain unchanged and there is no need to make any changes."
The regulator immediately nodded in agreement.
Given your current physical condition, basic treatment is simply not enough to save you... unless you switch to high-level treatment throughout the entire course of treatment.
Furthermore, advanced treatments also require time.
Cheng Zheng's voice was somber. "Wen Jingchen's body is still having a rejection reaction. Can you still hold on?"
Xin Que's voice remained calm, "First, let's figure out a way to swap my body out of the electronic prison, then we'll talk about the rest."
Cheng Zheng fell silent.
“Don’t worry about me,” Xin Que said. “Go do what I told you to do before, and don’t mess up the plan.”
A short electronic notification sound came, and Cheng Zheng severed the connection between his consciousness channel and Xin Que.
Xin Que met Feng Caijun again.
Their positions have reversed, and now Feng Caijun is a prisoner under house arrest in his office.
Xin Que had no desire to communicate with him; she had only come to check if there were any loopholes in the imprisonment.
After passing through offices, control rooms, and countless other people, Xin Que finally returned to the warden's office.
The door slowly closed.
Xin Que's upright back bent down.
[Wen Jingchen] held onto the edge of the table and slowly knelt down on the thick carpet in the office without making a sound.
Thick blood seeped through the gaps between his fingers covering his mouth, seeping into the tissue and quickly oxidizing and changing color.
Xin Que's vision became increasingly shaky and unstable, sometimes blurry and sometimes clear.
The rejection reaction caused by forcibly occupying Wen Jingchen's body is getting more and more serious.
In addition, the miniature bomb that Huo Fenglin's uncle implanted in her body to prevent her from betraying him was also a huge burden.
[Standard Time 11:28 AM, August 14]
There were less than two and a half days left until the three-day ultimatum he issued.
Xin Que calmly destroyed the blood-stained tissues, then stood in front of the mirror with an air of composure, carefully wiping away the bloodstains on her face.
The man's figure in the mirror returned to its upright posture.
...
King Equality stands before the statue of God.
His expression was solemn as he watched the ruined city being reassembled like a Rubik's Cube. He quickly switched modules to coordinate with Luo Huayi's attack.
The thorns, imbued with the hellish authority of the Five Senses King, relentlessly lashed out again and again.
“The abandoned interrogation plan was completely at his beck and call.”
King Yama frowned and asked, "Was it an administrator's oversight in deleting his central role privileges, or did he tamper with the interrogation plan?"
King Pingdeng glanced back at Huo Fenglin, who was being protected in a safe area by King Chujiang and King Songdi.
"King Yama, bring King Song here." King Pingdeng said coldly, "The administrator still hasn't restored the connection, we can't drag this out any longer."
King Yama nodded slightly, and his figure vanished from King Pingdeng's side in an instant.
Emperor Song and King Yama switched places, with Emperor Song appearing beside King Pingdeng.
"Emperor Song, let the Black Rope Fire Hell be combined with the Avici Hell!"
King Equality roared, and his massive body disintegrated into a mass of data, merging into the statue standing in mid-air behind him.
In a few breaths, the majestic statue wearing a square crown and with a long beard let out a deafening roar. The hands that had been holding the flute under the sleeves of the robe gradually withdrew from the chest, and with an overwhelming pressure that mortals could not bear, it swept towards Luo Huayi and his ruined city.
The human form of the Song emperor vanished simultaneously, and a towering statue, as tall as the statue of King Peace, broke through the clouds, bending down and glaring angrily at the location of the ants.
The infernal black rope that crushed the city transformed into roaring flames that stretched across the entire sky.
The sea of fire burned the sky, carrying a heatwave strong enough to scorch the entire world and even burn the air to ashes, which then clung to the infinitely murderous Avici Hell and crushed down upon it.
Luo Huayi's figure disappeared into the ruined city, which was constantly switching modules, seemingly trying to avoid this deadly attack.
However, the manner in which King Pingdeng and King Songdi acted clearly indicated their intention to completely destroy the city, along with Luo Huayi.
Life or death hangs in the balance.
Just when King Pingdeng and King Song thought they were about to end this farce, the actions of the four AIs suddenly froze for a moment. Their originally smooth attack movements seemed to have been paused, and the attacks hung in the air, failing to land on Luo Huayi as expected.
The lag only lasted a few seconds.
But in those few short seconds, a bridge was erected out of thin air in the city controlled by Luo Huayi.
Countless bricks, stones, and tiles shot forward in a straight line, like arrows released from a bow. Yet, these seemingly chaotic bricks, stones, and tiles were arranged in an orderly fashion along the predetermined route to form the shape of the bridge surface.
The destination of this "bridge" is Huo Fenglin, who is being protected by the AI in charge.
Huo Fenglin's pupils dilated slightly.
His movements seemed to be affected by this sudden time lapse, and his body reacted a few beats slower.
He couldn't see whose figure landed on the bridge that had appeared out of nowhere.
"Thud." The sound of the blade piercing flesh was particularly jarring.
All he needed to know was that when the lag that was affecting the statue disappeared, he had already been pierced through the chest by two military knives, one in front and one behind.
Perhaps because the most feared death had arrived, Huo Fenglin's cautiousness suddenly vanished at this moment.
He could guess that the military knife behind him came from the underlying program 01.
But this one in front of me...
Huo Fenglin's cheek twitched twice.
He stared blankly at the sinister-looking man in front of him, as if trying to bore a hole through him.
Huo Fenglin's lips trembled, and blood flowed uncontrollably from his mouth.
"Who are you?"
Cheng Zheng forcefully plunged the blade of his scalpel into Huo Fenglin's chest, his voice sarcastic, "Of course, the noble young master of the Huo family has never seen me before..."
Apart from Xin Que and the undercover agents and assassins who had used him, who among the upper echelons of the Huo family had ever seen him?
...
"Xin Que betrayed the Huo family and did not assassinate Lu Wei as originally planned."
"She tried to arrange for the auxiliary system 1001 to return to the Huo family and distort the truth, but we intercepted her on the spot."
The earring passed through the hands of numerous undercover agents before finally being escorted back to the Huo family.
"Disassemble 1001 and thoroughly inspect it. Xin Que has definitely hidden a lot of information that we have overlooked in this system... We can't let her affect the young master's plans."
"Did you see the message from the reconnaissance department? Xin Que, having nowhere to run, deliberately detonated herself, taking the captain who was capturing her with her..."
"What about that auxiliary system we used for disassembly and inspection? Is it useless now? Anyway, it's such an old model that it's been outdated for so long, there's no value in recycling it..."
"Approval of the mandatory scrapping application."
"Just throw it in the garbage station and have it shredded."
"Um."
When chaos and turmoil swept through the Huo family mansion, everyone's attention was no longer focused on these unimportant matters.
"Cheng Zheng".
The woman's emotionless voice, in stark contrast to the panic of the others, came from the deserted garbage dump.
The dimly lit mechanical vehicle lay amidst a pile of ruins.
[...]
Its language expression module has been corrupted.
“It’s alright,” she said calmly, as if she knew what she was thinking. “The Huo family members have all been drugged by their infighting and are too busy taking care of themselves to care about us.
"Anyway, they don't have time to deal with this, so just pick a new vessel for yourself."
