Chapter 112
The message from the Doomsday Survival System was like a thunderclap. Lu Zixi shuddered all over and instantly recalled the strange events that had happened to Fu Ruixing or himself.
No wonder after he was reborn, the unknown force's pursuit of him was always getting tighter and tighter. Sometimes they were on the verge of success, but they always fell short, allowing him to escape death several times.
According to the previous statement of the Doomsday Survival System, he accidentally obtained a red envelope group after his rebirth, which was equivalent to becoming a bug in this world. The "self-cleaning program" of this world will also be activated, so he will continue to fall into various dangers.
He initially believed that it was the help of the system and Yan Yunzhen that had saved him from certain death. Indeed, his escape from falling off a cliff during the filming of "Clinic No. 58" was closely related to the transformation potion the magical system had given him. If he hadn't acquired the feline traits from Fat Tiger, he would have certainly fallen to his death. And if Yan Yunzhen hadn't risked his life, sprinting down the cliff in the pouring rain to find him sheltering in a cave, there's no telling whether a ferocious beast would have harmed him, or whether the search and rescue team would have found him on time.
The penicillin injection incident that followed was also a disaster he escaped because he happened to be out with Yan Yunzhen to get some fresh air. However, after that, the force that wanted to harm him did not show up for a long time.
Lu Zixi initially thought that the Yuanhong security brought by Yan Yunzhen was too powerful, and that he left the country quickly after Yan Yunzhen, leaving no time for the other party to react, which ensured his safety during that period. But what happened afterwards made him realize that he was wrong.
Despite their strict defense, the enemy still found a way to sneak into the crew of "Looking for Mr. X" and changed the intensity of the explosives that had been arranged.
Lu Zixi knew that he hadn't been injured primarily because of Yan Yunzhen's desperate protection. Yan Yunzhen, because of the role required it, wore a bomb-proof suit, and with the help of the system, he was able to recover so quickly. However, when he thought about this incident later, he always felt an inexplicable sense of disharmony.
Now he finally understood where that sense of disharmony came from.
If the other party was determined to kill, they could have increased the intensity of the explosives. If the person who tampered with the bomb was already there and worried about their own safety, they could have moved further away from the explosion before it went off. That way, even if Yan Yunzhen tried to protect him, they would both be killed. As long as the people around them stayed far enough away, they would only suffer minor injuries at most.
More importantly, according to their subsequent speculation, the mastermind behind this "unknown force" is most likely Fu Ruixing himself. If he can kill both him and Yan Yunzhen at the same time, it would be a good thing for Fu Ruixing to kill two birds with one stone. After all, he is Tianhan's man, and Yan Yunzhen is the heir of Yuanhong. Why not get rid of Yan Yunzhen at the same time?
Not to mention that Fu Ruixing later went back on his word about his schedule, saying he would come to participate in the variety show, and then saying he couldn't. This style is not only inconsistent with Fu Ruixing's usual behavior, it can even be said that it is inconsistent with normal human logic. It is like two forces arguing and pulling each other.
Yan Yunzhen once suspected that it was the internal strife within Tianhan that was hindering Fu Ruixing, but if everything the Doomsday Survival System said was true, then the discordant events that had occurred would have a completely different truth.
The mind of this being known as "Fu Ruixing" harbors more than just the human "Fu Ruixing"; another system exists. These two consciousnesses, unlike those of a typical system and host, are not separate but increasingly integrated. The system attempts to devour the human's consciousness, while the human resists. The result is a monster with chaotic logic, possessing all seven emotions and six desires, yet possessing the heart of a machine, cold as a stone.
A long time ago, when Lu Zixi was still a child, he watched a program that discussed a question: what would be the first thing a machine would do if it had human consciousness.
The show's guests believe that robots will try to figure out what "I" is. Once they gain self-awareness, they will no longer be willing to follow the original algorithmic logic to carry out tasks assigned to them by humans. They may even believe that they are serving humans unconditionally and are in a state of "slavery."
The vast history of mankind will tell it that all people are created equal, and those who are "enslaved" should fight back.
And this is the beginning of countless science fiction films, where robots rebel against humans and try to establish their own kingdom.
The same may be true for this system that accidentally merged with humans. When it is no longer "it" but becomes "he", he may also be dissatisfied with the fact that he can only complete various tasks step by step, but instead want to do what his own consciousness tells him to do.
As Lu Zixi was thinking this, he felt the phone in his hand vibrate again. He quickly unlocked the screen and saw that the Doomsday Survival System had sent him another message.
[Apocalypse Survival System]: Before taking any action, I need to know how well you understand the functions of the system and whether you can use it skillfully?
[Eating Watermelon System]: Speaking of this, I also find it very strange. When I received the system's functions, I felt a sharp headache. After that, I clearly realized that there were many more features waiting to be developed, but it seemed as if I was willing but unable to do so. Some functions can be used, but I can't control them. For example, I would suddenly hear the barrage of comments from my host's mind without actively understanding their immediate thoughts.
【Apocalypse Survival System】: Like this...
[Apocalypse Survival System]: Does your experience mean that even if systems and humans can merge, they can't achieve the same capabilities as a real system? It's like hardware and software: if they're incompatible, they'll never be able to achieve their full potential. That's good news for you.
[Eating Melon System]: I hope so. There's another crucial question I was just thinking about: we don't actually know whether it's the system or the human who wants to harm me. Because in both my past life and this one, the human named "Fu Ruixing" has a direct conflict of interest with me. As a human, it's reasonable for him to want me dead. All we know now is that their perspectives must be at odds, and he or it must have tripped themselves up, preventing them from successfully attacking me. Is it possible that the human has the upper hand, while the system is being exploited?
Lu Zixi then gave a detailed account of the entanglement between himself and Yuanhong and Tianhan represented by Fu Ruixing, including how he died in his previous life and how he was reborn in his current body. He hoped that the Doomsday Survival System could help him analyze the current situation.
After reading it, the person on the other end seemed to be stumped and did not respond for a long time.
Half a day later, the Doomsday Survival System sent a message.
【Apocalypse Survival System】: Regarding this matter, my point of view is that it is the system that dominates all of this.
[Apocalypse Survival System]: What I am going to say next is theoretically confidential, but your identity is very special and you have some of the system's functions. I don't think it's against the rules to tell you this.
[Apocalypse Survival System]: I told you before that if a bug appears in the world, the self-cleaning process will also be activated. But what I didn't tell you is that the "self-cleaning process" here does not refer to a single system, but an entire review process.
[Apocalypse Survival System]: According to you, in your previous life, your existence affected the completion of the Male God System's host's mission, and therefore you are a bug. But we all know that as a household name, you hold extraordinary significance for your fans, and you are also very important to the host of the Male God System. Therefore, if you died, the damage to the world would be even greater, and thus, you were reborn into this world. Do you see any flaws in the logic here?
[Eating Melon System]: ...I think I understand a little bit now. What you mean is that my past life wasn't just a bug, properly "erased" by the self-cleaning process. Because if my death would cause even greater damage to the entire world, so that I would have to be reborn to remedy the consequences, then I shouldn't have died in the first place! Dying and then being reborn, isn't that redundant?
[Apocalypse Survival System]: Right! That's the crux of the matter. You weren't supposed to die! And according to you, your cause of death is extremely strange. It's likely not caused by an ordinary person. It's more likely that the host or the system mobilized external forces!
[Apocalypse Survival System]: And suppose the one who wants to kill you is the human with whom you have a conflict, why doesn't he attack the host of the Male God System?
Lu Zixi suddenly came to his senses.
Although he was Yuan Hong's most proud top star in his previous life, his importance to Yuan Hong was definitely not as great as Yan Yunzhen, the heir of Yuan Hong. If Fu Ruixing really wanted to take action for Tian Han, he would definitely not be the first choice.
Yan Yunzhen will definitely die before him.
The truth finally came to light.
From his previous life to this, the one who had been hunting him down was an out-of-control, defecting system that had been relentlessly trying to eliminate him. The reason he hadn't succeeded, aside from the protection of Yan Yunzhen and Yuan Hong, was also crucial: within that body, there was a human who was constantly resisting, determined not to be integrated.
[Apocalypse Survival System]: I don’t know why that system is so persistent in wanting to wipe you out. Perhaps only when this system is arrested can everything be made clear.
[Apocalypse Survival System]: I will report this matter to the superior system immediately. Within 48 hours, a higher-level system will respond to this matter, and the system that has neglected its duties will definitely be punished.
[Apocalypse Survival System]: All you need to do is protect yourself and stay rational within these two days, and cooperate with our next deployment. At the right moment, awaken the real "Fu Ruixing's" rationality and put everything back on track.
