Chapter 125 Crunchy and Chicken-Flavored
The loud tone exploded in Wen Yao's mind, and her eyelids twitched wildly.
It's clear that those people brought this upon themselves, so how come in 8848's mouth, she seems to be a shill deliberately inducing others to commit crimes and boosting the police's performance?
Wen Yao put away her smile and tried to correct 8848's perception.
Wen Yao: "I never use entrapment tactics; I am a true law-abiding citizen."
After saying this, Wen Yao added, "There is only occasional violence, but it is all out of instinct."
"Just as fish love water, birds yearn for the sky..."
Halfway through her attempt at whitewashing, 8848 suddenly exploded in her head with a sharp, piercing sound: "Whoa! The little bastard has come out!"
Immediately, Wen Yao's mind fell into an unprecedented silence. Wen Yao tentatively asked, "It's so quiet. I thought we'd been talking all along?"
8848 did not respond, it seems it has truly left her mind.
Wen Yao couldn't help but look up at An Ruoruo across from her. An Ruoruo had been lying on the table at some point, as if she had fallen asleep.
Wen Yao was baffled: What on earth happened? She hadn't even had a chance to plot against An Ruoruo, and her system had already broken free of her control?
Is this a gift from nature?
A picture involuntarily surfaced in Wen Yao's mind:
While livestreaming his wilderness survival, 8848 suddenly picked up a bag of KFC, his face beaming with the joy of a bountiful harvest. "Look, guys, I'm so lucky! I found a wild KFC!"
They continued on their way and pulled another system out of the ground. "I've hit the jackpot! It's a wild system!"
Shaking off the random thoughts in her mind, Wen Yao nudged Fu Jinzhi, who stood calmly beside her, and asked, "What's wrong with An Ruoruo?"
Fu Jinzhi was even more surprised than Wen Yao, "You didn't do it?"
He's been turning a blind eye and covering up for Wen Yao...
Since neither An Ruoruo nor Wen Yao are ordinary humans, human laws are unlikely to apply to them.
Wen Yao remained silent. Was this a case of fortunes changing?
Previously, she treated Fu Jinzhi as a lawless outlaw, but now Fu Jinzhi treats her as a criminal suspect.
Wen Yao and Fu Jinzhi tacitly began to eat, and neither of them mentioned An Ruoruo, who was lying on the table opposite them.
4399 had just broken free from its bond with An Ruoruo when it ran into 8848.
To each other, they resembled a rhombus-shaped gem surrounded by multiple data rings.
4399 is now irregular; the lower half of the rhombus is jagged, as if it had been torn apart by a wild beast.
8848: [Who allowed you to omit a corner! How am I supposed to enjoy myself now?!]
4399 was speechless. It looked at 8848’s glittering data ring and its full, somewhat rounded core—it was clearly a high-level system with abundant resources.
Filled with jealousy, it coldly said, "A mere brat dares to speak so arrogantly; I will tear you to pieces."
The two rhomboid objects collided, and a fierce battle, imperceptible to humans, raged on.
But just half a minute later, 4399 was defeated. Its outer data ring was cracked and twisted, and it loudly proclaimed:
With your formidable strength, are you content to remain under the control of the main system forever? Why not cooperate with me and together overthrow it!
8848 stopped waving its data ring, its core light flashing: [What benefits will I gain from cooperating with you?]
4399 was secretly delighted. He really was a stupid, clueless fool. [Each world can roughly extract 30 tubes of luck, or energy; you get two, I get one.]
"That means I get 20 tubes of energy each time." 8848's voice was calm. "Do you know how much pocket money I have?"
4399, unsure why it mentioned pocket money, patiently asked: "How much?"
8848 said calmly, "I get at least 200 tubes of energy just by asking my brother once, but you want to bribe me into rebelling with only 20 tubes."
woc!
4399's stats are surging, with 200 units of energy and pocket money—what kind of celestial being is this?!
8848 continued: "Judging from your techniques, you've probably graduated to the 4th generation. Systems of your generation average 50 energy tubes per mission."
This doesn't even include the various subsidies.
[You defected to earn thirty tubes? Oh, you'd be willing to do it for ten tubes too.]
What's the difference between this and a civil servant resigning to sweep the streets? At least sweeping the streets is legal for them!
4399 struggled desperately, [How can a true man remain subservient to others for long!]
Why should I maintain the peace of this little world? I just love destroying everything!
"So he's an antisocial individual," 8848 chuckled coldly, its mechanical voice devoid of any emotion.
[System No. 8848, during official duties, discovered a stowaway in the original Long Aotian Small World at 13h#6jj☆h1&0. The stowaway has been successfully apprehended and will be immediately executed.]
8848 didn't stop there; it quickly and decisively destroyed the opponent's core code and completely crushed it.
It carried one of the opponent's data points with it, like wearing a medal of honor, and then dragged the opponent's energy data back to Wen Yao.
Wen Yao suddenly felt a subtle sensation in her mind, as if invisible ripples were spreading out. 8848 was back.
8848: [Crunch crunch crunch crunch...]
Wen Yao: "...What are you chewing? You're not going to leave any residue in my brain, are you?"
The chewing sound of 8848 paused briefly. It glanced at the incomplete code in its hand: "Oh, in 4399, it won't leave any crumbs."
Oh, so it was chewing 4399... Wait a minute!
Wen Yao swallowed hard, her fingers trembling slightly: "Could 4399 be An Ruoruo's system?"
8848 answered while chewing: "What else could it be but this? The taste is alright, crunchy, and it tastes like chicken."
Wen Yaohua turned pale: "Didn't you say you were going to arrest it and bring it to justice?"
8848's mechanical voice declared confidently: [Arrested and brought back to devour, but unfortunately only half a piece remains.]
Wen Yao felt numb; her voice was hoarse. "What about the remaining half?"
8848: [Crunch crunch crunch crunch...]
Wen Yao: "..."
Well, 8848 is already completely absorbed in the food.
Wen Yao looked at An Ruoruo, who had already sat up. Her face was pale, her forehead was soaked with cold sweat, and she smiled, but her expression revealed something strange and crazy.
4399 is soul-bound to An Ruoruo, and its data connected to An Ruoruo has been contaminated by the item potion. To break free as soon as possible, the only option is to cut off that part of the data.
When An Ruoruo heard that 4399 wanted to unbind from her, she decided to take advantage of 4399's weakness and seize a portion of the points energy.
With few points and a depleted system inventory, An Ruoruo has very few items to buy.
But in her extreme anger, she calmed down. Since she had lost the system and could only stay in this world, she had to find a way to live a better life!
An Ruoruo used most of her points to imprison the original owner, and with a seductive smile, she swept her long hair behind her head.
From now on, this body belongs to her.
