Chapter 238: On the Causes and Aftermath
Each visit by the Supreme Intelligence puzzled System 7440.
I can't figure out why it was arranged this way.
"Why put all three of them in this world?" 7440 asked, "And Shen Yutong, who was originally under System 9003, has now taken over here as well. What exactly is going on...?"
A void image of the universe appeared in the system space, with a pair of eyes quietly watching the little white ball 7440.
“9003 crashed…” The eyes blinked, as if they were talking about something trivial.
"It crashed? What does that mean? Is 9003 no longer usable?"
"Indeed, almost all the time travelers induced by 9003 embarked on a path of mutual slaughter. We believe that the ideas and values it spread to the time travelers are very problematic, so we eliminated it..."
These words sent a chill down Number 7440's spine; the fear of death was clearer than ever before.
"But this is the first time two time travelers have shared a single system... I'm worried..."
"You don't need to worry, they won't meet in space." The Supreme Intelligence has already made thorough preparations for this.
"So what is my mission?" System 7440 asked with some concern.
Those eyes flickered, and instead of answering it directly, they posed another question: "Don't you think those three are special?"
"Lu He, Xia Lan, Shen Yutong?"
“Not bad,” the eyes curved, seemingly showing approval: “These three are very special. One of them would rather be erased himself than let other comic book characters in other worlds be killed.”
"Someone who is willing to risk his life time and time again to see someone important."
"An extremely self-centered and selfish individual who would kill any character or other time traveler, living only for himself."
“The three of them have all reached the pinnacle in their respective fields... Only by putting them together can we find research value.”
System 7440 silently wondered to itself, is that really all there is to it?
"Of course, there's also the most crucial point: there's an unbreakable bond between them, and the core of this bond is Lu He. She's really interesting; she even changed the original villain's personality."
Speaking of this, 7440 remembered the villain Li Cen, who is now a virtuous and wise ruler. Although she no longer remembers the plot where Lu He existed, her personality has changed in a very strange way.
What was once a ruthless and cold-blooded machine of power has now become capable of understanding human nature and skillfully applying both legal principles and human sentiment.
The original love-struck female lead is now alive as Nie Qing, and is wholeheartedly assisting Emperor Li Cen, making her a true career woman.
Xia Lan only broke free from her original timid nature after meeting Lu He.
And then there's Shen Yutong, the one who initially invaded Lu He's world and then met Lu He again; he's also a person with an extremely strong and self-consistent core.
Although she couldn't be changed, this person with no bottom line actually wavered like never before when facing Lu He.
"What you actually want to study is Lu He, right?" System 7440 understood the Supreme Intelligence's intention and naturally knew what it should do next.
"A research subject who can profoundly influence others is one in a million; maintain a long-term observation record. Oh, and after this world ends, erase all of Xia Lan's memories of Lu He..."
"Why!" System 7440 instinctively retorted to the Supreme Intelligence, then realized its mistake, was startled, and immediately corrected itself: "Yes!"
As the illusory image disappeared, the little white ball respectfully bid farewell to the supreme intelligence, and then fell into unprecedented depression.
It was originally enjoying shipping the couple, but now that it knows the ending is tragic, and this story is over, it has to break up the couple according to the instructions of the Supreme Wisdom, which makes it a little sad.
Little White Ball 7440 squatted on the ground, pondering how to smuggle in his own goods.
Suddenly, a thought struck me: That's right! The Supreme Intelligence only said to erase memories of Lu He, so why don't I just delete Lu He from Xia Lan's memories?
7440 became excited, admiring its own intelligence. This way, all of Xia Lan's experiences would be in her memory, only the characters would be blurred and she wouldn't be able to remember them!
In that case, it might be possible for her to recover her lost memories through her own efforts.
System 7440 was determined to do it this way.
As it was thinking, a sound knocked on the system's neurons.
"Is the system here?" The voice belonged to Shen Yutong.
"Yes, time traveler! Next, I will explain a series of precautions for changing the system..."
"No need, it doesn't matter who it is, I just want to know if my points are still valid?" Shen Yutong's first reaction upon receiving the notification to switch systems was whether all the points she had accumulated were still valid.
"Uh, sorry, due to the collapse of 9003, all the data over there can't be retrieved..." The Supreme Intelligence cleared all the data statistics of 9003, then cleared the points of all the shuttles in it and distributed them to other systems.
"Heh...whatever..." Shen Yutong let out a sarcastic laugh and stopped asking the system questions.
Can this group of people, who have already been turned into criminals by the 9003 program, still reform?
